Chapter 1875: Twilight of the Twilight Fortress (VIII.)
Countless colorful and wriggling poisonous insects enveloped the crystal ball used to control the "Dusk Fortress" lock, making the crystal ball dim. When Nikita switched her perspective to another "peeping magic eye" that was far away from the altar, Roland and the others were able to observe the altar from a wider angle, only to find that the worm covering the center of the puzzle formed a large colorful hand, and the owner of this terrifying palm was standing on the altar at the moment, his tall and bloated body was covered by a cloak, but he couldn't stop the evil aura emanating from his body.
Not far behind the cloaked monster squatted a large, misshapen monster. At first glance, it looks like a blue dragon, but its wings have been mothed into a pale skeleton by poisonous insects, and it is obvious that it can no longer support its heavy body and fly into the air.
The deformed blue dragon seemed to sense that something was peeking in the dark, and suddenly turned its head to look at the hiding place of a crystal magic eye, and let out an angry roar, and the blue dragon scales covering its body rose upwards from this sudden rage, like a fried rooster. Through the crystal ball, Roland and the others could clearly see the rotten flesh and blood texture exposed under the upturned scales of the blue dragon, and countless poisonous insects drilled around in the purple-black carrion, sometimes probing out from under the dragon scales and looking out, this crowded scene was both disgusting and terrifying, making the ladies watching outside feel a tingling scalp, and they all looked away with hatred.
The cloak monster on the altar was startled by the dragon's roar and turned abruptly. The cloak fluttered in the wind, revealing part of his body in an instant, and it was also made of countless poisonous insects like his palm, and the brim of the low-hanging hood flashed a scarlet gaze, staring at the peeping eye that held Nikita's vision.
"Oops!" Nikita's face changed slightly.
At the same time, the cloaked monster suddenly raised his palm, and instantly launched the "Advanced Dispersal Technique", and the ten crystal eyeballs scattered around the altar were shrouded in a large green magic light curtain, crackling and bursting one after another, turning into crystal dust and falling down.
"It's a pity that it was discovered, and there is only so much to see." The vision in the crystal ball quietly disappeared, and Nikita sighed regretfully, her face slightly tired.
"That's enough." Roland patted Miss Mage on the shoulder and used the "Restoration Technique" to help her relieve the fatigue caused by the long concentration of spells. At the same time, two system alerts popped into his mind.
System Prompt: Encounter hostile evil creatures! Naraku Blackguard 19/Worm Walker, challenge level 24!
System Prompt: Encounter hostile evil creatures! Ancient Blue Dragon/Creeping Derivative, Challenge Level 22!
Roland noticed that compared to the first encounter in the Krasbourg Palace four months ago, Clautz had increased by one level, with a total challenge level of 24, and there was an ancient blue dragon beside him that he had transformed into a derivative body, presumably the "Creeping Ancient Dragon" that the necromancer had just said, and also had the strength of the legendary level.
The two legendary powerhouses are sitting in the Naraku Temple, and the risk of the next battle is not low. But Roland feels that his strength is not bad, Nikita is a level 13 mage and a level 2 archmage, Tonya is a level 15 green field druid, and Lyudmila and Veronica are level 15 Far East Ranger and level 15 Parnia ninja respectively, plus they all have a powerful equipment, on average, they have quasi-legendary level strength, as long as they are prepared before the battle, it is not a big problem to join forces to solve the creeping ancient dragon.
"The blue dragon parasitized by poisonous insects will be handed over to you, and the guy in the cloak is Clotz, and I will deal with it."
Roland's voice caused a lot of resentment. The girls all thought that his arrangement was very unreasonable, and that it was too risky to fight Clutez alone, and at least they had to add another helper to themselves.
"Helper? Yes. Roland smiled and pointed at the brown bear, "Misha and I have teamed up to deal with Klautz, you should be relieved now, right?" ”
Misha, the brown bear, was full of astonishment, and in the face of the eyes gathered by the four pairs of brushes, she raised her bear paw and shook her head repeatedly, looking very innocent.
"You don't have to worry about me, I fought Klautz four months ago, and I didn't know his tricks at the time to get him away with it, and I won't give him the same chance this time."
Roland's flat tone revealed a strong confidence, and a hint of imperceptible hatred. Since the tragedy on Chinese New Year's Eve, in the past four months, more than 120 days and nights, he has recalled countless scenes of fighting side by side with his father that night, and while grieving and regretting, he has repeatedly tortured himself: If he was not so dull at that time and was aware of the impending crisis in advance, could he have played better in the bloody battle that night, and was it possible to buy more time to cover his father's escape from the palace before the arrival of "black-robed" Outlaw?
As a lover of historiography, Roland certainly knew that the above assumptions were meaningless, naïve and ridiculous. However, the emotional trauma was so painful that remorse forced him to relive the tragedy of that night in his mind over and over again. Not only did this not help, it was also a mental torture for him, and the benefit was that it made him stronger, and the optimization plans he deduced under hypothetical conditions, although they could not change the tragedy that had occurred, helped him in his plan of revenge. For example, at this moment, when he is about to face Clautz again and get another chance to face off with one of his father's killers, Roland is confident that he will make up for the regret of four months ago and kill Clautz in the most efficient way through countless deductions, not only will he no longer give the other party a chance to escape from countless poisonous insects, but he will not even give Klautz a chance to fight back!
Nikita, Veronica, Lyudmila and Tonya have all accompanied Roland to life and death more than once, and of course they know the stubborn character of this man, just as Marshal Alexei could not prevent Roland from risking his life to participate in the siege battle, they also knew that they could not prevent Roland from avenging his father with his own hands, so they had to reluctantly suppress their worries and obey his arrangement.
"Looking back on the years when we went north to adventure, we have experienced more dangerous situations than this, when did Roland disappoint you? Instead of worrying about him, it is better to work harder to deal with the Creeping Ancient Dragon, and pull out as soon as possible to help him deal with Krautz. ”
Lyudmila was the most optimistic of the four, and these words successfully reassured the girls and focused on preparing for the next battle.
Lyudmila's two weapons, the Legendary Snow Blowing Bow and the Rapid-Fire Crystal Cannon, are equipped with ammo designed to restrain undead creatures. The Snow Blowing Bow is equipped with the extremely expensive "High Undead Pursuit Arrow", which was previously reluctant to use, and the magazine of the magic crystal cannon is filled with rows of armor-piercing bullets filled with holy water.
