Bleach Stronger by AFK Chapter 231: Skeletons
Chapter 232 Bones
There are more than a dozen star beasts patrolling and guarding outside the temple, but there is no defense inside. This situation is abnormal no matter how you think about it.
So when Lin Lichuan stepped onto the stairs, he was prepared to be attacked, so when the attack came unexpectedly, he could react so quickly.
The identities of the attacker and the attacked were reversed in the blink of an eye. After using the flash flower to move behind the black shadow, Lin Lichuan decisively thrust out a will-o'-the-wisp, and the blade of the sword shone with cold light tore through the air like a sharp arrow. Straight towards the black shadow.
The shadow reacted very quickly. After the attack failed, he immediately swung back with his backhand.
As soon as I logged in, I heard a crisp metallic sound, and a spark flashed instantly, illuminating the black shadow's face at close range.
But it was a ferocious and ugly face covered with fine scales, like a combination of a lizard and a human, and a sharp claw with a cold sheen.
The two sides were separated at the first touch, and at the same time they retreated to distance themselves.
Taking this opportunity, Lin Lichuan took a closer look and quickly saw the figure and face of the black figure clearly through the dim light around him.
"Star beast?"
A flash of surprise flashed in Lin Lichuan's eyes, but then he looked suspicious again.
The monster in front of me is still somewhat different from the star beasts outside. The body is leaner and the muscle curves are smooth and obvious. Although it still has the appearance of a monster, it is more similar to humans than any star beast encountered before. .
And the strength is much stronger.
In the encounter just now, Lin Lichuan roughly judged the strength of this star beast, which was at least level 22, and easily blocked his sword skills with his sharp claws.
"It seems that kendo needs to be upgraded to a lower level."
Lin Lichuan's eyes flashed. He had not upgraded for a long time since his swordsmanship was upgraded to Level 5, so that his swordsmanship had gradually failed to keep up with his own strength. The fight just now was the best proof.
The thought passed away in a flash, and Lin Lichuan quickly returned his mind to the battle in front of him.
After pulling away, the weird star beast leaned forward slightly, with its knees slightly bent, and its sharp claws stretched out, looking ready to pounce again at any time. Its cold eyes were He stared at him without blinking, his eyes full of violence.
Seeing this, Lin Lichuan simply used Senbonzakura's Swastika. In an instant, countless cherry blossoms poured forward like waves, and like an unstoppable torrent, they suddenly swept towards the star beast.
In the dark room, the cherry blossoms filled the sky with a faint light, becoming more and more beautiful and intoxicating. However, with beast-like intuition, Star Beast was keenly aware of the danger contained in these cherry blossoms, and rushed back without hesitation. He retreated and at the same time used his claws to split the petals in front of him.
In an instant, bright sparks flashed one after another, tearing apart the darkness.
No matter how fast and agile the star beast is, it cannot compare to the millions of cherry blossoms. It was not long before it was caught up by the cherry blossoms. Countless dazzling sparks burst out from the dark scales on its body, and its body was involuntarily stagnant for a moment.
Taking this opportunity, Lin Lichuan had already raised his palm.
"Hang Jing, Senbonzakura Kage Yan!"
Countless cherry blossoms surged up, instantly surrounding the star beast airtightly, forming a huge ball of petals. Following closely behind, Lin Lichuan's palms suddenly closed together, and the ball suddenly shrank inward. The dense sound of sharp blades entering flesh suddenly erupted, and a shrill wail resounded throughout the entire space.
As one of the three strongest moves of Senbonzakura's swastika, the power of the sword is self-evident. Even if a level 23 knight takes one hit, he will still be seriously injured, let alone a level 22 knight. The star beast.
When the cherry blossoms dispersed, the star beast inside was covered with bruises, with countless fine wounds all over its body, and blood flowed down like it was free, and it looked extremely miserable.
Lin Lichuan took advantage of the victory to pursue it, and dealt the final blow quickly, killing it quickly.
After taking out the meteorite crystal from the corpse and absorbing it and converting it into 211 crystal, he had time to look at his surroundings.
The place he is currently in is a spacious room. It is naturally incomparable with the dome space on the first floor, but the area is visually over one thousand square meters. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a small square.
The floor, walls and ceiling are still made of an unknown metal material, which is bright silver in color and looks like it is made up of metal squares the size of a washbasin. There are also many precision instruments that have never been seen before hanging on the walls. Very high-tech.
The wall deep in the room facing the stairs is inlaid with a huge device. Judging from the dense electronic screens, buttons and instruments on it, it is probably a console-like device.
"Could this be a central control room or something like that?"
Lin Lichuan looked around at the situation. The more he looked, the more he felt that his guess was most likely right.
I have watched dozens if not hundreds of science fiction movies in my last life. I have seen similar scenes countless times. The layout of the room in front of me is very similar to those of high-tech control rooms.
Confirming that there was no other living thing in the room except the dead star beast, Lin Lichuan relaxed a little, calmed down, and turned his eyes to a chair in front of the console with his back to him. , the handles on both sides of the chair each revealed a touch of white. When I looked closer, I realized that the white touch was actually a skeletal hand.
Lin Lichuan walked around to the front of the chair, his eyes slightly focused.
A complete skeleton sat motionless on a chair, with a stiff posture, its empty eye sockets facing an electronic screen on the console, and its hands and five fingers tightly grasping the handle of the chair, as if it was right before death. I experienced something extremely shocking and unbelievable.
But this was not the thing that surprised Lin Lichuan the most. His eyes passed over the skeleton's body and finally stopped at the two white sharp corners on its forehead.
Every other aspect of the skeleton in front of me is exactly the same as that of a human being, except for the sharp horn on its forehead.
In addition, under the dim light, the bones all over the body exude a fluorescent white luster, giving it an unspeakable charm.
"What does this skeleton have to do with the star beast?"
Lin Lichuan had a look of confusion on his face. After hesitating for a moment, he stretched out his hand and touched the bones lightly. After confirming that there was nothing wrong, he released the spiritual pressure covering his palm.
Immediately there was a cold and moist feeling on my fingertips, a bit like the feeling of stroking crystal.
However, other than that, nothing else was discovered.
After a while, Lin Lichuan gave up observing the bones. As soon as he pulled away, he immediately noticed the flashing exclamation mark in the lower right corner of his eye.
"Meteorite?"
Lin Lichuan was stunned for a moment, then patted his head.
Everything he saw after entering the temple was beyond his imagination, so much so that he forgot his original purpose.
The meteorite crystal from the star beast's corpse had been taken out and absorbed. The prompts in the field of vision could not be related to him. Lin Lichuan immediately clicked on the exclamation mark and found that the meteorite crystal was actually located within about two meters of him.
He looked around quickly, and after a moment, his eyes fell on the console.
......
Just when Lin Lichuan discovered the meteorite, in a ruins hundreds of kilometers away from the distortion area, a wall leaning on the sand suddenly exploded with a bang and hit it more than ten meters away. On the ground, a burst of sand flew up.
"Phew! Finally got in!"
Where the wall used to be, a two-meter-wide crack ran across the ground. It was dark and deep inside, and it was impossible to see the bottom at a glance. However, at this time, people crawled out one after another. Before long, there were ten more people around the crack. Come someone.
The man who just kicked the broken wall was standing in front, looking around, and couldn't help but muttered: "This place is really desolate."
"After all, it is a relic left over thousands of years ago. Is it possible that you can still count on the green mountains and green waters inside?" A strong man next to him answered.
"That's not necessarily true. I've read in some ancient books that the environment in the star disaster ruins has its own unique features. A very few ruins even retain their appearance from thousands of years ago." Gu Xingsong grinned, Finally, he smiled at a middle-aged man in his forties and asked, "Teacher Lu, do you think so?"
"Indeed." Lu Mengzheng smiled slightly, "But Mr. Zhou is right. The surrounding stone walls have traces of weathering and erosion over the years and have long been worn out. From this point of view, this star disaster relic is obviously It does not belong to the well-preserved ruins mentioned by Mr. Gu."
Gu Xingsong smiled and nodded when he heard this, but secretly cursed the old fox in his heart.
"Okay, stop chatting and get down to business first."
At this time, another older man with a vicissitudes of life suddenly interrupted the conversation between the three of them, and casually looked at the man next to him who was holding a compass and examining it carefully.
"Did you find it?"
The old man obviously had a very high status in the team. As soon as he asked the question, the man holding the compass immediately pointed to the distance and respectfully replied: "Lord Liu Shuo, it's in that direction."
Hearing this, the old man named Liu Shuo nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "Without further delay, let's set off immediately."
Everyone had no objections. They nodded after hearing the words and walked in the direction pointed by the compass.
This move ~IndoMTL.com~ was immediately obvious.
The twelve people were not far apart from each other. They seemed to be moving in a group, but they were faintly divided into two sides. On one side were the six people headed by Gu Xingsong and Liu Shuo, and on the other side were the six people headed by Zhou Hongzhang and Lu Mengzheng. They looked after each other. But it also implies a hint of defensiveness.
Except for the initial conversation, there was no more conversation between the team, and time gradually passed in silence.
After about two hours, the man holding the compass in front of the team suddenly exclaimed: "Found it!"
There was a hint of surprise in the voice.
Hearing the sound, Gu Xingsong and others perked up and looked in the direction the man was pointing. Sure enough, they saw an endless twisted world in the distance, completely separating the two worlds inside and outside. It was mind-blowing. Shocking.
After being stunned for a moment, everyone came to their senses, and their faces showed a look of ecstasy.
Now that the Distorted Veil has been found, the temple containing the treasure is not far away!
