The level of the crawler is not high. Although it looks quite scary on the outside, it is easy to deal with once you know its weaknesses.
Zhuang Xue frowned as she looked at the body of the crawler. She didn't like this kind of undead monster unit. It made people feel disgusting and uncomfortable. However, the loot that should be recovered should still be taken away. This is the game world. Killing monsters will cause things to explode, even in the test field. Although the game rules in the test field are not perfect, the rules are still running.
"What's this?"
The material exploded by Zhuang Xue's Sword Qi Creeper didn't have any indication, but based on the magic fluctuations it emitted, it could be judged that it was a dark-type material.
Xilingchen could tell at a glance what this material was used for. It was a material that could create units that could harm spiritual bodies. It was not rare in the normal magical world.
"I don't know either. Let's take it back and study it." Xilingchen said.
"good."
Zhuang Xue put away the exploded materials, then condensed a long sword of ice and snow and walked in front: "Next time you encounter a monster, let me deal with it. I have more magic power than you. You are too impulsive. If it appears, Is it a monster you can’t deal with?”
Xilingchen knew that Zhuang Xue was worried, so he quickly nodded and agreed: "Okay, no problem, I will listen to you."
The two of them moved on.
Xilingchen quietly guided and determined the general direction to ensure that he could eventually reach the building that Xiaoling scanned.
In the process, I encountered many monsters, including some rare plants. The monsters were all undead and their levels were not high. Sometimes, Zhuang Xue could solve them without Xilingchen taking action.
After walking for almost an hour, the surrounding fog of the undead gradually dissipated, and the field of vision became clearer. However, the two of them did not leave the Forest of the Undead. The reason why the fog dissipated was a very huge castle. This castle was on a hill, several meters tall. A magic tower protects the castle. It is estimated that the castle can accommodate at least tens of thousands of people.
This is the building that Xiaoling scanned. It is very big. Xilingchen did not expect it to be a castle. He thought it was a ruin or something like that.
"A castle, brother, I want to go in and have a look, but it will be very dangerous..."
Before Zhuang Xue finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xilingchen: "I'm with you! Don't worry about me, I can take care of myself."
Hearing Xilingchen's words, Zhuang Xue said movedly: "Thank you."
The two of them have been separated from the large army. To be honest, they should wait for rescue, but the environment they were in before did not allow them to do so. Now that they have discovered a castle, they must not be idle. Magicians are all explorers. They were very interested in unknown things and found a high ground suitable for observation. The two of them took out their telescopes. They must conduct investigation in advance when entering such a strange place.
The castle looks abandoned for a long time. Some dark vine-type plants have covered the walls and buildings of the castle. The architectural style is different from any race in this plane. From a distance, it can be clearly seen that the castle is deserted. Very old and very old.
On the outskirts of the castle, one of the towering magic towers collapsed. In some nearby areas, there were obvious traces of artificial transformation. There was a road leading to the castle, but the road was full of white bones and dark plants.
In addition to these, there are naturally monsters, but they are not annihilation type monsters.
At the outermost periphery of the castle, there is a circle of skeleton monsters, about three thousand to two thousand five hundred meters away from the castle. These skeleton monsters are all standing still, and some are wandering. Except for these middle circles, they are covered by a large area. The plants on the surface, including some blood-red flowers, should be aggressive. The skeleton monster is far away from these flowers and is obviously afraid of them.
In the distance of one thousand meters to the castle, there are some high-level skeleton monsters with magical attributes, but they are very few. Judging from the light emitted from their bodies, these monsters are of high level.
The defenses are very tight, and getting into the castle is difficult, but not impossible.
"We need a plan!" Zhuang Xue said.
These are just ordinary monsters. They can be dealt with even by elite units. It just takes time. The two of them carefully investigated the layout of the monsters and finally formulated a plan. They would first attack from a distance to clear out some of the skeletons wandering around the periphery, and then enter the middle level. , bypassing the red flower area, and finally solving the magic type skeleton units and elite units.
They each checked their weapons and equipment, and then started after making sure there were no problems.
Using long-range burst shooting with a rifle, expert-level firearms allow Xilingchen to avoid deliberately hiding. Moreover, they are just ordinary monsters that are easy to deal with as long as they are shot accurately.
Although Zhuang Xue did not have expert-level firearms skills, he still had advanced skills. The two of them cleaned up together and spent more than half an hour clearing a safe road leading to the bloody flower area.
For safety reasons, before entering the bloody flower area, the two of them pointed and broke some, and only entered after making sure that there was no problem.
It went smoothly and nothing happened.
When you reach the area where elite monsters are located, you need to fight them. Elite-level units cannot be solved by long-range attacks. Xilingchen uses his rifle to fire bursts and attracts them one by one. Zhuang Xue fights in close combat. She is a snow girl. Ice magic is very powerful. Kill them. These elite-level units did not drop weapons, but they dropped a lot of materials, which can be taken back to make weapons.
All the materials exploded by the monsters were collected by Zhuang Xue. It was useless for Xilingchen to ask for them. After all, his team was still under construction and did not have a laboratory or research institute. When he returned, Zhuang Xue would give them to him. If your team's logistics research can be used to make weapons and equipment, then let the logistics make something useful for Xilingchen.
West.
It had been several hours since we arrived at the castle gate, and the sky had not changed at all during this process, as if time had been frozen in the evening forever.
The sky was gray and overcast, making the whole area very eerie.
As soon as he entered the castle gate, a skeleton covered in flames rushed out. The skeleton was holding a black spear. There was a purple gem inlaid on the top of the spear. The gem shone with magic light. This was a magic weapon!
Seeing the skeleton, Zhuang Xue's expression changed. She turned around and shouted: "Run!"
Level 60 magic unit!
The flaming skeleton that suddenly appeared was a lord-level unit. Zhuang Xue's reaction was already very fast, but the lord-level skeleton was even faster. There was no time for the two of them to prepare. It rushed over directly. Zhuang Xue saw that he couldn't run away. After falling, he turned around and rushed towards the lord. Xilingchen also stopped, raised his rifle and fired rapidly. In less than twenty seconds, one magazine was used up.
Such a fast attack consumes bullets, but is very effective.
The lord was suppressed, buying Zhuang Xue time.
The snow girl's ability exploded, and the blue Han energy swirled around Zhuang Xue, a battle between ice and fire.
"Sister, don't hit your head, hit the magic rune on your body!" Xilingchen quickly reminded the girl that this skeleton lord has a radiant rune on his body, and the rune is a rebirth rune. If the rune is not broken, To kill, you have to hit twice.
"OK!"
Zhuang Xue didn't think too much and attacked the magic runes first.
Skeletons are units refreshed by game rules, but the refresh also follows certain rules. For example, this castle must conform to the settings of the castle.
This rebirth rune is a form of rune technology. From this, it can be judged that the civilization that built this castle has rune technology. What Xiaoling scanned made Xilingchen even more surprised. This castle is at least 100,000 years old. Above, although most of the facilities in the castle are no longer usable, some things were still scanned by Xiao Ling.
Rune technology, dark energy technology, psychic technology, magic machinery, top undead magic civilization.
The entire castle is still functioning, with a collection of cutting-edge technologies, and the underground is extremely complex. This is not a lord's castle, but a refuge.
The reason why Xiao Ling judged it as a refuge was because of the structure of the entire area. The ground was reinforced layer by layer with an unknown number of runes. The castle outside was just a decoration, and the real area was underground.
The entire area is reinforced extremely hard. Even a small Star Destroyer Cannon may not be able to damage this area. It is so strong that besides a shelter, I really can't imagine what it is.
refuge?
What was it built to avoid?
A shelter of this level cannot be built just by construction. It requires a huge amount of resource support, and what puzzles Xilingchen the most is the time, one hundred thousand years!
According to the information from Little Loli, it can be determined that there used to be no undead civilization on this planet, and there was no overlapping space. However, now this test site seems to be completely different from the original design, and many of the information are seriously inconsistent.
There are too many doubts, and after entering here, Xiaoling had a guess. The reason why she cannot communicate with the outside world in the void may be because the time flow in this area is too slow, and the gap between the two spaces is too big. Void communication There is already technology in this area, but communication is still not possible, which shows that the time gap between the two dimensions is larger than imagined.
One hundred thousand years? Ten days here, only one day has passed outside?
While thinking about these issues while fighting, the bullets in his hands were consumed quickly. Although it was a bit wasteful, he successfully suppressed the skeleton lord, and Zhuang Xue also took advantage of the opportunity created by Xilingchen to knock off the resurrection rune on the skeleton.
After the runes were knocked out, the soul fire in the skull's head was attacked. The battle was quite fierce. Zhuang Xue was even injured in the process. Xilingchen exploded appropriately, so that the skeleton lord did not take advantage of Zhuang Xue's injury. He continued to attack at the right time, but the injury was not serious. Zhuang Xue endured the pain and finally eliminated the target.
After the lord died, Xilingchen put away his weapon and ran over. He opened the medical box and began to bandage Zhuang Xue's wounds.
Zhuang Xue's left arm and calf were burned by the flames emitted by the Skeleton Lord. The injuries were not very serious, but in this environment, every additional injury would reduce the hope of survival.
Looking at the handsome man in front of her, Zhuang Xue felt a sense of happiness. The more she got along with Xilingchen, the more she felt that she could not do without him.
After the wound was bandaged, Zhuang Xue smiled and said, "Thank you."
"It should!"
The two of them went to check what the lord had revealed at this time. This time they did not continue to reveal materials, but equipment. A red shirt with no attribute description. Zhuang Xue tried it with the ice sword and found that the defense was The force is quite high.
Xilingchen couldn't use women's equipment. The shirt was worn inside, so Xilingchen turned around and waited for Zhuang Xue to put it on before saying: "There are not many bullets left."
"There are many?"
"There are more than 300 rounds left in the shotgun, and only two magazines left in the rifle."
When he came out, Xilingchen was almost full of bullets. After fighting all the way, he had already consumed almost all of them. After all, his space storage equipment was only two cubic meters.
After hearing this, Zhuang Xue handed the pistol hanging on his waist to Xilingchen: "Use mine first, use it sparingly, mine are all magic bullets."
"good."
The two have different weapons and different types of bullets.
In addition to the clothes that exploded, there was also the weapon originally used by the lord. This was a magic weapon. Zhuang Xue picked it up and studied it.
After a moment, he handed it to Xilingchen: "I can't use the fire element."
"Um."
Zhuang Xue is a snow girl, a natural ice magician. The spear used by the lord is an amplified fire type. In her hands, it has almost no use except being sharp.
In fact, Xilingchen has already planned to fight in close combat. Although he has to hide his identity, he still has to expose his abilities if he has to. Of course, it is best not to expose them. Now that he has this long gun, the space he can operate is also larger.
The battle fluctuations caused by killing the Skeleton Lord spread throughout the castle, but no monsters came. Either there were no monsters anymore, or the monsters were restricted to a certain area and would not be triggered until they passed.
Xilingchen didn't have a mental scan, and Xiao Ling didn't give any hints. It would be boring if he knew everything.
The gate of the castle was made of magic wood and had long been damaged. Before the two of them walked in, Zhuang Xue sensed the target. She held an ice arrow in front of Xilingchen and said, "There is a monster inside."
Xilingchen had also discovered it. His eyesight was quite good. Although the interior of the castle was relatively dark, he still saw the target, which was a spider.
A standard feature of abandoned castles, spider-type monsters.
He took out the shotgun from the space equipment and shot it directly. After this shot, he also used a lightning magic. Xilingchen also has magic talent. It is normal to use some attack magic. Of course, This ability cannot be used frequently, because it is an auxiliary system, and the setting does not have good magic control. It is okay to use it occasionally. If you use magic all the time, you will definitely be suspected.
Zhuang Xue also took action directly, condensed the ice bow, and then shot out an arrow.
The spider inside the castle was knocked to the ground before it could rush out. The two men's attacks did not stop and continued. However, Xilingchen did not continue the long-range attack. He was on guard with a shotgun.
There are not many bullets left, so save what you can. We haven't entered the underground part yet. If you use bullets here to enter the underground, you will really have to fight in close combat. .
The spider is over one meter tall and is around level 40.
However, there was not just one spider, but a large group. After the first spider was eliminated, other spiders inside the castle also took action, and all crawled out towards the door.
