A thick book with a black cover appeared in the void. He opened it facing him, revealing lines of small, crystal-clear frost letters that emitted cold light:

"In this strange place full of undead and heroic spirits, your soul naturally resonates with this place, thus activating deep potential and awakening special abilities: the Book of the Dead."

"The Book of the Dead immediately begins to release its power and provides you with optional commissions."

"Current number of optional orders: 2."

"Please choose one of the commissions to execute to get the corresponding reward."

Hope ignited in Wu Xiaode's heart and he quickly looked down.

"Commission 1: Sensible Lamb."

"Commission statement: The one-eyed giant is an extremely powerful existence. Even if you awaken a rare ability like the Book of the Dead, you will not be able to defeat it in a hurry, so you are dead."

"The cyclops longs for a perfect meal, and as a lamb to be slaughtered, please strip off your clothes so that the giant can eat happily."

"Entrustment reward: Eaten by a giant."

Wu Xiaode read it quickly and couldn't help but curse.

Who will choose this commission?

Who would?

——By the way, this crazy ability really awakened on its own?

He continued to look down and saw another commission below:

"Commission Two: Lamb to the Slaughter."

"Entrustment statement: You must ensure that the little girl lives, even temporarily."

"Entrusted reward: This is your only chance to survive. This book cannot guarantee that doing so will be useful, but there is always some illusory hope."

Wu Xiaode's heart skipped a beat and he squinted at the masked man and the old man.

The two of them were seen staring at the one-eyed giant, their expressions full of vigilance, but they turned a blind eye to the black book in the void.

As for the little girl, she was vomiting blood.

She was dying, and she didn't even glance at these cold little words in the void.

Could it be...

Can only you see this book?

"Everyone," the masked man grasped the sword and said, "This place is extremely ominous, so I'll take one step first."

The masked man jumped up slightly and flew towards the corner.

flight!

Wu Xiaode's heart skipped a beat.

——The masked man can actually fly!

This was not over yet. The old man waved his scepter and shouted: "Go! Go! Go!"

A firebird several meters long appeared at the old man's feet, holding him up and chasing the masked man.

Wu Xiaode looked in the direction the two of them were heading and saw a hole the size of one person in the corner.

I see!

With the huge body of the giant, it is impossible to pass through this hole, so the two of them had to escape towards this hole!

"They are so strong, maybe there is hope of escaping!" the little girl murmured.

She suddenly threw something to Wu Xiaode.

Wu Xiaode took it and took a look, but it was a piece of scale armor as thin as cicada wings.

The scales contained a strange wave of power, which seemed to have some repulsive force on everything around it.

"It can protect you from being killed in one blow. Move quickly and have someone cover you. Maybe you can survive!"

The little girl looked at Wu Xiaode expectantly and encouraged him.

"Why give it to me?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"Everyone who can run is good, walk quickly!" the little girl said.

Wu Xiaode felt a little touched.

——It's a pity that the little girl's face is covered with coagulated blood scabs, and it's completely impossible to tell what she looks like.

Don't even know who she is.

But no matter what, just like the little girl said, she already has this armor that looks like a treasure at first sight.

Since there are powerful masked men and mage running in front, why not follow them?

Fight.

Work hard!

Wu Xiaode gritted his teeth, put on the close-fitting scale armor, bent down and picked up a spear from the body of a guard.

The spear was so heavy that it was difficult to lift it, and dragging it along would affect my speed.

——This spear weighs at least three hundred kilograms.

Someone made this spear move?

I originally thought that if I could rush into the cave, at least there would be a weapon behind me to defend myself, but now it seems I can only forget it.

Putting down his spear, Wu Xiaode picked up a short knife——

no!

This knife is also very heavy!

——It affects the speed!

Wu Xiaode gave up the idea of ​​picking up weapons.

During his delay, the masked man had already flown to the corner of the wall and was about to crawl into the hole. The old man followed closely behind him in the Firebird.

Changes occur suddenly.

On the pile of corpses, the giant suddenly raised his head, grinned with ferocious sharp teeth, and said with a ferocious smile:

"Professionals? Your meat must be very chewy."

Wu Xiaode didn't see what was going on at all.

He only saw the giant's big steel-like hand grabbing at the air——

The next moment.

The masked man held it tightly in his hand, put it into his mouth, and chewed it hard.

“It tastes terrible!”

The giant shook his head, stretched out his other hand, and grabbed it casually.

The firebird was immediately swatted away, and the old man was caught entirely. The giant put him in front of his nose, smelled it, and said in a disappointed tone:

"The fear in your heart is too great, and the flesh is sour."

It slapped the old man away with one palm and hit a hard stone wall hundreds of meters away.

The old man spit out a mouthful of blood, waved his scepter, and emitted a ray of light to form a shield——

The giant's single eye suddenly opened wide and stared straight at the old man.

An incredible scene appeared!

A crimson ray flew out from the giant's single eye, penetrated the light-shaped shield, and hit the old man.

The old man didn't even scream. His whole body completely disintegrated, turning into a pool of bright red blood on the wall that continued to flow downwards and gradually dried up.

he died.

——Like a mosquito that has been swatted to death.

The giant snorted, chewing heavily, and turned his head to look at Wu Xiaode with his single eye.

Everything happened in just a few breaths.

The masked man and the old man had just landed in front of the hole in the corner, and Wu Xiaode had just given up on picking up weapons.

Everything was over just as it began.

Wu Xiaode stared blankly at the dazzling scarlet on the stone wall.

——This is such a nonsense!

It seemed like there was only a dead end.

Wu Xiaode gritted his teeth and picked up the scimitar from the ground——

He has no idea what the meaning of this is, but no matter what, in the last moment of his life, he must not look like a coward!
