Quack, quack, quack...
Squeak!
The iron door of the ancient tomb that had been covered with dust for thousands of years was slowly pushed open from the outside, and the rusty door shaft stirred up large swaths of dust. Apex 23S.
Fastest update
Amidst the haze and dust, the vanguard exterminators of the insect swarm swarmed in under the order of the insect mother, and rushed into the dark space inside the door without fear.
After the insects entered, Xue Hua slowly walked in behind them.
He held Leoric's crown in his left hand, and held tightly the golden sword of the Kingslayer in his right hand.
"Skeleton King! At your invitation, I'm here to take your life!"
Whirring whirring!
Bursts of wind sounded in the dark space, and the lights on the surrounding stone walls and ceiling were suddenly lit.
In the bright firelight, the entire hall was displayed in front of Xue Hua.
This is a majestic and magnificent huge hall, with the walls around the hall dotted with gems of various colors like stars.
On the top of the hall, several pure gold chandeliers emit bright golden light, which is almost dazzling to the eyes of visitors.
In the southeast corner of the main hall, there is a pile of gold and silver jewelry piled up like a hill. Various armored weapons that have lasted for thousands of years are thrown on the mountain of gold like garbage.
However, none of this attracted Xue Hua's attention.
His eyes were looking directly at the other end of the hall at the moment.
There was a huge throne made of white stone. Next to the throne, there was an armor shelf made entirely of colored glaze. Hanging on the shelf was a dark gold armor with a green halo.
Xue Hua recognized this armor at a glance. It was the true form of the armor "Tageo's Scale" in the "Tagao's Incarnation" set series!
On the scroll in Xue Hua's hand, the location of the Scale of Targ'or is indeed marked in Tristram.
However, the scroll did not indicate the specific location of the armor.
Originally, Xue Hua was planning to search for it in Tristram City after solving the Skeleton King's troubles. Unexpectedly, this armor actually became Skeleton King's collection.
Xue Hua squinted at the dark golden armor, then turned his head and focused his eyes on the figure on the throne.
In fact, it is somewhat inaccurate to say that it is a "human figure", because it is just a skeleton wearing a huge and bloated luxurious armor!
"Skeleton King!" Xue Hua slowly narrowed his eyes, and unconsciously tightened his grip on the long sword in his right hand.
"You... got through all the obstacles I set up, and finally came to me... It seems that you are very determined to die!"
Hearing his voice, the Skeleton King slowly stood up from his throne. The armor on his body seemed to be making a whining sound because it had not been moved for a long time.
The Skeleton King grabbed his weapon, the huge multi-edge warhammer, from the shelf beside him, and stepped down from the high platform of the throne.
Click, click, click!
The sound of metal boots on the floor was heavy and slow, just like the sound of the gravekeeper ringing the death knell in the King's Harbor Cemetery at midnight.
"I'm not here to argue with you, Leoric!
The sins you have committed and the oaths you have broken are enough to illustrate your irredeemable evil!"
Xue Hua held the crown and sword tightly, trying not to show nervousness in front of his opponent.
However, in fact, it is impossible not to be nervous. The opponent in front of him is the first truly super powerful legend that he has ever faced!
"I appreciate your courage, so I'll give you another chance.
Swear allegiance to me! Return your soul to the realm of the dead! How about I give you a chance to continue to exist in this world?"
The Skeleton King put the warhammer on his shoulders, his tone was relaxed and disdainful, and he didn't care at all about Xue Hua's rebuke.
"Loyal to you?" Xue Hua had a dumbfounded expression on his face.
"Then what? Die?"
He shook his head.
"Stop dreaming! You bastard!
Your only value is to be torn apart by me and used to make soup!
Insect mothers! Kill it!!"
"Follow your orders!" The insect mothers screamed loudly, driving the insect swarm to attack Leoric.
Since this opponent was unusually powerful, the insect swarm used their strongest tactics as soon as they came up.
Violent feeding, resistance parasites, symbiotic parasites, bacterial fog, acid spores, nano insect swarm shields, hatching mutants, etc., all imaginable methods were used, and the front row launched the charge.
The exterminators' carapace was shiny and their fighting spirit was extremely high.
However, facing the tide of insects rushing towards him like a roaring tsunami, the Skeleton King just let out a roar that shook the sky with disdain.
"The ants who don't know whether to live or die!"
boom!!
The Skeleton King's huge multi-edged war hammer swept across the insect swarm's formation, and a large area of insect swarm units was instantly crushed into a bloody mess all over the sky.
But one of the important reasons why the insect swarm is so powerful is that they never know what fear is.
Unless Xue Hua, as the master, shouts to stop, even if the person standing in front of them is a Xel'Naga, they will pounce on them without hesitation.
The gap cleared by the Skeleton King was refilled by the swarm of insects behind him in less than half a second. They were not afraid of death and had no fear, and rushed towards Leoric one after another.
"Death...Code!"
The madness of the insect swarm finally gave the Skeleton King some seriousness. He raised his war hammer high and shouted loudly, and a gray halo of light suddenly spread around him.
All insect swarm units that entered the coverage area of the aperture suddenly slowed down, and then the entire body began to age rapidly. The carapace fell off, the skin and flesh shrank, and the bones became fragile and vulnerable.
Soon, the vitality in their bodies was no longer enough to support them to move forward, and large numbers of insect swarms fell to the ground without any warning, and quickly turned into nothingness.
However, when the Skeleton King saw that all the Zerg units did not leave any corpses after their death, it couldn't help but let out a surprised "Eh".
Its original "Death Code" is a powerful ability that can kill lives and turn their bones for its own use. The transformed bones will retain 100% of all the fighting power and habits of the previous body, but the allegiance has been changed to it.
That's all.
It had just seen with its own eyes the ferocious and extremely loyal side of the insect swarm, so it hoped to transform these creatures into its own undead army.
However, the insect swarm has long ago developed a set of special genetic locks on how to prevent the corpses of its soldiers from being controlled or studied by the enemy during the long evolutionary road. After the death of the insect swarm units, most of the insect swarm units will directly explode into plasma all over the ground.
Or it can be completely decomposed naturally within a few seconds. Only a small part of the insect swarm units will leave remains, but these remains can only be recycled into organic matter by the insect swarm's carpet for reuse.
Therefore, it will definitely not work for Skeleton King to play the "repay him with evil" tactics on the swarm of insects.
However, although it is impossible to control the corpses of Zerg units to fight for it, the original power of the Skeleton King is indeed too terrifying.
The insect swarm simply cannot rush within a hundred meters of it, otherwise it will be drained of life by its "code of death" and die.
Seeing the Skeleton King carrying his war hammer and walking towards him step by step as if he was in a deserted place under the siege of the insect swarm, Xue Hua couldn't help but rub his temples with a headache.
It's really a bit too powerful.
However, I am not a soft persimmon to be pinched...
