"here it is--"
Unable to know what was happening behind him when he came, the figures belonging to Duan Qing and others also appeared in the light and shadow of the new layer of Tyrannical Tower under a burst of magic teleportation, confirming each other. After checking for safety, they then turned their gazes to the front of the new corridor road, carefully confirming the situation their team was facing at this time: "The curvature of the curve, the width, the distribution density of the rooms... it looks like It seems like nothing much has changed.”
"But the height has changed." Looking at the edge of the corridor ahead, Gedmane, who was the first to enter the portal, continued in a low voice: "At the height we are at now, no one who is not afraid of heights can I have to be scared of heights.”
"Have we made progress?" Looking towards the bottom of the tower that had been thrown to an unknown height below him and looked like an abyss, the figure of the player named Xue Ling Huan Bing murmured to himself: " The guy also said that he could send us to a more special location so that we are less likely to be discovered, but now this location-"
"The current location seems to be in the middle of the eleventh floor."
Taking out the parchment roll that Malok had thrust into his hand, Duan Qing began to compare the strange lines drawn on it with the system map information displayed by his own detection: "According to normal circumstances, we should appear At the exit of the teleportation gate five hundred meters to our left, the five hundred meters across should be the buffer space that Malok specially prepared for us."
"To buffer us from dangers we may encounter."
Putting away the parchment roll in his hand, he looked with vigilant eyes towards the left direction he indicated before. The faint red ray also appeared in this direction with the eyes of others. At the end of the corridor, it moved slowly back and forth against the dim background. He hurriedly hid next to the wall. Several heavily armed players then stretched out their heads in the direction of the red lights moving back and forth. Some vague black shadows floating in the air outside the corridor also followed. He wandered back and forth in the depths of the dark void listening to the faint chirping sound, and from time to time he would sweep new red rays from other places in the corridor area: "...Shh!"
"Are these the things that Malok mentioned before that we can see right away?" Chao Ri Dongsheng, who curled his lips and put away his head, raised his ax and pressed his body back to the wall behind him: " What are those things? A magical sentry? One of those magical mechanical devices?"
"I have seen these things before when I stayed at the Tower of Tyran. At that time, they were still obeying Malok's command." Duan Qing, who pressed his eyebrows and also withdrew his body, replied with a look of fear. : "I can guarantee that you don't want to see their power, let alone experience it yourself."
"I have also been left with some impressions of their power." Xueling Huanbing, who also pressed his eyebrows and stuck to the wall next to him, took a deep breath: "Hundreds of magic rays. Volley - even a strong man of Heywald's level cannot guarantee that he can survive an attack of that level."
"You remember this very clearly." Duan Qing glanced sideways at the Xue Ling Huan Bing with her hair slicked back, and asked in a low voice with squinting eyes: "Then what impression do you have of the current controllers of these devices? What?"
"I don't know." Xue Ling Huan Bing's answer was very straightforward: "Even if I knew, it has been such a long time, and the other party might have already replaced him."
"So everything can only rely on this map in our hands?" After comparing the parchment in his hand, Duan Qing also sighed: "Well, since there is no way to fight with these sentry guards, If we confront them head-on, then just avoid them."
"But as long as these sentries exist, the error rate we can afford will be even lower." Nodding in agreement, Xueling Huanbing turned to look at the other side of the front where the team was facing: "We can't let this happen. The humanoid enemies find out, otherwise if they sound the alarm and call those magic sentries over - huh?"
"Are we missing anyone here?"
She raised her eyes, and her alert gaze flashed past everyone: "Who left without permission?"
"Lorna?"
After quickly confirming everyone's position, Duan Qing's vigilant gaze also hurriedly cast his eyes deeper into the corridor on the right: "That guy... she won't be acting alone again, right?"
"Oops, if it were her, she would really be able to do something like not follow Malok's instructions." An anxious look flashed across his face, and a hint of impatience flashed on Xue Ling Huan Bing's face. Emotion: "Took the opportunity to slip away? Stuck on the tenth floor?"
"No, I should have taken the first step."
His eyes turned to the front of the team, and Ningyu Ninglan, who was responsible for taking care of Fula, suddenly said: "Ninglan heard some noises."
"It seems like the sound of fighting is coming from the front."
After confirming each other's eyes, several people hurriedly and quietly moved toward the front of the corridor. The originally faint sound of the battle became clearer in each other's ears as they got closer, and in the middle From time to time, the sound of people falling to the ground and heavy objects could be heard: "... your speed is too slow."
"Ms. Lorna."
The fallen figures who could not confirm whether they were corpses began to appear in Duan Qing's eyes. Finally, several people came to the last position of the Magic Empire soldier who was thrown to the ground by the black-robed woman. The man with his back to them gathered together again. The mysterious woman in the hood then twisted her wrist and turned her back to Duan Qing and others who were closing the distance with an indifferent and cold attitude: "I know how anxious you are to leave here, but this place is still too much. It’s dangerous. If you’re not careful, you might—”
"I emphasize once again: don't compare me with you." She interrupted Duan Qing's words, and Lorna, who slowly lowered her hands, also took a step forward again: "Unlike you, dealing with these ordinary mortals, for For me, it’s very easy to rush.”
"We don't find it troublesome to deal with them. It's just that in this unclear situation, if we are not careful, we will alert the enemy...forget it."
After briefly checking the figures lying on the ground, Duan Qing, whose face gradually became serious, swallowed back what he originally planned to say: "This is a group of adventurers."
"What? Adventurer?" Gedman, who was standing behind him, was shocked when he heard the sound: "Doesn't that mean that all the news has spread?"
"It was originally a corridor connecting the tenth floor to the eleventh floor. Normal people would place defensive forces here." Duan shook his head when he felt the back of the mysterious woman who was about to leave in front of him was frozen in place. Qing stood up slowly: "If you think about it this way, encountering defenders is an inevitable result, but it is also mixed with stronger punishment measures such as magic sentries, so we need to be more careful."
"Since the alarm will be triggered soon, we have to come up with some corresponding special measures." Feeling the air that seemed to be tightening rapidly around him, the gray-robed magician waved to other teammates around him and said, "Because we You need to buy time.”
"So we had to slip away before the other party caught us."
Faint magic water droplets then enveloped everyone with Duan Qing's waving movements. The inconspicuous transparent film also blurred the running bodies, and several magic sentries flew in instantly. The buzzing sound circling back and forth also flashed past the place where Duan Qing and others were just now. The suspended body carrying various flying magic arrays and mechanical rotors swept across the scene, but no results were found - Taking advantage of the dim scene, they quickly left the scene. The closely-closed sneak team then hurriedly started a new round of running along the corridor. Several other groups of black enemy figures from the depths of the corridor also came. As they ran forward, they walked out of the depths of the portal at the far end of the corridor, passing by Duan Qing and others with their own shouts: "Where? Where?"
"The location is further ahead! At the other end of the circular corridor!"
"Pay attention to what's going on around you! Don't let them slip away again!"
"Where are the people? Damn it! Search every room! Don't miss every corner - huh?"
"……Oops."
In the scene of several almost transparent figures standing in rows against the wall, the tip of the comet ax in Asahi Dongsheng's hand also hit the ground under his feet while everyone was focused on it. At the same time, an almost stagnant and embarrassing atmosphere spread between the giant axe warriors and the pursuers parked on the other side with this momentary scene. Finally, accompanied by shouts from both sides, they headed towards the opposite direction. The directions rushed at the same time: "They are there!"
"I wasted three bottles of invisibility potion! You idiot!"
"Sorry, sorry, I didn't expect such an accident to happen."
The giant ax flashed a brilliant golden light in the air, and Chao Ri Dongsheng, who was running at the rear, had an embarrassed smile that later turned into a ferocious smile: "And -"
"Now that the invisibility effect has been broken, it doesn't matter if the jar is broken, right?"
The rolled-up blade of the ferocious giant ax drew several rays of blood in the air, and the several black-clothed enemies chasing at the front were sent flying very cleanly. The giant axe warrior whose footsteps suddenly stopped on the ground turned around and spun around. However, the movement did not stop, and a violent storm of ax blades was set off in the enemy camp that rushed forward in an instant. Letting out a helpless sigh, Duan Qing, who also stopped, then threw his own fireball towards the crowd of entangled figures as a horn of counterattack. However, the black light belt crossed the shoulders of the gray-robed magician at the next moment, knocking the figures who were about to be entangled with Asahi Dongsheng again to the ground: "Don't continue to entangle! Run!"
"Don't waste the opportunity that Ms. Lorna has given you!" The warrior player who was about to continue wielding the giant ax was stunned for a second in the smoke of the exploding fireball. The paused body was immediately followed by Gede who came from behind. Mine grabbed him and said, "The sentries behind are going to catch up soon!"
"Of course running is easy, who doesn't know how to run?" Asahi Dongsheng, who reluctantly picked up his giant ax and was forced to run with his teammates, also let out a dissatisfied complaint: "This kind of thing right now In this situation, we simply cannot get rid of the enemy, is it going to evolve into the same situation as last time?"
"Sorry, I don't have any more magic delay bombs." He was answered by the emotionless voice of Duan Qing, who was leading the front: "Even if I still have such bombs, it seems that the other party will not let us perform it again. The opportunity for that scene.”
"They're very well guarded this time."
Following the raised gaze of the gray-robed magician, several people looked towards the far end of the corridor in the direction of the portal where figures were still popping up. The Magic Empire soldiers who were constantly pouring out of there were also at this time. Instead of rushing towards where Duan Qing and others were like the previous search troops, they first surrounded the portal leading to the next level: "Look, the way forward has also been blocked. block up."
"After all, the structure of the Tower of Tyran is so simple. If you want to go to other floors, you can only go through the portals at the end of these corridors." The never-ending running footsteps finally stopped for a moment, and the voice of Xue Ling Huan Bing also followed. The sound rang in Duan Qing's ears: "Since all the troops of the Magic Empire are scattered on various floors, it is very easy to transfer from the twelfth floor to the eleventh floor."
"So as long as they use the tactic of blocking from the front and blocking from the back, it will be difficult for us to fly even if we have wings!" Gritting his teeth, Gedman, who arrived later, hurriedly set up his shield: "Damn! Before! Is that Marlock really not joking? We have only climbed one level and are about to be completely annihilated!"
"That's assuming we only walked one level."
The diagonally spiraling corridor gradually surrounded the pursuers from both directions. In the middle of the giant abyss in the center, there were also magic sentries with a buzzing sound approaching quickly. The Qingling adventure group was locked from all sides. Duan Qing's sigh also sounded in the center of the team, but his words did not have any hint of despair: "Although I still don't know why Malok left us such a puzzle, it does leave some clues for the current predicament. Here’s a solution.”
"Don't ask, just follow me."
Stopping Xueling Huanbing and others who wanted to ask questions next moment, the gray-robed magician suddenly rushed out of the crowd with a strange smile on his face.
"Jump!"
In the red light that swept across, he shouted out his last word, dragging a series of killing shouts and the body outline of the magic sentry's volley of light attacks, and then took the lead to cross the edge of the corridor, heading towards the high ground. The void abyss in the center of the tower jumped straight down.
