Undead Calamity 7 in Magical Continent
At night, the mass grave was still eerie and mysterious, with ghost lights everywhere and messy traces of what looked like dead bones left on the ground.
Suddenly, several hills moved, and a bony hand dug up the pile of earth. A skeleton crawled out from it and shook off the dirt on its body. The bones nourished by the Yin energy were white and flawless, not like the real dead body bones that were rotten and mottled, and so fragile that they would turn into powder with a light pinch.
"Click."
The skull's eye sockets were burning with soul fire, and the pale white light looked particularly strange and terrifying at night.
Immediately afterwards, several more skeletons crawled out one after another.
They all came to the mound where Luo Chen was lying, dug up the earth with great diligence and effort, and then respectfully welcomed Luo Chen to a makeshift stool.
The surroundings were silent, and only the crying sound of the wind could be heard. Even the crows did not dare to stay here. In the huge mass grave, only these few undead were dancing excitedly, which looked very strange.
But only the dead could hear their excited conversation.
Neil carefully observed the photos Billy posted on the forum. The skeleton in the photo seemed a little restrained and uneasy because it was the first time to take a photo. He didn't know how to position the skeleton.
There was clearly a fire of the soul burning in his eyes, but there was always an indescribable feeling of stiffness, as if his bones and joints were suspended by thin threads and would not stretch no matter how he looked at them.
But Neil was still very happy because the skeleton in the photo was him.
He then said to Billy, "Please take another headshot for me."
Billy was not very satisfied with the photos he took, so he turned on the camera function, adjusted the angle back and forth without any instruction, half squatted down, and pressed the button after confirming that there was no problem.
“Crack.”
The sound of a shooting sound that only he could hear rang out, and at the same time, a new photo appeared in the spiritual network. The background was the deep night dotted with stars, and a half-skeleton was slightly sideways, revealing the superior back of its head.
It was clearly just a skeleton, but it actually looked solemn and steady. Satisfied, he posted the photo to the forum. Only in this way could Neil see the photo.
Neil looked at it several times again, "Is this still me?"
He had never looked so good in his lifetime.
The others couldn't help but giggle, but they had to say that the photo was very well taken. They surrounded Billy and begged him to take such a nice photo for them as well.
Luo Chen took some time to check out the forum.
really.
Compared to the blurry and crooked photos taken by others, Billy seemed to have a natural intuition about the camera. Even though he had not received training and learning like those professional photographers in the small world of technology, he still took pictures with reasonable composition and a sense of atmosphere.
A thought flashed through Luo Chen's mind.
However, this matter will have to wait until the user base is larger. He now needs to discuss serious matters with these undead. To be precise, it should be a unilateral notification.
"There's not much death energy here, and the location isn't good enough to be used as a base camp. I'm planning to go to Death Ridge. If you want to follow me, pack up now. We'll leave in three hours."
The undead who were originally dancing were stunned.
After a while.
Bilili spoke first: "None of us have anything worth taking with us, so we can leave at any time."
The others came to their senses and nodded.
Even though they were a little afraid to leave here, they also knew that staying here did not mean they were safe.
Who knows if there will be other black magicians appearing in the future.
Soon, the undead led by Luo Chen set off.
Before leaving, Billy picked up a few worn-out machetes as weapons. Although he knew that these things would not be very effective against most races, they couldn't just do nothing and let that adult be responsible for all the protection, right?
At their insistence, Luo Chen rode on the undead horse.
It took about three hours to walk.
The bones in Billy and the others' feet made crackling sounds. The road was full of sharp gravel, and their feet were not protected by shoes, so they would definitely wear out over time.
Level zero undead bones are only slightly stronger than living human bones.
Logically speaking, even if a large number of zero-level undead were gathered, they would not be able to withstand the damage caused by higher-level races.
But what if these undead wore armor and had weapons?
The Undead Scourge are fearless, do not need food or water, and will not get tired. There are so many of them that they can fight and attack all the time until a new batch appears after another batch dies.
If the fire of their souls has not yet gone out, they can always pick up other bones scattered on the ground to piece themselves together and continue to pick up weapons to fight.
Even an orc outnumbering a hundred people alone cannot withstand this kind of suicide attack.
The same is true for the demons.
In addition, some high-level undead can use soul fire to give their followers some of their own abilities. For example, if a high-level undead is good at strength, their followers can simultaneously become powerful undead disasters.
Of course, this also has to do with the strength of the high-level undead.
The more powerful the soul fire is, the more followers it will bestow and the greater the increase in strength, and vice versa.
The original body does not have any innate powers.
Luo Chen directly used the emotional power accumulated during this period to transform it into speed and enhanced abilities and bestowed them upon his followers.
A moment.
The soul fires of Billy and other undead were tinged with a hint of light gold, and the bones on the soles of their feet became hard and indestructible, along with their speed and strength that was at least three times faster than before.
They instantly realized that this was an ability brought by being dependents. They looked at each other excitedly and curiously, feeling the change in speed that was completely different from before.
Even if this power is not permanent.
Some high-level undead can bless for up to three hours, and I heard that some can even bless for at least half a day.
So Billy and the others cherish this time especially.
The sky gradually brightened, and the speed of the undead was still there, which shortened the journey that should have taken three days to just one day.
As for the horse that the black magician was riding, it was also jumping back and forth excitedly with its hooves.
Luo Chen sat on it and continued to modify the spiritual network.
Several undead spirits walked behind, communicating with each other using the forum function in the spirit network.
[It's been a whole night, and the power hasn't disappeared yet.]
Neil was a little confused and typed a reply to Billy slowly: [Isn’t this good?]
Billy quickly replied, "Very good."
He was just shocked that the Necromancer's soul fire was so strong, that he had a spirit net spell, that he could transfer things visible to the naked eye into the spirit net, and that he could easily kill the black magician.
All these things put together made the necromancer seem powerful and mysterious, making him feel awe and admiration, but also gave rise to more hesitation and anxiety.
He is not worthy of being this lord's undead follower.
Billy walked behind, the soul fire in his eyes burning even more vigorously. He must learn the spell of Spirit Net with all his heart and soul before the number of followers of the Lord of the Dead increases.
No matter how little he knew, he understood how powerful this spiritual net spell was.
Luo Chen sensed the power of faith transmitted by Billy, and was somewhat surprised that the other party had such a strong fighting spirit. This was also a good thing. Maybe a plan he had come up with before could really be completed with Billy.
The sun rises from the distant horizon.
The undead are not afraid of sunlight like ghosts, but overly strong sunlight can indeed make low-level undead feel uncomfortable. Luo Chen simply stopped his horse and planned to rest for a day and continue his journey at night.
This stretch of road is desolate and sparsely traveled.
Basically no one or other races would pass by, so they didn't need to bury themselves tightly, they just had to make sure the sunlight didn't shine on the fire of their souls.
After Billy and the other undead lay down, the first thing they did was to log into the spirit network. They were surprised to find that a new icon seemed to have appeared on the spirit network.
【map】
They clicked on it and were immediately amazed by the map function.
Billy was fortunate enough to see a sheepskin map drawn by the village chief once before his death. However, the lines on the map were very simple. Crooked lines were used to draw a square to represent a house, a triangle to represent a tree, and several waves to represent a river.
The map only has flat markings from the village to the town.
The village chief attaches great importance to this map.
And these ordinary villagers usually have no chance and no qualifications to look at the sheepskin map.
But now, the new map function in the spiritual network is like recording the entire surrounding scenery with the naked eye.
He can even use the mouse to zoom in or out of the map.
The grass blown by the wind on the roadside was frozen in the map, so clearly that you can see the lines on it.
Billy's soul fire vibrated wildly, and Neil and the others also reacted strongly, but they controlled the soul fire tightly for fear of disturbing the adults' eternal sleep, and could only communicate frantically by replying to posts on the forum.
[It's amazing. The map can be enlarged or reduced at will, just by using that tiny arrow. This is absolutely a miracle.]
[How could I possibly possess the power of the Spirit Network after death? Such a precious map is left for us to view at will.]
How did the adults do it?
After they vented their inner shock, they clicked on the map function again. Billy quickly discovered a detail. The scenery and roads shown on the map seemed to be places they had been before.
Then think of the photo-taking function in Lingwang.
He seemed to understand something vaguely. No wonder the adults kept looking left and right along the way. He thought the adults were enjoying the scenery, but it turned out that they were taking pictures of the scenery and putting them on the map.
Billy zoomed out the map and found a line of text and a small red dot in the distance, which read "Mass Grave". When he enlarged the red dot, he could see the scenery and details of the mass grave.
It seems that as long as the adults have been to a place, it will be included in the map. The advantage is that it does not have to be too vague like a sheepskin map, and sometimes it is difficult to find the correct direction from the map.
As for the disadvantages... he couldn't think of them for the time being.
But it is not difficult to guess that collecting maps will be a very large and time-consuming task. Do adults have to travel to every corner of the world?
He always felt like he had overlooked something.
The other side.
Luo Chen looked at the newly launched map function and said to Wan Kong Jing, "Once we reach Death Mountain, we will be able to launch the Spirit Coin function."
This function can promote Internet activity and also pave the way for the most important function on the Internet - virtual transaction function.
Maps are particularly important for most races.
Most of the maps drawn by the races in this world are outdated and consume a lot of manpower and financial resources. This new feature can update the latest road conditions at any time and will inevitably become one of the indispensable functions for traveling merchants, mages and other intelligent races who need to travel.
As for how to slowly fill in the map details, it will of course depend on the huge number of undead and future users to perfect it bit by bit.
——Spiritual coins.
This will be one of the main driving forces to entice these future users to choose to cooperate with the supplementary map.
