Where Brando's finger was pointing, a pale golden beam of light sprawled rose from the center of the valley and plunged into the sky. Because the color of this pillar of light was extremely light, almost blending into the canopy of heaven from a few miles away, they had not even noticed it before, but now with the help of the green background of the valley, they could clearly see the existence of this pillar of light. Brando and Bai Jia glanced at each other, and instantly understood what it was: "Rule Fragment—"

"I didn't expect the rule fragments near Fatan City to fall here," Bai Jia whispered with some excitement: "Because ordinary players regard the knowledge slate as much more important than the rule fragments, this kind of thing is only cared about by big forces, so few people know the exact location of the first batch of rule fragments." What she meant was that she had hit a lot of luck this time and made a lot of money.

In the game, rule fragments are of little use to individual players, but they are extremely important to a faction. Its most basic function is to raise an artificial sun in the eternal night, and holding it means that you can build a completely independent country, because in the next era, there are refugees who are forced to live to come to you, which is what careerists dream of.

As the Count of Tonigel, the importance of this thing to him is of course self-evident, he originally planned to go to the Mehotofen area to find the rule shard, because there is a rule shard there He knows the detailed location of the shard, but he didn't expect that the luck was so good, it didn't take any effort to get it.

At the very bottom of the valley, where the slabs of war fell, among the dense oak trees stood clusters of white ruins, which were once made of marble and must have been majestic palaces, but now only the broken walls remain, and you can get a glimpse of the past. Brando pushed away the clumps of aerial roots, and all sorts of unnamed insects scattered densely over the disturbed trunks. It makes your scalp tingle when you look at it. However, Brando and Bai Jia didn't care, the latter casually slapped off a spider on his shoulder, and looked at the two boulders that appeared after the dense aerial roots were separated, and the two blue-gray boulders were covered with mottled moss, overlapping each other not far ahead, like an arch. Deep beneath the archway, an oak tree coiled over the top of the rock for an unknown number of years, its intricate root system hanging from the rock, holding the two rocks firmly together.

There was silence in the forest, and the five of them left the jungle in turn to the two huge rocks, Bai Jia took out the pine resin torch from his backpack and lit it, and held it high, and the light of the fire immediately drew shadows of different shades on the uneven surface of the rock, two of which formed a staggered 'X' shape, because someone had left two deep marks there.

She glanced there. He took back his torch and replied, "This is it." ”

As she spoke, she took the lead towards the depths, and Brando looked around, and then followed closely behind Hipamela with a shepherd's staff—as a devout devotee of Mother Earth Goddess, she certainly could not have exposed the tokens of the gods all the time, which she usually wrapped in cloth and carried on her back. Mordface seemed to enjoy the dark environment, and he narrowed his eyes slightly in some comfort. Andreg, on the other hand, wrinkled his nose and looked reluctant. Lift the skirt for fear of getting dirty.

The firelight followed the footsteps, and the darkness faded, and they had not gone long before a wall was reflected in front of them, or rather not a wall, but a thick stone arch. There are several symbols on the stone door, all of which are in ancient Cruz script, representing sun, air and life from top to bottom, which are the three powers of the sun god Perkin, and Sir Roruison is a devout Perkin. He was even considered a saint, so that the bones could be contained in the crypts of the Perkin Temple.

Bai Jia stopped in front of the door, fixed the torch on the torch stand next to the door, and turned back to the other people and said: "This is a magic door, it takes three Perkin's believers to inject magic to open it, we don't have a follower of the sun god here, but Perkin is Martha's slave god, so other priests from the god can also be replaced, Miss Hipamila, you can be counted as one." I was one with Monsieur Earl, Andreg and Mordfeth, and luckily, each of us here would work magic. ”

"What am I going to do, Lady Nimesis?" Hipamela asked.

"Just put your hand on the door and chant the spell to cast the spell 'Magic Mark'." Brando replied that the so-called infusion of magic in the game is like this, the magic mark is the most basic magic of all schools of magic, it is not in the ring, but there is this basic spell in the magic of each school of magic, this spell can be used to identify magic items (just to identify whether there is a zài magic reaction), although the magic mark of each school works in a similar way, but the effect is almost the same.

"Come in groups," Bai Jia reminded again, "Hipamila, you come first." ”

Miss Priest nodded, stepped forward and put her hand on the door, chanting a spell, and in a few moments, the rune representing the sun at the top of the door lit up, shimmering with a pale golden light in the dim light. Brando and Bai Jia glanced at each other, and together they put their hands on the stone door, and when they injected their magic power, the blue air runes also lit up.

Finally, Andreg and Mordface finished chanting the incantation, the red life rune lit up, the stone door creaked and vibrate, and then slowly sank to the ground, the dust on it fell straight down, and a black hole was soon revealed behind it. Before everyone could see clearly, suddenly a withered hand stretched out from the darkness and grabbed the sinking stone door with a click, and then two points of crimson fire lit up, and a skull with two red soul fires burning in its eye sockets appeared.

The undead use soul fire to distinguish their soul strength, and in Madara, most of the lowest-level undead, including newly resurrected skeletons and zombies, are pale and almost transparent soul fires, and as they grow stronger, the color of soul fire will change from light to dark, and finally to orange, red, blue, and even purple. The skeleton in front of him, the soul fire beating in his eye sockets had turned crimson, indicating that it was at least a monster of the level of a skeleton knight.

The Skeleton Knight and the Great Corpse Witch, when Brando escaped from Butch. Encountering one was enough to make him tremble, but right now, it wasn't enough for him to see—just a skeleton at the pinnacle of silver. Brando didn't have time to make a move, and Mordface suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed: "Eternal Death Realm!" The skeleton and the dozen skeletons that were about to rush out behind it suddenly seemed to have been under the immobilization spell, the red light in their eyes flashed slightly, and then they stayed there motionless.

"Turn around." Mordface said in a commanding tone, "Get out of the way!" ”

Without hesitation, the skeletons turned around and clattered into the darkness, by which time the stone door had completely sunk into the ground, and Brando saw that the skeletons were all covered in rusty armor - indeed skeleton knights. He glanced at Mordfeth, Mordfeth's means of controlling these undead did not come from the Dead Moon Knight, but as a high-level undead creature's innate ability, of course, this ability was only effective compared to his weaker undead, although the vampire pseudo-girl was much weaker after the deck was reconstructed. But there is also the strength of the golden lower position, and it is more than enough to control a few skeletons at the peak of silver.

"The transformation time of these undead is not long," Bai Jia watched the bones leave, and suddenly said: "It should be caused by the tide of magical power, most of the corpses parked in this tomb were Perkin's knights and saints before their deaths, and they have a certain strength, so they can transform such powerful undead." ”

Brando nodded, these skeleton knights were not yet a threat to them. But this is the entrance to the tomb, there are such powerful undead, who knows what will be inside. This is like saying that a dungeon, the miscellaneous soldiers at the door of the dungeon are all thirty or fifty levels, what is the level of the elite in the dungeon, and what is the level of the boss? "Be careful," he said, "Mordfyes, you control these ribs and go ahead." Andreg you protect Hipamila, Senpa...... Miss Nimesis, come to me. ”

Of the five, Mordface and Andreg are undead themselves, with a natural protective color in places infested with undead, while Hipamela, as a priest, has the same problem of insufficient combat effectiveness as most priests. Although the sacrifice of the goddess of the earth is more inclined to combat among the priests, it is also because of the horizontal comparison among the many godless priests, which is still far from the full-time knights, especially the knight of the dead moon, which is more inclined to attack. And in terms of strength alone, Ni Mei Sisi is probably the worst of the few, although the female knight is close to the manifestation of the elements, but she is good at swordsmanship, and the senior sister is good at spells, the difference is big, and it is impossible to get used to it for a while.

Sure enough, as Bai Jia expected, the storm set off by the Great Demon Tide on the Sea of Magic has profoundly changed this place, because the magic power surrounding the elemental barrier began to become violent, and the power of the Demon Moon has also been strengthened thousands of times, and the first impact on the continent is that the magic power that fills the entire world has become rich and rich, so a large number of animals and plants have been invaded by the magic power and transformed into monsters, and the same is true for corpses, and the probability of the appearance of wild undead has increased exponentially.

In a place like a tomb surrounded by dark magic, the impact is even more obvious-

After entering the stone gate, there is a long stone staircase that goes deep into the ground, and then the five of them enter a vast dark cellar, in which the walls, columns, pits and ceilings can be carved in a faint shadow of the ruins on the ground, which looks like a building from the same period, but the cellar is filled with a layer of white mist, and the air is full of the smell of decay. Bai Jia carried the torch through a pit with a large number of coffins, and the light of the torches could reach thick cobwebs, and occasionally fist-sized spiders could be seen flashing in the shadows of stone slabs and wooden frames.

They were first greeted by a dozen skeleton knights, but they were overwhelmed by Andre in a single face, and then the vampire twins ordered their skeleton knights to turn their spearheads and smash their own kind to pieces. Then, as he continued to go deeper, undead such as mummies and ghouls began to appear in the tomb, and even Brando also encountered a demon lord, this thing is a golden peak undead creature, and its strength is not even inferior to the skeleton lord Kabais, who he once killed in the fir castle, in front of these powerful undead creatures, Andreg and Mordfes's younger brothers were quickly consumed, but the demon lord was only nailed to a pillar by Brando with the sword of the earth piercing the soul fire in a flash.

The demon lord seems to be still a character like a small boss, and after his death, he left a dark crystal on the ground, and Brando picked it up and looked at it, and then his face was happy.

"It's this thing." Bai Jia saw the crystal in Brando's hand. also lit up in his eyes.

"This is an infusion crystal, a very precious thing." Mordface also exclaimed: "I don't know what kind of magic is injected into it." ”

Brando held up the crystal in the firelight and nodded, this is the magic infusion crystal, which is actually a type of magic scroll, but it is made of the soul crystal of the undead. As everyone knows. Most monsters will leave magic crystals after death, and the undead are no exception, and the crystals left by the undead are soul crystals; Grey soul crystals are useless for most wizards and alchemists, but they can be used by clerics and necromancers to store magic or refine high-level undead such as ghosts.

The soul crystal that stores the magic is the infusion crystal, its appearance is different from the gray of the general soul crystal but black, although the effect of the infusion crystal is similar to that of the scroll, they are all one-time items, but more powerful. It greatly increases the strength and penetration of stored spells, increases the caster's level, and is much easier to fire than using scrolls. This kind of thing is very precious even in Madara, because there are not many people who can make this thing, and the success rate is even lower, plus the soul crystal is originally a precious material for making high-level undead, so it is rare for someone to waste such a disposable item as a zuò so extravagantly.

For this reason. Generally, the level of magic stored in the infusion crystal will not be low.

Brando quickly figured out what the infusion crystal in his hand was through guò's own 'system': "Soul Spike Infusion Crystal." ”

"Nine Rings Divine Technique!" The exclamation in Bai Jia's eyes was even worse: "Brando, you are lucky...... No, it's not magic. She reacted suddenly. It's black magic. Necromancy. Brando said, Soul Spike is a very vicious black magic, it can bypass most magical defenses and directly attack people's souls, and the most powerful thing about this spell is that even if you have an amazing will to resist most of the magic effects, it will leave a mark on your soul. As soon as you're weak, it'll be waiting for an opportunity to launch a second attack, which will be caught off guard. He subconsciously looked at the corpse of the demon lord - of course, the undead here did not spawn out of thin air, but were transformed from the original corpse in this tomb, judging by the strength of this undead. The corpse's original owner must have been a Templar at the very least.

Senior Sister Bai Jia had already reacted first, she walked up to the undead who was completely dead, and tore off a piece of cloth from its rancid body: "This is the Shroud of the Holy Body, this person was at least a saint before he was born, it's strange, Perkin's believers are the mortal enemies of the undead, how can they have soul crystals infused with black magic?" ”

"Since this man is a follower of Pergin and a saint, he must have fought with many undead spirits during his lifetime, perhaps this is the trophy left by killing a certain necromancer during his lifetime?" Hipamela thought for a moment and replied.

It seemed that this was the only reason that made sense, and Brando nodded, reluctantly accepting the statement, but he looked at the dark crystal in his hand, and vaguely felt a little unreliable. Would Perkin's followers carry such evil with them to their own graves? He put this thought aside for a moment, the road in the tomb had come to an end, there was a closed door behind the corpse of the demon lord, he motioned for Mordface and Andreg to push the door open, and with a dull creaking sound, a small circular hall appeared in front of the five people.

A ray of sunlight shone down from above the small hall, striking out in the darkness of the ground, and everyone noticed a large hole in the arc of the small hall's vault, as if something had fallen from there and penetrated the ceiling. Brando immediately realized what was causing the current scene, and he turned his gaze to find what he was looking for in the middle of a small hall.

It was a square metal plate that shimmered with a faint silver light, rising and falling in the sunlight, suspended in mid-air and spinning slightly, as if waiting for its first owner to arrive.

War Slate!
