Chapter 13: The Departure of the Ember Bringer (Part II)
"When the time comes, is everyone tied up with ropes?"
"Okay"
"Okay"
“......”
"I'll start casting spells."
The arcane aura was distributed from the top of the mage's staff to everyone, and several of them floated, and then a second magic flash flashed, and they were all invisible.
Winetha couldn't see her companions, she couldn't see her own limbs, she only felt a pull at one end of the rope pulling her, and then the whole person flew in the direction of Naxxramas.
The team was led by the mage to the entrance to the sewers, where she was at the very end of the line. No one spoke during the whole process, and it was expected that any movement could be exposed to the gargoyles patrolling the sky.
As everyone slowly flew into the sewers, the effects of the levitation spells and invisibility spells disappeared.
"It's the same as I planned," the mage said, "and the next step is to explore as we were assigned."
Everyone looked at the environment together, the sewers were just over three people tall, the walls were covered with unknown moss, and at the lowest point was a green stream, which occasionally floated past the stumps and severed arms of some human or monster, dissolving into the skeleton remaining.
"It's full of stinks"
"It's hard to breathe"
"Poisonous?"
"It's supposed to be poisonous, but I've prepared a spell to deal with it" The mage cast an 'air cleansing spell' on everyone: "I also have a spell to increase necromancy, but I can only release it for Miss Winresa!" ”
After this set was released, the mage gasped a few breaths of relief, and the spells of more than a dozen people before and after had already hollowed out his body: "I want to take a break, Miss Wen Lesa?" ”
"Well, leave the avant-garde scout to me" Wen Leisha immediately responded, nodded with the other teammates, activated the magic on the cloak, entered the stealth state, and explored the way forward.
Wen Leisha shook off the group and walked some distance, and without finding traps or undead monsters, she left a safety mark on the wall to guide the group.
The detection of the undead that the mage had inflicted on her, coupled with her own inspiration, was as obvious as a kettle on the table a few hundred meters away, and their distribution was shown in her mind. The nearest undead are also more than a hundred meters above, which means that they are walking in the sewers more than a hundred meters deep.
She didn't know how long she had been sneaking in the main canal, and when Winetha found the exit, she didn't dare to go up easily, because the dense undead were scattered not far away, dense like the grain in a barn, filling the range of her perception.
She carefully adjusted her state, put her heartbeat and breathing at the slowest level, recalled the skills she had learned, and even her own shadow had to be hidden, using the method of splitting light to dodge, even if it was in a stealth state, she had to be cautious.
Quietly poking his head out, 'What are those?' Winnesa saw spider eggs piled up like a hill of reality. And on the ground, overhead, on the walls, the dense white cobwebs, countless small spiders crawling on these cobwebs, as if they could not see the intruder, coming and going, or lying on the spider silk to devour their food.
Winresa doesn't take a step forward until she finds the real danger.
'Where is it?' Wen Leisha closed her eyes and felt that the inspiration was like tentacles extending around, and there were no living objects in the consciousness of the dead, no sense of survival that normal creatures have, it was really like a cold corpse, but there was a feeling that it was a huge living thing.
'Hiding in the mountain-like spider eggs?' But we can't get around this place, there should be a passage behind the spider eggs. ’
Winetha watched as she retreated into the sewers, waiting for her teammates to come up. They were a little slower than Wen Leisa, as they had to wait for the mage to regain his strength. At a distance from the ground, Winresa told her companions what she had discovered.
"It's like a predator hiding in the shadows, and if you go rashly, you will be prey," said the mage, "and we should burn them all with fire." ”
The mage is like the brain of this team, and everyone listens to him. I saw him take out a few bottles of alchemy oil.
"Miss Winnessa, can you sprinkle them on the spider eggs you said?"
"Yes."
"Okay, let's do this......"
Five alchemy bottles were suddenly thrown out of the sewers, and Wen Leisha pulled her bow twice, shattering them just above the hill-like spider eggs, and the brown oil rained down on them. Immediately, a fireball followed.
'Boom' the oil mixed with the air exploded, and the fire burned brightly. Spider silk, spider eggs, and living spiders are burned like paper in this instantaneous heat, and "Ping Pong Ping Pong" brings out a series of follicle bursting sounds.
"The monster hiding inside is about to come out," the mage shouted.
Darien, along with the dwarves and the troll paladins, screamed and rushed out of the small waterway, two long swords and a battle axe, standing sideways.
Suddenly, a cloud of white slurry came out of the flames! The viscous liquid quickly solidified, and behind the slime, a large spider with yellow black thorns pounced. At this time, everyone realized that the white slime had condensed into spider silk! Darien: They didn't have time to dodge, they didn't think that there was a monster with the ability to spin silk quickly.
Do you want to get entangled in spider silk? Just as they were thinking this, an arrow of flame shot out of the small channel again, striking the cobweb, and the fire magic exploded again, and everything burned into nothingness.
"What are you waiting for" the mage chanted a spell in his mouth, and the aura of the acceleration technique fell, and everyone increased their speed by a third.
The three of Darion jumped to the sides, and the big spider hit the entrance to the sewer, and the beast's head reached into it, and saw Winnesa and the mage who remained inside, and every bristle on their bodies was straining, desperately arching inward, trying to catch the two prey inside.
Two huge ivory-like teeth dripping with poison, and eight eyes like eight black light bulbs.
At this time, the venom sprayed like a column of water, and the mage had his body pressed against the wall early in the morning to let the venom fall into the air. And Wen Leisha jumped backwards three times in a row, and the bow and arrow in her hand were pulled out eight times, and the eight sharp arrows were aimed at the eight eyes, and all of them were inserted into it.
At the same time, behind the Great Spider, Darion raised his weapon, the dwarf went to cut off the spider's left leg, the troll paladin cut off the right leg, and Darion aimed at the belly like a bulging balloon, and saw a dark hole in it, and he stabbed it with his sword.
The big spider screamed, and it raised its head to get out, but its body was stuck in the sewer entrance, and it couldn't go back or out.
The moment the sword pierced, disgusting juice splashed out, and before Darian had time to wipe the sticky material from his face, he clenched the hilt of the sword and stirred it again and again, and the power of the Holy Light's punishment began to destroy the internal organs of the great spider like a scythe. The dwarves and trolls cut off several of its legs, and immediately turned around and slashed its flanks with their great axes and swords.
"It's dying, let's do it," the dwarf shouted.
Wen Leisha only heard the sound of chopping meat in the sewer, no matter how strong the big spider was, it couldn't hold on, and after a while, it hung its head weakly, and could no longer move.
It was only after the teammates outside removed the spider's body that Winnesa and the mage came out of the sewers. The plan went smoothly and no one was hurt.
"What should we do next."
Winetha heard the dwarven uncle ask the mage.
"Darian, can you sense where your father is?" The mage turned to ask Darian.
"Well, I can feel it, it should be in this direction." Darien was pointing to a wall.
Taking advantage of the time they spoke, Wen Leisha used her inspiration to look at her teammates again, the ink was so thick that it could not be dissolved that the dead air had surrounded them, and the uneasiness in her heart became stronger and stronger.
