Chapter 53 - ancient city
Rumble.
The surrounding sea water was trembling slightly, and a huge magic circle centered on the metal disk quickly formed, enveloping everyone around.
“Teleport the magic circle in a large area!” Baal cursed inwardly.
But before they could explain, Baer and the others disappeared into the teleportation array with a white light. The metal disc completed its final mission, and in a blink of an eye, it turned into dust.
Space flow.
This is a cliff, and at the bottom of the cliff is a huge pool. A huge waterfall pours down from the edge of the cliff with a roaring roar and falls into the pool below.
The crowd emerged from the pool and swam back to the shore.
Barr shook the water droplets off his body.
This is a huge valley with a vague outline of a building in the distance. It is surrounded by mountain peaks, and behind the mountain peaks is a gray area, which is hard to see. Barr checked the map. Except for the ancient ruins: Ulaanbaatar, the rest of the place was pitch black.
This way of opening the positioning transmission is not common in the exploration of ruins. Usually, such ancient ruins are located in the free plane outside the main world. Barr has only heard of it, but he didn’t expect to touch it for the first time. up. The internal situation of this kind of ruins is difficult to predict. The instant change of terrain also makes some of the preparations that Baal made in advance lose their usefulness.
“Sir, what is that?” A tauren warrior looked at the top of the cliff in surprise.
Turning around and looking up along the cliff, Baal’s eyes narrowed.
I saw several huge cracks in the air above the cliff. The cracks were of different sizes, but the smallest ones were hundreds of meters long. A large area of the sky around is covered with dense cracks, black mist fills the gap, and blue and purple lightning flashes from time to time, as if the sky has been torn apart by someone, and the destructive aura that emanates from time to time makes people shudder.
“To be able to directly smash the barriers of the plane, what level of power is this.” Baal was awe-inspiring.
Looking at the shape of these cracks, it doesn’t look like it was caused by the attack of war weapons. Most of the attack methods of ancient warfare weapons are energy beams and energy bombs, and the damage traces are relatively regular, and it is difficult to cause such irregular cracks. But if it is artificial, then the strength of this person is really strong and terrifying.
“Sir, is this the ruins?” Lilith observed the situation around her.
“kindness.”
Baal came back to his senses, nodded and said, “If I read it correctly, this should be a small artificial plane. Those gaps in the back may have been left by previous invaders.”
“Let’s go, let’s explore the surroundings first.”
……
About one kilometer from the south gate of the ancient city, under a soil slope, Barr and others are quietly hiding here.
Not far ahead, is a dilapidated city, the city gates are rotten, the surrounding city walls are covered with large and small potholes, and there are traces caused by some cold weapons, and several sections of the city wall have collapsed , it looks like there was a big battle here.
The area of the city is not small, with a radius of more than ten kilometers. From the entire layout, we can still see traces of prosperity. Several teams of steel guards over three meters high at the south gate are patrolling. Because of the barrier of the city wall, the internal situation is temporary. Still can’t see clearly.
“Sir, these guards are all ancient magic puppets.” Lilith whispered.
Barr nodded, not daring to be careless.
These magic puppets are still running smoothly after so many years, which shows that there are still some energy supply systems in this city that are still running, and there may be powerful weapons left over from ancient times. Although the relic level is only 30, these ancient technologies are difficult to predict and have to be guarded against.
“It looks like you can’t act rashly.” Baal secretly said.
“Lilith, bring a few archers in the team to investigate the situation around the city first, and the others stay in place for the time being.”
“Yes.”
“You guys, come with me.”
Lilith turned and left with the archers in the team.
This kind of magic puppet usually has its own magic induction system, and it is difficult for assassins to hide their traces in front of them. However, under normal circumstances, the sensing distance of these magic puppets around level 30 is not too far, and the bow and arrow book is naturally the best choice. Their field of vision is much wider than other occupations, and they are more suitable for reconnaissance.
Barr and the others waited quietly.
……
About two quarters of an hour.
Swish.
There was a slight noise in the grass behind him, and Baal turned his head to see that it was Lilith and the others who had returned.
“Sir.” Lilith lowered her body and walked to Baal’s side, and said softly, “There are four entrances to this city, one in each of the south, south, and northwest, and there are magic puppets at the entrances. Several sections of the city wall to the north have collapsed, and we found that There are a lot of undead creature activities in it, all of which are around 30 levels, and there are a lot of them, including a few rare elites.”
“Necro creature.” Baal muttered to himself.
The undead creatures are different from the undead family. They are not considered to be a member of the undead family. They are usually formed by creatures under the pollution of a high concentration of death breath, and some magic can also cause this effect. Unlike the high intelligence of the undead family, the undead creatures have no wisdom, they only have the instinct of predation, they are not afraid of death, and the death toxin they carry is also very troublesome.
But the most important thing right now is to figure out how much self-defense capability the city has left.
“Rava.” Barr snorted lowly
A cat-man assassin ran over from the back of the team. Barr gave a few words, and Lava nodded and left.
The advantage of magic puppets is that they are loyal and reliable, but the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, they are very rigid. They will only execute according to pre-set orders and lack flexibility. Baal needs to determine their alert range and response mechanism.
The magic defense system of such ancient ruins usually has two reaction mechanisms. One is the area-triggered type, that is to say, after the intruder is found, only the guards in a specific area will enter the fighting state; the other is the chain reaction type, which is more troublesome, as long as an intruder is found in one area, All defense systems will be activated, and all guards will all enter the combat state.
Whizzing.
Lava’s agility value is very high, and the Assassin class will have bonuses for movement speed and concealment. Lava’s steps are light and fast in stealth.
Five hundred meters from the city gate.
Lava slowed down and moved forward slowly. Although these ancient magic puppets are just ordinary templates, they are not weaker than the elite units in terms of strength, and now he still doesn’t know the opponent’s attack methods, so he needs to be more cautious.
Four hundred and fifty meters.
Four hundred meters.
……
When Lava stepped into the range of 300 meters, the four armored magic puppets standing at the gate of the city, with red light flashing in their eyes, instantly locked the sneaking Lava, pulled out the giant axe behind him, and rushed past.
“Find the intruder, activate the fighting stance!”
Several teams of silver armor guards who were patrolling on both sides of the city gate were stagnant, pulled out their weapons, and also turned around and rushed forward.
Kerala.
Directly above the city gate, two strange-looking metal machines also rose up from the gaps opened at the top of the city wall.
The bottom is a triangular bracket, fixed on a circular metal plate, the top is a semi-circular metal sphere, and two metal barrels stick out in front. In the middle of the two barrels, UU reading www. uukanshu. The com ring-shaped indicator lights are flashing in sequence, and about one-third of the time has been lit during the speech.
“Magic cannon!” Baal was shocked, and immediately turned around and said, “Bart, protect Lava to retreat, pay attention to the two magic cannons on the city gate, don’t let Lava be hit.”
After Bart heard this, he got up and rushed up.
The magic turret is a small city defense weapon. Although it needs to be charged before attacking, the frequency of attacks is not high, but its power is quite amazing. Of course, the lethality varies greatly depending on their model. However, the Assassin profession itself is anti-low blood, and even the model with the lowest lethality is quite dangerous to be hit.
“Ok?”
Rawa, who was sneaking, glanced at the guard who was chasing after him, turned and ran back.
The guards at the rear, the silver armor guards, were chasing after them, but they were slower than Lava in speed, and gradually the distance was pulled away. Lava glanced behind him, his face relaxed.
“Lava, watch out for the battery behind!” Baal’s voice came from the front.
“Hey, be careful, why is Bart here?”
When Lava heard the shout, he looked up and saw Bart rushing towards him.
Bart, who was running, glanced at the magic turret that was about to be fully charged on the left side of the city wall, his eyes narrowed, he grabbed the giant tower shield in his hand, and threw it hard behind Lava!
Huh!
Boom!
A loud bang came.
The rock tower shield was hit by the turret, and it exploded in mid-air instantly, sending a cloud of dust flying. The broken stones splashed around, leaving large and small potholes on the ground.
Lava, who was running, felt a pain in his back. Looking back, I also knew that something was wrong, so I accelerated and rushed forward, passing Bart in the blink of an eye.
