Chapter 41: When long-range can't be used, it's natural to use melee to open the way
In fact, Aya's size was not as big as the scarab, and she only got the upper hand by taking advantage of a surprise attack. However, due to the seemingly indestructible carapace of the opponent's body, the little black dragon's tail-flicking attack failed to hurt it - to be exact, it did not break the defense, and after the scarab beetle waved its six legs indiscriminately in the belly for a while, it finally turned over and continued to rush forward violently.
We all have much greater strength, adaptability, and vitality than other animals, but unfortunately because the oxygen content in the atmosphere is not high enough, they are too small to turn Blue Star into the birthplace of a certain Z-headed hunting race. But when these little things come into contact with cosmic rays, nuclear radiation, biological weapons experiments, or legendary unscientific magic, they can always turn into giant monsters that can give even the Light Warriors from the M87 Nebula a headache. After the survival advantage of the insect is multiplied with the size of the insect, all the tanks and fighters have become the director to scoop up all kinds of hot scenes to make the audience recognize that this is indeed a blockbuster soy sauce party, and the real ones who can stand up in the crisis and save the world are naturally the handsome men and women with the halo of the protagonist.
Obviously, there is no such thing on Aya. So when the scarab beetle rushed in front of her with the dragon's breath, the little black dragon was knocked away on the spot. She slid straight against the tall rock mass where the entrance was, startling the students standing nearby to flee in all directions to avoid being crushed.
"Look into the distance. Just as Alicia watched the attacks on the scarab beetle create countless sparks to find the opponent's weakness, Yuege's voice rang out again.
It turned out that while everyone was busy dealing with the scarabs, the entire underground city was resurrected at some point...... No, it should be called awakening. The various shapes of the building, which had been carved with elaborate trims but did not understand its function, opened a door, and out of it came many heavily armored and thick-armored puppets with huge weapons in their hands, and their movements were very slow, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was clumsy, and the classic shapes of the puppets that were two people tall were gathering towards the steps where everyone was standing with heavy steps.
To make matters worse, the entrance behind the crowd was blocked by a huge stone door that suddenly appeared out of the wall.
They didn't seem to have been sent out by the owner of the mausoleum.
"Like, Icarus. Alicia turned to the Queen of the Sky beside her, "Can you get rid of that big bug without using the Ouranos system?"
"APOO can kill an opponent by piercing their carapace. Mar, do you want to use it?"
β...... Forget it. That kind of powerful attack is enough to destroy the city in one blow, and if the dungeon in front of me is destroyed with the fireworks, Mentor Chrissy will definitely strangle me. β
Sophia, who was rushing to Alicia's side to ask about countermeasures, threw herself on the ground very gorgeously when she heard this, and then jumped up suddenly, and she didn't care about patting the dust off her dress, so she slapped the little Lori with her head and slapped a fan, you have a reason, hey!?
Little Lori looked at the pink princess speechlessly, pinched the bridge of her nose and said, If you can kill mutant insects with insecticides, where can you find a role for the protagonist who analyzes the weaknesses of the other party and finally kills them with one blow?
"Don't treat the insecticide as a nuclear bomb because you're afraid of spiders, heyββ!!" Sophia pulled the little Lori's stupid hair and said wildly, "If you don't think about it, the scarab beetle and its puppet brothers who ate the animal feces that grew up with the special feed of the Celestial Empire are going to rush, hurry up and let Icarus bombard them with the map!"
"You've said there was a possibility of a landslide!?" said Alicia, desperately trying to save the Dumb Hair, "The owner of the mausoleum is obviously worried about this kind of thing, so all of us are melee units. In that case, we're going to have to use melee units to fight head-on as well!"
"Are you going to let Ilya or William ......?"
"Perhaps, not to mention the scarabs, even those puppets can grind them both to death. Alicia said as she waved her right arm straight into the air and said loudly, "I'm talking about Xana-chan, who has one of the strongest melee DPS brackets and has flame wings and defense neutralization!"
With the voice of the little Lori, a fire meteor shot out from the gate full of divine aura that suddenly appeared above Elicia's head, and rushed straight towards the scarab beetle that was climbing up the steps.
It is undeniable that the carapace of the scarab beetle is indeed very thick, not to mention the scattered attacks of the students, even the dragon breath of the night sprayed on it only left a little scorched trace. But in the face of the petite girl with a fire wing on her back and a sword with a resolute expression on her face, the scarab beetle stopped for the first time and curled up in a defensive posture. According to Alicia's estimation of the hardness of its carapace, even the main cannon on the Krista would not have tried to kill this guy in three shots, but none of this meant anything to Xana.
As long as the enemy does not have the corresponding law-level strength to fight, no matter how high his defense is, he will be cut in front of Xana.
In the empty underground space, a girl wrapped in flames sounded loudly, and then I saw a red light go straight through the huge body of the scarab, and then the body of the fire phosphorus scarab beetle flying around like petals in the sky was gorgeously split in half, and fell to the ground with a bang, raising countless dust.
Seconds fell.
"Xana-chan, the puppets down there, pleaseβ" Alicia said loudly as she stood on the steps and waved her arms at the beautiful girl who had just landed below.
"You're not polite at all. Sophia said with her face covered.
Hearing this, Xiao Lori raised her head and put on a natural expression, saying that it was natural. She doesn't have to wait with me for a long time like Icarus, so I'm sure I'll have to seize the precious summons and make the most of her mighty combat power. β
β...... This feeling that working under you must be sad suddenly came to my heart?"
"Yes, yes. While watching Xana continue to exert her power below, the army of puppets that were originally about to run away in tears when the regular army saw it was scattered, waved her hand indifferently and said, "It seems that there are only so many defense systems inside the mausoleum, and when Xana finishes the work, we can go directly to the top of that giant pyramid to hunt for treasures unhindered." β
Sophia couldn't help but look at the huge pyramid in the distance, opened the fan, hid her face, and said, "Alythea, do you think we will find it here?" According to the information of the mercury lamp, this should be the mausoleum of the protΓ©gΓ© of Master Reze named Simon, right?
"It's a possibility. Alicia nodded and muttered, "Obviously, there's no sign of a grave robber underneath this. Regardless of whether the money-hungry ones were caught in traps or wiped out by the Scarabs and Puppet Legions, it's certain that they didn't scoop up the deepest treasures. In other words, Simon was the same when he was buried, and he is still the same inside, and his funeral goods should be in the same place. β
In the meantime, Xana had already cleaned up all the puppets under the steps. The handsome and tall girl spread her wings and flew in front of Alicia, and after landing, she said lightly, it's done. β
"Well, thank you, Xana-chan. Little Lori beckoned to Chrissy and waited for her to come to her side and said, "Mentor, let's talk about it first." The rest of the yellow and white things can be loved in any way, but the relics of Master Reze are absolutely not allowed to be taken for themselves. It is a precious heritage shared by all, and if we are lucky, we must hand it over to the Western Continent Unification Alliance. β
"Yes, yes, of course. Does the old lady look like the kind of unscrupulous villain who will secretly scoop up the treasures of civilization and sell them at a cheap price in the dark underground black market to make a fortune?"
"Like, very similar, very similar!" all the surrounding students who heard the conversation between the two said in unison on the spot.
"Me, are you stinky little devils going to rebel!?"
ββββββββββββββββββββI'm the dividing lineββββββββββββββββ
After Xana had shredded the stone gate at the entrance and the others had rested, the team began to slowly move forward through the streets of the huge underground city again.
Xana, who had folded the flame wings on her back, had reverted to a normal black straight girl, but still not many people dared to get too close to her. Despite the incredible victories of humanity and its allies in the face of the invasion of the Protoss, there are still many who are still afraid of the powerful power of the Protoss and the angels, which can destroy the world. It's not something that can be changed in a day or two, and there is nothing Alicia can do about it.
Besides, everyone had witnessed Xiana's chic and heroic scarab slashing the scarab that was so hard that even the black dragon felt that it was a tooth knock, and they didn't feel awe-inspiring in their hearts.
Therefore, walking beside Xana, there are only the heartless guys from the soy sauce department.
"You say that scarab is an undead creature?" Alicia whispered in astonishment as she looked at the girl beside her, "Are you sure?"
Xana nodded, and said indifferently, when my sword sliced through it, its internal tissues were scorched by the holy flame wrapped in the blade, emitting a pungent cold black mist that only the undead can have. β
Sophia clapped her palm lightly with her fan and whispered, "Is ......it an undead creature again?"
"It should be the owner of the mausoleum, Simon. Chasi looked up at the mountain-like pyramid and said, "That scarab beetle is clearly the guard here, and if a necromancer like us is an outsider, it might be able to manipulate it?
Michelle's pretty face turned pale with fright, and she hugged Ilya's arm tightly and said in horror, Could it be that the uncle named Simon finally became an evil spirit because he did not get rest!? β
Ilya touched her natural hair distressedly, don't be afraid, it's okay. We have two angels here, even if they are thousand-year-old demons, they don't dare to show their heads. β
Seeing Sophia smirking and opening the fan to cover her mouth and trying to tease Michelle, Alicia couldn't help but reach out and grab the hem of her skirt, stop playing, let's talk about business first. Chasi's analysis just now was right, and Simon is likely not dead yet. Master Rez lived at a time when humans had begun to conduct various studies into necromancy, and although it was far less mature than it is now, it was not impossible to find a way to keep the will alive after the death of the body. β
The mercury lamp that was huddled in Icarus's arms immediately disappeared. According to the recorded behavior of him silently staying by the side of Master Reze and quietly accumulating strength, it can be seen that this Simon is a very ambitious and scheming fellow, and he waited until the master died and no one could stop him before starting to build a force. Although Simon failed to achieve his ambitions in the end due to the sinking of that sea base by his senior brothers and the fact that his life was about to die, he would never be willing to end up like this.
Well, all that's left is to think about how to resurrect him as a terrifying demon king with all kinds of strange reasons, and want to use the mausoleum as a base to find a large base sunk at the bottom of the sea, and activate it with the intention of conquering the world, and at this time, a beautiful female agent codenamed Zero Zero-Seven, who is equipped with many high-tech weapons and drives luxury sports cars all over the world, will come forward and successfully resolve the crisis after a series of dazzling battles. β
β...... Are you sure that the audience will continue to buy the male protagonist of this series after changing the gender?"
"Of course it will! As long as there is love, cuteness and meat, there will naturally be people who will come to cheer!"
"Are you a second-rate supervisor of some low-budget late-night animation!?"
William interrupted the conversation between Lori and his beloved puppet with a strong cough, and after the two quieted down, he said that Simon would most likely become an undead creature after his death, and then sleep in this mausoleum forever. But now that he is awake, why is he attacking us?"
"If you had a thief in the house while you were sleeping, you would have drawn your sword and beaten him to a pig's head on the spot, wouldn't you?" said Alicia as she shrugged her shoulders and pouted, "Well, it's just a joke." In fact, Simon had already attacked us with a sandstorm as we approached the mausoleum, and he must have taken an interest in one of us, or something that this person was carrying. Unfortunately, that person seems to be me. Look at this. β
Everyone gathered around and looked at the half of the stone slab that Little Lori took out of the bracelet, and they all showed puzzled expressions.
"Actually, I don't either, but it seems like a lot of people want it to look like. Little Lori stroked the cold slate in her hand and wondered, "And yesterday's robber mentioned the 'key to the treasure', maybe Simon woke up because he sensed this approach." β
"In that case," Sophia said with a light shake of her fan, "how about we get that Simon out and make him reveal this long-sealed secret later?"
"I have this tendency, but it's too strange to shake the whip at an undead, right?"
"Who said to use this traditional method?" Sophia said with a wicked smile as she looked at Michelle, who was shivering behind Elijah's back, "Don't you think it's unusually loving to let a ghost-scared natural dumb tear and panic desperately throwing light bullets at a certain big *OSS-level undead creature who was beaten to the point of only one breath?"
"Are youβAre you a demon?" Not only Elysia, but also the people around her couldn't help but sweat like rain.
The procession has reached the foot of the giant pyramid. Alicia first asked Xana and Icarus to fly around it a few times to take a closer look, and sure enough, there was no entrance, and the only "passage" was the small hole at the top perpendicular to the sky.
It was said to be used to guide souls, but Alicia had always believed that its true purpose was to ventilate.
Climbing to the top of the pyramid and using brute force to enlarge the holes was something that Chrissy said would not be willing to do, she tried to knock the pyramid open again with magic, but this time there was no reaction - apparently Simon, as a magician, thought that a similar situation might occur, so he deliberately strengthened the pyramid with a spell.
However, no matter how strong you are, you can't reach the law level. Expressionless, Xiana wielded a knife and in a blink of an eye, she cut through the thick stones like tofu and entered the interior of the pyramid.
Obviously, there was a path leading to the burial chamber inside, and it was no surprise that various traps were placed in it. However, when they encountered a certain angel with pink wings that could directly detect the exact location of the burial chamber, and a straight black girl with a pineapple bun in her mouth and a knife in her hand, she slashed the stone slab that stood in the way into tofu cubes, and all of them couldn't help but look at the sky speechlessly.
If the pyramid is compared to an apple, then Alysia and they, under the guidance of Icarus and the path of Xana, gnaw directly from the surface to the core of the fruit like worms.
After Shana kicked away the last rubble that stood in the way, a burial chamber the size of three or four ordinary rooms was revealed.
