Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Death of a Necromancer
"Boss, do you need me to find a chance to kill the spider in front of you?"
Mr. Skillful flew in front of Sun Licheng and asked quietly, the light of his electronic eyes was very cold.
Sun Licheng thought about it, then shook his head, although he still had doubts about this flower-backed spider now, but it was difficult for him to kill the other party for no reason.
"What's wrong with me?
Sun Licheng's hand slipped into the helmet, scratched his head, and asked himself suspiciously.
On Earth, he is not a brave man, and he will never stand up for others, even if he is supporting an old lady, he is afraid of being blackmailed. But when I came to this world, especially after having the power of heroes, my sense of justice exploded! Sun Licheng shook his head, decided to give up this meaningless question, and quickly followed with a long knife.
The flowerback spider resembles a hunting dog, and after walking around for a while, it lowers its head to sniff and then runs in one direction.
Sun Licheng looked at the labyrinth-like passage, feeling a little strange in his heart, and asked Mr. Qiaoshou: "Do all the military fortresses of your Goblin Empire need to build such a labyrinth?"
"Yes and there are not, depending on the importance of this military facility. However, judging from all indications, this military base is still quite important, otherwise the labyrinth defense passage would not have been built. Mr. Skillful replied after thinking for a moment.
Fortunately, thanks to the leadership of the flower-backed spider, Sun Licheng and they successfully found the right direction, according to Mr. Qiaoshou, in the depths of this labyrinth, there are deadly mechanisms in many places, and once you stray, it is easy to die.
Here, Mr. Skillful also had to be more careful, and every time he crossed an intersection, he used a special method to make an obvious road sign to prevent Sun Licheng and them from getting lost when they went back.
After an hour of stopping, they finally walked out of the labyrinth.
At the exit is a small square, four or five hundred square meters, and the surrounding walls are paved with a smooth building material, so that the whole space forms a regular trapezoidal shape. Although the age is far away, there is no attachment on the stone wall, which makes Sun Licheng very surprised. He cautiously walked over and touched it with his hand, it was quite smooth, and he couldn't help but admire the technology of the Goblin Empire even more.
"Boss, this should be the gate. According to the convention, there should be an ambush here, and everyone must be careful. ”
At this moment, Mr. Skillful flew to Sun Licheng's side to remind.
Sun Licheng nodded, and called back the flower-backed spider.
Along the way, the Flowerback Spider is very honest and proves that it is a partner who can cooperate, and now that the front is dangerous, it cannot be allowed to die in vain.
After walking a short distance along the passage, I found a square, which was larger, with thousands of square meters, and the roof of the cave nearly ten meters high was covered with glowing stones, making the whole square look very bright.
"Mr. Skillful, the Goblin Empire has collapsed for tens of thousands of years. ”
Sun Licheng called Mr. Skillful and asked him.
"Yes, Boss. ", replied Mr. Skillful.
Sun Licheng stomped on the ground with his foot, then pointed to the glowing stones above his head and asked, "Then why are these stones still so smooth, and how can those stones still have energy?"
Mr. Skillful thought for a moment and replied, "As far as I know, good building materials have a special coating on the surface that can stay smooth for 10,000 years. As for those glowing stones, there should be other sources of power besides magic crystals. As for what it is, you need to go inside to know it. ”
At this time, the flower-backed spider passed a message to Sun Licheng, he smelled the breath of the master, and it was not far ahead, but the person seemed to be dead.
Sun Licheng perked up, carefully pulled out the long knife from his back, and walked forward with a flat end.
At the bottom of the stone wall in front of him was a metal gate, and in front of the metal door, there was a corpse that had fallen to him, and it could be seen from the gray-black mage robes on his body that it should be the necromancer.
When he got close to the corpse, Sun Licheng carefully turned the front of the corpse over with a long knife. This guy was supposed to be a human in life, very tall, but the flesh and blood of his body had completely shrunk and become a mummy, which looked very terrifying. In his head and chest, three crossbow arrows were stuck deep in his head, which should be the real reason for the death of the necromancer.
Suddenly, Sun Licheng only felt movement in the upper right corner of his head, and then with a whoosh, an arrow shot over, and he hurriedly waved his long knife to dial it.
There was a metal crisp sound, and the arrow was knocked out, but Sun Licheng also felt a numb hand, "The strength of the bow and arrow is so great!"
"Retreat! There is an ambush!"
Sun Licheng, who successfully escaped, shouted, then turned his head and ran towards the way he came.
As he ran, he could only hear the sound of rumbling metal slamming on the ground from the left and right, and the corner of his eye swept away, revealing that they were two huge battle golems!
These two battle puppets were really big, at least six meters tall, like two small hills pressed over. Behind them, steam was constantly rising, and Sun Licheng guessed that these guys were powered by steam, and it would be too troublesome to be able to spew steam like in "The Elder Scrolls Online".
Before he could run a few steps, there was the sound of an arrow cutting through the air behind his head, Sun Licheng secretly said that it was not good, it was already difficult for him to avoid it while running, and cold sweat immediately flowed from his head.
There was a muffled bang, Sun Licheng turned his head to look, and found that it was Mr. Skillful who rushed over and blocked the arrow with a big shield.
"Thank you, Mr. Skillful. Sun Licheng wiped the sweat on his head while running and thanked Mr. Qiaoshou.
"It's okay, boss, we need to get out. The defenses here are too tight, and it's hard for the two of us to break in. Those two battle golems are very nasty, spewing steam, and very difficult to deal with. The shield raised by Mr. Skillful Hand resisted the arrows and suggested to Sun Licheng, which confirmed Sun Licheng's guess that the two battle puppets could spray steam.
"Damn, that's not a roast pig!", Sun Licheng slandered in his heart.
Just as the two of them ran to the center of the square, the flower-backed spider let out a scream, and a crossbow arrow pierced through one of its right legs, injuring the spider, and its movements slowed down significantly. Immediately after, another arrow fired by the battle golem pierced its other leg, causing the Flowerback Spider to lose its balance and fall to the ground.
Sun Licheng was in a hurry, although he had been with this spider for a short time, he was really reluctant to give up now, but his side was besieged from three sides, was there any other way?
"Mr. Skillful, you go up to protect the back of the flower and try to drag it out!"
Sun Licheng hesitated in his heart, then decided to take a gamble, and issued an order to Mr. Skillful.
After saying to Mr. Skillful, Sun Licheng stopped and turned around, holding a long knife, and looked coldly at the two battle puppets rushing over, he decided to protect his companions and prove his heroic qualifications with his actions!
