?Chapter 1251: 401.Mechanism boss_2


    In Nnd Lee’s heart, yers just needed to force him to stand up from his chair to meet his own cooperation demands.


    If the yers couldn’t do even that, then Nnd Lee would only regretfully shake his head, erase them from the underground, take the Death Artifact himself, and leave on a ship.


    “Bang bang bang bang—”


    Bullets fired from within the iron cage created a metallic tide, sweeping across the Treasure Room and striking the Skeleton Warriors approaching the cage.


    With the protection of the “Wind Clothes Technique,” the Skeleton Warriors were much more resistant than before; they were no longer the weaklings that scattered upon a single touch.


    Seeing that the left outer wall of the iron cage was about to be touched by a few Skeleton Warriors, the yer Commander knew that they couldn’t hold back anymore, otherwise they would eventually be submerged by the sea of skeletons. <div>


    ...


    “Raise theser turret! Fire the Burst Laser! Give it a 360-degree sweep!”


    “Roger!”


    With a ng, the iron cage opened the skylight, and a mechanical arm holding aser turret extended from it.


    The turret, resembling a rugged metal mortar, appeared crudely made, yet its power was exceptionally remarkable.


    Driven by the metallic mechanical arm, it circled around the iron cage, performing a 360-degree wide sweep.


    The half-meter-thick redser, shooting from the cannons, swept through the Skeleton Warriors like slicing tofu, raising the temperature of the entire Treasure Room by several degrees in an instant.


    Any Skeleton Warrior that was struck by thisser turned into greyish white mush, copsing softly onto the ground like a melting candle.


    The “Wind Clothes Technique,” a spell for deflecting bullets, was utterly ineffective againstsers!


    Laser weapons were exceptionally effective!


    With a sweep from theser weapons, the crowded Treasure Room immediately became more spacious, and the air filled with the burnt smell of bones.


    “Oh yeah~”


    “Woo-hoo~”


    The yers cheered and jumped for joy within the iron cage.


    “Don’t get too happy too soon! Aim theser turret at that boss! Fire another round!” the yer Commander called out calmly.


    “Roger!” The yer operating the mechanical arm aimed the turret at Nnd Lee.


    While waiting for the turret to recharge, other yers unloaded their firepower on Nnd Lee with Burst Guns to prevent him from damaging theser turret.


    Seeing the mini-boss sitting on the throne being suppressed by the firepower and unable to free himself, the yers’ joy gradually surged.


    When theser turret buzzed and shot out a redser beam, a few yers had even started to cheer and jump for joy.


    However, the scene that followed plunged them into an ice cave.


    The redser beam shot out and quickly reached in front of the mini-boss, only to be forcibly suspended by an invisible force, turning from a long strip into a glowing red spherical orb of light, hovering beside the mini-boss.


    “Gulp..”


    Sounds of swallowing saliva came from inside the iron cage.


    “This isn’t scientific!” a yer shouted in surprise, eximing like a duck:


    “Isn’t this supposed to be a one-time minor dungeon for the Death Artifact?! Howe there’s a boss that can controlsers?!”


    Another yer also cried out:


    “This boss looks like a skeleton, but why can it manipte energy like the Telekic Series? What kind of weird boss is this? Can we even beat it?”


    “It seems like a boss that’s proficient in both the Summoning Series and Telekic Series. If it has other skills, then we’re in trouble.”


    “Yes, it doesn’t matter if we die, but these NPCs definitely won’t make it out alive. If the NPCs die, our faction’s reputation will suffer, which really is bad luck.”


    The yers discussed among themselves.


    The Star Thieves cursed and urged the yers to quickly figure something out.


    As the yers said, they themselves were not afraid of death, as they could utilize the game mechanics to respawn indefinitely.


    But as NPCs in the eyes of the yers, the Star Thieves were one-time consumables; once dead, they were dead for good.


    Upon seeing the skeleton on the throne able to mold aser beam into a sphere, the Star Thieves felt a cold sweat break out, their voices filled with palpable terror.


    Now, whether the Star Thieves lived or died was in the hands of the yers.


    If the yers could escort the Star Thieves out, then perhaps these few Star Thieves might survive.


    This was clear not only to Nnd Lee, but also to the yer Commander.


    “Alright, everyone be quiet.”


    yer Commander said,


    “It’s impossible to lose reputation. We finally got the reputation of the Split Bear Star Thieves to the Friendly Stage, just a point away from reaching the Revered Stage, and then we’re supposed to buy a second-hand ship from them. How could we possibly lose reputation here?”


    The yer Commander paused,


    “Listen up, everyone. The information for this mini-dungeon is incorrect. Let’s first escort the NPC out, and next time we’lle back prepared to fight. Start the power device, we’ll take off and burst through the sted opening.”


    After the mechanical arm and theser turret retracted into thebat cabin, jets and heat waves emanated from the bottom of thebat cabin, causing it to rise steadily.


    The Burst Gun kept firing at the boss, covering the cabin as it withdrew.


    “Don’t you think this boss’s desire to attack isn’t strong?” a yer remarked,


    “It can turnsers into a light sphere, but it just holds it and doesn’t shoot theser ball at us. If it had thrown theser ball, we might not have been able to get away.”


    No sooner had the yer finished speaking than Nnd Lee felt a thrill, waved his hand, and threw theser ball above thebat cabin.


    “[Expletive]! You really have the mouth of a crow!” came a terrified shriek from inside the cage.


    “Boom!”


    Theser ball exploded above thebat cabin, and the swirling force caused thebat cabin to be unsteady, tilting to one side and nearly flipping over in mid-air.


    It seemed there was some device inside thebat cabin that prevented it from flipping over, as it managed to stop the flipping motion in time and slowly returned to a horizontal position.


    Nnd Lee wasn’t about to let this bunch of yers leave just like that. He casually snapped his fingers and caused a small-scale air explosion on the side of thebat cabin, using the force to flip the entire cabin over.


    “Boom, boom, boom—”


    Thebat cabin did a full 180-degree turn in the air.


    The tail mes that propelled the cabin upward now forced the cabin to m down toward the ground.


    People inside thebat cabin were thrown all over the ce, screaming in pain.


    “This boss is messing with us!”


    “It’s done for! We can’t flip the cabin back! We can’t get out!”


    “A bunch of idiots! Think of something fast!” This rude voice undoubtedly came from the mouth of a Star Thief.


    The yer Commander shouted,


    “Quiet! I think I’ve figured out this boss’s mechanism! Everyone stop, don’t fire!”


    The troops, hearing the words of themander, managed to control the pain from the fall, bore their difort, and calmed down.


    The yer Commander said,


    “You see. As long as we don’t undertake offensive actions, the boss won’t hit us.”


    That might not necessarily be true~


    Nnd Lee thought about hitting thebat cabin with another air explosion, to p the face of the yer Commander, but a second thought paused his action, and he decided to listen to the other party’s ideas.


    The yer Commander said,


    “Look at the information again. This Prayer Elite Monster is sitting on the Throne of the Death Artifact. We just need to lure it away to open the Door Inside, and then search for the Death Artifact behind the door. So, the key is how to lure it from the Throne, not to defeat it. Maybe, in the initial intent of designing this mini-dungeon, this boss is supposed to be unbeatable!”


    Seeing that the boss hadn’tunched an attack for a long time, the yers suddenly felt that the captain’s words were usible!


    “It really could be the case!”


    “So it’s a mechanism-type boss, no wonder it’s so powerful.”


    A so-called mechanism-type boss is one that can only be ovee by following specific rules rather than a straightforwardbat confrontation.


    There are many types of mechanism-based bosses, either requiring the correct answer to its questions, handing over the right items, or reciting the correct Spells.


    Either way, it means that using brute force to ovee a mechanism-type boss is unwise.


    The yers, exchanging thoughts and analyzing the mechanics of the mini-boss, eventually concluded:


    First, open the Cabin Door and try tomunicate with the boss.


    The yer Commander volunteered to take the risk of dying and losing Experience.


    Amid a hissing sound from an airlock, a man clothed in tattered Power Armor came out from the door inside.


    “Click, click, click…” Nnd Lee slightly turned his head to look at this yer Commander, his gaze emotionless and unfeeling.


    The Boss did not immediatelyunch an attack!


    The yers remaining inside the cabin let out a suppressed cheer, then quieted down.
