The Grim Reaper moved quickly, but Fangzheng's reaction wasn't slow either. As the Grim Reaper brandished its scythe, Fangzheng raised his left hand and a musket appeared in Fangzheng's hand.
Bang!!
Along with the gunshot, the Grim Reaper's attack was forcefully interrupted. At the same time, Fangzheng quickly retreated and escaped from the Grim Reaper's attack range.
"Ying Lili, investigate!"
"Okay!!"
At this moment, Ying Lili quickly took out a piece of paper and began to investigate the Grim Reaper. Then, her expression changed abruptly.
"Mr. Fangzheng, this is a Floor 90 Boss!!"
Are you kidding me?
Hearing Ying Lili's answer, Fangzheng was taken aback. This isn't normal, this is too abnormal. The average monster on this floor isn't even at the 90th Floor. Why would there be a Floor 90 Boss here?
It's impossible for you to encounter the Deathwing in the Deadmines!
Whoosh!!
Although the Grim Reaper's attack was interrupted by Fangzheng, it was obvious that its recovery rate was much higher than ordinary Bosses. After Fangzheng took two steps forward, it quickly recovered its battle state, gripped its scythe tightly, and slashed at Fangzheng.
Bang!
Fangzheng fired another shot and forcefully interrupted the Grim Reaper's attack. He didn't dare to use his weapon to fight the Grim Reaper head-on. Although in terms of level, Fangzheng was currently strong enough to fight a Floor 60 Boss, they were on the 90th Floor. If he was careless, he would be severely injured. This wasn't a joke!
After being interrupted twice in a row, the Grim Reaper seemed to have realized that its target wasn't a pushover. It retreated abruptly and disappeared into the shadows.
At the same time, Ying Lili suddenly screamed.
"Asuna, behind you!!"
Upon hearing Ying Lili's scream, Fangzheng hurriedly turned his head and saw Death appear once again from the darkness behind him. He brandished his sickle and slashed at Asuna and Ying Lili.
"Bang!!"
Fortunately, Asuna's reaction wasn't slow either. Just as Ying Lili screamed, she quickly pushed Kurumi away and fired a shot at the Grim Reaper, interrupting its attack once again.
"Gather, gather, gather over here!"
Currently, on Fangzheng's side, only Fangzheng and Asuna were equipped with guns. Ying Lili was using the 3D Maneuver Gear and didn't have a gun. Needless to say, Yui and Uriel. With the Grim Reaper blocking everyone's path of retreat, it was impossible for them to leave now. Therefore, Fangzheng could only gather everyone together. Previously, for the sake of safety, he deliberately distanced himself from Asuna and the others, but now it seemed that this had become a dangerous factor!
Before Fangzheng's voice faded, Asuna pulled Uriel, who was stunned beside her, and ran toward Fangzheng without hesitation. At the same time, Ying Lili quickly activated the 3D Maneuver Gear, carried Yui, and flew through the passage to Fangzheng's side.
"Roar — —!!"
At this moment, the Grim Reaper BOSS roared again and disappeared into the corridor, once again out of sight.
"Be careful of the surroundings."
Fangzheng held a sword in one hand and a gun in the other, vigilantly watching the surroundings. In the short encounter with the Grim Reaper, he discovered that the biggest characteristic of the Grim Reaper was its fast attack speed and elusiveness. This kind of Boss was the most annoying. Judging from the battle, the Grim Reaper had high attack, high agility, and low defense, and was more difficult to deal with than the Centaur Boss in Steel City.
But why did it appear here?
"Mr. Fangzheng, it's split into three!"
Ying Lili shouted again. This time, Fangzheng also saw that the Grim Reaper had split into three, blocking the entire three-way intersection. They raised their scythes high and rushed toward them like a real Grim Reaper harvesting lives.
"Bang!"
"Everyone, retreat to that room!!"
Fangzheng interrupted the Grim Reaper's next attack with a shot, then he shouted loudly. Hearing his order, Ying Lili quickly rushed into the room where Xin Ka was previously with Yui in her arms, followed by Uriel. Then, Fangzheng and Asuna also quickly entered the room, holding their guns tightly as they stared at the Grim Reaper.
Sure enough, after the Grim Reapers came to the door of the room, they did not move forward, as if they were blocked by something. They held their scythes, lingered outside the room for a moment, then disappeared into the black mist.
"Phew …"
Only then did Fangzheng let out a sigh of relief and put down his weapon. In any case, they were safe for the time being, but …
"I didn't expect us to be locked in here too."
Ying Lili complained helplessly as she looked at Uriel and Xin Ka who were whispering to each other. They came to save people, but they didn't expect that they would be locked in here instead.
What should they do?
Fangzheng did not respond to Ying Lili's complaint. He silently opened the system interface. As expected, both teleportation and communication were prohibited. In other words, they were trapped here just like Uriel and Xinca.
"I'm really sorry."
At this time, Xin Ka also came over and apologized to everyone. He had already heard about what happened from Uriel, so he naturally felt a little apologetic.
"I didn't expect to drag you guys into this, sigh …"
"It's fine. Since we're here, we'll naturally make all kinds of preparations. The current situation isn't too surprising."
As Fangzheng spoke, he carefully sized up the room in front of him. Just as Xin Ka had said, it was a very strange empty space. The ceiling, walls, and floor were all white. It looked like the space in many games that didn't have the time to add graphics. There was only a pitch-black rectangular stone pillar in the middle. It was unknown what it was used for.
Fangzheng retracted his gaze and looked at Xin Ka.
"So, Mr. Xin Ka, can you tell me the specific situation of this boss? How did you guys meet it? What kind of rules does it have? Did you guys accidentally trigger some kind of mission? "
"I don't know."
Xin Ka also shook his head.
"We were just approaching this room. We thought there might be some hidden treasure chests inside, but we didn't expect to be attacked by that monster as soon as we got here …. Sigh, if we knew this would happen, we wouldn't have explored this path. There's nothing here except this room …."
"Nothing?"
Hearing until here, Fangzheng frowned.
"You mean, this is also a hidden path?"
"It should be an abandoned path. The stairs to the next floor are over there …."
As he spoke, Xin Ka gestured with his hand and drew the terrain for Fangzheng.
"At the end of this path is a path, but I think even if it's just a path, there should be something inside …."
Needless to say, Xin Ka's thinking was very normal. In a Japanese RPG maze, there would always be some rewards at the end of the path. For example, potions, equipment, treasure chests, and so on. Otherwise, it would be too disappointing if the players wasted half a day wandering around the maze only to find that there was no path at the end without any rewards.
No wonder Xin Ka immediately rushed over when he saw the hidden room at the end of the path. If it were Fangzheng, he would also think that there was something good inside ….
But no one noticed that at that moment, Jessie stared blankly at the black stone pillar. Then, as though she was attracted by it, she staggered toward the black stone pillar.
Then, Yui stretched out her small hand and slowly placed it on the stone pillar.
