175: Sweep through the ruins! God-level Bone Demon General!

【 Congratulations on successfully killing the Soul Spirit Tree! 】

【 Reward: 1000 Mist Points! 】

【 Reward: 1000 Experience Points! 】

...

Su Lie looked at the prompt before him, blinked, and dismissed it.

He immediately issued an order to the Exploration Team and the Chess Piece Squad: "Dig up the tree!"

Although the Soul Spirit Tree was dead, even if the tree was dead, its body and roots remained.

It had to be dug out.

Both the Exploration Team and the Chess Piece Squad had learned the Earth Control Technique, which they could use to dig out the Soul Spirit Tree.

Rumble!

Large amounts of soil were churned up from where the Soul Spirit Tree had been rooted.

Vigorous, ancient roots were pushed out by the soil.

In just over ten minutes.

The Soul Spirit Tree's broken hundred-meter trunk and numerous branches crashed crookedly to the side as the roots were turned up.

Rumble! Another loud roar sounded.

Su Lie raised his hand and grabbed, storing the main trunk of the Soul Spirit Tree into his ruyi pouch, then, with the cooperation of other Little Skeletons, collected all the branches as well.

No. 8 walked up to Su Lie, carrying a god-tier basic resource treasure chest.

This was the benefit brought by Su Lie's Talent for basic resource treasure chest drops.

After cleaning up the Soul Spirit Tree.

Su Lie led the Little Skeletons toward the depths of the city ruins.

In the area ten kilometers away, there was still a strong and unusually powerful odor.

It was the smell of rotting corpses.

Su Lie and the Little Skeletons entered an invisible state, moving quickly through the ruins.

The Little Skeletons were organized into squads of five, rapidly responsible for exploring different areas.

Because this area had been occupied by the Soul Spirit Tree, a large number of wandering souls had already perished, and there were no monsters left within a 10-kilometer radius.

The main purpose of the Little Skeletons was to collect resources.

One hour later.

Su Lie arrived at the target location with the Little Skeletons.

A group of level 20 giant zombies had gathered here.

They were generally 5 meters tall, about 2 meters wide, and covered in thick cuticles, looking like monsters wearing armor made of fingernails.

To Su Lie's disappointment, there was no powerful BOSS here!

Su Lie did not reveal himself; he took the Little Skeletons and, with the power of the Invisibility Cloak, silently arrived at the building nearby.

After finding the optimal shooting angle.

Su Lie raised his Mist Pistol.

The Little Skeletons of the Exploration Team were already guarding Su Lie according to the plan, while the Little Skeletons of the Black Tortoise Army waited to the side.

No. 8's Chess Piece Squad was standing around, observing other directions.

Bang! Bang!

Accompanied by a burst of intense gunfire.

Su Lie revealed himself from his invisible state.

This time, he fired Soul Dissolving Bullets.

After the bullet hit the giant zombie, it instantly made a judgment.

If the zombie's Spirit value was lower than Su Lie's Spirit attribute, the zombie's soul would be instantly melted.

The shot zombie first let out a painful roar, then completely lost all movement and fell down stiffly.

Very few zombies could withstand the damage caused by two consecutive shots from Su Lie.

The horde of corpses locked onto Su Lie's position through the sound of the gunfire.

However.

No matter how they struggled, they could not dodge Su Lie's bullets and rush to the bottom of the building.

Another half hour passed.

Su Lie jumped directly from the building with the Little Skeletons.

Under the effect of the hover boots.

Su Lie continuously used the hover Skill, quickly reaching the ground as if walking down stairs.

At this moment.

There were not only a large number of zombies on the ground.

There were also many god-tier basic resource treasure chests.

The Little Skeletons instantly dispersed, searching for treasure chests everywhere.

Su Lie stopped in front of a zombie corpse; he performed Random Treasure Refining on the monster crystal dropped by the zombie and the zombie's remains.

Hum! In the blink of an eye.

The zombie was refined into a White Bone Demon General.

The White Bone Demon General was 5 meters tall, with a burly build 2 meters wide and thick, sturdy bones. Its demonic bones were wrapped in streaks of green fluorescent aura, and there was no soul fire in its eye sockets.

It was like a skeleton without soul fire.

Su Lie's eyes lit up when he saw this.

This White Bone Demon General refined from a giant zombie would solve the mining problem currently facing the Shelter.

Although the daily amount mined by the Little Skeletons was extremely large, it still could not meet Su Lie's needs.

This White Bone Demon General had a huge physique, so it should be able to harvest more resources than the Little Skeletons.

Su Lie took out the Eye of Identification and looked at the White Bone Demon General's panel.

【 White Bone Demon General 】

【 Quality: Fine 】

【 Race: Demon Race 】

【 Master: Su Lie 】

【 life: 1000; Spirit: 1000; Endurance: 1000; Speed: 1000 】

【 Talent: Mental Communication, Self-Repair 】

【 Introduction: A rare demon species refined from a giant zombie, possessing a certain degree of Wisdom. It is not contaminated by the Mist. Its own demonic aura will contaminate surrounding life, but it will fade and dissipate over time, and will not affect life. 】

...

【 Mental Communication: Common quality Talent; can communicate with the master through mind 】

【 Self-Repair: Common quality; consumes a certain amount of Spirit value to repair its own damage. 】

...

"Demon Race? The kind of Demon Race like the White Bone Demon?"

Su Lie couldn't help but blink when he saw this.

When the Little Skeleton was first refined, it was a Common quality Undead Race with a Devouring Growth Talent.

However, its life and Speed attributes were only 50 points, while its Spirit and Endurance attributes were a full 100 points.

The White Bone Demon General's attributes were relatively balanced, all having reached 1000 points.

Obviously.

The White Bone Demon General's strength was stronger than the Little Skeleton's.

If it were to be Strengthened to god-tier, one could only wonder what kind of Skills and Talents it would awaken.

Thinking of this.

Su Lie Strengthened the White Bone Demon General.

Hum! Hum! Hum!

Rays of light appeared, shining in the darkness.

The White Bone Demon General, who was about to pay its respects, was stunned for a moment, then began to tremble with excitement.

After Su Lie finished Strengthening it.

It plopped down on its knees, and with a voice tinged with sobs, it communicated through mind: "White Bone Demon General pays respects to the Master! May my Master... I, the White Bone Demon General, am willing to be your slave for a lifetime... If I break this oath, I shall..."

Rumble!

As it expressed its loyalty, the mist rule also responded simultaneously, transforming into a mark branded onto the White Bone Demon General's forehead.

The Strengthened White Bone Demon General's bone body did not change much; it looked exactly the same as before.

Su Lie could only check it in detail using the Eye of Identification.

With one look, he was overjoyed: "Good! Good! Good! This White Bone Demon General is truly a born marksman!"

He saw that the White Bone Demon General's quality had been upgraded from Fine to god-tier.

Its life, Spirit, Endurance, and Speed attributes had increased from 1000 points to 100,000 points.

It had also awakened two Skills.

They were Bone Bow and Bone-Eroding Arrow.

【 Bone Bow: God-tier Skill; conjures a bone bow as a weapon. The bone bow can temporarily boost Spirit attribute by 100 times, Speed attribute by 100 times, and Endurance attribute by 100 times.

Basic Attack: Automatically conjures a bone arrow when drawing the bow. The arrow can deal damage equal to 100% of the White Bone Demon General's Spirit attribute to the enemy.

Can fire 10 arrows per second, with a range of 10 kilometers. 】

【 Bone-Eroding Arrow: God-tier Skill; conjures a armor-piercing arrow with armor-piercing power. It can deal dual damage to the enemy's life and Spirit, causing the enemy to take additional damage equal to 50 times the White Bone Demon General's Spirit attribute value, and it carries Bone-Eroding Poison, which can corrode the enemy's bones into foul water within 1 hour. 】

Besides this.

The White Bone Demon General had also awakened three Talents.

They were Infallible, Demon Species, and Soul Devour.

【 Infallible: God-tier Talent; the White Bone Demon General is a master of marksmanship, and its attacks against enemies are always 100% accurate. 】

【 Demon Species: God-tier Talent; the White Bone Demon General's Spirit attribute will be converted into Demonic Aura attribute with 0 delay, allowing it to cultivate more demon-type Skills. 】

【 Soul Devour: God-tier Talent; the White Bone Demon General can increase its own strength by devouring the souls of enemies. 】

In addition to awakening Skills and Talents.

Its original two Talents, Mental Communication and Self-Repair, had both been upgraded to god-tier.

Among them, Mental Communication had become the ability to communicate with any life form through mind.

Self-Repair had become the ability to consume 1 point of Demonic Aura to instantly recover all its injuries and restore itself to its peak state.

Su Lie looked carefully at the White Bone Demon General's panel, his eyes full of joy.

Afterwards.

Su Lie hurriedly looked at the Permanent Treasure Refining Skill.

He found the blueprint for refining the White Bone Demon General in the Skill's blueprint library: 1 level 2 monster crystal; 1 giant keratinized zombie.

"Good!"

Su Lie just gave an order to the White Bone Demon General kneeling before him, and he immediately used the Permanent Treasure Refining Skill on the corpses covering the ground.

About 1 hour and 30 minutes later.

Su Lie had already refined all 3015 giant zombies killed this time into White Bone Demon Generals and Strengthened them all.

He turned his head to look at the White Bone Demon Generals and Little Skeletons gathering around him, then turned to face the direction on his right: "According to the plan! Continue the advance!"
