Chapter 22: Impasse
The blow worked, and the spear in Liu Minghao's hand swept out again, and at the same time, he dodged back and retreated, striding towards the empty corridor on the right. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Seeing that he was only a few meters away from the corridor, another exceptionally clear exclamation came, Liu Minghao landed on his feet, his body paused slightly, and looked back.
With the sound of hurried footsteps, in the passage on the other side, a slightly thin man rushed out with a scream, and several ghost guards followed him like tails, chasing after him.
At the same time, several ghost guards swarmed into the other corridors and rushed into the side hall.
The man ran around a golden statue, and when he saw Liu Minghao, who was obviously not a ghost, he screamed suddenly, his face showed a look of surprise, and as soon as he turned his feet, he rushed in his direction.
"Damn."
Liu Minghao's eyebrows trembled, he cursed in his heart, his legs bent slightly, he exerted his strength violently, raised full speed, rushed forward like lightning, rushed into the depths of the corridor with a few ups and downs, and disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye.
……
I don't know how far I ran forward, until the riot behind him was completely put aside, and I couldn't hear the slightest sound anymore, Liu Minghao didn't stop.
Because the strength value has been greatly improved, running so hard did not make Liu Minghao consume too much physical strength, while looking around, he took a deep breath and adjusted his slightly rapid heartbeat, and after a while, he regained his calm.
It also looks like a burial chamber, slightly smaller than the side hall above, with a huge sarcophagus in the center, flanked by two statues of Anubis in Egyptian legends with a dog's head and a ritual weapon.
The light in the tomb was dim, but it did not affect the vision, Liu Minghao's eyes fell on the wall, and when he saw the rows of guards and hideous-looking hounds, an inexplicable trembling feeling immediately rose, and he couldn't help but move in his heart, and immediately took a step back, and was about to turn around and withdraw from the tomb.
Liu Minghao's reaction was not unfast, but it was still a step slower, and at the same time as he jumped up, an invisible fluctuation suddenly appeared in the air, and a faint blue light immediately enveloped the entire tomb.
A heavy roar sounded, and in the dust, in the originally empty tomb, a heavy stone gate descended, completely sealing the retreat road.
Liu Minghao rushed forward, but he couldn't escape at the last moment, his body couldn't retract, and he hit the hard stone door hard.
In the process of rushing out, seeing that the way was blocked, he stretched out his right hand quickly, slapped it to the ground hard, twisted his body with the help of volley, curled up his legs to protect the vital point, and used his back to withstand the impact of the stone gate.
Although it is not possible to completely avoid the impact, it minimizes the force of recoil on the body.
At the moment when his body hit the stone gate and was rebounded, Liu Minghao turned over, jumped up immediately after rolling on the ground, and took a step back to stabilize his body.
At this time, in the tomb, there was already a gloomy atmosphere, and under the dark blue light, countless ghost warriors were constantly struggling and writhing, and they were about to break through the wall.
Above the sarcophagus, streams of black mist gushed out, spreading out in the tomb, and in the faint blue light mist, it scurried around like a spiritual snake.
Liu Minghao immediately noticed that several black mist spread along the four walls of the tomb, which seemed to hinder the change of the ghost guards, so that they had to break away from the stone wall for a significant longer time, and they had to constantly fight against the black mist, and they could not pose a threat to him for a while.
The real crisis at the moment comes from the kobold statues standing on either side of the sarcophagus.
Unlike the disturbance of the ghost guards, the black mist seemed to be able to speed up the kobold's recovery, and most of them were attracted to it, surrounded by clusters, almost completely obscuring the kobolds.
On the surface of the mist, several whirlpools of different sizes even appeared, spinning rapidly, pouring into the kobold's body.
In a few breaths, the thick black mist was all submerged in the sculpture, and the two kobolds roared angrily and waved the magic weapons in their hands, rushing towards Liu Minghao.
Liu Minghao's right arm was raised, and the sharp dagger left an arc in the air, slashing fiercely across the arm of a kobold.
The two touched, making a muffled sound, and the blade sank into the flesh of the kobold, but it seemed to be slashed in a stone mountain, leaving only a deep trace, which did not cause any obstacle to the kobold, but the movement slowed down slightly, and the thick arm was still holding the long stick in his hand, and smashed it down on Liu Minghao's head.
At the same time, another kobold's attack also came to him, and the blade with a faint blue cold light whistled from the side, slashing straight at his waist and abdomen.
Liu Minghao couldn't avoid it, he protected the door with both hands, stubbornly blocked the attack that came from the splitting face, and jumped out to the other side with all his strength, although he used all his strength, he was still swept by the blade, his body was crooked, and he staggered to the ground, and a long wound suddenly appeared under his ribs, and blood flowed out.
The two kobolds continued to wave their weapons and surrounded Liu Minghao, but their movements were not fast, and they were still wearing heavy armor, which left him a little respite.
Liu Minghao also didn't care about the wounds on his body, and suddenly rolled out on the spot, then jumped up, raised his knife again, and stabbed the kobold walking in front of him fiercely.
The kobold waved his arm to block, the blade slashing, only to slash through the sturdy metal armguard, the blade slicing through the bare dark brown skin with a terrifying grinding sound, and in the end, only a pale white trail remained.
This time it was a temptation, Liu Minghao saw that the dagger's attack effect was minimal, and he no longer fell in love with the war, so he immediately withdrew his body.
He was much faster than the two kobolds, dodging each other's fierce attacks in the tomb, but he was quite at ease.
When the two sides were tugging and seeming, the tomb suddenly shook violently, and then there was a roar, and a huge hole was cracked above the tomb, and a black shadow fell down with a scream, slamming heavily on the sarcophagus.
Liu Minghao dodged and withdrew a few steps, looked sideways, and saw that the man who fell on the sarcophagus was the man he had seen before, and a faint layer of aqua blue light flashed around him, and in the faint blue light mist that filled the room, it was unexpectedly very eye-catching.
In the cracked hole, countless ghost guards kept falling down, but they all slid to the ground by grazing the sarcophagus, all waving attacks around the sarcophagus, but none of the ghost guards' weapons could get close to the man, and the attacks that rained down were shaken away one by one by the aqua blue light surrounding him.
At this moment, the two kobolds had already surrounded Liu Minghao, although Liu Minghao was observing the man, but he didn't dare to take it lightly, and immediately stepped on the ground with both feet, slammed down, and rushed through the gap between the two like lightning, and at the same time, a white light flashed, and the dagger in his hand slashed in front of him, and the armor on the kobold man suddenly turned into pieces and fell to the ground.
The two kobolds collided and staggered and pounced on the ghostly guards who kept appearing, and suddenly roared, bursting with blue light from their bodies.
As the blue light flew, several ghost guards were grabbed by the kobold and devoured in large gulps.
Devouring five or six ghost guards in a row, the kobold seemed to have gained new strength, his movement speed had increased significantly, even his attacks were much more accurate, and his strength had suddenly increased several times, chasing Liu Minghao and attacking again and again.
For a while, Liu Minghao couldn't get close, and the previous sneak attack couldn't be used at all, so he could only keep dodging and wandering, relying on his own speed, barely holding back the two kobolds.
At the same time, more and more ghost guards poured into the tomb, Liu Minghao not only had to dodge the kobold who attacked more and more quickly, but also had to deal with the ubiquitous ghost guards, the ghost guards trapped by the black mist on the four walls of the tomb also caused countless obstacles to his dodge, and after a few minutes, Liu Minghao was a little overwhelmed, and there were several more scars on his body, and blood was dripping.
Although the ghost guards are not strong in attack, they are tireless and very difficult, and the kobold is constantly devouring the ghost guards beside him, and his strength continues to increase, and if he drags it on, he will only be attacked endlessly, dragging him to death in the tomb.
Liu Minghao dodged another wave of attacks, his eyes looked at the hole broken above his head, at this time, the ghost guards around the outside gradually decreased, with his speed, if he jumped onto the sarcophagus and escaped from it, although he could not completely avoid the attack, he could also get out safely.
Just then, a slightly hoarse voice interrupted his train of thought.
"Impossible." The man standing stupidly on the sarcophagus had been observing Liu Minghao's expression, and seemed to have guessed his thoughts, raised his hand and pointed to the ghost guards around the sarcophagus, and said helplessly, "In this tomb, there are at least a thousand such guys, even these two big guys, there are dozens of them, and even if you can get away with it, you will definitely not be able to find the exit." ”
As he spoke, the two kobolds approached again, Liu Minghao had already consumed most of his physical strength at this time, and narrowly avoided another attack, and simply jumped up and jumped onto the sarcophagus.
After observing for a few minutes, he found that the kobold, who seemed to be very afraid of the aqua blue halo around the man's body, rarely took the initiative to approach the sarcophagus to attack him, and even if he approached occasionally, he would quickly retreat, and he also avoided several crises.
Sure enough, the kobold just roared, brandishing his weapon at the two people on the sarcophagus, constantly devouring the ghost knights around him, but never within three steps of the sarcophagus.
Liu Minghao threw the snatched spear to the man, wielding a long knife in his hand, fending off the ghost guards surrounding the sarcophagus and the kobolds' increasingly powerful attacks.
The man raised his hand to catch the spear, and with a hint of joy on his face, he immediately returned to the knife and gun in front of him.
Although he relied on that layer of aqua blue defense before, he was not afraid of attacking, but he had no weapon in his hand, so he could only dodge left and right on the sarcophagus, and he could not fight back at all.
With the spear in his hand, he suddenly lifted his spirits, shouted and danced like flying, and swept a large number of ghost guards crowded around the sarcophagus, and let out a big sigh of sullen breath in his chest.
