Chapter 299: The dense fog gradually rising (fifth update)

What the hell is ahead.

Kant didn't know, but the appearance of the undead skeleton obviously shattered some thoughts in his heart.

The reality is undoubtedly cruel.

Deep in the Nalun Desert, there is definitely a problem!

The problem is not small.

Even undead skeletons have appeared, and no one knows if there will be more terrifying undead creatures.

For example, in the temple of the karst cave dungeon, the divine lich that claims to be the Pope, even the mages who have been tested in the battlefield and come from the mage tower of the Ernfas Empire, are afraid of the existence of the divine lich. !

"If it does appear, it will be troublesome."

Kant couldn't help muttering to himself.

The bone fragments all over the ground made him frown, but he ordered in a deep voice, "Go ahead."

The knights looked at each other, restrained their extraordinary arrogance, each returned to normal, clustered around Kant, and rode forward slowly, but there was a serious look on their brows.

No matter what you encounter, such an inhuman enemy is always a little shocking.

It's just that they are still fearless.

The dead are resurrected, and under their horseshoes and long swords they are still lambs to be slaughtered.

Even if they were undead, so what, they were just a pile of useless broken bones. These knights still had considerable confidence in their own military power. After all, they had completely mastered the supernatural power, and they believed that they were the strongest!

These skeletons, which even a farmer can knock down a few with a long-handled sickle, are not the slightest threat at all!

Even just getting close can be fatal.

The positive energy burst out from the royal knights is almost the natural enemy of these undead.

Not to mention that even without the use of extraordinary power, even relying solely on physical fitness and armor defense is enough to sweep away this group of undead skeletons without any weapons.

The combat power of the two sides is not at the same level.

The gap between heaven and earth!

Go deeper.

The temperature dropped sharply under the starry sky, and the moonlight was chilling.

Kant wrapped himself in a leather jacket, but he still felt chills around his body, which made him rein in the reins and slow down the horse that was spraying white mist from his crotch.

The war horse can move, and the whole body is hot.

But Kant, who was riding on his back, was undoubtedly suffering from the cold.

What's more, when he turned his head and looked around, there was a white mist in the distance, Kant couldn't help lowering his head and said: "It's foggy."

"Yes, it's foggy."

The mage apprentices also nodded.

They shivered and curled up on the horses, but they still held their staffs tightly in their hands. They reminded Kant in a deep voice: "There is actually fog around us, and there is frost on the ground."

Kant looked down and squinted slightly: "Yes."

as expected.

Just on the sand layer on the ground, slight white marks are spreading.

If you look carefully, it is not just frost, which connects the surrounding white mist. Although there is no wind, it is very cold.

Deep to the point of hating the living!

"The breath of negative energy is very strong."

Master Apprentice Reminder.

"Yeah." Kant nodded.

Although the surrounding white mist was very faint at the beginning, unable to cover even the soft moonlight, as they went deeper into the Nalun Desert, it became thicker and thicker unconsciously, and it was even visible from a hundred meters away. Not real.

Occasionally there will be a "cracking" sound of bones around.

It seems that there are undead skeletons walking.

The sand layer on the ground has been frosted, and even a slight ice surface has appeared.

The horseshoe slammed into the sand layer, leaving behind no splashing pits, but neat footprints, and the sound changed from a simple "pop" sound to a roar that was no different from the usual ones.

"The situation is not right."

Kant pondered.

What he was referring to was not the surrounding white mist and frost, nor those undead skeletons, but the environment.

According to the description of the captives of the Greymane Kingdom Expeditionary Army, the deeper they went into the Nalun Desert, the colder they would feel even at night, especially near the Devil's Field, it was almost as hot as daytime.

That's why I dare not walk there, even if I wear sunshade items, I will be dehydrated in the sun, until I faint from heat stroke and become a pile of useless mummy!

But it's not right now.

Kant thought that he should be close to the devil's land.

But it was still so cold at night, which really made him feel strange and trembling.

He didn't notice it before, after all, he didn't think about it for a while, and now he thought that he was obviously close to the devil's zone, even the sunlight in the daytime became more blazing, but the night was colder.

There was even frost and ice on the ground.

"It's really not right!"

Kant muttered to himself.

Looking up, the surrounding fog has become very thick.

The white mist is like a pale skeleton, with shadows inside, and there is a faint "click" sound.

Vision is limited to a range of 100 meters, but fortunately, the moonlight in the sky does not seem to be blocked much, but still splashes in the thick fog, illuminating Kant and the others.

The mage apprentices have an explanation for this.

"These dense fog and frost are the product of the accumulation of negative energy."

The mage apprentice said: "Especially at night, the water element at the bottom of the sand layer rises and mixes with negative energy, which can easily form these thick fog and frost. If it is in a swamp area, the dense fog and frost will be more severe. I guess At that time, even the moonlight containing negative energy will not be able to shine down."

"Death canopy?" Kant instantly rang out the famous group boosting state and weather changing type of the undead clan in literary works, which can be called signature-level spells.

"Well... something similar."

The mage apprentice hesitated.

They come from the World of Warwind, and they also have undead tribes, and they are also the sworn enemies of the Enfarth Empire.

However, looking at the dense fog around them, the mage apprentices hesitated: "These dense fogs are not like the resentment of the creatures slaughtered with pure negative energy, and the death sky created by the mixture, but similar to the release of evil cult warlocks or magic eyes." The super-large poisonous cloud technique, but it is not poisonous, it just feels cold."

This really made the mage apprentices puzzled.

Kant was equally puzzled.

Shaking his head, his eyes were fixed on the front, and groups of black shadows appeared in the thick fog.

"Ready to fight!"

The captain of the knights issued a warning.

The groups of figures in front of them have stopped moving forward, and they turned their heads slowly to look over. Even in the thick fog, you can see the faint blue soul fire burning happily, with the hatred of the living, watching To Kant them.

It seems that in this dense fog, the perception and movements of these undead skeletons have become stronger!

"kill!"

Kant ordered in a deep voice.

With the sound of horseshoes, the frosty sand layer was crushed directly.

The royal knights burst out with golden light, and the power of the king was revealed into arrogance, directly sweeping the skeletons and undead in front of them, trampling on the bone fragments with horseshoes, and reimbursed the team of hundreds of undead skeletons with a single charge.

Even if there were a few fragments left, they were still approaching Kant, and they were chopped into pieces by the lion knight.

"They're so weak."

The Sarion Lion Knights looked relaxed.

In this mist of pure negative energy, they who also possess the power of bloody negative energy feel that it is not bad, even if they do not burst out with extraordinary power, they feel that they have also been strengthened.

Negative energy does not mean evil.

The most typical one is moonlight, which is the most direct embodiment of negative energy.

Positive energy also does not represent justice, and the scorching sun can also cause heatstroke and death.

Just like the Holy See of the Silver Plate Kingdom.

They don't think that the positive energy of the sun and the negative energy of the moon represent justice and death. Instead, they collectively refer to the beneficial part of the sun and the beneficial part of the moonlight as Holy Light!

This is true justice.

But now is not the time to delve into this.

"keep going!"

Kant hesitated a little, but still made up his mind.

The system task must be completed, and at the same time, he wants to take a good look at what happened here!

The knights move forward.

The mage apprentices also maximized their perception.

As it got deeper, the temperature dropped sharply, dense fog and frost filled the air, and even the sand layer had frozen, just like the ice surface. Only by letting the knights radiate a little bit of extraordinary power could the chill be dispelled.

On Kant's waist, the King's Sword also released golden light.

Covering him inside, dispelled the chill brought by the negative energy from the outside world, making him feel warm in front of him.

The mage apprentices also rode on the horses, using the power of the elements they mastered to spread around their bodies, especially with the help of the positive energy emanating from the surrounding knights and Kant, to keep themselves and the horses under their crotches energetic and warm, It will not be worn down by a long journey.

But even so, a little frost appeared between everyone's exposed eyebrows.

The horse under the crotch sprayed out white mist.

The whole environment is so cruel that it is like falling into a place of ice.

"Boom—"

The horseshoe struck heavily on the condensed sand layer, only denting a small mark of two centimeters.

Instead of resting at midnight, they continued forward against the cold, marching by force with the help of extraordinary strength.

Fortunately, after resting all day during the day, everyone recovered their physical strength. Otherwise, even with extraordinary strength, forced marching would make the spirit more exhausted and exhausted, so the forced march would not be worth the candle.

During the successive forced marches, they encountered two teams of undead skeletons.

It is still hundreds of skeletons.

Wearing a tattered light yellow hood and robe with a little ancient pattern.

It looks like a pilgrimage, walking towards the depths of the Nalun Desert, it seems that you will never get tired, and it is true, the undead are not tired, as long as the bones and the body of the dead are not worn out, they will move like a perpetual motion machine.

But soon, they also rest.

When the knights saw a stream of undead skeletons, they destroyed one.

Even if they want to bypass them, these skeletons will launch a slow and ridiculous attack on them with hatred for the living. It is better to strike first.

All the way forward, even at night did not rest.

to the depths of the desert.

And just before dawn, Kant also saw an unusual scene ahead.

The dense fog was dispelled and replaced by a slightly gray-black mist.

Thick black clouds appeared in the sky, covering the sky and the sun.

A slight cold wind is still blowing.

Faintly, there was a tragic cry in my ears, like a begging for mercy before death, and a curse against everything!
