Chapter 307
A harsh buzzing sound rang out, the symbols on the console suddenly lit up, and beams of red laser light shot out from the gaps in the console, weaving into a net of death!
"Damn! What's going on!" The Interstellar Knight yelled, jumping backward fiercely.
The Nebula Sage and the Star Spirit Scholar were not so lucky; they were closest to the console and were trapped in it almost the moment the laser appeared.
"Damn! This thing really has an automatic defense system!" The Interstellar Knight clicked his tongue; the density of this laser net was simply more exaggerated than any defense system he had ever seen.
"Must find a way to save them!" Zhang Cheng's brows locked in a frown; the energy fluctuation of this laser net was extremely strong, and rushing in rashly would probably be ominous.
The Light Messenger also stared nervously at the two trapped people, "Sage! Scholar! Are you okay?" The Nebula Sage's voice came from the laser net, "Fine, although this laser net is dense, the energy output is unstable, and there is room to dodge, but..." His voice suddenly stopped.
"But what?" Zhang Cheng pressed.
"But... this console seems to have started some kind of self-destruct program!" The Nebula Sage's tone was grave, "I feel the entire building is shaking!"
At the same time, the Blue Star merchant was jumping in anxiety to the side, "Oh! What time is it! Forget about the console! Hurry up and take the energy crystals around! This thing looks like it's about to explode!" He pointed to the crystals emitting a faint blue light scattered around the console, his eyes lighting up.
"Shut up!" The Interstellar Knight glared at him fiercely, "Now is treasure important or life important?!" "Oh, this... this is of course life important! But..." The Blue Star merchant still wanted to argue, but was coldly interrupted by Zhang Cheng, "Now is not the time to discuss this, Sage, Scholar, you try your best to hold on, we'll find a way to save you!"
The Star Spirit Scholar's voice was anxious, "Zhang Cheng, don't worry about us, this console... it... it is releasing some kind of energy... I feel... I feel..." His words suddenly broke off, replaced by a series of rapid breathing sounds.
"Scholar! Scholar! What's wrong with you!" The Nebula Sage's voice was also full of worry.
Zhang Cheng's heart sank; he knew the situation was not good.
Just then, the Interstellar Knight suddenly said: "Let me try!" He stretched his muscles, a flash of excited light in his eyes... "Wait!" Zhang Cheng just wanted to stop him, but it was already too late...
The Interstellar Knight grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, "Watch closely!" Before the words fell, his figure flashed, darting into the laser net like a ghost.
Those dense red laser beams danced around him, but always brushed past, as if he possessed the ability to predict the future.
"Damn, this operation makes my scalp numb!" The Blue Star merchant watched in a daze from the side; he had originally thought the Interstellar Knight was throwing his life away, but didn't expect this guy to actually be at ease in the laser net.
The Interstellar Knight dodged the lasers while searching for the trap's control device.
"Left! Left! Oh, right, right, that's the red button!" The Nebula Sage pointed the way for him inside the laser net.
"Received!" The Interstellar Knight did a slide, dodging a laser coming head-on, then punched the red button fiercely.
With a "click," the laser net instantly disappeared, and the Nebula Sage and the Star Spirit Scholar slumped on the ground in a sorry state, gasping for air.
"Thanks, brother! You really are my life-saving benefactor!" The Nebula Sage said gratefully.
"Small matter, basic operation, don't be 6." The Interstellar Knight waved his hand, looking light and airy.
Before everyone could recover, a hair-raising roar suddenly came from the depths of the building.
Immediately after, a group of strange-looking creatures surged out from the darkness.
They were covered in spikes, spraying green corrosive liquid from their mouths; one look told them they were not good characters.
"Holy crap! What ghost thing!" The Interstellar Knight yelled, drawing his weapon and meeting them.
The starship captain and other warriors also joined the battle one after another; for a time, lasers shot everywhere, and the roar was deafening.
The number of these alien creatures far exceeded their imagination, and they were not afraid of death; even if beaten to a pulp, they still frantically lunged at everyone, spraying corrosive liquid.
Everyone gradually felt a bit strained, their bodies stained with quite a bit of corrosive liquid, bringing waves of burning pain.
"Can't hold on! There are too many of these guys!" A starship warrior shouted loudly.
Just then, a heaven-shaking roar came from the depths of the building, and the ground trembled with it... "What is that..." The Interstellar Knight's expression changed, muttering to himself.
Before the roar ended, a massive object broke through the wall, its size comparable to a small starship, covered in thick armor, flashing with metallic luster.
It swung its giant claws, and with one hit, it swept several starship warriors away like broken rag dolls.
"Damn, this boss is too big!" The Interstellar Knight couldn't help but complain, "How much money do you have to spend to beat this?"
Zhang Cheng's brows locked in a frown, observing this giant creature calmly.
"Its armor is too thick, conventional weapons cannot penetrate it at all. But its eyes..." His gaze flashed, "Its eyes don't seem to be protected by armor."
"Got it!" The Interstellar Knight instantly understood Zhang Cheng's meaning, "Brothers, focus fire on its eyes! Its weakness is there!"
Laser beams and energy bullets poured down like raindrops onto the giant creature's eyes.
The giant creature swung its claws frantically, trying to block the attack, but its movements were ultimately a step too slow.
Several laser beams hit its eyes precisely, erupting with dazzling light.
The giant creature let out a painful wail, its massive body collapsed with a crash, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Seeing this, the other alien creatures lost their fighting spirit and fled in all directions.
"Done!" The Interstellar Knight let out a long sigh of relief, wiping the sweat from his forehead, "Fortunately, this boss is a glass cannon, otherwise we would have been finished today."
Before everyone could celebrate the victory, the console suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and a strange energy fluctuation spread out... The Light Messenger suddenly felt a wave of dizziness; she reached out to support her forehead and whispered: "I... I don't feel very well..." The Light Messenger's soft fingers touched gently, bright white light flowed and flickered, and the wounds on the injured warriors healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"The milk is very sufficient, Light Goddess!" The Interstellar Knight exaggeratedly performed a worship gesture, "This wave of healing, directly full health resurrection!" Other warriors also thanked the Light Messenger one after another, their eyes full of gratitude.
The gentle light reflected on her face, adding a few more points of holiness.
Everyone gathered around the console again.
The Star Spirit Scholar had two dark circles under his eyes, rubbing his hands excitedly: "Brothers, I understand! This thing not only controls the entire building but also hides a big secret!" He pointed to the light spots flickering on the screen and said: "This place hides treasure! Super much of it!"
"Damn, really?" The Interstellar Knight's eyes lit up, "This dungeon adventure is going to make a fortune!"
The Nebula Sage pushed up his glasses, his tone carrying a hint of worry: "Things are probably not that simple. The console code shows that this location is protected by a powerful energy field, even more powerful than the 'Glass Cannon' BOSS we encountered before."
Zhang Cheng's expression was grave, his fingers tapping lightly on the cold metal surface of the console.
"Wealth is sought in danger. We must get this treasure!" His eyes flashed with firm light.
The Star Spirit Scholar called up the interstellar map and marked the treasure location.
"Coordinates locked! Brothers, let's go!"
The starship tore through the sky and sped toward the treasure location.
Zhang Cheng stood on the bridge, looking at the flickering starlight ahead, an inexplicable premonition rising in his heart.
This treasure hunt journey is destined not to be peaceful...
"Report! Abnormal energy fluctuations discovered ahead!" The pilot's voice suddenly rang out, breaking the tranquility on the bridge.
Zhang Cheng turned his head abruptly, looking at the energy readings displayed on the screen, his pupils shrinking suddenly... "This... this energy..."
