Volume 5: The Elegant Tea Party (Remastered) Chapter 59: The Tea Party (Struggle 6)
Banora stood still, not flinching in the slightest, and only when the demon player rushed in front of him, maneuvering the lava hound to pounce, did the long-handled battle axe in his hand swing violently.
As if crashing head-on into a speeding train, the menacing lava hound and the demon player were directly smashed out: "Underestimate you? You're wrong, you're so small that you don't even have the qualifications to let me see it! ”
"Up, kill him!" As soon as the demon player as the leader gave the order, everyone immediately rushed towards Banola, "Watch the ground, don't be hit by his war trample!" ”
"It's a bit of a brain, but it's a pity, guys who sit in the well and watch the sky, you can't even be considered a frog!" Banora said disdainfully, and at the same time the movement of his hand did not stop, and the long-handled battle axe, which looked bulky, danced vigorously in the hands of this minotaur, as if it were an ordinary wooden stick.
Chopping, smashing, swinging, sweeping, stabbing, the long-handled battle axe with a length of nearly two and a half meters seems to have life in Banola's hands, and every time it is just right to repel the attacking enemy, it is obviously wide enough for more than ten people to walk side by side, but it seems to have become a precipitous pass, no matter how these players attack, they cannot break the level called Banola.
"Damn! Flamethrow! Seeing that none of the five people on his side could succeed in besieging any of them, the leading werewolf finally knew that the minotaur in front of him was not an ordinary person, and immediately shouted loudly.
When the others heard this, they immediately stopped their attacks and manipulated the lava hounds to take a few steps back.
I saw five lava hounds under the manipulation of these knights, one by one, with their heads held high, and a little spark escaping from their mouths.
"Flamethrow!" With a shout, a thick pillar of lava fire erupted from the mouth of the lava hound, and the arm-thick pillar of lava fire shot towards Banora like a ray of flame.
Seeing that the five pillars of lava and fire were about to spray on Banola's body, the minotaur thrust the long-handled battle axe in his hand into the ground, and then stomped on the ground several times.
Suddenly, a thick stone wall was trampled up from the ground by Banola, like a small city wall, blocking the five pillars of lava fire.
"How is that possible?" The leading werewolf was dumbfounded, this is their killer weapon, so far, no one has survived this kind of attack, these lava fire pillars are not only powerful, but also have the characteristics of lava, even if it is blue delicate level equipment, when it encounters this lava fire pillar, the durability will be exhausted in a short time, once the enemy loses the equipment, the strength will often drop greatly, and finally the hatred will be in the hands of the five of them.
But I didn't expect that in this narrow environment, the killer feature that I thought was foolproof would be cracked so easily.
As the pillar of lava and fire disappeared, the stone wall that had been stepped on by Banora also fell: "Oh, what a good power! Banola looked at the steaming slate in front of him with his hands on his chest, as if he were looking at a child's toy, evaluating the other party's skills.
"Damn! Die! Seeing that the killer weapon was useless, the five of them once again manipulated the lava hounds to besiege them.
"It's almost time! It's time to send you to death! Banora grabbed his long-handled tomahawk from the ground and raised it high with both hands, "Remember, it was Banora Splithoof who killed you!" ”
The tomahawk was raised in the air, then swung down, smashing precisely into the head of a lava hound, smashing the hapless lava hound directly into the ground, smashing a circle of cracks in the stone slab on the ground.
Before the others could react, a wave of diffused air exploded violently in the center of the tomahawk's fall.
"Meteorite Burst!" Banora shouted.
Suddenly, the originally flat ground suddenly tumbled, as if from a hard slate to a waving surface of water, and after a second, the tumbling stopped.
Just when the players thought it was just Banola's bluff, stone spikes suddenly burst out of the ground and pierced their bodies like sharp swords.
With the landing point of the tomahawk as the center, one hundred and eighty degrees in front of Banola, it seemed that a brilliant stone flower was blooming, and sharp stone thorns with a length of more than three meters pierced these arrogant guys, making their bodies like rags, lifted high.
"Humph!" Banora let out a wisp of heat from her nose and looked at Malik, who was huddled in the corner in the distance, and left with a tomahawk without looking back.
Malik hid in the corner, unable to stop his body from trembling.
Malik, who had watched the battle for no more than two minutes, was left with regret in his mind.
He couldn't believe why he had the courage to come to the ruins of Shasar to stir up the matter of the Snake that devoured the Body.
The minotaur named Banora Splithoof, like a heavy hammer, smashed all of Malik's self-confidence into powder, at this moment, Malik felt as if he was a toad that had just jumped out of the water, and he didn't even take off his tail clean, facing the snake that was a python, and he was really sorry that he dared to try to participate in this level of things with no one in his eyes and empty eyes, it was as if he was facing a python and still making noise, and he was simply impatient.
Shrunken and shivered for a few moments before Malik poked his head out to see that Banora Splithoof had disappeared from the street that had been in plain sight, leaving only the stone flower that bloomed on the ground and the equipment dropped by the slain players.
Malik moved his trembling legs, walked up and picked out a few pieces of equipment he could use, put them on, barely gave himself a little confidence, and then walked along the wall around the battlefield of sharp stone thorns towards the square.
Malik felt that although those players were stupid enough to dare to challenge the Executor as an unusually human monster, at least one thing they were right, and that was that there was no easier way to get the magic gem than to be ambushed outside the altar.
As the minutes ticked by, and seeing that the three-hour time limit was almost over, Malik's mood became more and more impatient.
At this time, the fool also knew that the end of the time limit could never be the end of this hellish tea party, and what awaited them was definitely a worse ending than death, and the only way to escape from this ending was to obtain the magic gem and enter the tall palace in the center of the square to obtain shelter.
As the time left became less and less, more and more players realized this, and invariably came towards the square, and the vast majority of players did not see a few complete pieces of equipment on their bodies, and there was no doubt that what happened to them and Malik was no different.
The Yellow Sand Servants in the square were attracted by these players who kept appearing, and little by little they spread out towards the ruins outside the square, which caused a large number of players to die again, and also greatly reduced the density of the Yellow Sand Servants in the square.
Malik hid quietly in a corner, from which he could see a part of the square, and he did not dare to go any closer, as that would attract those yellow sand slaves, and there would be no more results except for one more death.
Two, five, ten, and ten minutes of waiting, Malik saw a staggering figure walk up to the square, toward the altar in the center of the square.
Now is the time!
Without hesitation, Malik sprang out, rushing towards the figure with all his speed.
Not only him, but other players also rushed out of various hiding places, trying to snatch the hope of survival from the staggering figure.
Kicking away a yellow sand servant, then dodging sideways, Malik felt as if he was back to his peak at this moment, but he knew that it was just a sudden outburst in an emergency.
From time to time, players were thrown to the ground by those yellow sand slaves, and fell miserably as corpses, Malik could no longer pay attention to the tragic cries in his ears, and he only had that figure in his eyes, the figure with the only hope of survival.
Finally, Malik rushed behind the figure, and with a flying pounce, grabbed one of the other man's legs.
"Give me the magic gems, please!" Malik hugged the other party's legs, "Otherwise, otherwise I'll let you die with me, haha, I can't live anyway, don't you want to live!" ”
"Malik?" The figure didn't attack Malik, but asked suspiciously, then stopped and turned to look at Malik, "It's really you, Malik!" ”
"Avelina!" By the light of the moon, Malik finally saw the figure in front of him, wasn't it the wife who was pushed to the yellow sand slave by his own hands!
"Great, Avelina, it's me, it's me, Malik! Great, you're still alive, honey, do you have magic gems? Malik immediately got up from the ground and pretended to get dressed, "Honey, I've been looking for you, it's great to see that you're okay, and you've got the magic gem, thank God!" ”
"Malik, you, how did you ......"
Before Avelina could finish speaking, Malik grabbed Avelina's hands: "Honey, do you still love me?" I know that you still love me, just as I love you deeply, and you won't watch me die, will you? I've lost more than 10% of my soul energy limit, please, save me, save your husband! ”
Avelina looked at the man in front of her, who had suddenly become stranger, and could see that Malik was very miserable, and there were only two or three pieces of equipment on his body, and all of them were picked up by others, which showed what happened to this man.
But even so, when Malik found out that the person in front of him was his wife, the original appearance of holding her thighs and pleading immediately became her usual high-mindedness, and Avelina didn't even have time to speak, so she heard Malik pouring bitter water there, talking about how hard and miserable she was, without asking her if she was injured or how much her soul had lost.
It was only at this moment that Avelina really realized what kind of ending the love and marriage in the past three years had brought her, and the man in front of her, who only knew how to talk and was self-centered, was no longer the Malik who held her in the palm of her hand and cared for her in her impression.
Avelina shook her palm, the magic gem she had received from Jean in her palm was being held tightly by her, and the cold gem had become the only source of heat in her body at this moment, warming her heart.
Compared to Jean, who did not hesitate to give her hope of survival, the man in front of her, who only wanted to take the gem from his wife, was so unbearable and disgusted to her.
Avelina's fists tightened and loosened, loosened and tightened, and the expression on her face changed several times, but she just didn't say a word.
This silent silence made Malik, who was talking endlessly, also notice something unusual: "Avelina, you, are you still angry? I know that I did it too much before, and I regret it very much, believe me, Avelina, I've been looking for you since then, really, forgive me, Avelina! After saying that, Malik also stretched out his hand, held Avelina's face, and looked at her affectionately.
However, in Malik's eyes, Avelina saw only the fear of death and the humble self-centeredness, and in the eyes of this man, from beginning to end, only himself was reflected.
Avelina closed her eyes in agony, and after a long time, she finally opened them again, and this time, there was no more confusion in the eyes of the female dark elf.
She put the gem in her hand into Malik's hand: "Malik, I hope you live!" ”
"Really, really a magic gem! Great, I knew you loved me, Avelina! Malik looked at the badge several times and said, not noticing that Avelina's face was full of tears.
Looking at the ecstatic man in front of her, Avelina shook her head fiercely, turned around and left.
"Avelina! I love you, my dear! Malik didn't catch up, but stood where he was, said a word to Everina's back, and walked towards the altar.
Facing the yellow sand slaves in the square, Avelina gently wiped away the tears on her face, the magic gem had been given to Malik, and her determination had been made, for her, there was nothing to hesitate about, so nostalgic.
"God will not save those who abandon themselves!" Avelina said to herself, then took out a one-handed dagger that she had picked up by chance on the road and rushed towards the outside of the square.
From now on, she will rely on herself to live!
On the other side, Malik, armed with a magic gem, strode into the palace in the center of the square, arguably the best-preserved building in the entire ruins, with a towering dome that showed the building's status.
In the center of the room, an altar made of gold was quietly placed, and in the center of the altar, a basin made of pure gold was placed, and half of the basin had been filled with magic gems.
"Haha, haha, in the end, I still survived, I'm the best, haha!" Malik smiled and put the magic gem in his hand into the basin, as the light blue magic gem touched the basin, the magic power in the gem was also quickly extracted, part of it enveloped his whole person along Malik's arm, and the other part was absorbed by the basin.
"I did it! Come out, come out! I won! I'm the winner! You promised to give me a reward! Snake of Body! Come out! Malik shouted as he threw his head up at the dome above him.
However, no one answered him, only the pure gold altar in the center of the room, constantly emitting a golden glow.
The golden light grew brighter and brighter, and soon, the entire room was filled with this unnatural light, and finally, to Malik's astonishment, all the light condensed into a large golden half-human form.
"Who's calling me?" The massive half-length figure opened its eyes and stared at the only living person in the room, "Are you calling the great Lord of the Yellow Sands?" ”
Malik, who was frightened by the sudden appearance of the halfling figure and fell to the ground, stammered, "Yes, yes, I, I called, summoned you." ”
"Then you will be my sacrifice!" The summoned halfling took a sharp breath, and its size instantly expanded, filling the entire room tightly, "You will be a part of my body, and you will be glorified forever!" ”
"No, no!!"
A fierce golden light erupted in front of Malik's eyes, and everything in his vision was filled with this intense golden light, but what was surprising was that this light was so dazzling that it did not leak out of the palace in the slightest.
And when Malik was completely swallowed by the huge half-human form, somewhere in the ruins of Shasar, another pillar of light slowly rose to the sky.
"The thirty-seventh magic node has been destroyed!" Yakumo Shi, who sat on top of the dome, played with the statue in his hand, it was a shrunken head, the head looked no different from a human, the only difference was that the head had an inconspicuous depression in the center of the eyebrows, as if it had a third eye on its forehead.
