Chapter 36: Magnetic Stone Pillar, Brutally Beating the Skeleton Soldiers!

~7 min read 1,370 words

【Magnetic Stone Pillar】

Supernatural Grade: Second Tier

Effect: A rock pillar with super-strong magnetic force that automatically attracts all surrounding objects; the closer to the magnetic stone pillar, the greater the pulling force.

Supernatural beings can also increase or weaken the magnetic stone pillar's magnetic force by releasing mental power into it (picture).

……

"Another second-tier supernatural item; the owner of this castle is damn rich!"

Looking at the information displayed by the appraisal result, Su Hao showed a look of surprise.

He had guessed that this stone pillar was a supernatural item, but he hadn't expected it to actually be a second-tier supernatural item.

Although this magnetic stone pillar, combined with the traps in the latter half of the passage, caused him to suffer quite a bit.

To put it bluntly, if it weren't for the Flesh and Blood Controller supernatural sequence giving Su Hao an almost indestructible body, he would surely have died here today.

Even some second-tier supernatural beings, under an attack with no space to dodge, would ultimately be crushed into pulp by those four huge stones.

But precisely because of this, it shows the extraordinary nature of the magnetic stone pillar; if used properly, even a second-tier supernatural being can be trapped by it, and even pose a lethal threat to the opponent.

Such a good thing, Su Hao naturally wouldn't let it pass; he followed the method described in the appraisal result to temporarily shut off the magnetic stone pillar's natural suction, freeing himself from the predicament.

At the same time, with a thought, he stored the entire magnetic stone pillar into his Storage Bag.

Previously, the reason he couldn't store the magnetic stone pillar in his Storage Bag was because the pillar's suction force fused his body, the ground, and Su Hao's body into a single entity, preventing the Storage Bag from taking it in.

Speaking of which, the Item Appraisal Technique is truly a divine skill; it not only lets Su Hao avoid missing treasures, but also gives him many ways to store and use supernatural items.

Without the Item Appraisal Technique, even if Su Hao knew the Freshwater Storage Tank and the magnetic stone pillar were good things, he wouldn't be able to take them away.

"The magnetic stone pillar is a second-tier supernatural item; could these huge stones also be supernatural items?"

Looking at the huge stones scattered throughout the passage, Su Hao's eyes flickered slightly, and he used the Item Appraisal Technique on the nearest huge stone.

【Gray Rock Boulder】

Supernatural Grade: First Rank

Effect: The gray rock boulder has extremely high hardness; ordinary first-tier supernatural items find it hard to damage it, and the boulder itself has extraordinary weight, making it excellent building material.

……

"Hahaha! It really is a supernatural item; this time I've really struck it rich!"

Su Hao laughed loudly, ignoring his injuries, and stored all the gray rock boulders in the passage into his Storage Bag one by one.

These are also good things; if used to upgrade the shelter with supernatural materials, the gray rock boulders can absolutely boost the shelter's defensive power to an astonishing degree.

At least a first-tier supernatural being, even if they found Su Hao's shelter, would definitely be unable to break through its defenses.

Even some second-tier supernatural beings would have no way to deal with Su Hao's shelter.

If the gray rock boulders are synthesized once and then used as materials to upgrade the shelter, its defensive power will definitely be even more astonishing.

Whether it can block a third-tier supernatural being is uncertain, but second-tier supernatural beings definitely have no way to deal with Su Hao's shelter.

Besides being used to upgrade the shelter, the gray rock boulder is also a good synthesis material; when combined with armor, it can significantly increase the armor's defensive power.

"It's just this skeleton bone armor..."

Looking at the gaps between the bones on the skeleton bone armor, Su Hao shook his head helplessly; this gap is really too large.

"Hmm... perhaps using it to synthesize a giant axe would also be a good choice."

Su Hao rubbed his chin and began to think.

As the enemies Su Hao encounters grow stronger and the places he goes become more dangerous, even a ordinary serrated long blade can no longer meet his normal usage needs.

Moreover, after becoming a Flesh and Blood Controller, Su Hao's strength increased considerably, making the serrated long blade, a light weapon, feel awkward to use.

So, Su Hao thought about synthesizing the heavy-armored goblin warrior's giant axe.

"Let's talk about it when we get back."

Today's synthesis count is also used up; thinking too much is useless.

After storing all the gray rock boulders in the passage, Su Hao hefted his Storage Bag, which weighed over thirty catties, and glanced toward the exit of the passage.

"Take a look at the second floor's situation before heading back."

After hesitating for a moment, Su Hao pressed himself against the wall and walked toward the passage exit.

Neither Su Hao's injuries nor the increasingly heavy Storage Bag allow him to continue exploring.

Moreover, after his injury, his resistance to the Scarlet Curse has also become lower and lower, and a few bloodstreaks have appeared in his eyes.

However, to make the next exploration go more smoothly, Su Hao still decided to, while his condition is not yet very bad, first observe the layout of the second floor and any possible enemies.

……

When Su Hao exited the passage, he arrived at a hall smaller than the first floor, and the hall's layout was also somewhat different from that of the first floor.

Directly opposite the passage exit is a staircase leading to the third floor, with two small side corridors on either side, where one or two wooden doors can be vaguely seen.

Throughout the hall, there are more than twenty skeleton soldiers standing.

Some hold spears, some hold daggers, and others hold short bows with quivers on their backs.

The moment Su Hao stepped onto the hall floor, all the skeleton soldiers' eye sockets ignited with blue soul fire, and without hesitation they launched an attack on Su Hao.

"A bunch of skeleton soldiers dare to jump around in front of me?"

Seeing this, Su Hao gave a cold smile; in the passage, he had almost been crushed into paste by the huge stones, and he was holding in a bellyful of anger.

Skeleton soldiers belong to undead creatures; they are the lowest level of undead, and those with weaker strength can't even be defeated by an ordinary adult.

Those somewhat stronger can only exchange a couple of moves with first-tier supernatural beings, and Su Hao has never heard of any particularly strong individuals among skeleton soldiers.

Even though Su Hao is currently seriously injured, he is still fully confident in dealing with these skeleton soldiers; it's a perfect chance to vent his pent-up anger.

"Arcane Missile!"

With a thought, Su Hao condensed a white magic bullet on his fingertip and shot it at the nearest skeleton soldier.

Only hearing a Bang—, the skeleton soldier's head was blown off, and the soul fire in its eye sockets also gradually extinguished after the head rolled to the ground.

「Occasionally bullying newbies feels pretty good, huh! 」

Su Hao smiled slightly, his mood improved considerably, and as his thoughts turned, he continued to fire the second and third Arcane Missiles.

In a short while, the Skeleton Soldiers that had been attacking him all had their soul fire extinguished and collapsed motionless on the ground.

If he didn't have Arcane Missiles, Su Hao would find it somewhat troublesome to deal with these Skeleton Soldiers, but with Arcane Missiles, it's a different story.

Dealing with these small fry, it's really one shot each.

Bang bang bang—!

Just then, a series of impact sounds suddenly came from the corridors on both sides.

Over ten Stitching Monsters smashed through the wooden doors and rushed out from the corridors on both sides.

These Stitching Monsters are exactly the same as the one on the first floor, equally bulky, with one hand holding a Wolf Tooth Club and the other hand's wrist bearing a wolf head.
