Chapter 031: Fishing in Troubled Waters
Lin Xiao was careless, but put himself in a dilemma. I didn't expect the royal guards to arrive so quickly, and there was a wave of adventurers hiding in the shadows. The current situation is that there is a strong enemy in front and a chasing army in the rear, so we can only go forward with a hard head.
From the "eyes" that had just left at the entrance of the temple, the entrance had been sealed, and any monks who came and went had to go through a strict check.
In addition, there are also warrior monks who can be seen in this temple. These warrior monks wore the golden and red robes of the ancient Oriental Shaolin Temple without any sense of disobedience, holding Emei long sticks, surging from the depths of the temple.
Lin Xiao frowned slightly, quickly took out the mechanical hook from the storage space, and climbed to the roof. Although the temple is dull and dilapidated, it may as well be leaky in its atmosphere, and the beams are seven or eight meters high from the ground, which can be said to be a place that is difficult for ordinary people to detect.
Lin Xiao hid in the blind corner of the roof, holding his breath and concentrating, secretly thinking about countermeasures. Not long after, a commotion was heard from the depths of the temple, shouting and scolding.
"It's on fire! Hurry up and put out the fire! ”
"What kind of thief is this, who dares to do such a disrespectful thing!"
"Blasphemy deserves death!"
“”
The noise came, and Lin Xiao's face changed slightly, and then he understood why there was a time limit for the second mission-it seemed that if he didn't take action immediately, the dusty history would probably be burned by this fire.
Thinking about it, Lin Xiao no longer hesitated, and jumped off the beam lightly. Follow the noisy shouting and shouting from the depths of the temple. Turning around the eaves of a porch, he happened to run into a team of royal guards hurrying by.
"Damn it!"
"Executioner!"
A yellow whirlpool quickly formed on the ground, a low roar sounded, two tall bodies, cold and purple muscles of the undead creature jumped out, the ghost fire in the eyes of the black hole flickered, the fat and deformed fat face showed a hideous smile, untied the chain wrapped around the neck, and swept away.
The chain was rusty, the thickness of a baby's arm. A whistling sound sounded when it was waved, and the sound was terrifying.
It's a pity that there are four royal guards in this team, and under the 40% increase in attributes, they are not creatures that executioners can torture and kill. The chain sweep seemed to be huge, but it was blocked by the giant shield of the royal guard led by the leader, and the three people in the rear attacked with guns without saying a word, and the guns were like dragons, directly piercing the cold and dry skin of the executioner, and cutting through the dark yellow fat layer.
Lin Xiao naturally didn't expect to rely on just two executioners to deal with the four royal guards, what he did was just to delay time.
"Firestorm!"
A muttered incantation sounded, and three seconds later, a dark red blazing flame storm swept through, and the air burned out in a heat of nearly 1,000 degrees, and the swaying grass and delicate willow branches directly carbonized and turned into a pool of black ashes.
Firestorm, B-level magic, one of the main offensive skills of fire mages, and the lethality is amazing. Coupled with the increase in Lin Xiao's natural ability, the health of the four royal guards was incinerated in an instant, turning them into corpses that fell to the ground.
"Ding: You killed a royal guard, you earn 50 points."
"Ding: You killed a royal guard, you earn 50 points."
“”
Obviously, in the evaluation of the master's combat power, Lin Xiao was far superior to these royal guards. So the benefits after the victory are not high. However, Lin Xiao's character exploded, and these four people actually burst out with a shining bronze key.
Pick up the key and summon a bronze treasure chest.
"Refined steel round shields. Equipment requirements: Basic melee LV5, strength 20. Basic attributes: Strength +5, Defense +10. 20% chance to block enemy normal attacks. Durability 42/50. ”
"Ha, good harvest."
This shield attribute is okay, although I can't use it, but I can definitely make a small profit by selling it in a difficult area.
Putting away the shield, Lin Xiao didn't bother to clean up the battlefield, turned around and strode away. At this time, the entire temple had become a mess. Adventurers with unknown intentions of murder and arson, stubborn royal guards, and temple guards are all intertwined with all kinds of forces, and it is like a mess.
Lin Xiao strode forward, quickly passing through the two corridors. Stop in front of a large hall.
On the ground outside the main hall, there was a dried corpse with intact clothes and charred flesh inside, as if something had sucked his water dry in an instant!
The deceased, disheveled, lying on his stomach and apparently searched. One of the doors of the main hall had shattered, turning into a pile of broken wood and falling to the ground, and the other was lonely. A trail of blood spilled down the corner of the wall, stretching into the distance.
The temple has now become a killing field, and I don't know if the goal is achieved or the patience is lost, and the adventurer even carelessly kills here. Along the way, Lin Xiao has seen more than a dozen corpses, and the deaths are strange, and they are so varied.
After walking for a while, Lin Xiao's heart sank slightly. Except for the wave of royal guards just now, they didn't encounter any enemies along the way. If the front is on fire and you can't distinguish people, then what about your back, why can't you even hear the sound of footsteps?
This can only mean one thing, the people who are eyeing this temple treasure are definitely not only their own two groups of people! I thought I didn't know it, but it was actually the poor cicada who was exploring the path, and there were praying mantis and yellow finches staring at me!
Lin Xiao shook his head and smiled bitterly, he has always been cautious in doing things, at this time the situation has become extremely complicated, he is really out of his own ideas, he is not sure whether there is still someone staring behind his yellow sparrow, making wedding clothes for others is definitely not a very pleasant thing, not to mention that in this dangerous and cruel world, an inconspicuous omission is likely to cause the most serious consequence is death!
When the interruption continues, it will be chaotic!
Lin Xiao just stopped and thought for a moment, and then immediately made a decision.
Go!
In any case, this opportunity must not be lost! Not to mention the way out, now there are several ways to get out of Lin Xiao. But the hidden mission is here, the enemy is here, and the secrets of the whole army are here! As the so-called wealth and danger are sought, if you miss such a good opportunity, I am afraid that there will be no such opportunity in the future!
He took a deep breath, cautious, before following the white stone path.
The more he walked, the more frightened he became, there were bloody battles all the way, not to mention those monks and priests, even the royal guards who were quite good were slaughtered by dozens!
High explosives, frost traps, poisonous mechanisms, and methods of corrosing aqua regia emerge in an endless stream, insidious and ruthless, how can the royal guards who have "never seen the world" see through it?
Among them, there were several tragic frontal assault battlefields, where the grass and trees collapsed, the rockeries collapsed, the ground was uneven, and the dead were dismantled in eight pieces, and blood flowed all over the ground. Even the Hundred Refining Katana in his hand was twisted like a twisted flower, twisted together! This shows the arrogance of the attacker!
The flames were blazing in front of him, and the shouts were piercing, and at this time there was a large area of chaos in the temple.
Murder is a mortal enemy at best, but arson is a complete desperate act, and for a time seven or eight fires broke out in the temple, gradually continuing together, and it has become a prairie fire. The people inside poured out and put out the fire to save the house. Lin Xiao hid the fluctuations of his mental power, making his sense of existence extremely low, wandering between the crowds, and quickly approaching the center of chaos.
The two groups of adventurers who entered one after another, a total of five people, had been gradually surrounded by the sea tactics of the temple and the royal guards, and were compressed in two small courtyards, but in this way, the fire was raging, and there were more firefighters, and the defense was inevitably slackened, and they were crazy to break out of the palace and rush directly to the deepest palace!
Lin Xiao smeared two handfuls of black ash on his face at this time, and also carried a bucket to pretend to extinguish the fire and blended in, and he could hear the momentum from a distance, and the sound of fighting continued, and when he looked closer, he found that although the four members of the Yuntao team who had been mixed in before looked embarrassed, they were not dead, and they were forming horns with another group of three reincarnators, and they were cautiously guarding and jointly marching towards the main hall.
Because the fire was getting hotter and hotter, the temple had to add manpower around the fire, so it thinned the strength to stop the adventurers in disguise, so the group of intruders advanced faster, and it could really be said that it was overwhelming!
But when they entered the temple gate after impacting the most rear, the tide of these five people seemed to have encountered a hard reef and were quickly stopped back!
Standing in the doorway turned out to be a huge white skeleton! The skeleton was five meters tall, its bones were as white as jade, and it held a heavy stone knife in its hand.
Lin Xiao hid in the distance and saw clearly, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes: the bones of giants?
The white skeleton was like a giant with all its flesh and scalp rotten, leaving only the white bones of the forest, but the flexibility of the skeleton was extremely amazing, unlike an ordinary stiff and dull giant! The big knife in his hand that can be called a giant level slashed down, and in an instant, it was like a thunderbolt slashing out, and an adventurer who had rushed to the front before avoided it, and shouted that he was about to come back with a somersault, and there was a little blood in the air, but he had already cut off an arm alive!
"This is the bone of an evil creature invaded by the ancients, and it is the monster that my god has killed! There is great terror, great ferocity, and other criminals do not quickly kneel down and surrender! When? ”
The white-bearded old monk led by Ren was domineering, but the adventurer only farted and ignored it. Tied to a plot character? I was kicked in the head by a donkey.
The group of people attacked more and more rapidly, and after a few temptations, they had roughly mastered the attack methods of this huge skeleton. At the moment, there was a shout, and all kinds of means were used together like a tacit understanding.
"Taunt!"
"Ice Arrow!"
"Explosive Iron Fist!"
Ren Na's skeleton was strong and tenacious, but it couldn't stop the siege of seven or eight adventurers, and it stumbled and fell, directly crushing the main hall. After the collapse of the main hall, in the midst of a ruined wall, there was a deep and dark cave built against the mountain!
The adventurers burst into cheers, and the furious giant skeleton rushed into the dark cave.
Lin Xiao stood not far away and watched silently, and saw that the old monk's cheeks kept trembling, but he did not send someone into the cave to chase and kill, but sneered, gritted his teeth and quickly turned away.
