Friday did not let Chu Xin wait too long. He rushed over to the Lich Ruins as soon as he received the order.
About an hour later, Chu Xin waited for Friday's undead army.
During this period, no one in the basement entered the ruins space to clean up the dead bodies. Bingmeng and Atfield were seizing the time to recover.
After resting, Bingmeng and Atfield, who had suffered serious magic loss, recovered most of their magic power, and they were just waiting for a new wave of exploration to begin.
Inside the ruins space, the skeletal undead gathered at the entrance gradually dispersed because they had not found the enemy for a long time.
They are bound by the ruins space and cannot escape from the ruins space and go to the Dark Land from the entrance.
But Chu Xin still took precautions in this regard. The grass group has been guarding here. As long as there are skeletons and undead that dare to show up, they will definitely be killed as soon as possible.
The army of undead under Friday's command had been reduced by nearly half compared to when they first arrived.
The Green Goblin skeletons summoned from the Green Goblin tribe, under the leadership of the Skeleton General, were the first to return to their territory while escorting the Green Goblin tribe's loot.
Accompanying them are the undead knights who are difficult to move in the forest, as well as the zombie monks and armored zombies who move at a slower speed.
What remains now are mainly infantry legions composed of black warriors, skeleton warriors, skeleton archers and skeleton spear throwers. There are probably more than 500 left in total.
It is definitely incomparable to the overwhelming skeletal undead in the ruins space, but it is better because of its excellent quality and its combat quality is much stronger than that of the skeletal undead.
Chu Xin had no intention of clearing them all in one go. From the number of skeletons and undead shown on the plain, this was obviously not a task that could be completed in a short time.
Judging from the sun setting in the west at this time, it is definitely impossible to return to the territory tonight. No one can say how long it will take to complete the exploration of the Lich ruins.
Regarding this issue, I had anticipated it when it came out, and everything that should be explained to Galaxy has already been explained.
Even if Chu Xin is not in the territory these two days, the overall operation of the territory will continue to operate according to his ideas and will not stagnate.
The team quickly assembled and got ready.
Atfield, who was on the side, showed a strong willingness to enter this time. He said that he was unwilling to wait outside and must go in to see with his own eyes.
This is the mad lich's laboratory, a place that he has never dreamed of exploring. If he were left to guard it outside, it would be more uncomfortable than killing him.
"You're in, what about the entrance? If there's danger inside, how can we get back?" Chu Xin raised the question. He didn't have to leave Atfield outside, but the escape route must be guaranteed.
At present, the only way to open the entrance from this side is currently known inside the ruins space. After opening it, you can travel freely on both sides. But after this side is closed, how to open and return from that side is a problem.
It would be great fun if the entire exploration team was locked in the ruins space and unable to return, so Chu Xin had to ensure that someone outside could open the entrance at any time to respond.
It turned out that he was worried about this problem. Atfield breathed a sigh of relief. He patted his assistant, the skeleton leopard mage Gu Yi, and said: "This is easy to solve. The skeleton mage can open the space entrance and leave Gu Yi here. It just so happens that its strength is not suitable for exploring there.”
The opening of the space entrance only requires the energy of the undead system to be activated. With Gu Yi's current four-star strength, he is enough to do this job.
Chu Xin nodded, agreeing with Atfield's suggestion. This was better, at least he didn't have to worry about being stabbed in the back by Atfield at the critical moment.
This time, he planned to enter in person.
There is definitely a risk, but it's not too big. Chu Xin can contact Cao Tuan at any time inside and notify Gu Yi here to open the entrance.
The way back is guaranteed, but if you really can't stand it, just retreat.
Just in case, Iron Scale also went in. If there was an emergency, hiding to the ground could solve some of the problems.
The team unfolded one by one, and at the front, several rows of skeleton warriors holding swords, shields, and wearing light armor and iron helmets entered first.
For the elite troops under his command, Chu Xin generously equipped them with basic equipment. Unfortunately, the reserves of iron ore were still too small, otherwise the light armor with less coverage would be replaced with full-body armor with stronger defensive performance.
Friday led the spear skeletons and black warriors, followed closely behind the sword and shield skeletons, and the last to enter was the long-range team composed of skeleton shooters and skeleton spear throwers.
Taking a deep breath, Chu Xin led Atfield, who couldn't wait, and Bing Meng, who lay on Tie Scale's back reluctantly.
The grass ball and the magic pattern mecha were left in the basement, responsible for guarding the basement and preventing emergencies.
In addition, there are Gu Yi and a small number of skeleton warriors who are responsible for opening the entrance to the ruins space at any time.
The entire basement was covered by grass balls and buried in mounds of soil. From the outside, you could only see a small undulating mound of soil. It was difficult to notice that there was a relic of a lich hidden inside.
Although this place is very remote, there are many things that cannot be explained clearly, so precautions must be taken.
The dim underground space in front of him quickly transformed, and a gloomy low sky appeared in Chu Xin's field of vision.
As soon as he entered, Chu Xin felt the erosion of the strong aura of death, silently damaging the body's functions.
If you stay in this space for a long time, not to mention other physical problems, your life span will definitely be shortened silently.
Necromancers are short-lived for this reason, but short-lived people also have short-lived methods. They can transform themselves into undead and continue to survive in another form.
Chu Xin spread her spiritual energy and blocked out the strong aura of death. Suddenly, the unspeakable feeling of depression in her heart dissipated a lot.
Bing Meng, who was on the side, reacted much faster than Chu Xin. As soon as he came in, he wrapped himself with spiritual power, and by the way, the iron scales were also protected in it.
Atfield did not use any protection, but breathed greedily, with a look of enjoyment on his face, as if he had returned to his own home.
In fact, when the necromancer accepts the erosion of these death auras, it is also a process of gradually adapting to the transformation of his body. Although the price is that he ages and dies faster, correspondingly, transforming himself into an undead body will also be corroded along with it. It becomes a little easier to deepen.
One thing to say, the Necromancer profession, hey, is still a bit perverted.
Chu Xin looked at the front of the team. The undead team that entered first had already begun to come into contact with the skeletal undead.
Some of the skeletal undead wandering near the entrance were attracted to them as soon as they entered.
But when they encountered a well-trained skeleton army, they were chopped to the ground by the sword-shield skeletons who were ready to attack as soon as they got close.
At this time, the skeletal undead on the entire plain became restless with the appearance of the exploration team.
Endless skeletons appeared in the field of vision, and the large tracts seemed to extend to the sky.
To use a poem to describe it, it would probably be: the bones connected to the sky are infinitely white, reflecting... well, that's what it means anyway.
Facing such a large-scale enemy, the undead army seemed quite calm, maintaining their formation and quietly waiting for the wave of undead skeletons to approach.
There were chaotic running sounds on the ground, and the ground seemed to be shaking. There were countless undead skeletons, rushing towards their small exploration team like crazy.
At the forefront of the team were three layers of sword-and-shield skeletons holding round shields. They collided with these undead skeletons without fear.
The round shield struck, the dagger slashed, these skillful movements immediately stopped the incoming wave of undead skeletons.
Facing the impact of the skeletal undead, they remained firm and never took a step back.
The spear-skeleton behind raised the spear and thrust along the gap to slow down the attack of the skeletal undead.
Bone arrows and bone spears rained down like crazy, with huge force, breaking the bodies of the undead skeletons, but the overall effect was not very good.
The skeleton body has always been very resistant to long-range attacks. Unless it hits the soul fire, it is difficult to kill these skeletal undead with one blow.
Friday also discovered this, and quickly commanded the long-range team to adjust the attack method, from the original coverage shooting to a more precise burst shooting.
Their targets are the skeletal undead who are trying to get past their teammates and crawl over from above.
These undead skeletons in mid-air are the best targets.
The strength of the skeletal undead on the plain should be distributed in a ladder, with the strength getting weaker as you go outward.
Therefore, the first batch of skeletal undead that came up were not very strong, and they did not have any special abilities. Their strength was basically below three stars, and they were classified as cannon fodder.
In essence, normal human warriors can easily challenge such skeletal undead as long as they overcome their fear.
The only troublesome thing is that these undead skeletons come in all kinds of weird shapes. Although most of them are in the form of human skeletons, there are often some undead skeletons with weird attack methods mixed in.
There are all types of bone pigs covered with bone spurs, winding bone snakes, centaur skeletons running on four hooves.
The special form brought a variety of unexpected attacks, including flying bone spurs and scurrying bone snakes, but in the face of Friday's multi-layered defense front, they were all blocked.
The surging skeletal undead were scattered like the tide hitting a dam on the sea.
Chu Xin's current position is at the edge of the entire experimental space. Behind him is the spatial wall of the experimental space, so it is difficult for the skeleton undead to sneak in from behind.
The defending team only needs to defend against attacks coming from the front, and there is no need to worry about the rear.
The skeleton warriors always maintained a tight formation, like a semicircular bowl, firmly resisting the attack of the skeletal undead.
Compared to the skeletal undead who attack randomly, the skeleton warrior's attack is undoubtedly more efficient and sharper. The short knife in his hand is mostly slashed towards the soul fire of the skeletal undead or important joint points, which can basically be solved with one knife. A skeletal undead.
Instead, it was the attack of the skeletal undead. The random claws and teeth collided with the skeleton warrior's light armor, making a crisp sound. Apart from a few more scratches, there was no other achievement.
The collision between the skeleton warrior and the skeletal undead. The skeleton warrior, who is covered in light armor and has a body of bronze bones, is completely different from the skeletal undead who are still in the form of ordinary white bones in terms of defense.
But this is just the beginning. The really powerful undead skeletons on the plains have not appeared for the time being. There will definitely be stronger undead skeletons in the future. There is no guarantee that new changes will not occur.
Friday made arrangements in the middle, observing the surrounding situation, and quickly moved the injured skeleton warrior to the rear to recover.
The Black Samurai weapon in its hand has not yet been used, and the Skeleton Leopard Mage is currently mainly focused on repairing injuries. It is not worth using all his strength to deal with these cannon fodder.
On the plain, the densely packed skeletons and undead souls make one's scalp numb at a glance.
With such a large number, I don’t know when it will be possible to clean them all. Even if they don’t resist, if they stand there and let people chop them, it may be difficult to clean them until they are weak.
Chu Xin sighed and directed Tie Lin to start digging. It would be great if he could avoid the attack of these undead and enter the laboratory directly in a more peaceful way.
What he didn't expect was that there were skeletal undead underground. There were many sleeping skeletal undead underground in the plain dug by the iron scales. It was easy to touch them underground.
They are buried in the underground space and cannot escape, but when the iron scales are dug nearby, they will wake up immediately and launch attacks frantically.
It's not as easy underground as it is on the ground, it's even more difficult.
Chu Xin sighed and gave up traveling underground. The entire plain felt as if it was made of countless bones. There were countless undead buried underground, so it was not as efficient as the ground.
I wonder if these skeletons and undead underground will rise from the ground over time. If the underground part is added to it, Chu Xin feels horrible just thinking about it.
"We have to speed up our efficiency." Chu Xin glanced at Atfield and asked him to join the attack.
Atfield waved the staff in his hand, and the bones scattered on the ground spontaneously gathered into countless new undead to fight with the skeletal undead.
"Lord, in fact, you don't need to conserve your magic power. If your magic power is insufficient, you can leave the space and recover outside." Atfield said suddenly.
Chu Xin slapped his head and couldn't help but secretly exclaimed that he was so stupid.
The recovery of magic power in the ruins space is slow. What's the big deal? Just go out and recover after using it up. At most, the magic power loss will be a little bigger, so what's the problem?
There are quite a few skeletons and undead on the plain at the moment, and they certainly won't be able to be cleared away in a short time. There won't be any big problems if they go out for a while.
"Boom", Chu Xin summoned the rock and soil puppet. The huge rock and soil puppet waved his fist and easily crushed several undead skeletons.
Facing this big guy that suddenly appeared, the skeleton undead swarmed up and covered the rock and soil puppet's body in an instant.
However, the attacks of these skeletal undead cannot have much impact on the rock and soil puppets.
