Chapter 1385 See the King Again!
A dazzling light burst out in the narrow mine tunnel!
With Octopus Matilda herself as the center, a spherical barrier spread out in all directions.
The barrier containing the power of rules continued to expand, violently pushing away one of the gold-eating rats that had not yet drilled out of the crack, and forcing it against the rock wall.
Xu Xiao, who was regarded as a challenge target by Matilda, was enveloped by the barrier.
It was simply because the effect of the equipment had disappeared, and the other gold-eating rat had not yet let go.
The woman's shoulder guard was bitten to pieces by the huge force on the spot, and along with the large piece of flesh and blood underneath, it was pushed out of the barrier.
Although he was seriously injured, he finally escaped.
"Thank you... or do you have a solution..."
While Xu Xiao sincerely thanked Matilda, he did not check the injury on his shoulder immediately, but turned to look at the Palu rabbit man outside the barrier.
"The power of mercy can indeed bring the dead back to life, but there are strict time limits."
"If the time limit is exceeded, no matter how much I mobilize my authority and power, it will be useless."
"I'm thinking of a solution..." Matilda curled her lips, shifting her gaze away from Xu Xiao's injured shoulder to look at the black mucus that had spread on the ground outside the barrier.
"As I said before, these two gold-eating rats possess a very strong power of rules."
"If you act blindly without understanding the situation, you can easily get yourself into trouble."
"Even if you are God's Chosen One, you should still pay attention to these things!"
"Otherwise, instead of being able to rescue him, you might even kill yourself!"
"Yes..." Xu Xiao endured the pain and accepted it humbly, without any arrogance or disdain in his eyes.
"Don't be unconvinced. After all, I've lived for over three hundred years. I have more combat experience than you." Matilda didn't pay attention to these details and cautiously tried to make amends for herself:
"To use the words from your Earth, I have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice."
"Well, I'm not dissatisfied." Xu Xiao nodded in response.
Matilda is right.
At the beginning, she really only wanted to save people.
Relying on the fact that he was already God's chosen one and possessed strength far beyond that of ordinary players, he completely ignored defense.
"I will remove the barrier after the rift disappears and the monsters come out completely."
"Just remember to surrender when the time comes."
"Now wait a little longer, I feel the situation may still change."
Matilda looked at the light shield that was still slowly expanding outwards, frowned and muttered to herself.
Under her gaze, the gold-eating rat, which had lost its target, roared angrily and charged continuously.
The power of rules contained in it conflicts with the challenger's barrier, just like boiling magma touching cold sea water, steaming up bursts of white mist.
"The monster possesses the power of rules to protect itself. It is either a lord-level creature that has awakened the battlefield, or an even more special king-level creature."
"For a relatively common monster like the Gold-Eating Rat to appear, I've only seen similar situations in the Demon Realm over the past three hundred years..."
"Hey silly girl, what do you think?"
Matilda turned around and saw Xu Xiao staring at another part of the barrier with a pale face.
Immediately following the line of sight,
I saw that the black sticky substance that had previously flowed out of the cracks had gathered into a large pool at some point, and as if it had life, it slowly crawled towards the barrier.
But that's not the point.
The point is that the challenger's barrier that can block all external objects can't stop these black substances!
"What is this?!"
Xu Xiao watched as the sticky black substance passed through the barrier and slowly moved towards him. He finally couldn't help but ask:
"It looks like blasphemous water..." Matilda narrowed her eyes and casually pulled out a spear from the data panel.
"Stay away, I'll give it a try."
After saying that, he threw the spear towards the sticky substance.
The Challenger's Ward will provide players with basic weapons for fighting.
It has no special effects, so it doesn't matter if it's damaged.
When the spear pierced into the sticky black substance, it did not cause any reaction at first.
But soon, the black substance seemed to have discovered something good, temporarily stopped moving forward, and began to spread and wrap the entire spear.
Under the two astonished gazes, the spear stuck in the ground quickly melted away and disappeared without a trace.
"Gone?"
Xu Xiao's eyes widened as she murmured:
"I remember that the Desecrated Water only destroys talents, clears four-dimensional attributes, and completely turns the player into an ordinary person, right?"
"How can it dissolve gold and iron and devour weapons?"
"You ask me, but who should I ask? It's been over three hundred years, and this is the first time I've encountered this situation..." Matilda's eyes were even wider than Xu Xiao's, and her face, with its three-dimensional features, was filled with astonishment and fear.
"It seems that the extra salt I eat is just because I have a strong taste, and it has no real effect at all."
"Why does it feel like the real world is even more dangerous than the divine realm? Could it be that I failed the test and am still stuck in the reincarnation illusion created by the End Stage..."
While he was muttering to himself, new changes took place in the outside world.
The two cracks that appeared at the beginning gradually showed signs of closing, silently urging the two gold-eating rats to escape as soon as possible.
Matilda and Xu Xiao originally thought that the two gold-eating rats would drill through the narrow gap between the barrier and the rock wall to the end of the mine tunnel and be temporarily isolated inside.
But unexpectedly, the two gold-eating rats actually shrank back into the crack!
Can I go back?!
Matilda was completely stunned.
More than three hundred years.
She lived for more than three hundred years!
The eruption of fissures of all sizes has been witnessed countless times!
I have never seen a monster that can return to the rift!
Hasn't this thing always been a one-way channel?
Could it be that the overall recovery process has accelerated and the 'game version' has been updated again?
"Look over there!"
While Matilda was stunned, Xu Xiao's voice came again.
Looking in the direction the woman pointed, I saw two ferocious gold-eating rat heads squeezing out from the largest crack where the black sticky substance had previously flowed out.
This time they no longer blocked the exit, unable to advance or retreat.
Instead, he got out of it decisively.
Also brought out were their extremely strange lower bodies!
That's not a normal gold-eating rat at all.
To be precise, it was more like a large mass of black sticky substance with the bodies of two gold-eating rats emerging from it!
Moreover, the sticky substance that had previously swallowed the spear within the challenger's barrier began to wriggle again!
After the small groups of energy were separated and gathered in the 'main body' outside the barrier, even stranger changes occurred on the already strange gold-eating rat!
The dirty bristles gradually turned grayish-white, and the sharp fangs began to reflect a metallic luster.
You don't have to guess to know that it was the characteristic of the spear that just disappeared!
Matilda's expression began to turn ugly.
The sexy plump lips moved slightly, and three words came out with difficulty:
"King-level..."
