Skeletons... skeletons with longbows, skeletons with spears, swords, and shields.
They were densely packed together, resembling a small army of skeletons!
“Anyi!” Lycorina called out as she turned around.
"I know."
Chapter 109 Long Blue Stripe, Willful
"They appeared out of thin air too!" Karen shouted back.
Just like the first few skeleton soldiers, a large number of skeleton armies appeared in Karen's field of vision without warning on both sides of the corridor.
A flash of white light appeared in An Yi's hand, and the [Hero's Sword] appeared in his hand.
"Aren't we going to use the slime sword?" Lycorina asked.
“The slime sword is not suitable for attacking,” Annie said calmly.
In particular, attack these bony bumps.
"Whoosh whoosh-!!"
A volley of arrows came flying.
Lycorina summoned Barrier Seven, which blocked a large number of arrows while simultaneously unleashing several Holy Judgments. ←＄々★
With a few loud bangs, the skull shattered, and as the firelight shone from afar, there was no sign of it reforming!
Lycorina looked behind her. As An Yi charged forward, Milu used her speed to deflect many arrows for him.
The longsword cleaved down, shattering the skeletons into pieces, but they quickly reformed.
Looking towards Layton and Karen, a large number of skeletons also appeared out of thin air in their direction.
Although Layton was standing in front, he didn't see how they appeared; they just suddenly appeared in the dark corridor.
After smashing several more skeleton soldiers, Karen suddenly noticed something.
Rather, it should have been discovered long ago.
"Their weakness is their heads! As long as the flames inside their heads are extinguished, they won't reassemble!" Karen shouted.
She initially had a headshot, but she had no weapon and could only rely on her fists.
The blue flame inside the skull of the skeleton soldier is protected by the skull, and the skull's structure is very loose, so a punch will always knock the skull away, making it very difficult to break.
After Layton smashed the skeletons several times with her shield, she discovered that only the bodies that were smashed would reassemble, while those whose bodies were smashed along with their heads could not.
This is enough to prove that their heads are their weak point.
"My skills will kill them instantly!"
Lycorina shouted, and several [Holy Judgment] spells struck the skeletons in the direction where An and Layton were.
Before them, the skeletons were nothing more than targets struck by the Holy Judgment; whether or not they hit the head, they would turn into piles of bones.
Lycorina seems to have discovered...
I am their nemesis!
After "learning" that the skeletons' weakness was their heads, An Yi swung his longsword horizontally, knocking several skeletons to the ground by their heads and shoulders.
With a sword and a kick, he shattered two skulls, kicked another skull against the wall, pressed the skulls of the surrounding skeleton soldiers onto his head and crushed them, then swung his sword backhand and cleaved several more skulls in two.
The entire process was smooth and efficient, hitting the nail on the head; it was like dealing with a skeleton soldier who had caused a ruckus.
However, before encountering a more threatening enemy, he should conserve his magic power as much as possible, clearing out the mobs without having to use his skills.
As for Lycorina, she has a long blue bar and is capricious.
After reaching level 10, the experience points gained from killing level 1 demons are minimal; you need to kill at least level 2 demons to see a significant increase in experience points.
However, Karen is only level 1, and killing these skeletons will grant her 10 experience points, just like killing slimes.
Because killing skeletons is actually no harder than killing slimes.
Unless someone has all the endurance, even a steel warrior with all the resilience could use basic human strength to rip off their skulls and extinguish the flames.
After a while, all the skeletons were killed in the corridor.
Based on experience, the total number is probably no more than two hundred, because the corridor is too narrow, so it seems like a lot.
"Karen, have you leveled up?" Lycorina kicked aside a bone and asked Karen.
Karen shook her head: "Not yet. By my count, we should have only killed about forty skeleton soldiers."
"Sorry." Layton scratched his head sheepishly, only then realizing that he had stolen Karen's experience points for leveling up.
“We’ve only just entered and we’ve already encountered so many demons; there will probably be even more later,” An Yi said.
There's nothing to apologize for. It's such a huge castle, and there are countless valuables waiting for us.
Karen nodded, not caring much: "It's okay, even if I kill you all, I probably won't get much experience points."
Let's keep going.
Through the battles, she gradually gained confidence in herself.
She originally thought it would be difficult to defeat the demons with her fists and feet, but in the battle she discovered that every attack she made could cause great damage to the demons.
With her 14 points of strength, even a skeleton soldier with a maximum resilience of only 3 can be shattered in one hit.
Moreover, from her perspective, she could clearly see the movements of each skeleton soldier, and with her 10 points of agility, she was almost immune to attacks.
This gave her immense confidence in defeating the demons!
Lycorina looked at Karen with a smile: "So, where shall we go next, Your Highness?"
Karen pondered for a moment, then said, “I think… we should go to the audience hall of the late king.”
That's where the throne is located. If these demon rulers are power-hungry, they'll likely sit on the throne and issue commands to these demons.
“That makes sense!” Layton quickly agreed with Karen, seemingly still apologetic for what had just happened.
"Alright! Let's go!"
Lycorina raised her staff and pointed it forward.
Then, realizing something was wrong, he pointed to the left, then turned around and pointed to the right. (He slipped away.)
"Where was it again?" She gave an awkward laugh. Qiu
"The castle has a complex structure, serving not only as a dwelling place but also as a defense against outsiders."
"But with me able to scout ahead, I hope we won't go astray," Karen smiled.
“Can’t we just go back the way we came and then go around to the front?” Layton asked.
Before Karen could speak, Annie said, "That's what the enemy thinks too."
So the main gate must have been sealed off during the war.
"Then why not just smash it open?" Layton asked again.
An Yi: "That's what the enemy is thinking too."
Moreover, the ancestors here faced enemies of the demon race; can you imagine how sturdy the buildings here are?
"boom!"
An Yi swung his sword against the wall, the blade slicing through the stone and sending sparks flying.
"This……"
Layton frowned, raised his shield, and slammed it against the wall.
With a loud "boom," the shield struck the stone, making a loud noise, but the wall remained completely undamaged.
"So hard!" Layton felt his hands go numb from the shock!
Is this a building that humans could create?!
He has 28 points of strength!
If that shield had hit, an ordinary house would have been destroyed long ago!
What he didn't know was that An Yi also had 27 points of strength, and with the level of the Hero's Sword, he could have cleaved an ordinary stone in two with a single strike.
Karen smiled helplessly: "Alright, let's go."
follow me. "
After saying that, she stepped on a bone fragment and slipped and fell into the pile of bones.
Chapter 110 Treasure Chest Monster
In fact, just like scenes in a game, many scenes are **indestructible**.
If this were a proper fantasy world, they could walk around the castle however they wanted, and the mere walls wouldn't be a problem for them.
But this is a world based on games, filled with a large number of world rules unique to games.
Buildings are also classified into different levels. For example, houses in villages are easily destroyed, while in towns, high walls are erected, making it difficult for low-level demons to invade.
Both the numerical value and the quantity must meet certain conditions for a building of that level to be destroyed.
If a super-large castle like this could be easily destroyed by An'i and Layton, wouldn't it be that three goblin centurions could demolish it completely?
Smashing a small wooden door is a minor matter; trying to travel by destroying scenery and demolishing walls is a long shot.
Karen walked ahead; in the unknown darkness, only she and Annie dared to lead the way, as it would be much slower for anyone else to do so.
She didn't actually know where the audience hall of the previous king was, but she just needed to walk towards the center of the castle to find it.
After all, that kind of hall occupies almost the entire first floor of the castle, and it's a place that you can find no matter where you walk as long as you go.
"Ta...ta...ta..."
"Watch out, those skeleton soldiers are back!" Karen said in a low voice.
According to her investigation, a large number of skeleton soldiers were approaching from both the front and back of the corridor.
