Chapter 167: Crimson
After finishing the secret conversation with Natasha, Unas called the night moon to ask about the druid, and got the good news: Oak Leaf had already sent a spell signal for emergency assembly two days ago, and it was believed that within half a month, the other four groups of night elves would be able to come one by one, and then they would have to solve the trouble of the purple-robed people.
This was a burden and an opportunity to level up, and the two discussed some details before returning to the group, except for a few mages who were still discussing in whispers, most of them were recuperating to deal with the enemies that might appear next.
The black smoke in the cave quickly settled and dissipated, through the vision of the burning man, everyone got a glimpse of the whole picture of the big hole from the water mirror, the area the size of half a football field was an irregular triangle, the gravel and crystal fragments were mixed and spread all over the ground, and the cave wall was covered with jet-black pits, which were the traces left by the crystal explosion, but there were still many fire crystals emitting a mild red light densely distributed on the higher cave walls.
And on the top of the cave almost fifteen or sixteen meters above the ground, a huge crimson diamond-shaped crystal attracted everyone's attention, and Unas didn't have time to admire, only to hear Angela next to him exclaim: "Fire demon!" ”
Looking carefully in the direction she pointed, she saw that the snake-shaped monster was coiled next to a cluster of crystals about ten meters from the ground, and the red scales all over it made it difficult to find it mixed in the red light.
"Don't act rashly, see what it wants to do!" Unas commanded.
The fire demon moved slowly on the stone wall, and it didn't seem to want to alarm the fire man below, and it looked like it was heading straight for the diamond-shaped crystal on the top of the cave.
"It wants to take the Crimson Diamond! My lord, give the order to attack, you must stop it! Huoye shouted to the garrison officer with a look of urgency.
"Crimson diamonds? Does that diamond-shaped crystal have a name? Unas raised his hand to signal him to calm down, "Although the black smoke has dissipated, the temperature inside has not yet dropped, I don't want to be burned to death as soon as I enter, and the eight fire men inside are not necessarily the opponents of the fire demon, wait a minute." ”
"But it's a crimson diamond!" Huoye shouted excitedly, and everyone looked at him suspiciously, even Duane and Angela had never heard of this name.
The elven mage, who has lived for more than three hundred years, is probably the most knowledgeable person here, and he excitedly and quickly popularized science for everyone: "Legend has it that it is one of several treasures that appeared when the fire source realm was born, containing the power of the origin of fire, it is the treasure of the fire demon king, since the fire demon king disappeared, it has disappeared, it turned out to be exiled to Azeroth, I suspect that the large fire element crystal ore here is infected by the energy it emits." ”
"So the value of the Crimson Diamond is worth the entire Fire Crystal Mine?" Unas was deeply skeptical.
"Far more than that, it's almost an inexhaustible source of energy, and with it, the blood elves can all be saved!" Huo Ye couldn't help but burst into tears when he thought that his compatriots who had suffered so much would have a chance to be saved immediately.
What a nerdy fool, he doesn't understand the reason for making a fortune in a muffled voice, and the more precious he blows this stone, the harder it will be for you to get it, just by looking at the sparkle in Duane and Angela's eyes, they also covet such a gem.
While everyone was talking, the fire demon had crawled to a close distance from the Crimson Diamond, and was using a snake gun to pry the earth and rocks around the gem.
"Without further ado, let's go in at once," Angela quickly said to Unas, "It's hot inside, but I can open an ice barrier and never let everyone die of heat." ”
Duan also said: "Don't let that monster snatch the gem, my teleportation circle is ready!" ”
It seems that it is a bit early to consider the issue of benefit distribution now, and then talk about it first, Unas waved his hand: "All the combatants immediately enter the magic circle!" ”
The scheduled candidates soon all stood in the magic circle laid by Duane on the ground, everyone only felt that the air was cold, Angela opened the ice barrier in advance, and the white inverted light bowl enveloped everyone, Duane then shouted the incantation, the green light flashed, and everyone in the magic circle disappeared in an instant.
The next moment, everyone reappeared in the underground cave, Unas experienced spatial teleportation for the second time, there was no discomfort, the protection of the ice barrier made people not feel the deadly heat, and quickly glanced at the surrounding environment, they were teleported to the center of the cave, and the fire demon was above their heads.
Without his orders, various long-range attacks summoned the enemies to the top of the cave, and the eight fire elementals also climbed up the rock to besiege the imprisoned fire demon together.
The sudden appearance of enemies and attacks caught the fire demon off guard, but its reaction was amazingly fast, and its thick snake tail jerked the stone wall, and its whole body ejected away, dodging most of the long-range attacks, and it rose and fell on the cave wall a few times, and actually disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.
Angela immediately took out a purple bead and shouted, "True Eye! ”
Purple light shone from the beads, and every stone wall was swept through, but the fire demon was still not found, and Angela immediately reminded: "It's not stealth!" ”
Duane continued, "There are no spell fluctuations and spatial shocks, it's still here!" ”
"Maybe it's a chameleon-like disguise, the cave is so big, don't look for it anymore, all climb to the top and dig for the crimson diamond," Unas was inspired by it, "I don't believe it will watch the gem be taken by us!" ”
The fire demon had already loosened a lot of the stone walls around the gem before, and several fire men surrounded it and opened a few openings, seeing that the gem was about to be taken out.
At this time, a cluster of crystals on the left cave wall suddenly began to glow violently, this kind of scene is familiar to everyone, and Huo Ye exclaimed: "Oh no! It activates those crystals! ”
"Everybody, get down!" Unas quickly opened the shield of the Holy Blessing and raised the large shield at the same time, and the Brass Hammer brothers and Cruze also raised their shields together, and the barrier formed by the four of them protected everyone behind them.
With a loud bang, his eardrums were almost shattered, countless crystal fragments turned into fiery bullets, the steel shield was smashed and jumped, and the violent shockwave almost knocked Unas over his head, and he fell to one knee in an instant to avoid being knocked down.
The dwarven brothers around him were stable and held on to this round of explosions, but the orc warrior was not so lucky, he was completely overturned and fell on his back, countless fragments pierced into his body, and he fell into a dying state on the spot, and also crushed the two young men lying down behind him.
The two female priests immediately got up to treat him, and it seemed that he was okay to save his life, while the others were not injured due to the fact that they had a tank in front of them in time to lie down.
But now is not the time to rejoice, this explosion activates seven or eight fire crystals again, and a new round of chain explosions is about to start again!
