Chapter 176 Underground Shadow Demon, Treasures in the Lair
【Are you going to enter the ‘cave leading to the underground abyss’? 】
Lin Xun originally thought that since he could meet a giant monster on the way, he could go back and forth between the 'Star Tower Ruins' and the 'Underground Abyss Cave', and maybe run into a few lone giant monsters.
But the anomalies in the cave aroused his interest.
"After exploring the abyss cave, it's too late to slowly acquire divine items..."
As soon as he thought about it, he clicked 'yes'.
[You step into the dark cave...]
[The environment in the cave is cold, damp, dark, and there is a pungent rancid smell floating in the air. 】
[You look at the stalactites of different shapes hanging down from the rock wall at the top of the cave, and the stalagmites standing on the ground, and smell the smelly and slightly watery air. You judge that this is a cave, and there may be something hidden deep in the cave.
There is an underground river.]
[As you keep moving forward, the limestone under your feet will occasionally feel a soft tread. When you look down, it is scattered moss and the feces of unknown creatures...]
[As you continue to move forward in the cave, you will soon come to an underground space...]
[The huge underground space is as vast as a square. Some hanging stalactites are connected to the stalagmites on the ground, forming strange and thick stone pillars. Stone buds, stone flowers and stone curtains are formed on the rock walls in various shapes...]
【You are immersed in the beautiful scene, and suddenly notice a hint of danger. 】
[An inexplicable shadow suddenly flashes behind the thick stone pillar. You look closely, but you see nothing strange.]
Lin Xun frowned.
He had a premonition that he was about to encounter a battle.
According to the text description, the monsters in the cave are likely to be agile monsters.
Open the inventory and click on ‘Bronze Sand Mallet’.
[You take out the 'fine copper sand mallet' and shake it gently...]
[In the wonderful rhythm of rustling sounds, you summon the Watcher ‘Battle Angel—Valkyrie’. 】
[A beautiful long-haired girl walks from the void. She is wearing a short lavender kimono, with a pair of huge copper wings on her back...]
['Battle Angel - Valkyrie' squinted her eyes and looked around. In the pitch-black environment, she could only see things at close range around her with the help of the light emitted by the 'Thunder Dragon Staff Gun' in your hand.
】
"...The Valkyrie seems to have no night vision."
Lin Xun twitched the corner of his mouth.
The Valkyrie is made of fine copper and her eyes cannot be transplanted. She does not have night vision, so her combat effectiveness is greatly weakened in a dark environment.
However, as a conventional creature, the three-headed lion may be able to transplant eyes...
He wondered whether it would be necessary to transplant a few pairs of special eyes into the three-headed lion to enhance its all-weather combat capability.
Suddenly he slapped his forehead and directly summoned the three lions.
[With a crisp whistle, you summon the ferocious and strong ‘Three-Headed Lion of Sinking’. 】
[The figure of ‘Battle Angel—Valkyrie’ dissipated into the void...]
[As soon as the 'Three Sunken Lions' appeared, six huge lion eyes looked around, and the scarlet eyes were particularly eye-catching in the darkness. 】
[Three lions are guarding you, their limbs are tense, their fangs are bared, and they are ready to attack the danger in the dark at any time. 】
Lions are cats with extremely strong night vision and are 6 times more sensitive to light than humans.
Ordinary lions can hunt at night, let alone magical creatures like three-headed lions.
[Suddenly the three lions roared in pain, and you only saw a black shadow flash past, leaving a ferocious wound on the three lions' bodies. 】
[The granulations of the wound of the three-headed lion squirmed and healed quickly, but the attacker is no longer visible in your eyes.]
"It is indeed an agile monster..."
[The black shadow flashed past again, blood splattered everywhere...]
[The three lions ignored their wounds and rushed towards the shadow, but it easily dodged it, and the shadow disappeared behind the stone pillar again...]
The monster was so elusive that Lin Xun's spells had no way of targeting it.
He was about to change into a dancer's body and compete with speed.
Suddenly I remembered that except for Master Fa's body, the other bodies did not have night vision capabilities.
Lin Xun frowned, canceled the three-headed lion's guard command, and instead issued an attack command.
Open the skill bar and click on Knowledge Grating.
[You raise your staff and recite the incantation silently...]
[The pure white knowledge grating rises from the ground to protect you firmly.]
[The moment the grating lights up, it will illuminate the figure of a three-headed lion rushing behind you!]
[It paused and quickly covered its eyes with its forelimbs, as if it couldn't bear the sudden light.]
【It is this meal that allows you to see its figure clearly.】
[It has a humanoid body, covered with pitch-black bristles, with shrunken bat wings growing on its back that do not match the size of its body, and its ferocious head has two curved horns...]
[The 'Underground Shadow Demon' opened its big mouth full of sharp teeth, and the shrill scream echoed, spreading deep into the cave...]
[It quickly dodged the attack of the three lions and disappeared behind the stone pillar.]
[The three-headed lion shrugged its nose, as if it smelled the scent of a monster. It quickly ran towards a stone pillar in the cave, forcing a shadow to dodge quickly. 】
good chance!
Lin Xun quickly pressed the skill.
[You widen your eighteen green eyes, and countless characters with flashing white lights appear out of thin air.]
[The 'Underground Shadow Demon' howled miserably under the light, covering its eyes, and then dense characters poured into its head...]
[Its head exploded!]
[You defeated the ‘Underground Shadow Demon’, and your experience points increased slightly. 】
[You have gained ‘unyielding weak spirituality’*1]
[You have obtained the ‘stinky Luminous Sand’ (item)]
Lin Xun used one shot of 'Illusory Knowledge Infusion' to kill the monster instantly.
"It seems to be a crispy monster with full agility."
He opened the inventory and checked the props he had just obtained.
[‘Stinky Luminous Sand’ (prop), a dry object like a clod of soil, exudes a long-lasting stench. Using this prop will slightly enhance your night vision ability. 】
"What the hell? It can also enhance night vision. It's such a good thing."
Lin Xun was about to switch to the earth giant and enhance the night vision ability of the berserker's body.
"Ye Mingsha...sounds familiar, damn! Isn't this just bat shit!"
He suddenly remembered and immediately gave up his plan to use this item on other bodies.
"It would be more reliable to find an opportunity for Bennett to transplant some eyes with night vision. I am not a 'hungry old man' and I don't have a special habit of eating raw colon."
[You patrol around the huge underground space and find that it is connected to three forked passages on the left, middle and right.]
[There is a faint sound of rattling in the passage on the left, as if there are many creatures moving deep in the passage. 】
[There is a lot of moisture in the middle passage, and you can hear the sound of dripping water coming from it. 】
[The passage on the right is just like where you are, there is nothing unusual about it. 】
【Which passage do you want to go to?】
Lin Xun decisively chose the first item, the channel on the left.
There is no other reason. It’s just grinding monsters and upgrading. It’s not shabby.
[You are about to go to the passage on the left. The sound of rustling in the passage gradually becomes louder. It seems that countless creatures are approaching you! 】
[You open your eyes and look into the passage, only to see the ‘underground shadow demons’ coming out one after another and attacking you quickly! 】
Lin Xun smiled slightly, he already understood the weaknesses of this monster with full agility and extra points.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have hesitated to choose the path with more monsters.
[Tide-like ‘underground shadow demons’ squeeze out from the passage. They wave their claws and approach you one after another. Shadows rush towards you at extremely fast speeds! 】
Lin Xun clicked on a useless skill that had been gathering dust for a long time—‘Knowledge Shine’!
[You raise two staffs and recite the incantation silently...]
[Countless characters flashing with white light appeared out of thin air, and then were annihilated, bursting into dazzling bright light! 】
[Many shrill howls echoed in the huge underground space, and several ‘underground shadow demons’ were reduced to ashes in the strong light. 】
[You defeated the ‘Underground Shadow Demon’, and your experience points increased slightly. 】
[You defeated the ‘Underground Shadow Demon’, and your experience points increased slightly. 】
[You defeated the ‘Underground Shadow Demon’...]
【You defeated...】
[The monsters that were not directly hit by the ‘Knowledge Light’ howled and covered their eyes, rolling back and forth on the ground. 】
"Blinding your titanium alloy dog eyes."
Lin Xun continued to use the 'Light of Knowledge' to slaughter the monsters.
The president's 'Knowledge Shine' skill is only rare, which is probably the upper limit of the skill's quality, but it is more than enough to deal with squishy monsters with added agility.
For underground monsters who are afraid of light, Knowledge Shine is a magical field control skill.
In fact, 'Meteor Light' can also achieve the same effect, but the legendary skill consumes too much mana...
The game text keeps refreshing the screen, showing the experience points and props gained.
Soon he wiped out the tide of monsters.
While harvesting a lot of shit chunks, eyeball props were also dropped.
[‘Underground Shadow Demon’s Eyeballs’*5 (premium-level props): The shadow demons living underground not only did not degrade their eyes in the dark environment, but also evolved their eyes’ night vision capabilities to the extreme. 】
[This prop needs to be used with vacant eye sockets. After use, you will gain excellent night vision. 】
"Shit piece... Oh no, the luminous sand can be sold in the library, and the night vision eyeball can be transplanted into each main body."
[You look at the several intact monster bodies that have fallen to the ground...]
[The body of the 'Underground Shadow Demon' is a demonic monster that lives underground all day long. The bat wings on its back that were originally capable of flying have degraded. Although it has lost its ability to fly, it still retains the function of short-distance gliding. The appearance of the monster's body is similar to that of humans.
Somewhat similar...or are they actually humans? It died of excessive blood loss caused by an eyeball explosion. The similarity is 82% (45%)]
【Do you want to possess this body? 】
Lin Xun was somewhat interested in the monster body with Quan Min's added agility, but unfortunately his body column was full at this time and could no longer hold the monster body.
"We need to acquire divine props as soon as possible, and the body column is not enough."
Currently, he is still short of four divine props to collect nine. If he wants to exchange for legendary divine props... he still has a long way to go.
[You step into the forked passage on the left...]
[Your summoned creature ‘The Three-Headed Lion of Sinking’ is too large and cannot follow you into the passage! 】
Lin Xun had no choice but to cancel the summons.
"It's not good if the size is too big, just enough."
[As you gradually go deeper into the passage, the soft stepping feeling under your feet becomes more frequent.]
[You continue along the passage and soon come to another underground space. 】
[A monster that is much larger than a normal shadow demon is hanging upside down on the stalactite at the top of the rock wall and sleeping. 】
[It looks like the 'Underground Shadow Demon', but its size has grown a lot. 】
[You discovered the ‘King of Underground Shadow Demon’! 】
[You notice that there is a nest made of hay deep in the cave here, and there seems to be something inside that is emitting a faint light. 】
【What is your next move?】
[1. Kill the ‘King of Underground Shadow Demon’ and seize the treasures in the lair. 】
[2. Steal the treasures in the lair without alerting the ‘King of the Underground Shadow Demon’. 】
[3. Leave silently and return to the original fork in the cave. 】
According to the strength of the Shadow Demon, the strength of the King of Shadow Demon is not much higher.
Just as Lin Xung was about to click on the first option, he suddenly stopped.
The reason why the underworld game is called the underworld game is that it does not play its cards according to common sense and often uses underworld tricks.
"Be careful with your ten-thousand-year ship. Where there are treasures, it's always right to be cautious."
Perhaps because of the PTSD caused by the treasure chest, Lin Xun carefully pressed the second option.
[You tiptoe deep into the cave, looking at the 'Underground Shadow Demon King' above your head from time to time, only to see that he is still sleeping soundly. 】
[You continue to move forward quietly...]
[You walk to the nest and take a closer look. There are numerous white bones spread among the hay, which look like human skeletons.]
[The luminous objects in the lair are several pieces of fluorescent ore. 】
[You smell a sweet fragrance, as if the fragrance is coming from the ore...]
[You feel a little uncomfortable smelling the fragrance, feeling something bad in your heart, and want to flee from here. A scream echoes in the cave...]
[The ‘King of the Underground Shadow Demon’ at the top of the rock wall woke up at some point and has already come behind you and is staring at you. 】
[Its eyes emitted a faint green light in the darkness, and with a scream, countless "underground shadow demons" surged out from the shadow corners of the cave. 】
[You are about to raise the staff and recite the incantation silently...but you find that the two staffs in your hand are like two stone pillars weighing ten thousand pounds, and the syllables of the incantation coming out of your mouth are more like disorderly murmurs in your sleep.]
[Monsters swarm in and crowd behind the 'King of Underground Shadow Demons'. Pairs of dark green ones stare at you closely, revealing unbearable hunger. You can even see many 'Underground Shadow Demons' dripping with stench.
saliva.】
[For some reason, the sweet and greasy fragrance in your nose becomes stronger and stronger. You feel dizzy and your vision is blurred. 】
Lin Xun got wise in his anxiety and quickly opened the body bar to switch bodies.
Just click on the attachment option.
[You can no longer stand and collapse to the ground...]
【you are dead!】
The bright red word "vegetable" appeared in front of me again.
