Chapter 390: The Sphinx's Gift
In the end, Levi still didn't let the cannon directly kill the two big spiders, because one of the tasks he had previously received to promote the knight of the expedition was to ask him to kill a Tier 6 enemy alone.
And because he didn't know how much health the Sphinx had killed before, he finally decided to attack a large spider by himself, after all, this kind of opportunity is really rare, and the rest of the one started to attack directly with a cannon.
The big spider buried by a large amount of rubble is a fixed target, and there is no need to consider the hit rate at all, so the big spider was quickly killed, and an attack from each cannon can cause hundreds of damage, and Levi brought five war barricades carrying cannons this time, and three salvos crippled this Tier 6 monster.
The final blow was under the special command of Levi, left to some of the cavalry subordinates with more combat experience in the team, he hoped that they could take this opportunity to make a breakthrough, and in fact, with the death of the other party, several of the cavalry involved in the attack were indeed promoted, some advanced to become elites, and some were promoted to the 5th rank of troops, but none of them were promoted to hero units, which is a little regrettable, it seems that the promotion of heroes really has to find hero-level enemies.
All in all, the big spider didn't suffer much before it died.
But its remaining companion was a little uncomfortable, even if he used Dou Qi, and there were various auxiliary magic to strengthen his attack, Levi's full force was not as good as the cannon's attack, after all, the cannon not only had its own attack power of more than 100, but also had two powerful skills of armor piercing and anti-large, which Levi couldn't compare to at all.
So even though Levi attacked desperately, it wasn't until the boulders that pressed on it gradually lost their magic effects and slowly began to turn into dirt and sand that Levi finally killed the big one.
After looking at the success prompt displayed on the system panel, Levi finally relaxed, and it really took a lot of effort. However, this also made him realize that although he has been honing his martial arts recently, cultivating his fighting spirit, and improving his combat effectiveness, he is still not enough to look at this kind of 6th-order troops.
The opponent's defense is still too strong, and it is so difficult to deal with this fixed target, if the opponent lets go of the battle on the flat ground, and then uses various skills, he will not be the opponent of the other party at all, because even if his attack hits the other party, it is just not painful, but once the opponent's counterattack arrives, he will definitely be seriously injured, and the error tolerance rate is too low.
After killing the big spider, Levi put away his spear and rested while checking the harvest, while not forgetting to let his younger brothers continue to search for the leader's traces.
Those guys said that the other party was in the valley before, but there was such a big movement here, and they didn't find any trace of the other party at all, so there must have been other accidents.
But for now, let's take a look at what treasure the Sphinx god has left for himself.
First of all, the blue quality short sword, called the Blade of Rakashiaz, there is nothing special in the attributes, that is, it can attach a certain amount of poison attribute damage when attacking, Levi glanced at it and threw it aside, it doesn't matter if it is for the dark elf female assassin or anyone else, now this level of equipment can no longer attract his attention at all.
Then there was a stone tablet with three spells on it, different from the popular magic now, these magics had very strange names, and even Levi had never heard of any of them, but from the names it was possible to roughly guess the effect of the other party.
They are Horkahan's Righteous Strike, Koshar's Storm Charm, and Petra's Punishment Charm, and the threshold for learning them is not very high, but Levi is still going to bring them back to Orfini to see, after all, she is the real master of magic in the team.
Then there's the real highlight, and the most important reward for the Sphinx, and the rest is probably just an addition.
Sphinx's Noble Gift (Legendary - Purple), Special Treasures, One-Time Consumable Items:
The Sphinx is the patron saint of the pyramids and temples in the Nehekala region, the god of riddles, but as a god, of course, it will not personally protect those temples, it uses its own creations to protect it, and after using this gift, you can randomly get a manufacturing skill mastered by the Sphinx, and due to the blessing of divine power, the level of manufacturing skills that can be obtained increases.
Requirements: 20 intelligence, level 12.
(This is a gift given by the Sphinx when he is in a happy mood, but the power of the gods is not so easy to master, and after obtaining skills, certain conditions still need to be met before they can be used)
Levi's first thought was: this is also for Orfinia! And it's a perfect match with her!
Just think about it, you know that the manufacturing skills mastered by the Sphinx must be related to its previous sphinx, not strong enough to beat a 6th-order big spider, even if it is a 5th-order or even a 4th-order, it is very useful for Orfini, because her skill has been stuck at the current level for a long time, if she has this god's technology, it will definitely have a considerable inspiration effect on her!
Levi carefully put this thing away, and at this time, the younger brothers also finished cleaning the battlefield, and he casually took a few trophies from the big spider handed over by the younger brother, and found that the quality was not very good.
I don't know if it's because they have been attacked by the Sphinx before, or because they have been interfered with by external forces, which has greatly reduced the grade of the loot, in short, the two sixth-order monsters, although the gold and experience points are quite expensive, only contributed five pieces of blue-level equipment in the end.
But Levi didn't care at all, this was completely earned for nothing, okay?!
"My lord, we've found a secret passage over there!" At this time, Flame Blade was very excited and ran over to report to Levi.
Levi looked in the direction of the other party's finger, and sure enough, there was a passage with obvious traces of artificial excavation there, which was probably blocked by the boulders after the disintegration of the Sphinx, so Levi They didn't find it, but now all the boulders left by the Sphynx have turned into ordinary dirt and sand, and they found it.
It's just that the passage seems to lead to a deeper underground, Levi still frowned a little, they came this time for speed, all of them came were cavalry, if they went to drill holes, their combat effectiveness would definitely be sharply reduced, and they were unfamiliar with the place, who knew what was inside.
Seeing that Levi seemed to hesitate, the pioneer attendants who had been rescued by Levi before became in a commotion, and then a pioneer attendant stepped out of the crowd, "My lord, please save our regimental leader, if you are willing to help, from now on, all of us are willing to fight for you!" ”
"Oh? Fighting for me? What about your regimental commander? Levi became more and more interested, it seems that this regimental commander is really very loved, the previous battle sacrifice Kodia cared so much about the other party, these pioneer horsemen who are not too theoretically intelligent level are even saying the same, you must know that there is no elite unit among them, which really has to surprise Levi.
Feeling that Levi seemed to be a little shaken, the pioneer squire hurriedly said, "My lord, we all volunteered to be his followers because we admired the prestige and swordsmanship of Captain Reinhardt, and we are not official members of the Goshawk Knights, so for the sake of Captain Reinhardt, we can do this." ”
"Prestige and swordsmanship?" Levi muttered a few words, but shook his head at the end.
Just when the pioneer squire was full of despair, thinking that the other party was going to refuse, Levi continued, "If I agree to your terms, it seems that I am not very upright, although your strength is good, I will not use this kind of coercion to get you to join my command." Don't worry, I'll set out to rescue your commander. ”
Although all the people here are cavalry, but there are still a lot of souls lying in their own space, and if you bring a few of them with Huames and Tanato, Levi thought about it carefully, he thinks that there should be no enemies underground that can threaten him, after all, the great god of the Sphinx seems to have lived here for a long time, and on the side of the couch, how can he allow others to snore?
Even if the Sphinx didn't know this allusion, they must have similar thoughts, and even if there really is any powerful guy, can't they run if they can't beat it themselves?
The pioneer horsemen who had been paying attention to Levi suddenly cheered in unison, which made Levi more and more interested in the captain of Reinhardt, who had a prestige, was good at swordsmanship, and was so loved, this guy was definitely not simple, just rush these, and it was worth taking a little risk.
Levi, who had made the decision, temporarily handed over the task of commanding the cavalry troops to David, as well as the younger brothers such as Liberation, and stopped the request of the pioneer horsemen to follow, and he directly took Huames and a few others into the passage.
Unlike what he had imagined, the underworld wasn't so dark, on both sides of the walls, and overhead, there were some plants that shimmered with light, and some bronze runes that shimmered with light, but as they continued to advance, Levi felt more and more familiar, as if he had been here before!
Hua Meisi next to her also felt the same way, so she couldn't help but ask, "Levi, how do I feel that this place is so similar to that hero's mausoleum?" ”
It dawned on Leviston that, yes, a long time ago, Orfini had given her a map that led to a hero's tomb that looked like a pyramid, with some unorthodox skeleton archers and skeleton cavalry, and the environment and decorations were very similar to this place!
Thinking of the Sphinx's self-introduction before, Levi seems to have some guesses, could it be that the guy was here before? What kind of king would need a god to watch the door for him?
But this doesn't make sense, the leader and the goblin pirates seem to have goblin, if it's the grave keepers, shouldn't the Sphinx kill them all? Why didn't it just slip away without asking?
Hmm, maybe the Sphinx didn't stay on their own initiative, so it all makes sense...
Just as Levi was thinking, there was a sudden collision of weapons in front of him, and the sound of loud shouting, Levi immediately interrupted his thoughts, no matter what, it must be clear to ask the regiment commander, the Sphinx was fighting for the other party before!
After quickly passing through the narrow passage, Levi and the others came to a very large hall, but it looked more like an ancient battlefield, because as far as the eye could see, there were all kinds of bones, broken and rusted armor and weapons, and so on.
Judging from the remains of the bones alone, Levi could tell that there were at least thirty or forty races of dead here, and even the bones of many giant monsters, but the most were some structures made of metal and stone, some looked like lions, some looked like scorpions, and some looked like giants.
Although it is not known how many times bigger, Levi still quickly judged that these things are similar to Orfini's soul to some extent, and then think of the gift given to him by the Sphinx, how can Levi not understand that these things are most likely made by it?
Combined with the previous circumstances, Levi quickly made a relatively reasonable inference, that Sphinx may not be the emperor who volunteered to protect something here, this is most likely its own territory, it was fattened by some coalition forces of different races to the point that it had to go into hibernation, so as to recover from its injuries, right?!
And after the huge Sphinx disintegrated before, the direction in which the small sun-like light flew away was the direction of the distant Nehekhara region!
"Hahaha, human, suffer death!"
A very rampant laughter came from not far away, followed by the sound of weapons clashing and a few short screams.
Levi soon followed the direction from which the voice came and found a figure wearing the uniform of a high-ranking imperial officer and holding a long sword, leaping incessantly, circling with a dozen enemies behind him, and from time to time taking advantage of the large amount of wreckage on the ground to give the other party a round of surprise attacks, adding a few wounds.
Although Levi couldn't see the other party's appearance at all because he was wearing a helmet, Levi immediately judged the identity of the other party, and it must be the head of Reinhardt that he wanted to rescue.
Not for anything else, but because his opponents are heavily armed goblins full of pirate style!
Levi immediately shouted, "Captain Reinhardt, please come here to join us, I was entrusted by Kodia to reinforce you!" ”
The man who suspected of being Reinhardt did not pause when he heard this, but instead took advantage of the situation to attack a few more swords in succession, and after completely killing a goblin, he jumped back several times in a row, widening the distance between him and the goblins, and then turned to look at Levi and the others.
After seeing Levi's face clearly, the other party was obviously relieved, because everyone was human, he immediately ran to Levi's, and at the same time began to remind him, "Unknown friend, I'm Reinhardt, please be careful, these goblins have extraordinary strength, and there are three goblin war bosses among them, all of whom are heroic-level units!" ”
Although he was very grateful for the help of someone at this time, because he was almost at the limit, he also wanted the other party to understand the strength of the enemy, and this battle could not tolerate carelessness, these goblins who had never heard of it had the power to move him too!
Without waiting for Levi to reply, more than a dozen goblins had already climbed over the ruins and wreckage that stood in the way, and they chased after them with a flick of their short legs, unlike ordinary goblins, these goblins were all strong and well-equipped, and they looked absolutely not easy to mess with, one of them was holding a scimitar and wearing a pirate hat The green-faced goblin couldn't help but laugh very arrogantly, "Haha, there are fresh meat people here, maybe I can feed a few forest spiders for my fleet again!" ”
Levi's eyes immediately lit up, "Fleet? Are you Snagra Narcosphalus? The famous goblin pirate? ”
The green-faced goblin was stunned when it heard this, but then it couldn't help but laugh more and more arrogantly, "That's right, it's me, I didn't expect my fame to spread here, damn meat man, maybe I can use you to feed my Araknari, no," the green-faced goblin suddenly came to his senses, "Wait, how did you get in?!" ”
At this time, Reinhardt, who had been getting closer and closer to Levi, also realized the problem, indeed, this cunning goblin was right, what about the two big spiders? If it weren't for the coincidence that he broke that seal and got the help of that amazing stone monster, I'm afraid I would have been eaten by the other party!
After confirming the identity of the other party, Levi was also full of joy, now he could solve two problems at once, he waved his hand and summoned a large number of soul tremors, directly blocking the only way out to the outside, "I've already killed them, it's your turn next, Snagra Poison Saliva!" ”
