Chapter 191: The Smashing Trap Corridor
zizi...

A large amount of white smoke came out of the coffin, like clouds and mist, covering it completely.

Under Mo Yu's arrangement, a layer of formic acid is now filled in the coffin.

Next to them, there were two rock formic acid ants continuously spewing formic acid into the coffin.

Unfortunately, in the battle just now with the Death Guardian Statue, the Rock Ants responsible for attacking the statue were positioned closer to the inside and were almost completely damaged in that battle.

These two had just been summoned again through the Earth Ant Nest Tower, otherwise the coffin would have been filled with formic acid.

Under the corrosion of a large amount of formic acid, the coffin reacted violently, and the white smoke was clear evidence of this.

effective!
The coffin's physical resistance is indeed very strong, but its corrosion resistance is quite average.

Under the slow corrosion of formic acid, the coffin was gradually decaying.

After waiting for about ten minutes, I heard a loud crash and all the formic acid in the coffin poured out.

pass!

The passage that had been nowhere to be found finally appeared before everyone's eyes as formic acid corroded through the bottom layer of the coffin.

The Stef warrior next to it tried to kick it, and the coffin shook.

Seeing this, several people nearby stepped forward and worked together to flip it aside.

There appeared a pitch-black hole at the bottom of the coffin.

It was pitch black below, and I couldn't see anything.

Bruman took a torch and threw it down the cave entrance. With the help of the firelight, he could see that it was a passage several people wide.

It has a certain inclination angle, but it is very steep and people cannot stand on it. Once you enter, you will quickly slide down the passage.

But no one knows what is at the end of the tunnel.

It could be a mechanism, or it could be a monster.

What is certain is that there will be nothing good waiting.

The leopard warrior leader Salwen was eager to try, and so was Brulman. These two guys had a bit of adventurous nature in their bones.

But since Mo Yu didn't give the order, they could only endure it.

He had no confidence in his heart, so he naturally would not let his soldiers go down to die.

At this time, it is the turn of the summoned creature to come on stage.

In the previous battle, although the Death Guard Statue killed most of the summoned creatures, in just a short while, a large number of summoned creatures accumulated again.

At the command, these emotionless summoned creatures jumped down through the cave like dumplings.

One... Two...

After summoning more than thirty creatures, Mo Yu received feedback from the queen ant.

According to the images that some earth ants saw before they died, there was an extremely large cave under the passage.

There are a lot of monsters in the cave, they are scorpion-like creatures.

As soon as the summoned creatures appeared, they immediately attracted their attention, and now all of them were guarding the open space under the passage.

As soon as the summoned creatures fall, they will be quickly killed by them.

After detecting the information, Mo Yu frowned and temporarily stopped letting the summoned creatures continue to die.

The width of this cave entrance is limited, and only two to three summoned creatures can be transported in at a time.

At this rate, as many as go down will die, and it will be difficult for any summoned creature to gain a foothold.

But the problem now is that the summoned creatures in front cannot gain a foothold, and those following behind are just committing suicide.

No matter how many there are, the amount transported each time is limited, so it is difficult to break through the defense line of the monsters below.

In this situation, the best way is to send down a few stronger fighters, preferably those with range attacks.

Clear the space quickly and the team behind can catch up and break through their blockade.

Or they may have extremely strong survivability, and can withstand the attacks of monsters and make room for those coming behind.

But the problem is that due to the size of the cave entrance, the huge rock-armored giant ants cannot go down.

Elite fighters like Bruman and Salwen can easily become consumables if thrown down.

For a moment, he was distressed.

With a thought, the consumption of summoned creatures continued, and the more elite summoned creatures such as the Silver Bone Skeletons and Rock Armor Army Ants were temporarily waiting on the side.

Since I can't think of a solution, I'll just try the stupid way first.

At the same time, Mo Yu commanded the hidden iron corpses to escape underground.

If these ground creatures could drill directly to the bottom, it would be much easier. They just need to accumulate a large number of buried iron corpses.

One charge can open up the situation.

Unfortunately, the ground was too hard and the buried corpse couldn't get down at all.

The entire pyramid ruins are much harder than ordinary ground, and this becomes more so as one goes down.

It was already difficult enough to go down to the upper pyramid ruins with the corpses buried deep in the ground, so it would be even more difficult.

The Earth Spear Tower was also greatly affected, and the power of the summoned Earth Spears was greatly reduced.

This was the first time that Mo Yu knew that the Earth Spear Tower would encounter such restrictions.

The more solid the ground, the more difficult it is to summon the Earth Spear, and the less powerful it is.

It seems that defense towers are not omnipotent.

Here, the stone shadow insects can escape, but their strength is too weak.

Mo Yu temporarily asked them to wait down there and come out at the critical moment.

In this way, the continuous summoning of creatures consumed more than half an hour.

Around him, there were more than thirty rock-armored army ants and more than seven hundred silver-bone skeletons.

Among this group of silver-bone skeletons, there are more than thirty sword-and-shield skeletons holding shields.

In addition, there are a large number of buried iron corpses.

"Almost there!" Mo Yu muttered to himself.

This was an elite team he organized to pave the way for Salwen and his men. After this batch of summoned creatures had finished rushing out, Salwen and his men would go down to open up the situation.

Of course, there is still some preparation to be done before that.

That is to weaken the monsters gathered below the passage through defense towers such as the Bone Decay Tower and the Zombie Tower.

A part of them have been weakened just now, and there are about a hundred left. The weakening of all the monsters near the passage has been completed.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, I felt that the effect was almost there.

Mo Yu waved his hand, and more than fifty lying iron zombies jumped down to attack the front, and the stone shadow insects rose up.

Then came the silver-bone skeleton soldiers.

The first to go down were the Sword and Shield Skeleton Soldiers, followed by the Blade Skeleton Soldiers, the Great Sword Skeleton Soldiers...

Behind the undead troops are the rock-armored army ants.

Then came Bluman, Salvin and others.

The battle below suddenly broke out violently.

Because of the weakening of several cursed towers, the monsters near the passage did not fully react at first.

As the buried iron corpses fell to the ground, the skeleton soldiers followed closely behind.

These undead spirits had no intelligence. Once they got up from the ground, they started swinging their weapons and killing people crazily.

It was not until the rock-armored army ants landed that they quickly established a defense line near the passage, creating space for Salvin and others who landed last.

After that, there will be a steady stream of summoned creatures.

Mo Yu stood beside the passage, with only the summoned creatures to protect him. Through the queen ant, he roughly understood the situation below.

Now the team has basically gained a foothold and is guarding the passage, relying on the support of a steady stream of summoned creatures to kill those scorpion monsters.

The strength of those scorpions is not weak, there are both second and third level ones, and there are a lot of them.

However, as the team maintained its formation and continued to consume their energy, their numbers were decreasing rapidly.

After waiting for more than two hours, the queen ant sent a message saying it was over.

Mo Yu exhaled and jumped into the cave.

At the moment of jumping, a question suddenly occurred to his mind...how to get back?

In certain special terrains, the Return to City spell cannot be activated.

Why didn’t you test it out first when you just entered the pyramid ruins?
With this thought in mind, after a jolt, Mo Yu landed steadily in the cave below.

Inevitably, I fell a little, but with the protection of the defense tower's armor BUFF, this degree of fall was nothing.

Mo Yu stood up. After a brief period of adaptation, the darkness in front of him gradually changed from a completely unclear black to a vague dimness.

After his body had been strengthened many times, he now had a slight night vision ability.

In this environment, it is no longer completely dark and you can still see something.

I stepped on it and found it was soft yet hard and a bit painful to step on.

Looking down, I saw a thick layer of yellowish-brown scorpion corpses on the ground.

These scorpions are not big, about the size of an average paparazzi, but they are much larger than ordinary scorpions.

Sand scorpions, through reconnaissance techniques, Mo Yu learned their names.

They didn't leave any useful loot behind. It seemed that all the gains were in the final main tomb chamber.

Salwen, Bluman and others sat among the scorpion corpses, silently recovering their strength.

"There is a road leading forward on the left!" The queen ant's voice sounded beside Mo Yu's ears.

Before Mo Yu came down, it had already commanded its earth ants to begin exploring the cave.

"Okay, keep going down."

Mo Yu ended his communication with the queen ant, looked at everyone in the cave, and announced: "Everyone, take half an hour to recover. After half an hour, we will continue to explore!"

After hearing his words, some of the leopard warriors and minotaur warriors who were still tense lay on the ground without caring about their image.

Mo Yu took out bread, water and other food from his backpack and distributed them.

Then he looked at the passage leading to the depths of the pyramid.

The straight-line distance from this location to the ground is more than 800 meters.

It is precisely because of this that a considerable number of defense towers such as the Golden Bone Tower and the Skeleton Resurrection Tower are unable to function.

As you continue down, there will be more defense towers that are out of range.

This means that not only will Mo Yu lose some of the long-range support from the defense tower, but the Son of the Tower defense BUFF on his body will also be greatly weakened.

Fortunately, there are several summoning towers, so the summoned creatures have a relatively wide range of activities.

At least it can ensure that there are enough cannon fodder to explore the way and consume.

"I hope it's not too far!" Mo Yu prayed silently.

The half-hour break ended quickly.

During this period, the earth ants have completed the detection of the passage.

We just need to go forward about another four or five hundred meters to reach the final destination.

The team soon set off again and walked forward along the passage.

After walking about a hundred meters forward, the passage changed from an uneven rock cave to a very regular one.

There is a very flat floor under your feet, and rough murals are engraved on the wall panels on both sides.

It probably tells the story of how the owner of the tomb expanded his power and how he went to his demise.

His enemies were some things that looked like mechas. Mo Yu suspected that these mechas might be creatures from the mechanical family.

It was a very simple story, not particularly valuable. At most it helped Mo Yu get to know the two races.

After the mural was finished, everyone came to a corridor about fifty meters long.

There were many corpses of earth ants lying on this corridor.

At the end, there is an ancient bronze door, engraved with the stone sculpture of a monster with a dog's head and a human body that we had seen before.

"There are many different traps on the corridor ahead, and they seem to be able to be triggered repeatedly." The Queen Ant explained the situation to Mo Yu.

This corridor is a veritable trap corridor.

As he was speaking, a ground ant quickly moved its long legs and crawled in.

Before they had climbed far, three giant axes flew down in a row from above the corridor, cutting the earth ants into pieces, and then smoothly sank into the ceiling above.

The next summoned creature passed by and the great axe fell again.

However, this time the skeleton soldier was a bronze skeleton, and it ran quite fast, and it managed to run past before the giant axe fell.

But after taking a few steps, he was smashed to pieces by a row of spears that shot out from the ground.

There are many mechanisms in the corridor, basically one for every two steps.

Moreover, these mechanisms are not like the one-time mechanisms outside that will become ineffective after being triggered, but can be triggered repeatedly.

"Go on, I don't believe these mechanisms are perpetual motion machines." Mo Yu ordered.

He doesn't have much else under his command, but he has plenty of cannon fodder.

The crouching corpse dragged its limping leg up, dying under the giant axe...

The earth ant tried to cross the trap along the wall next to it, but it triggered the stone wall to squeeze...

Even after nearly a hundred summoned creatures were sent down, the traps in the corridor were still full of energy.

Mo Yu realized that this was not a solution. Maybe this thing was not a perpetual motion machine, but the opponent's energy core would probably be extremely difficult to consume.

He chose to change strategy and destroy the trap!

That's right, just trigger the traps and then destroy them.

For example, the fallen giant axes. As long as these giant axes are destroyed, without the axes, the trap will naturally become a decoration.

This task was given to the brave summoned creatures.

Among them, the skeleton soldiers, which have no combat capability, are responsible for triggering traps in front.

The hidden iron zombies, silver skeletons, rock-armored army ants and other strong ones followed closely behind to cause damage.

There are also those stone shadow insects hiding in the stone walls, who are doing their best to try to attack the mechanisms in the walls.

The core's rotating shafts and mechanisms were protected and they could not get close, so they could only try their best to attack the traps themselves.

Soon, the three giant axes were successfully corroded by the rock acid ants.

The following ground spike spears were also broken one by one by the summoned creatures.

Poison gas, corrosive jets... crossbows, corpses blocking the way... pits, filling up...

Move forward and destroy along the way.

I'm afraid the designers of these traps would never have thought that they could be cracked in this way.

Mo Yu finally managed to pass through the fifty-meter-long corridor at the cost of damaging thousands of summoned creatures.

Behind him, there was a mess, and the corridor was littered with the corpses of summoned creatures and traces of fire and smashing.

At this point, the only thing standing in Mo Yu's way was the bronze door.
