Chapter 17 Ancient Imperial City
Skeleton soldiers are a relatively weak extra-dimensional creature. They are not fast, not very strong, and have weak physique. The school has also taught methods to deal with skeleton soldiers. Ordinary high school students, as long as their training is not too bad, will have no problem dealing with one or two skeleton soldiers.
Although Zhou Wen had never fought with real skeleton soldiers, he could tell that the skeleton soldiers were much weaker than the powerful ants. Their strength and physique were not yet known, and their speed was at most around level three.
Controlling the bloody little man, he rushed forward, and the skeleton soldier smashed it down with a stick, but the speed was too slow. Before the stick hit the bloody little man, the bloody little man smashed his bones into pieces, turning them into a pile of bone fragments.
bite!
A dimensional crystal exploded among the broken bones on the ground. Zhou Wen took a closer look and found that it was actually a crystal of a dried-up soldier skeleton.
Zhou Wen was somewhat surprised. The drop rate of Qi Skill Crystals was too low. He was lucky to get one right away.
"It's a pity that it's just the vitality skill of the withered bone soldiers. The school information said that the vitality skill of the withered bone soldiers is the withered bone palm, which can only enhance a little strength. The effect is not very strong, and it is usually just a low-level vitality skill." Zhou Wen thought of the school information and felt a little disappointed.
He controlled the blood-colored man to pick up the crystal of the withered skeletal soldier, and the crystal immediately turned into a gray-white airflow and penetrated into the body of the blood-colored man.
At the same time, Zhou Wen also felt a cold breath penetrate into his palm along the phone, and then circulate and spread within his body, forming a strange energy circulation route.
Obtain the energy skill: Withered Bone Palm (1st stage), which consumes 1 energy point when used.
"The Withered Bone Palm only consumes 1 point of energy when used once, which is much less than the Hercules Fist. However, its power is also much weaker. It should be one of the weakest types of energy skills." Zhou Wen knew that the more energy a energy skill consumed, the more powerful it would be. A energy skill that only consumed a little energy must be very weak.
It was not convenient to test the power of the Withered Bone Palm here, so Zhou Wen controlled the bloody figure and continued to walk into the ancient imperial city.
Zhou Wen didn't know why the ancient city of Guide was called the Ancient Imperial City in the game. As far as he knew, Guide Prefecture was an ancient city with a long history. In ancient times, it was called Yingtian and Shang. Its history can be traced back to the mythological era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.
Emperor Zhuanxu, one of the Five Emperors, once built his capital here, but later moved the capital to Diqiu. Suiren, the first of the Three Sovereigns, was born here. Emperor Ku and his son Yanbo, two of the Five Emperors, were also born here.
The name Emperor Ku may be unfamiliar to most people, but the prototype of Emperor Di Jun in the Classic of Mountains and Seas is Emperor Ku.
These are just legends, and no one knows whether they really existed. However, since the extra-dimensional storm, the ancient city of Guide has become an extra-dimensional area, and until today, it has not been fully explored.
A few years ago, an epically powerful human rushed into the depths of the ancient city of Guide, but disappeared without a trace. Since then, no one has dared to go deep into it.
After decades of evolution, the strongest human being is only half a step away from becoming a myth. No true mythical strongman has yet appeared. Being called half a step away from becoming a myth is actually just the pinnacle of epic level. Even such a strong man has never returned, which shows the horror deep in the ancient city.
Fortunately, the other-dimensional realm seems to have powerful restrictions, and it is difficult for the alien creatures in the realm to break out of the range of the realm. Otherwise, human society would have been turned upside down long ago and would not be as stable as it is today.
Summoning mutated powerful ants, one man and one ant rushed into the depths of the ancient imperial city. Skeleton soldiers rushed out of the ancient city from time to time, but they were all easily killed by one man and one ant.
However, apart from the first skeleton soldier encountered at the entrance, no other crystals exploded. The explosion rate of skeleton soldiers was even lower than that of the powerful ants.
In the game, Zhou Wen tried the power of the Withered Bone Palm, and it was indeed much weaker than the Hercules Fist. It could only increase the power by about 10% to 20%, and was much weaker than Tian Xiangdong's Thunder Fist.
However, the Withered Bone Palm has one advantage, which is that its power is feminine and the amplitude of force is small. It is not as wide-open and wide-closing as the Hercules Fist, and the palm technique is very dexterous.
"The Withered Bone Palm is more suitable for fusion with the Inch Fist, but the power of the Withered Bone Palm is too low. Even if the fusion is successful, the damage to the silver-winged flying ants will be very limited." While Zhou Wen was thinking, he felt someone walking towards him.
There were quite a few students waiting for the practical test to begin, but Zhou Wen had originally chosen a corner seat. If someone walked towards this side, it was most likely looking for him.
Fortunately, the number of skeleton soldiers was not large, and the mutant powerful ants were enough to deal with them. It was okay for Zhou Wen to be slightly distracted, so he looked up.
Originally, Zhou Wen thought that Li Xuan had come, but after seeing who it was clearly, he was slightly stunned. The person was An Jing, whom Zhou Wen had not seen since she defeated him with one move.
An Jing is not the kind of girl with modern aesthetic sense. She does not have a pointed chin, double eyelids, or a high nose bridge. Her appearance is more of a classical beauty, with a small nose, a slightly chubby but heroic face, and cat-like eyes with a firm and powerful look.
She was taller than Fang Ruoxi, almost as tall as Zhou Wen. To boys, girls of this height were very oppressive, especially An Jing, who seemed to have an aura of keeping strangers away. Boys with weaker willpower would probably not dare to look her in the eye.
An Jing walked straight up to Zhou Wen and without waiting for Zhou Wen to speak, threw a USB flash drive at him.
"What is this?" Zhou Wen took the USB drive and asked An Jing with some confusion.
"Uncle Feng asked me to bring you something." An Jing said, glancing at the phone in Zhou Wen's hand. She seemed to be mocking him and said, "But I think Uncle Feng's efforts are in vain. For a person who has fallen into depravity, giving him good things is useless. It's just a waste."
Without waiting for Zhou Wen to say anything, An Jing turned around and walked away. After a few steps, she stopped again and said without looking back, "Don't say you are from our An family when you go out. We don't have such cowardly and incompetent people in our An family."
After saying that, An Jing left without looking back. After leaving the security area, she got into a car with military license plates and left.
Zhou Wen stared blankly at the military vehicle as it left. He then shook his head and muttered to himself, "I'm not from your An family, and I don't intend to take advantage of your family. You're really thinking too much."
Putting the USB drive into his pocket, Zhou Wen continued to play the Ancient Imperial City game copy, constantly hunting down the withered skeleton soldiers.
Even if nothing good comes out, it would be good to be able to familiarize yourself with the environment in the ancient imperial city in advance.
Although the school provided information and maps of the ancient city, the map was limited to the area around the north gate. On the one hand, the map was incomplete, and on the other hand, it was to prevent students from going too deep into the ancient city to avoid accidents.
