Chapter 18

If Zhou Wen didn't have a mobile phone and a copy of the game, he wouldn't have gone deep into the ancient city. That would be playing with his own life, and there was no need for that.

But now it is different. He can go deep into the game copy, first figure out the situation in the ancient imperial city, and then enter the ancient city by himself. Naturally, he will be familiar with it and there will be less risks.

Similar to the information and map provided by the school, the area near the north city gate is full of skeleton soldiers. These skeleton soldiers are only slightly stronger than adult men who have not practiced cultivation. They can only be beaten by high school students who have practiced cultivation. Unless you seek death and rush into the group of skeleton soldiers, there will generally not be much danger.

Zhou Wen didn't have so many concerns. He let the bloody man ride on the mutant powerful ants and charge forward. Even if he encountered a group of more than a dozen skeleton soldiers, the mutant powerful ants could easily kill them. There was no need for Zhou Wen to control the bloody man to take action.

Soon, Zhou Wen rushed out of the map provided by the school.

The ancient city is full of stone streets and ancient buildings one after another. The further you go inside, the older the style of the ancient buildings becomes.

Zhou Wen only dared to walk along the street, not enter the ancient buildings that lined the street. School had taught him repeatedly that it was best not to enter buildings in other-dimensional areas. Many buildings were connected to dimensional rifts, and entering them would likely lead to getting lost in the other dimension.

The drop rate of the Skeleton Soldiers was too low. Zhou Wen had killed at least two hundred Skeleton Soldiers, but except for the first one, not a single one dropped.

Zhou Wen was not surprised by this. He had heard before that the level of the skeleton soldiers was too low and they could rarely condense dimensional crystals.

Although the Withered Bone Palm is weak, there are not many people who can actually obtain the Withered Bone Palm crystal.

While he was thinking, he suddenly saw a group of skeletal soldiers on the stone street in front of him. There were as many as twenty or thirty of them. This was the largest group of skeletal soldiers Zhou Wen had seen since he came in.

Unlike the previous group of skeleton soldiers, that group of skeleton soldiers was actually surrounding a skeleton general who was riding a skeleton horse and holding a bone spear.

The skeleton general riding the skeleton horse was obviously much taller and more majestic than the ordinary skeleton soldiers, at least a head taller than the ordinary skeleton soldiers, and his bones were particularly thick. Not only was their color grayish white, but they had an ivory-like luster.

His clothes and armor were tattered, but he had a dark red cloak on his back. Although it was a bit worn, it was still intact.

The bone spear was more than two meters long, and the spear body was a little uneven, but the tip was as sharp as a thorn, and it also had a bone groove. If you were stabbed by the bone spear, you would probably bleed profusely.

When Zhou Wen saw him, he also saw the blood-colored man and the mutant powerful ant controlled by Zhou Wen. However, he did not pounce on them like ordinary extra-dimensional creatures. He still sat firmly on the skeleton horse, as if he was disdainful of taking action, while the group of skeleton soldiers rushed up like wolves and tigers.

The mutant powerful ant waved its front claws like two scythes of the god of death, cutting off the bodies of the skeleton soldiers in one circle and killing nearly ten skeleton soldiers in a moment.

The guy riding the skeleton horse finally couldn't help it. He roared to the sky, made a terrifying and teeth-grinding cry, and then urged the horse to sprint forward quickly.

The speed of the skeleton horse was far beyond the reach of ordinary skeleton soldiers, and even surprised Zhou Wen. It was much faster than the mutant powerful ants and the bloody men. It was like a tornado rushing over, and was not slower than the silver-winged flying ants.

In the blink of an eye, the skeleton horse ran in front of the mutant powerful ant. Zhou Wen ordered the mutant powerful ant to wave its claws and rush forward, wanting to use the mutant powerful ant's two claws to control the bone spear, and then let the bloody man fly over and hit his head.

But who knew that the bone spear would suddenly accelerate, and the tip of the spear became blurred in Zhou Wen's sight, as if it disappeared for a moment.

When Zhou Wen looked again, the bone spear had already pierced through the claws of the mutant powerful ant and stabbed into the chest of the bloody man.

puff!

Blood splattered out, and the bloody little man turned over and fell off the back of the mutant powerful ant. The game screen also turned black, obviously he was shot dead.

"So fierce?" Zhou Wen was somewhat happy in his heart. There was difficulty only when there was a challenge. Killing those ordinary skeleton soldiers was really boring, and they wouldn't drop any good stuff.

Just as he was about to restart the game, he saw Li Xuan walking over with two young men of similar age.

Zhou Wen had never seen those two young men before, and they didn't look like students of Guide High School. Most likely, they were like Li Xuan, who was enrolled in Guide High School but not actually attending the school.

"Once we enter the ancient city, you don't have to do anything. Just follow me and leave the rest to them." Li Xuan had no intention of introducing Zhou Wen to the two young men. He just gave them a few casual instructions.

"Okay." Zhou Wen nodded in agreement. Since he could easily pass the actual combat test, he had no intention of stealing the limelight.

Seeing that the two young men had no intention of greeting him, Zhou Wen felt relieved and stood aside to continue playing games.

The two young men were discussing the actual combat test with Li Xuan, and repeatedly assured Li Xuan that with them around, they would definitely help Li Xuan get first place in the actual combat test in Guide Prefecture.

Judging from their tone, getting first place in the Guide Prefecture practical test is as easy as drinking water and eating.

"That's all you can say, but you must do the job well for me. There must be no mistakes. I am determined to win the first place in the practical test of Guide Prefecture." Li Xuan said.

"Brother Xuan, don't worry. In a small place like Guide Prefecture, there can't be any real masters. Not to mention Jiang Hao and I working together, even if it's just me alone, I can still guarantee that you, Brother Xuan, will take first place." Xu Miantu said nonchalantly.

Seeing Li Xuan frowning slightly, Jiang Hao beside him quickly said: "Brother Xuan, don't worry, we will do our best to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

"That's good." Li Xuan nodded slightly.

Xu Miantu wanted to say something, but saw someone walking towards him.

The four of them turned around and saw that the person coming was a tall beauty. Their eyes lit up.

"Zhou Wen, it's great that you can find the team." Fang Ruoxi walked up to Zhou Wen and said with some relief.

Zhou Wen smiled and said, "I have to thank Li Xuan for this. Thanks to him, I was able to participate in the actual combat test."

Fang Ruoxi didn't know Li Xuan, much less Xu Miantu or Jiang Hao, but she felt relieved that Zhou Wen could participate in the actual combat test. She smiled and said, "Originally, I wanted to fight for first place, but now that you're here, it seems that there's no hope for that."

Xu Miantu felt unhappy after hearing this. Fang Ruoxi's words made it sound as if they were taking advantage of Zhou Wen by teaming up with him.

"Beauty, don't worry about Zhou Wen following us. Although he has no hope of being in the top three, we can still ensure that he will be fourth in the team." Xu Miantu said to Fang Ruoxi with a smile.
