Chapter Eighty-Five: The Shadow Warrior

The abandoned ruins, covered by the forest, look particularly dark and dangerous at night.

Although there were no human voices, behind the ruins, or in the bushes, there were some rustling sounds from time to time, and occasionally a few roars of demonic beasts sounded. Occasionally, explosions or the screams of mercenaries could send chills down the minds of those who ventured deeper into the ruins.

As you go further to the center, the more forks in the road the ruins create. If you're not familiar with the terrain, it's easy to get lost. However, for the Blood Knife squad with a map, this is nothing. Just be careful and try to avoid the statue guards and monsters on the road, and they won't be in danger.

Under their guidance, Lu Chengfeng and Chen Liu walked for more than an hour, and finally came to the core of the ruins.

There is a spacious square here, but at the moment it is already occupied by bushes. Around the square, it should be the council hall of the great man of the Spirit Clan, or a temple or something like that. It's just that after the Blood Moon Catastrophe to the present, most of these buildings that have lost maintenance have collapsed, and they can't be seen in their original appearance. Lu Chengfeng could only guess their initial appearance from the scale of the ruins.

"Over there!"

Bloody Knife took out the map again and looked at it for a while, then pointed to a half-collapsed hall around the square.

Before Lu Chengfeng was reborn, although he had dealt with the high-level of the Spirit Clan, he was not familiar with the relationship, and he didn't know much about the Spirit Kingdom of the Endless Forest, so he didn't know what this side hall was for. It's just that just when he and Chen Liu stopped for a while, about to follow secretly, the Blood Knife and they had already walked out dejectedly.

", nothing!"

"I thought I could leave something good here, but I didn't expect to take it all away!"

Su Ping and a subordinate's words made Blood Knife frown, and he snorted: "Don't make any noise, this record only marked the name of the place, and it didn't say that there must be a treasure here." We're just guessing, and it's normal if we don't. Cheer up and go to the next address. ”

The prestige of the blood knife was still high enough, and as soon as he opened his mouth, even Su Ping didn't dare to say anything, and obediently followed behind and continued to set off.

However, the next exploration is obviously not optimistic either.

Under the leadership of the Blood Knife, they turned three or four places in succession, even including the places that were suspected to be the treasure trove of the Spirit Kingdom. Unfortunately, either it was empty and there was nothing of value, or the building had completely collapsed and everything was buried under the rubble. Occasionally, there are some tatters, and they are all abandoned by the Spirit Clan back then. After so many years, it is not even a tattered now.

It is said that under the threat of the Blood Moon Catastrophe back then, this group of Spirit Clansmen was completely quite hasty. But now it seems that this statement is clearly wrong. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the branch of the Spirit Clan who remained here violated the ban and entered here after the compatriots left.

Either one is correct, it greatly reduces the value of this relic.

The people of the Blood Knife Squad were obviously also very disappointed. If they had maintained their high morale and eagerness after the first search had failed, by now they were almost convinced that the ruins were of no value. Even if there were, it had been completely buried under the rubble, and it was not something that a few of them could easily unearth in one night.

"Find another place, and if you haven't already, ......"

The Blood Knife looked at the map in his hand with a gloomy face, and threw out this sentence without raising his head. From the previous great joy to the current great sorrow, this gap obviously made him very unhappy, and his already somewhat fiery temper was on the verge of exploding.

Those who are familiar with the Blood Knife know that they must not anger him at this time.

After making a circle in the dark ruins, several people stopped in front of an inconspicuous side hall. Lu Chengfeng peeked and found that this place was located in the back row of the collapsed temple, and there was a relief of a sword-wielding warrior carved from granite that was nearly half broken and nearly half broken. If I'm not mistaken, this is likely to be the place where the temple guardians are resting for a while.

"The master who guards the temple of the Spirit Clan, he rests here during the vigil. Perhaps, something can be found here. ”

Saying this, with the last bit of hope, the blood knife took the lead and walked in first.

Chen Liu, who had already followed, looked at it and said to Lu Chengfeng: "I have a hunch that no one has been to this place, and the Blood Knife should be able to find something." ”

As soon as his words fell, there was a clattering sound of stones collapsing in the side hall, and the bloody knife's surprised but somewhat joyful shout: "Pull it out, don't fight inside!"

Lu Chengfeng was also in good spirits, staring at the side hall, and said, "This is the intuition of the legendary man?"

It's hard to say whether it's a man's intuition, but the blood knife really found the right place this time. After he hured open the half-open door and rushed out, a Spirit warrior with a short bow in his hand, two cross-star arrows stuck in his back, and a thin sword pinned to his waist followed. When he first saw it, Lu Chengfeng was taken aback, thinking that there were still Spirit Clan people living here. But after a closer look, it turned out that this samurai was just a summoned projection, not a real person.

Perhaps, this was a kind of active defense mechanism back then.

As soon as someone who is not a spirit person breaks in, the defenses in the side hall will automatically summon shadow warriors to attack the enemy. This system has not been destroyed, and it is indeed undiscovered here.

At this moment, the shadow warrior had already fought with the Blood Sword.

As can be seen from the equipment attached to the projection, this shadow warrior can be close and far. The short bow can shoot at enemies, and it can also defend itself with bows and swords after being close to him. Just bent the bow and shot an arrow, and the arrow that broke through the air easily shook back the bloody knife that was intercepted by the knife by three steps. There is no doubt that this shadow warrior also has at least the strength of the sixth-order high rank!

If Lu Chengfeng faced him, there was absolutely no chance of winning.

After a brief two attempts, Bloodblade realized that he would have to do everything in his power to defeat this enemy. As a result, this fifth-order peak berserker finally showed his strongest strength under Lu Chengfeng's gaze. I saw that he was holding a long knife horizontally in his right hand, and his left hand was clenched into a fist against his chest, gathering the fighting energy and blood of his whole body.

This is the signature stunt of the Berserker series - Blood Fury!

Su Ping was obviously very familiar with his boss's tricks, and when he saw that the blood knife was preparing for this skill, he immediately drew his sword to block the front. Although he slashed out three times in succession, he also blocked one of the arrows of the shadow warrior, but this time was enough time for the blood knife to complete the skill. As a dazzling red light flashed, the momentum on the Blood Knife's body immediately exploded. Perhaps because he had directly rushed into the sixth order, the boiling blood-colored Dou Qi enveloped his body, forming a rudimentary Dou Qi armor outside.

The blood knife shrouded in such a layer of blood-colored fighting armor, the whole person looks evil and bloodthirsty, but there is a kind of power that makes people tremble!

"It's really a sixth-order!"

This kind of coercion, which was completely different from before, made Chen Liu easily judge the true strength of the Blood Knife, and couldn't help but be shocked.

Looking at the blood-colored fighting armor on the outside of the blood knife's body, Lu Chengfeng was also silent for a while. In this case, the strength of the blood knife is indeed stronger than he thought.

"Hah!"

After entering the blood rage, the blood knife opened its mouth violently and roared, as if to vent the pain caused by the surging blood in his body. Then, with a wave of his hand, he took out a Taidao from the spatial ring again and entered the dual knife mode. Holding one left and one right, he re-killed the shadow warrior in his peak state.

This time, the battle situation is different from before!

After entering the berserk, the Blood Knife's body was much more agile than before, and the strength in his hand was even more amazing. The shadow warrior shot the cross arrows again, and it was already difficult to force the blood knife back. After several arrows did not have the desired effect, but was approached by the Blood Knife, the Shadow Warrior immediately activated the flash skill, quickly swept back ten meters away, jumped to the ruins at a high place, and re-opened his bow and arrows.

This arrow was charged for about a second.

Whether it was the blood knife that was being targeted, or Lu Chengfeng, who was watching from afar, he could feel the power of that arrow. Aware of the danger, the Bloody Knife began to run in a broken stride nearby, trying to break free from the shadow samurai's lock, but the arrow seemed to have a tracking effect, and eventually shot straight at the Bloody Knife.

Finding that there was no way to avoid it, the blood knife took a deep breath, the double knives in his hands overlapped, roared angrily, and faced the tracking arrow that emitted a streamer, and played his strongest sword skill - Wushuang Fury Slash!

Under the stimulation of blood qi, the two swords in his hands had completely turned crimson. The two swords that overlapped in this way, each blow had unimaginable power. After colliding with the tracking arrow, it caused a violent explosion. The sword qi and shock wave that escaped even directly crushed stones within three meters!

This kind of power made Chen Liu and Su Ping smack their tongues.

With the blood-colored fighting spirit stirring, the smoke and dust caused by the explosion were quickly dispersed. The Blood Knife, which had regained its sight, looked at the enemy vigilantly, not wanting to find an opportunity to take advantage of this blow, and the shadow warrior was twenty meters more away from him - this guy, using his speed advantage, prepared to release the kite of the Blood Knife!

This discovery made Bloody Knife's face become serious.

In the state of blood rage, his strength is strong enough, but maintaining this state requires a lot of consumption of his blood qi. If he continued to fight, his blood and qi would be burned out, not only would he fall into a state of serious injury, but also seriously damage his body's vitality. It is precisely for this reason that the lifespan of berserkers is often much lower than that of other powerhouses of the same rank. Right now, he can hold down the shadow warriors, but it won't be good if he can't end the battle quickly!

He hesitated for a moment and glanced at Su Ping on the side.
