Exploring the Ancient Battlefield From a Thousand Years Ago, Ghouls and Mutant Ghosts
Editor: Henyee Translations
A burst of red light rose, just like when Qin Xiao fused with it.
Amidst the red light, the summoning array was faintly discernible.
Then, the red light dissipated.
Ten Phantom Laborers and two Phantom Hunters were summoned.
Phantom demons were demons with wings on their backs and horns on their heads. Their skin and blood were blue and they had four arms.
The Phantom Laborer was only 1.7 meters tall, but their four arms were very thick. Each of them held a tool for gathering or building.
On the other hand, the Phantom Hunter was much larger. Its three-meter-tall body was almost as big as the demonized Qin Xiao. Its dark blue skin was covered in dark red scales. It held a saber in both hands and crossed its arms in front of its chest. On its back was an excellent longbow.
Qin Xiao opened the interface.
Phantom Laborer (Ordinary Level 1): Vitality 20, Magic Power 10, Strength 5, Constitution 5, Agility 5, Willpower 5. Collection Lv. 2, Construction Lv. 2, Forging Lv. 1, Hunting Lv. 1.
Loyalty: 100 (permanent)
Satiety: 100/100
Stamina: 100/100
…
The most basic Phantom Laborers were already much stronger than the Icefield Monkeys Qin Xiao had encountered before, let alone the Level 1 elite Phantom Hunters.
The Icefield Monkey's Strength, Constitution, and Willpower only had a pitiful 1 point, and the highest Agility value was only 2.
Qin Xiao's Phantom Laborers crushed them in all aspects!
The only disadvantage was that these Phantom Laborers had an astonishing appetite.
Fortunately, the area where Qin Xiao was located was rich in resources. Otherwise, he might not have been able to feed them.
Phantom Hunter (Level 1 Elite): Vitality 80, Magic Power 40, Strength 10, Constitution 5, Agility 10, Willpower 4.
Loyalty: 100 (permanent)
Satiety: 100/100
Stamina: 100/100
Skills: Phantom Chop (e-level), Phantom Arrow (e-level), Night Arrow Rain (e-level)…
As expected of an elite unit!
With such strength, it could almost fight the entire group of Icefield Monkeys alone.
Other demons probably wouldn't even dare to think about this!
The exploration just now had given Qin Xiao a taste of sweetness.
From the chat area, he learned that there were not many resource-rich areas in the game.
Most of them were still struggling to make ends meet.
This was his chance!
Qin Xiao immediately led his newly summoned followers to explore further.
He placed the ten Phantom Laborers in the Cold Forest.
Qin Xiao led the two Phantom Hunters deeper into the forest.
He wanted to test the strength of this elite unit.
As for the Phantom Laborers, he was not worried at all. An ordinary Level 1 wild monster like the Icefield Monkey was far from being a match for the laborers.
There was a huge difference between Level 1 monsters.
No matter what, the Phantom Laborers were summoned creatures of someone who had ultimate demon aptitude!
As expected, Qin Xiao received a system notification not long after.
Collection successful. Frost Grass +1
Killed an Icefield Monkey, Gold Coin +1
…
During this process, there was no loss of the phantom demons.
It seemed that even the Icefield Monkeys would be instantly killed by the Phantom Laborers.
There was no need to worry about the safety of the Phantom Laborers.
The True Vision continued to scan the area. Suddenly, a notification caught his attention.
Weeping Forest—Level 1 Elite Area. High Resource Level. Intermediate Danger Level. Including a Level 1 Elite Mystic Realm—Battlefield Ruins. Reward: Bronze Treasure Chest, Duke Slanke's Legacy, etc.
The ruins of the human battlefield a thousand years ago had long disappeared after countless years. Flesh and blood had become nutrients for the forest.
Endless resentment filled the forest!
The unwillingness and anger in their chests revived the undead who had been slaughtered. They attached themselves to the corpses of their enemies and waited for release.
After losing their intelligence, they only had the desire to kill in their hearts.
Anyone who stepped in would be attacked by them!
"Treasure chest?"
Although Qin Xiao had seen other demons talk about it in the chat room, this was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes.
He was instantly interested.
Not only would there be gold coins as a reward, but there might also be blueprints and gems.
These were all priceless goods at this stage!
Since Qin Xiao saw it, he had to get it!
Moreover, the danger level was only moderate. It was not difficult for Qin Xiao.
Immediately, he landed on the ground with the two Phantom Hunters.
The mystic realm could not be entered directly. One had to pass through the gloomy forest in front to reach the entrance.
However, the attributes of these wild monsters in the forest were too low.
They were similar to the Icefield Monkey he had encountered previously.
As he slaughtered the wild monsters in the forest, Qin Xiao went deeper into the forest.
Game Notification: Killed Skeleton Soldier, Gold +2
Game Notification: Killed Skeleton Soldier, Gold +2
Game Notification: Killed Skeleton Horse, Gold Coin +1
…
The wild monsters along the way were handed over to the two Phantom Hunters.
Their strength did not disappoint Qin Xiao.
The skeletons that came out of the ground were shot to pieces by the hunters before they could get close.
The difference in attributes between the two sides was too great!
Although the number of gold coins was increasing, Qin Xiao was not excited at all.
What really interested him was the mystic realm mentioned by the True Vision!
There was also a creature called the Fire Deer. It was almost the same as the Little Fire Monkey, and the experience it gave was only a pitiful 0.1.
Qin Xiao finally arrived at the heart of the forest.
In just a short while, he had 325 gold coins. He could summon more followers after he went back.
As expected, after having summoned creatures, the speed at which he collected resources and gold coins increased significantly.
It seemed that he had made the right decision.
Only by continuously strengthening his own forces could he achieve a virtuous cycle.
He was getting stronger and stronger!
The surrounding trees gradually decreased, and no more skeleton monsters emerged from the ground.
It seemed that he had arrived!
He activated the True Vision. As expected, a notification appeared on the scorched earth in front of him.
Ancient Battlefield Ruins—Level 1 Elite Mystic Realm. Reward: Bronze Treasure Chest, Duke Slanke's Legacy.
"On behalf of the Sanctuary, I declare you an apostle of sins! The incarnation of calamity!"
"No! I refuse to accept this!"
"Warriors of the Slanke Family, kill all these scumbags!"
"Go to hell, Slanke!"
…
Through the True Vision, Qin Xiao understood everything that had happened here.
Thousands of years ago, a duke named Slanke ruled the region, and under his rule the people lived in stability and self-sufficiency.
Gradually, however, the duke realized that girls were disappearing from his territory.
After some investigation, he found out that some priests of the Sanctuary had secretly abducted them and sacrificed them to the demons to pray for greater power.
Just as Duke Slanke was about to go to the king to expose the matter, his whereabouts were exposed.
The Sanctuary immediately accused Slanke of colluding with demons.
The king was furious and immediately sent 3,000 Knights of Judgment to eliminate Slanke.
The resentment of the defending soldiers who fought to the death did not dissipate after their deaths. They turned into the skeleton soldiers they had just encountered.
The vengeful spirits of Duke Slanke and his two sons were forever lingering on the battlefield, waiting for the day when they could take revenge on the enemy!
"Is the Sanctuary also colluding with demons? What an unbelievable story."
"Let me free you."
"Slanke!"
Just as Qin Xiao stepped into the open space, the familiar system notification appeared again.
You have entered the Ancient Battlefield Ruins. The enemy will appear in five seconds. Please be prepared!
Five!
Four!
…
One!
