Chapter 256 The Minotaur must die

However, although Li You didn't want to cause trouble, the soldiers here didn't seem to think so.

They will give priority to attacking the lizard people, but they will not show mercy if they find that Li You and others are nearby.

Li You had no choice but to deal with all the soldiers and lizard people who came to cause trouble.

The group of people walked through the road surrounded by ruins of broken temples, avoiding the main battlefield where soldiers and lizardmen fought.

And because it was too conspicuous, the striped tiger "Nemea" was also abandoned, and Xiao De was reluctant to leave it when he left.

They tried not to provoke soldiers and lizardmen at the same time, so as not to be involved in the melee, but they were inevitably slowed down. The lizardmen seemed to launch attacks all over the land at the same time.

"Shh-"

Li You flashed his sword and killed the two lizard men in front of him. Yellow-green blood spurted out.

The killing movement was crisp and clean, but Li You frowned slightly.

What he just cut were two lizardmen, one red and one green. The green-skinned one was just fine. The red-skinned one, when Li You swung the knife, he felt that his skin seemed to be thicker and tougher than the others outside. , so much so that the sword he used with 80% of his power just now failed to cut this guy in two.

"After all, it's not set by the game. Enemies of the same type have the same blood volume."

Li You was still thinking, when a black shadow suddenly passed before his eyes. Ye Ge stabbed the red-skinned lizard man into the chest, and the lines on the sword began to shine with dark red light.

"Li You! Didn't you agree that this guy would be handed over to me? You didn't call me!"

"If they are completely dead, they will be of no use to me!"

Li You raised his hand: "Okay, okay, I won't forget it. Come on, I'll just use you."

Ye Ge was then satisfied: "You know what I mean!"

Li You pulled out Ye Ge, exerted a little force with his hand, and an electric current passed through its body, stimulating it so much that it screamed: "Ouch——!"

"Don't do it suddenly, tell me in advance!"

Li You ignored it, waved it by its handle, and walked towards the next lizard man.

According to Ye Ge, although this kind of red-skinned lizardman doesn't know what's special about it, their blood is slightly beneficial to it, so Yege clamored to ask Li You and others to leave all the red-skinned lizardmen to it.

Li You saw that Xiaode and Xiaopa really didn't care about a magic sword that could fly, talk, and suck blood, so he just let it go.

It was already night, but neither the soldiers nor the lizardmen had any intention of stopping.

Li You and his party were temporarily separated to deal with the enemy individually. Because if they get together, their target is too big and they will soon become the target of attacks by the Golden Kingdom soldiers and lizard people, so they work in groups of two at most.

Xiao De and Xiao Pa walked together as a matter of course, Li You was with Aiji, and Ye Ge was beside him. As for Yuzi, after all, he has a large and conspicuous bag, so he walked all the way by himself, but even so, he was still the fastest.

Li You took Ye Ge and killed a few more lizardmen. For Li You, Ye Ge is a solid sword. It is not as easy to use as Lei Guang Yueying, but fortunately Ye Ge himself is conscious and can assist his movements, so it will not affect his performance.

Ye Ge flew through the air, bringing with it a faint purple-red light, and disemboweled another red-skinned lizard man. Then, Li You stabbed Ye Ge into his chest and let Ye Ge suck blood.

There were two muffled sounds behind him, and Aggie swung his chained broad-bladed sword and chopped off the heads of two ordinary lizard men.

She shook the chained sword again, and the blade separated from the guard and handle, and a slender but strong iron chain extended out.

Aggie grabbed the chain, swung it twice, and then threw it. The wide blade dragged the chain and stabbed the last lizard man in the head!

"Pfft-"

The lizard man didn't expect Aggie's surprise attack. He couldn't dodge and was directly pierced. Aiji easily put his hand back, pulled back the flying sword blade, and put it back on the hilt.

Ye Ge had just finished absorbing the blood of the red-skinned lizard man at this time. In its words, although the blood of these lizardmen is somewhat useful to it, its purity is too low, which is better than nothing, so it absorbs it quickly.

But even though it said that, Li You thought that even Yuzi seemed to be a little interested in the red-skinned lizard people before, and even pulled off two pieces of their crowns and chewed them.

Being able to attract the attention of Yuzi and Yege at the same time, it seems that these lizards do have something?

It seems that his method of identification is somewhat cruel.

All the enemies that surrounded the two men had been eliminated, and Yuzu, who was opening the way ahead, seemed to have dealt with the enemies as well.

Now there are only two brothers, Xiao De and Xiao Pa, who are behind at the end, and they haven't dealt with the pursuers yet.

Unlike Li You and the others, the two brothers faced human enemies, soldiers chasing after them.

Two elite soldiers led the team and surrounded Xiaode and Xiaopa.

The leading soldier captain carried a wooden-handled sledgehammer on his shoulder, with a small curved hook at the end of the square hammer head. He came a few steps in front of the two brothers and said:

"Give up - now is the time for the sledgehammer! You guys have no chance! Give up the resistance honestly, I promise it will be over soon!"

His face was full of confidence. It was probably the heavy sledgehammer in his hand that gave him courage and prevented him from noticing the surprise flashing in the eyes of the two brothers as they communicated.

"superior--!"

The soldier captain gave the order and rushed towards the two brothers with a sledgehammer, but Xiaopa moved faster and had already waved and threw the spear in his hand!

Xiaopa's spear throw was precise and swift. The heavy wooden spear flew out and pierced the soldier captain carrying the sledgehammer with lightning speed! That heavy hammer actually became the cause of his death.

Xiao De had already rushed forward and grabbed the sledgehammer. Facing the soldiers who rushed towards him in fear and anger, he raised the sledgehammer high!

"Boom-!!"

Unlike in the hands of the soldier captain, this sledgehammer, which looked extremely heavy at first sight, behaved like an ordinary wooden stick in Xiao De's hands and could be used easily.

Li You has personally tested the physical fitness of brothers Xiao De and Xiao Pa. Although they are still a little far behind him, they are already better than Ai Ji.

This kind of power combined with the heavy sledgehammer allows the Druid to swing the hammer without having to aim very hard. He can just hit it at the approximate location anyway!

There was a muffled sound, and most of the surrounding soldiers were knocked down by Xiao De. When he swung the hammer, he stimulated his blood energy at the same time, so when he hammered it down, dust rose from all over the ground. The soldiers were injured and died upon contact, and they had no resistance at all.

The remaining soldier captain looked at it and immediately became a little scared and wanted to make a strategic retreat. But as soon as he took two steps, a long sword pierced his chest from behind!

Xiaode pulled out his sword and let the soldier captain fall into the dust. Then he picked up his spear and said to his brother: "Let's go."

The two immediately found Li You and the others, and the group rejoined and quickly passed through the fighting area.

In the game, the temple area, like the Golden Forest, is divided into four small levels. However, Li You looked at the hand-drawn map the brothers took out and asked them again, and found that this area of ​​​​the world is not big, which is good news.

Xiaopa said that judging from the map, they had already walked less than half of the way. If they kept this speed, they would not be far from the next piece of land.

Hearing this, Li You immediately understood that the BOSS was about to happen.

Sure enough, not long after walking, the group came to a relatively empty ruins.

There were broken corpses everywhere, including human soldiers and lizardmen.

But the strange thing is that judging from the injuries on the bodies, no matter which party died of pure violent beatings and impacts, rather than sharp weapons.

In the ruins of the temple, there is a group of lizardmen surrounding them, waiting in full formation.

The red-skinned lizard man even encouraged morale: "The gods favor us, we will definitely win!"

Li You, who was secretly listening in, couldn't help but complain, the gods have cursed you, why do you still think they love you?

But then, dull footsteps and heavy breathing came from deeper in the ruins. Hearing this voice, the ordinary green-skinned lizardmen started to tremble.

"Hum ho——"

The strange sound gradually came closer, and finally, its owner appeared in front of the lizard people.

It was a humanoid monster nearly three meters tall. It was extremely muscular, with muscles all over its body, but it had a beast's head that looked a little like a cow or a wild boar on its neck.

It has a pair of thick horns on its head that grow diagonally upward. It has a golden ring on its nose, its eyes are red, and its vital parts are covered with dark brown fur, which is obviously extremely tough.

Minotaur, Minotaur!

"Come on——!!!" The red-skinned lizard man roared and rushed out holding a steel fork. But the Minotaur just reached out and slapped his steel fork away, then lowered his head and disemboweled him with the thick horns!

The Minotaur shook his head, shook the body of the red-skinned lizard man away, then looked at the remaining group of trembling ordinary lizard men, and suddenly let out a roar:

"Roar--!!!"

……

The lizard people were quickly crushed into pieces by the Minotaur. Its nose moved and it breathed out a thick breath. Seeing that there were no other enemies, it planned to leave.

But the next moment, a green light blade, carrying sword energy and vacuum waves, flew towards it!

The Minotaur was also startled, turned around and raised his arms, trying to resist.

The light blade struck directly at the crossed arms of the Minotaur, breaking through its tough hair and hard skin, cutting open the left arm stacked in front, and almost cutting off the tough bones!

The Minotaur let out an earth-shattering roar, but it could not prevent the subsequent vacuum waves from coming one after another, tearing its flesh and blood into little snowflakes along the wounds. "Roar--!"

The Minotaur was extremely angry and rushed towards the direction from which the light blade flew, trying to find the despicable person who sneaked up on it.

But an even louder roar came from the darkness!

"Ow-!!"

A burly figure, not much shorter than the Minotaur, rushed out of the darkness and crashed into the Minotaur without hesitation!

"Boom-"

With a muffled sound, the Minotaur was knocked back repeatedly.

It shook its head vigorously, came to its senses, then roared and lowered its head, using the two horns on its head as a spear tip, and launched a fierce bull charge without hesitation!

However, Yuzu was not afraid at all. He looked up to the sky and roared angrily. Then he lowered his body slightly, and without dodging, he reached out his hands to meet the Minotaur's charge and directly grabbed its horns!

The Minotaur's all-out charge was so powerful that even Yuzu was unable to support it, causing the Minotaur to slide backwards, plowing two deep grooves in the ground with his feet. .

But Yuzu immediately roared again, her body muscles suddenly swelled, and she pushed her legs hard, stopping the Minotaurs' charge!

If the Minotaur could make human expressions, then his face must be filled with wonder at this moment.

But the most amazing scene has not yet come.

After Yuzu blocked the Minotaur's charge, she still refused to give in. She used more force with her hands, grabbed the Minotaur's horns, and lifted it up!

Minotaurs felt his body suddenly lighten, and Yuzu grabbed him by his horns and lifted him off the ground!

Xiao De and Xiao Pa, who were skimming the formation, were already dumbfounded.

"——That's a tauren!"

Not only them, but also the Minotaur himself, whose wide eyes also showed how surprised it was.

Yuzu roared one last time, grabbed the Minotaur and slammed it down!

"boom--"

Smoke and dust billowed, and the Minotaur was thrown to the ground, spitting blood from his mouth, and was seriously injured. But even so, it was still struggling, trying to get up.

But then, a black shadow jumped down from a high place. Li You held the primitive spear upside down with both hands, jumped down from the pillars of the temple, and pierced the Minotaur's back heart with one spear!

The Minotaur shuddered this time, blood spurted out of his mouth, and his eyes finally lost their light.

Li You pulled out his primitive gun and left his last words:

"——The tauren must die!"

……

After getting rid of the Minotaur Minotaur, Li You and his party found a relatively secluded ruin to rest.

They didn't make a fire because the battle between the El Dorado soldiers and the lizard men continued.

Ai Ji was still responsible for standing guard as usual, while Xiao De and Xiao Pa gathered around Li You, watching him sitting in front of the workbench, polishing a pair of horns.

It is obvious that this is the horn on the head of the Minotaur.

Li You was not interested at first, but he couldn't resist the repeated persuasion of the two brothers, saying that the Minotaur's horns were rare things in the world, and it would be a pity not to take them away, so he cut off the horns and gave them to Li You. Take it for processing.

Considering that Yuzi had to go through so much trouble, the pair of horns were not broken. They should indeed be made of very strong materials, and Li You didn't mind a little trouble.

The Minotaur's horns were large and hard, nearly half a meter long, and were very difficult to cut.

Fortunately, the tools on the workbench can be infinitely replenished, so in the end, Li You successfully cut a horn and made a horn cup.

As for the remaining materials, he put them all into the storage box on the workbench. Anyway, the space inside was not in vain.

To his surprise, the horn cup he made was certified by the system and became a prop.

【Minotaur Horn Cup】

[Item description: A water cup made from the horn of the Minotaur. Putting tea, wine, and other drinks into the cup can improve the quality and taste of the drink itself. 】

After playing with the translucent horn cup, Li You suddenly smiled and handed it to Xiao De and Xiao Pa.

"It is said that the wine glass made of the horns of the Minotaur can make the wine more mellow. Do you want to give it a try?"

The two brothers looked at the horn cup in Li You's hand and swallowed. Xiao Pa was a little better and could barely control himself, while Xiao De was already disappointed with tears streaming down from the corners of his mouth.

Li You laughed and did not quell their appetite. He took out the flask, poured a glass of wine and handed it to the brothers.

Xiao De couldn't wait to take it, took a sip, and then showed a look of despair: "This taste... bliss..."

Li You grabbed the wine glass and said, "Come on! Stop it!"

Xiao Pa also took the horn cup and took a sip. Although it was not as exaggerated as Xiao De, he was still in a trance for a moment: "...It is really a wine of the gods!"

Li Youyou said, "So awesome? Okay, I'll give you this wine glass."

The two brothers, who were still immersed in the taste of the wine, immediately woke up and said hurriedly: "This can't be done! Li You and you defeated this Minotaur. We didn't do anything, so how can we take your trophy?"

However, Li You still forced it on them: "Take it! We have been friends for a long time, why are we talking about this? There is still one horn. At worst, I will make another one."

Xiaode and Xiaopa were speechless for a moment. Finally, Xiaode solemnly took the horn cup and said, "Then we will accept it. Li You, we swear in the name of the descendants of Poseidon, the God of the Sea, that we will definitely work with you to rescue the princess and lift your curse!"

Li You waved his hand, too lazy to explain any more.

Ever since the brothers decided that he was a "descendant of gods", they had decided that the goal of his trip was to lift the curse. They didn't know how they came up with the idea... Are you addicted to the epic poem of Hercules?

He said no more and just said: "You have worked hard today. You should go and rest. I will call you when you are on duty later."

The two brothers nodded and left. Li You looked at his pocket watch and felt that he was in good spirits and not too sleepy, so he simply took out the Minotaur's horn and continued processing.

By the time Aggie came to ask him to change his shift, he had already grinded out another horn cup and also combed out two horns.

It's not that he's uncreative, it's just that he's too lazy to think about what he wants to do and relies purely on feel.

Seeing Ai Ji come in, Li You handed the comb over: "Would you like to try it? The Minotaur's horn comb can dredge the meridians, promote blood circulation in the head, calm the nerves and strengthen the brain, and even... Hair care!”

"This is not a false advertisement, it is a real therapeutic effect! If it were sold, it would cost hundreds or even thousands, right?"

Aggie: “…………”

"Stand guard, you go!" She threw Li You out of the ruins.

……

At the same time, inside the ruins of the temple where Minotaurs fell.

Footsteps sounded one after another, and the light of torches illuminated the scene inside the temple.

A huge shadow covered the body of the Minotaur, and then a male voice said:

"...Someone was able to defeat the Minotaur, and it seemed that he overpowered it with brute force."

"Hmm, hum, hum, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

"Good! Very good! I have been stuck here for so long, and finally I have someone worthy of my action!

"Hey, you! Let's all go and find me the person who defeated the Minotaur!

"Then no one is allowed to touch...he's mine!

"Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!"

The shadows on the ground shook, and a naked strong man stood up.

He picked up the torch that was stuck on the ground, raised it back to normal height, then lowered his head and said to the man in front of him who was only as high as his waist: "As you command, Lord Hercules."

"Hmph, okay. Go ahead."

The little dwarf Hercules folded his arms and raised his head in response, and the strong man immediately retreated.

Hercules looked at the Minotaur's body again and said:

"I have been trapped in this body for too long. Don't let me down, otherwise..."

"Humph!"
