Chapter 119: The Deepest
"Why, Gloridon?" Koto blinked suspiciously, "Are you scared?" ”
"I don't think that's what Gloleiden meant." Thea's emotional intelligence was obviously much higher than that of the upright dwarf, and she immediately helped explain.
"But he said he could only take us here?" The sluggish-headed dwarven warrior remained puzzled, "So aren't we companions?" Companions should act together and work together to overcome difficulties, as the king of the clan and the priest of the goddess had always taught me when I was on the plateau. ”
"Maybe the old gentleman wants to say something else." Stone Fist reminded him, "And we should be quiet and listen now." ”
"Yes." Raven Bird nodded in agreement with the half-orc monk's opinion, and sneered with a poisonous mouth, "It can be seen that the golem with a long brain is probably a little smarter than the stump in the tin can." ”
"Trees... Dun'er? Kotto froze for a second and thought, "Hey, poetess, I can tell you're making fun of me this time!" You say I'm a tree stump! ”
"Got a quicker reaction? Well, you're a clever stump now. ”
"I don't care if you think I'm clever or not! You'd better call me by my name, or call me a warrior! ”
"Okay stump, no problem stump."
"Ahhh You did it on purpose, you must mean it! ”
Koto stared at the two beads in his eyes into a round shape, and looked up a little with a frenzied expression at Miss Drow Poet, who was taller than him, and raised the hammer in his hand to make a feint gesture, as if to say, "If you dare to play tricks on me like this, the hammer in my hand will stick to your face!" ", trying to demonstrate with this.
Of course, this dwarven warrior with a sense of justice in his heart, despite his intellectual shortcomings, would never turn his hand at his companions because of such a small joke. The raven's ridicule was sometimes a little harsh, but he felt that Miss Poet was just a thorn in her tongue, and she probably didn't say it to hurt herself.
Stonefist watched the interaction between Koto and the Raven Sparrow, looked up at the vault of the road, and sighed and said the golem with a long brain...... Well, at least that sounds a little more than the Greenskin Golem.
Urs read the look on Glolen's face, combined with the experience and memories of his previous life, and quickly realized the approximate reason why the old thief stopped, and then signaled everyone not to make trouble, and then asked Glolen: "Because it's going to be there?" ”
"That's right. From here, we continue through a straight and safe section of the road and we will reach the deepest part of the ruins. Gloryden nodded at Urs, "And I'd better start here, keeping a certain distance from everyone and following behind the group, so that the shadow dragon doesn't spot me at the first moment of battle." ”
"It's a smart choice." Urs agreed with his judgment, "So you're going to hide yourself well, and then we'll help you attract the attention of the shadow dragon and win you the chance to use the magic scroll?" ”
"After all, the wisdom of the dragons and their cunning should not be underestimated." The old thief smiled helplessly, "And I think my ability to act is more reliable than yours. This is not unfounded hubris, but the most sound tactic. The magic scrolls that Lord Castle Lord has given us are best left to me to use, whether it's to satisfy my selfish wish or to increase the odds of victory for all of us. ”
After speaking, he paused, the five fingers of his right hand clenched into a fist, and his thumb pressed against the knuckle of his middle finger to clasp the earth-gray metal worn on his hand, the Stalker Ring, and continued after a while: "Of course, if you want to change your plans temporarily, I will obey your orders. It's your team, and it's up to you to make the arrangements. ”
The tone of the old man's voice was as flat as usual when it was serious. Urs stared at the pair of gray eyes in Groleiden's eye sockets, as if he saw two invisible flames burning in his eyes, and there was some kind of inevitable obsession hidden under the calm surface.
Then, the young man nodded: "We all believe in you." ”
"Thank you." In addition to the invisible flames, the old man's eyes showed sincere gratitude, and then he handed the glowing stone in his hand to Urs, and explained in detail the few precautions he remembered about the deepest part of the ruins of this dungeon to the rest of the team, and then escaped into the darkness of the corridor under the gaze of everyone.
He deliberately kept himself at a distance from the crowd, and even the dark vision of the Crow, Stonefist, and Koto could not find him for a while.
The thief's stealth skills become more imperceptible under the cover of shadows. Urs took the glowing stone that Gloledon had given him, and knowing that the old thief would inevitably follow his group next, he let the other five in the group, including himself, move on.
The bright light source changes its owner, illuminating the front with the bearer's steps.
There are no new forks in the road in this section, and there are no monsters or traps. Urs, who needed to hold his sword in both hands, tied the glowing stone to his belt, and after about two minutes, he finally led everyone through the entire path to a new area in the deepest part of the ruins.
The new area is the interior of a large cavern with a sudden opening of space, and the empty and quiet atmosphere is like an invisible mouth that swallows the adventurers who arrive here, so that everyone in the team feels that although the scene in front of them seems to be peaceful, it is definitely a hidden murderous motive as soon as they come to this place.
"The fire is on the fire, this place...... I always felt like I was being stared at by some kind of malicious stare at me. Koto gritted his teeth and followed the group as he stepped forward from the exit of the corridor, his round eyes looking around vigilantly, "I hope this is my delusion." The warriors of the clan hate dastardly sneak attacks! ”
The young man's ears listened to the dwarf's complaints, and his face was expressionless, but he secretly said that I also hated sneak attacks, because such a dastardly act can become very tricky and deadly if it is used correctly, especially if the enemy who launched the attack is still a dragon.
Shadow dragons are cunning and treacherous, with a strong connection to the shadow plane, becoming translucent like ghosts when in a stealth state, and with a layer of dark scales on their bodies, their appearance is blurry in the dark environment, and when viewed from a distance, they look like a large shadow. People with high perceptual attributes may be able to sniff out ominous signs, but they are often unable to fully see through this insidious disguise.
Urs knew that the Shadow Dragon liked to use his inducement abilities to hide, and then launch an abrupt attack from his hideout, supplemented by various illusions to confuse and mislead his prey.
He held his breath and briefly recalled some of the memories in his mind for a while, then turned his back to the four companions behind him while holding his sword on alert, and asked one of them aloud, "Raven, do you still have light spells in your spell slot?" ”
"Two left." Miss Poet said in a calm tone, "So what are you going to do?" Want to light up the whole space with such a large space? ”
