Volume 4 Dungeon Dungeon Chapter 138 Fierce Battle (Part 2)
What would have happened if they had attacked the "corpse pregnant women" at close range?
After confirming that there were no more gruesome corpses at the entrance, Li Wei and the others emerged from their hiding place. Instantly, they were met with a pungent stench of blood.
"We can roughly determine the abilities of all members of the first reincarnation team!" Li Wei took a deep breath and continued, "The first reincarnation team has [number missing] members, including the deceased thief and the female mage. Of the remaining three, the orc should be skilled in melee combat. You could say his melee strength is the strongest among all the reincarnators in this mission. You've fought him, so you should know very well..."
Zheng Yutong and Xue Yan nodded, agreeing with Li Wei's deduction.
"Of the remaining two, one is skilled at controlling and modifying corpses, including their appearance and causing them to explode. This person is very cunning and deserves our attention!"
"The last one" must be the one who killed most of the monsters in this Monastery. He undoubtedly possesses powerful attack methods, as you've seen from the wounds on the monster corpses along the way. Those monsters were killed without any resistance, and the methods were extremely bizarre. If we're only talking about combat strength, he is undoubtedly the strongest one. If my deduction is correct, his combat strength definitely surpasses mine, reaching the Tian level!"
These words made the three women frown. Wang, what a terrifying being he was! The thought of possibly fighting him soon weighed heavily on their hearts.
Li Wei laughed and said, "However, don't underestimate yourselves too much. Anyone with super strong control and magical attack power will also be very fragile in their physical body. Just like that magician and the thief. When we encounter them, Xue Yan, you can handle the reincarnator who can control corpses."
The latter was taken aback, a strange expression appearing on his face.
"Don't overthink it. I've just realized something." Li Wei paused for a moment, then continued, "I can't protect all of you. You can only protect yourselves, understand? In Shadow Street, only the strong can survive. If you don't have strength, one day you'll end up like Zheng Chenglong, dying in front of me. I don't want to see that happen."
Zheng Yutong and the other two understood these words perfectly well; in fact, they were constantly training themselves.
"After this mission, I will lead the rest of the team on special operations, while for the three of you, special operations have already begun."
Seeing the resolute looks in the three people's eyes, Li Wei finally felt a great weight lifted from his heart. He was not a heartless person; on the contrary, Li Wei was very sensitive, but he kept everything hidden in his heart.
"That orc possesses a skill called Frenzy. It should be an ability to temporarily boost combat power, so, Yu Tong, you deal with him. Last time, you had to engage in close combat to protect the others. This time, use the advantage of Wind Walk to kite him and kill him."
As Archer with the ability to move quickly using the Wind Walk skill, Zheng Yutong is bound to be someone many people try to curry favor with in Shadow Street.
Zheng Yutong was also very satisfied with this arrangement.
"As for that reincarnator who might reach the Field level, I'll deal with him!" Li Wei understood. Only he could fight a Field-level reincarnator.
"And what about me?"
Nina stared wide-eyed at Li Wei. She had thought that Li Wei would assign her an enemy to deal with, but in the end, it wasn't her turn.
"Nina, your mission is the most important!" Li Wei beckoned Nina closer and spoke to her for a few minutes before the young girl finally smiled.
"Don't worry, I will definitely finish it."
Enter the Catacombs.
The dark environment is unsettling to everyone who comes here. From the dark corners, eerie noises occasionally emanate, making it difficult for those who enter to distinguish between rats and man-eating demons.
If it's a rat, it'll only make you tense, but if it's a man-eating demon, then the next second you might be stuck here forever, just like those mutilated corpses on the floor.
However, today is a disastrous day for the demons living in the Catacombs.
Looking at the monster carcasses scattered all along the way, Li Wei felt as if a stone was pressing on his heart. It was clear that these monsters had all died at the hands of the same person.
Even for myself, killing so many monsters at once would be difficult, but the reincarnator in the first squad did it, and all the monsters were instantly killed on their way to the attack.
This situation only changed after they reached the second level of the Catacombs. From here on, the monsters' combat power increased dramatically, and the reincarnator in the first squad clearly encountered a lot of trouble.
However, the monster still couldn't stop that person's steps.
The third floor is the same.
They were very close to the fourth level where Andariel was; Li Wei could even hear the Arch Devil's roar.
Andariel was furious. Anyone would be upset if their subordinates were suddenly broken into and slaughtered while they were resting. However, as one of the four lesser demons of Hell, she had her own sense of propriety.
Andariel only takes action against exceptionally powerful enemies, and this is clearly the time.
Opposite him was a tall creature clad in heavy armor. Although it had the appearance of a human, Andariel knew that the thing opposite him was not human.
That aura of death seemed even more malevolent than himself.
But no matter how powerful the enemy, they will eventually perish here.
"Intruder, if you submit to me, I will give you everything you desire; if you refuse, only the flames of hell await you!"
Andariel waved her hand, and a large cloud of green mist emerged from it. The corpse of a nearby dead demon was instantly corroded by this green mist.
"Poisonous? Hmph!" The Death Knight, sword in hand, sneered.
Behind him, the Reincarnator hid a dozen meters away. He could sense Andariel's power; perhaps only the Death Knight could rival him.
Or perhaps, she is even stronger than the Death Knight.
If things had gone according to their plan, Andariel would have been killed by now. However, plans never keep up with changes. After seeing this female demon, the reincarnators realized they were wrong.
The mistake was in underestimating Andariel's strength.
Because of the potent poison, he and the Mad God could only stand far away on the outskirts, but things weren't too bad. He had already created dozens of corpse puppets along the way, and most importantly, those puppets with the corpse explosion skill were currently inside this house. As long as Andariel was lured here, everything would be over.
"Someone's approaching!" The orc who had been sitting cross-legged on the ground suddenly opened his eyes.
A reincarnator with orc blood, whose powerful bloodline abilities grant him many powers besides strength, including keen hearing and perception.
"Uh, it must be the second reincarnation team. I didn't expect them to arrive so quickly!" The reincarnator's face turned extremely ugly.
At this crucial moment, no mistakes are allowed, otherwise all previous efforts will be in vain.
"Mad God, I remember last time you said you wanted to wipe out the entire First Brigade, right?" He glanced at the orc and a barely perceptible smile appeared on his face.
These words caused Mad God's face to flash with rage. People who consider themselves strong all have a competitive spirit, and he was no exception. The fact that the members of the First Squad had escaped last time had already made him furious, and now, with the addition of his companions' sarcastic remarks, his anger immediately reached its peak.
"Hehehe, they've come at the perfect time. They escaped last time, but this time, I'll bring back the heads of those cowards. Just you wait and see!"
Having said that, he picked up the Doom Blade and ran outside.
"Brutal man." He sneered, staring at the Mad God's back. Seeing that no one was around, he carefully took out a white and blue scroll from his pocket.
"With this, a Town Portal Scroll. As long as I kill Andariel in one fell swoop, I can go back and collect the team's low score points. Ideally, I should make them both severely injured, then I'll be the final winner!"
"I don't think so!"
A cold voice. The reincarnator was startled, and at the same time, he felt a chill run down his spine.
Someone attacked!
He tried to dodge instantly, but what attacked him was clearly much faster.
With a loud thud!
A throwing knife pierced his forehead, penetrating several inches deep.
In a corner of the room, a figure with a prominent nose gradually emerged; it was Xue Yan, who had mastered the skill of Stealth.
As he burst out of the fourth level of the Catacombs, the Mad God swung his two-handed sword fiercely, deflecting a flying arrow. Looking closer, he saw the woman who had escaped last time nocking a second arrow.
"You vile woman, you're asking for it."
The Mad God roared and strode after him. He was extremely fast, covering a hundred meters in just three or four seconds, but Zheng Yutong was even faster.
After activating the Wind Walk, he instantly covered a hundred meters away. Just as he stopped, another arrow flew towards him.
Thus began the chase. One was skilled in close combat, the other in ranged attacks, while Li Wei and Nina took the opportunity to slip into the fourth floor.
"Go on, Nina!" After entering the fourth floor, Li Wei patted Nina on the shoulder, and she understood. She then slipped into a narrow passage.
This passage, recorded on the Yellow Paper, leads to a storage room in the underground tomb, where something is kept.
Nina's mission is to obtain that thing by any means necessary.
If all goes well, this will be the final battle!
