Chapter Eighty-Eight: Grief

Catrina finished clasping her palms and trying to chant.

"Wait!" Rex and Kitty shouted at the same time.

Rex took a deep breath, and the sound just now seemed to consume a lot of body, and his tone became choppy, "You misunderstood...... Negative energy damage cannot be healed by magic attacks...... The priest has ...... Negative Energy Removal Spell ...... Knights of the Storm...... It can be cured. Saying this cost him more of his body, and his present image is as weak as a dead tree that has been drained of its vitality.

"In addition," Kitty said, "there is another law in the legend of the Shadow Eater, they will only follow the footsteps of the strong and absorb their energy, and the moment the priest was overtaken just now, I suddenly understood that they must be looking for the target through the source of the spell, so as soon as the priest started casting spells, they immediately sensed and attacked his shadow, and the three of us were not attacked. ”

So she was going to stop the team's spell casting, and Tarrant punched the statue hard, "Then we're in a bad situation, Rex can't move, Catrina can't cast spells, the door's spring device has broken, we're stuck here, I don't know what else awaits us", he looked up at the idol in the darkness, "If this is really a lair of psychic monsters, then the temple is destined to be our grave......"

"I'm okay," Rex struggled to snap out, "take off my armor." ”

Taking off the armor can reduce the weight, helpless but effective solution, Tarrant helped him remove the armor of the whole body, and the priest stood up with the help of his teammates, "Put the shackles there for you...... I can walk on my own without weight", his breathing was uneven, and he looked very tired every time he opened his mouth.

Tarrant put away the shackles and put them into the Spirit Pattern Bag, "What about the armor?"

"Let's talk about getting out alive", Rex shook for a moment, holding on to the statue base beside him so as not to fall.

A tenacious warrior like him, who never wants to be pitied or a burden to the squad, Tarrant turned sadly, "Let's go on." "This is the utmost respect to Rex.

"Which direction?" Katrina looked at the bones around her, "Will there be more ...... elsewhere?"

"It's the same to stay here", Tarrant picked up the torch on the ground and handed it to Kitty, who now had to play the role of a warrior, "Katrina and Rex go in the middle, and I'll go in front." He walked forward, stepping on the pile of bones and making a trivial "gege" sound.

The team regained their way, and Catrina followed Rex and carefully tiptoed on the bones, a skull next to her foot suddenly opened its mouth and bit the tip of her toe, "Ah!!h

The voice came from the dead silence of the temple, startling everyone, and Kitty hugged her and raised her foot to crush the skull, "You don't have to be afraid of them. ”

"Uh...... Alright", Katrina patted her chest to calm herself, "Okay", she understood that she was causing trouble for the team again, especially Tarrant's disdainful eyes made her quickly cover her mouth, "I'll get used to it, I promise to be quiet right away...... Ah!!h

A thick white bone stepped out of the darkness behind Tarrant, several times thicker than the broken bones on the ground, and a joint sank upwards into the darkness, which was just the lower body of this huge skeleton soldier!

"Not good!" Tarrant took a step back, "Bone Golem!"

Bone Golems are a sturdy corpse made up of a lot of bones and dead corpses, and in addition to their size, the biggest difference between them and ordinary skeleton soldiers is that they have excessive resistance, which is a rare monster in dungeons.

With Tarrant's words, an extraordinarily wide iron sword swooped out of the darkness, and from the time it came into sight to the reaction time needed to dodge, Tarrant was no longer able to dodge, and he waved his hand to warn his teammates: "Retreat......"

Before he finished speaking, the huge iron sword had slashed across his right waist armor, the impact force was several times worse than the fire explosion, Tarrant's body flew out like a weightless, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already more than ten meters away from the statue, and the torch fell from the wall of bones just now.

"No!" Catrina cried out in pain, with the force of the impact just now, ordinary people would definitely be cut in half, she folded her hands and chanted loudly: "Flame Gap Gathers ......"

"Don't cast spells", Kitty pushed Katrina away, and the Shadow Eater appeared, and the three shadows stayed on the base of the statue, looking left and right for the energy source that had just flashed and disappeared.

The Bone Golem took a slow step forward, its massive paws stomping against the bone wall, crushing the skeleton soldier's body into bone.

Rex stood directly in front of it, there was no way to avoid it, there was no armor on his body, if he suffered a blow like the one just now, he would definitely die, Tarrant hurriedly turned over and stood up, the stone defender perfectly defended against the attack just now, he was not injured.

The greatsword swung out of the darkness and headed for the top of Rex's head, and Kitty swooped down from behind, pinning Rex to the ground, the greatsword slashing across Kitty's back, and the rapid air currents blew up the bone chips on the ground.

"Katrina, you take Rex!" Kitty rolled to the Golem's feet and let out a long howl, her limbs bent rapidly to grow golden fur, her face twisted forward, and two fangs protruding from her lips.

A golden wolf!

The swift beast opened its mouth to bite the golem's right foot bone and dragged it back, trying to delay the golem's next fatal attack, and Katrina relented and took the opportunity to run towards Rex.

The Bone Golem did not have a god-level system, and it almost ignored the attack of its right foot, dragging the giant wolf forward stiffly, and slashed straight at the priest who fell to the ground with the iron sword in his hand.

Catrina grabbed Rex's arm, "Quick!"

Rex was stuck in the pile of bones and struggled, unable to roll without a point of focus, the mage's thin body could not pull him up, and the giant sword continued to fall, and the two could no longer dodge.

With a "bell", the two giant swords collided, and Tarrant flashed in front of Katrina, bearing all the force above his head, the impact caused his legs to bend and crush the wreckage on the soles of his feet, Tarrant turned around and shouted, "Get out of here!"

Catrina dragged Rex and crawled out of the pile of bones, wolf retreating.

The giant wolf on the right side of the bone golem pressed its limbs against the ground, clenched the foot bones tightly, and bit off the bones in its mouth with a "click".

The golem put away the greatsword and raised its right foot to kick Tarrant's lower abdomen, it was too large to dodge, Tarrant twisted and rolled to the left, and the greatsword continued to swing on its left calf bone.

Its skeleton is composed of a number of small bones, although it appears to be thick but can not withstand the continuous fierce slashing of sharp weapons, under the attack of Tarrant, there is no time to fight back, the left leg can no longer bear the huge weight of the upper limb skeleton suddenly cracked, the entire lower limb skeleton was split into two halves and scattered to the ground, and the upper limb fell backwards.

The giant wolf retreated, and after the Bone Golem fell to the ground with a "boom", it pounced again, biting the metacarpal bone of the golem's right wrist and gnawing.

Tarrant had already taken control of the fight, and with the help of the druid, he leaped high and slashed his greatsword into the Golem's ribs, shattering the defensive skeleton on the Golem's chest.

The Bone Golem stubbornly raised its right palm, brought the clenching giant wolf up, and swung it outward, its strength will not weaken with the damage received, it still has a huge impact force, and with a flick of the hand, the giant wolf was thrown out, with the entire forearm skeleton in its mouth and the giant sword in its hand.

All that was left was its left hand and its body, and Tarrant rolled down from it, slashing the skeleton of the golem's left hand that was reaching for him. The massive creature had lost all resistance, and Tarrant scurried to the head of the Bone Golem, a skull about the size of a halfling, with two small round shield-sized eye holes, crooked teeth, and "goodbye", he formally bid farewell to his opponent, and the greatsword plunged into the skull, cutting it in half, and the remaining skeleton on the ground scattered with it.

Tarrant put away his sword, turned and ran in the direction of the torch, "Katrina!"

"Here!" the mage said behind the statue, holding Rex.

"Are you alright?" Tarrant picked up the torch and looked at the two of them, "Are you hurt?"

"It's okay, we're not hurt, it's dangerous", Katrina wiped the dirt from her face, "What about you?"

"I'm fine", Tarrant looked around, there was no sign of the druid, he shouted into the darkness, "Kitty?"

Not seeing the giant wolf, it hadn't appeared since it was thrown out by the Bone Golem, Tarrant ran in that direction worriedly, "Kitty!"

The druid's figure slowly walked out of the darkness, looking tired, slow, and with multiple abrasions all over his body, "I'm here." ”

"Great," Tarrant stepped forward to meet him.

Kitty suddenly slumped her legs and fell into Tarrant's arms without warning.

"Kitty?" Tarrant dragged her, his left hand running down her waist behind her back, and touched a slender artifact, she was hurt, "Kitty, how are you?"

Kitty lost consciousness and leaned completely on Tarrant, half a thin white bone stuck in her waist behind her! Blood flowed down her curves, dragging a trail of blood on the ground that stretched from Kitty's feet into the darkness.

"No!" Tarrant roared, leaning over to pick her up and running to Rex's side, "She's hurt!"

Rex leaned on the base of the statue to inspect Kitty's injuries, "Likely...... Hurt your internal organs...... If not treated immediately...... She would bleed to death. ”

"Kitty", Tarrant held her guiltily, if it wasn't for his determination to come to the temple, the team wouldn't have paid such a heavy price and couldn't let her go!

A dark shadow flashed through the edge of the torch's rays, silent, and the Shadow Eater still lingered.

"What to do?" asked Katrina anxiously.

"I'll save her", Rex raised his hands to chant, "Pull out the bones......"

If he did this, it would be equivalent to exchanging Rex for Kitty's life, no matter who sacrificed him, Tarrant couldn't accept it, he grabbed Rex's hand, "No, there must be a better way!"

The three of them were silent, and the current situation did not allow for much consideration, Kitty's face became more and more pale, and her fingers were cold.

"I have a way", Katrina suddenly stood up, "If I have to sacrifice someone, it should be me!"
