Chapter 98 Cunning Skeleton
Necromancer interface.
The sky is still gray, the lead clouds are low in pressure, and the strong wind is like a knife.
Looking up through the clouds, there is still an endless ashes, giving people an extremely depressing feeling.
Near a deserted hill, a human-shaped skeleton with only one arm and a ragged body was walking slowly forward.
There are many missing bones on the skeleton, and there are several serious cracks, especially the location of the ribs, which almost cut its body into two sections.
Every time the skeleton takes a step, his body will make a "cry" sound, as if he is about to fall apart.
But even so, the one-armed skeleton insisted on walking forward, but every time it walked a distance, it would stop for a moment, look up at the twelve blood moons in the sky for a while, and two green flames in the black eye sockets slowly flickered.
I don’t know how long I walked, the skeleton finally stepped onto a black earth slope, looked around for a while, and was about to continue in one direction.
At this moment, the soil at its feet suddenly cracked, and a white shadow jumped out, which was a white monster worm as thick as an arm, like a snake, opened its mouth full of sharp teeth and bit the ankle of the one-armed skeleton.
The green fire in the eyes of the one-armed skull flashed slightly, but he paused and still bit his ankle with the monster insect.
The monster insect's white and fat body twisted wildly, and struggled to bite, making a sour crunch, as if it wanted to bite the bones of the skeleton off and swallow them.
But the next moment, the one-armed skeleton suddenly bent, waved his one-armed skeleton and crossed a shadow, grabbing the back half of the white monster's body at an unimaginable speed.
A "hiss" sound!
The one-armed skeleton suddenly pulled, and the white monster had no time to let go of the mouth. The body had been torn into two pieces, and the other end was still hanging on the skeleton's ankle.
This series of movements was as fast as lightning, making it hard to imagine that it was made by a skeleton that was about to fall apart!
The previous unavoidable actions seemed to be a trap set on purpose!
The one-armed skeleton opened his mouth and sucked it gently.
A ball of green light the size of beans flew out from the corpse of the white monster, and the skeleton opened and swallowed it.
The green flames in the eyes of the one-armed skull flashed slightly, slightly stronger, and a faint black mist appeared on the body.
Where the black fog touched, some cracks on a rib on its body began to become smaller.
The black fog became less and less dimmed until it disappeared.
After a few times, the skeleton's eyes flashed, he continued to walk forward at the slow speed before, as if the previous scene had not happened at all.
...
Shi Mu left Uncle Ju’s residence and soon returned to his own stone house.
Close the door, Shi Mu sat down, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
The experiment he accompanied Uncle Ju to experience the wonders of the soul master world, and judging from this attempt, it is not small that he will become a soul master.
However, the soul master's expenses seem to be more amazing than other types of warlocks, and even at the speed of his current money, it seems that he can't stand it.
Shi Mu was silent for a moment, took out the thin book from his arms, and carefully looked through it from beginning to end.
Then he found paper and pen and calculated carefully.
As a result, the rough figures made him shocked!
To arrange this summoning array, it will cost at least 400,000 taels of silver, and it is not considered a mistake in the arrangement.
Shi Mu smiled bitterly and put away the book.
The batch of talismans from Zunling Pavilion have been handed over a few days ago, and another sum of silver has been recorded. Now his silver is only about 300,000 taels, and there is still a gap of at least 100,000 taels.
In addition, his magic practice now requires silver support for his celestial phenomena, and it is impossible for him to stop practicing for the sake of summoning.
Shi Mu sighed. It seemed that he would not have thought of summoning the skeleton in recent times.
After pondering for a moment, he took out the bottle of the venom of the golden lizard.
Since you can't summon the skeleton for the time being, it's better to deal with the matter of the Meteorite Black Sword first.
With the venom of the Golden Lizard, it has become possible to promote this black knife into a magic weapon, but he cannot do this alone, so he needs Zhao Ping's help.
With his current identity as a talisman master, I believe Zhao Ping will not refuse, but he just needs to consider what kind of talisman array to engrave on the black knife.
Shi Mu thought so, took out the jade slips of the spiritual talisman and treasure scriptures, and carefully looked through the various talisman arrays above.
...
Three days later, Zhao's Blacksmith Shop.
"Haha, Junior Brother Shi is really amazing. In just a few days, he got so much venom from the Golden Lizard. The Golden Lizard is Master Ju's treasure. We didn't know how much effort it took to get a little venom. But you easily got such a large bottle. I admire you!" In a living room in the blacksmith shop, Zhao Ping looked at the porcelain bottle in his hand carefully and said in admiration.
"I just happened to help Uncle Ju a few days ago, so I got these things. With this bottle of venom, you can try to promote this knife to a talisman. I have to ask Senior Brother Zhao for help." Shi Mu picked up a teacup, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile.
"Of course there is no problem with this. Since this meteorite iron knife was made by myself, I naturally want to make it into a magic weapon with my own hands." Zhao Ping nodded without hesitation and agreed.
When Shi Mu came this time, he had brought over a large number of talismans he had requested before.
Such a large number of talismans can not be completed in a month if they are handed over to other talisman masters, but Shi Mu only took a few days.
This made Zhao Ping's intention to win over Shi Mu a little stronger.
"It is better to choose a day than a day. Let's start immediately. Junior brother will follow me." Zhao Ping stood up and walked inside.
The two of them soon came to a stone house, which was a fire room of the blacksmith shop. It was quite large, about twenty feet long, and more than a dozen stoves were placed in sequence. Each stove was burning with raging fire, and the entire stone house emitted a hot high temperature.
At this moment, several big men with red spirits in the stone house were forging weapons, and the sound of "ping Ping Pong" was endless.
When these big men saw Zhao Ping and Shi Mu come in, they nodded and said hello.
Zhao Ping ignored these people and took Shi Mu to the innermost part of the stone house, a closed stone room.
"This is a fire room I use for myself, which is better than those outside." Zhao Ping said, pushing the door open.
Shi Mu followed in and suddenly felt a wave of hot air coming towards him, and the door of the fire room behind him was closed again by Zhao Ping.
This stone chamber is not large in size and is built with a black stone of invisible material. There is also a stove in it, but it is much smaller than the one outside.
However, the flames emerging from the stove showed a slight pure white color, and the temperature emitted was much higher than that outside, and even the air above the stove had faint ripples.
There is nothing else in the stone chamber except the stove and a casting table.
