Valon: Even a supporting character can change his fate.
Chapter 654: Crypt Lord Nibru
Seeing the distance between the two sides getting closer, Wolfe and the Lich looked at each other and made a decision almost at the same time, which was to leave all the undead around them, including the skeleton soldiers, blood abominations and corpse ghosts.
Let them cover the retreat and slow down the Spider Mistress's advance as much as possible.
The two of them could still distinguish between what was more important and what was less important. Instead of spending all their energy and using up all their magic power to save these undead spirits, it would be better to let them play their value when necessary.
As for when, it is naturally now.
If she is lucky, the Spider Mistress will be able to calm down after killing all the undead and go back to sleep. That would be real luck.
After all, compared to the Lich and Wolf, these undead are consumables and cannon fodder. As long as there are enough materials, a new batch can be created at any time.
But it would be a real pity and a real waste for undead with a certain degree of intelligence like the lich, and Wolf, who has become a necromancer, to die here.
Naturally, these undead spirits obeyed the orders of the two men 120%, but unfortunately their strength was too weak, and they didn't even have the ability to resist the Spider Mistress.
The Spider Mistress just gave a casual sweep and almost all of the weakest skeleton soldiers were wiped out. Even though they were wearing the best armor looted from human soldiers, it was still useless and they couldn't withstand the attack anyway.
The only thing that could play a role was the Blood Abomination, but it was only a little bit of a role. The heavy iron ball hit the Spider Matriarch's leg and successfully attracted the other party's attention.
And then, nothing happened. With the same casual sweep of the Spider Mistress, the Blood Abomination's body was cut directly in half from the middle.
Oh yes, the explosion of the Blood Abomination at the end also attracted the Spider Mistress's attention for a moment.
For a moment, the spider mistress thought that it was this guy who disturbed her rest, but when she used the fur on her body to sense, she found that there was something running in front of her, so she decisively chased after it.
Faced with the Spider Mistress chasing them again, the Lich and Wolf had no choice but to keep running with all their might.
Fortunately, when the Spider Mistress was getting closer and closer, when both of them were ready for a do-or-die battle, a voice came into their ears.
The two people who heard the sound did not hesitate at all, they braked suddenly and rushed into the cave next to them.
There were indeed many caves on the rock walls along the way, which was why the two did not hide in them.
The main thing is that I don’t know whether there is a living way or a dead end. If it is a living way, it would be good. Even if I don’t know where it leads to, at least I can temporarily avoid the pursuit of the Spider Mistress.
But if it’s a dead end, it would be a big problem.
You definitely can’t get in with the spider queen’s huge body, but don’t forget that as a spider she can spin silk, so as long as she sticks to you, she can drag you out.
You can't expect a lich and a necromancer together to wrestle against the Spider Queen.
But now it’s different. When the two heard the voice at the same time, their first reaction was that someone was guiding them, and it was very likely that Bai stayed behind to help them.
So the two of them did not hesitate at all, and followed the sound prompts and decisively drilled into the cave next to them.
Just as the two thought, the voice did not deceive them. This cave entrance was a way out. After entering, the two ran all the way and soon came to an open area.
After walking out of the cave, the two saw a beetle as big as a pickup truck standing in front of them, and next to the beetle were six small beetles, about the size of an adult Tibetan mastiff.
Before the two could speak, the big beetle actually spoke in human language and said first, "I know you have a lot of doubts in your hearts, but we are not safe now, so I will make it short."
This big beetle called himself the Crypt Lord Nibru. The clan of crypt demons he led was once the overlord here. They fought many battles with the cold-land spiders for living space and limited resources.
But with the birth of a powerful spider mistress among the cold spiders, the Crypt Lord was no match for her. Most of the tribe he led were killed, so the Lord had no choice but to hide.
The reason why it helped the Lich and Wolf was because Bai met it when passing by here, and chose to help it after listening to Nibru's words.
He promised that after he finished the task at hand, he would help it kill the spider mistress and let its tribe become the dominant tribe in this area again.
After seeing Nibru take out Bai's token, the two of them believed what the other said.
Nibru has lived here for a long time and is very familiar with the environment here. Moreover, the little beetles and crypt demons under his command are all good diggers. Even if there is no road ahead, they can dig a way out for you by hard digging.
Under the leadership of Nibru, the two took fewer detours and quickly approached the direction where Bai was.
However, the further you go, the higher the temperature around you becomes, for which Nibru gave an explanation.
The direction they are heading towards is an underground volcano. The closer they get to it, the higher the temperature will be, and the safer they will be.
Those cold-region spiders are accustomed to cold environments and are very sensitive to temperature changes. Rising temperatures will have a great impact on them, so they will not come near here.
After the little beetles dug open the rock wall in front of them, they finally walked out and came to a protruding cliff, where Bai was waiting for them.
When they came out and saw Bai who had been waiting there for a long time, the three of them didn't say much, just nodded, and everything was said without words.
At this time, there were not many undead around Bai. No corpse ghosts or blood abominations were left. There were only five skeleton soldiers following him. Two of them were missing an arm, and one was missing a leg.
Needless to say, the undead led by Bai must have also been attacked by the cold spiders. That's why there are only these few left.
However, Bai was not angry at all. After all, their goal had been initially achieved.
As Bai stretched out his hand and motioned for the two to look down, Lich and Wolf came to the edge and looked down, and saw a huge underground city.
Although this is only a city site and many houses have been damaged and collapsed, its former glory can still be seen from these ruins.
"What's going on? Why are there still flames in the city? Are there still people living here?"
The sharp-eyed Wolfe saw the flames and rising white smoke in the city at a glance. Looking at the area again, there were obvious signs of renovation.
"It's the Duergar."
Nibru walked forward, looked at the area and said, "About a dozen years ago, a group of gray dwarves came here and took root here."
