Chapter 197: Tigers in the Front, Wolves in the Back (Thanks to the New Helmsman "Seafood Shaved Ice")

It was a metal beast larger than Atrak, with a huge body that blocked the entrance to the cave in the future, like a giant god guarding the door.

"Tomb Scorpion!"

Stone and Fitandila once again shouted out in unison, calling out the identity of the beast.

Although the one that stopped in front of them this time was also a reptilian insect in a sense, it was completely different from the previous swarm.

Both were important forces guarding the tomb of the Tomb King, but if the black beetles were ordinary patrol soldiers, the massive scorpion was a Land Cruiser.

The giant scorpion in front of you is not a naturally occurring creature, but like the Ushabits, it is a structure made of bone, stone, and metal, combined with the skill of a tomb technician.

Therefore, in addition to its appearance as a desert scorpion magnified by a hundred times, it also clearly bears the unique traces of Guni Hekala all over its body.

The giant scorpion's whole body was covered with a layer of black and gold heavy carapace, the pitch-black stone and the dazzling gold formed a sharp contrast, and on the surface of the carapace, countless strange blue lights flashed, like electric snakes were dancing wildly.

Its two huge claws and segmented torso were engraved with incantations written in the ancient Nekhkara language, and at the head and upturned tail, there was a golden skull, and two pairs of evil eyes seemed to be hidden in the four black holes, which were secretly peeking at the intruders in front of them, making people shudder.

It seems that the previous tomb swarm was just an appetizer, this is the main meal, by the way, there is also a dessert after the meal, and don't forget, the skeleton warriors rushing out of the pyramid are also rapidly approaching.

There were tigers in front and wolves behind, and there was no doubt that they were surrounded!

Thinking of the abrupt actions and words left by the Light Mage before leaving, it is not difficult to guess that this time it seems that he has fallen into a trap that has been planned for a long time.

However, most of the orcs present were still unaware, they were still happily playing the game of stepping on firecrackers, and only a small number of them saw the giant scorpion appear, and looked at this big guy who suddenly came out of the ground, looking eager to try.

Fortunately, this time the stone reacted quickly enough to give the order before his men could attack the giant scorpion without knowing the severity.

"Old rotten teeth! You take the little ones to get rid of the bugs quickly, and then go to deal with the skeleton shelf in the back, and leave this big guy to me! Cheer up Lao Tzu, this time the bones are much harder than those outside! ”

The stone face did not change color, and he shouted calmly.

The tomb scorpion in front of him was an expert at slaughtering infantry, and if the big guys of the pro-guard team were entangled in it, they would definitely suffer heavy losses, so Shi immediately decided to ask them to deal with the opponents behind.

However, the orcs did not have an easy task, because this time they were not facing the skeleton cannon fodder before, but the most elite heavy infantry in the Tomb King's legion, the Tomb Guard!

At first, when the big guys heard that this big guy had no part of their own, they let out a roar of dissatisfaction and grievance, but when they heard that there was a group of more powerful guys behind them, they immediately increased their horsepower and killed all the beetles on the ground.

As the best-equipped and most powerful class in the Eptoile of the Undead Legion, the Tomb Guard is a position that can only be held by warriors who have been on the battlefield for decades and have gained countless experience and prestigious honors.

They were the king's personal guards and personal guards during their lifetimes, and because of their bravery and loyalty, they were treated with special treatment during burials, and even enjoyed the privilege of ordinary nobles after their deaths, and were able to share in the immortality of the Tomb King, in which a part of the corpse was properly disposed of by the priests with mysterious spells and methods.

This mummification-like secret method allows these tomb guards, when awakened, to have faster reflexes, harder bones, more skilled martial arts, and, most importantly, more resilient souls than ordinary skeleton warriors.

Their corpses lay asleep in the sarcophagus along with their delicate armor and weapons, standing straight in the deepest part of the tomb king's tomb, just as they were alive, guarding their emperor at all times.

Once awakened, these warriors, who have retained all their memories of their lives, wear heavy armor made of bronze and gold, wield razor-sharp halberds and heavy tower shields, and tear apart every enemy who dared to offend the king's rest, as they did thousands of years ago.

To be honest, if it's one-on-one, even the big orc guy is not their opponent, fortunately, the number of tomb guards who rushed out now is not much, the stone has a visual inspection, the two teams of people, just one hundred, and the big guy on his side has more than two hundred, plus the big shaman of the old rotten tooth, it should be able to deal with it.

It's just that his own pressure is greater, and he needs to face a tomb giant scorpion alone.

Oh no, there seem to be some companions.

When the orc boys had almost wiped out the tomb swarm, turned around, and followed the old shaman's shout and rushed towards the heavily armed enemy, the stone himself was left in place, and the few remaining human shrimps.

So to be precise, he is not alone, but except for Fitandila, everyone else has reached the limit, not to mention fighting, even a move is enough to choke, not even cannon fodder.

The ancient tomb scorpion in front of him didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and had been lying on the ground calmly since it appeared, if it weren't for the occasional swing from side to side with its high tail, the blue mangs on its body were still beating chaotically, and the two huge crusts were still stained with fresh soil, thinking that this was a statue that had just been made.

"Why don't you seem surprised at all?"

Carrying a scimitar, Fitandila panted to the Orc Lord, alongside him to face the enemy in front of him.

In addition to the dark red blood stains on her snow-white robe, there were many green juices from the tomb swarms, and the two were mixed together like an ingenious abstract painting.

The stone glanced at her with some surprise, the strength of the other party was once again beyond his expectations, and he still stood up bravely in this situation, I have to say that this immature girl is much more gentleman than most of the shrimp.

Well, it's a man!

"Surprised? This kind of emotion means nothing to me, no matter what kind of demons and monsters it is, let's talk about it all! ”

Stone quickly returned his gaze to the fang-dancing construct, and then pretended to be forced.

That's what he said, but that's not what he thought in his heart.

"Lost! It's not because I have a system! ”

As mentioned before, he doesn't quite remember what the enemies behind the "Valley of the Dead" are, but fortunately there is a chain of missions.

After killing Lames, the third and final part of the chain of missions was released, one of which was to kill a tomb scorpion, so he had been preparing for it for a long time, not to mention that he already knew something about this dungeon.

However, the answer just now is correct, as long as you kill all the enemies, all problems will be solved.

It's just that this difficulty seems to be a little higher than previously expected, after all, no one thought that there would be a two-five boy on their side, and now it means that they are a little bit of an enemy.

The way this giant scorpion appeared was also sudden enough, first taking advantage of the tomb insect swarm to hold them back, and then attacking back and forth with the tomb guards, obviously planned, step by step.

The scorpions, the swarms, and the tomb guards, there is a more powerful being behind the scenes.

"Come out, I know you're here!"
