Volume 3 High Mandate Chapter 18 Shattered Dreams (Part II)

"Here!" Miria shouted softly, pointing to the sign on the gate.

"Is this ......" Heatis looked at and said in surprise, "...... sign of the Apocalypse Revolutionary Army?" ”

"What?!" Yugari was also very surprised.

"How could the people of the Apocalypse Revolutionary Army be here?!" Heather muttered.

"I heard that the laboratory of the Vigil Forest was taken by the guild alliance not long ago." At this moment, a man's voice suddenly came from inside the door.

"yes. It seems that even the researcher over there has died, and it is the proud student of the doctor. Another man replied.

"Have you heard what is going on?"

"I don't know, eighty percent of the trouble was caused by getting too close to the people in the guild."

"That's bad luck. In this way, it's still an easy errand here. The two brothers who came in with me, because they were assigned there, are now dead and wounded, and they are almost miserable. Like me, as long as I stand here and occasionally help the doctor carry things, I can handle it. At least I won't lose my life. ”

"I can't say that, but it's an errand to eat anyway, if it weren't for the fact that the family couldn't open the pot, who would ......"

Before the words fell, a sharp long sword instantly crossed the man's throat, "Don't move!" A shrill female voice sounded behind him. The man's face turned pale with fright, and he didn't dare to make a sound. At this time, the man saw that a long-handled scythe was also erected in front of his companion.

"Don't, don't, don't kill me. Me, I...... Those who were only temporarily arrested were not considered members of the revolutionary army. The man prayed in a cold sweat.

"How many people are there? What for? Answer truthfully, and I won't kill you! Heather said coldly.

"Plus, plus us, there are six people in all." The man replied tremblingly, "This is the doctor's lab, and we're just called in to help move things." I have a young family and an old family, begging, begging the adults to spare my life......" The man said, tears and snot streaming down his face. His legs trembled with fear.

Heather gave Miria a look, and the two immediately knocked them unconscious. Bralla had just stepped forward to help them tie up the two guards and hide them in a nearby storeroom. After dealing with all this, Si Xisi said in a low voice, "This place should have been built for a long time, and as a secret research laboratory of the revolutionary army, there should be a lot of valuable information. We try to take them before they destroy them. He just said that the doctor is in there too, let's go in and have a look. Be careful with your surroundings. ”

Eugari and the others nodded, and followed Heatis cautiously inside. Every room you pass by on the road is very neatly furnished and cleaned, even if it is not spotless, it is definitely cleaned by people on a regular basis. "So this doctor isn't as scruffy as he seems." Heather complained sarcastically.

"What? Have you heard of him? Miria asked curiously.

"Sort of. It is said that his father and ancestors were once the top alchemists in the human kingdom, but then disappeared for a long time, and later, during a sweep of the revolutionary army, the information of his family was discovered, and it was speculated that they might have joined the revolutionary army. People who have been in contact with their family before say that their lives are a mess, and the place they live in is no different from a garbage dump, but they are indeed a once-in-a-century geek. ”

Just after they passed through a stone door, the figures of the three guards behind them immediately flashed out from the door, and before they could turn around, several sharp weapons whistled towards them. Hecis raised her shield sideways, kicked hard with one foot, and knocked out the three guards who attacked at once. Miria and Brala rushed after them, simply knocking them to the ground. The massive force of Brala's tomahawk smashed the walls of the laboratory to pieces. As the walls collapsed, the screeching sirens rang out.

"Look at what you've done." Miria complained.

"Let's get inside." "The Doctor should be left alone, don't give him time to prepare." Find him first! With that, everyone hurriedly ran.

When they reached the end of the room, an old man with silver hair, unkempt ears, lips and teeth, and a hunched back appeared before them. I saw that he was wearing a light blue unusually shabby coat, which was full of holes and miserable. Holding a brown wooden rattan staff, a large puddle of dark green liquid under his feet, emitting a pungent stench.

"Are you the Doctor of the Apocalypse Revolutionary Army?" Heather asked sharply.

The old man looked at them with a smile on his face, but did not make a sound.

"Hey! She asks you if you're ......"

"It's amazing, I didn't expect the Breeze Guild Elder to find this place one day. Hehehe. The old man said with a strange smile.

"Then please come with us, I think the Guild Alliance should have a lot to ask you."

"Hehehe. Very willing, very willing...... If you have what it takes to catch me. As he spoke, the puddle of dark green liquid at the doctor's feet still squirmed.

"Beware!" Heather reminded.

Then, the wriggling liquid began to rotate and coalesce, and soon formed a humanoid poisonous elemental more than two meters tall, standing in front of Yugari and the others.

"Then I'll go first, guys!" With that, the old man turned and walked towards the back door.

"Don't go, stop!" Miria immediately leapt at him with a scythe.

The poison elemental immediately stretched out a huge arm and swept towards Miria in the air. Hecis immediately raised his shield to intercept it, and white smoke immediately rose from the light brown tower shield. The powerful impact knocked Heatis and Miria back. At the same time, Brala also tried to pass through the ground. But the poisonous elemental's rapidly stretched other arm, blocking her way.

Blala picked up the tomahawk and roared away, and the arm of the poison elemental was immediately engulfed by the flames cast by the tomahawk, and it burned rapidly. Brala wanted to take this opportunity to rush over, but the burning flames were only momentarily bloomed and were eaten back by the regenerated arm. The massive arm then split into countless poison cones, blocking Blanla's path like hailstones. Blala had no choice but to retreat, giving up the idea of rushing over.

After landing on the ground, Miria immediately cast a frost crystal and rushed forward desperately.

"Watch me freeze you!" As she spoke, Miria frantically brandished her long-handled scythe, attacking the poisonous elemental in all directions like a storm. The long-handled scythe was mixed with a thick cold air, passing through the body of the poisonous element countless times, and as Miria's attack weakened, the body of the poisonous element gradually hardened, and finally was frozen into an ice sculpture.

However, just as they thought the battle was over, the ice sculpture suddenly cracked open as they walked past the ice sculpture. The venom that flew all over the sky immediately hit them like a net from heaven to earth, rising white smoke, overwhelmingly attacking them. Just as she was about to strike, Hecis cast her skill again, converging all of the poison elemental's attacks onto her shield. The shield that had been subjected to the massive corrosive attack immediately ignited a thick layer of white smoke, and there seemed to be a slight crack on the surface.

"It seems that this shield will not last long." Heather complained.

At this moment, the venom scattered around them gathered again, and a venom elemental that was intact stood in front of Yugari and the others again. Not only that, but in front of the surrounding walls, the green liquid in the glass containers also began to seep out, and a steady stream of poisonous elements gathered at the feet of the poisonous element. After absorbing the fresh blood, the poisonous element became even taller, almost touching the roof, and the color was much darker than before, and the smell emitted was even more foul and unpleasant.

Just as everyone was shocked, the huge poison element raised its huge fist, with the venom flying everywhere, and struck directly at Miria. Heather stepped forward and shielded Miria in front of her, the splatters of venom smearing onto the walls and ground around her, making a loud noise, and the white smoke rising with a pungent scent.

When Hecis blocked the Poison Elemental's attack, Miria took the opportunity to immediately rush to the Poison Elemental's approach.

"The last crystal, please make it." "Frost, Crystal, Ice World!" Miria shattered the last frost crystal she was carrying, and used all her strength to launch an even more frantic attack on the poison elemental. At this time, Brala also burned with blazing flames, and rushed up with a battle axe to help Miria contain the attack of the poisonous element.

Under Miria's countless blows, the poisonous element's actions gradually became sluggish again. It didn't take long for Miria to seal it in frost once more. "It's now! Cover it, Bella, attack with all your might! Miria shouted.

As a result, a sacred barrier immediately covered the poison element and the bula. At this moment, Brala's whole body burned even hotter flames, and she mustered up all her strength, and at the moment when the ice on the poisonous element's body cracked, she did her best, swung her battle axe, and roared, "Roar of the Flame, Red Dragon, Dragon!" ”

As Blanla's voice landed, the tornado-like flames mixed with huge multi-stage shockwaves roared and swept towards the ice that the poisonous element had just cracked. A deafening sound sounded inside the barrier, and in front of Brala, the churning flames and violent impact energy continued to merge and squeeze the space in front of him. After a while, as the mixed energy gradually receded, only Brala was left in the empty barrier. The poisonous element that was still standing in front of her just now had already been burned to ashes, and no trace could be found.

Seeing the powerful poisonous element being destroyed, everyone was ecstatic and ran to Blala's side. And Brala, who had used all her strength, was sweating profusely at this time, and her whole body fell weakly into Milia's arms.

"It doesn't matter, does it?!" Eugari shouted nervously.

"It's okay, don't worry." "It's just over-consumed, just take a good rest." I'll take care of her, and you'll go after the doctor." ”

Eugari then remembered the escaped doctor, and hurriedly followed Sithis out the back door of the room.

"Thank you." Miria said embarrassedly.

However, after a long time, when Miria saw Eugari and Heather returning dejected, she guessed that the doctor must have run away.

"Did you run away?" Miria asked.

"Hmm. I think they've been ready for a long time. The kind that can get out at any time. Yugari complained.

"But it's strange that you can't find a secret passage anywhere. How do they get in and out of the secret realm at any time to deliver the necessities of life? Could it be that there are other entrances here? Even if they report the situation here to the Guild Alliance, they shouldn't be able to do anything because it's in a place like Dream Shattered Ranch. Heather said to herself.

"I'll take care of your wounds first, and then we'll see if there are any valuable materials here that we can take back. But after all, this is the base of the revolutionary army, so I think it's better to leave as soon as possible, who knows what other organs are missing. Eugari suggested.

So, everyone took a break in the laboratory. Eugari helped them heal their wounds, and Miria followed Sithis to collect a lot of information, but most of it was related to academic research, and there was almost nothing related to the Apocalypse Revolutionary Army. By the time Blala had almost recovered, Eugaria and the others pressed the two captives back from the tunnel they had entered back to the entrance of the seal.

"I said you guys are really useless, I don't even know how to get in, I don't want to hide it." Along the way, Miria kept complaining.

"Not really, sir. I don't dare to hide it. We were locked in the carriage every time and came in with the cargo. The secrets of the organization will not be known to us at all. None of us have seen anything here, except for the Doctor and a captain. The captain will only come and send us in and out when we change shifts. We temporary workers don't know anything else, we just eat with our mouths. My lord! You're going to spare your life. The two captives kept pleading.

"They're right." "Over the years, the Guild Alliance has captured a lot of people from the revolutionary army, and basically the soldiers below don't know anything except the cadres. Their secrecy is very thorough. After that, it's good to hand them over to the Guild Alliance, and it's useless for us to keep them. ”

As the time approached mid-afternoon, Blana opened the seal of the cave again, and Yugari and the others walked out of the secret realm, and returned to the residence of the purple pupil according to the path they had come.

"Are you going back?" "When my shield is ready, we can go to my guild and get some rest." I haven't had time to entertain you yet. Come to me so far. ”

"Thank you very much. But no, we still have very important things to do, and we've already made an appointment with a friend, so we're going to leave tomorrow morning, so we need to rush back immediately. Yugari politely declined.

"That's right, we want to get that commission done quickly. Besides, I don't think you need to make that shield. With that, Miria took a large bag from Brala's hand and put it in front of Heath, "Let's make a better one out of these white magic crystals!" Enough to create a "rare" shield. ”

"That's not good, I ...... such a valuable thing"

"Nothing." Yugari hurriedly said, "If it weren't for Sister Hexis's help, we probably wouldn't have been able to get out a long time ago." Besides, we were going to go in and collect this, so if there's anything we can't take, you're welcome. ”

"Hehehe......" At this time, a strange laugh suddenly came from the stone house, and the purple pupil walked out slowly with a purple-black skeletal staff, "Isn't this the "rare level" equipment you dream of?" In pursuit of this, you don't know how many times you have approached me in the past few decades, and now that it is in front of you, why don't you want it? ”

"Because, this is ......," said Miria as soon as he was about to explain something, "and that's it, I have to hurry with Jiali and I won't pay you a chat." With that, he immediately pulled Yugari and ran in the direction of return.

"By the way, how old is she?"

"Thank you, and you'll be sure to come back to me next time." The cavern behind him resounded with the voice of Heatis thanking her.
