Chapter 98 The Feeling of Being a King
Golka had no idea what was going on.
Why did the sword of lightning and fire, which he was so proud of and could instantly evaporate monsters, have no effect when it hit the shield of the tree guard?
Why can the shield absorb his lightning and fire and transform it into light bullets and bounce them back?
But he understood one thing—
run!!!
Run, but how to run?
Another tree guard had already blocked his way behind him, his horse raising its hooves and neighing. Although his head was completely covered by a helmet, his expression must have been full of provocation.
Even if he was not blocked, the speed of the Golden Return was too fast for the mercenary captain, who had exhausted most of his energy, to dodge.
Gelka stared at the tree guard and opened his mouth to say something.
"Fuck you——"
"boom!!!"
The place was filled with so much smoke and dust that the human eye could not see what was going on.
"Is it still too much?"
Simon glanced back at Gelka, his thin eyebrows furrowed, and he looked back at the battlefield.
The flying dragon Aqir was roaring, and the blazing dragon flames dyed the sky with a touch of heat. The Lothric Knights were strangling the guards under its wings, and their sophisticated armor had been dyed red.
The Thunder Wolf Dragon was also roaring. The impending thunder and lightning were terrifying, and the falling lightning indiscriminately killed all living things around it.
The undead army looked particularly ferocious under the illumination of lightning. Even though they were the weakest among them, their appearance was the most intimidating.
Monsters continuously emerged from the dungeon, and the entire ancient city was stained with the breath of bloodshed. Monsters that had appeared in the dungeon and those that had not appeared were now greeting the world in their own way.
This is the real demonic energy!
Even the distant city of Bed felt the fear, and the shouts of fighting and killing made the residents of the city think of something bad.
The mercenaries' resistance gradually became ineffective. Perhaps their resistance had been ineffective from the beginning. How could they resist the C-rank Black Knight and Silver Knight? Not to mention the slightly weaker Conquest Knights.
A Furnace Knight also stepped out of the portal. The adventurers who originally wanted to help did not dare to move when they saw the Furnace Knight and quickly fled towards Bed City.
With the publicity of various eyewitness intelligence, the Crucible Knight has become a popular monster recently with his handsome appearance and powerful strength, and everyone regards him as the final boss.
Therefore, his appearance is more oppressive than the more powerful Tree Guardian.
"I'm sorry, Captain. I may disappoint you," Simon sighed and shouted, "Retreat! Return to the city!"
The mercenaries felt relieved, and the magicians worked together to set up a barrier comparable to high-level magic to temporarily block the monsters before leaving in a hurry.
"Then what should we do?" The leader of the guards looked back in panic, trying to get the order to retreat from Count Philip.
However, there was no one in the rear, Count Philip had already run away.
"【Bed swearing】!!!"
The Light Eagle Group fled in an instant. If their number was twice as large, they might be able to consider fighting the monster tide. Unfortunately, there were only about a hundred people in total, and nearly half of them were dead, so they couldn't put up any fight at all.
However, they still have some quality. Even when they were fleeing, they did not scream and run for their lives. Instead, they often cast magic, shoot arrows, etc. to hinder the pursuing monsters so that they did not look too embarrassed.
Looking back at the ancient city, the smoke and dust had dissipated, and Gelka fell to the ground, shocked to find that he was still alive?
It was no coincidence that he was still alive, because a reliable figure stood in front of him. It was a young girl. Although she looked young, she used the giant sword in her hand to block the Golden Return!
The brave Elsa finally took action.
"Thank you, thank you." Gelka quickly got up and saw that the mercenaries were running away, so he said to Elsa: "Retreat for now, hero."
Elsa nodded, but the tree guards would not give them this opportunity.
The golden halberd came with the power to shatter rocks. Elsa's eyes focused and she swung the giant sword in her hand!
"Bang--"
Blades collided with halberds, sparks flew, and unreasonable things happened.
The girl's slender arm suddenly burst out with terrifying strength, knocking the golden halberd back!
Not only the golden halberd, but even the tree guards themselves were retreating, and the arms holding the weapons were shaking.
Just one attack made the C+ level Tree Guardian fail?
The brave man is so terrifying!
Elsa smiled with a few pixels in her eyes. She remembered that she should make a "yeah" sign at this time as written on the novel she was reading in the study.
It looked like he was holding up two fingers?
Just as she was snapping her fingers, another tree guard hit her hard and sent her flying, drawing a perfect parabola in the air.
After landing on the ground with a bang, Elsa crawled out unharmed and retreated without any desire to fight.
“.”
Gelka didn't know what to say.
Anyway, just run.
This was the first battle between the Sean Underground City and the Light Eagles. In a short period of time, the Light Eagles were completely defeated.
There is only one person left in the ancient city - Gong Qiying.
His current condition seems a little abnormal. Although he still looks human on the outside, he cannot hide his monster-like aura, and there is black mist surrounding him.
[Open Mode], this is the only way for dungeon monsters to come to the surface under normal circumstances.
The condition for opening it is that the dungeon believes it has been sufficiently threatened. This judgment condition is very confusing and cannot be judged by conventional means.
However, at certain times, the city lord's emotional fluctuations can also affect the open mode. Extreme joy, extreme sorrow, extreme grief, and extreme anger may all trigger a rampage.
This is actually not a good thing. First, people are worried about the mental state of the city lord. Second, slaughtering surface creatures will not bring any mental benefits to the dungeon.
In open mode, the mental energy required to summon monsters is greatly reduced. Yes, it is beneficial to the city lord, but it is still a consumption after all. Consuming mental energy without replenishing it is a loss-making business no matter how you look at it.
The mental state of the dungeon lord is also a problem that cannot be underestimated. If he stays alone in the dungeon for a long time, at best he will develop Alzheimer's disease like Godwin, or at worst he will go crazy. Either way, it will not be a good ending.
Fortunately, Gong Qiying can still use his clone to communicate with the outside world and make up for the lost humanity.
In addition, there is another very important point.
It is said that if you frequently go out of control in the dungeon, you will encounter unspeakable things.
The ancient books left by the previous Godwin were ambiguous about this, and Gong Qiying didn't know what he would encounter, so he had to be careful.
"But I finally got out, I have to do something."
He looked around and saw a large crowd of monsters quietly waiting for his orders.
Be it the brutal flying dragon, the tree guard, the black knight, or the furnace knight, they all surrounded him like the moon surrounded by stars and lowered their proud heads.
king.
Here, the dungeon lord is their king!
Looking at the huge army of monsters, Gong Qiying suddenly felt that "it is not impossible to conquer the world."
I was drifting, I really was drifting, he shook his head and waved his hand.
"Let's go, destination is Bed City!"
"Please help me destroy the annoying nobles!"
In Bed City, Adventurer's Guild.
"What do you mean the monsters escaped from the dungeon?"
Stellan jumped up from the fireplace, looking nervous.
The adventurer who came to report the news shouted in panic: "It's true, I saw it with my own eyes! Even Count Philip was eaten!"
Actually not.
There was a sudden commotion in the guild, and quite a few people did not go near the portal. This was the first time they had heard of this.
"It's out of control, the Thane dungeon is out of control!"
"I want to go home. Is it too late to run now?"
"Wuhu, being able to witness the monsters attacking the city with your own eyes is worth the money even if you die!"
How come.
Stellan held the sun badge on her chest, which was now slightly warm.
If she had to make a choice, she would definitely stay in the city to help.
After all, isn't it the duty of a Sun Warrior to help others?
At this moment, the door of the guild was pushed open. When people saw the face of the visitor clearly, they shouted in surprise:
"It's Mr. Leon, and the Raiders Team!"
“They’re back!”
There will be one or two more updates in the evening?
By the way, please give me a ticket for next month~
