Virtue is abundant

Chapter 53 The War of the Kingdom of Death

total darkness.

Wu Xiaode opened his eyes, only to see himself standing in the rocky wasteland.

There was smoke all around.

Something peeped from afar in the darkness.

The Book of the Undead was opened immediately, revealing lines of small words written in ice crystals:

"Your upper limit of soul power has reached 10 points."

"This is a watershed in strength. You need to play for the kingdom of death, and you can only get further promotion after you win."

Serving the realm of the dead...

Hell, I'm alive.

Just as Wu Xiaode thought this way, he saw misty mist emerging from the void, covering himself as softly as a gauze.

Silent magic fog!

It has already taken effect automatically!

Wu Xiaode sensed it briefly, and found that this time it didn't materialize into anything, but covered itself in the magic mist with its own death breath.

--why?Did it notice something?
next second.

A voice came from afar:
"Scared me, I thought it was a living person."

Wu Xiaode looked back.

In the wilderness, a skeleton wearing metal armor slowly walked towards him.

Skeletons...talking...

It seemed that he was really regarded as a dead person.

Perhaps in the long and endless time, no one ever thought that the people who entered the death cave could survive.

"Who are you?" Wu Xiaode asked.

The skeleton snorted and said, "I am a genius master of the skeleton clan, who are you?"

"Human, dead." Wu Xiaode said.

"Nonsense! I see it! I'm asking for your name!" shouted the skeleton.

"Qian Junde." Wu Xiaode said.

"That's about the same, how is your strength?" Skull asked.

"I have 10 points of soul power." Wu Xiaode said.

Holding his forehead, the skeleton said helplessly, "We all have 10 soul power, that's why we were summoned to this battlefield, idiot."

It seems to have judged Wu Xiaode, it said loudly:

"Listen well, rookies, we must guard our positions and not let any other camps enter the kingdom of death. As long as we hold on for an hour, we will complete this trial."

"Just the two of us?" Wu Xiaode said.

"Yes, this mound is our position." The skeleton said.

Wu Xiaode looked around, and saw mounds of earth farther away, with different undead monsters standing beside each mound.

Next to the nearest mound, stood two skeletons and a tall man holding a staff.

The tall man's complexion was not very good, it looked blue and black.

"That's a lich, what a pity, why didn't I get to be with the lich?" The skeleton said half enviously, half jealously.

"If the position is destroyed, we have failed, right?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"Not only that, but we will completely fall into a deep sleep of death! So you must be serious, kid, and don't drag me down to fail the trial." The skeleton said.

"Who will try to break through our position?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"Anyone is possible—who doesn't want to enter the kingdom of death to see what happened? Some people even want to snatch some souls from the kingdom of death." The skeleton said.

The skeleton said, and looked to the other side.

Wu Xiaode followed its gaze, and saw a few three-headed dogs squatting on the other side of the ground, their bodies burning with blazing flames.

"It would be great if there was a three-headed dog to partner with me...Why do I only have one dead boy here." The skeleton murmured again.

"Hey, it seems that something is coming." Wu Xiaode said.

The skeleton suddenly came back to his senses, and looked towards the front of the position.

I saw a humanoid existence completely made of flames appearing in the deep darkness. It had a pair of long wings and two horns on its head. It flew in the air and shouted loudly:

"Go, my children, attack the defense line of the kingdom of death, let those skeletons and dead dogs know, never come to provoke us!"

In the wilderness far away.

A dense mass of cavalry appeared.

They all had horns on their heads, wore full body armor, and rode a kind of fire-breathing war horse, and began to charge towards the position here.

The Book of the Undead was shocked, and lines of small ice crystal characters suddenly appeared:

"The trial has begun."

"For an hour, you need to hold your position so it won't be destroyed."

"If you succeed, you will obtain the source of death, so that you can continue to increase the upper limit of your soul power."

"If you fail, you will fall into the abyss of the kingdom of death and enter eternal sleep, unless someone calls you again."

Before Wu Xiaode finished watching, the painful groan of the skeleton sounded in his ears:

"Damn it, why is it the demon lord? It is the most popular master in the demon camp, now we are finished..."

Wu Xiaode didn't say a word, his eyes turned around.

Near the other soil pockets, the death-type ghosts in charge of defense were a little downcast.

That guy is strong?
Just looking at the dense cavalry on the wasteland, I knew that this was a tough battle.

"How is the strength of those cavalry?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"Each one has at least 10 points of soul power." The skeleton said.

"It seems that this battle is full of people, and one or two people can't decide the direction of this battle." Wu Xiaode judged.

"That's true, I can only fight." The eyes of the skeleton shone with a faint light of unwillingness.

The black army pressed forward.

The horses galloped, and the ground trembled uncontrollably.

Wu Xiaode's thoughts flashed, and he suddenly thought of a way.

At the same time, the mist covering his body seemed to understand his mind and spread around.

Silently, mist enveloped the position.

"Boy, is this fog your ability?" Skull watched coldly from the sidelines.

"What is your ability?" Wu Xiaode asked back.

"Hmph, I can hug the enemy and die with him with the flames of death!" the skeleton proudly said.

Wu Xiaode was startled.

——Is there anyone who chooses to die together in a fight these days?

"Are you scared? Let me tell you, don't mess with me!" the skeleton said viciously.

"It's really... so powerful, I will never mess with you." Wu Xiaode looked at it with the eyes of a monster and said.

A long horn sounded.

The cavalry army gradually began to speed up.

"Stop talking nonsense, you are on the left and we are on the right, and we each guard one side." The skeleton said.

"The demon plundering lord is already in charge, where's the boss on our side?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"I don't know. I haven't appeared all this time. I don't know what's going on." The skeleton also said worriedly.

"Damn it, we don't even have a boss, how do we fight this?" Wu Xiaode said.

"We can only fight to the death!" the skeleton shouted.

"I can't hold it," Wu Xiaode judged calmly, "Brother, for an entire hour, do you think we can hold these broken stones?"

"Otherwise?" Skeleton asked him back.

"I have a way, it depends on whether you are willing to cooperate."

"any solution?"

Wu Xiaode found a relatively flat place, lay down and did not move.

Even the Cyclops will be blinded by the fog, so that they cannot see their movements clearly.

Besides, this fog is the manifestation of one's own mind.

It must understand itself!

Wu Xiaode thought silently.

Sure enough, the mist gradually enveloped him, lingering on him for a while, turning into a few bloody wounds, and even a ready-made spear——

Like the spears in the hands of those demon cavalry——

It was inserted fiercely on Wu Xiaode's chest.

But the spear was broken, lest there really be a demon cavalry to take the spear away.

In short.

It looked like he was finished.

Wu Xiaode is very satisfied with this effect on himself.

Now he has also somewhat grasped the power of the 0-level silent magic fog——

Whether it is manifesting a shot put or a pistol, changing into a mist covering the wall or posing in an SB shape, and the tragic death at this moment——

The main quality of the silent magic fog at level 0 is "illusion".

What's more valuable is that the way it displays "illusion" is not so common, and it can even be said to be quite spiritual, which is unique in the world.

——In order to achieve the goal of "killing the game", it will do everything possible!

The skeleton watched from the side, and his mind was gradually filled with question marks.

"Hey, why are you pretending to be dead before the fight starts?" it asked dissatisfied.

"Our position is just a small bag of soil. To hold the position for an hour, the best way is that no one comes to attack the position, and the position will naturally be defended." Wu Xiaode closed his eyes and said.

The skeleton froze.

"Then what if the demon cavalry passed by the position?" it asked.

"The key to this position is not a small soil bag, the key is you and me - as long as we live, the position will be there." Wu Xiaode said.

"That's right, people are in the position." Skeleton nodded.

Yup!

The soil bag is not important!
After all, the goal of the mission is to keep watch for an hour!
To be in a position, to be alive, to hold out for an hour.

Mission accomplished!

The skeleton jumped up and said, "Dude! My good buddy, can you help me?"

"Lie down." Wu Xiaode spit out a word.

Throwing the shield in his hand, the skeleton immediately found a place, lay down on the ground and began to dismantle his own bones.

It dismantled itself to pieces, leaving only a skull with will-o'-the-wisps.

Now we have a problem.

"Good buddy, as long as our skeletons have ghost fire, it shows that we still have fighting power. Look at this—"

The mist descended, hugging the skull lightly.

I saw a few long cracks appearing on the skull of the skull, and the will-o'-the-wisps in its eye sockets disappeared——

There is even a hard dagger stuck in it.

The sword is broken.

Prevent someone from pulling it out.

The skeleton said: "Thank you, good buddy."

"Shut up, the cavalry is coming." Wu Xiaode adjusted a more comfortable posture.

"Of order, good buddy." Skull said.

There was silence on the battlefield.

after awhile.

The sound of weapons clashing, the roar of spells, the neighing of war horses, and the screams of monsters came from all around.

The entire battlefield was in chaos.

"Kill them all!"

The voice of the demon lord resounded across the battlefield.

The cavalry began to attack the positions of the undead crazily!

There was no movement on Wu Xiaode's side, nor was there any spells fired, and there were no undead holding weapons.

——So there were no cavalry to attack.

About ten minutes passed.

A parabola fell far away, hitting Wu Xiaode and the skeleton's position.

It was a three-headed dog.

It barely got up, roared out, and was about to rush out again immediately.

I saw seven or eight war horses rushing forward.

The demon knights on the horse waved their spears and threw them forward——

The three-headed dog was immediately nailed to the ground by the spear, struggled for a while, and then stopped moving.

It lay between Wu Xiaode and the skeleton.

The demon knights looked at this pitifully small and crude position.

A dead man, a dead skeleton, a dead dog.

Three consecutive deaths.

Get it!

The demon knights urged their horses forward, put away their spears, and turned around to attack other places without looking at the already breached position.

After a few minutes.

"Hey, there's a dog here, what should we do? Will it affect us playing dead?" The skeleton whispered.

"No, don't you think it will make the situation here more realistic?" Wu Xiaode also whispered.

"...It seems to be the same."

The skeleton relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief.

Fight everywhere on the battlefield.

Occasionally, when a demon knight turns around, he will see a dead man, a dead skeleton, and a dead dog lying here.

The blood on the dead dog was still flowing.

Seeing this situation, the demon knights immediately turned their mounts and went to other places to kill.

The situation intensified.

Corpses are everywhere.

There are positions in the kingdom of death that are constantly being broken by demon knights.

The roar of spells, the clash of weapons, and the screams of monsters before they died kept ringing out.

But in the position guarded by Wu Xiaode, gradually no demon knights rushed over.
