i have a museum of curiosities

"tread--"

As soon as Zhang Ye stepped onto the platform on the second floor, there was a roar from the darkness ahead, and then two tall figures appeared one on the left and one on the right.
-
oh?There was an ambush just on the second floor?Sure enough, it has the evil taste of Miyazaki's old thief!interesting……

Zhang Ye muttered in his heart, while calmly watching the comer carefully.

—Soldier Corpse

—The imperial soldiers stationed here at the order of the king wandered in the underground prison of Atreia after losing their souls, and they were also thirsting for souls.

As the two figures got closer, Zhang Ye realized that they were two living corpses wearing metal armor.Although the armor on their bodies has become tattered, and even rust spots have appeared in some places, the long swords in their hands are shining with a faint cold light, which is not ordinary at first glance.
-
As expected of an imperial soldier, the weapon he holds looks even more powerful than my broadsword...

Zhang Ye suddenly felt that the magic weapon of Zhoumu customs clearance would not be popular in an instant, okay?
While pursing his mouth, Zhang Ye rolled over to avoid the attack of the first living corpse of the soldier, got up and stabbed the next living corpse of the soldier with his sword.

"when--"

Zhang also looked at the living corpse of the soldier in front of him with some surprise. He didn't expect that the armor on the opponent's body was so strong that the broad sword in his hand couldn't penetrate it at all!
Flower wipe!Can you still shoot a knife? !This is just a joke, okay...

Zhang Ye rolled over to avoid the attack of the soldier's corpse in front of him, and then took two steps back, looking vigilantly at another soldier's corpse behind him who was about to attack.

Following Zhang Ye's example, the other party also stabbed at him with a sword, but the corner of Zhang Ye's mouth curled up in an arc.

"when--"

Zhang Ye raised his sword to parry the attack of the soldier's living corpse, and staggered the opponent's body.

Straight out!

good chance!
Zhang also remembered what the old blacksmith said, staring at the unprotected part of the opponent's neck, he stabbed with a sword.

"puff--"

The broad sword pierced in response.The other party seemed to want to howl, but was unable to make a sound because his throat was pierced.

Seeing that the long sword of another soldier's corpse was about to be slashed, it was too late for Zhang Ye to draw the sword at this time, so he had to temporarily abandon the sword and rolled to avoid it.

Tsk——If only this were a Souls 3 game... It would be invincible during the execution, and you don't have to worry about the attacks of other enemies... After secretly complaining a few words in his heart, Zhang also looked at the previous attack on himself vigilantly. corpses of soldiers.

Seeing that the opponent seemed to be preparing to release his skills, his body slowly bent.

Seeing this, Zhang Ye condensed a dazzling thunder light from his right hand without saying a word, and threw it at the opponent violently!

"Fuck-"

A burnt smell permeated the scene, and the scene was suddenly difficult to describe.Zhang couldn't help swallowing silently, and turned his face away.

The body of the soldier's living corpse collapsed on the ground weakly, and then a familiar white light cluster appeared on the ground.

After a while, Zhang Ye's mood calmed down a little bit, and then he turned his head against the discomfort, looked at the dead and unrecognizable corpse of the soldier, and said in his heart: Sorry, it's not that I targeted you, it's mainly because of your skills. It's too long, and there's no invincibility and overlord...

Watching the body of the soldier's living corpse slowly turn into the nourishment of the white mist, Zhang also picked up the long sword and soul fragments dropped by the other party as a matter of course.
-
Yo, there are 50 soul shards!As expected of an imperial soldier... um... this sword seems familiar...

Zhang Ye muttered a few words in his heart, staring carefully at the beautifully shaped one-handed long sword.

— Atrean Soldier Longsword

—The long sword equipped by Atrean soldiers is made of fine steel, a superior weapon with both beauty and practicality.Suitable for chopping and thrusting, with good weight and balance.

—In the ancient legend of Atreia, there used to be a group of elite knights galloping with flying dragons. They held long swords blessed by the Holy See of the Sun God, and they were unstoppable.It is said that the long swords equipped by Atreian soldiers were modeled after this.
-
It's still a long sword with a story... Tsk tsk, if it has something to do with gods, wouldn't it be a "miracle" weapon?

Zhang also waved the long sword in his hand a few times curiously, and decisively changed the broad sword given to him by the blacksmith to his left hand.
-
Dual wielding is the essence!
Zhang Ye chuckled, and only then had time to slowly observe the environment in front of him.

This is a relatively dark corridor, only the four torches on both sides bring some light.The end of the corridor was covered in a fog, making it hard to see clearly.Zhang Ye tightened his newly obtained long sword of Atreia soldiers, and thought: I have to finish the battle this time before I have time to observe the environment carefully, but according to the experience of playing Soul 3, some enemies should be able to use the environment to easily kill them. Killing is the right thing... so before you face the enemy next time, pay attention to observe the environment!

With this in mind, Zhang also stopped hesitating and walked towards the mist at the end of the corridor.But after walking less than [-] steps, Zhang was surprised to find that there was a fork to the right about five meters ahead. He hadn't seen it because of the poor light in the corridor.

This made Zhang Ye, who had experienced the "malicious old thief" many times, feel alert.

Putting the broad sword in his left hand across his body, Zhang also put the long sword in his right hand on the right side of the broad sword. The two swords are placed in a cross shape, which can attack, block, stab and cut.

"Tread, step..."

In the quiet corridor, the sound of Zhang Ye's footsteps was particularly obvious.Just when he was about to reach the fork in the road, he suddenly felt his feet lighten, and he couldn't help but say something bad in his heart.

Stepped on the organ again!

Zhang Ye immediately leaned his back against the wall, with his two swords close to his body.

"Whoa, whoa—"

Two familiar sounds of piercing through the air came, and two rockets burning with faint blue flames suddenly flew out from the direction Zhang Ye came from, almost grazing the blade of the broadsword, and then disappeared behind the mist.
-
Damn, it's too insidious!
Zhang also cursed secretly in his heart, and then gently poked forward with his foot. When he touched the bump, he quickly retracted his front foot, carefully avoided the mechanism on the ground, and turned to the fork on the right.

Unexpectedly, this is just a shallow and narrow corridor, and the end seems to be blocked due to a collapse, and a mummy who has been dead for an unknown period of time is sitting in front of the stone platform.

What attracted Zhang Ye was the dazzling white light cluster on the mummy's body and the relatively intact silver helmet in the mummy's hand.

Zhang Ye couldn't move his eyes away for a moment, and he cursed inwardly, "The undead should be damned phototaxis", before taking a step.But he didn't dare to be careless who stepped on the mechanism by mistake just now, and Zhang Ye still leaned against the wall even though he was less than two meters away from the mummy.

Fortunately, I just scare myself.

After successfully removing the helmet held by the mummy with one hand, Zhang couldn't help but look closely.

—Iron helmet

——The helmet made of thin iron sheet can effectively prevent the slashing of sword weapons.

Excitedly, Zhang Ye was about to put on the iron helmet, but suddenly he seemed to have thought of something, so he hurriedly lifted the helmet to check, and after making sure that there was no unclean and disgusting substance inside, he gently put it on his head.

—Hmm...it seems a bit big...and the field of view is a bit limited...but it can provide some protection, isn't it...

After muttering a few words in his heart, Zhang Ye stretched out his hand to the white light cluster on the mummy's body.

— get 100 soul shards
— 270 soul shards remaining —
Tsk tsk, I picked up 100 shards casually, and only got 50 after killing two living corpses of soldiers... It's really depressing...

After chanting a few words in his heart, Zhang Ye left here and walked towards the fog at the end of the corridor.

Thinking that the mist would take the initiative to bypass him, Zhang Ye gently stretched out his right hand.Sure enough, the fog receded one after another, and Zhang Ye finally saw the scene in front of him clearly.

This is a rather spacious underground hall. There seem to be high stepped seats in front and on both sides, but the top is empty.
-
This shape... how does it look like a square ancient Roman Colosseum... Could this be an arena?
Zhang also thought this way, but instead of rushing forward, he looked around this strange hall.But just as he was observing with a frown, the sound of the iron door closing suddenly came from behind him.

Zhang also hurriedly turned around.

Sure enough, the passage had been blocked by an iron gate.
-
Why didn't I find out that there is another mechanism here...

Zhang also sighed with some regret, and secretly warned himself that he must first observe the environment before acting, but now he has to accept the reality.

Turning around again, Zhang also found that something had changed in the arena in front of him—the fog on the ground was getting thicker and thicker, and three shadows appeared in the fog!
-
Rub...don't let me pick three?
Zhang Ye was taken aback, and cautiously placed the broad sword in front of him.

That's right, the broad sword known as the "Zhoumu Artifact" in Black Soul 3 has been played by Zhang Ye as a blocking dagger...

"Ugh-"

A low horn sounded, and a Japanese warrior in red armor with a long knife in his hand slowly walked out of the mist.
-
Nani?Japanese samurai?This... is this really teasing me... Is that big brother a relative of the expert teacher?
Zhang couldn't help curling his lips suddenly, he didn't expect to see Japanese warriors in this underground arena shaped like a European Colosseum.Does this world have the same mixed cultural background as the soul 3 game?Or is it that the culture of this world has penetrated into the heavens and worlds?
But right now it seemed that Zhang Ye couldn't afford to think about it, because the other party had obviously discovered him!
"Crack-"

The red-armored warrior suddenly raised the long knife in his hand in front of him, and the armor on his body made a dull sound.

Dongying Samurai's Sword is a well-known killing weapon, in the hands of a master, it only takes one hit to kill a person!With my superficial fighting skills, can I really beat the opponent?Zhang Yegulu swallowed, the right hand holding the soldier's long sword had become a little pale from the force, and the broad sword in his left hand trembled slightly.
-
It doesn't matter, the soldiers will block the water and cover them with earth, as long as they don't get hit by him, everything will be fine!
After comforting himself a little, Zhang Ye held the broad sword tightly, put the soldier's long sword next to the broad sword again with his right hand, posed in a cross shape, and slowly leaned towards the opponent cautiously.

The warrior in red armor also walked towards Zhang Ye slowly.

"Crack-knock-"

As the red-armored warrior approached step by step, the clashing sound of the armor on his body hit Zhang Ye's heartstrings, causing a few drops of sweat to slowly roll off his cheeks.

When he was about three meters away from Zhang Ye, the red armored warrior suddenly took a step forward.

coming!

Zhang Ye let out a low cry, and pushed the broadsword in his left hand forward, trying to block the opponent's slash.

However, he miscalculated the timing, the red-armored warrior only took a step forward, but the samurai sword in his hand did not move.

When Zhang Ye's old power was gone and new power was not born, the long sword in the red armored warrior's hand suddenly slashed down diagonally.

"when--"

Zhang Ye only felt that a strong force was transmitted to his left arm through the broad sword, and then his entire left body was bent down by this force.But he didn't dare to withdraw the force with his left hand. Once he withdrew the force, with the sharpness of Dongying Samurai's knife, he might be split in two on the spot!
The red-armored warrior moved extremely quickly. After the oblique slash was over, he swung the warrior's long knife horizontally and swept it towards Zhang Ye's neck.

Zhang also didn't have time to retreat, especially since his left body was still in a half-bent posture, and he couldn't retreat at all!Gritting his teeth fiercely, Zhang Ye's right leg suddenly exerted strength, and he rushed out with his whole body, directly crashing into the arms of the red armored warrior.

"bump--"

After all, Zhang Ye hit with all his strength, and this time the impact was far more intense than before.The body of the red-armored warrior was bumped into a stagger. Naturally, the long knife that was originally aimed at Zhang Ye was exhausted, and Zhang Ye's body had already crashed into the opponent's arms, so the red-armored warrior's right arm was only lightly. It swept over Zhang Ye's helmet.

Seeing that the opponent was knocked out by him for a short period of time, Zhang Ye took advantage of the situation and raised the soldier's long sword in his right hand.

"Snapped--"

The long sword hit the arm armor of the red armored warrior, but couldn't penetrate an inch at all.
-
Cottage! "

Zhang Ye cursed angrily in his heart, and hurriedly rolled back, opening the distance from the opponent.

The red-armored warrior seemed to have come to his senses. He glanced at the shallow scar on his right arm armor, let out a roar, and slashed at him with a knife in both hands.

The knife was so fast and ruthless that Zhang Ye didn't even have time to raise the broadsword, so he had to retreat as hard as he could.

The samurai sword cut open Zhang Ye's shirt at once, and there was even a bloodstain on his chest.

... Spiritual bodies also bleed?

Zhang Ye was startled, and hurriedly pressed the broad sword in the direction of the warrior's long sword, trying to forcibly change the attack rhythm of the red-armored warrior.Zhang Ye's attack seemed to be somewhat unexpected by the red-armored warrior, and the warrior's long sword in his hand was almost knocked down!

Before the red-armored warrior could react, Zhang Ye stomped his right foot on the ground again, his body suddenly jumped forward, and slammed into the opponent's body again!

"bump--"

Although the opponent got hit twice with the same trick, the red-armored warrior was obviously prepared this time. When Zhang Ye hit him, he had already separated his feet back and forth, and forcibly resisted the impact!Even the body is only slightly tilted back.Immediately afterwards, he held the knife behind his back and slashed upwards at Zhang!

Zhang Ye simply used the soldier's long sword to hold down the warrior's long sword, and the broad sword in his left hand had no time to adjust his lying position, so he smashed across the opponent's helmet sideways!
"Snapped--"

The red-armored warrior was obviously frightened by this blow, and hurriedly shrank his head back.

To be honest, this blow was actually not very powerful, because Zhang Ye actually slapped the opponent's samurai helmet with the spine of his sword!This attack was purely because Zhang Ye wanted to take the opportunity to attack more.

The damage is not high, but it is extremely insulting!
