A buzzing sound rang in her ears, and when her feet touched the ground again, Akasha staggered a few steps due to the dizziness caused by the elemental turbulence. Natha quickly reached out and steadied her body.
The two stood still at the same time, thinking that Roddy would follow closely, but after two or three seconds, nothing appeared in the forest behind them …
"Roddy?"
Akasha had a bad feeling in her heart, and she turned around to call out. But at this moment, Natha suddenly pushed her away!
"Be careful-"
"Crack!"
A cold breath brushed past her, and an explosion sounded. Akasha, who had lost her balance, was directly blown away by the airwave!
But because her body dodged in time, she was not hurt. Akasha looked up, and then found that a round tower suddenly appeared in front of her.
This tower was 70% similar to the "Pasha Magic Tower" in Elsen City, but the height was a third lower, and the diameter of the tower was much smaller. Before she could see more, the fireball flying straight at her scared her again!
"Boom!"
Akasha dodged with all her might, and the airwave of the explosion made her extremely embarrassed. In her heart, she was even more puzzled. What is this place? Why am I being hit by ice arrows and fireballs as soon as I come in?
"Hiss …"
A strange hissing sound rang in her ears, and Akasha, who barely dodged the attack, realized that there was a group of strange creatures made of elements not far in front of her!
They were three to four meters tall, and their floating bodies were made up of smoke-like elements. The "Fire Elemental" was red, the "Water Elemental" was ice blue, and the "Thunder Elemental" was flashing with purple light … Such pure elemental creatures had only been recorded in the history books in the past, because it was impossible for such creatures to naturally form in nature. The entire continent had not seen any traces of them for hundreds of years.
But … how did they appear here?
"Quickly dodge!"
Natha's voice could be heard, and an arrow shot out at the same time, but Akasha could only watch as it nailed into the body of the "Fire Elemental" and turned into ashes …
This counterattack seemed to have angered the seven or eight elemental creatures in front of her. They once again got into an attacking stance, and the soul-stirring elemental shock made Akasha's heart tighten. With the strength of these guys in front of her, any one of them could easily crush her to death!
Just as the thought of despair rose in their minds, the two noticed that the other party had stopped moving and was abruptly aiming at another direction. In an instant, all sorts of elements poured out like a torrential rain, and the crackling sounds of explosions were deafening to their ears.
Akasha and Natha turned around at the same time and realized that they were bombarding the snow monsters that had been chasing them!
The snow monsters that had entered the dungeon were appearing in front of the Magic Tower one after another, and they seemed to have a "group taunt". As soon as they appeared, the group of elemental creatures would completely lock onto them, completely ignoring the two humans who had entered first …
Sodelor was missing, the army was missing, and Roddy was also missing. In this strange place, only Akasha and Natha were left. But the two, who had been swept up in the inexplicable battle, looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion.
"What should we do next?"
*****
The team of more than 60 people had been divided due to the unstable tremors at the entrance of the dungeon. By now, they had been divided into three parts: Sodelor, the army, and the barbarians had entered the "outer wall", Akasha and Natha had broken into the "Magic Tower", and as for Roddy …
Looking at the palace-like "Tomb of the King" in the distance and the straight stone path in front of him, the only thing Roddy could do was angrily curse Solomon's ancestors.
Roddy's reaction was actually very fast. After seeing this typical High Elf mausoleum, he confirmed that he had entered the "wrong dungeon" — the "Tomb of the King" was an advanced Level-55 dungeon. Regardless of who had broken the seal, the only thing he had to consider now was to leave this place as soon as possible …
He had no desire to force his way through a dungeon of this level, because if he took one wrong step, he would definitely be greeted with a disaster.
But after thinking for a while, Roddy's heart turned cold … because there were only three ways to leave a dungeon in the game: "die", "go offline", or "clear the dungeon".
"I'm so unlucky to fall to this extent … My luck is really off the charts."
He complained to himself more to calm down. Roddy tried to take a deep breath and looked around. He couldn't see Sodelor, Natha, Akasha, or the army at all, so he couldn't help but feel anxious and conflicted.
He knew that there were pursuers behind him, so he immediately began to run forward. At the same time, he lowered his head to check his current equipment and status: full HP and MP, short bow in hand, battle axe on his back, eight explosive arrows in the quiver, Purification Blade at his waist, four spare potions, a powerful curse scroll, and an "Extreme Water Essence".
A white halo appeared in Roddy's eyes because of the "Mark of the Dragon Slayer", but he couldn't be bothered to determine the position of the nearby giant dragons. After a few steps, he heard the signature roar of the snow monsters behind him —
One figure after another rushed into the dungeon, charging straight at the running Roddy.
"Damn it, they're really persistent!"
The terrain was open, and there was no place to hide. Roddy could only brace himself and run forward. He didn't even have the interest to look back and shoot. There were too many snow monsters behind him, and it didn't make much difference if he shot eight arrows or not.
At this time, he could only pin his hopes on the buildings in the dungeon. If the terrain was suitable, he could still find a place to hide and escape. If he was lucky enough to find a "choke point", it wouldn't be wishful thinking to turn back and kill these guys!
Being chased by monsters didn't make Roddy despair. In the past, he had broken many "solo" dungeon records in order to improve his strength. It wasn't the first time he led a group of monsters through a dungeon, so even if there were hundreds of snow monsters behind him, he didn't feel that he was at the end of the road.
"As long as I can run faster than you, I'll find a way to kill you!"
After more than a year of bloody battles, Rody's' homebody aura 'had been polished away. However, the ruthlessness in his heart that refused to admit defeat had never changed.
All monsters had a weakness. As long as he could find it, no matter how many enemies there were, he could take care of them. Other things aside, Roddy had this confidence in everything in Earth Splitter.
And so, a strange scene played out in the Tomb of the King. Alone, Roddy ran along the stone path at a moderate speed. The snow monsters that were more than 50 feet behind him roared and chased after him. But even after running for a long time, the distance between them didn't change at all.
As Roddy ran, he also observed the environment of the dungeon. The style of the High Elves' buildings was very easy to recognize. The palace not far away was pure white, and it had the "architectural miracle" aura of the Pantheon in ancient Rome. The square layout of the main body was filled with all kinds of complicated relief decorations and runes. The entire building was made of pure white stone. When the sun shone on it, it was crystal clear, and it was very eye-catching in the green plains.
Roddy, who maintained a constant speed, had never been here before, but this didn't stop him from choosing a strategy based on his rich experience in dungeons. When he was about 100 feet away from the palace, he roughly estimated the terrain and the places where monsters might appear. Once he came up with a strategy, Roddy pulled out an explosive arrow and nocked it. When he reached the edge of the palace, he deviated a few steps and went to the other side.
This was to better observe the surroundings of the palace to see if there were any monsters. However, after running for a short distance, Rody almost stumbled and fell.
Not far away, Merinthera was looking at the palace with a defeated expression. When she heard Roddy's footsteps, she slowly moved her gaze away like a rusty machine.
The human and dragon stared at each other. Both of them had undisguised shock on their faces.
But Merinthera's emotions were soon drowned by boundless despair. Dragons were born with arrogance. In some ways, they were more like the descendants of well-established human nobles. They heard a lot and practiced a lot, but they rarely encountered setbacks in their lives. Suddenly suffering a heavy blow was often fatal.
Looking at Roddy, the Shadow Dragon's shock was only limited to him appearing in a place where he shouldn't be. Other than that, she didn't take him seriously at all.
What human or not? He no longer had any hope of escaping, so who would care about that?
Merinthera's perfect face was so fair that it was almost translucent. Her robe, which was torn because of the battle, gave off an indescribable sense of desolation and loneliness. She had completely lost her confidence after staking everything she had. The Dragons' ever-present confidence had been completely shattered.
Even though Roddy only took a glance at her, he could feel the alienation from the world from her.
Roddy didn't have many feelings for this dragon in human form. Although he could still remember the "deal" he made with her in the Silent Forest, it wasn't enough for him to befriend her. Based on his understanding of the Dragon race, Rody understood that these 'higher creatures' had never really put themselves on the same level as the humans before.
Their "politeness" and "respect" were, in fact, a manifestation of their inner arrogance. If he really thought that he could get her to help him deal with the snow monsters by waving and shouting, then he deserved to die in this godforsaken place!
Greet her before continuing to run? He had nothing better to do.
In the next moment, both of them looked away at the same time. Roddy continued to run forward, while Merinthera stood in the same spot. She didn't make any unnecessary movements.
Thud, thud, thud …
The snow monsters behind them gradually approached the palace. Due to the addition of the "Demonized Snow Monsters", their momentum was even greater. Roddy turned around and saw that there were at least 300 snow monsters following them. Among them, there were six or seven "Demonized Snow Monsters" and a named snow monster boss.
"I can only rely on myself now …"
He looked at the open gate of the palace and slowly narrowed his glowing eyes.
