Chapter 20: Three Basement Floors

Chen Yuezai carefully looked at the two skeleton soldiers, felt the specific strength of the other party, and then frowned, obviously the strength of these two skeleton soldiers did not reach the level that Chen Yue expected, and it was far from reaching, at most scaring low-level adventurers.

These two skeletons were not even as strong as the lowest-tier cannon fodder skeletons in Naxxramas, and with their extremely fragile bodies, they were not even qualified to be used as cannon fodder.

"Kel'thugad, this skeleton is too weak."

"Master, it's a little weak, but after being strengthened by dark magic, it should barely be able to reach the lowest level of cannon fodder."

Kel'thugad's answer was undoubtedly a great piece of good news, which made Chen Yue nod his head, and he planned to list the resurrected skeletons as reserve cannon fodder troops, so that the psychics of the Cursed God Cult could be strengthened and then added to Naxxramas.

The next focus was once again on the spider demon, and Anubrekan sent its carrion scarab beetle to enter the underground three floors of the mage tower in advance to check the specific situation inside.

But the carrion scarlet scarab beetle has gone and has not returned, which made Chen Yue relieve, although the strength of the carrion scarlet scarab is limited, but it is also stronger than the Mithril Golem that lacks energy, coupled with their indestructible sharp teeth and extremely hard carapace, even the diamond golem can maneuver.

If there were enough of them, the Diamond Golem would be able to eat them clean, and even Kel'thugad would have a headache in the face of the huge number of carrion scarabs.

Chen Yue prevented Anubrekan from continuing to send carrion scarting corpse scarabs, it is not easy to cultivate elite carrion scarlet scarabs, and they can't all be sacrificed here in vain.

"Shrinking Turtle, when we dig up the entire mage tower, I'll see where else you can hide." Chen Yue stared at the mage tower in front of him who was gradually revealing the bottom of the tower.

"Anubrekan, you go directly around the main entrance and dig a tunnel to connect the three underground floors of the Mage Tower, so that we should be able to bypass most of the magic traps."

Frontal assault is not something that a wise man would do, Chen Yue has played a lot of real-time strategy games, and has his unique insights in tactical play.

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse and the Death Knights serve as the guards of the Spider Demon, and they are not helpful in digging holes, but if anyone dares to sneak up on the Spider Demon, then they must pass the level first.

Peachwick sat on the dunes in a state of interest, his huge arms playing with its hooks, his eyes fixed on the movement of the mage tower, and if there was any disturbance, he would be greeted by a thunderous attack from Parchwick.

The night passed quickly.

At dawn the next day, the entire mage tower, including the secondary tower, had been excavated, and even the tunnel connecting the three underground floors had been half excavated, and as more and more spider demons joined, the tunnel would soon be opened.

During the period, it was calm, and the mastermind behind the scenes seemed to have evaporated from the world, and did not stop Chen Yue's excavation work anymore, obviously planning to continue to compete with Chen Yue and them on the third underground floor.

Chen Yue stood at the entrance to the third basement floor, stroking the two-handed sword in his hand: Apocalypse, and controlling the low-level undead creatures in Naxxramas to carry out a tentative attack.

Apocalypse is an ancient greatsword forged by the vampire demons of Nasrezm, capable of spreading violence, pestilence, and death. Apocalypse fell into the hands of a Tirispha mage, but his inability to control the sword's devastating power led to tragedy, and people soon shuddered at its name.

Soon after, Medivan, the fallen guardian of Tirisfa, sent a terrifying Dark Knight minions to claim the sword. They hid the Apocalypse in the catacombs of the Tower of Karazhan.

Nasrezm may not be familiar to players, but players will definitely know it by another title: Dreadlord. They are among the high-ranking members of the Burning Legion, and the Apocalypse was forged by the Dreadlord.

Similarly, the Cursed Throat of the Blood Death Knight is also an artifact from the Burning Legion, which can be said to be an evil weapon used by demons.

After a series of tasks, Apocalypse became the artifact of the evil death knight, in reality, Chen Yue can use it to control a large number of undead creatures, and at the same time, he can also summon various powerful undead monsters, and even use Apocalypse to summon an army of the dead, and directly destroy a legion with his own strength.

For the sake of safety, Kel'thugad and they didn't dare to let Chen Yue participate in the sneak attack plan of the tunnel, Chen Yue could only retreat and serve as a frontal feint, and Pachvik and Kelthugad were even more inseparable, protecting him to the death, and the attack in the tunnel could only be undertaken by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse and Anubrekan.

Chen Yue began to check the terrain of the three underground floors of the Mage Tower through the perspective of the undead creatures he controlled, many places had collapsed and buried, and the only passage was also covered with traces of battle.

The steel-cast doors had already been destroyed in ancient times, and some of them were even directly twisted and deformed, as if they had been forcibly screwed by some powerful force.

The steel gate, which had lost the connection of the spell circuit, could not withstand the erosion of time, and had long since become decaying, without the might of the steel gate on the top of the tower.

"Scarabs?"

Chen Yue looked at the scarab that suddenly appeared in front of him and was stunned, and then his eyes went dark, and the undead he was controlling were devoured by the dense scarabs, which instantly made him retreat from the state of controlling the undead.

"No, that's not a real scarab, it's a scarab-type arcane golem."

Chen Yue said in a deep voice, these scarabs did make him feel a little tricky.

In the corridor at the entrance of the third basement floor of the Mage Tower, many pitch-black scarab beetles emerged, and the black pressed piece quickly devoured all the undead creatures that entered it.

These scarab beetles are all obsidian-like crystals, matching the black rock material used in the topmost room of the Mage Tower, and their bodies are so hard that ordinary attacks can't hurt them at all.

"No wonder Anubrekan's carrion scarabs will never return, these scarabs are not inferior in strength to carrion scarlets." Chen Yue said suddenly, it's not that the carrion corpse scarab is useless, but that the other party is too strong.

In the case that the number of the two sides was not far apart, the carrion scarlet scarab still had a chance to fight, but now Chen Yue looked at the obsidian scarab surging out of the underground tunnel, and could only meet it in person.

If they fill in with the undead creatures, Chen Yue and them will definitely suffer heavy casualties, and the undead creatures in Naxxramas are all the elite of the Scourge, and they can't be wasted here.

"Withered and withered!"

Chen Yue raised the Apocalypse Great Sword and released a bright red magic circle towards the ground at Yongdaokou, corroding this piece of land.

This circle deals a large amount of Shadow damage to all targets in the area for its duration.

At the same time, when Chen Yue is standing in the area of this circle, his Scourge Strike skill can attack all nearby enemies.

A large number of obsidian scarabs were corroded by the shadow energy in the magic circle, and when they were attacked by the shadow claws that emerged from the ground, their bodies were immediately covered with cracks, and as Chen Yue's skills continued to be released, they quickly shattered into a push of black rock.

To be on the safe side, Chen Yue did not choose the natural disaster strike skill with a melee range, but instead chose the Shadow Claw, a derivative skill of natural disaster strike.
