Chapter 1566 Guardian of the Ruins?
"Guardian of the ruins?"
Lu Li glanced at Gralgorn who was trembling and asked curiously:
"Have you ever encountered something similar before?"
"I've only heard of it, sir," Babayak replied truthfully.
"With our Goblin's strength, if we were to encounter the Ruins Guardian alone, there would be almost no chance of survival."
"Hearing what you said, I guess you don't know what its specific strength level is?" Lu Li raised his eyebrows, without much worry on his face.
"Yes, sir." Babayak nodded and then said seriously:
"However, there have been cases in the past where more than ten mid-level monsters joined forces to repel the guardians of the ruins. If nothing unexpected happens, with the strength of you and Lady Evelina, it should be enough to deal with it."
"Can we repel more than ten mid-level monsters? They don't sound very strong..." Lu Li muttered to himself as he started walking forward.
He looks fearless, confident and arrogant.
Seeing this, Evelina couldn't help but look worried again in her eyes.
Although Lu Li had previously shown her the 'powerful insurance', letting her know clearly that she would not die or be trapped due to other circumstances before stepping onto the Demon Battle Arena.
But as she watched the other person quickly approaching the figure in the distance, her heart inevitably tightened.
There is always a chance of something happening.
What if the guardian of the ruins is an elite monster, or simply a very special existence with extremely strong combat power?
Lu Li is currently residing in Li Yun's demonic body and is not in his prime. What if he is unable to cope and is controlled by the other party?
In that case, wouldn't she have to form a team with five Goblins and fight against the ruins guard?
No!
She just wants to be a salted fish and doesn't want to bear such great pressure!
"Well..." Evelina quickly caught up with Lu Li and said in a low voice:
"Even though you're definitely not going to die right now, there's no need to desperately try to kill yourself like this, right?"
"Can you be a little more steady? Otherwise, I'll be nervous watching you..."
"I know. I just went over to take a look." Lu Li replied without turning his head.
"That figure in the center hasn't moved for so long. Maybe it's not alive at all?"
"Then don't try it yourself. There are five Gobelins at the back that can be used..." Evelina lowered her voice by three points and glanced back.
Because they did not receive any orders from the two great demons, the five green-skinned dwarves remained standing there, looking somewhat at a loss.
"They are useless." Lu Li responded calmly, slowing down his pace slightly.
He glanced back at the five Goblins.
Seeing that they didn't move, he waved to each other.
While motioning for him to come closer, he continued to speak to Evelina:
"Even if the Goblins find out something, it won't help our exploration process at all."
"Unless, that so-called guardian of the ruins puts down his blade and stops killing after killing one or two."
“This…” Evelina was speechless.
Because she felt that what Lu Li said made a lot of sense.
I clearly thought the other person was acting recklessly just a second ago and should have been more cautious.
But after hearing the explanation, he immediately changed his mind.
It feels like a lost brain has returned to the cranial cavity, and everything suddenly becomes clear.
never mind,
With her intelligence, she should just follow Lu Li and follow his instructions.
Thinking about the future, worrying about the situation, etc.
For a salted fish, the requirements are really a bit high.
Although the underground space is vast, it doesn't take long to reach the center if you focus on moving forward.
After getting close enough, Lu Li was able to see the true face of the black shadow.
That was not the guardian that Gralgorn mentioned, but a statue of armor.
A statue of a man in armor carved from stone.
Apart from a few lines of text engraved on its surface, there is nothing special about it that deserves attention.
Those lines of text were not obscure magic words, but were composed of some characters that Lu Li had never seen before.
Through the built-in translation function of the data panel, you can understand the meaning smoothly and unimpeded.
"Is it actually a rule?"
Lu Li's brow furrowed slightly in confusion, and he began to read the contents carefully.
[Uninvited intruders, if you want to leave alive, please be sure to abide by the following rules. ]
[1. The passage to the mausoleum is one-way; there is no turning back.]
[2. To leave alive, you must complete the game of 'loyalty and betrayal' inside the mausoleum.]
[3. Choosing to participate in the game is very simple. Just say "I want to participate in the game" to your mind, then touch any part of your body with the armored statue to be directly transported to the game area inside the mausoleum.]
[4. When all the flames are extinguished, judgment will come. Please seize the time to discuss countermeasures and do not waste your life in hesitation.]
There are only four rules in total, and the amount of information they reveal is not very large.
Tell everyone clearly what they should do next if they want to survive.
And also gave a reminder of the limited time.
Lu Li moved his gaze away from the surface of the statue and looked around.
I found that most of the torches that had lit up first had gone out.
The rest of the world was fading into darkness bit by bit, every second.
Lu Li made a quick estimate and found that there were about six hundred torches from the wall to the ceiling.
If the time it takes for the torch to go out doesn't accelerate immediately, they'll have about ten minutes to discuss countermeasures.
"Just say 'I want to play the game' to yourself and touch the statue with any part of your body to be transported directly to the game venue."
"'Loyalty and betrayal'?"
"They reserved more than ten minutes for us to discuss countermeasures. That's really thoughtful..."
Lu Li muttered to himself silently and looked at the others.
There was no change in Evelina's expression, only surprise and confusion at seeing the rules in her eyes.
The expressions on the faces of the other Goblins were similar.
While retaining the fear of the unknown, his mind is also quite active and I don't know what he is thinking.
After taking in everything, Lu Li cleared his throat and said calmly:
"Everyone, since the rules suggest that we hurry up and discuss countermeasures, let's get started."
"What do you think of this game of 'loyalty and betrayal'?"
"Everyone should speak freely without worrying too much."
Hearing this, Evelina nodded slightly, not finding it strange, and began to organize her words carefully.
But the Gobelins seemed a little surprised.
Especially the three members of the big tribe who were not familiar with Lu Li at all, they were dumbfounded and stunned!
