There is no gray fog in the royal tomb where the Skeleton King is located, which is really good news for Xue Hua. Apex 23S.
Fastest update
He had already prepared for the worst, and if his preparation failed, he would solo all the way in front of the Skeleton King, and then release the swarm of insects to fight it desperately.
But now it seems that there is no need to do this.
Xue Hua continued walking down the corridor for a while, and came to a grandly decorated hall. This hall was quite spacious, with two rows of knights' armor neatly placed on the stone walls inlaid with luxurious gold ornaments on both sides.
Four columns covered with gold foil are supported at the four corners of the hall. Many stone boxes and clay pots containing funerary objects are piled up in one place and placed next to a sarcophagus in the center of the hall.
Obviously this should be a tomb, but Xue Hua did not know who was buried here.
The history of Tristram is not long, and there has only been one king, Leoric, from beginning to end, but the person in this coffin cannot be Leoric.
Because this is not the traditional funeral form of kings in the Western world at all.
Xue Hua slowly walked towards the sarcophagus and took a look at the relief on the coffin lid.
It was carved with a full-length statue of a knight wearing full knight armor and wielding a long sword. At the foot of the full-length statue, there was an inscription describing the life and deeds of the owner of the coffin.
"Being buried here is Benjton, the fourth general of King Tristram. He made great military exploits for the founding of Tristram and used his own life as an oath to protect his oath.
After his death in battle, the wise saint Leoric granted him the honor of entering the royal tomb for his merits."
Xue Hua softly recited the inscription on the coffin lid. After reciting, he was silent for a moment, and then shook his head with regret.
This general must have died before Leoric went mad, otherwise his body would never have been preserved so well here.
I wonder if he would have been saddened by what happened to Tristram if he knew better?
Xue Hua gently placed his hand on the edge of the coffin lid and swept it, then shook his head and walked towards the stone door at the back of the tomb.
Just a second before he was about to step into the next room, there was a sudden trembling sound from the coffin behind him.
"What's going on? Are you trying to fake a corpse again?"
Xue Hua frowned, and a look of impatience gradually began to appear on his face.
He didn't want to get in trouble with the knight who had finally conquered the kingdom during his lifetime, but if it had to stand in the way, it would be his fault.
The creaking sound of the coffin behind him became louder and louder, and finally exploded after a roar. Xue Hua gently spread his hands, and the dimensional door behind him opened, and the swarm of insects that had been waiting in Leviathan for a long time immediately swarmed out.
out.
"Who... dares to disturb my king's sleep!"
A rough voice came from the exploded coffin in the center of the hall. Xue Hua turned around and saw a knight wearing steel armor and holding a giant sword slowly walking out of the dusty stone dust in the sky.
Although the armor worn by this knight is not professional equipment because it was cast long before the world was standardized, but judging from the fact that it has not decayed or rusted for so many years, it is obviously not ordinary.
There is also the long sword in its hand. Hundreds and thousands of years have passed, and the guard at the hilt has completely turned into fly ash. However, the edge of the long sword still looks sharp, reflecting under the white light of the spiritual light ball.
With Yuyu cold light.
The swarm of insects that walked out from behind Xue Hua pounced directly on the knight without Xue Hua's orders. The exterminators activated their charge skills, and more than thirty exterminators lined up in a horizontal line and crashed into the knight.
The knight was not frightened by the mighty charge of the exterminators. It just slowly arched its legs, held the hilt of the long sword with both hands, and concentrated all its efforts together.
In the face of the charge of the insect swarm, Xue Hua, the only opponent who can do such a thing, has only seen it so far.
When the Exterminator's charge was about to hit it, suddenly, a lightning-like silver-white sword light flashed past between the Exterminator's charging ranks. The next moment, the dozens of Exterminator charging at the front unexpectedly
Just like this, it was cut into two pieces by this sword light, and the first wave of the insect swarm's offensive collapsed.
Seeing this scene, Xue Hua narrowed his eyes, but his heart was filled with turmoil.
Knight Bendjeton was born before the world was regularized. Logically speaking, he is not a professional. Even if he is strong, he should only be strong for ordinary people. Xue Hua originally thought that more than ten exterminators would be enough to defeat it, and it was more than enough. As a result,
I didn't expect such a big surprise to happen.
The sword strike Ben Jeddon just made was not a skill of a Paladin professional. It looked more like some kind of... swordsmanship?
Could this be the direction in which the world was supposed to evolve before it was regularized?
Swordsmanship, magic, divine arts...
Ha! It’s getting more and more interesting!
Xue Hua watched more swarms of insects swarming towards Bendjeton's direction, with an interesting smile on his face.
The knight's swordsmanship is very exquisite and sharp. The flying sword light once made it difficult for the insect swarm to advance. However, when long-range powerful firepower units such as Hydralisks and Spear Hunters also joined the battle, it could no longer support it.
Already.
The insect mothers screamed and issued an attack command, and the large swarm of springtails finally knocked it down and drowned it. The ferocious insect swarm roughly tore open the knight's armor and tore its body into pieces on the ground.
"Okay, that's enough, let's go." Seeing that the knight had completely lost his ability to resist, Xue Hua shook his head, turned around and walked into the rear passage first.
Bendjeton's strength is indeed very strong. In terms of attack power, even a paladin of level 80 or above would be defeated.
But the problem is that without the assistance of the professional system, this knight with superb swordsmanship is inherently deficient in other aspects.
It does not have the offensive and defensive aura of a paladin, so its ability in protracted battles and group battles is not as good as that of a level 50 paladin. Even in terms of battlefield auxiliary capabilities, a level 10 paladin can outsmart him.
Go down the street.
Therefore, which of these two paths is better or worse remains to be verified.
Xue Hua was thinking as he continued to walk forward. The next room in front of him was a downward passage. The royal tomb was multi-layered. According to Xue Hua's knowledge, Leoric's tomb should be in
In the king's tomb at the bottom.
He took two steps down the stairs, and a burst of cold air suddenly hit him. This cold air was mixed with the resentment of the dead. It was obvious that the place below was by no means a peaceful place.
"Master, please let the insect swarm find the way for you!"
An insect mother walked up to him and whispered respectfully.
"Hmm." Xue Hua thought for a while and felt that it would be better to keep a low profile in a place like this. After all, there is a super monster above the legendary level below. In the past, the worms often used the burrowing tactic of going straight into the middle palace.
It's best not to use it here.
So he nodded, moved half of his body, and watched more than a dozen springtails pouring into the passage.
After a while, the alarm sound of the insect swarm encountering an enemy came from the main hive mind. The springtails encountered the enemy, and judging from their status, the opponent's combat effectiveness was not low.
Xue Hua pursed his lips and waved the staff with his right hand gently into the passage. The illuminated white spiritual light ball flew downwards from the tip of the staff.
With the help of the light from the ball of light, Xue Hua quickly saw clearly the opponents who were fighting against the springtails. They were a group of skeletons dressed in shabby iron armor, with tattered red cloth cloaks trailing behind them.
These skeletons were holding huge beheading steel axes in their hands, and there was no trace of the undead's sluggishness and stiffness in their swings. They fought together with the springtails, and the two sides fought inextricably.
