Chapter 108 The good news is that he can be resurrected, the bad news is
Go back a few minutes in time.
Malu looked at the scattered bones on the ground and kicked them without hesitation.
The third survival rule of Sion: You must hit the skeletons on the ground. After all, as an adventurer, you don’t want to be robbed by skeleton monsters, right?
She didn't feel relieved until all the bones on the ground were crushed.
"Strange, has this dungeon changed? Why are there no skeleton monsters that can be combined and resurrected?"
"Senior, stop being suspicious and come over and take a look. They are all good stuff!" The adventurer called her over.
"I'm coming right up,"
Malu still felt something was wrong, but when she looked around, there were indeed no monsters here.
So, it should be safe? Will the Sen Dungeon really create an absolutely safe area?
With a thousand thoughts in her mind, she bent down and picked up a ball of light from the tombstone.
[The Big Soul of the Unknown Soldier]
The smile immediately dispelled her doubts. This was a good thing that could be used for upgrading.
A sense of anticipation immediately arose in her heart, and she picked up another ball. This time the prop inside was a green herb.
【Green flowers and grass】
[Green grass like a big flower can temporarily increase the speed of energy recovery]
[This annual herb grows near clear water. The Fran Undead Corps would practice by chopping it with their great swords, and this green grass is famous for this.]
It's the Fran Undead Squad again.
Malu looked up at the tombstone, trying to find some information from the inscription, but unfortunately the words on the tombstone could no longer be seen clearly.
"Could this be the grave of a member of the Undead Team? His teammates placed the green flowers and plants here to commemorate him?"
At this moment, she imagined a deeply touching story.
If Gong Qiying knew what she was thinking, he would probably give her a thumbs up and praise her, "You are already a fledgling soul scientist."
Most of the things placed in front of the tombstones are souls, with a few being green flowers and plants. If the green flowers and plants are regarded as symbols of memorial service and the souls as the residues left by the deceased, this cemetery has quite an atmosphere.
Rusty weapons are scattered around the tombstones, as if waiting for their owners to wield them again. The marks on each weapon seem to tell a legend.
Malu suddenly felt a little regretful for crushing those bones, which was a bit of a blasphemy to the ancestors.
"Senior, here is a weapon, do you want it?" The adventurer picked up a big sword. The sword was so long and heavy that it could only be wielded with both hands.
Simply put, there's not enough strength.
"You keep it," Malu waved her hand. Her fighting style was far from a broadsword. The weapon that suited her best was a small scimitar or something like that.
She felt a little uncomfortable when she thought of the machete.
She had finally cleared the Senn dungeon, but the reward she got was two ugly corpse-stripping curved swords, which made her very depressed.
Although these two weapons feel really good, and seem to be able to easily cause bleeding wounds to the enemy, their appearance is really not aesthetically pleasing. I really want the boss's great Kalia.
However, she has not yet experienced actual combat since she obtained the Corpse-Stripping Sword.
"I hope these two curved swords can bring me surprises." Malu muttered to herself. At this moment, she suddenly felt something grabbing her ankle.
When I looked down, I saw a skeletal hand coming out of the soil.
Not only did it grab her, but the bony hand also rubbed her ankles restlessly, which was greasy and scary!
“Wow!”
Malu's screams echoed throughout the Firelink Shrine.
"Senior, a monster has emerged from the soil!"
The adventurer ran out of the cemetery shouting and holding a big sword. Behind him, skeletons crawled out of the soil one after another, grabbed the weapons stuck next to the tombstones, and staggered after the two men.
Damn meow, it turns out those weapons were used to attack us, and you're still moved!
Malu kicked the skeleton's hand away, turned around, grabbed the adventurer's collar and pinned him to the ground, helping him dodge the skeleton's attack from behind, then drew her sword and slashed at the chasing skeleton.
"Bang--"
Although the skeleton monster was cut off, the recoil force made Malu's hand numb.
The hardness of this thing is completely different from the skeleton monster I encountered before!
That's natural, because the previous skeleton monsters were the indigenous monsters of this world, but now the Sen Dungeon uses the original ones from Dark Souls.
【Skeleton Warrior】
【Comprehensive combat effectiveness: E+】
More and more skeletons crawled out of the soil. Malu immediately pulled the adventurers to escape. However, it was not until this time that they realized that they could not go back to the original route!
This group of tombs is an independent area, located below the Firelink Shrine. There are buildings on top of it to conceal it, so you can't find this area unless you look carefully. There is a cliff on the side, and the height difference between the cemetery and the sacrificial site is more than ten meters. The walls are so smooth that they cannot be climbed, and there is no way to go back except through the hidden path of the treasure chest that you came here at the beginning!
As for the road that came in, a giant skeleton warrior appeared out at some point, swinging a sledgehammer with great force.
It's not impossible to fight. Even under the siege of more than a dozen skeletons, Malu still has a chance to win, but the cemetery is too small and there is no way to display her strength.
"Maloo, where are you?" Tel's voice came, and Maloo quickly replied: "Jump down from the gap on the left, there is a path behind the treasure chest, be careful of monsters!"
"good!"
Accompanied by a "bang" sound, a few seconds later, Tel said distressedly:
“I can’t squeeze in”
"Damn, where's the old man? Can you use magic to support me?" Malu kept dodging the attacks of the skeletons. Although she looked cool, she was actually very tired.
Now there is another way - let everyone jump down from the sacrificial site to provide support. If we have the ability to levitate, jumping down should not be a problem.
But by the time everyone jumped down, the flowers were cold. Malu looked around and found that there seemed to be a road deep in the cemetery!
"Go that way,"
She immediately led the adventurers deeper into the cave, and sure enough, they found a path right next to the cliff. The two of them ran along the path until they found a dark tunnel at the end.
This tunnel is the road leading to the mining area, and Gong Qiying actually hid it so deep.
The skeleton warriors followed relentlessly, and Malu used the terrain to kick the pursuers off the cliff, but the remaining monsters had learned their lesson and surrounded the end of the path, waiting for their chance.
Now there are three choices before Malu.
First, jumping off the cliff nearby is better than dying at the hands of monsters.
Second, stay here and wait for support from teammates.
3. Go deep into the tunnel.
Is there any need to choose? Of course it’s two!
"I leaned in and was about to fall in,"
The adventurer walked into the tunnel. After all, there was a cliff next to it, and it would not be fun if he accidentally fell down.
“Click—”
A strange voice sounded, and the two of them immediately looked towards the source of the voice.
That came from the adventurer's feet.
"Senior." Cold sweat flowed down the adventurer's forehead. "I think I stepped into a trap."
"Don't move, don't move. Generally speaking, this kind of trigger trap will be fine as long as you don't lift your feet!"
Malu looked nervously into the depths of the tunnel. What kind of trap would appear? A big iron ball, a hidden arrow, or a monster falling from the sky?
“Beep, beep, beep, beep—”
A series of rapid sounds came into the ears of the two men. These were sounds they had never heard before, as cold and ruthless as a machine.
And its source seems to be underground?
"boom!!!"
There was a violent explosion, and the rocks under the feet of the two men collapsed.
This time he could only be thrown to death.
"It's Pyroblast!" Malu shouted before falling to death.
No, it's actually a C4 bomb.
This thing is much cheaper than the Pyroblast Trap~
“.”
I should be dead, right?
Having fallen off a cliff, is it possible to survive?
No, why do I feel so noisy around me? Hiss, I have a headache, but it's much lighter than the headache I had after being resurrected in the resurrection house.
Malu suddenly opened her eyes and was surprised to find that
"Why am I still in the dungeon!?"
In front of her was a warm bonfire. Tel and others surrounded her and marveled at her, as if they had seen something incredible.
Malu couldn't help asking, "Why am I here? Did you save me?"
Everyone looked at each other, and Roger said, "No, you are indeed dead."
"Then why am I still here?"
The doubt in her eyes grew stronger. After the adventurer died, wouldn't he be taken to the resurrection house by the teleportation crystal?
"Uh," Ter scratched his head and pointed at the campfire.
"When we came back, we saw you appear by the campfire. It was as if you appeared out of thin air."
"It's unclear why," Drew frowned.
"Why did you resurrect, but the other person who followed you did not?"
After saying this, Malu noticed that the adventurer who fell off the cliff with her did not resurrect.
She was stunned for a while, and said to herself: "Yes, why didn't he come back to life?"
Everyone thought this was very strange, and some even started using the magic [Identify Humans] on Malu.
While she was in a daze, she accidentally touched the campfire and her personal panel appeared in front of her.
A string of numbers, but something caught her attention at the end.
[Current number of souls: 0]
Zero? Why is it zero? I clearly killed a few skeletons, so at least I should have dozens of points.
I didn't kill any of the adventurers who followed me, so his soul count should be zero.
Wait, zero?
Malu trembled as if she was electrocuted, and she seemed to understand why she appeared at the campfire!
The city lord's room.
Gong Qiying was looking at the crystal ball. The scenes on it were all of confused adventurers who were resurrected at the campfire.
He wrote in his notes:
"New mechanism. After the adventurer dies, he will be resurrected at the bonfire according to the number of souls and mental power he has. When resurrecting, souls will be used first. If the number of souls is insufficient, mental power will be consumed. The adventurer will not really die until the remaining mental power is judged by the dungeon to be close to the danger line."
"This mechanism is great. It saves adventurers from having to wait for CD to return to the dungeon the next day after dying once. This way, more mental power can be squeezed out in one day."
"However, this will take longer for them to recover their mental strength. I have to raise the standard of the danger line. Otherwise, it will not be conducive to development if adventurers have to rest for half a month every time they come in."
"As for the number of bonfires"
He watched as Malu and her group walked into the Fran Fortress area.
"There is a bonfire in each large area. It will only appear after defeating the BOSS. Let's experience the 365 miles."
You can join the Penguin group to play. The group number is in the profile.
