Volume One: Struggling in the Wasteland of Dry Bones Chapter Six: The Burial of Kings

The upgrade is not as slow as Andre thought. After hunting crazily for a full month, on the night when the crimson moon became round again, the black and red Yin-Yang fish in Andre's soul fire suddenly gushed out a large number of pure energy balls.

This energy is too pure. Andre, who has always let his soul fire absorb the moonlight on its own, was caught off guard and directly fainted. This time, the scene was much smaller, and it was just the appearance of a normal skeleton upgrade - a group of black fog appeared out of thin air and wrapped around Andre. When the black fog dissipated, Andre's skeleton had become more uniform, and the skull staff naturally changed its appearance, with the top becoming an unknown carnivorous beast's skull...

When Andre woke up, the first thing he saw was the five foolish servants, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

After a brief check, he found that the spiritual power that the soul fire could store had increased by at least three times, and the number of undead servants that could be controlled also rose by three times.

After hesitating for a long time, Andre finally gritted his teeth, got up, and took the skeleton servants to the nearest skeleton mage temple.

It's not that he is not afraid of the God of Death Hades, on the contrary, he is scared to death. That kind of deep pressure and trembling feeling that reaches the soul, he doesn't want to try again at all!

But what's the use of being afraid? Andre is clear that if the God of Death Hades really wants to "talk" to himself, he can't escape no matter what!

It's better to be a bachelor and learn and then slip away. Andre gambles that the God of Death Hades doesn't have time to stare at himself all the time!

Andre was indeed right. Until he walked out of the skeleton mage temple, the will of the God of Death Hades did not appear.

"I guess I've forgotten early!"

Andre comforted himself... It's best to forget it clean!

What Andre learned this time was the Bone Shield Technique, one of the skeleton mage's life-saving skills. The bone shield displayed has a diameter of about one meter and a thickness of about two centimeters. Andre let Dagama, who had already been promoted to level 3, chop with all his strength, and as a result, it took five or six axes to chop it to pieces...

Andre immediately fell in love with this new spell.

I just don't know if this bone shield can block the mysterious energy that killed that group of skeleton war elephants?

Andre was startled by his sudden thought. Up to now, he still can't figure out what exactly killed the seven skeleton war elephants. The hole with a diameter of a fist... obviously not an arrow, a giant crossbow is possible... No, a giant crossbow doesn't have such power, and the density of the skull of the skeleton war elephant is not much different from that of a steel plate.

Could it be a spell like Bone Spear? It's also unlikely. Those who can use such powerful Bone Spear should at least be a king level. That withered forest is only a small place...

Moreover, according to the inherited memory, there are also fragments about encountering the strong existence of the king level. The king level seems to have its own pressure. After being oppressed by the king, the poor skeleton mage can only be submissive involuntarily.

Andre has been around the withered forest from a distance in the past month, but he has not encountered the so-called king's pressure. Although he still dares not to step into the withered forest, he has already bypassed the forest from a distance.

In addition to the corpses of the seven skeleton war elephants, he did not find any other strong undead buried nearby.

If there is no idea of going in to explore the situation, it is completely self-deceptive.

"Wait until I catch fifteen skeleton servants, and I will... go in and have a look!" Andre finally made up his mind.

Since he became a skeleton, Andre has always regarded self-preservation as the first idea. Although he made up his mind to explore, the target he wanted to catch was the skeleton knife and axe handler. For no other reason, the bone shield carried by the skeleton knife and axe handler at least looks like it has a good defensive power.

With this idea, the first and second-level skeleton knife and axe handlers that appeared in Andre's sight were completely in trouble. Andre even studied a tactic of five giant axe skeletons rushing up at the same time, one responsible for pushing down, four responsible for holding the hands and feet, and finally a skeleton mage playing "Skeleton Control" desperately.

I don't know if it's because the spiritual power has surged, but except for the first few skeleton knife and axe handlers who still refused to "submit"

, it has basically been foolproof in the later stage. It's just that the number of skeleton knife and axe handlers nearby is a bit small, and it took Andre eight days to catch enough ten skeleton knife and axe handlers.

Five giant axe skeletons in front, five skeleton knife and axe handlers around to protect him, and another five skeleton knife and axe handlers in the rear.

If you encounter a disliked undead, just point your hand, and the skeleton servants will pounce on the other party and chop them into a pile of bone scraps...

Andre feels that he is now quite like a landlord's son... leading a group of vicious dogs, fierce servants, and causing trouble on the streets, and causing trouble in the countryside.

Although he made a lot of trouble along the way, as soon as he saw the withered forest from a distance, Andre immediately restrained the group of "evil servants" who were killing people on the street and turned into good babies. He was afraid of offending the powerful undead that might be in the withered forest.

He ordered the other skeletons to be on alert, and Andre transferred most of his soul to the body of a skeleton knife and axe handler. After switching to the visual of the knife and axe handler, Andre carefully controlled the skeleton knife and axe handler to move step by step into the depths of the forest.

With Andre's current spiritual power, he can control the skeleton servants to search up to a hundred meters after transferring his consciousness. When Andre was walking around the withered forest, he had already found that this small withered forest is circular, and the diameter does not exceed three hundred meters.

If you grit your teeth and work hard, it is entirely possible to control the skeleton knife and axe handler to walk to the center of the forest.

Apart from some low-level skeletons wandering on the edge of the forest, the deeper Andre walked into the forest, the more nervous he became. The light was dim, there was no sound, and all he saw were strangely twisted black trees. Andre always felt that there were countless cold and dead eyes around him, but he couldn't find anything when he stopped to observe.

This strange feeling made Andre want to run away immediately, but when he saw a glimmer of white light through the dense dead wood, the idea of continuing to move forward immediately took the upper hand. What's in front?

Andre, who was about to run out of spiritual power, simply made the skeleton knife and axe handler run - just like a person who has been trapped in a cave for a long time and has found a glimmer of light at the entrance of the cave, running towards the glimmer of light in the heavy darkness...

He saw it!

It's - it's countless skeletons?!

Andre suddenly stopped, shocked.

Skeleton war elephants, death knights, necromancers, bone dragons, giant skeletons...

Countless skeletons that Andre knows or doesn't know, piled up like a mountain, and the pale skulls with soul fires that have been extinguished for a long time are scattered around. The bones with different sizes of crowns on their heads prove their identities.

Who is so powerful that he can kill such a huge number of undead kings at one time?!

A shrill scream suddenly rang out in Andre's ear, and Andre only had time to turn his head and look at a ferocious soul-devouring ghost appearing out of thin air, and then everything went black, losing control of the skeleton knife and axe handler who had entered the jungle.
