Chapter 399: Tricky
Although the fifth-level wind magic "Wind Elf's Blessing" can increase the movement speed, but just now he has cast a level 10 magic, Li Lin's consumption is a bit large, and now he can only choose to recover slowly.
Fortunately, by the time he arrived in the small town of Alean, his physical strength had recovered about half, and although he might not be able to perform level 10 magic again, he would not be powerless to fight back.
"Not quite right. As soon as he stepped into the small town of Yalean, Li Lin sniffed out that something was wrong.
It's so quiet.
The whole of Arion, as if it had been muted.
It turned out to be completely silent.
Excessive quietness is an anomaly in itself – and this truth applies in any film.
Li Lin ran to the Church of Light as soon as possible, and he wanted to confirm Mr. Tom's safety.
Mr. Tom had returned with news from the Dark Temple, and was the most likely to be attacked.
"This ......" After seeing the Church of Light, Li Lin couldn't help but stop.
I saw that the Church of Light was clinging to a black vine, and the whole building was densely blackened, which made people get goosebumps when they saw it.
Directly above the black vines, a head grew, and that head was staring at Li Lin with blank eyes.
"Who are you. Li Lin tried to talk to the head.
But the head seemed to be just a dead thing, and he didn't respond to it.
Li Lin took a step to the left, and the eyeballs of the head also turned.
Li Lin turned to the right again, and the eyes of his head turned again.
"It seems that he is similar to a doorman, is he warning me to break in?" Li Lin muttered, according to this situation, if he wants to break into the Church of Light, there is a chance that he will be attacked by black vines.
"But what exactly is this black vine, a monster cultivated by the Dark Temple?" Li Lin thought again, the situation seemed to be even more serious than he had imagined.
The Dark Temple not only corrupts human souls, but I'm afraid there are other cruel things going on.
That black vine grew a head, which in itself was a terrifying plot, Li Lin didn't know how the Dark Temple cultivated this monster, but he didn't think that there would be no lack of blood or soul.
It's tricky.
There must be something hidden in the Church of Light, and the other party does not hesitate to occupy the entire church.
But the strength of that black vine is unknown, and if you trespass, you may not be pleased.
After thinking about it for a while, Li Lin decided to return home first.
On a certain level, the Dampsey family is the foundation of Li Lin's power, which is absolutely not to be missed.
。。。
At this moment, the Dampsey family has been guarded by a large magic array, which was built by Li Lin two years ago at the expense of heavy investment, and it almost made Dampsey III angry at the beginning.
In the third world, the town of Alean is a place that has no quarrel with the world, and can it be a waste of money to build that kind of magic array?
As it turned out, Li Lin was right.
Now this large magic array just came in handy.
If it weren't for the fact that the cost of building a magic array was too high, Li Lin even planned to give one to the entire town of Alean.
But now is not the time to think about this, Li Lin knew where the secret door of the magic array was, and he walked to the backyard of the Dampsey family, where he found a well.
The well is very hidden by the leaves, and it cannot be found unless you look carefully.
Li Lin took a look and found that there were no traces of these leaves being moved, and it seemed that no one had passed through the well before he came.
This well is known only to the Tucson Butler, and if the Tucson Butler were caught by the Dark Temple, the location of the well would definitely be exposed.
Those whose souls are corrupted, memories will not be a secret to the Dark Temple.
From this, it can be inferred that the Tucson housekeeper should be safe and sound.
Li Lin lifted the leaves and carefully climbed into the well.
The well was very dry, probably due to the fact that it rarely rained in the Yalian area, and there was no moisture in it, so Li Lin quickly climbed to the deepest depths.
As far as the eye could see, the underground was pitch black, and Li Lin casually pinched out the first-level fire magic "Fireball Technique" to illuminate the underground, directly illuminating a passage.
After walking along the passage for a long time, I came to an upward stone staircase, and at the end of the stone staircase was a heavy iron gate.
Li Lin stuck to the iron door and activated the fourth-level magic "Whisper of the Wind Elf", which can increase hearing through the wind element.
Faintly, a voice was heard.
"Hasn't Noh come back yet?" was the voice of Dempsey III.
"Master, young master goes to the vineyard, if there is no accident, he will die there. At this time, another voice said, this voice Li Lin had heard, and it seemed to be the butler beside the third world.
"yes, that's fine...... I can't let him survive. Dampsey III's voice breathed a sigh of relief.
Hearing this, Li Lin knew that something had happened to Dempsey III, and it was likely that he had been controlled by the Dark Temple, in other words, the Dampsy family had fallen into the hands of the Dark Temple.
Although he knew that this result was likely to happen, when it really happened, Li Lin still sighed involuntarily.
The Dampsey family was too weak in the face of such a behemoth as the Dark Temple, so Li Lin didn't want to raise his profile so quickly, and the situation was really getting more and more tricky.
The "mistake" in the magic assessment a few days ago was too fatal.
But it's useless to regret it, and now it's time to find the Tucson housekeeper first.
Li Lin has left some backhands in the past few years, but he needs the assistance of Tucson's housekeeper.
But at this moment, there was movement under the stone steps, and it seemed that someone was running up from below.
Li Lin frowned, quietly pinched the seventh-level magic in his hand, ready to release it at any time.
Soon, someone rushed up from under the stone steps.
The girl's fragrant scent also greeted her.
A petite figure rushed into Li Lin's arms, trembling and said, "Dan Puxi, it's really you! It's great that you're back alive...... I'm so scared...... Woowoo woo ......"
Li Lin patted Wendy's back and said indifferently: "It's going to be hot, get out of here." ”
Wendy: "......"
"Why are you here?" Li Lin pushed Wendy away, a hint of caution in his eyes.
He couldn't be sure if Wendy was controlled by the Dark Temple like Dempsey III, and this secret passage was only known to him and the Tucson butler, so Wendy's appearance was unreasonable.
As if sensing Dempsey IV's vigilance, Wendy hurriedly explained, "It was Mr. Tucson who told me about this secret passage. ”
Li Lin's eyes flashed, "Is this true?
"He's in Chamber Three. Wendy said immediately.
"Number three?" Li Lin frowned slightly.
In order to prevent a situation like today's, Li Lin had already made a lot of preparations, the magic array was one, and this secret passage was also one, in addition, he also asked the Tucson housekeeper to make several secret rooms that were convenient for hiding and escaping.
There are three such chambers in total.
Li Lin did not have a special name, they were called the No. 1 secret room, the No. 2 secret room and the No. 3 secret room.
In terms of the nature of protection and concealment conditions, Room No. 3 is the safest, and it is also the secret room that Li Lin believes needs to be opened only when the situation is most urgent.
Because this kind of secret room is designed with a kind of mechanism, similar to the Broken Dragon Stone of the Ancient Tomb School in the Condor Heroes, once the mechanism is opened, the secret room will be completely locked, outsiders can't enter, and it's not easy for people inside to get out.
The reason why it is not easy to come out is because the necessary condition for coming out is to release magic above level ten.
Now that he heard that the butler of Tucson had actually opened the third secret room, Li Lin couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Is the situation really going to be like this?
"Mr. Tucson said that if there was any sign of someone coming in and out of that well in the backyard, it must be that you have returned, and he wants me to inform you that the Dempsey family has completely fallen and cannot go in again. Wendy quickly finished speaking, knowing that her safety would not be guaranteed without the trust of Dempsey IV.
Room 3 couldn't get in, and Wendy had been hiding in the Dempsey family's backyard to escape.
Li Lin sorted out his thoughts for a moment and felt that there were many things that needed to be clarified.
"Butler Tucson is seriously injured?" Li Lin asked directly.
Wendy was stunned, "How do you know?"
"With the nature of a Tucson butler, if it weren't for something I couldn't get out of, he would definitely be in front of me in person, especially in such an emergency. Li Lin said slowly: "Even the third secret room has been opened, I can only guess that he was seriously injured and had to lock himself in the secret room." ”
