Chapter 99: Desert (4)
As Evel stepped on the surrounding land of the huge boulder, it was as if he had toppled one of the dominoes, and the whole earth began to collapse in large swaths at his feet.
The reason is that the huge stone column continuously pulls out the soil substrate from under the ground, turning a large area of the surrounding area into a vacuum.
It's just that the sudden accident startled Ewell, and he was planted unsteadily.
Underneath this, deep underneath the earth, is the hollowed-out obsidian substance, the essence of the fiery earth, magma. The Earth Demon General's [Earthwork Labyrinth] has finally attracted all the magma, and before long, this area will become a lava hell.
If you fall into it like this, you will definitely burn all the bones.
"Catch it, Ewell!" a clear voice sounded above Ewell's head, like a refreshing spring of water in this cruel and tragic battlefield, which could make people's spirits shake.
Ewell looked up, and a golden figure shaded the sun, casting shadows in his eyes. The familiar elven girl floated lightly in the air, and stretched out her black longbow towards herself with a little eagerness.
[Second-Order Magic.Floating].
It has a high level of practicality among second-order magic, but due to its class limitations, it cannot fly freely in the air. It's like floating in the sky in a hot air balloon but you can't change direction, only drift away with the wind.
Evel grabbed the other end of the longbow, and the additional weight caused the levitating Lifa to sink sharply, but she was able to regain her balance after that. An elf and a person hung in the air like this, looking at the careful expression on the girl's face in order to maintain the appropriate magic output, but the expression on Ewell's face was slightly awkward.
"Stupid, what are you doing here?" said Ewell.
"Huh?" As if hearing some unquestionable question, Lifa gave a puzzled expression.
"So, what are you doing here?" said Ewell, with a little urgency, "everyone is watching, is there something wrong with your brain?!"
"You're what a stupid thing you are. Facing Evel, who had said this kind of thing and was the fastest to rush out, Lifa showed a helpless smile on her face, "We are partners, we have to help each other no matter where we are." ”
Lifa's unintentional words had a rather dramatic impact on Ewell.
All the while, Ewell acted alone like a lone wolf. Although they often carry out tasks with their subordinates, they mostly act as a support rather than a reliable reliance.
For the first time in my life, I experienced the feeling of "partner".
It is the arm that can support each other in the face of ups and downs, the sunlight that illuminates the road ahead in the dark night, and the palm that stretches out towards you on the mountain peak that you can't cross. It's impossible to say what you don't want.
The heart-wrenching emotion haunted Ewell's heart, and his eyes were a little red while he wanted to laugh. So he turned his head away from looking directly at Lifa, turned his head forcefully, and agreed in a soft, and obviously much more honest tone: "Then what else to say, let's go!"
Lifa smiled softly, and her eyes turned serious in an instant. The two of them hung tremblingly in the air, and with a rather cautious motion, they gradually approached the large stone in the center.
The stone was still absorbing the essence from the depths of the earth, and its entire body had turned a heavy black covered in obsidian, with faint red traces of magma flowing in between.
It's like two little bees about to cross the perilous rainforest to join up with another partner trapped in it. There is no assistance, no guarantees, and the whole world seems to be in the way of such behavior, and the whole world is hostile to them.
But these two little bees never gave up the idea of going deep into it. Maybe it's just the thought of the lonely little bee in the rainforest still wandering around alone, facing all the dangers alone. It was almost necessary to hesitate, and moving forward became a given plan.
So...... Hold on, Mr. Hantuo!
However, Han Tuo felt that he had encountered an unprecedented challenge at this time, and whether he could survive it was still two words.
The stone that rose and descended finally turned into pitch-black obsidian, and no matter how many wind blades cut it, it would only leave a faint white mark. Maybe he can break through the past by stopping and charging, but the environment makes Han Tuo have to give up this idea. If you stay in place for even a second, you will be crushed by a stone pillar that will come from nowhere.
Under the speed of walking and stopping, the Brontosaurus's footsteps finally caught up with him. The huge stone pillars that could not be avoided still extended to his rear, only a little distance. I was wrong from the beginning, and the enemy was not the earth dragon facing me, but the entire earthwork labyrinth that it had transformed.
But the worst thing is that my conjecture finally came true. The rhythmic stone pillars in the earthwork labyrinth do not rearrange the original earth and stones, but abandon the original storage and extract deeper materials from the depths of the earth.
Beneath the dirt is the rock, and beneath the rock is the harder obsidian. And what about the depths? It's just magma deep in the earth.
A sultry and irritable aura permeated the labyrinth, and upon deliberate observation, it could be seen that the temperature was gradually rising, which was a harbinger of the Grim Reaper's heading. Perhaps it won't be long before this place becomes a purgatory full of lava, and even the protection of the mechacha cheetah outside will be burned to ashes.
At a certain moment, the stone pillar that fell suddenly was slamming in the direction of Han Tuo. Han Taku, who avoided with his agile movements, focused his consciousness in other directions the next moment, and it has always been the case, only by forgetting the past attacks and focusing on the slightly coming danger can he ensure his own safety in this dangerous labyrinth.
As it turned out later, Han Tuo did not dodge this attack at all.
When the stone pillar brushed the mecha cheetah's side, when the mecha cheetah's gaze was removed, a hand suddenly emerged from the side of the stone pillar, grabbed one of his feet, and dragged him down directly.
This is the Earth Demon General who has just arrived at this position, and he has launched an attack on Han Tuo without stopping. The steel body slammed into the earthwork, and the sound of parts loosening came from the back of the mecha cheetah. Han Tuo only felt that his back had suffered a strong impact, and his internal organs were churning and surging in his body, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
I wanted to get up quickly, but I found that my body couldn't move at all.
When I turned around, I could see that the twisted smiling face of the earth dragon was behind the shoulders of the mecha cheetah, and the limbs of the body emerged from the earthwork lying at this time, tightly fixing the body of the mecha cheetah, which was like a shackle poured with cement, and could not make any subtle movements at all.
Overhead, a huge stone pillar of many stone pillars integrated and connected in parallel was smashing towards Han Tuo, and after breaking through a certain distance that could be avoided, it was too late to break free and escape now.
And the earth dragon behind him was still smiling, without any intention of letting go at all.
