Chapter 973: Konarek
"Next, it's this ......" Although it failed to kill Joblin, it did not prevent Mercer from continuing the ritual in the slightest. Joblin had been badly injured by his previous blow, and even if he was lurking around, it was impossible to affect him.
Muttering to herself, Mercer thrust the sword in her hand from the side of the staff that had been placed. At the moment when the long sword was inserted, the golden lines on the sword body lit up, and the fine red silk threads swam out of it as if they had life, and went all the way down the sword body and merged into the magic circle.
As time passed, the red energy on the long sword became weaker and weaker, but the magic circle was glowing with a radiant luster. When all the red energy on the long sword that had been accumulated by Mercer's murder had dissipated, the circle was completely lit up. The rose staff in the middle seemed to come to life in an instant, and it trembled gently and regularly.
"Buzz ......"
A strange wave converged from the edge of the circle towards the staff, and after only a few breaths, the luster on the circle disappeared, replaced by a two-meter-high oblivion gate that appeared in the middle of the original staff......
Joblin was no longer near the circle at this time, and after he was injured by Mercer, he knew that he would never be able to stop this guy alone, so he endured the fatigue of overdrawing his body and the pain of the wound and ran towards the snowy city. The sword just now directly caused him to lose the ability to supply blood around his wounds, and although he had already drunk the potion, it seemed that it would be impossible to recover for a while. Although it was not clear what Mercer was going to do, the circle, the staff in the circle, and the sword in Mercer's hand all gave him a sense of foreboding.
"Stop! Who's there! "The patrols in the city were still very vigilant during the war, and Joblin didn't hide himself much in the first place, so he was quickly discovered.
"I'm the messenger of the Half Moon Collar, and I have something urgent to find Lord Baggrove!" As he spoke, Joblin raised his hand and tossed out the token that proved his identity. When these guards heard that it was the messenger received by Half Moon, they did not dare to slack off, and one of them ran in the direction of the Dragon Hall with the token in his hand, while the rest of the people escorted Joblin to the campfire to treat his wounds. By the way, he was also in charge of keeping an eye on Joblin to prevent this guy from being an impostor.
Joblin was lucky, and within a few minutes he heard neat footsteps on the other side of the steps in the distance. In the firelight, a dark elf woman arrived with a team of guards. This dark elf is Eriles, Bagrave's personal guard.
"Where's the messenger of the Half Moon Collar? Lord Baglouf wants to see him! "The Ireles have not yet arrived, but the voice has already arrived.
"Irelis, long time no see." Joblin waved weakly at the dark elf, finally attracting her attention.
"Joblin? Sure enough, it's you! Why did you come to Xue Manling? Ireles asked, as he stepped forward to observe Joblin's wounds. Her question was obviously just a polite question, and without waiting for Joblin's answer, she continued: "With your current injury, it is almost impossible to get to the Dragon Landing Hall. I'll wait for someone to carry you up. Lord Baglouf is waiting for you in the council chamber. β
As he spoke, Ireles beckoned to the guards beside him, and several of them stepped forward and trotted over the road where Joblin had been going.
It was a bumpy ride, and Joblin felt like his intestines were going to be turned upside down. If it weren't for the fact that the wound had been treated well, and the blood supply around him had not yet recovered, he deeply suspected that when he arrived at the Dragon Lin Hall, he would have passed out directly due to excessive blood loss.
It was late at night, and Baghlouf hadn't slept yet. I don't know if I was already asleep, but I got up again after learning that there was an urgent message.
"Joblin, is there anything urgent about coming here so late?" Seeing that Joblin was being carried in, Baghlouf didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly.
"My lord, I was ordered to find a great thief under the vampire lord Dacula and entered the territory of the Snowman. Just now, I found that guy on a small farm on the outskirts of the city, he was preparing an evil magic circle, although I don't know exactly what he is going to do, but it is probably not a good thing! Joblin briefly explained why he appeared late at night behind the snow manker, and then hurriedly talked about what had happened.
Although it is a bit of a leap to say that Joblin entered his territory like this without telling himself about it, Baghlouf is not a person who does not distinguish between the important and the serious, and said directly: "Where is the place?" I'm sending someone now! β
As he spoke, Irelais had already taken out a detailed map of the surrounding area of Snowman City from under his table at the signal of Baglouf.
Although Joblin hadn't looked at the map, he still remembered the path he had taken along the way, and he quickly found the farm by the river.
"This is it, Lord Baggrove......" As Joblin had just left his hand and clicked on a farm marked on the map, he suddenly felt the skull key in his arms jump, and the nightingale armor on his body suddenly tightened, and then quickly returned to normal. Just ......"
"Ding-bell......" Before Joblin could finish his words, he heard the sound of glass bottles breaking in the side hall.
"Lord Bagruf!" A white-faced, beardless mage stumbled out of the side hall. "I just sensed a violent magic fluctuation coming from the riverside farm, and the preliminary judgment was that it was caused by the establishment of the Gate of Annihilation. According to this distance......"
As he spoke, the mage scurried up the stairs. When he came up, he was dumbfounded and immediately stopped talking. After all, this kind of thing is classified no matter what, and it is difficult for him to say it now that there is such an outsider who has been collared for a month and a half.
"Go on, he can listen to ......" Baggrove's face was a little gloomy, he looked at where Joblin was pointing, and said slowly. By now, Baghlouf had been sure that the great thief from the Half Moon Territory in front of him was telling the truth, because the place he was referring to happened to be the Riverside Farm.
"According to this distance, it is preliminarily judged to be a large, extremely long-lasting annihilation channel......"
"It seems...... I seem to be a little late......" Joblin's Adam's apple rolled slightly, and he said slowly.
"Irelis, send the order down to sound the alarm, and Snow City has activated all its defenses and prepared to deal with the attack of the annihilating creatures!" After Baglouf finished speaking to Irelis, he turned his head to the mage on the side: "Fa Renjia, take our ally down and find the best priest to treat him, and after that, please ask him to go back and tell Lord Wei Xu what happened here through the teleportation channel......"
"Obey orders......" Fa Renjia nodded slightly, and gestured to a few guards on the side, who walked out of the council hall with Joblin on their backs.
β¦β¦
Horsga Peak.
The wind and snow on the night peak are even heavier, but fortunately, Wei Xu has his own special method to deal with these wind and snow.
βLok Vah KoorοΌβ With Wei Xu's angry shout, all the wind and snow stopped in an instant, as if they had never appeared. Even, even the clouds in the sky were blown away by Wei Xu, making the moonlight more translucent and sprinkled on the perennial snow on Mount Hosgar, making everything snow-white.
This road is only halfway there.
Suddenly, Wei Xu felt that the world was spinning. His vision darkened again, and he saw the humanoid spider with the red sword in front of him, and the key with a hint of red thunder on it. At this time, on the key, circles of light are spreading in all directions.
Just as Wei Xu was watching the red long sword about to slash "himself", the picture flickered again, and Wei Xu suddenly found that his consciousness had returned to his body. However, at the mouth of his heart, he clearly felt a warm current surging towards his limbs.
Wait, what's going on?
Wei Xu suddenly felt that he had a lot of knowledge in his mind inexplicably, this was the perfect knowledge that belonged to a great thief's system. The most important thing is that he obviously felt like he had opened the console and brushed all the proficiency of this knowledge to the full level. Although there was no star power or anything in the sea of consciousness, Wei Xu was sure that he now had the power of a great thief with full proficiency.
"Just right...... I was worried about how to find out what that guy was doing from that old dragon, and he was really sleepy and someone sent a pillow. Wei Xu had already guessed the effect of the skull key, but as for why it was connected to himself, he only had a guess in his heart. However, this did not prevent him from completing what he wanted to do before this energy completely dissipated.
Thinking so, Wei Xu tried to slowly lay down his body, adjusted a comfortable posture, and slowly disappeared into the darkness......
The Throat of the World.
"Your Royal Highness Prince Patumnax, are you really not going to tell me the news of that damn Duwakin?!" The dragon priest's face shimmered with a cold glow on the two long fangs on the golden mask.
"You...... Are you threatening me? The old dragon paced back and forth on the highest boulder a little restlessly. I'm afraid you've forgotten who you are, right? Konarek! You're just a dragon priest! Just a servant of the dragon! How dare you question me to my face?! β
"I have no intention of offending you......" The dragon priest slowly knelt on the ground, making a five-body bow gesture in the direction of Patunax. I just want to get news from you about our predators......"
Patunax's hideous expression on the dragon's head seemed to soften, and he said softly, "Duwakin...... I sensed he was in Rift Valley before. But then on the side of Rift Valley, his aura suddenly disappeared, as if it had never existed. Possible...... Maybe that guy has reached some other plane, and it can't be dead anyway. I still know the feeling of the aura dissipating after death......"
"Your Highness......" The dragon priest slowly straightened up. At first, I did want to know about the cat man, but you know that we are not looking for the cat man now, but the Du-Va-Kyin...... All we have to do is find him and kill him! The cat man can find it slowly, but the guy ...... That guy didn't know how he came into this world, I never thought he would hide so deeply, for so long! β
"What? Duwakin? Is there really such a creature? Patunax seemed a little curious as if he had heard of Wei Xu's existence for the first time.
"Your Highness! As far as I know, you've been in contact with him for a long time, and you've sent a dragon to pick him up after the previous battle in the Rift! I think...... At this time, he may be somewhere on this mountain......" Konarec finally got tired of playing dumb riddles with the dragon in front of him, and explained directly.
"Oh...... You've known the principle for a long time, but unfortunately, that little guy hasn't arrived in Horsgar yet......"
"Then I hope Your Highness you can let go of the shelterer of Hosga, I will look it up, that guy has memorized his aura when he used to spit out his eyes before, and now his aura has disappeared, and other places should not be able to do such a perfect shield......"
"Maybe that guy went to another plane......"
"Your Highness......"
"Priest! Are you questioning me?! In the last moment, Patonax, who was still laughing lightly, arched his body, his wings fully extended. His momentum also changed from the previous gentle to furious.
"I ...... I don't dare ......" High Priest Konarek obviously didn't want to tear his face with Patunax, so he could only admit it.
"Depart, priest. Go to your dragonborns, and as for the fact that you have offended me today, for the sake of Alduin, I will reveal it for the time being......"
"......" Konarek hesitated for a moment, and finally could only bow his head unwillingly: "Thank you, ...... your lordship."
So saying, he turned and walked towards the edge of the cliff.
Behind him, the old dragon Patunax breathed a sigh of relief slowly, looking as if releasing pressure.
But at this moment, a bucket-thick red lightning composed of thousands of fine red lightning bolts suddenly jumped out of the corner and hit Konaric directly, sticking to this guy like a kraft candy.
And Konaric is worthy of being a figure at the level of the High Priest, and when the lightning was about to hit him, he raised his hand and directly blessed himself with a layer of mage armor! Taking advantage of this time, his body also dissipated rapidly, and it seemed that he was about to turn into countless moths and fly away!
"Lao Pa! Act according to the plan! "The sudden situation was a shock to both Konaric and Patunax. After hearing the familiar voice of the sneak attacker, the old dragon smiled helplessly and roared angrily at the sky.
With this roar, a thin curtain of light spread from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain. The moths that had flown out of the High Priest's body struggled as if they had touched an enchantment, and then they all bounced back......
