Black Technology System: Beast Hunter

Chapter 45 Ghost Guard
"Looking at the decorations on the ground and the pattern here, it should be the central area, and there is absolutely no mistake."

Wang Ping was half lying on the ground, comparing the lines on it inch by inch, before raising his head after a while, pushing his glasses to confirm the authenticity.

"My god, I finally found the right place." Zheng Gu, whose arm was wrapped in bandages, let out a sigh of relief.

From the time they entered the ghost tower, they were either looking for the door, or on the way to find the door, and they had to meet the skeleton soldiers from time to time, fighting guerrillas, it was hard to describe.

Not only was he injured, but Tong Yu's head was also covered with scars. Even Ma Liang and Shi Ya, who were stronger, were exhausted.

Among the entire action team, there was only technician Wang Ping, who was quite a human being, but he also sprained his ankle during the confrontation with the skeleton soldiers just now.

"This place looks familiar, I seem to have seen it somewhere before." Shi Ya looked around this quaint hall, thoughtfully.

"Familiarity is normal." Ma Liang pointed to the left wall, where a huge black ax hung, "There has always been a legend that the central area of ​​the Ghost Tower is a copy of the original base of the Five Heroes back then. The giant ax is The weapon of the Hercules Yakelian, it is stained with the blood of the first dimensional beast to be killed in human history, and it is also the beginning of human's counterattack."

When Shi Ya was reminded by him, she immediately remembered that it was indeed about [-]% similar to the layout style of the former residence of the Five Heroes.

Speaking of the five heroes, they are the idols of the entire federation, and they are the invincible gods of war in the eyes of the first hunter.

Tong Yu and Zheng Gu next to them heard their words, their eyes sparkled immediately, and they looked at the pitch-black giant ax with adoring eyes, imagining the scene of the five heroes preparing for the battle in the Dimensional Area, with fascinated faces.

Compared to the two of them, Wang Ping's reaction was very flat. He stood up and pushed his glasses, speaking in a somewhat indifferent tone.

"Those claims are just fabricated by later generations. Take this giant ax as an example. There are many materials now showing that it is not the weapon of Yakelian, and it has never killed the dimensional beast at all."

"This is the first time I've heard of this kind of statement." Ma Liang turned his head and looked at Wang Ping with scrutiny. He is the strongest and usually controls his aura. People suddenly felt heavy breathing, and a sense of fear rose involuntarily in their hearts.

Even Shi Ya felt a little uncomfortable with this kind of momentum, but Wang Ping, who was the weakest, looked straight at Ma Liang. Although his face turned pale, he still refused to show any weakness.

"Boy, it's okay to create formations, but don't only focus on those dead things, otherwise your brain will become difficult to use."

Ma Liang snorted coldly, withdrew his outward aura, and said firmly, "No matter what time it is, one must not forget one's roots. If I hear such words again, I will personally ask you to distinguish between right and wrong."

The pressure on his body disappeared, and Wang Ping took a few breaths. Although he still looked a little dissatisfied, he didn't promote his so-called scientific theory any more.

"Okay, this is not a place for fighting spirit. Those skeleton soldiers may appear at any time, so it is better to enter the core area as soon as possible to complete the mission."

Shi Ya saw that Ma Liang didn't speak, and Tong Yu and Zheng Gu also looked angry, so she had to come out to smooth things over, and said to Wang Ping, "If you have any questions, you can go back and discuss them. The most important thing now is to find the book of Earl Phantom. Court."

Without saying a word, Wang Ping turned around and walked to the side to look for clues from the agency. Shi Ya winked at Tong Yu and Zheng Gu, signaling them to help Wang Ping, but the two young men were emotional and raised their heads. He refused to move the ground, so he shook his head and walked to the vicinity of Wang Ping to be on guard at any time.

Skeleton soldiers appeared without warning, as if they suddenly jumped out of a different dimension, and they should not be careless at any moment. After several encounters along the way, everyone had experience. Seeing Shi Ya like this, Tong Yu and Zheng Gu subconsciously pulled himself together.

"Speaking of which, that skeleton must be at least level 25. Just being swept away by it, I almost became a one-armed hero."

His arm was throbbing, Zheng Gu muttered a few words, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and said to Tong Yu.

"I've heard rumors from many people that Earl Phantom has a war beast, which is of ancient blood and extremely powerful."

"I know this too." Tong Yu rushed forward, "It is said that when Earl Ghost disappeared and the dimensional army attacked Ghost Town, it was this war beast that activated the formation and brought the entire Ghost Town to the end with the dimensional army. Then its The undead were trapped in the ghost tower, and they are still waiting for the master to come back."

"Fortunately, we were lucky and didn't encounter the undead of that war beast." Zheng Gu stuck out his tongue and joked.

"Where did so many undead come from?" Ma Liang came over, checked the injuries of the two men, and reminded: "The truly terrifying thing in the ghost tower is not the war beasts, but the ghost guards."

"What ghost guard? Is it stronger than the skeleton general?" Compared with the introverted Tong Yu, Zheng Gu had a more active personality. Seeing that Ma Liang's face had returned to normal, he asked curiously.

"Ghost Army Master, Skeleton General, and Armored Guards are all types of Skeleton Soldiers. Although they are stronger, they are not impossible to deal with." Ma Liang worried that the two would underestimate the enemy, so he simply said a few more words.

Because they entered the ghost tower with a mission, they prepared a lot of means to restrain the skeleton soldiers for this operation in advance, which is why they fought against a large number of skeleton soldiers one after another along the way, and there were no major casualties.

However, the ghost guards are not undead creatures, but mechanism puppets. Once encountered, their methods will not be useful.

The most important thing is that the ghost guards are specially made by Count Ghost to fight against dimensional beasts. It's not something they can handle at all.

Even Yang Zhan, who was known for his bravery back then, didn't dare to face the ghost guards head-on before he was injured, so he had to turn around and run away, let alone them.

"When you meet the ghost guards, your first task is to protect yourself and Wang Ping." Ma Liang briefly talked about the ghost guards, and solemnly ordered, "If the situation is not right, immediately retreat according to the previous plan. , don’t need to take Shi Ya and I into consideration.”

But before he finished speaking, the faces of the two people in front of him changed drastically. At the same time, an inexplicable warning sign rose from the bottom of Ma Liang's heart. This was his keen intuition formed through years of life and death.

"Horses, cavalry."

Zheng Gu and Tong Yu stared straight behind him, Ma Liang suddenly turned around, and saw a tall figure standing silently in the center of the hall.

When he saw the armor shining with blue light on the opponent's body, Ma Liang's pupils suddenly constricted, and he couldn't help but gasped.

"Ghost Guard."
