Chapter 25: The Voyeur (1)
Since there were no better clues, Xiao Yan and the others followed Behemoth's advice and followed her to move quickly underground.
Behemoth was familiar with every junction and cave, as if it were her family's garden.
"In a moment, we will encounter the Faceless One, the servant of the Lord of the Abyss. They are fast-moving warriors, able to travel through the void and time, immune to damage for a certain amount of time, and the strongest of them can even freeze a slice of time and space. ”
Behemoth spoke at a steady pace as she went.
"Even more terrifying is Beopsus. A monster made of tentacles and eyes. The weakest of this group is on par with the fishmen, and the most powerful are almost demigods. ”
"Sarasas, for example?" Galadia asked.
Behemoth's body shuddered violently, "Yes, Sarasas is one of them. ”
"And what the hell is this place?" Xiao Yan suddenly felt that a strong sense of oppression had come from all directions, and the enemy was not far away.
"Since you woke me up, I guess the situation has developed to the worst level." Behemoth turned to look at the four of them, "Human, this is my homeland, deeper underground than the underground city of 'Emanleye'. ”
"Beopsus' lair, the Crying Crypt, an intricate labyrinth of immense proportions."
"You're standing on the third level of the Screaming Crypt. From here, down the nine floors, they all belong to the relics left behind by another more ancient and powerful civilization. We also refer to the Crawling Crypt as an ancient ruin, but little is known about the civilization it belongs to. ”
"Hurry up, we have a stronghold on the upper floor. We must get there before we are surrounded. Behemoth shouted.
A dark and evil aura appeared more and more clearly in front of the five.
"Be careful, it's a Sartre." Valkyrie was on guard, "I can't mistake their smell. Behemoth, where you took us there are your Fallen people entrenched. ”
"It seems...... That is true. Behemoth came to the mouth of a cave and looked into it sadly.
A roar came from the cavern, followed by heavy footsteps.
"Pisasius? Is that you? Behemoth asked.
Out of the hole came a burly monster armed with a tomahawk.
He had the horns of an antelope, the tail of a lion, the hooves of a cow and the torso of a human, and held a tomahawk in each hand.
"Uh...... Roar...... Yes! Pisasius's eyes had no pupils, and he could only see the huge whites of his eyes, acting like the walking dead.
"Pisasius. Race: Sartre. Attributes: Strength 85, Agility 60, Stamina 55, Perception 50, Intelligence 35, Spirit 35.
Special Skill 1: Peer Leader. Health is increased by an additional 2500 points.
Special Skill 2: ??
Special Skill 3: ?? ”
"Pisasius is one of our spoopers, a very brave and worthy warrior." Behemoth said to Xiao Yan and the others, "At the last moment, he and some of his companions rushed to the relay station on the second floor to secure a way out for all of us. ”
"He's guarding one of the four powerful ancient relics we've found, and it's a very powerful piece of equipment. will help us survive. ”
"Let's fight. We will be able to pass through after defeating him, and we will be strengthened with supplies. ”
……
Xiao Yan and the other four did not start immediately, but exchanged opinions with each other.
This Sartre, called Pisasius, is not particularly powerful, and if it is one-on-one, it will indeed pose some threat, but there is no suspense that the four strong men present will work together to defeat him.
The problem is that it is not known whether Behemoth's words contain a trap or a conspiracy, and you can't believe her just because she is good-looking......
Pisasius didn't wait for Xiao Yan and them to attack, and pounced directly on Behemoth.
"Arcane! Repelled! Galadia's eyes were quick, and the golden energy condensed on the bow and shot out a golden light, and Pisasius was shot by an arrow and took two steps back.
"Consume it before melee with him!" Xiao Yan took out his iron throwing gun, gently flicked it in his hand, and threw it like a meteor.
The spear swept into the wind, instantly piercing the chest of the stalled Pisasius. This Sartre was immediately hit hard.
"Not bad! Shoot him in the leg first and stop him! Valkyrie exclaimed. Flames swirled and tumbled across her golden spear, then a red streamer that pierced Pisasius's right leg.
"Whew!" Sartre let out an unintelligible roar, drew his spear and threw it to the ground, then pounced.
His hooves moved so quickly that even after the terrible wounds he had suffered just now, he rushed to Freya in an instant.
"Frost! Freeze him! Freya raised her staff and spun gracefully, and ice and storm swept in, with her as the center, and everything nearby was frozen in a thick layer of ice.
Pisasius found it difficult to even move, and let out a strange roar from his throat, throwing the two tomahawks in a whirlwind with all his might.
Xiao Yan and Valkyrie blocked the axe's flank attack from left and right, creating a gap for Galadia and Freya to attack.
"Arcane! Burst shot! Three strings sounded, and a series of arrows from Galadia fell on Sartre, piercing his flesh one after another.
When Pisatius easily broke free from the freezing effect of the slowdown, Xiao Yan finally rushed up to fight him in close combat. Pisatius, who had lost his battle axe, grabbed a war hammer from a nearby box and smashed it down on Xiao Yan. Hearing only a muffled sound, Xiao Yan had already firmly caught the war hammer with both hands.
"Do you want to see who's stronger?" Xiao Yan fought hard for the war hammer, and even faintly overwhelmed Pisatius.
Just then, Galadia and Valkyrie flanked them from both flanks and struck Pisasius on his unprotected back.
Under the siege of four men, the battle was short and brutal. Pisatius's legs were quickly severed, and he suffered serious injuries to his back.
……
"Behemoth!" Pisasius, who could only scream, suddenly called out Behemoth's name clearly, and then he fell to his knees with a "boom" and bruises.
"Wait a minute!" Behemoth hurried over, "Pisasius, do your will and soul still belong to you?" ”
Xiao Yan and the others gave in slightly, but they still looked at the two strangers vigilantly.
"It's just that on the eve of death you can be liberated." Pisasius said as he spat out blue blood, "Seeing that you are still so beautiful...... It's just wonderful. I don't know how much time has passed......"
Pisasius took out a golden shard and handed it to Behemoth, "The rest is in the hands of the other three, and they ...... They should end up the same as me. ”
"Since you still maintain the glory and nobility of Emmanleye, please give them a relief." Pisasius took Behemoth's hand and "freed them from the voyeur's oath ......"
Pisasius's hand slipped and fell completely out of life.
"Be careful!" Galadia suddenly grabbed Behemoth and pulled her aside.
A large mass of tentacles suddenly tore through Pisasius's chest and swarmed out of it, rushing towards Behemoth.
"Freezing Storm!" Freya instantly unleashed a powerful spell, and a powerful ice blast exploded in the tentacles, shattering the tentacles into ice foam.
"He was possessed by Beopsus." Behemoth glanced at the golden shard left in his hand, "The occupied host will gain immortality and lose the consciousness of self, and live in endless despair and emptiness until death gives him the final relief." ”
Xiao Yan felt that Behemoth's tone was full of despair.
"Take a look at those boxes." Behemoth said, "We've gathered four pieces of equipment from ancient ruins that can make a mighty warrior more ferocious and resilient. Hope it helps. ”
Xiao Yan first looked at Pisatius's corpse, and only found some common points for everyone to divide equally. But there is indeed a harvest in the storage boxes made of unknown metal in the caves.
"Emmanleyer's Oracle Helmet. Grade: Epic. Attributes: Stamina +5, Perception +5, Intelligence +5.
Effect 1: Increases Evasion Chance by 2% and Critical Strike Chance by 2%.
Equipment Requirements: More than 60 Strength.
Set Effect: Unsealed. Requires Emmanley's Leggings of Doom, Emmanley's Valiant Gauntlets, and Emmanleyer's Lion King's Breastplate. ”
"You can pay 2,000 generic points to get information on the Epic Tier Set."
This is the first time Xiao Yan has seen an epic level suit. It is said that the pieces of the Epic rank are inferior to the equipment of the Dark Gold and Silver grades, but it is better because many of the Epic Gear can be set together, and once they are assembled, they can get additional special effect bonuses.
Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment and did not pay for the common point of inquiry, but asked his teammates.
"I want to get this piece of equipment and be able to pay for a piece of blue equipment and universal points. If anyone wants to, you can bid together. ”
"This equipment has no value to me." Freya said, "I accept the compensation package for Universal Point. If there's something that suits me next, I'd like to get priority. ”
"No problem." Xiao Yan said, and then asked Valkyrie's opinion, "What about your opinion?" ”
"We're going to raid a few more strongholds and face an unknown enemy." Valkyrie thought for a moment: "This equipment is not bad for me, but in such a dangerous and unpredictable mission, I think it is better to prioritize strengthening the strength of MT to improve our probability of survival." Even though it's a temporary squad, you have priority as the main T. I can accept compensation for blue gear and generic points. ”
Galadia also has no opinion, her current helmet is quite good, the quality exceeds this equipment, but it can't be a set. What's more, the power conditions required by the Oracle Helmet were too harsh on her. The most important thing is that she borrowed a large amount of generic points from Xiao Yan before the start of this world and has not yet paid it back!
In the end, Xiao Yan paid a total of 4,000 general points and a Ranger helmet to Freya and Valkyrie to get this equipment, and Galadia's part was directly deducted from the arrears. If this rhythm continues, he will definitely be bankrupt by the time Xiao Yan picks up the 4 pieces of equipment, and then he will have to owe Galadia a lot of generic points.
