There's a skeleton dungeon connected to my basement.

Chapter 44, Knight's Oath
The last stick hit a skeleton crossbowman's head hard, causing its skull to fly sideways, the soul flame to be extinguished, and the body to disintegrate and turn into bones on the ground.

The skeleton crossbowman exploded the crossbow in his hand, an ordinary soldier crossbow. Xiao Yang planned to keep it for himself. Before that, the skeleton archers who were beaten by him had already exploded a lot of bows and arrows.

But he didn't quite understand how to use it. The bow and arrow was not that easy to use. In comparison, the crossbow was easier to use.

However, these two things are also no match for Xiao Yang rushing forward and swinging the justice in his hand.

In the process of madly killing skeleton warriors, Xiao Yang upgraded his heavy attack skill to level five. Level five is the limit of the heavy attack skill. The heavy attack skill no longer increases its damage by multiples, but the physical energy consumption required by Xiao Yang to use the skill is much less than at the beginning. By the way, there is also stabbing. Those skeleton spearmen will also drop stabbing skill scrolls.

However, the proportion of these spear skeletons in this skeleton army is not particularly high. In the process of clearing out the entire skeleton army, Xiao Yang only upgraded the stab attack to level three. Now the number of points of defense-immune damage that the stab attack can cause has increased to five.

The harvest is not over yet, what follows is a large pile of rotten leather armor and broken shields. It can only be said that with sufficient quantities, the drop rate of various equipment will increase.

Xiao Yang collected his own five-piece adventurer set, adventurer's wide hat, adventurer's arm guards, adventurer's boots, adventurer's linen trousers, adventurer's breastplate. The adventurer's wide hat, breastplate, and trousers were all obtained in the process of brushing skeleton warriors.

A question suddenly arises: why do these skeleton warriors drop adventurer suits?

After a brief thought, he came to a somewhat hellish answer: the adventurer died at the hands of these skeleton warriors, and the adventurer became these skeleton warriors.

Instead of equipping the adventurer's wide hat, Xiao Yang equipped the adventurer's breastplate and adventurer's linen trousers. For a moment, he finally got rid of that weird shape and showed a more capable adventurer's posture, of course, except for the head.

The Adventurer's Breastplate adds two points of defense and one point of agility, and the Adventurer's Linen Trousers add two points of agility. It's a pity that this five-piece Adventurer's set does not have a chain set effect, otherwise Xiao Yang would definitely take off the Ghost Helmet on his head and become an authentic Adventurer.

Now Xiao Yang's attributes have reached this point.

【Level: 8
Health: 200 (200)

Strength: 13 (13)

Defense: 26 (15)

Agility: 27 (20)

Remaining talent points: 3]

There are still fifty points of experience points needed for upgrading. Xiao Yang curled his lips at this level increase. The experience decay in this God Game is too outrageous. At the same time, the experience points required for each level increase are too high. If you want to upgrade quickly, this God Game only provides one way, which is to fight across the large level difference and the rank difference.

When Xiao Yang defeated the dungeon guardian, he was directly promoted three levels.

But the problem is that elite bosses in normal condition are not easy to fight, and the chance of encountering an elite boss in bad condition such as the Dungeon Guardian is almost as good as luck.

It's disturbing.

Perhaps it was because Xiao Yang upgraded too quickly. After all, it had only been less than two months since he became a player of the God Game.

After completely eliminating these skeleton warriors, Xiao Yang cleared out this small square. After a refreshing, fierce and even deadly crazy battle, Xiao Yang was finally able to spare some energy to carefully observe this small square that was full of skeleton warriors not long ago.

After clearing out these skeleton warriors, the rope bridge that they were guarding behind them, which didn't look very safe, appeared in front of Xiao Yang.

Fortunately, even the underground cracks didn't completely tear the rope bridge apart, only making it slightly more dangerous. "A little dangerous, right?"

The rope bridge connecting the two sides collapsed straight up, and a large part of the wooden steps fell off, lying horizontally in the darkness, making people swallow their saliva.

If possible, Xiao Yang didn't want to take this road, but there was no other choice. The only road left was to the opposite side, but it was not time to enter the next area yet.

This small square is not so empty. On the contrary, there are a lot of things piled up in it, bundles of arrows, a large number of bottles and jars, iron sheets for repairing armor, and even a heavy iron felt. It seems to be an outpost?

While thinking, Xiao Yang searched the square with a torch. This action was not in vain. After a careful search, Xiao Yang successfully found some useful things.

An iron treasure chest. When Xiao Yang opened it, he got a set of incendiary grenades.

[A set of flame grenades

Quality: Excellent

Effect: Can be split into three incendiary grenades.

Introduction: "Like I said, throw it out there and watch those guys scream and scream in the flames!" An arson expert responded to his own words while being burned by flames.

【Flame Grenade

Quality: Excellent

Effect: Creates a flame field, causing 10 points of continuous burning damage per second to creatures in the flame field.

Xiao Yang can use this, and he can buy some for the corpse mushrooms when the time comes. In addition to this, there is also a map engraved on the stone wall of the square and a sentence that is already a little vague.

There were several names on the crooked and crude map: Windmill Town, Blackwater River, Kingdom Inn, and a name circled in a big circle: Blackstone City.

Xiao Yang couldn't understand the map very well, but he had an impression of the two names, Windmill Town and Blackstone City. Windmill Town was the hometown of the wandering resentment, and Blackstone City. Xiao Yang also had three pieces of equipment on him that were related to Blackstone.

Obviously, the story that happened in the hidden map is inseparable from the skeleton dungeon where Xiao Yang is now.

But what exactly happened?

There is still too little information to make a suitable inference. Perhaps more information can be obtained in the deeper dungeons and the next hidden areas. Thinking of this, Xiao Yang set his sights on the already blurred words engraved next to the blurry map.

[I will bet everything I have to defend this place until you return!

Cavaliers: Harden

In the light of the lantern that dispels darkness, Xiao Yang took these words into his eyes. It seemed like an oath. He seemed to know the name of the undead knight. Although he didn't know what had happened here, the knight Harden who left this sentence did carry out the oath he had made.

He indeed remained here until his death.
