The strangeness is coming, I build a forbidden kingdom of God in the end times

Chapter 110 Summoning Skeleton Warriors, the Prototype of the Sea of ​​the Dead

[Blood Shield]

Proficiency: Beginner
Extraordinary level: Level 2

Effect: By consuming mental energy, using one's own blood, or other blood magic media, a layer of blood shield is created outside the body to defend against upcoming attacks.

The stronger your own blood or the medium of blood magic is, the higher the defense of the blood shield you create will be.

……

"It looks pretty good, let's go out and try it out to see how it works."

Su Hao nodded, left the room and came outside the shelter.

Then, Su Hao took out a drop of scarlet blood as a medium for casting spells and used the blood shield.

next moment.

The scarlet blood in Su Hao's hand quickly expanded and stretched, turning into a blood-red spherical shield that wrapped his body.

Afterwards, Su Hao used the Scarlet Touch to summon ten scarlet tentacles, which lashed towards himself.

Bang bang bang——!
Amidst a series of dull sounds, ten scarlet tentacles lashed the blood shield fiercely from different directions.

When Su Hao was still at the first level of the extraordinary realm, he was whipped by these scarlet tentacles and his body was torn to pieces in an instant.

However, this seemingly thin blood shield was only severely deformed after being whipped by ten scarlet tentacles, and did not break immediately.

It was not until the second round of attacks from the scarlet tentacles that the shield was successfully shattered.

"This defense is pretty good!"

Su Hao nodded with satisfaction. Through this simple test, he could basically confirm that it was impossible for a first-level transcendent to break this seemingly thin layer of blood shield.

Even for an ordinary second-level transcendent, it would not be so easy to break through this blood shield.

Moreover, the Blood Shield is just a skill that has not been synthesized. If we can find a suitable material and synthesize it once, the defense power will definitely be improved.

"Don't worry about this matter, let's take a look at another skill first."

Su Hao opened his personal information panel again and looked at the skill of summoning skeleton warriors.

[Blood Shield] is obviously obtained after becoming a second-level flesh and blood manipulator, and the remaining [Summon Skeleton Warrior] is obtained after becoming a second-level necromancer.

According to the description of Demon Bonebreaker, there is a certain chance that after using it, one will be able to gain a skill that the demon had when it was alive.

In addition, this summoning of skeleton warriors is not just summoning ordinary skeleton monsters.

Therefore, Su Hao's expectations for this skill are higher than the blood shield.

……

【Summon Skeleton Warrior】

Proficiency: Beginner
Extraordinary level: Level 2

Effect: Consume mental energy to summon a skeleton warrior from enough bones.

The higher the level of the bone medium used, the stronger the summoned skeleton warriors will be and the greater their number will be.

There is no limit on the number of skeleton warriors that can be summoned at the same time, only a limit on their duration. The stronger the user's mental power, the longer the duration of the skeleton warriors.

After the duration ends, the skeleton warriors who have not yet died will turn into bone media again.

……

"There is no upper limit on the number. This is much better than summoning skeleton monsters."

Summoning skeletons is one of the Necromancer's signature skills, but at the second level, the number of skeletons that can be summoned at the same time is limited. You can't summon as many as you want.

However, there is no limit on the number when summoning skeleton warriors.

As long as there is mental strength and enough bone media, you can recruit skeleton warriors endlessly.

However, if the summoned skeleton warrior is not even at the first-level extraordinary level, Su Hao will not look down on him.

"Let's try to see what level the Skeleton Warriors are at."

Su Hao closed the skill interface, took out the skeleton of a first-level skeleton monster from the storage bag and placed it on the ground.

Then, he mobilized his mental power and communicated with a black rune in the shape of a skull deep in his soul.

"call!"

next moment.

A black magic circle appeared under the skeleton of the skeleton monster, and black mist spread out, wrapping the entire skeleton.

This lasted for about three seconds. As the black mist dissipated, five tall skeleton warriors holding black spears stood on the ground and appeared in Su Hao's eyes.

These five skeleton warriors are about two meters and two centimeters tall. Their bones are black and extremely thick. Only one bone in their arms is thicker than that of an ordinary adult.

Even the spears in their hands were thicker than ordinary spears, making them look difficult to deal with.

Inside their skulls, a ball of black soul fire was burning. They were silently staring at Su Hao, waiting for his orders.

"Ah? A skeleton of a skeleton monster can actually summon five skeleton warriors?!"

Su Hao couldn't help but be slightly stunned. He was originally still worried whether a skeleton monster's skeleton could successfully summon a skeleton warrior.

As a result, not only was a skeleton warrior successfully summoned, but it was also the skeleton of a skeleton warrior. Five skeleton warriors were summoned at once!
More importantly, after summoning the skeleton monster, Su Hao's mental energy consumption was fully recovered in just one or two breaths.

This means that as long as there are enough bones as a medium, Su Hao can continuously summon skeleton warriors. He can even summon an army of skeletons when he reaches the second level of the extraordinary realm!
"Could it be that these skeleton warriors are just for show, so the consumption is so small?"

Su Hao frowned slightly, then looked at one of the skeleton warriors and opened the other party's information panel.

These skeleton warriors are all summoned by Su Hao, so he can naturally check their relevant information.

【Skeleton Warrior】

Extraordinary level: first level

Skill: Brute Charge (Charge forward at an extremely fast speed, causing impact damage to all enemies in front.)
Introduction: A skeleton warrior with excellent strength and defense, relatively slow movements, and no sense of pain. He has stronger combat power than most first-level transcendents.

……

"Ah? Extraordinary first-level? Or an Extraordinary first-level skeleton warrior with its own skills?"

Looking at the skeleton warrior's information panel, Su Hao couldn't help but widen his eyes.

I just spent a tiny amount of mental energy, plus a skeleton that could be transformed back after the summoning was over, and I summoned five extraordinary first-level skeleton warriors?

Moreover, these skeleton warriors are all first-level skeleton warriors with their own skills. Their actual combat power is stronger than many first-level transcendents. This is simply too outrageous!

Afterwards, Su Hao used scarlet tentacles and blood shields to conduct a one-hour test on these five first-level skeleton warriors.

The reason why the test stopped after one hour was because the summoning time of these skeleton warriors could only last for one hour.

An hour later, it turned into a skeleton again.

However, it is already very good to be able to have an hour of summoning time.

Besides, the summoning time has ended, but it doesn’t mean that you can’t continue summoning.

"call!"

Su Hao snapped his fingers lightly, and under the cover of black fog, five skeleton warriors appeared in front of him again.

Again, as long as Su Hao's mental strength is sufficient and he has enough bone media on his body, he can recruit skeleton warriors infinitely!
After an hour of testing these skeleton warriors, Su Hao had a deeper understanding of them.

Just as the information panel showed, these first-level skeleton warriors did indeed possess extraordinary first-level strength.

Although there is no way to compare with a monster like Su Hao, he is still much stronger than many first-level transcendents.

It is no problem to kill first-level monsters like Bloody Butcher and Stone Man in 1V1.

The Skeleton Warrior's built-in skill - Brute Charge - is very practical. It only takes about one second to prepare when activating the skill.

After the skill is activated, you can charge forward one hundred meters within five seconds, causing damage to all enemies along the way.

The power of the charge is also considerable, and it is basically impossible for an ordinary first-level transcendent to block it.

The only drawback is that the speed is still a bit too slow.

For ordinary people, running 100 meters in 5 seconds is impossible.

But for a first-level transcendent, running one hundred meters in five seconds is not a very impressive speed. In addition, there is one second of preparation time, so it is not very difficult to dodge such an attack.

However, it is easy to dodge the brute force charge of a single Skeleton Warrior, but if five, ten, or a hundred Skeleton Warriors line up and launch a brute force charge, it will not be so easy to dodge!
It might take some effort for others to get these skeleton warriors, who have no intelligence, to obey orders and charge.

But for Su Hao, who has two souls in one body and can do two things at the same time, it is not a difficult task.

"Alas, what a pity, there aren't many skeletons left on the body."

Su Hao sighed helplessly. He ran too fast at the beginning, and only a dozen skeletons were left on his body. Moreover, these skeleton armors can also extract a white bone essence, which is a good thing that can increase the hardness of bones.

If used by an undead creature, there is a certain chance that it will increase the affinity of the bone element, thereby increasing the power of its own bone magic and increasing resistance to bone magic.

"Eh? In my current state, can I use the bone essence..."

Su Hao touched his chin, a thoughtful look on his face.

After Su Hao completed his advancement, his racial identity expanded to include a new race, the Bone Demon, in addition to the human race.

Judging from the name, bone demons are either demons or undead creatures.

Moreover, all the bones in Su Hao's body turned black, and there was a river of blood inside the bones.

At the same time, Su Hao's blood, muscles, and internal organs are no longer necessary. Even if they are gone, it will not have any effect on him.

It’s just that Su Hao is used to living as a human being. He does not and cannot abandon his flesh and blood and organs.

But it is undeniable that Su Hao is indeed not a pure human being. He just can't be sure whether he is an undead creature or not.

"You'll know after you try it."

Su Hao didn't think any more and immediately took out the bone essence he had extracted the day before.

"No, no, we can't just use it up like this."

Just as Su Hao was about to swallow the bone essence, suddenly an idea flashed in his mind and he stopped what he was doing.

Then, he had an idea and took out two skeletons of first-level skeleton monsters from the storage bag.

"refining!"

next moment.

The skeletons of the two first-level skeleton monsters on the ground were enveloped by a blood-red light.

With Su Hao's current mental strength, refining first-level extraordinary items would be extremely easy.

A moment later, as the blood-red light faded, a spherical bone the size of a little finger appeared on the ground.

After undead creatures use bone essence, there is only a small chance that their affinity for bone elements can be increased.

If you want to increase this probability, you naturally have to synthesize it first.

"synthesis!"

Su Hao picked up the two bone essences on the ground and combined them with the one in his hand.

Just as the synthetic golden light enveloped the three bone essences and formed a golden ball of light, a message suddenly popped up in front of Su Hao's eyes.

[Congratulations, your proficiency in the Heart of Synthesis has been raised to minor success, and the number of synthesis times per day has increased to five. You can now synthesize fourth-level extraordinary items! ]

……

"What the hell?! There's actually an unexpected surprise!"

Su Hao raised his eyebrows slightly, with a look of surprise on his face.

After the proficiency level is raised to minor success, the upper limit of items that can be synthesized increases from level three to level four.

The number of synthesis per day has also increased by one, and now it can be synthesized 5 times a day.

Although it only increases the synthesis opportunity once, it is still a huge improvement for Su Hao, and can further shorten his development time.

In addition, as proficiency increases, the time required for synthesis is greatly shortened.

Originally, it would take at least several minutes to synthesize a first-level extraordinary item.

Now, after the quantity has been increased, the synthesis of three extraordinary first-level bone essences can be completed in less than 10 seconds.

As the golden ball of light burst out with dazzling light, a spherical bone as white as jade and the size of a baby's fist floated in Su Hao's hand.

【First level dry bone essence】

Extraordinary level: first level

Effect: After taking it, undead creatures can increase the hardness of their bones, improve their affinity for bone elements, and have a certain chance of gaining the passive skill - Withering.

……

"Doesn't this mean that the effect of increasing the affinity of bone elements has changed from a certain probability to 100%?"

After reading the identification results of the dried bone essence, Su Hao nodded with satisfaction.

Although the three first-level extraordinary bone essences, after being synthesized, the extraordinary level of the dry bone essence is still only first level, and the usage requirements are also limited to undead creatures.

However, even though they are both at the first level of transcendence, the effect of the dry bone essence is not comparable to that of the white bone essence.

Even if it is the second-level white bone essence, its effect cannot be compared with the withered bone essence.

After the white bone essence was synthesized into the dry bone essence, a qualitative change occurred. It not only enhanced the affinity of the bone element, but also increased it from a certain probability to 100%.

And after using the essence of withered bones, there is a certain chance to gain the passive skill - withering.

Although Su Hao had identified the results of the withered bone essence, he still did not know the effect of the withered skill.

However, passive skills are different from active skills. They are skills that can be triggered automatically without active use.

No matter how rubbish the Wither skill is, it can still bring certain benefits to Su Hao. In short, there will be no harm.

However, the prerequisite for all this is that it must be used by undead creatures.

"I hope that the Bone Demon race can allow me to possess the characteristics of an undead creature."

Su Hao took a deep breath, picked up the essence of the dried bones in front of him, and stuffed it into his mouth.

He tilted his neck back and forcefully swallowed the ball, which was the size of a baby's fist.

next moment.

The essence of this dry bone turned into a white energy containing pure bone elements, which merged into Su Hao's bones throughout his body, slowly increasing the hardness of his bones.

"It's done!"

Seeing this scene, Su Hao showed joy, which meant that the essence of dried bones had begun to take effect.

After integrating this white energy, in addition to the increased hardness of his bones, Su Hao also felt that his affinity for bone elements had also been significantly improved.

If you summon skeleton warriors at this time, perhaps the duration of the skeleton warriors can be increased by three to five minutes, and the combat effectiveness can also be improved a little.

As for the impact of bone element affinity on other things, Su Hao couldn't judge it. After all, he didn't have any other bone magic yet.

"It's a pity that I didn't get the Wither skill."

After Su Hao had completely absorbed the essence of the dry bone, he still did not receive any skill prompts, which made him shake his head.

Not to mention, Su Hao was not too disappointed. As long as the amount of withered bone essence was large enough, it would be only a matter of time before he obtained the withering skill.

In order to obtain enough dry bone essence, a large number of first-level skeleton monsters are needed, and the cemetery where Uncle Andrew is located happens to have countless skeleton monsters.

"It seems that no matter what, I have to find time to go to Uncle Andrew's cemetery again."

Su Hao nodded secretly, then he didn't think any more and returned to the bedroom.

After his proficiency in the Heart of Synthesis increased, he had another chance to synthesize today. As for what to synthesize, he also had some ideas.

In other words, he has already planned what he needs to synthesize these days.

After sorting, Su Hao divided the items on his body into two categories.

One is to increase one's own combat power, such as equipment and skills such as Gravity Rock Axe, Blood Magic Book and Scarlet Touch.

The other type is items such as purple bamboo seeds and water purification devices that are beneficial to the long-term development of the territory.

The increase in his own strength allows Su Hao to explore more dangerous areas with richer rewards, such as the dark dungeon.

It is also important to develop territory. Today's new world is so big. It is just a dark forest, which is larger than many countries on the original earth.

If you want to better explore the world and gain a foothold in this world, you must develop the territory, enhance the strength of territory members, and make them capable of standing on their own as soon as possible.

However, relatively speaking, the higher priority at the moment is to improve Su Hao's own strength. Only when his strength is strong enough can he develop the territory better.

Then he thought about it and took out a white wolf fur and a blood-red robe from the storage bag.

[Torn Bloody Robe] was once a divine artifact, but now it is severely damaged and its divine power has been completely lost. The only function left is to slightly enhance blood magic and have a certain self-repair ability.

And it is no longer possible to repair it through normal means.

"Just because it can't be repaired by normal means doesn't mean the Synthetic Heart can't be repaired either."

Su Hao smiled slightly, and immediately mobilized his mental power to communicate with the synthetic heart rune deep in his soul.
