Chapter 182 019: Corridor

Luo Xi picked up a piece of bone fragment on the ground and looked at it, and his brows couldn't help but frowned.

It's not as simple as falling apart, but the originally complete skeleton is directly shattered into small pieces of broken bones.

You know, this skeleton was originally a knight, and the hardness of a knight's bones is extraordinary.

It is not difficult for a wizard to kill a knight, but it is not so easy to damage the knight's bones to this extent.

"What is it? A magic guard? An alchemical puppet? Or some kind of defensive magic?"

Luo Xi stared at the dark staircase and fell into deep thought. No matter what kind of thing it was, it would definitely not be easy to deal with, so it was better to be careful.

After thinking for a moment, he took out another alchemical puppet from the space ring. These were all made when he was learning alchemy knowledge. They were usually thrown into the space ring. Now they were put to use.

Then, he took out a small bottle with a ball of faint blue flame burning inside. This was a ghost, a kind of soul fragment.

He then drew out a strand of mental power and put it into the bottle to merge into the ghosts, and then embedded these ghosts into the alchemical puppets.

Closing his eyes, Luo Xi calmed his mind, and the next second his thoughts and consciousness seemed to leave his body and enter the alchemical puppet, transforming into an alchemical puppet.

[Soul Cutting]

This is a wizard-level necromancy spell that can cut off one's own soul energy and put it into a body or some kind of carrier, and then it is like having an avatar.

Of course, this kind of clone is very short-lived. After all, the energy that Luo Xi put into this alchemical puppet is just a tiny bit of his soul power, which can only last for half an hour at most before it is exhausted.

It is worth mentioning that if the soul energy is strong enough and the carrier found is suitable, this spell can be used to create several clones or backup bodies of oneself in the true sense, so that after the accidental death of the main body, it can be resurrected through other bodies.

Transformed into an alchemical puppet, Luo Xi walked up the spiral staircase.

The crisp sound of footsteps "tat tat" echoed in the quiet laboratory, and Luo Xi walked up the stairs step by step.

The stairs were not long. In less than a minute, he reached the end of the stairs and the room above, where a corridor was waiting for him.

The quiet corridor looked nothing special, but the moment you walked into it, something strange happened.

The first step is to lengthen.

The original corridor looked only about ten meters long, but the moment Luo Xi stepped onto it, the entire space began to twist, and both ends of the corridor extended rapidly to both sides, suddenly stretching to several hundred or even thousands of meters.

Then, a strange laugh sounded.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Intruders, it's invaders, hahahaha!"

"Great, finally there are some new toys that don't care about their lives, hahaha!"

"Kill him! Kill him!"

The sound came from the wall. Luo Xi turned around and found that there were a lot of oil paintings on the wall.

These are all portrait oil paintings. The characters in the paintings are of various shapes and sizes, including a jeweled lady waving a small goose down fan, a headless knight in armor holding his head, a farmer holding a pitchfork, a blacksmith, a king, and even a wizard in a cloak and holding a magic wand.

At this moment, they all seemed to come alive and laughed wildly at Luo Xi.

"Taste my sword!"

Amidst a burst of laughter, the headless knight took the lead in attacking Luo Xi.

He rode on a group of tall black war horses, holding his head with one hand and grabbing the whip with the other hand and whipping the horse's butt hard. Immediately, the war horse neighed and rushed towards Luo Xi.

The background of the oil painting is a dirt road in front of the dark castle. After the knight rushed to the end of the dirt road, he rushed out of the oil painting directly, and instantly rushed in front of Luo Xi, pulled out the cross sword hanging on the side and slashed at Luo Xi.

Luo Xi, who was also a knight, accurately judged the attack direction of the knight's cross sword. He quickly lowered his head before the sword blade came and barely avoided it.

While dodging the knight's fatal blow, Luo Xi turned around and punched the knight's horse. However, there was no impact when his fist hit the horse, as if he was hitting the air, and there was no reaction at all.

"Interesting little thing, go ahead and resist. The more fiercely you resist, the more excited Master Conrad will be!"

The headless knight laughed and swung his sword again, but Luo Xi still dodged it calmly.

While dodging, Luo Xi was still trying to fight back against the Headless Knight. However, no matter how he attacked, he could not touch the Headless Knight's body and could only take the beating.

"Hahaha, Conrad, you're an idiot. You can't even kill such a small thing."

"Can you do it? If not, let me do it!"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Seeing that the Headless Horseman's attacks failed again and again, the other paintings around him couldn't help but laugh loudly.

The Dullahan's head suddenly showed an embarrassed look, and he said angrily: "Damn little thing, you stinky rat hiding here and there, I will chop you into pieces!"

Luo Xi ignored the roar of the Headless Knight. After several attacks failed, he suddenly remembered that these things seemed to be souls. It would be ineffective to use simple physical attacks against souls.

To deal with the soul, you must have the power of the soul.

When the Headless Knight charged at him again, he simply mobilized the only bit of soul power in his body, completely gave up control of his body, and used this bit of soul power directly to attack the Headless Knight.

Luo Xi's guess was correct. When the soul power attacked the Headless Knight, it did not penetrate the body and miss as before, but hit the Headless Knight solidly.

Although it was only a tiny attack and the damage it caused to the Headless Knight was negligible, it did hit him.

“Whoosh—Crack!”

The next second, a cold sound of breaking wind was heard, and the cross sword cut through the air and slashed fiercely on Luo Xi's body. The sturdy alchemical armor was instantly torn into pieces by this powerful experience, and Luo Xi's soul power also collapsed in an instant.

“Ding ding dong!”

A crisp sound of metal breaking was heard in the library, and the alchemical armor turned into metal fragments and rolled down the spiral staircase in pieces.

Downstairs, Rosie opened her eyes.

He picked up the metal fragments on the ground and took a look at them, and figured out what was going on.

"I see."

"Is it the protective magic circle of the ghost guard?"
