He forced himself to calm down and carefully recalled the previous magic circle.
Everything happened so fast that he had no time to make any rescue efforts and just watched them disappear.
However, by recalling the details at that time, Roy discovered that this magic pattern array did not seem to be a killing array. Among those elemental arrays, he did not see any attack structure. After being wrapped in red bubbles, the mercenaries
There were no obvious injuries to his body.
Roy was very sure of this.
You know, once you are attacked and injured, the human body will emit a large amount of blood elements. On a fierce battlefield, this phenomenon is called blood element eruption. Dense blood elements can even form a dense cloud of blood elements. And this,
It is the beloved of the necromancer who uses the blood element to fight.
Blood and death allow them to summon more undead creatures with less magic power. The more people die, the stronger the necromancer becomes, which is why people are so afraid of necromancers.
And Roy had carefully observed the garden with the Eye of Elements. Not to mention the explosive eruption of blood elements, not even the dispersion of blood elements in low-intensity battles. Although this did not mean that the mercenaries were still alive, Roy
Yi felt that their chance of survival was at least fifty percent.
The greater possibility is that they were captured and imprisoned somewhere!
Of course, Roy also understood that the situation of these people would not be much better even if they were alive. This is the palace of Noiotans after all. This terrifying existence that rules the entire World of Warcraft will never be a soft-hearted person.
Not to mention being so boring as to capture people and feed them with good food and drink.
Capturing is only the first step. And the magic pattern formation on the gate is only a small part of the entire ruins protection formation.
Next
Roy's heart tightened.
He lowered his head and looked at the phalanges in his hand. Although he was not sure why the magic circle spared him alone, he judged that it had something to do with the phalanges and dragon skin.
The finger bones are the remains of Noiotans, and the dragon skin is a treasure map that only he could draw. It is not surprising that these two things are recognized by the ruins guardian formation. And if this judgment is correct, it means
Now, I may be the only hope for these hundreds of mercenaries.
Roy gritted his teeth, took a few steps up the steps, stretched out his hand and pushed towards the palace door.
The palm of his hand touched the cold door. Unlike the bearded mercenary before, this time, there was nothing abnormal about the door. As Roy pressed his palm harder, he heard a teeth-searing sound.
The gates like gates slowly opened to both sides.
A straight corridor appeared in Roy's eyes.
This is a glittering corridor. The walls on both sides are made of gold bricks. The walls are painted with murals and reliefs. And these artistic masterpieces that have existed for countless years are actually made of gold bricks.
It was inlaid with all kinds of treasures that Roy could imagine.
For example, the eyes of one of the birds are pure sapphires without any impurities. The feathers are mithril. The tail feathers are the flame feathers of a real eighth-level Warcraft seven-color sparrow. If you pry all these things off, their value will be
, enough to arm ten elite knights.
Compared with the reliefs along the entire passage, this little bird is just the smallest and most inconspicuous presence among them.
Standing at the door, Roy opened his mouth wide enough to swallow a big duck egg.
Although he had already guessed that there must be crazy treasures hidden in the ruins of Neuotans, he never imagined that this wealth would be so amazing.
The corridor is like this, inside...
"Boy, you're rich!" Following the noise of the ax spirit, the figures of the four weapon spirits appeared next to Roy.
Although for the four weapon spirits, money may be the last thing they care about. However, they all understand what a huge wealth means to Roy, and they are sincerely happy for him.
Wealth is a kind of power. It is also the most terrifying and irresistible force in this world of the jungle. It can turn husband and wife against each other, make father and son become enemies, and turn a kind person into a devil. It can also turn a kind person into a devil.
A devil becomes an angel.
This kind of power cannot even be compared to fighting spirit and magic.
Its power directly points to people's hearts.
The weapon spirits don't know how much wealth is hidden in the ruins, but they know that just by converting all the things in this corridor into money, plus the ransom that Roy got from Scarlett and others, his wealth will be
It will reach an astonishing number, even more than some old nobles have accumulated over several generations.
In this troubled world, such a fortune is undoubtedly a huge help to Roy.
"Get rich." Roy smiled bitterly and diverted his attention from the huge wealth. Now that time is running out, he has no time to think about the idea of taking these gold bricks and sculptures. When he quickly takes over this place, I'm afraid there will be hundreds of mercenaries.
Not a single one of them was left alive long ago.
Walking into the corridor, as soon as Roy took a step, he realized something was wrong.
The dragon skin on his chest suddenly sent out a strong wave of consciousness, warning him of danger. At the same time, the floor tiles he stepped on suddenly lit up, and several holes suddenly appeared in the walls on both sides. At seven or eight o'clock,
Black light shot toward him.
"Be careful!" the weapon spirits exclaimed in unison.
Fortunately, with the warning from the mysterious consciousness and Roy's extremely quick reaction, he was able to protect his body with the Shield of Judgment before the black light hit him.
Bang bang bang!
Loud noises exploded on the shield one after another. Roy felt as if he was hit by a roaring meteor. His body flew out and flew for more than ten meters before falling heavily to the ground.
"call!"
It took two minutes for Roy to regain his composure, take a long breath, and get up from the ground with difficulty. For a moment, he felt unbearable pain all over his body, and the right arm holding the shield seemed to be broken.
"What a terrifying hidden weapon."
Roy walked back to the place where he was attacked, and then he realized that the black light that attacked him was actually a few short arrows shot from the mechanism on the corridor wall.
Roy swallowed, feeling shocked and scared.
Crossbow arrows hidden in the wall are a common mechanism. Roy has seen many of them in the dwarf's mechanism city. He even personally wound the strings for several sets of crossbow arrows in the city gate. He replaced the arrows and arranged the trigger mechanism.
There is also some research on its construction principles.
However, he has never seen a wall-hidden crossbow with such terrifying power. With his current strength, he was knocked upside down. If he hadn't held the Shield of Judgment instead of an ordinary stainless steel shield, he would have been afraid.
He and his shield had already been shot through!
Compared with this terrifying arrow, the dwarf's wall-hiding crossbow and even the large armor-piercing crossbow used in war are like children's toys.
Shocked by the horror of the ruins mechanism, Roy lowered his head and focused on his chest.
When he first got this Dragon Taboo, Roy didn't know that there was a consciousness hidden in it. He even washed away the original treasure map on it. He also drew the Demon-Gathering Star and integrated it into his body. He was completely unaware of the whole process.
Any abnormalities appear.
It wasn't until he first saw the appearance of the ruins peak in the stone forest not long ago that he discovered the existence of this consciousness.
At that time, Roy didn't care much.
As a necromancer, Roy's understanding of souls is much deeper than that of ordinary people. He knows that in the world of necromancers, the obsession of a dead creature's soul with its living soul is a very special thing.
Normal and very common thing.
Not only the body, but also the mirror, room, harp, and even the weapon used to kill the deceased may become the carrier of ghosts. This phenomenon has even evolved into horror stories circulated among ordinary people.
Therefore, if a proud dragon was killed and then had its heart skin cut off and made into a map, then it would be normal for it to leave its own resentment and anger on it. And this kind of
The remnant of obsession is a ray of instinctive consciousness. When it encounters something familiar or something that touches one's nature, it will generate fluctuations.
But later, as he got closer to the ruins, Roy found that this consciousness was getting stronger and stronger. It was even so strong that it affected his own mind.
At that time, Roy already felt that something was wrong. But because of the tight time, he had no time to stop and study. Until this time, at the moment of the attack, the consciousness hidden in the dragon skin actually became active and clear.
way of warning him.
This made Roy certain that what was hidden in him was not just a ray of consciousness, but a complete soul.
"Who are you?"
Roy mobilized his mental power and spread his perception into his chest.
Looking inside, the heart is beating vigorously.
Muscles, blood vessels, bones and the source of force flowing through the meridians are all clearly visible.
On the left chest, the dragon skin with the life magic pattern of the Demon-Gathering Star has been fused with its own flesh and blood, and now only a faint trace like a birthmark can be seen. The Demon-Gathering Star on it is following
The heart is beating and running, constantly absorbing the spiritual power of heaven and earth.
Perceiving entering the Dragon's Taboo is like entering a huge bloody world.
The Dragon's Taboo is the only area of the dragon's heart that is not covered by dragon scales. This is the key point for such powerful creatures, but it is also the key to their power. In their long lives, every beat of the dragon's heart will pass through here.
Absorb the power of heaven and earth.
It can be said that this skin contains the essence of the dragon's life's hard work.
Roy didn't know how many years this dragon taboo had been circulated and what kind of dragon it came from. But he could still clearly feel the almost terrifying energy and pressure in it. And this surging energy and blood had an impact on him.
The Magic Star Pattern of Judgment is a great help.
The steady influx of spiritual power from heaven and earth made Roy feel like a giant dragon that had been growing by relying on his bloodline since birth.
However, no one answered his question.
That mysterious consciousness disappeared silently. No matter how Roy searched or called, there was no response. It seemed that everything just now was just Roy's illusion and it had never appeared.
Although he was a little reluctant, Roy gave up decisively.
Firstly, there must be a reason why the other party doesn't want to show up. Secondly, I really don't have much time.
After just such a delay, Roy could already see the overwhelming clouds in the distance like a gray sea tide. Countless abyss demons and abyss beasts were running towards this side. Even though they were still far away, they could already clearly feel the earth.
was shocked.
Roy walked to the corridor.
This time, knowing the existence of the trap, he became more careful.
After carefully observing the ground and walls, Roy discovered that this was a password-type mechanism. Only one floor tile in each row on the ground was safe. These floor tiles formed a password, and any wrong step would trigger an attack. If
If you crack it step by step, it will take at least two to three prayer hours.
But... Roy's mouth raised a smile. He knew that there was a violent way to break this kind of trap. That was to use human life to pile it up.
I don’t have that many people, but I am a necromancer.
Soon, dozens of skeletons were summoned by Roy and lined up into the corridor.
Puff puff puff. In a series of rapid crossbow sounds, the skeleton soldiers fell one after another. In just one meter, twenty skeletons were shot to pieces by the dense crossbow arrows hidden in the wall.
Behind the crossbow hidden in the wall was acid splash.
A large amount of corrosive acid was sprayed from all directions in the corridor. The skeleton soldiers walking in it were like ice men walking into a fire, constantly melting and falling down.
All sixty skeleton soldiers were lost after advancing less than five meters.
Fortunately, these first-level skeleton soldiers used as cannon fodder do not require much combat power, let alone permanent summoning. With Roy's current strength, he can summon them continuously. The speed of magic consumption is not even as fast as gathering magic.
Star's spiritual energy replenishment speed.
As Roy's magic was released, groups of skeleton soldiers appeared from the bright light and rushed into the corridor.
The skeletons in front fell under the attack of the trap, and the skeletons in the back have been replaced, one after another. After paying the price of more than two hundred first-level skeleton soldiers, the trap in the corridor was finally consumed.
It has to be clean.
After driving the skeleton soldiers back and forth several times. After making sure nothing was missed, Roy walked into the corridor.
Although there were many traps in the corridor, Roy was surprised to find that such a fierce attack did not cause any damage to the mural reliefs on the wall.
As he walked, Roy looked at the contents of the murals and reliefs on both sides.
The giants were the former rulers of the continent of Avalon. Their rule lasted for tens of thousands of years.
For some reason, there are very few records of that period of history in today's history books. In addition to knowing that there is a race of giants and that a war broke out, people do not know much about the history and civilization of giants, as well as the process and details of that war.
, they all know very little.
In this corridor, all this was recorded with murals. Walking along, Roy felt as if he had walked into a time and space tunnel that led to thousands of years ago.
Here, Roy saw the three legendary giant wars. He saw the sixteen dynasties when the giants ruled the continent of Avalon, saw the huge and majestic cities, and saw the extremely important positions in history.
The Emperors and Titans of Saints.
Roy discovered that, unlike the violent, ferocious, and almost primitive race described by humans, the giants were highly civilized. Before elves and humans dominated the continent, they had already established a brilliant civilization, both in culture and art.
Both economically and militarily, there have been extremely high achievements.
They studied astronomy and geography, architecture, casting, medicine and even magic. Many of their achievements even directly affected future generations. Whether it was the era of elves or humans, they all left their shadow.
At the end of the corridor, Roy's eyes were attracted by the last painting.
The painting depicts the scene of giants migrating as a family and stepping into the cracks in the void. The sky is black, and dozens of giant titans, led by a leader, break through the space. Countless giants carry their old and young, along the earth.
At the junction with the sky, enter the crack.
The migration team was very long. Giant warriors walked on both sides of the team, guarding their tribesmen. They wore blood-stained iron armor and held spears that were ten meters long. Some were looking back, and some were half-kneeling.
On the ground, shedding tears, seemed to be praying for something.
The picture was depressing, tragic and solemn. Roy seemed to be able to hear the elegy belonging to the giant, floating in the wind blowing the flag, lingering in his ears.
This tragic picture made Roy stop in his tracks.
Suddenly, his gaze suddenly focused. In the gap in time and space, above the winding migration team, he actually saw a pair of eyes!
It was a pair of eyes that Roy had never seen before.
Different from the giants in the picture, different from humans, even different from elves, dwarves, warcraft and even demons and other known races and creatures in Avalon continent.
These eyes are hexagonal in shape, and the pupils occupy two-thirds of the eye sockets. Moreover, three pupils of different colors overlap together, which makes several different eye colors appear in the eyes. It looks like two
The shaken kaleidoscope is colorful.
However, in such eyes, what Roy felt was not beauty, but evil.
An evil that will make anyone shudder even if he takes one more look at it.
Compared with the walking giant, these eyes were very small. Compared with the lightning-like space gap, they were as small as two grains of sand. However, Roy was sure that he was not wrong. Neuotans used
These eyes are inlaid with precious materials.
It's right there. It's like a villain peeking through the gap in the cracked curtain. His eyes are full of greed and malice!
Roy even had a feeling that these eyes were the key to all the reliefs and strokes in this long corridor. It seemed that the legend and history of the giant would end with these eyes in the end.
Then, Roy saw the last paragraph of text on the mural. Among all the giant texts, only this paragraph was written in the common language of the mainland.
The text is only one sentence.
"God is with us and will be with you."
Roy looked at this sentence quietly.
In the continent of Avalon, "God is with you" is a very familiar and common saying. It is so common that it is almost a greeting routine, and people will not even think about the meaning of the words.
But when this sentence did not appear in the church, nor in the greetings of believers, but was deliberately separated from you and me, and then appeared next to these eyes, Roy felt an indescribable weirdness.
.
It seems that this is not a blessing, but a curse... (To be continued)
