Not long after running, Ji Xun discovered that the underground palace seemed to be a "return-shaped" underground palace structure.
The area is very large.
But it's also limited.
Ji Xun and the others did not try to run through the entire underground palace.
You don't need to go through it all to guess that there are some [Secret Keepers] wandering around in some corners of this underground palace.
The three of them followed the traces of the battle on the ground and passed through a corridor before arriving at a secret room filled with broken bones.
From a spatial perspective, this is the most central location of the underground palace.
Looking at the various patterns and mysterious symbols carved on the wall, Ji Xun immediately realized that this was the final exit recorded in the adventurer's notes.
Ji Xun looked at the broken bones on the ground and muttered: "The skeleton monsters have all been cleaned up. This saves trouble..."
According to the adventurer's diary, there should have been many elite skeleton monsters near this secret room.
It is also very difficult for low-level spell card masters.
But now it's all turned into broken bones.
[Grand Cemetery Maze] The disaster level of this extradimensional space itself is not high, and the strongest skeleton monster is only at the level of a second-level disaster.
A third-level elite frost knight would naturally kill indiscriminately.
That guy has been here for two or three days just now, and he can't suppress the sanity value. The monsters took a lot of hits, and they had to be cleared away.
This is quite convenient for Ji Xun and the others.
The only pity is that when high-level spell card masters come to clear low-level dungeons, they rarely produce materials or cards.
Even if you can actually go out, the settlement evaluation will be very low.
It's a pity that the silver skeleton commander is everywhere.
In the corner, you can also see the collapse marks of someone sitting on a broken bone. I think this secret room is also the hiding place of the Frost Knight these days.
Chujiu didn't sense that there was a "Secret Keeper" near the secret room. He thought it was that guy who had pulled all the monsters away.
Don't think about it, there is no safer place in the underground palace than here.
After observing the surroundings, he said: "Let's wait here."
You can't hide from it.
It is better for them to choose a place to relax and wait for work.
Chujiu nodded, "Yeah."
Go back to the zigzag maze, and if you run further, you will either encounter a monster or bump into the Frost Knight.
There is no need to continue running away, just wait here.
...
Chujiu's injury hadn't fully recovered yet, so after coming in, he found a place to sit cross-legged and meditate, and was planning a big move.
Nan Jing knew that he could not help much, so he rummaged through the pile of skeletons, trying to find some materials for making psychic skeletons in case of emergency.
Ji Xun entered the dark secret room and his eyes were immediately attracted by the stone carvings on the wall.
He illuminated the lamp and carefully observed the contents of the carvings bit by bit.
The carvings in this secret room have the most content in the entire maze, are the most complex, and have the largest amount of information.
To others, these were engraved patterns of mysterious symbols, but in his eyes, they had turned into intermittently decipherable words.
Although it cannot be fully translated, the combination of pictures and text can help to understand the general meaning through half-guessing and half-guessing.
Judging from the murals and stone carvings I saw outside before, it should be a huge mausoleum built by a king of the ancient Tarun Dynasty for himself.
And this labyrinth is only the entrance level of the mausoleum.
There is not much information about the tomb in the murals.
But Ji Xun looked at it, looked up at the core of his head, and saw the mysterious symbol "?" again.
It's obviously just a simple moon symbol, but like magic, it vaguely touches a certain instinct that's sleeping deep in the soul, awakening the horrific memories inherited from the bloodline.
It was a feeling that cannot be described in words.
It was as if... I saw an indescribable god.
I had the same feeling when I was in the cellar of Tailor Street.
In order to prevent himself from being contaminated by some mysterious power, Ji Xun immediately put on a clown mask.
But this is just a different-dimensional space after all, and some things are not as real as the real thing.
After some observation, I didn't find any hints of "Old Miracles".
Looking at the surrounding four stone pillars, their distribution positions are also very subtle, as if they coincide with some kind of formation.
The content carved on it is that some people wearing robes who look like priests are performing a mysterious ceremony. Although the priests worship in different directions, they are all facing the moon symbol on the central ceiling.
Ji Xun looked at the patterns of the corpses that were hung for sacrifice, and he looked familiar at first sight, and thought to himself: "Isn't this the same ritual of skinning and sacrificing in the basement of Tailor Street?"
The moment he saw these stone carvings, he had a flash of inspiration.
But what is the purpose of this sacrificial ceremony?
Do you want to communicate with an ancient god?
Or pray for strength?
He didn't find the exact answer in the engraving.
Moreover, although the card master borrows the power of demons, he has no belief in gods. Therefore, in Ji Xun's impression, the ancient gods and the old sect are similar to rats in the sewer in the eyes of hunters. They are a group of crazy and extreme aliens.
.
Ji Xun didn't go to see more of the sacrificial ceremonies. His first priority now was to find a way out.
But there are so many carvings in the secret room that I can't even finish them all in a short while.
Before he could finish reading, the sound of armor clanging and scraping came from the empty corridor.
Chujiu, who was meditating, suddenly opened his eyes and shouted softly: "Here we come."
Ji Xun was not surprised.
The Frost Knight is here.
...
Even if he is weak and injured, the level 3 spell card master is still very oppressive.
The three of them watched the frost knight wearing white armor walk into the secret room, step by step, the armor clanking.
The overwhelming momentum was like a mountain falling.
Ji Xun felt like his breathing had stopped, but there was a cold light hidden in his eyes.
Obviously, the intention was not good.
Like a sick tiger seeing three rabbits, his eyes were still sharp in the T-shaped gap in the iron helmet, and he did not hide the contempt in his eyes.
The class concept in this world is very strong. Nobles and commoners are completely different from each other, let alone the exiled sinners in the Innocence City.
In the eyes of the Frost Knight, the people from the lower city were like monsters in the sewers, as if being in the same room would pollute the air.
This is contempt for strength and status.
It is also the arrogance that has been engraved in the bones of the aristocracy for thousands of years.
After taking a look at the three of them, one small character dressed as a corpse collector and two card masters dressed as adventurers were not worth mentioning.
The Frost Knight meant no nonsense at all, and asked in a condescending tone: "How did you get here?"
He didn't even care who these three people were.
The underlying threat and murderous intent in that tone was not concealed at all.
Ji Xun naturally understood this threat and pretended to be trembling: "I... we found an adventurer's diary, and we happen to know a little bit about solving puzzles... so we found it here."
The Frost Knight listened and immediately felt that the note might be the key to getting out!
He couldn't wait and said in a commanding tone: "Give me the notes!"
Ji Xun also handed over the notes in the backpack on his waist very wisely.
The Frost Knight got the note. The thick armored gloves could hold the sword, but they couldn't turn the thin pages.
He stood the sword next to the stone pillar beside him, took off his armor gloves, still holding the mysterious box in one hand, and opened the notes with one hand.
When I saw this, I suddenly felt enlightened.
With so many people coming in, there will always be a few lucky ones who survive.
Just like himself.
And the three people in front of me who found this note.
But after looking at it, Frost Knight also found that there seemed to be no way to record it based on the contents of the notes alone.
He frowned, turned around and asked, "Can you solve riddles?"
Ji Xun responded timidly: "Yes. We discovered that the maze passage was moving before, and then we ran in according to the instructions in the notes."
Ji Xun said this just to give this guy a psychological hint: We are all your hope of getting out.
When a fight finally breaks out, the opponent will definitely not dare to kill him immediately.
Unless absolutely necessary, this guy would never kill his only hope of survival.
Only those who have experienced despair will grasp a glimmer of hope, even if it is straw.
The Frost Knight could no longer hold back the urge to leave the maze. Without any nonsense, he asked directly: "Have you found any way to get out?"
Ji Xun said bluntly: "I found a clue."
This is also true.
The perception of a third-level spell card master is extremely sharp. If it is a complete lie, no matter how brilliant your acting skills are, it will be impossible to deceive it.
When the Frost Knight heard this, his heart was filled with anticipation, and he immediately asked: "How to get out?"
Ji Xun pointed directly at the carvings on the ceiling and said: "This is a sacrificial ritual pointing to the gods of the past. And the clue given by the space is that 300,000 craftsmen were killed in a trap. I guess the death of the craftsmen may have
It is also related to the sacrifice of the old gods. So I guess those craftsmen may have left some clues in these stone carving symbols..."
This is not true at all.
It was originally Ji Xun's most likely idea to break the situation.
"Sacrifice?"
When the Frost Knight heard this, his thoughts suddenly became clear.
He instinctively wanted to look up at the symbols on the ceiling.
However, although the T-shaped design of the helmet provides excellent protection, the field of vision is also extremely limited.
It is very difficult to raise your head to see what is above your head.
His instinct was to take off his helmet to get a better field of vision.
But the moment he put his hand on the helmet, he paused for a moment.
It has to be said that the intuition of the third-level spell card master is still very sharp.
He seemed to realize something, narrowed his eyes and warned coldly: "Boy, you'd better not play any tricks."
Ji Xun's expression was filled with fear as he listened, and his acting skills were flawless.
His position also cleverly blocked this guy's view of Chujiu and Nanjing, so as not to reveal any flaws.
Although this Frost Knight is extremely arrogant, he is actually very cautious.
The pressure of the previous release was actually another test of the strength of the three people. Even if he found that the strength of the three people was not worth mentioning, he was not careless and kept a safe distance from the beginning to the end.
Although Frost Knight vaguely sensed something intuitively.
But at this moment, the urgency to survive suppressed everything.
He still triggered the mechanism in the armor, and with a click, the helmet opened, revealing a fierce face.
In his eyes, these three people can be killed with just one hand.
He would never have imagined that a first-level card master would be stupid enough to hit him.
Without the restrictions of the helmet, the Frost Knight raised his head, wanting to see those mysterious symbols that he had never seen before.
Little did he know that this was what Ji Xun deliberately led him to do!
...
Almost as soon as the Frost Knight took off his helmet and raised his head, Ji Xun jerked away and retreated.
At the same time, Chujiu also took action!
But how keen is the combat intuition of a third-level spell card master?
The Frost Knight immediately noticed the intention of the little card disciple beside him to retreat violently, and sneered in his heart: Overestimating one's own capabilities!
Thinking that this guy was the key to getting out, he didn't do anything ruthless and raised his hand to grab him, trying to capture him.
Until this moment, he didn't dare to be cruel.
I was thinking of capturing and breaking a leg to teach me a lesson...
However, just when he was about to take action, he strangely found that his body was sluggish for a moment, and his heart suddenly became alert: "Eh... a telepathic attack?"
But the power of thought was not enough to stop his actions, but it actually restricted him for a moment.
Is this something a first-level card master can do?
The Frost Knight noticed something was wrong and tilted his head sharply.
He no longer paid attention to Ji Xun who was running away, but looked at Chujiu who had already attacked.
I don't know why, but looking at this first-level spell card master, the contempt in the Frost Knight's heart was swept away, and his scalp became numb instinctively.
But his combat intuition also allowed him to react immediately. He stretched out a pair of big hands, and suddenly a light blue ice spell was unleashed on his body, and his whole body immediately became chilly.
Even though the magic power has been nearly exhausted after days of fighting, it is still easy to kill a first-level card master.
The Frost Knight thought he could instantly subdue this overestimating guy, but in the next moment, his expression suddenly changed!
Chu Jiu has been secretly preparing for a long time. How could he miss another sneak attack?
.......
Frost Knight's upgrades are all from the order path [6 of Spades - Punishment Iron Guard], focusing on a control counterattack. Coupled with the Cao family's secret ice-type silver-quality breathing method [Frost Qi Jin], it can control and fight.
This is also the best combination honed by countless predecessors of Frost Knights over thousands of years.
When fighting with others normally, the enemy will be stuck by the frost spell and unable to escape.
Legion's large-scale control of the field is a nightmare for the enemy.
However, what he never expected was that his high-level ice spell power did not stick to the first-level card master?
Before he could figure out why.
Almost at the moment when he was violent, he watched the mysterious girl wearing a linen cloak suddenly change her aura, and her hair turned into silver hair in an instant. The hand knife with an invisible attitude appeared in front of her face.
The shining silver card that was ejected in the air also temporarily released its light.
The Frost Knight's widened eyes finally showed a touch of horror.
He has level suppression, and theoretically any spell card master below level three will be greatly restricted.
But the other party's cold energy is actually a suppression at the legal level?
He immediately realized that there was something very wrong with the girl in front of him!
When he saw clearly that the pattern on the card was a twisted human face, he was even more shocked: the second-level mysterious card [Arcane·Collapse of Will]!
Even second-level mysterious spell card masters may not be able to use this second-level arcane card with ease.
She, a first-level spell card master, was activated instantly?
As the knight captain of Governor Cao's family, he knows many high-end secrets.
Seeing this situation, he suddenly thought of a possibility: "You are the one...!"
The only possibility that the Frost Knight could think of to be able to suppress his own third-level ice spell with first-level spell power at the legal level is that the quality of this girl's fused demon mark is much higher than his own.
He is a fused silver mark, which means that the opponent's fused devil mark is at least of legendary quality!
And almost every legendary card has its own origin.
The ice type also has telepathic attacks...
In the innocent city, there is only that S-class wanted criminal!
The Frost Knight was also shocked. He never expected that the person he met casually in the maze would be that well-established guy.
However, Chujiu didn't give him any chance. Since it was a sneak attack, it was a killer move!
The cold air released by the Frost Knight is as light blue as the sky, while the cold air condensed on her body is as dark blue as the sea!
At the same time as the cards collapsed, the demonic power escaping from the demonic shadow behind Chujiu also boiled, and he punched out at the same time.
At this moment, my spirit was already in chaos.
Frost Knight's entire sensory world seemed to be distorted, and he seemed to see countless figures in his eye circles.
There was a muffled sound of "dong",
If you can't avoid it, you can only take it head on.
Just as the hand knife was approaching, there was an invisible position that was more terrifying than the cold air, piercing into his mind like a needle.
This is a telepathic attack!
Frost Knight's physical condition was already exhausted, and after several days of fighting, his spirit was already on the verge of collapse.
This time, it was as if his soul was frozen, and he was hammered hard, shattering to pieces on the ground.
The two knights were hit hard, their eyes instantly turned white, and their tall bodies staggered back a few steps.
But not dead yet!
The ninth day of the lunar month didn’t stop either.
Without giving the enemy any chance to resist, she punched the Frost Knight hard in the face as if a layer of frost flames were lingering around her fists.
"Dong" "Dong" "Dong"...
In the huge secret room, there was a muffled sound like a bell.
.......
Not far away, Ji Xun looked at Chujiu, who was so fierce, with bright eyes: "It's much better than last time..."
Seeing his old friend's sharp momentum, he was filled with emotion.
It's not like Ji Xun has never seen an official spell card master.
But the one in front of me is the only one who is so ridiculously strong.
Chujiu's outrageous combat power is directly related to the demonic shadow behind her.
When he was in 407 before, Ji Xun didn't know what was going on with the shadow behind the silver-haired Chujiu.
Now I can vaguely guess it.
Although it is not known which of the fifty-two demon gods the demon mark of the Chujiu fusion refers to, the quality must be very high.
At least it is of legendary quality, or an epic source card like [joker].
Ji Xun prefers the latter.
After all, there is one thing that she should not be greedy for at all, except for her character, and that is something of equal value to herself.
The identity of this old friend is not simple.
...
Because he had the upper hand in the sneak attack, Chujiu severely damaged the Frost Knight with one move.
Although the battle was fierce, the Frost Knight had lost his mind and was confused throughout the whole process. His counterattack relied more on instinct.
Underestimating the enemy also cost him.
The triple damage caused by objects, demons, and mental power caused him to retreat steadily.
It looks intense, but the actual outcome has been decided.
Even watching a battle of this level is life-threatening. The terrifying ice spell was useless against Chujiu, but it was a fatal threat to Ji Xun and Nan Jing.
The moment the two of them fought, the huge secret room instantly turned into an ice cave.
The chill is biting.
Fortunately, the walls in the underground palace were regular objects. Ji Xun and Nan Jing hid behind the walls and were blocked by zombies, so they were not affected much.
finally.
There was a muffled sound of "Boom", and the tall Frost Knight lay dead on the spot.
Seeing that the battle was over, Nan Jing quickly ran over and helped Chujiu, who was vomiting blood.
Ji Xun also asked with concern: "How are you?"
Chujiu Mian responded calmly: "It's not a big problem."
Ji Xun didn't say much. With Nan Jing helping to heal his wounds, he couldn't help much.
He thought as he walked to the body.
Looking at the overflowing extraordinary characteristics, he couldn't help but expect: This is the body of a third-level spell card master...
Without looking further, Ji Xun's eyes were drawn to the suitcase that the Frost Knight had not put down until his death.
There is something in this box that is immune to the [Keeper of Secrets] curse attack.
With this thing here, it is only a matter of time before the maze is solved.
