This kind of big bug with faint white fluorescence has no eyesight at all, but has an extremely exaggerated sense of smell, hearing, and the ability to feel slight vibrations. It swings left and right like this now, but it is actually looking for the enemy's position. As long as it confirms the position for a while, it will rush to attack the enemy.
When Liang Lidong was looking for bright well water for Dana, he had dealt with this kind of thing for a few days, and he was very familiar with its behavior characteristics. Seeing this, he immediately took out a copper coin from the space backpack, put it in his hand, and then Flick forward with your thumb.
Coin bombardment!
The bronze-colored, lightning-like energy attack hit the swinging big insect at an extremely fast speed, tearing it into pieces in an instant... The white and slurry sprayed in a fan shape, splashing all over the place. It's all over the place.
Because the coin bombarded with a flash of intense light, the eyes of everyone except Liang Lidong were flickered. When Katerina and the others regained their vision, Liang Lidong had already walked up to the dead bug and used his sword Jian picked up a piece of gravel emitting white fluorescent light, and put it into his space backpack.
"The magic beast crystal nucleus of the light department can be used as alchemy materials. After returning these trophies, we will estimate the price. I will take three points, and you guys will take seven points in total. Do you have any opinions?"
Katerina smiled: "Of course there is no problem."
In her opinion, as an employer, Red Priest Beta, let alone three points, even taking five points of the profit is normal, but since the employer generously gave up part of the profits, she has no reason to refuse. Although the Assassin's Guild has recently acquired several blacksmith shops and a profit share from the gold mine, the money alone is not enough to make the Assassin's Branch in Winterwind City flourish. The more extra profits the better, so she can The more confidence you have in building your club into a strong club.
Therefore, she felt more and more that the red priest was a very good person, and it was very comfortable to get along with such a person.
Liang Lidong didn't know what Katerina was thinking. He looked around and said, "The movement just now attracted a lot of insects. Let's leave here and try to walk as lightly as possible. This pyramid altar is very high. We have to minimize the frequency of fighting, otherwise we won't have enough energy to get to the top."
Everyone in the Assassin's Guild naturally nodded in agreement, and they were originally assassins. Silent action is already an instinct.
The only one among the crowd who doesn't know how to move silently is Liang Lidong, so he used the magic of driving fog. Because insects have no vision, the effect of reducing the field of view of magic driving fog does not have any effect, but the accompanying 'silent movement' and Effect that increases movement speed. In this environment, it is still a very practical ability.
Katerina had already seen the ability of 'fog driving' magic once, so she behaved normally in the dense fog, but it was the first time for the other five people to see such a strange ability. They looked at Liang Lidong's expression, as if It's weird, both admiration and surprise.
Because the magic of driving fog has the ability to detect the surrounding enemies, Liang Lidong and others avoided many bugs and went up to the thirteenth floor in one go, which is where it started. The bodies of the bugs are already more than one meter long. They are stronger and more sensitive. Even with the help of fog driving magic, they can't avoid the enemy very effectively. Therefore, from this time on, their battles have gradually increased stand up.
But until now, the combat power of the worms is not too strong, under the bombardment of Liang Lidong's coins and the attack of the killer union. Each bug can cause damage to them. Along the way, Liang Lidong has picked up about 30 crystal nuclei of the light system, and the closer to the upper layer, the bigger the crystal nuclei.
"Why are the bugs more powerful on the upper floor? What's on it?" Katerina walked. While swinging her own dagger, it was stained with the white mucus of bugs, which seemed quite disgusting to her.
Although Katerina is a professional, hating big bugs is still the instinct of most women, and she is no exception.
Now that he was on the way, Liang Lidong didn't intend to hide his mission purpose anymore. He said: "On the top floor of this altar, there is a well of water. In fact, it is not appropriate to call it well water. People just call it light well water based on the shape of the container at that place, but it is actually the tear of the goddess of light."
Hearing this, everyone in the Assassin's Guild looked at Liang Lidong in surprise. After all, the name "Tears of the Goddess of Light" is too 'extraordinary', and it sounds like an excellent thing.
"The Tears of the Goddess of Light is a rare item, and it is also very practical, but it is only compared to professionals of the Light Department, such as paladins, or priests of the Goddess of Light." Liang Lidong said as he walked forward: "But For other people, this thing has no effect. At most, it can treat minor ailments such as insomnia."
Katerina smiled and said, "So you plan to bring back water from the bright well?"
"Yes, I have a friend who is now a paladin, she needs this thing?"
"Her?" Katerina said with a gossipy smile, "Tina? As far as I know, there is only one female paladin in Winterwind City, and that is Tina?"
Liang Lidong nodded, and generously admitted: "Yes, it's her."
"When did you become a couple?" Katerina and Tina have a good relationship, so she was quite curious: "It surprised me that Tina suddenly became a paladin, but I didn't even think about it. You can actually take that so-called bright well water for her, regardless of the danger! If I had known that you took it for her, I would not have charged you."
"One thing for one thing." Liang Lidong said: "Besides, the real purpose of my coming here is to collect luminous mushrooms, and helping Tina to collect light well water is just following the trend."
"Yes, yes, I understand!" Katerina said with a clear expression on her face, "But what does the bright well water have to do with these bugs getting stronger?"
"The bright well water emits light element fluctuations all the time. The bugs at the top will be affected more and more severely."
While the two were talking, they went up to another level. The bugs encountered at this time are already about one and a half meters long. Their attack methods are no longer just ejection attacks and bite attacks. Extremely fast magic skills.
The few people gradually began to feel difficult to deal with these bugs, and Katerina was no longer in the mood to gossip. Seeing this, Liang Lidong took out a few magic scrolls from the space backpack and tore them open. Several faint rays of light of different colors enveloped several of them. Moreover, they immediately felt that their fatigue was cleared up, and their skills became much better.
'Great strength technique', 'enhance physical fitness'. Auxiliary magic such as 'Light Spirit Art' has been added to them, which can not only reduce their fatigue, but also strengthen their own strength in a short period of time.
The reason why Liang Lidong didn't use these magics at the beginning is because these magics are time-sensitive. At the lower level. The big bugs are not strong, and everyone can easily deal with them. Naturally, they don't need the help of auxiliary magic, but now that everyone is starting to feel difficult, it is naturally time for the magic scroll to come in handy.
Because of the help of auxiliary magic. Everyone's pressure was greatly reduced, and then they climbed all the way to the upper floors, and at the same time easily slashed and killed the bugs all the way. When they reached the twentieth floor, Liang Lidong suddenly said: "The luminous mushrooms I need are on this floor, don't worry Go up, you follow me."
Liang Lidong took the lead and led the crowd to another direction in another passage. There seemed to be no big bugs on this floor, after walking left and right for a few minutes. He suddenly dissipated the magic of driving fog, and slowly walked to a stone door against the wall, gently pushed the door open, and threw a scroll in through the crack of the door.
Then an astonishing light shone from the crack of the door, and at the same time, several shrill female screams came from inside. These sounds hurt the eardrums of everyone in the Assassin's Guild, but fortunately, the sounds disappeared after a short time. Liang Lidong opened the door and walked in, followed by Katerina and the others.
This is a large stone room, very empty, only in the innermost side of the stone room. On a large white stone platform, lay four female bodies that were already mummified. And on the bodies of these four corpses, there are many shimmering mushrooms!
"This is the luminous mushroom?" Katerina looked at the things in front of her, a little surprised: "It actually grows on the corpse?"
"If my knowledge is correct. These women are all slaves who have been sacrificed. Although everyone in the Zuze Kingdom worships the Goddess of Light, young lives are sacrificed for no reason, which will eventually cause resentment. What you heard just now The screams are the banshees formed by these souls, because they have been wandering in the dark for many years, they have become completely unable to touch the light. So just a simple flash can kill them."
"Luminous mushroom is a dual product of light and resentment. It uses corpses as soil, and after grinding it into powder, it can be used as a special magic material."
"It's kind of disgusting." Katerina said lightly.
Liang Lidong smiled and said: "There are even more disgusting things. After you hear about them, even if you think these things are disgusting, you will eat them."
"Why?" Katerina said with a look of disbelief: "I will never eat these things. I won't eat them to death."
Liang Lidong said indifferently: "Don't talk too much, the luminous mushroom is a very rare special fungus, and its growth conditions are very harsh. It has inherited the dual power of light and resentment, which can be said to be a powerful spiritual force." The product of birth, if you eat a certain amount of luminous mushrooms, you can strengthen your spiritual power and even modify your spiritual growth potential."
"Really?" Katerina looked at Liang Lidong with a bright face. The same goes for everyone else.
Liang Lidong smiled: "Never lie."
Katerina rushed to the stone bed first, followed by the other five people. They grabbed a luminous mushroom, stuffed it into their mouths with their eyes closed, and swallowed it in two or three mouthfuls, without wanting to taste it at all. Normal people would not want to taste this thing, after all, it grows from a corpse. For the sake of one's own strength, swallowing the stomach is the last line. As for the taste, that is something only neuropathy will do.
Liang Lidong walked slowly to the stone bed, cut off a few bunches of luminous mushrooms with his long sword, and put them into his backpack. At this time, Katerina and the others had already eaten a lot of luminous mushrooms, and they had begun to take effect. They covered their heads with their hands, looking in pain. Liang Lidong smiled when he saw this, then walked to the door, from the space He took out a handful of light crystal cores from his backpack and sprinkled them at the door.
Although there were not many big white bugs on this floor, just in case, he did some small tricks to prevent those bugs from coming here.
The crystal nuclei of the light system were picked up from those bugs just now, and they still have the body odor of bugs. At this time, a pile of crystal nuclei of the light system is piled up at the door. Thinking that there is a similar one resting there, it will crawl away and not pass here.
And Liang Lidong returned to the center of the stone room. He looked at the six members of the Assassin's Guild who were screaming in pain, smiled, took out the pots and pans from the space backpack, and started cooking.
He put the venison that was not finished at noon in the space backpack, which came in handy at this time. After he finished a few meat dishes, the pain of Katerina and the others was over, and each of them was wet, as if they had just been fished out of the water.
Katerina sniffed it, and smiled wryly, "Your Excellency, these luminous mushrooms are indeed useful, but you didn't tell us that eating them would be so painful."
"How can there be gains without some effort." Liang Lidong threw out a few tents while talking: "After eating, we all take a nap and rest. It is already late at night outside, and we have to rest. Otherwise, even if you reach the top floor, you will not be able to exert your full combat power when you are tired and thirsty."
"But is such a place too dangerous? We have to find a safer place."
"This is already the safest place in this altar." Liang Lidong sat on the ground, took out chopsticks from his backpack, picked up a piece of venison and ate it: "If you are worried, you can arrange people to take turns Be vigilant, anyway, there is only one entrance here, and you can complete the task by sitting down. But you can solve the vigilance task by yourself, I think this place is very safe, and I will not participate in the vigil."
Katerina looked at Liang Lidong speechless for a while, and then she said helplessly: I'll just listen to you. "
While Liang Lidong and his party were eating delicious food, the White Bear Mercenary Group also arrived at the entrance of the Altar of Light. Looking at this majestic pyramid, they couldn't help feeling how insignificant human beings are.
The head of the mercenary looked at the pyramid and felt a little regretful: "Following these enemies all the way here, I didn't meet a monster on the way. Obviously they are very familiar with this place. It seems that Duke was indeed wronged. I killed the wrong person." .”(.)
