Chapter 72: Found the magic stone of death

Ethan changed Beretta's magazine neatly, then took out the spare short arrows, and loaded them one by one on the wristband. His eyes kept patrolling left and right, trying to find the hidden enemy.

The flames created by using fireballs and flame arrows have gradually disappeared. Even the torches originally used were affected and extinguished during the battle. They could only be illuminated by the glow sticks scattered by Ethan.

"Light the torch."

Although the torch was extinguished, it was not damaged. It can still be used after re-igniting it.

The light stick can be used for a long time, but the lighting range is too small and the light is not bright enough.

Mata and Eliza moved quickly. After the torch was re-lit, the surrounding environment of the few people was much brighter, and Ethan also noticed the details that had been overlooked in the dimness.

"Back!"

A few people immediately backed up and gathered together, only Ethan stood a little forward, and reinserted Beretta back into the holster, holding the sword hilt in both hands and guarding.

Almost at the same time when everyone regained their defensive positions, the corpse that had fallen on the ground began to make strange noises, as if something exploded, and one after another, pale white skeletons emerged from the corpse.

"Skeleton soldier?"

The zombies that had been killed by their heads were turned into skeleton soldiers again, but their skulls were restored to an undamaged appearance. They were holding bone weapons that exuded pale light and more deadly aura. These weapons were of different types. One, all swords, guns and bows can be seen.

"If these skeleton soldiers know how to cooperate, I am afraid it will be more troublesome than the group of zombies."

Ethan once again raised his hand to release a fireball. The wristband of his right hand can release the fireball five times. After using up, Ethan needs to provide extra energy for recharging or wait for it to slowly recover.

used once before, this is the second shot.

The effect is still very good. A few skeleton soldiers who just stood up were directly blown into pieces, and some of the small pieces were burned to ashes by the erupting flames, even if they wanted to put them together again.

"The defense is not as good as the previous zombies."

Raising his sword to block an arrow that was launched, Ethan glanced at the arrow that bounced to the ground. It was also a bony arrow, but the hardness was amazing. The moment he himself was flying, it was not a cut. After a stab, the arrow just flew to the side and was not cut off.

"That's the hardness!"

There is no time to continue to observe carefully, the few skeleton soldiers who are close to him have rushed up, and the bone sword in his hand slashes at Ethan from all angles.

"Sure enough, I know how to cooperate."

The most troublesome situation happened. Ethan found that since entering this cave, as if he didn't want something to happen, it would often happen. I don't know if my luck has suddenly deteriorated, or he has awakened some strange attributes.

There were too many weapons to attack. Ethan used the ice shield in his left wrist brace to protect his left body. Holding the sword in his right hand, he fiercely used an oblique slash and attacked his bones with two handles. The long sword smashed in the direction, and it also skewed a sharply angled spear, making this killer move hidden in many attacks futile. It just slipped over his light armor, causing a burst of harshness. sound.

Passive beating is not Ethan's style. After defending this wave of offensive, he immediately counterattacked. The ice arrows that had just been filled in his left hand fired in succession, and five short arrows burst together to produce a stronger chill. After freezing several recent skeleton soldiers and blocking their actions, Ethan once again summoned the ice shield. This time it was not for defense, but for offense.

Ice Shield is an ice shield formed by the condensation of cold air, which can cause physical damage. However, this kind of shield strike will have a greater impact on the ice shield and will destroy the ice shield, so no one has ever used it like this.

Ethan doesn't care about this. The ice shield will explode the frozen air contained in it at the moment it is destroyed, which is the effect of buying time for the user. This time, Ethan was also used as a means of attack.

The frost ripples with the cold wind flashed away, and several besieging skeleton soldiers were completely frozen into ice blocks, and Ethan used the side of his long sword to shoot them all into pieces one by one.

After three hits and five divided by two, Ethan solved the remaining skeleton soldiers one by one. Although the skeleton soldiers were much more powerful than the group of zombies, Ethan was easier to deal with because he killed many skeleton soldiers in the dark world. The group of skeleton soldiers did not show any special features, but was better eliminated.

When he saw Helena wipe out the skeleton soldiers in front of him, Ethan began to organize his equipment.

"You are strong."

In this continuous battle, Helena consumed a lot of energy and physical strength, stood still and panted for a while before slowly recovering.

Seeing that Ethan is not abnormal at all, some envy arose in my heart.

"You are also very strong."

Ethan politely complimented and went back. In fact, Helena's strength can only be regarded as good. In the eyes of most ordinary people, she may be considered a strong, but in the eyes of Ethan, who is used to seeing the real strong, it is nothing at all. But you can’t talk like that in chat, just opening your mouth and saying that you are weak will only offend people.

Helena was obviously self-aware, and she was not proud of Ethan's praise. Instead, she shook her head helplessly, turned her head and checked her condition with her two men.

In the fierce battle, no one can guarantee whether there are any wounds left. If it is not found in time, it may cause irreparable consequences.

If it wasn't for the difference between men and women, Ethan would even take the initiative to help check, and now let them do these things by themselves.

Ethan took out a flashlight from his backpack, then carefully inspected each corpse, feeling the lifeless state lingering on it, and then completely knocked out a few skeletons that did not seem to have been completely wiped out, and then returned to it. In front of Helena.

"I took a rough look. These should be the adventurers who landed on this island before. They were eroded by the energy of this island and turned into the kind of zombies before. Then after being knocked down by us, the energy in the body was not Did not dissipate, so they turned into skeletons, regained their mobility, and launched an attack on us."

"Because in the eyes of these dead creatures, our living beings are as conspicuous as a fire in the dark. What is certain is that if we move on, similar situations will happen... After all, we don’t know how many there have been before. A group of adventurers have been here."

Originally, he thought that the enemy was only the boatman who had landed on the island, but recalled that the number of corpses in the previous battles was obviously much higher than the number of people who landed on the island before.

Either there were more adventurers who landed on this island before, and they were also eroded by the island’s rich death energy and turned into undead creatures.

Either the island itself has the ability to create undead creatures.

Either way, the situation ahead is full of dangers.

"Then what's your decision?"

"what?"

Unexpectedly, Helena would suddenly range herself, Ethan was taken aback.

"I want to keep going."

Now what attracted his attention was no longer the magic stone, which was most likely to be of death attribute, but the spatial structure of this place did not conform to common sense. What he wanted to find was the possible existence of the magic stone of spatial energy, or just a mass. Space energy.

Helena heard Ethan’s answer, shook her lips and nodded firmly: "I will keep going." After speaking, she also glanced at Ethan and saw that he went through two battles in succession without any injuries. After I was still full of energy, I strengthened my belief even more.

Ethan wanted to persuade him, but after seeing the other's firm eyes, he swallowed what he wanted to say again, just nodded to indicate that he knew.

turned his head, Ethan opened the road with a flashlight, and the situation and danger ahead were beyond his previous expectations. He is not going to hide these good things anymore, and use everything that he can use.

Helena didn't ask him what the thing was, let alone why he didn't take it out before. To survive in this sea, who wouldn't keep some hole cards? Don't talk about Ethan, they also have hole cards that they haven't used on their bodies, let alone tell a stranger they just met.

Only when Ethan can’t see it, Helena will touch her side waist. There is a long wound there. Although it has been treated, there is still blood oozing out.

was about to deal with it again, suddenly Ethan stopped in front of him, and then handed a few vials.

"Powdered can be disinfected by sprinkling on the wound, and cream can be used to stop bleeding when applied to the wound."

Helena was stunned, but Marta took it as soon as she saw the situation, and then directly helped Helena deal with the wound.

"Thank you."

"You are welcome, at least we are now comrades in the same camp."

Ethan shook his head, these are all simple tasks, he didn't want to use this to win favors. But if the blood continues to bleed like this, it will be of no benefit to everyone.

After being treated again, Helena's wound finally stopped the bleeding, and several people continued to move toward the depths of the cave.

After passing through the open area, they entered a slightly narrow passage.

This time they did not walk in the passage for too long, and soon came to another open space. Moreover, there is a luminous source in this cave. Although the pale light makes people feel uncomfortable, it is better than complete darkness.

Ethan looked up and observed that what was emitting a pale light was floating in the center of this space. It was a rock about the size of a fist, and it was undoubtedly a special magic stone of this world.

"This rich death energy... really is a magic stone of death attribute!"

In addition, Ethan also noticed that there was another wave of energy that he was more familiar with at the top of the cave.

"Space-time energy!"
