Chapter 2012: Battle Trials in the Dawn (47)

The passage of the warrior's grave was dark, but not so dark that you couldn't see your fingers. However, at this time, the main light source that illuminates the entire passage is actually the tail flame of Daniel's Iron Rider, the kind of pale light with a pale blue light.

With this light, Daniel saw the [thing] chasing behind him. To say that it is some kind of creature is not even quite accurate. It was as if it was surrounded by a cloud of black gas, and there was no fixed form, just a filthy, dark, indescribable mass that could not be touched.

...... things of the abyss?

But what kind of abyss is that, and where does it come from?

"Guardian of the Grail Shard,"

"With the temptation of despair. ＂

"It is an excellent bait for the things of the abyss. ＂

The female ghosts who called themselves royal maids talked word by word, ignoring Daniel's question.

"You will be chased, in all forms. ＂

"In reality, in dreams. ＂

"In the abyssal things exist, in all the desperate realms of time and space. ＂

"That's a disaster. Daniel snorted.

The so-called "abyssal thing" that chased him behind him was unknown if it was originally in this ruin, or if it was released by the knights who blew up the entrance to the passage outside. If it's the latter, it's terrifying. However, legend has it that in addition to various fixed killing traps, the tomb of the warrior will also contain various terrifying monsters and creatures, which exist as living and mobile killing traps. It's not impossible that there's a mix of one or two of this discordant.

Anyway, let's run away now. Being caught up by that kind of thing, I don't know what the consequences will be. Daniel stepped on the throttle, allowing the Iron Rider to speed up again. He hadn't intended to let the Iron Rider move at a constant pace in this long corridor full of traps, but now he had no choice.

Whoosh, whoosh! As soon as this side accelerated, the movement of the Iron Rider triggered some kind of mechanism in the corridor. Dozens of iron needles that appeared to be coated with ferocious poison were fired at Daniel. However, the Black Iron Knight boy directly pressed a switch on the iron horse, and easily blocked these iron needles.

That's right, even though it's an old-fashioned iron horse, this one is still loaded with a photon shield. Dealing with the powerful light cannons of the other Iron Riders, this shield may not be enough. But with an ordinary trap weapon, this shield is more than enough to block. The traps in the Warrior's Grave were developed to deal with [people] at best, and those hidden weapons might be effective in shooting humans, but they couldn't pose much of a threat to the Iron Rider that Daniel was driving.

When the ancients built this warrior's tomb, they probably ignored the blind spot of the iron horse, and never thought that someone would drive the iron horse to rush in and break through the level, right? No, in fact, the iron horse is also a technology that has only flourished in the past thousand years, and it is far shorter than the existence of this warrior's tomb. At that time, the ancient people who made this ruin probably didn't even know what an iron rider was.

Daniel gave another quick glance behind him. The indescribable black thing was still wriggling there, but it was thrown out of the way by the Iron Knight, and it didn't catch up for a moment.

So the problem is still the trap at hand.

Once again, Daniel focused his attention on the front. By this time, the road ahead had begun to crack, and countless needles had emerged from the cracked walls and floors. The ruins were intended to block the adventurers of the past with a complex array of needles of varying lengths. However, this needle array was obviously designed to kill humans who entered this place in the flesh, and people could not safely pass through these needle piercing terrain, but the iron knight could levitate on the ground and fly directly over. Just pay attention to the height and you will have no problem.

Daniel then adjusted the flight altitude of the Iron Rider, and with a somersault, he crossed the area covered with pinpricks.

Swish!------

No, not quite crossed. His prediction was still a little worse, and one of the sharp pinpricks scraped through the Iron Horseman's flank, leaving a long scratch on the flank. The sound made a cold sweat break out on the back of Daniel's head, but fortunately the scratch was not serious, at least the flank did not fall off from the injury, only slightly distorted.

As soon as Daniel pierced the terrain, he touched the control panel of the Iron Rider and adjusted the airship's automatic balance system. The impact of flank damage is still there, but it can be fine-tuned and solved by the system, but this iron rider flew a little awkward from this moment, and the entire fuselage tilted to the right by one degree. This slight change is not obvious, but it can have a fatal impact at the most critical moment. In normal times, Daniel would have found an opportunity to stop the Iron Rider for some emergency repairs. But there was the unspeakable abyssal thing chasing after him, and Daniel had no time to pause, so he had to bite the bullet and go on. I just hope that the road ahead is not as dangerous as imagined, and the performance of the damaged iron rider will not continue to deteriorate.

But he was naïve to the point of optimism. Although it is only the periphery, the killing traps inside the Warrior's Grave are still extremely deadly, and each one is more deadly than the other------ because Daniel enters through the entrance, as long as he keeps moving forward, he will inevitably go a little deeper into the inner layer of this Warrior's Grave.

There were countless laser-like beams in front of me, some kind of cutting beam, very similar to the flow of photons used by lightsabers. If it is scratched, even the shell of the Iron Rider will be cut into countless pieces, and the power of this thing is so great that it is not something that the protective shield of the Iron Rider can stop.

No! At the current speed, no matter how good Daniel's manipulation skills are, the Iron Rider will crash into this kind of killing array that is constantly moving up and down, left and right, cutting beams! If you slow down, you can do something with precise operation------ whether the Iron Rider can pass through it intact is another matter.

But is there really no problem slowing down like this? What about the monster that is still chasing behind him? Daniel always has a premonition that something bad will happen when that thing catches up!

But the abyssal creature was at least thirty yards away from the Iron Knight, and it needed more time to catch up with Daniel. If you don't slow down here, the Black Iron Knight Boy will definitely be cut to pieces by the beam killing array with his people, and then everything will really be over!

Daniel retracted the Iron Rider's wings and turned off the Iron Rider's engine, causing it to crash through. Although the Iron Rider is not easy to control in this form, it also has a very small cross-section, allowing it to easily traverse some narrow areas. In addition, this beam killing array was originally designed to deal with [people], and did not consider the flight trajectory of the Iron Rider, so there are more gaps in those positions near the ceiling that can be traversed, which is a loophole in the system. Daniel crouched on the Iron Horse, and even the Iron Horse crashed through the bullet like a bullet, forcing his way through this terrifying death trap against the ceiling!

He felt a burning pain in his back, because his back had been in contact with smallpox, and the skin had been scratched. However, this injury has little impact on Daniel, as a dark green knight, he has a strong ability to heal himself, and it won't take long for the abrasions on his back to heal!

After passing through the trap area and getting out of danger, the Iron Rider once again unfolded its wings, ignited the engine, and controlled its flight attitude. However, when it crashed into it just now, it slowed down quite a bit, and the unspeakable "abyssal thing" behind it also caught up, less than ten yards away from Daniel!

"Hmph...... "Daniel had naively thought that the mass would be cut into countless pieces of flesh by the beam killing array, but it was not affected by the trap at all, and passed through the trap like a cloud of mist!

What the hell is that, something like a nightmare, that can penetrate anything? Anyway, how long will it have to chase it to stop? It's so annoying!

The Iron Rider had just accelerated, but the speed had not yet gone up, and the monster was getting closer and closer. Daniel wondered when the female ghosts were shouting behind him, "It's coming!" "Be careful!" "Don't be caught up by the abyss!"

"What?!" Daniel initially thought it was a simple fog that was only a threat if it was close enough. In fact, the so-called abyssal thing was even more dangerous than the Black Iron Knight boy had imagined, and when it got close enough to a distance of about seven yards, it immediately changed, and suddenly launched a large number of disgusting tentacles like intestines and bright red from those black indescribable things!

!------"Ahh In the center of the illegible black mist, where the bright red tentacles radiated out, a large mouth of blood opened. The bloody mouth had yellow fangs like bones, arranged in a circle, like some kind of biochemical meat grinder, disgusting to the extreme. In the center of the bloody mouth was a dark place where the depths could not be seen clearly, as if swallowed by it would fall into a bottomless abyss.

So what is the abyss? Are all things in the abyss so distorted?

Daniel wielded the powerful Photon Saber and severed the flying tentacles one by one. However, some of the tentacles were still wrapped around the right wing of his iron horse, which happened to be the damaged wing just now. The broken tentacles were still wriggling, as if they were some kind of large roundworm. It was sticky and tangled, and it was fixed to the wing like that so that it wouldn't fall off, and Daniel was annoyed to see it. The Iron Rider also became unstable due to the weight gain of the wings and the disturbance of the air flow by foreign objects, and began to dangle around. The automatic balancing system of the fuselage is still working, but there seems to be no way to deal with this strange thing that is constantly changing and wriggling.

Now it's just a tentacle wrapped around the wing, which is okay. If more tentacles are entangled, Daniel's Iron Rider will be in big trouble!

The main thing is that the distance is too close and must be pulled away immediately. At this time, Daniel decisively stepped on the accelerator------ Iron Rider, who had already begun to accelerate, accelerated further, and sped at full speed in order to throw away the disgusting abyssal thing!

Unfortunately, however------

There was a bend in the road ahead at a nearly ninety degree angle, and the Iron Rider was crashing into the wall at the end of the corridor at an alarming speed!
