Rebirth: Over the Horizon

Chapter 104 - Corrosive Crypt (1)

The Corrosive Crypt was very spacious, but because of the special weather and environment here, the poisonous fog was always lingering around.

But, with the protection of Aura purification, his HP was undisturbed. 

"Even though I am not affected by the poison, my MP is slowly running out, if an unexpected variable occurs...It seems that I must speed up." 

After speaking, his feet accelerated the speed of advancement. 'I have to finish this soon.' 

With that thought in his mind, Adam marched along the path, then stopped at a very dim place. 

He heard a slight noise, which seemed to be the sound of weapons and stones colliding with each other.

He was silent for about a second and then shot a fireball. 

The fireball lit up the place briefly for a second. Before the fireball exploded and went out, he saw about three weird skeletons.

They were dressed in heavy armour and were holding long-headed axes. Adam sighed slightly. 

If he had walked deep into the depths of the crypt without any pause just now, he might be ambushed by four skeleton gladiators. 

Although it wouldn't be a fatal one, he would have still lost some considerable amount of HP and his time would have been delayed. 

Adam instantly entered a state of battle, a series of fireballs flew out and landed hard on the skeleton. 

[You have killed a skeleton gladiator.] 

[+EXP]

Adam only came to know their name after killing one of them. 

The moment, the first skeleton died, leaving behind a fragment of the skeleton. 

His two companions charged towards Adam, their weapons seemed tearing the air in front of them. 

'Their skill seems to be similar to that of charge.' 

'Charge' was an exclusive skill that can be used by knights when he rides his horse. 

They still had a great amount of damage output and the MP for this skill was also low, on top of that CD was also only 3 min. 

Because Adam's profession was a warrior in his previous life, he knew a bit about knights skills. 

Even though he backed off, one of the skeleton knight chased him and landed his charge attack on Adam. 

[-17,500 HP]

Even though he received a great deal of damage, Adam didn't hesitate to do the next course of action. 

[The debuff effect: Stun is purified by aura purification.] 

While thanking the old man for giving him an incredible skill like aura purification.

Adam swirled the abyss angel towards the skeleton's skull and smashed it into two. 

The last skeleton, fell into a state of silence after its companions were easily killed.

There was no fear or other emotions on their heads under the armour, and the skeletal gladiator stood still in its place.

Since the skeleton was so polite, it would not be nice if Adam refused its kindness. 

"Come forward: Little Fox" 

The air beside his head replied and a small portal opened, through the gate, a small cute flying fox came out.

"Papa~" 

It pounced on Adam's face and acted cotqueshily. 

"You can show your affection towards me afterwards, now kill that ugly skeleton." 

Since he was now alone and the skeleton also seemed like it was in a drowsy state, it was the perfect chance to test out his little pet's power. 

"Papa told, I will kill~" 

Cutely saying the scary words, the little fox zoomed towards the skeleton. 

"DIEEE~" 

The fox roared with its cute voice and a layer of ice mist formed around skeletons' heads. 

But, the moist air was like acid, it slowly eroded the skull of the skeleton. 

[Your pet has levelled up.] 

[Please chose a name for her] 

Adam thought for a second and came up with the best he could think of. 

"Luna...Your name will be Luna from now on."

"Aye~ Thanks, Papa~" 

After making an aura purification layer around Luna, both of them continued to march forward. 

 As Adam walked, he continued to poke his ears to listen to the various subtle sounds in the crypt.

 There was such a slight "ding-ding" sound from afar from time to time. 

This indicated that there were still a large number of skeleton gladiators in the distance. 

The sound came from all directions, there were a total of nine sound sources. 

'If there are four skeleton gladiators at each sound source, then there are at least thirty-six skeleton gladiators.' 

Even though his priority was to reach the crypt's heart, if these monsters ganged up at him while fighting the boss, he will be done for. 

So, Adam decided to clean up this place, he started to approach those sound sources consciously. 

After about half an hour, he killed all the skeleton gladiators at the sound source. In half an hour, he lost more than 70% of HP. 

Even though it was a huge price to pay, now his level was 95, which seemed like equal compensation. 

After walking for some distance, Adam arrived before a cave-like structure, without any lights it was even darker inside. 

Fortunately, Adam had the crystals and ores which he had previously mined, the small amount of light was enough for him to fight without any disadvantage. 

At that moment, Adam spotted the little yellowish flame burning in distance at the same time it seemed as the flame was moving. 

After a few seconds the creature finally came into Adam's light range, 'That is not a light, but a spiritual fire burning in the body of the skeleton mage' 

[Skeletal Mage]

[LvL: 90] 

Adam slowly approached the mage, who was still unaware of his presence as he went a little forward. 

He spotted seven more skeletal gladiators, with the Skeleton Wizard, there are a total of eight units.

Adam raised Abyss Angel and cast a fireball to deal with the two of the gladiators who were standing at the front. 

"Flame Erupt" 

He used the Epic-grade skill [Flame Erupt] to deal with the most threatening of all, skeletal mage. 

How can the Skeleton Wizard withstand the Epic skill like [Flame Erupt] after receiving a direct hit with super high damage? 

It was broken up in an instant, and the spiritual fire was extinguished. 

It also collapsed with two skeleton gladiators. At this time, there were only two skeleton gladiators left in this area.

Even though it was underground and the smile came from the flame, didn't have an opening to go out. 

It wasn't a problem for both Adam and his little foxy, she quickly flew and took care of the remaining two gladiators. 

"Yeah~ Die~"
