Volume 4: The Swan Song (Remastered) Chapter 16: Caught in the Pit (1)
Zeberu, who is only one foot away from the hero level, is strong enough to crush anyone present, except for the two heavily armed undead warriors, the other minions can really be said to be injured when they rub and die when they touch it. In addition, he was beaten out of fire by the white bone knight before, and now he wields that machete and turns into a human form, oh no, a lizard-type harvester, and his combat power is called a ferocious.
Of course, Zeberu can be so powerful, and it is inseparable from Yu Bin. Although Yu Bin doesn't have any powerful potions on his body, he has the seed of an oak tree! For the elves, this thing is a medium for resurrection, and the rich power of nature in it allows the druids to replenish enough life force for their dead companions without expending their own strength, so as to achieve the effect of resurrection. But for Yu Bin, this thing can also be used as a small blood bag, crushed and slapped it on Zeberu's body, as long as it is not fatally injured, or it will be a good man in a few seconds.
It's just that this kind of treatment does not make good use of the natural power in the oak seed, almost more than half of it will be wasted, and the health of the body is restored in this way, in fact, it is only a temporary illusion, although the power of nature re-replenishes the vitality of the body, but it cannot replenish the lost blood, nor can it eliminate the exhaustion of the user's soul. As the forces of nature replenished Zeberu's life force time and time again, the lizardman's resistance to the Oak Seed increased until it could never be recovered.
At that time, the fatigue and weakness accumulated in the previous battle will burst out in one go! In the history of elves, it is common to see some people who do not hesitate to use a large amount of natural forces in order to defeat strong enemies, and improve their strength in a short period of time.
Zeberu didn't know what terrible side effects this would bring to him, he only knew that with the help of Yu Bin, he was like an incarnate god who never tired, he could be unscrupulous, do whatever he wanted, and trample those undead and elves under his feet!
Under the protection of Zeberu, who broke out with all his might, Yu Bin entered the temple in the center of the cemetery smoothly, and the two undead warriors wanted to rush over to stop them, but helplessly, the few tree men summoned by the druid elders dragged them to death, and in order to prevent those elves from approaching the temple, they also had a considerable distance from the temple.
"Guard the door, don't let anyone disturb me!" Yu Bin threw down a sentence, and then rushed in without looking back.
The interior of the temple looks very austere, except for a staircase leading to the ground on each side, and only one statue is erected in the center of the main hall. The three-meter-tall statue is carved from obsidian, depicting an elven man standing proudly with a long sword in his hand. There is no doubt that this is the statue of the Sun Elf Prince Lacorette.
Yu Bin just glanced at it roughly, and then casually chose a staircase and rushed down.
After walking down the stairs for about ten meters, until the shouting and killing sound above his head was almost inaudible, a huge tomb appeared in front of Yu Bin. The entire burial chamber is a square and covers an area of almost more than 300 square meters. Although the tomb is empty, it is still possible to see that many of the undead have been active here, and it is likely that the undead who poured out of the temple are usually located.
At each of the four corners of the tomb is a figure solidified from white bones, which is an archer, a warrior, a knight and a mage.
Other than that, there was nothing left in the entire tomb, let alone the coffin that Yu Bin expected to use to carry Lacorette's body. Yu Bin ruled out the possibility of his wrong choice for the first time, because on the other side of the tomb, the same staircase explained everything.
Before Bin could figure out anything, the four white-bone figures had begun to tremble visibly, and the dust that had covered their bodies for tens of thousands of years continued to fall, revealing the jade-white bones below.
"Don't be so old-fashioned! What age is it, still playing this kind of trick! "As described in countless film and television dramas or third-rate novels, these white skeleton figures are clearly deliberately placed here as a device to defend against intruders. To be honest, Yu Bin is no stranger to such situations, but that doesn't mean he likes to participate in person.
According to the normal process, it is undoubtedly necessary for him to defeat the four white bone statues, and then get clues from the loot to continue deeper into the tomb. But Yu Bin didn't want to follow the other party's rhythm!
"Who's in the mood to play with you about this!" took out a handful of oak seeds, Yu Bin didn't care about being distressed, and sprinkled them directly on the ground, and then crushed them with his feet. The eruption of natural power immediately reacted violently with the stone slab that had been thoroughly penetrated by the power of death beneath his feet, and the two colors of green and black continued to circulate on the surface of the stone slab.
Then, Yu Bin took out a few bottles of potions of different colors, shook his hand and smashed them on the ground.
"Shadow Corrosion Elixir! Synthetic poisons! Flame Catalytic Elixir! It's a pity that there are no additives for forging, so remember to bring a few bottles next time! While throwing it, he kept taking out more potions from the space bag, and Yu Bin smashed them to the ground one by one without any distress, just for a short while, and the potions lost because of this were converted into gold coins at least more than five hundred!
This is what he learned from Maltan in the first place. Just like that miser did at the beginning, there is no problem in this world that cannot be solved with gold, and if there is, it is that you don't have enough gold coins thrown out!
The collision between the forces of nature and the forces of death had already greatly damaged the inside of the slate, and those potions further caused the slab to become brittle, and there were even obvious signs of corrosion on the surface, as well as large and small potholes. Seeing this, Yu Bin's eyes lit up, and he pulled out the black wing blade and dug down at the stone slab under his feet.
The thickness of the stone slab under his feet was not enough to make Yu Bin desperate, and it only took less than half a minute for Yu Bin to dig through the rock layer composed of stone slabs and touch the soft soil. At this time, the four white bone statues had just regained their freedom and were heading towards Yu Bin, their slow movements and heavy footsteps could not disturb Yu Bin at all, and he easily estimated that he had at least a second and a half minutes to use.
Pulling out the breath of death, the two weapons were used as hoes for digging by Yu Bin, desperately digging deeper, he firmly believed that the target he was looking for was under this tomb.
When he discovered that this cemetery would automatically produce undead soldiers, Yu Bin was already at least seventy percent sure that Lacorette's body was sealed in this cemetery. Because the resurrection speed of the undead soldier is by no means the effect that the death power that pervades the secret realm can bring, even if the death power is more intense, the speed at which the corpse becomes an undead cannot be so fast. The only explanation is that there is a powerful source of death within this cemetery, just like the territorial core of Naxxramas, and this source of death is even strong enough to support the constant attrition of these soldiers.
In addition to the resentful Lacorette, Yu Bin couldn't think of any other possibilities. What's more, he had carefully observed outside the elven camp before, and the existence of death power was almost invisible in those long-eared camps, as if the entire camp was artificially isolated from the surrounding space, but this isolation was not some kind of spatial magic, because Zeberu could break into the camp and kill elves without hindrance.
Groov! The touch coming from the rune sword made Yu Bin sure that he had dug up something hard, and he used the black wing blade to quickly pluck away the dirt, and what appeared in front of him was a hard piece of iron. As more dirt was turned over, the things that Yu Bin had found were finally revealed.
It was a well-made armor, although Yu Bin only dug out the chest and the helmet, but judging from the craftsmanship and complex groove patterns used on the armor, there was no doubt that it was the creation of the ancient elves. The complex magic array and armor can be fused together by using the Yin engraving technique to form continuous lines on the surface of the armor, and then injecting the alloy smelted by magic materials. Compared with the yang engraving process used on a large scale by various races today, this casting technique is more sophisticated, the requirements for the craftsman are higher, and of course, the effect is better.
And this armor in front of him, even in the First Age period, should belong to the top-level equipment. Buried in the earth for tens of thousands of years, and constantly eroded by the forces of death, even so, the texture of the magic alloy on the surface of the armor still did not change much, and even the surface of the armor was not stained with any stains.
Yu Bin guessed that this was the armor worn by the Japanese elf prince Lacorette at that time, and only this genius who was rare in the elf clan in 10,000 years was qualified to let those elf craftsmen and master craftsmen elaborate such a set of equipment for him.
Although it is strange why the armor that was supposed to be buried in the coffin with the corpse appeared here, after all, these undead could even build such a large catacomb, and it was not difficult to make a coffin for their master. Yu Bin thought that if he went deeper, he would eventually reach another real burial chamber that was completely enclosed underground, and many of the deceased would design the tomb like this in order to protect their corpses. Considering that Lacorette was murdered and died in the first place, Yu Bin thought that the Sun Elf prince should not have much time to think about his future, and it was probably impossible to arrange this tomb so delicately with his subordinates and the undead who were awakened by him.
It was with this in mind that Yu Bin did not hesitate to risk being caught by the white bone figure, frantically digging the stone slab under his feet, hoping to find the real tomb.
Just as Yu Bin was about to ignore the armor and continue to dig deeper, the magic lines on the armor suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and a magic barrier suddenly appeared, and Yu Bin was wrapped in it, and at the same time, it also prevented the four white bone figures from approaching.
"Huh?" The sudden change made Yu Bin a little surprised, he didn't expect that after tens of thousands of years, the magic array on this armor could still be activated.
"Hehehe! Hahaha! I've been waiting for tens of thousands of years, and I've finally waited for this day! ”
At the moment when the magic barrier was completely formed, a voice full of evil aura suddenly echoed in the tomb, this voice seemed to have a hypnotic effect, at the same time as it appeared, Yu Bin suddenly felt that his soul fire produced a very comfortable feeling, as if his whole person was soaked in a hot spring, which made people want to just think about nothing, completely relax, give everything to the water that surrounds the body, let go of the mind, and enjoy happiness.
Yu Bin immediately realized the enchanting effect in this voice, if it weren't for the fact that his soul strength had now exceeded three hundred points, I am afraid that before he realized the danger, he would have completely sunk into the illusion created by this voice, and then became a toy in the hands of the other party without resistance.
"Oh, a little reptile, how can you stay awake under my power?" As if surprised that Bin didn't indulge in hallucinations, the voice said in a playful tone, "Humble existence, since you have rejected my kindness, then you can stay awake and see for yourself how I can be reborn!" ”
A dark blue liquid suddenly rose from the eyes of the helmet, quickly covering Yu Bin's left hand. Under Yu Bin's perception, this liquid seemed to have an independent consciousness and life, constantly seizing control of his right hand while advancing towards his shoulder.
Suddenly, a loud noise came from outside the magic barrier, and it turned out to be the warrior-like white bone figure who slashed at the barrier with the magic light with the battle axe in his hand, and the resulting sound waves echoed in the empty tomb, causing the towering zenith to be shaken off a lot of dust.
"Do you pathetic fools think that this little power can ruin my plans? Stop dreaming! It's been tens of thousands of years since I died, and this time, I'm not going to fail again! The voice obviously had a lot of hatred for the white bone figure, and Yu Bin could even feel the anger in his words that could not be concealed, as well as a slight trace of fear.
Yu Bin mobilized his soul power, wanting to stop the dark blue water from taking over his body, and glanced back at the barrier.
I don't know when, the four white bone figures have completely changed their appearance, and the original gray bones have broken free from the ashes formed over the years, revealing the milky white bones inside, which look extremely round and smooth.
And what surprised Yu Bin even more was that the soul fire that emerged from the eyes of these white bone figures was not at all like the undead with a dark blue color, but as milky white as the purest holy light!
At this moment, countless fragments of memories are intertwined in Bin's mind, and the clues that are usually not connected at all are in a critical situation, as if they have found the invisible silk thread, and they are quickly strung into a complete chain.
