Chapter 810: Return
Strength is respected.
The group had been arranged by Boseman before, but now they all looked at Merlin, waiting for her to give her orders.
Merlin doesn't want to pay attention to these things, but sometimes if you don't, others will be upset.
After thinking for a while, Merlin instructed the group to pack up Rodman's relics and walk in the direction of the lake...... I don't know if it was because of the force of the group, or because Mei Lin and the others helped them, those crypt gnomes didn't come to make trouble, which made the group a lot easier, and they came to the shore of the mysterious lake without any danger.
They found a hidden tree hole at the edge of the jungle and set it up to discuss their next plan of action.
The first is how to cross the lake.
They had just looked at the lake, and it was obvious that the method of using the magic carpet to cross the lake would not work, because there was an obvious forbidden air barrier on the lake, and not only were flying witchcraft difficult to use, but even flying creatures could not cross the lake...... They had already noticed these details when they were observing the situation at the lake.
Boseman sighed: "I do not advocate crossing the lake from the surface of the lake unless absolutely necessary. ”
Mei Lin shook her head, if she doesn't cross from the lake, won't she be able to wait for the lake to dry up?
However, the lake looked weird, and I didn't know if there were any creatures in it, so she really crossed the lake, and Merlin's heart was also drumming.
"Maybe we can take a look in other directions and maybe we'll be inspired. Ma Marin said suddenly.
Looking for a breakthrough from other directions?
Everyone's eyes exchanged eyes for a moment, and they all thought that this might be a solution.
"Then let's take a look. ”
Merlin nodded slightly...... You can't really wait here for the lake to dry up, can you?
The group had just walked out not far when they found a vague figure suddenly flashing in the jungle in front of them.
"Someone!" Ma Marin whispered, warning "everyone be careful. ”
Without her reminding her, Merlin had already seen the coming...... She walked forward quickly, the Soul Shadow Sword already clasped behind her back.
Sou!
A nimble black shadow landed in front of Merlin, and as soon as he fell, he shouted at Merlin.
The rest of the people were stunned for a moment, but only Mei Lin was proficient in the abyssal language, but she could clearly understand what he was saying...... Everyone knew this man, it was the leader of the crypt gnomes who attacked them in the cave.
"Human, I am grateful for your help before, but there can be no so-called friendship between the gnomes of the crypt and the humans, and I am willing to help you as a way to repay you for helping us just now. From then on, we were both clear. ”
Hearing this, Merlin had a look of surprise on her face.
The ancestors of crypt gnomes are abyssal creatures, and it is not uncommon for them to be able to speak abyssal language, but this guy is so intelligent, it is quite different from ordinary crypt gnomes.
"How are you going to help us?" asked Merlene.
"It's very simple, a teleportation array, but the magic stones used on it have to be provided by you. The leader of the crypt gnomes said.
"Teleportation array?"
A puzzled look appeared on Boseman's face: "Why is there a teleportation array?"
"How do you think the humans who lived in the castle got in and out?" asked the crypt gnome leader rhetorically.
"Please lead the way. Merlin made a decisive decision.
The leader of the crypt gnomes gave her a deep look and turned to lead the way.
"Didn't you cross the lake except for going through the teleportation array?"
"Yes. ”
The leader of the crypt gnomes replied in a very affirmative tone: "According to the legend left by the ancestors, the owner of the castle once built an iron river boat, which can also be used to cross the lake, of course, it is not as convenient as the teleportation array. However, I have never seen such an iron river boat, and it is said that the wood used to make it has long been extinct. ”
The leader of the crypt dwarfs doesn't seem to be very good at talking, and often asks ten questions before answering one, and in the end, Merlin, who is not good at communication, is simply speechless, and Boseman has the heart to say a few words, but he can't speak in the abyss, so he can only be in a hurry.
After about half an hour, the crypt gnome led everyone to a cave...... Although the outside of this cave is full of vegetation, when you get closer, you will find obvious traces of man-made in the cave, but it has become blurred in some places with the passage of time.
"It's inside. ”
Seeing that everyone's footsteps seemed to be a little hesitant, the leader of the crypt gnomes turned back and said a word, and continued to walk towards the cave, everyone looked at each other and followed in.
The entrance to the cave is a bit narrow, allowing only two people to walk side by side. But after walking in about forty or fifty meters, a huge stone hall suddenly opened up in front of me.
The group stopped, and after a quick glance around Merlin, she looked at the thing in the middle of the stone hall...... Nine tall and quaint stone pillars.
The stone pillars are not very tall, each of them is about a meter and a half, due to their thick ...... It is almost a meter in diameter, so it looks like nine evenly distributed stone platforms.
The surface around the top of the stone pillar is covered with intricate and mysterious runes, and at the top of each stone pillar, there is a place to place the magic stone...... Merlin counted that each stone pillar needed six magic stones to activate.
In other words, a total of fifty-four magic stones are needed.
"Magic stones are not a problem,"
Boseman looked at Mei Lin: "Mei Lin, do you think this teleportation array can be used?"
"I'll check it out. Merlin said, and began to check the stone pillars to check for defects in the runes...... After about three hours, Merlin made an 'OK' gesture with a faint smile on her face.
Next, it was much easier, after the fifty-four magic stones were activated, the surface of the teleportation field shook, and the runes on the nine stone pillars began to glow. After a while, runes flew up from the stone pillar and began to sink into the ground.
Airplanes~
Suddenly, a spiral-shaped circle of light suddenly appeared on the ground in the middle of the nine stone pillars.
At first, the aperture was unstable, but with the addition of runes one by one, the halos finally began to stabilize, and it looked like a ...... A real whirlpool.
"Let's go inside. ”
Mei Lin glanced at everyone and walked between the nine stone pillars, and the other three hurriedly went up.
Airplanes~
After a slight tremble, the spiral vortex on the ground seemed to be activated, and began to rotate rapidly, bursting out of light at the same time, gradually submerging the figures of the crowd.
"By the way, human, I forgot to tell you. There are also quite a few people who want to enter the castle, and they have their own way to get there. Outside the formation, the leader of the crypt gnomes suddenly said a rather shocking news.
"Yes...... The Poison Alliance?" Merlin's voice sounded intermittently.
"In addition to them, there are some ......"
The voice of the leader of the crypt gnomes became choppy, and finally the light faded, and the figures of Merlin and the others had disappeared.
