Chapter 112 Skeleton Transformation
At night, Mu Hua had no idea of the discussion about him in Webster Manor. After Tabitha returned to her room, Mu Hua also returned to his room and entered the Island of the Abyss.
On the green island of the abyss, several bamboo pigs avoided Mu Hua who suddenly appeared. They were a kind of harmless herbivorous monsters.
It has lavender skin and is the size of a half-sized dolphin. When in danger, it will cast Stoneskin Protection on itself.
However, because the magic power is too low, casting magic will not only make their movements more clumsy, but a well-polished low-level weapon can bleed and skin them.
They were the ones Mu Hua had encountered in the courtyard earlier. Mu Hua captured them and brought them to the Abyss Island, originally wanting to see if they could survive safely on the island.
After confirming that the Abyss Island had no adverse effects on them, these monsters with delicious meat added some vitality to the Abyss Island.
They reproduce very quickly. It only takes ten days for them to breed a litter in the outside world. They do not dig holes all over the world like rabbit-like monsters. Now they have become Mu Hua's source of snacks on the Abyss Island. If he needs to control the number, he will also eat them as a snack on Mondays.
However, the devil does not like these delicacies in the mouths of humans. With weak magic power and thin soul, eating them is like chewing wax for Monday.
This also led to them not being too afraid of Monday. To these bamboo pigs, Mu Hua was definitely like a big devil, especially when he brought out the barbecue grill.
When Mu Hua summoned out a group of black-armored skeleton generals, a group of bamboo pigs nearby simply fell into collective stiffness.
The soft lavender skin turned into rough gray gravel, and they were seen taking stiff steps, struggling to move forward to a corner on the edge of the island.
A group of silly, cute, and delicious monsters.
Taking a closer look at the black-armored skeleton general, his own undead, Mu Hua's face was full of curiosity. He touched him here and there, and put his hands all over him.
The big guys are over four meters tall and look very sturdy. Their full-covering helmets hide their ugly, dry heads and faces, and the hem of their black armor resembles a battle skirt.
Gauntlets, combat boots, their armor is heavy armor in style, and looks more solid and solemn than the Death Knights who have evolved into light armor.
If a person who has no knowledge of the undead suddenly sees them, they will look like majestic warriors, and it will be difficult to associate them with skeletal undead.
With the appearance of the black-armored skeleton general, a sudden breath of death immediately surged in the air around them.
However, perhaps due to the special environment of the Abyss Island, the breath of death seemed to be suppressed and assimilated by the external magic power, and instantly merged into nature.
There were thirty-three black-armored skeleton generals. Mu Hua gave ten of them a fishing rod each. The 'Fishing in the Abyss' was like a slender stick in their hands.
Ten black-armored skeleton generals went to the fishing spot designated by Mu Hua to fish, while the remaining twenty-three black-armored skeleton generals continued to excavate and build the arena.
After preliminary investigation, it was found that the terrain of the Abyss Island was really unusual. At least Mu Hua had not yet discovered the maximum thickness of the rock and soil layer of this island.
The edge of the island was dug fifty meters down and there was still intact soil and stone. Mu Hua, the owner of the Colosseum, was not planning to dig that deep. Now he just wanted to further expand the area of the Colosseum.
The fishing was temporarily supervised by Zhou Yi and the Black-Armored Skeleton General, so Mu Hua was not in a hurry to meditate and make medicine.
After finding a relatively flat piece of grass and unfolding a complex and mysterious magic circle, Mu Hua began to attempt to transform the undead.
The first thing is to create dead bones. As soon as Mu Hua thought about it, a large amount of information about the skeletal morphology and structure of various organisms appeared in his mind.
Phalanges, tibias, spines, skulls, etc., not only contain information about various bones, but also include information about the body structures of various organisms.
It's interesting, the information ultimately points to something like piecing together a model.
However, the amount of information is too large, and this information is usually in a dormant state. If all of it is activated at once, Mu Hua's consciousness would be unable to bear it.
This information requires a process of activation and absorption, and Mu Hua is interpreting it selectively for the time being.
Mu Hua filtered all kinds of information in his brain. Perhaps because the level of skeleton summoning was not enough, he found that there was no information about high-level monsters in these materials.
There is no information about the Terror Knight, the Demon Dragon, or even the Construct Bone Dragon yet.
Mu Hua thought that the person who created the magical system of skeleton transformation must be a madman.
After countless years of evolution, the undead have reached the most suitable state. Even if they are constructed, it is quite appropriate to follow the body structure of the skeleton undead. However, in the skeleton transformation, in addition to some more mature data on constructed undead, there is also a lot of information on the bones of other monsters. This is obviously intended for practitioners to make some creative and extreme productions.
Clearing his mind of distracting thoughts, Mu Hua was not in the mood to try any extreme creations. He first made a constructed undead based on the skeleton warrior to practice.
The first step in making a constructed undead is to match the bones and construct a corpse.
As for corpses, it is not that complicated once you have mastered the refining technique. You can use the ashes to create a single section of bones, or you can piece them together through consciousness and invest more ashes at once to refine a whole body.
Of course, the overall refining requires a thorough understanding of the structure of the skull you want to make, otherwise if you produce something like 'arthritis' or 'bone hyperplasia', it will become a waste product.
Mu Hua had nothing to worry about in this regard. While others were constantly learning and analyzing skeleton transformation, he learned the whole set directly as if he had obtained an inheritance.
All kinds of refining techniques are engraved in the soul, what else is there to worry about?
Thirty units of ashes and thirty units of soul dust, combined together, can create the skeleton of a skeleton warrior, and then infect it with death energy to turn the skeleton into dead bones.
As the materials were injected, in the strange generation array, the skeleton of a skeleton warrior gradually changed from blurry to illusory, from illusory to real, and finally was refined to be completed, standing silently in front of Mu Hua.
The invasion of death energy might be quite troublesome in the outside world, but it is very simple on the Island of Abyss. Although it will not actively form a negative interference to the outside world, this space contains all kinds of strange elements.
"This can be considered a high-end product." Looking at the skeleton in front of him, Mu Hua muttered in thought.
The skeleton warrior in front of him is just a simple skeleton for now, but this skeleton is really worth some money in the hands of a necromancer.
After all, many necromancers would even use ordinary bones to piece together the undead, so this skeleton is at least real undead bones.
The entire skeleton is complete with head, hands and tail. Even if you go to the Courtyard of the Undead to fight skeleton warriors, it would be quite troublesome to collect such a complete and matching set of skeletons.
However, since there are many ways to directly kill the soul of a skeleton warrior, the skeleton of an ordinary skeleton warrior is only worth a small amount of money.
Now that we have the bones, it will naturally be the soul's turn.
Constructing the souls of the undead is a bit more troublesome than making their bodies.
Usually people will capture a ghost, then erase the ghost's consciousness, stuff the ghost with their own spiritual imprint into the construct, let the ghost use its own spiritual body to infect the bones, and finally control the construct undead by controlling the ghost.
Mu Hua didn't have to go through the trouble of capturing another ghost to train.
Not only can he transform bones, he has also mastered soul transformation. Soul transformation includes the technique of soul creation. Creating a soul is a bit troublesome, but creating a ghost is much simpler.
Of course, the prerequisite is to have the corresponding materials.
One unit of soul fragments, three units of soul dust, and an ordinary ghost can match the skeleton of this skeleton warrior.
It was originally just a practice. Mu Hua created a stupid ghost, and then put the skeleton and the ghost into the alchemy circle. The soul fire was ignited in the skull of the skeleton warrior.
Walking, running, punching, and rolling are not able to transform one's own bones into weapons, and the actions of the constructed undead require a certain degree of conscious guidance from the ruler.
Mu Hua controlled the constructed skeleton warrior to perform a series of actions.
It has a little learning ability, but unless the bones are strengthened, there is no growth. Or it can be understood as a puppet of the undead system.
In fact, if operated properly, the combat capability of this constructed skeleton warrior may not be weaker than that of an ordinary skeleton warrior.
But the extreme lack of ability to act independently and the need for conscious control is particularly troublesome.
After playing with it for a while, Mu Hua lost interest in it.
It's just a constructed skeleton warrior, just an eyesore.
Pointing to a random place, Mu Hua asked the constructed skeleton warrior to dig a hole and bury itself...
