Being a lord in another world begins with farming

Chapter 291 The Castle and the Undead

As soon as they walked out of that weird road, before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, they were startled by the eerie old castle surrounded by bats.

Most of the secret realms are filled with various natural environments, and you will encounter goblins, ogres and other monsters.

But it is not that there are no buildings, but you have to be careful once you encounter them. Whether they are ruins or something, they often represent danger, let alone the castle in front of you that almost has the word "Haunted Mansion Paradise" on it.

"Why is there such a strong rancid smell?" There were rangers among the students, and they consciously walked at the front. At this time, a small wind blew, and they smelled the smell coming from the castle, and they almost vomited on the spot.

However, the rancid smell not only brought nausea, but also unknown dangers, so the students' faces became serious. Instead, Sylvia showed a smile, which made Robert beside him tremble a little, but he I couldn't do anything, so I became more and more confused.

"Everyone, get ready for battle." There were many students with amazing intuition. At this time, they had noticed that the situation was not good and began to remind the students around them, but their reminders only made the atmosphere more tense.

Because Sylvia didn't say a word, and Robert acted as a cold-faced loyal dog, no one stepped forward to organize the battle. The other students did not have enough prestige, so they could only recruit familiar people to form their own team. Needless to say, the effect was better than nothing. .

Everyone who felt the danger became vigilant and took weapons in their hands. Owen was no exception and took out a puppet.

The triangular eyes full of wickedness and the mouth full of fangs that extend from ear to ear, paired with a high-end tuxedo, an elegant top hat, and a black umbrella in his hand, give people a very weird feeling, both elegant and evil. Even if it’s a bit scary, I can’t help but take a second look. It looks like a villain full of evil charm in fairy tales. The most important thing is that it matches the spooky castle in front of me.

Many students unconsciously stayed away from Owen, fearing that he was an undercover agent sent from the opposite side, otherwise no one in their right mind would create such a puppet. On the contrary, Sylvia nodded slightly and agreed with his aesthetics.

Because it was very dark here, Owen and the others did not notice that there were cemeteries of all sizes around them. At this time, the cemetery near them was like a wake-up bell, and the undead who had been sleeping restlessly got up one after another and moved around. Stiff muscles and bones surrounded them.

"It's the undead!" A ranger with half-elf blood discovered the enemy immediately, and reacted very quickly to shoot the arrow in his hand, accurately hitting the target, but the result made his face look even more ugly.

The undead look like their skin is rotten, but in fact they are much tougher than ordinary people under the influence of the power of death. It is difficult for swords to pierce, let alone arrows, and the undead, which are harmless in themselves, are almost immune to bows and arrows. It's okay if they are inserted all the way, unless they are so powerful that the undead's body is shattered, otherwise they are just an extra decoration, so if there is no other way in the next battle, all the shooters will be almost useless.

The undead surrounding them from all directions made the students almost despair, because there were so many of them, there were almost hundreds of them densely packed.

"Damn it, who brought the holy water!" A swordsman professional student also saw this scene. At this time, he lowered his head and looked at the carefully maintained stainless steel sword in his hand, and shouted with both weakness and despair.

After all, he is also a student in the academy city. As long as he is not a scumbag, he can learn information about most monsters from basic subjects, including the undead.

So they knew very well that if there was no targeted means, the solution could only be solved by completely destroying the body of the undead.

If you are unlucky enough to encounter a ghost, you can only rely on the casters among your teammates to be powerful enough.

The problem is that although they are known as geniuses, they are limited by their age. At present, they can only activate fighting spirit and master magic power. They can deal with ordinary enemies, and they can even cooperate well. However, they can face the near-immortal bodies and the undead that they don’t know what to fear. , it is inevitable to be in a hurry.

It's not an academy test right now. If you fail, you'll have to retake the exam. If you neglect it, they will have nothing to do in the future.

Fortunately, someone actually prepared holy water. These people hurriedly applied the holy water to their weapons and breathed a sigh of relief. Only Sylvia frowned in disgust.

The effect of the holy water is not permanent, and it will be troublesome if it dries out after a while. In addition, the speed of the undead is not as slow as expected. In order to ensure that the formation will not be disrupted, the students of the melee profession rushed forward to fight.

I have to say that although there is some lack of experience, the courage is still commendable.

The weapon smeared with holy water dissipated the power of death from the undead, making the rotten skin and flesh soft again. With a sword strike, pus splashed everywhere, and the rotten smell almost turned into a thick mist and was applied to the face, making A group of students who had been enthusiastic just now turned pale on the spot. Many of them slashed and sprayed on the undead's face, and then watched helplessly as the fun they sprayed fell into the undead's open mouth.

It can be said that it has no lethality and is extremely insulting. In other words, the undead are generous and still take their time. If it were a human warrior, they would definitely spit on your face whether you believe it or not.

This disgusting scene gave up the idea of ​​Owen getting involved, and he was still observing because he had not yet figured out what Sylvia was doing.

The Academy City acquiesces in treating students as cannon fodder in the secret realm, because these students need more resources if they want to grow, and it is obviously not possible to rely solely on the Academy City.

In this way, gaining rewards through those noble students and taking risks has become the best choice.

As for the dangers encountered in this process, they are a normal price, and everyone is prepared.

But it doesn’t mean that someone like Sylvia has an ulterior motive to trick everyone to death without paying any price.

The Academy City allows some casualties, but it will not tolerate this situation. Otherwise, if we continue to learn this way, how many students will be left? Therefore, even though Sylvia is the daughter of the Grand Duke, she will give the Academy City a Satisfactory explanation.

Yes, I'm just explaining that as long as the price is right, Academy City will not pursue it.

It is a cruel fact, but very realistic. All life is marked with a price. Sylvia from the famous brand is very expensive, but others are very cheap.

Even so, the asking price of the Academy City is not low. After all, it is not only a matter of human life, but the most important thing is that the prestige and face of the Academy City are affected. This is relatively expensive, even if the daughter of the Grand Duke wants to pay a price that satisfies the Academy City. It's very painful, it may even affect your status in the family, and the price is high.

But Sylvia still did it, and the only reason was that the gain was greater than the effort.

So the question is, what is in the castle in front of her that makes Sylvia choose to take a gamble?

And with Owen's strength, the castle in front of him actually put a lot of pressure on him.

You must know that Owen is no different now than before. He has been accumulating progress points since the North. He has now completed an exchange of fifty progress points and multiple targeted exchanges. In addition to not reaching the legendary level, he is not comparable to ordinary professionals in any aspect. of.

So places that can make him feel pressure, even if they are not legendary, are not far off.
