Chapter 65: The Elven Maiden
After exchanging hearts with each other, the three of them continued to move along the secret passage, and after walking for about a few tens of meters, the secret passage became much more spacious. At this time, the walls on both sides www.biquge.info full of torches, illuminating the originally dim secret passage.
"After passing a few more secret rooms, we are nearing the end of the secret passage, which leads to an alley in the old town, through which we go out and then use skull powder to hide our tracks and get rid of our pursuers once and for all. ”
Charlotte and Claire nodded yes, and just as the two were relieved that the chaotic run was finally coming to an end, Neuham suddenly stretched out his right hand to stop him.
"Wait! something's wrong!" he said in a low voice, "I've been feeling strange since I came in, and generally no torches are lit in the secret passages to keep the air circulating. It seems that now what I feared has become a reality. ”
Without him having to explain, Charlotte and Claire knew what was wrong.
I heard a sudden angry shout from the other end of the corner in front of me, "Who's there!"
It seems that they are not the only visitors to the secret passages. Or that the three of them had a bad year, and they happened to bump into the owner of the secret passage.
Charlotte and the other two looked at each other, and the three of them showed a bitter gourd face at the same time.
"What's wrong?" a calm voice suddenly came from the stone chamber of the secret passage ahead, followed by the sound of footsteps.
"Two adults, I just heard something. The man who roared just now said respectfully, "Please leave this place as soon as possible, and my people and I will deal with them once and for all." ”
"Very well!" said the calm male voice majestically, "remember, not only cannot our identities be revealed, but so are you. If something goes wrong, I think you should know what to do. ”
"Of course, my lord," said the man resolutely, "I and my men will bring secrets to the grave!"
That brief conversation alone let the three Charlottes know that they had stabbed a hornet's nest again, and in the course of the conversation between the two, the sound of hurried footsteps was coming around the corner, and Charlotte thought that there was a prince chasing after him, and a mysterious person in front of her to intercept her, and suddenly showed a crying and laughing expression.
He shook his head and said to the two, "Brothers, it seems that we can only fight!"
Neam and Claire took a deep breath and nodded helplessly.
Charlotte and Claire intently prepared to cast a spell, while Neam stepped forward in tacit agreement, swinging the greatsword carved with demonic reliefs from behind.
The sharp broadsword showed its edge in the cramped passageway, the tip of the greatsword carved scratches into the mud wall, and Neham tried to strike his usual starting hand, but there was a piercing clanging sound in the middle of wielding the greatsword.
Dazzling sparks suddenly sputtered from the void, and in the face of this unexpected situation, Neam almost subconsciously dodged back, and even Charlotte and Claire, who were concentrating on casting spells, were startled.
The three of them looked at the abnormal space at the same time, only to see ripples suddenly in the void, and a tall and slender beautiful girl wearing a red and white ranger costume held a defensive posture with double swords, and was puffing out her cheeks and glaring at the three of them with an angry face.
"Did you know that the action was dangerous?" the girl grumbled to Neume.
She wore a single ponytail at the back of her head, the silver ponytail swaying up and down with her movements, and two delicate and small pointed ears were exposed from the combed sideburns.
That's an elf!
And Charlotte and the three of them talked here for a long time, but they didn't even notice anyone lurking here! This is not the most surprising thing for Charlotte and Claire, and what is even more surprising is that this time even the Book of Atroac and Iger's Scepter did not notice that someone was lurking.
This made the two mages from Icewind Castle look solemn, and asked the elven girl in a deep voice, "Who are you!?"
"I should ask you that!" the elven girl's voice was as pleasant as a lark, and even if she was complaining, it was like a spring in the mountains, "You three rats with hidden heads and tails!"
The girl's eyes widened in dissatisfaction, her pale golden pupils shining in the dim secret passage, and there seemed to be a faint flow of light in the pupils.
It was a manifestation of divinity! This abnormal trait made the three of them more cautious.
"Who the hell is the rat!" Charlotte subconsciously retorted, "I don't want you to say that!"
"What a faux pas!" the elf girl puffed out her cheeks unhappily, "What kind of rat can I be as holy as me?!"
"And what were you doing!?" Charlotte pursued.
"It was just a nice garden party!"
"Your garden party can swim into the secret passages of other people's houses!"
"Elves worship nature!In other words, the whole of nature is the home of our elves!" The elf girl retorted vigorously, "In that case, what's wrong with me visiting my own back garden!"
Such a crooked reason was taken for granted by the girl. Even Charlotte, who is good at distorting things, couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and Claire and Neham were even more speechless and unable to refute.
Claire turned her head to Charlotte with a stiff expression and said, "Brother, she's actually your own sister, right?"
"I don't have this kind of brother (sister) who is not a good person at first glance!"
Charlotte and the Elven Maiden retorted in unison, then glared at each other like bulls.
Ahead, a group of private soldiers in armor and holding swords had already rushed around the corner, and the leader was tall and muscular, holding a knight's half-sword, and judging from his walking posture, it looked like a regular knight was born.
But Charlotte didn't see any family crest on the team.
The knight shouted, "Shameless rats, suffer quickly!"
The elf girl pouted unhappily and complained to the three of them, "Hear, you three shameless rats who have not done enough and have more than enough bad things. ”
Charlotte tugged at Claire and shrugged her shoulders, "Seeing this woman, I think I can finally understand why I'm not likeable." ”
As he spoke, the knight was already in battle with Neam with a long sword. The cramped environment in the secret passage obviously limited the use of the big sword, and the restrained Neam was forced to scramble by the other party's elusive swordsmanship for a while.
Charlotte and Claire couldn't spare their hands to support Neham, and none of those warriors were mediocre, and they were no less elite than the Knights of Erosa.
The environment of the secret passage also restricted the play of the two mages, and the two who were worried about the collapse of the secret passage did not dare to use powerful spells, and the mages who were afraid of revealing their identities did not even dare to use their own low-level spells, and could only use ordinary low-level spells to stop the guardians.
Thanks to Charlotte and Claire's strength at this time, they are not what they used to be, and in a short period of time, various spells such as greasy spells, magic missiles, and spider web spells are at their fingertips, and they use their unbridled imagination to rewrite reality, and the two of them who cooperate with the tacit understanding only use low-level spells for a while, but they can also block the defenders.
Charlotte shouted at Neam as she cast a spell, "Ghost hand, stop hiding your strength, hurry up and fight your way out." ”
Neham, who was forced to scramble in front of him, could no longer care about exposing the existence of the magic hand, he stretched out his left sleeve, and the fierce magic hand firmly clamped the knight's hand with half a sword. The red light of the Demon Hand bloomed, and the blasphemous magic energy that burst out in an instant turned into a substantial shockwave that lifted the guardians away.
The three of them, who had this opportunity to breathe, immediately exploded their lungs when they looked at the elf girl again.
