Chapter 16 Two choices, Skeleton is not afraid of death!

Where did this undead ghost come from?

Why are there undead creatures in the Northern Forest?

Countless questions troubled the adventurers, and their eyes revealed a heartbreaking confusion.

The girl who was kneeling on the ground and preparing a magic circle stared blankly at the skeleton not far away, her eyes full of disbelief and shock.

"Be on alert! Enemy spotted, ready to kill!"

A young male adventurer with red hair and a big sword in hand stood up and looked seriously at the lame skeleton soldier running towards him.

"This is very troublesome. There are undead creatures here. We should report to the Hall of Light when we return."

A young blue-haired wizard muttered and began to chant magic, preparing to cast a spell to attack the lame skeleton soldier in front of him.

"Hey, that's not right. Are these NPCs going to attack me?"

Soon, I Love Berserker discovered something was wrong.

Netizens were also reminding him frantically.

"Anchor, don't go over there!"

"These NPCs are going to kill you! That guy has already started casting a spell!"

"Shit, what the expansion pack said was right, the continent of Esk is the territory of the God of Light! The undead are all enemies of the NPCs!"

"A minute of silence in advance for the anchor."

"Everyone can celebrate the 84th death. I hope the anchor can break the 100-death record."

…

"Hi."

I Love Berserker stood there, maintaining a relatively safe distance, and tentatively greeted the NPC in front of him: "Hello, I have no ill intentions."

"Don't look at me as a skeleton, but I am actually a loving and responsible skeleton soldier, determined to contribute my little bit of strength for the continent of Esk."

I have been holding back on my love for the Berserker for a long time, as he really doesn't know how to communicate with the NPCs. In a normal game, you can just find the NPC and accept the quest.

"Death Scourge" is very naughty.

Each NPC has a unique personality and randomness. Whether you can accept the task depends entirely on your own ability.

“6666, the anchor is a loving and responsible skeleton.”

"Hahaha, he's obviously a villain, but he still speaks so aggrievedly."

"You bastard planner, look at what you've done to the anchor. It's not easy for him to accept a task!"

There was a cheerful atmosphere in the barrage.

"Can this undead ghost speak?"

A young warrior frowned and looked warily at the skeleton soldier in front of him. It didn't seem that dangerous.

"Don't be fooled by illusions!"

An older adventurer dressed as a priest spoke in a deep voice: "Undead creatures are proficient in soul communication. This is their racial talent. These evil creatures can communicate with any intelligent creature, and then deceive and plunder their lifespan!"

"Although the God of Death has fallen, the undead creatures have not been completely wiped out."

"We should follow the teachings of the Hall of Light and purify every evil existence!"

“God so loved the world.”

The priest's tone was very serious, and the adventurer beside him nodded solemnly.

The red-haired swordsman strode forward: "Let me do it! I will use my fighting spirit to burn its soul!"

"I……"

I love the Berserker and he was angry. He rolled his eyes and shouted, "You NPCs are really unreasonable. If you don't want to give me a quest, then don't give me a quest. But why do you want to kill the players when you see them?"

"Although the expansion pack says that the continent of Esk is the territory of the God of Light, you want to kill me as soon as you see me. My gaming experience has been ruined by you!"

I love Berserker clamoring: "I want to give a bad review! I want to report! Death God Scourge abuses players!"

"NPC? Player? Death Scourge?"

The priest and his companions looked at each other. They could not understand the strange words that the skeleton soldier was muttering, but they understood the other words.

"grim Reaper!"

"Everything related to the god of death must be purified!"

The priest roared, and the red-haired swordsman strode forward, with the greatsword surrounded by burning fighting spirit lowered, dragging the sword towards the skeleton soldier in front of him.

The momentum is high and the murderous intent is fierce!

"Anchor, run!"

"Don't just stand there like an idiot. If you can avoid death, then do it!"

"Run! We have finally reached the edge of the Novice Forest. If you die, you will have to run through the forest all over again!"

Subtitles kept flashing on the barrage, and everyone was telling me to run away quickly.

"run?"

I Love Berserker sneered at the red-haired swordsman in front of him, tore off his ribs and held them in his hand as a weapon.

"This idiot keeps calling people undead all the time. He's so crazy!"

"I'm a ghost, so what? I'm eating your rice!"

"Their attitude is so condescending. Is this still the service attitude of an NPC towards players? I think these NPCs need to be educated!"

I love the Berserker. He held his head high and held his ribs. "Even if I die today, I will test the damage. When I change my job, I will come back to settle the score with them!"

Anyway, this is an open world, and the official said that NPCs can also be killed.

Just like a scroll in an ancient game, you can do whatever you want in the continent of Esk.

"bring it on!"

I Love Berserker laughed loudly, holding the ribs, and swept the adventurers in front of him: "You have two choices!"

"One, I'll gang up on you guys!"

"Two, you guys pick me alone!"

…

"Fuck!"

"The host is very impressive! The live broadcast effect is perfect!"

"Have a safe trip, anchor. I will take care of your wife and children."

"I'm here to give the anchor [Shovel] x10 (1 day of life)."

…

“Arrogant!”

The red-haired swordsman sneered, his pace suddenly quickened, his right hand tightly gripped the hilt of the sword, his center of gravity dropped, and he let out a low growl.

"Fighting skills, draw your sword and slash!"

A brilliant red light suddenly burst out, like a streak of silk exploding, and slashed towards the Berserker I Love.

This sword is too fast!

It was so fast that I didn't react at all, and there was only one thought in my mind.

"This is so unfair! NPCs actually have such powerful skills! How can players survive?"

Just when I love Berserker I think I'm going to die.

"etc!"

A clear and pleasant voice had already sounded.

The sword was drawn and chopped off by an inch.

"Gah!"

The arm of the Berserker holding the ribs broke instantly, and the wrist part fell to the ground, with an extremely smooth cross-section.

When I Love Berserker came to my senses, the red-headed swordsman had stood in front of me without me noticing when. He lowered his head, with his long hair draped over his shoulders, and he still maintained the posture of drawing his sword.

I don't know when his sword was sheathed.

"Damn... this skill is so cool."

I love that the Berserker was not afraid, nor did he look down at his broken hand. Instead, he looked at the red-headed swordsman in front of him with burning passion.

This is the skill that men should learn!

"Aliya, why are you stopping me?"

The red-headed swordsman stood up and looked coldly at the skeleton in front of him. Then he turned around and looked at the girl kneeling in the center of the magic circle. She was the one who had spoken just now.

"You're so careless just turning your back on me!"

"But it seems that I can't kill him. He's so strong. My attack may only be able to forcibly deduct 1 drop of blood?"

I Love Berserker analyzed it for a while and decided to stay put.

"Swordsman Sabie, I think you misunderstood."

Alia was not beautiful, with freckles on her face, but her voice was exceptionally gentle. She said hesitantly, "I was casting a summoning spell just now. I think... it might be my summoned creature."

"We have been in the Northern Forest for some time, and we have never heard of any traces of undead creatures in the Northern Forest over the years. It is just a forest of monsters."

"Moreover, the undead all live in a higher plane world, so it is impossible for them to just appear on the Esk Continent."

"Why did it suddenly appear when I cast the summoning spell?"

Alia smiled bitterly and said, "The answer is obvious. My spell went wrong. I failed again and summoned an undead creature."

“That makes sense.”

The priest nodded and said, "This may really be Alia's summoned creature."

"So what do we do now?"

The red-headed swordsman looked at the skeleton soldier and frowned , "You're not going to kill him?"

"I hope everyone can forgive it. After all, it is my summoned creature."

"Alia, it's too dangerous for you to do this! The Temple of Light does not allow the existence of any undead creatures!"

"I know, but I have to complete my coursework, otherwise I won't be able to graduate. My instructor said that if I can't successfully summon a creature again, I will be forced to drop out."

Alia hesitated for a while, but soon made up her mind: "I will take it back to the academy and let the instructor make the decision. If the teacher wants to hand it over to the Temple of Light, then I will obey the academy's orders."

"I……"

The priest pondered for a moment and looked at his companions.

The red-headed swordsman shrugged his shoulders, looking nonchalant: "It's fine with me. It's just a skeleton soldier anyway. I can kill him anytime."

"I don't mind."

"Do whatever you want with it."

"I support Alia's decision. She can't be expelled from school!"

…

"You're not going to kill me?"

I Love Berserker blinked and looked at the adventurers in front of him.

He felt as if something had happened to him.

"Could this be the way to start a mission?"

I love that Berserker feels like his instincts are spot on, and he feels like he’s about to get lucky.

"All right."

The priest nodded: "Take care of this skeleton soldier for now, don't purify it yet."

He is a priest of the academy, not a priest of the Temple of Light. Although the God of Light is the largest belief system on the continent of Esk, he is a typical academic .

As for why priests hate the undead, it is because of their profession.

"Thank you, Swordsman Sabie."

Alia smiled sweetly at the red-headed swordsman, who blushed for a rare moment.

"So you really are called Shabi!"

I Love Berserker looked at the red-headed swordsman in front of him and was a little surprised: "There is actually someone with a name like that?"

"Is there a problem?"

Shabi looked back at the skeleton soldier. He didn't know what Shabi meant. He just thought that this skeleton soldier was interesting. He didn't seem to be as evil, bloodthirsty and murderous as described in the books.

On the contrary... this skeleton soldier seems to be able to communicate normally like humans.

"Ahhh, no problem, it's a good name."

I love Berserker's heartfelt praise.

"Hey, you, come here?"

Alia waved at the skeleton soldiers, her tone uncertain. It was obvious that she was not doing very well and was not used to the control of summoned creatures.

This was her first time successfully summoning a creature, and she was a little nervous.

"You talking to me?"

I love the Berserker turned his head and looked at Alia, and suddenly at this moment, the divine system suddenly gave the skeleton soldier a new prompt.

[I Love Berserker has reached the quest activation conditions, generating a new quest "I am the Summoner". ]

[I am a summoned creature]: Your coincidental appearance makes the quest character think that you are her summoned creature. This is a magic apprentice from the academy who is worried about the graduation exam of the summoning department. Do you choose to help her? Pretend to be her summoned creature and help her graduate successfully? The quest reward is unknown, and the quest process is unknown.

[Task Reminder]: All your decisions may affect the direction and final outcome of the mission, and may even lead to mission failure.

"Mission! Mission appears!"

"There is indeed a mission!"

I love the Berserker and I was so excited. What a surprising turn of events. Not only did I not have to die, but I also activated the mission!

As expected , wealth and honor are achieved through risk!

As for this mission...is there even a need to ask?

Of course I am willing to help her!

I have to complete the mission!

"Hey, my lord, here I come."

My Berserker's attitude immediately changed. He limped towards the girl and started to lick her: "My respected master, I am your summoned creature."

"Don't look at me as a dead ghost, but I am very capable!"

"Serving tea and water is no problem. If you are in danger, I can also stand up to protect you! I am not afraid of death!"
