Act 57 The King of the Underground (8)
In fact, there were almost no trophies in the previous battles, and the experience gained was just some leadership. In fact, Brando now found that he had little benefit from killing these monsters below the black iron level - to be precise, below level 15.
This is exactly the same as his experience in the game.
But he found a ring among the wreckage, an ogre ring. In the Amber Sword, the equipment prefixed with Ogre can improve the strength of the wearer. In fact, this is a series of equipment, with levels widely distributed from the lowest level 20 to the highest level 70 - lower Some are named 'ghouls', while the higher ones mostly use the prefix 'dragon'.
This ogre ring is the lowest level among them, level 20, but it is far beyond Brando's imagination. A level 15 monster has less than one thousandth chance of producing a level 20 magic item in the game.
Of course, the highest level on their drop list is level 25 armor, and the chance is only a few ten thousandths, or according to players, there is no chance at all.
But according to Brando's usual dark hands, when he got the ring, he couldn't help but look at Akane a few more times, wondering if this was also the legendary red-handed halo bearer?
Brando checked the attributes. This ogre ring increases the wearer's output power by 5%. Brando's power has an energy level of 73.4. Because of the implanted Ghost Rider crystal and power burst, the output power is approximately one Hundreds, for him, this thing can increase the output power by about 5 levels, which is better than nothing.
But he already had the Wind Queen Ring, the Fire Ring, the Secondary Snake Ring and the Warrior Ring on his hand, taking up the positions of all four rings. Brando thought about it and didn't bother to change it, so he simply threw the ring to the red-haired man behind him. girl.
Akane took the ring and was slightly stunned: "...I...I have no power again." She whispered in confusion.
"That's only temporary," Brando replied: "It won't take long to recover."
"Really?" Amber eyes suddenly lit up.
Brando looked back at the girl, slightly silent, but finally nodded, "When have I ever lied to someone, of course it's true?"
Akane had a very happy look on her face.
But the red-haired girl had a unique female sensitivity and noticed Brando's hesitation. She thought for a moment, blinked and said, "Is it related to the blood of God, sir?"
Brando nodded.
"It's nothing actually.
"Xian was not worried after hearing this. She smiled slightly: "I am more worried about losing my power than becoming a monster, because at least in that way, I can still fight for the lord. "
"Shh-" Brando raised a finger to his lips and gestured behind him.
The miner was still hanging far behind, following the two of them. Of course, he did not hear the conversation between them.
Akane nodded and put the ring on her index finger, as if she was protecting some treasure.
"Actually, you don't have to be so careful. This thing is not valuable, it's just a slightly magical item." Brando couldn't help but remind him.
But Qian smiled and replied: "Yes, but as a gift, the meaning is quite different."
Brando was stunned.
The girl has changed the subject. She looked at the surrounding rock walls, lowered her voice and asked, "Sir, do you think the earthquake has anything to do with these monsters?"
Brando nodded.
"Did the earthquake cause these monsters to emerge from the ground?" Qian asked again.
"I'm afraid just the opposite."
"On the contrary?" The mercenary girl was slightly startled: "How could such a weak monster cause an earthquake?"
"Weak?" Brando shook his head, that was only temporary. If there is really a silver legacy behind this mission, then there is no telling what they will encounter later.
With this idea in mind, they gradually penetrated into the fourth layer of the mining area.
Soon, Brando found Mahan's body at a corner. Not far from the steward's left hand direction, there were two mutilated rock leopards. They died with obvious sword wounds. Apparently, Mahan had fought with these beasts before his death, but he could not escape death in the end. .
Brando checked the opponent's wounds, and found that the fatal wound was on the neck - according to his judgment, Mahan should be at least black iron level, but the wounds left by the attacker were very clean, and he was obviously killed in one blow.
This requires that the attacker's strength far exceeds that of the attacked.
This shows that there are stronger monsters here.
Not only Brando, but Qian also saw this. She said nothing and her face became solemn.
When the miner saw the steward's body, he fell to the ground as soft as chaff. He was frightened. In his mind, these foremen were usually aloof beings, but they turned into cold corpses, which made him suddenly feel like he would die at any time.
He lost control of his emotions almost immediately and couldn't help shouting. Brando had no choice but to use the secondary snake-shaped ring to point at him to paralyze the guy to prevent him from attracting more monsters.
Finally, they waited until the miner calmed down before they could move on. Brando observed the surrounding environment and decisively chose a tunnel to the north. If he remembered correctly, that should be the place where he separated from Ke Wen and others in his memory.
But this time, not long after the three men advanced, two groups of rock leopards surrounded them from all directions. These rock beasts came quietly in the shadows, as if there were more and more of them. Brando used up two swords one after another, but he gradually began to realize that these rock leopards seemed to be endless here.
Akane noticed this almost at the same time. She reminded in a low voice from behind: "We have to find a way, sir. Let's find a way to get out of here."
Brando nodded, but his plan was slightly different from that of the mercenary girl. He knew that an ordinary person would probably have to sit back and wait for death, while a mercenary with some ability would probably make the same choice as Yu Qian.
But he is different, he is a player.
Such a steady stream of 'monster spawning' is also an extremely abnormal phenomenon in the game. He immediately calmed down and looked for the leaders hidden among the low-level monsters based on his own experience.
Sure enough, he soon saw a cat with a smooth surface like black jade flashing through the darkness. Although it was just a glimpse, Brando had already identified that the other party was at least a black iron mid-level. strength.
That's not black jade, but obsidian——
This was the guy he was looking for. The young man immediately slashed through the minions blocking the way with his sword and chased after him.
But what surprised Brando was that in fact he had just shown hostility - the thing's reaction was surprisingly fast. Before he could swing the sword in his hand, the black panther had already turned around and disappeared. In the dark.
The Obsidian Rock Leopard is extremely fast, even far beyond its expected strength. Brando's charging skills hadn't even begun to brew, but the opponent had already disappeared without a trace after turning a corner.
Not even just the beast, Brando immediately noticed that the low-level rock leopards around him receded like a tide. He just stopped in shock, but all the monsters around him disappeared.
How is this going?
Brando would not think that this was because his domineering spirit broke out and scared these monsters to retreat. Elemental creatures have no emotions at all, they only have basic logical judgment capabilities.
The mine tunnel became empty——
"What is that?" Qian and the miner both saw the fleeting monster. As soon as Brando stopped, they immediately caught up and asked.
"Head beast."
Brando replied: "The head beast refers to the leader of the beast group, but here it is really the eyes of the summoner. Whether it is an elf messenger, a beast summoner, or a necromancer, no matter how powerful the spell is, Nor can one person control an army. They need lower-level spies to control those summoned objects that only have the lowest intelligence——"
"For example, lower-level corpse witches and skeletons."
"It's the same here," he pointed to the depths of the mine and said, "I just don't know how big this summoning network is. If the black jade-like leopard just now is the top layer of this network, then it would be easier to handle."
"What if not?"
"That would be troublesome."
Brando said as he walked inside.
But Qian seemed a little worried. She felt that everything underground was weird. Although it seemed that the Lord knew what was going on, she didn't like the feeling of being shrouded in the unknown.
She thought for a moment and couldn't help but said: "Sir, let's go back to the third floor first. Isn't our goal to find the guard captain and control the silver mine? Why bother with these monsters here?"
Brando shook his head: "It was indeed like that at the beginning, but Qian, it's different now."
"It's different again?" Qian was stunned.
Brando nodded, a silver heritage is worth much more than an entire silver mine. Just like trading a gold mine with Brando for the golden apples in his hand, Brando would never do such a stupid thing.
But he didn't explain much and walked inside. However, he didn't take two steps before he softly let out a sound of "eh".
"What's wrong?" Qian asked from behind.
"Come and see this." Brando replied after standing at the corner.
The red-haired girl limped up with the Thunder Spear, but as soon as she turned the corner, she froze. After turning the corner, there is a quite vast space, but at this moment it seems as if it has experienced a terrible storm.
To be precise, under the dim light of the lighting crystal, there were fragments of the previous rock leopard in the mine, even distributed among these gray rocks, and some black jade-like fragments were shining.
Needless to say, these were the remains of another kind of monster.
Brando raised his head and looked into the depths of the cave and replied: "It seems that someone got there before us."
"He's a great guy," he said.
