Chapter 106: (1/2)
In the hall of the underground palace, the cracks on the floor tiles continued to spread around, and with a terrifying roar, an interstellar beast with sharp horns on its head appeared in everyone's field of vision.
This is the first two-star diamond mountain beast.
Although it has two stars, its attack power is not high, but its ability to escape is extremely strong. When it encounters danger, it can quickly burrow into the ground, clear the way through the sharp corners of its head, and then disappear into the ground.
Because its sharp horns are so hard that it can easily destroy even the strongest rocky mountain, the name of the mountain beast is also derived from it.
Because of this, the Diamond Mountain Beast has become one of the two-star beasts that cannot be eradicated in the Roland Empire so far.
No one would have imagined that at a time when the sky encountered such a major crisis, the ground would be unsafe!
The burrowing beast jumped out of the passage with a roar, and two or three interstellar beasts quickly jumped out behind it.
The strength of these interstellar beasts is at the high level of 2 stars, that is, between 25 and 29. The strength is much higher than that of the elemental masters of the palace, and the breath alone causes a lot of pressure.
This is not over yet, there are obviously star beasts blocked at the bottom of the channel, making bursts of roars that make the earth tremble.
Probably the only thing that can be fortunate is that the exits of the passages created by the mountain beasts are narrow, and only one or two can pass through at a time.
After the initial shock, confusion and panic, the commander quickly calmed down and began to direct his manpower to deal with the raiding star beasts.
"Quick, take down the mountain beast quickly, don't let this beast destroy the palace again!"
The building materials used in this underground palace are very elegant, and there is a special reinforcement array. Except for the intractable mountain beasts, other interstellar beasts cannot destroy the cornerstone of the palace.
Now there is only this narrow passage, and they can handle it for the time being, but if they let the mountain beast make a hole and expand the passage, it will be troublesome!
The burrowing beast must be stopped, it must be killed as soon as possible!
Under the commander's dispatch, the bewildered soldiers quickly restored order and carried out the order subconsciously.
All the Earth Elementalists shot at the same time, the Earth Elements reinforced the ground, and the speed of the Drilling Mountain Beast, which was escaping through the hole, slowed down significantly.
While other attacking elementists launched their skills one after another, they threw the attack with the highest damage at the beast, and for a time the underground palace shone with the light of various elemental skills.
The few interstellar beasts that had jumped out of the passage were temporarily blocked by other ordinary soldiers.
Holding up their shields and various weapons, they used their rich combat experience to entangle these interstellar beasts, blocking them at the exit of the passage, so that the interstellar beasts below the exit could not come out temporarily.
The palace guards also followed suit, organizing the people who took refuge in the hall to retreat to the room and the ground.
But soon, worse news came - the palace's guardian circle was completely shattered, a large number of flying interstellar beasts poured into the palace, the ground has fallen, and it is even more dangerous than the underground!
There was no way, the guards could only close the entrance of the underground palace again to prevent the siege of the star beasts that flew into the upper palace.
"Roar—" A flame beast that was blocked by the soldiers spewed flames from its mouth, and the extremely high-temperature orange-red fire lit up, attacking the soldiers who were only holding shields.
When the fire snake was about to engulf the soldiers in the front row, a huge wind shield formed, blocking the strong flames, and at the same time, a drizzle fell, extinguishing the flames.
Sirin and Xenos, who finally arrived in the hall, stood behind the soldiers, and with a solemn expression, they used elemental skills to resist the attacks of several interstellar beasts.
Although it was temporarily blocked, the gap in levels was too large, and they knew in their hearts that such a block would not last long.
What's more, in addition to this flame beast, there are two other interstellar beasts, which are also close to the strength of three stars!
There were not many elemental divisions left in the palace originally. If it weren't for the fact that 10,000 soldiers accompany Marshal Joyce back to the city to report on his duties, the situation might be even worse.
However, even so, the number of elemental masters in the underground palace at this moment is definitely not more than a hundred, and most of them are in their early one-star ranks. It has not been such a serious attack in the rear of the empire for a long time. There are few and powerful two-star elemental masters. Basically stay on the front lines!
Xu Sili stood at the entrance of the hallway in the same depths of the palace, watching the battle at the other end of the hall from a distance, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead and palms.
The difference in strength is too great!
Just relying on these low-level elementalists and soldiers can't stop these star beasts that are close to Samsung!
He glanced at the countdown again, and there were still nearly three hours before the end of the trial.
The late emperor standing beside him also looked extremely ugly. After a day and night of recuperation and recovery, although he was not yet at his peak, he still had the energy to use his phonetic skills again.
However, after using it, he is likely to fall into a state of disengagement again, and the ground has fallen. Even if all the star beasts that entered the underground palace are killed, they will be trapped here.
In other words, the people of the entire inner city are trapped underground. If the interstellar beasts continue to fly over and develop the inner city into a nest...
The late emperor gritted his teeth secretly and clenched his fists.
Watching the interstellar beasts wreaking havoc in the hall, the soldiers had already begun to suffer casualties. He finally stepped forward and decided to deal with these beasts first.
However, he only took two steps when he felt a flash in front of him, and a figure rushed out faster than him.
The late emperor was startled, and when he turned around, he saw that the boy who was standing beside his son had disappeared, and only the little boy was left alone.
Although Xu Sili looked calm, his pale face could clearly sense his worries.
Intellectually, he knows that the best countermeasure now is - Gou.
Hiding in the back, when the three hours are over, he and Si Sheng will be able to leave the trial world safely. By then, everything in the trial world will be over, and it has nothing to do with them.
This is the safest way, as long as you close your eyes, cover your ears, don't listen, don't watch, no matter how many people die, it won't affect them.
After all, these people are all fictional phantoms created by the trial world! They are not real people.
But Xu Sili found that...he still couldn't do it.
This is probably the worst part of this trial, he can't ignore the life and death of these people at all!
Whether it's Janice Sirin, or Xenos and the old emperor, or other familiar faces, he simply can't do anything about dying.
So when Si Sheng asked him again, he still agreed.
Although Xu Sili didn't know whether this decision was right or wrong, what would he do if Si Sheng was injured or even died because of it?
Fortunately, Si Sheng never let him down.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the blond boy broke through the line of defense formed by the soldiers, and even when passing by Xenos, he casually took the sword on his waist.
Under the watchful eyes of the public, the young man made a quick and powerful vertical leap and jumped directly to the top of the flame beast.
Blood splattered everywhere, and the fire burned.
No matter how the flame beast struggled, the young man stood firmly on top of its head, and the blade penetrated deeply into its skull.
Si Sheng is a born warrior.
After the future battle memory is revived, even if his strength is suppressed and many skills cannot be used, he can easily harvest the life of an interstellar beast just by relying on his physical strength and skills.
Even if the level of the two sides is very different, it can't stop him.
The attached skills on the sword were activated, and the huge sword shadow flashed, directly piercing the entire head of the flame beast.
The hand holding the sword spun vigorously, blood and brains splattered suddenly, the young man with an indifferent and indifferent expression was like a tyrant who came out of **** in such a scene.
The soldiers had stopped attacking long ago and looked at this scene with dull eyes.
The rain that kept dousing the flames also stopped.
Xenos stared at the boy from a distance, the indifference on his face was gone. Although he had seen the strength of this boy that day, he did not expect that he would still be so fierce when facing the two-star high-level interstellar beast!
However, the eldest prince touched his waist after realizing it.
Isn't the sword in the boy's hand the sword given to him by Marshal Joyce? When did it get to him?
The huge sword shadow disappeared, and the flame beast whose head was pierced crashed to the ground. Xu Sili looked at Si Sheng from a distance, and he was a little relieved.
Suddenly, the little boy was stunned.
This was the first time he had witnessed Si Sheng killing the star beast. In his sight, he could vaguely see a red energy emanating from the dead flame beast, and then—was absorbed by Si Sheng!
what is this?
With a flash of inspiration, Xu Sili opened Si Sheng's puppet panel to take a look.
After entering the trial world, Si Sheng's panel displayed the value after his strength was suppressed, and most of his skills were locked.
However, a few days ago, he was still in ordinary half-star strength, and now his level has reached level 16!
how can it be so fast...
Xu Sili suddenly thought of the battle that took place in the central square the day before yesterday. Could it be because Si Sheng killed a lot of interstellar beasts that day, so his level increased?
Can Si Sheng also be upgraded by killing monsters?
It's just that he is not in the form of experience points, but by absorbing the energy scattered after the death of the star beast?
Xu Sili suddenly understood why Si Sheng grew so fast and became so powerful in ten years.
He is not affected by the level cap, he can become stronger by killing monsters, and he has those strange skills that he gave him in "God's Game", plus his own mind, only if he does not become the ceiling of starry sky combat power. Strange!
After watching the young man absorb the energy of the flame beast, stuff the body of the flame beast into the exit of the passage, and then raise his sword again to kill the remaining two interstellar beasts, Xu Sili suddenly felt a little confident.
Si Sheng, maybe it really can be done!
The late emperor was obviously also shocked.
He had already retreated to Xu Sili's side, and suddenly said to him, "Your partner... is very strong."
Xu Sili's expression relaxed a little, and he couldn't help bending his lips when he heard the words, and then he thought of something, he hesitated for a while, and looked at the late emperor, "Yeah, you helped me choose."
After Si Sheng came to prominence in the beast tide, the old emperor removed Joyce from the post of marshal and directly put him in the position, and later relied heavily on him.
This can be seen from the fact that Wen Jishan became the chief executive of the imperial city after being introduced by Si Sheng.
Of course, Wen Jishan also proved his ability with his actions.
Later, when he was about to die, the old emperor also entrusted Sinuo to Si Sheng. Before Sinuo grew up, all government affairs were also handed over to him. It can be said that Si Sheng was completely the role of the regent.
The old emperor's trust in Si Sheng was evident.
Hearing Xu Sili's words, the late emperor was obviously startled, and then a smile finally appeared on his indifferent face.
"It seems that this emperor is not only a genius, but also has a very accurate eye for people."
Xu Sili rolled his eyes secretly.
However, looking at the gradually decreasing trial time, he pursed his lips and did not refute.
Just let him chatter.
After all, they don't have much time together...
"Sinos and Sirin..."
At this time, he suddenly heard the voice of the late emperor, "Why did they have an accident?"
