In the core hub, the last boss in the mage's treasure room, the level 7 lord-level boss, the lord statue, stood in the center of the rotating mana platform, watching the reflections of the three people who walked into the core hub.

"The Guardian of the Shadow Light, at the bottom of our feet."

With the blessing of the True Knowing Eye, Lin Ling's gaze very easily passed through the bottom of the mana platform shrouded in magic smoke, and saw a huge pentagram composed of five elemental stone sculptures occupying five directions each.

In the center of the pentagram was a hazy glowing object of the kind, which was the target of his mission: the Spectre Guard.

The entrance to the spiral staircase to the base of the mana platform, hidden behind the pedestal of the Lord's statue.

By draining the power of the Spectre Guard, the Lord's Statue has nearly infinite health and mana. It creates a mana shield that can absorb all types of damage.

Lin Ling was not willing to use the traditional way to defeat the lord statue first, and then go to rescue the Ghost Light Guard after obtaining the Sealing Stone Sutra. His remaining mana couldn't support him to do that.

"See? Drunk without alcohol. ”

Lin Ling used the power mirror of Glaudis to strike the mana platform, slightly dispersing the nearby magic smoke, revealing the hidden spiral staircase. He turned around and said to Drunken Wujiu, "Let's go down from here, as long as we free the Shadow Light Guard, the lord statue above will naturally collapse." ”

"How am I going to hold it back?" Strawberry interjected.

"No, you don't need to hold it off, keep an eye on it." Lin Ling raised his hand and unleashed a wave of magic missiles, three beams of silver and bright force fields slashed across the dim dome, crashing into a protruding high platform like a headless fly and shattering, he motioned to Strawberry Nose to pay attention to the high platform, and said, "Can you see that high platform?" There are three traps on it, and all you have to do is climb up to control them to stop the lord statue. By the way, have you ever played the jigsaw puzzle game Huarong Dao? ”

Strawberry Nose was slightly stunned, and then replied, "I played it when I was a child." ”

"Those three traps are the same as the gameplay of Huarong Dao, you only need to pull the innermost imprint puzzle to the bottom, you can activate the Titan Beam and paralyze the Lord Statue." Lin Ling said that he would give them the moonstone that he had entrusted with the love-hate entanglement, one for each person, and he advised, "Wait a while, the boss will use the moonstone to create artificial darkness and obscure its perception." ”

"Obscuring perception?" Strawberry asked, puzzled.

"I'll give you a demonstration first."

The method of using moonstones to mask the perception of statue-like monsters was discovered by Lin Ling by accident back then, and it did not exist in the strategy of any mage's treasure room. It's a pity that when he discovered this trick, he was already over level 10, and he could no longer enter the mage's treasure room to make a profit.

Lin Ling is going to end some of the regrets of his previous life today.

He grabbed a piece of moonstone and walked forward, entering the guard range of the lord's statue.

The flat face of the lord's statue, which looked like it had been slashed with a knife, immediately opened a huge evil eye.

"Intruder!"

The heavy pedestal sank into the mana platform, and a slowly rotating gear-like pattern suddenly rose from the void mana platform.

Each gear pattern opened a single-hole evil eye identical to the face of the lord's statue, emitting a hideous glow.

"Look at it."

Lin Ling crushed the moonstone, and a large area of artificial darkness enveloped the entire core hub, covering the evil eye.

"Don't try to blind my eyes!"

The Lord Statue roared and shook the mana platform, all the gear patterns clicked into motion, and the foreheads of the five elemental statues located below the mana platform each opened a hideous evil eye, emitting a dark ray to connect with the Shadow Light Guard, and after drawing enough power from its body, it emitted a sonic wave to feed back into the mana platform.

The waves of light converted into mana shoot out of the evil eye on the gear pattern.

The rays of light shot out by the evil eye converged with each other, forming laser-like fences blocking Lin Ling's way.

"Take a detour, take the ones that aren't blocked." Lin Ling sighed, if love and hate were entangled here, then with the thieves' two major professional specialties of "unlocking" and "disarming the trap", then it would be easy for them to pass through this gear platform. Pity......

"What a detour."

The love-hate entanglement suddenly jumped out of the shadows, and quickly unlocked a lock on a gear pattern.

A huge evil eye appeared with a gear pattern, and the love-hate entanglement that had been prepared for a long time stabbed the back of the evil eye's head with a backhand, and easily wiped his throat to kill the evil eye cleanly. He turned his back to Lin Ling awkwardly and snorted coldly: "Don't think too much, I came in to help you because we signed an electronic contract." ”

"I hope so."

Lin Ling wiped his love-hate side expressionlessly, and drunk and drunken followed with a smile on his face, slammed the thief's shoulder hard, and said, "Why don't you go and clear the obstacles in front of you?" ”

"What......"

The love-hate entanglement rubbed his shoulders unhappily, but his body followed Lin Ling forward.

This awkward guy.

The corners of Lin Ling's mouth showed a hint of arc, although he had all kinds of prejudices about love-hate entanglement, but if he couldn't even trust his teammates who had personally recruited into the team? Who else can he trust?

Although, his trust in the love-hate entanglement is limited to picking locks and lifting traps.

"Time will bury everything, including you!" The artificial darkness created by the Moonstone vanishes, and the Lord's Statue regains its vision. It raised its arms straight, and each of its open palms opened a hideous evil eye, looking directly at Lin Ling and the others.

"With moonstones."

Lin Ling shouted to the drunken drunk, the moonstone on his body was still in the CD and could not be used.

"Let me do it, I've got experience with him." Love-Hate Twist fires out a throwing knife nailed to a depression in the ground, "The connection between the gear patterns hides the mechanism, turn off all the mechanisms to turn off the mana platform, end the charged form of the lord statue, and enter the second stage." ”

Lin Ling nodded slightly, the method of the love-hate entanglement was the solution to the lord statue in the traditional sense, first close the peripheral mechanism, break the connection between the mana platform and the lord statue, and then defeat the lord statue in the traditional way to obtain the "Sealing Stone Sutra" placed inside its body.

However, he didn't have time to fight the statue of the lord, so he had to take a more radical approach.

"Bugs."

The arms of the lord statue were separated from the torso, and they shot at Lin Ling like two missiles, "It's your honor to be defeated by my iron fist. ”

The love-hate entanglement is why the moonstone is thrown, and the artificially created darkness blinds the evil eye in the palms of both arms, and also blinds the evil eye of the lord's statue. He removed another gear pattern and cleared a path, exposing the entrance to the spiral staircase in front of Lin Ling.

Unable to see their way, their arms swirled around their heads like headless flies.

"Judgment, judgment, judgment!"

The statue of the lord shouted and withdrew his arms and wiped his eyes.

"Let's go." The love-hate entanglement pushed Lin Ling, "When the artificial darkness ends, the boss will adjust the gear pattern, and the damage of the evil eye aurora is not low." ”

"Take it."

Lin Ling threw a bottle of life elixir to the love-hate entanglement, and he hurried into the spiral staircase with a drunken spirit.

"No one can beat me, no one!"

The statue of the lord turned the gear pattern angrily, and the aurora from the evil eye** swept the entire mana platform according to the movement of the gear pattern, and the love-hate entanglement clinged to a gear pattern, and luckily escaped the strafing of the evil eye aurora. He waited until the gear pattern stopped turning, then removed the gear pattern and set his sights on the next gear pattern.

On the high platform, Strawberry Nose played with the puzzle that Lin Ling jokingly called Huarong Dao, and finally removed the mana mark from the rune encirclement before the end of time, and embedded it in the place where it should have been.

The mana sigil shone with a pure white glow.

Click!

A thick pillar of light pierced the dome and shone above the lord's statue, gradually disintegrating the gear field it used to shelter its pedestal.

A burly figure with a hammer emerged from the pillar of light.

"Abominable Titan, abominable Falman will!" The statue roared and shot out a steel-forged fist, shattering the phantom in the pillar of light, "Falman, Falman, you despicable villain, just as you can't live forever, don't try to manipulate me forever, never think about it!" ”

The shattered Titan Phantom wailed and shattered.

Bang!

The mana pattern in front of Strawberry Nose exploded, and a black mist phantom that emerged from it screamed and turned into a ghoul, lunging towards him.

"I see." Strawberry Nose understood Lin Ling's arrangement, he slammed the ghoul back into the air, then used the cut to directly damage the ghoul's life, and then relied on the thick skin and rough flesh to slash the ghoul's counterattack, and after accumulating enough anger, he reflexively slashed and slashed, cutting the ghoul into a mosaic of sections.

"Titan Beam? I see, Strawberry Nose, below, watch my gestures using Titan Ray. ”

The love-hate entanglement also understood why Lin Ling wanted Strawberry Nose to drag this boss with himself, every time the Titan Beam was used, a rather powerful ghoul would be refreshed on the high platform, only Strawberry Nose, a warrior wearing scale armor and using a two-handed axe, had the capital to carry it hard, and the others either couldn't fight or couldn't bear it.

And the gear pattern at the bottom can only be removed by yourself.

Once the gear pattern has been dismantled to a certain number, the Lord's Statue will leave its pedestal.

Without the protection of the pedestal, the Titan Beam will paralyze the Lord Statue for up to 30 seconds, enough time for a Rogue to spend all his power.

Moreover, even if he was unfortunate enough to be swept across the street by the Evil Eye Aurora, as long as Lin Ling, who entered the bottom of the mana platform, released the ghostly light guard, the mana film that protected the lord's statue would also disappear.

"Gap, gap, ......"

Faced with the double insurance arranged by Lin Ling, the love-hate entanglement was finally convinced, but he didn't think that he would be much worse than Lin Ling. He looked at the strawberry nose with a calm face, and then looked at the drunken drunken who had always followed Lin Ling down like a bodyguard, thinking about whether it was time to change his thinking, and like Lin Ling, find some trustworthy teammates, and do a great job and make a career?
