After seeing the stone door, Suhlen didn't rush forward. This could be considered the last stage of the passage. He didn't believe that the designer of these mechanisms would leave this place out. On the contrary, there would be even more dangerous and hidden traps here.
He rolled the heavy wooden stake over and heard a series of mechanical sounds. Suddenly, a continuous stream of arrows shot out from the surrounding walls.
The walls on both sides kept shooting out arrows. There was no blind spot in the passage, and the powerful arrows sank into the walls. After waiting for a while, the endless rain of arrows finally stopped. The passage became a mess, and it was filled with broken arrows.
After seeing that the arrows stopped, Suhlen went forward and picked up an arrow. Although the arrow was broken, the arrowhead was still shining coldly. It could be seen that these arrows were much more powerful than before. At such a close distance, they could even pierce through the armor of the barbarians.
After throwing away the arrow, Suhlen came in front of the stone door. Just as he was about to push the door open, he suddenly felt a trace of magic. Without thinking, Suhlen directly controlled the wind elements to form a constantly spinning wind shield in front of him. This wasn't a spell, but a little trick from the wind dragon flag's [Wind Element Control].
As soon as the wind shield appeared, a green liquid instantly sprayed out. The wind shield spun continuously the moment it came into contact with the liquid, and the green liquid flew to the surrounding walls. The moment the liquid came into contact with the walls, a burst of white smoke appeared. The stone walls were instantly corroded and holes appeared.
The liquid came and went quickly, and it stopped in just two seconds. Suhlen secretly rejoiced when he saw the situation of the corroded walls. It was obvious that this was a magic trap. The liquid just now was the spell Acid Spray.
This thing was more corrosive than concentrated sulfuric acid. Metal armor was not worth mentioning in front of it. It was obvious that the person who made this trap knew the weakness of the arrow trap. In order to deal with the metal armor, they specially prepared a strong acid trap. This way, even if the metal armor was blocked by the strong acid trap, it would be no different from paper in front of the strong acid trap.
Fortunately, Suhlen reacted quickly. Otherwise, the strong acid would be useless against him. However, the barbarian warriors wouldn't be able to withstand it, and they would suffer heavy losses.
After the acid trap was triggered, the magic trap was no longer effective. Suhlen was getting more and more interested in what was behind the stone door. Excluding the acid trap, the crossbow trap alone would cost at least 100 Kinnar. Plus, there were also magic traps. What good stuff was hidden behind the door?
After confirming that there were no other traps on the stone door, the two barbarian warriors prepared to push it open.
"Wu!"
A gust of chilly wind blew through the stone door, and then a shadow rushed out from the stone door. The shadow was hazy and looked sinister. Sensing something, the two of them slashed forward without hesitation. When the black shadow came into contact with their weapons, it disappeared with a whoosh.
"Specter?"
The barbarian warriors looked at each other and said.
"According to scientific theory, this is the violent oxidation of century-old dyes when they come into contact with the air. What ghost!" Suhlen said with a wave of his hand. He had seen this scene often in movies about grave robbers in his previous life. He explained with a serious expression.
Even though the barbarian warriors next to him didn't understand what Suhlen was saying, they still nodded to show that they understood. However, Suhlen seemed to have forgotten something. This world had supernatural powers.
"Hehe!"
A burst of eerie laughter appeared around them.
"Boss, what does science say about that sound just now?" A barbarian warrior at the side asked as he approached.
Your path is too narrow, brother! Su Lun made a note of this unsensible barbarian warrior in his little notebook in his mind.
"What science, this is a ghost!" After glaring at him, Suhlen kept looking around, trying to find where the ghost was hiding.
At this moment, a shadow suddenly appeared, followed by a sharp howl that exploded in everyone's ears. Suhlen felt as if his head had been hit hard with a hammer. His brain became dizzy at this moment. Fortunately, this feeling was very short.
Suhlen endured it in an instant, the spear in his hand flashing with streaks of lightning as it swept across the ghost's body. The lightning exploded and instantly enveloped the ghost. Then, a shrill cry rang out, and the ghost's originally illusory figure quickly dissipated, finally disappearing without a trace.
Suhlen rubbed his slightly swollen temples. There were still some aftereffects from the ghost's Howl of the Dead. Even though this attack seemed to kill the enemy through sound, as long as one covered one's ears, in reality, this was only on the surface. The Howl of the Dead was a type of Soul Magic.
It was used directly on the soul through the power of the soul. It could be said that this thing ignored physical defense. Creatures like ghosts were very unfriendly to pure physical Professionals. Their illusory bodies were almost immune to ninety percent of physical attacks. Only holy water or magical attacks were effective against them. Coupled with the Howl of the Dead, these things were simply the killers of low-level Professionals.
"How are you guys, Barran?" Suhlen asked as he looked at the barbarian warriors who were a little unsteady.
"Not bad, head, just a little pain in the head!" The barbarian warrior rubbed his head and grimaced in pain. These barbarians had strong bodies, and their power of the soul was not weak either. Therefore, even though they were hit by a soul attack, they could recover very quickly. If it was someone with a weak body and without corresponding defense measures, even if they did not die, they would have become a fool.
After seeing that the barbarian warrior was fine, Suhlen went to the place where he had killed the ghost. He saw that there was a black translucent crystal where the ghost had disappeared.
This thing was the soul fragment of the ghost. When undead creatures died, there was a certain chance that they would drop this thing. It was said that this was the materialization of spiritual energy. It was a magic material that could be sold to Wizards in exchange for Kinnar.
[Soul energy detected, absorb?]
Just as he casually picked up this soul fragment, the system prompt sounded in his ears. Suhlen's heart skipped a beat, and he chose to absorb.
"Extracting energy. The energy has been extracted. You have received two thousand seven hundred experience points!"
"Not bad." Suhlen's eyes lit up. He had received five hundred experience points from killing the ghost just now. He did not expect to receive two thousand seven hundred experience points after absorbing the soul crystal. This was much more than the experience he had received when he was patrolling and clearing out the kobolds in the wasteland.
After the energy had been extracted, the black soul fragment had turned grayish-white. It looked decayed and gray. With a light touch, this soul fragment shattered into countless powder, and then drifted away with the wind without a trace.
