The battle in the castle hall soon came to an end.
At first, more than thirty Yuyan Demons appeared at one time, but Zhao Xi alone used group taunts to pull them all over. Although some of them were later taken away by Bai Fan and Yun Shasha, the demon monsters he fought alone were also
Nearly two-thirds.
As a paladin, Zhao Xi's performance is perfect. He can fight and resist and is definitely the mainstay of the team. It can be said that without his guarantee of strength, it would be extremely difficult for the treasure hunting team to clear this level.
Although the other four people were already convinced of Zhao Xi, they were not to be outdone. They all fought hard and quickly killed all the remaining Yuyan Demons.
There was a thick layer of monster corpses piled on the ground, and coins and equipment could be seen scattered everywhere.
Xiaosha smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed to slits. The explosion rate of monsters in Hellboy's castle was really high. Today's harvest can fully equal the hard work of the previous ten days and a half.
But Zhao Xi's words made all his excitement disappear!
"I don't want anything anymore, let's rush up the stairs!"
What? The thief almost jumped up. There were at least seven or eight pieces of equipment on the ground. Although they were mainly blue elite equipment, high-level ones could be sold for a lot of money. How could they throw them away?
And there are so many copper coins and silver coins, which are all money!
When he tried to defend himself, Shi Yue said in a deep voice: "Let's go quickly, the Yuyan Demon has spawned again!"
Only then did Little Shark notice that on the lampposts standing around the hall, new stone statues were rapidly appearing. I'm afraid it won't take long before they break out of their shells again!
The treasure hunting team had a wonderful victory just now, but the same number of Feather Rock Demons attacked again. Can Zhao Xi maintain such a brave state?
Xiaosha is also an experienced player, and he knows very well that Zhao Xi must have used special secret skills before, otherwise it would be impossible to withstand the siege of so many monsters, and the more powerful the secret skills, the longer the cooling time.
In addition, Holy Power is required for Paladins to cast their skills, and Holy Power is not inexhaustible!
It was precisely because of this that Zhao Xi didn't let him pick up the trophies on the ground - it was a big taboo to look at small profits without caring about one's own safety. No matter how many things he picked up, he would just put them in his backpack. Once he died, they would all be exploded.
The thief couldn't help but feel his face burning. But he had no time to be ashamed at this time. He quickly covered the mage archer and ran towards the stairs on the left side of the hall, which was the only way to the second floor.
Driven by the urgent sense of crisis, the treasure hunting team moved very quickly. Even the mage with the lowest agility ran with all his strength. The group quickly rushed to the stairs.
Click! Click! Click!
At this time, the familiar sound of shattering sounded. The feathered rock demons that reappeared on the lamppost broke out of their shells again, spread their wings and flew up.
"Come on, come on quickly!"
Zhao Xi shouted loudly: "I'll guard the back!"
The spiraling staircase is more than ten meters long. There are nearly dozens of steps. It is obviously an impossible task to go up to the second floor before the Feather Rock Demon launches its attack, so Zhao Xi took the initiative to stay behind.
唳～
The nearest Feather Rock Demon swooped down and pounced on the slowest mage in the team. Shi Yue, who was following him with quick eyes and quick hands, immediately swung his battle ax and slashed at it, knocking it down above the armrest.
But more Feather Rock Demons flew over, and Zhao Xi hurriedly cast a group taunt, pulling all five or six Feather Rock Demons over to prevent these monsters from harassing the team members who were charging upward.
Zhao Xi did not dare to take action too late, because even if the skills of Thorns and Iron Wall were cooled down, he would not have enough holy power to maintain a full defense state.
Bang!
A Feathered Rock Demon had just pounced and landed when Zhao Xi unexpectedly struck out with a powerful shield strike. The blade of destiny in his right hand drew a graceful arc and passed through the chests of the other two Feathered Rock Demons.
Tsk~
The sound of a sharp blade cutting through leather was heard, and the Yuyan Demon, which was almost disemboweled at both ends, lost its balance and fell on the steps. Shi Yue, who was guarding above, took the opportunity to chop wildly with a battle ax, and suddenly screamed in agony!
"Don't be entangled, just charge forward!"
No one knows what the situation will be like on the second level, and what kind of dangers the mages and archers who go up first will encounter. With the berserkers responsible for protection, it will definitely be much safer.
At least he can hold on until he breaks through!
Shi Yue obeyed Zhao Xi's order and immediately rushed upwards behind the other team members. However, when he was evacuating, he could not help but look at Zhao Xi with a worried look.
Because more Yuyan Demons have already rushed over, they are swarming from different directions and are about to drown Zhao Xi. The situation is in danger!
Of course, Zhao Xi would not sit back and wait. When he saw that the other team members were approaching the upper stairs, he immediately raised his shield and rushed upward to withstand the Feather Rock Demon's attack. He swung his war blade left and right to chop down any obstacles in front of him!
This kind of unreasonable tactic is very suitable in such a situation. Zhao Xi's own strength and the power of the Blade of Destiny were brought into full play. The Yuyan Demon blocking it was directly chopped down on the steps, and it was basically
Unable to stop his breakthrough.
"kill!"
When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins!
Zhao Xi had no other choice but to rush upward, ignoring the claws from all around.
Stepping on the Yuyan Demon's body, he rushed up the last few steps.
call!
At this moment, a large raging flame rushed towards him, engulfing Zhao Xi in an instant!
However, the blazing flames did not hurt Zhao Xi at all. After drowning him, they continued downwards and bombarded the Yuyan Demons who were chasing up, immediately suppressing their arrogance completely!
This is a fire spell from Bai Fan. Although it is not very powerful, it is used at the right time.
Zhao Xi rushed to the second floor smoothly. The feather rock demons below kept making angry screams, but they all avoided the dangerous stairs and stopped pursuing upwards.
What a risk!
He immediately took a long breath and used the remaining holy power to cast a group therapy on himself and his teammates.
Zhao Xi had withstood at least six or seven attacks just now. Even with the protection of a battle shield, he could not prevent the siege of the Yuyan Demons. His health was once reduced to only one-fifth!
Although there is still reincarnation of fate, the holy power is insufficient and cannot be used at all, so the situation just now is very dangerous.
Fortunately, I finally made it through.
Zhao Xi looked at the situation on the second floor and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, take a rest first, don't be anxious!"
The treasure map in Xiao Shark's hand is divided into five areas, each representing the five floors of the main building of Hellboy's castle. One floor is a level, and only by clearing all five floors can the real treasure be found.
Now the first-level treasure hunting team has broken through, but the process is not very smooth. Zhao Xi has realized the difficulty of this task, and the strength of the other four team members is obviously not enough.
This is not to say that their operating skills are not good. In fact, whether it is Xiaosha, Shi Yue, Yun Shasha, or Bai Fan, they are all very good. Although they cannot compare with professional masters, their performance in cooperating in combat is remarkable.
However, their common shortcomings in terms of equipment and skills are the lack of powerful weapons and many powerful secret skills, which makes it easy for them to get stuck in fights with monsters and unable to break the situation quickly.
What is foreseeable is that in the main building of this castle, the higher you go, the greater the danger you face. Zhao Xi is really not sure whether he can lead them to the top!
Of course, his current thoughts will not be revealed. The morale of the treasure hunting team is very high, and everyone is eager to get through the second floor that is just around the corner. There is no need to ruin the scenery at this time.
"Hey, this floor is very special!" Bai Fan said in surprise: "What does it look like to you?"
In fact, without him having to say it, everyone could see the special features of the second floor.
This floor is even more empty than the hall downstairs, and there is no furniture or other things. In addition to the wall lamps and murals around it, there are only gray-white stone statues erected dozens of steps ahead.
Extraordinarily eye-catching!
And the floor is full of huge black and white squares!
