Chapter 017: The Body in the Deep Cave
Thanks for the tips for strolling through the night! ――
"Well, they all left a few days ago after listening to you."
"Alright, you inform me now, are you ready to leave Bliss City? I'm new to the Shadow Academy, and it may take some time to help you find out your daughter's whereabouts, after all, wielding the power of the Magic Eye isn't that simple. ”
"I know, I just want to tell you to go to Agesteen City to find me in the future, and then you can go there and find a place called the Doug Chamber of Commerce, which is my property right."
Melio sighed a few times, and after saying everything, he completely turned off the communication rune, like long-distance communication is a terrible number for the mana consumption in the body, that is, he can only support such a medium and long distance as a second-order mage, if it is like the distance from the mage cluster to the nightmare border, then only a fifth-order mage can do it.
"Now that the matter is done, I must do my best to protect Briss City."
Melio was determined in his heart that his ambition was to use Briss City to slowly expand.
"My lord, Earl Victoria has fled. The Earl, who had been a stand-in for the other day, had died in the Earl's Hall, and several of his wives had been stabbed to death. ”
The crystal on the other side floated a pale blue phantom of the robe, and there was a trembling voice in his tone.
"What!"
Melio's expression was startled, and suddenly he became gloomy and angry. He thought about why the army of war elves and orcs had come to the foot of Blith so quickly, and thought of certain details, especially what had been brought together. Melio learns most of the truth.
"It's all you, Victoria. Now I understand that you should be in cahoots with the upper echelons of the royal capital. "Melio knows the truth of everything. At the same time, he sighed angrily: "The Mars Empire is really like the twilight of the past, and it is gradually turning gray. ”
After thinking a little about these annoying questions. Melio interrupted contact and continued to manipulate the Mage Tower to deliver a fierce blow.
He knew that no matter what, he had to do his best to protect Briss City, because he was the one who held power here!
…………
Somewhere in the woods of the Mage Cluster.
The gray-yellow cliff has a very smooth and flat surface, like a wound cut by a giant with a sharp sword, and there is a trace of mottled blood on the cliff one or two meters above the ground.
The nearby woods are covered by the topography, with dense and round black foliage that keeps the sun out of the way. The ground and surroundings became dark and dark, and there was a damp, musty smell in the air.
"Bliss City is falling? That's a year ahead of schedule. ”
Grant closed the communication rune, and the activation pattern on his arm quickly receded, and the elemental fluctuations became normal and banal.
He knew that the impact of Briss City was mainly brought by himself, and the consequences of the butterfly effect were incalculable.
"The era of war has been revealed, I hope that the great chaos in the mage world can be a little later, at least so that I can have enough strength to face all this trouble, otherwise, the future road will not be easy either."
Grant thought of these things in a mess. I also groped for nearby places, checked the terrain on both sides, whether it was a sunken pit or a hole in the ground, it was clear that a relatively small gap also allowed the poisonous centipede to enter and probe. But the results are sad.
He didn't know the secret of this woods in the game, otherwise he would have come a long time ago.
"Bang Bang ......"
In the distance, two knights ran at full strength, the sharp swords and scabbards on their armor clattering. The sound of metal clashing was far enough for Grant to hear.
"What? Is there a situation? ”
Grant turned his head and withdrew his hand, and stood there asking.
"There you go. Miss Tiffel and Miss Taylor found there a cave blocked by a large rock, and perhaps we would have a clue if we pushed it away. ”
"Yes." Grant's heart fluttered. Immediately rushed after them, leaving some scarlet blood stains on the ground they passed, all of which were left by the human-faced monkeys.
Under the gray-yellow cliff, there is a black gap around it, and there is an oval in the middle, and the surface of the black inkstone blocks the entrance of the cave, and there are many pitted scars on the surface. In front of the stone stood two silver-haired maidens, holding a staff, slowly eroding the surface with a handful of green corrosive mist.
As first-order mages, they also master a few apprentice-level spells from other departments, such as acid corrosion from the undead and spells, and of course they focus on fire, electricity, and earth spells.
"Snort~~"
The lime powder smell floats in the air and has an increasingly strong flavor.
Grant rushed to the front and couldn't help asking, "Can't push it away?" ”
"Of course, otherwise we're going to corrode the exterior here." Teffel and Taylor rolled their eyes and replied with a look of disdain.
"Silver Frost Wolf and Grizzly Bear come out!"
With a wave of his right hand, two black flames suddenly burst out in front of his chest, and the low and thick beast roar slowly passed, and the silver wolf and grizzly bear crawled to the side of the stone together, and pressed their shoulders against the edge of the stone and kept moving forward.
There was a rustling sound on the ground, and the stones slowly moved away.
Teffel and Taylor stood by, slowly watching the changes unfold in front of them. They knew that the spells used by Grant were rather peculiar, and he didn't seem to be good at just the undead system, but also at this faction of summoning demon pets. As a mage, it's rare to use animal taming.
But they don't ask about such things, after all, things like about factions, especially minority factions, are often personal privacy.
Soon, the stone was pushed away.
Inside the dark cavern, a strong smell of blood floated out, and the smell of decaying corpses that had been dead for a long time.
"There are dead bodies inside, everyone should be careful." Grant's brow furrowed, and a look of danger flashed in his eyes. He felt that it was not so simple, so he told the Silver Frost Wolf to go to the front, and he followed behind and stepped inside.
For safety, he also specially blessed an elemental shield to protect himself.
He was followed by Tefir and the other knights, who were grouped together in a semicircle, armed with greatswords or domed shields mounted on their backs, keeping watch and guarding their surroundings.
In the dark space, there is less light to see.
"Wow!"
Grant's fingertips moved, and a small and delicate golden flame reflected a small area, distinguishing the outline of the deep cavern, and when they walked not far ahead, a huge figure lay still on the ground.
It was a barbed human-faced monkey, but its body was twice the size of a human-faced monkey, with a spiral-shaped horn on the top of its head, and its ears were narrow, pointy.
On the surface of the chest there is a rotting mouth where maggots arch. (To be continued.) )
