Chapter 588: A large sewing needle
Alpine Town. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The day passed in a blink of an eye, and early the next morning, the people of Gaoshan Town woke up as usual, lit a fire and cooked, and in a short time, the smoke of the cooking mixed with the white mist of the mountains, and swirled in the air.
'Wang~Wang~' There were a few dog barks at the entrance of the town, which meant that another stranger had entered the town, but the dog barking quickly subsided, which showed that the stranger who came was very ordinary, and there was nothing special on the surface.
And that seems to be the case.
At the entrance of the town, an ox cart drove into the town of Gaoshan with seven or eight out-of-town pedestrians, men and women, all dressed in shabby clothes and with tired faces, and carrying some very rudimentary iron weapons around their waists or on their backs.
In Alpine Town, such people are all too common, mercenaries who want to change their fate, and they go into the southern forests to try their luck and collect valuable things such as rare and beautiful birds, precious herbs, animal skins, and so on.
Basically, if 100 mercenaries come, at least more than 30 people will throw their lives in the forest, and the remaining 70 people, more than 60 people, will have little to gain and can only make ends meet. The rest of the harvest is relatively considerable, and one may be lucky enough to make a windfall.
These mercenaries are dressed shabbyly, and the townspeople and dogs have seen a lot, and they are too lazy to take a look.
Once in the mountain town, the mercenaries dismounted, and they usually found a sheltered place in the town to rest, eat a full meal, and recuperate before entering the forest.
Among the mercenaries was a woman who looked to be in her thirties, with a mediocre appearance, a bloated figure, long greasy hair casually coiled on top of her head, two hand axes in her hands, and leather armor full of holes.
She followed the mercenary all the way, and when she passed a small building, she glanced at it intentionally or unintentionally, and then continued to follow the flow of people.
Everything looks pretty normal.
There is a large courtyard in the small building that the mercenaries pass by, which is exactly where the Ethereal Prince Harrow Maid is hiding, and in the courtyard, Link and the others are observing this group of mercenaries.
Link said softly, "This is the third batch of mercenaries to come this morning, Evelyna, do you think that woman looks like Avril?" ”
Evelyna shook her head without thinking: "No way, Avril is a noble elf princess, how could she dress herself up like this." When you look at her hair, it's as disgusting as a piece of. ”
Celine also shook her head: "I don't think so, this should be the most ordinary mercenary." ”
"Why don't you try her?" Elite said.
Before he could finish speaking, Evelyna stretched out her hand and pointed at the distant mercenary, and whispered, "Go!" ”
A thumb-sized stone flew from the ground, and flew towards the back of the mercenary's head, the speed of the stone was as fast as lightning, as long as it hit, the opponent's head exploded and died.
Half a second later, the stone crossed 300 meters and reached the back of the female mercenary's head, the other party was unaware, and was laughing loudly with a male mercenary next to him, and reached out to hit the other party, and the male mercenary jumped a few steps away with a prodigal look.
At the last moment, Evelina stopped the stone, and at this time, the stone had almost touched the mercenary's hair, and after losing its strength support, the stone fell to the ground with a 'poof', and it was only then that the mercenary heard the sound in hindsight, looked back suspiciously, and when she saw that there was nothing unusual, she took a few steps closer and caught up with his companion.
"It's an ordinary person." Evelyna said.
During the whole process, Link didn't see any traces of disguise, and the other party's performance was natural, this was just a female mercenary at the bottom.
"That's true" Link's voice hesitated slightly, not to suspect the woman, but that he always felt that something was wrong, but when he thought about it, he couldn't figure out what was wrong.
After thinking about it, he could only say, "Okay, there's no need to watch it." Nine times out of ten, Avril has already sneaked into Alpine Town, but we don't know where she's hiding for now..... We don't have to look for her, we just need to be prepared. ”
Avril is a level 10 powerhouse, Link is level 11, and she can be suppressed at the level of strength, and with Evelyna's help, as long as she is prepared, even if Avril wants to intervene, she can't change the situation.
The four of them nodded and turned back to the wooden building.
There is a very spacious basement in this building, and there is a remote spatial teleportation magic circle in the basement, and Link believes that Prince Haromed will come out of this spatial magic circle nine times out of ten.
Originally, what they wanted to prevent was Prince Harromed's escape, and they only needed to prevent one-way attacks, but now, they also had to prevent Avril from sneaking up on the outer layer, so they had to add a powerful defensive magic to the outer layer.
Just do it.
In the basement, Link is in charge of building the magic core, Evelyna is in charge of polishing the corners, Elette is working on it, watching and learning, and Celine is in charge of guarding outside the wooden building.
The three magicians worked together, and the progress was fast, but in just two hours, there was a very thick space defense magic array outside the confinement magic array on the outer layer of the remote space teleportation magic array.
Once operational, this magic circle can block attacks from any magic at level 12 or below. With such a power as a guarantee, there should be no need to worry about Avril making trouble halfway.
However, even so, the uneasiness in Link's heart did not abate, and this time, he did not show it, but he was fully vigilant.
After completing the magic array, everyone had nothing to do, so they rested in the wooden building to recuperate their energy, and after about three hours, Link suddenly opened his eyes.
"Ready, here!" He could already feel that the space in the basement of the wooden building was beginning to tremble, and even the wooden floor in the wooden building shook slightly, making a soft sound of 'creak~creak~', which was a sign that would only appear when the remote space magic array was running.
Everyone suddenly looked awe-inspiring.
"Evelyna, when he appears, you immediately activate the Spatial Confinement Magic Array."
"Understood."
"Ellett, you stand in a good position, in case of an accident, trigger this rune stone to stimulate a torrent of energy and kill him!"
This runestone took a lot of work and cost a lot of money, and it was the product of the cooperation of the magicians of the field, and only one piece was made, and the magic torrent was stimulated as high as level 13, which was used to prevent accidents.
"I see." Elite took the rune stone and stood on the rune seat prepared by Yuxian.
"Celine, you stand here, when the magic array is activated, a powerful shield will appear on you in an instant. Magical ripples that appear after the shield is generated may interfere with your vision, so be sure to hold it steady and wait for the shield to settle before firing, and be sure to hit the Ethereal Prince! ”
"Don't worry, leave it to me!" Celine had a solemn face, she stood on the pre-determined rune position with a large musket, the space here was specially modified by Link, only she could see others, but others could not see her, it was the safest place in the entire wooden building.
Everyone had already rehearsed many times, and at this time, in just half a second, everyone was in place.
The spatial fluctuations in the basement continued to intensify, and the opponent was alert, Link didn't take any action on his side, just waiting for the other party to appear for a moment, and then he sent a killing blow to the opponent's body!
Link also took out the Ethereal Trap.
So far, no accidents have happened, about 2 seconds later, a silver-white light cluster suddenly appeared above the magic array in the basement, and the light cluster instantly expanded, reaching a diameter of about two meters, turning into a light gate.
From the door, he could vaguely see the scene on the other side, it seemed to be a very tall black fortress, Link looked at it in his heart, he recognized this fortress, it was the lair of the shadow walker Morpheus, the Dark Shrine.
After the space door lasted for half a second, a figure walked out of the space door.
The guy was dressed in a gray-white cloth robe, with an off-white hood on his head, and his whole body was tightly covered, and as soon as he appeared, Evelyna told Link with her lips, "He's right." ”
This is none other than Harrow Maid, Prince of the Ethereal.
The moment he stepped out of the spatial door, a message flashed in Link's eyes, the task of finding clues to the Ethereal Prince was completed, and he obtained the Moon Stone.
Another mission appeared at the same time, and he quickly glanced at it, and saw that the name of the mission was to kill the Prince of the Ethereal Spirit, and he immediately chose to accept it.
On the other side, Evelyna did not hesitate to make a move, the natural dragon power in her body quickly poured into the magic array, and under her feet, countless magic runes overlapped, lighting up from the inside out, and in just one hundredth of a second, this space was filled with a large number of runes.
They were like an anchor, firmly pinning this space, and under the influence of this magic, the space door behind the Ethereal Prince flickered a few times, and then disappeared like a candle in the wind, ruthlessly abandoning him alone in the death trap set by Link and the others.
At the same time, on the outer layer of the Spatial Confinement Magic Array, a level 12 spatial barrier with a thickness of more than one meter emerged, covering everything in this wooden building.
So far, everything has gone according to plan and has gone very well.
But for some reason, the feeling of uneasiness in Link's heart became more and more intense, almost to the extent that it affected his normal spell casting, driven by this feeling, he did not attack the Ethereal Prince, but walked to Celine's side to protect nearby.
Almost at the same time, he saw that in the space behind Celine, a dark green wooden sword slowly peeked out of the air, it was so secretive, so inconspicuous, all the killing machines were hidden, like a shadow hunter lurking in the sea of space.
The appearance of this sword is very unique, the overall appearance is dark green, the shape is very thin, it looks like an oversized sewing needle, if it is discarded on the main road, it will definitely be mistaken for a rusty thin iron rod.
As soon as he saw this appearance, Link's heart jumped: "It's not good, it's actually the World Impaler!" (To be continued.) )
