Skeleton is King

Chapter 157 Baby Mithril
"Xiaogu, have you found anything in the dark water?" In the room at the end of the underground palace, Wei Xun asked Xiaogu on the water.

Two small leg bones and two small bone hands are constantly paddling in the water.Enjoying the power emanating from the dark water comfortably, Xiao Gu felt very happy.It's been too long since I felt this way, if I don't enjoy the truth, I'll be sorry for myself.

"Xun Wang, I feel that there is an extra sense of comfort here." The soul fire in the skull kept flickering, and Xiaogu responded reflexively.

"You bastard, come out immediately." Seeing Xiao Gu swimming around like a fish on the surface of the water, Wei Xun immediately scolded with a smile: "It's better if I let you check it, so I might as well enjoy it inside."

Feeling Wei Xun's anger, Xiaogu immediately recovered from his comfortable state: "Brother, I'm just experiencing it. This really made me experience a difference. There are indeed more in these dark waters." thing."

Squatting down directly, Wei Xun looked at Xiaogu jokingly: "Tell me, what is there in the dark water?"

"I don't know what's more at the moment, but if I soak it for a long time, I should be able to know." The tone was full of seriousness, Xiaogu stretched out his bony fingers and touched his chin.

"You kid is good at fooling around, come out immediately." This time, Wei Xun didn't give Xiaogu any time to react, and Wei Xun directly stretched out his bone hand to pick up the small body.

"Brother, I know what it is." The two calf bones kept kicking, and the little bone shouted quickly: "I know something more, that kind of thing can strengthen the hardness of our bones."

Can strengthen the hardness of our bones?
Putting the small bone on the ground, Wei Xun asked curiously: "What is it, what can strengthen the hardness of our bones?"

"Wait a minute, I don't know what this is called." The bone hand reached into his own skeleton, and after tossing for a while, he said, "It's this kind of thing that stuck to my body when it was soaked just now. "

Looking towards the palm of the ossicle, I saw a pile of silver particulate matter on it.Under the firelight in the room, there were bursts of flickering fluorescent lights.Stretching out his bony hand to touch it, Wei Xun couldn't help being taken aback.

The form of particles has a very clear hardness.Even Wei Xun, who has the strength of the golden skull, can still feel its hardness.What the hell is this, it's silvery white and has such hardness.

silver?
A thought came to his soul, and Wei Xun thought of the metal from his previous life.Point it at the firelight, and the appearance is very different in terms of color and luster.But with his keen perception, he quickly discovered the difference.

After evolving into a golden skull, his perception sensitivity has been greatly improved.Especially the observation of small things has reached the point of meticulousness, which is the case with the matter in his hands now.

In his previous life, he majored in chemistry at the university, and he has in-depth research on various metal substances.The biggest difference between silver metal and other metals lies in the difference in ductility and thermal conductivity.

Second only to gold, silver metal is malleable and can be pressed into sheets and drawn into filaments.One gram of silver can be drawn into a filament 1800 meters long and rolled into a silver sheet with a thickness of 1/100000 mm.

Wei Xun had kept the physical properties of these silver metals in mind.As for chemicals, it's even easier, silver can react with multiple solutions.For example, nitric acid, concentrated sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, etc., these are experiments in chemistry.

But the structure of these particles in the hands now is fundamentally different from that of silver.If the molecular structure of silver metal is square, then the molecular structure of these substances in his hands is round.

Two different molecules create two different substances, and this is why Wei Xun feels that this substance is not silver.Since it is not silver, why is it so strikingly similar to silver?
"King Xun, what is this?" Seeing Wei Xun staring at it but not speaking, the little bone next to him immediately asked: "Is it a powerful thing, it was sticky to my bones just now and I reacted immediately. "

Shaking his head, the flames in Wei Xun's eye sockets kept flickering: "It looks like silver on the surface, but it's not actually. It can be said to exist like silver. But its function is stronger than silver, at least in terms of hardness. It's much stronger."

"Such a powerful thing, isn't that our secret weapon?" Although he didn't understand what Wei Xun said about silver, Xiaogu could hear that it was a very powerful substance.

Our secret weapon?Mithril?

Xiaogu's words immediately reminded Wei Xun of a word - Mithril, a word that appeared in the movie of the previous life.When I looked at the substance on the bone finger again, the more I looked at it, the more I felt it was true.

Mithril, which is a metal in Tolkien's fantasy novels.The appearance is silvery white, stronger than steel but very light.The metal that appeared in the movie "The Lord of the Rings" was very powerful and a synthetic material.

"Mithril, Mithril, is there such a thing in the world?" Thinking of the introduction he had read in his previous life, Wei Xun couldn't help but wonder.You must know that Mithril is an amazing substance in novels.

In the fantasy movie "The Lord of the Rings", the wizard Gandalf once described Mithril to the Fellowship of the Ring team: Mithril, and everyone in the world forced their heads for it.It is malleable as bronze and polished like glass.Dwarves can forge it into a metal that is stronger than steel, yet light as a goose feather.Its beauty is like silver, and its luster will not fade with time.

This passage left a deep impression on Wei Xun's mind at that time, because he himself majored in chemistry.If the world really has this metal, it would be a great contribution to human society.

It's a pity that there was no such metal as mithril in the reality of the previous life, it only existed in movies and novels.It's just that I didn't expect to come to the world of the undead, but I actually encountered it for myself.

It is said that Mithril has an extraordinary affinity with magic.If you know magic, then mithril is an essential element for making magic weapons.This phenomenon is also seen in "The Lord of the Rings", of course, the premise is that one must understand magic.

"Xiao Gu, this time we're posting, we're posting." Excitedly looking at the dark water in front of him, Wei Xun couldn't help laughing and said: "The strength of the entire territory will increase, and it's insignificant to deal with zombies."

Xiaogu didn't understand what was going on from the beginning to the end, he just saw Xun Wang from the beginning to the present laughing wildly.But one thing he was sure of was that the new substance was a great thing.

"Xun Wang, can I go in and soak for a while?" Taking advantage of Wei Xun's happy mood, Xiao Gu asked quickly.

"..."

……

"No. [-], tell me about the process of mutating the dark water." Wei Xun asked after finding No. [-] alone.

"Wang, this matter started two months ago." After hearing Wang's question, No. [-] thought for a while and said, "I was meditating by the edge of the pool, and suddenly I heard a violent 'bang' sound .”

"I thought there was something breaking in, but there was nothing when I saw it, but the dark water in the pool began to bubble continuously. It was as if something was coming out of the bottom of the water, and it couldn't stop gushing. It lasted for a long time It took three days and three nights to slow down, and then it was different when I touched the dark water again."

Explosion?bubble?It lasted for three days and three nights?

No. [-]'s words made Wei Xun deep in thought, trying to figure out why these things happened.The explosion at the bottom of the water then produced Mithril, maybe there is a pit of Mithril at the bottom of the pool?
"Have you gone down to see what's at the bottom of the pool?" Wei Xun asked immediately after clearing his mind.

Shaking his head helplessly, No. [-] patted his head embarrassingly: "My lord, the water of darkness is very deep. When I wanted to go down, a force stopped me when I went down to about two meters deep. No matter we No matter how hard you try, you won’t be able to go down, and if you try hard, you will be rebounded.”

deep water?There is actually a force below the depth of two meters?
Wei Xun himself had seen that pool of dark water with his own eyes, so why didn't he realize how deep it was.But it's okay to think about it, I didn't go down at all, let alone know what's going on below.

"It seems that the source of everything is in myself, and the key is under the dark water." After figuring out the general idea, Wei Xun stood up: "No. [-], after you have dealt with your intelligence team, come with me to the Black Phantom Territory .”

"Yes, King."

Mithril, this completely unexpected metal.I actually let myself meet, I have to say that this is my luck.As the saying goes, if you want to sleep and come with a pillow, this is just the right luck.

"With Mithril, the Skeleton will become a tough little strong. With Mithril, the Black Warrior will be able to get the most out of it." Wei Xun was a little excited as the effects that Mithril could produce emerged in his soul. .

……

In the green forest, the central location.

"Chief, do we just leave it like this?" A zombie asked the chief on the rattan chair with a face full of displeasure.

"Corpse chief, you should change your irritable temper, and tell you how many times you have to hold your breath before you can think clearly." The chief on the wicker chair was very calm, and his eyes were very indifferent: "I don't know if the legend is true, we can't rush Do it."

"Chief, that legend is just a legend. Who knows if it is true, our race has suffered such a big loss now. If those black warriors are not wiped out, our zombies will be laughed at in the undead world in the future." Known as the corpse leader The zombie said with a cold snort.

"Well, since it's a legend, there must be traces to follow." The wrinkled head raised his head and looked towards the southwest, and he said after a long time: "Wait a little longer, we can't take risks lightly."
