Chapter 1226
The other rewards were fine, but 【Reed's Medal】 was a bit special. According to his estimation, Reed was currently hating him to the bone, and as for the success rate of forging equipment...
"Woof."
Xiang Bubu Wang barked. It couldn't believe it, couldn't believe that it had bluffed Reed away just like that.
"It's not unexpected. Reed is strong, but he has been trapped here for too long."
Xiang Bubu Wang looked at Su Xiao suspiciously. According to Reed's description, he was willing to stay here.
"Reed might have been willing to stay here initially, but if he had been trapped here for hundreds of years, no matter what he had to pay, as long as he could leave here, he would do it at all costs. Reed said earlier that this place was a prison, so this should be his prison."
Su Xiao began to search in Reed's residence. After searching, except for some metal ores that weren't precious and a large amount of burning materials, he didn't find anything of value.
Being able to solve Reed like this was already the best choice. First, Reed wanted to leave the tomb, and Su Xiao clearly satisfied his request, sending him to Reincarnation Paradise. With Reed's personality, he shouldn't refuse Reincarnation Paradise, or rather, he couldn't refuse.
Next time they meet, Reed's attitude would definitely be very bad. As for forming a death feud, that shouldn't be very likely. Fundamentally speaking, Su Xiao helped Reed regain his freedom, although the degree of freedom was limited. Being in Reincarnation Paradise was definitely much better than this stone house with an area of only dozens of square meters. He couldn't even see a person here, and when bored, he could only hammer. Physiological needs basically relied on hands, which was also difficult for Reed.
Moreover, there were infinite possibilities in Reincarnation Paradise. As long as Reed wasn't brain-damaged, he could see the opportunities in Reincarnation Paradise.
For enemies like Su Xiao or Reed who pursued strength in their bones, Reincarnation Paradise wasn't a terrifying place.
The hidden danger at the entrance had been solved, so of course, he had to go deep into the tomb.
"Continue."
Su Xiao looked at Goss. Goss swallowed his saliva subconsciously. Just a few minutes ago, he witnessed Reed being taken away and his whereabouts unknown. Goss was clearly panicked, thinking about whether he would encounter a similar thing.
Goss was gilding his own face. To deal with him, Su Xiao didn't need to go to such great lengths at all.
Goss scouted the path ahead, and the group continued to move forward along the stone corridor, going deep into the tomb.
The group soon passed through this stone corridor that wasn't long. When arriving at the end of the stone corridor, another metal door appeared, no different from the previous metal door.
Alisa Herbert came to the metal door reluctantly and reached her hand into the hole in the center of the metal door.
Boom.
The metal door rose, and a burst of cold air surged from behind the door. Alisa Herbert couldn't help but shiver.
Firelight emerged. As the metal door opened, it seemed to open some kind of mechanism. The oil lamp stands one by one behind the door were lit.
Behind the door was a wider stone corridor. This stone corridor was about a dozen meters wide and seven or eight meters high. On both sides of the wall, there was an iron oil lamp every dozen meters, and the fire oil inside was burning fiercely.
There weren't countless enemies rushing over. The wide stone corridor was dead silent. Su Xiao signaled to continue moving forward.
This stone corridor was very long. After moving forward for about a few hundred meters, Su Xiao saw a metal door on the left wall.
This metal door was five meters wide and eight meters high, with a sharp sword and a shield carved on the door.
Su Xiao leaned his ear against the metal door and vaguely heard footsteps inside the metal door. The footsteps were very sparse.
Alisa Herbert could open this metal door, but this wasn't a metal door that must be opened. The wide stone corridor couldn't see the end at all, and continuing forward was also fine.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Xiao decided not to open this metal door. There were unknown creatures behind the door. He didn't enter Sia Temple to kill enemies, but to find the Stone of Extinction. The Stone of Extinction was deep in the tomb.
Su Xiao and his party continued to move forward. After moving forward for dozens of meters, another metal door appeared on the right wall, still the kind of metal door that Alisa Herbert could open. This time, the pattern on the door was a long bow and sharp claws crossing.
Sword, shield, long bow, sharp claws. There were these four patterns on the two metal doors. Su Xiao didn't know what this represented for the time being.
Ignoring the two metal doors, Su Xiao decided to continue moving forward.
Moving forward for about five minutes, the wide stone corridor appeared with a turn. Goss went up to check and still found no danger.
Passing through the turn, the group continued to move forward in the stone corridor for more than a hundred meters, and the stone corridor reached its end. Behind it was an open space that wasn't small.
Su Xiao checked the open space at the end of the stone corridor. This open space was about hundreds of square meters, rectangular as a whole. In the center of the open space, there was a stone platform, and a tall man was lying on the stone platform. He had the characteristics of the Necrotic race and was also very similar to a human. The man lay flat on the stone platform as if he were dead.
The man was wearing black armor all over, about four meters tall. Humans of this height would look very thin, but the man's body proportions were very coordinated.
The Apostle's Eye floated up, and Su Xiao tried to check the other party's data.
【Comparing both sides' Intelligence attributes... You have obtained the following data.】
Name: Long Blade User Kong
Rank: Leader-level creature
Category: Necrotic, Ancient Bloodline
HP: 100%
Mana: 1250 points
Strength: 85
Agility: 80
Stamina: 80
Intelligence: 5
Charisma: 1
Skill 1: Overlord Authority (Passive Lv. 30), HP +8,000 points, Mana +1,200 points, Strength +13, Agility +13, Stamina +10.
Skill 2: Command (Passive Lv. 48), when Long Blade User Kong's HP is below 50%, it will summon all soldiers in the "Barracks" to fight for it.
Skill 3: Blade Qi (Passive Lv. 30), each slash will carry powerful blade qi.
Skill 4: Necrotic Horse (Active Lv. 30), consume 30% of maximum Mana to summon a Necrotic horse from deep within Sia Temple.
Skill 5: Riding Spin Slash (Active Lv. 42), when Long Blade User Kong is in a riding state, it swings its long blade toward the surroundings, causing 0–800 points of damage to enemies within a 10-meter range (based on the number of hits). After bearing the blade qi attack, a judgment will be triggered. If Agility is below 75 points, it will bear a 10-second bleeding state, causing 60 + 5% of lost HP damage per second. Cooldown time is 2 minutes.
Long Blade User Kong should be an elite unit responsible for guarding the entrance of Sia Temple. As for Reed earlier, that guy couldn't be counted in Sia Temple at all.
Long Blade User Kong formed a huge contrast with Reed. Su Xiao felt that besides being thick-skinned and fleshy, he could completely hang this four-meter-tall Necrotic race member up and whip it.
Reed's strength earlier really shocked Su Xiao, so he was very careful along the way. But the current situation was eye-stinging. This small boss responsible for guarding the door seemed... a bit weak.
Goss also seemed to notice that Long Blade User Kong's strength wasn't great. He breathed a sigh of relief. He could handle this level of enemy alone.
"Xiang Bubu, Amu, you guard this stone corridor."
Su Xiao was letting Xiang Bubu Wang and Amu guard the rear. The two metal doors he saw earlier made him very concerned, although those two metal doors shouldn't be opened.
Su Xiao drew the long sword from his waist. In the past, he fought elite plot characters to the death, but now, he seemed to be able to hang and beat this small boss who was tall but had average strength.
Of course, average strength was only for Su Xiao. For more than 90% of Tier 3 contractors, Long Blade User Kong's strength definitely wasn't weak. This guy didn't have many skills, but the skill levels were all very high.
Su Xiao walked toward the stone platform in the center of the open space not fast or slow. Long Blade User Kong was lying flat on the stone platform, with a long-handled blade placed beside it. This thing was generally used by cavalry, and Long Blade User Kong's long-handled blade belonged to a large model, at least five meters long, with cold light flashing on the blade edge.
When Su Xiao approached Long Blade User Kong within twenty meters, Long Blade User Kong, who was lying on the stone platform, suddenly opened its eyes. Those were a pair of green eyes, as if ghost fire was burning in its eyes.
Long Blade User Kong, who was at least four meters tall, stood up from the stone platform. The metal helmet wrapped most of its head, only revealing a pair of eyes. There were many breathing holes in the mouth and nose position, but whether this guy still had breathing was a mystery.
"Hoo~"
Long Blade User Kong took a deep breath. It seemed to have come alive from a fake death state. Its first reaction was to grab the long-handled blade beside it.
Long Blade User Kong stood up. It stood on the stone platform, its green eyes looking straight at Su Xiao.
"Kanoti (Unknown language, not Necrotic language)."
Long Blade User Kong waved the long-handled blade with both hands, and waves of evil wind spread to the surroundings, its momentum extremely astonishing.
Bang!
Rubble collapsed, Su Xiao disappeared from the spot. When he appeared again, he was already on the stone platform, the long sword in his hand slashing toward Long Blade User Kong from top to bottom.
While a crisp sound came, the blade edge of the long-handled blade in Long Blade User Kong's hand collapsed a piece.
Su Xiao spread his legs and exerted force with his left arm.
With a clang, the armor collided with the rock. Because Long Blade User Kong couldn't withstand Su Xiao's monster strength, it knelt directly on the stone platform, kneeling in front of Su Xiao.
Su Xiao's body leaned low, a side kick.
Bang!
Su Xiao kicked Long Blade User Kong in the cheek. The metal helmet there immediately dented, and Long Blade User Kong flew out with a swoosh.
With another loud bang, Long Blade User Kong crashed into the stone wall dozens of meters away. It sat in the corner of the wall, shaking its head, clearly stunned by Su Xiao's thunderous kick.
