Chapter 491 Death of the High Priest
As soon as Li Yuanhong stepped out of the stone door, he was blocked by a long knife coming towards him. Li Yuanhong raised his Shen Yue Dao to block the opponent's blade, but the opponent's strength shocked Li Yuanhong's body.
"What a great strength!" Li Yuanhong sighed secretly.
However, Li Yuanhong was not afraid of the opponent, and continued to keep up with the sword, but this time Li Yuanhong used the master's peak sword technique. That kind of sword technique is not like the ancient Egyptian sword technique that uses strength and sword energy, but the sword energy. a kind of control.
Sword Qi is the threshold to enter master-level martial arts, and mastering sword Qi is the key to transcending master-level martial arts.
By forming Qi, the invisible Qi can be transformed into something tangible. With the slashing of the weapon, the sword Qi comes out. And the control of the sword Qi can not only transform the Qi into shape, but also control every use of Qi. The Qi can be greatly Even though it is small, it can also change into other shapes, and even reach its peak. It can discard the sword and not use it. It can still condense Qi into a sword, or even use Qi as a weapon to kill people thousands of meters away without being seen.
Therefore, in the ancient times, the destructive power of saint-level warriors was no worse than that of saint-level mages, and even the single-person combat power was greater than that of saint-level warriors. Warriors were stronger than mages, but mages were better at using the power of nature to allow themselves to fight for longer, attack distance and range bigger.
At this time, the martial arts skills used by Li Yuanhong were slightly exposed to the control of Qi. Therefore, after the opponent fought with the sword Qi once, Li Yuanhong immediately changed his strategy and started a little Arrancar.
Li Yuanhong condensed his sword energy into a point every time, which caused the opponent's sword energy to be broken by one point, and the entire sword energy became chaotic. From the moment he was injured by the rebound of his own sword energy, with two tight moves, the opponent's long sword became Got rid of it.
Just when Li Yuanhong was about to kill the mummy with a knife, the mummy guard next to him rushed over. If Li Yuanhong didn't give up killing this mummy, he might be killed by the other party.
"Hourglass time!" Li Yuanhong muttered to himself, the hourglass time started, and now the hourglass time has evolved again and can last for five seconds.
Although five seconds is short, for Li Yuanhong, it is enough.
Li Yuanhong swung his knife to chop off the head of the mummy in front of him, which took a second. Teleport to the mummy next to you and chop off the mummy's head with a knife. It takes two seconds. Reflex and kill the mummy behind him in one second. He charged forward and pierced the head of the mummy opposite him, which took one second. At this point, the four mummies that rushed up first were all dead.
The next step is easy. Although there are many mummy warriors in the hall, at least a dozen of them, most of these mummies are scattered in various corners of the hall. Therefore, when the high priest shouts for these mummies to save them, these mummies are far away from each other. , there was no cooperation at all, and these mummies did not cooperate. They only knew that each of them raised their weapons and came towards Li Yuanhong.
Li Yuanhong took advantage of this opportunity to defeat them one by one. First, Li Yuanhong took out his golden bow, quickly shot an arrow, and killed the nearest mummies. Then he killed the mummy in the distance near the door.
Li Yuanhong's strategy is very simple. He cannot face more than three mummies at the same time. Once there are more than three, he will not be able to get rid of the opponent in a short time, and he may face more mummies.
In addition, I was chasing the sacrifice and had no time to tangle with these mummies. I had done a lot of tricks on the way here. The traps that followed were my helpers. There was no need for me to work hard and fight with these mindless people. mummification takes time.
So after Li Yuanhong killed several mummies, he immediately rushed to the door where the high priest left. At this time, the high priest's figure had disappeared into the darkness of the passage.
Li Yuanhong knew that the high priest had the key to control the pyramid, so Li Yuanhong must not let him go.
Just as he arrived at the door, two more mummies appeared blocking the way. Li Yuanhong was anxious at this time and had no time to fight with these mummies, so he knocked the long knife away with his knife, then accelerated and passed between the two mummies. In the past, the two mummies were about to raise their swords to attack for the second time, but unexpectedly, Li Yuanhong disappeared in front of them.
Li Yuanhong did not fight with the mummy, but hurriedly chased it in the direction in which the high priest escaped.
At this time, the high priest was very anxious. Although there were mummy warriors blocking the assassin, the high priest was not naive enough to think that those mummies could stop Li Yuanhong.
Before leaving the palace, the high priest accidentally met an assassin of the pharaoh. The assassin also fought against the high priest. However, the high priest had not openly defected at that time, so the assassin was the least popular among the pharaoh's men. Moreover, they met by chance, exchanged words with each other, and did not kill him.
But that exchange gave the high priest a deep impression, that is, although he is very powerful, he should not encounter assassins at close range, otherwise he will not have the ability to fight back.
The assassin who appeared today gave the high priest the feeling that he was more powerful than the assassin he met earlier, so the high priest immediately chose to escape.
He can only run to the exit, completely seal the passage here, and then return to his previous hiding place. Only then will he feel safe, and once the exit here is sealed, the assassin will undoubtedly He was trapped and died here. When he came back in ten days and a half, the assassin might not die, but would probably collapse from hunger.
Although the high priest ran in a hurry, he was cautious all the way. In order to prevent outsiders from entering, there were countless traps in this passage. Even the high priest himself had to be careful. If he was not careful, he would be injured by the traps.
Fortunately, Li Yuanhong never showed up. At this time, there was only one corridor left from the exit. As long as he successfully passed the corridor, he could block the exit here at the exit and the place would be completely sealed.
However, this corridor is not simple. The entire corridor is a huge trap. This trap is not a sword, poisonous gas, or a pit, but the top of the corridor.
The top of this corridor is made up of several suspended boulders. Once the trap is triggered, the suspended boulders above the head will fall, smashing the people below into pieces. And the most vicious thing about this trap is that it is a group attack trap. The trap is set just before exiting the corridor. Once the trap is triggered, all the people following the person who triggered the trap will be killed.
This mechanism is set up to prevent enemy groups from attacking, so this is the first level to enter the control room, and it is also the most dangerous level.
Of course, the high priest knew all the links here, so naturally he would not step on the place where the mechanism was, but would jump over the trap.
However, just when the high priest's feet touched the ground, he felt the soles of his feet slip and his buttocks sat on the ground. Then he felt that his buttocks were separated by something, and then he heard a "stuck" sound behind him.
As this sound rang out, the high priest immediately felt that the pores all over his body were exploding, and his sixth sense alarm sounded loudly, as if some major danger was about to happen.
This made Li Yuanhong suddenly hear the "stuck" sound behind him.
"Did you touch the mechanism?"
As soon as this year appeared, the high priest felt that his whole body was suddenly paralyzed. However, no matter how stupid the high priest was, he did not dare to lie down here and quickly stood up to retreat into the passage.
However, everything was too late. Just as the high priest stood up, there was a "rumbling" sound above his head, and then a huge stone smashed down from above. The high priest didn't even grunt, and his whole body was smashed under the boulder.
Just when the boulder fell, Li Yuanhong also chased him near the corridor. If the high priest had not touched the mechanism himself, Li Yuanhong would definitely not have been able to catch up with the high priest before he ran out of the passage.
It's just that when Li Yuanhong entered the passage, he changed the mechanism. As long as someone steps over the mechanism, he will step on the second mechanism, and the second mechanism will activate the entire mechanism. This is a dual mechanism setting, and only the initial setting Only people from the agency and those who know the agency here will deliberately avoid that place.
Watching the boulder fall, Li Yuanhong was also stunned. This mechanism is too deceptive. It is estimated that even a zombie with infinite strength like a giant zombie would be smashed into a pulp by the boulder. What did the person who set up this mechanism think at the beginning? of?
Just when Li Yuanhong was speechless, the boulder slowly rose up and returned to its original position, as if it had never fallen. However, there was a pool of mud and smashed bones on the ground.
Li Yuanhong knew that there was something on this person, so he didn't care whether the meat was dirty or not. He took out a wooden stick from the space, picked up the sacrificial clothes, and started to rummage. Finally, Li Yuanhong found a map, a map of the pyramids. , and two smashed gem fragments.
As for other things, almost all of them were smashed into powder by boulders, and they were no longer worth collecting. Only the map and the gem fragments still had some value.
However, the map was very damp with blood, and many places could not be seen clearly. However, the control room on the edge of the map and the underground transfer room were marked, but how to get to the underground was unclear.
"It seems that we have to go to Cairo. There should be such a map there, otherwise there will be no results in wandering around here." Li Yuanhong thought to himself.
Li Yuanhong put away the map and looked at the two gem fragments: "
Fire Energy Stone Fragment (unrepairable)
The gem that stores the power of fire is said to be formed from the tears of the Sun God. "
"Fragment of Moon Tears Stone (unrepairable)
The gem that stores moonlight energy is said to be transformed from the tears of the moon god. "
Li Yuanhong looked at these two gems and was a little confused about what they were used for. However, seeing the priest offering sacrifices to these two gems on the altar, he thought that the functions of these two gems were definitely not simple.
