Chapter Ninety-Five: The Darkness Clears
The appearance of the four of them also triggered the boss, and the fat mother body suddenly shook violently, and various beetles began to emerge from all corners of the underground cavern, wriggling and submerging the fat mother, while other larger, about the size of watermelons, crawled towards them.
"By the way, how did you get here, I don't seem to see you following from behind." Xia Chiyu said, waving his staff and releasing a curtain of fire in front of him, and the four of Su Xing and Gu Qinyan immediately stood behind him.
"It's a long story, but because you solved the puzzle, my side was able to move forward, and the zombies broke through the church door." Gu Qinyan said, pointing to the awakening: "We solved the puzzle, and then we ran into this guy." ”
Wake pointed and explained, "I was walking on the balcony when I came across a bug, and after defeating it, I was knocked out of a hole in the wall by it, and I went all the way, and then I ran into this guy." ”
"Anyway, let's see how this boss fights first, okay!?" Donna said with some hysteria that those watermelon-sized beetles had already crawled in front of them, densely packed in a large area, and then passed through the fire curtain laid by Xia Chiyu.
The beetles were ignited and continued to move closer to them, then suddenly exploded, splattering rancid slime.
"Well, even if I don't know if the slime hurts, I don't want to be splashed." Emily said, slamming her sword into the ground with both hands, and the sword slash burst from the ground, splitting into four and pounced on the swarm, the beetle was shocked and flew away, and then exploded in mid-air, the acid splashing like a dart.
"It seems that the setting of these beetles is that they will explode directly when attacked, regardless of the attack power." Xia Chiyu explained, and then raised his hand to open up a spiritual force field in front of them, blocking the slime that splattered over.
"Woohoo!" The sound of being corroded sounded, and some holes were corroded on Xia Chiyu's spiritual force field, and green slime dripped from the gap, Xia Chiyu suddenly frowned: "Oh, isn't it, even the elements will be corroded?" ”
"Stand back." Gu Qinyan said, blocking in front of everyone, then pulled out the iron sword from his back waist, held the second iron sword with condensed fighting qi in his left hand, and said in a low voice: "Extreme sword qi slash ......"
The long sword in Gu Qinyan's right hand danced, and the fighting spirit twitched like a whip and flew out, and then the long sword in his left hand stabbed out five times in a row, and five sharp sword qi slashes followed, and the whip-like sword qi in front of him was connected, turning into a flying phoenix fluttering its wings and flying forward: "Phoenix swim!" ”
The flying phoenix flickered its wings and swept forward, bringing a strong gust of wind. The beetle was blown backwards and exploded in pieces, and the phoenix flew all the way backwards, causing a series of explosions, and the beetle population quickly shrank, and the phoenix continued to move forward, blowing away all the beetles on the mother's side.
The phoenix continued to move forward until it hit the wall before it dissipated, and at this time the mother body was already exposed, and dozens of blood marks suddenly appeared on its body. At this time, the mother's numb expression suddenly changed, and it screamed sharply, as if using scissors to carve the blackboard, and everyone had to cover their ears, and the upper right corner of the screen showed a state of "can't attack".
"It's time to turn the stage...... Attention! Xia Chiyu shouted, even though he couldn't hear it himself.
The ground suddenly caved in, and all the flesh, corpses, and bones sank down and fell. And Xia Chiyu and the others are now in a state of being unable to attack because of the mother's screams, so they are also sucked down by this flesh and blood whirlpool. There appears to be a bottomless pit below, and as it falls, the field of vision becomes pitch black and impossible to see.
But the moment the vision disappeared, the attack debuff in the upper right corner of the crowd also disappeared. Xia Chiyu immediately applied the Wind Walking Technique to each person, floating in mid-air, and then applied the Holy Light Guardian as illumination.
After the scene was illuminated, everyone couldn't help but be shocked, an incomparably huge insect was entrenched on the bottomless mountain wall, and the two pairs of scarlet compound eyes were staring at them. The insect was extremely huge, seven or eight meters in diameter, and its body spread to the bottomless pit below, and it could not see its full length at all, it was like a giant dragon.
The worm's body resembles that of a centipede, with a truncated body and sharp limbs, but on its back is a pair of sharp and slender legs that support its massive body on the walls of the cave, and a pair of giant pincers of scorpions on either side of its head. Immediately, the name "Beetle Queen" emerged from the top of its head.
From the top of the head of the Beetle Empress, it can be seen that there are still a large number of flesh bones and corpses attached to it, as well as the fat human female body that was used as a mother before, and it is obvious that this part is connected to the ground.
"Oh God...... How are we going to fight this big? Thomas muttered to himself in despair.
"This boss has 28 million HP!? We only have a few thousand damage points for one skill, how can we fight? Emily also muttered to herself at a loss, and Donna was also stupefied in the back, with no intention of continuing to fight.
They floated in the air and descended slowly, while the Beetle Empress kept crawling around them, ready to attack at such a fast speed, and their vision was so narrow that their eyes could not keep up with the movement of the behemoth.
"Are you ready?" Xia Chiyu turned to Su Xing and Gu Qinyan and asked, "I didn't have much blue to solve the mystery before, so I can only assist, and the main task will be handed over to the two of you." ”
"Hmph, leave it to me, you can make soy sauce next to you." Gu Qinyan said, and when he woke up, he also raised his hands and smiled: "It's my special show in such a dark place, can you finally let me be in the limelight again!?" ”
"Yes, yes, you two secondary two teenagers, get ready, there is only one chance." Xia Chiyu said, holding the staff with both hands and dancing in a circle, aiming at the darkness in front of him and shouting: "Tianluo Jiuyao, the lock of the stars!" ”
A starry light flashed in front of them, then spread out in all directions, one star after another, until nine stars joined in an arc around them.
The nine star points erupted thick chains of light connected to each other, forming a regular hexagon, with a regular triangle inlaid in the middle, and strange spells shone out in the circle, emitting dazzling light.
At the same time, the Beetle Empress, who was moving at high speed, suddenly let out a sharp scream, and her body was restrained by the magic circle.
"Up!" Xia Chiyu shouted, and Gu Qinyan had already moved before he could speak, his figure flashed, and the next moment he raised his foot to steady himself on the mountain wall, and pressed his right hand on the handle of the knife on his waist.
The circular knife light flashed on the two thin legs that supported the body of the Beetle Empress, and the Beetle Empress suddenly let out a sharp scream, and the thin legs couldn't help but let go, and the stubby limbs on its body couldn't support such a huge body at all, and it suddenly slid downward, and when she woke up, she also followed, and her hands turned into the arms of the Demon King.
"Demon King's Breath!" Awakening shouted, his hands aimed at the Beetle Empress and struck, and the dark aura condensed into a thick shockwave that slammed into the top of the Beetle Empress's head. The Beetle Empress swayed and slid down as if she had been hammered.
"I see! You're going to knock it back! Thomas suddenly realized.
"But it's going to climb up later, right?" Emily asked, a little worried.
"It can't climb up and care about us, it's good if it can pass the test anyway." Xia Chiyu replied with a flat face, but at this time, a roar came from under his feet, and he saw that the beetle queen was actually stunned to stab the mountain wall with a pair of huge pincers on the way down to slow down the momentum of the fall, and was quickly climbing up to them at this time.
"Damn, it's so fast!" Xia Chiyu said with a little surprise, and then a black shadow passed by them.
Like a shooting star, the skeleton knight let out a sharp roar and pounced on the Beetle Queen.
"I'll scare me......" Su Xing patted his chest and said, "Why did this guy suddenly ......"
Before they could finish speaking, a large group of wailing spirits flew past them like a tsunami, and swooped down on the scarlet queen after the skeleton knight. The Beetle Empress let out a wail, and was pushed down by the black undercurrent, and soon disappeared into the shadows. It took a long time for an explosion to come from far below.
"What's going on? Meaning we don't have to ......," Donna asked curiously, but the undercurrent created by the explosion gushed from below, and before they could make a move, it instantly engulfed them, and they only felt that the sky was spinning for a while......
After some time, their vision returned, and they found themselves lying on the floor of another room.
"What is this place?" Xia Chiyu rubbed his head and said, just now they were still falling in an invincible abyss, but the next moment they came to this room. The room was furnished with old dusty furniture, and outside the window was a forest, and a light was already shining in the sky, which looked like some cabin in the woods for hunters.
"Judging from the map, we have reached the edge of the City of the Dead, and this should be the Forest of Hunting." Gu Qinyan observed the forest outside and replied, "The place where cannibals and all kinds of murderers gather, sixty-eight level maps. ”
At this time, a line of words suddenly floated in the world channel, "Congratulations to Xia Chiyu and Gu Qinyan...... and others who have cleared the City of the Dead scenario campaign, and the world impact after clearing the level: The City of the Dead will no longer be refreshed in this area".
"Hey, look, there's a treasure chest in this house, it should be a reward for clearing the customs, right? it! That's a lot of experience! ”
While Su Xing and the others were fussing about the rewards for clearing the level, Xia Chiyu walked around the house, and then picked up an old book that had been covered in dust on the bed.
"Scarab information acquisition!" After Xia Chiyu wiped the dust off the book, a line of subtitles appeared in front of him.
