The underground palace of death is surprisingly large.
In this dark space where you can't see your fingers, there are maze-like intricate underground tomb passages. Without the guidance of a map, it is easy to get lost in it and die.
No one knows how many terrifying monsters lurk in the dark tomb passages. Zhao Xi, who narrowly escaped death and killed the BOSS, has to explore unknown areas more carefully to avoid accidentally breaking into a certain monster's lair.
, causing the task to fail.
But what he didn't expect was that the rest of the journey would be quite smooth.
Along the way, the monsters Zhao Xi encountered the most were level 10 underground squirrels. They often nested in small groups and piled up, using their sharp claws to gnaw at the stone walls of the tomb passages and dig out the soil, as if there was some delicious food inside.
But these underground palace gray rats were not as brave and aggressive as the similar ones Zhao Xi had encountered before. When the light of the bright fire shone on them, these guys immediately fled in panic, as if they had encountered a terrible natural enemy.
He didn't dare to get even half a step closer to Zhao Xi.
Not just one or two, but all the gray rats in the underground palace were like this. Zhao Xi was very surprised and didn't understand what was going on.
However, there are not only underground gray rats in the Death Underground Palace, but there is also a kind of underground blood spider that likes to lurk in the dark and make sneak attacks, which has caused a lot of trouble for Zhao Xi.
The body of this level 13 monster is the size of a millstone, and its open jointed limbs exceed two meters. It can spray venom and entangled spider silk, which is quite a headache. Fortunately, the underground blood spiders only appear alone, although it is troublesome.
It won't hurt Zhao Xi, and it won't be a problem to deal with it once you are familiar with its attack methods.
He explored the underground palace of death for a full seven hours, and after many rests and recoveries along the way, he finally approached the abandonment point of the first paladin corpse.
Completing such a task in an extremely dark underground palace really tests a player's will and character. Without enough courage and persistence, you will definitely not be able to go for too long.
But danger always comes unexpectedly and suddenly!
When Zhao Xi came to the cross corridor of an underground palace tomb passage, a cold wind suddenly blew from the tomb passage on the right, and it hit his body as cold as if it was covered with ice.
A black figure appeared silently less than ten steps away from Zhao Xi. It was taller than Zhao Xi and wore a black robe-like robe, revealing its skinny hands.
Catch and octopus-like head.
Illithids, level 14 monsters, alienated undead devouring flesh and blood!
This illithid has no pupils in its eyes and is completely pale white. There are four fleshy tentacles near its mouth. Its skin is lavender in color and looks like inelastic rubber, covered with a layer of reflective mucus.
Its right hand holds a small white bone staff, the head of which is inlaid with a shiny black crystal bead.
The encounter between the two sides was very sudden. When Zhao Xi saw the illithid, the latter also saw Zhao Xi. It immediately raised the bone staff in its hand, and its ugly octopus mouth wriggled, spitting out obscure spells.
Zhao Xi, who was about to rush up and give it a blow, was shocked. The illithid's incantation was obviously very low, but to his feeling, it was like thunder roaring endlessly, and his whole head was about to explode. He couldn't help but feel in his heart.
Inexplicable fear arose.
There seems to be a voice in the dark that keeps telling Zhao Xi that the other party is very scary and dangerous. Only by running away immediately can we escape this trembling fear!
System prompt: You are under mind control and your saving throw failed!
call out!
The next moment, the illithid took a step forward and pointed the bone staff in its hand at Zhao Xi. A purple ray of light instantly shot out from the head of the staff and hit Zhao Xi's chest.
Bang!
Zhao Xi suddenly felt as if he was struck by lightning and took two steps back.
-175!
A huge damage number flew up from above his head, but the voice in his mind also disappeared, but there was still an inexplicable fear in his heart.
The illithid approached Zhao Xi again. The bone staff was slowly raised and lowered again, and the crystal bead on the head of the staff flashed with black light.
"Fuck you!"
Zhao Xi shouted in shock and threw the battle shield in his hand at the illithid with all his strength.
He knew that he had been controlled by the opponent's spell just now. He could not save himself and could only be beaten passively. He took a heavy blow before releasing it on his own. If the illithids were given a chance to regain control of themselves, they would probably have to die here.
So we must find a way to break this situation.
Zhi吖~
The heavy shield roared through the air, and flew in front of the illithid in an instant. The latter was caught off guard and was smashed to the ground, letting out a sharp scream similar to the chirping of a cicada.
No matter how powerful Zhao Xi used his shield, the shield would not cause any damage to the illithid, but his action completely interrupted the spell that the latter was about to complete, creating an opportunity for himself to counterattack.
The shadow of fear instantly disappeared without a trace in Zhao Xi's heart. The moment the battle shield was released, he pounced on his opponent like a tiger coming out of the gate, and swung out the war blade in his right hand like lightning.
Poof!
The illithid had just been hit by the war shield and staggered. Before it could gain a firm footing, Zhao Xi unexpectedly rushed in front of it and struck it hard on the chest with the war blade.
-97!
The illithid's black robe was cut open by the war blade, and the blade cut through its muscles, bringing out a trace of blue blood.
Hiss~
The illithid screamed again, and the four flesh whiskers on its face and mouth were crackling and waving wildly, and suddenly extended forward several feet in length, wrapping around Zhao Xi's head!
Zhao Xi had never seen such a weird attack before, but he reacted very quickly and decisively gave up the idea of another strike and immediately stepped back, swinging the war blade diagonally to meet the flying tentacles.
The illithid's tentacles looked exactly like the tentacles of the octopus. The surface was densely covered with suckers of all sizes. Zhao Xi retreated quickly, and the four tentacles of the fleshy tentacles extended in pursuit just as fast. In the blink of an eye, they stretched out a full meter forward.
No matter how long it is, it becomes more and more thick and terrifying!
What is surprising is that the attack method of the tentacles is very special. Not only is it flexible, but it can also cooperate with each other to outflank, instead of randomly twitching and twisting, it appears to be very methodical.
If it were another player who was attacked by such a clever player, they would definitely be in a hurry and be unable to resist!
Unfortunately, the illithid's opponent is Zhao Xi!
