Chapter 127 Silver Ancient Coin, Intermediate Magic Crystal

Cao Xing gave the order directly: "Go, kill this soul-eating monster!"

At the same time, he had condensed a large ice spear and shot it out suddenly.

Hilda then sprayed out a spider web, and melee fighters like Assam and Braum rushed forward one after another.

【-twenty four】

Cao Xing's big ice spear hit first, but because of the huge level gap, it didn't cause much damage.

However, the Soul Eater was suddenly attacked and let out an angry cry.

"Hiss! Hiss!"

Its sound seemed to attract more Soul Eaters.

There were more crawling noises in the passage ahead.

Cao Xing's eyes focused, "Quick battle, quick decision!"

After hearing this, all the recruited creatures entered into burst mode.

Assam raised his sword and shouted.

"In the name of justice, kill!"

Swish! Swish, swish, swish!
【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

After four sword strikes, the Soul Eater's defense value dropped significantly!

"hiss!"

The Soul Eater felt the pain and swung its two pairs of claws, pouncing towards Assam.

"Crack!"

However, the blow only broke Assam's two layers of shield.

Like this Aurora Shield, Assam has one more layer, and then another layer of [Holy Light Blessing]

Seeing this scene, Cao Xing was delighted.

"Hahaha, everyone has four layers of shields. Are you afraid?"

next moment.

The crowd's attack has come like a storm.

Andrew's bear paw, Rhaenys's arrow, and Hilda's blood poison spit.

At the same time, Sarah appeared silently in the darkness and slashed down with a knife.

【-twenty four】

【-573! 】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

A wave of concentrated fire directly took away nearly 4000 of the Soul Eater's health.

Seeing those exaggerated damage numbers, Ji Xinyue next to him exclaimed in shock.

"So...so awesome..."

These injuries are numbers that are out of reach for her at this stage.

At the same time, Ji Xinyue felt somewhat relieved.

Fortunately, I did not rashly enter the underground palace.

Otherwise, any soul-eating monster could tear her into pieces.

At the same time, Ji Xinyue was even more grateful that she contacted Cao Xing.

During the battle, Ji Xinyue suddenly said gratefully, "Thank you, Master Cao Xing..."

Cao Xing was stunned, as if he didn't know why she thanked him.

However, his attention was quickly drawn to the battle in front of him.

The Soul Eater wanted to break out, but was surrounded by three big guys: Braum, Assam and Andrew.

Sarah suddenly appeared in the darkness and slashed again.

【-3754! 】

An exaggerated damage number appeared, directly ending the life of the soul-eater.

[Your territory member: Sarah Blade Dance killed Soul Eater lv26, gaining 520 experience points]

[Combatants gain experience points: 260]

...

It took them ten seconds to defeat a level 26, stage monster, showing their powerful explosive power.

Cao Xing nodded. "One monster gives more than 200 experience points, not bad."

Meanwhile, as their battle came to an end.

The Ascalonian undead woman was also released from her spiritual pressure.

She asked in a low voice: "Outsiders, why did you break into the underground palace of our Ascalon people?"

Cao Xing was speechless and said, "Don't you understand the situation?"

"Your palace has been invaded by soul-eating monsters, and your companions are almost being eaten by these monsters."

"Then your Lieutenant Karlhan asked me to come in and rescue you."

After hearing this, the Ascalon woman shouted angrily: "These damn soul-eating monsters! The Duke will kill them all!"

Cao Xing spread his hands and said, "Don't count on your Lord Duke. He has been targeted by a soul-devouring demon and can't even protect himself now."

Hearing this, the angry expression on the Ascalon woman's face froze, and the spirit that had a piece bitten off was trembling slightly.

"The Soul Devouring Demon... turns out to be this kind of monster..."

"Oh my God, the Duke is in danger!"

"No, all the Ascalon Undead in the entire underground palace are in danger!"

The anger on her face gradually turned into fear and impatience.

Cao Xing was speechless again: "Okay, calm down first, aren't we here yet?"

Hearing this, the trembling soul of the female undead gradually calmed down, and then she looked at Cao Xing blankly.

"We have accepted the commission from you undead. We will go to the four temples to rescue the other undead of Ascalon and the Duke of Paladin."

After hearing this, the female ghost said excitedly: "I can go with you!"

However, Cao Xing shook his head and said, "Why are you joining us? Are you going to be treated as a blood bag by the Soul Devourer?"

Cao Xing has already seen that these undead spirits are useless in front of the Soul Eater, and will instead be used as tools to recover blood.

The female undead was scolded by Cao Xing and stood there at a loss.

"me……"

Cao Xing waved his hand and said, "Okay, you can't help much here, go out and meet up with Karlhan and the others first."

"I remember that you undeads all have the ability to penetrate walls. Go out from here and walk two hundred meters forward. There is a secret room."

"Go directly into the secret room and then enter the secret passage, and you can leave this underground palace."

After Cao Xing finished speaking, the female undead nodded.

Then, she bowed to Cao Xing, floated in the air, and quickly left.

A new system prompt appears.

[Successfully rescued 1 Ascalon Undead, the mission progress has been updated. 】

[New task: rescue lone Ascalon Undead, number rescued: 1]

(Tip: The more Ascalon Undead you rescue, the more rewards you can get from Lieutenant Karlhan.)
...

When Cao Xing saw the system prompt, his eyes lit up.

"Oh? If you rescue more undead, you can get extra rewards?"

That's good, then.

Cao Xing nodded, then looked into the coffin.

What made him feel fortunate was that the female ghost did not take anything from the coffin before she left.

He walked forward silently and collected all the black bags in the coffins.

[Get Ascalon's burial bag*3]

There were three more bags of burial objects. Cao Xing was delighted and clicked to open them directly.

[Open successfully]

[Get 4 Brass Ancient Coins]

[Get Silver Ancient Coin*1]

[Get Magic Stone*8]

[Obtain rotten flax seeds*21]

[Obtain Intermediate Magic Crystal*1]

[Get large gold nuggets (300g)*2]

[Obtain Mithril Ingot*3]

[Get the book: Winter Flame]

...

"Huh? The things in these three bags seem to be more advanced?"

"What are ancient silver coins and intermediate magic crystals?"

Out of curiosity, Cao Xing checked the properties of these two things.

[Ancient Silver Coin: An extremely ancient coin that is no longer in circulation on the continent. It has a space magic mark engraved on it.]

(After collecting 100 silver ancient coins, you can exchange them for an ancient silver treasure chest, which can reveal mid-level ancient weapons, production blueprints, or other extinct items.)
...

[Intermediate Magic Crystal: A magic crystal containing 500 units of energy, which can provide more energy for machinery or other equipment. ]

(Note: The energy reserve of an ordinary magic stone is 100 units.)
...

Cao Xing's eyes suddenly showed enlightenment. "So that's why. Ancient weapons are also divided into grades, and the ancient weapons and blueprints that can be obtained from the treasure chests exchanged for silver are also of higher grades."

As for the intermediate magic stone, it can be regarded as a large battery.

"I remember that in Marita's shop, a mid-level ancient weapon was sold for 50 crowns. If we can find one, we will make a lot of money!"

Cao Xing thought happily.

Then he came to the body of the Soul Eater again.

These monsters were indeed evil creatures. After death, they gradually turned into a ball of black gas and dissipated.

And where it dissipated, a few materials were left behind.

Cao Xing put it away directly.

[Get sharp claws (green) * 2]

[Get evil spirit dust (white) * 1]

[Obtain Intermediate Spirit Book*1]

...

Before Cao Xing could check the properties of these things, three or four soul-eating monsters had already appeared in the passage ahead.

"It seems that the noise from the battle just now attracted other soul-eating monsters?"

After a quick glance, I found that they all had similar attributes to the soul-eating monster in front.

All the men were instantly on alert.

Cao Xing gave the order directly: "Go ahead and kill them."

next moment.

Assam, Bron, and Andrew, three melee fighters, rushed forward again.

Hilda and Renis began to launch long-range attacks.

Including Cao Xing, who was constantly condensing large ice spears and using ice cones to cause damage or freezing effects to these soul-eating monsters.

The two sides soon came into contact with each other.

Although the attacks of these soul-eating monsters are very strong, the creatures recruited by Cao Xing have stronger defenses.

They all have three layers of holy shields on their bodies. Snap! Snap!
Layers of shields shattered.

Their attacks also fell on the Soul Eater, causing high damage.

【-473! 】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

"Hiss! Hiss!"

The Soul Eaters let out screams.

Liu Muxue held a shield and guarded Cao Xing.

Everyone had something to do, except Ji Xinyue who was standing there with a blank look on her face.

She asked tentatively, "Boss Cao Xing, do you need me to do anything?"

Cao Xing smiled and said, "No need, just stay with Mu Xue by my side and protect me."

Her level was too low. When she fought with those soul-eating monsters, they could kill her with just one claw.

Liu Muxue also chuckled and said, "Sister Xinyue, just stand behind us."

"Yeah!" Ji Xinyue looked at the two of them gratefully.

now.

Cao Xing's six generals fought against four soul-eating monsters.

The damage numbers are floating up one by one.

It took the Soul Eaters five seconds to break the three layers of holy shields on them.

The price was that the Soul Eater's health was reduced to below 80%.

At the same time, Sarah in the darkness continued to swing the Shadow Blade, causing horrific damage.

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-3874! 】

【-twenty four】

And Cao Xing also condensed the [Ice Arrow Rain].

In an instant, group attacks and damage appeared.

In addition, Hilda's blood poison had already been sprayed on these monsters.

The Soul Eaters suffered various attacks in an instant, especially Hilda's blood poison, which caused them extremely terrible pain.

"Hiss! Hiss!"

The Soul Eater seemed to know that the humans in front of it were not easy to mess with.

They stood up at the same time, and actually wanted to use [Soul-Dispersing Iron Claws] on everyone!
And at this moment, Hilda let out a [Soul Scream].

"ah!!"

The terrifying screams echoed in the corridor, and everyone's eardrums felt a sharp pain.

And that group of soul-eating monsters were struck by lightning!
All attack actions are interrupted and their defense values ​​are greatly reduced.

As usual, Cao Xing praised, "Xierda, you did a good job."

Xierda said disdainfully: "Tsk... just a bunch of lowly creatures!"

Braum held up a huge shield and began to resist the attacks of the two Soul Eaters alone.

After being attacked several times, a shocking burst of cold air suddenly erupted from his body.

"puff!"

The temperature in this underground palace is [-43℃]

At this moment, the temperature dropped to [-47℃]

And what surprised Cao Xing was.

The [Frost Magic Shield] on Assam, Andrew and others also emitted a burst of cold air.

Several balls of cold air burst out at the same time, as if triggering some kind of chemical reaction.

Everyone only felt a gust of cold wind blowing past.

The four soul-eating monsters were all frozen in place.

He was literally frozen in place, with a layer of frost even on the surface of his body.

Cao Xing's eyes lit up, "There is such an effect?"

He glanced at the status of these soul-eating monsters.

[Status: 3 layers of bleeding, 1 layer of natural mark, 10 layers of blood poison, 1 layer of deep freezing (remaining freezing time: 5 seconds)]

"There's actually five seconds of control time!"

Cao Xing was very surprised.

Such a long control time can determine the outcome of a battle!
The next moment, he directly ordered: "Output at full strength!"

Swish!
Sarah also came out of hiding and started slashing continuously.

【-twenty four】

At the same time, Hilda was also spewing out venom.

The layers of blood poison on the four soul-eating monsters were stacking up crazily.

The damage numbers above their heads almost started to fill the screen.

The amount of blood also poured out like water.

For an enemy that cannot move, it is simply a sitting duck.

After five seconds, the Soul Eater was released from the deep freeze state.

And their health has been reduced to less than 10%.

There will be no suspense in the next battle.

Ten seconds later, all four Soul Eaters fell down.

A system prompt appears.

[Your territory member: Renis Hawkeye killed Soul Eater lv27 and gained 540 experience points]

[Combatants gain experience points: 270]

[Members of your territory...]

Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction.

The four Soul Eaters provided him with more than a thousand experience points, which was very good.

You know, even to upgrade from level 11 to level 12, it only requires 2 experience points.

However, since this game does not have a team function, Ji Xinyue cannot share the experience of Cao Xing and others.

Unless she, like Xia Yanni, was incorporated into Cao Xing's territory.

The method Fang Long and his team used before was that a group of people besieged a monster, and then beat it to a low health state, allowing Fang Long to enjoy the experience alone.

At this moment, Braum, who was emitting icy breath, laughed triumphantly, "Haha! Have you tasted my power?"

"To my friends I am a gentle snowflake, to my enemies I am an avalanche!"

Cao Xing smiled and said, "Bron, keep your voice down, don't attract those soul-eating monsters."

Bron touched his head embarrassedly, and then whispered: "I'm sorry, Lord, the power you gave me is really too magical!"

"Bron is so excited!"

His ice blood combined with the frost shield produced a hidden effect, so Braum was very excited.

Cao Xing smiled, then came to the place where the soul-eating monsters died and picked up the things that fell on the ground.

[Get sharp claws (green) * 8]

[Get evil spirit dust (white) * 15]

[Get a medium-sized spirit book*1]

[Obtain Medium Agility Book*1]

...

Now he had time to check the properties of the two new materials.

[Sharp hook (green): An extremely sharp hook. Give it to a professional blacksmith and it can be made into a catapult hook device or a rope hook trap.]

(Note: The claw, which contains the breath of the soul-devouring demon, will cause an additional 30% damage when attacking spirits.)
...

[Evil Spirit Dust (White): Has a faint smell of evil spirits and is an additive material for certain alchemy techniques.]

(Note: Some evil alchemists will buy a large amount of evil spirit dust, maybe you can take the opportunity to sell it at a high price.)
...

Cao Xing's eyes showed a look of realization, "These two things have many uses."

"Just this time, I plan to go to those villages to see if I can bring back a blacksmith."

He nodded with satisfaction and put all these things into his backpack.

"Let's go, keep going."

Bron was the first to respond, "Bron, attack!"

The bald man strode ahead.

Everyone followed him along the way.

We walked along the corridor for about four hundred meters.

Soon, they arrived at the second room.

All the coffins here have been opened, and there are dense claw marks on them.

Obviously, all the undead here have been eaten.

Cao Xing didn't think much about it.

Then he asked his men to start searching the bag of relics inside the coffin.

Spent two minutes searching.

Assam and the others searched all the coffins in the room, then handed the black bags in their hands to Cao Xing.
[Get Ascalon's burial bag*6]

Another 6 bags, Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction.

There should be a lot of good things in here.

However, he did not open it immediately, but decided to wait until the mission of this palace was completed before opening it all.

When the time comes, open all the bags of burial objects at once.

That scene must be very cool!
Cao Xing thought happily, and then led the team forward.

This corridor is very long, which also indirectly shows that the underground palace of Ascalon is really large.

We continued to move forward for about one kilometer, during which we experienced about three small-scale battles and killed a total of 16 soul-eaters.

Cao Xing also obtained 8 bags of burial objects.

Moreover, along the way, Cao Xing also opened three coffins and rescued three more Ascalon undead.

They are now almost at the depths of the underground palace.

Ji Xinyue walked while looking at the map in her hand, pointing out the direction for everyone.

At this time, she reminded softly: "Turn another corner ahead and you will find the Shield Temple."

Cao Xing nodded.

The Shield Temple was the first place he wanted to go.

Everyone slowed down and approached cautiously.

At the end of the corridor, Cao Xing discovered a passage gate that was two meters wide and three meters high.

Outside the passage, there was a sound of dense crawling.

"Rustle...rustle..."

Cao Xing made a gesture and the team stopped again.

Everyone stood still, maintaining a silent posture.

Cao Xing slowly approached the gate of the passage, wanting to see the scene inside.

He discovered that behind the passage, there seemed to be a hall, and on the right side of the hall, there was a glowing stone door.

Behind that stone door is the location of the [Shield Temple].

However, the scene before him made Cao Xing's pupils shrink suddenly!
