Chapter 436: The Narrow Road (3)
About thirty kilometres southeast of Lars, the fertile soil suddenly began to become barren and cracked, mixed with gravel of various sizes, and the lush forests thinned out. In the distance, the vast uninhabited wilderness stretched for thousands of miles, and the gray wilderness and the blue sky were connected into a slender black line in the unemployment benefits, barely showing a little bit of vitality in the sunlight, and it was extremely desolate at a glance.
Somewhere near the edge of this wilderness, a giant tower of white bones tens of meters high stood proudly, like a giant of white bones standing up to the sky, coldly and proudly looking at everything at his feet, exuding an aggressive and cold aura. At the top of the giant tower of white bones, Luo Ning, who was in the image of a necromancer, stood with a cane, looking down at the seven or eight strong men on the ground with a cold face, only a few traces of mockery hidden in the corners of his eyebrows and eyes.
In all fairness, Luo Ning did underestimate these powerhouses this time! He thought that with his own skills, he could escape without revealing his identity. But these powerhouses showed unusually strong strength, thwarting his magic several times, and finally forcing him to cast a defensive magic - the White Bone Tower, trapped himself at a height of tens of meters.
This was an embarrassing death, and he was even ready to transform into a frost dragon and kill the seven people. But coincidentally, during the pursuit just now, he found that the eyes of this group of people were always nailed to the two spatial rings in their hands, as if they had other intentions than killing themselves, so he deliberately stood still, waiting for the seven people to explode themselves without holding their breath first.
After a long time, Butler, the legendary warrior who had besieged Luo Ning just now, raised his long sword and shouted in a righteous and awe-inspiring voice: "Give up the struggle, you evil mage! The lackey of death! The power of justice will eventually defeat evil! With your strength, you will never escape from our hands! If you are willing to obediently sacrifice those two space rings, I can consider sparing your life!"
When the other powerhouses heard Butler say this, they all chimed in and forced Ronin to hand over the space ring.
Hearing this, Luo Ning sneered: "What a bunch of ridiculous and poor guys! They still pretend to call themselves some 'power of justice'! In the end, they are not coveting the contents of these two rings! I believe you will let me go? Hehe, I am not stupid enough to be like that!"
When he said this, his heart moved, and he suddenly laughed: "Let me hand over the space ring? Yes, but there is a problem that is more difficult to solve! My two rings contain a total of nine incomparably precious treasures, each of which is worth more than one million gold coins. But it is only the seven of you who divide the treasures! Why don't you discuss and understand first: Who should own the two extra treasures?"
"Of course," Butler wanted to say to him, "of course it's mine!" However, he also noticed that after Ronin announced the expensive value of the nine treasures million gold coins, several strong men next to him gasped, and even their breathing became two points heavier. Although they were all trying to hide it patiently, Butler knew very well that these six people, like himself, were greedy for these nine treasures, and would never share them equally with the other six.
"What a cunning devil!" Butler scolded in a low voice, then let out a hearty laugh, pointed at Ronin and scolded: "Hahaha! You cunning devil want to make us kill each other with just a few words?
He turned his head and swept over the powerhouses: "Don't fall for this necromancer! Even if you want to swallow all the treasures alone, after killing this bastard, you must each snatch it fairly according to your ability! There is not much difference in the strength of several of us, if we start fighting now, even if we can distinguish the winner from the loser, we will inevitably end up seriously injured! If he takes the opportunity to escape at that time, won't the gain outweigh the loss?"
The rest of the strong people had not yet reached the point of losing their minds because of greed, and when they heard him confess like this, they suddenly came to their senses and turned their heads to scold Luo Ning for his cunning. Butler took the opportunity to mobilize the crowd to raise their weapons and prepare for a deadly assault on Ronin.
"Damn! I'm really afraid of something! I've been busy for so long, but I still have to find a way to slaughter them all! Tsk, seven top powerhouses, this is very difficult!" Luo Ning was helpless, he only felt that it was easy to defeat and kill these strong people one by one, but at their level of strength, the means of escape and life were endless, and it was inevitable that there would be one or two fish that slipped through the net. Now he is wanted by the two lords, which is equivalent to evading the pursuit of two major forces at the same time. Once his true identity is revealed, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Seeing that the magic power fluctuations and fighting qi waves below were getting stronger and stronger, his heart was horizontal, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Forget it, fight first! Succeed or not, kill two first!" As he spoke, he pointed his bone staff at the top of the White Bone Tower, and a pale white magic light was like a light gauzy mist, slowly expanding from the center of the tower, exuding endless cold magic power.
However, just as the two sides were tense and the battle was about to break out, a rumbling sound suddenly appeared, and the ground under everyone's feet suddenly shook violently. This was followed by a strong sense of crisis that was like substance. Luo Ning only felt as if a sharp dagger made of ice had been scraped his back, and the cold chill brought by the crisis and fear spread to the tail vertebrae, which made him shiver suddenly.
It's not that Luo Ning is timid, the seven strong men on the ground are even more unbearable than him, and they all become stiff and unable to move. Two even threw their weapons directly to the ground, huddled back to back.
As the ground shook and the roar increased, Luo Ning only felt that this sense of crisis had increased unabated, and reached its peak in the next moment.
"Not good!"
At the critical moment, Luo Ning suddenly felt something, raised his bone staff to summon a white bone giant eagle, and turned over like lightning and jumped over the back of the giant eagle.
The next moment, a golden phantom burst out from under the ground, like a golden cannonball, smashing the giant tower of white bones dozens of meters high into pieces. Immediately after, a huge golden spear fell from the white bone fragments flying all over the sky, and the seven powerhouses who had no time to dodge in the future blasted into the air.
"Ah——h
A terrible scream suddenly rang out. Luo Ning stepped on the back of the white-bone giant eagle and rose straight, following the prestige, only to see a strong man pierced his chest by a thigh-thick hook-like needle, and his broken body quickly decayed and melted, and he immediately lost his voice.
Immediately afterward, the corpse, which had been decomposed into mud, was carried down by a fine needle and fell into a large mouth of blood basin with pincer-shaped claws on both sides.
Butler rolled to the ground, then looked at the huge golden figure and shouted, "Oh no! It's the king of the wilderness! Run, everyone!"
