It was supposed to be a Mythic card set, but what the heck is this Warhammer 40k?

Chapter 173 Blood Raven Steals the Base Right From the Start!

No one expected that the withered body, which had been dried up for many years, would come back to life at this moment.

One of the card masters in Xiao Ming's team, named "Yu Hai," was the first to react, and he quickly summoned a swordsman card.

As the swordsman appeared, his longsword sliced ​​through the air and pierced towards the withered body.

With a "whoosh" sound, the sharp blade sliced ​​off the head of the monk's body.

However, even without its head, the body still lunged at the crowd as if nothing had happened.

"Holy crap, what the hell is this thing? How can it keep moving even without a head?"

Upon witnessing this bizarre scene, everyone was immediately horrified.

But Lu Ya quickly realized the problem: "This guy has a problem with his neck!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked over and saw a small red head peeking out from the severed neck of the body, with two tendril-like things attached to it.

After Lu Ya's reminder, Yu Hai quickly gave orders to the swordsmen.

The summoned swordsman swung his sword once more, cleaving the monk's body in two.

As the monk's body was split open, a writhing object fell directly out of the body.

Everyone stared intently, and gasped in shock.

This was a centipede as thick as an arm, and its head even had a bizarre human face.

The thing that controlled the monk's body and every move before was this huge centipede with a human face!

The centipede seemed unwilling to give up. The moment it lost its shell, the human-faced centipede twisted its enormous body and quickly crawled toward the card master's corpse on the ground!

"Oh no, this centipede is trying to parasitize us!"

Someone immediately noticed the centipede's behavior and quickly spoke up to warn it.

But Yu Hai was clearly not going to give the centipede that chance. The swordsman raised his hand and slashed down, piercing the centipede's body and pinning the huge centipede to the ground.

Before its gruesome death, the human face on the centipede's body let out a shrill scream, like the cry of an infant, which was particularly chilling.

After dealing with the centipede, Yu Hai snorted coldly.

"These bugs aren't that scary. Once they lose their host, killing them is as easy as killing a chicken."

However, no sooner had Yu Hai finished speaking than Lu Ya poured cold water on him, pointing ahead and saying...

"Since you're so confident, buddy, why don't you take care of the rest?"

Upon hearing Lu Ya's words, Yu Hai looked in the direction Lu Ya pointed.

After the centipede with the human face screamed, all the monks in the temple who had long been dead and were now just withered shells suddenly began to stir.

Upon witnessing this scene, Yu Hai couldn't help but swallow hard. He quickly chuckled awkwardly and said, "Maybe we should just forget about it. This number would probably kill me!"

At that moment, Mr. Qian, who had been wearing a gloomy face, stepped forward.

"I'm here! I'm going to burn all this filthy stuff to ashes!"

It was clear that Mr. Qian was already burning with rage.

Lu Ya could understand why the old man was so angry.

After all, this old man had only been in this ancient city for a short time, and he had already lost a young card master!

The key point is that this card master didn't die in some dangerous place, but because of carelessness, he died from a "mystery-tale" level monster like the human-faced centipede!

This situation is very unfavorable for the old man's next actions!

It would be a miracle if the old man wasn't angry!

As soon as Old Qian finished speaking, a hellish demon engulfed in raging flames appeared beside him.

The temperature in the entire temple suddenly rose the moment this hellish demon appeared.

Faced with the centipedes with human faces that were controlling the monks' bodies and lunging at it, the hellish demon suddenly opened its mouth, and raging flames spewed out from its mouth, instantly igniting all the withered bodies.

For a moment, the excruciating pain from the burning flames caused the human-faced centipedes inside their shells to emit piercing screams.

The shrieks were like demonic sounds, piercing the eardrums and causing pain.

Soon, a foul stench of burnt protein filled the air.

Lu Ya couldn't take it anymore, so he quickly walked out of the temple to catch his breath.

However, just after stepping out of the temple gate, a strange movement suddenly came from Lu Ya's sea of ​​consciousness.

The moment Lu Ya sensed this unusual movement, he was stunned.

Because he was all too familiar with this unusual movement.

This unusual movement comes from Blood Raven!

Upon realizing the source of this anomaly, Lu Ya's expression immediately turned strange.

What treasure has this guy found this time?

Lu Ya couldn't help but ponder.

He knew very well that after dealing with the centipedes with human faces in the temple, Xiao Ming and his team would definitely conduct a thorough search of the entire temple.

There's basically no point in me staying here any longer.

This is perfect. Blood Raven has found something good. Why don't he go with Blood Raven? He might even gain something from it.

With this in mind, Lu Ya no longer hesitated. After a brief farewell to Xiao Ming, he summoned the Blood Raven.

As soon as Blood Raven appeared, its gaze eagerly turned in a certain direction.

Without hesitation, Lu Ya quickly followed in Blood Raven's footsteps.

Along the way, Blood Raven led Lu Ya through the intricate alleys of the ancient city, turning left and right.

This complicated route left Lu Ya completely bewildered.

He had absolutely no idea where Blood Raven wanted to take him.

Blood Raven remained silent, simply leading the way, and Lu Ya could only continue to follow.

But the further Lu Ya went, the more he sensed that something was wrong.

Because Lu Ya discovered that the levels of the insect swarms he encountered along the way were rapidly changing.

From the beginning, he only encountered some "mystery-level" swarms of insects, which were easily dealt with by Blood Raven.

But not long after, he gradually discovered the appearance of some "contamination-level" insects.

However, Lu Ya didn't take this matter too seriously.

In Lu Ya's view, it was perfectly normal for some "polluting" insects to appear in this ancient city.

If it weren't for the fact that taking action now might attract a large swarm of insects, Lu Ya would have wanted to deal with these "polluted" insects and turn them into material cards.

After all, "contaminated" monsters have a chance of producing blue-quality material cards.

This is exactly what Lu Ya needs right now.

But Lu Ya suppressed his emotions and continued walking forward with Blood Raven.

However, as he walked further, Lu Ya began to lose his composure.

Because he discovered it.

The number of "contamination-level" insects around them began to increase, and Lu Ya also discovered the appearance of several "nightmare-level" insects!

This scene left Lu Ya with an expression of disbelief.

You should know that since Lu Ya transmigrated to the present, he has only encountered a handful of "nightmare-level" monsters!

But now, he has encountered several "nightmare-level" insects in succession.

Moreover, it was different from the "strange tale" and "polluting" swarms he had encountered before.

These "nightmare-level" insects are much larger.

Moreover, the insect's shape has changed, so it can no longer be called an insect; it should be called an "alien"!

These "nightmare-level" aliens no longer need to rely on numbers to defeat their opponents; they already possess powerful hunting abilities.

Upon seeing these "nightmare-level" aliens, Lu Ya couldn't help but gasp.

Although with Lu Ya's current strength, dealing with these "nightmare-level" aliens is not a difficult task.

But upon seeing these aliens, Lu Ya couldn't help but grin.

Fortunately, thanks to Blood Raven's ability "psychic precognition," Blood Raven almost easily avoided these "nightmare-level" aliens.

These aliens were completely unaware of the presence of Blood Raven and Lu Ya.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, the Blood Raven walking ahead suddenly stopped.

This made Lu Ya raise an eyebrow.

Have we finally arrived?

Lu Ya subconsciously looked up and saw a palace appear in his field of vision.

When Lu Ya saw the palace, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Lu Ya was stunned not because the palace was so magnificent, but because of the strange creatures that roamed around it.

It was a bizarre creature that looked like a mosquito but was enormous.

This strange creature was covered with a layer of jet-black shell as hard as armor.

The strange creature was currently perched in front of the palace, seemingly guarding something.

Most importantly, there's the aura emanating from this monster.

If Lu Ya's judgment is correct, this should be a "Calamity-level" monster!

You should know that this is the first time Lu Ya has encountered a "calamity-level" monster!

According to the Card Master Alliance's classification standards for monsters, "Nightmare-level" monsters have the combat power of purple cards, while "Calamity-level" monsters are equivalent to silver cards!

This means that even Lu Ya in his current state has absolutely no confidence in dealing with the monster in front of him!

Lu Ya's Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily, and he swallowed hard.

No, buddy!

Where did you bring me from?!

If Lu Ya wasn't mistaken, this place should be the lair of these insects!

Otherwise, there's no way to explain why there would be a "calamity-level" monster guarding this place!

Thinking of this, Lu Ya couldn't help but grimace.

He never expected that the treasure Blood Raven had set its sights on was actually in the nest of these insects!

Lu Ya finally understood why chaos always erupted wherever the Blood Raven passed.

After all, under normal circumstances, these card masters would definitely advance steadily from the outside, eliminating all the insects and aliens along the way, before finally dealing with this "calamity-level" monster in front of them.

But Blood Raven is different. Relying on its psionic ability to foresee things, Blood Raven came straight over to raid the base!
