Chapter 225: For the King
For the king
In the dark cave, Li Qi just thought for a while, then gradually came back to his senses, he wiped his dirty face, and turned around to devote himself to the great work of digging caves and searching for treasures again.
I can't just sit here and wait for my senior brother to come to me, whether it's cultivating or digging a hole, I have to do something.
For the first time, he felt a trace of dissatisfaction with his realm as a junior magic apprentice, he couldn't go out and take the initiative to find his senior brother, to put it bluntly, his strength was not enough, whether it was a step forward slash or a mechanical flying claw, these were skills that were much beyond his strength, so it was difficult for him to use them.
If your realm can be a little higher, won't you be so passive?
At least something can be done!
He gritted his teeth and told himself, the iron rod in his hand plunged into the stone wall in front of him again.
"Click...... 簌簌......"
The sound of crushed lime startled the kitten and Blue, who rubbed their sleepy eyes and began to carry the stone dust without saying a word.
I don't know if it's my own delusion, I keep digging holes, Li Qi always feels that his physical fitness has improved slightly compared to before. He can obviously feel that his strength is a little greater than before, whether it is explosiveness or endurance, there are changes, but this change is imperceptibly reflected, not obvious, so Li Qi is not sure.
He didn't know if it was real, and he didn't know why it was happening, but it was a good thing in every sense of the word, and even if he felt wrong, it was nothing, it was better than sitting here by himself.
He pursed his lips tightly, he thought of what his senior brother had said, if he wanted to break through, it would depend on chance, until now, he still didn't know what the so-called chance was, but he had heard another sentence.
Opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared.
He couldn't find an opportunity, and he didn't want to deliberately look for it, but he could at least work harder, so that when the opportunity really came, he wouldn't be helpless.
As he thought, he swung the iron rod in his hand again, and at that moment, a wave of magic suddenly passed through his head.
Li Qi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he didn't dare to dig too deep when he dug the hole, on the one hand, he was afraid of digging something, on the other hand, it was also in case something happened, he would not become a turtle in the urn, so the holes he dug were all on a horizontal plane, about five meters from the ground.
At this depth, for Li Qi, he can attack and retreat, and similarly, the movement on the ground will be sensed by him for the first time. These days, there have been a lot of magic fluctuations that have swept over his head, and he has perfectly avoided them.
Just as he was about to avoid the fluctuation of magic, he suddenly felt a sense of familiarity.
The magic fluctuation seemed to be scattered, as if he was being hunted down, and the magic fluctuation seemed to have spotted him, pausing slightly as it passed him, and then continued to gallop without looking back.
Why?
Li Qi didn't understand, dragging others into the water when he encountered danger and sharing the dangers he suffered was something that every experienced explorer would do, and it didn't matter about the of fairness and justice, his life was going to be gone, who cared about that.
It's all just about living, even if it's like a dog.
Although the magic fluctuations are scattered, they are pure and strong, and the person they represent will definitely not be novices, why didn't they make a move?
Li Qi's heartbeat seemed to be half a beat slower, and he suddenly thought of the familiarity that flashed before, it was...... Brother!
His eyes widened suddenly, and he stared sharply towards the black roof of the cave.
There was a trace of excitement in Helian's heart, even if he was exhausted to the extreme now, his mental power could still hold on, but his body spontaneously sent out a signal that he was about to collapse. After chasing and fleeing for such a long time, those undead armies are still as tireless as puppets, even if they have taken dragon scale fruits, but they are human beings, and it is impossible to compare with these bone frames......
Helian held his breath in his heart, thinking that he might as well go back and fight with them, but the deepest tiredness in his body brought him not only a collapse, but also a significant reduction in the power of the magic he was now unleashing.
This is normal, even if the magician relies on spiritual power, but spiritual power also relies on the body to survive, for example, if the spiritual power is a fruit, then the body is a tree, the tree has begun to wilt, what good state can the fruit have.
Besides, those skeletons are now just tools, just like the swords held by the explorers, they are all tools for killing, and they are fighting to the death, but they destroy some tools, is it worth it......
Maybe it was an unwillingness in his heart, a ruthlessness that supported him to flee until now, he has been going around in circles in his birthplace, and he doesn't dare to run to another area at will.
The necromancers behind him had exhausted him, and if he encountered any dangerous and inexplicable creatures in the labyrinth, he wouldn't know how to die.
Fortunately, these undead seem to be controlled by no one, if someone controls them behind their backs and gives themselves a circle, they will not be able to escape with three lives.
Until this time, Helian could still laugh. His induction just now was not wrong, and the extremely bright water order in the Forbidden Ring also proved his idea.
It was Senior Brother Li who was hiding underground just now!
He didn't know how his junior brother ran underground, but looking at his appearance, it was obvious that he was still alive and well, and that was enough!
He wanted to tell Senior Brother Li to let him escape from the dragon labyrinth through the portal quickly, and let them hell with any ruins and relics!
But these bones behind him made him give up this idea, and exposing Senior Brother Li at this time was tantamount to luring a wolf into the room.
Maybe with the strength of the junior brother, the two of them can kill all these things behind them, but don't forget, the junior brother also has an undead cat by his side, what will he do if he finds out about the current situation?
A fourth-order mage, no matter where he is, is a link that can turn the situation around, not to mention, the undead controlled by someone and the bone frame that only knows how to act instinctively, the two cannot be compared.
He gritted his teeth, and continued to rush forward without looking back, the thoughts in his mind were still extremely clear, chasing and fleeing all the way, using only the wind walking technique, and using two kinds of magic at the same time to consume the spiritual power of the drama slowly recovered, and now it is so vigorous that it is almost burning.
In comparison, his body was getting heavier and heavier, and Helian had already put away the staff in his hand, because if he didn't use his eyes to see it, he could no longer feel the staff.
The demeanor of the moon-white robe is still the same, but the figure wrapped inside begins to stumble.
Rumble!
At this moment, there seemed to be a loud bang behind him, and Helian maintained his speed and turned his head stiffly.
Purple firelight and lightning stained half of the sky, and the skull shelves turned into white bone meal, shattering in the air, and a black, mud-stained figure stood in the purple background, grinning at him, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.
"Senior Brother......
Helian wanted to laugh, but the muscles on his face couldn't make any movements, he looked at the young man in front of him, his mouth opened several times, and finally couldn't help but laugh and scold: "You guy, you only came to save me at this time......"
Before he could finish speaking, his eyes went dark, and he planted it like a stake.
In mid-air, Li Qi turned into a flash of lightning and rushed over, and on the other side of the purple curtain, a neat army of undead stood in front of the kitten, and the kitten's amber dark golden eyes flashed continuously......
There was a faint light above the ancient teleportation array, and there was no one around. About two hundred meters away from the teleportation array, a group of undead cleaned the battlefield in silence, not only the bloodstains, but even the elemental fluctuations were eliminated by what they used, and the surroundings quickly returned to the original appearance.
Not far from them, a necromancer draped in black robe suddenly moved, and two dark green flames lit up in the night-like cloak.
"What's wrong?" the other necromancer on the side felt his movement, and as he opened his eyes, the sound was as piercing as the friction of a blade.
"One of my men has disappeared inexplicably. The man who opened his eyes first hesitated.
"I guess I met some strong person, it's not unusual. Another person enlightened: "It's just a small force, if it's gone, it's gone, there's no need to be surprised." ”
"No, it's different...... the man before was confused for a moment, "They don't look like the soul fire has been dispersed, they seem to have been snatched out of my hands." ”
"Snatch it......?" a black-robed man opened his eyes and let out a piercing laugh, "That's not a fun toy, do you think these humans have the strength to snatch control of the skeletons from us?"
"It's not funny, Anthony. The second black-robed man who opened his eyes said in a serious tone: "Our current task is the heaviest, adults need time, whether we can completely control the maze, whether our plan can be successful, it all depends on whether our current task can be successfully completed." ”
"Don't worry, Nikolai. The third black-robed man who opened his eyes looked confident: "With us ambushed here, even if those humans escape the sweep of several other teams, they can't escape our ambush, four teams have already died at our hands, aren't they, humans, always slack off when they are about to succeed, this is their inferiority." ”
"It makes sense, but we can't let our guard down, this mission can only succeed, not fail, even if it goes well, we can't take it lightly. Nikolai's tone was still serious: "For the king!"
"For the king!" the rest of the crowd said in unison, and their heavy and solemn voices were like swearing.
As far as the eye can see, there are as many as twenty black-robed people like this.
