through the dark road

Chapter 159 Dual Wielding
In the northern part of the gravel wasteland, the terrain is constantly rising, which means that this desert is farther away from the underground water storage layer, making it impossible to find any water source on the entire plateau sand sea.

This is the dry highland, one of the most desolate areas in the Aranoch Desert, but there are many ancient underground ruins strangely.

In the yellow sand all over the sky, three figures were running fast.

It has been half a month since I left Lugaoin City, and finally entered the range of the dry highlands.Along the way, the three killed a large number of monsters, and their level finally rose to level 22.

Every time he went deep into this desert, the boundless vastness made Mo Bei a little weak, feeling like they were like three grains of sand in the vast sand sea.

Coupled with this windy and sandy weather, even if you let go of the speed with the halo of vitality, it seems to be standing still.After running for several hours, the scene around me has not changed much.

In a convoy extremely far away from here, Akali, holding a sword and shield and with fiery red hair gently swaying with her steps, also felt this way.

Walking forward in the dark before, this feeling of infinity and infinity was not so strong.But during this time the sun returned to normal, and her eyes felt the vastness of the desert intuitively.

Alvin moved closer to Akali and Ned, and said in an envious tone:

"That Mario is so strong! One claw smashed the death beetle's carapace..."

"That was a crushing blow, and it should be a critical blow, but the attack power is indeed very high." Akali nodded.

"Why don't you use that hammer?" Alvin asked.

"The attack power is a bit low, and the battery life is not enough."

What Akali is holding now is a gold-ranked long sword, dropped by Andariel.

This top-quality long sword is inlaid with a complete skeleton, which greatly improves its endurance, and it is no problem to deal with long-term high-intensity battles.

"Your posture with a sword is very similar to that of Mo Bei." Ned suddenly said.

"He... is very skilled in swordsmanship." Akali found a reason for imitating someone's attack style without knowing it, but she was still a little embarrassed.

"Why do you feel that you haven't moved from yesterday to now? My crow can't see any changes in the terrain ahead. When will it arrive..."

"It should be soon. According to what Brett said, in half a month, we should be able to enter the gravel wasteland." Ned also exhaled lightly after finishing speaking.

"It's still half a month... and it's not going to enter Lu Gaoyin..." Alvin paused.

"Cheer up! Pay attention to scouting. The monsters in this area are very strong." Akali patted Alvin with her shield.

"Oh..." Alvin replied weakly, took the three dogs back to his place, and took out a strangely shaped sawtooth scythe and put it on his shoulder.

This scythe is also produced by Andariel, which is very suitable for shapeshifting druids. It can tear open wounds and add the rabies virus damage of werewolves. Although the attack effect is not as straightforward as the crushing blow, the overall damage is not much inferior to Mario.

It's just that the durability has bottomed out, which makes Alvin a little anxious.

"You three need to work harder..." Alvin said sadly to the three dogs following him.

The three big white dogs glanced at him, then lowered their heads again, still looking lazy.

"It's really someone recruiting such a dog..." Ned couldn't help rolling his eyes when he saw this scene.

. . . .

dry highlands.

The three of Mo Bei saw some exposed boulders in the sand dunes, and knew that they were finally approaching the first destination of the trip, the Dry Highland Teleportation Station.

The wind and sand had calmed down, and the three of them climbed onto a boulder and looked into the distance, and they saw a flickering shadow on the horizon that was illuminated by the strong sunlight.

A group of death beetles in the distance also spotted their figures and crawled towards them aggressively.

Ordinary death beetles, because of their huge torso and thick carapace, make their thorny limbs that are also as thick as adult arms look a bit overwhelmed.Crawling is not much faster than ordinary people running.

But the group of beetles in front of them seemed to be stepping on a halo of vitality, and their speed was comparable to those of the sand jumpers.

The three of them saw at a glance that one of the carapaces looked a bit like a beetle with mottled rusty iron, and judged that it was a particularly fast elite.Compensating for the weakness of the death beetle, such a group of monsters will become very difficult to deal with.

With a piercing freezing arrow, Miloer shot towards the gap between the elytra and the front breast carapace of the elite death beetle. Unexpectedly, the beetle's reaction was also extremely fast. The arrow hit the slope of the hard shell, deflected by the shield, and bounced into the air.However, several arcs erupted from the body of the elite death beetle, crackling.

Mo Bei was speechless for a while. This attack should have caused no actual damage, but it could still trigger a lightning-enhanced charging bomb.

Blazing flames ignited from the ground, and the rest of the beetles were afraid, but the elite was unafraid. A burst of electric arcs rushed through the wall of fire, but the carapace seemed to be safe and sound.Even the two whiskers on the top of his head trembled triumphantly.

"I'll go... so arrogant, it won't work with flames!" Mo Bei felt a little itchy, and jumped off the boulder directly, trying to make two moves with this seemingly invulnerable death beetle elite.

At this time, the other beetles were far away from the elite, and they were still under Perona's indiscriminate bombardment.

Mo Bei launched a charge, passing by the right side of the elite death beetle, and slashed at the joint of a joint with his sword. pierced through the gap.

The beetle let out a "squeak" scream, and shrank its head covered with a thick carapace. Mo Bei felt that the blade of the sword seemed to be fixed by a clamp on a steel lathe, and he couldn't pull it back for a while.

The shield roared out, and the edge hit the fist-sized compound eye hard, smashing it to the point of denting and cracking, and the black liquid splashed out.

The elite beetle trembled violently after being hit hard.Mo Bei felt the blade loosen, twisted it in his body, and then pulled it out with transparent mucus.

However, the shield in his left hand was firmly hugged by the three jointed limbs of the elite beetle at this moment. This was the most depressing situation for Mo Bei. Even with his 80 points of strength, he couldn't compete with the elite death beetle.

The shield seemed to be welded with a steel pipe as thick as an arm. After pulling it with all its strength, the last pair of limbs of the beetle was stuck in the sand, and the shield remained motionless.Xin Dao's attack method is simply rogue.

"Behind!"

Mo Bei heard Miloer's reminder.

At the moment when the two sides wrestled, another death beetle broke through the blockade of the flames and charged at Milor with the arrow.

It was only then that Mo Bei could see clearly that there were inconspicuous fine lines on the carapace of this death beetle, which looked like dark black Damascus steel.

Mistake, there are two elites!

Being torn apart by two elite death beetles, even with the resistance aura turned on, the armor would definitely be completely destroyed.

Mo Bei made a decisive decision and let go of the shield.The Sword of Great Battle that was just drawn split open a jointed limb with fine barbs to prevent the body from being hooked.With his left hand, he subconsciously pulled out Griswald's Sharpness from the inventory, and slashed across the head of the dark-black elite beetle with his sword, knocking it back a few steps.

Actually repelled!
Mo Bei was excited. Just now he felt that even if the dark gold light shield was replaced, it might not have much defensive effect. These rogue beetles didn't attack seriously at all, they just grabbed the shield and rushed up to tear it up.

So he had a flash of inspiration, drew out another weapon, focused his consciousness on his left hand, and actually exerted the repelling effect of the Dark Gold Broadsword.

Except for barbarians and assassins, other professions hold two weapons at the same time, and the attributes of one of the weapons will not be recognized by the law, just like holding a piece of ordinary iron. Even though it can chop melons and vegetables, it has no threat to monsters.

Mo Bei's usual habit is to have a sword in his right hand and a shield in his left hand.But some people like the sword in the left hand and the shield in the right.This is reflected on the panel without any difference, it is just a matter of personal habits and combat performance.

But if he holds two weapons at the same time, he can only use the damage and attribute bonuses of the weapon held by his habitual main hand.

He used the transfer of consciousness before, which is equivalent to turning his left hand into the main hand, and he cut off the other elite beetle with a single sword.

This unexpected attempt made him happy, and he had a further idea.

In this way, can both hands take turns to attack?

Although it is not a real dual wielding, it also consumes a lot of mental power, just like switching halos quickly.But at any rate, I saw the hope of dual-wielding combat.
