Chapter 659: Another Green Skull
The side of the coffin is densely engraved with a large piece of small characters, almost all of which are all kinds of bragging honorary titles, and the person who carved the stele seems to want to reflect his literary brilliance, and write those titles like tongue twisters, all kinds of awkwardness.
It seems to be a common problem to like to press a bunch of honorary titles on yourself, and the ancient emperors of the Celestial Empire also have this virtue, if you don't believe it, go and see their nicknames after death, it's called a long ......
However, it doesn't matter if there is a title on the coffin, the four players only need to know two points.
The man in the coffin is called Priestley. Lopwen was the first lord of Lopwen City.
His tomb is different from that of his heirs, there is no big thorn outside, but a separate secret room, probably to show his extraordinary.
It felt like the 'remains' mentioned in the conversation between the priest of Workin and Grazt were him.
An Yizhi was about to take a closer look at the coffin, when he suddenly felt as if he had touched a handle under his feet, and when he looked down, it turned out to be a long sword that had been broken to the point of being broken.
Not one, to be exact, but a full nine, and the long swords were scattered in a fan shape at the door of the tomb, as if they had been killed during the siege of someone.
【Completely Damaged Sword】
Attributes: Decorations
Description: Sell a rotten sword that no one collects for scrap iron, you don't want to take it away, do you?
…… The system is muddy!
It seems that An Yizhi's ability to scrape grease on the stomach of plucking mosquitoes has been recognized by the system, although he himself is not very happy.
"Master, these swords were supposed to be living weapons."
Hela looked at the runes coming out of the hilt of her sword and recognized it.
Living weapons can be seen as the simplest alchemy creatures, allowing them to attack and move freely by casting magic on them, such as the floating sword on Ann's waist.
It's just that compared to the Floating Sword, the weapons here are semi-permanent enchantments, and as long as the runes are not broken, they will always be effective.
In other words, these swords were supposed to be guards to protect the coffin, and if they didn't open the tomb door in the right way, they would be judged enemies and attacked by living weapons.
However, judging from the situation at the scene, these living weapons have been completely resolved, and it seems that An Yizhi and others are not the first batch of 'illegal intruders'.
In this way, the "remains" that Pastor Wauking refers to are the coffins in front of him are more likely.
"Brother An."
Appletea screamed, and he was holding his tools to pry open the coffin:
"The lock here has been pried open, and the method used is quite violent, as if it was broken by magic."
Apple tea has been a bit obsessive-compulsive since it became more and more like a thief.
Every time you unlock the lock, you have to ensure the integrity of the lock, which is called perfection. The way he used violence to open the locks made him very unhappy.
"You guys stand back, let's open the coffin and have a look."
"Is that really good? I always feel a little hairy when I open a dead man's coffin or something. ”
Fruit Hard Candy said in her heart, this girl's performance is normal, but the adventurer is actually a group of hyenas who loot the wealth of the dead, An Yizhi and Apple Tea expressed calmness.
"Come on, I'm bloody."
Coffee Hard Candy proposed.
Even though he is an agile warrior, he is also a front row, and his HP is much higher than that of the other three.
An Yizhi was not reluctant, but raised his right hand slightly, ready to release the Force Wall Technique at any time to save his life.
The coffin is made of stone, and the lid is naturally the same, which looks very heavy.
However, when the coffee hard candy was exerted, it was found that the coffin board was unexpectedly light, as if there was a hydraulic power inside, and the lid of the entire coffin was lifted casually.
At that moment, everyone felt a cold wind blow that made their hairs stand on end, as if some sticky, disembodied creature was licking its skin to the side.
This feeling appeared abruptly and disappeared faster, only for a moment, if it weren't for the hair on the ears of the fruit hard candy cat exploding, everyone would even think that it was their own illusion just now.
"There was a very strong eruption of negative energy just now, but it was quickly sucked back, and the speed was too fast, you didn't see it"
Hela's scarlet eyes lit up with a magical aura, and her ability to see energy allowed her to see more clearly than anyone else.
It's just that......
How do you feel like this tone is familiar?
"Green skeletons? And this forgiveness-colored undead? ”
Coffee Hard Candy wondered.
Skeletons are familiar to all players from the sub-gate, and the most popular leveling point near the Endless Dungeon is everywhere, and almost all players from the sub-gate are upgraded by farming the undead.
He was about to reach out and remove the skeleton to see if there was anything to scavenge underneath. But it was immediately stopped by An Yizhi.
"Brother An, why do I think this skeleton is familiar......
"Coincidentally, I'm ...... too"
Because the skeleton in front of him was almost the same as Skeletron Cheek under the Red Iron Valley, except for the lack of hair and scepter! It's no wonder that the two of them feel familiar, it's not been a few days since Skeletron's city died.
"He's not going to jump right away, is he?"
I was chased by Skeletron last time, and Apple Tea didn't want to experience it again.
Fruit Hard Candy frowned and said:
"My Detect Undead spell shows a vague one, it has the characteristics of the undead, but it's excluded by the spell."
As a druid, the fruit hard candy who is good at natural spells is very sensitive to the breath of the undead, and even she can't understand the state of the skeleton in front of her.
Like an undead creature, but almost meaninglessly, to say no, the negative energy level is very high.
"It should be in a state of similar sleep, unless there is an opportunity, otherwise even if you dismantle it and use it as pork ribs to make soup, it will not wake up."
Hela Says:
"It's just not clear what the opportunity is, this thing is weird, anything is possible. And this skeleton is obviously artificially modified, and its strength is not trivial, it feels similar to the Skeletron you have seen before. ”
Even Hela commented on it, it seems that she is very similar to Skeletron under the Red Iron Canyon, and this is not only reflected in her appearance.
Anyway, since it takes an opportunity to wake up, the last time Skeletron suddenly woke up, was it because he felt the existence of his mortal enemy, An Yizhi? It's also too ......
"Hela, you said it was artificially modified, how did you do it?"
"It's very simple, just gather the negative energy through the magic device and pour it in, the negative energy level in this tomb is so low, it's not all the function of the purification stone tablet outside. This method is very demanding on the corpse, and the corpse of the average person cannot hold such a large amount of negative energy. ”
Hela flew up and searched for a while, landed on the coffin board that had been overturned and fell to the ground, and pointed to a depression in the middle:
"Here, take a closer look."
After being reminded by Hela, Ann pointed to see a very inconspicuous rune leaking out of the place she was pointing to, and it was different in color from the stone coffin.
Hela scraped with her claws to peel off the plaster, revealing a square underneath, presumably some kind of magic prop, embedded deep in the coffin board and right on the skeleton's chest.
"I almost lost my eyes, this device can not only collect negative energy, but also isolate the impact of negative energy on the skeleton inside the coffin."
Hela said and pecked Ann's fingered hand:
"Don't mess with it, there's a spell on it, and it'll explode if you mess around."
An retracted his hand with a finger, he thought it could be used as something like strange equipment......
The first lord of Lopven had no burial goods, and unlike Skeletron's time, his coffin contained nothing but green bones, only strips of rags that had turned to dust.
That's poor......
However, speaking of Skeletron, An Yizhi felt that he must have something to do with the current state of the first city lord of Lopwen.
He clearly remembered that before Skeletron's tomb, there was a devil's clone guarding it.
At that time, it was originally said to prevent Skeletron from being found, and the man who was looking for Skeletron was also a mortal enemy of the devil, that is, a demon.
(See chapters 50~51 for details)
And this time, the magical image of the Dark Lord that had just appeared not long ago proved that this miserable green skeleton was the work of demons.
And in addition to the similarity of colors, there are many things in common between the two, the biggest one is that they were both once 'kings'.
So, what is the purpose of the devil in attacking the remains of the king?
An Yizhi felt as if he had touched the edge of a big task again, but due to the lack of information, he had no clue at all, and these systems alone would not prompt him what task he received, and it was still far away.
What is certain at the moment is that these guys, who were once kings and are now skeleton kings, are all the work of the dark lord and are the product of a conspiracy of his kind.
The devil who resembled the devil most was not one of those who only had a hard head in his head, and although the title seemed more like a humiliation to the devil, Grazt himself was very proud of it.
It's a demon who doesn't like to fight head-on, but likes to plot, almost the same way the devil acts, so it's no wonder he has that name.
He wasn't as easy to deal with as the average Dark Invader, and even if he was as powerful as the gods, the most unavoidable thing was naturally the conspiracy brewed by his evil wisdom.
Especially at the end, he looked at Ann with a glance and the sentence 'Do a good job, don't let me down'.
He was obviously aware of An Yizhi's existence, and the last sentence must have been said to An Yizhi.
In this way, it was not strange for him to guess that An Yizhi had found the coffin of the first city lord of Lopvin, but what did he want An Yizhi to do?
Want him to help activate this Skeletron?
Collaborating with demons is tantamount to killing himself, and Ann is not stupid, but he can't figure out Grazt's intentions.
Activating this skeleton is also good for Ann Yizhi to complete the task, after all, Skeletron's strength is there, but doing so is tantamount to following the demon's wishes......
Leave it alone? But who can guarantee that this was not in Grazt's plan?
The incessant rhetoric is fruitless, and An Yizhi finally decides......
