"That little one crossed the bridge. Looks like One-Eye failed to stop her."
Hidden in the tunnel, there was a black shadow waiting for a chance to sneak attack.
After hearing the reminder from its companion in front of it, it coldly snorted with a little disdain, "That one-eyed guy always thought he was smart. He deserved to die. With his pitiful little cleverness, once the plan he came up with was seen through, it would be a dead end for him. The 'Mirror Room Corridor' wasn't a must-kill location. In this Spirit Beast Hall, acting alone was the most fatal. Keep a close eye on her. When that little one comes over, I'll lure her into the 'dead house'. Once I come out, activate the mechanism. "
The person in front immediately nodded, "Understood. We've cooperated with this ambush tactic more than a hundred times. There's definitely no problem."
The Reaper Mantis flew over.
The shadow that was hiding in the dark flashed. Its ferocious mouth spat out a dark green venom.
Wherever the venom touched, smoke came out and corroded everything.
But the sneak attack was ineffective. The cautious Reaper Mantis dodged it easily.
"Ball!"
After dodging the sneak attack, the Reaper Mantis threw out an energy ball.
Through the weak light of the energy ball, she saw a slender black shadow entering a tunnel.
She didn't know what mechanism it triggered, but one of the boxes at the bridgehead moved away. The bridge behind the Reaper Mantis quickly retracted. Looks like there's a mechanism here too. I have to get control of it, or else I won't be able to go back. The Reaper Mantis pondered for a moment before giving chase. It tailed the skinny black figure in front of it and chased after it into the passageway … After about a minute, there was another sound. The broken bridge that was retracted rumbled as it extended its steel rails and reconnected itself.
The one that stayed outside saw that the plan was a success and was overjoyed.
As long as the mechanism of the dead house was reset, the door could be closed.
Once the door was closed.
The creatures in the dead house would fall into the death trap and die for sure!
It flew to the control handle of the mechanism to 'close the door' and anxiously waited for its companion to come out. According to the plan, its companion would come out within ten seconds after the bridge mechanism was reset. The opponent would be a few seconds or even ten seconds later and be locked in the dead house.
As long as it pulled the control handle, the mission issued by the Toad King would be completed.
Ten, nine, eight …
Normally, his companions would come out after seven or eight seconds, but for some reason, they were a little slower today.
The unexpected turn of events made the guy outside very anxious.
A slender shadow flashed by the door.
The man who had been waiting anxiously recognized this as his partner. He immediately pulled down the control handle, and in an instant, the door of the house of death closed. The death traps inside were activated, and the creatures left inside would be burned into a pile of bones by the raging flames. Those with weaker bodies would not even have their bones left. Seeing that his companion had returned safely, the fellow who stayed behind couldn't help but grumble, "I say, Withered Snake, can you be a little more serious? This is very dangerous, and I almost thought that the plan had failed just now."
The Withered Snake that lured the Reaper Mantis into the House of Death laughed out loud. "How is that possible? I'm a veteran who has been training for a long time. That little one was too cautious just now, so I had no choice but to lure her further away. In terms of timing, I am very accurate. "
"In any case, don't make it so dangerous next time!" The guy who stayed behind was still a little dissatisfied.
"Alright, big-eyed monkey, don't complain, I'll give you an extra Heaven Rank mana crystal. You get eleven and I get nineteen. How's that? Isn't that good enough? " The Withered Snake spat out his forked black tongue and collected some residual aura in the air. "There's no one's aura outside, and everything is safe. Our plan is a hundred percent success. Now, let's go get some remains for the Toad King. I hope that little thing still has some bones left, so that the Toad King can't act shamelessly! Come to think of it, how could that idiot One-eyed believe that the Toad King would offer a reward like a hundred Heaven Rank mana crystals? You have to know that merely offering a reward of thirty mana crystals is already the most generous thing that the Toad King has ever done in his entire life. "
"There's indeed no one around, but don't we need to wait for a while? Maybe that little thing is especially tenacious, and hasn't died yet! "The guy who stayed behind just now said worriedly.
"Don't worry too much. A creature that can survive in the House of Death for ten seconds doesn't exist in the Beast Valley! Even if the Toad King went in, it would turn into a dead toad in a few seconds. It's a pity that that fellow is cunning, and refused to go in even if it died. Otherwise, I would have sent it on its way long ago! "The Withered Snake laughed sinisterly, and used the control handle to open the door of the House of Death.
The smell of burning flesh wafted out.
The Withered Snake and the big-eyed monkey looked at each other and smiled.
Usually, this was the smell of the beasts that they worked together to kill. It would be abnormal if there wasn't any.
They took a deep breath, and the Withered Snake laughed. "The authentic smell of burning corpses, this is my favorite!"
The bridge was broken again, and there wouldn't be any new challengers coming in. There wouldn't be anyone coming to disturb them anymore. The two beasts walked into the House of Death side by side without any worries. Working together and trusting each other was the basis of their cooperation. Usually, they would take turns to draw lots to lure their enemies. As the party who risked their lives, they would get more shares. During the process of collecting the corpses as evidence, both parties agreed that they must participate together, in case someone tried to monopolize the corpses and activated the trap.
Because the Withered Snake and the big-eyed monkey cooperated happily and trusted each other, they used the House of Death and their tacit understanding to kill almost a hundred strong enemies, even though they weren't very strong.
The big-eyed monkey was carrying an old and dirty corpse bag in his hand.
He had to collect some evidence to report back.
More importantly, he had to clean up all the corpses in the House of Death before he could trick his next prey.
Otherwise, the House of Death would be full of corpses.
Even a fool would be suspicious!
"That's strange, why aren't there any corpses? Could it be that they were all incinerated? "The big-eyed monkey searched for a long time, but couldn't find any corpses.
"What's so strange about that? That little thing was originally small, and its bones were all incinerated, so it's definitely possible. Or maybe it was blown to some corner by the firestorm. You have to know that once the door of the House of Death is closed, the firestorm inside will engulf everything. I remember that there were two mammoths that came here once, and their corpses were also blown thousands of meters away by the firestorm. Let's look around again. If we really can't find it, then forget it! " The Withered Snake didn't care. It saw with its own eyes that the little thing was behind it. Even when the House of Death was closed, she didn't have time to leave.
Rumble!
A familiar sound came from afar.
The Withered Snake and the big-eyed monkey looked at each other in confusion. What was going on? It sounded like the sound of a bridge being reconnected.
Oh no, once the bridge was reconnected, the control handle outside the House of Death would be pulled down.
If someone pulled the handle, the door would close.
The consequences would be unimaginable …
The big-eyed monkey and the Withered Snake couldn't care less about looking for corpses anymore. They ran out frantically.
When the two of them rushed to the bridge control lever inside the House of Death, they were shocked to find that the Reaper Mantis was waiting there with a smile. Its eyes looked as if it had seen an old friend. It even waved its hand affectionately, as if to say, "Long time no see" to the two friends. It also seemed to be saying, "Hurry up."
"Stop it!" The Withered Snake and the big-eyed monkey understood what pulling down the bridge control lever meant.
If this little thing ran outside and pulled down the control lever of the House of Death's door …
Any life that was trapped inside would be turned into ashes!
The Withered Snake and the big-eyed monkey used all their strength to pounce on the Reaper Mantis.
However, their crazy fatal attacks all missed … With a flash, the Reaper Mantis' shadow disappeared, and its real body appeared at the door of the House of Death three thousand meters away. If it hadn't condensed a faintly glowing energy ball in its hand, the Withered Snake and the big-eyed monkey wouldn't have discovered its existence. Both the Withered Snake and the big-eyed monkey were scared out of their wits …
They had never thought that the door of the House of Death would become the door to their Hell one day!
Even though they sprinted with all their strength, the big-eyed monkey, who was slightly slower, was anxious.
Big-eyed Monkey, who was slightly slower, was anxious. If he fell behind, he would definitely die.
It acted quickly and grabbed the Withered Snake's tail, hoping that its companion would help it. Even if it was just a little faster, it was better than nothing.
The Withered Snake was furious. It had already wanted to run away from the House of Death, but now the big-eyed monkey was dragging it down. Without hesitation, it swung its tail and hit the big-eyed monkey on the ground. Then, using the force, it shot forward at high speed. With the help of its companion's body, the Withered Snake's speed increased by a little.
It was confident that it could escape from the House of Death in three more seconds.
Three, two …
When it was about a hundred meters away from the door of the House of Death, the door of the House of Death instantly closed as the Reaper Mantis waved goodbye with a smile.
The Withered Snake hit the door in despair. It was only one second away, just one door away, but it was the difference between heaven and earth.
The difference between life and death.
A firestorm erupted and swept through the entire House of Death.
"No, ah, no!"
The Withered Snake and the big-eyed monkey, who had used this trick to kill almost a hundred beasts, howled miserably as they were burnt to ashes in the flames … In front of the control handle, there was a beast that looked like a flea, laughing with its ugly mouth. Its small eyes revealed a kind of pleasure of revenge.
"The mission that the Poisonous Bee King gave me has been completed. Because of your trust and cooperation, I have avenged my great enemy. The two enemies, the Withered Snake and the big-eyed monkey, have also been turned into ashes. I will take my leave now. Please continue to work hard!" The flea bowed respectfully to the Reaper Mantis, then jumped onto the bridge and quickly left the Spirit Beast Hall.
"Do your best!" The Reaper Mantis waved goodbye to the flea who came to help. After successfully killing the Withered Snake and the big-eyed monkey, she encouraged herself and continued to advance to the second and third floor.
She wanted to get the best brand, even if there was no one to help.
However, to a smart person, sometimes the enemy was the best 'companion'. The help of an enemy was no less than that of a companion.
You must continue to work hard, you are the best … The Reaper Mantis, who had been reborn as a human, clenched her fists cutely and flew to the next floor with a face full of determination. Although the test was very difficult and the various traps were very dangerous, they did not scare her at all. Furthermore, this dangerous Spirit Beast Hall was also the best place to train and grow.
