Carter thought Xiao Zhimiao was too slow, so he directly hugged Xiao Zhimiao, held her in his arms and jumped to the bottom of the steps in front of the palace.
Xiao Zhimiao and Carter were so close that they could hear the sound of the gears turning in the operation of the mechanical parts in his body, as well as the beating of his flesh-and-blood heart.
Xiao Zhimiao watched as his health continued to decline slowly, now down to 22 health points.
The two were about to run up the stairs when a tall black shadow appeared directly in front of them.
On the steps of the main entrance of the palace, another [Grave Patroller] appeared.
There was a wolf in front of them and a tiger in the back. Two black figures holding sickles appeared in front of them in the blink of an eye, like the arrival of death.
Two black shadows leaped high toward them, and the sickles slashed at them with a cold light.
Xiao Zhimiao and Carter rolled to both sides to avoid the attack of the sickle. The falling sickle made a heavy blow. Xiao Zhimiao looked towards the place where they were just standing. The hard stone steps were split open, forming two
Deep ravine.
A tomb patroller turned around. The figure of more than three meters tall was holding a blood-stained scythe, which had an oppressive and terrifying aura. Xiao Zhimiao looked at it and raised the scythe, rolled back and pulled out a feather.
The arrow is attached with [insect-dissolving corrosive liquid] and then shot towards its head.
The arrow sank into the black mist of the tomb patroller, and it seemed that it did not cause any damage.
Xiao Zhimiao heard it make a low and rough voice, "Go back... to the place of seal..."
What's the meaning?
Xiao Zhimiao watched the tomb patroller holding his sickle high and slashing at her, dodging neatly and running away.
The black chains snaked towards Xiao Zhimiao like a black snake, entangled her hands and feet. As soon as they were tightened, the chains were all loosened, and the sound of weapons clashing came from behind.
Xiao Zhimiao turned around and saw that it was Carter who released a mechanical doll, attracting the attack of the tomb patrollers.
"There is an exorcism magic circle in the center of the palace. Activate it."
Xiao Zhimiao hurriedly asked: "How to start it?"
Carter blocked the attack of the grave patrolman with his sword, "Inject magic into it, and you will see the magic circle when you enter."
Xiao Zhimiao: "Hold on a little longer!"
Xiao Zhimiao nimbly passed through the two tomb patrollers blocking the way and ran towards the palace gate.
When she ran to the gate, she looked back and saw that Carter's last usable mechanical arm had been cut off by the grave patroller's scythe, and one of his mechanical dolls was also mutilated, and he was still struggling with the grave patrol.
or fight.
Seeing a grave patroller raising a sickle to slash at Carter's back, Xiao Zhimiao quickly drew out an arrow, drew his bow and shot at the grave patroller's sickle.
The enchanted feather arrow was so powerful that after hitting the grave patroller's scythe, the grave patroller's body also deflected.
Carter ducked back and got out of the attack range of the two grave patrollers, and glanced at Xiao Zhimiao.
After Xiao Zhimiao shot the arrow, he immediately entered the huge palace through the collapsed gate. There were illuminated luminous stones on the left and right sides of the hall. The light was not bright, but it was enough for Xiao Zhimiao to see the shimmering light in the center.
The magic circle.
Xiao Zhimiao quickly ran to the magic circle, thinking about what Carter said, and just injected magic power into the magic circle.
She put her hand on the magic circle and kept thinking about injecting magic into it, but there was no movement at all.
Listening to the sound of fighting outside, Carter probably couldn't hold on for much longer. Xiao Zhimiao's head turned quickly, and he took out an arrow from his quiver, thinking about injecting magic power into the arrow.
Red light magic element.
Xiao Zhimiao was overjoyed and inserted the arrow into the magic circle with force.
The magic circle absorbed the red light on the arrow, and a burst of dazzling white light erupted. Xiao Zhimiao put his hand in front of his eyes to block it for a moment. When he heard the sound of fighting outside, he got up and ran to the door. He saw that Carter's back was turned to her.
Sitting on the steps, I didn't know whether I was dead or alive.
In front of Carter, a huge magic circle enveloped the entire square. The two [Grave Patrollers] were just standing on the edge of the magic circle. At this time, they stood blankly in the magic circle, with two large scythes.
It fell beside them.
Xiao Zhimiao looked at Carter's motionless back. For a moment, she wanted to run away.
If Carter died, she wouldn't have to worry about it. If he wasn't dead, he wouldn't be a threat to her with such a serious injury.
They both went their separate ways and no longer owed each other anything.
Xiao Zhimiao looked at it for a while, but still couldn't help opening his attribute panel to check.
It shows that Carter has 10 health points left.
As long as you check the player's attribute panel, the other party will receive a prompt. Carter said without looking back: "You are so cold, little kitty, I almost died for you, but you actually want to leave me and run away."
Xiao Zhimiao's thoughts were exposed, and she didn't feel ashamed or embarrassed. She was originally hostile to him.
"What do you mean, for me, you can open the magic circle without me? If you could open the magic circle, you wouldn't call me, you would just run inside and open it yourself."
Kalter: "Is this how you treat your partners?"
"It's you who made me have no trust in you."
Xiao Zhimiao walked to Carter, sat down on the steps, looked at his mechanical arm that was broken to one side, and asked, "Are you okay?"
Carter turned the short knife in his hand and said, "There is no problem in killing people."
Xiao Zhimiao: "It's up to you to kill Chen He and Sun Wen, but don't even think about touching my people."
Carter: "You do protect them."
After saying that, Carter raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Zhimiao, "I have risked my life for you, do I count as yours?"
Xiao Zhimiao said simply: "It doesn't count."
Carter raised the corner of his mouth, "Indifferent little kitten."
Watching Xiao Zhimiao pick up the broken doll next to him, Carter took it and threw it on the ground: "It's broken and can't be used anymore."
Xiao Zhimiao: "How many more of these dolls do you have?"
Carter: "No more."
"Really gone?"
Carter looked at Xiao Zhimiao's "You are of no use to me anymore" expression, and said in a rather helpless tone: "There is one more."
"OK."
Xiao Zhimiao stood up, stood on the steps of the high carte section and stretched out his hand to carte, "Let's go, you are almost useless and I don't dislike you. Don't think about any more evil thoughts.
A pleasure to work with.”
Carter looked at the sly light in the girl's eyes and stared at the white and tender palm in front of him for a while. As soon as he raised his hand, Xiao Zhimiao grabbed his hand and pulled him up from the ground.
Xiao Zhimiao let go of Carter's hand and turned to walk towards the palace. A black shadow spread quietly from the edge of the magic circle. Carter glanced back coldly. The shadow immediately stopped and quickly retreated into the darkness.
among.
Xiao Zhimiao turned around and looked at Carter, who was standing there, "Are you leaving?"
The coldness in Carter's eyes dissipated, "Here he comes."
As soon as Xiao Zhimiao and Carter entered the palace, they saw a rickety figure standing in the magic circle.
The figure noticed someone approaching and turned around, revealing his dead white face full of wrinkles.
It's Moller, the mission NPC Xiao Zhimiao encountered before.
Seeing Xiao Zhimiao's lifeless face, his expression became vivid, "Ah~ look who this is, a Dark Nighter, and..."
Moller's eyes glanced at Carter beside Xiao Zhimiao. His pupils shrank and his figure began to shake violently.
Xiao Zhimiao seemed to have seen something that frightened him. He opened his mouth and trembled for a long time, unable to say a word.
Xiao Zhimiao raised his head and glanced at Carter, who looked indifferent, as if he didn't see anything unusual about Moller.
When Xiao Zhimiao looked away from Carter and looked at Moller, he had returned to his previous nervous appearance.
Why does this NPC keep having bugs?
"It's really surprising that two Dark Night Men came to the temple first, but it doesn't matter. Even if you are Dark Night Men, God will take care of you."
Moller's eyes, mostly white, rolled around. He turned around, faced the statue in front of the hall and stretched out his hand.
"I have already felt the breath of Mora. Her faith has almost been completely swallowed by the crypt. I cannot leave this sacred magic circle and set foot in this dark place. If the Dark Night One helps me rescue Mora, I will be grateful."
With that said, Moller handed a round stone that emitted light to Xiao Zhimiao, "After finding Moller, inject magic power to activate a magic circle, and I can take my poor daughter away."
"Dark Night One, I must see that my dear Mora is intact, otherwise..."
Maura let out a sinister laugh, which looked very eerie in the dim environment.
After Moller finished speaking, his figure disappeared into the magic circle.
As soon as Moller disappeared, Xiao Zhimiao saw a door exposed at the bottom of the statue.
Xiao Zhimiao raised his head and looked at the statue in front of him. This statue seemed to be the same statue as the previous safety point. A man was placed on a cross, but half of his head had been broken off, and the other half did not know where it went.
Looking at the remaining half of the face, Xiao Zhimiao always felt familiar.
At the foot of the statue, Xiao Zhimiao saw the same carving picture as before under the statue at the safety point. A group of people were kneeling on the ground. Half of the people had tiny lights on their heads, and the other half were shrouded in shadow.
It looks like a picture of praying to gods. Is this man a god?
Xiao Zhimiao quickly rejected this idea. How could a god appear in such a dark cave full of monsters?
Xiao Zhimiao took out the key from the system backpack and held it in his hand. The light of the key pointed in the direction of the door.
As soon as Xiao Zhimiao and Carter walked into the door, the door behind them disappeared, and the scene in front of them turned into a corridor with many doors.
The light in the corridor was very dim. The long corridor was only illuminated by two or three candles. The flames of the candles were still flickering, and it felt like they would go out at any moment.
There are many monsters with terrifying shapes and twisted postures carved on the walls on both sides of the corridor. In addition to [Stone Statue Imp], these statues also include [Human-Faced Scorpion] and other monsters, as if all the monsters in the crypt are mixed together.
.
She also saw the [Grave Patroller] standing in the middle of these monsters carrying a scythe. The tall human figure was very conspicuous among these monsters with twisted postures and weird looks. These statues were lifelike and seemed to come alive under the shaking light.
Just like coming here.
The dark corridor with no end in sight is very scary.
Xiao Zhimiao looked at the key in his hand. The light of the key had dissipated and no longer gave out a guiding light.
