Chapter 846: Skeleton General
Mi Yun read the contents of more than a dozen tombstones in a row, and finally came to a conclusion that the owners of these tombs were all generals among the indigenous people during their lifetimes, and the most unfortunate was the captain who led hundreds of people.
Ye Yunyang pointed to the Feather Gate in front of him and said, "The Protoss must have a deep meaning when they put it here. ”
"Agreed. Li Hao nodded.
Several new members of the team abeiled down from the first crypt, bringing with them new flying crossbows and trap beasts, taking with them the bodies of the wounded and dead.
After being replenished, the team was able to regain its combat effectiveness.
Ye Yunyang released the trap leopard and let it go around the cemetery, and deliberately hit those tombstones.
Everyone stood in place, looking at the nimble trap leopard.
Bang!
It knocked a corner of a tombstone off, and the stone fell to the ground with a muffled sound.
The trap leopard even used its claws to pick open the dirt on a grave, but there was still no response.
"Didn't they die cursed?" Mi Yun guessed.
"It's better to believe it than not to believe it," Ye Yunyang said in a deep voice.
Ten minutes later, the trap leopard returned from its mission, and the cemetery remained in the same state as before, silent.
"Release the flying crossbow. Ye Yunyang gave the order and said, "Form a long snake formation and follow me into the cemetery, pay close attention to the movements around you, and don't be careless, understand?"
"Understood!" the sixteen members lined up.
Two Mythical Realm Barbarian Warriors walked in the front, followed by Ye Yunyang, Mi Yun and Li Hao, and there were twenty trap moths in the sky, which was what he called flying crossbows.
As soon as the team marched forward more than ten meters away, there was a muffled sound on the ground, and the sound came from below.
"There is a change, change the formation!" Ye Yunyang gave an order, and the long snake formation turned into a triangular formation.
Burst!
A skeletal hand poked out from the grave next to him, his five fingers turned off and moved extremely flexibly, Ye Yunyang ordered again: "Retreat, return to the open area the same way." ”
As soon as the party exited the cemetery, the skeleton would finish crawling out of the tomb, clad in tattered armor, a torn helmet, and a rusty sword in its hand.
The skeleton general's body bones are basically intact, and his height is about 1.9 meters, so it looks a little thin because it is full of bones.
Click.
The skeleton's upper and lower teeth collided with each other, making a crisp sound that was creepy.
Mi Yun swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Yun Yang, you are right, these guys have indeed suffered a curse. ”
Ye Yunyang smiled faintly: "It's expected." ”
The team prepares to meet the enemy, and the flying crossbow in the sky unleashes crossbow arrows and shoots them at the skeleton general.
The Skeleton General's movements are slightly mechanical, and it is hit by a series of crossbow arrows, but its bone strength is significantly higher than that of the skeleton soldiers in the first crypt, leaving only a small crater less than a centimeter deep when the arrows hit it.
Although its armor and helmet were tattered, they were still useful in blocking most of the crossbow arrows.
After a few seconds, it slowly raised its long sword, its movements suddenly becoming nimble, swinging its sword to cut down six or seven arrows, and then slamming its feet on the ground and leaping high, splitting a flying crossbow in half.
Everyone was stunned, the skeleton general's combat power was several times stronger than that of the skeleton soldiers, and the highest-ranking team member said in a deep voice: "I estimate that its strength is no less than that of the middle and late stages of the mythical realm, we have encountered a strong opponent." ”
Swish!
Click!
Another flying crossbow was destroyed, and Ye Yunyang released a trap leopard.
The skeleton will fall from the sky, its feet on the ground with a loud sound, and the leopard will pounce on it from the side, opening its mouth to bite its right leg.
The trap leopard has a strong bite, and the average metal can be easily bitten under its sharp teeth, and it is believed that the skeleton's leg bones are not as strong as metal, and once it becomes lame, it will be easy to deal with.
Boom!
The skeleton lifted his leg lightly, and kicked his right foot in tattered boots into the belly of the trap leopard.
Like a kite with a broken string, the trap leopard smashed heavily on a stone monument, and its body was seriously deformed and completely scrapped.
"So powerful?" Li Hao's eyes widened.
"Stick to the point, everyone is ready to take on the enemy. Ye Yunyang raised Fang Tian's halberd, and the team members also held their weapons tightly.
The skeleton will stride over, swinging a sword flower with one sword, and then suddenly accelerating forward.
"Turn!" Ye Yunyang shouted out the word, and the triangular array began to rotate.
Jingle Bell!
The weapons of the team members collided with the skeleton general's long sword, and everyone had painful expressions on their faces, and many people's tiger mouths were shattered and drenched in blood.
Swish!
Ye Yunyang took the opportunity to sneak attack, and Fang Tian's halberd stabbed the skeleton general's right arm, leaving a small pit more than half an inch deep, and Mi Yun followed closely behind, slashing at the same position with a long knife.
As they approached, another team member wielded a gourd hammer, completely breaking the skeleton's right arm.
The severed arm and the sword fell to the ground together, and the skeleton let out an angry whimper, raised its foot and kicked the people in front of it to the ground, stretched out its left hand and plunged into the abdomen of one of them, and the sharp five fingers peeked through the back.
"The formation is scattered!" Ye Yunyang shouted, and at the same time took off the chain hammer behind his back and slammed the back of the skeleton general.
The skeleton will be beaten to a stumbling side, and the other team members will also show their chain hammers, or hit the skeleton with their hammers, or wrap their chains around their bodies.
A few seconds later, it struggled with six chains.
The team members used their strength to feed, Ye Yunyang hit the chain hammer again, hit the skeleton's left leg, the leg bone broke in response, and it knelt on one knee and continued to struggle.
"Look at me!" Li Hao's chain hammer smashed down from above, hitting the skeleton general's left shoulder, breaking his shoulder blade and collarbone at the same time, and his entire left arm was also destroyed.
The skeleton will break free from the two chains, raise its foot and kick one of the team members to a serious injury, and when it hears a whining sound coming from the back of its head, it subconsciously turns back.
A chain hammer flew quickly and smashed right into its face, causing the helmet and facial bone to shatter and fall to the ground together.
The skeleton will fall on its back, shaking a few times before completely still.
The chain at the end of the chain hammer was in Ye Yunyang's hand, and he let out a sigh of relief and shouted, "Report the casualties!"
"Two members of the team were killed, three were seriously injured, and the rest ...... Everyone was wounded. Mi Yun said in a sad tone.
Twenty Mythical Realm masters, the dead and wounded so far, the rest is less than half.
Li Hao walked over and said in a deep voice: "Yun Yang, our casualties are too great, there are hundreds of cemeteries on the way to the Feather Gate, which means that we have to kill hundreds of skeleton generals to complete the task, it is simply impossible." ”
And there is reason to believe that the closer you get to the tomb of the Feather Gate, the higher the level of the skeletons inside will be.
Mi Yun confirmed this, saying: "There are several large tombs near the gate, although the content of the inscription is not clear, but it is certain that it is the tomb of the prince, and the most unfortunate must be the tomb of the tribal leader." ”
Ye Yunyang frowned, the Feather Gate was obviously in front of him, but he couldn't get it, this feeling was the most uncomfortable.
Just one skeleton general has caused such a heavy cost to the team, if you can't come up with a better idea, even if you ask all the barbarians to come and help, you won't want to get the Feather Gate.
A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he said, "I have an idea, leave three people to closely observe the movement here, and the rest will follow me back to the surface." ”
Ten minutes later, there were more than two dozen humanoid mechs standing on the dirt bag, they were not equipped with any weapons, each of them was given two short handle shovels, and their task was to dig up the earth and dig a passage to the second layer of the dungeon.
"The action begins!" Ye Yunyang took the lead, controlled the two powerful arms of the mecha, and began to dig with a shovel.
The diameter of the passage is fifteen meters, which fits the width of the feather gate, and it can be directly hoisted into the shuttle when the time comes.
The dirt bag does not look high, 100 meters above sea level, but it is not easy to dig a passage, and as in the beginning, the driver changes every four hours.
Four small shuttles were responsible for lifting the excavated soil and throwing it into the swamp.
More than 20 mecha dug for two days and one night, and finally opened up the connection between the ground and the crypt, Ye Yunyang ordered all the staff to rest with excitement on his face, and launched the operation six hours later.
......
Divine Realm, Alliance of Elders.
"What, why do you want to reduce the share?" Elder Qian looked at his entourage angrily.
The entourage looked helpless and said: "It is the Terrans who have asked to reduce the number of imported goods, and the initiative is in the hands of others. ”
"Why?" Elder Qian stood up and asked, "There must be a reason for everything, right?"
The attendant cautiously raised his eyebrows, and the words came to his lips but swallowed anyway.
Of course he didn't dare to say that the reason of the Terran was that the Protoss did not take good care of Ye Yunyang, and the reason why they continued to maintain trade activities was because they had signed a contract before, and the Terran would not do anything to unilaterally tear up the agreement, but if the Divine Realm did not give a perfect explanation, they would have to reduce the number of goods.
Not only did the entourage have opinions on this, but the other gods were the same, after Ye Yunyang's death, the Presbyterian Church did not make any official explanation, let alone hold memorial and memorial activities for him with great fanfare, all of which were spontaneously organized by the people.
Of course, the human race will be dissatisfied, and the person in charge of trade is Ye Yunyang's wife, so he will definitely take advantage of the topic.
The attendant remembered another thing and said, "The Terrans also said that not only should the volume be reduced, but also the price should be increased. ”
"Are they crazy?" said Elder Zhao angrily.
The attendant smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know if it's crazy or not, but the other party has made it clear that the price of the next batch of goods will be doubled, otherwise they will refuse to trade and ship things back as they are." ”
Elder Zhao sneered: "I understand, they are afraid of the serious consequences of unilaterally tearing up the agreement, so they do everything possible to embarrass us, just to make us take the initiative to stop cooperating, it's just a dream! What's wrong with doubling the price, can't we afford it, you go and explain to the elder in charge of receiving the goods, no matter what kind of price the other party offers, we just accept it." ”
The attendant was in trouble and said, "Then the cost will increase." ”
Elder Qian said indifferently: "It's not a big deal for the purchase price to rise, why don't we just raise the price when we sell, and besides, the Terrans can sit on the ground and raise the price, why can't we? Don't forget that they want to buy back the goods, and order the major trading companies to double the prices of pills, medicinal herbs, metal ores and other items, let's play with them to the end!"
The entourage wanted to speak again, he felt that it was better not to say it, because Elder Qian looked full of confidence, and whoever dared to pour cold water on him now would definitely not have good fruit to eat.
