Chapter 99: Courtyard of the Dead
The Undead Courtyard safe zone in Roman City.

A courtyard with a safe zone means that humans have had effective communication with the owner of the courtyard or have completed an incomplete crusade against it.

This gave them permission to establish a safe zone in the courtyard.

No monsters will descend into the safe zone. The biggest difference between it and the ritual array is that the ritual array can be destroyed by monsters. At the same time, unless there is a demonic tide trying to invade the human world, the safe zone will usually not be attacked by monsters.

Unlike Fiona's Courtyard, the Courtyard of the Undead in Romen City did not actually achieve the subjugation of the Lord of the Courtyard.

In other words, the true body of the Lord of the Courtyard was not killed, nor was the fragment of the world obtained.

Except for the safe zone, anywhere here may become a place for humans and the undead to fight. Although it has received a lot of funding from various parties, the Roman Undead Courtyard is more desolate than most courtyards.

The city is like a small town, with ten-meter-high walls forming fortifications, city walls, moats, drawbridges, and iron and wooden gates. It is more like a medieval castle. The number of war machines and garrisons in the city far exceeds that of adventurers.

At this time, Mu Hua was standing in a wasteland about 300 meters away from the city wall. He looked at the scattered bones on the ground, floating evil spirits and wandering skeleton warriors.

Monsters can be seen less than 300 meters from the safe zone, which shows how desolate this courtyard is. A world of the dead, a courtyard despised by most adventurers.

The enemy has seventeen skeleton warriors.

On our side, we have twenty-three skeleton generals.

Looking ahead, Mu Hua held his waist with one hand and pointed forward with the other hand as if he were "Jam Sweetheart". Dozens of magic circles appeared around him.

After hunting demons for a long time, Mu Hua finally found the feeling of turning the tables.

"Crush them!" Mu Hua shouted, and a fireball whizzed into the groups of skeleton warriors in the distance.

"Roar~" the undead roared.

A gray-black, mummy-like undead, the Skeleton General, is Mu Hua’s new summon after the Skeleton Summoning reaches LV20.

Unlike Skeleton Warriors and Skeleton Guards, Skeleton Generals are no longer just gray skeletons. Their body shape is similar to that of Skeleton Guards, but they have flesh attached to their skeletons.

Although the dried flesh does not contain any moisture or blood, it gives them greater strength and defense, and also makes their appearance more evil and terrifying.

"Boom~Boom~Boom~" The fireball ignited the skeleton warriors in the wilderness.

In front of the skeleton warriors, the giant skeleton general had not yet rushed into the battlefield, and only three of the seventeen skeleton warriors were left.

The skeleton warrior holding the knife showed no fear, but at this moment, the soul fire in the skulls of the remaining three skeleton warriors was swaying, as if brewing a hint of confusion.

"Gurgle~Gurgle~" The Skeleton General's throat was able to make some sounds. Not only were the enemies confused, they were also quite confused.

The master said he wanted to crush them, but you threw a bunch of fireballs at them and only three skeletons were left. There are more than 20 of us brothers, what are we going to crush?

"Roar~" the roar started again.

If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. A group of skeleton generals holding huge shields and swords smashed three skeleton warriors into pieces, and rushed towards a farther place with a grunt. There seemed to be another group of skeletons one or two hundred meters away.

"Hahaha~~" Mu Hua laughed comfortably and called out to Taibesha beside him. With a sniper rifle on his shoulder, he walked towards the direction where the Skeleton General was advancing.

Taibesa had already asked Mu Hua where the Skeleton General came from, and Mu Hua still insisted that he had some connections. Looking at Mu Hua at this moment, he looked like a villain boss, which made Taibesa smile bitterly and shook her head.

My cousin seemed a little bit carried away, and he didn't even pay attention to the adventurers who were filming videos around him.

. . . . . . .

Skeleton Summoning LV23
Skeleton General: Constitution 296, Intelligence 60, Spirit 150. Skills: Shield Bash, Chop, Sweep.

With fifty kilograms of low-level magic stones and more than forty level five magic stones that Taibesha got for him, Mu Hua stayed on the Abyss Island for a night. Then, he and Taibesha came to the Courtyard of the Undead in Roman City, which led to the current situation.

Name: Mu Hua. Race: Human. Level: 94. HP: 99%
Magic: 91%
Constitution: 298
Intelligence: 88
Spirit: 147
Magic adaptability: B
Allocable points: 2
Talents: Incinerator, Primary Water Elemental Affinity, Primary Fire Elemental Affinity

技能：渡鸦召唤LV10，骸骨召唤LV23，火球散射LV15、亡灵骨盾LV15，角质皮肤LV1、凝结LV1、落羽术LV2、炼狱武装MAX、灵魂专武LV12、鉴定术LV1、射术LV3、魔力加护LV14、低温LV1、撕咬LV17、劈砍LV4、碎石弹LV6、冰锥术LV6、闪电箭LV7、流血诅咒LV2、麻痹诅咒LV2、骨牙LV4。。。

During this period, Mu Hua was relatively conservative in fishing on the Abyss Island. He had eight fishing rods in his hand, all of which he concentrated at the Goblin fishing spot.

Mu Hua planned to wait until his two tons of low-level magic stones arrived before trying to catch some big fish. The fishing these days had been relatively stable, and no monsters above the Bear Goblin level had appeared.

No fishing rods were thrown and no surprises occurred.

A total of twenty-six Hundred Refined Secret Stones were melted out, and all of them were smashed by Mu Hua on the Skeleton Summoning. The other skill upgrades were all done using similar skill stones.

After the Skeleton Summoning reaches LV20, a Skeleton General appears and the Skeleton Guards begin to be laid off. However, the level magic stone that Taibesha got for Mu Hua only allowed Mu Hua to learn a new bone tooth skill.

Bone Fangs should be considered a relatively low-end undead magic, and the magic's attack form is to release sharp fangs that are like bullets.

The strength is barely enough to match the Exorcism Bullet. Every hundred points of spiritual attribute increase of the caster will increase the attack strength of Bone Fang by one level.

How to say it, it consumes low mana, and the number of bone teeth will increase after upgrading. It is suitable for bullying weak enemies, because the magic strength is linked to the soul strength. It is a not very impressive skill for now.

Considering Mu Hua's current mental attributes, the Bone Fang he cast was at most as strong as a level 2 exorcism bullet. With this kind of lethality, it's no better to just shoot with a machine gun, and the bullets don't cost much.

Although he only learned Bone Fang, it doesn't mean that the magic stones that Taibetha got didn't produce other skill stones.

Bone spears, corpse explosions, blood curses, and undead captivity. Perhaps because those magic stones are all from undead creatures, they melt out black magic skill stones.

It has to be said that the growth of Mu Hua's spiritual attributes during this period is not slow, and it is not the result of adding points. It can be said that it is all thanks to Tuesday.

It’s just that Mu Hua’s spiritual attributes are not up to standard yet, so he can’t chew those skill stones for the time being and can only put them away first.

After several smeltings, Mu Hua also discovered some problems with his skills.

After some skills reach level 10, they need to learn other magic as a prerequisite to continue upgrading, such as Fireball and Skeleton Summoning. These skills probably have the potential to become inherent magic.

If you don't have this potential, after the skill reaches level ten, you can use the Hundred Refinements Secret Stone or similar skill stones to improve your training level normally.

His own attributes increased a little, and the improvement of conventional skills was not very significant, but the appearance of the Skeleton General increased Mu Hua's combat power by a considerable margin.

Mu Hua's preparations to leave the city also alarmed the garrison officers in the safe zone. The Courtyard of the Undead was really short of manpower.

Some necromancers and suspected witches outside the city avoided Mu Hua from a distance, but did not go far away.

Some people were whispering, some were filming videos, and most of their words were filled with envy.

The visual effects brought by the groups of skeleton generals are far beyond the comparison of skeleton warriors and skeleton guards, but they are not high-end undead after all. It can be seen from the reactions of these people that they are probably all relatively tender.

"Mu Hua, are we being too ostentatious? Those videos..." Walking beside Mu Hua, Taibesha reminded him.

"It doesn't matter. It will be blurred anyway. There is no shortage of strange people and anecdotes in this world." Mu Hua shook his head.

"Strange people and anecdotes? Maybe not as many as you imagined?" Tabitha retorted, but Mu Hua didn't care much.

Loren emphasized personal privacy, and the Goddess of Justice seemed to be quite cooperative. Without Mu Hua's authorization, any images taken related to him would be blurred, and the Magic Network Management Agency did not need to intervene.

Most of the adventurers who come to the Courtyard of the Dead are necromancers, undead wizards, witches, and the like.

The adventurers here can be said to be all "bad guys". There is no need to restrain yourself in front of them. Being more outspoken may save you more trouble.
