Unlike the previous two floors, the location where Gu Mian was teleported to this time was quiet and there wasn't a single monster around.
Realizing she was safe, Gu Mian immediately told the group chat that killing the big boss would drop extra rewards, and then asked Xu Kun and the others about their location.
But after waiting for a long time, no one replied.
Could he still be being hunted down?
Gu Mian was a little worried. Based on the pattern of the first two levels, the skeletons on the third level should be at least level five.
If there are only a few, it's manageable; if they can't win, they can run away. But if there are too many...
...
In the dimly lit passage, Gu Mian hurried through it, her heart growing colder with each search.
Why can't I see any skeletons anywhere?
Could it be that they lured away all the skeletons on the third floor?!
Ten minutes later.
Gu Mian finally found Xu Kun and the others, who were locked in a fierce battle, near the center of the underground palace. They were back to back, surrounded by a group of skeleton soldiers wearing heavy armor and wielding steel swords.
These skeleton soldiers brandished their steel swords and launched continuous attacks.
While taking drugs, Xu Kun cursed and defended, "Damn it! How come there are more and more skeletons? Is this an entire floor full of skeletons?!"
"Brother, stop cursing me, save your energy." Gu Xiaobei flicked his right hand, and the meteor hammer flew out, hitting the head of one of the skulls.
[Health Points - 3000]
"Why isn't my sister coming up yet? If she doesn't come soon, I'm going to be worn down by these skeletons."
Qin Huaizhou, weapon in hand, followed up with another attack: "With so many Tier 5 skeletons here, what can she do even if she comes? She'll probably just trap one more person here..."
Gu Xiaobei turned her head to look at him and smiled mysteriously: "You don't understand."
Qin Huaizhou: "..."
Gu Mian: "..."
She didn't understand either, only that this person seemed to be imagining something extraordinary again.
Despite her complaints, Gu Mian quickly took out the Sage's Cloak and the Spring Staff from her backpack and used healing spells to restore their health.
There were too many skeletons, so some of them needed to be cleared out first. Therefore, she did not plan to join the battle for the time being, but stayed behind to heal Xu Kun and the others.
As soon as Gu Mian cast her healing spell, Xu Kun and the others immediately noticed it. After all, what else could instantly restore someone's health to full without Gu Mian's healing spell?
Instead of searching for Gu Mian hiding somewhere to cast healing spells on them, they immediately seized the opportunity to launch a counterattack!
With someone backing them up, how could they possibly continue to be beaten up like cowards?
The Staff of Spring can restore 100 health points to two targets at once, but there are a total of four people surrounded by skeletons, so the other two can only miserably use potions on their own.
Fortunately, Gu Mian always took turns treating patients; otherwise, their limited stockpile of medicine would have been completely insufficient.
The heavily armored skeletons charged forward relentlessly, their health bars constantly being depleted, turning them back into bones.
Xu Kun and the others who were being supported appeared extremely brave and fearless!
This seemingly tense and exciting battle lasted for a full half hour before the number of skeletons was reduced to less than ten.
"I only need three more kills to complete the mission!" Qin Huaizhou shouted excitedly.
"What are you yelling about!" Gu Xiaobei was startled by Qin Huaizhou's sudden loud voice: "Three short is three, what's there to get so worked up about!"
"Hehe." Qin Huaizhou chuckled sheepishly, "I just didn't expect that I would actually be able to complete the mission alive. I thought I was going to die under the siege of these skeletons."
Gu Xiaobei: "Didn't I tell you? Once my sister arrives, these skeletons will be nothing to us. Do you believe me now?"
Qin Huaizhou nodded vigorously: "I believe you! I believe you! From now on, I'll be Sister Gu's number one little brother!"
"What do you mean?" Gu Xiaobei glared at him, displeased. "You actually want to take my position as your number one underling?"
Gu Mian: "..."
I just can't listen to this anymore!
She suddenly raised her voice, interrupting their conversation: "Leave those skeletons to me, I haven't finished my kill quest yet."
"Well!"
Gu Xiaobei abruptly withdrew the meteor hammer he was about to smash into the skeleton soldier, and in the process, shoved Qin Huaizhou aside: "Didn't you hear what my sister said? You still want to steal someone's kill? With your strength, going up to the fourth floor by yourself is just sending yourself to get killed!"
Qin Huaizhou was stunned and knocked to the side. It took him a couple of seconds to realize what had happened: "Damn! I forgot about that! It's all thanks to you for reminding me, otherwise I would really be going to the fourth floor to die trying to complete the mission!"
...
While Gu Xiaobei and Qin Huaizhou were vying to be the number one underling, Xu Kun and Jiang Bai had already reduced the remaining skeleton soldiers to near-death.
"Hey sis! Come quick, you've got these skeletons down to low health. Just a few more hits and they're done for."
Jiang Bai, who was just about to invite Gu Mian over, could only grit his teeth in frustration upon seeing this.
hateful!
Why is he always one step behind Kunzai!
