Act 48 Collapse (III)

At this moment, in a deep dark cave, the footsteps of two people were heard. 'Da Da' reverberates in this dark region. At this moment, the white-gloved half-elf at the front took a fire from his bosom and lit a torch, and then a bright light illuminated the path under their feet.

Ge Tongluo, who was walking behind, looked at the black wall rocks around him: "Are you sure this place is sealed with the Mithril Scepter?" ”

"If Rubron hadn't shifted the Mithril Scepter, then it would be here." Avis said flatly. Ge Tongluo turned his head and glanced at Avis, and the half-elf at this time seemed to have a lot less expression, and it could even be said that he was a little cold. After making a deal with the Devil, Ives feels completely different. Ge Tongluo looked at Avis, and his brows couldn't help but furrow—he felt that the person in front of him was not the kind half-elf he knew, but as if he was a stranger.

What did he sacrifice to the devil? Is it really just a sacrifice of knowledge?

Avis didn't pay attention to Ge Tongluo's strange gaze, he just recalled the memory in his mind - the Mithril Scepter, an artifact, appeared in the game, and it was here. But that incident had little to do with Bishop Roubron at all. Probably a year after the game began, an evil wizard unleashed the evil here in order to overthrow the rule of the Council of Mages of the Winter Ring of Vidora. And it was also the incident of Tong Guò. Avis learned that in the man-made cavern beneath the church, a staff of the Most Evil had been sealed.

There are only two ways to get there in the game. One path leads from the underground staircase below the church to the place where the Mithril Scepter was sealed, but alas. It is simply impossible for them to cross that road now. After yesterday's battle, the church at this time can be said to be heavily guarded, and even Ge Tongluo does not have the confidence to walk freely in such a place.

So they had to take another route, from the underground tunnels to the entrance to the cavern, and then through the long underground cavern to the place where the Mithril Scepter was sealed.

That's all Ives has planned—he knows of course that making a deal with the devil is a dangerous thing to do, and that if he's not careful, he'll become Saruman's lackey. But if you don't make a deal with the devil. But he also couldn't gain great power. One way to make a deal with the Devil safer is to obtain the Mithril Scepter. This scepter was designed to seal the devil. Aives can use the power of this scepter to suppress the devil's pact. In this case, it would be almost impossible for Saruman to control Evis.

Even if it's the Lord of Hell. Because the artifact allows the owner to control the authority of the gods.

"Let's go, I can feel it. The Mithril Scepter is ahead. ”

Walking through the intricate path and turning a significant slope ahead, the two of them began to show signs of man-made structures around them. This is the architectural style of the High Elves a thousand years ago. Even if time has turned the slate into sand, people can still feel the glory and glory of this place.

It was once a fortress for the High Elves, who held out until the late Second Age during the war against the Sunset King, when they were conquered by a demigod vampire. All the High Elves in the fortress were killed, and none surrendered. No one was spared.

Later, Vidora built a new city on this much-worn land, which she named 'Pifer'. In the High Elf language, the word means 'strong and unyielding', which is also the reverence of later generations for their ancestors.

Walking past the glorious buildings that had long since been dilapidated, Avis and Ge Tongluo stepped up a stone staircase. When I walked here, there were already some traces of biological activity around. It wasn't obvious, but there were signs of some animal passing on the floor around them. Avis silently opened the Great Magician's spellbook. He flipped straight to page seventeen, his hand stroking over the somewhat rough title page of the spellbook. His brows furrowed: "If we continue to advance, we will soon encounter some enemies that we simply cannot deal with." ”

"There was a faint smell of sulfur in the air." Ge Tongluo sniffed for a moment, and then frowned unconsciously. His eyes wandered over the ground, looking at the footprints of some kind of animal that seemed to be hidden in the ruins, and after a moment of silence, Ge Tongluo continued: "It seems that our enemies are a bit numerous, have we entered the lair of some evil creature?" ”

"You guessed it right." Avis took a deep breath, "Our enemy is the Anzu Demon, a rather nasty creature. ”

Anzu is a nuisance indeed, a short, stout, winged devil that tends to act in tandem with the Tiger Hornet, making it quite a difficult devil to deal with. And against the devil, ordinary weapons are useless, if there are conditions, it is better to prepare some cold iron. But it's not that easy to get your hands on.

Avis took the form of an angel, and after gaining the HP bonus, he glanced down at his master's book in his hand, and then he began to chant the incantation. The jerky incantation surrounded Ge Tongluo's ears, making him feel a little uncomfortable.

Then, Ge Tongluo saw that the scene around him was slowly changing, the first thing that faded was the color, and the colors around him soon became monotonous black and white, and then, those scenes began to become blurred, as if they were in the water looking at the outside world, and everything seemed so blurry and hazy. The last thing to disappear is the sound, and in this strange realm, you can barely hear any sounds—the wind, the talking, the footsteps, all of which disappear in an instant.

Avis took a step of his own, and he turned his head and made a gesture to Ge Tongluo, motioning for him to follow. Ge Tongluo looked at the surrounding scene in some silence, and without saying anything, he followed behind Avis. The surrounding scenery began to become strange, and at this time, some words appeared around Ge Tongluo now.

The words floated around, constantly flashing with a faint blue light. And when you get closer, the words fade away, and finally disappear into your eyes. If there was a knowledgeable mage here, he would be able to recognize this as Ortovan, a law script that has been passed down in the shadow plane. Anyone who crosses into the shadow plane can see these words, but it belongs only to the shadow species.

If you have the strength of the legendary level, you can directly parse the rules of this shadow plane through the words guò, so that you can pass through the shadow plane and instantly reach any location in the original world. After all, the shadow plane is a world that is not observable by normal things, and you can use it to travel through space quickly. Of course, if you can parse the text of the Shadow Plane, then you can earn the legendary feat, 'Shadow Plane Shuttle'.

Naturally, Aives couldn't parse the words, but he cast the seven-ring spell 'Shadow Walk', so he could ignore these rules and find the right path directly through the guidance of Guò magic.

[Shadow Walking]: A seven-ring spell in which the caster will directly communicate with the shadow plane, thus crossing a qiē obstacle and enemy in front of him, and directly reaching the destination he wants to go to. However, the destination cannot be more than the caster's level/mile.

When Avis stopped, the scene around him changed. The black and white space turned back into color, and the sound began to surround my ears. When he stopped, the strange words around him disappeared. Ge Tongluo felt the strength in his body again, he looked around, and finally exhaled deeply: "We've arrived?" ”

"Not bad." Avis nodded, "We've crossed all the enemies and traps, as well as the traps set up by the church, to the place where the Mithril Scepter was sealed. Then Avis took out a bottle of healing potion and gave himself a little HP, and his gaze swept around—they were on a circular stone platform, and at this moment, the center of the stone platform was illuminated by a ray of light from above, and in the illuminated spot, a silver scepter was inserted in the center.

Avis let out a sigh: "Here, the seal is the Mithril Scepter. ”

But getting the Mithril Scepter is not that simple. Ives is ready.

……

At the same time, in front of an altar, a man in a black robe raised his head, his eyes looked at the statue of the demon in front of him, he took a deep breath, and then took out a knife from behind him, sliced his own artery, and let the blood flow. At this moment, there was not the slightest look of pain or fear on the man's face, and all he had left was endless fanaticism.

"You will have eternal life in hell." A flat voice sounded behind the man, and then a man stepped out of the shadows, a smile on his lips, "Congratulations, you have succeeded in obtaining the pleasure of the Devil Duke, and you should be honored as a sacrifice to the Devil." ”

And the man laughed, watched the blood of the sacrifice flow, and finally fell on the altar that had received the offering, after which it began to lighten. And if Ives had been present at this time, he would have immediately called out the man's name in surprise.

- Jericho.

……

My eyes are a little uncomfortable, so I'll go to the hospital tomorrow to have a look. (To be continued)
