Chapter 63 Flooded Spider Cave!
The blood-covered hall was covered with bones and cobwebs. Today, the Demon King's palace was as gloomy as ever.
Two large lizards stood on either side, one on the left and one on the right, with a crypt spider lying in the middle looking proud and arrogant.
Hearing the footsteps of Lord Demon King, Arakdo immediately stepped forward with eight legs, as docile as a pug.
Mixi was trembling on the ground.
She first finished the long opening remarks in a protracted tone, and then expressed Queen Sissi's greetings to the necropolis and the Demon King himself.
Honestly, she suspected that the Demon King was not listening at all.
Because she accidentally burped nervously in the middle of the conversation, but the adult didn't notice it.
If the same thing happened to Lady Sissi, it would usually be the latter who was really hypnotized by their chirpy reports.
Normally at this time, she and Yossi would quietly slow down their speech in tacit agreement.
If they were not reprimanded or urged by Her Majesty the Queen, they would simply stop and be lazy, secretly admiring Sissi's lovely sleeping appearance, until the latter woke up with a confused look on her face, then buried her head and added loudly, "Report completed."
This is the end of the report.
She had tried this fish-catching trick many times. Because Sissi was embarrassed to admit that she was asleep, she would even praise them in a pretentious manner.
However, facing the Demon King at this moment, Missy did not dare to slack off in the slightest, let alone test whether he was asleep.
The aura that that guy exudes is simply terrifying!
And I don’t know if it’s her imagination, but she always feels like there are more skeleton soldiers making disgusting sounds?
Just when she was thinking wildly, a majestic cough suddenly came from above her head.
Missy was suddenly startled, and then she realized that she was distracted and had no memory of what she had just said, so she quickly crouched on the ground in fear.
"Demon, Lord Demon King! I don't mean to offend you, I just..."
"Well, you don't have to force yourself," Luo Yan looked down at the little devil and continued with a majestic voice, "I understand your Majesty the Queen's intentions, but my answer is still the same. Please convey your greetings to her to me, and there is no need to mention the rest."
By the way, does this guy really convey his meaning every time he sends a message?
Could he be too trusting in the efficiency of these "local demons"...
"Yes, yes..." Missy clamped her legs together, her nervous expression was like that of a student who made a mistake.
Without pushing her too hard, Luo Yan softened his tone and continued.
"In addition, I need you to help me make a batch of cross ornaments with the Soul Release Technique sealed. The weight must be less than 30 grams, with a hole for a rope, and the material can be granite or obsidian. In terms of quantity... you can make 10,000 pieces first."
In order to prevent the little devil from forgetting, he specially wrote the requirements on a letter and asked "Okto" to hand it to her.
After listening to the Demon King's instructions, Missy took the envelope with a confused expression on her face.
"Making a cross with a soul-releasing seal within it... Lord Demon King, is there any use in making this?"
Similar things have been done in Nightmare Land, and many of them have been done.
For example, they had previously stuffed crosses engraved with the "Summoning of the Dead" magic circle into treasure boxes on each floor of the maze, and secretly engraved words like "Resurrection Stone" inside.
Some experienced adventurers will naturally not be fooled, and usually just ignore it.
However, some newcomers will take it with them as a treasure and even send it back to their hometown as a souvenir.
This kind of jewelry will not work normally. Once the wearer dies, it will immediately be transformed into an undead of the same level, and then attack surrounding teammates indiscriminately.
For a novice adventurer team, almost one wave is enough to take them away.
This is a top-notch prank.
In addition to such hellish jokes, their creativity also includes treasure chests that are not limited to biting people, potions that dissolve clothes, armor with tentacles, helmets that turn your head into weird things, paralysis rings that cannot be taken off and discharge intermittently, etc.
"This devil has its own uses, just do as you please, I will use it to drain the pockets of the adventurers. By the way, remember not to do unnecessary things! What I asked you to engrave on it is a spell to release souls, not a spell to devour souls. Don't get confused."
Considering the nature of the little devil, Luo Yan had to add this sentence at the end.
"Yes, yes!"
Hearing the warning from the Demon King, Missy tensed up in fear and nodded repeatedly.
Superfluous things...
She felt guilty when she heard this.
After a pause, Luo Yan continued.
"I said before that I will help you solve the food crisis. From today on, every time you make an amulet that contains the soul release technique, I will pay you... 900 Hades coins."
After thinking about it, he finally linked the Hades coins to the copper coins of the Os Empire.
Let’s set it at 1:1 for now. A piece of bread is priced at 10 to 20 coins.
After all, this place is too far away from hell, even if it is linked to Keira, it is meaningless, it is purely to embarrass myself.
Mixi tilted her head and said in confusion.
unning costs)?
"It is the currency of the necropolis," Luo Yan knew that she would not understand what he said, so he explained patiently, "The underworld currency only circulates in the necropolis. You can use it to buy additional supplies from me. Such as grilled sausages, barbecue, grilled lizards, and large chicken!"
Although she didn't know what the large chicken was, Missy's saliva flowed to the corner of her mouth when she heard that it could be exchanged for food, and she couldn't help but swallow several mouthfuls of saliva.
"Ming, I understand! I will definitely convey your instructions to Your Majesty Sissi accurately and accurately! I will never add unnecessary things!" Missy's voice became smaller and smaller as she spoke.
Luo Yan nodded with satisfaction.
"Very good. In addition to the amulet I mentioned, if you have other novel gadgets, you can send them over, and I can help you take a look. Finally, don't remember what I said wrong, go down."
The last half of the sentence was purely a well-intentioned reminder, but someone who couldn't help but feel guilty.
Missy stood up straight as if she was electrocuted, like a frightened groundhog, and even her voice was out of tune.
「Yes, yes!」
After receiving the order, she did not dare to stay for a moment, flapped her wings and took off into the air, flying unsteadily to the entrance of the cave.
However, she may have used too much force and failed to control the height. She hit the ceiling of the cave entrance, screamed and covered her head.
Aracto, who stood proudly in the shadows, couldn't help but laugh wildly.
"Hahahaha, what a shame!"
"Woo..." Missy, who was slumped on the ground with tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, stared angrily in the direction of Arakedo, daring to be angry but afraid to speak.
Damn it!
This smelly spider!
A mere black iron-level low-level monster dares to speak rudely to this devil (the little devil is also a devil!)!
If it weren’t for the Demon King’s sake, she would definitely cut this guy into eight big pieces and throw them into the mushroom soup!
Seeing the grievance in the eyes of a certain little devil, Luo Yan reprimanded him with a majestic voice.
"Arakto, please don't be rude. She is one of my king's subjects just like you."
"Yes, Lord Demon King." Arakto lowered his head respectfully, folded his eight legs and crawled on the ground.
"It's okay, Mr. Demon King, Missy just bumped and rubbed it and it'll be fine..."
Mexi stood up in a hurry and saluted respectfully towards the shadows, hiding her arrogance of bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
But Arakdo is not afraid of her. He apologizes for the sake of the Demon King.
Although he only has black iron, as the Demon King's mount, he can be considered as the Demon King's shadow.
Just when Missi was about to retreat, a short burrow spider suddenly rushed in from outside the hall.
The spider shouted in panic while waving its eight legs.
"Things are going to be bad!"
"Presumptuous!" Before the Demon King could speak, Arakdo arrogantly reprimanded him, "Why are you so nervous!"
"Yes——"
Arakdo: "Kneel down and talk!"
The little spider quickly folded up its eight legs, pressed its round belly to the ground with a dull sound, and cried out.
"Home! The home of the Shadowweaver clan! Something big happened! Queen Arachnos's palace was flooded!"
Arakdo felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his brain failed for a long time before he could say a word.
……Ah!?”
…
The maze corridor about five or six hundred meters away from Shadow Weaver's lair.
Three black iron-level skeleton soldiers riding on the backs of crypt spiders, and a dozen or so newbies with dragon IDs, are fighting bloody battles with wild crypt spiders.
One of the black iron-level skeleton soldiers rushed to the front, and with a sweep, he cut the two surrounding crypt spiders into two pieces!
"Hahahaha! It's so good! It's so happy!"
The leader of the player laughed loudly, the soul fire in his skull was blazing, and a black iron-level skeleton soldier was stunned by him and showed the spirit of a death knight.
The man he was riding under was also a red rabbit among spiders, and his momentum was not inferior to his. Looking at the flying juice, he shouted excitedly.
"Brother is awesome!!!"
The cheers were as exciting as seeing the national football team score a goal.
The old man riding on the back of the spider was a little embarrassed by the flattery. He touched his index finger under the bridge of his nose and rubbed it twice like a scholar.
"Haha, keep a low profile!"
That's what he said, but his operation was not low-key at all. The boys in the back row were thrown ten meters away by him, and they couldn't catch up.
This person is the president of the Long Xing Tian Xia Guild [Dragon Xing Wanli]!
The man he was riding under was his good brother who he rented for five hundred yuan - [the first pig in the national server].
After a few days of practice, the two have mastered each other's rhythm and the combined combat skills of joint attacks!
Specifically speaking, when Brother Wanli raises his arm, Brother Guofu will move forward; Brother Wanli will swing his ax forward, and Brother Guofu will move forward again.
Although on the surface, the national service brother is only responsible for arching forward, there is actually a lot of knowledge in it, and it is all a secret in detail.
For example, when the boss successfully cuts off the head of a spider, he will shout "Well done brother" at the right time! And if the boss takes away two of them with one move, he will excitedly shout "Awesome!"
If the boss misses or chops crookedly, he will quickly snatch the pot away - "My, my, this is my fault."
But that’s the thing, Brother Long is actually very skilled and a good person. Although he has a strong desire to win, he will only get sulky and silent when he suffers a loss. He is not as difficult to serve as other bosses.
It can be said that thanks to Brother Long, [the first pig in the national server] has indeed become the only black iron-level spider in the entire server.
As for the two living treasures, the failed Eel and the failed Dirty Eel, due to the boss's playing style being more "obscene", the upgrade speed is actually slower than that of him charging in the front row.
Seeing these two lonely guys, all the surrounding cave spiders gathered around them with murderous intent, ready to teach these two intruders a lesson.
Looking at the monsters surrounding him, the dragon traveled thousands of miles but showed no fear at all. Instead, a fighting spirit boiling like a fire burned in his skull!
“Brother, we’re about to get in!”
“Ouch! We’re in, brother!” Although the national uniform brother was panicking, he saw that the shrimp soldiers and crab generals behind him were almost there, so he didn’t panic in an instant.
Don't run so far ahead, I can't even shoot! " Brother Baili, who was riding on the back of the spider, complained as he drew his bow and fired an arrow. With a whoosh of arrow, he knocked down the spider that was charging towards his elder brother.
At the same time, Qianli Yifan, who was also riding on the back of the spider, calmly commanded and finally rescued the boss before he was surrounded by monsters.
"Group A steps forward to draw hatred! Group B pays attention to support! Group C aims at the spiders in the distance! Remember! Wait until they are close before shooting arrows!"
A swishing wave of arrows fell on the front row of the spider swarm. The howling skeleton sword and shield bearers used the cover of the archers to attack and cut down the crypt spiders injured by the arrows.
Wild monsters are still monsters after all.
Even though the Crypt Spider's panel was much taller in three dimensions than the Skeleton Soldiers, it still couldn't stand up to the organized PK of these guild guys, and they were quickly defeated.
Seeing that the tribesmen suffered heavy casualties, the remaining cave spiders immediately fled like birds and beasts, not even leaving the newly built nests.
But at this moment, Zheng Huan's group stopped their overwhelming offensive and stopped advancing.
Although this maze is ridiculously big, it is still not easy to find a spot with stable income and suitable for group fights.
According to a post on the official website, this game has the concept of "ecological balance". Once a nest is completely cleaned up, no new monsters will be produced in the area for a long time in the future, unless nearby monsters migrate over.
If you are an individual player, of course you don’t have to think so much, but after all, they play in a guild style, and they have to try to avoid fishing in the lake even for their own sake.
The decision of Longxing Wanli is——
Unless the necropolis issues a reward for clearing monster nests, the nests encountered will be used as monster spawning points to continuously explode gold coins.
Looking at the lair that had been harvested, Long Xingwanli put the ax on his shoulders and said with unfinished meaning.
"Let's go to the next area."
The current level is LV6.
He doesn't expect to directly catch up with Yiye Zhiqiu, but he thinks there is still hope to catch up with the second best player in the server.
After all, he is the third person to be promoted to Black Iron.
Just when a group of people were about to leave this area, a rumbling sound suddenly came from the cave in the distance.
The sound came from far to near, like a war drum that was gradually playing, like muffled thunder!
The expression of a player standing next to Qianli changed slightly, he looked at her and said.
"It sounded like a flood."
Qianli looked at him quickly.
"Are you sure?"
The player nodded hurriedly.
He had been on the front line during rescue operations before, and this voice was all too familiar to him.
The whole skeleton was shocked when Long Xingbaili came.
"Holy shit...how could there be water in the maze?!"
"Who knows! Get to higher ground first!"
Qianli roared and kicked the spider under him, but saw that all the brothers around him stood motionless, and the spider under him did not move.
She became anxious when she saw this.
"What are you all doing in such a daze?!"
Long Xingwanli glanced around with a subtle expression, smiled awkwardly and touched the back of his head.
“I was thinking... which way to go is higher.”
And he forgot who he heard from.
Hearing the sound, he basically couldn't run away, so he had to find something to hold on to...
"Theoretically, skeletons are not afraid of flooding. Anyway, let's stand together first and see if we can rush to a place."
As he said this, Long Xingwanli had climbed off his mount and held his ax tightly in his arms.
Everyone also protected their equipment on their chests and rallied around Brother Wanli.
The first pig in the national server: "What the hell, brother, where am I?!"
The Dragon Travels Ten Thousand Miles: "Calculate it as a work-related injury."
The first pig in the national server: "Gan!"
…
At the same time, at the edge of the Silver Pine Forest, there was a maze entrance less than a hundred meters away from the river and hidden behind the reeds.
I saw only a crookedly dug and crudely made water channel, which connected the river to the entrance of the cave at some point!
The raging river water is like a wild horse running wild, and it is filling it with tons!
Because there was too much to pour in, the overflowing river water even formed a large pond in the forest next to it!
Hundreds of mermaids and lizardmen from the Earth Dragon Tribe were standing next to the entrance of the maze. The leader of the Earth Dragon Tribe, Sanu, laughed heartily.
"Hahahaha! It's so enjoyable! It's so enjoyable!"
It's impossible to fill the entire maze with this river water, and it would even be enough to wet the floor of the Beifeng Mine.
But it won’t flood the necropolis, but it won’t be a problem at all if it floods Shadow Weaver’s lair!
As for why Shadow Weaver's lair was flooded?
Who wants these eight-legged bugs to be the accomplices of the necropolis!
The frozen corpses sent to the Earth Dragon Clan had the threads of crypt spiders on them, and the only organized crypt spiders on the first level of the maze were the Shadow Weaver clan.
Thinking of the group of bugs struggling in the water, Sanu felt indescribably happy all over his body, and he wished he could let out a dragon roar to add to the fun.
Relieve your anger!
It’s so refreshing!
Looking at the proud look of the so-called leader of the Earth Dragon Clan, Sodo, who was carrying the harpoon on his back, curled his lips in boredom, with a hint of disdain hidden behind his unruly eyes.
Too weak.
Whether it is these geckos claiming to be the Earth Dragon Clan or the little spiders who are indistinguishable from a group of geckos, they all look like bugs in front of him.
Especially this so-called patriarch.
With only a mere fine steel grade, one can become the leader of a clan.
It’s really a shallow tortoise!
“Speaking of which, your move is really vicious. Why didn’t I think of it?” Looking at Sodo carrying the harpoon, Sanu couldn’t hide the joy on his face.
Sodor smiled.
"It's nothing, we know a lot of things...it's just that most of the tricks don't work well on the shore."
Sanu grinned and said with bright eyes.
If it were the Stone Lizards who had said these words, he might have become furious, but when he heard this group of overestimating fellows say this, he had no intention of getting angry at all.
"Hahahahaha! Let's solve the trouble here first and then talk about it!"
Sodo laughed loudly, swung down the harpoon on his shoulder, and touched the surging water with the pointed end downward.
He closed his eyes and said after a moment.
hh "Hey, this maze is quite deep, and I haven't been able to get to the bottom for so long."
h Sanu said proudly.
"After all, the area of this maze covers most of Thunder County, and even Silver Pine Forest cannot compare with it."
"That's right... But in this case, the strategy of forcing the opponent out will not work." Sodo rubbed his cheek with his index finger and said thoughtfully.
Sanu frowned.
"I don't believe that the demon king would just sit back and watch his vassal, unless he doesn't want to hang out in this maze anymore!"
"That's not the problem," Sodo shook his head and tapped his head with his index finger, "Think about it for a moment, what would you do if you were the devil?"
Sanu: "Block the source!"
Sodo chuckled.
"This is the most dangerous, because the enemy is bound to ambush there."
They want to rob a ship at sea, they will not catch up straight up, and it is not that easy to swim past a human steamship.
They will first use the waves to make the opponent deviate from the channel, and then pursue and intercept them, forcing the human ships to sail into the storm.
At that time, it was their meal time.
If it is an experienced captain, he will definitely predict their hunting plan, and at this time they have to make some changes... such as taking advantage of the other party's self-righteous "familiarity with the sea."
Looking at the blank-faced leader of the Earth Dragon Clan, Sodo no longer had any hope in this guy's brain, and walked toward the flooded maze entrance carrying the harpoon.
"You guys just wait here, I'll wait at the 'intersection' of the torrent."
The water has been submerged for so long without reaching the bottom, which shows that there is a flood discharge design in the maze.
In this way, the other party can actually ignore the source of the flood and build a few walls directly at the intersection of the flood to drain the flood into Shadow Weaver's lair to other places.
But he won't let that guy succeed.
"Do you know where the 'intersection point' is?" Sanu looked at Sodo's back, frowning and said, "How about I send you a guide."
This guy is obviously a foreign lizard, but he acts as if he knows the maze very well.
Sodor curled his lips and said disdainfully.
"The water flow will guide me in the direction."
Looking at the Sharman warriors disappearing at the entrance of the maze, Sanu finally had a look of displeasure on his face.
This guy...
From the beginning to the end, he, the leader of the clan, has never been taken seriously!
A lost fish, a rootless duck...I don’t know what he is showing off?
Nils walked to the side of the patriarch and whispered.
"What about us? Should we follow...or continue to stay here?"
Sanu snorted coldly.
"Since this guy is so confident, let them go. We just have to guard this place and don't let the water stop."
Looking at the displeased patriarch, Nils smiled bitterly but had no choice.
He knew that the patriarch was not satisfied with this group of guys with long gills.
But he really couldn't find other helpers...
