Ma Wen was not surprised that the Tarantula Mercenaries appeared so quickly.
After all, Saluha was ring-shaped. He had spent a lot of time in the arsenal, which was more than enough for the Hand of Paleness to lead them from the other side.
The Desolate Altar was occupied by the evil spirits. There was no benefit in killing them. Most of Saluha's essence was in the arsenal and the control room.
Naturally, they came from the armory. Alas, all the treasures in the armory were guarded by powerful armed automatons.
Unless the correct password was entered, they would not get anything but a merciless slaughter.
Ma Wen hid in the dark and counted the number of people in the Tarantula Mercenaries. His heart skipped a beat.
"Another two-thirds less."
"Almost all of them were killed. Did they fight with the big guys in the arsenal?"
Ma Wen knew that even with the Hand of Paleness leading them, it would be difficult for ordinary people like them to take advantage of Saluha.
Perhaps they could change to a legendary profession, such as a legendary monk, or a legendary barbarian.
Even the Hand of Paleness, who was the most proficient in killing, would have a hard time facing a metal puppet.
It was like holding a sharp knife in your hand, but facing a tortoise shell that could not be pierced no matter how much you poked.
Without a doubt, they had only reached this place after experiencing a series of battles.
Ma Wen's eyes were like torches. He could see that other than Skye, who was relatively normal, the rest were more or less injured.
It was not that Marvin was sinister. He was not very optimistic about Saruja's expedition. Since the people of Tarantula had chosen to stand on the same side as Skye, he was too lazy to point out many mysteries. It was better to hide himself and see if he could take advantage of them.
"They must know that to get the good stuff in the arsenal, they have to get the corresponding password."
"The password is all in the control room. Are they going to attack the control room?"
Ma Wen could not wait for them to act so that he would have a chance to fish in troubled waters.
…
As expected, after observing for a while outside the cave, Skye suddenly gave the order.
They did not follow the usual route. Instead, they hung from the top of the cave using ropes and went straight to the control room.
That way, he would encounter fewer runes.
Ma Wen's heart skipped a beat. He changed his hiding spot and hid behind a pillar at the control room's door.
It could be seen that the remaining people were all good adventurers.
Although their professions weren't Stalkers, their movements were light and nimble. They slid down the rope from the cliff without making a sound.
This naturally included the leader of the Tarantula, Raymo. He still had some prestige among the adventurers. He could represent the thoughts of others and communicate with powerful legendary figures.
"Sir Skye, are we really going to attack the control room?"
Raymo looked at the sea of automatons in the distance and couldn't help but shudder.
Although they were different from the rune warriors he had encountered in the armory, their numbers were still shocking.
The dozen people he had brought with him were not enough at all.
Ma Wen hid in the dark and listened to their discussion. He gradually figured out their situation.
…
In terms of manpower, Ma Wen was wrong. The Tarantula Mercenary Band was an experienced adventurer team. How could so many people die at once?
They did encounter a few rune warriors in the armory, but with teamwork and Skye's strong performance, they were finally defeated.
However, under Raymo's arrangement, he divided the remaining people into three groups. The weakest stayed at the Primordial Altar to search for goblin treasures that might have been left behind.
The second group stayed at the armory as reinforcements.
Although there were many rune warriors in the armory, they were all silent. As long as they didn't try to take the treasures by force, they wouldn't be activated. So it was still a relatively safe area.
The last group that followed Skye to attack the control room were the elites of the elites.
They had already figured out the key to Saluha from the Darkspirit Emissary.
Now they were discussing how to attack the seemingly peaceful building in front of them.
…
"Damn, it really was the Tarantula who released the Hand of Paleness."
"I say, even if the Darkspirit Emissary can't do it, it shouldn't be a problem to trap Skye for a while, right?"
Ma Wen caught some clues from the whispered conversation between the two sides.
If it wasn't for the Tarantula, Skye would probably still be in the Primordial Altar.
"Even Tidomas made a move?"
"Sure enough, I have the [Ma Wen must die] halo in the eyes of the Darkspirits."
Ma Wen laughed at himself. He was in Fernand, so he wasn't afraid of the hostility of the Darkspirit World. However, he had to be careful when he entered a place with Darkspirits in the future.
He hid behind a pillar and listened to the whispers of the crowd.
This building seemed to have no defense, but it was indestructible. It was said that even the walls were made of K-metal. Even a legendary wizard's spell might not be able to break it.
The only way to enter was when the door was open.
Skye discussed with a few of the Tarantula people and finally decided to enter from the main door.
They were ready to trigger the alarm, and with a few grade 4 powerhouses leading the charge, they rushed in from the front.
On the other side, they arranged some people to resist the automatons that might be awakened.
As long as they killed their way in from the main door, these people could quickly retreat and enter the building. It would be much easier to defend then.
"These adventurers are even greedier than me!"
"They actually want to get hold of the keys to all the automatons and take all of Saluha's things."
"I just want that big guy …" Lin Li said.
Ma Wen listened to their plan and sneered in his heart.
In Raymo and Skye's plan, those who were used to resist the automatons were clearly there to die.
There were so many automatons at the foot of the mountain, and when they rushed up, it was not something that these few people could resist.
Unless a legendary wizard or a mage of the corresponding level took action, it would be a headache for ordinary people to encounter an army of automatons!
Not to mention a few ordinary mercenaries.
The poor adventurers were promised by Raymo that the spoils of war would be distributed to them first when they returned, but they didn't know that death was imminent.
After all, the automatons in the distance seemed to be in a half-asleep state.
But Ma Wen knew that once they triggered the alarm, all the automatons would wake up!
At that time, not many people here could escape.
Skye was naturally one of them.
…
In the process of waiting, Ma Wen was very patient. He was very careful to hide his aura.
Although his Sneak was as high as 200 points and could even hide from the Heavenly Realm Inspector, Skye was a legendary powerhouse after all, and it was not a big mistake to be careful.
He hid on the side, and not long after, Raymo sent a mercenary forward to try to open the door of the building.
The mercenary was careless, and he was probably a person who did not care about anything. Unfortunately, in this kind of place, this kind of character would bring him a fatal disaster!
Ma Wen coldly hid on the side, watching him fumble up and down, trying to open the door.
In the distance, Raymo and Skye showed a look of contemplation.
It was obvious that they were sending people to their deaths.
However, what was surprising was that this mercenary fumbled up and down, pressed some unknown button, and not only did he not trigger the mechanism, he actually succeeded in opening the door!
Woo woo woo!
Under everyone's flabbergasted gazes, the metallic door slowly opened. In the pitch-black space, lights suddenly lit up one after another!
"Hahahahaha …"
"Boss Raymo, I told you long ago that I have the potential to be a thief, but you forced me to practice swordsmanship with you. What goblin mechanism, it's very simple. "
Everyone was speechless.
Even Ma Wen, who was at the side, was surprised.
This guy's luck was really out of this world.
One had to know that there were a total of seven or eight buttons on the door of this building, and one had to press the right password to open the door. Otherwise, it would directly trigger the alarm, and all kinds of terrifying mechanisms would attack.
"That works?"
Ma Wen couldn't help but look at this burly guy in a new light. Who knew that in the next second, a faint red light lit up in the depths of the door.
"Not good!" Ma Wen hid in the dark, and directly rolled away from the direction of the building.
Unfortunately, that person did not notice this. He was still laughing wildly, and loudly called for others to come over.
Whoosh!
Silently, a ball of angry red laser net suddenly shot out and wrapped that person's entire body!
"Ah!"
A shrill scream came from the poor mercenary. Near him, angry red laser energy shot out in all directions, and even the place where Ma Wen was hiding just now was swept!
Sizzle sizzle sizzle!
In the blink of an eye, a strong mercenary was roasted into a charred corpse!
Everyone watched with chills all over their bodies!
This was not a place where treasures were buried, it was clearly a place where bones were buried!
"Quickly disperse!"
Raymo's reaction was still timely, and he let everyone disperse.
Because then, one after another, laser balls were thrown out.
It was a terrifying automaton, step by step, walking out of the hall on the first floor of the building!
It directly stepped over the corpse, and trampled it into powder.
Slaughterer!
Ma Wen's eyelids twitched.
Shouldn't this guy be on the second floor, why did he suddenly have the mood to come to the first floor?
"Kill him!"
Skye roared, directly escaped into the Shadow World, and began to look for the automaton's weakness!
The rest of the mercenaries also dispersed, their eyes filled with fear. Those laser balls just now were too terrifying!
Its power was comparable to the Legendary Disintegration!
"Intruder... Die!"
The massive Slaughterer's movements were not slow. Suddenly, six pitch-black gun barrels extended out of his body!
"This is a f * cking Transformer."
Ma Wen, who was at the side, also felt his scalp go numb.
The Killer in its slaughter form was extremely abnormal, and its attack power was simply heaven-defying. Boom!
Boom! Boom!
Countless bullets poured out from the gun barrels, and the mercenaries who could not dodge in time were directly killed!
These were not the guns of the desert people, but the firearms of the ancient goblins!
What made everyone feel even more tragic was that the moment the Killer appeared, the group of automatons at the foot of the mountain also woke up.
At this critical moment, Ma Wen no longer hesitated, and directly activated Melody of the Night, passing by the Killer, and went deep into the hall of the control room!
