Chapter 791: Peer
"No...... No...... No, I can't let you succeed!" A roar of anger came from the middle of the plain, and an unusually pure white light shot out wildly, this white light seemed to want to prevent those bones from dissipating, but although the white light was strong, it was not enough to compete with the stars in the sky, and as the light emitted from Jingchen's body became more and more abundant, everything seemed to be developing in an irreversible direction.
"Why???, why do you do this to me?" the old, majestic voice sounded again, but unfortunately, there was nothing else in the entire space except for the light that still bloomed from Jingchen's body.
"Okay! you forced me!" The owner of the voice seemed to have made some kind of decision, and in the depths of the plain, a huge light suddenly lit up, and the light was so white that people didn't dare to look at it directly, and within that white light, a brilliant silver light suddenly rose, and at the moment of this silver light rising, Jing Chen, whose eyes were closed, seemed to have some kind of sense, he suddenly opened his eyes, and looked in surprise in the direction of the silver light.
"Roar!" A dragon chant that resounded through the heavens and the earth instantly pierced the night sky of the twinkling stars, and also pierced the mystical runes composed of stars, at this moment, the stars in the sky instantly dimmed, and the power of the stars connected to Jingchen's body also fell completely silent.
"Haha...... Hahaha......" Crazy laughter rang out, but there was a weakness in this laughter. I don't know how long I laughed, but the voice seemed to have laughed enough, and the owner of the voice shouted, "Look! I'm the master here, it's me......!
Suddenly, the stars that had been dimmed suddenly shone again, and endless starlight instantly sprinkled onto this plain, and the bones of those demonic beasts that had just escaped were all turned into dust in an instant.
"No...... You...... How can you do this to me!" The voice that was still laughing madly stopped abruptly, and instantly turned into an angry roar, but unfortunately, this time the star light did not give him any chance to fight back, just a few breaths, everything on the plain turned into nothingness, including the silver-white figure.
The empty plain was the last scene Jing Chen saw, although he really wanted to leave here, but the extreme overdraft made him unable to continue to persevere, all the while, the spiritual power that supported him suddenly collapsed, and Jing Chen fainted directly.
"Hehe......" An old laugh sounded, Jingchen's body flew towards the center of the plain so quickly, and after a while, he came to the core area, where a shining silver portal was standing. Suddenly, Jing Chen's galloping body froze instantly, and the next moment, a silver dragon shot like lightning from somewhere, and the little dragon had already penetrated Jing Chen's body in the blink of an eye and disappeared, and Jing Chen's body also flew into the silver shining portal at this time.
"Alas...... This silver dragon soul ...... I don't know if it's good or bad, it depends on your fate. The voice echoed across the plain, growing softer and softer, until it was no longer heard.
The gray-brown walls and the star crystals all over make it possible to determine that this is the underground palace under the Temple of Silence, but at this moment, there is not a single necromantic monster here, the two groups of people are facing each other in this huge hall, and there is a strong murderous aura in the air, the number of the two groups is not large, there are only six people on the right hand, and there are relatively more on the left, about more than ten.
These more than ten creatures are not humans, but the kind of snake-tailed human guys that Jing Chen saw at the beginning, and at this moment, under the illumination of the dim star crystal, the figures of these guys also appeared. I saw that these creatures all had a thick and ugly tail, and under the light of the star crystal, there was a faint cold glow, but the part from the waist up was extremely similar to the elves, and the upper body of these creatures was obviously much more beautiful than the elves.
Between the two groups, there was a statue of a god that emitted a faint holy light, and the statue was extremely powerful and vivid, as if it was alive, and when everyone present looked at the statue, a trace of greed flashed in their eyes.
Suddenly, the holy light above the idol suddenly lit up, and the entire dim hall was illuminated in an instant. And the two groups of people who were originally facing each other seemed to get some kind of message at the same time, and they instantly hit one place. All of a sudden, the entire hall was plunged into a frenzied battle, and huge energy fluctuations filled the entire hall, but the statue of the god sitting in the center of the hall seemed to be protected by an invisible layer of energy, no matter how powerful the energy was, it could not hurt it in the slightest.
The most fierce fight in the entire hall was the black-robed old man and a bewitching snake girl, every time they collided with one place, an unusually violent energy would surge in the space, and the strong wind that stirred up the energy swept away, and everyone else had to dodge, otherwise they would be blown by the strong wind, and the skin would be opened.
"Bang bang bang!"
Streams of surging energy erupted between the old man and the snake girl, and the ground in the hall was shaken a little by this huge force, and the brown slate that was so strong that even the black fire crystal could not destroy a single bit was also shaken down by the shockwave of the energy of these two people.
"Old fellow, do you beast court want to take advantage? My clan has waited so long, do you think it is possible to let you take the idol at will?" A cold scolding sounded, this voice was so good, even if it was a reprimand, it was so euphemistic and ethereal, just like the empty valley orchid.
The old man sneered and said, "You can take such an ownerless thing as a god statue, of course I can also take it, don't talk nonsense, see you under your hands." When the words fell, the strength of his palms increased a little more, and above his palms, there was a faint sound of thunder, and a trace of black lightning kept shining on his palms.
"Okay! you forced me!" the snake girl raised her eyebrows, and a stream of pitch-black energy suddenly shot out from her body.
"Hmph, the carving insect skill is just something taken from those nine-headed reptiles, if it is performed by those nine-headed insects, I may still care about it, you, far from it!" the old man said contemptuously, although his tone was extremely contemptuous, but his face also flashed a trace of solemnity, obviously, the skill that the snake girl was about to cast was far less innocuous than he said.
At the moment of "...... Snake Girl", the snake girl's originally tactful and ethereal voice became extremely harsh, and I saw that the hair that was originally scattered behind the snake girl suddenly stood up and became thick in an instant.
"What?!" The change of this snake girl was obviously beyond the old man's understanding, and at this moment, his face also showed a strong sense of fear, "Hurry up!" Before the old man's words fell, he had already flashed towards the entrance of the hall, at this moment, he could no longer care about the five subordinates who were still fighting with the snake people.
"Eye of Medusa!" a terrible roar pierced the entire space, and at this moment, the old man's figure had flashed out of this hall, but his five subordinates did not have the same luck as him, only to see a gray light flash in the hall, and those five people instantly turned into five statues.
"My lord, shall we catch up with that old fellow?" asked a strong man beside the snake girl in a deep voice.
The snake girl only shook her head and said, "No need to chase, just scare him away, the most important thing for us now is to send the idol back to the clan, and it is not appropriate to cause more trouble." A cold glint flashed in the snake girl's eyes, and although she wanted to take this opportunity to kill the old man, as she herself said, the priority was to return the idol safely, not to kill the old man......
I don't know how long it took, but when Jingchen came to his senses again, he only felt a splitting headache, not only that, but his whole body seemed to fall apart, and bursts of violent stinging sensations hit like a tide.
"Am I still alive?" was Jingchen's first thought after waking up.
Although the magic in his body was almost exhausted, and his body was extremely weak, the faint sound of his heartbeat told him that he was still alive.
On his forehead, a coolness came, which not only moisturized his body, but also relieved the pain in his body, and slowly replenished the depleted magic power in his body.
This is an endless green mountain jungle, as far as the eye can see, there is a piece of green, the soft wind blows through the huge trees, stirring those half-human tall weeds, and a low beast roar in the distance comes, obviously, this quiet night, is not peaceful. Among the grass, a black shadow slowly turned over, and at this moment he was looking up with his eyes open, those ancient branches, the branches of the ancient trees here were a little sparse, and he could already see a little moonlight shining through.
When the majestic wind blows through this waist-deep weed, this black shadow can be faintly seen. The black shadow was wearing a dark black leather coat, and it was not difficult to find from the residual breath on the leather coat that this animal skin must have come from a powerful demonic beast, and although that faint aura could not protect this black shadow from harm, it could discourage those demonic beasts.
The black shadow lay quietly, if it weren't for those bright eyes, and the swarthy leather armor, I am afraid that everyone would have thought that this was a demon hunter who had been killed, and the body was abandoned here. After lying down for a day and a night, the black shadow's body suddenly trembled, and then he supported his body with his hands as if he wanted to do it, but unfortunately, his body was still very weak, and he tried several times to no avail.
With a wry smile, Jingchen could only lie there quietly, it was the first time in his life that he was so seriously injured, but Jingchen still felt lucky, after all, he was still alive, and he also believed that as long as he gave himself some more time, he could move around again, and as long as there were no special circumstances, it was only a matter of time before he left here.
Of course, these are Jingchen's wishful thinking, maybe if everything is as he imagined, he can leave here safely, but the world often likes to make a big joke with us, and at this moment Jingchen has encountered this kind of thing that backfires.
"Rustling ......"
A subtle sound of his body rubbing against the weeds sounded, Jing Chen's ears moved, and his whole body instantly tensed, this kind of sound was very familiar to him, he had heard this sound more than once after working hard in this Demon Beast Mountain Range for more than a month. This is exactly the voice of those assassins who target demon hunters when they act, for more than a month, there are many assassins who have died in the hands of Jingchen, and at this moment, when he is at his weakest, he has encountered this kind of fly that usually seems to him, but can be solved in three or two clicks.
With a wry smile, Jing Chen's gaze moved to the direction where the voice came from, this person was obviously still a novice, and when he approached Jing Chen, he didn't even use his senses, so he rushed towards Jing Chen quickly. At this moment, Jing Chen couldn't wait to scold, he never thought that he would die in the hands of this kind of rookie assassin, but the reality is so cruel, when the assassin saw Jing Chen lying in the grass looking at him, Jing Chen clearly saw a trace of greed flashing in his eyes.
"Hehe......" The man laughed happily, his face also turned red with excitement, just like a drunk person, without any hesitation, the assassin instantly pounced, a cold flash in his hand, and a sharp blade more than a foot long pierced Jing Chen's chest.
"It's over!" Jing Chen secretly exhaled, his eyes closed, and he waited for the cold blade to pierce his heart. "Poof" There was a soft sound, and the expected pain did not hit, Jingchen was stunned in his heart, and then secretly said, It seems that my body has not fully recovered, and I can't even feel the pain of being punctured in the heart.
With a sigh of relief, Jingchen lay there waiting for death to come, and suddenly, a sticky liquid dripped onto Jingchen's face, and the liquid was different from the cold dew, and it was still a little hot.
At this moment, a rough voice sounded, "How is it? Can you still get up?" Hearing this voice, Jing Chen hurriedly opened his eyes, only to see that the assassin who was originally going to plot against him had died of anger, and at this moment, at the position of the assassin's chest, he had been pierced by a bright gun, and drops of blood were left along the tip of the spear and dripped on Jing Chen's face.
"I'm not dead?" Jingchen looked at the big man with the gun in front of him suspiciously, the big man was two meters tall, only the vital parts of his body were covered with rattan armor, and the rest were mostly exposed, and the solid muscles were shining with bronze light under the moonlight, and those bulging muscles like a hill gave people a huge visual impact.
"If it weren't for my brother Tieshan, you would have died. Suddenly, behind the big man, a playful voice came, and the voice was as graceful as a yellow bird.
The big man pulled away the assassin with both arms, then turned his head and glared at the girl who was following him, and said in a deep voice, "Xiaorou, how do you speak?"
"People are telling the truth, Brother Tieshan is fierce Xiaorou again, Xiaorou wants to tell Daddy!" said the girl, turned around and ran to the rear.
"Xiaorou! Xiaorou......" The big man shouted a few times, and when he saw that the girl was getting happier and happier, he sighed and let her run away. Turning his head, the big man looked at Jingchen who was lying on the ground, and smiled a little embarrassedly, "Brother, it's not strange, this is my sister, who has been used to by her parents since she was a child, and she is a little willful." Scratching his head, he didn't know what to say.
Jingchen was slightly stunned, he really didn't expect that not only did he not die, but he also met such a simple man, and hurriedly said, "Big brother is polite, I have to thank you for saving me." Saying that, Jingchen's body trembled, as if he wanted to get up and thank him.
Dahan hurriedly leaned down to support Jingchen and said, "Brother, you don't have to be polite, just now I went out to patrol with my little sister, and I found that this black shadow was sneaky and suspicious, so I kept following it, but I didn't expect to meet you, brother, so I killed the assassin with my hands. Saying that, the big man helped Jingchen up, frowned slightly, and asked, "Brother, your injuries are quite serious, will I carry you to our camp?" After speaking, without waiting for Jingchen to answer, he carried Jingchen on his back, supported Jingchen behind him with one hand, and carried the snowy gun with the other hand, and ran straight in the direction where the girl left.
Jingchen's injuries were indeed too serious, and if he was only supported by the big man, it would be difficult to move, so he didn't refuse the big man's kindness.
"Bang bang bang!" the big man galloped quickly through the woods, and soon came to a camp lit with a bonfire.
"Dad, you see, this is the person who came back from Big Brother Tieshan, and when we arrived just now, an assassin was about to kill him. As soon as the big man named Tieshan entered the camp, the girl's voice sounded, obviously asking for credit from her father.
"Oh?" a middle-aged man's voice sounded, and there was a sense of righteousness in the middle-aged man's voice, and he was obviously also a righteous and bright person.
Jingchen raised his eyes and saw a middle-aged man walking slowly to his side, this middle-aged man had white skin and a peaceful face, and his most prominent thing was those eyes, shining like stars, as if he could see through people's hearts, Tie Shan also put Jingchen down at this moment.
"Little brother, how are you hurt?" Saying that, the middle-aged man reached out and grabbed Jingchen's arm, the dazzling white light rose suddenly, Jingchen only felt that a soft energy instantly flowed into his body, and those painful places in his body also recovered quickly at this moment, Jingchen looked at the middle-aged man in front of him in surprise, and said, "You are a priest?" On this continent, there may not be only a priest who can use light-based magic, but only a priest can use light-based healing magic so proficiently.
"Hehe, you have such good eyesight, you can see Daddy's profession at a glance. Tieshan Urn said angrily.
"Who can't see Dad's profession? On the mainland, can there be other professions that can cast light-based healing magic to this extent? Brother is so stupid!" the girl standing on the side said in a crisp voice, and made a grimace at Tie Shan after speaking.
"Rou'er, don't be rude, how can you talk to your brother?" The white light gradually dissipated, and the middle-aged man slowly let go of the hand holding Jingchen, and looked at his daughter with a slightly gloomy face.
"Hmm...... I know, Rou'er pay attention next time, pay attention next time, okay? Saying that, the girl turned around and walked to the other side of the camp with a gloomy face, and at the moment when the girl turned around, Jingchen clearly saw that the girl actually made a grimace at herself and Tie Shan. Obviously, the middle-aged man's words didn't really hit her, seeing this, Jingchen couldn't help but smile, but it was okay not to laugh, this smile actually affected the injury, and then the smile became a little hideous.
"Xiaoshan, help him sit down. The change in Jingchen's expression obviously did not escape the eyes of the middle-aged man, and hurriedly asked his son to help Jingchen sit on the felt. After Jingchen sat down, the middle-aged man slowly said to Jingchen, "Little brother, do you still have teammates, if not, just leave this Demon Beast Mountain Range with us?"
"Then I'm going to trouble you and you. Saying that, Jingchen was about to give a salute, but was stopped by the middle-aged man, and only listened to the middle-aged man, "Don't be so polite, walk outside, who hasn't bumped into each other, just help if you can." As he spoke, he looked up at Tieshan and said, "Give him my bedding." ”
"Daddy, you still have to rest tonight, or give him mine, right? I'll be on duty tonight. Tie Shan frowned slightly and looked at his father. Hearing the conversation between the two fathers and sons, Jingchen hurriedly said, "I have my own cover, just use my own." As he spoke, a new set of covers appeared in front of Jingchen.
"Huh?" Seeing Jingchen's brand-new cover, the middle-aged man sighed lightly, but he didn't say anything, but a trace of imperceptible doubt flashed in the depths of his eyes. It's no wonder that middle-aged people are puzzled, Jingchen is indeed full of suspicious things. First of all, Jing Chen's ability to survive in this Warcraft Mountain Range, where Warcraft is rampant, is a place that puzzles him very much, and secondly, people who generally explore in this Warcraft Mountain Range, whether they come in a group or individually, except for assassins, few people can have such a brand-new cover.
After all, even if you have a space ring, the capacity of the general space ring is not large, and few people will use that compact space to bring several sets of such useless things. Of course, the middle-aged man did not express his doubts, as a believer of the Holy See, he himself has a heart of fraternity, even if Jingchen is an assassin, but as long as he doesn't want to be unfavorable to him, he doesn't want to do anything to Jingchen.
Jingchen didn't care about this, at this moment, he could finally relax and fall asleep, since entering this Demon Beast Mountain Range, he hadn't slept peacefully for a day, although cultivating the starry sky secret method could relieve the fatigue on his body, but for normal people, sleeping has become a habit, and it is also a kind of enjoyment, and sometimes it has little to do with relieving fatigue. And at this moment, Jingchen is precisely to enjoy this time of comfortable sleep, and the fatigue of the past few days has made him fall into a deep sleep after a while.
The early morning sun sprinkled over the entire Warcraft Mountain Range, the sky was cloudless, blue like a wash, a huge sun had slowly climbed up, and at this moment, in the small camp, someone had already begun to cook porridge and barbecue. For people who come here to explore, barbecue is the main food, although everyone will bring some dry food, but the taste of the dry food is not only not comparable to the barbecue, but the dry food is also used for emergencies, when there is other food, generally no one will eat dry food.
Jingchen's body trembled, and he slowly opened his eyes, although he had only slept for one night, the pain in his body was almost unfelt, and the energy in his body had also recovered a lot with the help of that divine pattern, and there was no big problem with simple actions. Slowly sitting up, Jingchen looked around, and there were two servant-looking men who were busy cooking breakfast, and not far away, there were three people who were also dressed as servants, packing their bags.
"Wake up, how do you feel?" The middle-aged man had come to Jing Chen's side at some point, Jing Chen turned his head to look at the middle-aged man, and said with a slight smile, "It's good, you should be able to move around." Saying that, Jingchen propped his arms back slightly, and was about to stand up.
"Liar, yesterday you were so badly injured, and your father said that you would have to raise it for at least four or five days, how could it be okay so soon?" The girl named Rou'er dodged out from behind the middle-aged man, and she was still holding a bowl of fragrant meat porridge in her hand, at this moment, the middle-aged man's eyes also looked at Jingchen suspiciously, and he didn't believe that Jingchen could resume his actions so quickly.
Jingchen smiled, didn't say much, his hands on the ground were slightly forced, and his body suddenly bounced up, although he was not as flexible as before at this time, but as he said, there was not much problem in hurrying.
"You...... Are you really standing up?" the girl looked at Jingchen in surprise, her hand trembled, and the porridge she was holding in her hand almost fell to the ground. Immediately, she looked at her father suspiciously, and at this moment, there was a deep incredulity in her eyes. She knew her father's strength, although he was not a peak powerhouse, but he was already a fifth-level high-level priest, and he was also a very famous priest in his family's generation, she never expected that her father would look away.
At this moment, the middle-aged man looked at Jing Chen with a slight frown, he didn't understand how Jing Chen was able to recover his mobility so quickly, judging from his more than 100 years of experience, this was simply a miraculous existence.
Jingchen smiled slightly, his right hand swiped in the air, and a faint green light suddenly rose, and then the green light also fell on Jingchen's body, between the green rays, the surrounding air was filled with a strong breath of life, this breath lasted for a long time, and the father and daughter who were bathed in it felt refreshed. The fluctuation of this life element also attracted the side glances of those servants, and they also glanced at Jingchen with a surprised face, no one understood how this young man, who was almost dying yesterday, seemed to be alive today.
"So you're a druid?" The middle-aged man also showed a smile on his face, to a certain extent, the priest and the druid of the life department are best friends, no matter at any time, the two professions are complementary to each other, which not only creates the friendship between the Moon Clan and the Holy See, but also makes the people of these two professions have a natural affection for each other.
"Hmm. Jingchen nodded, and then cast a rejuvenation spell on his body, although this kind of recovery magic did not have much effect on his injuries, but it was better than nothing, and it could also have some recovery effect.
At this moment, the middle-aged man's face also had a knowing smile, and all doubts about Jingchen were wiped out at this moment, just like few priests would do something related to killing, the druids of the life department were also the most peace-loving people. And whether it is a priest or a druid of the life department, as long as you look at the purity of their energy, you can judge what the person's heart is, and seeing Jingchen's pure life energy, middle-aged people will naturally no longer suspect that Jingchen has any sinister intentions.
By the time the day was on the third stroke, the group had already set off.
"Brother Tieshan, thank you for saving me yesterday. Jingchen walked beside Tie Shan and said gratefully. If it weren't for Tie Shan, the rookie assassin yesterday would have already succeeded, and he was probably too dead to die at this moment, and Jing Chen didn't know how to be grateful to Tie Shan for this life-saving grace.
"It's okay, it's just a gesture, Dad said, when you go out, you can help, it's always good. After saying that, he scratched his head with a smirk. And seeing Tie Shan's honest appearance, Jing Chen's heart was also warm, and it was his blessing that he could meet such a pure person.
"Brother, I don't know what your name is, you see......"
Jing Chen patted his head, and couldn't help but smile a little ashamedly, "It's that I'm abrupt, my little brother's name is Jing Chen, and Brother Tieshan can just call me Xiao Chen." After a pause, Jingchen opened his mouth and asked, "Brother Tie, where are you going?" At this moment, Jingchen was completely unable to distinguish the direction, and God knew where he was thrown after coming out of that strange valley.
"Oh, my sister and I went with my father to visit a friend of my father in the Fran Empire, which is already on the edge of the Warcraft Mountains, and in a few days, we will be in the territory of the Fran Empire. Iron Mountain laughed.
