Diablo Destruction

The cold falling water dripped on the tip of the nose, exuding a faint smell of mud and sand. Fortunately, the Horadrics probably often practiced in these stone tombs, so the magic torches burning on the walls were very bright and bright. Much better than ordinary stone tombs.

Four ghost wolves were vigilant nearby, wary of any possible enemies. I glanced around slightly, and the situation seemed not good. There was a three-way road just after I entered. Which way should I go?

By the way, isn't Tia here?

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived. The sound of rapid footsteps came from behind, and then the sleeves were gently pulled. When I turned around, it was Tia who was sticking behind me, and Xiao Xiao who followed her like a ghost. Four.

"Fanfan~~"

Tia's voice is charming and a little soft, which I have never heard in the past few days I've been with her. In my impression, her voice is always full of energy and confidence, even if she occasionally acts coquettishly, her face has a hint of weakness. Her smile is also extremely cheerful, and her shining teeth are always accompanied by her sunny smile. She has never looked like a delicate little woman like she does now.

"What's wrong, Tia?" I tilted my head and asked curiously.

"Oh~~, it's nothing..."

Tia stuck out her tongue, smiled brightly, and let go of the cuffs she was holding tightly. In fact, she wanted to say that the ghost wolves around her are scary, and Fanfan, your current appearance is also a bit scary, but she also felt that it was very uncomfortable to say this. Humiliated, the Horadric pride kept her silent.

"Oh, that's it. By the way, which way should we go now?"

Seeing Tia showing an unprecedented hesitation, I had a flash of doubt and did not pursue the question further.

"Hmm~~Go to the left."

Tia came back to her senses and pointed to a thick wall on the left. After observing it with wide eyes for a long time, I discovered that there was a hidden door on the wall she pointed at. I couldn't find it at all if I didn't look carefully.

Khan, this is too sinister. Generally speaking, adventurers who have just entered will be attracted by the other three forks in the open place. How many people will notice that the real road is hidden on the wall on the other side? Well, it’s true but it’s imaginary. What is false is true. The wisdom of people from other worlds cannot be underestimated.

"Okay, Tia, be sure to follow me closely."

Before opening the machine door, I still repeated uneasily that although I knew she was a job transferee and a future strong person who had accepted the inheritance of her soul, this stone tomb was also extraordinary. Some are similar to the third and fourth floors of the tombs in Rogge's camp. They are the outpost battles of the boss. The terrain is several times more dangerous than the ordinary terrain. In case something happens to Tia, given her identity. The relationship between the Adventurer Alliance and the Horadric clan is about to come to a standstill. Thinking of this, I can't help but blame Sakron. Why don't you send someone more ordinary?

"Yeah. Fanfan should be careful too."

Tia also knows that although she often came here in the past, several people came together and cooperated well with each other, but now there are only two people, and they are not familiar with each other's fighting methods, so it is better to be obedient.

I smiled and nodded, pressing my hand slightly harder on the switch. With a swish sound, the thick stone door slowly rose up.

As an ancient tomb that serves as a boss outpost, the number, type and strength of monsters are naturally much greater than in other places. According to Tia, there are not only the three terrifying monsters of the desert kingdom: the discharged steel scarab, the mage-like earth vampire. King, and the Blood Belly Beast that mages fear most - a huge creature with a club. Normal attacks have a stun effect on monsters. It is said that they are warriors strengthened by evil alchemy thousands of years ago. If the weak mage is accidentally surrounded by two or three such monsters. There is basically no way to survive.

In addition, there is the ghost body Youmu (the binary body of the demon soul), the Answerer who can resurrect the skeleton (the binary body of the hollow corpse monster), there is the Answerer, and of course there are a large number of skeletons who collude with it. There are also immortal corpse monsters (the three-part body of mummies) and mummy sarcophagi (coffins that can make unlimited mummies). These are all difficult monsters, so even I have to be very alert to avoid being killed in Ti. Embarrassed in front of Asia.

The stone door opened, and a few translucent Youmen flew over from the front passage. It is said that many ordinary people were so confused by their beautiful appearance that they died without knowing what was going on.

Xiaoxue, who was in charge, had a hint of disdain in her eyes and rushed forward first. The other four ghost wolves still performed their duties faithfully and surrounded us... To be precise, it should be around Tia.

Can a ghost wolf be dealt with?

When Tia saw only one ghost wolf coming forward, she couldn't help but open her mouth. Although that ghost wolf was the tallest and seemed to be the leader of the other four ghost wolves, it should not be weak, and Youmeng's attack power was not very strong. They are strong, but they have very high physical and magic defense, and the superimposed attacks when there are large numbers are also very terrifying. In the past, I and my comrades used the ice element to control their movements, and then they struggled to death one by one.

Just when she wanted to persuade her to avoid underestimating her enemy, I said softly.

"Okay, keep going."

Huh?

Dia subconsciously moved forward, only to realize that at some point, the Youmeng that had been attacking menacingly just now had turned into a pile of crystal corpses. The ghost wolf who had returned from victory yawned out of boredom, showing how relaxed he was. expression.

Hey hey?

How is this going? When did it end? How long have you been in a daze just now? One minute? no! Ten seconds? impossible! At this moment, Dia's mind was filled with questions and her eyes were spinning.

"The ghost is just poor."

I picked up a few gold coins and a bottle of light life potion that Youmeng had dropped, and murmured to myself, almost making Tia stumble again - is this called poverty? I usually kill ten Youmeng and get one gold coin, which is considered good.

Of course, our little ghost saint also broke out at the same time. She bared her teeth and claws in the necklace and threatened me to retract those words and apologize to the vast number of ghost people who are committed to promoting world peace. Hey, who told her that she is the same type as Youmeng? What about creatures?

"Fanfan~~, um, are all druids that powerful?"

The sleeves were pulled again. Dia pointed at Xiaoxue and asked again in a delicate voice. She was severely shocked - yes, she was in a daze for no more than ten seconds. In other words, she was just a ghost wolf, just for these ten seconds. Within that time, he killed five Youmu that would take him and all his companions at least half a minute to deal with.

"Well, well..."

I scratched my chin in thought. She also knew that it was Xiaoxue's strength that scared her. She was somewhat lucky to be able to deal with the enemy in such a short time, because Xiaoxue had torn apart her giant claws several times in a row, otherwise she would have at least... uh , it takes 15 seconds to kill the enemy.

However, although I am indeed very different from ordinary druids, I am embarrassed to brag about myself. So after thinking for a while, I answered implicitly.

"Maybe I'm a bit special, otherwise I wouldn't be able to sit in the position of elder at my age."

This is indeed the truth, if it is not based on strength. There is absolutely no way I can get along with Akala and the others, let alone become an elder. In some ways, the thinking of the people from the Dark Continent is more philistine and more realistic. Strength is strength. Without that strength, you don't have that right.

"Wow~~, so that's it..."

Tia seemed to understand what I meant very well and breathed a sigh of relief. Just now, the Horadric pride in her heart was almost defeated. If the adventurers in the outside world have such strength, then how can the Horadrics be so good?

It turns out that only Fanfan is that powerful, okay, okay...

Well, judging from her appearance, it seems that she is overly misinterpreting it. In fact, there are still many geniuses out there. Although they are not as good as the freaks like Tarasha, they are not inferior to you Horadric people. I wanted to say that. After thinking about it, forget it. It would be better to let her go out and see it for herself.

There are fewer monsters near the entrance. It was an appetizer before the hard battle. After cleaning up the three or two kittens on the stone tomb corridor, we finally encountered a decent number of enemies.

Mummy sarcophagus.

This disgusting inanimate object has no attack power, but it can continuously create mummies. Of course, like the Blood Eagle Nest, the number of mummies it can create is not unlimited. A sarcophagus can release at most A hundred mummies can be made again only after the released mummies die. But even this is disgusting enough. One sarcophagus can be made into a hundred. If several sarcophagi are lined up, that's not enough. Kill until you are weak.

Therefore, the existence of mummy sarcophagi is extremely disgusting. Although the strength of mummies is not very good, in the minds of adventurers, they are only equivalent to the sunken demons in Rogge camp, but they are better in number and gain experience. If you are on your way, When you arrive, there are hundreds of mummies blocking the front, and sarcophagi are being manufactured behind you, which is enough to make you sick for a while.

There is such a large group of mummies in front of us. The dirty straps hanging down from their bodies are covered with disgusting maggots. The entire passage is filled with their stench. Judging from the number, they There are at least two "bases" at the back.

"What should I do? Fanfan."

Observing the group of mummies from a distance, Tia pinched her nose and asked. Normally, they would go around. Of course, if there is a third-level mage in the team, then using the path of flames to deal with these mummies is also a good way. , but it is a pity that he has not reached the third level yet, and is still slightly weak in the long-range group attack.

"What else can we do? Just kill him."

I didn't know that I could still go around, so I glanced at Tia inexplicably and found that she was pinching her nose, and couldn't help but shake her head.

It’s true that girls like to be clean, but as an adventurer, it would not be good if you have to hold your nose even with this smell. Of course, I know that Tia is not intolerable to this smell, but this is As for attitude, you can judge a person's mentality from a small move. At least I'm sure that if Linya was standing next to me, she would never pinch her nose.

It seems that the Horadric people have been imprisoned for thousands of years, and their fighting consciousness has gradually begun to lose.

"Hey~~, Fanfan is so harsh."

Tia wrinkled her little nose at me and said that in her opinion, instead of spending a lot of energy dealing with these mummies with little experience, it would be better to take a long way around, but she has always gone her own way. They dare not protest now. The weak obey the strong, and the Horadrics are no exception.

"Stop complaining and get to work."

Angrily and amused, I flicked her little nose as she came closer, and rushed forward first.

"Woo~~"

Her delicate nose was attacked secretly, and Tia wailed, made a face behind me, and followed me.

"hiss--"

The mummy in charge has discovered the whereabouts of the two of us. He couldn't help but open his rotten mouth and let out a strange scream. He looked over with his empty eyes filled with blood, took a swaying step, and came towards us with a mighty force.

Uh~, so it’s not that I underestimate these mummies, their speed is too slow, even if civilians encounter them, they can escape if they are not surrounded. Apart from thicker skin and greater numbers, they have few commendable advantages.

"Drink~~"

There were still dozens of meters away from the mummy, and Dia next to her launched a move, followed by a sweet shout. Two arm-thick ice arrows condensed in the forward palm. The ice arrows rotated at high speed, exuding bursts of cold air, but did not shoot out. It paused for a second, and suddenly split into three. Six ice arrows, one size smaller than the two ice arrows just now, were floating in the air, with little ice crystals bursting out. It looked very spectacular. Then, Tia gently moved her hand. With a wave, six small ice arrows were shot towards the mummy on the opposite side.

"not bad……"

I gave Tia a thumbs up. The early ice magic was not known for its lethality. Its biggest role was to control the battlefield. The power of freezing could slow down the enemy. Dia turned an ice arrow into three. Although the lethality was small, it could This technique slows down three enemies at the same time and fully utilizes the ability of ice magic. Don't say it's me. It is estimated that even Linya can't do it yet. The effect of soul magic is indeed extraordinary. It is conceivable that as the strength increases in the future, the strength gap between Tia and Linya will widen even further with soul magic.

"Hehe... Needless to say, although I am not as strong as Fanfan, I am still quite strong." Tia made a vigorous gesture towards me, her cheerful smile looked silly, Very cute.

Looking back, the six ice arrows did not fall on the mummies, but fell in front of them, freezing a short section of the passage into ice, and the mummies who stepped on the ice slipped on it. It turns out that this is indeed more practical. .

At this time, Tia had prepared the second magic - charging bomb. After concentrating for a moment, more than ten charging bombs were swung out from her hands. The thunder roared towards the mummy on the opposite side, and the charging bomb touched the ice. The sound was immediately transmitted, and the mummy standing on the ice suddenly gave off a burning smell of barbecue.

Ice type + thunder type is indeed an excellent combination.

Seeing Dia skillfully controlling the enemy in the palm of her hand, I smiled slightly - we can't let the Horadric people underestimate the adventurers outside, right? I continued to rush forward until I was less than five meters away from the mummy at the front, and then I released the magic I had been preparing for a long time.

Triple Firestorm.

A blazing sea of ​​​​fire ignited from under the feet, roaring and spreading towards the group of mummies. In a moment, a large row of mummies in front fell into the sea of ​​​​fire, screaming and turning into ashes.

"Fanfan's magic is not bad either."

Seeing me release the triple fire storm, Dia blinked her big watery eyes in surprise and sighed.

Of course, I have also accepted the soul inheritance. Although I can't compare with you Horadric freaks, I can still do it with this little trick.

I have never told Tia about Tarasha. First of all, it is the problem of the Horadric Cube. Although Tarasha personally entrusted it to me, I am not worried that they will shamelessly ask for it back, but after all, I have a knot in my heart. The most important thing is, if I tell her, guess what the outspoken Tia will say - Master Tarasha's inheritance, if she can get his approval, Fanfan's magic must be very powerful. , teach me too.

How do you want me to answer? It is impossible to say that I was ordered to do so in a critical situation. Tarasha had no choice but to pass on the soul magic to me, a magic idiot. As the saying goes, heads can be cut off and blood can be shed, but face cannot be given up.

"Ugh~~, it's impossible, is this still a fire storm..."

When she saw dozens of mummies falling in my fire storm, Tia screamed again. She was surprised perhaps more times today than she had been in a year.

Of course it's Firestorm, just an eighth level Firestorm. I rolled my eyes and decided to keep my tall and mysterious image.

Tia also followed, and the two of us briefly exchanged opinions and decided to get rid of these mummies as soon as possible, so. This is how the combination of Ice and Fire was born.

Polar storm.

Biting icy air burst out of my hand and swept over the mummies in the front rows, freezing them into half popsicles.

Hell fire.

A blazing ball of flame that melted iron and dissolved metal was launched from Dia's staff and landed gracefully on the "popsicle". After the flames passed, there was only a puddle of boiling water left on the ground.

While we were chatting and laughing, we took turns using extremely low storm and hellfire propulsion, which was indescribably relaxed and comfortable. It feels really good to have teammates working together.

In less than half an hour, hundreds of mummies fell to the attack of the two heavens of ice and fire, turning into a puddle of sewage. Three mummy sarcophagi were exposed behind the mummies. Unwilling to make mummies, I shook my numb head and lightly held my hand, Xiaoxue and the others immediately swarmed over me. The three mummy sarcophagi were smashed to pieces.

"Fanfan, your mental strength is not good enough yet."

Seeing me shaking my head, Tia, who is good at magic, naturally knew what was going on and couldn't help but giggle. Humph, it turns out you have weaknesses too.

I smiled, took out a bottle of mental potion and drank it, feeling refreshed.

"Eh heh. What is this?"

Seeing me take out a bottle and drink the transparent liquid inside, my mental strength suddenly recovered. The curious baby Tia couldn't help but come up to me, snatched the empty bottle from my hand, sniffed it, and then used her pink tongue to Gently fill the mouth of the bottle.

Hey, don’t you know what indirect kissing is?

"This is a spiritual potion."

Without any choice. I had to explain. In exchange for Dia's stunned eyes, this thing is good news for the mage. But anyway, we will be mass-producing it in the future, and the Horadric tribe will not be short of a share. I simply gave her dozens of bottles, and of course, I still "borrowed" them.

"By the way, show me your staff."

My eyes fell on the mage staff in Dia's hand. I simply gave her a big change. Firstly, we are all teammates, and I also like her energetic and straightforward personality. Secondly, she is the granddaughter of the elder. This favor It’s worth selling the land.

When I took Tia's whiteboard staff and took a look, as expected, it only had a +1 fire bullet attribute.

I searched for it in the inventory, and finally took out a blue-level two-handed long stick. The attributes are +2 heating, +1 frost nova, +12% cold resistance, +12 mana, which is better than her original one. Dozens of times better.

"I'll lend this to you."

I put the mage staff into Tia's hand. Anyway, I have a lot of blue equipment. What, you mean gold equipment? Of course it's for my wife, she really thinks I'm Kaizi.

"Woo~~"

Unexpectedly, Tia didn't look very excited after receiving the new staff. Instead, she circled the ground with her toes and stretched out her five fingers to calculate something in distress. After a while, she weakly raised her head. , said with a blushing face and embarrassment.

"What should I do? My body probably won't be enough to pay you now."

"puff--"

I fell to the ground spurting blood.

The road ahead is becoming more and more dangerous, and even I have put away my relaxed attitude. I am naturally not afraid of being alone, but there is Dia here. If anything happens, let alone the Horadric clan, I am afraid that the Akaladi One will skin me.

There were more than a dozen blood-belly beasts in front of her. As soon as Dia saw their figures, her pretty face began to turn pale and her body was trembling. No wonder she was so scared. The stun attacks of these blood-belly beasts were very harmful to the weak mage. It's really scary. The chance of being stunned is almost 100%. Once caught, there is no other option but death.

"Roar--"

The figure that had been lurking for a long time rushed up. I roared and approached the leader of the blood-belly beast at the front in the form of a huge bear-man. The sound of the ground breaking through the air sounded behind me. Six small ice arrows arrived first and hit the target accurately. The six-headed Blood Belly Beast is dyed blue.

Well done, I mentally gave Dia a thumbs up. To be able to maintain accuracy in such a state, the talent of the Horadric people is really incredible.

The irritable leader of the blood-belly beasts had already rushed up with his men, roared, and raised the stick in his hand high above my head. These blood-belly beasts were extremely tall. Even if I transformed into a bear-man, I would not be able to bear it. It's only half a head taller than them.

It was not that easy. I suddenly accelerated, leaned down, and hit the leader hard before the stick fell, knocking it staggering, and then punched it in the face, causing it to taste the deformation of its face.

He grabbed the staggering leader's body and swung it, causing it to collide with another approaching blood-belly beast. Suddenly, the vision went dark, and the blood-belly beast behind the leader rushed towards him with a ferocious face. Unfortunately, the stick hadn't fallen yet. It was jumped by Xiaoxue on the side, and its huge claws fiercely tore off a piece of flesh on its waist and ribs. After landing, it kicked off its front feet, jumped back and bit its right hand, blood spurted out, and the bloody-bellied beast was miserable. With a cry, the stick in his hand fell down.

Then two ghost wolves and poisonous flower vines also pounced on them, and the fierce battle officially started. The scene was chaotic and smoke and dust were everywhere. After a while, there was only one person and three wolves standing on the battlefield.

It hurt so much. I rubbed my shoulders. Even if the blood-belly beast moved clumsily, I was still inevitably hit by the stick a few times. The force was incredible. Even my werebear state had a nearly 20% chance of being knocked unconscious. , let alone a mage.

Clean up the battlefield, hmm, there is a broken gem, huh? There is also a blue ring, which is worthy of being a blood-belly beast. The stronger the strength, the richer the net worth. After identifying it, it is revealed that the ring of the lizard: +7 mana.

It's useless, give it to Tia. She also put in a lot of effort just now. It wasn't her ice arrows that were holding me back. I would have received a few more blows if I didn't say much.

Two days later, the monsters gradually became denser, and our progress slowed down a lot. Tia told me that even she had never been to the previous area. Of course, she still knew the route to the depths...
