DOTA’s Madness

Jiang Cheng's fear was almost written on his face, and Zhao Dingguo was not a fool, so he could naturally see it.

Out of various considerations, Zhao Dingguo decided to reassure him, so he clearly rejected other super users who tried to join along the way.

It was not difficult to make this decision. The biggest reason was that Zhao Dingguo felt that it was not difficult to break into the Naga clan's underground palace with their current force. In this case, it doesn't matter who comes, so why bother yourself? What's more, there is only one temple guardian in the underground palace altar. Now in order to enter the altar in the underground palace, everyone naturally cooperates sincerely, but after entering, I am afraid that they will suddenly become competitors?

If a piece of equipment such as a mysterious staff is dropped, it is normal for them to immediately turn against each other.

Besides, Jiang Zheng was of average strength, and with him leading the way, Zhao Dingguo didn't have to worry about what tricks he would pull off. If Jiang Cheng is kicked out and replaced by other masters whose origins are unknown, Zhao Dingguo might have to allocate extra energy to guard against the opponent, which would be unsightly.

Zhao Dingguo's statement naturally made Jiang Cheng very grateful. Although he also knew that even if he entered the underground palace with his own strength, he would probably not get much benefit. However, if you can get in, you will have more opportunities, and you can also gain a lot of experience, right? For this reason, he often said some words of thanks.

Zhao Dingguo took him with him not just to listen to his flattery. He frowned and waved his hand to continue on the road.

As for the super users who followed from afar, Zhao Dingguo had nothing to do with them. Trying to get rid of them in vain is not only useless, but also a waste of your own time. Since they are willing to follow, let them follow. Zhao Dingguo is confident in his own strength. I'm not afraid of what kind of trouble they might stir up.

As he continued to move forward, Zhao Dingguo could clearly feel that the terrain was declining. Although the slope is not large, the moss-covered stone slabs are obviously extremely slippery after being penetrated by the seawater in the dome. This change made Zhao Dingguo realize that they were approaching the underground palace of the temple.

However, this also means that they will encounter more and stronger monsters guarding the temple!

Compared with the corridors outside the temple, the level of danger here is obviously much higher. We have just passed the first arched stone pillar painted with the sea giant's beliefs. The five of them were attacked by no less than ten monsters at once. Among them are the sea monsters of the Markula family and the three-headed snake that attacks with venom. There is a sea element with a dark blue color and a stun skill, and there is also a genuine sea giant guard who is personally on duty.

Even though there are three dusk masters in this temporary team, the other two are also high-level Xu Ri who are not weak in strength. But when he suddenly encountered such a siege, he was still caught off guard!

Jiang Cheng, who was at the front, was first cursed with an attack miss by the Markkula sea monster, and then slowed down by the passive poison damage of the three-headed sea snake. Finally, he was knocked out by someone who drew blue and had the sea element throw ice cubes to knock him out. . A series of skills hit him and he instantly lost his temper.

Another melee fighter also had a hard time, being attacked by four monsters at the same time!

If there is no healer in the team, it will undoubtedly be difficult to deal with so many monsters at the same time. The best way is to fight while retreating, and take turns coming out to resist damage. but. If there is a dark animal husbandry, there is no need to go to such trouble. Seeing that the situation was a bit tight, Shen Caiwei first added up the Shadow Wave, then used her ultimate move Weave, and added a Frost Armor to the two of them.

The added defense of lv1 frost armor is limited. But it can effectively reduce the threat of melee monsters. Combined with the ultimate move of weaving, the effect is even more immediate!

Of course, Zhao Dingguo would not let these monsters attack. Ordinary methods such as electromagnetic vortex and the like were not easy to use against these rough-skinned and fleshy monsters. So, he directly cut out the super-seismic sound waves and chaos meteorites, and smashed them at the place where the monster group was the densest. The blazing meteorite crushed over the monster with unstoppable momentum. These sea monsters immediately panicked. The continuous burning for the next three seconds also caused a lot of subsequent damage.

After the Queen of Pain threw a shadow attack on a sea element, she saw the power of Zhao Dingguo's Chaos Meteorite and released the Scream of Pain skill to coordinate with Zhao Dingguo's actions.

A group of 300 points of damage in seven seconds is still considerable to deal with these monsters. However, perhaps out of the consideration of saving a hand, the Queen of Pain did not use her ultimate move Ultrasonic Shock Wave. She was probably still wary of the few guys watching from a distance behind.

But it doesn't matter, these outputs are enough to drink a pot of the monsters that come over.

No one here is stupid, they all know that it is better to cut off one finger than to hurt ten of them. After the AOE was thrown, several people immediately started to catch a few monsters with the lowest health and beat them. Under the armor-breaking effects of weaving magic and lava elves, the monsters' armor was almost reduced to a negative value, making their output appear particularly high.

Even Jiang Cheng, a high-ranking member of Xuri, can deal critical hits of 300+ damage from time to time when facing monsters from Poseidon Temple!

As two or three sea monsters fell one after another, the pressure on the five-person team began to decrease rapidly. The most direct proof is that Shen Caiwei gradually slowed down the pace of treatment. While ensuring that her magic power was sufficient, she also began to take the time to fight back, and even tried the forked lightning scepter she had just obtained.

Unlike the red lightning shot by Dagon's divine power, the color of the forked lightning is blue. With the injection of magic power, the top of the scepter instantly fired three 200-point damage, hitting three monsters directly in front of her. Although the damage is not comparable to that of Zhao Dingguo and the Queen of Pain, it is still an attack method that cannot be ignored.

This also made the three temporary teammates even more unpredictable about their trump cards.

After taking care of these monsters without much effort, the five people continued to move forward. Because there is more than one road leading to the center of the underground palace, each super user has his or her own choice, so from time to time the five of them may encounter a situation where the monsters in a certain corridor have just been killed. At this time, they can pass quickly, but naturally they will also be killed. When a group of monsters besiege you. All in all, after a bumpy journey, I managed to reach the end of the inner corridor.

The only pity is that we didn't encounter many elite monsters in the temple along the way.

For Zhao Dingguo, who has seen many elite monsters in secret realms, this is indeed something strange. Especially compared with the bosses and elite monsters that can be seen everywhere in the Carlo Vinci Secret Realm, the elite monsters here seem to be surprisingly few. Ten minutes ago, the five of them encountered an elite mud puppet. However, there are already a group of super users surrounding him. Seeing Zhao Dingguo and the others approaching, they immediately put on a highly vigilant posture, fearing that Zhao Dingguo and the others would cause trouble.

Zhao Dingguo and Shen Caiwei went there only for the temple guardians in the underground palace, and didn't think much about anything else. Seeing that the other party was guarding tightly, he didn't make any trouble and walked past calmly.

After passing the inner corridor of the temple, the next step is the curved corridor on the third floor, which is also the last section of the way into the underground palace.

Compared with the previous two floors, the monsters here are naturally stronger.

Basically, any super user who dares to give it a try can get through the first two floors and get here as long as their strength is not too bad. But if you go further down, if you don't have enough strength, I'm afraid it will be difficult to move forward. According to Jiang Cheng's own estimation, at least 60 to 70% of the super users are stuck here and cannot enter the underground palace!

At this point, Zhao Dingguo could clearly feel that the slope was getting steeper.

Because they intuitively felt the pressure, the five of them became really serious after entering the final stretch. It happened that another team also came here. Although it was not stated explicitly, the two parties still maintained a tacit attitude of cooperation. The two teams worked together and successfully carved a passage through the monster group, gradually advancing to the bottom of the arc-shaped corridor.

Due to the increase in the number of monsters, not long after they came down, the way back was blocked by monsters from other places.

Powerful super users may still dare to take risks and rush in, but those guys hanging far behind are more likely to be completely thrown away.

After working together to kill the last batch of swarming monsters, Zhao Dingguo and the others walked out of the last passage with a slope of nearly 30 degrees and stepped onto the flat ground. In the blink of an eye, the curved corridor, which was originally not very spacious, suddenly connected to a huge square square. Magic torches hanging upside down can be seen at regular intervals on the dome that is tens of meters high, and the ground is made of ancient bluestone bricks. On both sides of the square square are boundless dark abyss, and the sound of rushing water can be vaguely heard below.

That was an undercurrent introduced by the sea giant through unknown means. Although there was no wind in the underground palace, they could smell a faint smell of sea water.

Jiang Cheng looked around and said to Zhao Dingguo: "This is the underground palace!"

According to the experts who first entered here, if you walk along the underground palace to the central yang, you can see the altar of the entire temple. However, the altar is the centerpiece of the temple, where the largest number of monsters gather. Ordinary super users cannot get in at all, and Jiang Cheng has not been able to get in either.

Zhao Dingguo was still very confident in his own strength, so he led the team forward without making too many observations.

The temple of the sea giant clan is different from other secret realms. The portal of light only appears for six hours a day. If the stay times out, you will be automatically ejected from the secret realm. The next time I entered, I was randomly teleported to the outside of the temple again and had to come back again. Therefore, Zhao Dingguo will not waste too much time here, he wants to enter the altar as soon as possible.

The master of the Queen of Pain also had the same attitude and quickly followed her without Zhao Dingguo urging her.

However, the danger level of the underground palace was still higher than they expected. The most obvious point is that the number of sea giants appearing here has increased. Although these sea giants are not truly elite monsters, they can still be considered leaders.

Such density already gave Zhao Dingguo the feeling of being in the secret realm of Carlo Vinci! (To be continued...)
