The head of the white bear mercenary is very regretful now, but this feeling of regret lasted less than 20 seconds, and then he was attracted by the huge pyramid altar in front of him, which is obviously a landmark building in the ruins. ￠￡,
Those thieves who rushed here must have known that this place had huge value items, otherwise they would not have needed to work so hard, but the mercenary leader didn't understand why the other party was so familiar with this place, their white bear mercenary group occupied This place has been in this place for so long, and they have not been able to explore the inner circle of the footprints, but these people can simply avoid the group of monsters, and there is no battle at all along the way.
And the last time they only explored the periphery of the ruins, they encountered several battles and suffered heavy losses.
"There must be something very precious in this building." The mercenary leader had a stern expression on his face: "Lock, you continue to track them, and you must not let them take the things away."
At this time, Upple, who was observing the surroundings, came over and said, "Father, the light elements here are very strong, and I feel something is wrong. Maybe there will be very powerful monsters in that building."
"The more this is the case, it means that the things inside are very valuable." The mercenary captain took a deep breath, his face full of greed and excitement: "Let's go in, kill those intruders, and Search this building again, I don't believe we can't find a better ancient relic this time."
Upple felt that his father was a little too excited, but he just frowned and didn't try to persuade him any more. Because my father is the head of the regiment after all, if his orders are questioned too much, it will cause a decline in prestige. As a son, Upple felt that if he had to maintain his father's reputation in the mercenary group, if something happened to him, it would be a big deal for him to put in more effort. After all, spellcasters could do a lot of things. Especially in terms of combat rhythm control.
The white bear mercenary leader waved his hand and pointed to the dark entrance of the pyramid altar. Locke, as a scout, naturally took the lead. He entered the altar lightly, and saw that the inside was too dark, and not far ahead, there seemed to be strips of white fluorescent objects slowly twisting.
He has no special darkvision abilities. Things farther away could not be seen clearly. In an unknown place, the most taboo was to rush forward without knowing the reality. He lit the torch he was carrying on his body, and then saw several white streaks more than ten meters ahead. The big worm was eating some strange minced meat, and then he clearly saw a worm chewing half of a piece of white meat.
Are they eating the corpses of their own kind? The green hat Locke quickly saw what the bugs were chewing on, and when he was wondering, the bugs seemed to feel the light. All will twist their bodies, facing Locke, swinging from side to side for less than two seconds, then arched their bodies, ejected from the ground like a spring, and flew directly to Locke's face.
Fortunately, Locke reacted very quickly, and he ran back as fast as he could, and the ejection of those bugs was more than four meters away. And it's fast, curling up when it hits the ground. It rolled twice like a wheel, and then ejected with force. At the same time, there was a disgusting hissing sound from the mouthparts full of sharp teeth.
Locke is a scout, and his combat effectiveness is not too strong. A dozen bugs don't sound like much. But when attacking a target at the same time, it will give people the illusion of rushing over. He was so frightened that his little heart was beating wildly, and holding the torch, he ran even faster, and just ran out of the gate. Seeing his friendly army, he shouted: "Commander, there are many bugs behind."
The mercenary leader rushed over immediately, and the others followed closely behind. Three of the dozen or so bugs were shot in mid-air, and flew back backwards. When the other bugs were about to land, the mercenary leader swung a huge hammer, and with a sweep, seven bugs were smashed to pieces and flew to one side, while the other bugs were dismembered by the other leader. Count off.
The mercenary captain looked at the white bugs on the ground, and asked, "Lock, what's going on inside."
"As soon as I went in, I saw these insects were eating their own kind, and then they found me and chased me."
"The corpse of the bug?" The mercenary leader thought for a while, and said, "Those uninvited thieves in front must have confronted these strange things. Since they can kill these bugs, so can we. Do your best Prepare for battle, let's attack in, Upple, do your lighting magic, and be responsible for assisting us in the battle at the same time."
"Okay, father."
Upple nodded, and with a wave of his hand, several balls of light with soft light appeared around the crowd. The mercenary leader wiped his face, and was the first to walk into the altar with a hammer in his hand. Then went in Upur, followed by everyone. Because of the light technique, as soon as they entered inside, they illuminated a large area of the empty hall on the first floor of the altar, and then there was a sound of brushing around, looking from the light to the dark, usually They couldn't see anything, so they didn't see it at all. There were a lot of bugs squirming in their direction nearby, but they could hear the creepy swishing sound of the bugs moving.
Although the members of the White Bear Mercenary Corps have combat experience, they don't know the living habits of these insect-type monsters, so naturally they don't know that these insects have phototaxis, and they will go crazy when they see a bright light source.
Liang Lidong and the others didn't know that a group of mercenaries were chasing after them. They were sleeping soundly in the only safe spot in the pyramid. About three hours later, they almost woke up at the same time. Generally speaking, three hours of rest is not enough for people, but these people are professionals, so naturally there is no big problem, three hours is enough for them to recover a lot of energy.
After everyone woke up one by one, Liang Lidong waved the tents and put them back into the backpack one by one, and continued to go up with Katerina and others.
Katerina stood at the entrance of the stairs and paused for a while. She seemed to vaguely hear a sound from below the floor, but after thinking about it for a while, she thought it might be the sound of a fight between bugs, so she didn't pay much attention to it, and then keep going up.
The higher you go, the stronger the worm's strength is, and at this time the role of the front arrow array is reflected. Katerina walked in the front, followed by two subordinates, followed by three in a triangle shape, and Liang Lidong was at the end.
As soon as they encountered the bugs, the two rogues on the left and right flanks at the end fired a salvo with their hand crossbows. This round of salvo can usually kill two or three bugs, because Liang Lidong and others did not use light sources and walked entirely by their own eyesight, so the bugs they provoked were not many, usually two or three, just waiting Two rogues can get the job done with one round of shooting.
Even if there are occasional fish that slip through the net, it doesn't matter too much. It is very easy for Katerina and the two rogues behind her to deal with a bug. The three of them rushed forward at the same time, and after seeing a dazzling burst of metal afterglow, the bug attacked by them would turn into a monster. It fell to the ground in several pieces.
Although the journey was very easy, it took them about three hours to climb the dozens of stairs. On the penultimate floor, the insects they encountered were generally more than three meters long. At this time, the small dagger in the assassin's hand was no longer very lethal, after all, the dagger was short. And the bugs are too big, they can be counted as stabbing bugs, and they can also cause fatal damage.
But after all, they are professionals. Although there is no way to kill the bugs with one blow, it is not too difficult to kill a bug with a few more stabs.
Now they are at the top of the stairs on the penultimate floor, on the ceiling five meters above their heads. There were heavy vibrations from time to time, and Katerina looked up. Can't help but said: "It sounds like a big guy, our weapons are daggers and hand crossbows, it's not convenient to deal with big guys."
Liang Lidong took out several long swords and scimitars from the space backpack, threw them beside them, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I have prepared for it."
Catalina chose a machete. She smiled and said: "It turns out that Lord Beta has already considered everything. It is really comfortable to cooperate with someone like you."
"To each other!" Liang Lidong took out a few scrolls from his space backpack, and added state magic to himself and others to increase their physical strength. Then take it up and go up: "This is the last floor, as long as we kill the fat bug on it, we can go home happily."
So everyone followed the stairs and appeared on the top floor of the altar.
The topmost floor is a large platform. In the middle of the platform, there is a stone table for ceremonies. On the stone table is a container that looks like the mouth of a well. The container emits a soft light.
And next to this window, there is a very large and long-lasting worm. It is about seven meters long and about 1.5 meters tall.
When Liang Lidong and the others saw the big bug, they couldn't help swallowing their saliva.
Katerina said angrily: "Your Excellency Beta, didn't you say that the worms on it should be only four meters long? This figure is much more exaggerated than what you described."
Liang Lidong was also a little embarrassed, and then he took a closer look at the worm, and was a little surprised, this worm was very similar to the one they dealt with in the game, because there was a scar on the right eye of this worm, which he used a long made by the sword.
He remembered that this worm should have died. After all, according to Griton, people or things that die in the game will die in the same way after a period of time in reality, but this worm Not only is he still alive, but his body has actually grown by about three meters.
Seeing Liang Lidong and the others, the bug straightened up half of its body, and then began to gather bright light from its mouth.
Get out of the way!
Liang Lidong shouted, then jumped to the side. After all, they were assassins. Katerina and her subordinates reacted quickly and made the same move. Less than half a second after they jumped away, a pure white ray shone on the place where they were just now. Then there was a loud noise, and the three-meter-thick stone slab on the top of the pyramid was blasted into a big hole by the attack.
What a powerful attack! Stronger than before.
Liang Lidong's body was still in the air, he was amazed for a moment, then took out a copper coin from the space backpack, and ejected it with his thumb.
The bronze-colored beam-shaped energy attack hit Zaozi's body, and was actually bounced away. Then Liang Lidong, who landed on the ground, found that there was a faint white light film on Chongzi's body, because his attack had ripples.渏.
Bright magic enchantment? Warcraft actually know this kind of advanced defensive magic
Liang Lidong felt a little unbelievable.
At this time, the people who assassinated the union also adjusted their centers of gravity in midair and landed on the ground. As soon as the two wanderers landed, they shot the bug's eyes quickly with their hand crossbows. As a result, the crossbow bolts were thrown aside as soon as they hit the bug's eyes.
The eyes are actually protected by the magic of the enchantment of light
Because the vital parts were attacked, although it did not cause any real damage, the bug was obviously enraged. It opened its mouth wide, revealing densely packed teeth, and rushed towards one of the rogues. Because the bug's body is too big, it is impossible for it to launch a ejection attack, but its moving speed is not slow, and it makes a huge vibration when running, as terrifying as a Type 59 tank going down the mountain.
But the speed of the wanderer is faster, the person who was chased by the bug turned around and ran, the bug chased a few steps, but found that it couldn't catch up, stopped in place for a while, then opened its mouth, and a white ray sprayed out , when he was about to hit the wanderer in front of him, the latter squatted down and used a sliding shovel to slide on the ground for a few meters to avoid the attack, then got up at an extremely fast speed and continued to run.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Katerina and the other two assassins escaped into the shadows and appeared beside Chongzi like ghosts. The long thorns in the hands of the three stabbed Chongzi's body with all their strength, but unfortunately the long sword was caught by Chongzi's side. The white light film bounced to the side.
The front half of the bug didn't move, but the back half of its body suddenly swung towards Katerina, because it felt that Katarina was the biggest threat to it at this time.
"Physical attacks are useless."
Katerina turned into a shadow to escape the bug's attack when Qian Jun shot, and she shouted: "Your Excellency Beta, find a way."
After Liang Lidong closed his eyes and thought for a second, he shouted: "This bug is much stronger than us, and it is impossible to kill it. You drag it first, and when I find a chance to put the Guangming Well water into the space backpack , you immediately jump under the altar, I have a way to prevent you from falling to your death."
"It's a few hundred meters high, so it's no wonder that you can't die if you jump down."
"I have a levitation scroll!" Liang Lidong shouted as he ran to the location of Guangming Well, "There are enough scrolls, and you will never die."
Hearing this, Katerina gritted her teeth: "Fight it, the others will attack this fat worm with all their strength, attract its attention, and create opportunities for Your Excellency Beta while ensuring their own lives."
As soon as the order was issued, the two rogues pulled out two handle crossbows at the same time, and then the crossbow bolts rained down on the big bug's eyes. (… )
