This damage is already so high that it overflows, and it directly kills the lv4 tomb keeper in seconds!

Yan Shaoou, who had received 30 points of experience, suddenly surged out of a golden pillar of light on his body, and successfully upgraded to ordinary level lv2. Hu Siming got 40 experience points, and his experience value rose to 171/200, and he was almost on the verge of upgrading.

Almost at the same time, the statue of the mausoleum guard who had caught up finally slashed the water elemental, and poured out in a long row from the gap between the boulder and the corridor. It's just that without the fastest tomb guarding beast, these ordinary statues alone can't help the two of them.

After gradually shaking them off with speed, the two of them were finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

"If I'm not mistaken, the last blow just now also triggered the talent, right?

Yan Shaoou glanced back and asked casually.

"It's not as powerful as you think. Hu Siming glanced at the attribute bar of the school emblem and explained, "To put it bluntly, it is to attach flames to weapons and reduce the target's armor. At this time, a basic attack will have a certain chance to trigger a critical hit. You've seen the effect roughly, and it's okay, but it consumes fire energy very quickly. Just after a while, the energy collected in the Flame Hall consumed twenty points!"

"Are there any restrictions?" Yan Shaoou was a little surprised and asked, "What happens if the flame energy runs out?"

Hu Siming shrugged his shoulders and said, for example: "Can you still drive the car when it runs out of gas?"

"Understood. Yan Shaoou asked suddenly, but with some worry: "Then, is there any way to recover the flame energy?"

"It's very simple, either find a place like the Hall of Flames, where there is plenty of flame energy and no one to control it, or you can learn the skills related to flames yourself. Each time it is released, the talent can absorb some of the energy that escapes from the skill to replenish itself. ”

"I see. ”

Yan Shaoou nodded, which can be regarded as a further understanding of talent.

"By the way, I haven't checked what that lv4 guy has dropped. ”

Thinking of this, Hu Siming immediately took out the treasure chest containing the dropped props. After tapping it open, the two of them saw a super-small sphinx. It is only forty centimeters tall, but its appearance is exactly the same as its real length. It's just that, because of the much smaller size, the original fierce appearance looks like a cat, cute.

【Sphinx Messenger】

Special effect animal messenger.

It has 75 health, 300 movement speed, and 350 range vision. With six storage slots to help transport items and items, it's immune to most magic.

After being killed, it can be revived for 175 Generic Points.

In the battlefield of the required course, you can temporarily share this effect courier with all team members.

Note: The first UEC will be commemorated.

"It's an animal messenger!"

Hu Siming was a little surprised, he didn't expect this lv4 monster to drop anything else, but to drop such a thing. The stats are exactly the same as those of normal animal messengers, and it costs generic points to be resurrected when killed...... Is there any other use for this thing than pretending to be forced on the battlefield of the compulsory course?

Yan Shaoou also looked a little disappointed.

Remembering that the other party had not gained anything substantial after the start of the unified examination, Hu Siming handed the messenger over and asked, "Do you want it?"

Yan Shaoou hesitated for a moment, waved his hand and said, "In the battlefield of the compulsory course, the messenger can use it to transport equipment and save time. But in the academy, this thing usually feels useless except for a few special circumstances. I took it and occupied the grid, so let's put Brother Hu here first. If it's really useful in the future, I'll borrow it again. ”

"Well said. ”

For a while, Hu Siming didn't think of the usefulness of the messenger in the academy, so he didn't refuse, and casually threw the sphinx-faced messenger into the ten-compartment storage compartment.

Killing the Tomb Keeper and opening the Animal Courier can only be regarded as an episode on the road. Almost when they reached the center of the first floor of the mausoleum, Hu Siming and Yan Shaoou encountered a sand dune trap here. If you accidentally fall into quicksand, you will sink directly into the ground. The only way to get to guò is the occasional attack of mummies coming out of the ground. Relying on their healing skills, the two of them cautiously pushed over and passed through this level without danger.

During the period of crossing the sand dune trap, Hu Siming killed three sneak attack mummies one after another, and the optional tasks were also completed smoothly, and he obtained 100 universal points. Not only that, but the 15 experience points provided by each mummy also allowed him to move up to level 2 along the way.

As the golden aura rose, all the experience energy that had been absorbed before was released, and the body was strengthened.

School Emblem Tips: Level Up!

Current level, normal unit lv2.

Max HP +10, Max Mana +5, Attack +1.

The enhancement brought by the upgrade increased Hu Siming's maximum health to 250 points in one fell swoop. Attack damage has also been increased from 27-29 to 28-30.

Officially broke through the 30-point mark!

Although I was a little disappointed that I didn't increase the three attributes, the increase in attack power and HP limit was also good. The only pity is that the magnitude of the reinforcement is somewhat small.

In any case, it is a happy thing to be able to upgrade in the unified examination. But the difficulty of the dune trap made Hu Siming and Yan Shaoou feel a little more uneasy. Compared to the previous Maze of Blades and Hall of Flames, the difficulty of the Dune Trap seems to be too low. The academy can't be so kind and release water here for nothing. The only possible explanation is that the final challenge on the first floor of the mausoleum is extremely difficult.

"Boom!"

As the countdown began half an hour, another aftershock occurred in the mausoleum.

The previous strong earthquake had already made the underground mausoleum crumbling. After this fatal aftershock, the third and second basement floors almost collapsed, and ruins can be seen everywhere. Even on the top floor of the mausoleum, there are deep cracks everywhere on the stone walls of the corridor. In the cracks on the top of the road, there are cold water droplets seeping in from time to time, and the water splash is still getting bigger.

The apocalyptic scene in the mausoleum inspired a sense of crisis between the two. After speeding up, it took them more than ten minutes to finally reach the end of the first floor of the mausoleum.

"Fifteen minutes left?"

Hu Siming looked at the countdown and felt a little relieved.

Of all the challenges in the mausoleum before, none of them had a time limit of more than ten minutes. Therefore, the time is definitely not a problem, the key is the difficulty.

At the end of the first floor, like the previous two floors, there is an underground palace. But just after the two of them boldly walked in, a sudden change occurred. The stone beam at the entrance to the dungeon collapsed, completely sealing their way in. Then, the stone wall on the left side of the dungeon slowly sank into the ground, revealing the terrifying monster sealed behind it, the Beetle King.

It's a behemoth that was once a totem, and its size is close to that of a light truck. It has large compound eyes, sharp forelimbs, and a heavy grayish-green crust on its back. Even though they were still asleep and locked with a sealed fence outside, Hu Siming and Yan Shaoou instinctively felt fear.

Battlefield Tip: The final challenge of Escape from the Mausoleum begins.

Beetle Fury!

Description: The passage back to the surface was destroyed as early as the first strong earthquake, and in order to escape back to the surface, it is necessary to go through the hidden exit next to the guò passage. However, opening the hidden exit, and sealing the seal of the ancient monster Beetle King will also interrupt the supply of mana at the same time. Escape back to the surface before being caught up and killed by the Beetle King!

The hidden exit will open after ten seconds.

For the first time, the battlefield tips gave detailed instructions.

At this point, Hu Siming and Yan Shaoou still don't understand that what awaits them next will be a race to the death. Whether or not you can return to the ground alive and achieve a perfect evaluation depends on this last resort.

Countdown three, two, one!

At the last second, the stone wall on the right side of the dungeon shook, slowly sinking into the ground, making way for a hidden exit to the ground. But at the same time, the seal on the left that imprisoned the Beetle King also lost its magic. The terrifying monster the size of a truck loses its restraint and gradually awakens from its slumber.

The escape begins!

As early as the end of the ten-second countdown, the two of them had already taken turns to use the exploration technique against the Beetle King. It's a pity that the absolute disparity in strength makes them unable to detect anything. The only information that can be obtained is that the Beetle King belongs to an ancient monster. It took so much effort for the two of them to even kill a lv4 tomb keeper, let alone face this completely unknown beetle king, and there was no possibility of confrontation at all.

In other words, the academy placed it here, and it wasn't for the freshmen to kill at all
