The current location is the basement of Fort Midhill Mechanical College in a narrow room. She just turned around and looked behind her. On the wall covered with disgusting black slime, there was no door for Shade to leave, so Dai
The flame that Sister Phryne set out was indeed important.
Even indoors are filled with fog. Unlike the fog in the real world, the former is just damp and cold, while the latter's chill cannot be stopped by clothing at all.
At the same time, the first few times I went deep into the narrow room, only my physical condition was affected. But this time I entered the narrow room, the unique mental impact of the relic finally appeared.
When I first stood there and talked to "her", I didn't feel any serious discomfort. But when I started to walk out, every time I took a step, I felt that strange dizziness as if I hadn't woken up.
It becomes more and more serious.
When Shad came to the basement steps, he had to rest against the wall. But fortunately, his divine afterglow state still protected him, plus the [Eternal Youth Leaf] and the simple amulet he made based on the knowledge of elves.
It helped, I rested for a few minutes and gradually got used to it.
Knowing that time was running out, Shade did not stay any longer and hurriedly left from the basement. Perhaps because all the windows in the corridor were broken, the thick fog on the first floor of the castle was even more exaggerated than in the basement.
The specious castle was not exactly the same as the real castle, so Shade did not waste time looking for the door. Instead, he left the castle through the window and came to the castle courtyard covered with weeds.
Because when he helped Mr. Copps collect plants last week, he learned a little bit about the plant populations that can grow in the narrow space, so Shade was able to identify a variety of rare plants including corpse plant, snake heart plant and dead soul flower.
plant.
The lushness of these plants also illustrates that the power of life and death in the narrow space has completely lost its balance.
From the location of Fort Midhill Mechanical College, the distance to the seal on the mountainside is actually closer than the natural church in the city center. But Shade believes that Joey Barton is more likely to appear at the foot of the mountain, so he still heads towards
Head into the city.
The further loss of control in the narrow room caused major changes in the internal space. When Shade was avoiding the undead, he discovered that the abnormal space even caused dangerous areas such as "circulating alleys" and ruptured spaces to appear inside the narrow room.
.
As he moved forward, he encountered a circular alley, which was a seemingly infinite length of alley. When walking in it, he could never reach the exit that seemed to be right in front of him.
Shade's keen perception allowed Shade to notice something was wrong in time. Fortunately, he also had the power of space. At "her" suggestion, he used [Night Watch] to draw a circle under his feet, then knelt on one knee on the ground, holding the sword in both hands.
The hilt is dug into the ground beneath your feet, and your forehead is pressed against the hilt of the sword:
"Space stabilizing halo!"
The clear sound of shattering glass appeared all around. Looking up again, the decaying alley in the white mist seemed to have not changed. But after just a few dozen steps forward, he left the scope of the alley:
"It is indeed an angel-level relic, but it is a pity"
After swinging the long sword a few times, it made a sound of breaking through the air. Shade solemnly inserted it into the scabbard, and then continued to walk into the ancient city shrouded in thick fog.
The narrow room suppresses the propagation of sound, so even if a steam bomb explodes in the distance, Shade will most likely not be able to hear it. However, the white fog only has a normal effect on hindering the propagation of light, so he can see what is happening nearby from a high place.
The first large-scale phenomenon that Shade encountered was a flock of crows flying overhead. At that time, he thought it was dark clouds appearing above his head, but when he looked up, he realized that they were densely packed black birds.
At that time, he was standing on the spire-like roof of the marble building on the side of the five-way intersection. This building was the Carsonrick Commercial Bank in the real world. He was holding on to the gargoyle statue and trying to find the next direction, when a swarm of crows
Fly here.
Shade hurriedly hid behind the huge gargoyle statue and squinted his eyes to see someone flying above the crows with them.
"High level warlock?"
The distance was too far to judge, but immediately, he knew why the other party was flying at high altitude. Because deeper in the thick fog, a huge black shadow quickly appeared, and finally broke through the fog layer and appeared above Sha De's head.
.
It was a huge skeleton with two wings on its back. The long tail behind it was covered with bone spurs, and red light danced in its eye sockets. When it appeared, there seemed to be a gravitational pull around the skeleton that could attract attention, and no sight could escape.
Its body. As an undead creature in the narrow room, this skull dragon has extremely terrifying pollution. Even Shade did not dare to look at it for too long.
"Oh, my little Mia, Bone Dragon!"
Compared with the bone dragon that Shade encountered in the Deadly Valley of the Fifth Age, this one is obviously smaller in size and has a weaker sense of oppression. But even so, this is also a genuine bone dragon, which is normal.
The most powerful undead creature that can be encountered in the modern era of the Sixth Age.
"I knew that there wouldn't be only evil spirits in the narrow space between life and death."
He tried his best to shrink his body, hoping that the crows and bone dragons above him would not notice him. But as if in response to Shade's thoughts, the terrifying undead flying above him raised his neck and swayed from side to side amidst a dull roar.
, and then spit out a deadly black breath forward.
The crows were unable to dodge, and like wheat harvested by a scythe, large tracts fell from the sky. And the man flying with the crows also fell to the ground, although he used something like "Feather Technique" at the last moment.
The spell slowed down the fall, but it looked like the damage was serious.
It was very unfortunate that the location where he landed happened to be at the five-way intersection below the roof of the building where Shade was.
Holding a big yellow-covered book in his hand, the man stood up with his hands on the ground and immediately called out the eleven life rings to get ready for battle, and the flying bone dragon also lowered its altitude.
It flapped its wings and glided at low altitude, lowering its head and spitting out black breath on the ground paved with long bricks. Even if Shade was far away from it, he could clearly feel that it contained the power of death, plague and curse.
How terrible the breath is.
The five-way intersection is very large, and the surrounding shops have been abandoned for a long time, making it easy to dodge left and right. However, the breath is drawn from left to right, so the unfamiliar high-level warlock can only resist on the spot.
He held the book in his hand high, opened one of the pages, and let the eggshell-like protective layer surround him, which was considered a complete attack.
"The thaumaturgy that looks very familiar, is it the Heaton Seal of the Church of the Sun? No, it looks more like the one from the Zalas Conjuration Academy. Oh!"
The bone dragon, which had already spit on the ground, raised its altitude again. While the black clouds and mist on the ground had not yet dispersed, it discovered Shade huddled behind the gargoyle at high altitude.
Boom!
His body rotated in the air, and the huge tail with sharp bone spurs swept towards him. The roof of the building was only so large, and Shade couldn't dodge at all. He could only jump into the air suddenly. And behind him, the marble building
The spire-like roof has been completely destroyed.
Adjusting his posture in the air, he held the sword with both hands and subconsciously wanted to use [solar ray], or "solar cannon", to hit the bone dragon's head. But then he realized that there would be a lot of battles ahead.
He must not waste too much spirit here.
"Raglai's Leap."
The huge head of the bone dragon opened its mouth and bit at Shade, but Shade had disappeared into the air and appeared against the wall of the building on the southeast side of the street. He kicked his feet violently and jumped out with the help of the power of the spell, hiding.
After another flick of the bone dragon, while jumping in the air, the chain in the sleeve shot out and wrapped around the flagpole of the protruding window of the building on the southwest side.
With a sudden swing of the chain, the whole person circled half a circle above the five-way intersection, and then rolled around on the ground to relieve the force, got up and stepped steadily on the ground.
The breath of the bone dragon on the ground has gradually dissipated, and the eleventh-ring warlock suspected of being Professor Zalath is indeed still alive, but he fell to the ground and was trying to struggle to get up. He looked seriously injured.
Shade ran a few steps and pounced on him, and then the two of them rolled on the ground a few times, avoiding the claws of the swooping bone dragon. The claws left two deep traces on the already broken ground.
Deep scratches.
"Sir, are you okay?"
He seemed to be poisoned. Shade supported him and tried to hide in a building on the street. At the same time, he searched for branches in his pocket to detoxify him. Looking closely, the book held by the eleven-ring warlock actually had something on it.
The school emblem of the Zalas Conjuring Academy.
If his power had not been suppressed in the narrow room, even if the professor lost, he would not have lost so miserably. Shade remembered that in the Valley of Death, the thirteenth-level witch Miss Olan Nord only used one move, "Moon".
"Guang Da Sword" defeated an opponent more ferocious than the skull dragon above him. Even if the contemporary ring warlock system is not as good as the witch system, the eleven rings are not unqualified to fight the bone dragon.
"It's okay. This thing appeared too suddenly. I'm not good at dealing with flying things."
The brown-haired middle-aged professor vomited blood and said.
The two had already hid in a building that looked like a haunted house next to the intersection. The Bone Dragon, which had raised its height again, did not notice them for the time being, but did not leave either. Instead, it wandered in the thick fog above the intersection.
"Where did this come from?"
Shade asked curiously while detoxifying, but the bone dragon's toxin was not something he could deal with. After thinking for a while, he found the answer from the elf knowledge. Then he found a fresh green leaf from his pocket and used
After writing the elven runes representing [health] and [strength] on it with a pen, use leaves and branches together as casting materials to detoxify.
Doing this is equivalent to performing a "powerful detoxification technique". Although it consumes a little more, the effect is very obvious.
"Thank you. I am Raven Oglai, the dragon who flew down from Mount Sikal with me. The Chosen One summoned him, and that terrible dwarf went crazy. He was trying to fuse the level 0 relics. Although
The human soul has its limits, but it can indeed control a few powerful undead individuals at one time. This dragon originally slept deep in the Sikal Mountains. According to records, it was killed by a witch in the early fifth era."
The professor looked at the young man wearing a mask and said, not hiding these things. Shade frowned slightly:
"Joy Barton is on the mountain?"
The green light in his hands is expelling toxins, and the professor's face looks much better:
"Although I don't know who you are, you are indeed for the chosen one. Yes, the church has seen him on the mountain, and his goal seems to be the top of the mountain."
"I guessed wrong?"
Xia De was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he felt that things might not be that simple.
"However, the witches also sent a message, and Joey Barton also appeared near the mountainside."
The professor added, and Shade nodded, knowing that he could not draw a conclusion yet:
"Professor, is it okay to tell this stranger these things?"
The middle-aged professor, leaning against the dirty wall, smiled:
"Even if I tell you, what can I do? There is a mess in the narrow room now. If you are willing to go up the mountain to stop Joey Barton, wouldn't that be great? Besides, you saved me, I should repay you
you."
"Well, is there any way to deal with the dragon outside? If it doesn't leave, we won't even be able to leave."
Shade said, and then added:
"My level is not high and I can't beat the opponent."
"Answer me a question first. You pretend to have an accent as if you have something in your mouth. You appear alone in a dangerous place. You wear a black coat and have a normal figure. Are you the 'God Caller'?"
"The question is moot now."
"Yes."
After the powerful detoxification technique ended, Zarath's professor wanted to stand up, but held his forehead, as if feeling dizzy:
"I have a Keeper-level relic on me that can deal with it, but it requires preparation time, so I didn't use it just now. You take it and defeat the bone dragon. As a reward, the relic is yours, but you need
Swear to the god you believe in and help me deliver a letter to the natural church in the narrow room."
Shade thought for a moment:
"I'm glad you can trust me. The relic is my reward for saving you, and the reward for delivering the letter is that I have to open the letter and check the contents."
The professor hesitated for a moment:
"Can."
He opened his big book, which seemed to have hundreds of pages, and stopped slightly at the back. The page on the left was written with dense small words, and the page on the right was written with extremely fine brushstrokes.
Depicting a white spar with a dragon inside.
He placed his hand on top of the page on the right, then grabbed it suddenly, and actually "grabbed" the white crystal stone out of the page. At the same time, the small words on the left page and the pictures on the right page all disappeared.
This professor from the Eleventh Ring used unknown means to seal the relics in a book:
"This is yours. The Keeper-level relic [Higgs Dragon Head Stone]. It can only be used when slaying a dragon. The opponent must not only have the attribute of 'dragon', but also must be at least ten times the size of the user, otherwise the characteristic cannot be triggered.
. Hold this stone in your hand, remain still, and look at the target for more than ten seconds, and you can use the dragon's breath once."
He paused:
"Yes, it's what you think, and it consumes very little of itself. The breath is only effective on dragons, and only has a frightening effect on non-dragon targets. The negative feature is that there is a certain probability that after using the stone, the stone will be irreversibly transformed.
It will turn into a crazy dragon-headed man, but the probability of this is very low. The containment conditions are simple, just put it in pure table salt."
The surface of the white crystal in your hand is very rough, and you may even feel pain when you hold it tightly. And if you look closely at the turbid interior of the crystal, except for the lifelike white-haired head that seems to have been shrunk and sealed into the crystal.
Long, he could actually observe a line of small characters. It was not any text that Shade had come into contact with, and it didn't even look like the text used by human civilization:
【If you were a dragon, that would be great.】
"Are you sure that the dragon's breath used by humans can defeat the bone dragon? This is only a Keeper-level relic?"
Shade asked again.
"This relic is specially designed to restrain dragons, especially hybrid dragons, undead dragons and other impure dragons. Moreover, even the lowest level relic can defeat the highest level relic if it finds a suitable application scenario. But I must remind you
You, the properties of the dragon's breath you exhale are related to your own strength. If you are good at fire, poison, thunder and lightning, etc., your throat may become hoarse and your lungs may be severely damaged after using the relic."
This relic really makes sense.
"It doesn't matter, I have healing abilities."
"Now, you can also become a dragon-slaying warrior."
The professor said jokingly, and opened the book again to look for medicine to treat himself. Not only was he poisoned, but he also had other injuries. The battle on Sikal Mountain was more intense than in the city.
Shade shook his head:
"What kind of dragon-slaying warrior am I? I heard that the balanced chosen one really killed a pure-blood dragon."
"I've heard about it too. But the other party is the protagonist of the era, the destined hero, the person destined to write the epic. How can we compare with her?"
Holding the dragon head stone in his hand, Shade left the building and came to the five-way intersection again. He looked up at the white fog above his head and caught the roving bone dragon in the fog:
"ten."
The dragon did not notice Shade immediately, and was still circling overhead.
"Nine."
It still didn't find Shade, but Shade could already feel the stone in his hand heating up, and his lungs felt a little hot.
"eight."
The dragon's flying movements became slower, and it took three seconds for it to finally find Shade.
"seven."
As if confirming the target and accumulating strength, the Bone Dragon did not pounce down immediately, but roared in the thick fog. The sound was extremely dull because it was suppressed by the narrow space. Shade immediately felt the mental oppression.
Feeling, primitive panic appeared in his heart. This is the innate ability of dragons, of course, it has no effect on him.
"six."
The dragon swooped down, and Shade felt the pain in his lungs as if it was on fire.
"five."
The bone dragon flies extremely fast, falling like a falling meteorite. If it were hit head-on, even with Shade's current physical strength, I'm afraid it would be so broken that even Mia wouldn't be able to recognize it.
"Four."
The dragon was almost in front of him. The wind pressure and mental pollution falling from the sky made Shade subconsciously want to avoid it. But he suppressed this impulse, then kissed the moonstone ring on his left hand and pointed it upward:
"confusion!"
"three."
The bright yellow moonlight shines into the sky, and the power of chaos affects the Bone Dragon's judgment as Joey Barton's summons. Its descent speed has obviously slowed down, but because the Bone Dragon itself is too powerful, the thaumaturgy [Confusion]
The strength did not make him switch sides to Shade.
"two."
Shade retracted his left hand and stared at the dragon suspended in mid-air. He felt that his chest was swelling, and the imminent vomiting made his entire upper body extremely uncomfortable. The [Higgs Dragon Head Stone] held in his left hand was whispering
The element gives Shade power. This is a very dangerous behavior. If he is not careful, he will fall into madness and truly transform into a dragon.
"one."
The bone dragon shook its tail in the air, its scarlet skull eyes looking at Shade below.
Shade closed his mouth tightly and took a deep breath. From his eyes, nostrils, ears, and even the gaps between his lips, bright silver light shot out uncontrollably:
"Roar!"
The sound appeared first, and then the shock wave caused by the sound wave swept across the entire block. In Shade's mouth opened to the sky, the bright silver moon beam shot straight into the sky like a light cannon. It hit the bone dragon head-on like a devastating blow,
Let it disappear completely in the light, and then Silver Moon's dragon roar broke through the white fog in the sky, leaving a huge hole in the thick fog.
The silver traces of light in the sky lingered for a long time, as if the light left traces in the sky forever. While the broken bone fragments fell to the ground silently, Shade leaned down and held down the ground, coughing in pain.
:
"Ahem! Ahem, oh, I feel like my whole lungs are burning up. Shouldn't the power of moonlight be completely harmless to the human body?"
【After all, you are a human, not a dragon.】
"She" was chuckling, seemingly satisfied with the result.
"If this [Dragon Head Stone] can be used on any target, it will at least have a sage-level rating."
He took out a water bottle from his pocket and drank two sips of water treated with [Saturation Food]. The cold feeling finally made his lungs feel better.
Turning around and returning to the building, Professor Ogle of Zaras was still preparing potions to heal himself. The injury he suffered was not a simple trauma, so Shade could not help.
"You are indeed the God Summoner. Although you are deliberately suppressing your power, that silver moonlight is absolutely unmistakable."
Seeing Sha De coming back, the professor raised his head and said. Sha De shook his head:
"Give me the letter. I want to go to the Natural Church as soon as possible."
"That's where your goal is?"
"Just because there is no answer, I can only trust my own guess."
"This is the letter. I actually suggest that you cooperate with the church to deal with Joey Barton. As long as you show sincerity, the church will be happy to have a thirteen-ring helper."
Shade shook his head, turned around and wanted to leave, but hesitated for a moment and asked again:
"Excuse me, do you know where the principal of St. Byrons, the 'Silver Watcher' Professor Andre Pigman, is now?"
Professor Ogle picked up the conical glass bottle and asked softly:
"Then please answer my question, God Caller, will you call the gods this time?"
"I don't have an answer either."
The professor nodded:
"Then I understand. Professor Pigman has not entered the narrow chamber yet, he is in Fort Midhill in reality."
"None of the three thirteen-ring warlocks from the church and the thirteen-ring magicians from the academy came to Hazama's city?"
This is unreasonable no matter how you think about it.
"Once the Scar of the Holy Tree ritual is successful, as long as the narrow space does not collapse at that time, it will be able to postpone the problem of Fort Midhill for at least three years, so enough high-level warlocks are needed at the core of the ritual on the mountain. Moreover, naturally
The seal of the church is the most secure seal in theory. The Natural Church has occupied this place for thousands of years and has been operating the narrow room since the beginning of this century. Do they really have no additional means at all?"
As he said that, he raised his head and drank the purple potion in his hand. Judging from his expression, it tasted very bad. But then, the professor frowned and threw the thumb-sized glass bottle into the potion.
In his mouth, he chewed loudly, his expression extremely ferocious:
"In the potion bottle I used during the war, I added a potion catalyst ingredient to make the potion drink more effective. Oh, this is not glass, it just sounds like glass. I am vomiting blood, no
Got scratched by a bottle."
He smiled at Shade with his mouth full of blood, and waved his hand to Shade and hit the other bottle:
"Do you want to try it? This is my unique invention. Although not many people are willing to use it, it is definitely very useful. The college has accepted my patent application and it has reached the final approval process. I plan to study a few more flavors."
Shade turned and ran, hoping that this "unique invention" would never become popular.
