Chapter 72: Roundabout Breakthrough
By the time Bright walked up the stairs to the first floor of the tomb hall, the battle was over.
The Papal Knights and the undead here were all killed.
Wizards are using undead summoning spells, summoning new undead to replenish the number here, including the slain Papal Knights. In the effect of a certain wizard's master-level camouflage Dafa, as long as you don't directly attack these disguised papal knights, you can barely see the difference between them from their appearance.
All traces of the battle were erased, and the wizard who blocked the tomb to prevent the leakage of magical energy retreated, and then slowly flew towards the entrance to the second floor.
There are no papal knights to defend the tomb, but a large number of magic traps and detection spells are placed, especially on the right path, it is simply a trap in five steps and a magic guard in ten steps.
In order not to be noticed by the nearby papal knights, the wizards acted very cautiously.
Little by little, they carefully searched for traps in front of each step, and then they had to be extremely careful to avoid the many magical guards such as the True Eye.
When it comes to the next chamber, the party repeats the raid the first time.
Now Lucas is in control, and then the wizard follows up to block the magic spill in the battle, and finally clears the field to find the Papal Knights, and forcibly kills them under the cover of Lucas.
The whole process was completed in more than ten seconds, and no sound leaked out, and no magic energy fluctuations flowed out.
In this way, the wizard infiltrated the team step by step, cautiously when walking, and swift when fighting.
A burial chamber by burial chamber breakthrough, and then reached the entrance to the second floor.
The overall structural layout of the second floor and the first floor have not changed much, only the direction and location of the expansion of the tomb have not been copied on the first floor, and the area of the entire second-floor cemetery is much larger than that of the first floor.
Of course, the monsters also got stronger.
But for the wizard team led by Lucas, these changes did not have much impact, and their strength was still crushing.
During a high-speed raid, the wizards took a foothold in the tomb hall on the second floor, and then slowly sneaked all the way to the tomb above Will's head.
However, at this very moment, the magic sentry set up by the wizards outside showed a convoy of undead approaching.
Da Liang said to Lucas, "It should be the supplies brought by the City of Sighs and the newly recruited heroes, who will be here to take Will's orders and go to various parts of Eternal Night City to organize armies to occupy the land.
If they enter the underground cemetery, they should quickly discover the camouflage we have laid all the way. ”
Lucas sensed the position and speed of the convoy through the magic guards, and the team did not accelerate or panic, which means that they have not found anything now. Now that they're still some time away from entering the Underground Cemetery, the wizards will need to hurry up if they want to catch Will before they spot the anomaly and raise the alarm.
Lucas asked Da Liang to take out the map again, pointed to the path on it and said, "The tomb we are going to now is not in the direction of the entrance to the third floor, and the tomb we walked through just now has very few magic traps and magic guards in it, so we can speed up and pass through these tombs."
In addition, we can not go directly to the burial chamber, if we go to this burial chamber first, and then by opening up the soil layer between the two burial chambers, we can save a lot of walking and save as much time as possible. ”
Da Liang followed Lucas's point to find the burial chamber he said, there was a layer of soil about five meters between this burial chamber and the burial chamber on Will's head, if you could go directly to it, it would really save a lot of time on the road.
Of course, the risk will also increase, because when you open the tomb, it will inevitably slow down the speed of the raid, giving the innocent papal knights in the tomb time to react. However, if you follow the safe road, you will definitely not be able to launch a surprise attack on Will before the alarm departs.
There is no better way, so we can only take this risky move and try our luck.
Da Liang said: "I can only go like this, I will ask my people to be ready, and we will launch a surprise attack on Will as soon as we arrive at the location." ”
The alarm, which could be triggered at any moment, caused the previously steady wizards to change their strategy and direction, and they increased the speed of their march and broke through to the newly selected tomb.
As Lucas had judged, since this was no longer the road leading to the third floor, the vigilance here had dropped a lot. So even though the wizards sped up their march, they didn't cause any fluctuations, and the team moved silently, and then, after a raid, took control of the burial chamber that was used to penetrate the walls too much.
Lucas placed his hands on the wall of the tomb, and according to the bright map, there was another burial chamber after five meters of soil.
There should be a papal knight stationed inside.
When the tomb wall was opened, how to prevent the papal knights from sounding the alarm was the difficulty of this raid. Diagonally below that location is where Will is, and any movement may be detected by Will.
So Lucas was ready to get his hands dirty this time.
Lucas slowly poured his magic into the tomb wall, trying his best to reduce the fluctuation of the magic to prevent the vigilance of the papal knights on the other side.
A veteran level 16 hero, Lucas, who has comprehended law-level earth magic, is extremely skilled in controlling the earth element. There was not a trace of magic outflow in the whole process of magic preparation, all of which was contained in the path he was preparing to open, and even in the gloomy tomb, there was no light that the earth elemental should have when it gathered.
The spell is ready......
Release!
The originally hard soil walls instantly turned into soft fine sand, and a passage with a diameter of half a meter at an oblique angle connected the two burial chambers. Before the sand could roll down, Lucas's body suddenly accelerated and burrowed into the sand.
In the tomb on the other side, a papal knight and a group of mummies stand in the darkness.
Eerie and quiet.
But at that moment, a large amount of sand poured in from a wall without warning.
Someone's unleashing magic!
The sudden anomaly made the Papal Knight prepare to raise the alarm, but at this time, a dark shadow came out of the fine sand, and then the Papal Knight flickered and found himself standing in a half-collapsed tomb, which was definitely not the one he was supposed to be in.
Where is this? What happened?
Lucas's expulsion skill can already expel hero units across planes, and heroes below class level 14 will be expelled to the specified plane; Tier 14 heroes are randomly banished to other planes; Class 15 will be banished to a random location on the plane; Heroes above tier 15 have a knockback effect.
When Lucas saw this papal knight through the sand, he recognized at a glance that he was definitely not a hero above the 15th rank. Therefore, in order to save time and unnecessary trouble, he did not kill the papal knight, but expelled him to a random place in the middle of nowhere.
Thin sand flowed in along the sloping passage, and the wizard and the big light came out of the passage one by one.
