Chapter 6: The Greedy Adventurer!
Chapter 6 The Greedy Adventurer!
“This boss is really 10,000 times more white out there than in a copy, the days of pulling five elite monsters at the same time and having to be wary of getting his back circled are a real head scratcher.”
Catching Sheep summarized it thus.
In fact from the beginning of the battle these two people’s pussyfooting around didn’t stop.
As if they didn’t need to concentrate at all, they gagged and joked about Old Hunter’s unknown dark skills, breaking them down and dealing with them little by little.
In Goat Catch’s words, Old Hunter’s most common combo was a powerful knockdown followed by an almost no-fore-shake chase, but as long as it landed instantly in a half-crouch with a shield to block a series of mad dog slams and gain a buffer.
He’s also very skillful at pulling off this set of maneuvers.
As for the other man, he went to deal with old Hunter’s backhand.
He would have originally summoned five corpses as if they were obscene, but in reality they were all living people whose lives were on the line.
The blood spell had triggered the last of their power, causing them to burn their blood to “return to life”.
But as the goat catcher attracted hatred and Mr. Xia circled back to fill in the unconscious living people one by one, the battle lost its suspense.
Blood spells are ineffective against the dead, and old Hunter was too late to summon the wandering spirits to pull up the four corpses.
Even if he could, the combat power of these corpses was no match for the returning living.
What’s more, with the blood spell completely cut off, he also fell into a weakened state, and was caught by Catching Goat chasing after him and slapping his shield on his body, flying out more than three meters away like a ragged sack.
But this piece of scarred wooden shield also died with it.
Heine was initially eager, waiting for the perfect moment to cut in.
But he consciously dismissed the idea when he saw the old Hunter push back the self-proclaimed “8 points of strength” of the goat catcher, pulling phantoms out of his bloody claws.
It is better to edge ob, this scale of battle, I do not go up to cause trouble is to make a contribution.
With the end of the battle, more than a dozen green light orbs from the four corpses tinkled and floated into his body.
The warmth this time was much stronger than before, and he felt like his body, which hadn’t been hydrated all night, suddenly surged with a whole new level of strength, and his mind cleared up quite a bit.
Mr. Xia walked over to the fallen Hunter, skillfully picking off the tendons of his target’s arms and legs to prevent him from rising up and hurting anyone.
One look and he hadn’t done this too often.
As Heine tightened the restraints, the two skeletons faithfully carried out the command to “leave him alive”.
He came to Old Hunter, who was shocked to see it was him, and then sneered: “You are a disgrace to the burial ground! Now that there are no more burial grounds, you can no longer sell your pathetic trinkets, hahaha cough…cough ……”
Heine’s face was calm, not enraged.
He remembered the other man shouting out an unfamiliar word when he was frightened by the catching of the sheep.
Spirit figurine.
It was bound to have something to do with the silver-white ghostly fire.
He leaned down to get closer to the other:
“Mr. Hunter, are these two spirit figurines powerful? I summoned them, I didn’t expect it, did I?”
Old Hunter rounded his eyes in disbelief:
“You, you …… No, it can’t be you …… You can’t be Tong-“
He suddenly shut up and laughed fiercely, “You’re trying to swindle me, aren’t you? You can’t possibly know, otherwise you wouldn’t have been dropped from school, hahaha ……”
Without waiting for Heine to pursue the question, the wound on the other party’s face seeped out black tainted blood, and his pupils were as black as ink in an instant!
Heine instantly realized that it was not good, and the electric shock mace was instantly pointed at the other party.
Thumb-thin arcs of electricity shot out, and Old Hunter’s body violently trembled and stopped moving.
But before that, a bizarre black line wrapped around Heine’s wrist.
No experience orbs appeared, and Heine was basically certain of his initial guess – he could only rely on summons to gain experience.
This was at least considered a plug-in, right?……
Immediately after that was a new problem.
He looked to his wrist, where there was a black double-ringed seal.
Within the circle were two vertical lines, as if a doorway had been pushed open.
His body didn’t have any abnormalities now, but there was no guarantee that it wouldn’t later.
With an idea, he pretended not to be able to see, rolled up his sleeves and scrutinized the marks by the light of the moon.
–actually letting his own skeleton take a good look.
Sure enough, Mr. Xia exclaimed in a low voice:
“F*ck what is this, a boss’s necromancy skill? Have you seen it before, Brother Goat?”
“I haven’t seen it, and he hasn’t used it on me ……” “Then I guess it’s exclusive to NPCs, triggering the plot, right?”
Heine’s heart sank.
But he didn’t show it, he just frowned slightly and lowered his sleeve.
He fumbled around with old Hunter for a while and found a set of keys, then returned to the cellar entrance.
Unwrapping the sacks one by one, it wasn’t hard to tell by the moonlight that these were four teachers from the Burrowing Ground, two men and two women, including Mr. Ruger, who had given him a zero for anger in his first summoning class.
Ruger was a withered little old man, close to old Hunter, and one of the few people who could stomach his rotten sausages and bean gumbo, but didn’t want to be put in a sack as well.
Heine turned on the pupils of the dead, and there were still no threads on the four – neither green nor silver.
But he saw a faint trace of death aura coming from the cellar, and suddenly remembered that there was a fifth sack, and hurriedly asked Catching Goat to carry the man up.
Opening the sack, Heine’s body trembled, as if the entire night’s gloom had been swept away ……
“Ms. Shiyara?”
Heine released the other person from the sack and untied the ropes on her hands and feet.
Shiala was completely passed out, her face pale and breathless.
However, in Heine’s field of vision, the death aura was not coming from her, but was instead blocked by a faint layer of black light as it attempted to invade her body.
“Fortunately, Ms. Death Whisperer is still sheltering her followers ……”
Heine breathed a sigh of relief as he carried Ciara into the cellar and made her lean against a clean corner.
Catching Sheep stared at her for a while, then suddenly asked, “Mr. Xia, do you think this person looks like the banshee Shiala?”
“You’re asking me? I’m not standing in front of her, the whole time around the back ah ……”
“Also, I said that this boss hit me how like I didn’t eat, it turned out to be less of a damage deepening.”
“If I had known I would have left an elite monster, to give you on the strength.”
“That wouldn’t be necessary.”
Heine continued to search for the source of the death aura while listening to the two spit out their words.
Shiala wouldn’t be able to wake up for a while, and it was imperative to go down there and find Headmaster Gare.
Mr. Xia mentioned that Gare had become a “White Bone Master” by entering the duplicate, but he thought that there was something else going on.
If there is anyone in the Buried Bone Land other than Xiara who doesn’t want him to be expelled, it could only be Gare.
Although the principal had never openly expressed his support for him, Heine knew that it would be difficult for him to stay in school for three years based on Chiara’s insistence alone.
At the same time this principal was the key player in keeping the Burrowing Ground from going to paranoia and extremes for so many years, and now that the second-five was dead he had to tell Garey about it, and maybe it would change his fate of getting into Ben.
In addition, he could remember every word that the two mentioned, what “the most critical tomb raiding quest in the early stages”, what “can be used up to level 15 suit” and so on.
The three-year period had come and gone, and it was finally the greedy adventurer’s turn to take the stage!
“Found it!”
Heine uncovered the straw mat used for camouflage and lifted the weeds to discover a locked stone slab.
It was completely embedded in the ground, with no grip or pull ring, just three blackened keyholes.
He pulled out the old Hunter’s set of keys-twenty-two of them.
“Oh wow, it’s finished.” Catch the sheep said, “So many keys to take three arrangements, the result is almost tens of thousands, have to try until the monkey years to go, in the first place, this copy of the door how to open? I play all the time to go through the front door.”
“It was also the front door in the first place, the earth elemental cleared the door buried in the ground. As for the back door, I’m not sure, it’s also my first time here …… Fuck me, this dude is a tough guy!”
As he marveled, Heine took out a set of keys that were obviously imitations.
Naturally, these were all his accumulations from three years, the cemetery, the library, the storage room, the meat storage, the kitchen ……
There were quite a few places he had secretly visited.
“Suddenly I don’t think he was expelled unjustly.”
“There’s one thing to be said for that, indeed.”
Heine wordlessly accepted the compliments of the two men, comparing three unseen keys.
Now there were only six results.
Apparently he was lucky, and after inserting the key for the second time, he heard a “buzz”.
The stone door slowly opened.
