Chapter 9: A Gift Package from the West
The half-collapsed mine seeped water from time to time, and the sound of dripping water in the hollow added a bit of unsettling to the already gloomy environment. Mo Qianying followed the village chief's son and walked towards the depths of the mine.
There are several points of divergence in this mission, and if the person who comes in does not receive the village chief's side quest, they can only continue to move forward by killing the village chief's son, and then they will have to face an intricate mine maze. And Mo Qianying now has the help of this leading party, which suddenly saves the trouble of exploring the labyrinth, and can enter the core area more quickly.
As the two of them went deeper, the temperature around them became colder and colder. The Thousand Machine Crossbow in Mo Qianying's hand was always in a state of winding, and his eyes were also fixed on the front, beware of the danger that appeared at any time.
"It's here!" The village chief's son whispered and pointed to an open hole in front of him. He seemed to be terrified of the place and did not continue to walk past.
Mo Qianying looked at the white bones around the cave entrance, the rancid breath made him feel sick, but he also knew that he had reached his final destination.
He ignored the cowering village chief's son and went straight into the mine. Compared to the slightly crowded mine tunnel outside, there was indeed a large natural karst cave inside, and the suddenly cheerful space relieved Mo Qianying from the oppressive atmosphere. But he didn't have time to relax, and a shrill laugh rang out as promised.
"Human, what are you doing here?"
A shrill voice echoed in the empty cavern, and Mo Qianying threw down the torch and held the two daggers in his hands.
"I'll end your life." Mo Qianying's gaze glanced differently above the cave, "Come out!" Katis! ”
"Huh? Do you know my name? ”
The voice in the void showed a hint of surprise, but he still didn't show up.
"I don't just know your name, I know where you come from." Mo Qianying kept turning, watching out for enemies that could appear at any moment.
"So you're a lackey of the Holy See? But why is your breath from the Eastern Continent? Could it be that the maggots of the Holy See have even controlled this side? ”
The voice burst into laughter, and the laughter was so sharp that it was a headache. With his fleeting laughter, there was a sudden roar in the cave, and at first glance I thought it was a flood pouring in.
It's finally here!
Mo Qianying's whole body tensed, and his right hand swiped over the storage ring, and an item fell into his hand.
At this moment, countless bats poured out of the four walls of the cave, these bats were about the size of kittens, their red eyes turned into a red tide in the darkness, and dense points of light surged, making people's scalps tingle.
"Haste as the law!"
Mo Qianying's right hand flicked into the air, and the Heavenly Master Talisman that he had just taken out was thrown out in the air, and the raging wind instantly ignited with the spirit rune that shimmered with golden light. A volley of flames erupted in the air, like a sudden sun illuminating the entire cave, and then the fireball expanded rapidly, and the wind overflowed from the fireball, filling the entire space in an instant.
"What is this!"
The shrill voice wailed, instantly drowned out by the bat's screams.
Although these bats are all level 5 ordinary monsters, it seems that there are three hundred of them, which is enough for a small team to wipe out here. In the previous life, Mo Qianying was directly returned by them, and it was not until he was promoted to level 25 and formed a five-person team that he dared to return here.
But now that he had a top-level Spirit Rune Heavenly Master Talisman, he had instantly obtained a level 50 large-range hybrid spell. It does seem like a waste, but it's more than enough to deal with these guys.
The three hundred bats were all within the striking range of the frenzied wind, and I saw hundreds or thousands of damage values floating up in my eyes, and in an instant, the bats were swept away by this powerful hybrid Dao technique. Although these summoned creatures only give a fixed amount of 1 experience at a time, Mo Qianying ate more than 300 experience points alone, and his whole body flashed with golden light, rising from level 5 to level 6, and three of the five skulls of the red name also disappeared.
At the same time as the bats were killed, a black shadow fell in the air and fell to the ground fiercely. Through the light of the fire that had not yet dissipated, I could barely see that it was a slender middle-aged man. But this middle-aged man has blonde hair and blue eyes, as if he is a western face, and with the magnificent dark red cloak on his body, his identity is also revealed.
"Why do you fuse magic! Are you a high-level magician? How can it be! The middle-aged man struggled to turn over, his body covered in burns and scars torn by the wind. He looked at Mo Qianying approaching step by step, due to the effect of the concealment cloak, he couldn't see Mo Qianying's information at all, his dark red eyes gave rise to a trace of fear, and he hurriedly retreated backwards.
"Katis, or should I call you Duke of the Red Moon." Mo Qianying stopped five steps in front of him with a dagger that flashed with cold light, "In order to avoid the pursuit of the Holy Light Holy See, I teleported to the Huaxia District a hundred years ago, and was awakened from my slumber by the miners here two years ago, and now my strength is ...... After sucking the blood of those miners, it should have been restored to its original twenty percent. ”
Kartis's eyes widened, a little incomprehensible that the person in front of him could know him so well, and even his own state. This was the first time he felt fear, even the Great Pope who faced the Holy Light Sect back then did not feel this way, for him who was accustomed to standing in the perspective of the superior, it was not a good feeling to be seen through all the secrets.
"What the hell do you want to do?" Katis's voice trembled a little, because he couldn't feel the true strength of the other party.
"All I want is one thing you have." Mo Qianying smiled, her attitude was very sincere.
Katis was shocked in his heart, and with a hint of luck, he said, "Do you want my treasure?" Back then, the Holy Light Holy See just destroyed my castle, and there are still many treasures in my cellar, as long as you let me go......"
"You're wrong Lord Red Moon." Mo Qianying directly interrupted him, "What I want is something that helped you escape the pursuit of the Holy See back then. ”
"How do you know......" Katis was desperate, he couldn't imagine that the other party even knew his biggest secret, and the last trace of luck in his heart was gone. In desperation, the Duke of the Red Moon, Katis struggled to get up, it was impossible for him to hand over the things, so all that was left was to fight with all his might.
Mo Qianying saw him put on this posture, and immediately prepared to fight with all his might. At this time, he didn't have a team of five, nor did he have the hidden weapon full of five storage rings, and some only had two daggers in his hand. But it was enough for him, although Katis, as a level 20 boss, has 10 times the attributes of players of the same level, the attack of the Heavenly Master Fu just now reduced Katis's blood volume by nearly two-thirds, and Mo Qianying immediately estimated that he now has about 1000 at most.
Kartis is known as a duke in the end, and he used to be a level 100 boss, although his attributes are fully weakened at this time, but all his skills and special abilities are still there. As soon as Mo Qianying rushed up, Katis shook his cloak and suddenly turned into a group of shadow bats and shrouded Mo Qianying.
Mo Qianying did not retreat but advanced, his steps accelerated violently, and at the moment when he was about to be caught by the bats, he flashed sideways with a sliding shovel. The bats immediately threw themselves back in the air, and they were about to catch up with Mo Qianying, but Mo Qianying rolled on the spot and threw something with fire into the bat group.
There was a roar in the air, and Katis, who had turned into a swarm of bats, was thrown out. What Mo Qianying threw out just now only caused him 1 point of damage, but the shockwave sent out made his mind dazed for a while.
Mo Qianying smiled and threw away the black powder in his hand, and looked at Kartis opposite with a smile on his face. He had just brought in a few bags to keep for the trick of Katis, and the only thing he was afraid of was the other party's move.
Katis stood up with a gloomy face, his hands raised violently, and two blood-red rays of light suddenly erupted, and then turned into a crimson torrent and rushed towards Mo Qianying. Mo Qianying's right hand raised the Thousand Machine Crossbow, and the Instant Shadow skill was activated at the same time. Before Katis finished his skills, he felt a sudden chill behind him, and six arrows flashing with cold light stretched out from his chest.
A string of golden -50 damage floated above Katis's head, and this blow triggered the armor-piercing effect of the Thousand Machine Crossbow, directly knocking out more than 300 points of Kartis's health.
Katis's skills came to an abrupt halt, and his figure shook for a moment, and he immediately threw his head back and let out a roar of rage. The crimson circle of light suddenly erupted around him, and Mo Qianying's eyes quickly thrust the dagger into the ground with both hands, and the whole person lay down against the ground. The shockwave swept across the ground, shaking him to the ground. The 500 points of blood that were hard piled up by the equipment were instantly cut in half by three consecutive shock waves.
As soon as Katis's shockwave ended, Mo Qianying immediately stood up and stabbed the dagger into Katis's back, and the dagger in his hand suddenly danced continuously, instantly taking away 300 points of Katis's HP.
Katis staggered from the barrage of blows, and looked back with a venignant look. His whole body suddenly emitted a bright red mist, his originally shriveled cheeks slowly bulged, and his dim eyes lit up with a breathtaking red light. He has been mutated all his life, and he suddenly turned around and grabbed it. Mo Qianying was knocked out of more than 200 points of blood by his claw, and suddenly there was only a little blood skin left.
Blood Resurgence, an explosion state that Kartis enters when the last 10% of his HP remains.
Mo Qianying smiled confidently at first, then turned around and ran.
"Stop him!" With a roar of rage, Katis leapt into the air and swept towards the fleeing Ink Thousand Shadows.
Mo Qianying looked at the entrance of the cave, and the village chief's son's eyes flashed red, and he opened his mouth to show his fangs at him. But he seemed to have expected it, and with a reasonable expression, he raised his hand and three crossbow arrows were shot, which were accurately nailed to the head of the village chief's son. With the stun of the crossbow headshot, Mo Qianying slipped past him, just in time to dodge a claw strike from Katis.
"Get out of your bucket!"
Enraged, Katis shook the village chief's son, who had not yet recovered his strength, and his figure wrapped in a dark red cloak once again turned into a group of shadow bats and chased after the fleeing Mo Qianying.
Mo Qianying heard a noisy voice behind him, and without even looking at it, he lit the gunpowder cartridge in his hand and threw it over. Listening to the sound of the position is a necessary operation skill for every Tang master, and the powder cartridge made an arc and fell accurately into the bat swarm, and then Katis was shaken back to its original shape in a violent explosion.
"I'm going to eat you!" Katis scrambled to his feet, anger making the last of his sanity disappear, and he wanted nothing more than to pinch the despicable human in front of him to death.
The Vampire Duke's flight speed was extremely fast, but it became an obstacle in the winding tunnel, but the nimble Mo Qianying used the terrain to constantly dodge, and a few times when Katis was about to catch up with him, he would be thrown away by the corner that suddenly appeared, like a slippery loach.
Mo Qianying kept an eye on the terrain on both sides as he ran, and when he turned a corner, his eyes lit up and he rushed over at a faster speed. Katis followed, biting behind him without letting go.
"Die, ants!" Katis pounced, the claws on his hands flashing with a strange red light, and he couldn't help but smile excitedly when he saw that he was about to touch the back of Mo Qianying's heart.
In the next second, Mo Qianying disappeared from the spot, and then a loud explosion was heard overhead. Katis subconsciously looked up, and the wooden frame that had been used to support the top of the mine tunnel had been blown off, and the entire rock wall had collapsed.
"No!"
With a high-pitched whistle, Katis waved his hands away from the falling stones, but the stones fell so densely that a cascade of damage floated from him, and he struggled for only a few seconds before he was overwhelmed by the rubble.
Mo Qianying sat down against the wall with a worried face, and he flashed behind Katis with a fleeting shadow, and then threw the last few tubes of black powder out. As far as he can remember, the mine was set up to be destructible, and he figured out the location and led Kartis here, hoping to kill him through the destruction.
However, before Mo Qianying could breathe, there was a violent vibration from the collapsed pile of rocks, and a dry and pale hand suddenly stretched out from the pile of rubble, and the flying stones smashed towards Mo Qianying.
"You won't die!" Mo Qianying couldn't help but let out an angry roar, and had to sigh that the system's damage determination was really erratic.
Having broken out of the rubble, Katis had lost the blessing of blood resurrection, and his appearance was rapidly aging due to severe injuries, and his disheveled hair and tattered cloak made him look like a down-and-out aristocratic old man on the street. However, he still managed to maintain the demeanor of a high-level blood clan, and he straightened his waist and glared at Mo Qianying with a fierce look.
"Don't you want it?" Katis took off a pitch-black ring in his hand and held it up in front of Mo Qianying's eyes, "As long as you let me go, it's yours, otherwise I don't mind dying with you." ”
Mo Qianying's eyes flickered, and she was silent for a while, then suddenly slapped her forehead and looked up and laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" Katis frowned, "Do you think you can kill me?" I've seen that you're not a high-level magician, just a despicable human who knows a little about hand-to-hand combat, and I'm confident that I won't lose to you. ”
"I'm just laughing at myself." Mo Qianying slowly took out the dagger and turned to Katis, "I was so involved in playing just now that I almost forgot one thing, you are really dead when you die." ”
Kartis looked at him puzzled, and suddenly felt the killing intent that was gradually becoming stronger from him, he couldn't help but take a step back, and shouted at Mo Qianying with some fear: "With your current strength, even if you can kill me, you will die yourself!" ”
"Correct!" Mo Qianying activated the instantaneous shadow skill, and instantly flashed in front of Katis, and at the same time, the dagger in his hand also stabbed out.
Startled, Katis instinctively raised his right hand, his claws glowing red across his chest. At the same time, Mo Qianying's dagger also stabbed into his heart.
The blood trough of the two bottomed out at the same time.
"For ...... What the? Katis stared at Mo Qianying staring at him staring blankly, and then fell limply.
"Because I'm just hanging back to the novice village!" Mo Qianying replied with a smile, but unfortunately Kartis couldn't hear it anymore.
