The strange and powerful monster was wiped out instantly. Hank, the young man next to Wang Zhifan, opened his eyes in shock and stared blankly at the place where the monster disappeared on the lake.
Wang Zhifan held the golden crown retrieved by Bing Shou in his hand and looked at the explanatory text that appeared on it.
[The shining crown of the ancient king (excellent)]
[This is a priceless ancient crown, made of extremely rare astral aura gold. It is not only strong and light, but also emitting light forever. The luxurious light that makes people addicted is a rare treasure in the world.
In addition to its monetary value, it is said that it also has other functions. The royal family of a certain country has been looking for it. 】
"Excellent-level items, but there are no clear functional attributes marked on them. What's going on?"
Wang Zhifan looked left and right with the glowing gold crown in his hand. Wang Zhifan was a little confused at the moment.
He has seen a lot of excellent and even higher-level items, but this is the first time he has seen something like this in his hand that has almost no practical use other than to shine and sell money. Perhaps the introduction of this crown is about a certain country. The royal family is looking for it is the key to value.
Without much hesitation, he handed this thing to the young man Hank standing beside him, indicating that he could give it to him.
Hank took it with trembling hands, his face full of disbelief, he raised his head and said to him:
"Give this to me? It looks too valuable..."
"It's called the Shining Crown, it's really valuable, and a royal family of a country is looking for it, you sell it to the royal family, your brother The money for my sister’s medical treatment is definitely enough.”
Wang Zhifan then explained to let Hank understand that this thing could solve his dilemma.
"Are you... urging me to leave?"
After hearing this, Hank held the glowing crown in his hands, looking a little embarrassed.
"What? Your goal has been achieved. If you go back early, wouldn't you be able to raise money for your younger siblings' medical treatment?"
Wang Zhifan did not hide his intention. He did feel that it was not easy to perform well with a child around him.
"But... the return portal won't be opened until tomorrow at the earliest. It's useless for me to go back so soon."
Hank responded immediately.
"That's something you need to consider, and it has nothing to do with me! If you insist on following me, I can't guarantee your safety later!"
Seeing that driving them away failed, Wang Zhifan spoke seriously to let this indigenous boy know the seriousness of the matter.
You can't blame him for turning against him. It's really not a pleasant experience to be a nanny for a stranger who has no fighting ability.
"Please rest assured! I can take care of myself! I have wanted to explore this place since I was a child, and there is no way I can go back so soon!"
After hearing this, the young man still insisted on following him. , looking a little stubborn.
"It's up to you...your greed will probably harm you."
Wang Zhifan left the last sentence and turned towards the deep passage that appeared around the underground lake.
His walking speed was not very fast, but it was still not comparable to that of a young man. Especially after entering the passage, the young man slowed down because of fear and was soon left behind.
When he easily crossed the 20-meter-wide deep pit in the passage, the young man could only stay where he was, unable to continue to follow.
"Sure enough, the difficulty becomes more and more difficult the further back you go. People who are not agile enough or can't fly will not be able to get to the back."
Walking forward alone, he suddenly felt much relaxed physically and mentally. Wang Zhifan crossed the deep After a while, he came out of the passage and came to a stone chamber that was not too wide. Except for a tall statue of a two-horned monster, there was nothing else in the stone chamber.
He looked at the statue and found that it was indeed made of some kind of stone. It was not a monster in disguise, but there were other ethereal things attached to the stone.
Sure enough, the next second, he heard some kind of bewitching low voice coming from his ears:
"Worship purgatory..."
" Enter purgatory..."
"Become purgatory..."
These sounds continued in a loop, lingering in his ears like the buzzing of mosquitoes, as if they were going to exert some profound spiritual influence on him, but unfortunately, Wang Zhifan only felt noisy after listening to them for a few seconds.
So he immediately drew his sword out of its sheath, preparing to end this stone statue that only made nonsense with one blow.
However, a dramatic scene occurred. Just after he drew his sword, one side of the stone wall of the stone room automatically opened upward, revealing a wider palace.
In the palace, two rows of figures can be seen orderly on both sides, with an empty throne in the middle.
Wang Zhifan stepped forward with his eyes wide open. The two rows of figures suddenly turned their heads to look at him. The scene was quite horrifying.
It can be seen that these figures are different from the corpses seen before. They are more like a group of "living people". There is no trace of corruption on their bodies. It is easy to distinguish their appearance and adventurer profession, except for their fanatical expressions. It was ferocious, as if everyone was in a state of madness.
"Worship Purgatory! Enter Purgatory! Become Purgatory!"
Many figures lined up in two rows then shouted loudly to Wang Zhifan who walked in, with hatred and anger in their eyes, It seemed that some of Wang Zhifan's actions did not satisfy them.
"You are so crazy... you think I will join you?"
Wang Zhifan suddenly showed disdain, saw through the intentions of these guys, and then slashed them out without mercy. !
In an instant, the crescent-shaped sword light, which was more than ten meters long, suddenly penetrated the two rows of fanatical fallen adventurers in front of them, destroying them all. It was not until it reached half a meter in front of the throne that the remaining power dissipated sharply.
His sword was so fast and powerful that it seemed that these fallen adventurers were just decorations.
In fact, any experienced professional here can see that all fallen professionals maintain their peak combat effectiveness and can launch a violent and orderly group offensive against the intruders.
Wang Zhifan then stepped forward to the throne that blocked the aftermath of his sword light, and confirmed that this thing was the so-called reward, and the grade was not low. 【Throne of Purgatory (Epic)】
[King of Purgatory: Sitting on this throne, you can summon a purgatory army of up to one million individuals. The targets killed by your purgatory army will also be automatically resurrected to join and become a member of the army. 】
[The Majesty of the King: You can only control the army of purgatory by sitting on the throne, otherwise the army of purgatory will fall into a state of disorder and chaos. 】
[The king will not fall easily: Before your army is annihilated, as long as you sit on the throne, you can automatically resist damage, and the damage you suffer will be shared equally by the entire army. 】
“A chair that can summon an army of millions? The target you kill will automatically join the army? If you sit on the chair and the army doesn’t kill you, you won’t die? With this thing, wouldn’t you be invincible?”
After reading the description of the throne, Wang Zhifan couldn't help but sigh that he had encountered a ruthless person. Just by reading the description, you can know how powerful it is. An army of millions is no joke.
"But there seems to be some hidden danger inside... Can this army be dispersed and disappeared after being summoned? Only by sitting on the throne can you control the army. Doesn't it mean that once you sit on it, you won't dare to come down?"
After thinking for a moment, He also discovered that there were many problems with this throne. It didn't look like it was helping the owner to conquer the world, but more like it was looking for a commander for the purgatory army to promote it.
"It doesn't matter, just use it with caution and accept it first."
Without much hesitation, Wang Zhifan lifted the throne and transferred it into the space ring.
He then walked to a side door of the palace and went to the next treasure storage place.
In this way, relying on his strong overall strength, he swept through the maze at an astonishing speed, eliminated the remaining monsters, and captured all the treasures they guarded.
During this period, he obtained many excellent-level items, but never encountered epic-level items again, until he reached the very depths of the maze and came to a blazing blue fire.
The whole fire is five meters high and eight meters in diameter, but you won’t feel hot when you get close to it. Instead, it is slightly cold, which is more consistent with the blue tone it presents.
In the center of the blue flames, you can see a beautiful girl kneeling in front of an ornate sword stuck in the ground, silently closing her eyes and praying.
The girl has brilliant long golden hair, snow-white skin and an impeccably delicate face. There are also broad white wings on her back. Her image is no different from the legendary angel.
The most important thing is that it can be easily seen that she is alive and in peak condition, with a very powerful aura exuding from her body.
As Wang Zhifan's footsteps approached, the being who seemed to be an angel slowly opened his eyes, revealing a pair of silver eyes without any emotion.
But what surprised Wang Zhifan was that the owner of these lifeless silver eyes not only did not attack, but also told him to return and leave.
"Go back, adventurer! There are no treasures you desire here! The unnecessary battle will only add another cold corpse here!"
Wang Zhifan listened silently and glanced at Passing the cold blue flames, and the angel standing up slowly in the flames, he asked a little puzzledly:
"If there is no treasure, why did you show up here to challenge? And the cold corpse you mentioned, why didn't I see any traces at all?"
His question suddenly made the surrounding air tense. Stagnated, and then the angel in the blue fire drew out the long sword in front of him and responded:
"Whether you believe it or not, there is no treasure... As for the corpse, because you are the first person to arrive here in two hundred years, I haven't had time to make it yet."
The angel in the blue fire finished, He raised the gorgeous long sword in his hand and pointed it at Wang Zhifan, who was not far away in front of him. The warning was extremely obvious.
Facing this BOSS, whom he saw for the first time since entering the maze, Wang Zhifan's fighting spirit was aroused.
He felt that the opponent was very powerful, much stronger than all the targets he had fought in this maze combined, and there was no suspected reward around him, but he just wanted to give it a try.
"Thank you for the reminder...but I think we must have a battle today!"
After saying that, he also drew his sword out of its sheath, bursting out with all his strength and violently colliding with the angel holding the sword. Together!
Boom!
A terrifying shock wave was generated at the center of the confrontation between the two, sweeping madly towards the surrounding darkness.
For the first time, Wang Zhifan discovered that the weapon struck by his Qingdi Sword was not broken. The long sword supported the strong blow of the Qingdi Sword, and the angelic power bathed in the blue fire was also extremely powerful. It actually fought against him. During the fight, he did not fall behind at all, and there was even a faint tendency to counterattack.
"What a strong opponent...the basic attributes are terrifyingly high...let's see how the fighting skills are!"
When he met his opponent, he was not surprised but overjoyed, and used the exquisiteness of the Dameng Sword Sutra. The superb sword skills and the Wind and Thunder Stepping Heaven Technique launched a fierce battle with the angel in front of them. The fighting figures of the two appeared in more than a hundred places almost instantly, which ordinary people could not even watch.
This kind of enthusiasm for fighting is because he hasn't encountered a decent opponent for a long time. For a long time in the past, the enemies he encountered could only end up being killed or crushed by him. They were evenly matched. The condition occurs rarely.
For example, if the guardian in the Dead Souls Dungeon did not have the protection of the underworld, he would not be able to fight him for that long, and he would not be considered a qualified opponent in the true sense.
But the existence of the suspected angel in front of her was different. She actually kept up with Wang Zhifan's attack rhythm. No matter whether it was strength, speed or skill, she was impeccable. In addition, the long sword in her hand was not inferior to the Qingdi Sword, which was enough to give Wang Zhifan a powerful attack. substantial pressure.
Wang Zhifan became more courageous as he faced a powerful enemy. At first, he only competed with the opponent on basic abilities. The swords of both sides came and went. The powerful and simple attacks formed a terrifying shock wave, gradually changing the surrounding terrain.
Later on, he gradually used his own special skills, such as Menghua Daqian, Floating Life Like a Dream, etc., and his clones filled the opponent's field of vision throughout the process.
Angel was a little slow at this stage, probably because he was not familiar with such attack methods, and was brought into his advantage range by Wang Zhifan.
However, she quickly found a way to deal with it. She exploded with all her strength and split open the dream world with a sword. The blue flame cleared all her body. She even chanted the great power of the horizontal sword and launched a stunt confrontation with Wang Zhifan, causing the entire maze to collapse. There were violent shakings.
The two sides fought for a full two hours before the result suddenly came about, because Angel, who had fought so hard, took the initiative to admit defeat, and she did not want to continue fighting.
"Humans, the battle between us is meaningless. I admit that I have lost. Please stop."
At this moment, the blue flames around the angel were much smaller than at first. , could only cover her whole body and could no longer extend to the surrounding area. Perhaps this change was an important reason for her to admit defeat.
"You haven't lost yet, it can only be considered a tie at the moment."
Wang Zhifan paused his offensive after hearing this. His endurance was extremely strong, and his current state was not much different from the beginning of the battle.
"But if you really want to end the battle, you must confess something, such as where the real reward is, who you are, and why you appear here."
Wang Zhifan felt that this angel was full of weirdness. He is obviously a high-level being with well-equipped equipment, but he stays in jail in this deserted underground. There must be a profound reason. (End of this chapter)
