At first, everyone thought that the monsters they encountered had become stronger, because they had gone deep into the tomb, so they had encountered more powerful monsters.

But He Zhi soon discovered that this did not seem to be the case!

On the morning of the third day after He Zhi and his party entered the ancient tomb, He Zhi and his party encountered a group of panicked adventurers. There were five adventurers in the group, three women and two men, two men a paladin and a druid, and three women a combination of Amazons, assassins and mages.

The equipment level of this small group of adventurers is quite good, at least it seems that they are already medium-level adventurers. According to He Zhi's estimate, if these people are placed in the game, they will almost look like level 30.

This level is almost all possible in a normal Diablo game. And their equipment is quite good, He Zhi can feel at a glance that these five people are the kind of absolute elite adventurer squad, and the equipment on their bodies is all the best equipment they can get at their current level, and judging from the actions of several people and the old scars on their bodies, they are by no means the kind of rookie group with only level and luxury equipment.

Even in Nightmare difficulty, this team of adventurers is definitely quite combative. But now it's just the second act of normal difficulty, and three of the five of them have already been seriously injured! The two male adventurers who are obviously in the role of meat shields are all covered in scars. The two limped with each other, and the female Assassin was the most seriously injured, with bandages all over his body, and the man was already unconscious, and had to lie on a stretcher for the other two female adventurers to carry.

When he saw this team, He Zhi was already very surprised. After He Zhi stepped forward and won the favor of the other party with a vial of healing elixir, the news he heard from the other party made He Zhi even more surprised.

The injuries on their bodies were not caused after going deep into the Tomb of Talasya!This team of adventurers entered the Tomb of Tarasia yesterday morning, and soon after entering the Tomb of Tallasia, they encountered a demon team led by an elite demon. For these well-armed adventurers, elite demons are like a treasure trove on the move.

Although in this world, elite demons do not drop equipment directly, but after the elite demon dies, it will leave behind a lot of materials that can be used to craft equipment and potions.

These adventurers collect the materials left behind by the elite demons, and then return to the town to find a blacksmith or apothecary they know well, and for a small fee, they can get the equipment and potions they want.

Therefore, when most adventurers see elite monsters, their eyes still light up, giving people the feeling that players in online games on Earth see the small bosses that appear on the world map.

Moreover, this squad of adventurers themselves is quite conceited. They felt that with their level and equipment, they should be invincible in this ancient tomb of Talasha, and they could kill any monster they wanted.

Therefore, this adventurer team did not hesitate to go up to fight after discovering that elite demon team.

But only a few minutes into the battle, the team of adventurers felt something was wrong. Because the strength of this elite demon squad is unprecedented!

You know, this adventurer team itself is not an ordinary team. They are also the same team that has explored the harbor of Kurast and even more dangerous places, and has a lot of adventure experience.

Even the legendary underground palace of Mephisto has been explored several times. He even fought with Mephisto, the demon god of hell, and retreated.

Although they had not been to the Tomb of Tarasya, according to the traditions of this world, all the demonic forces were basically stronger the farther east they went, the closer they were to Mephisto's lair.

And since the Talasya Tomb itself is only a relic near Lugoin, the strength of the monsters in it should naturally be one level lower than that of the Kurast Harbor.

Therefore, these adventurers never thought that they would encounter a tricky enemy in the ancient tomb of Tarasya!

When they fought against the demon squad led by the elite demons, these adventurers soon discovered that their own skills were surprisingly ineffective against each other!

Especially the mages. In this squad, the mage and the Amazon are the core of their team. One of them is an ice mage, and the other is a longbow with lightning damage, and mainly uses lightning and sword power to hit the enemy Amazon.

The equipment of the druid and the paladin is not bad, but their real high-quality equipment is all focused on armor and shields. In terms of physical strikes, the druids and paladins are not so powerful.

However, in their previous adventures, the combination of mages and Amazons was almost invincible. Even if some demons have the ability to resist the power of a certain line of elements, they can resist the power of a mage or one of the Amazons, and another can defeat the other person.

However, the group of elite demons they encountered in the ancient tomb of Talasha completely resisted the elemental power of the mage and the Amazon! Although the two main attackers of the adventure team had tried their best, they could barely hurt each other!

Moreover, the strength of this group of elite demons themselves is also amazing, and the two paladins and druids who are well-equipped and have a lot of adventure experience have almost only lasted less than ten minutes before they have been cornered.

A group of monsters surrounded the two of them, and the paladin's armor and shield were shattered, and the druid had a broken leg.

In desperation, the female assassin, who was only making the final blow at the last moment, had to strike in advance, trying to directly kill the elite leader on the opposite side and save her companions from the desperate situation.

However, she still underestimated the strength of the other party too much, even if the female assassin attacked with all her might, all the attacks hit the defenseless elite demon leader, and it actually only caused the other party to suffer a little injury!

Moreover, the demon leader actually had ice type rebound damage on his body! As a result, the female assassin was frozen by the rebound damage on the demon leader's body, and her movement speed slowed down suddenly.

Then the demon leader reflexively slapped her palm, and directly almost broke the slender waist of the female assassin!

Fortunately, in a desperate situation, the druid suddenly broke out. In a desperate situation, he frantically used his unskilled Violent Bear Transformation. The druid turned into a violent bear more than three meters tall and fought his way through a group of elite monsters, while the paladin also charged with a white blade, desperately saving the female assassin who was almost killed on the spot at the cost of a serious arm injury.

After the group escaped by fighting a bloody way, looking at the demon army chasing after them, the mage immediately started the short-distance teleportation without hesitation.

However, while the mage's short teleportation helped them escape the demon army behind them, it also caused them to lose their way in the ancient tombs of Tarasha.

So for the rest of the day, they kept wandering around the tomb, trying to find their way out.

If all is in order, it will not be difficult for these veteran adventurers to leave the Tomb of Talasha. However, the monsters roaming the tombs blocked their path.

Especially after these adventurers fought with several waves of small demons, they found that even these little monsters that were not elite demons had actually become extremely powerful. Normally, they would have been a little monster that they could easily defeat, but now they also have the power to resist the power of the elements!

Their mages and Amazons often get into a bitter battle with a group of imps when they open their way. And because the two of them don't have paladins and druids in front of them as meat shields, the two of them are often in danger. There was even one time when he accidentally attracted the attention of a team led by an elite demon, and the mage had to panic and lead a group of people to open the short teleportation again.

As a result, this group of adventurers did not leave the dangerous tomb as they expected, but went deeper and deeper into the tomb. Moreover, they themselves couldn't tell the direction at all, until they met He Zhi and his party, and then they knew that they had actually run in the wrong direction in a panic, and they had been thinking about coming from the depths of the ancient tomb.

"That's pretty much all they heard from them. Returning to Jiang Yueying and his party, He Zhi gathered a few people together and said to them, "Now it seems that it is not because we have gone deep into the depths of the ancient tomb that we have encountered powerful demons. It's that the demons themselves here are growing in strength. I suspect it's still Mephisto's work. Moreover, this time he used what was probably even more powerful than before. In the Tomb of Tarasha, not only the elite monsters have mutated, but even those ordinary monsters have also mutated. ”

"What the hell! No wonder I said how it was a while ago that even an ordinary little devil could be so difficult to deal with. Cold Frost immediately nodded his head like a chick pecking rice.

"So what are we going to do? Do we want to go deeper? Now that the communication is cut off, I don't know what happened to Sakura's side. Jiang Yueying frowned, as if she was a little withdrawn.

"No, it doesn't matter what happened to Sakura's side. We continue to go deeper. He Zhi didn't hesitate at all, and said to Jiang Yueying.

The news he had just gotten from those adventurers had given He Zhi some wonderful associations. He suddenly felt that the "mutations" of the elite monsters such as Andariel in the first act before were not mutations at all—it was just that Andariel had improved from ordinary difficulty to nightmare difficulty!

In normal difficulty, even the final boss Diablo or Baal should only have the same strength as the captain, but under the nightmare difficulty, Andariel already has the strength to surpass the major!

And the changes that are happening in the ancient tomb of Tarasya now seem to be exactly the same thing! All these monsters are not strangely mutated, but their difficulty has been artificially raised from normal to nightmare!

But is it possible for such a thing to happen? In the game, Ho Zhike has never heard of such a thing! Of course, this cannot happen in any computer game itself. Before the player has cleared the level, the difficulty of the game itself has increased inexplicably!

Wait a minute...... Clear the customs?!He Zhi suddenly had a flash of inspiration. Suddenly, he thought of a question that he had never asked Jiang Yueying and the others about.

"Major Jiang, you have always said before that this world of exploration missions has been explored many times by you. And the exploration degree of the entire mission world has reached more than 95%. I would like to ask, where is the deepest place in this pioneering world that you have explored? Harogas, the ancestral land of the barbarians?"

"Hmm. Harlogas we certainly went. If you want to talk about the deepest place in this world, it should be the World Stone Fortress. We've been to that place a few times. There are a lot of monsters inside. And there is also a large hall, which is almost all of elite-level demons. We've fought those demons many times, and we've eliminated them all. But there doesn't seem to be much there. DeCaine said that the Worldstone Fortress is the heart of this world, and we don't know what he means. Dicakane himself doesn't seem to be able to come up with a reason. ”

"You didn't find anything in the World Stone Fortress except for a group of elite monsters?" He Zhi couldn't help but become more and more surprised when he heard Jiang Yueying say this.

He Zhi suddenly thought of a question: Where did Barr go?

To be honest, Diablo was a game that there were many versions. In the original version of Diablo, there was indeed a character like Baal. It wasn't until the game was updated with the expansion that the barbarian city of Harogas was created, and the World Stone Fortress and the Demon of Destruction Baal were created.

However, when Ho Chi met the Assassin and Druid classes in this world, and after trying to determine that he could use many of the rune words that were updated in subsequent versions, Ho Zhi had basically determined that there was a Baal in this world.

However, now that Jiang Yueying actually said that Baal was not in the World Stone Fortress, where did he go? Also, the difficulty of this world is inexplicably oscillating between normal and other difficulties, what does it have to do with Baal's whereabouts?

He Zhi had already begun to feel that his brain seemed to be a little bad, and his head began to hurt a little.

"It seems that a fake secret disciple is still a fake after all. When I encounter this kind of problem that really requires my brain, I still can't think of a reason. He Zhi thought to himself, and he could only put down all the doubts in his heart first and face their current problems.
