15. The incarnation of the Soul Reager
Since the whole temple was under the lake, the ground of this place was wet, and Dick's feet would make a crackling sound when he stepped on it, but Lady Verinde, who had thick pads of flesh on her feet, would not make any sound even if she walked on the wet ground.

"There's those zombies up ahead, I smell the stench!
Verine pulled Raddic's arm, and the paladin looked back at the werewolf with a disgusted face in surprise, he glanced back, this corridor is at least nearly a hundred meters long, such a long distance, this cowardly werewolf, can actually smell those smells?
The paladin was being dizzy by the surprisingly large dungeons of the real world, and it was difficult for him to accurately determine the direction of these corridors without a minimap, and now Verinde had given him a surprise, Dick asked tentatively,
"Xingge, can you smell the beast here?"
"Beasts, what beasts, and beasts can live in this environment?"
Verinder gave Dick a startled look, and then sucked hard, and the ears of the two gray wolves stood up suddenly,
"Sure enough, it smells like a snake... But it's not quite like that. β
"That's right!
Dick happily stretched out his hand, pinched Verinde's wolf ear, and said to her, "Wind Snake! The beast that is closest to the Soul Reaper is also one of Haka's beast symbols in this world.
The werewolf was very impatient and knocked off Dick's hand, then closed her eyes, while inhaling the air violently, she quickly turned around in the corridor in front of her, and walked towards the southwest, Demitil and Herunis followed Dick, these two living treasures looked at each other unpleasantly, if it weren't for Dick's suppression, they would have fought long ago.
However, the green dragon's natural resistance to toxins is really strong enough! Just ten minutes after getting out of the trap, this sturdy dragonman regained all his strength, and even the wounds on his body began to heal quickly, and then several waves of enemies encountered in the corridor, without even Dick's attack, this warlike dragonman would roar and pounce on it, tearing those eyeless trolls and zombies to pieces with the hideous bone spear in his hand and the musket at his waist.
It was also the first time Dick had seen a dragonman with such martial arts, which made his impression of Herunis, the dragonman who called himself Darth, much better.
Under the human form of the "Orb of Deception", Herunis's movements are as fast as lightning, coupled with his great strength, Dick even suspects that Demytil, who has turned into a dragon, may not be the opponent of this eccentric dragon man with a chaotic background!
He had actually seen Jindu, and he was able to get out of it with his whole body, and it sounded like there was some untold story between Darth and Jindu.
Who is Jindu? That is the troll priest who single-handedly revitalized the Gulabash Troll Kingdom that had been silent for 1,000 years, and the mastermind behind the "Return of the Soul Reastrar" in the future! The spiritual leader of all the trolls in the entire Thorn Valley!
From this point of view alone, this Darth is definitely not an ordinary person!
The group walked forward for ten minutes, and at the signal of Vilinde, the furious and noisy dragonman stabbed through a wall with one shot, and then everyone's eyes suddenly opened up!
It was a large sacrificial room, with a strange black altar, which looked very strange, like a sarcophagus embedded in the ground, around this altar, strange and complicated magic patterns were carved in an unknown way, and the most terrible thing was that it seemed that a sacrifice had just been carried out here, so there were still blood-red things left in those magic pattern grooves, and a pungent smell of blood that made people want to vomit was simply rushing to the face.
"Whew~"
Verinde, who had the most keen sense of smell, turned around and ran out for the first time, and then there was the sound of her retching, Dick and the solemn Demitil looked at each other, and the guy Hrunis was about to enter with a big grin, but was stopped by Dick.
"Don't go in, do you see those four blue lights? That's the soul lamp, once all four lights are extinguished, the incarnation of the Spirit Reaver will come to this world!"
"How is it possible?"
Herunis looked back at the four dark blue lights suspiciously, and even Demitil and the depressed Verinde raised objections, and among them, Verinde, the former priestess, had the most say in this regard.
"Even if an evil god wants to cross the plane barrier and descend into this world, he needs a carrier! In this room, I can't see any carrier at all! Is the spirit snatcher stronger than Elune? What Elune can't do, this evil god can't do!"
The werewolf wagged her tail, only to be given a blank look by Dick,
"Who said there is no carrier! Remember the smell of the Wind Serpent I let you sniff? Demi, you should know what the Soul Reager's favorite beast is, as long as we can get enough Wind Serpent mutilation and blood, we can extinguish these four lights, and when the Soul Reacher's incarnation comes, we can kill it in this world!"
A glint flashed in the paladin's eyes, "This may not threaten the Soul Reager, but at least it will relieve the pressure on Illanicus, and then as long as you find the place where the Atalai trolls have set up the enchantment and their leader, and destroy it, you will be able to eliminate these stubborn trolls in one fell swoop." β
As Dick spoke, he suddenly thought of a very critical question, and he tilted his head in confusion and looked at Dmytil,
"Speaking of which, you Green Dragon Legion have been stationed here for hundreds of years, right? Why haven't you been able to destroy these trolls?
Hruunis had no intention of engaging in such a pointless conversation, and the dragonman hurried through the sinister hall and into the corridor on the other side, where many wind snakes of various colors were flapping their short wings and flying around.
Demitil replied with some embarrassment,
"Actually, it's not a secret, since we were stationed here, we did clear the cultists of this evil god at the beginning, but it didn't take long for new trolls to pour into this temple, although this is the last temple of the soul snatchers in this world, but its followers are all over the world's troll tribes, unless all the trolls are killed, the legacy of Hakalai cannot be broken. β
Speaking of this, the young green dragon couldn't help but sigh,
"And the nightmare that breeds in the Emerald Dream comes too quickly, after the accident from the Emerald Dream Realm, our people here are in a mess, Lord Illanicus has fallen into a deep sleep, this group of trolls is becoming more and more rampant, even if the other Emerald Dragons come at random, they can clear the crisis here, but you also know that we are too short of manpower, all the Emerald Dragons have their own tasks, and everyone is much more important than here, which is why we have to ask for help from the outside world, to be honest, relying solely on the Green Dragon Legion, there is no way to deal with hereγ β
Dick's face became ugly, he heard more from Demytil's words, in fact, from the time of the Battle of Mount Hyjal, a terrible fantasy was formed in Dick's mind, and the Green Dragon Queen Ysera also seemed to mention this matter, but it was not until this moment that Dick suddenly discovered that the power of the guardian dragon legion, the power left by the Titans to protect the world, seemed to have some kind of abnormality.
This, combined with the history of the game, can be seen clearly by Dick.
Twenty-four years after the Dark Gate, whenever the Dragon Legion appears, players are left with the impression that they look strong, but they are actually not that strong. It's like a master who doesn't make a move easily, and an occasional shot may be amazing, but in general, a powerful force like the Dragon Legion really shouldn't leave this impression!
Unless, they're in a lot of trouble inside, too!
"The Wind Serpent is coming! What should I do?"
Just as Dick was thinking about this, the sound of Herunis's urn came to him, and the paladin looked up, and the reckless man had slaughtered almost all the wind snakes in the empty hall, and the fresh smell of blood made Dick retch.
"Pile the corpses on the altar and take blood!" and douse the braziers one by one in a clockwise direction!"
The paladin shook his head, and all the chaotic thoughts were out of his mind, and the four of them, each guarding the four sides of the altar, starting with Demytil, the blood of the stinking wind snake was poured on the shadowy brazier, and in a short time, the first blue lamp was extinguished.
And just as the foul smell of smoke rose, the originally dim altar suddenly buzzed, and the strange magic patterns on the surrounding ground also seemed to come to life, shining with blood-red light, and with the appearance of that light, the unpleasant disgust contracted and expanded above the altar, and the shadow of a wind snake with gray bones all over its body, but still flapping its wings, appeared in the smoke.
"That's Haka's incarnation, Verinde, continue to pour out the fire brazier!Demitil, you go outside to stop those trolls, it's best to mobilize your people, don't worry about the leaders of those trolls, as long as Haka's avatar is dead, we will have enough time to defeat them individually!"
The paladin grabbed the corpse of a wind snake from the ground and poured its green blood on the brazier, the wind snake is a monster, the whole body is no different from an ordinary python, with slippery scales and vicious eyes, and a snake letter, the only difference is that the body of the wind snake has bat-like wings, with the flapping of these wings, they have the ability to glide at low altitude.
And the life span of the wind snake is very long, Dick has seen the complete body of the soul snatcher Haka who has descended into the world in the game, and its carrier at that time is a blood-red old wind snake that is said to have lived for thousands of years, and when it straightens up, it is definitely as high as five or six floors!
And in the mythology of the Minotaur, the more advanced wind snake seems to have the ability to soar high in the sky, and can even compete with the dragon, but Dick has never seen this kind of wind snake, but the earliest natives of Azeroth, the number of trolls is so large that it seems that there has been a tradition of worshipping the wind snake since ancient times, and the belief of Hakale seems to have appeared at that time.
In short, it is a twisted beast that does not look beautiful in the slightest, and on the contrary, makes people feel disgusting and evil.
The second brazier, the third brazier, when Dick himself was about to extinguish the fourth brazier, the shouts of killing outside the hall had already reached Dick's ears, and Demitil returned to his dragon form in the wide hall, and a large group of dragonmen rushed from nowhere to help it resist the attack of a large number of troll zombies and brutes.
And in the sacrificial hall, the rich disgust had been completely absorbed by the huge windsnake with gray bones, and its head looked at Dick, without eyes, but Dick could feel that an evil will was trying to oppress his heart.
It was the same slippery feeling as touching a snake with his own hands, like a big snake that couldn't see its figure, was wrapped around Dick's neck, slowly strangling his trachea, Dick's breathing became hot, he looked at the gray bone wind snake in the air, and there seemed to be a vision of Haka dozens of meters tall, with strange claws, bright back wings on his back, and a hideous and strange head.
The Soul Reaver was looking at him with indifference, like a bug that couldn't help himself!
Just as he was about to fight back, Avena's disgusted voice appeared in Dick's mind,
"Get out of here! You are not allowed to hurt him! This is someone's territory!"
"Bang!"
Dick's illusion vanished, and at the same time, a sonic boom cloud appeared in the air, and the corpse of the wind snake in Dick's hand trembled, and the last brazier was extinguished.
With gusts of yin wind blowing into the bone marrow, it blew into the hall from an invisible place, and in the darkness, the gray bone wind snake composed of smoke flapped its bone wings and flew down from the altar, and an inexplicable will appeared in the minds of everyone present.
It was an evil voice, it was a voice with multiple trills, and people would feel dizzy and their chests swell when they listened to it.
"I'm coming... This world, the Soul Reaver... It's coming!"
"Here, don't think about leaving!"
In the wall of smoke rising around him, a dazzling holy light rose into the sky, and Dick had changed into his new armor at some point, and under the triangular hood-like visor, a pair of tiny eyes were fixed on the not-so-strong Haka avatar, and beneath his golden, red, and black hand armor, the flame of righteousness infused by the Holy Energy reappeared.
When the paladin walked out of the wall of smoke step by step with the holy hammer, the blessing of strength, the blessing of wisdom, the aura of punishment, the aura of defense, and the dreamlike wings of holy light behind it completely illuminated this hall that had been dark for hundreds of years.
Under the increase of the new armor set, Dick once again felt the power flowing in his body beyond the lord level, although it was only 5 minutes, Dick moved his wrist and raised a finger, the steel armor snapped, and the sound of urns and urns came from under the mask,
"5 minutes!
