Volume 2: The Shadow of the Wailing Cave (Remastered) Chapter 44: Into the Wailing Cave (2)
With the guidance of the Fire Blade Shaman, Yu Bin and the others easily found the way to the Dream Stone. The name Dream Stone was heard by Thassarian from Anna Codra, and it is said that it took Nalarex several months to choose this place, and the entrance to the Emerald Dream was just above the Dream Stone, and the Grand Druid could enter the Emerald Dream with minimal effort and channel the dream power that reflected the primordial world into reality.
The Fangs didn't have guards here, because the power leaking from the Emerald Dream would quickly trap them in the dream, and no Fangs druid could hold out for more than a minute except for the three of Cowbrien, in which case arranging guards would be a suicidal option to weaken the Fangs Druids.
But that doesn't mean that these followers of Nalarex aren't a little vigilant, and since living objects can't get out of dreams here, they use inanimate things.
So Yu Bin had to face all kinds of traps. The types of these traps encompass almost all the possibilities that a thief can encounter, and the combination of the elves' ingenuity and whimsy makes Yu Bin have to be deeply admired.
But it doesn't make sense!
Canos proved to Yu Bin with practical actions what is one force and three meetings, and what is power that determines everything!
Chop it all the way with an axe! At the same time that the trap was destroyed, Yu Bin was sure that the ground and rock wall had at least been enlarged by this rough orc blacksmith.
"This is good news, indicating that the Lord of Nightmares has not been here yet!" Yu Bin can only comfort himself from the good side.
Stepping into the last underground cavern, the bright light almost blinded Yu Bin's eyes, these lights came from countless torches planted in the rock wall, and the light reflected on the surface of the water, reflecting the entire cave as if it were daytime.
In the middle of the bottomless pool stands a large square rock, nearly three meters above the water, and a man can be seen lying on the rock.
Obviously, this is the Dream Stone! The space above the rocks constantly surfaced with all kinds of inexplicable visions and auroras, which were the power that allowed the Emerald Dream to leak into reality, and it was also the nightmare that the Grand Druid was experiencing.
"How are we going to wake him up? It looks like he's sleeping he's sleeping heavily, and I don't think just two screams will get him out of bed! ”
"Your Excellency Shaman, do you have any suggestions?" Yu Bin set his sights on the only spellcaster in this group of people, who specializes in magic, and they are okay when it comes to fighting, but if you let them study this kind of magic thing, then there is only hehe.
"Although I have not been in contact with the druids, we shamans sometimes let ourselves sink into dreams, looking for opportunities to communicate with our ancestors." The Fireblade Shaman scanned his surroundings as he said, "I think the principles of the two are the same, but I need time, and it would be foolish to rush into this powerful man's dream. ”
Yu Bin nodded, feeling that what the shaman said made sense, so he and Canos took the orcs together and began to inspect the area, while the fireblade shaman sat down, sensing the elemental spirits here, hoping to find a way to awaken Nalarex through the revelation of the elemental spirits.
Yu Bin had never been able to understand what the elemental power of the Entagri world was. Say they're something like oxygen, right? But they have a will of their own! Say they're a kind of microorganism that lives in the air, right? They are almost ubiquitous, and they have their own unique attributes, some of which are completely opposite.
In the end, Yu Bin felt that the elemental power of the Entagri world was likely to be a kind of radiation, different elements were different radiation sources, each radiation source was able to think like a living being, and had its own preferences, and the spellcaster was to create himself into a similar radiation source through some means, and affect the radiation in the surrounding environment and space through resonance, thus producing various effects.
But there is still an obvious problem with this interpretation, and that is the two things of time and space!
Unlike the explicit elemental power of shadow or fire, time and space are more complex and difficult to understand, for the player, up and down left and right are space, yesterday and tomorrow are time, but for some powerful mages, time and space are also a form of energy, through specific spells, they can warp space, and they can also travel through time.
So Yu Bin finally had to give up the search for elemental power, and instead honestly relied on swords and armor to protect himself. There is no genius brain in this kind of thing like a mage, so it's better not to touch it.
These are the mental activities that occurred when Yu Bin discovered that the Fire Blade Shaman relied on communication with the elemental spirits to find a way to awaken Nalarex!
You have to understand that for a good socialist young man who has believed in materialism since he was a child and grew up listening to "practice is the only criterion for testing truth", this is simply enough to subvert the three views!
It's not scientific!
It's magical!
Fortunately, Bin had already reshaped the three views once in his previous life, which made him very strong in this regard. The Fireblade Shaman said that the elemental spirit had told him how to awaken Nararex, so Yu Bin acted on the shaman's instructions without any doubt, and set up a simple awakening circle with Canos.
The circle is really a good thing, you can use the circle for teleportation, you can use the circle for transforming corpses, and you can use the circle to even wake people up!
It's no wonder that in previous lives, there were a group of players who called themselves the Circle Sect and painted all kinds of circles on themselves, fantasizing about fulfilling their dreams of becoming a spellcaster in this way.
A simple awakening circle was quickly arranged, although it was rudimentary, but the Fire Blade Shaman did not use any particularly high-end technology to awaken Nalarex, the principle of this circle was very simple, by focusing on the elemental power in this space, a controllable elemental storm was formed, thus breaking the balance here, forcing the entrance to the Emerald Dream to be temporarily closed. Without the power of the Emerald Dream, Nalarex was able to wake up from a nightmare.
Yu Bin understood it as "pumping quilts, opening windows, and spanking", driving away the culprit of the Jade Dream, which caused Nalarex to sleep, and then using a magic storm to paste him in the face!
What is the reason why I feel very emotional?
Everything was ready, and the Fireblade Shaman sat down in the circle, ready to communicate with the elemental spirits for a carnival.
But Yu Bin always felt that all this was too smooth, and it was incredible.
So when the dull footsteps came from outside the cave, Yu Bin realized that his crow's beak had appeared again.
Canos and Thassarian immediately took up a slightly narrow area with their orc soldiers as a line of defense against the enemy. Compared to the worried Thassarian, Canos and the firebladed orcs were not too worried, they believed that their courage and fearlessness could defeat any enemy, and if they couldn't, it must be their own lack of courage!
This is how a certain Sword Master of the Warsong Clan killed an Abyss Lord, which was originally an accident caused by inferior armor, but with the continuous praise of the orcs, it has become a powerful proof of the supremacy of courage!
The owner of the footsteps is the fanged druids, the hordes of fanged druids, and the leaders of these fanged druids are none other than Cobryen and Pisas, who should have fallen off the cliff!
"How is that possible! I've seen you two devoured by the Lord of Nightmares! Thassarian exclaimed, even thinking that everything that had happened before on the Cliff of Eternal Life was an illusion, a dream created by the Lord of Nightmares.
"No, don't be fooled by these guys, they've become puppets of nightmares, minions of darkness!" A female voice came from behind the rocks in the middle of the waterhole, followed by Anna Cordra and a few fanged druids who still retained their sanity, "That bastard who calls himself the Lord of Nightmares has corrupted their souls with the power of the Abyss, and now, it is not my people who appear before you, but nightmares that deserve to be destroyed!" ”
Canos moved his neck and said indifferently: "I don't care if these guys are alive or dead, I'm going to turn them dead anyway, if one time is not enough, then twice, three times, more times!" ”
Under the control of the Lord of Nightmares, the puppet fanged druids hissed hoarsely from their throats and pounced on the orc soldiers led by Canos, while Cowbrien transformed into a giant black wind snake and flew towards the rock platform in the middle of the waterhole.
Yu Bin wanted to ask Thassarian to go to the rock platform to help, but before he could say anything, a dazzling lightning bolt shot out from Anna Kodela's palm, twitching the huge wind snake lightning that Cobline had transformed, and the flight had to be interrupted, and the huge body smashed into the waterhole.
However, this is not the end, but the beginning, and one after another lightning chains flew out of Anna Cordla's hands, pumping the overboard wind snake to death, and it was clear that poor Cobline didn't know who could conduct electricity!
Over there, Professor Yang was doing electrotherapy to treat Cowbrien's "brain wreck", while here, Canos single-handedly blocked the mad Pisas, and Thassarian was the pillar to lead those orc soldiers to fight with the rushing fanged druids.
Even if he gained the power of the Lord of Nightmares, the berserker Pisas was no match for Canos, and compared to the orcs, the so-called warriors of the elves were almost the same as ordinary orcs, and Yu Bin even found that even the fireblade shaman who sat on the ground to communicate with the elemental spirit looked much stronger than Pisas!
The situation was at a stalemate, and although Anna Cordla's lightning chain was endless, Cowbryan still tried his best to approach the rock platform, and the surface of his dark skin had cracked, but it could not affect his movement in the slightest. Anna Cordera was right, this guy was just a puppet with the appearance of Cobline, and he couldn't even call it a creature, because the cracked skin was not flesh or internal organs, but a black mass of flesh made of unknown objects, like an elaborate stuffed toy, filled with the most disgusting garbage.
But time was on Yu Bin's side, and the appearance of these fanged druids was undoubtedly to prevent Nalarex from awakening, and over time, the circle of the Fire Blade Shaman would take effect, eventually awakening the sleeping Nalarex.
Just when everyone thought that this situation continued and would end in their victory, the Lord of Nightmares hidden behind the scenes told them the truth, not to underestimate any of the conspirators!
A figure no smaller than the wind snake incarnated by Cobryant quickly floated up from the bottom of the pool, and with a bang, a strange creature jumped out and stood in front of Yu Bin.
Even with Yu Bin's psychological endurance, he couldn't accept the existence of the creature in front of him, it seemed to be a species that challenged various aesthetic limits, under a big head were two thin short legs less than half a meter high, two bamboo-like arms held a spear made of wood and stone, his back had a row of twisted spikes, his body seemed to have merged with the head, I don't know if it was a large scale on the chin or abdomen.
"Be careful, that's Mutanus the Devourer! When Mr. Nalarex found out about this entrance, the fish-man had already taken over the cave, and I teamed up with Cowbryan to expel him, but I didn't expect him to be hiding in this place! ”
Is this a fish-man? Yu Bin couldn't believe his eyes, the thing in front of him that made him sick to his stomach couldn't see the appearance of a fishman at all, and Yu Bin couldn't even believe how this guy could hunt!
It seems that it was the Lord of Nightmares who twisted the poor creature and turned him into this pathetic form alive!
Mutanus the Devourer let out a purring threat at Yu Bin, it was obvious that he had not been eroded by the power of the abyss, but because of the influence of the Lord of Nightmares and the pollution of the dark power, Yu Bin's soul touch could still sense the strength of Mutanus the Devourer, a mutant fishman with a sixth-order cap!
Yu Bin has slaughtered many enemies, including many fishmen, and the fishmen of the Rotting Soul Swamp were even killed by him at one point and were almost extinct. With the help of those "textbooks", Yu Bin is very clear about the weaknesses and physiological structure of the fish-people.
But you tell me where this thing looks like a fishman! What about his gills? What about his tail fin? What about his internal organs?
"That's a fish-man! Use your imagination! Anna Codra casually shot a lightning lash and slammed the wind snake that had been clinging to the edge of the platform out again.
Big sister, are you serious? This doesn't match your image!
Yu Bin scolded Anna Kodra in his stomach and greeted him, there was no way, behind him was the magic circle, which was the most critical point of this operation, and he couldn't let this ugly thing out of the sky touch it!
