The afterglow of the setting sun is the same as at noon, it is golden, but the shadow of the pyramid is stretched long, and there is no end in sight.

The four people sitting in the shadows had never been more anxious than they were now, and from time to time they looked at the only entrance and exit of the pyramid, their eyes confused.

According to the appointed time, now should be the time for the magic swordsman to fulfill his promise, but the deep black hole is like an ancient beast quietly opening its mouth, swallowing the adventurers who dare to enter.

Of the four, Jan Mu was the most anxious, and every ten minutes or so, he stood up and paced to the entrance, sometimes listening, and there was no sound here except the occasional breeze.

"Zhanmu, don't run around, it's annoying to watch." Haihu's mood is not the same anxious, but as the strongest person in the current team, he always has to take into account the feelings of others, if even he behaves like an ant on a hot pot, then this team must not forget to deal with the sudden monster sneak attack.

"Big brother, the leader hasn't come out yet, will it be ......" Jin Hongming couldn't help but ask.

Haihu wanted to say that "there will be no problems with the leader's ability", but when the words came to his mouth, he said that there was no other reason, and there was still no Renault, and no amount of comfort would help.

Jin Hongming said: "It's already dusk, and the sun will go down in half an hour, are we retreating according to the leader's wishes?" ”

Hearing this, the grumpy Zhan Mu glared angrily and shouted: "Second brother, how can you say that, the life and death of the leader are clear, how can we bear to abandon him, according to me, from the beginning, we should not let the leader enter the pyramid alone." The boss must be in trouble now, and it's not too late for us to make amends. ”

"No," Jin Hongming objected first, "if we can't even solve the trouble, what if we go?" And we just went in to take a look, the road inside is very complicated, how many chances do we have to run into it? ”

Zhan Mu said: "If you are greedy for life and afraid of death, don't come with you, and if you are not afraid of death, go in with me." ”

"Stop!" The sea tiger shouted angrily, and even the stubborn Zhan Mu had to stop.

The sea tiger's face was very ugly, why didn't he want to go into the pyramid to find Renault, reason told him that this would bury the whole team for no reason.

As Jin Hongming said, what Renault can't solve, they can't solve either. He said ruthlessly: "Don't act rashly, we ...... We still obey the commanding of the leader...... Get out of here. ”

"No way!" Jammu was the first to object.

"If you don't wait, maybe ......" Jin Hongming wanted to adopt a compromise approach, but he was not confident.

The sea tiger exhaled a breath of turbidity, as if he had made a lot of determination: "Needless to say, ...... according to the original plan"

Ge Lan, who had been silent, suddenly interrupted Haihu's words: "Wait, listen...... There seems to be some sound. ”

Suddenly, the whole world was silent, and the sound of Zhan Mu's heavy breathing and the sound of the gentle breeze blowing through could be heard.

The four of them pricked up their ears at the black hole at the entrance and exit of the pyramid at the same time, and the footsteps knocked on the rocky ground at once, and the echo continued to spread outward, and Haihu and the others looked nervously at the entrance and exit of the black hole, hoping for the return of the strong.

There was no familiar figure in sight, and a strong smell of decay rushed straight to them, and the four of them had to cover their noses with their hands.

Haihu sensed that the situation was not good: "No, this is the smell of death, everyone be careful!" There's an undead monster coming out. ”

As he spoke, the "Iron Butcher" jumped into his hands at some point. The others also showed their weapons one after another, and for a while, the shining golden light shook at the entrance of the pyramid.

There was a long neighing of horses in the darkness, something was really wrong, where did the war horses come from in the desert region?

All four held their breath, waiting for the unidentified object to appear.

The first to emerge from the darkness were two small faint blue flames, then a long white skull, which was not a human skull, followed by a skeleton of white bones.

Skeleton War Horse!

The four of them gasped, those who were qualified to ride the skeleton war horse were at least powerful undead at the level of skeleton knights. With the four of them combined, they would never be a match for the Skeleton Knight.

I don't know whether it was the fear or the desire for the unknown, the four of them didn't move the pace that should have collapsed, but the beads of sweat rolling down the foreheads of the four revealed their nervousness at this time.

When the rider riding on the skeletal war horse appeared, the faces of the four of them were like congealed milk, and their eyes widened.

It wasn't a skeleton knight, but a living man, the magic swordsman Renaud.

It's just that the magic robe suit, which is usually clean and spotless, is beyond recognition, and the blood stains occupy the main color of the robe, and the remaining blue part is not even a third, in addition to the blood stains, there are three black shades, ruthlessly across the blue and red, they occupy an absolute area that is not large, but it is more eye-catching than the blood stains. Perhaps it was the illusion of the war horse moving around, and the shadows were beating slightly like life, not large but very conspicuous.

I've never seen Renault so embarrassed, the dark blue ripple suit is on the verge of collapse, and it seems that it will be completely destroyed if it is attacked again, and the tattered appearance is not even as good as the white garbage suit.

And the handsome and delicate face was even more scarred, blood flowed from the hideous wound into the neck, and half of the face was covered with blood.

Among the four, the sea tiger reacted the fastest, and he came to the skeleton war horse with an arrow step, and at this moment, Renault's body trembled, and he actually fell off the horse's back.

Fortunately, the sea tiger was prepared, and hugged the fallen demon swordsman. The horse neighed again, and when it felt its master fall from his horse, he struggled to twist his white vertebrae, trying to stop. And the blue flames embedded in the hollows on both sides of the horse's skull burned even more vigorously for a while, facing the sea tiger, constantly spewing rushing air from the small holes in the nostrils, as if they were vigilant about something.

Renault, who was lying in the arms of the sea tiger, struggled to stretch out his palm, which was also stained with blood, and patted it on the back bone of the skeleton warhorse, as if to convey a message that he was okay. Then, the irascible skeleton warhorse stopped breathing and turned its head again, and the blue flame representing the eye returned to its original state, emitting a faint blue light.

Zhan Mu and the others also hugged up, and when they saw the various injuries of different sizes all over their bodies, everyone couldn't help but be afraid: how many monster attacks would it take to cause so many irregular scars.

Three of the most serious wounds were still burning with black flames, that is, the stripes that everyone had mistaken for black shadows, and now they were close at hand, and it was completely distinguishable that they were the flames of the powerful death aura that burned life.

Renault's HP is still slowly declining, and it has long passed the red alert line.

"Get the Potion of Life." Jhanmu shouted.

Ge Lan shook his head: "Where can I find the life potion?" ”

Only then did Zhan Mu remember that all the life potions had been exhausted in the Scorpion Sea War. "Then use the miniature blood recovery potion!"

One by one, the miniature blood recovery vials were crushed in front of Renault, but as soon as he recovered a little HP, he was interrupted by the continuous damage of three black flames. The black flame of the maggot on the tarsal bone slowly burned Renault's weak vitality, and if it continued like this, it would inevitably endanger his life.

It was still the sea tiger who thought of something, and shouted: "Quickly find the abnormal state to release the potion, by the way, it's the curse release potion!" ”

After this reminder, everyone was busy rummaging through their inventory, like the fire of death burning at the wound, only the "Ailment Relief Potion" could save his life, but there were many kinds of anomalous states, such as bleeding, coma, poisoning, and so on, and the black flame on Renault's body was obviously a curse representing darkness.

Finally, Ge Lan turned out the most important potion bottle, which was also the only one left.

Originally, the curse relief potion was not very useful, but fortunately, Ge Lan, who is cautious by nature, specially prepared a bottle in case of emergency, and now it just came in handy.

After crushing the purple potion bottle, the three black flames instantly extinguished, revealing three terrifying centipede-like wounds.

Instead of bright red blood, thick black and purple fluid oozed from the depths of the wound, and the residual breath of death was not comparable to the black flames, but it emitted a disgusting corpse stench.

The four people who are used to killing enemies can't help but frown, it seems that if they want to recover completely, they must go to the cathedral in Ebudra, find the NPC priest, and spend money to disperse.

After a few more miniature potions, Renault finally regained his former glory, he didn't pay attention to the centipede-like wound at all, and an optimistic smile appeared on his face, as if someone else had broken free from the death line.

When Renault's injuries stabilized, several people asked almost in unison, "What happened?" ”

Renault waved his hand and briefly explained what was happening inside the pyramid: it turned out that there were a large number of terrifying monsters lurking in this majestic pyramid, and Renault quickly found that the aura floating in the pyramid was very similar to that in Purgatory mode.

Sure enough, it was full of undead monsters and dark monsters.

The internal structure of the pyramid is quite complex, and it is divided into 99 layers. Each layer represents a level, which means that it is inhabited by monsters from level 1 to level 99.

Renault single-handedly fought from the first floor to the twenty-ninth floor in one go, and then slowed down his progress.

Until the thirty-third floor, I encountered a real boss-level monster.

Originally, Renault's killer magic reincarnation should have been able to kill this powerful skeleton knight, but Renault, who had already exhausted the last trace of fighting energy, could not solve this difficult boss monster in an instant, and was hit by three bone spear blows attached to the "fire of death" skill, although it was only a bruise, but the fire of death was like a shadow entangled the demon swordsman, and the skeleton knight did not show like other brainless monsters, and began to control the skeleton war horse to dodge left and right, delaying time.

If it weren't for Renault's decisive flying Flame Sword to knock down the cunning Skeleton Knight, I am afraid that he would not even have a chance to get out of the pyramid.
