Goblin Heavy Dependence

Chapter 74 Chopping melons and vegetables
call--

Along with a sharp and piercing whistle, a cold wind suddenly blew through the vast and gloomy cemetery.

The temperature around, which was already low, dropped sharply again.

A grayish-white glow that was visible to the naked eye, like mist, gradually emerged in the air.

That is a manifestation of the highly concentrated aura of the undead.

“Galala…”

The creepy sound of bones rubbing against each other came from deep in the soil amid the vibration of dust on the ground.

Just like a sprout breaking through the soil, mud and gravel rolled down, and the dazzling paleness appeared in front of everyone on the field.

It only takes a few seconds.

Nearly thirty skeletons of various sizes rose from the graves surrounding the cabin.

A pair of deep, empty eyes quietly stared at the people in front of the door.

I had obviously already prepared myself mentally and had experienced many sudden encounters.

Xia Nan still felt a tingling sensation on his scalp and was unsure.

Different from the dangerous and manic monsters in the misty forest.

These white skeletons with a cold glow before my eyes had no flesh on their bodies, so naturally there was no possibility of them roaring or howling.

They just look at you in silence.

Carrying the gray deathly air in the air, it approaches you step by step with the sound of bones colliding.

That kind of invisible pressure was even heavier than facing twice the number of goblins.

If it were someone with a weaker psychological endurance, he would probably have dropped his weapon and run away.

"call."

Xia Nan breathed slowly, exhaling a stream of white smoke into the cold air.

The hilt of the sword in my palm became increasingly hot.

hum-

Behind me, the high-pitched and passionate sound of the piano sounded at the right time.

In an instant, the originally silent and stiff atmosphere on the field was swept away.

Morale boosted!

Xia Nan stepped forward suddenly, quickly closing the distance while carefully observing the enemy's appearance.

Compared to the skeleton undead that had surrounded them and were gradually approaching.

The skeleton that crawled out of the mud under the tomb-guarding human bone sentry seemed to be a more elite individual among them.

The thick and solid frame is obviously several sizes larger - reaching nearly two meters;

The bones are also paler in color, and the joints are faintly covered with a grayish-white light, which increases the stability of the body and prevents it from falling apart easily.

He was still wearing half a set of dirty leather armor, a small round shield on his left forearm, and a rusty and cracked one-handed sword grasped in the bony fingers of his right hand.

He looked like an adventurer.

Xia Nan had never fought against such an enemy before, and he didn't know how strong the opponent was, so he didn't dare to be careless.

He glanced at them, measuring the fighting distance between them in his mind.

Finally, you are out of the range of the opponent's sword, and you only need to take a step forward to attack.

Slow down your pace,

Change to a safer parrying posture, roam around and look for opportunities.

But surprisingly, the appearance of the Adventurer Skeleton was quite shocking, as if it came with its own BGM.

The reaction was obviously a beat slower.

It seemed that he had not yet adapted to the environment in the material world. When Xia Nan had already left the front and swam to the side.

Then, as if delayed, it swung the rusty sword in its hand forcefully towards the air in front of it.

"boom!"

The cracked blade suddenly embedded itself into the soil.

No breaks.

However, the recoil force caused the skeleton arm that was holding the hilt of the sword to tremble violently.

Xia Nan could even clearly see the bone fragments that fell from the surface of the opponent's ulna.

His eyes, which had been sharp due to his intense concentration in the battle, suddenly became strange.

The action never stops.

His fighting instinct made him subconsciously seize the opportunity when his opponent attacked. He bent his right arm to gather strength and suddenly stepped forward with his left foot.

【Spin Slash】!
hum-

Stirring up the water mist, the dark brown wooden sword turned into a sharp arc of light.

A bright, hot flame flashed through the air.

The pale bones that seemed thick and powerful were under the sword blade that was emitting flames.

There is no defense at all.

It was like it was made of paper and was cut in pieces in an instant.

It was so smooth and neat that even Xia Nan herself couldn't react.

The next second, the skeleton was cut in half by him and fell to the ground like a broken toy.

"Huh? That's it?"

Looking in front of him, he saw a half-skeleton that was like an overturned turtle, unable to turn around. It could only face the ground and swing the sword around randomly.

Xia Nan suddenly wondered if he had been too cautious just now.

Come to think of it.

After training [Spin Slash] to level 5, his combat ability has surpassed that of ordinary low-level adventurers.
The blue wooden sword in his hand has a damage bonus against undead creatures, which makes it almost super-model-like when facing undead of the same level as Tim and the skeleton soldiers in front of him.

If it touches you, you will be injured; if it touches a vital part, you will die.

Kill one with one sword, faster than cutting vegetables.

He casually finished off the enemy, splitting the adventurer's skeleton's head in half.

Then he cut off his right arm that was holding the one-handed sword, and saw that the opponent seemed to be completely dead and no longer moved.

Xia Nancai took a few steps back and looked towards the other side of the battlefield.

The sound of the piano that was originally echoing in the air had stopped at some point.

The lute, slightly heavy for the halfling's small body, fell quietly to the ground.

Most of the schools of "Bards" before obtaining professional levels, even those true professionals who are still far from the extraordinary boundaries and have weak spellcasting abilities.

It is also rare to be able to carry out a complete battle solely through musical instruments.

They often need help from their teammates and carry handy weapons with them.

If necessary, he can personally fight in the battlefield like an assassin or a warrior.

As a light-footed halfling, Alton will travel to every corner of the continent of Ephra for the rest of his life, so he naturally possesses good combat capabilities.

I saw him holding two exquisite and miniature scimitars in his hands, moving flexibly under the skeleton.

Its small and nimble body, like that of a weasel, made it impossible for those slow and stiff skeletons to catch it.

Often, they would only take a few steps forward before their leg bones were broken and they would fall to the ground in a mess.

Meanwhile, Ingram, the sheriff of Caranforth.

Finally, for the first time, he showed his fighting ability in front of Xia Nan.

"Buzz bang!"

The one-handed hammer that flickered with golden light slammed into the forehead of a skeleton.

Like miniature gunpowder, a golden light suddenly flashed on the hammer surface.

When he looked again, half of the skeleton's head had disappeared.

The holy light, which is also extremely lethal to undead creatures, makes the sheriff's speed of killing enemies almost the same as Xia Nan who has the wooden sword [Green Pine].

Often, with one blow of the hammer, the skeleton in front of him would lose its ability to fight.

Another clean blow from the hammer would kill him completely.

His fighting style is as tough as his burly body.

He hardly dodged and just rushed into the pile of skeletons, smashing them around.

Even if a skeleton gets close, it can often only scratch a few light white scratches on the surface of the light plate armor on the body.

Xia Nan felt a little envious.

"This set of standard equipment should be issued by the government, so I don't have to spend any money on it."

"Maybe even the maintenance costs can be reimbursed."

Tsk.

I don’t know if River Valley Town is still short of a sheriff.
