Chapter 5: Corpse Slayer
The firelight climbed feebly over the tall, thin shadow.
The moment he raised his head, a chill ran up from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and Levi's scalp suddenly exploded.
Before Levi could recover from the shock, the strange mummy with a distorted appearance suddenly screamed and pounced on him.
The piercing scream that was so close to him almost made his blood freeze. Levi used up all his courage to break free from this state. He rolled to the side with a thud. When he looked back, he saw that the workbench behind him was smashed to pieces by this strange thing.
What a strong power! With the weak light of the fire, Levi finally saw the appearance of this uninvited guest.
Tattered clothes, a tall, thin, shadowy body, a gleam in the eyes, and old jewelry jingling on the body.
Thinking about the current geographical location, a word suddenly popped up in Levi's mind: Corpse Demon!! I'm awesome!
I had deliberately avoided the ancient tombs and old forests, so how could I still encounter this thing! Don’t come over here! ! Gulp.
His throat moved with difficulty, and Levi could clearly feel that his breathing was disordered.
“Awesome…”
The tall shadow laughed an unpleasant sound, like a broken bellows blowing out air.
It smells a sweet scent...
fear.
The spider-web-like fear pressed down on Levi, gripping the ground and making him unable to move.
Corpse demon, very happy.
Realizing that he seemed to have become a plaything for the corpse demon in front of him to amuse himself, Levi subconsciously tightened his grip on the stone sword in his hand, feeling humiliated.
How can I, a MC player, bear this injustice? I have to play it no matter what I say today!
brush--
An old sword enchanted with tetanus was slowly drawn out, and the corpse demon raised its skinny arm high, about to chop it off -
“Aa ...
The figure on the ground yelled angrily, grabbed the sword in his hand, and scrambled to his feet and swung forward! Ding! A crisp sound of attack rang out.
Levi's wrist felt numb and he felt as if the sword had hit iron.
If he really had an ordinary stone sword in his hand, the sword would probably have broken into pieces.
The attack is effective.
【-3】
A line of prompts floated across Levi's field of vision.
It seemed that it had never expected that it would encounter resistance. Caught off guard, the corpse demon staggered after being chopped. It looked at Levi, then looked at the gap on its body in disbelief.
A mere stone sword actually managed to penetrate the witchcraft protection and the rusty armor on its body and hurt it.
What kind of stone is your sword made of? "Hiss!"
A sharp cry was heard, and Levi knew that he had angered the ghost.
He stood up straight and looked at the corpse intently.
The next moment, a line of logos appeared above his head.
【57/60】
Health bar.
Damn, this thing has a full sixty drops of blood!
It was three times his own! And it also had its own armor! Since he had never seen other humans, Levi could only use himself and the Hobbits he had seen during this period as references.
He himself has 20 HP, while the average adult Hobbit has between 15 and 18 HP, and rarely exceeds this value.
It is hard to imagine how the Kingdom of Arnor dealt with these corpse monsters.
【+1】
Suddenly, a piece of small green words floated past the corpse demon.
【58/60】
“?!”
It's not how you-
There was no time to think about it. With a loud bang, the ancient sword and the stone sword collided, and Levi felt his arm go numb.
What a great strength! And the blood is restored so quickly!
"drink!"
Levi exerted force and barely managed to block the sword.
The stone sword crafted by my system is not vegetarian either!
Swoosh——
Another strike of the sword, and a small gap appeared on the corpse monster's body again. - 4.
【54/60】
Very good, although the blood is thick, as long as you can continue to chop...
Wow——
There was a sound of wind by his ears, and before he could react, he saw the corpse demon's other hand whistling towards him, slapping Levi on the waist and sending him flying. For a moment, Levi lost consciousness, and his eyes went black. When he opened his eyes again, he was lying on the ground.
【-7】
【13/20】
There was a terrible pain in my waist.
【14/20】
The rings filled with burial objects on the corpse demon's hands successfully played the role of brass knuckles at this moment. When the skinny hand came over, the touch of metal was extremely clear.
【16/20】
【17.5/20】
However, within just two seconds, the wound recovered rapidly as the satiety decreased. Seeing the attack coming again, Levi quickly got up and hastily blocked the sword that was swung at him again.
【20/20】
However, after a short while of getting up, his blood volume was restored, and his waist, which was almost broken, no longer hurt, as if the serious injury just now was just an illusion.
The price is that the second row of hunger value stored in advance is reduced by half.
Levi took a deep breath.
By this calculation, I actually have 60 drops of blood.
Even more if you count the food reserves in your inventory.
In this case, what are you afraid of? Come on, fight with swords! To be honest, the swordsmanship of these two is about the same. Levi doesn't know any rules at all, and the swordsmanship of the corpse demon is not very good under the restrictions of his twisted limbs. This battle is basically a hard fight.
Bang! Struggling to separate the ancient sword, Levi swung his sword with all his strength again. -3-3 and occasionally -4-5 kept emanating from the corpse. Under the constant forced repulsion and real damage, the corpse was suppressed and retreated two steps.
However, the sudden bravery only went so far, as the corpse demon, having experienced strong winds and waves, quickly reacted.
Isn't it just a stone sword with special power bonus that can break one's own defense? It's not like I haven't seen similar things when fighting the Dunedain.
brush--
Soon, the corpse demon reacted and swung a sword. Levi was so panicked that he only had time to turn sideways to avoid the vital parts, but he still got a big cut.
【-6】
But the damage is only 6 blood points, and it can be restored to full immediately!
Just as I was thinking this, my heart suddenly felt a sharp pain.
【-1】
Levi looked suddenly at his status bar.
The red heart representing life value suddenly cracked and its color gradually darkened.
【-1】
Wither?
No, this is. [Curse: 2s]
Corpses, also known as evil spirits, are servants of darkness, and their existence represents some kind of evil.
At this moment, Levi was immediately in a dilemma and instinctively felt like retreating.
It is really difficult to fight without armor against a monster that has superior attributes in all aspects and has a continuous damage buff.
How did you deal with these weird numbers when playing games before?
Move around, seize the terrain, and use operations and characteristics to defeat the numbers.
characteristic…
thump.
Another sword came at him, but Levi rolled on the ground, narrowly avoiding it and throwing up a handful of dirt.
Eat dirt, old coin! - In terms of physical skills, if it is to use the keyboard to operate in the game, Levi's positioning is okay, but this is reality after all, and it is Levi's first time to experience combat. To be honest, now just suppressing the fear in his heart and being able to fight back has already tried his best.
Then we can only rely on... characteristics! Levi stood up, stumbling and rolling on the ground for several seconds, and his health was restored to full again.
The pre-stored hunger value was also completely consumed.
"Ugly thing, look at me!"
The taunt took effect immediately, the corpse demon's eyes became brighter, and it pounced forward with anger.
Seeing that he had run within one meter, the sword was about to hit Levi.
The next moment.
Levi endured the pain and suddenly raised his hand.
Pop.
A piece of raw stone that was exactly one meter long, wide and high suddenly appeared out of nowhere, blocking the middle, and the corpse demon staggered.
Levi naturally would not miss this opportunity. He raised his sword and chopped repeatedly. The corpse demon was caught off guard and fell to the ground.
【-3-3…】
【27/60】
"roar--!"
As if it realized that its power was constantly draining away and it might really fall into dissipation and nothingness, the corpse demon suddenly exploded and struggled desperately to step over the stone and move forward.
However, Levi just stepped back, took out a stone with his other hand and put it down, blocking the corpse's movement again.
The corpse demon was extremely furious. It was just a piece of stone. Normally, it could even pass through it by using some strength. However, the stone that this person conjured out of thin air was extremely special and its own strength could not penetrate it at all.
Boom! A figure fell from the sky and chopped the corpse demon on the forehead with an axe.
This axe jump and chop actually directly cut off 10 drops of blood.
After the attack was successful, Levi immediately cut out the stone sword and chopped quickly.
【-4-4…】
At this moment, the corpse demon finally recovered and pulled out the ancient sword.
brush--
A sword pierced Levi's chest.
However, Levi ignored it and grabbed the ancient sword and stuck it in his chest.
Then, be greedy and kill with a knife.
Bang! "Ah ...
When the last sword was swung down.
A sharp cry spread throughout the wilderness, and a black gas rose from the corpse demon's body, then exploded and dissipated in mid-air the next moment.
The mummy suddenly lost power and fell to the ground with no light in its eyes.
