Chapter 616: The First Floor of the Underground Mausoleum (2-in-1)
In a state of invisibility, Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi talked quietly through the team channel.
"Xiaowen, this Prince Richard's goal is the same as ours, we can sneak into the Great Mausoleum while the seal is opened. Li Shuyi said.
Bai Xiaowen smiled bitterly: "If I can, I don't want to be sideways by this guy." If it weren't for him and Golantis, we would only have to deal with a group of nuns plus the two leaders, Melda and Aunt Rough, and not only would we have the benefit of killing the leader, but we wouldn't have to act so secretly. β
Li Shuyi nodded: "Richard is the fourth prince of the Lionheart Empire, and it is indeed unexpected to personally bring troops here, and there is no way to do it." β
"No, this guy is most likely not the real Prince Richard. Bai Xiaowen then gave insight into the information that the target was in a disguised state, and said to Li Shuyi.
"Is this an impostor?, so who is he pretending to be?" Li Shuyi was slightly surprised, and then suggested, "Let's stand up and expose him." β
"No, this thing can actually deceive Golia, which means that he must have the certificate to prove that he is the fourth prince of the Lionheart Empire. We belong to the opposing camp, the people of the Abbey and Golantis, all of whom hate me to the core, and no one will believe what I say, but will be beaten upside down by the impostor. β
Bai Xiaowen said this, thought carefully for a while, and added: "But it's not all without a chance. This impostor prince looks very strange, and seems to have some special interest in the things sealed by the monastery, and we don't need to expose it, and when he arrives in the Great Mausoleum, his true face will definitely be revealed, and it is very likely that a fierce conflict will break out between the three parties! β
Li Shuyi was very excited, and said with a smile: "The endgame after the civil war of a group of bosses! β
Dean Melda led a group of leader-level powerhouses all the way out of the atrium and headed to the back mountain.
In the mountain behind the monastery, there is a tombstone-shaped tower that is said to be a high tower, but in fact, the above-ground part is more of a carving, like a long lightning rod pointing straight to the sky, the real building, hidden in the ground.
Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi only dared to follow from a distance, and they saw from a distance that Dean Melda was kneeling on the ground and seemed to have prayed for a while.
At the tip of the tower, a soft white light flickered, turning into a circle of light from top to bottom, slowly moving down, and finally landing on the base of the minaret.
In an instant, the entire ground glowed, and the snow around the base of the minaret was blown away by an invisible force, revealing a black-blue rocky ground.
Subsequently, the minaret began to rotate. After a slow rotation, a small door in the base of the minaret opened, revealing a deep, downward spiral staircase entrance.
"This is the entrance to the Great Mausoleum, so let in! Dean Melda said, "What I unlocked was the outer seal of the Great Mausoleum, and the inner seal could only be opened after entering, and someone would help me guard the 'Bright Pass'. β
Prince Richard summoned two guards and ordered them to stand guard at the entrance. Then, a group of leaders rushed in.
Bai Xiaowen's aim at the guards standing guard was an insight.
γFrancis Bothom (Elite Level 8)/Solemn Guard of Honorγ
[Race: Humanoid/Terran]
[Class: Royal Halberd Guard]
[Attributes: Strength 39, Agility 31, Constitution 40, Spirit 22]
[Skill 1: Solemn Honor Guard: For each Royal Halberd Guard ally (including yourself) around, HP will be increased by 10%, up to 100% of the original maximum HP.] γ
[Skill 2: Support: Omitted.] γ
[Skill 3: Halberd Thrust: With a shot speed equivalent to double agility, stab the halberd extremely fast. If the target's armor is less than the attacker's total attack damage, the halberd will pierce through the longer damage and inflict Bleed. Enemies that are hit and pierced by two or more Halberd Thrust skills at the same time will take an additional imprisoning effect. γ
[Skill 4: Lionheart's Royal Majesty Lv2: Health is increased by an additional 200 points.] γ
"Royal Halberd Guard...... The attributes are relatively balanced, except for the slightly lower spirit, the strength, sensitivity, and body appearance are almost the same. This kind of elite creature focuses on numerical superiority, and once there are more than 10 royal halberd guards forming an encirclement, it is difficult for a leader-level powerhouse to retreat with his whole body. β
Bai Xiaowen analyzed it for a while, and finally concluded: "There are only two royal halberd guards standing in front of us, and the threat is non-existent. We struck as quickly as we could, and we took them out in a controlled time! lest they have any warning means. β
Li Shuyi nodded. She crept around five meters to the flanks of the two royal halberd-wielding guards, closing in on the melee range.
Bai Xiaowen bent his fingers, three, two, one, when there was only one vertical finger left, the deterrence skill was activated!
Li Shuyi broke away from the stealth state, strode forward, and stabbed a royal halberd guard with a sword! The man who fell into a state of fear did not even dodge, and was stabbed by a sword, and blood shot out.
Out of some concerns, Bai Xiaowen did not summon the new creature Dementor Banshee Delifa, but instead sent four skeleton sword and shield bearers to cooperate with the butcher to descend from the sky and launch a fierce attack on the injured royal halberd guard.
Although the opponent has 720 HP, the armor becomes brittle when the armor is drastically reduced, and the HP drops like an avalanche. The combined shield strikes of the skeleton sword and shield men made it impossible for him to make any warning gestures at all.
In just three seconds, the first royal halberd guard fell to the ground, and at this time, the other halberd guard was still in a state of fear and did not recover!
Bai Xiaowen snapped his hand, the spell switched-the bewildering spell was thrown out, and the second wave of attacks began.
The halberd guard was directly sent into a state of dizziness from a state of fear, and under the siege of Li Shuyi and the summoned creatures, his health was also quickly emptied and he fell to the ground.
A silver chest, condensed from above the corpse of the second halberd guard.
Opening the treasure chest, the only chance to draw it, Li Shuyi drew a blue weapon: the Guardian Halberd, the attack power of this equipment is quite considerable, and it is also the modifier of "bound after equipment", which has a certain transaction value.
Neither of them had time to appreciate the blue halberd, so they casually put it into the storage space, and rushed directly into the rotating descending stairs of the Great Mausoleum.
Rushing out of the staircase exit, Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi let out a "huh" and shivered at the same time!
Spiritual rule prompts;
"You've come to the basement of the Great Mausoleum. You are affected by the lingering effects of Yin Qi. Your health, mental strength, and stamina regeneration rate is greatly reduced. β
"Yin Qi Lingers ......"
Bai Xiaowen recalled, "This feeling is very familiar, in the Necromantic Lake Treasure Land space, there is a similar area where yin qi lingers, but I didn't expect the Great Mausoleum to be the same." It seems that a considerable part of the difficulty of the Great Mausoleum comes from the harsh environment. β
"However, last time in the Lake of the Necromancy, your undead species summoned creatures didn't seem to be affected by the effect of the lingering Yin Qi. Li Shuyi reminded.
Bai Xiaowen nodded, and he summoned the butcher again.
The butcher had just been rotting for a few seconds while fighting, and his health had not yet been fully restored. At this time, under the effect of Yin Qi, its health value actually accelerated its recovery, and its ignorant and ugly face actually showed a trace of "laughing" expression, and it also made some kind of succulent snort.
"Well, that's right. With the exception of Fury Claw, all of my other minions should be affected by the positive bonus effect of Yin energy. This is a great advantage. Bai Xiaowen said.
"This is your home turf," Li Shuyi said with a smile, "I'm going to try to avoid unnecessary fights." β
"That's right, keep your physical strength in shape, and wait for key team battles. β
Bai Xiaowen waved his hand directly, summoning four skeleton sword and shield hands, the shadow assassin and the skeleton warrior and Kitz. He thought about it for a moment, and summoned the Bone Sorcerer again.
In this kind of place, the Bone Demon Sorcerer doesn't have to worry about the lack of mental power at all, and the cooldown time of the Lightning Strike Dao Technique can be used as soon as it arrives, which can be described as a turret with unlimited firepower, and the best thing is that there is also a special effect for destroying evil spirits.
Although he has certain advantages, Bai Xiaowen is not blindly optimistic. He had already discovered that the underground floor of the Great Mausoleum had a somewhat complicated architectural structure, and for example, the square underground tomb they had just walked down the stairs and came to was an example, and there were portals on the opposite side, on the left and right walls, and it was a little difficult to take which way to go.
"There are a lot of leader-level powerhouses on the other side, and the most important thing is that Melda is here, they know the way! We only know that they are going to the 'Bright Pass' now, but I don't know where this place is. Bai Xiaowen was not blindly optimistic just because this was his home turf.
"We can follow the traces of their battles all the way forward. They have to kill the undead monsters in the Great Mausoleum before they can move on, just find the corpses of the undead monsters. Li Shuyi said.
"That's really the way to do it. β
Bai Xiaowen nodded slightly. By the pale light of the glowing moss that grew on the walls of the burial chamber, he looked around.
The chamber was empty, and there were no monster corpses except for a few half-lifted old stone coffins.
There are no traces of a fight in the tomb, and the strangest thing is that there are no footprints of Melda and his party, and Bai Xiaowen's tracing skills comparable to Sherlock Holmes are also impossible to use.
"There is no tomb in this chamber, we will open a door and look again. β
Bai Xiaowen manipulated the skeleton sword and shield hand to push open a wooden door.
Roar!
A roar rang out, and two skeletons rushed head-on.
The level of these skeleton soldiers is level 7, but in terms of strength, it is much worse than Bai Xiaowen's skeleton sword and shield hand, especially under the control of Bai Xiaowen's one-handed swordsmanship and shield mastery, the strength of the skeleton sword and shield hand can be stronger.
The two wild skeletons were simply vulnerable, but when they died, something strange happened.
Boom, boom!
The air wave exploded, and the two wild skeleton soldiers directly exploded into two cold energy streams, blowing the surrounding dust into scattered and fluttering! Not even a single corpse residue was left.
"I finally understand why there are no bodies in the tomb just now...... Ms. Lee said.
Bai Xiaowen squinted his eyes, looking at the footprints that were smoothed by the air wave of the explosion and re-covered by the flying dust: "I finally understand why there are no traces of a fight." β
"What should I do?" asked Li Shuyi.
"We can only take one step at a time, let's explore in one direction. Bai Xiaowen has a tough mind and does not feel depressed.
He tapped his head lightly with his finger and said with a smile: "Although I don't know the map, every time I take a step forward, the corresponding topographic map will be imprinted in my head." It will take us a little more time to find the Pass of Light, but we will not delay for too long. β
After confirming, the two of them headed all the way to the north.
As they go deeper, the undead monsters they encounter along the way, their strength and templates become stronger and stronger.
Skeleton Archer, Skeleton Mage, Skeleton Warrior......
Ghosts, vampires, zombies......
Most of the monsters have appeared in Bai Xiaowen's Black Soul Stone. Bai Xiaowen manipulated his own army of the undead to fight with it, quite an illusion of mirror combat, of course, this is just an illusion.
The undead army on Bai Xiaowen's side is obviously stronger. In terms of attributes, there is Bai Xiaowen's spiritual power bonus and psychic mentor bonus, which is not weaker than the undead monster opposite, but at the skill level, it is a summoned creature that has completely devoured the soul of the strong, and it has more powerful skills.
And Bai Xiaowen's combat expertise that has improved by leaps and bounds in recent months has also played an important role. If it weren't for the precipitation and ascension during this time, it would definitely not be so easy for him to break into this mausoleum when he first reached the sixth level.
The increase in strength of the combat specialty is not reflected in the panel, but in the actual combat.
Li Shuyi admired Bai Xiaowen's all-out battle, and she felt that Bai Xiaowen's battle was very artistic. Each minion is like a part of a massive, delicate machine, running efficiently.
The seventh wave of monsters was dominated by the bone clan, and Bai Xiaowen was distracted and manipulated the summoned creatures to deal with it. One of the skeleton swords and shields, a sword stabbed out from a tricky angle, hit an enemy skeleton soldier's throat and shook it back, then took a long (indeed) sideways step with a long eye on the back of his head, dodged the sneak attack of an enemy skeleton soldier behind him, raised his left arm, and set up the iron shield diagonally, and an enemy skeleton warrior's big sword slashed against the iron shield, causing only a negligible shock damage......
At the same time, the enhanced skeleton warrior controlled by Bai Xiaowen was already under the protection of the other two sword and shield hands, raising his sword and accumulating his strength for a short time, taking advantage of the enemy skeleton warrior's chopping action that had not yet been retracted, and it was too late to return to the opportunity to dodge, a sword slashed down angrily, slashing its skull to the ground, and the bones rolled out of the distance.
This is true for Skeleton Blades and Shieldbearers and Skeleton Warriors, and agile creatures like the Shadow Assassins are even more bells and whistles.
Under the control of Bai Xiaowen's advanced level 7 fighting and advanced level 7 one-handed swordsmanship specialty, the shadow assassin wandered in the gap between the opponent's blades, and handed out a knife, quite a kind of martial arts master's "ten thousand flowers have passed, and the leaves do not stick to the body".
The damage is not high, but it is ...... Handsome is done.
