A hand with only bones left stretched out from the rotten leaves and grabbed Xu You's ankle.
This scene was terrifying. Even though Xu You was a third-grade martial artist and had worked in Linjiang City's Special Operations Office and had experienced a lot, he was still so frightened that his hair stood on end and he jumped up suddenly.
As he jumped up, the skeletal palm was brought out, and attached to it was a corpse. Only a small part of it was rotten, with hollow eye sockets and a worm lying on it.
"Fuck!" Ning Chen was also frightened.
Jiang Yun was the calmest, just retreating lightly, but the expression on her face was still a little uncomfortable. The Qinglu sword was three inches out of its sheath, ready to take action at any time.
After the initial panic, Xu You calmed down and punched out, shattering the skull into pieces. The whole thing fell apart. A head rolled several times on the ground. The worm crawled out of the head, got into the pile of leaves and disappeared. .
"Fuck, what the hell is this place, the skeleton can actually move?" Xu You cursed, trying to get rid of the creeping feeling in his heart.
"There are various kinds of alien spaces. Some are like a peach blossom garden, a paradise; some are like hell, once you enter a narrow escape from death; some are buried with a certain powerful master and are the tombs after his death. In order not to be Others found and disturbed me, and chose to be buried in a different space..." Jiang Yun said: "This place is very strange, everyone, be careful."
Ning Chen and Xu You nodded in unison.
There's no way to tell what type of alien space this is yet, but you can tell just by looking at the environment that it's definitely not a good place.
The three of them continued to move along the marks and did not encounter any more skeletons.
This made the three of them feel relaxed. Maybe it was just a coincidence. As for why the skeleton moved, maybe it was the reaction of Xu You stepping on it.
"Wait a moment."
Ning Chen suddenly stopped and turned to look at Jiang Yun and Xu You. Their expressions became solemn, and they both sensed the aura of danger.
It was very quiet ahead, with a hilly area and only a few dead old trees. However, they were keenly aware of the danger, and even the Qinglu Sword was still vibrating slightly, making a clanging sound.
"Back off." Jiang Yun shouted.
But it's too late.
In an instant, the ground cracked open, and first a skeleton palm protruded from the ground. It supported the ground and jumped suddenly, and it jumped out of the ground like a living person. The other hand was also holding a dagger. , the empty eye sockets were dark, and only a bug could be vaguely seen lying on it.
The skeleton held a dagger in its hand, but its bare skeleton moved very quickly. It rushed towards Ning Chen and the others, swiping the dagger and slashing.
boom!
Xu You took action, punched out, and exploded with energy, smashing the skull into pieces. The bones were broken into pieces. The dagger fell to the ground, and a fleshy worm crawled out of the head, like a maggot. However, it Much bigger than maggots.
Ning Chen and the others had no time to pay attention to the insects, because more skeletons crawled out from the ground, some holding weapons, some with bare hands, and there were dozens of them, rushing towards them.
Sonorous!
With a clang, the Qinglu sword was unsheathed.
Jiang Yun's body skills are mysterious and she wanders among a group of skeletons. Every time she draws her sword, a skeleton will fall down and be chopped into two pieces.
Ning Chen also pulled out his long sword, but did not use the "Nine Wave-Breaking Slashes" because there was no need to do so. He held the sword in one hand and punched with the other. Every time the sword was struck, the skeleton would disintegrate, and with every punch, the skeleton's bones would explode. sound.
The number of skeletons is not small, but their strength is not high. After all, they are dead creatures, and they do not have any martial arts or body skills, so they are easy to deal with.
In just a moment, dozens of skeletons turned into a pile of broken bones.
"Huh..." Ning Chen exhaled a breath of turbid air. He was not tired, but he felt that this place was too weird and felt depressed.
Click!
Suddenly, the bone fragments on the ground began to move, and some intact bones started to move, as if magnets were attracting each other, and soon they came together to form a monster made of bones, which looked like a human, but was on all fours.
, three meters high, with a dark hole on its head, and dozens of insects lying inside.
"What kind of monster is this?" Xu You's voice was trembling.
"It doesn't matter what kind of monster it is, just chop it down." Ning Chen became fierce, jumped out with the knife, used "Nine Cuts of Breaking Waves", and chopped it down with one blow.
Although Ning Chen has seen many terrifying creatures, this is the first time he has seen such a monster.
And unlike the previous terrifying creatures, in the past, he could receive the energy gift from the Bronze Immortal Palace after killing the terrifying creatures, but not this time. He had killed at least a dozen skeletons just now, but there was no reaction from the Bronze Immortal Palace.
He was a little unsure, were these considered scary creatures?
Or maybe the scary creatures are not necessarily flesh-and-blood things, nor do they necessarily evolve from animals, but also include some unknown things?
"boom!"
The long knife fell and chopped on a pile of bones. The bones were broken and exploded into pieces. One arm of the monster made of bones was cut off. It seemed to have intelligence. It also looked at the broken arm, and then opened
He opened his mouth, roared silently, and rushed towards Ning Chen.
Ning Chen jumped up, moved forward without retreating, and punched out. He also used the "Wild Bull Fist" and collided with the skeletal monster. The terrifying power spread, and the pile of bones suddenly exploded into tiny fragments.
Xu You and Jiang Yun did not take action. They frowned and looked around while observing the skeletal monster.
This thing looks scary, but its strength is only average. At least it is not difficult for a warrior of Ning Chen's level to deal with.
It's just that this thing is so weird that it's hard for people to understand.
Soon, Ning Chen dismantled the skeletal monster into a pile of fragments. In order to prevent the bones from condensing again, he struck hard and shattered all the bones.
As expected, it didn't condense again this time. Apart from a pile of bone fragments on the ground, there were only a few worms, fleshy and squirming, burrowing into the ground.
"insect......"
Looking at those insects, Ning Chen's heart skipped a beat: "Wait, it seems that every skeleton, including the huge skeleton monster with many bones condensed, has one thing in common, either in the eye sockets or in the skull.
insect."
At the same time, Xu You and Jiang Yun also noticed this.
The three of them exchanged glances and realized that the reason why these skeletons were moving might be related to these seemingly inconspicuous insects.
Ning Chen started digging through the soil to look for the bugs, but he was disappointed. The bugs had disappeared and went deep into the ground.
"Although I can't verify it, I think it's probably related to these bugs." Ning Chen clapped his hands, but still felt uncomfortable. He took out a bottle of water and washed his hands again and again before he felt comfortable.
"Yeah." Xu You nodded, "If we encounter skeletons again later, we can try to kill the bugs first."
The three of them continued to move forward, feeling a little heavy.
Although they had a near miss just now, this place was so weird that they felt heavy in their hearts, as if they were enveloped by something.
