Boom!
Boom!
In the underground town, explosions came one after another. The dazzling flames appeared from time to time. The halo on a stone monument building had already disappeared.
On the top floor of a building, the hooked-nose man held a large backpack in his hand. With a vigorous leap, he flew more than ten meters and landed on another stone building.
“How could this grand and ancient city ruin only contain so few precious materials?”
“Or are the treasures in front of us all just a cover? Could there be other hidden treasures?”
He snorted. “I’ll find out when I’ve looted all the places. At least with what I have right now, it’s enough for my Matsumoto family to nurture one or two master-level Sprite Trainers. But if I can find the real treasure vault… like the one where all the stage rewards are stored, then…”
“Then our Matsumoto family will truly rise.”
At this moment, the halo of the stone monument building in front had completely disappeared. Under the bombardment of the Bursting Flame Bat’s fireballs, an opening was immediately blasted open, and precious light shot out from the opening.
Seeing this, the hooked-nose man’s gaze became much more intense.
The light was much brighter than the two treasure vaults he had broken through previously!
Suddenly…
A huge earthy yellow energy ball shot out from behind a building and directly hit the treasury building, causing the whole stone tablet to collapse. Some precious materials stored in the light ball barrier could be seen flying in all directions.
A swift brown figure suddenly flashed across the sky and reached out to grab the storage balls.
“Idiot!”
The mighty-looking Bursting Flame Bat suddenly flew out, its bat wings like blades passing through a long line of fire in the air.
Boom!
The brown figure, which had yet to land on the ground, was suddenly sent flying. It smashed through two stone monolith buildings with a rumble, and some of the storage balls scattered and landed on the ground.
Heavenly King Matsumoto rode a Hell Warhorse and arrived in front of the damaged treasure vault. He opened his palm and withdrew his domain power. Those storage balls flew up lightly and landed in his big backpack.
It was… one tenth full.
“Why are there so few? The glow of the treasures are clearly very bright!”
He continued to search, but the treasury was empty. Apart from some precious materials that had just been scattered, there was nothing else.
“Idiot!”
...
In the spacious secret room.
Yama Ghost King emerged from a certain wall and floated around in mid-air.
“You’re back.”
It was different from Butterfly. It couldn’t turn a physical body into an illusion, but when using the unique skill “Shadow Travel”, it could easily escape into the shadows.
It was very fast.
Su Hao took out his cell phone and checked the time.
The time Ah Yan took to make a round trip to the town and back was… and the distance between the two ends of the town was approximately… From this, one could calculate the approximate speed of Ah Yan’s Shadow Travel.
He felt that Ah Yan was a little excited. Did it get high from running? But you’re not Dumb Unicorn.
“Hu ~ Hu ~”
“You mean you picked up some treasures?”
“Hu ~!”
Ah Yan’s robe shook, and storage balls fell out noisily. Strands of light escaped from the high-level materials, illuminating the whole secret room.
And this… was all picked up?
The treasures picked up could pile up into a mountain?
You didn’t pick these under the nose of a certain hooked nose, did you? Cough, cough… Oh, you mean if it was on the ground and was left alone then it was fine to pick them up?
I guess you’re right.
Boom!
Boom!
The secret room suddenly shook, and dust rustled down, scaring Su Hao so much that he thought that Ah Yan had been discovered for picking up the treasure. But when he sensed carefully, the shaking didn’t come from above the secret room, but…
The whole underground was shaking!
He quickly went outside, and Butterfly and the others emerged from the stone tablet building.
He saw…
Boom!
A loud boom came from afar. The whole town was shaking, and many primordial ghost-element sprites flew out, crying and falling into panic.
“The explosion came from… the ground. What exactly happened up there?”
Su Hao hadn’t even found the exit!
At this moment, there was another violent quake. A few old stone monolith buildings collapsed from the quake, and rocks fell from the sky of the town.
Finally…
He saw a few huge rocks crashing down, and bright light beams were projected in from the outside.
In the light beam, dust shadows floated.
The sound of the explosion became louder, and the falling rocks became more frequent. The whole underground town looked like it was going to collapse completely.
“We should leave immediately!”
Su Hao got on on the Dumb Unicorn, Butterfly laid on top of his head, and the Dazed Crow circled around.
Before long, it rushed out of one of the holes and returned to the ground.
Su Hao opened his arms immediately and summoned Big Fat Bear, Bright Night Spirit, and Yama Ghost King, who were still underground.
Only then did he realize…
“Why is it so bright?”
The environment of Ghost City had always been dark and quiet. Now, apart from the explosions everywhere, the sunlight was also very dazzling, just like… the dark clouds that shrouded the sky of Ghost City…
“Don’t tell me the barrier was destroyed?”
Senior Wu had told him that it wasn’t impossible for them to destroy the Ghost City’s barrier, but the Union’s excavation of the ruins had always been relatively careful. They were just afraid that when destroying the barrier, they would also destroy certain treasures and legacies.
But now…
Su Hao already had an ominous feeling. The energy around was also very chaotic. He thought about it and immediately rushed towards the direction of the entrance.
Suddenly…
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
A series of signal bullets flew up and exploded in the sky, forming a few special red symbols.
***
He knew this alliance signal—there were enemies, aliens!
“What if aliens suddenly appeared during our exploration? Has this ever happened in history?”
Su Hao had asked Senior Wu this question before.
Senior Wu replied, “Yes, that would be a very critical situation. The only thing we can and must do is… delay the enemy until reinforcements arrive!”
“Everything we do should be for the Union, for our families!”
At that moment, Su Hao could easily hide himself and wait for reinforcements, but…
Su Hao looked up and saw that in the air, a Sprite Trainer from the Union was being chased by Sprite Trainers from an alien tribe.
The Union’s Sprite Trainer rode a Gargoyle Dragon.
The people from the tribe were also riding Gargoyle Dragons!
But the appearance was very different. The Gargoyle Dragon of the tribe had a long tail, its wings were scarlet red, and it let out a sharp roar.
Su Hao looked and only hesitated for a moment…
“Scr*w it!”
At his command, the Dazed Crow, which had long been ready for action, flew out like an arrow released from a bow. In the blink of an eye, it caught up to the scarlet Gargoyle Dragon. Butterfly, which had grabbed onto Dazed Crow, also casted an illusion without any hesitation.
Big Fat Bear also blasted out one Lightning Cannon to assist.
In just an instant, the Dazed Crow seized its opportunity. A blazing red flaming blade slashed down, and the scarlet Gargoyle was blasted down.
“Thank you.” The person who was saved felt a lingering fear in his heart as he hurriedly lowered his flying altitude.
At this moment, his pupils constricted. “Little…”
“Squawk–”
The Dazed Crow underneath the sun was sent flying with a single strike. Its flames dissipated and its Flaming Feather Gown was ripped apart, and the broken feathers floated in the air.
The whole crow was shot to the ground.
On the interface, the Dazed Crow had already suffered moderate injuries!
A Gargoyle Dragon with an especially large body, a ferocious look, and four arms appeared in Su Hao’s vision.
On the Gargoyle Dragon stood a figure.
Dressed in the unique attire of an alien tribe, he looked over. The Gargoyle Dragon’s faint eyes also fell. The next moment, its scarlet wings flapped, turning into a grayish red shadow that pounced towards him.
It was a monarch rank Gargoyle Dragon!
Su Hao’s heart suddenly shrank. Before his brain could react, he watched as the grayish red shadow grew larger.
Boom!
The ground caved in, and the Gargoyle Dragon’s thick arm hit the center of the pit, sending rocks flying and dust filling the air.
However, he was gone.
The Tribe Heavenly King frowned and looked somewhere. There, a black shadow was fleeing into the distance at an extremely fast speed. After fleeing for a while, it finally couldn’t hold on any longer and ejected its content.
People and sprites appeared together from thin air.
The Four-Armed Gargoyle Dragon roared and spread its wings again.
At this moment, the Yama Ghost King, who was still unfamiliar with transporting people, couldn’t escape into the shadows a second time.
But Su Hao had already returned to his senses. He was riding on the back of the Dumb Unicorn. “Change of plans, run!”
The Dumb Unicorn suddenly rushed out.. The mist turned into a cloud as it lifted Big Fat Bear and the Bright Night Spirit and flew into the distance.
