This isn't a souls-like game at all.

No need to think, it must be the magician's tower under your feet.

Directly above the tower, at the edge of the circle, there is a small door.

That should be the location of the ancient ruins gate.

But there was a big cross on the door. Ye Yiyi thought about it for a moment and felt that the cross meant that the door could not be opened.

In other words, the gate of the ancient ruins is closed and cannot be entered from the outside.

For this purpose, an arrow is also provided on the map, pointing out a road that bypasses the gate of the ancient ruins and enters the ancient ruins.

That place is located on the right side of the tower, and is a deep pit appearing above the ground.

But next to the location of the deep pit, there is a small skull painted on it.

"Are you saying this crypt is dangerous again?"

After pondering for a moment, Ye Yiyi recalled the Eagle-Winged Knights wandering in the Poison Basin.

There is a high possibility that this deep pit is the lair of the New Women Queen!

"But how can you kill a tiger without going deep into its den?"

Ye Yiyi put away the map and hymn book, then looked up at the broken dome.

By this time it was getting dark and it was raining.

But strangely, when the raindrops approached the dome of the spire, they seemed to hit an invisible wall of air and then flowed away along one side.

"No wonder it's so dry here, it turns out the rain isn't falling."

Ye Yiyi suddenly realized and attributed this magical phenomenon to magic.

Then he continued to search the room for traces of magic, but until it was completely dark, Ye Yiyi still found nothing.

"Never mind. I've gained a magic ring, a hymn book, and a map. That's pretty good already."

Lying on the thin cloth, Ye Yiyi fell into a deep sleep with disappointment and expectation.

The second night at [Border] passed quietly.

The next morning, Ye Yiyi opened her eyes in the sunlight.

"Alright! Today's goal is to find and explore the deep pit and underground caves! Master Changhong Guanri, what do you think?"

The spear, on the verge of damage, remained silent and steady and reliable.

Ye Yiyi left the room and walked down the spiral staircase.

I glanced at the light screen on the way, and the blue bar that was 38 before going to bed last night was now full.

Simply resting can restore focus, but unfortunately, it can't restore cursed drops.

Ye Yiyi took out the still empty blue devil's claw and took a look at it, then stuffed it into the four-dimensional chrysanthemum in frustration.

It seems that in addition to finding a new usable weapon, finding another holy monument is also on the agenda.

Without the holy tablet, he cannot replenish his supplies. By the way, he can also go to the Cursed Temple and convert the soul echoes on his body into attribute points.

With nearly 2000 soul echoes, I can at least level up by two levels.

Climbing out from the narrow gate, Ye Yiyi was surprised to find that the millipede corpse that was discarded not far away yesterday had disappeared.

"What the hell, where's my millipede?"

Ye Yiyi walked around the open space with a spear on his back.

There is still a lot of fishy yellow millipede fluid on the ground. Perhaps the fluid contains nutrients, and many poisonous insects have become deeply addicted to it and cannot extricate themselves.

"Could it be that these bugs ate the millipede's corpse?"

After searching for a while, he finally found traces of the millipede's body being dragged.

In addition, there were footprints stained with fishy yellow body fluids, surrounded by fresh soil raised by dragging, extending deep into the woods.

Ye Yiyi took out the [Emergency Map], examined the direction of the footprints towards the sun, and then curled up the corners of his mouth.

The Poison Basin is full of poisonous insects. How could there be anyone else except Ye Yiyi?

These footprints undoubtedly belong to the Eagle-Winged Knight controlled by the Bride Spider.

"Just when I was worried about not knowing which way to go, here comes the guide to show me the way."

"How dare you steal my horse (land)!"

Ye Yiyi took the Changhong Guanri Zhenjun in his hand and followed the yellow footprints deep into the woods.

A corpse as big as a giant millipede would definitely not be dragged by just a few Eagle-Winged Knights.

The messy and complicated footprints on the ground proved this. The enemy was numerous and we must not show up rashly to avoid being besieged.

Fortunately, Ye Yiyi was not in a hurry. After all, there was someone leading the way, so what was there to rush about?

He stopped and walked along the way, leaving rainbow stones as road signs and picking up props and materials he saw along the way.

So a new prop material was discovered.

Poisonous Gu Mushroom

Item Description: A mushroom containing extremely poisonous substances, used as one of the materials for making props.

It can be found in forests where there is no sunlight and poisonous insects gather.

It is said that the poisonous mushrooms are delicious and are a rare delicacy that can only be tasted once in a lifetime.

Ye Yiyi looked at the mushroom in his hand, then at the light curtain, pondered for a moment, and then put it in his mouth.

! ! I'm poisoned! !

"It's delicious, but a little dry. Uh, seems to have caught up?"

From the distant woods, there was the sound of heavy objects being dragged and metal armor rustling.

Ye Yiyi quickly hid behind a tree trunk and quietly poked out a face with a dark green complexion and bulging cheeks.

The giant black and red millipede, which had already been ripped open, was being dragged by seven or eight eagle-winged knights towards the depths of the woods.

Chapter 12 Eagle Wing Knight Straight Sword

"Wow, there are so many people?"

Looking at a group of eagle-winged knights dragging the corpse of the millipede in the distance, Ye Yiyi was dumbfounded.

“……6、7、8，一共8个鹰翼骑士！等会，还有一个用剑盾的鹰翼骑士！一共9个！”

Ye Yiyi retracted his head, chewing the [Poisonous Mushroom] in his mouth while recalling the contents of the game.

Eagle-winged knight with sword and shield, holding sword in right hand and shield in left hand.

Unlike the Eagle-wing Knight who wields a gun with both hands, the Eagle-wing Knight with sword and shield is good at both offense and defense, and has superb swordsmanship, making him a rather troublesome enemy.

"It's a bit difficult to launch a sneak attack." Ye Yiyi muttered to himself.

Although he knew that there would be many people coming, he didn't expect there would be as many as 9.

Including the 6 Eagle-Wing Knights that Ye Yiyi had eliminated before, there are now at least 15 Eagle-Wing Knights.

"Did the New Queen of Luo wipe out an entire brigade of knights? Where did they get so many people from?"

Ye Yiyi scratched his head fiercely, totally confused.

Fifteen fully armed heavy-armored knights could easily defeat hundreds of conscripted soldiers in a foot battle.

If you ride a mount to increase your mobility, you will be a meat grinder on a small battlefield.

Ye Yiyi knew that his biggest weakness at the moment was insufficient output. Although he had unlimited health, his level was not high, and he had no effective means of output against groups of enemies.

When facing multiple enemies, if you fail to eliminate the enemy's manpower as soon as possible, you will be overwhelmed by the enemy's numerical advantage.

If I can't kill you, then I can capture you, cover you in cement and sink you in the lake, right?

"No matter what, I'll kill as many as I can. Otherwise, when I fight the New Women's Queen, I'll be drowned by the human wave!"

Ye Yiyi pondered for a moment, then made a decision.

"Follow us first. Once we reach the deep pit, we'll make plans based on the situation on the scene."

Because they were carrying such a heavy object as the giant millipede, the Eagle-Wing Knights and their group walked very slowly. It was not until the afternoon that they finally arrived at the deep pit cave on the map.

"That's the Deep Pit Crypt?"

Ye Yiyi hid between the branches of a tree and looked towards a place not far away.

However, the situation at the scene was somewhat beyond Ye Yiyi's expectations.

What he originally thought was a deep pit dungeon was actually a large hole in the ground. The Eagle-Winged Knight controlled by the Nephila spider went in and out as diligently as an ant.

Although there was indeed a hole in the ground here, it was surrounded by wooden fences, wooden houses, and even a collapsed stable.

This is basically a camp built by humans!

Besides, isn’t this place a basin deep in the mountains?

Where did the horse come from?

Or did the Eagle-Wing Knights, who were alive and established this camp, know of a hidden path outside the basin that could be used by horses?

Ye Yiyi couldn't figure it out.

But there is no need to think about it. No matter what the purpose of these knights was, they are now dead and have become puppets of the New Queen.

"But since there's a camp, I should be able to find a weapon that can replace Changhong Guanri Zhenjun's."

Ye Yiyi stared at the half-collapsed wooden houses, then cast his gaze towards the center of the camp, where the Eagle-Winged Knights were tearing the millipede's corpse apart with their bare hands, and couldn't help rolling his eyes.

Bugs are still bugs, even if they control human bodies.

But then Ye Yiyi observed that as the huge corpse of the millipede was dismembered, a giant Nephila spider, about the size of a wolf, crawled out from a deep pit nearby.

These spiders drill into the millipede's body and bite it, and when they come out of the body, their abdomens behind them have become bigger.

Then they entered the deep pit, and at the same time more spiders came out of the pit and entered the millipede's body, and the cycle continued.

The Eagle-winged Knights who had completed the transportation work left the camp one by one, and only the Eagle-winged Knight holding a sword and shield stayed behind to guard the place.

"That doesn't look like a spider at all."

Ye Yiyi watched them leave silently, thinking in his heart.

Compared to spiders that spin their own webs to hunt, these Nephila spiders behave more like a swarm, with different forms of spiders each performing their own duties.

The Internet New Women's Queen is the leader of this group.

"It's more difficult than I thought."

Ye Yiyi thought for a moment and looked up at the sky.

It was still light at this moment, and it seemed to be around four or five in the afternoon.

Although the sun was still hanging in the sky, it was gradually setting.

"We've wasted all our daytime traveling. We can't keep going like this. After nightfall, there's no light source. When we can't see anything, we can't fight these spiders."

Seeing that no one was paying attention, Ye Yiyi quietly jumped down from the tree.

The exploration seems to have reached a deadlock. Instead of waiting for death, it is better to find a way to kill the Sword and Shield Eagle Wing Knight who stayed in the camp.

But first you have to see if there are any usable weapons, otherwise it will be no fun if your spear is damaged halfway through the battle with the Sword and Shield Eagle Wing Knight.

Ye Yi lowered his body halfway and crept slowly along the wooden railing outside the camp.

Fortunately, this campsite had long been dilapidated and unattended, and all the surrounding trees had been cut down to build houses.

Now that the sun is abundant, Ye Yiyi is able to use the grass that has grown to half a person's height to shelter his body.

It wasn't long before they came to a broken railing that was wide enough for people to pass through.

Behind the railings is the wooden house, which blocks the view from inside the camp so that it cannot be noticed.

Ye Yiyi entered the camp and quietly climbed into the half-collapsed wooden house.

"Have it!"

In the messy wooden house, Ye Yiyi looked around and suddenly his eyes lit up.

He saw a large number of broken and rotten spears and a long sword in a scabbard under a collapsed wooden beam.
