Chapter 2537 The Disliked Treasure

The tauren warriors took the opportunity to swarm up, cut off the retreat of the rust monsters, and drove down all the rust monsters wandering around the pit. Each of them stood by the pit with their weapons in hand. When they saw a rust monster trying to climb up, they held up their spears and flails , With his head covered and his face covered, he was beaten violently, either pressed back into the pit, or directly beaten to death.

The fierce battle was going on, and Valak received an alarm from the spider servant, and learned that another group of rust monsters had left the lair and were approaching the cave along the tunnel.

Valak whistled, waved his eye stalks and gestured, and ordered the spider servants to spin webs in the tunnel as quickly as possible, and try to seal the entrance of the tunnel as much as possible.

The spider web was only half formed, and several rust monsters had already appeared at the entrance of the cave.

The "Giant-Eyed Knight" guarded the entrance of the cave alone, raising four eye stalks, and the "Scorching Ray", "Freezing Ray", "Force Field Ray" and "Evil Ray" blasted into the tunnel in turn.

The lethality of these four rays is 12 energy levels, and the rust monster can't escape death if it hits two shots at most.

After killing the rust monsters who were leading the way, Valak stopped to take a breath when he realized that the spider web had been woven.

Not long after, another large group of rust monsters rushed over, and they were entangled in spider webs just as they approached the entrance of the cave.

Valak sneered and raised his eye stalks, and shot at the panicked rust monsters on the spider web one by one, and the large group of mutant spiders under her control also surrounded them, frantically biting the prey caught in the web.

Destroy this wave of rust monsters, the entrance of the cave has been blocked by corpses.

Valak floated back to the pit, and found that the rust monsters in the pit had solidified in the asphalt, so he ordered the tauren to fill the pit with the sand removed from the pit, buried the half-dead rust monsters alive, and then set them on fire. Web at the mouth of the cave, instructing the tauren to remove the rust monster corpses blocking the tunnel.

After clearing the passage, Valak still sent spider servants to open the way ahead to confirm that there was no danger ahead, and then led the tauren into the tunnel to explore the rust monster's lair.

The monster lair on the opposite side of the tunnel is connected to the natural karst cave, and the space is wider than Valak expected. On the wet and smooth cave wall, there are exposed and protruding magic crystal veins like blue veins. As far as the eye can see, there are discarded magic crystal rough stones everywhere.

Valak was suspended in the cave, and the main eye and the six stalk eyes all showed surprise. It took a while to recover, and hurriedly took out the communication crystal to report the latest discovery to the owner.

"Congratulations, Master Mitra! We have discovered a new vein of magic crystals, and the reserves are not small by visual inspection!"

In fact, Joan had already seen the mineral veins Valak found in the rust monster's lair through the "remote viewing mirror", and felt a little funny while being delighted.

Regardless of the human world on the surface or the intelligent races underground, most of them regard magic crystals as precious resources, even as currency, and "Magic Eye Nest City" Udinos is no exception.

However, in the eyes of the rust monster, the tasteless magic crystal ore is worthless at all.

They worked hard to dig out the metal minerals in the rock formations, only gnawed the metal compounds, and left the associated magic crystal ore, treating them as garbage. Instead, Joan picked up a big deal. I should really thank these people. Rust monsters who know the goods!

From the habits of the rust monster, Joan couldn't help thinking of the speculation that was prevalent when the colonists first came to the New World, using glass beads and metal spoons and other worthless gadgets in exchange for gold, silver and gemstones from the natives.

The reason why such transactions became popular at one time was also because of the huge difference in the values ​​​​of the colonists and the aborigines, coupled with the information barriers caused by the distance across the ocean, thus forming a space for speculative arbitrage.

When Qiao An was thinking about it, a sudden exclamation came from the "remote viewing mirror", which immediately aroused her vigilance, quickly put aside distracting thoughts, and turned her gaze back to the mirror.

There are more than one secret tunnel hidden in the corner of the vault where Valak and the others are located. At this moment, a large group of rust monsters suddenly rushed out of the tunnel and surrounded the intruders.

"What are you panicking! Pick up your weapon and guard the exit!"

Valak reprimanded his subordinates to remain calm, and personally led the spider guards to intercept the rust monsters swarming up, cover the tauren's retreat at the entrance of the lair, and line up defense to avoid being cut off by the monsters.

The "Giant-Eyed Knight" was unruffled in the face of danger, commanded decisively, and quickly led his men to stabilize their position. The mutant spider guards fought against the rust monsters on the periphery. The tauren grabbed a large piece of ore on the spot and threw it with all their might, causing the rust monsters to bleed and scream.

Valak continued to send out "force field rays" to bombard the cave where the rust monsters spewed out, and after a minute, he finally succeeded in creating an artificial landslide, and a large amount of rubble blocked the cave.

The rust monsters who came later were either killed by the landslide rocks on the spot, or they were blocked in the depths of the cave and could not pass through.

Seeing Valak's performance in the magic mirror, Joan was very satisfied with this subordinate's ability to command in battle. He raised an eye stalk, and cast a psionic version of the "dimensionality reduction force field" through the mirror towards the area where the rust monsters gathered, and turned to In an instant, no less than twenty rust monsters were photographed into "slices of paper".

Valak noticed that the group of monsters on the opposite side suddenly compressed into a two-dimensional form close to the surface, which greatly reduced the pressure on his side. Guessing that the master personally helped him deal with the enemy, he quickly took out the communication crystal and thanked the master.

"Valak, you performed well today, but you have to be more careful." Joan reminded his subordinates telepathically, "The group of rust monsters that rushed out just now were mostly controlled by the charm spell, so it can be seen that this is not an accident, but more like A trap to lure the enemy into deep."

Valak couldn't help but change his face: "Master Mitra, you mean...in the depths of the mine, there are enemies more insidious than the Rust Monster, who are plotting us secretly?"

"That's for sure. Judging from the sneaky behavior of this 'behind the scenes', this person seems to be afraid that we will see his true colors." Joan guessed.

"With the master watching over him, the subordinates can rest assured."

Valak suspended the call, and ordered her subordinates to wipe out the rust monster in front of her as soon as possible—she had a premonition that there might be more difficult enemies coming.

As expected, before all the rust monsters in the cave were killed, there was a strange and low-pitched roar from the depths of the cave that had been collapsed by Valak before, and it quickly moved from far to near, as if it was cleaning up the fallen rocks and re-opening the cave. aisle.

Valak narrowed his main eyes, stared at the hole for a few seconds, and seemed to think of something, then issued a mental command, called out some spider servants, laid spider webs at the location she designated, and then sent out "phantom rays" himself, camouflaging the spider webs as smooth ground.

As soon as her arrangement here was completed, the gravel that blocked the entrance of the cave loosened and rolled, and collapsed suddenly, opening a passage again.
