Facing the question, Merda was not afraid at all. She calmly said, "Recovering the soul stone is an important matter for the monastery, and it's my top priority. Your Highness, if we follow your order to intercept Dior Si Kail Bloom, we can only force him to leave, and it will be difficult to recover the soul stone. "
The coarse nun behind Merda said in a rough voice, "His Highness also said that only a fool would sacrifice for the benefit of others."
These two nails, one soft and one hard, made Prince Richard's face turn ugly.
The identity of the Imperial Prince was not omnipotent, especially in the context of ancient Europe. As the saying went, "My vassal's vassal is not my vassal", it meant that the emperor was far away, and the county magistrate was not as good as the one in charge. Even if the prince of the Lionheart Empire came to the north, it was impossible for everyone to respond to his call.
In particular, the Northshire Monastery had existed for hundreds of years, longer than the history of the Lionheart Empire. With a long history, they would not blindly obey the orders of the Empire.
Glantis said faintly, "Dean Merda, do you really believe that those two rebels can successfully reach the Pass of Light?"
After successfully attracting everyone's attention, Glantis slowly said, "The environment of the mausoleum is very special. It's full of hostility to life forms, and it's a paradise for the undead. We have so many powerhouses, and with the guidance of Dean Merda, we will find a shelter in the mausoleum to rest and reorganize after every battle. Only then will we have the confidence to reach the Pass of Light. Those two rebels are weak and unfamiliar with the terrain. How can they reach it? "
As soon as these words came out, the others immediately nodded.
"That's right. If we didn't pass by the shelter to recover our physical strength in the upper levels of the mausoleum, we would have been in a very bad state when we finally reached here."
"The evil energy in the lower levels of the mausoleum is even stronger. Our physical strength recovery is almost stagnant here. Without the shelter to rest and reorganize, it won't be easy for us to reach the Pass of Light safely with our powerful lineup. "
Merda sighed and said, "That person called Dior has already developed part of the evil soul stone's power. He should have enough confidence to reach it. No matter what, he's already taken a step ahead of us. Let's hurry up and get there before him, so as to prevent him from acting recklessly and violating the taboo. "
Prince Richard snorted discontentedly, but he had nothing to say. He could only urge everyone to move.
…
"Running away after showing off. How exciting."
Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi took many twists and turns along the way, only stopping after encountering a group of monsters. Both of them were slightly out of breath. This was a rare sight for Awakened ones.
The undead monsters in front of them were a group of zombies from the Corpse Demon Clan. They were all elites. Bai Xiaowen scanned these Elite Zombies with his Insight. He discovered that these Elite Zombies had all sorts of abilities, such as Bone Hardening (Increased Armor), Ice Strengthening (Added Ice Effect to Attacks), Ghost Strike (Increased Critical Rate), and so on.
If he hadn't known about this beforehand, he might have been at a disadvantage. But now that he had seen through the ins and outs of the elite zombie horde, Bai Xiaowen was able to deal with them with ease.
The Bone Armored Zombies were handed over to the Undead Demon Arcane Master, while the other zombies were handed over to Kitchen Knife's summoned creatures. The Butcher used Decay to tank at the front, reducing the enemy's Double Resistance while slowing down the group.
The group of Elite Zombies fell one after another.
Bai Xiaowen still had time to talk to Li Shuyi.
"It seems that the monsters on the second floor of the mausoleum are even stronger. Most of them are elites and above. I can't see any normal monsters anymore," Li Shuyi said with emotion. "Think about the environment here, and think about that Vampire Lord Markus. It's no wonder this is an S + Elite Side Quest."
"Under normal circumstances, we have to deal with a group of nuns before we can enter the mausoleum," Bai Xiaowen said, shaking his head. "If these are the only difficulties, this Elite Side Quest would be S Rank at most. But I reckon that the monsters here can resurrect infinitely. That's why it's an S + difficulty. "
"Resurrect infinitely?" Li Shuyi repeated in astonishment. "That's ridiculous."
"No, it's very possible," Bai Xiaowen said. "On the first floor of the mausoleum, we followed behind a group of leaders. It stands to reason that the leaders should have cleared the monsters. Why do we keep encountering monsters? Think about what Markus said before he died. A vampire dared to say that he was immortal, and he didn't change his words even after becoming a soul … This is very telling. Maybe it's because of the special environment here. "
"If Markus can resurrect infinitely, who can beat him?" Li Shuyi said.
Bai Xiaowen shook his head. "Resurrection definitely takes time. Generally speaking, the stronger the monster, the more energy it needs to gather to resurrect. Correspondingly, the time it takes to resurrect will also be longer. If the resurrection time of an Elite Zombie is one, then the resurrection time of a Leader Zombie is at least five to ten. If we don't have the Black Soul Stone to absorb souls, we'll definitely have to escape before Markus resurrects after killing him. "
Li Shuyi nodded in agreement. However, her mind quickly changed as she said, "Xiaowen, you mentioned that special Bosses have a chance of dropping Dark-Gold Equipment, such as Prince Richard."
"Yes," Bai Xiaowen said.
"Then should we consider killing him? We'll be lucky if he drops a Dark Gold equipment. Besides, Prince Richard will definitely meet the B-level reputation requirement of the main mission. "Li Shuyi was full of murderous intent.
"I thought about it when I met Prince Richard in the atrium of the monastery."
Bai Xiaowen smiled. "But now I'm sure that it's impossible to complete the main mission with Prince Richard's head."
"Why? Isn't he famous enough? "Li Shuyi was speechless.
"It's not about fame …" Bai Xiaowen controlled the summoned creature to kill the last Elite Zombie. He exhaled and said, "Richard isn't from the Spiritual World at all!"
"Not … from the Spiritual World? Could he be an Awakened? " Li Shuyi's face was full of disbelief when he realized this. "What, what kind of identity is this? It's too crazy! I'm going to protest against the rules of the Spiritual World … "
Bai Xiaowen smiled bitterly. "I don't know. According to the rules, the identity of a C-level ticket is one level higher than that of a free citizen, a B-level ticket is two levels higher, and an A-level ticket is unclear … To be able to enter as a prince of an empire, I'm afraid he has to be an S-level ticket."
This wasn't a prince of a small country, but a prince of the unified Lionheart Empire.
"If that's the case, this Richard guy has a terrifying background," Li Shuyi murmured.
