Chapter 298: Cemetery, Skeleton Soldiers, and Zombies

Chapter 298: Cemetery, Skeleton Soldiers, and Zombies
This is a cemetery.

There were many rotting corpses scattered in the cemetery.

There were also many coffins, placed randomly in all directions.

Some of the coffin lids were open;

Outside the cemetery, a battle is taking place.

Three pale humanoid skeletons are besieging a highly decayed zombie.

The humanoid skeleton soldiers hold bone knives in their hands and have a certain degree of coordination with each other.

The rotten zombies fought in a very domineering way. They used their bare hands and their own bodies to collide with the skeleton soldiers' bone knives again and again.

Gradually, the three skeleton soldiers fell into a disadvantage and were defeated one by one by the rotten zombies.

They had no intention of running away. Even when the situation had already become absolutely disadvantageous to them, they still fought till the last moment.

Finally, the rotten zombies completely tore the three skeleton soldiers apart and staggered away.

In the corner of the cemetery, there is an ancient sarcophagus.

The lid of the sarcophagus was covered with dust and had a lot of text written on it.

The lid was pushed open, and then a hand stretched out from inside.

Su Ming crawled out of the sarcophagus and looked at the world outside.

A strong smell of decay penetrated my nostrils.

The air was filled with an eerie, cold and damp feeling.

It made his skin all over itchy and uncomfortable.

However, I gradually got used to this feeling.

Looking at the numerous coffins and various rotting corpses in the cemetery.

Su Ming didn't feel much fluctuation in his heart.

He had seen all kinds of big scenes, and these coffins and corpses could not scare him.

He scanned the surroundings, searching for the figure of his master.

According to the hint in the horror game, there will be a necromancer to guide him during this intermission.

When learning new things, there is a huge difference in efficiency between having someone to guide you and figuring things out on your own.

Unfortunately, after looking around twice, he didn't see the figure of the necromancer.

"Could it be that this intermission growth also includes a step of finding a master?"

It's not impossible.

Anyway, we have ten years left, so there is a lot of time to come.

Su Ming left this original cemetery.

It is called a cemetery, but in fact it is just an area surrounded by some broken walls.

It's quite casual, and it doesn't even seem to have a formal name.

Beyond the cemetery is a wasteland of black soil.

Various corpses and skeletons were scattered around.

There were human corpses as well as corpses of other strange animals.

It looked like a dog's corpse, but it had two heads.

A fresh tiger corpse, with red and black hair on its body, looks a bit weird.

This place is more like a mass grave where corpses are dumped haphazardly than a cemetery.

Su Ming also tried to feel around on them to see if he could find anything valuable.

The result was nothing, nothing was found.

The meat from this rotten corpse cannot be used as food.

Otherwise, there will be food health problems.

After walking for a while, I couldn't see the end.

The area covered by this cemetery seems to be quite large.

There was a noise ahead.

Su Ming: "I wonder if the local creatures here can communicate."

If they could communicate, he could ask them about the necromancer.

In order to have a better friendly communication, he took out his own scythe of death.

Holding the sickle handle, continue forward.

Always be prepared to use physical means to assist in the development of friendly exchanges.

After climbing over a dirt slope, I saw a large plain in front of me. Hundreds of humanoid skeletons were fighting each other.

Some skeleton soldiers hold bone shields, others hold bone spears, and bone swords and axes.

At every moment, there were skeleton soldiers whose bones were chopped off by other skeleton soldiers, or they simply fell to the ground and could not get up.

Su Ming was looking down from above, observing the battle.

These skeleton soldiers are of average strength, and their only advantage is that they can continue fighting even if the bones of their hands and feet are chopped off.

Even if it's an ordinary human being, as long as he has a weapon, he will have no problem fighting alone.

If he were wearing armor, he could easily fight one against five, or even more.

But after watching for a long time, I still couldn't figure out why they were fighting here.

What are they fighting for?
Or is it a conflict between two or more skeleton forces?
However, he had no way of figuring out the camp relationships between these skeleton soldiers.

When these white skeletons were fought together, it was a complete mess.

It seemed that the battle would never end.

He didn't want to wait any longer, so he just left.

He walked towards them and greeted them: "Hello!"

The skeleton soldiers stopped fighting and focused their attention on him.

Su Ming: "Can you understand what I'm saying?"

"I came here this time to find a necromancer..."

However, his words were not finished yet.

The skeleton soldiers raised their weapons and rushed towards him.

The communication ended directly with action.

Su Ming wielded the Grim Reaper's scythe and with one sweep, he crushed the three fastest skeleton soldiers.

"Can you talk properly?"

"Even if you come together, you are no match for me."

"I'm just asking a few questions. After I leave, you can continue your fight."

However, these skeleton soldiers were not moved by Su Ming's words at all.

It seemed as if he had already regarded Su Ming as a prey that must be conquered.

All the skeleton soldiers united and cooperated with each other to launch various attacks on Su Ming.

However, the gap in strength between them is too big.

Even if they did, it would still be of no use.

Even though they know the chance of success is zero, they still keep charging forward fearlessly.

Until they were all smashed to pieces by Su Ming, from the assembled skeleton soldiers to skeleton soldier parts scattered all over the ground.

Su Ming: "You are really not afraid of death at all!"

"It seems like there is no way for them to communicate. They don't seem to have an organ called a brain."

Soon, he verified his guess.

He encountered a group of skeleton soldiers and a group of skeleton dogs fighting.

After Su Ming came out, the skeleton soldiers and skeleton dogs immediately put aside their hatred for each other.

Then humans and dogs worked together to surround and kill him.

Then, Su Ming tore it into pieces.

Not a single skeleton soldier or skeleton dog escaped during the entire process.

In addition to this, he also encountered a walking rotting corpse.

The other party did not show any hostility towards him.

Completely treated him as air.

However, there is still no way to communicate.

After walking for a long time, Su Ming finally figured out the rules of the place.

"First, skeleton-like creatures will fight when they gather together. Skeleton soldiers and skeleton animals will fight each other until one of them is completely dead."

"Secondly, skeletons have the highest priority in attacking me. Once they see me, they will abandon all activities and attack me."

"Third, the zombie creatures with flesh and blood are all lone rangers, but they will fight to the death with the skeleton creatures."

"Fourth, whether it's zombies or skeletons, they don't seem to have brains. Their actions are more like some kind of instinct."
