There is nothing good to say about the failure of the trio. The cunning snake king is not easy to deal with.
The first wave of successful kills gave them some inertia, and they subconsciously felt that the "Snake King" was nothing more than that.
The Snake King has already died twice. As long as you deal with it carefully and have the giant toad as a temporary ally, it is not difficult to kill him a third time.
As a result, after confirming the human threat, the cunning snake king withstood the big toad's beating and forcibly pounced on the trio, playing a game of heaven and earth.
Her flesh and blood turned into a deadly poisonous pool. The three people who were too close were completely swallowed up by a regular-level self-destruction venom. Even they had never experienced such a battlefield. An opponent of this level actually said that self-destruction would happen.
Self-explosion, and this set of trump cards of "life-turning venom".
"I'm afraid her primary target isn't even us. I saw that toad was also seriously injured."
"For an abyss lord who is in a high-concentration abyss environment, no matter how serious the injury is, as long as he does not die on the spot and gives it a period of time, it is equal to no injury."
This statement is somewhat counter-intuitive even to high-level professionals.
In most cases, once a higher-level professional is injured, the treatment is more difficult and requires more time and additional resources. Doctors provide low-level and high-level treatment methods, and the medical expenses are not at the same level.
But Kunba did not refute this "new common sense".
Because the person who said this was the "nun" who couldn't see the details.
She calls herself "White Claw", but there is absolutely no such person in Kunba's memory, and there is such an obvious nonsense title.
"Meow, I'm Black Claw Meow!"
Maomao raised his hand and tried to show his presence in front of the boss.
These two sisters, an older one and a younger one, look nothing alike.
"It's not my sister, meow, it's my master, meow."
Kunba nodded, this was a little more reliable, but this title should be a pseudonym.
"If you are willing to take action, Changping will pay enough."
Although he was unable to determine the identity of the other party, Kunba was sure just by relying on his own intuition. If he could invite this "White Claw" to take action, nothing would be a problem.
I'm afraid, she can easily kill the Snake King alone. The pressure put on Kunba by both sides is not at the same level.
At this moment, "White Claw" was silent
"safe trip."
"Ha, I'm very busy, okay, okay, let me explain, she is a dead person, a ghost, and can't get out."
As he said that, the heartless Lu Ping'an reached out and swung his hand over Chris's body, and was given a fierce glare by the big cat.
Chris is now in a spirit-like state without a body. In this courtyard, she can selectively turn into a physical entity, but after leaving, she will become an undead if she can escape.
Obviously, in a sense, she is now the "AI" running on the hardware of the courtyard. After she goes out, she becomes a bubble on the water, and the water waves naturally dissipate.
At this moment, he thought of a possibility. Kunba paused for a moment and almost lost his composure on the spot.
He had naturally heard of such a big thing in the ancient city before, but just from the fact that he was "dead", he had already guessed who it was.
"How is it possible on a scale!"
His colleagues were even more surprised and even took a step back.
The two near-regular-level combatants froze at this moment. At this moment, Lu Ping'an knew the bad reputation of the big cat. Even at the top, everyone knew about it.
"See, show some respect to me."
Kris closed her eyes and lowered her head with a cold face, looking like a devout nun praying with her fists clasped.
But the triumph in his words was like a cat wagging its tail.
""The two foreign elders were restrained. Is this scale beast really fallen? But what is her current form of existence?
Kunba suppressed the urge to look at the nun and did not dare to look any further.
And if it is really "her" remnant soul, then the upper limit of this "demiplane" may have to be re-evaluated.
"What about this one? Can she take action?"
Kunba looked at the "silver healing ball" floating in mid-air. From his perspective, he could naturally tell that it was a great spiritual master/mechanic who had given up his body.
Such beings take a deviant approach and live in gray areas for a long time. Their actual combat power is generally higher than the normal level.
If he just sees such a guy outside, he will not hesitate to find some old friends and start preparing to encircle and suppress him. Well, it seems to be a legal profession now? That's okay.
"She is a prisoner and can't go out. She doesn't have much fighting power after she gets out. She lost all her dolls and now she's just a useless, free wage earner."
Kun Ba was a little surprised, not because of this unlucky spiritual master, but because of Lu Pingan's attitude towards the two elders.
The most outrageous thing is that this young man is so rude and the two elders are so calm, as if they are used to it.
The strong have their own pride. If the dragon is humiliated by the weak because the dragon is trapped in shallow water, he will also have his own grievances and dissatisfaction. Such a peaceful relationship will never be possible. Not only is the special relationship between the two parties, I am afraid it also means that both parties Treat each other as beings of the same class and level.
"Lu Ping'an actually vaguely took the initiative."
At this moment, feeling the boy's "unfathomableness", Kunba also gained some confidence in this task.
In fact, the difficulty of this task has exceeded expectations.
In the initial judgment, after the snake king dies once, he should fall directly to the rule level. Death is serious in most cases and the price is very heavy.
But now, the Snake King has died at least twice, but it was still at the rules level just now, and the expected information was wrong.
"You underestimated the strength of the Throne of the Abyss here. I saw it before and found that it was the scales of the 'Grand Duke of the Abyss'. It is impossible to destroy it."
Lu Pingan also pointed out the key to the misjudgment. Due to the unusual power of the throne, the Snake King had incredible regeneration and resurrection abilities in this area.
"The folklore is actually true? Our intelligence system is wrong instead?" Kun Ba was a little helpless. This intelligence was obviously very problematic, but as an insider, the Master Wang who collected and transmitted the intelligence might have suffered the consequences.
.
"Why not send real rule-level people down?" Lu Ping'an was a little curious, wouldn't the stronger the better for this kind of mission?
The two looked at each other, then shook their heads subtly.
Lu Pingan instantly understood that in terms of social status in the country, there was still a gap between the quasi-rule and regular levels. In fact, they still had a vague aloofness of "an independent country".
Is it okay to pay them to fight with the wind and let them go down to the seventh level of the abyss to fight for their lives? They don't think it's a good deal. At their point, they don't lack resources and money.
This is also the fundamental reason why several rule levels and "assassins" are needed to deal with the Snake King. In most cases, these rule levels are not willing to fight tooth and nail.
Of course, there are also reasons that go back to the past. In many small worlds, once "super-standard" combat power appears, it will trigger an overreaction in the secret realm and the small world, which is not a good thing for most of the individuals.
"Isn't there no other way?"
At this moment, Kun Ba was a little depressed.
He didn't feel that the cunning Snake King had fallen down to the regular level after any previous attack, and that her strength had declined much slower than calculated.
And it seems that the big toad was also severely injured, maybe she has given up.
"Isn't there no way out? It requires real rules level to ensure the success of the hunt. Isn't there none here?"
"Yes, I have."
Lu Pingan smiled and answered in the affirmative.
"Who?" The outsider showed surprise. He had paid so much for Changping this time and it was impossible to accept failure.
"You guys."
As he said that, Lu Pingan pointed to themselves.
Before they could shout angrily, "Rule level combat power is not equal to real rule level", Lu Ping'an pointed his thumb back at the tall library.
"Forbidden Library, you go in now, it will take at most one hour, and you will be at the rules level when you come out."
"Don't be kidding," another high-level professional almost said, but Kunba glanced at Chris, who still had his eyes lowered, and nodded.
"I believe, what do we need to pay?"
"You will know Ms. White Claw when you go in. Please lead the way for the two of you." Lu Pingan smiled and asked Chris to lead the way.
Tens of minutes later, even if there was time to speed up, Kun Ba and the two still did not come out.
Outside, while Lu Pingan and Xia Qin were killing time, she asked a question.
"How are you sure they can break through? Isn't it difficult? There is no knowledge they need in the library. Is it enough to just rely on the knowledge base of the subordinates?"
Maomao, who was watching on the sidelines, was also confused like this, and he came over to wait for Lu Pingping's answer.
The boy who couldn't lie spoke so naturally at that moment, as if everything was true.
"The rule level requires 'self' and the confidence of 'I am the rule, I am the world.' This is not what I said, it was what she said."
Lu Ping'an shrugged and told Big Cat's previous teachings. At this moment, Big Cat was a little surprised. He just said casually, Lu Ping'an actually remembered it so clearly?
In fact, Lu Pingan remembers most of what Big Cat said, even if it seems to be boring chatter or complaints about geographical specialties, it may be useful news to Lu Pingan.
"Now it's not that I say they will break through, but that the 'quasi-god' tacitly agrees that they can make a breakthrough somewhere, and it can really make up for some of their shortcomings. They can exchange combat knowledge, which is still useful to some extent."
Learning by analogy makes a thousand miles faster. In Lu Ping'an's eyes, what they may be missing is an opportunity.
"How dare you say that? You don't know how difficult it is to break through the rules level." Even Big Cat was a little surprised at Lu Ping'an's courage to talk nonsense.
"Try it, it won't be a loss anyway. If it fails, it means they are not good enough and their level is inferior. But if they succeed"
With that said, Lu Pingan looked towards the big library and showed a proud smirk.
"Then they owe me a lot."
At this moment, the light beam on the Great Library was bright and beautiful, like a rainbow hanging in the sky.
