However, the obsession and murderous intent that emanated from the skeleton warriors' rotten armor and gray-black bones, carrying a thousand years of accumulation, was as heavy as a solid block of lead, pressing down hard on the intruder.
There was no roaring, only the silent burning of soul fire and the noise of bones rubbing against each other.
They formed a loose yet oppressive formation, with rusted weapons raised.
All the green eyes were fixed on the living creature in the center of the corridor - Team Mark.
The smell of decay and death instantly filled the narrow space.
A fierce gleam flashed in Enzo's eyes, and the fighting spirit that had been suppressed for a long time suddenly burst out. "Fuck! A bunch of idiots dare to stand in the way of your grandfather Enzo?! Smash them to pieces!"
His short and strong body was the first to rush out like a cannonball, and the rune forging hammer, with a sharp scream that tore through the air and runes that suddenly lit up, smashed into the row of skeleton warriors closest to him!
Wherever the hammer wind went, even the faint blue phosphorescence floating in the air was dispersed!
Bang—crack!
The forging hammer hit the breastplate of a skeleton warrior hard!
The rotten bronze armor shattered like a crisp eggshell, and the gray-black bones instantly exploded into bone fragments all over the sky!
The mysterious runes on the hammer suddenly lit up with a deep black light, and an invisible shock wave spread out like water ripples!
"Crack—crash!"
Several skeleton warriors around were affected by this violent shock force, their skeletons shook violently, and they groaned as they could not bear the heavy burden.
The joints seemed to be about to collapse at any time, and the green soul fire that was beating in the eye sockets suddenly swayed and dimmed a little, like a candle in the wind.
The rusty weapon chopped weakly on Enzo's mithril breastplate, leaving only a few shallow white marks and making a dull "clang clang" sound.
Almost at the same moment Enzo charged!
"call out--!"
"call out--!"
"call out--!"
Three streams of emerald green light shot out from Anna's longbow with lightning precision, like deadly fireflies piercing the night sky!
The arrows were wrapped in rich natural magic, drawing three clear and swift trajectories in the dim light!
Puff! Puff! Puff!
The arrow had no deviation at all and penetrated into the empty eye sockets of the three skeleton warriors with incredible precision, right at the core of the burning dark green soul fire!
“Sizzle!”
The natural magic contained in the arrow is like a hot iron thrown into the ice!
The skeleton warrior who was hit froze instantly, and the soul fire in his eye sockets made a sharp "sizzling" sound like burning oil, flickering violently!
After only half a second of stalemate, the soul fire was completely extinguished like a extinguished candle!
The skeleton warrior lost his support and fell to the ground with a crash, turning into a pile of lifeless gray-black bones.
Mark did not rush into the enemy group like Enzo did. He stood calmly in front of Monica. The cross necklace in his hand instantly stretched and deformed, turning into a huge arm shield with colorful black light patterns flowing on the edges!
“Ding! Ding! Ding!”
Several rusty bronze swords and spears stabbed fiercely on the shield, making a harsh collision sound!
Mark's arm muscles flexed, firmly blocking the attack.
The colorful black light on the shield suddenly became brighter, as if a purifying lamp was lit in the darkness!
A circle of ripples visible to the naked eye suddenly spread out with the shield as the center!
Divine Judgment ■·Change!
Mark can now unleash Divine Judgment on any enemy with any attack that comes into contact with his weapon.
We are one step closer to releasing Zapelion again!
Wherever the force field passed, the thick death aura wrapped around the skeleton warriors was like ice and snow thrown into a furnace, making a "hissing" sound of melting, and their movements became obviously sluggish and stiff.
The cold negative energy that permeated the air was also forcibly dispelled from a small area.
"Five steps to the left! The soul fire is hidden in the third cervical vertebrae!"
"Seven steps to the right, the joints are severely rusted, and the knees are the weak point!"
"Three new ones have emerged six steps behind. The soul fire core is in the center of the chest cavity, hidden by the ribs!"
Monica's calm voice rang out clearly amid the sounds of fierce fighting.
The identification array spun wildly at an unprecedented speed, revealing the skeleton warrior's weaknesses and energy flow trajectories, and instantly sharing them with all teammates through mental connection.
She herself was like an elegant dancer. Under the cover of Mark's shield, her figure flashed like a ghost, and the dagger in her hand, which was tempered with a cold blue light, pierced into the knee joint of a skeleton warrior who was trying to bypass Enzo with incredible precision!
“Crack!”
With a crisp sound, the skeleton warrior's entire calf bone broke, and he lost his balance and fell to the ground. Enzo turned around and smashed his head with a hammer.
“Mwu——!”
Xiaomu made a low and alert chirp in Anna's arms.
On the surface of its pink body, holy white light and deep colorful black light flickered alternately like breathing, forming a weak force field with a radius of about two meters centered on it.
Although the force field is small, it exudes a purifying aura that cannot be desecrated.
Once the cold and negative energy that tried to penetrate from the shadows of the ground or walls touched the edge of this force field, it would emit a slight "sizzling" sound as if it had encountered its nemesis, and would be quickly purified and dispersed.
The movements of several low-level skeleton warriors close to the force field also became more sluggish, and even extremely faint green smoke emerged from the surface of the gray-black bones, as if they were burned by invisible flames.
The battle broke out violently and ended extremely quickly.
The individual strength of these skeleton warriors is not very strong, roughly equivalent to a third-level professional, and their movements are stiff and slow. They lack intelligence and are driven only by instinctive hatred.
Under the tacit cooperation and precise strikes of Mark's team, they fell down like harvested wheat.
When Enzo smashed the last skeleton warrior, whose armor was slightly better and the soul fire in his eye sockets was slightly larger, with a hammer, he smashed him to pieces.
Broken bronze armor pieces and gray-black bone fragments flew everywhere.
One of the breastplate fragments, which was about the size of a palm, broke through the air and hit the stone wall next to it with a clang.
"Bah! Unlucky bone residue!" Enzo spat and shook off the bone powder on the hammer head.
"Wait, Enzo!" Monica's voice had a hint of strangeness.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound.
I saw that where the breastplate fragment that was hit by Enzo's hammer hit the stone wall covered with thick moss, a small gap was actually opened.
It revealed a square niche only the size of a human head hidden inside the stone wall.
In the alcove, there lay quietly a pitch-black box made of neither gold nor stone.
The surface of the box is engraved with intricate Lumi runes. The lines are smooth but reveal a cold and dead aura.
These runes don't seem to be decorations, but some kind of sophisticated magical circuits, which are now emitting a faint light that almost blends with the negative energy of the environment.
"Fuck, is there something hidden?" Enzo moved closer and wanted to reach out and take it curiously.
"Don't move!" Mark and Monica said almost at the same time.
