Chapter 316: Threat
When Gunther arrived at the lake, he found that the enemy was already guarding the area, and he wanted to go into the lake to mobilize his men, but the red dragon hovering on the lake was a hurdle that could not be crossed, so he ordered the seven-headed lizard under the deep water to attack the red dragon, trying to take advantage of the chaos to enter the lake.

The seven-headed lizard's seduction almost succeeded, but unfortunately it was stopped by the humans on the shore, but fortunately, the humans and the dragon seemed to have infighting, and after a while, the biggest threat, the red dragon, actually flew away.
He resisted the idea of immediately attacking the small group of people on the shore, and beckoned a one-horned python swimming to the shallow water, and if the python attracted the attention of the enemy, he could take the opportunity to sneak into the lake.
The result was almost a failure, but Guntel was still an underestimated enemy, and the Annihilation Arrow killed his beloved mount, and the paladin almost caught up with him, but fortunately several water monsters in the lake caught up in time to meet him, and scared them back.
The lich descended into the deep water, where more than a hundred strange water monsters escorted him, and Guntel quickly swirled downstream, and soon reached the gate of the biological research institute - a large hole at the foot of the hill at the bottom of the lake, and seven lizards were guarding the entrance of the cave.
Guntel secretly ordered the Swamp Lord to be on his guard, and then made his way into the Great Cavern and reached his destination through the winding waterways.
He emerged from the water and climbed up to a small shoal, then chanted a secret spell, and the magic door in the shallows opened.
The guards at the biological institute were quickly assembled, and for the first time Guntel carefully counted the number of people, 173 in all.
These guards are actually his experiments, and they are also divided into several categories, the largest one is the dragon human guard, a total of 79, but the length is also a little different, some are dragon head human body, and some are dragon head lizard body.
While Gunther studied the longevity and strong vitality of the dragon, he also wanted to create a powerful basic infantry, so he used the dragon's bloodline a lot.
The second major branch is the humanoids, their main body still looks humanoid, but there are more or less mutations in arms, feet, facial features, and even half of the body, between animals and humans, Rose Byrne belongs to this type.
The rest were a motley of mutants of various races, including the leader of the entire guard, a monster that Guntel had accidentally pieced together from centaurs and minotaurs.
Looking at the strong team in front of him, Gunther's confidence returned a little, these guards will easily destroy the enemies on the shore when they rush out, but it is still unknown whether they will be able to recapture the mage tower guarded by the dragon and Shadra.
Gunther's heart moved, and an evil smile appeared on his withered skeletal face, and he thought of another good idea.
……
After being smuggled into the lake by the lich, everyone on the shore fell into anxiety, especially the watchers, whose fellow Night Elves were below, and the purple-robed people were cornered and didn't know what to do.
Unas was mentally prepared to be threatened, and if he was Gunther, he would definitely use the hostages in his hands to intimidate his opponent.
The twin moons in the sky began to deflect, and it was already the second half of the night, and the team of Red Dragon and Marcus had not yet arrived, but there was a sudden movement on the lake.
The crowd, who had always been on high alert, immediately noticed a small figure wrapped in blisters floating up from the water, and many ranged weapons were immediately aimed at the figure.
"Don't act rashly," called Pereira with a raised hand, "it looks like a child." ”
The blister completely surfaced, and there was actually a purple-skinned Night Elf girl sitting inside, who looked to be only the age of a human child of eight or nine years old, with her hands tied behind her back, a clump of rags in her mouth, and a slight struggle in the blister.
Yeyue turned around, "My lord, what should I do?" ”
It could be seen that she wanted to save the child, but she was afraid of a trap, so she was so confused that she asked a question that she would never ask.
"Be careful, get her ashore first." Unas also had a lot of worries in his heart, but these elves would not be willing to fish the child ashore.
Everyone threw the noose and slowly pulled the blisters back to the shore, and the elf child cried out excitedly when she saw so many compatriots, and the tears were almost spurting outward, if her mouth was not blocked, her cry must have been amazing.
Everyone, look at me, I look at you, they didn't dare to step forward for a while, Unas punctured the blisters with a spear, and then picked the cloth out of the little girl's mouth, and the other party really cried loudly.
"Help... Help me..."
Her legs were limp and weak, her hands were tied and she was unable to support her side on the shore, and the appearance of crying was heartbreaking, for some reason, Unas suddenly remembered the story of the three dozen white bone spirits, could this child be the white bone spirit released by Gunther?
Everyone observed for a while, but they really couldn't see the threat, Yeyue stepped forward to straighten the little girl, cut the rope, and comforted: "It's okay, child, what's your name?" ”
"Arya-Darkstar," the little girl choked.
"Arya, I'm Wendy Nightmoon the Watcher, and you're now guarded by us, so you don't have to worry about anything."
The elven girl's eyes lit up when she heard the title of Watcher, which was the most elite unit of the Night Elves, and she was immediately relieved.
When the girl's mood stabilized a little, Unas glanced at the night moon, and the female elf nodded and asked, "Alya, how did you escape?" ”
"Run? I don't know," the girl suddenly panicked, "it's dark, I don't see anything, they, the bad guys, give me something very bitter, I don't know what it is." ”
"Open your mouth." Yeyue said eagerly.
The girl subconsciously opened her mouth obediently, Yeyue observed it through the moonlight, and then put her finger into the girl's mouth and stained it with a little green liquid, she was not afraid of bad breath, and immediately put it under her nose and smelled it, "I can't tell what it is, but it's very pungent, it must not be a good thing." ”
Natasha, who knows a little bit of medicine, was about to step forward to check the girl's body, but the other party suddenly began to spasm, and Yeyue was startled and hurriedly used first aid.
But the girl's trembling showed no signs of stopping, her mouth began to open and close, and the words that came out were devoid of tone and emotion, "Get out of my forest, get out of my mage tower, or you'll be ready to take on more corpses!" ”
It was obvious that the purple-robed man was speaking through the girl's mouth, and after she repeated these words a few times, she remained motionless, and Natasha checked it, shook her head, and confirmed the girl's death.
Everyone was enraged, and even Natasha, who had always been calm as ice, clenched her trembling fists, trying to suppress the urge to scold.
Holding the girl's corpse, Yeyue roared angrily at the sky, screaming at the lake, "Demon who went to hell, I will break you into ten thousand pieces!" ”
Unas suppressed his anger, anger was useless now, and he was just about to speak to calm everyone's emotions, but the girl's body changed again.
"Zombie!" Someone screamed, "Night Moon, put down her corpse!" ”
I saw that the skin of the corpse was darkening at a rate visible to the naked eye, and the girl's eyes bulged outward, and it looked like it was likely to burst open.
For the first time, Unas saw the panic on Yeyue's face, the female elf was not afraid of the corpse contagion, but the extreme helplessness of not wanting to discard the girl's corpse and not knowing what to do.
Unas's chest was clogged in a panic, and he didn't have time to do confidential work at this time, so he rushed forward and said, "Quickly put her flat on the ground, I'm going to cast a spell and give it a try, maybe it's too late!" ”
Yeyue was stunned for a moment, there was no time to be surprised, and quickly put the girl down, Natasha immediately understood what the garrison was going to do, and hurriedly shouted: "Everyone is on alert, the adult's spell casting process should not be disturbed!" ”
Everyone saw the girl die with their own eyes, and they couldn't help but wonder in their hearts: Can this be saved? But thinking of the paladin's miracle of reviving the Oak Master, they all obediently surrounded him.
Unas immediately released redemption to the girl, and at this time, he couldn't care about the corpse or not, so he could only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor.
The golden ball of light rolled on the corpse, and as the light cluster cycled round and round, the girl's skin gradually became shiny, and the eyes that were about to burst returned to their original positions.
Night Moon's eyes changed from anxiety to surprise, and finally looked at the paladin's eyes full of adoration, the human who had led them all the way had a greater weight in her mind.
Finally, when the spell was over, the little girl's chest rose and fell again, and it was obvious that she was alive, and Yeyue hurriedly carried her to the campfire, lest the cold water of the lake make her weak and sick.
"What a miracle this is!"
"Your Excellency deserves to be blessed by the Holy Light!"
……
Everyone was amazed, and they did not hesitate to praise the words, but Unas regretted it a little in his heart, this time the resurrection technique seemed to be exposed, but looking at the smile on Yeyue's face and the little girl who was restored, he felt that it was worth it.
"Now is not the time to be happy, I can only use this magic once a day, and if Guntel sends another girl, I will be helpless."
Hearing this, the crowd immediately calmed down, and the situation did not allow them to celebrate.
"What now? We are going to death when we go into the water! ”
"We can only negotiate for a while, Gunther has hostages, I also have his Horcruxes, and the two sides have bargaining chips with each other, so they can bargain."
Unas walked to the shore and shouted at the lake, "Lord Gunther, I am the paladin of the Silver Dawn, Unas Raugard, and I have no enmity with you, how about we talk?" I don't want to see any more sacrifices! ”
The lake was as quiet as ever, and Unas shouted five or six times in a row, and then waited for a response, unbeknownst to him, the lich under the lake was in ecstasy.
When Guntel returned to the institute, he sent a small and inconspicuous water monster to float to observe the enemies on the shore, so he was able to see Unas rescuing the elven girl on the shore.
This is the resurrection technique he has always dreamed of!
If he could combine this resurrection technique with his physical resurrection technique, it would be possible for him to realize his dream of becoming a living person again!
The excitement made his whole body tremble, and for him, the paladin was the most precious thing in the world at this time, and he had to grab it.
His original plan was to stall for time, as he felt that his current strength was not enough to retake the Mage Tower, so he needed time to create more powerful men.
The prisoners in the institute are ready-made raw materials, and he can use an emergency catalyst to mutate all the prisoners into powerful monsters, with the side effect of being that they lose most of their lifespan and intelligence.
After completing the mutation of more than 300 prisoners and uniting the original nearly 200 elite guards, he was sure to take the Mage Tower.
The elf girl was specially put up to intimidate the other party, so he was reluctant to poison more prisoners to death in vain, and if he wanted to die, he had to make full use of it.
But he didn't expect that the harvest was far beyond his imagination, and the thing he dreamed of was right in front of him!
He immediately abandoned his original plan and ordered all the guards and water monsters to rush out to capture alive the paladin who held the secret of resurrection.
Unas didn't expect that what was waiting for was not Gunther's microphone, but countless water arrows, but fortunately, the army of water monsters had already disturbed the lake unpeacefully, and everyone sensed the danger in advance, and retreated to hide under a small hill not far from the shore of the lake, and the water arrows did not hurt anyone.
Some amphibious monsters have actually started to land, and there are all kinds of strong monsters wrapped in water bubbles that emerge from the lake.
"Dragonman!"
"Monty Python!"
"What kind of monster is that? How is it a combination of the upper body of the minotaur and the lower body of the centaur, these two races are mortal enemies. ”
Everyone kept exclaiming, Unas only felt inexplicable, he politely invited the other party to come up to negotiate, how could it become like a full-scale war, could it be that Guntel wanted to come out in person? So put on a show of pomp and circumstance to increase the confidence of the negotiations?
This time he had only half guessed right, and Gunther had indeed come up himself - such an important prey had to be done with all his might, but not to negotiate, but to capture him alive as a guinea pig.
All kinds of hideous and terrifying monsters were assembled on the shore, and a phantus appeared in the center of the lake, which was not an entity at first glance, and Gunther's cold voice sounded, "Paladin, if you are willing to surrender, I will never hurt you, let me tell you, you are my most precious treasure!" ”
Burst! Unas almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, this bastard zombie, actually dared to humiliate him in public.
Although Lao Tzu is indeed loved by everyone in Yushu Linfeng, it is definitely not this kind of rotten dried corpse that has no taste at first glance, it is simply disgusting.
"Gunther, don't forget that your life guard is still in my possession, I'll destroy it now, and let you know what happened to me if you insult me!"
"You dare!"
Resurrection is just around the corner, the integrity of the soul is the most important link, if one of the three Horcruxes is destroyed, Gunther's soul will not be complete, which creates a great obstacle to resurrection, and he will not allow this to happen.
"If you dare to destroy my Horcruxes, I will order all the hostages to be killed at once!" Gunther's threat was like substance, "On the contrary, Night Elves, if you give me this human paladin, I will release all elves unconditionally!" ”
