Although Nangong had a bunch of real stuff in his hands, he was still a mere mortal. This was evident from his fighting style. He could neither fly nor pull a ton of weight. Even if a pebble fell on his head, he would have to dodge it. Hao Ren's confidence was boosted. He went up to the half-baked demon hunter and knocked him down with a brick.
He used his MDT.
"This thing finally works for once!" Hao Ren looked at Nangong lying on the ground. He looked at the hexagonal metal block in his hand, which was about the shape of an ashtray. After countless unpleasant user experiences, he finally found the only useful function of this thing. However, the MDT obviously did not think so. It cursed in Hao Ren's mind for five minutes. Hao Ren felt that he should find out where the MDT's mute function was.
"Problem solved. Let's go!" Hao Ren shook his head. Vivian and Lily immediately transformed. They began to bombard the undead armors that were gradually getting rid of the control of the runes. Suddenly, the undead that were closing in on them were cleared. But just when everything was going according to plan, something shocking happened: a rope suddenly dropped down from the big hole in the ceiling of the hall!
The skinny Indian monk didn't leave either. Instead, he descended from the sky just like Nangong did!
Hao Ren looked at the two superwomen who were killing everything in their way. He then looked at Nangong who was lying on the ground. He gritted his teeth and stomped his feet. He felt that it was time for him to show a man's determination. So, he rushed up to the skinny monk before he could adapt to the dark environment in the crypt. The MDT's scream rang in his mind. "Stop right now! You have a problem with this — "
* Bang! *
The Indian monk, who seemed to be "somewhat capable" like Nangong, was also a mortal. The brick hit the back of his head and he fainted on the spot. The unlucky monk had just slid down the rope, and before his feet could touch the ground, he was already lying on the ground.
Hao Ren carried the unconscious old man and put him aside. He felt bad. He apologized to the old man who was wearing a strange robe and smelling of spices. "I'm sorry. This is a special situation. If you were awake, it would be dangerous."
"You're still being unreasonable?" Vivian spread her big wings and looked at Hao Ren with a weird expression.
"He's old. I have to apologize for hitting him on the back of his head."
Vivian suddenly said, "… You're not as respectful to me as you usually are."
Hao Ren was at a loss for words.
Without the interference of outsiders, in a relatively open space, and with the moonlight shining down from above, Vivian and Lily were finally able to use their fists and legs. With a violent meat grinder and a perpetual polar storm, hundreds of metal cans were lying on the ground. However, more than half of the cans were not completely "dead". These Iron Warriors had a vitality far beyond human imagination. Even if they were smashed into pieces, they could quickly regenerate. Soon, the hall was filled with the sound of metal armor pieces rolling around. Countless broken limbs rolled on the ground and reassembled into new sets of armor. Whether it was the sound or the scene, it was hair-raising. However, Hao Ren's nerves were already used to such a scene. He just felt that it was not a good idea to continue fighting like this. The life force of these armors was too strong. It was not that they could not be killed, but they could regenerate immediately after being killed. This was a headache. Vivian's polar storm also needed a buffer period. The constant cold air had caused the temperature of the hall to drop to a dangerous level. Hao Ren was worried that he would freeze to death before the armors were completely frozen. Or maybe Nangong and the Indian monk would freeze to death first.
They would have to move the battlefield to a more spacious area — or just run away.
"Let's think of a way to get up there." Hao Ren looked up at the big hole above. "Think of a way to get up there. We don't know how many undead armors there are. Fighting them underground is a complete waste of energy."
"Okay!" Lily had found another unlucky undead armor to kill. She was the first to run back when she heard Hao Ren's words. The werewolf maiden had had enough of this gloomy and cramped space. She swung her "war hammer" around and sent a bunch of enemies flying. She was ready to break through. However, Hao Ren first gathered the two unlucky undead lying on the ground. "We have to bring them up."
"Two … and you. It's not going to be easy." Vivian frowned. Suddenly, she saw two ropes hanging down from the top of the hole. She flew up and cut the ropes off. She returned with the ropes and handed them to Hao Ren. "Tie these two together. I'll pull them up first. You and Doggie wait behind. Doggie, can you get up there by yourself?"
Lily looked up at the big hole and nodded confidently. "I can jump up there!"
Hao Ren was amazed by the werewolf maiden's jumping ability. He then quickly tied Nangong and the skinny old man together. Vivian flapped her wings and flew up with the two of them.
Not long after, Vivian flew back into the hole. "It's done. Leave it at the place where the paranormal enthusiasts camped. You hit it hard. They won't wake up for a while."
"Let's get ready." Hao Ren nodded. Suddenly, he remembered something. He pointed at the black crystal that was half-buried in the gravel not far away. "This thing … How do we deal with it?"
The Demon's Stone that caused all the trouble was still lying quietly in the middle of the hall. After falling from a high altitude and being hit by falling rocks for a long time, there was not a single crack on it. Hao Ren was sure that the Demon's Stone had 'awakened'. When it fell from the roof, it was obviously affected by the impact. The moment its tip touched the ground, it kept flashing with an unsettling red light. The undead guards in the crypt had also lost control because of the Demon's Stone's power. Other than that, the Demon's Stone did not cause any more commotion. It did not summon a devil as Vivian had said. So, when everyone was busy fighting, they subconsciously ignored the Demon's Stone.
But now, they could no longer ignore it. The Demon's Stone kept flashing, which meant that it was not going to stay there quietly. Moreover, it had a huge impact on the undead in the crypt. No matter what, they could not let it stay there.
At the very least, they had to move it to the surface, away from the surrounding undead. Since the crypt's seal was gone, there was no point in keeping it in the Demon's Chamber.
Vivian saw the Demon's Stone and felt a headache coming on. But, she knew that she could not ignore it. So, she turned to Lily and said, "Doggie, carry it up. I'll bring Mr. Landlord up."
Lily was shocked. "Why … Hey, you're cheating!"
Before the werewolf could finish her sentence, Vivian grabbed Hao Ren's arm and flew out of the cave.
"Phew … It feels so good to breathe in fresh air." As soon as they were back on the surface, Hao Ren let out a long sigh and sat on the ground. Even though he had received his salary, he was still in the initial stage of strengthening his body. He would still feel pain and cramps. He did not even have the strength to stand up. "Let me catch my breath for a while. It was such a bad night …"
"Why isn't Doggie coming up yet?" After a few seconds, Vivian looked at the silent big hole dozens of meters away and asked curiously, "Is there a problem?"
As soon as she finished her sentence, they heard Lily scream. Then, a silver-white figure jumped out of the cave like a cannonball. Lily held the Demon's Stone in her arms and jumped a few meters above the ground. She shouted proudly in the air, "I told you, I'm up in one jump!"
Hao Ren and Vivian watched silently as Lily jumped out of the cave and fell back the way she came …
Then, Lily began to jump up and down. "Can any of you give me a hand …"
"Kick me from the side …"
"Or else I won't be able to land outside!"
It took three tries to finish its sentence.
Vivian stepped forward and gave it a flying kick. "You idiot! Ahhhhh! Will you die if you jump in a parabola?! "
