Chapter 216 Dust to dust, earth to earth
Such a clear sense of fear.
The extremely strong, extremely cold trembling feeling wandered around, as if the cold liquid was inserted into the blood vessels - it was the cold from the inside out.
Laziness numbs the muscles of the whole body, while despair blocks thinking.
You can tell at a glance that it is the original deity of the Bones.
He just stood there and let the players use all their strength to force themselves to turn back—
Longjing Tea's pupils contracted slightly.
What caught my eye was the giant skeleton that looked three meters tall.
But it is completely different from the "slim and dry bones" that players saw when they first saw the skeleton male.
He was still wearing a long white cashmere cloak, a pure white triple crown on his head, and a golden crying faux face on his face. He was still wearing heavy white metal boots when he cried, and his hands were also wearing thick-leather gloves that reminded him of the bear's paw.
But at this moment, He opened His cloak to both sides.
The dead bone that was originally like a dead soul, as thin as a shadow, seemed to disappear at any time, was replaced by a heavy and majestic armor that was as unshakable as a mountain rock.
The crown on His head seemed a little old, and the mask on His face was the same, with some traces of dullness. And some scars were also revealed on His carefully maintained pure white armor.
It looks like a real paladin.
Not the undead lord who is the skeleton prince.
But the Paladin who died in a bloody battle with the undead—
So ironic.
"I recognize you..."
The old and low voice of the Skeleton Man rang under the golden mask: "Annan's servant..."
Perhaps because the inside of the armor was empty, a wonderful echo appeared.
Seeing that the skeleton man seemed to have not attacked them, Longjing Cha breathed a sigh of relief.
For a moment before, he thought that it was the wandering child who destroyed the ritual field of the skeleton man, so he came directly over and began to take revenge and guard the high ground...
"Don't worry. I saw that you did not destroy the peace of the dead..."
As if he had read Longjing Tea's thoughts, the skeleton looked at him with a faint voice and made a sigh.
Longjing Cha did not touch the skeleton male's gaze.
Because the crying mask did not leave holes that could reveal their eyes - it was not so much a mask, but rather a metal piece of metal that was built on the face, like a clown.
Seeing that the skeleton man did not attack them immediately, the players immediately became energetic.
...So, is this the yellow name NPC?
As long as you don't take the initiative to attack, you probably won't become an enemy, right?
That's great...
Longjing Tea breathed a deep sigh of relief.
He was in a panic just now and thought he was going to be beaten by the skeleton man...
Perhaps because this is actually the body of chocolate, or simply because the skeleton male does not feel strongly oppressed to animals. The first one to wake up from the shock was Dove in the form of a serval.
She walked to the side of the bone man and boldly surrounded his legs.
As chocolate grew up, Dove is now a big cat over half a meter tall - her body shape has brought about the increase in attributes brought by her body feedback, which is enough to easily hunt humans.
It can be said that three warriors of the same level may not be able to beat this cat.
But in front of the skeleton male who was twice the height of the Yaseran, Dove looked like an ordinary pet cat.
The skeleton man glanced at her and did not kick her away. Instead, he looked deeply at the wandering child.
"Elf..."
He whispered in a low voice: "I haven't seen the ring of the elf for a long time."
“…have you seen this thing?”
The talk was the wandering child himself. He asked nervously: "This is... the inheritance I have obtained from the remains of the elves."
"Naturally, in my time, the ring is glory."
The skeleton still spoke in the form of short sentences.
Not because he cannot speak more coherent words.
But He really talks too little... When it comes to "modern" grammar, He has to think about how to say it.
"The elves worship the ring. Because the elves are the people of the snake."
The bones replied fairly: "The will of the snake remains in all rings."
He raised his hand and made a move.
There was no curse pattern or even no curse fluctuations. The steps on the ground automatically melted again - like the light flowing back at the same time, it returned to the wall without a door.
The only difference is that the dispersed dust did not gather again.
The Skeleton Male did not continue to explain the issue of the elf, but turned around.
"Come with me."
He said.
When the sound fell, he no longer hesitated.
He moved towards a deeper, darker and light-free place. Dove followed the skeleton boy at the first time - the cat body shining with broken light, and followed the giant lightly, illuminating the road for others.
His heavy metal boots should not have the creaking sound that only appears when he stepped on the snow when he stepped on the dust. Or... According to the size of the three-meter-high body of the skeleton male, there should be only the sound of huge iron blocks roaring to the ground.
He should bring a heavy and irreversible sense of oppression like a roller.
But……
Longjing Cha looked at the Bones Man deeply.
Is this extremely light voice He doesn't want to destroy the ground here?
Or because there are only a string of bones left inside this thick armor...
He moved his heart, took two steps forward, and asked boldly: "Skeleton Madam... Do we need to clean up the dust here?"
“No need.”
The skeleton male even made the low, echoed old voice: "Dust returns to dust, earth returns to earth..."
It was a sigh.
Players move forward with the giant paladin who is one floor tall.
The light shining on the serval body refracted on the metal armor and emitted a dazzling glow. But the light was still too little and too dim - so that the shadows cast on the larger body area of the skeleton male appeared darker than darkness.
People move forward silently.
Passing through one tomb after another that is equally silent.
There were obviously no undead here, but Longjing Cha still felt a chill on his back.
That is the sense of vicissitudes that cannot be felt when visiting the scenic spots and historical sites of the past.
——It is "popularity".
Longjing Tea quickly caught that feeling.
The historical ancient cities he visited have a far longer history than the Duchy of Sangge... but they are far less terrifying than these tombs. Because on the edge of the "Ancient City", you can always see "not so ancient" surrounding buildings.
It was a sense of fear that could see the gaps in history—as if falling from the gaps in the world to deeper.
The place where the mourning song is more of an ancient tomb than an ancient city.
One by one, a few small buildings like garages, lying quietly under the city. Maybe it is based on the family tree, or according to the marriage or the friendship of a partner...
Looking at the tombs one by one, Longjing Cha seemed to see the giants of the former Duchy of Mourning Song, who were extremely calm - perhaps even talking and laughing, decided that they should be buried there after their death and who they should be next to.
Then they entered the covered tomb in an orderly manner, took the poison, and waited for others to seal their "lid".
……but.
Logically speaking... shouldn't these corpses be pulled into the skeleton's body?
“This is my hometown.”
Suddenly, without warning.
The skeleton spoke openly.
“This is where I was born and died. It is where I died and reborn.”
Just like every old man who remembers his hometown and his old fate, he tells stories about the past to young people who are not familiar with him.
