Chapter 20: Chestnuts in the Fire

At this moment, Tang Ruiyi was very excited in his heart, he looked at the half-summer glimmer that was waving in the wind, and he already understood it in his heart.

There is no doubt that it was this "Banxia Shimmer" that scared the swarm just now, and dancing on the tip of the knife was not so fun.

But it's strange to say, why didn't he find this Banxia glimmer on the same road he also took when he came?

Tang Ruiyi stood cautiously and stretched out his right hand towards Banxia Shimmer.

However, before his hand could touch the leaf, he froze.

There was a slight movement in my ears.

He turned his head to see that two giant lizards, one red and one blue, appeared on the reckless cliff at some point, and they were rapidly climbing up the bottom of the canyon!

Sure enough, just like in the TV series, there must be a guardian to take care of the genius treasure.

After some investigation, Tang Ruiyi was shocked, the two lizards were actually boss-level monsters, but he thought about it carefully, since even the treasures were silver-level, it was understandable for the guardians to reach the boss-level level.

Now that he had received the items in his last wish, he didn't want to make any more extraneous branches, so he waved his hand and took a few steps back despite his greed, indicating that he had no intention of being contaminated.

But the next plot development caught him by surprise!

As if they hadn't seen it, the two lizards sped up, their eyes full of madness, and they all wanted to swallow him.

Damn! Why is my luck so bad today! I met two crazy people with soft feet!

What should I do? With his speed, he will definitely not be able to run away! Time passed quietly, and Tang Ruiyi racked his brains but still couldn't come up with a way.

Seeing that it was getting closer and closer, the only thing around me now was the Banxia glimmer.

He held the Banxia glimmer in his hand, this small grass that flashed with a glimmer of light was terrible, he was miserable!

Tang Ruiyi was almost desperate, if it weren't for it, he might have fulfilled his last wish and joined everyone, but now let alone lifting the curse, he would be eaten if he didn't do it!

By the way, don't you still have an immortal flower in your hand now? Doesn't it mean that eating this thing can calm your nerves and nourish your stomach? Hey, maybe you can live longer after eating it?

Since you have to kill them all, then you are welcome, Tang Ruiyi immediately put Banxia Shimmer into his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it. This grass does not poke at all and is slightly sweet, just like mulberries, and after eating, he glanced at the two big lizards defiantly, and the latter trembled all over, and the fire was about to burst out under his feet.

[Hint: You have taken the silver-level drug Banxia Shimmer to obtain a body enhancement effect, which permanently increases your health by 25%, weak poison resistance→ medium poison resistance.] Obtain the temporary special skill 'Exorcism of Scorpions and Tigers'] said the hint in Tang Ruiyi's mind.

Tang Ruiyi was stunned, this was the first time he had taken such a high-level medicinal material, but he didn't expect to get a special skill (special passive does not increase the skill slot).

He thought to himself, since the situation is so bad, he might as well fight for it.

As soon as Tang Ruiyi had this idea, he immediately chose to use "driving scorpions and avoiding tigers", which is also amazing, he just finished using his skills, and the blue lizard immediately shook its body wildly, and after fluttering a few times, it actually fainted and didn't move!

"Huh?" he called out, isn't it? This skill is so strong, he just wanted to open the skill bar to take a look, but found that the icon representing "scorpion and tiger avoidance" flashed a few times, and it disappeared, it turned out that the meaning of temporary skills is a one-time product, why don't you explain it?

But judging from the current situation, the effect of this skill should be to restrain beasts or something, and the red lizard is also a little shaky if you don't see it.

However, it seems that the red lizard is more resistant and can hold on!

The thoughts in my mind flashed,

The red lizard finally climbed the cliff, and it was only then that Tang Ruiyi began to look closely, its entire body was three or four meters long, its skin was full of red waves and pimples, and the most striking head was a bright blood-colored ruby and slender sharp fangs.

Tang Ruiyi took out the sleeping medicine powder invented by Savaka and sprinkled it in the air, and suddenly the red lizard's body became slower, and he kept circling around the craggy stone pillars around him, taking advantage of the red lizard's large size to keep flying kites.

In order to save the already small amount of physical strength, he mainly focuses on sword qi attacks, and the "crypt weaver" originally has a special effect of armor breaking, coupled with the sharp attribute of sword qi, once he hits the red lizard, he can also cut the skin and hurt the tender meat.

There's no way, the protracted battle is more about whose endurance is better, the damage of each sword qi is about 20 points, and once the sawtooth effect is triggered, there can be 40 points (the trigger chance is very low, only one dozen times).

During the long battle, he also discovered a very interesting thing, the gem of the red lizard's forehead mountain seemed to be set later, and he could feel the terrifying energy contained in it from a long distance, which means that the two lizards were man-made, not naturally formed, but this discovery did not help the battle at all.

The battle was completely a war of attrition, as he couldn't get close to him, and he had no idea how much health the red lizard really had.

However, judging from the health of ordinary elite monsters, boss-level monsters are not so terrifying, at most between 500 and 200.

It was a long time, and every time the Sleeping Powder lasted up, he refilled the pack, and if the red lizard tried to hit the pillar, he threw out a bottle of Frozen Potion to slow it down.

Half an hour had passed, and he was already a little numb, his right arm had been constantly repeating the mechanical waving motion, causing unbearable soreness, and the long-term attention hit made him even begin to blur his consciousness, and in the end, he was almost completely supported by the thoughts in his heart!

Eventually, the red lizard's cry began to fade, and with a long mournful roar, it fell to the ground with a bang, losing all breath of life and the jewel on its head in a gloomy state.

Because of the previous incident of the resentful god, he had some cups and snakes.

So Tang Ruiyi tentatively threw a few stones, and the stones landed on the lizard's body and bounced off.

At this time, the prompt of the system is belated:

[You have killed the Dark Soul Salamander and obtained 200 experience points, 175 diamonds, black iron level items: Dark Soul Diamond, dark blue item: Poison Hidden Arrow]

[You have gained 1000 experience points, upgraded to level 1, and gained four skill points.] 】

It was an indescribably melodious piece of music, a warm stream of heat flowing through his tired heart, and the scorching blood flowed through his internal organs, then through his brain, and finally into his heart.

Tang Ruiyi, who had long been exhausted, collapsed on the hard granite, and finally won! Silently tasting the great sense of accomplishment that he had never felt before, his heart was full of mixed feelings, whether it was on the earth or in the other world, he did not try his best to grind an enemy to death as an absolute weakling person like now, especially the drug-like pleasure made him want to stop, he was now lazy, he didn't even want to move a finger, and all that came to his mind were those extravagant pictures of spending money on the earth.

I don't know how long it has been, he opened his eyes again, his pupils were extremely sharp, and the upgrade made his body improve in all directions!

The consumables are all gone, and the newly obtained "Smearing Poison Sleeve Arrow" is a small long-range attack weapon, which is not high in attack power, but with special attributes of poison and paralysis, and the "Dark Soul Diamond" is the gem on the forehead of the red lizard, the effect is to increase the magic power by 50% after wearing, and reduce the casting speed by 20%, but unfortunately he is not a mage, this thing is better than nothing for him.

Glancing at the hill-like corpse of the red lizard, looking at the motionless blue lizard under the cliff, he didn't rush to kill them all, and he didn't have time to deal with such a huge corpse, so he hurried through the crack, and sealed the exit with a bottle of freezing potion to be safe, so that even if the swarm wanted to come back, it would take a lot of time.

Rushing all the way back to the end of the ancestral hall, he pushed the central sun and moon disk hard, revealing a black hole in the ground, and the unappetizing stench that rushed to his face made his whole body tremble: "It's a corpse stench!", because he didn't suffer any damage because of his little toxin resistance, even though the stench still made him dizzy.

Quickly take out a cloth to cover your mouth and nose, this is a little better.

Continuing along the dark cavern, there was no shortage of air here, on the contrary, he could feel some breezes, strange? Where did the wind come from?

He couldn't get an answer after meditating, but he would find a small wooden doll in the corner of the wall every few tens of meters on the 4th Road, and it seemed that Savaka still thought that he would catch up, so he asked Shenfeng to use his exquisite skills to carve these "marks". Speaking of which, Shenfeng really deserves to be a master of carving, and the little doll carved out is cute and cute, well, next time I have to ask him to carve one for him, then it's an artifact for bubble girls to go to the earth!

The crypt was so dim that it seemed as if even the soul would shrink in the shadows, but with his enhanced vision, there was nowhere for all the demons to hide!

After walking about thirty steps, there were many scattered footsteps on the ground in front of him, Tang Ruiyi looked carefully and found that these footprints were very strange, because they were the shape of feet.

If it were Savaka and the others, they would never have taken off their shoes and walked.

In other words, there is a high probability that these footprints are not your own.

If that's the case, these footprints mean that there are other human beings here!

Barefoot people, surviving in the dark...... Tang Ruiyi thought of the spider-man he had met before.

These spider-men are not the supermen in Marvel movies who are dressed in fancy clothes and can spit silk in their hands, but the kind of humanoid shells with spider heads and swarthy bodies, and the most terrifying thing is that they have six arms, and they have no mercy and kindness that intelligent beings should have.

And Spider-Man is barefoot, so there will be such footprints!

It is likely that these spider-men suddenly appeared, and engaged in a fierce battle with everyone, and the cave was very dark, and if the spider-men really lived in this environment for many years, then they would definitely evolve a glimmer vision, and the people who were familiar with the environment were caught off guard, and although it is difficult to explain the fact that they would be easily knocked down by relying on Savaka's magical spells, but this is in the big boss's lair, and anything can happen.

Those spider-men are very strong compared to their counterparts in the outside world, and even heavily armed soldiers can't resist them.

Tang Ruiyi squatted on the ground and thought about it carefully, first stuffed the "Crypt Weaver" into his waist, and took out the "Poison Smearing Sleeve Arrow" he had just gotten from his backpack, and by the way, he used a poison sac, which was really poison on poison!

Although melee weapons are more powerful in this case, it is never wise to rush into close quarters against unknown enemies, so the Hidden Arrows that can be fired in bursts are more useful in this situation.

Tang Ruiyi rummaged through his backpack again, and actually found a man-eating flower seed that was about to become moldy in the corner, so he stuffed it in his pocket.

Then he walked forward vigilantly along the two lines of footprints, originally he was still a little hungry and tired, but after the upgrade, all negative states seemed to be eliminated, and he returned to a state of high spirits.

The whistling wind blew across the rock wall, making a ghostly howl, and the floor under his feet was actually the product of stalactite precipitation, and in some places there were not pores, these pores were like small round light bulbs, and when the wind blew through, there would be a hollow reaction, so there was an illusion of a ghost howling.

Opaque quartz crystals mixed with pure glass beads hang like crystals from the dome, which is said to be a sign that the spirits guarding the passage have lit up their palaces to welcome guests from the ground.

Tang Ruiyi was walking and enjoying the rare scenery, when he suddenly kicked something hard under his feet and almost fell. He hurriedly leaned down and found that it was actually a human skull, only the upper part, and no lower jaw. Tang Ruiyi picked up the skull and took a closer look, only to see that there were burn marks in several places on it, and what was even more terrifying was that the skull was covered with tooth marks!

Tang Ruiyi's heart was cold. A terrifying thought came to his mind———— these spider-men actually ate each other!

If you don't even let go of your kind, how can you show mercy to outsiders?

He didn't care about enjoying the beautiful scenery, so he immediately pulled out his legs and ran.

If everyone is really captured by Spider-Man, then their situation is too dangerous, and the worst case is that everyone is killed now!

Tang Ruiyi doesn't want to see anyone die anymore, since he brought everyone in, he has the responsibility to take everyone out completely!

Tang Ruiyi was very anxious, and ran forward at a speed of 100 meters, running for a full twenty minutes without rest.

At this time, he realized that his body was not tired at all, and it seemed that the enhancement brought by the upgrade was even greater than he imagined!

The narrow hole in the ground slopes so much that each section is very different, as if it were the apse of a Gothic church.
