Chapter 1923: Storm Canyon
***************************************************************************************************
After an afternoon of discussion, we still couldn't come up with a reason.
No matter what method is used, it can't get around the ancient soulless card, even if it can separate it from the girl, when it senses that this is a conspiracy, it will be enough to rush back to the girl and crush it.
In the final analysis, it is because the strength of the ancient soulless card is too strong, it is absolutely powerful for us, and people are not stupid, any strategy is fragile and pale in the face of absolute strength, unless we have the wisdom of Belier, and it is another matter.
Although several elders thanked us again and again, thinking that we were friends enough to do this job, and there was no need to take this risk, the backs of them leaving still deeply touched us.
Having been imprisoned for a thousand years, and still holding back strong hopes for our safety, such an ally deserves to be saved.
How to save? Everyone, look at me, I'll look at you, even Raphael in the transmission note paper was silent, obviously not thinking of any good way.
Under the arrangement of Elder Leighton, our group stayed in the central tower, thinking and observing the enemy's movements.
After a few days......
"Elder Leighton, why haven't you seen the Ancient Soulless Card?"
In some mysterious space in the central tower. Everyone stood inside the magic array, observing a three-dimensional image.
This stereoscopic image shows the surrounding environment, and those monster enemies show red dots, although simple, but more detailed and intuitive than the sand table, for more than half a year, the Heradik clan has relied on this method to avoid the enemies behind them. Didn't get caught by them by the tail.
Right now. It can be seen that the monster army is divided into three teams, and the closest team to us is located dozens of kilometers to the southwest, and those with many dense dots. A rough calculation should be tens of thousands.
One of the red dots stands out. Not only is it much larger than the other red dots. And it's like a radar signal, constantly emitting circles of red light, as if the location of the final boss in the game map is prompting.
According to Elder Leighton. The red dot represents the location of the mysterious girl.
And what about the card brothers? It stands to reason that the red dot it represents should be larger than that of the girl, and the circle of light emitted is more intense, but since the first time we came here, we have never seen the red dot of the card brother.
I even wonder if Elder Layton is dizzy with his old eyes, and this red dot must represent Brother Card.
"No reason...... Impossible...... Why ......" Not perceiving my skeptical gaze, Elder Layton muttered to himself at the stereoscopic image map, a difference in his face.
"When did the disappearance of the Ancient Soulless Card begin?" He suddenly turned his head and asked a nearby Hradic mage who had been monitoring the map.
"Elder, three days ago, it was when Elder Fan first came here, and not only that, but the monster troops that had been chasing behind us were also missing more than half." The mage replied with a slight bow, looking at us with some awe and adoration.
Could it be that he thought it was our appearance that scared away the ancient soulless card? What an international joke.
"Strange, why is this happening? In the past, although the Ancient Soulless Card would occasionally disappear, it never left the girl for more than half an hour. Elder Leighton muttered to himself again, his gaze falling on us, and a slight smile.
"Could it be that I was really scared away by Elder Fan?"
"Elder Leighton, don't make fun of me, if I could scare the Ancient Soulless Card away, I'd have already gone to take a look around the Durrell Palace in the depths of the tomb."
My helpless sigh caused everyone to laugh, although the road ahead is unclear, and I don't know if we can get out of the predicament, but in any case, our appearance has made these Heradiks a lot more cheerful.
"To be serious, Elder Fan, what do you think the abnormal behavior of the Ancient Soulless Card represents?"
"This is ......" I thought for a moment and replied seriously: "I think this is a trap, how can Herathan say it, it is also a non-negligible member of the entire Western Kingdom's hell power system, it has been defeated, and other hell powerhouses will definitely receive the news as soon as possible, I think, I'm afraid that the ancient soulless card already knew that we were here, so it deliberately hid it, trying to lure us out and kill us, could it be like this?" ”
"Well, that's pretty much what I think, there doesn't seem to be any other better explanation, but wouldn't it be too obvious to do so, judging from the dealings we've had with it for most of the past six months, the Ancient Soulless Card doesn't look like a guy who can play such a clear hand."
"Anyway, we can't take down this mysterious girl right now."
Looking at the red circle on the map, Layton and I both licked our lips, completely treating her as a mouthful of fat, but unfortunately even if it was on our lips, we didn't dare to bite it down because of many concerns.
If there were no ancient soulless cards to watch...... It's a shame.
"It's not a way to go on like this, for most of the year, our food has been extremely scarce, the water is fine, those monsters are not ambushed in the water source, it is convenient to get water, it's just food, no food can be grown and cultivated inside the central tower, we are now relying on our previous savings, plus the harvest during a short stay, to maintain until now, but...... There's no way to support it for long. ”
Thinking of the warehouses that had been emptied, Layton smiled bitterly, even the sandworms, scorpions, rats, snakes, etc. in the nearby desert had almost been eaten.
Could it be that you really have to hunt and eat those monsters as a last resort?
Thinking about it. Layton's stomach suddenly made an empty belly sound, Rao was wrinkled, his skin was tanned, and a slight redness could be seen on his old face.
"We can't go on like this, we have to find a way." Hungry and wise, a flash of inspiration flashed in Layton's mind.
"I have a solution."
"What's the solution? As long as we can help, but it doesn't hurt to say. We hurriedly asked, the current plight of the Heradik tribe, we see it in our eyes, and we are also anxious in our hearts. The dry food on his body was constantly distributed to the children. Now I'm running out of ammunition and food, and I'm going to go hungry.
"Since the Ancient Soulless Card can set a trap in the shadows to lure us into appearing, then we can do the opposite. Put it to the test. ”
Say so. The idea in Layton's mind became clearer. In a short time, a complete and feasible plan was formed.
He took a few steps forward and pulled the stereoscopic image map. As if swiping the touchscreen, the map quickly moved and landed in another place, a corner that seemed far away from where we are.
"Here, on the edge of the storm, the reason why our Heradic clan is imprisoned, I think everyone knows it, is because the defensive magic array created by our ancestors back then was too powerful, and a circular storm wall was built in the center of the entire desert, enclosing the entire Heradic inside, and it was impossible to go out through the storm, plus Heradium sealed our spare passage, so we were forced to be trapped here."
Everyone is familiar with this black history of the Heradik tribe and nodded.
"This is the edge of the Storm Wall." Pointing to a corner of the map, Layton continued.
"Our people have explored this place and found that there is a canyon on the edge of the Storm Wall, and although you can't go through the Storm Wall through Guò, you can enter the inside of the Storm Wall."
"And then what are we going to do?" Everyone's eyes fell on the map.
"The storm wall has a characteristic, that is, it can block a qiē perception, we enter the guò canyon inside, and introduce the mysterious girl together, once we can't perceive the girl's existence, I'm afraid that the ancient soulless card will immediately be unable to sit still, and then he will definitely appear, in the storm wall, even if it is, there is no way to find the girl quickly, we can use this time to ......"
In the end, everyone's eyes lit up, and they all realized the feasibility of this plan.
"What if the girl doesn't want to follow us in?" Sa Qili suddenly asked.
"If that's the case, there's nothing left to do." Layton smiled wryly.
"Anyway, we'll have to give it a try, Elder Leighton, is there anything else you need to add? If not, let's do it now. ”
"Okay, I'll leave it to you then, Elder Fan."
"As long as it's not an ancient soulless card, I still have some confidence, everyone should tighten the wind, so that I can escape in time." I laughed.
"Aizara, you go and inform, change the target, new target, Stormwind Canyon!"
A mage took the order and left, and we continued to stay, discussing the details, such as how to release the wind, which could not be perceived in the canyon, which interfered with the ancient soulless card at the same time, but also interfered with us, making the difficulty and danger of the wind prevention greatly increased.
And then there is the technique of pulling the monster must be sharp, and in the same way, because it cannot be perceived, the girl may not be able to track us down by some strange means, and we must keep a certain distance from her, let her follow, and lead into the depths of the canyon before we can do it.
After making a detailed plan, we are not far from the Storm Canyon, and take a look at the map, hey, those stupid hellish armies, including the girl, really followed, now, it is time to see if they are willing to enter the canyon, if they are alert and unwilling to enter, then the plan just now is in vain.
"If there's a place like Stormwind Canyon where you can isolate your senses, why don't you hide inside in the first place?" Suddenly, I remembered this question and asked curiously.
"Although Storm Canyon can isolate perception, the storm energy inside is too strong, and there is no food or water source at all, not to mention that these storms can also cause erosion to the central tower, and if you stay in it for a long time, the central tower will be destroyed."
"I see." I nodded knowingly, my eyes fell on the map, and I stopped talking.
Everyone's attention was also on the map, watching the central tower approach Storm Canyon little by little, looking at the dense red dots behind them, tracking over little by little.
Finally, on the map, the green dot representing the central tower slowly entered a T-shaped opening, and at the moment of entering the mouth of the canyon, I don't know if it was an illusion, I suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing on my body, and the whole person involuntarily shivered.
Looking at the others, including my king, everyone also had this reaction, only Leighton and the others were Heradics, who seemed to be calmer and seemed to have known about it for a long time.
What's going on, obviously with the protection of the central tower, where did this gust of wind come from?
Our eyes fell on the Storm Canyon again, and our expressions became solemn, needless to say, the eerie feeling just now must have been the ghost of the Storm Wall created by the Heradik Clan.
No wonder, it is said that even the three demon gods could not break through the defense of this storm wall head-on, originally thought it was an exaggeration, but now it seems that the truth is not so simple.
After some emotion, all our attention was focused on the red dot behind us.
Will they follow? Whether it is success or failure depends on this move......
