515 Selected Battlefields
Although the body of Mount Wesura is a nine-story tower-shaped structure, its scale can be compared to more than just a tower.
On the first floor, starting from the huge plaza with an area of tens of thousands of square meters after entering the gate, there are a total of four main passages for players to choose from.
Even if you don't get lost, get distracted by traps, or get caught up in a tough battle with the monsters, it will take you an average of about four hours to get up to one of the four huge spiral stairs to the central plaza on the second level.
The second layer of Mount Wesula, although the area is smaller than the first layer, the path design of the maze is also more complex and confusing, and the traps and monsters that infest it are also more powerful. If it is a qiē shun lì, it will take about six hours for the player to reach the third layer with great difficulty.
And so on.
Even if the strength is sufficient, if there is not enough time, it is impossible for the player to reach the ninth layer. It's not easy to get the chance to fight the "Red Ghost" head-on.
However, this time Gordon did not intend to push forward layer by layer.
Unless there is a direct elevator, he has eight hours left now, which is simply not enough. He needed to bring down God's iniquity. And the flat and empty space on the first floor, which was simply transformed into a square by a natural cave, was the battlefield he chose.
At this time, when Gordon and his team entered the mountains, they found that the square was empty, and those who had used the square to camp and rest, or exchange information, and find temporary teammates. Or the players who bought and sold the items, all of them are gone. In the small camps built by the players, there are only vultures crackling and burning bonfires and warm sleeping bags. Sue them not so long ago, there were still many players here.
"Hmph, those greedy guys. He must have heard the news of the opening of the so-called treasure house, and he didn't even have time to pack his things, so he hurried into the labyrinth. ”
Tent sleeping bags, tents, pots and pans, bulky and worthless daily necessities that take time to pack. was directly dropped by the group of adventurers who were full of "secret treasures".
"It's okay, we just do our thing. I'm sure it won't be long before those guys run back again. Reunite with their bottles and cans. ”
Gordon took his wand and came to the gates of Mount Wesula.
This brown wand has a simple shape, with a slightly circular protrusion and three strangely shaped black stone chips on the straight and smooth body of the wand. Suspended around the bulge. It constantly circulates like a planet moving around a star.
In reality, this wand must be a high-level mage who is proficient in the spells of the School of Change, and has at least reached the attainment of the Nine Rings, before it can be made. Fortunately, Gordon relied on his identity as the "Illusion Creator" and the assistance of the Origin Creation Zào Disk to create it.
Such a precious magic prop, in fact, to put it bluntly. It is the "Luxury Exclusive 10th Anniversary Upgrade" of Gordon's commonly used Architect's Staff.
It is still an architect's staff, but with the ability to manipulate earth and stone shaping. It has been greatly enhanced to make greater changes to rocks and soils, affecting a wider area, and using them more often.
Gordon took the wand and pointed at the gate of Mount Waisula, shooting a brown beam of light that seemed to be surrounded by mud and sand.
After the beam of light entered the gate, in an instant, there was a "click" sound, which reached everyone's ears.
From the ground, black stone flakes like dragon scales began to grow and spread, and finally completely sealed the entire gate.
"Although the strength of this 'dragon scale rock' is not comparable to that of a real dragon scale, it has already surpassed ordinary steel by a lot. Now, after a while, those adventurers who were chased by the Seven Sins and cried and called their mother to run back to the square will not be able to leave the Waisula Mountains again—at least not until we defeat the gods. ”
The gray dwarf couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine when he saw Gordon finish saying these words with a flat expression.
Gordon is determined to force all the other adventurers in this mountain to the point of having to fight with their backs.
"Fortunately, I'm just a wage earner who obediently receives five gold coins a day, if I am an enemy of this mage...... The consequences are unimaginable. The gray dwarf touched his neck and breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, the warrior monk Clevisy suddenly frowned and said, "Gordon, the power of the Seven Sins is rising rapidly. ”
When he was in the adventurer's camp before, while interfering with the eating of the Seven Sins, the warrior monk also injected a trace of "qi" with a tracking and detection effect into the black power of guilt.
The Seven Sins are creatures composed of energy, and the power of sinful desires that are dispersed to prey on the source energy of life can also be regarded as a part of their bodies. After those black energies were cut off by the warrior monks, some of them disappeared, but some of them returned to the bodies of the Seven Sins. It was precisely this opportunity that the warrior monk took advantage of to inject a trace of his own qi into the body of the Seven Sins.
So no matter what the monster is moving now, Gordon and his party can understand it clearly.
"It is estimated that after that guy entered the Vessoula Mountains, he couldn't help it in the face of such a dense group of delicious food. Coupled with the fact that it was far from being completely restored, and there was only one last step left to promote the legend, all kinds of temptations added up, and it was not long before entering the mountain that it was impatient to move its mouth. ”
Such a development is in Gordon's plan. He'd done so much to make preparations to kill the gods, and he's done. If nothing drastic happens, then everything will continue according to Gordon's expectations.
Seeing that the decisive battle is coming, the attitude of the team members has also changed.
Sigrid found a stone and sat down, took out a magic whetstone from his dimensional bag, and gently drew a little spark on his elven sword. Her red eyes stared at the glittering blade, her lips pursed, and she didn't say a word.
With a compass in hand, Venia wandered around the square for a while, and then finally chose her direction, surrounded by rocks from top to bottom, left and right. She knelt down on her knees, placed a bouquet of lavender and a bouquet of balista in front of her knees, and closed her eyes.
Gordon knew that she was praying to the sacred tree "Lacrogan", located in the depths of the endless forest.
In the game, Lacrogan is the essence of the force of nature, the spiritual pillar of all druids. By praying to it through a specific ritual of guò, players of the Druid class will be able to gain a buff called "Sacred Tree Blessing", which can be very useful in battle.
Among the three girls, Ania, the youngest and most difficult to calm down, also honestly found a quiet corner at this time, closed her eyes, and began to prepare spells.
The process of preparing a spell for a warlock is much easier than for a mage, but it can't be as easy for them to cast a spell as it is to use a spell-like ability, so it's better to prepare early than to rush when the time comes.
The warrior monk sat on the ground, cross-legged and closed his eyes, adjusting his state while tracking the movements of the Seven Sins according to that trace of qi.
The Grey Dwarf seems to be the most laid-back one. He was holding a cowhide water bag filled with mellow wine, and he took small sips by himself. Gordon knew that as long as the guy could still drink, there would be no problem. If one day, the gray dwarf suddenly becomes indifferent to even a large glass of ale in front of him, then there is nothing to worry about.
And the knight Akinhan finally got rid of the state of worrying about his wife's medical expenses. He walked up to Gordon with a stern face and asked, "Captain, have you chosen this square as a battlefield for us to fight against the gods?" ”
"What, can't you?" Seeing that Akinhan was also getting serious, Gordon discussed his battle with him, and asked, "What do you have to say, come and listen." ”
"It's not a good idea. With my ability, I can ask questions in front of you at best, not solve them. Akinhan humbly touched his nose and continued, "I just think that in such an empty place where there are almost no obstacles or bunkers, it seems very disadvantageous to fight the gods. This kind of powerful giant monster must have many range attack methods. Only an environment with complex terrain that allows you to dodge and disperse attacks is suitable for fighting that kind of enemy. ”
"Of course I understand what you're saying. It is precisely because of this that I chose this empty and flat square as the venue for the decisive battle. ”
Gordon held up an enhanced version of the Architect's Staff in his hand: "Because it's like a blank canvas for me to paint as I want." ”
He raised his wand and pointed forward, a little, and then a wave. Filled with changes that can change the nature and shape of the earth, light shoots out from the head of the rod and sinks into the ground. Then, with Gordon's movements, a rumbling sound came from underfoot. Ajinhan was surprised to find that a stone wall slowly rose and appeared in his sight.
With a flick of his wrist, Gordon flicked his wand, and shot a gray ray of energy at the newly created stone wall.
The stone walls, which were originally made of ordinary rock, have changed from grayish white to a deep blue-black. In the textures on the wall, some shiny crystalline bumps also appeared.
"What is this?" In Akinhan's body of knowledge, there is obviously no information about this particular rock in front of him.
Gordon explained with a smile: "This kind of stone is called 'lead crystal'. Although the hardness is no different from that of ordinary rock, it has one of the biggest characteristics: it has excellent barrier properties for one qiē energy. ”
Ajinhan thought for a moment and nodded: "I understand." ”
In the world of Telos, energy is penetrating to matter. That's why there is a "ghost through the wall", which almost always appears in ghost novels. So if the mercenaries want to sweep through a catacombs that are inhabited by many ghosts, they must prepare weapons enchanted with energy damage. (To be continued......)
