Act 106: The Dark Hive III
The quiet dark passage resounded with the sound of wriggling, and more than fifty stone worms let out a low chirp and crawled rapidly towards the left side of the passage.
In the Dark Nest, these stone insects are mainly responsible for repairing the passages, sometimes dealing with the debris in the passages, and also serving as patrols. They immediately felt the vibration of the skeleton warrior's extreme speed through the perception of the ground.
Feed back the situation to the higher-level insect bosses, who, as instructed, blocked off the main passages, trying to force the scurrying skeleton warriors into corners.
Soon, dozens of huge stone insects with pitch-black bodies spotted the figure of a skeleton warrior, and these stone worms quickly accelerated and ran, using violent vibrations and chirps as a signal to notify their companions, while launching an attack on the skeleton warriors in front of them.
Suddenly, the black shadows staggered, and the giant pincers of more than three stone worms were blocked by the skeleton warrior's shield, splashing fine sparks.
Although the giant pincers of these stone worms are abnormally sharp, the skeleton warriors summoned by the "Authority of the Dead" are obviously not weak.
However, there are many stone worms, and every time the skeleton warrior swings the weapon in his hand, it is always bounced off by the giant pincers that fly and attack, not only that, but these cunning stone worms also find a flaw, and the giant pincers pierce out of the gap between the shield and the sword, and instantly sweep through the shoulder joints of the skeleton warrior, cutting off his arm neatly.
At this moment, the bright red soul fire in the sockets of the skeleton warrior's eyes jumped.
The sword-wielding arm flying in mid-air froze suddenly, as if controlled by an invisible force, and slashed down with a sharp blade, breaking through the hard armor on the back of the stone worm, piercing into the flesh, splashing dark green blood with a corrosive effect.
Without the protection of the sword, the skeleton warrior was quickly overwhelmed by the surging swarm, and then shredded by the giant pincers of the stone worms.
There are so many stone worms.
However, it has fed back these scenes to Tang Ze's side one by one, confirmed the specific situation of the surrounding passages, and can be regarded as completing the task.
This was similar to the other skeleton warriors, all of whom were attacked by stone worms, and some by scarab beetles.
But in the end, Tang Ze still found his way to the hive.
"There are a lot of bugs blocking the way."
The vision fed back to Tang Ze was dense with stone insects, pitch-black armor, and dark red compound eyes.
Previously, Tang Ze considered approaching the insect hive without exposing himself as much as possible, on the one hand, not giving the insect mother a chance to escape, and on the other hand, to solve the other party as soon as possible.
But the number of these bugs is really exaggerated at the moment, and it seems that it is impossible to get close to the mother worm without making a big noise.
It doesn't matter, since you can't take shortcuts, then use violence to find a way.
Dark green flames leaped in Tang Ze's eyes.
Taking a step forward, the pitch-black and solid passage immediately vibrate, and at this moment, the stone worms and scarabs in the rest of the passage were all stunned, and then screamed.
The stone insects were like a pitch-black tide, instantly swarming towards Tang Ze's location, blocking the front and back of his passage.
In less than a few tens of seconds, the pitch-black passage echoed with a dense crawling sound, countless red dots swayed close to Tang Ze, and the giant pincers opened, reflecting the cold light of Sensen.
Lv17-Lv21, the level of these pitch-black stone worms is not very high.
"Dark green armor."
Glancing up at the top floor of the passage, which was not too high, Tang Ze gave up the idea of using the skill Demon Wand to sweep away these stone insects in front of him.
If he did, the passage would have collapsed, and it wouldn't have been a good outcome for him.
The terrifying and monstrous Demon Pattern Giant Hand easily swept away all the giant pincers, directly overturning the nearest few stone worms.
Then he used the transformation ability of the dark green armor, and countless jet-black blades covered his arms, easily tearing the armor on the surface of the stone worm, and dark green blood splattered all over the ground.
With his terrifying power and destructive power, Tang Ze directly crashed into the pile of stone insects, breaking the giant pincers and smashing several stone insects at the same time.
In just half of the face, a dark green blood path was killed, and more than half of the stone insects were shattered by the collision, or easily cut off by sharp blades.
Bang, two blue boss-level stone worms jumped up, and just as they were about to fight for their lives, a huge pitch-black hammer swept over, rolling it into pieces.
In the face of the terrifying destructive power of the dark green armor, whether it is an ordinary level stone insect or a blue boss level stone worm, they are all equally vulnerable.
Having smashed almost all the stone insects, Tang Ze, who was moving rapidly, soon encountered a swarm of scarabs that had been belatedly coming, and these ordinary scarabs released thunder when they first saw Tang Ze.
White lightning filled almost the entire passageway, but was quickly swallowed up by the surging green magic patterns.
Swept!
The power of the erosion spread unchecked, and the scarabs shivered and melted, then became a surging black gas engulfed by the dark green armor.
However, this level of evil breath is just a plug between the teeth of the dark green armor.
"This passage."
At this point, he still had to go through three turns of passage from the hive.
Using the Spirit of Perception, he managed to discover that there was a hive behind the wall of a passage, so he simply opened the passage himself, saving time and simplicity.
The fine magic patterns climbed the surface of the left fist, like blood vessels flowing blood.
Tang Ze's eyes froze, his left fist blasted out like a cannonball, and the moment the green light fist touched the black matter, the wall began to melt.
Well, like a sharp blade piercing tofu, his left fist made a hole in the wall.
Through this hole, you can see the larvae that are constantly moving around in the nest.
"Is the power too concentrated?"
Tang Ze was a little speechless, this was not the effect he wanted, originally he thought that this wall would shatter with a bang.
"All you need to do is momentum."
After a little thought, Tang Ze thought of a way.
The invisible momentum surged, shattering the wall in front of him, and Tang Ze took a step forward and stepped directly into the hive.
The ground here is much softer, perhaps made of the flesh and blood of living beings.
Click, click, click.
Almost at the moment when Tang Ze entered the hive area, the red blood walls on his left and right sides broke through big holes, and the hideous and terrifying blood mouth worms drilled out of the holes and opened their blood mouths towards Tang Ze.
Tang Ze ignored them and looked at the mother worm in the distance, as tall as a hill.
The power of greedy power flocked to the mother worm, and in an instant, information about it appeared on the panel.
Lv30's Dark Mother is a rare Dark Gold Monster that doesn't seem to be good at combat, but it has the power to summon swarms, which makes it even more powerful than Dark Gold Monsters of the same level.
Professionals may find it helpless to deal with such large monsters, but Tang Ze is the opposite.
It feels like you can start anywhere.
At the same time, the bloody worm next to him bit his dark green armor, and then stretched his body to tear Tang Ze apart.
However, Tang Ze walked directly forward, unaffected in the slightest, as if the two bloody mouth worms did not exist.
Smack.
The body of the blood mouth worm became thinner and tighter, and finally broke in the middle, splashing a large pool of blood.
Half of the body hanging from the dark green armor was turned to ashes by the green fire, and then the bite marks on the armor quickly returned to new shape, as if nothing had happened.
Zizi, zizi.
The chirping continued one after another, and several dark gold-level stone insects crawled out from everywhere, blocking in front of Tang Ze like an obstacle, that is, between him and the insect mother.
Subtle fluctuations emanated from the tentacles of the Darkstone Worms.
"Mother worm, you can't get close. Outsiders, not to approach. โ
This volatility has a strong warning connotation. Of course, if it weren't for the tragic death of those two blood-mouthed worms that made these Darkgold Stone Worms realize Tang Ze's strength, they would probably welcome him as an outsider with sharp giant pincers, rather than a tentative warning.
"If you beg me for mercy now, maybe I'll reconsider."
Tang Ze said calmly.
What he said was the truth, and along the way, he kept thinking about whether he would let these bugs go if they expressed their stance and chose to surrender to him?
After all, this is Aranok, and there are not as many monster minions as Canduras, and he has to do a lot of things himself, so if he subdues a team of worms and a worm mother, it may be easy to do.
Since these bugs don't have the wisdom to judge the situation, there is no need to subdue.
Scale-like magic patterns spread all over Tang Ze's body, and he gradually exuded a coercion that made these Dark Gold Stone Worms feel fearful.
As he revealed his demonic scales, the power of the dark green armor took to the next level.
At this moment, what awaits these bugs is undoubtedly a bloody slaughter.
ยทยทยท
In the early morning, after last night's magnificent banquet, the professionals of Canduras woke up one after another from their exhausting dreams.
"There's a new arrangement today, Senior."
Presenting a sleepy-eyed Seniore with a clean towel and hot water, Amber talked about the day's arrangements.
The sewer demon Rodament has finally been solved, and King Jehein has promised the professionals of Canduras that he will officially announce the joyful news to all of Lu Gayne today.
At the same time, he will also give the supreme honor of slaying monsters on the spot, and give it to the professionals of Canduras in the presence of countless people.
However, before that, there seemed to be some problems in the professional home, and some people had a bad attitude towards this matter, especially towards the professional in Canduras, which was somewhat hostile.
This is not good for the future, after all, what Jehine wants to see is a stable situation in which all professionals live in harmony.
Therefore, he informed the professionals of Canduras about this, hoping that the professionals of Canduras could communicate with the professionals of the professionals' homeland, reach a consensus, and then accept the honor in the name of justice.
"It's difficult, it's almost impossible."
Seniore put down his towel, he recalled the contemptuous gazes of the more than eighty professionals, and sighed: "You should understand, Merova, if the professionals of those professional homes, if the professionals of those professional homes are really easy to talk about, they will choose to cooperate with us as early as the beginning of the crusade, and they will not necessarily end up like that..."
Speaking of this, Senior's face gradually turned cold, "I have seen many similar professionals, who have either been trapped and died, or lost in power and finally self-destructed. โ
โ...โ
Unexpectedly, Senior's expression would be revealed, Amber was stunned for a moment, and stopped talking.
Seniors clearly have a big secret in them.
At least the identities of the two professionals are enough to surprise all the professionals.
The class system has its own characteristics, and it is a fantasy to have two classes at the same time, one is a rock-solid paladin and the other is a swift and agile assassin.
It was clear that Seniore must have gone through something to gain his current power.
Amber understood the sadness of this, so she groaned for a while, deliberately avoiding the topic, "I understand your feelings, Senior. โ
"But you can't be sure that the professionals of all the professional homes are unwilling to acknowledge us."
Amber held out her index finger, "The vast majority of professionals, like King Jehin, want the professionals to be united. After all, compared to the existential crisis of mankind and the ravages of demons, the struggle between human beings is insignificant. โ
"I hope so."
Seniore shook his head helplessly, and then said, "So when will you leave, will you and I go to the home of professionals as representatives?" โ
โ...โ
Amber smiled, "Senior, do you remember how many Professionals you brought to join the Professionals?" โ
"Of course."
Seniore nodded, then frowned and emphasized, "I told Mr. Kane, it's just a name, and it's just to get acquainted with the Professionals' Home, in fact, the Professionals' Home won't agree to us Canduran Professionals joining, at least that's what I think." โ
"Then you'd be wrong."
Amber smiled even more, anticipating Senior's reaction, and then, under Senior's surprised gaze, she took a letter from the pile of envelopes next to her and shook it.
"This is a letter from the Barbarian Leader of the Profession's Homestead himself, who was so pleased to learn that you joined the Professional's Home, and came to me at the banquet at the latest."
"You'll have to admit, Senior, Professionals Home is actually willing to work with us, and I'm sure the sewer incident was just a sad accident."
Under Senior's half-believing gaze, Amber handed the letter over.
"If what you said is true, then why didn't he just come to me at the banquet that day?"
Seniore asked as he opened the letter.
"In fact, he sent for you."
Amber smiled helplessly, "But you didn't have a good face with the professionals in the Pro's Home that night. โ
"It's those professionals who are in their homes, and the professionals don't have a good face."
Seniore corrected, "You forgot that when we first arrived, those guys tried to embarrass us. โ
"That's right, that's what the barbarian leader wanted to solve, and that's why he came to us to talk to him."
Amber nodded, Senior's words were true, some of the professionals in the Professional's Home did have ill will towards the Canduran Professional.
Seniore read the letter and exhaled a cloudy breath.
The above content is not different from what Amber said, and it is basically to invite professionals from Canduras to the professionals' homes to resolve conflicts.
The barbarian leader was sincere, at least as the envelope seemed, and Seniore trusted Amber's eyes on others.
"Well, you're right."
Seniore nodded slowly, "This matter deserves serious consideration. โ
