Chapter 461: Ambush
Ariel stared at the life box in a daze.
No way, a lich would give me the phylactery to keep? "Master Ultraman, this is the phylactery!"
The lich's phylactery is more important than the soul. It is not just a rebirth. The phylactery has a strong connection with the soul. If you encounter those knowledgeable necromancers, you can control the lich by mastering the lich's phylactery.
Although Ariel does not have this ability, this life box is also an extremely precious thing. How could the lich be willing to take it out?
Does he believe in himself so much?
At this moment, Ariel was filled with shock.
"No, no, no, Master Ultraman, you should take back the Life Box."
Ariel just felt that this thing was too hot to hold in her hands. What if she accidentally dropped it? Would the lich die on the spot?
"Princess, please accept it. You just protected me at all costs, and I have to repay your trust. As for my proposal just now, it is actually a simple probability problem.
"This is a safe zone now. You hold my phylactery and let me take risks. If I guess wrong, I can still be reborn in the phylactery. But if I stay here and let you take risks, what if I guess wrong? Do you have a phylactery to be reborn?"
This was the truth, and Ariel couldn't refute it. In the end, she could only let Amber take the risk on his own.
Amberxiu turned and headed deeper into the maze. In order to save some money, he also replaced his underwater mecha with the cheapest bone body, so that even if it was really attacked and destroyed, it would not be a loss.
After adding the mage shield, Amberxiu swam forward quickly.
Bypassing those complicated underwater passages, Amber soon arrived at the location where the undead had been attacked before. Amber was fully focused, waiting for the attack to appear in the darkness.
Whether it was tentacles, a big mouth full of sharp teeth, or something even stranger, as long as any sea monster attacked him, Amber would retreat decisively.
Just prove that it was Ariel they were afraid of.
But to Amberxiu's surprise, there was no movement after waiting for a long time. Even though Amberxiu continued to move deeper, the shadows in the darkness just kept retreating, as if Amberxiu had some virus in his body.
"Interesting, are they afraid of the undead... No, they ate all the small fish just now, one by one, crunchy. If they are not afraid of the undead, then what are they afraid of?"
Amber was confused. He was just a pile of bones. After the dark magic was absorbed, he was just an ordinary thing. What was there to be afraid of these huge sea beasts? Just as Amber was thinking about this question, he suddenly remembered something.
"Oh no! If the sea beast is afraid of me, then Ariel will be in danger!"
Nothing must happen to this princess! Amber turned around and swam towards Ariel.
But when he turned around, Amber found that he couldn't find the way back.
"The terrain has changed? Are these seabed rocks movable?"
Amber remembered that there should be a fork road behind him that meandered to the right, so how did it become a straight road? "No, it's not that the terrain has changed, something is confusing my perception!"
Amber felt something was wrong as the light on the bracelet went out again, which meant that Talos's will had arrived and was staring at him.
Talos cast his gaze at him at this time?
But the Lord of Storms did not speak to him, which meant that he knew a good show was going on and he was just a spectator.
"My perception is confused, my memory is confused..." Amberxiu shouted to the endless darkness: "Bribodup, a goddess needs to plot against a mortal like this, you are too shameless."
Sure enough, there was a response in the darkness. It was a sharp and piercing sound that seemed to tear apart the sea water and pierce into Amber's soul.
"You are a fool who doesn't know how to live or die. You blasphemed the goddess of our Kou Tao fishmen! You will die howling today!"
Dozens of red lights lit up, and a bunch of spells flew towards Amberxiu.
It turned out that the Kuo-Tao fishmen were ambushing here, but how did they know that I would appear here? Amber threw the dice of fate, turning those frantic spells into various buff effects, while thinking seriously about this key question.
It is absolutely impossible for the Kuo Tao Murloc Goddess to track him silently. After all, she is a powerful figure of legendary rank. Lich, prophecy mage, and ranger, these three professions are very perceptive, and it is impossible for them to be targeted by the Kuo Tao Murloc without knowing it.
The only explanation is that Talos is causing trouble.
The Lord of the Storm may have felt that the one-sided situation was boring, so he shared his position with Bribodup, hoping to see some exciting plots.
Feeling the enhancement magic falling on him, Amber raised his right hand and said to Talos: "Great Lord of Storms, is this a test from you?"
Lightning flashed in his palm, and Talos' voice came: "You, a lich, are a little too smart. Yes, I told Bribodup to ambush you here. But don't worry, as the saying goes, every test must have a reward. Try your best to survive, little skeleton."
Talos's voice disappeared, but Amber's bracelet did not light up, which meant that Talos was still staring at him.
Looking at the Kou Tao fishmen who were constantly approaching him, Amber shook his head helplessly.
When those Kou Tao fishmen warriors rushed towards him, Amber turned his body and his skeleton turned into a silver-white mecha.
This is a Deep Diver mecha, specially designed for deep-sea combat.
Amberxiu pulled out the magic-destroying blade with both hands and took the initiative to meet the group of Kou Tao fishmen.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to cast magic, but the Golden Throne consumes too much power and Amber doesn’t want to use it easily.
Without the krypton gold spellcasting effect, Amber's spells would be greatly reduced in the sea. In addition, there were strange fluctuations around him that continued to interfere with his perception, so it was more appropriate to choose to fight as a ranger.
The Deep Diver has a speed that exceeds that of the Kuo-Toa, the Mithril Mecha has a strong enough defense, and the Demon-Breaking Blade allows Amber to easily cut open the bodies of these Kuo-Toa.
In terms of speed, defense, and attack, all three were superior to those of the Kuo Tao fishmen, so Amberxiu was completely unrivaled in mowing down the enemies. Wherever he went, there was blood. The Kuo Tao fishmen warriors didn't even have time to inflict even a single wound on Amberxiu before their bodies had already been cut open.
However, just as Amber was happily reaping the lives of the Kou Tao fishmen, his mecha suddenly shook and his arm hit the solid rocks on the seabed.
"No, why is there a wall here?"
Amberxiu was clearly aiming to chop off the Kou Tao fishman's head, but it suddenly turned into a wall.
His perception was disturbed again, and this time it directly affected his combat judgment.
In such a short gap, several Kuo Tao fishmen warriors had already pounced on Amber Xiu, desperately grabbing the mecha's hands and feet. They even frantically put their palms into the mecha's jet thrusters, trying to completely block Amber Xiu's power.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Amberxiu was unable to move for a moment, as he saw more and more Kou Tao fishmen rushing towards him, trying to overwhelm him with human wave tactics.
Once the mobility is lost, no matter how tough the mecha is, it will be torn apart piece by piece.
At this moment, a space door opened next to Amber Xiu, and then a huge shark rushed out from it.
The bloody mouth bit the bodies of the two Kou Tao fishmen into pieces in one bite, freeing Amber's right arm.
Amberxiu killed the other Kou Tao fishmen hanging on his body, and then rode on the shark's back.
A ranger will never fight alone, and can only be at his strongest when working with a beast companion.
Naomi's transformation into a giant shark allowed Ambershu's combat power to reach a new level, and he soon became invincible again.
Although it seemed that Amberxiu had the advantage on the scene, with the momentum of surrounding the entire enemy army by himself, Amberxiu was very clear that he was in big trouble.
There must be a Kou Tao fishman hiding in the dark, interfering with his perception again and again.
The first two times were just luck, but if it happened a few more times, Amberxiu might really be killed by these Kou Tao fishmen.
Therefore, either find the Kou Tao fishman hiding in the dark, or leave this sea area as soon as possible.
While thinking about how to respond, Amber suddenly felt that the giant shark transformed by Naomi was accelerating wildly and crashing into a rock formation.
Naomi's resistance to mental influence was not as strong as his, and she was immediately affected.
Fortunately, Amber immediately used telepathy to order Naomi to stop, so even though Naomi felt that a fishman was biting her tail madly, she still endured the pain and stopped.
As soon as I stopped, the pain disappeared.
Naomi responded nervously, "Master! I seem to have been under an illusion just now!"
"Yes, there is a very powerful illusionist hiding in the dark. Unfortunately, I didn't bring many undead troops with me this time."
The undead that Amberxiu had created recently were all sent out for trade. There weren't many undead troops left around him, so there was no point in throwing out the remaining ones.
"I'll cast Storm of Revenge later, and then we can take the opportunity to leave here!"
A free nine-ring spell once a day, it would be a loss if you don't use it. That illusionist is hiding, right? The storm of revenge is enough to cover the entire battlefield, it all depends on his luck.
But just as Amber raised his right hand and prepared to cast the nine-ring spell given to him by Talos, a bolt of lightning suddenly exploded on the seabed.
The violent magic power seemed to have life, jumping back and forth among the Kou Tao fishmen.
"Chain lightning? Cast it in the sea and it can jump more than a dozen times?"
Amber was shocked. Although this spell can cover a larger area when used in water, the sea water will affect the propagation direction of these lightning. Normal chain lightning can only jump three enemies. It is good to jump accurately once in the sea. But now, Amber saw that seventeen Kou Tao fishmen were hit by lightning and were cooked in an instant.
In the darkness, Ariel appeared with electric lights wrapped around her body.
At this moment, she was like a god descending from heaven. Her fiery red hair had turned silver-white, and even her eyes were covered with thunder.
