System prompt: You have discovered the Bone Wasteland, experience value +100
The Wasteland of Bones is located on the northwest land of the main plane of light, 500 kilometers away from Leighton City, adjacent to the Forest of Shadows and the Grand Canyon of the Undead. The three combined are called the Land of Death.
According to the records of the Light Calendar, thousands of years ago, the Bone Wasteland was originally a fertile and fertile land. Later, with the invasion of the undead army, it turned into a huge battlefield, with millions of human and elven coalition forces and ten times the number of enemies.
A desperate showdown began.
The war lasted for three years. Although the coalition forces defeated the undead army after paying a heavy price, the land was also polluted by the dark power and could no longer be inhabited and cultivated. It eventually turned into the current wasteland of bones.
The vast wilderness is covered by endless thorns and weeds. There are countless bones hidden under the grass. Looking at the low and rolling hills, they look like huge tombs. The wind blowing from the distance sweeps over the decayed tree trunks.
The low howling sound is like an elegy from hell!
Several skeletal warriors were wandering aimlessly on the edge of the wasteland. They were wearing tattered leather armor and holding rusty swords and axes in their hands. The eyes of the skeletons were dancing with blue ghost fire. They could not be found.
Your final destination.
A black raven squawked and flew over their heads, while higher up in the sky, dark red clouds covered the sun, rolling and roaring silently, as if they would collapse at any time.
This was the first time that Zhao Xi came to the Skeleton Wasteland. The sight that appeared in front of him and the aura of death that was so strong that it could not be dispelled made his soul tremble!
On the day Yangmei Team moved to Shengyao City, Zhao Xi transferred the captaincy to Ye Qianqian, then left the team and rushed all the way to the Red Fortress located on the edge of the Skeleton Wasteland.
Since he had been locked by the space chain of Huamanlou, he was unable to use any teleportation array in the main plane. So he had to take the system's taxi to travel, which took a full 10 hours on the road.
In the mercenary guild of the Red Fortress, Zhao Xi took on five missions related to the Bone Wasteland in one go. After bringing enough supplies, he came to this land of death alone and started a new journey of his own.
This is also the place he chose for the decisive battle between himself and his opponent!
There are quite a few players who come from the Red Fortress to the Skeleton Wasteland to level up and do quests. They are basically in groups, and few of them work alone like Zhao Xi.
At the beginning, Zhao Xi could still see other players on the road, but as he continued deeper into the wasteland, those players all disappeared without a trace.
Because this wilderness is too big and empty, thousands of players entering it will be like raindrops falling into the sea without causing a single ripple.
Click! Click!
The two skeletal warriors spotted Zhao Xi from a distance, and they immediately took off and ran towards him.
What's a bit funny is that when the two skeletons are running, all the bones in their bodies are ringing, as if a machine that has been rusty for many years is being forcibly started. The sound of joint friction makes people's teeth feel sore just listening to it.
However, Zhao Xi did not underestimate the opponent too much. The Skeleton Warrior was a level 19 undead. Although it was the lowest level monster in the entire land of death, it was not easy to offend.
Level 19 Skeleton Warriors, Level 20 Skeleton Archers, Level 21 Undead Assassins, Level 22 Ember Mages and Death Knights are unimaginably numerous in the Skeleton Wasteland. They rarely appear alone and are fearless in battle.
They are dead and they know how to cooperate with each other. Players without some strength simply cannot gain a foothold here.
Zhao Xi picked up the battle shield and rushed forward quickly.
When the two sides were about to collide head-on, he suddenly swung his shield and used the shield to hit the skeleton warrior on the left away hard. The bloodthirsty blade struck hard on the shoulder of another skeleton warrior!
Click!
The skeletal warrior's shoulder blade was broken in response, and a damage number instantly flew up.
-175!
call!
The skeleton warrior shook his head, and immediately swung his battle ax towards him. The ax blade roared through the air, showing considerable strength and momentum.
Zhao Xi stood still and did not dodge, using his battle shield to block the opponent's counterattack.
Bang!
There was only a muffled sound of a heavy object hitting him. Zhao Xi's whole body was shaken, and his mouth was a little numb.
-79!
The damage was neither high nor too low, not beyond his expectation.
Zhao Xi took advantage of the situation and took two steps back. The skeleton warrior caught up and swung his battle ax horizontally. The speed was quite fast.
However, Zhao Xi was testing the opponent's attack power earlier, so he deliberately used his shield to block it. How could he give it a chance now? He kept retreating and easily avoided the Skeleton Warrior's pursuit.
The Silver Feather Boots given to him by Ouyang Mu were really good. After equipping them, his pace and movement speed were significantly accelerated, making it easier to dodge attacks from non-high-sensitivity monsters like Skeleton Warriors.
But blindly dodging is definitely not Zhao Xi's style. The moment the skeleton warrior's battle ax struck the air, he suddenly stopped and leaned forward, and the bloodthirsty war blade in his hand struck at the latter's neck with lightning speed!
The moment the war blade was swung, a faint golden light emitted from the blade, which was the skill effect of the Holy Power blessing, converting ordinary attacks into special attacks that increased Holy damage.
Click!
The bloodthirsty war blade perfectly fulfilled Zhao Xi's intention, striking at the lower end of the skeleton warrior's neck bone. The thick bone immediately broke into pieces, and the entire skull was chopped away by the sudden burst of power!
-285!
-322!
Double strike, instant kill!
The damage bonus effect of holy power on undead monsters is fully demonstrated in this knife.
The headless skeletal warrior's limbs twitched and jumped on the spot a few times, and then the whole body's skeleton suddenly collapsed, turning into a pile of withered bones on the ground in an instant.
System prompt: You have gained 330 experience points!
At this moment, the skeletal warrior who had just been knocked away and stunned by Zhao Xizhan's shield rushed up and rushed towards him without fear of death. The dark fire in the black eye sockets burned brighter.
Zhao Xi was about to wield the war blade to fight with it, but suddenly his right ankle tightened, as if it was being held tightly by something, which caused a little pain!
-10!
He was startled, but without the slightest panic, he immediately raised his shield to block the Skeleton Warrior's sword, then lowered his head to look at his right foot.
I saw a gray-white skeletal hand appearing on the ground at some point, and its long fingers grabbed his ankle tightly without letting go. The soil on the ground showed obvious signs of arching!
This kind of walking skeleton is also a very common monster in the Skeleton Wasteland. Its attack power is not high, but the most annoying thing is that the walking skeleton likes to lurk underground and make sneak attacks, and is good at restraining opponents with its bone claws.
The walking skeleton will not appear alone. It always attacks in conjunction with other undead monsters. It is hard to detect because it hides on the ground, so it is difficult to guard against.
Zhao Xi swung down the war blade without hesitation, and the blade accurately struck the bottom of the bone claw.
Click!
-212!
The entire bone claw was cut off abruptly by the bloodthirsty blade, and the five fingers grabbing his ankle immediately broke on their own.
After getting rid of the restraints, Zhao Xi suddenly rushed forward and hit the skeletal warrior in front of him with his shield and body, causing the opponent to stagger and almost fall to the ground.
Zhao Xi took the opportunity to swing his war blade and slashed at it one after another, cutting it into a pile of bones in an instant!
A gray-white bead burst out and rolled down on the grass, emitting a faint light.
Zhao Xi did not immediately pick up the loot, but instead stared down at the movement under his feet. When he saw signs of bulging again on the grass, he attacked that location without hesitation.
Holy Power Judgment!
The sword light containing terrifying power struck the ground in an instant, plowing out a long ravine. The skeleton corpse hiding underground had no time to dodge, and was cut into two pieces.
-395!
There was only a "bang" sound, and broken bones and dirt and grass flew everywhere.
System prompt: You gain 350 experience points!
