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

Doctors were thus transformed into feared killers.

Combat Skill: Small Steps

A combat technique used by fighters to disrupt enemy tactics.

Able to move quickly with light steps,

Instead of moving long distances, he used skill to dodge attacks.

Consumes focus to increase movement speed.

"It's true! This is a short spike used specifically for executions!"

Ye Yiyi showed a look of delight, "And judging by the shape of this short thorn, it seems that it can be used to break armor!

“Even if I can’t break through the heavy armor, I can still use it to poke the slits of those bucket helmets!

"Coupled with this short-step combat technique, it can be used to attack enemies with less skill, like the Blood Axe Holy Blood Knight, with large-scale attacks. It's simply a sure kill!"

After happily putting away the dagger, Ye Yiyi continued to search the body.

Then he took out a water-soaked wooden crossbow and a small bag of crossbow arrows from behind the corpse.

"The crossbow is also a good means of long-range output. When paired with various crossbow arrows with special effects, it can also produce considerable damage.

"It's a pity that this crossbow is broken, otherwise I would have another means of long-range output."

Light Crossbow (Damaged)

Ye Yiyi put away the light crossbow and prepared to take it back to the old blacksmith to see if it could be repaired.

Then he picked up the leather crossbow quiver and poured out the remaining crossbow arrows.

"Wooden crossbow bolts with cast iron arrowheads are the most common crossbow bolts. Unfortunately, the wood can't be soaked in water, so it's useless..."

He took out the universal cauldron, and with a flash of light, all the crossbows in his hand were broken into pieces.

Then you get half a piece of raw iron ore and a piece of garbage residue.

"It can only be said that it is a recycling of waste..."

After putting away the crossbow quiver and materials, Ye Yiyi continued to search for the corpse.

But unfortunately, apart from the above items, there is nothing valuable on the body of this Holy Blood Priest.

Ye Yi stood up and looked around, then continued to climb upwards.

When the Holy Blood Order launches an exploration of the cave, they will definitely not send only one person, as that would be tantamount to committing suicide.

A Holy Blood Priest died here, and maybe other Holy Blood Priest bodies will be found ahead.

After spending some time, Ye Yiyi finally climbed to the middle level of the karst pit.

He didn't encounter any other corpses of Holy Blood Priests on the way, but he did encounter a combination of two crabs and a giant lobster.

As soon as the three big seafood saw Ye Yiyi appear, they couldn't wait to rush towards him.

He decisively threw out the beast-summoning bait to divert the trouble away!

The hollow bone filled with concentrated blood and flesh fell directly on the lobster's forehead, soaking it thoroughly.

Then Ye Yiyi stood aside happily, watching the two crabs besiege the giant lobster.

Although the giant lobster is strong, it is still powerless against the joint attack of two crabs.

After a while, the lobster's shell was covered with dents from its claws.

But the crabs were not much better off, some were broken, some were injured, and all were bruised to varying degrees.

Ye Yiyi was not idle either. Taking advantage of the final moment when both sides were injured, he used a charged magic star hail to take away the three seafoods in one wave!

"If I kill a few more, I can level up two more times."

After glancing at the light curtain, Ye Yiyi leaned over and collected the materials from the seafood.

Compared to the scraping damage caused by the star hail in the sewer, the hard shells of these seafood were riddled with holes by the magical star hail.

The fundamental reason is the improvement of intelligence.

For Ye Yiyi today, even if he is besieged by seafood, it will not pose much threat.

After collecting a pair of crayfish claws, two crab roes and a large pile of crab eggs, Ye Yiyi set off for the stalactites on the right side of the karst pit.

"Finally, it's time for the lava jumping part that I hate the most."

Standing on the edge of the karst pit, Ye Yiyi leaned over and looked down.

Along the gray rock wall, there are many stalactites extending from it.

These stalactites are not spacious, most of them are only one foot wide, and their surfaces are covered with water stains, making them look extremely slippery.

Countless stalactites extending outward form a dangerous path for people to pass through.

And deep beneath these stalactites lies the calm, scorching magma.

"This thing can't stand at all..."

Ye Yiyi tried to step on the stalactites, but then her foot slipped and she almost fell down.

Even so, he was still scared and broke into a cold sweat.

Ye Yiyi frowned as he glanced at the dung beetle peeking out from his robe.

"How do we get through this?"

Just walking on the slippery stalactites is difficult enough, let alone jumping down one step at a time.

Even in the game, this jumping part is disgusting enough that you have to start over if you are not careful.

In reality, with various environmental factors involved, wouldn't the difficulty increase by more than a hundred times?

"If I had more faith, I might be able to use the Eagle Calling skill to dive and glide over right now..."

Standing at the edge of the pit, Ye Yiyi couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Unlike in the game where he can start over countless times, in reality he has no chance to start over and can only succeed once.

Falling into the lava is a small matter, he can still use the fallen leaves to return to the holy monument.

But the time wasted on the way and the dung beetle's life will be in danger.

"Fly... call the eagle to swoop... fly, wait, fly over?"

An idea suddenly came to his mind, and he took out the Eagle-Wing Knight's silver spear from behind him.

Isn't the combat skill effect of this weapon to spread eagle wings behind the body, then fly forward and launch a surprise attack?

"Can I use this to skip the jumping part and fly directly to the square?"

He recalled how he had used the Eagle Wings surprise attack, and his eyes became brighter and brighter!

“Maybe it will work!”

He looked at the dung beetle in his arms and said, "What do you say? Do you want to take a gamble?"

The dung beetle waved the tentacles on its head, indicating that no matter what Ye Yiyi chose, no matter what the consequences of these choices were, it would be happy to accept them.

Following Ye Yiyi all the way, it has tasted different kinds of food and seen different scenery.

As a poop-hunting little brother, a dung beetle that is now dispensable, its experience has surpassed that of most people in the world.

Although her life was not perfect, she had no regrets...

This is exactly what it wanted to express. Ye Yiyi was a little moved and almost shed tears.

"Don't look like you're about to die and want to leave a last message, okay? What if we succeed?"

Ye Yiyi tried to comfort it, "Besides, I haven't found a wife for you yet. If you die, wouldn't it seem like I'm dishonest?

“Life may not be perfect, but there are beautiful things waiting for us to discover.

"Finally, hold on tight, don't fall!"

The dung beetle clung to the robe tightly.

Ye Yiyi took a deep breath, then jumped high and raised the silver spear in his hand towards the sky.

Combat Skill: Eagle Wing Surprise Attack! Activate!

The translucent, lush wings spread out behind him, creating a strong wind as they flapped.

His figure was suspended in mid-air, and then he flew forward with the flapping of his huge wings.

In an instant, he rushed out of the karst pit and came to the lava lake.

"Wuhu!! It really took off!"

He overlooked the entire lava lake, drove his giant wings through the stalactites, flew and circled in the sky, and finally landed steadily on the metal square.

"Wow! This is so exciting!"

Feeling the sudden increase in temperature around him, he couldn't help but breathe heavily with excitement, then looked up into the sky.

The karst pit, with a vertical height of nearly 100 meters, is located high above the line of sight.

"Well! I think it's feasible!"

He looked at the dung beetle in his arms with complacency, but was surprised to see that it looked a little wilted and listless.

Looking around, he immediately slapped his forehead.

"This place is close to the magma sea! The temperature is too high!"

He himself is a strong man who can swim in magma, so he can't even feel the high temperature.

But the dung beetle, which is just an ordinary insect, can’t stand it!

As he ran towards the depths of the metal square, he looked back at the metal bridge that was getting farther and farther away, and the circular tower built in the lava lake.

"But then I won't be able to go to the tower."

But this is not important. The life of the dung beetle is more important.

Walking deeper into the square, a metal building built into the gray rock wall appeared before him.

At the end of the square there is a double metal gate that is 15 meters high, and next to the gate there are several small doors.

The door is locked and cannot be opened.

However, the small door on the side had no door at all and was completely open.

It was obvious that people had to go through a small door. Ye Yiyi went in and took a look, only to be surprised to find that it was not a small path, but a single-person mechanical elevator leading to the upper floor.

The bridge cannot be walked on and the gate on the side cannot be entered, so Ye Yiyi can only choose to take the elevator upstairs.

When we got here, the temperature finally dropped and the dung beetles gradually regained their vitality.

"Let's go, it's time to go up."

After making sure that the trouble-seeking little brother was safe, Ye Yiyi pulled down the lever on the wall.

"Click, click..."

As the sound of metal mechanisms turning rang out, the single-person elevator slowly moved upwards.

“This is actually a sightseeing elevator?”

Ye Yiyi looked at the transparent glass outside the elevator curiously. From the outside, it was a dark metal wall, but from the inside, he could see the entire lava sea through the metal.

"Wait? What's that?"

At this moment, a red object circling in the sky around the circular tower attracted his attention.

He took out his telescope and looked, and his mouth opened wide.

"That's actually a flying dragon!?"

"Roar!!"

The loud dragon roar traveled across the entire lava sea and reached Ye Yiyi's ears.

As the elevator ascended into the rock face, the scene in front of it disappeared.
