212 The Mummy (1/2)
Zhao Xu’s heart started to race when he saw this.
But he did not immediately turn his head to look back.
The moment he landed, he had already smelled the stench of the undead creatures that gathered in the arena. at this moment, he smelled a pungent herbal fragrance.
Immediately after, he heard a low groan that seemed to have come from thousands of years ago. It was unspeakably shocking.
But Zhao Xu was more or less relieved. He could already guess what the undead creature behind him was.
undead creatures like skeleton warriors didn’t have intelligence, so they naturally couldn’t tell if zhao xu was real or fake.
however, the higher level undead creatures had intelligence!
But at this moment, Zhao Xu was very confident in his own spells.
Even though Zhao Xu’s appearance didn’t change, undead creatures with intelligence wouldn’t immediately be able to tell that he was actually alive. At most, they would just suspect him.
That was why Zhao Xu didn’t panic. He just ran away or turned around and took out his Eternal Magic wand to fight back.
that would only cause him to be surrounded by the sea of skeletons.
It even triggered the second and third magic attack.
Just like that, Zhao Xu imitated the Zombie’s footsteps and kept shaking his head as he slowly walked away.
during this period of time, he intentionally adjusted the direction he was heading in and made a slight curve. in the end, zhao xu barely managed to scan the area from the corner of his eyes. he wanted to confirm whether the undead creatures behind him were as he had guessed from the start.
But Zhao Xu’s movements were very careful, as if he was doing it on purpose. Even though he was already quite a distance away, he didn’t directly look in the direction behind him.
it was as if he was worried about something.
[ adventurer zhongxia, you’ve entered the arena for more than three rounds. You’ve gained the trueshot effect. ]
Zhao Xu almost made a sound when he heard this. It was a delayed spell of truth, which meant that all the undead creatures present could see through invisibility.
Fortunately, his ‘undying shroud’ was an undead spell and not just an illusion.
He was really too sinister!
In the end, Zhao Xu managed to catch a glimpse of her clothes from the corner of his eyes. He immediately shuddered and closed his eyes.
Bandages!
as he had expected, it was a mummy.
a level 8 demonic corpse was created from the corpse of a murderer or villain who had died without atonement.
As for Challenge Level 5 mummies, they were commonly seen in the desert God system, as they were revived from embalmed corpses. They were generally good at guarding tombs.
ever since zhao xu had gotten his hands on those mysterious notebooks and found out that they had come from a mysterious tomb, he had done some research on the monsters that usually guarded the tomb.
one of the types that were mentioned was mummies. zhao xu didn’t even need to go through any knowledge checks and he already knew everything about them.
The mummies ‘combat level was average. A team of four level 5 players could be considered to have enough combat power to challenge a mummy.
Zhao Xu didn’t dare to look at The Mummy directly. It was just like the ghost, and just looking at it would cause him to be attacked.
the mummies themselves had an effect of spiritual qi of fear called ‘despair’. If he had read the whole thing, he would have had to do a level 16 willpower immunity test. If he failed, he would be paralyzed for one to four rounds because of fear.
Undead creatures were immune to the effects of paralysis, fear, disease, and death.
otherwise, the skeleton army would have been the first to fall to the mummy.
Therefore, once he fell into a state of paralysis, The Mummy might realize that he was actually a living creature and attack him.
Even though Zhao Xu was wearing the starry cloak and wasn’t afraid of these normal attacks, he had to consider the fact that The mummy’s attacks carried a supernatural disease called ” carrion “.
Once infected, Constitution and charm would receive 1-6 points of damage. it was also a type of continuous damage that would last until his vitality hit zero and his body turned into dust.
one of zhao xu’s classmates was unfortunately infected with the carrion disease, and this disease was a very powerful curse. without a high enough level as a spellcaster, even a 3-circle divine spell like remove disease might not be effective.
So even if there was a priest in the team at that time, his classmate still couldn’t make it to the high-level priest of the temple in the big town.
That was why Zhao Xu had only dared to turn around and look back when he had been feeling so guilty just now and had put a safe enough distance between himself and the spiritual energy of despair and fear.
In this day and age, no one could tell if the undead creatures had magical weapons, so he didn’t dare to bet on his Star Cloak.
After he left The mummy’s area of effect, Zhao Xu started to carefully observe his surroundings.
in his line of sight, most of them were trash skeleton warriors that could be cut down with a single slash.
This kind of enemy was once considered powerful to him when he was Level 1, but now he could basically kill as many as he could with a fireball. It was not an exaggeration to say that he cleared the field.
However, The mummy’s appearance had also warned him that the negative energy field might not be as simple as he thought.
who knew where the bones under his feet came from?
This was especially so after Zhao Xu landed on the ground and was immediately hit in the face by a set of five damage spells, which gave him a huge shock.
The five damage spells corresponded to the five healing spells, from Level 1 to Level 4, and then to Level 6.
The total damage from this set of attacks was definitely more than 200HP. Even nine Zhao Xus combined wouldn’t be enough to kill him.
fortunately, he had used the immortal curtain, and all the negative energy damage was considered to be healing him, so he escaped.
at this moment, zhao xu became alert. the stone tablet wasn’t lying, but it didn’t tell him everything either.
Moreover, he had just made a mistake!
He took advantage of his feather drop skill to perform a leap of faith on the spot.
however, he didn’t expect that the vertical distance was already six meters. with the horizontal distance of one or two meters, he was more than seven meters away from the high platform that he had just fallen from.
Otherwise, he could have used lesser Swift burst and teleportation boots to return to the platform.
this way, he might only take damage from the first two spells.
zhao xu also warned himself that he had to do things in the most honest way possible and think about things from the safest angle.
Zhao Xu mimicked the Zombie’s footsteps and slowly walked to the center of the field.
he didn’t know if there were any undead creatures still watching him.
after zhao xu walked to the center of the room, he squatted down a little and took out a forked branch. then, he started casting the spell that he had been aiming for this entire time-level 2 spell, item positioning.
this spell could be used to search for a specific item in the area that he had seen with his own eyes.
But Zhao Xu had never seen it before, so he could only take a step back and use this spell to search for a certain type of item.
Generally speaking, the second effect was not very useful, because once the nearest item of the same category was found, the spell effect would end.
However, there would only be one key to the teleportation portal under these skeletons, so he was not worried about that.
in the end, after he finished casting the spell, an invisible field started spreading out and enveloping the entire area.
spells were divided into close-range, mid-range, and long-range. the basic format was a fixed distance, and then it would increase as the caster’s level increased.
The item positioning spell’s range was long, and the fixed distance was 120 meters.
Then, every time he increased his spellcasting level by 12 meters, his level as a level 6 spellcaster would increase to 72 meters.
this also meant that a large space with a radius of almost 200 meters, which was the size of four football fields put together, was within zhao xu’s range of detection. it basically covered the entire field of corpses below.
Zhao Xu’s eyes immediately lit up as he received more and more information.
His gaze fell on a direction in front of him on the left.
zhao xu was more than 100 meters away, but when he saw what was happening, he almost wanted to rub his eyes.
However, no matter how unbelievable it was, he was shocked to find that there were more than 20 mummies in the area.
He had clearly not seen this from the high platform at the beginning.
An illusion!
zhao xu immediately realized what had happened.
at the start, even what he saw might not be true. it was a pity that some undead creatures were very good at hiding, and there were too many skeletons walking around on the field that blocked his vision, so zhao xu couldn’t really see what other threats there were.
At this moment, Zhao Xu was also thinking about how he could use these 20 mummies to get the teleport portal key that was hidden under the skeletons on the ground.
Zhao Xu’s Eternal Magic wand, which was equipped with the fireball spell, could deal 5d6 damage (5-30HP), so he had expected it to be around 18HP.
Because of the bandages, mummies were ” susceptible to fire damage “, and their damage would increase by 50% to 27HP.
However, compared to the enemy’s average HP of 55HP, he could theoretically kill them all with two fireballs, and there would definitely be some left on the scene.
The unluckiest thing was that all of them had a sliver of health left, and then they turned around and attacked him.
The other option was to take the risk and walk over, pick up the items, and run. however, if the undead creatures were watching him, he would be completely exposed.
if he was exposed as soon as he walked into the mummies ‘encirclement, he would be surrounded and killed.
But if Zhao Xu got the key and got close to the platform and exposed himself, it wouldn’t be as dangerous. in any case, he could finish the last six meters with the secondary rapid explosion.
so when he saw this, zhao xu couldn’t help but start thinking about how he was going to safely and smoothly get his hands on that teleportation key.
