Apocalyptic Hero System

The death of the skeleton mage was not loud, because the old skeleton was seriously injured, and his fire of life was actually very weak. The moment the knife was inserted into his bird's nest, his life dropped to zero.

Li Yuanhong quickly cleaned the battlefield. He knew that the servant was being followed. If the follower hadn't wanted to go back to report the news, Li Yuanhong would not have dared to delay like this.

Li Yuanhong plundered all the things on the old magician's body, then put the servant's body into his own space, and finally hung the jade plate marking the skeleton mage's identity on the skeleton mage's waist again. Then he checked again, then wiped out his footprints and exited the basement.

Not long after Li Yuanhong left, several soldiers, led by Chen Shaokun, soon came to this dilapidated temple. They quickly found the basement. Everyone entered the basement cautiously. At this time, only the The corpse of the old demon skeleton mage sitting on the bed was still sitting cross-legged because Li Yuanhong assassinated him too quickly.

Young Marshal Kun, there is only one skeleton inside, and nothing else. The people below came up to report after completing the search.

Oh? There is only one skeleton. Does that skeleton have any symbol? Chen Shaokun asked.

The report to the young marshal is a tattered skeleton. It must have been dead for many years, and even the flesh is gone, the soldier said.

Okay, you guys stay here and I'll go down and take a look! Chen Shaokun knew that there was no danger below, so he walked down.

The basement is relatively dark, with only an oil lamp placed on the wall for illumination. Fortunately, the underground space is not large, so you can still see the things inside relatively clearly. At this time, the most abrupt thing in the entire space is the one in the corner. The bed, and the skeleton on the bed.

Chen Shaokun walked up to the skeleton and found that the skeleton was in dilapidated condition. No wonder his men mistakenly thought it was left over from ancient times. If he didn't know that there was a national master here, he would have mistaken this skeleton for some ancient tomb. of dry bones.

Chen Shaokun quickly rummaged through the withered bones, and finally found the waistband on the withered bones' waist. It seemed that the old skeleton died of serious injuries here, just in time to avoid doing it himself. Thinking of this, Chen Shaokun took off his belt card and put it in his pocket, then ordered someone to wrap up the pile of dead bones and wait for the palace. As for the missing servant, Chen Shaokun didn't pay attention to it from the beginning. In his concept , it doesn’t matter whether that servant exists or not.

Chen Shaokun came to the palace and started conspiring with his uncle in the secret room.

Kun'er, how are you? Are things going smoothly? Emperor Chen asked anxiously.

Uncle, everything went well, and we didn't do anything. The old skeleton died on his own. Chen Shaokun said excitedly.

What? Did he die by himself? Emperor Chen was also stunned.

Yes, he died by himself. I have seen his body. The old skeleton is covered with battle scars and there are many signs of corrosion. It is estimated that he suffered serious injuries on the battlefield and did not survive it. , the injury occurred, and he died before we could take action. Chen Shaokun said.

Okay, hahaha, God helps me. Now we don't have to worry about the skeleton knight causing trouble for us. Kun'er, you must keep that skeleton safe. It is evidence, important evidence. By the way, that skeleton's Have you found the token?

Here! Chen Shaokun took out the jade plaque from his arms and handed it to Emperor Chen.

Hahaha, great, we finally don't have to be angry with those monsters! Emperor Chen could finally laugh loudly. Since becoming the puppet emperor, he has always worn a mask, for fear of causing trouble with his actions. The national master was dissatisfied, and he lived cautiously every day. Today, the shackles were finally gone, and he could finally feel proud.

At this time, in a government building in New Delhi, India, the Skeleton Knight was furious: That puppet dared to sneak attack on our great Necromancer, I will cut him into pieces!

Sir, please let me lead the troops to attack him! said a skeleton knight with a sword next to him.

No, we can't put the manager on their side now. Those hellboys to the west of us are infiltrating towards us and want to dig up several ancient tombs in West Asia. We must rush to dig those ancient tombs before them. Excavated, if there is something we are looking for in those ancient tombs, it will be broken! At this time, the flames in the Skeleton Knight's eyes returned to calm.

The Master Mage's hatred...

Sooner or later we have to avenge the Master Mage. Their little humanity can't figure it out yet. Let's let them run around for two days now. Once our work to the west is completed, I will make sure none of them are left alive. Skeleton Knight road.

Yes, I understand, Lord Knight!

Well, you go down and organize the expeditionary force as soon as possible.

Yes, sir! The skeleton knight walked out of the door.

Emperor Chen didn't know that he had carried a big pot for Li Yuanhong and left the ashes at the bottom of the pot. He didn't know that he had just escaped a disaster and could live a comfortable life in peace and stability. However, the Skeleton Knight let him go for the time being, but Li Yuanhong's troops advanced rapidly and were not far from Turpan.

Reporting to your majesty, the Chinese army has advanced to a place less than fifty kilometers away from Turpan. Turpan is requesting support!

A day after Emperor Chen became emperor on his own initiative, he received the news he least wanted to see.

Withdraw the troops, let them withdraw the troops! Bring me all the supplies from Turpan! Emperor Chen had no intention of sending a single soldier to fight. Not even 10 million zombies could stop the Chinese soldiers. The tens of thousands of people in Turpan, It was not enough to fill the gap between people's teeth, so Emperor Chen decisively ordered the withdrawal of troops.

Hurry up and recruit Shaokun to the palace! The second thing Emperor Chen did was to call his nephew to his secret room.

Uncle, what do you want from me? Chen Shaokun asked.

Shaokun, how was the arrangement for your retreat yesterday? Emperor Chen asked.

Uncle has already made arrangements. With just one order, all the supplies I have prepared can be evacuated, Chen Shaokun said.

Okay, hurry up and arrange a convoy of supplies to set off now and transport everything that can be transported away, including those scientists. They must not be left behind by the Chinese army. Emperor Chen said.

Yes, uncle, then should I accompany the car to escort you? Chen Shaokun's eyes revealed a cunning light.

You can just go with the car! You can't help here. Emperor Chen's eyes were hesitant, but after saying this, the trace of hesitation disappeared, revealing a gentle light.

Yes, then I'll leave now. After Chen Shaokun said that, he couldn't wait to walk out of the room.

As soon as Chen Shaokun walked out of the room, a communications officer ran over: Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something serious has happened!

Why are you so panicked? Emperor Chen's face sank and he asked in a stern voice.

Sorry, Your Majesty, the city of Turpan has been lost, and all the defenders have been wiped out! the communications officer reported.

What? Total destruction? Didn't they ask them to retreat? How could they be completely wiped out? This made Emperor Chen very puzzled.

This...the other party didn't say it in the communication. The communication officer said in a panic. Obviously, this reason could easily make the emperor angry.

Sure enough, Emperor Chen burst out in anger: What a bunch of rubbish, what a bunch of rubbish, what do you think you can figure out? Raising a bunch of pigs is more economical than you!

Although Emperor Chen was very angry, he did not lose his mind and did not pull the communication officer out and kill him. After scolding him, Emperor Chen said to the communication channel: Get out of here and give me the enemy's updates. Figure it out, and if you make any mistakes, watch your head!

Yes, yes! The communications officer was so frightened that he ran out peeing. If he had stayed a little longer, the communications officer might have peed on the spot.

After scolding, Emperor Chen calmed down. He was very close to Turpan. Since Turpan was lost, enemy troops would arrive soon. The reason why he, the emperor, did not leave now was not because he was so great, but because he wanted to fight the enemy. In the end, he wanted to buy some time for his nephew. In addition, he had to deal with the ministers who usually opposed him, which all took time.

It was already nightfall, and it was estimated that the other party would not attack overnight, so he could start to ransack the homes of those Afghans, and also deal with those who usually spoke ill of him behind his back.

When Emperor Chen was thinking about how to trick his opponent, another person came to the basement where the imperial master died. This person was Li Yuanhong. He wanted to find a way to rescue the slaves here before Emperor Chen withdrew. This You need to find a way to prevent the enemy from removing the slaves. The best way is to directly send people to liberate the slaves from the inside, and cooperate with the attack from the outside.

Of course, Li Yuanhong would not be so arrogant as to want to stop Emperor Chen from evacuating the slaves alone, so he wanted to bring people in from outside. Before his death, the old skeleton mage said that there was a secret passage leading to the outside in the basement. Li Yuanhong thought Find it out and then bring your own people in through the secret passage.

Li Yuanhong had been in the basement for two full hours. There was almost nothing in the basement. Li Yuanhong almost dismantled the wooden bed, but still could not find the switch to open the secret passage.

Is that old skeleton lying to me? Li Yuanhong said to himself.

It shouldn't, it shouldn't. In order to survive at that time, it was impossible for him to tell false information. Once I agreed to take him out, and the secret passage was fake, it would definitely arouse his suspicion, and he was already seriously injured and couldn't move at that time. In this case, he cannot be too far away from the secret passage, so the secret passage must be in this room. Li Yuanhong thought about it carefully again and thought that the old skeleton was not lying.

So he looked at all the places again. Li Yuanhong even raised the wooden bed and looked at it. There was nothing there. He also looked at the oil lamp for lighting, and even looked at the ground carefully. There was nothing abnormal. So what? Where?

Li Yuanhong scanned the basement, and suddenly Li Yuanhong saw the oil lamp, which reminded Li Yuanhong of a sentence, that is, it is dark under the lamp. I just checked the oil lamp, but I did not carefully check the platform where the oil lamp is placed. Most people think that the mechanism will never be placed in the brightest place, but some people go the other way. So, under the oil lamp, that is the darkest place. The place.

Li Yuanhong walked under the platform, which was slightly higher than his line of sight. This further confirmed Li Yuanhong's guess. Generally, the place where the oil lamp was placed was not higher than the head, but it was different from the norm there. There must be something fishy here.

Li Yuanhong took out a chair from the space, then stood on it. Sure enough, he found something abnormal in the corner of the platform where the oil lamp was placed, so Li Yuanhong tried to press that corner, and sure enough, he was pressed there, and then he heard a crunch With a loud sound, the wall next to the oil lamp platform opened a door, a door leading to the secret passage.
