Chapter 192 Entering the Main Tomb and Fighting the Mummy Army
Bang!
Amidst the dull thumping sound, the bronze gate stood as steady as a mountain.
More than a dozen rock-armored army ants, with the combined power of a large number of silver-bone skeletons, still failed to shake it.
This gate doesn't look big, but it seems to weigh more than a thousand pounds.
Moreover, the entire door is integrated, without any traces of keyholes or mechanisms.
It looks like this is another thing like the previous coffin.
If you can't find the corresponding opening method, you can only crack it by brute force.
In this area, Mo Yu already has rich practical experience.
With a wave of his hand, the rock ants rushed forward and entered the power-accumulation mode.
As the team in the front retreated, they opened their mouths and a large amount of translucent formic acid poured towards the bronze gate like heavy rain.
Hiss, white smoke soon began to rise from the bronze gate.
The buildings in the pyramid ruins seem to have similar properties. They are extremely resistant to impact and magic, but their corrosion resistance is average.
Under the corrosion of formic acid, you can clearly see that the bronze gate is gradually melting.
Mo Yu stood far at the end, with densely packed summoned creatures in front of him.
Although the trap corridor has been solved, no one can say whether there are still traps behind it, so it is still necessary to be cautious.
Under the corrosion of formic acid, the bronze gate began to show signs of melting.
At this moment, the eyes of the statue, which had been unresponsive, lit up strangely.
The next moment, a laser beam like a laser beam shot out from the eyes of the statue, sweeping from the inside to the outside.
The incident happened very suddenly. Even though the rock ant had a lot of cannon fodder blocking it in front of it, it still couldn't block the laser sweep.
Under the terrifying laser beam, a charred passage more than one meter wide was swept out among the dense group of summoned creatures.
A large number of summoned creatures were directly melted by the laser and had no ability to resist.
A lot of rock ants also died. As the main attacking force, the lasers were aimed at them from the beginning.
A total of seven rock ants were killed. Fortunately, in the process of destroying the trap corridor, more than ten rock ants were replenished from the earth ant nest tower.
Mo Yu now has more than twenty rock ants on hand, and losing seven of them is not a big deal.
Although the losses were considerable after the counterattack, the plan to dissolve the bronze gate must continue.
This time, he only sent out two rock ants.
The remaining rock ants were hidden far behind.
The second round of attacks soon began, targeting the statue at the gate.
Since this statue can trigger the counterattack mode, let's just get rid of it first.
Two rock formic acid ants stood on the left and right, five meters away from the bronze door, spraying formic acid together.
Hissing, the corrosion sound that had just stopped sounded again.
biu~biu~
The statue's two eyes are on the left and right sides, and they successfully penetrated two rock ants.
Mo Yu keenly noticed that the laser beam was a little smaller than before.
It is not known whether the statue itself was damaged by formic acid or because of its energy decay.
The third group of rock formic acid ants quickly stepped on the corpses of their companions and pressed on...
Round after round, when there were only three rock ants left dead at Mo Yu's hands, the statue's eyes finally dimmed completely.
At this moment, most of the statue has been corroded, including the outer layer of the bronze gate.
However, it is still a long way to go before breaking down the door.
From the previous collision sound, it can be heard that the thickness of this door is extremely amazing. It can even be said that this is not a door, but a wall.
It is at least one meter thick, maybe even thicker.
Now there are only three rock formic acid ants left, so the corrosion rate is naturally very slow.
Moreover, the formic acid reserves of the rock formic acid ants can only support them to spit out about twenty times. After spraying the formic acid, they can only rest and wait for recovery.
Fortunately, the summoning of the Earth Ant Nest Tower has never stopped, with 8 Earth Ant eggs produced every minute, and an average of 5% chance of producing Rock Ants.
Basically, one can be summoned every two to three minutes, and the replenishment speed is still very fast.
With the continuous reinforcement of rock formic acid ants, the bronze gate was corroded and collapsed bit by bit, and the huge gap in the middle became bigger and deeper.
I don’t know how long it took, but finally, a cool breeze blew and the bronze door was completely corroded.
At this point, you can follow the hole into the space behind the gate.
But Mo Yu was not in a hurry, but continued to corrode the gate patiently.
After all, the passage of this gate determines the speed of summoning reinforcements, so it is best to keep it completely unobstructed.
It took more than half an hour before many summoned creatures worked together to bring down the entire bronze door.
What appeared before our eyes was a vast underground palace.
Flames were burning on the walls surrounding the underground palace, illuminating the entire space with light.
With the help of the firelight, Mo Yu could roughly see the situation inside.
The overall style of the underground palace is full of the ruggedness of the desert. There are a large number of murals carved on the bright yellow walls everywhere. It does not look gloomy at all. Instead, it appears very bright under the light of the fire.
Looking inside from the entrance, you can see a row of pillars as thick as row buckets, with many hieroglyphs engraved on them.
Behind the pillars are a large number of stone carvings, so densely packed that they give the illusion of Terracotta Warriors.
Deeper in the cave, you can vaguely see a large number of coffins placed there.
Next to the coffin, there were a large number of gold and silver items piled up, sparkling with pearls and emitting an alluring glow.
Mo Yu could clearly feel that the breathing of the soldiers around him became much heavier.
Although there is not much consumption in the territory now, the desire for treasure is engraved in the bones of most creatures.
Even though they knew there was nothing useful about it, they were still inevitably attracted to it.
Mo Yu also had this feeling. He had only seen so many valuables in gold shops on Blue Star before.
But now, it is at your fingertips.
"Let's start!" Mo Yu gave the order.
Behind him, a large number of summoned creatures filed in and dispersed to every corner of the underground palace.
Their task is simple: trigger as many mechanisms and traps as possible and lure out all potential enemies.
But to Mo Yu's surprise, the summoned creatures did not trigger any traps in the underground palace.
However, they triggered something else.
"Those stone statues are moving!" Salwen was sharp-eyed and saw the changes in the stone statues in the depths at a glance.
The stones on the statue fell off, revealing monsters wrapped in bandages.
This is a mummy-like creature, and there are many types.
In just a short while, Mo Yu detected several types of mummies, including dark mummies and cursed mummies.
As soon as they appeared, they arranged themselves in neat formations and rushed towards the summoned creatures outside the underground palace.
At the forefront were more than thirty sharp-clawed mummies, followed closely by a row of mummies armed with short swords and shields, advancing aggressively towards this side.
Further behind, black mist emanated from the dark mummy's body and spread outwards like dark clouds.
"These mummies should be the elite guards of the tomb owner!"
Mo Yu had seen the mural and had a rough idea of what was going on.
The owner of the tomb mummified all his commanders and soldiers for burial. The ordinary soldiers were sealed behind the stone carvings, while the commanders lay in the coffins at the back.
These mummies showed excellent cooperation, which was far beyond what the mummies and death guard projections encountered before.
"At this point, all that's left is the last step!"
"After we deal with you, we will have cleared this pyramid ruins."
Mo Yu cheered up.
Looking at the army of mummies approaching quickly, he responded quickly.
"Queen Ant, command the rock-armored army ants to eliminate the sharp-clawed mummies that are rushing to the front."
"Salvin, Brueman, the two of you quickly lead your men to form a defense line. No matter what happens, you must guard the entrance!"
At the same time, the summoned creatures also responded quickly under Mo Yu's arrangement.
The slow-moving, crouching iron zombies formed the first line of defense at the outermost edge, and behind them were the silver-bone skeletons.
These undead creatures lack coordination and can only serve as the outermost line of defense to consume the opponent's strength.
As for ordinary skeletons, stone shadow insects, etc., they were all sent out to disrupt the mummies' formation as much as possible and provide cover for the rock-armored army ants.
Mo Yu's plan was simple. He would occupy the passage at the entrance of the underground palace and use a steady stream of summoned creatures to wear down the enemy.
The key here is to keep the entrance unobstructed.
Only in this way can we ensure the support of summoned creatures and enable them to be continuously deployed on the battlefield.
Otherwise, once the entrance is blocked, it will be difficult for Mo Yu to play out the consumption advantage of summoning creatures.
While Mo Yu was arranging the defensive formation here, the rock-armored army ants, under the command of the queen ant, had already engaged in close combat with the clawed mummies.
Both sides are offensive creatures, good at attacking but not good at defending, so they will be sent out at the first opportunity to seize the initiative.
As soon as the two met, a fierce battle broke out.
The Clawed Mummy roared and waved its sharp long claws with a metallic luster, tearing fiercely at the rock-armored army ants.
Their claws were as sharp as swords and could easily tear apart the carapaces of armored beasts. The rock-armored army ants were immediately injured by their attacks.
The rock-armored army ants were not to be outdone, and their jaws fell on them like scissors.
With a snap, the claw mummy was split into two.
The Claw Mummy's bandages are extremely tough and resistant to physical damage, but they are still unable to withstand the extreme attack power of the Rock Armored Army Ants.
But even so, the clawed mummy was not completely dead. It seemed to be unaware of pain. When it was attacked, its sharp claws pierced into the body of the rock-armored army ant.
With a "swish", the sharp claws pierced into leather, causing only slight obstruction, but easily penetrated the defense of the rock-armored army ants.
The rock-armored army ants became furious, and their jaws danced rapidly, tearing the clawed mummy into pieces.
Such battles are happening everywhere.
In general, the rock-armored army ants are slightly better than the claw mummies, especially a rare fifth-level rock-armored army ant, which can move freely among the rare fourth-level claw mummies.
In just one minute, the two sides collided and there were heavy casualties.
In the end, the rock-armored army ants successfully wiped out all the clawed mummies by virtue of their numerical advantage.
At this time, the mummy army in the rear was approaching the battlefield.
Under the command of the queen ant, the rock-armored army ants retreated quickly. The mummy army wanted to pursue them, but was firmly blocked by the large number of summoned cannon fodder that came from behind.
"Hurry up, hurry up, run!" Mo Yu urged.
Now, from the entrance of the pyramid ruins to the main tomb chamber at the end, the entire route is full of summoned creatures.
For the sake of efficiency, Mo Yu has replaced the slow-moving crouching iron corpses with the faster-moving Flame Demon Wolves.
The entire passage was filled with summoned creatures running fast.
Under this rapid march, a large number of summoned creatures poured out of the passage every minute and every second.
As soon as these summoned creatures arrived, they were immediately thrown into the battlefield.
Their role is simple, to use their lives to attack the opponent's formation, block the opponent's advance speed, and at the same time try to test the abilities of those mummies as much as possible.
Faced with the impact of a large number of summons, the mummy army remained very calm.
The shield-holding mummy in the front held up the shield in one hand and raised the long sword in the other. At the moment when he pushed away the summoned creature's attack, the long sword fell quickly and chopped the skeleton soldier into pieces.
Their formation was not disordered at all, and they pressed towards Mo Yu at a steady and slow speed.
It's like a heavy tank, slowly but firmly crushing all obstacles in front of it.
The cursed mummies and entangled mummies in the back did not take any action. Only the sword and shield mummy soldiers in the front resisted the attacks of the summoned creatures.
puff puff!
The newly arrived Fire Wolf joined the battlefield, spewing out hundreds of fireballs that rained down on the mummies in the front row.
Flames flew, and the impact of the explosion of a large number of fireballs smashed the mummy apart.
The mummies' strict formation finally began to fall apart at this moment.
Mo Yu did not miss this opportunity. He used the few remaining rock-armored army ants as spearheads and led the skeleton soldiers, fire wolves, rock-armored ants and other summoned creatures to charge forward fiercely.
Their target is the magic mummy hiding in the back.
It was only when the Flame Demon Wolf arrived that Mo Yu realized that the types of mummies' troops were far more diverse and complete than theirs.
If they defend, they may soon be at a disadvantage, so it is better for them to take the initiative and attack.
If that fails, it won’t be too late to retreat and defend.
At the same time, Salwen also led the leopard warriors to mix in and launch a wave of attacks.
The battle situation changed instantly, and the mummy's well-organized military formation was instantly shattered.
A mummy leader in armor stood out from the rear, trying to command the scattered army formation, trying to get the sword and shield mummies on the periphery to close the formation and cut off the connection with the troops in the rear of the Rock Armor Army Ants.
Then, relying on their numerical advantage, they absorbed them in the military formation.
I have to say, the idea is good.
But after all, after being transformed into an undead creature, both his command speed and the reaction speed of the mummies below are no longer comparable to before.
Therefore, even though they tried their best, it was too slow and they were soon dispersed before they could achieve any results.
"All Silver Skeletons, charge!"
Seeing an opportunity, Mo Yu made a prompt decision and sent the remaining silver skeletons into the battlefield.
The battlefield became increasingly chaotic, with summoned creatures and mummies fighting each other, unable to distinguish one from the other.
At this time, only the queen ant can maintain command of the ant colony with her powerful mental power.
Under its command, the ants showed amazing collaboration, cooperating to cut down one target after another.
But soon, an accident occurred, and the darkness summoned by the dark mummy came!
