New enemies old scenery

After a day full of fun and performance both fell asleep quite early but Mortis was actually fit so he woke up before the sun came up so he put 10 gold on the table put on his equipment and he disappeared into the spirit realm heading south to get to the new area where stronger enemies are waiting as well as animals that can now use mana.

The first thing he saw was a very wide forest that was very dense and made all kinds of noises as the sun started to rise the forest started to move the most the night animals looking to get into their lair that were awake during the day woke up.

Mortis went to get Sarah just to be sure, but Mortis quickly realized that even carnivores like wolves and larger badgers as well as foxes simply ignored him. But Mortis was very happy with that because he doesn't like to kill animals just for some experience and some animal souls.

"System is there something around here like a goblin cave or something like that?" I don't know, but if you keep walking southeast, you should soon come to a graveyard and there are some hills in that direction, maybe you'll find something there.

After hours of walking Mortis reached the hills but there were only small caves occupied by wild animals. So Mortis made his way to the next graveyard and hoped that he would now get a real challenge as the spirits should be higher now.

At the graveyard Mortis saw completely new ghosts with different colors and also with weapons made of exoplasm standing there, it looked like their weapons and colors would take on their former class. The spirits were also distributed in groups like in dungeons, one could see some evil spirits chasing the good ones and hitting them, probably wanting to turn them into their own kind or destroy them.

Mortis jumped into the first group he saw and they all survived even though he hit them all with scythes but before the mage of the group could react Sarah stabbed him in the back so Mortis went straight to the archer to finish off the ranged fighters first so he wouldn't get attacked from behind while taking care of the melee fighters.

The melee fighters were no problem for Mortis as he was faster than the ghosts and even if a tank could protect itself a bit it was simply slashed by Sarah. So Mortis started to clear the way again from the outside to the inside of the opponents but the old evaluation is the best so he ran to get more opponents on him as many as possible to finish them all with scythes and run on with new energy.

It took 30 minutes to clear the outer ring, the middle ring Sarah and he pulled in opposite directions and when they met Mortis ran with the horde of enemies into the middle into the next horde laughing as ghost files and icicles flew past him.

So Mortis committed the massacre where there was only one witness and she was a ghost herself who joined in with ice spells and claws as a madman jumped through a huge horde of skeletons and ghosts and in minutes wiped out everything where he landed after the jump because even through so many enemies his passive was always activated if it wasn't ghosts he would be knee deep in blood in just a few minutes but luckily neither ghosts nor skeletons gave that.

Lvl up! Lv Up! Distribute your 18 sp. " Not after now." Sarah also ascended, stopping short as she wondered what the window was that suddenly appeared.

The door of the crypt burst open and 2 large skeletons came out in full gear. "What are they?" They are just dead warriors, they have some abilities but at that level they are just skeletons with armor, just knock them down by the way, they should be little stronger than that other garbage that disturbs this place of peace.

" As you wish my pretty." Mortis ran towards them jumped up turned 180° and used ghostly retreat to get behind the warriors then he slashed at them until he was surrounded by masses of ghosts again then he used 2x scythe whirls hitting the warriors always last and also his passives got them but before they realized what was going on their armor pieces shattered and their skulls broke into 100 pieces.

Redeeming the last ones was the most annoying part because they thought they had nothing to fear as ghosts but they were wrong when Mortis entered the graveyard. After most were redeemed or fled Mortis made his way to the basement of the crypt where he had no opponent this time.

When he finished his prayer and closed his eyes, he thought about how many he had just killed. There were a total of 230 enemies that you redeemed but there will be many more souls now because the higher the area the more dead, which is why the small towns where you were before are now rare, you could say that even Grass Hill is only one village. Also the birth rates will be higher the higher the area because offspring is everything because the death rate will rise so immensely as it becomes more dangerous. " That sounds good, it's about time I get my Legendary Scythe and the + 10 potion on all values smiled at me.

When the area and the graveyard had changed Mortis wanted to go up but was stopped by Sarah who pointed to the system window. Mortis looked at it and saw that she had very even stats. Mortis wondered what to do with her, whether she should cast spells or continue to slash enemies with her fingernails. "System put her stats as if she were an assassin, I have enough mages".

° Will do boss. But what about your 18 sp and you've already collected 5 secret boxes don't you want to start using them?

"You're right, I'll open one and you can just put all my sp into skill, which reminds me, I should take the 2 potions Jochen gave me.

Mortis quickly drank the potions and felt them and the 18 sp make him more agile and stronger, he loved the feeling almost too much but what can you expect from a narcissist.

In the one box he opened there was a room expansion inside which increased his ring to 5 cubic meters. This pleased Mortis but in his opinion it could have been better so he saved the other 4 boxes.

In front of the Kyrpta one saw only soul balls in row and limb also on top of each other. ° They have taken up 814 souls °.

Mortis looked at the map of the system and saw where the next city was and was surprised when he read the name he took, it was Bayreuth, the city of a count whose daughter he saw briefly when he was killing bandits.

So Mortis set off there but was a bit disappointed with the new area as he found neither a secret dungeon nor a monster cave except for bigger game he doesn't see. " System why don't any animals attack me?" It's because of your class and the connection to Tot, you can say that people or others don't notice it, but the animals instinct tells them that you are an important part of the nature.

Mortis suddenly heard a cruel howling which made him curious and he saw how in a small forest badger dogs were fighting against wolves. Mortis ran even if he did not want to kill animals, he could not see how wolves want to eat these small dogs. He kicked the first wolf he came across in the stomach to catapult it as far away from the dogs as possible, but Mortis underestimated his strength and the wolf died.

Mortis was very saddened by this, but not so much that it clouded his mind and he could no longer move. On the contrary, he stood in front of the dogs and raised his scythe to shoo the wolves away. The wolves kept their distance and looked at him threateningly as an arrow landed in a forehead of one of the wolves which scared them and when they looked up they saw 2 more people coming towards them which was too much for the alpha now so he ran away with his pack while they caught 2 dachshunds and dragged them with them.

If Mortis is always very cold or quiet was in the now right to cry mute he was in his former life since his childhood dachshund owner whether rough or long hair he loved them and to see how they died and were taken to eat made him very angry and sad.

Mortis took out his food and shared it with the 4 surviving dogs, when a young woman and a young man arrived and asked him if everything was alright. Mortis just nodded and didn't want to talk to them, but rather gave the dogs food and petted them.

Are these your dogs? asked the woman. But Mortis shook his head and said. No, I rescued them from the wolves, I don't even know why there are such small dogs out here in the wilderness, usually to guard a yard or a house. The woman started laughing and said. No one keeps mouse dogs they are small and weak.

"First of all they are dachshunds they are perfect for hunting rabbits and badgers that's why they are called badger dogs Secondly because they are small and scared they are the perfect guard dogs because they are always watching what is going on around them so don't tell me that you stupid creatures don't even know that".

I didn't know that and we are both hunters but you can say it in a more friendly way. Complained the man. "I'm sorry, I'm just a little shocked that you don't even know the name of this rabbit." Okay, I'll take one and try it out," said the woman, taking a rough-haired dachshund and putting a small piece of paper on its forehead and chanting a formula. The man saw this and did the same after they were done the dogs had a seal on their forehead which quickly disappeared.

The dogs were now the companions of this couple which grinned at Mortis and then said together. Here are some rabbits in the field, let's see if you're right rabbits can be very dangerous to dogs and cause them great harm because of the hook shot they make when an animal approaches so I want to see that these basset hounds as you call them are really good for hunting.They went from the small forest to a wide field where there are many wild plants and shrubs.

From a distance they saw hatreds and other small animals, so the dachshunds put one leg up, looked at what was closest and when they had something in their sights, they charged. The hunters were confused why these dogs run and jump in zigzags but it was not long before the dogs approached the hares and just as one hare was about to run, the dachshund made a U-turn and bit the hare in the neck. "Well, you see, big dogs are faster, but dachshunds are agile and they can enter the burrows of small animals without panicking because they can run long distances backwards without problems.
