Congratulations on being an NPC

Chapter 189 Crystals
Now that it has been made clear that it is impossible to get any ammunition supplies.

Then, melee combat is obviously something that has to be faced.

In close combat, the weapons that Arno can use are nothing more than long swords and hidden arrows.

Compared with the long sword, the Xiujian is obviously still a little bit worse.

If it's used for a sneak attack, it's okay, but if it's used for a head-on battle, it's obviously not as good as a long sword.

Of course, Yano may not necessarily be able to fight now.

It's just that Yano subconsciously showed precautions against the abnormality of the corpse's wound turning white.

If something happens suddenly, it is obviously better to be prepared than not to be prepared.

Putting your hand on the sword can also make it easier to swing the blade faster.

At this time, Arno had to feel the benefits of not having a scabbard. Although the sword may be easier to hurt himself, it also saves the time to draw the sword.

It may not be obvious in the low-end game, but as long as it enters the high-end game, the time to draw the sword is enough to determine the outcome of a battle, or even the life and death of two people.

So, there are pros and cons.

At least, for Yano now, the benefits are more obvious.

Although, he is not a high-end sword master, but a rookie who is not good at close combat.

"..."

Arno watched the changes in the corpse with bated breath.

His eyesight was good, even from a distance, he could still see the color change of the corpse.

Although it has reached this level of snow white, the color seems to be still deepening.

To what extent it can be stopped, Yano is not clear.

There is only one thing that is certain, and that is that the current situation is very strange.

Generally speaking, with so many residual functions, can a corpse still color its own wound?
Or is this an ability unique to corpses?A certain part of his body is responsible for this "coloring" step?Will it work after death?

No matter how Yano thinks here, he doesn't understand biology, let alone a biological constitution that doesn't know anything.

- Click.

At this moment, Arno seemed to hear something.

The sound was very slight, like the sound of something breaking, and Yano felt a little familiar.

After a while, he remembered.

Isn't that the sound of shattering glass?

It's just that there should be no glass in this place.

Even if there is, the glass in the laboratory should be very hard, and it won't just shatter suddenly.

Therefore, although this sound sounds like the sound of glass, it is not actually the sound of glass, but a similar sound.

So, what exactly is the sound?

Arno looked in the direction of the voice.

——In fact, there is no need to look specifically, because the voice was originally from the direction he was looking at.

It was the sound of a corpse.

Moreover, Yano was sure that the location where the sound came from was the location of the wound where the corpse had mutated.

At first it was a change in color, followed by a change in sound.

No matter from which angle you look at it, this corpse looks extremely strange.

"what's going on?"

Arno's hand was already on the hilt of the sword.

As long as the corpse moves, Yano will definitely swing the long sword in his hand without hesitation.

Although Arno was not good at wielding a sword, he didn't think he could do what Nanasaki did.

However, it shouldn't be a problem to chop the corpse into seven or eight pieces.

However, Yano waited for a long time, but did not wait for any changes in the body.

Although this made Yano slightly relieved, it didn't make him relax his vigilance.

Because, although the corpse did not move at this time, the changes in the corpse did not end there.

- click,

It's still the same voice, but it's different from before. Now this voice is not just one.

click,
clack clack...

Voices rang in Arno's ears one after another.

If the previous sound is compared to the sound of glass breaking, then the current sound is that the glass is not only broken, but also countless feet have been stepped on it.

Originally, this sound was not harsh, but once it continued like this, it became extremely harsh.

Even Yano couldn't help but frowned again, wondering if he should slice the corpse in advance.

Fortunately, the voice from the corpse disappeared quickly.

But the disappearance of the voice doesn't mean the mutation is over.

Arno saw that the whiteness there began to spread towards the whole body of the corpse at an astonishing speed.

The scene that Yano was worried about before has actually become a reality at this moment.

I have to say that this scene looks not only surreal, but also quite disgusting.

- Click.

At this time, the sound of glass shattering sounded again.

This time seemed to be the last click, and the sound of the glass did not appear again after that.

Instead, white not only began to spread towards the body, but the color also began to become three-dimensional and transparent.

From Arnold's point of view, it looks like a crystal.

"……crystal?"

Yano froze for a moment, then stood up abruptly.

Yes, it is crystal.

Yano understood the effect of the mutation in this corpse.

That's not "colouring" but changing.

Perform an iteration on your original dead body to gain another life.

And this iteration, it is bound to need to give up the composition of most life forms such as the flesh, and it is necessary to seek another composition of life forms.

Obviously, crystal is a good choice.

Things like crystals seem to be very fragile, and a single piece of crystal seems to shatter if touched with a finger.

But if the thickness of the crystal is enough to form an entire human body, it will be different.

Crystals at that level are pretty hard -- at least as far as Imperial crystals are concerned.

Among the crystals of the empire, there is a special material, and this material looks like nothing.

But as long as the content of this material increases, the hardness and sturdiness of the crystal will also increase.

Ordinary swords will be almost useless to that kind of crystal by then.

And since this monster ran out of the empire's laboratory, if he wanted to become a crystal, he would naturally become the crystal of the empire.

"Damn."

No matter from which point of view, for Yano, this is a troublesome thing.

Therefore, the first time he realized what the change in the corpse was for, Yano swung his sword at the corpse that was turning into crystal without hesitation.

--when.

However, by the time Arno's blade touched the corpse, that part had already turned into crystal.

The degree of firmness is really not covered.
