I like crossing the most

Chapter 808 Treasure 6
"Yes……"

After hearing what Xiaolin said, everyone else fell into deep thought, recalling everything they had seen in the tower.

Megumin nodded and said, “Although the Axis Cultists are just humans, it’s strange that they are also in the maze. Besides, didn’t the guild say that there were only some powerful adventurers before we came? Those Axis Cultists are mostly ordinary people. I don’t think they have the ability to venture into the maze tower.”

She has the most say in these matters. After all, people like Krillin have fought their way up here and have a deep understanding of the strength of monsters. It would be fine if they were powerful priests like Zesta and Cecily, but ordinary Axis believers really can't move around here easily.

“In other words, there are no real monsters, but fake opponents created by magic.” Seeing Huihui being so smart, Xiaolin nodded with satisfaction and explained: “I guess the ability of this maze tower is to make us recall terrible things, read psychological trauma and take a series of actions... The guild also explained it to us. Even if we ask about the tower, we get completely different answers.”

"I see."

After hearing Xiaolin’s explanation, Darkness suddenly realized, “So, different people are afraid of different things, so different monsters appear... Is that what you mean?”

“Then this makes sense for the enemies we’ve encountered so far.” Megumin nodded seriously and said, “I’m not good at dealing with giant toads and Axis cultists, so they showed up and harassed us crazily, preventing us from reaching the top floor of this tower… I didn’t expect it to be like this.”

The expressions of the others were also slightly gloomy, because in fact, it was not just Megumin. Krillin, Wiz, and Yunyun all hated the Axis Cultists, and the giant toads were something Aqua hated. As for Darkness...it seemed like she liked these things?

"I say, why do you hate my believers so much? They are all good people!" Aqua yelled in dissatisfaction: "Listen carefully, these lovely believers of mine will answer you kindly if you talk to them nicely. They are completely different from those annoying undead, so don't hate them casually!"

I don't understand why this guy is so excited, but thanks to the stupid goddess, Xiaolin figured out one thing.

"The Vanir dolls and the large number of undead outside the tower are the manifestation of your previous psychological trauma, Aqua. Because you are too afraid of those things, they appear in large numbers."

"Listen to what they say!"

Xiaolin ignored the angry stupid goddess. After hearing these explanations, Wiz's face suddenly changed. He pointed at the headless knight Beldia and the poisonous slime Hans in front of him and exclaimed in a low voice: "In other words, these two are also..."

"What are you talking about?" The headless knight Beldia raised his sword in one hand and his head in the other. He rode on his headless mount and shouted, "It's your bad luck to meet you here. This is your doom. Be prepared!"

He didn't seem to realize that he was actually a phantom created by someone's inner fear. No, it should be said that the person who feared him understood the Headless Knight Beldia in this way, so he didn't realize it.

"I have to repay the debt of favor I owed you back then."

The poisonous slime Hans looked the same, his body was constantly surging, and he expanded rapidly, revealing his powerful true form, and poison gas began to spread on this floor.

Darkness raised the knight's sword in his hand and stood in front of them while saying seriously, "Unfortunately, even if they are fake, they seem to be very strong. And considering the strength of those phantoms, it is better to be prepared that they have the same strength as the real ones!"

There was no doubt that they had fallen into a trap.

One Demon King Army cadre would be fine, but two Demon King Army cadres were obviously too strong, not to mention that they were enhanced by the Labyrinth Tower. Even Xiao Lin felt that they were a bit strong, and the situation suddenly became difficult. If they were not completely eliminated here, perhaps this Labyrinth Tower would transform into something even more terrifying, such as something that Xiao Lin was afraid of, and then the whole army would be wiped out.

"Mr. Kobayashi, Lady Aqua! Mr. Beldia the Dullahan and the others are coming!"

"Ahhh, damn it, I have no choice but to get on with it!"

Xiao Lin covered his forehead in pain. He knew that he couldn't let his mind wander now. After all, Murphy's Law once said that the more you worry about something, the more likely it will appear. So he couldn't let his mind wander. He could only focus on the battle in front of him for the time being. Because he had dealt with two Demon King Army cadres before, he knew their respective weaknesses. So he gave orders without hesitation:

“Headless Knight Beldia can be purified with water, and Toxic Slime Hans can freeze him with ice magic. Aqua and Wiz, I’m counting on you two! Fight with all your might!”

Xiaolin shouted.

Fortunately, both Wiz and Aqua have good compatibility - water and ice are from the same source. After Aqua weakens the Dullahan Beldia, Wiz will use ice magic to kill them both. What Krillin, Darkness, Megumin, and Yunyun need to do is to delay them as much as possible before they can successfully use magic to weaken the two Demon King's army cadres.

"Okay!" Aqua said excitedly, "It looks like it's my turn to show off my power as the goddess of water!"

"Okay, Mr. Kobayashi! I understand. I'll give it a try!"

Aqua waved her hand and summoned a powerful stream of water. The water was so fierce that it was frightening. Krillin and Darkness stood in front of it. Because this was just an ordinary maze tower, if it collapsed accidentally, it would be more trouble than gain. In addition, there were many people in this maze tower. They were not the Axis cultists that were transformed by the tower, but adventurers like Wiz who entered before them. So in order to prevent them from getting hurt, Krillin had to do his best to stop the water from rushing down.

“So, so heavy…!”

“Hold on, Darkness!”

Xiaolin and Darkness stood at the entrance of the stairs. Xiaolin used magic to create two huge earth walls. The two of them stood there to block the water from rushing down. Aqua also summoned a lot of water and directed it to wash over the headless knight Beldia's body. After all, only water could weaken this powerful cadre of the Demon King's army.

“Waaaaaa——”

Since the space on the top of the tower is not very large, the Headless Knight Beldia tried his best to dodge, but he was still knocked over by the flood. In addition, the water summoned by the Stupid Goddess was filled with a large amount of divine power, which stimulated him so much that he couldn't help but scream.

But at the same time, the Toxic Slime Hans was also trying his best to swallow the water. Unlike the Dullahan, nothing except ice magic would work on it. Not only that, it could also make it bigger and stronger.

"Ugh... so annoying!" Aqua clicked her tongue in dissatisfaction, and then shouted at the weak lich: "You useless lich over there, it's time to work!"

"Yes, please teach me, Aqua-sama!"

After Wiz finished speaking, she began to exert her strength suddenly. She did not summon an icicle, but took advantage of the situation to lower the temperature of the water flow summoned by Aqua. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a layer of ice. The temperature of the entire upper space dropped sharply, and the earth wall supported by Xiaolin and Darkness also showed some signs of cracking. After all, ice reduces the movement between molecules, so the earth magic known for its stability can't bear it at this moment.

But the result was good. With the combined efforts of Aqua and Wiz, the upper space of the entire maze tower was filled with a large amount of cold air. Both Huihui and Yunyun shivered. The two weak great magicians hugged each other for warmth. They couldn't really help in this battle, but they stayed here just in case.

The goddess and the banshee worked together to achieve great results. The headless knight Beldia was weakened into an ordinary undead. Not only was his strength greatly reduced, but his movements became much slower and stiffer under the influence of ice magic. He was able to overlook the entire situation, but once he was unable to move, he could not see anything.

The Toxic Slime Hans was frozen into a big block of ice, so hard that he could do nothing. Seeing him like this, Xiaolin and others decided to get rid of the Headless Knight first, and then go back to get rid of the Toxic Slime Hans who could not move.

Thanks to the team's tacit cooperation over a year, Krillin and Darkness understood each other's ideas without saying anything, and the team members acted in an orderly manner, constantly besieging the immobile Headless Knight Beldia, and then when he was cut in half by Krillin's sword, he could only let out a scream and disappeared, without even leaving his body behind.

As expected, these guys are constructed with magic power, and there will be absolutely no body remains. Otherwise, Kobayashi could rely on this method to get a large amount of materials and experience points, and even the cadres of the Demon King's army would become tools for upgrading.

After getting rid of the Headless Knight Beldia, everyone turned back to deal with the Toxic Slime Hans. Because he was a meat target that couldn't move at all, everyone rushed forward without any courtesy. But the key is that this guy is really meat. No matter how you beat him, he looks thick and tough, a tough bone to chew. The most speechless thing is that I don't know if the magic power of this tower is too sufficient. When they were halfway through the fight, the Headless Knight Beldia was resurrected!
This is really speechless. We finally killed him, but he was resurrected.

"Damn it... It's so difficult... I actually got stuck in such a tough fight..."

Darkness wiped the corners of her mouth.

She did nothing against the Headless Knight Beldia, and wasn't even beaten, but she did put in a lot of effort against the Toxic Slime Hans.

Aqua waved her weak fist in dissatisfaction and cursed: "After defeating one enemy, another will revive him. It's really endless! I say, even if it's the Headless Knight Beldia and the Toxic Slime Hans, infinite regeneration is too weird, right? Is there something wrong?"

“That’s right.” Huihui panted and said, “In this case, no matter how hard we try, there’s no limit. What should we do? Should we just keep going like this? No, we’ll run out of energy first.”

“Indeed…” Youyou whispered uneasily, “Unlike the phantoms we’ve seen so far, we can’t defeat them one by one. Unlimited resurrection is really a headache. They’re really a tough enemy.”

Aqua complained loudly, as if she couldn't bear it any longer: "It's tiring to keep fighting even weak enemies. Kobayashi, come up with an easy way!"

"Don't make it difficult for me!" Xiao Lin complained: "If it was so easy to think about, I wouldn't be so hard-working!"

First of all, it is certain that the phantom created by this tower has no entity, so both the Headless Knight Beldia and the Toxic Slime Hans have a certain resistance to Aqua's flood. In addition, Toxic Slime Hans is really thick-skinned. Every time Aqua creates a flood, he will swallow as much water as possible to make his body bigger, and then endure the beatings of Xiaolin and others. Although he is enduring the beating, it still gives Xiaolin and others a headache.

"Yes, if we continue like this, it will only increase the consumption of all personnel. We need to think of a solution... Well, in this case...!"

Xiaolin thought of a good idea.

He wanted to separate the two headless knights, so that he might not be able to prevent the death of one of them and the resurrection of the other.

“Wiz, Aqua! Listen carefully, we are going to split into two groups!”

"The troops are divided into two groups?"

“That’s right! Wiz will go around from the right and use my magic to freeze the Demon King’s general, the Toxic Slime Hans! Aqua will attack from the left and show the Dullahan Beldia the power of purification magic!”

Kobayashi gave such clear instructions, and asked the two people who were conducting a special attack against the Demon King's Army cadres to act separately.

“Of course, that’s no problem…” Wiz agreed decisively, but was also curious: “But why do we have to act separately?”

"Since if one is killed, the other will help revive, then we have to kill both at the same time." Xiao Lin said as a matter of course: "It just so happens that you two are their weaknesses, so we have to split up into two groups. In addition, you must strictly follow my instructions later. You are absolutely not allowed to kill one of them first. Do you understand!?"
