Hei Deng Xia Huo
Chapter 93 Absurd (4K)
The Dragon Breaking Slash advanced relentlessly, shattering the wall.
In front of the deep, blood-red beam of light, the solid stone that formed the wall silently disintegrated into dust.
The power of faith contained within the bricks of the wall could not stop or delay it in the slightest.
Dazzling light filled the entire space,
The dozen or so ordinary players in front felt a pain in their eyes.
Their thin eyelids could not block the intense light, like the scorching sun,
Bloody tears flowed involuntarily from the corners of their eyes,
Their eyeballs ached as if they were being roasted—this was even after Hohenheim had cast protective spells on everyone beforehand and deliberately controlled the direction of the Dragon Breaking Slash.
After the intense light, came a visible shockwave.
Dust on the ground was instantly blown away,
The stone table, originally firmly fixed to the floor, was lifted directly by the shockwave, crashed into the wall, and shattered into pieces along with the candles.
"Astral Barrier."
The Truth-Sider softly uttered, his voice hoarse, his robe billowing, releasing vast spiritual energy to form a thick, horizontal wall composed of astral matter.
Under the impact of the Dragon Breaking Slash's shockwave, water-like ripples appeared on the surface of the Astral Barrier, constantly emitting a grating screech,
Several times it looked as if it would collapse under the strain,
But in the end, it held.
The light weakened from strong to weak, gradually dissipating, and the shockwave, after destroying the remaining two walls around the stone chamber and opening up the room, gradually subsided.
The Dragon Breaking Slash was worthy of being the strongest offensive black magic,
After one strike,
The bricks of the ceiling were completely destroyed, revealing streaks of pale white light like steel bars,
Through the dim white light, the real mountain rock and the sky outside could be vaguely seen.
The Dragon Breaking Slash had shattered the disguise of the entire stone cave maze, dragging the maze back into the real world,
Some players with keen senses immediately felt the oppressive feeling of being sealed off from the surrounding space lessened significantly,
But there was little joy in their hearts.
The deep, gloomy aura from the front,
Not only was it not eliminated by the Dragon Breaking Slash, but it became more and more obvious as the walls were broken through.
Oppression, fear, horror.
It was like facing a top predator in the food chain with a mortal body.
Everyone present once again experienced the weakness and helplessness they had not felt in a long time since becoming transcendent.
Without hesitation, the players took out equipment and items from their inventory that they could not use before, doing their best to increase their combat power, and all eyes were focused on the "one"-shaped gap cleaved open by the Dragon Breaking Slash.
Finally, the light completely dissipated,
And the scene in the space ahead was exposed to everyone.
It was a room of the same size, the original stone ceiling, walls, and floor had all been destroyed by the Dragon Breaking Slash,
Exposing the essential white light.
In the midst of the countless rays of light, a withered corpse sat quietly.
It was not known how many years the corpse had been stored for,
Its hair had disappeared, and its skin was withered, yellow, and full of wrinkles.
Emaciated, nothing but skin and bones,
It sat cross-legged on the ground, hunched over, head hanging down, wearing a tattered piece of cloth similar to a kasaya (Buddhist monk's robe) on its body.
No matter how you looked at it, this corpse had been rotten for a very, very long time,
There was no sense of life or energy fluctuations,
It was just an ordinary mummy, which should be placed in a transparent vacuum罩 (zhào, cover) in a museum, with the label "BCE" attached.
The most normal thing was the most abnormal thing,
The unremarkable mummy sat cross-legged on the ground,
The light from the wall behind him was still twisted into a团 (tuán, ball) because of the Dragon Breaking Slash just now,
But it itself had not been damaged at all.
The reason for this may be due to the large number of light beams connected to the mummy's legs.
Chi—
Accompanied by a soft whistle in the air,
More white light beams fell from the ceiling and walls,
Automatically converging into hundreds or thousands of them, like intravenous infusion tubes, piercing into the mummy's arms and back.
Even Xing Hechou, who did not know much about the divine power system, realized what was happening at this moment—
The surrounding power of faith was being directly injected into the mummy's body in the form of white light beams.
"Everyone, attack together!"
Without any hesitation,
Wang Buluihang directly adjusted the Bi'an Armor to its maximum output mode and used the set of coordinated skills against the strange corpse once again.
[Delay], freezing space,
[Scattering Flowers], blocking vision,
[Energy Absorption], absorbing energy,
[Snake Eyes], peeking at weaknesses.
Having learned from Li Ang's previous lesson, Wang Buluihang did not rashly use his strongest binding skill, [Rouge Lotus]. Fortunately, among this group of players, there were many transcendents who had more and stronger output methods than him,
All Wang Buluihang had to do was tell others the weaknesses of the corpse.
"It hasn't woken up yet, cut off the divine power connection and interrupt its supply!"
Wang Buluihang shouted, turned his left hand, took out more than ten cards, and inserted them into the Bi'an Armor,
His right hand controlled the arm armor, firing at the front like a string of pearls.
The situation changed rapidly,
From the moment everyone felt the oppressive aura, to Hohenheim releasing the Dragon Breaking Slash, and then seeing the strange corpse,
It was only a few breaths,
Fortunately, the players present were all transcendents who had been walking on the edge of life and death for a long time and had extremely rich combat experience, and they immediately used all their means.
The pink-haired girl, Fuxiao (Dawn), summoned the Capuleth mecha, broke through the semi-solid room ceiling, and released a rain of rockets while piloting the mecha.
David stepped forward half a step, struck a standard spear-throwing pose, the contours of his muscles clearly visible under his close-fitting suit, and the spear of judgment in his hand turned into lightning and darted out.
Killing Intent turned her hands over, and ten daggers instantly appeared in her palms, and then disappeared in an instant.
Artillery fire, lightning, gunfire, curses, Gu techniques, magic...
All kinds of attack methods rushed towards the emaciated mummy like a landslide.
Several months had passed, and the strength of the first and second echelon players had made great progress,
Even Huangshi (Barren Lion) from the Lost World would not be able to calmly deal with this level of attack ocean.
However, the corpse sat calmly in place, without the slightest intention of moving,
And the strongest people present,
Out of Control, Truth-Sider, Hohenheim, Li Ang,
Stood still as if they had a tacit understanding.
Friends in need, unmoving as a mountain?
Before the rest of the players could feel any doubts, they heard a dull and distant sound, as if it came from the horizon.
Dong—
The sound vibrated the air, shook the ground,
And even the players' internal organs trembled slightly.
The loud noise, or rather the heartbeat of the mummy,
Was clearly transmitted to the ears of the players present, causing the faces of the players to turn pale involuntarily.
The heartbeat was heavy and loud,
The mummy's chest heaved slightly, and a visible shockwave rose from its body,
Pushing back most of the attack methods launched by the players, hitting the wall.
A few unavoidable attack methods, such as curses, incantations, etc.,
Only formed one or two imperceptible black lines on the surface of the mummy.
This corpse was like an extremely rare, highly mysterious, and precious transcendent material,
It could be exempt from most of the attack effects.
Whether it was physical or magical attacks, they would be severely weakened when they hit the mummy's skin.
Dong—
The mummy's chest heaved again,
Accompanied by the influx of a huge amount of faith power,
The corpse quickly expanded and filled up like an inflated ball.
The withered skin grew color, and the emaciated muscles gradually became plump,
Even the skeletal face vaguely returned to the "living person" standard, but it looked a bit severely malnourished.
Now is the time!
The four strongest transcendents present moved together,
The magic crystals hovering around Hohenheim automatically released defensive spells, surrounding him like an iron barrel, protecting him.
And he himself pressed the Sand Book that appeared out of thin air and chanted obscure and mysterious spells once again.
The short-haired youth, Out of Control, disappeared in place instantly, directly flashing behind the mummy,
And punched the back of the corpse's head.
The Truth-Sider flashed to the left side of the mummy, casually waved his hand, released the mental creation series of abilities, and created hundreds of tiny, model-toy-sized World War II cannons,
Mortars, infantry guns, anti-tank guns, howitzers, railway guns...
All available,
All suspended in the air,
And fired at the mummy.
Li Ang, wearing a dragon head and a white coat, took out a Colt revolver, turned on headshot mode, and pulled the trigger at the mummy's head.
The instant hit effect of the Colt was triggered, and the mummy's right eye was hit, bursting with bright light,
At the same time, Li Ang activated the Bullet Teleportation Technique, flashed in front of the mummy, and swung the Mind Monkey fiercely,
The Mind Monkey's cudgel, filled with a huge amount of swamp divine power and entangled with a large number of slender vines, swung heavily towards the mummy's neck.
Unlike Xing Hechou and others,
Li Ang and the other three vaguely understood the other party's current state the moment they saw the mummy.
This mummy was indeed King Shibi,
In his mummy form, his body was extremely tough, nearly as indestructible as the Shenlong (蜃龍, Sea Serpent) Red Mane outer garment, which was why it could resist the erosion of time and be preserved to this day.
At this moment, he was constantly absorbing the power of faith seeping in from the outside, trying to restore his emaciated corpse to a normal state and restore his ability to move.
And when the recovery progressed to a certain extent, when the corpse was about to heal but had not yet fully healed, and the defense was at its weakest stage, it was the best time to strike.
The four attacked together,
The back of the mummy's neck was first hit by Out of Control's fist, causing his head to swing forward, and the divine power connection pipes at the back were broken, destroying most of them.
Immediately afterwards, the mummy was hit by the artillery array summoned by the Truth-Sider using the mental creation series of abilities,
The entire body involuntarily tilted to the right.
Dong—
Before the shockwave of the third heartbeat could form, it was drawn back by Li Ang with the Mind Monkey's cudgel,
The corpse's chest, which had just swelled, instantly withered.
It's not over yet.
Hohenheim's chanting reached the end, and a black halo appeared in his hand, rotating rapidly like a gear,
Instantly ejected, circled the mummy,
While cutting off most of the divine power links,
He also cut into the corpse's chest, tearing a huge crack in the cassock and skin, revealing an amber-like, crystal-clear wound cross-section.
From the wound surface, one or two drops of golden liquid emitting a fragrant aroma dripped out.
"..."
Ignoring the wound on his chest, the mummy suddenly raised his head, his eyes full of white, staring straight at Li Ang,
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!
His two arms raised stiffly and slowly, grabbing towards Li Ang rapidly.
Li Ang frowned,
Immediately turned the Colt revolver towards Xing Hechou and the others, pulled the trigger, and used the Bullet Teleportation Technique,
Instantly flashed dozens of steps away, avoiding the claws.
After urgently forcing Li Ang back, the mummy turned around and grabbed towards the Truth-Sider,
The latter had been maintaining a floating state, the corners of his yellow robe waving, and he retreated rapidly to the rear, dodging the grab, and continued to control the artillery array to maintain the bombardment.
This King Shibi doesn't seem to be very smart.
A strange emotion rose in the minds of the four at the same time,
Just like what they felt just now,
King Shibi's body was indeed extremely tough, with great momentum and oppression. Even in an incomplete state of recovery, he could withstand a Dragon Breaking Slash and the four's strongest attack methods.
Even Huangshi (Barren Lion) or Michael could not do this.
But,
King Shibi's intelligence was far from being able to match his physical strength.
He was like a muddleheaded beast, only knowing how to fight with biological instincts,
Punching, clawing, biting, ramming.
With his physical strength, these attack methods were comparable to player skills, and any casual blow could smash spells and detonate shields,
Ordinary players would be injured if they touched it, and die if they bumped into it.
But, that was all.
Li Ang and the others cut off the divine power connection on King Shibi's body, sometimes approaching to attract, and sometimes fleeing to avoid,
The four controlled the distance to King Shibi with precision, like kiting in an online game,
In the not-so-spacious space, they slowly consumed and eroded King Shibi's energy,
They even had the energy to control and guide King Shibi not to rush towards other player camps, and to stay within a certain range.
Due to the interruption of the divine power connection,
The Shiku (石窟, stone cave) maze, which had already begun to weaken and degenerate, could not find a supply object,
The power of faith in the maze evaporated and rose, just being consumed in vain,
Soon, the countless stone rooms that made up the maze disappeared and annihilated, restoring the original Ajanta Caves.
Michael, who was waiting outside the cave, arrived late,
He held the Flame Sword, carried four wings on his back, and arrived in an instant,
But he only saw the flustered player team, the four of Li Ang with strange expressions, and the beast-like King Shibi mummy in the center.
"Roar! Roar!"
King Shibi was firmly trapped in place by the divine power vines created by Li Ang, the space imprisonment device of Hohenheim, and the space anchor of the Truth-Sider,
Roaring angrily like a frightened beast, emitting a burst of visible shockwaves, shattering the precious statues and murals in the Ajanta Caves,
But he could not escape the restraints.
"..."
Everyone stared at the furious King Shibi in place, and a strong sense of absurdity rose in their hearts,
This feeling was like playing a single-player game, overcoming difficulties, breaking through levels, and defeating bosses,
Finally arriving at the end,
They thought they would usher in an epic boss battle,
But they only saw a lazy monkey lying on a swing, eating a banana at the finish line,
And killed it with a casual, tentative, normal attack.
