21. The Pretty Widow Lord's Request!?
"Buddha! What's going on!? Elysiver's voice involuntarily raised a few scales, she had received enough surprises today, but looking at Foke's face, she knew that there were probably other "surprises" waiting for her. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"This and this, this ......" Buddha Ke stammered rarely, and in the end, it was Aliciphus who calmed down first, closed her eyes and took several deep breaths in a row before she said seriously: "Calm down Buddha Ke!" You're my court governor, what's the matter with a gaffe like this!? β
Buddha Ke immediately showed a ashamed expression, shook his head vigorously, and used all his strength to make his voice as low as possible as if it were not trilling: "Lord Qiqi! As a matter of fact...... Hmm, it should be the day Mr. Asa interrupted the summoning ceremony," said this, Buddha Ke's face showed a look of extreme remorse, but he still pulled himself together and continued: "On that day, the Holy Spirit Temple in Dugu City was ...... underground Part of the mausoleum where the supreme kings of the past were buried collapsed......"
Speaking of which, everyone basically guessed what the next development would be, Asa couldn't help pinching his eyebrows, and smiled bitterly with the mentality of just in case: "You won't tell me that the passage to Portmar's mausoleum was blocked because of the collapse, right?" β
"Unfortunately, that's exactly what happened." Buddha Ke was not so much crying as a wry smile on his face.
"What about the collapse? Is it serious? Alicifer is most concerned about this at the moment, but she basically has a little bottom in her heart: Buddha didn't tell her about this matter, which means that the situation is not serious, but looking at Buddha Ke's expression now, I am afraid that the situation that is not serious will be very fatal!
Sure enough, Buddha Ke then said: "At that time, it was mainly the mausoleum of Portmar and her husband King Mantiaco that collapsed, and the situation was not particularly serious, so I didn't report it to you, my lord, I thought it was in disrepair at the time, and now I want to come ......"
"Enough!" Elysif eagerly interrupted Foko's explanation and asked, "Now tell me how long it will take to dig through the passage?" β
"It's just a month." I think it was this most crucial sentence that just made the Buddha face like a blank paper, according to this progress, if you don't wait for them to enter after digging through the tunnel, Portmar will run out by himself "snapping" (because there are only bones left~~......
"Then don't dig at all, just seal all the entrances and don't let her come out?" Dianster suggested with some trepidation, I have to say, at first glance it sounded quite reasonable, rather than risk going in, it would be better to simply seal off all the entrances and exits and let Portmar "sleep underground" in another form.
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned, and when the eyes of Aliciphus and Buddha Ke were about to glow with hope, Asa directly poured a basin of cold water and said: "Just kidding, Potmar is one of the most powerful necromancers in history, at that time, she relied on the army of undead to block the imperial army for so many years, and it would be too much to underestimate her by relying on some dirt and gravel to stop her." What's more......" When Asa said this, he directly used a [teleportation] to three meters away, and then turned back and said, "What if she can do this, what will you do?" To put it bluntly, this [teleportation] is to counter-summon yourself from a certain distance, which seems difficult, but it is the same for summoners and necromancers. β
"Then it will only have to speed up the progress of the workers! Buddha Ke! If you work day and night from tomorrow, will you be able to shorten the time? β
"It's a pity that the previous month was the result of working day and night. But...... If we recruit another group of workers to work at night, we may be able to increase the efficiency even more! Fo Ke roughly estimated that there is still a gap between the efficiency of workers in two batches of day and night and a group of workers working day and night, the latter may have more advantages in the connection, but the cumulative fatigue will definitely affect the work efficiency, the former is the opposite, but the efficiency of the former should be higher.
"At the moment, it seems that this is the only way! So ...... now? Well, it's too late now, so let's go to the scene tomorrow morning to see what happens. Mr. Asa and Mr. Islam, you have worked hard today! β
"Where, strictly speaking, this is also the sequelae of our Dawn Expedition, and then I will also leave the most elite members of the Dawn Guard temporarily stationed in Dugu City just in case, and ask the lord for permission!" I have to say that Islaon looks like a one-eyed person, but this kind of diplomacy is really good, he didn't miss this opportunity to sell a favor in Dugu City, facing the undead like Portma, it is undoubtedly the soldiers of the Dawn Guard who are more experienced, and things are so bad that they will definitely come in handy when they have to face Potmar's undead army.
"Absolutely! It's better for us to thank you for your righteous action! "Although Elyseverus was a woman, she didn't have long hair and short knowledge, and she really thought it was the bane left by the Dawnguards, when in fact she wanted to ask all the Dawnguards to stay if she could. It's a pity that this is not only easy to leak the news, but also easy to attract the suspicion of the empire.
"Mr. Islam! If you don't mind, can you come with me to DΓΌrr Castle tomorrow? Alicifer spoke, Buddha Ke naturally followed up immediately, after all, the Dawn Guard is a foreign force, this time is not the same as the collective vacation in Dugu City two days ago, it is stationed, maybe it will also provide training methods for the undead in Dugu City in this month. It is impossible not to say hello to General Tulius on the Imperial side of such a thing.
"Of course!"
"It's useless for us to be in a hurry now, so please go back and get some rest, and I'll be waiting for you at the Holy Spirit Temple at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."

The Holy Spirit Temple in Dugu City is also one of the famous tourist attractions in Dugu City, only Dugu City has a temple that worships the eight Holy Spirits at the same time in Skyrim Province, in addition to Talos, who was removed due to the "Platinum Agreement", the altars of the eight most powerful original spirits who participated in the creation of the world of Nain, such as Akatosh, Dibela, Mara, Stendall, Zenisar, Akai, Ginares, and Julianos, are all enshrined in the Holy Spirit Temple of Dugu City. However, what tourists who come here do not know is that the entrance to the mausoleum of the supreme king of Dugu City in the past dynasties is also here.
Although it was said that they were here to see the situation, it was more like a group of insiders who came here to pay homage to the Eight Holy Spirits, hoping that the Holy Spirit would bless them to dig through the passage before Portmar was resurrected, and after Aliciphus promised the foreman in charge of the project that they would be rewarded for digging through the passage within a month, the group returned to the Holy Spirit Temple on the ground.
After the visit, Isla and Foco went to Dur Castle, and Steele went back to look through the journals left by their ancestors to find information related to the summoning ceremony, and when Asa thought he had nothing to do, Elysif suddenly stopped Asa.
"Mr. Asa, I have something personal...... I'd like to ask you to help me. Elysif looked nervously around, and then pulled Asa to a secluded corner of the Temple of the Holy Spirit under Asa's stunned gaze.
(Could it be the pretty widow?) Unfortunately, before Asa's YY could stretch any further, he saw Aliciphus pull out a somewhat familiar war horn from behind him. (To be continued.) )
