By now, more than twenty skeletons had been played out, and only three of them had survived the fire plasma.
But immediately after, in the second round by Lucia stuffed some kind of strange crystals into their chests.
The ghostly blue flames in the chest and eye sockets instantly turned orange and red, drying out and being burned to a black mass by the flames in the chest and eye sockets.
And now the skeletons around Eric were gone, leaving him alone.
Damn, so conspicuous.
Eric had one eye on the skeleton grill side, not noticing that the skeletons next to him were all scratched up.
He quietly turned his head sideways and walked towards the place where there were more skeletons as if he was wandering mindlessly.
Staying a little longer to see how the other skeletons' barbecue behaved, he might be able to live a little longer.
But just as he moved, he was pinched by two chimeras on the left and right by his shoulder blades.
Damn it, can't move.
Eric suppressed the body that wanted to struggle and pretended to be dumbfounded as he was set up towards Lucia's side.
He mustn't reveal that he has intelligence, otherwise, he will die for sure.
Eric was pressed in front of Lucia, so close to seeing, Lucia is a first-class beauty, her body is also extremely hot, with horns, a tail, and bat wings adding a few points to her mood.
But Eric didn't care how good-looking this chimera was at the moment.
He suppressed his trembling spirit and waited for the flames to strike.
Lucia surveyed Eric for a moment, not caring much, after all, these skeletons seemed to him only instinctive, no different from beasts and bugs.
Her right hand pressed against his smooth skull, followed by her voice in her ear.
"Fire Plasma."
Magic power outlined a magical diagram in the center of her hand, and then, as the magic power continued to pour in, molten flames poured and flowed down his skull.
First to cover every inch of the entire skeleton, as if covering the bones with a film of fire.
This was the first time Eric felt pain since he turned into a skeleton.
The ghostly blue flames in his chest and eye sockets shook and trembled wildly.
His throat uncontrollably made an odd sound, like the sound made by bones constantly rubbing together.
"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ......"
The bones were continuously burned and healed.
The [Fire Resistance] greatly weakened the effects of the fire slurry, allowing him to hold out until it ended.
At this moment, his bones were faintly translucent with a few shades of light red, bubbling with heat, like iron embers that had been burned just right and were about to be forged.
"With such a weak breath, it's surprising that he lasted through the fire slurry."
Lucia surveyed Eric with some surprise.
Then, the two chimeras once again set him up, only this time it wasn't with their hands, but with invisible hands formed by magic power.
The temperature of his bones right now, after all, was not normal.
The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation.
"I hope you can still surprise me."
Lucia took out the crystal, I don't know if it was Eric's illusion, but this one seemed to be a circle larger than the crystals of the three unlucky ones before.
Special treatment? A reward for excellence?
The crystal was precisely shoved into the ghostly blue flame in his chest.
Then, the flames burned fiercely and rose.
In an instant, it dyed the flames in his eyes orange-red as well, and his entire body burned violently like a lit woodpile.
Super painful, compared to this, the fire slurry from before was simply a hot spring.
"Click click click click click!"
The constant sound of shattering rang out, the bones of the entire body were burned and cracked, and the entire skeleton became red.
It was like porcelain in a kiln that had been overly calcined and was about to crumble in the next second.
[Self-heal lv1] kept healing the body that was about to collapse, but it was just a drop in the bucket for the speed at which the skeleton was collapsing.
The fact that it hadn't crumbled to pieces by now was probably all thanks to the [Toughness] [Hard Bones] [Fire Endurance] holding it up.
"Sure enough, it's still not working."
Lucia looked at the skeleton frame that had fallen to the ground and was drowned in flames, revealing a disappointed expression.
This demon was deliberately increasing the dose of the crystals stuffed into his body.
She was stuffing lethal amounts of crystals based on the performance of the individual skeletons in the first round of fire slurry.
She wasn't even trying to make them last, she probably just wanted to collect experimental data on their deaths.
Eric forced himself to endure the pain and opened the panel.
It was in the searing flames that the panel remained clear and received no effect.
"Free attribute point, add physique!"
The last time he upgraded there were still a little bit of attribute points, but he had saved them for a song and didn't use them, just waiting for now.
[Ding, Physique +1]
When adding physique points, it was able to heal a certain degree of injuries.
Like a hot current gushing from the bone marrow, the spread of cracks finally stopped.
Then, [Self-Healing] and constitution points activated their effects at the same time, and the cracks grew a little bit, compensating, resisting the burning of the flames.
Broken, healed, broken, healed.
It was as if a tug-of-war was going on in his skeleton.
The skeleton, on the other hand, was letting out rattling wails in pain.
The first time the might of the flames diminished a little bit, Eric had the liberating feeling of climbing out of hell.
[Ding, Physique +1]
[Gained skill, Fire Magic lv1]
[Unlocked lv1. Optional Profession, Elemental Mage]
[Elemental Mage] [Elemental Mage] A type of magician, driving dangerous elemental magic, master of destruction and devastation.
[Unlocked Evolutionary Path] Low-level Flame Skeleton
[Low-level Flame Skeleton] A special variant of Skeleton, a special Skeleton that has mastered the power of flame, level cap lv2.
The flames were completely collected into the body, and the orange-red flames turned a little bit into a ghostly blue color.
Lucia's face changed from surprise to disappointment.
"Still the transformation failed."
"But surprisingly it made it through, what a lucky guy."
Lucia kicked Eric to the ground and looked at the remaining skeletons.
"Next."
Eric stood up shakily, pretending to be dumbfounded as he continued to wander.
However, the two ghostly blue flames in his eyes flashed a flash of orange and red.
Fire magic gained.
Eric resisted the urge to try the legendary magic and wandered.
Hiding, hunkering down, looking for opportunities.
He had a new undercurrent.
Of all the skeletons, Eric was ultimately the only one to survive the experiment but also failed the transformation.
All of this was not beyond Lucia's expectations; she hadn't felt it would work all at once.
She began scouting the canyon for a new experimental skeleton.
Soon a skeleton filled the experimental field once again.
After the first round of experiments, Eric determined that Lucia had not counted the number of skeletons.
These experimental skeletons that only had instincts and no intelligence were no different from pigs to Lucia.
She wouldn't remember how many pigs she had captured.
Eric locked five skeletons in this batch of skeletons, of which Xi was lv5 and one lv6.
When Lucia went out to collect materials again, leaving only some low-ranked chimera to guard it, Eric quietly touched in front of the locked skeleton.
The palm of his hand pressed down on the skeleton's face.
"Flame!"
Fire magic was unleashed, the ghostly blue flames were unobtrusive in the night, flooding the skeleton's head in an instant, frantically searing the inside of the skull.
The other hand ruthlessly dug into the skeleton's chest, grabbing the flames in the chest and continuously burning it.
[Ding, killed low-level skeleton, experience +5.]
Eric carefully looked around and removed the skeleton's left leg, and then removed his left leg that possessed [Fire Resistance].
However, after removing the [Fire Resistance] left leg, Eric realized that the [Fire Resistance] on his panel did not disappear.
Perhaps it was because he had survived the flames' crazy burning in the first place, allowing himself to gain [Fire Resistance] as well.
Aiming this left leg at the hip joint, he unleashed [Bone Change].
[Ding, gained skill creeping foot lv1]
The subtle sound in the air also disappeared.
Next, Eric disassembled the remaining remains into large and small bone pieces, carefully wrapped them in flames, and burned them a little bit into powder, scattering them on the ground.
When all the bones were disposed of, Eric also felt a wave of mental exhaustion.
"Is magic related to spirit points ......"
Eric was thankful that his spirit points were pretty good and then drifted off to sleep.
