There's a skeleton dungeon connected to my basement.

Chapter 617, Song of the Soul

Walking in the darkness, the deeper you go, the more you can see those yellowed skeletons. If you were to walk on them barefoot, you could probably clearly feel the rough, uneven texture caused by the overlapping of the bones.

Here, you can finally see the spirits of the dead.

One by one, they were listless, crawling out of the pile of bones.

Not many, not to the point of being piled up densely in front of you.

But there were quite a few; tiny, graceful flames flickered quietly in the darkness.

Xiao Yang was quite adept at handling such situations.

"He is a killer."

"Undead Slayer!"

The only thing I'm not used to is that my axe is broken.

In fact, the reason why Xiao Yang went to cause trouble for these evil gods during this period was to collect some suitable materials to recast the Deep Slaughterer.

"Is it necessary to use authority to deal with these guys?"

After thinking for a while, Xiao Yang felt that this was really like using a cannon to kill a mosquito, and in fact he still had another old friend on him.

Xiao Yang held an ordinary-looking cane in his hand.

"The updated and optimized Justice and Consolation!"

This scene seems somewhat familiar.

The undead do not experience fear, especially the lower-ranking undead.

A skeleton covered in decaying equipment noticed Xiao Yang's approach, turned its bony head, paused briefly, and then launched a charge without hesitation, its pale flames flickering in its eye sockets.

With a series of clicking sounds, it bared its teeth and claws and charged towards Xiao Yang.

Then, he was hit hard on the head with a stick.

An unexpected and exaggerated scene unfolded.

The entire skull shattered, vanished, and turned into dust the instant it was struck by the righteous consolation, leaving only a few golden specks of light lingering in mid-air and slowly dissipating.

Literally, Xiao Yang turned the skeleton into bone dust.

This scene made Xiao Yang pause for a moment. After thinking about it carefully, it didn't seem surprising. Xiao Yang had indeed not seriously dealt with these cats and dogs for too long.

He was a being capable of fighting against the pinnacle of mythology, except for the pillars, and he wielded a semi-divine artifact that was most effective against evil creatures like skeletons. With a single, proper strike, he would reduce his opponent to dust, and incidentally, even the remaining remnants of the skeleton's soul would be sent to the afterlife.

"You are a skeleton, just awakened from a long period of desolation, crawling out of a dark wasteland of bones, and discovering a living being approaching, brandishing a weapon."

then.

"Die."

Perhaps in your final moments, your remaining soul, about to be liberated, radiating golden light, can leave behind its last thoughts.

"It's so... smooth!"

For these skeletons, it all ended quickly and painlessly.

It was quite relaxing for a while!
It brought with it a strange, pleasant feeling.

Xiao Yang quite liked the feel of it, and he might spend some time beating up these skeletons.

Then, a very close click sound rang out.

Xiao Gu appeared out of nowhere, standing beside Xiao Yang.

Its appearance made Xiao Yang naturally smile. He placed his large hand on the little guy's head, but unfortunately, the little guy was very wary this time, and it dodged before Xiao Yang's hand could land.

A flash.

Appearing a little distance from Xiao Yang, Xiao Gu accidentally wandered into the vicinity of a high-level undead that was lying dormant among the skeletons.

A flame suddenly ignited, and a figure clad in decaying armor staggered to his feet. "A legendary-rank skeleton warrior."

In this scene, a golden sun appears in Xiao Yang's hand, which is the embodiment of the power of hope and the most direct manifestation of the power of hope.

In an instant, this vast abyssal space lit up.

The corpses were awakened by this light.

To be fair, using a high-ranking authority as a large torch or light bulb is a waste of resources, but it depends on the comparison.

Judging from Xiao Yang's fighting style of gathering the power in his hand and using it as a golden command to launch a powerful attack on the enemy, using the power of hope as a torch is already a very valuable method of application.

"The effect is amazing."

From elite to epic, and even many powerful undead of demigod rank, they all rose up and were ignited at the same moment.

Regardless of their rank or strength, all undead are equally vulnerable in the face of the dazzling flame of hope, and have little ability to resist, just like candles that have been lit.

It's likely that Xiao Yang will be able to set another incredibly impressive kill record in the next instant.

Xiao Yang remained remarkably calm about everything he had caused.

He felt he shouldn't waste his time on these weak undead.

Let's just give them a break.

Moreover, the deliverance and purification are not necessarily a bad thing for these dead souls. If there are any particularly stubborn obsessions afterward, he will collect them into the Banner of Heroes and take them to the Goddess of Rest.

"This hope will be a little dazzling!"

And so, Xiao Yang was about to achieve the fastest and most ruthless clear.

Until a somewhat off-key humming sound rang out.

At that moment, it was as if the world had been put on pause.

The original coldness, the sun held high, all vanished in an instant, and both became a radiant smile with a hint of encouragement, and the applause from hands clapping together.

This transformation can only be described as quite rapid.

What exactly happened?

For a moment, it left people somewhat puzzled.

Her gaze followed Xiao Yang's gaze.

It was a little guy with an exceptionally shiny head who was squatting down, and the off-key humming sound was coming from the little guy.

"Little Bone is singing!"

Yes, Xiao Gu has started singing.

After all this time, Xiao Yang had only ever heard the clicking sound that Xiao Gu made.

This was the first time he had ever heard Xiao Gu make any sound other than clicking.

"This is simply a huge milestone!"

As viewers, we were very cautious.

It's a bit of a shame that this song was sung for that legendary skeleton warrior.
