Chapter 576: Harendas (II)
"After the destruction of the once-glorious and prosperous Arcane Empire of Netheril, the people of the empire fled in all directions, and established the succession kingdom of Netherel in three regions."
"Noria, Esslen, Harendas."
"These kingdoms or city-states continued to exist for centuries after the fall of the Nether Empire, but deserts and monsters continued to encroach on these areas, and Norria and Essren perished."
"Harendas, the last of the Nether Remnant Inheritance Realm to fall."
"Either way, these three kingdoms have been gone for thousands of years, and we may now be walking the ruins of the capital of ancient Harendas......
Charles's deliberately soft voice echoed in the secluded underground city.
After killing the Shadow Hunter bats, the Nodashir team encountered the Shadow Hound and the Dark Lurkers one after another, and other monsters in the Shadow Realm.
Fortunately, the level of these monsters is around lv10, and the elite monsters with a slightly stronger lv15 are not much of a threat to the team. What puzzled Charles was that the group of intruders, Master Glenrien, and the Guardians of the Tomb of Evrasca had passed through the ruins before and after, and they should have cleared the path of the shadow creatures.
Could it be that these shadow monsters were arranged by intruders?
Charles was slightly distracted, and a panicked voice came from his ears: "Be carefulβ"
Click.
His right foot stepped on a stone slab as soon as the sound came, and a deafening roar resounded through the ancient city. Charles felt it most intensely in the center of the sonic trap area, his ears ringing. The whole person's expression was a little confused, and the retina appeared with verification information:
"Affected by [Roaring Trap]."
"Strength test."
"Pass, you take 51 sonic damage."
HP drops by about 20%.
Charles sat down on the ground very simply. Nibbling on food slowly regenerates health, and as he eats, a string of +5 green stats floats out above his head.
"None of the traps around here have been cleared." The 'fingertip quicksand' who sounded a warning in front of him stood in front of the priest, and said in a cold voice with a little blame and helplessness: "I have already warned you before. β
"Ugh." Scratching the tip of his nose, Charles stood up in full state, scanning the boundless darkness around him. "Now we have two options. β
"Which two?"
Successfully changed the topic, and more than a dozen friends looked at the pastor intently, completely forgetting about his small mistake just now.
"One is to go back the way you came. Follow them along the road in search of the intruders and the Elves of Evrasca as they unfold the uncharted story. β
"The second one, of course, is to continue to spin around like a headless fly, but that's the way it goes. It was probably the core capital of ancient Harendas. In its heyday, it probably had a population of nearly 100,000, so you can imagine how big this relic is......"
Charles spread his hands.
"Is there a choice?" Anya sighed.
In fact, not only Charles, but also these team members have some kind of luck idea, wanting to obtain the magic pulse cannon blueprint needed by the female lord first, and then trace the footprints of the aborigines to start the plot.
But the ruins are too big to imagine. Even if you spend all your energy wandering inside, there are no ten days and half a month. Don't want to discover the location of the library in the ruined city.
"It would be nice if there was a map of the city......"
Everyone thought to themselves as they glanced at the system map covered in the fog of war.
"This place is next to Afflasca, maybe the elves have a map in their hands." Charles's eyes shone brightly, "It's decided, let's go find the plot characters first!" β
"Without a map to guide us, we will run into a powerful dark monster that we can't deal with sooner or later."
The friends had no objection to Charles' decision.
If they had before, they would have questioned it, but after wandering in the dark for nearly two or three hours, they had gained nothing, and anyone's confidence would have been hit.
The team turned around and went back.
Maybe it was the system setting, or maybe the Elf Evrasca deliberately left footprints, and Takekawa Ichi and Ren Qingxuan led the team in the dark and easily traced away.
β¦β¦
At the moment, in the ruins of ancient Harundas go deeper underground.
A group of humans were sweating profusely in the half-finished passageway.
This group of nearly 100 human beings, led by a hero, supported by three exemplars, and below are the human professionals all wearing "elite" templates.
"Dig now!"
The heroic warrior urges his men in the passage.
"Lord Galli, that Eye Demon is dying, do you want to save it?" A female priest in a black silk robe hurriedly approached.
"Save!" Without hesitation, the Hero Galli said, "That Eye Demon can't die until he digs through this magical wall and meets Prince Ramolek!" β
"Obey ......"
The priestess hurried back to the ground, staring coldly at a languishing monster.
From the outside, this monster was a simple sphere six feet in diameter, but this ball was as hideous as it was, with a bloody mouth full of sharp teeth, and four eye stalks that hung down like tentacles in the sand.
Beholders, creatures of the underworld, have their own kingdom in the Dark Regions.
This group of humans actually captured a Eye Demon!
Bite. The priestess took out her emblem and chanted a spell in a low voice, the full moon pattern engraved on the badge, the purple border was shining, and a dark aura shrouded the eye demon, and then the rejuvenated monster opened the only eye on the orb, the gaze was gentle and friendly, and it didn't look like an evil creature no matter how it looked.
"Occam, Eye of Insight, listen, you can't die yet." The priestess held the emblem and said in a deep voice.
The Eye Demon swept his gaze to the Divine Emblem in her hand, glanced at the Deity Emblem on it, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he said with a fluctuation of thought: "You are indeed the believers of the Night Lady......
"Don't talk nonsense!"
The black-robed female priestess's eyes faintly glowed, and she shouted, "Are you sure this is the weakest part of the magic wall?" Ocam, the eye of insight, you should know the consequences of cheating the Night Lady's followers. β
"Hahaha...... "The Eye Demon's mind was laughing, and it took a long time before he stopped and said coldly: "No matter what, I will die because I know something I shouldn't know." However, before I die, I want to see with my own eyes what the monster that destroyed the ancient empire looks like. β
The priestess was silent.
Soon, the excavator's surprise cheer came from the passage: "It's through!" Dig through! β
Bang.
A strange wave of magic poured out of the piercing passage. The Hero Kali pulled out his black two-handed greatsword inserted in the dirt and said in a deep voice, "Quick, everyone follow me in!" (To be continued.) )
