Chapter 281: This Kid Is a Monster
Inside the main entrance of Castlevania is a huge courtyard that covers an extremely large area.
As soon as the reconnaissance team entered it, they saw corpses all over the ground.
To be precise, the corpses of zombies and bats stretched along the flat bluestone floor towards the castle's inner door.
"Someone has been here...... Will it be Van Helsing? ”
Seeing these corpses, "Iron Hammer" immediately thought of the protagonist of the original story.
"No, it shouldn't be Van Helsing." After examining the corpses, the "Quickgun Revolver" got up and shook his head, "Van Helsing's signature weapon is a repeating automatic crossbow with an extremely unscientific load, but these zombies have clearly died from sword wounds, and some of them have traces of blunt blows to their heads...... In other words, this person should be a sword and shield warrior, and his swordsmanship is extremely high, and all monsters are killed with one sword. ”
"Is there such a powerful NPC in this illusion?" "Hammer" muttered, his mind full of doubts.
"That's not right."
In Luo Jie's ultrasound vision, the corpses in the courtyard were not only here, but two.
Under the bewildered gaze of everyone, he quickly bypassed the scattered zombies in the courtyard and dragged back a completely different zombie corpse from another path a hundred meters away.
"This corpse died from a fist wound, the same blow to the head, and there are burn marks on the wound, which seems to be the power of the Holy Light line." The dervish "Daxi" is very knowledgeable about boxing, and he can see the details of this other mysterious person at a glance.
"At least not the enemy." The "Quick Gun Revolver" played with the two steam short guns in his hand with a cynical expression, "Maybe it's an NPC helper arranged by Illusion for us people, right?" ”
However, the mystery soon fell out of the way.
Shortly after entering the inner gate of the castle, the members of the reconnaissance team saw a handsome silver-haired young man wearing a black cloak in a long corridor flanked by a large number of oil paintings.
"Stop! Don't come here! ”
Seeing the group of investigators appear at the door of the corridor, the silver-haired young man who was so handsome that he didn't seem to be human shouted a warning to them.
However, it was still a step too late.
As the last person stepped in, the stone doors on both sides of the 100-meter corridor slammed shut, and countless gray-white translucent ghosts swarmed out from the oil paintings on the walls, emitting bursts of piercing screams, and pounced on everyone in the corridor with hideous faces.
“FK! It's an astral monster! "Quickgun Revolver" exclaimed.
If you rank the monsters that players are least willing to face, the spirit monsters will definitely be at the top of the list without question.
Regardless of other things, complete immunity to physical attacks alone is enough to nullify more than 90% of the player's equipment and skills.
While shouting, "Quick Gun Revolver" retreated to the back of the team without hesitation, and he was joined by the same team player.
It's not that they can't kill these ghosts, it's that the price of the demon-breaking bullets is too expensive to use on these miscellaneous ghosts.
It wasn't just "Quick Gun Revolver" who was bitter about these ghosts, "Blue and White Mascare" and Andre also retreated to the back of the team as soon as possible.
"Linghua, your firearm can't hurt the spirit, hide behind and protect yourself!"
As he spoke, Luo Jie summoned the [Wind Explainer] and the [Flying Snow: Darkness Chaser], and the twin knives shot out a cold sword, slashing the more than ten ghosts that flew into the air into ash in an instant.
Hammer and her teammates also spewed fire out with their hands, and any ghost that touched the flames melted away like a snowman in the sun.
The ascetic "Daxi" constantly shot out golden palm prints, and these condensed palm prints gradually set up a solid line of defense for himself while attacking the ghost.
However, at this moment, the silver-haired young man at the other end of the corridor was suddenly accidentally scratched on the arm by a ghost, although there was no external injury, but the shield in his left hand immediately fell to the ground uncontrollably, and he could only rely on a long sword in his right hand to resist the increasingly fierce attacks of these ghosts.
"Oh no, that NPC can't hold on...... Can anyone go and help? There was a hint of gasp in the voice of the hammer, and it was clear that this constant flamethrower magic was also quite a load on her.
"Just kidding, we're all like this, who cares about an NPC?" "Quickgun Revolver" frowned.
"I'll go."
Luo Jie knows very well that the reason why "Iron Hammer" said this is not out of enthusiasm or sympathy, most of the powerful NPCs like the one in front of him have hidden missions with rich rewards, and the worst can be a powerful help for the strategy map and boss.
If you die here like this, it is likely that there will be some unpredictable changes in the future mission.
"You?" The rest of the reconnaissance team couldn't help but be stunned, and "Iron Hammer" kindly reminded: "Dire, you have to think clearly, in case you can't rush over and get stuck in the middle of the road, I'm afraid we won't be able to save you." ”
Luo Jie nodded noncommittally, and two raging golden flames suddenly burst out from the black and white double knife in his hand.
Although there was no heat wave, the surrounding ghosts began to flee as if they had seen some kind of natural predator.
"Is it [Holy Purification]?"
As a Demon Summoner, Hammer is the most sensitive to the magic of holy light, and immediately judged the origin of the skill from the golden flame that made her feel uncomfortable, and at the same time, she became more and more confused.
"But isn't that a skill that only priests and paladins can learn? Could it be that this Dire is also a paladin? ”
"Daxi" stroked his gray beard, and his sunken eye sockets revealed a touch of wisdom, and said lightly: "This kid obviously hides too many hole cards...... Maybe we're glad it's a cooperative mission, and we don't need to be enemies with him. ”
At this moment, Luo Jie had already rushed out of the defensive circle that "Daxi" had built up with his palm prints, and between the staggered swords, seven shuttle-shaped blades suddenly erupted around his body.
Boom ——!
Luo Jie's figure seemed to turn into a golden fire meteor at that moment, and together with the seven swords that shot out, it ran through the entire corridor, and the huge roar generated by breaking through the sound barrier in an instant shook the entire space violently.
- [Starburst: Roaring Eight Notes]!
When the dazzling golden flash faded in everyone's vision, only an empty corridor appeared in front of them.
Not only the hundreds of ghosts of all colors before, but even the oil paintings on the walls on both sides were completely torn apart and wiped out by the terrifying speed of sound just now.
It took a long time for the "Quick Gun Revolver" to recover from the shock, shrug his shoulders with a wry smile, and said to "Daxi", "Okay, Master, I agree with what you just said...... This kid is a monster. ”
