Start a Core Pod Chapter 213

  Chapter 213 Beast Temple

   "Whoah, kinsman!!"

  A small black bat jumped straight up, hugged Duanmu Huai's face with one paw, and jumped directly on his head.

   "Come and save me! Come and save me!"

   "Okay, okay, I see, don't worry..."

   Reluctantly stretched out his hand to take away the little bat that jumped on his face, Duanmuhuai also said with a wry smile.

The task of going to the Eternal City to find the secret treasure was not as simple as Duanmuhuai thought. When he went to a deeper level according to the map given by Lani, he discovered that there was actually a huge underground cavity underneath. In this way, there is still a shining starry sky that looks like a 3D projection in this underground cavity, which immediately reminds Duanmuhuai of what Augis reported to him before, so he also immediately contacted Augis, and the latter is indeed there. Here, and if Duanmu Huai's guess is correct, she is in the Eternal City.

  However, Augis was unable to come out to join Duanmuhuai. She said that the whole city was closed and she couldn't find a way out, so Duanmuhuai asked her to wait patiently for a while, and then figure out a way by herself.

After that, Duanmu Huai met with the werewolf warriors waiting here, and only then did he learn that the Eternal City was sealed by a man named "Lataen". Only by defeating him and breaking his seal, Only then can the Eternal City reappear.

   So that means that Duanmuhuai will have to go to Lataen and defeat him before he can go to the Eternal City. And Lataen is currently located in the Red Lion City of Gelid. As long as he can enter the Red Lion City, challenge and defeat Lataen, he can go to the Eternal City.

   Well, no surprise, eight out of ten missions the player receives are of this nature.

  And when Duanmuhuai came to Galid, what he saw was a scarlet land, which immediately reminded Duanmuhuai that Bambi told himself that the temple she was in was such a place.

   Before Duanmuhuai could talk to Bambi via telepathy, he saw a black bat crying and pounced on Duanmuhuai's face.

   After all, it has been quite a while, Bambi has been hiding in the temple, but she has been wronged badly.

  At any rate, Augis and Lorena were still able to walk around, but Bambi hid in the corner of the temple alone, not daring to move. One can imagine that feeling was definitely not good.

  With bats leading the way, Duanmuhuai naturally didn't have to waste time looking for directions, so he also put Lataen aside and picked up his lovely little princess first.

  After all, how can an uncle with a beard compare to a cutie with a sweet voice?

   Along the way, Bambi has been telling Duanmu Huai about his experiences.

After being teleported to the temple, Bambi found that there was a huge guy in the temple who was wrapped in black cloth. At first, Bambi wanted to say hello to him, but he didn't expect that guy to say nothing directly. As soon as he said that, he roared and called. Bambi ran away in a hurry, but ran out of the temple and found a bird-headed monster standing outside. As a result, Bambi had to sneak back to the temple and hide quietly in the shadow of the temple ceiling. Did not dare to take a breath.

   Well, it really looks exactly like a bat.

   "That black guy is really weird. It stays in the temple all the time, doesn't go out, mutters all day long and doesn't know what it's talking about. And it goes crazy at every turn... It's scary!"

  Bambi didn't dare to speak or move, so she had to summon a group of bats to go out to explore the way instead of herself.

   As a result... there are not many living people in this place, but there are many monsters.

A dog with a head as big as a dinosaur, a crow with few hairs, and a dragon wriggling on the ground covered in corruption... Bambi's bat colony was almost completely eaten by these monsters, and it turned out to be so small Two or three of the cats managed to escape the attack and ran to the border.

   Poor Bambi's little heart is already riddled with holes.

  This can't be helped, after all, Bambi's consciousness is connected with these bats. Think about it, you are flying leisurely in the air, and suddenly a big dog's head pops up behind you, and it just bites at you...

   That's definitely not good for the heart.

Duanmu Huai heard about the situation here from the werewolf warriors. Galid was not like this before, but later in the Shattered War, the Valkyrie and Lataen fought here. A scarlet corruption was placed on Tarn's forehead, and then both sides were hurt. The Valkyrie ran away, and Ratan and Galid were also infected by the scarlet corruption.

   Right now, the land is scarlet, and various deformed creatures emerge in endlessly, which is caused by scarlet corruption. Even Ratan himself was infected, and eventually lost his mind, and wandered around the Broken Battlefield in an inhuman appearance.

  Hmm... If it wasn't for the fragments of the world, Duanmu Huai would have doubted whether the Valkyrie was a believer or a chosen one of the God of Plague.

  It's really shameless to release biological and chemical weapons if you can't beat it.

Just as Bambi complained, Duanmuhuai saw all kinds of deformed creatures along the way, dogs with tyrannosaurus rex, crows bigger than trucks, oh... and a group of unknown creatures centipede man with long legs.

  To be honest, even Duanmuhuai, who has experienced many battles, felt his scalp tingle when he saw the group of centipede people with centipede-like bodies and dozens of legs squirming on both sides of their bodies and rushing towards him.

   This thing is much more disgusting than the Nurgle beast.

   Fortunately, although the monsters here are disgusting, their combat effectiveness is not very strong. Except for Milfie who was scared into Duanmuhuai's arms and dared not come out, there is nothing special to be concerned about. On the contrary, the monster guarding the entrance of the temple took a lot of effort from Duan Muhuai... The flying guy is just hard to deal with.

   "Boom!"

  Accompanied by the bird head guard crashing down, Duanmuhuai also came to the gate of the temple. He stretched out his hand, pushed open the door, and walked into the temple. Immediately afterwards, a petite black figure jumped down from the ceiling, hugged Duanmu Huai's neck, twirled around, and got into his arms.

   "Family, you are finally here!"

   "Well, here I come, are you okay, little guy."

  Looking at Bambi in front of him, Duanmuhuai also smiled and stretched out his hand to touch her little head, and Bambi immediately complained.

   "It's not good at all. It's dirty and smelly. There's nowhere to take a shower, and there's nothing to eat. I'm starving. Why don't you let me have a bite?"

   "I'll take you to a big meal later..."

  However, at this moment, Duanmuhuai suddenly heard an angry roar from inside the temple, and then, he saw a huge black shadow rushing towards him. At this moment, Duanmu Huai did not hesitate, grabbed Bambi, quickly jumped back, and exited the temple.

"boom!!"

  The moment Duanmu Huai just left with his front feet, the huge black shadow with his back feet rushed over. It smashed open the thick gate of the temple, and stared at Duanmu Huai fiercely.

   "...Little thief... How dare you appear in front of me!"

"what are you saying?"

   Duanmuhuai frowned, then put Bambi behind him, motioned for her to take Milfy back, and at the same time grabbed the warhammer in his hand.

   "I don't know a monster like you."

   "...the breath of death runes..."

  At this moment, another figure came out from behind the huge monster. It was a warrior wearing a strange double helmet armor. He also stared at Duanmu Huai with a cold expression, and raised the weapon in his hand.

   "It was you who stole the fragment of the death rune?"

"Um?"

Hearing this, Duanmuhuai was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that he had obtained the Black Knife brand in the Heidao Graveyard before, and according to Roger, this brand was made by using some kind of ritual to remove the fragments of the dead runes Power poured into it... and so on.

  Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai stared at the person and the monster in front of him.

   "Are you the black sword Marikas?"

   "I will never let Doomed Death be stolen again!"

  The tall monster stared at Duanmu Huai and said coldly.

   "Return the fragments! I will spare you!"

   "Here's what I'm going to say, monster."

  Duanmuhuai clenched the Thunder Hammer tightly, his eyes condensed slightly.

   "Hand over your doomed death, and I can give you a happy death."

   "You don't want to succeed."

  At this moment, the warrior in the strange double-headed armor strode forward. He clenched his long sword and pointed at Duanmu Huai.

   "I——D, never allow such evil deeds, die, sinner!"

   "This is what I want to say! You can't bear the price of defying the will of the trial court!"

   As soon as the words fell, Duanmuhuai gripped the hammer tightly and charged towards the warrior in front of him!

"drink!"

   Facing Duanmuhuai's attack, the soldier was not afraid at all. Holding a big sword in his hand, he stepped forward, swung the big sword in his hand, and slashed towards Duanmuhuai. On the other hand, Duanmuhuai clenched the warhammer with his backhand and threw it forward forcefully. The roaring thunder hammer hit the slashing sword, knocking it over in an instant, and then Duanmuhuai rushed forward suddenly, as if a rage It slammed into the warrior's body like a rhinoceros, knocking him into the air.

"Roar--!"

At this moment, the beast covered with a cloak also roared. He raised his right hand and swung out a claw. The sharp wind of the knife roared and tore the ground, hitting Duanmu Huai's body. The beast jumped up, and stabbed Duanmu Huai's body with the dagger-like dagger in his hand.

"it's useless!"

  Accompanied by Duanmuhuai's roar, invisible power gathered in front of him, turned into a raging stormy sea and rushed towards the huge beast, blowing it away. At this moment, the soldier also stood up again, rolled to Duanmuhuai's feet, and stabbed hard at his back with the big sword in his hand.

   "Clang!"

  The big sword slashed at the outer layer of the power armor, and then was directly bounced away. At the same time, Duanmu Huai swung his right hand suddenly, and the explosive thunder hammer swept across the soldier's head.

"boom!"

The next moment, the soldier's body flew high and hit the ground heavily. Before he got up again, Duan Muhuai stepped forward, and immediately trampled his body into meat paste. .

   "Pfft!"

The gold and silver armor was twisted and broken like a fragile insect shell under one step, but at the same time, Duanmuhuai suddenly felt that in his armor pocket, the brand of the black knife placed inside seemed to sense What, there was a strange fluctuation at the beginning, and then, a bone-piercing ice force that seemed to freeze even the soul rushed up along his feet, all the way to the back of his left hand. When Duanmuhuai looked down, he saw half a strange ring on the back of his hand.

   It looks like a semicircle, and outside of this semicircle, several tentacles-like twisted marks emerge.

   At the same time, a system prompt appeared in front of Duanmu Huai's eyes.

  【Obtained the curse mark of death (death rune fragment)】

I see!

Seeing this, Duanmuhuai's thoughts changed suddenly, and he understood the situation. It was obvious that Lani stole half of the death runes, and the other half was put on this soldier - it seems that he was also lucky , There is really nowhere to look for, and it doesn't take much effort to get it... The other party came to the door by himself, which saved him the effort of looking for it!

"No---!!"

   At the same time, there was a roar, and Duanmuhuai turned his head, only to see the beast staring at him viciously.

   "I will never allow you to take away the death rune!"

   "It sounds nice, didn't you **** it from someone else?"

  Duanmuhuai scoffed at the words of the beast, "If you can rob me, can't you?" Where in the world is there such a reason?

   "I will never allow..."

   While speaking, the beast raised the short sword in his hand, and stabbed hard at the back of his left hand!

   "Hmm!"

  Seeing this scene, Bambi and Milfie were startled, and Duanmuhuai also raised his eyebrows.

  Whether it's Greg or this guy, why do the bosses in this world like to chop their hands?

   Could it be that you are all gangsters? Cut off a finger at every turn?

   "Death...become my sword again."

However, this beast did not cut off his hand as Duanmuhuai thought. On the contrary, he slowly drew out the short sword that had been pierced into the back of his left hand. At the same time, a cold, trembling, black flame Emerging from its body, it completely burned the cloak that originally wrapped the beast.

   And under the cloak is a giant beast in black armor that looks like a werewolf.

  The beast roared to the sky, then fell to the ground, the original dagger in his hand had turned into a pitch-black, bright red sword. The beast turned its head, its eyes were filled with the cold light of death, staring at Duanmuhuai.

   "Die, thief!"
