The bodies of the enemies killed by Xiao Chen were lying on the ground in all directions.
"These guys seem to be able to be reused?" Glade said as he flipped open the "Spirit Gathering Book". A dark purple mist swept over the location of the corpses and took the ten light balls back into the book. A few minutes later, the fallen guards stood up again.
Glade said: "Ten people can only make five souls, one mid-level ghost warrior, four low-level ghost warriors, and the rest will be replaced with Demian and his souls."
So Xiao Chen had another team of warriors, including two high-level warriors and a high-level magician. The warriors created with the Holy Scripture of the Spirit Tower were very different from ordinary undead. Ordinary undead relied on their physical strength to fight, but these ghost warriors could use their mental power to absorb magic power to form a similar effect to fighting spirit. Ghost mages could use their mental power to control magic power like ordinary mages. This made them have almost no high requirements for the corpses they possessed.
The bodies of these warriors had just died a short while ago, and from the outside they looked no different from living people. Their movements were not stiff at all. In addition, their wounds were all on the back of their heads, so it was difficult to spot the problem at a glance in the dim dungeon.
Xiao Chen walked around the group of ghost warriors and said, "That's them. Use these people to approach the next group of guards. I think we can fool them."
So they let the ghost warriors walk in front, and they followed them at a distance. Soon, the ghost warriors encountered the second patrol team.
The members of the second patrol team obviously did not have any doubts about this familiar team that passed by. Therefore, when the high-level ghost mage Demian first cast a silent barrier and then cast a weakness curse on them, they had not yet reacted to what was happening. Then, this team of powerless warriors were slaughtered by the ghost warriors who suddenly drew their swords and attacked.
Xiao Chen looked at the silent killing ahead, and suddenly a trace of worry came to his mind. It seemed that he no longer felt any discomfort in killing enemies, extracting their souls, and then making them into ghost warriors. He felt very calm while watching these scenes. He subconsciously touched his chest, as if something very important had left him.
"Do you feel the power of the environment? No matter how strong we are inside, the world will slowly shape us into something else." Tashia said beside him, "On the bright side, you are already a strong warrior."
"It seems that you know what I'm thinking." Xiao Chen looked at her. Tasia's face had not changed at all from when they first met, but there was a hint of melancholy in her expression. She was no longer the girl who looked cold on the outside but was actually enthusiastic.
"I know." She nodded without saying anything more, but put her hand on Xiao Chen's shoulder.
"I think that change is a good thing. At least it means you have made a response. I don't care how I am different from the past. I think as long as there is a direction to move forward, that's enough." Elaina interrupted. She touched her ears and said, "When I lost my pointed ears, I realized something. It doesn't matter whether I am an elf or not. What matters is that I have the courage to move on and take a better path than yesterday."
"Okay, stop saying weird things. Look at what day it is and where the hell we are!" Glade walked over to the bodies of the ghost warriors and enemies and began to check.
"One of the ghost warriors was completely chopped to pieces, two were injured, and this one's face was chopped off, with a piece cut off from the eye socket to the nose. He can't pretend to be a living person anymore." Glade said.
He observed the enemies of the second team that were eliminated and found that two of them could be added to the team, so he "resurrected" them. He put the eight more "beautiful" ghost warriors in the front, and the three with missing arms, broken wrists, and disfigured faces followed behind.
They turned from the first floor to the ramp of the second floor and ran into the third patrol team. However, this time the leader of the other party was a good friend of a "resurrected" ghost warrior, so he immediately discovered the problem: this guy rolled his eyes and couldn't speak.
The captain immediately thought that his friend might be controlled by someone, so he immediately ordered his men to pick up their weapons and prepare for battle.
Fortunately, Xiao Chen reacted quickly and used an ice arrow to knock down his warning prop. Otherwise, the news of the emergency in the prison would have been passed upstairs.
Although the enemy team reacted this time, a team led by a high-level warrior was still no match for Xiao Chen and his team. Under the influence of Xiao Chen's Heart of Fear magic, the warriors in the enemy team became prey being chased everywhere. In the end, the ghost warriors actually took down these ten people at a lower cost than last time.
Seeing this team growing like a snowball, Tasia sighed, "No wonder a single necromancer can cause so much trouble. This ability to recruit troops endlessly is terrifying."
"Fortunately, this power is on our side." Xiao Chen said.
However, when their team was on the second floor, they finally failed to hide from the guards on the second floor. The leader of a patrol team activated the communication prop before he died. The small, stone-like magic prop. Once crushed, it would transmit a warning message. But he did not have the opportunity to tell the people above what happened below.
Xiao Chen said: "Since we have been discovered, we can no longer hide. Let's rush up with all our strength!"
After this battle, Glade had a lot more ghost warriors under his command. After his reorganization, the number of ghost warriors reached more than twenty people.
However, he also discovered that ghosts were not immune to harm. As long as they were hit in the head by fighting spirit or magic during the battle, the ghosts that had sneaked into the body would be injured by the magic in the fighting spirit. The lower the level of the ghost, the easier it was for it to dissipate after being injured.
Xiao Chen led the team upwards. Sure enough, after the warning message was passed, the guards and patrols behind began to prepare. But even if two or three teams were combined, it would be difficult for them to be a match for Xiao Chen and his team.
Every time they encountered an obstacle, Xiao Chen and several mages would first attack with magic. Xiao Chen's mental magic, Tashia's elemental magic, Elaina's negative energy magic, Glade and Demian's soul damage magic would immediately reduce the opponent's combat effectiveness and morale to the lowest level, and then the fearless ghost warriors would attack with a wound-for-wound strategy, and the enemy would often collapse.
