the last king of darkness

Chapter 336 The Guardian

The source of the regional crisis is near the entrance to the underground world.

After the underground world collapsed, the entire area became a forbidden area.

The closer Rhodes got to the entrance, the more he could feel the powerful spiritual power of the Queen of Worms.

It was a substantial touch, making the air sticky, as if full of malice.

This is the first time that Rhodes has come into contact with such a powerful psychic energy, even surpassing the original abyss serpent.

Lingshi's vision was distorted, and he couldn't see very far.

Worst of all, the ant colony also grows stronger as the queen's psionic powers grow stronger.

Sometimes, a fast star shuttle can't even kill an ordinary demonized ant.

Rhodes had to increase the strength of Star Shuttle, which also greatly slowed down their efficiency.

But everyone's fighting spirit was even more high-spirited.

Because, this means that they are approaching the source of disaster.

At 10 yards from the entrance, the temple warriors gradually gathered. Rhodes could already directly see the fluctuations of the battle in the distance, but the number of demonized ants also began to increase sharply, and a large number of king ants appeared.

Under the blessing of the queen's powerful spiritual power, the king ant became extremely brave. Its whole body was glowing with a layer of white light, brandishing the insect sickle and rampaging, and its deep spiritual power defense prevented many attacks from taking effect.

Rhodes must use the full star shuttle, otherwise it cannot shake its spiritual defense.

The fast star shuttle hits it like scraping.

At this time, the gap in strength among the crowd became obvious. Heman became the well-deserved front core of the team, and only he could withstand the impact of Wang Ant from the front.

Lannister has retreated to the middle position, gave up melee combat, and can only continuously launch wind blade scraping.

Celie became the only one who could stand by Herman's side, and her special silver liquefaction property prevented her from receiving a fatal blow.

Everyone else took a back seat.

Every attack of the king ant has a powerful spiritual shock wave, which is a kind of range shock, which will cause the soul to be uncoordinated and make people very uncomfortable.

Rhodes is the strongest firepower dealer in the team. Ten complete star shuttles hit at the same time, which can knock the king ant queen back to the ground.

Ryan's scarlet lightning in Green Grass Town was also impressive. The huge red lightning ripped through the king ant's spiritual defense like a claw, greatly increasing the damage it received in the next few tens of seconds.

The only weakness is the long time between casts.

Frank of Mushroom City can make mud and rocks entangle the king ant like vines, interfering with its attack and actions.

Only poor Tyrion was ordered not to attack, because it would blow up Herman, who was in the front position. The speed of the stone cannon was too slow, and it was useless to deal with such flexible monsters. Instead, it was a greater threat to his own people.

But Annabelle and Mephis surprised Herman the most.

Annabelle kept throwing javelins, and the forced paralysis for half a second caused the king ant to move as if it had a cerebral infarction.

The ice-coldness of Mephis will quickly superimpose over time. If the battle lasts for more than a quarter of an hour, the king ant will basically be unable to move.

"Is she the most troublesome taboo in the Silver Oath?"

After cleaning up a pile of demonized ants again, Herman glanced at her in surprise.

Since he was a member of Rhodes' Black Wargroup, he didn't ask much.

The team continued to move forward. At this distance, the most troublesome thing was not the ant colony, but the king ants.

The king ant's psionic shock has been greatly enhanced as the queen's psionic power has become stronger. Lannister's targeted methods are no longer effective. The powerful psionic shock will crush all obstacles. Great damage to the soul.

Whenever it appears, the team has to disperse quickly.

Heman must pay close attention to the interval between each psychic shock. Everyone should not only move away quickly when it releases the psychic shock, but also quickly return to its position when it ends the shock, and concentrate all firepower to destroy it in the shortest possible time. .

Otherwise, the psionic shock of the king ant would quickly become stronger until Herman couldn't resist it.

As the distance deepened, the battle became more intense.

Rhodes also used all means.

He drank the "Pioneer of Destruction", used the "Flesh Armor", and threw out the last "Kalus Tongwen Heavy Cannon" during an attack.

Rhode's powerful firepower made everyone look sideways, and every time ten dazzling star shuttles shot out, everyone could feel a little joy, which meant that the monster had received another round of serious blows.

The complete team preparation also makes their battles very efficient without too much damage.

When approaching the distance of 8 yards, Rhodes' team has become the best, and the progress of all other teams is not as fast as them.

As the distance deepened, the demonized ants they encountered became stronger and stronger.

And every time a king ant is killed, the spiritual power of the queen becomes clearer.

At this point, Rhodes played a great role. He used the ability of the platform of light to find the traces of most king ants.

They are scattered throughout the central area, and it is impossible to kill them all with a single team.

Heman communicated with the guardian Churchell against the interference of powerful psychic energy, passing on information.

Churchill circulated among the various teams, leading them to find the king ant and kill it.

This tactic was executed perfectly, and the number of king ants plummeted rapidly.

When it fell below a critical point, everyone could clearly perceive the incomparably majestic and gigantic spiritual power of the Queen of Worms.

It was like a majestic mountain, the center of a terrifying storm, located not far from the entrance to the underground world.

Celie's face was pale, and her voice trembled: "I, are we going to fight this thing?"

"Of course not," Tyrion replied at once. "This is the battle that the great Lord Alan faces, and he will kill it, as he has done every time before."

This answer made everyone in the team look better.

They actually knew this, but only when they heard His Excellency Alan's name with their own ears, could they feel at ease.

But Herman's face was gloomy, and he said: "We are already 5 yards away from the Queen of Worms, and it is very difficult to move forward. It is very slow, and the distance from the empty beacon is only 500 yards. , Your Excellency Alan cannot reach across space."

Tyrion said: "We can gather all the powers of the temple level and plunge into the center of the ant colony like a sharp knife. As long as we put a beacon on the queen, our task will be completed."

Herman was silent for a few seconds, and said, "That's the only way."

But in psychic communication, Guardian Churchel rejected this tactic.

"Two commanders."

Churchill said in a low voice.

"Currently there is no strong-level power in the Trident River area. If we gather together, the rear will be severely impacted, and many lighthouses will be destroyed."

Herman frowned: "Then what should I do?"

"I come."

"Can you do it alone?"

"No, but you can add it."

"us?"

Herman frowned even deeper.

Guardians are first-class fighters second only to super fighters, and they are extraordinary people who have half a foot in the field of laws.

The combined strength of their team is not as strong as Churchill's one hand.

If it wasn't for the continuous fighting, plus he was injured in the action after hunting the insects, as long as Rhodes provided the coordinates, Churchill could completely kill the king ants by himself.

After hearing Herman's doubts, Churchill obviously smiled on the side of the spiritual communication.

"Yes, you guys, don't forget who's on your team."

Click, the psychic communication is over.

Although no one looked at Rhodes, Rhodes felt that everyone was looking at him out of the corner of their eyes.

There is no doubt that he is the most special person in this team.

The Guardian Churchell was referring to him.

Rhode's face remained unchanged, but he didn't have any confidence in his heart.

In the battle just now, he already felt the huge gap in strength between him and the first commander Herman.

The gap with Churchill is undoubtedly even greater.

"All right."

Herman interrupted everyone's thoughts.

"Let's advance another thousand yards before His Excellency Churchill arrives."

Everyone replied in unison: "Good!"

Herman and Tyrion glanced at each other, both satisfied with the high morale in the ranks.

But the advancement was not smooth, and the intensity of the subsequent battle far exceeded imagination.

Within the range of 5 yards, the strength of the queen's spiritual power rose to another level, and the density of the ant colony also increased, and there were hardly any gaps.

With the blessing of super-powerful psychic power, the mighty king ant was on the rampage, and Herman couldn't completely stop it.

The demonized ant colony is even more uncontrollable.

In this team, there are only two "front" combatants, Herman and Celie, and only Lannister is the "middle" field controller.

Once they can't stop the ant colony, the fighters in the "rear position" will be impacted, and their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

Fortunately, Rhodes is an all-rounder, capable of long-distance combat and melee combat. With a wave of ten fingers, the Xinghui long sword and large shield are in hand, and the "flesh and flesh armor" covers the whole body, plus a large number of wooden puppets and flesh and blood puppets , barely held on to the situation.

Coupled with Annabelle's single-target forced paralysis, Mephis' group range is icy cold, and they can still move forward slowly.

At this distance, the strength of the queen's psychic power will increase by a level almost every few hundred yards, and the queen ant is becoming more and more difficult to control. It takes multiple people to work together to block it. The team has to be very careful to avoid attracting Too many demonized ants.

But in this way, their speed slowed down further.

Everyone felt a little cold in their hearts. The battle was already so difficult at such a long distance.

What would it look like if it entered the range of 2 yards or 1 yards?
They barely walked a few hundred yards. At this time, the king ants need to continue to besiege for more than half a quarter of an hour before they can kill one.

Celie cut a gap with the knife, panting and said: "This is too hard, I really can't bear it."

Ryan paled: "Can we go on?"

Frank from Mushroom City made a suggestion: "How about we rush in? The speed of the troops is very fast."

Annabelle said angrily: "I'm just fast, not dying very fast. The strength of this spiritual energy field makes me unable to breathe."

Lannister calmly proposed: "Rods can help you breathe..."

"Go away, you prostitute, my wife is pure and clean, why should you take advantage of him?"

"Oh..." Rhode touched his ass and was kicked hard by her.

Everyone laughed, and the dignified atmosphere eased a little.

Herman took the opportunity to say: "Let's wait here for His Excellency the Guardian."

"Yes." Lannister agreed: "Our team lacks a strong core-level leader. After the Lord Guardian comes, our team will undergo a qualitative change."

Celie muttered: "Do you dare to show some face? The core strong position will undergo a qualitative change in any team."

Lannister pretended not to hear, everyone showed a little smile, only Rhodes raised a question.

"Is Your Excellency Churchill really that strong? This king ant is as hard as a steel plate, and the guardian can't kill it easily, right?"

Before Herman could answer, suddenly, another king ant rushed in from the thick black mist.

The powerful spiritual energy of the Queen of Worms blessed its body, covering its body with a layer of gray light.

Boom.

King Ant and Herman collided together, and a powerful psychic shock wave hit his face, making Rhodes feel like he had hit a giant car.

"spread!"

Herman yelled.

The team dispersed quickly, and only Rhodes and Celie stepped forward. Due to the lack of front positions, Rhodes could no longer serve as a fortress in the back position.

The king ant hissed, and a scythe slammed down. Heman was on top of his head, and Rhodes and Celie raised their hands at the same time.

With a loud bang, the powerful psychic energy collided together, and the roaring shock wave cracked the ground, and within a hundred yards, dust and sand flew up.

Rhodes felt as if he was hit head-on by a ten-meter-thick iron rod, and the spiritual energy in his whole body was in turmoil. This was only under the condition of bearing the remaining strength, and the main force was Herman.

At this time, red lightning broke through the air, and the underground soil swept upwards. The paralyzed javelin turned this powerful king ant into a stroke patient again. A faint cold air circulated between its joints, and even the air was trying to bind it.

Rhodes and the others immediately lost their pressure and began to wrestle with it.

It's just that the king ant's psychic defense is really frighteningly hard, and everyone's attacks have no great effect.

Rhodes already favored Frank's opinion from Mushroom City, and thought to himself, "This is only 4 yards away. Judging from this situation, it is impossible to get close to its 500-yard range. We can only rush over."

But Annabelle's absolute psychic power was too weak. In such a dangerous environment, if she was not careful, she would die on the spot.

While hesitating, Herman and Tyrion suddenly yelled, "The Guardian has come!"

There was joy in the voice.

At the same time, everyone felt the flame mark on their collars heat up, and a powerful existence was rapidly approaching them.

Lannister and Celie shouted simultaneously, "Master!"

Ryan and Frank shouted: "Your Excellency Churchill!"

Annabelle and Memphis didn't speak, but they also looked back at the same time.

There was only a loud bang, like thunder passing by, like a storm falling, strong winds and huge earthquakes hit the face at the same time, the ground beat like the drumhead of a blasting hammer, almost making people fall.

Everyone turned their heads in astonishment, only to see a burly giant man with a huge ax on his back and a huge hammer in his hand, he had already hammered the king ant into a pulp.

The powerful psychic energy visible to the naked eye filled his muscles, making him look like a glowing human figure, and the venomous psychic energy of the Queen of Worms was blocked by him.

A strong, gentle, orderly, and powerful soul similar to them has gained the right to rule this space.

"The hope of the future."

Churchill raised the sledgehammer and put it on his back casually. The king ants below were left with nothing but a pile of ashes.

"Let's solve the source of this disaster."
