[Note: The Ascalon Tombs is a high-level region, it is recommended that at least four survivors with third-tier strength explore in a group.]
Upon seeing this system prompt, Cao Xing frowned.
It was obvious that the difficulty of the Ascalon Tombs was higher than the Goblin Treasury.
In the Goblin Treasury, they already faced the Goblin King, a third-tier leader-level creature.
Although it was only a weakened version, it was enough to reflect its difficulty.
And in this area, they might encounter even more formidable creatures.
However, Cao Xing did not feel particularly afraid.
After all, his strength had greatly improved compared to when in the Goblin Treasury, it could be described as a qualitative change.
The group continued forward.
"Tap tap... tap tap..."
Dense footsteps continuously echoed.
This staircase leading underground was very long and very dark.
However, with Blom leading the way with his loud voice, it didn't seem so frightening.
He walked while humming a strange folk song.
"Your homeland is covered in white snow, frost covers the rivers and lakes~"
"The cold wind steals our words, this is only natural, so~"
"Don't let diamond tears swell in your eyes~"
The empty song echoed in the passage.
Cao Xing chuckled and asked, "Blom, what are you singing?"
Blom turned his head and grinned, "Lord, this is a little tune from my hometown, is it nice?"
Before Cao Xing could answer,
Hilda, who was following behind, said with a face full of disdain, "Tch... It's awful, don't sing anymore!"
Blom laughed, "Beautiful Lady Blood Spider, it seems you do not possess the musical cells to appreciate my melodious voice~"
And just at that moment, a blue light suddenly appeared in the dark passage.
Cao Xing focused his eyes and found it was a translucent entity, with a pale face, emitting a blue glow—a spiritual body!
The temperature throughout the entire passage quickly dropped.
The steps underfoot rapidly froze with a layer of frost.
The blue spiritual body just stared at the group, its hollow gaze seemed to carry scrutiny and hostility.
"By the gods, what is this ghostly thing?"
Blom yelled in fright, taking a few steps back and almost bumping into Assam.
Meanwhile, Cao Xing quickly glanced over this undead's attributes.
[Undead of Ascalon Soldier (lv24)]
[Rank: Third-tier ordinary-level creature]
[Life Value: 12540/12540]
[Attack Power: 461~487]
[Skill: Frost Swordsmanship (During an attack, there is a 20% chance to cause the enemy to enter a frozen state for 3 seconds)
Soul Slash (Unleashes a slash of sword qi, causing 133% damage to the target's soul and placing it in a brief state of fear.)
Spiritual Body (Reduces physical attacks received by 30% and causes fear in nearby enemies, lowering body surface temperature.)]
[Talent: Undead Body (Able to pass through walls by ignoring obstacles, increasing move speed by 30%. It cannot pass through other prohibitions on the wall.)]
(Introduction: Soldiers' ghosts bound here, the power of the Ancient Treasure Sword - Magdala has given them a second life but also an eternal curse.)
Cao Xing narrowed his eyes, sure enough, a third-tier monster appeared.
These undead had very formidable attributes.
And they also had a [Spiritual Body] skill capable of affecting temperature.
No wonder Cao Xing felt the passage's temperature drop so much.
At this moment, the undead warrior drew its weapon and emitted a voice that sounded like a soul whisper, questioning.
"Who... are you, and why have you trespassed into our resting place?"
