Chapter 128: The Book of Kings (Remnant)
"I wonder what the old gentleman is looking for us? We are being withdrawn", for fear that this old elf would deal with himself because of the break-in Itherine, Lin Chen prepared the skill of blocking prediction on the one hand, and on the other hand, he also prepared a random teleportation scroll.
As long as one is wrong, you can use Kedang Prediction to help Isherine buy time to escape, or you can use a random teleportation scroll to escape.
"It's rare for a person like you to be able to judge the situation, avoid the evil, and be willing to leave the treasure in the mausoleum", nodded, the old elf looked at Lin Chen with some appreciation, and at the same time kept looking Lin Chen up and down, seemed to be very satisfied with Lin Chen, and kept nodding.
"No matter how good a baby is, you have to have a life to use it, right?" , did not relax his vigilance in the slightest, but Lin Chen said with a smile, his face showing that he was already relaxed.
However, it's a pity that this old elf doesn't know that it is an old monster who has lived for many years, and he saw Lin Chen's trick very thoroughly, waved his hand, and said very easily: "Okay, okay, don't be so nervous, if I want to deal with you, I will make a quick move."
Unexpectedly, the vigilance in his heart was still seen through by the other party, Lin Chen smiled a little embarrassedly, and did not speak again, since this old elf took the initiative to appear, and there was no malicious intent, then there must be something else that appeared, so Lin Chen didn't say anything more, waiting for the other party to take the initiative to say something.
Sure enough, seeing that Lin Chen didn't mean to speak, the old elf smiled and said lightly: "I saw that you came into this mausoleum to see if there is a treasure in it, how about I give you a treasure now?" ”。
Speaking of this, the old elf flipped through his hand, and a pale silver cover appeared in his hand, the silver cover, with a strange light flowing on it, as soon as this book appeared, Lin Chen's eyes were immediately attracted by this book.
Although it is just a book, Lin Chen, who is a supreme-level foundry, knows very well that this book is definitely a special magic prop, and it is very strong, it should be something above the supreme level, this kind of thing, the time it takes to cast it should be calculated in years, and if he doesn't know the casting methods and conditions, even if he has the strength of a supreme-level caster, it is redundant.
"It's worthy of being a person who is used to seeing good things, and he really knows the goods", looking at Lin Chen's eyes, the satisfaction on the face of the old elf became even stronger, and he said with a smile.
"How? Do you like this book of kings? Raising the book with the silver cover in his hand, the old elf asked, making Lin Chen helpless, although Lin Chen also knew that this was definitely tempting himself, but it was undeniable that Lin Chen had been tempted, and this kind of thing could not be found.
"Okay, I admit that your temptation was successful, let's say, what are the conditions", after hesitating for a moment, Mentor Lin Chen said very shamefully, but Iseline next to her was looking at Lin Chen and this old elf left and right, and couldn't interject.
"This is known as the Tomb of the Lost King, do you know who the Lost King is?" , did not directly open his mouth to put forward his conditions, this old elf instead opened his mouth to ask Lin Chen, Lin Chen did not answer, he knew that this old elf would definitely take the initiative to continue.
Sure enough, seeing that Lin Chen didn't speak, the old elf was stuck in a memory, and opened his mouth to explain the matter of the tomb of the Lost King...... It turns out that the name of the Lost King is Tifara, and he is a fallen dark elf, but, before the fall, he was a genius of the elf race, and a rare strong man, and this old elf used to be a pair of friends, in the elf race, Tifara always has the aura of genius on his head, this old elf never left in the tomb of the Lost King, and he doesn't know how many years ago it was, at that time, various races on the continent fought for survival, At that time, Tifara and this old man were the commanders of the elven vanguard army, fighting on the mainland.
Originally, these were understandable things, at that time, almost all the races on the continent were fighting each other for survival, but, on the last day, suddenly, the elven army led by Tifara and this old elf lost their backup, and the reinforcements that were supposed to come did not arrive for a long time.
In desperation, Tifara and the old elf, chased by humans, had to withdraw from this forest that no one had ever set foot in.
As an elf, known as the darling of nature, the elves in the forest are above those humans in terms of combat effectiveness, so they got rid of the pursuit of those humans, and they also successfully captured some of the pursuing humans.
Deeper and deeper into the forest, these elven armies were finally stationed within the range of eighth-level and ninth-level demonic beasts, and those captured humans also became slaves of the elves, but because of the lack of support from the elves, Tifara has been haunted, and finally, one day, Tifara fell and became an evil dark elf.
As Tifala degenerated into a dark elf, countless elven armies left him and fled out of the forest, but after the fall, Tifala's strength increased greatly and successfully killed countless elven armies.
In the end, except for a few elves who managed to escape, only those elves who fell with Tifala and turned into evil dark elves survived, and all the other elves were killed by Tifara's madness.
At the last moment, this old elf clan had to pick up the treasure elven heart in the battle and seal Tifara directly, and the place where the seal was sealed was in this mausoleum, using the elf heart, this old elf guarded the mausoleum and never appeared again, forever suppressing Tifara inside.
Those elves who were killed by Tifala were also buried here, to be honest, although this place is known as the tomb of the Lost King, but the real Lost King Tifara did not die, but was sealed by the heart of the elves, but it became the tomb of those elves who were killed by Tifara.
But it's a pity that as Tifala's strength gets stronger and stronger, the Elven Heart's suppression of him is getting weaker and weaker day by day, and the dark power that Tifala overflows even infected the corpses of those elves and turned them into evil undead creatures.
This mausoleum has become a forbidden place, no one has come in, even those remaining dark elves, they think that this is the place where their lost king is buried, and they dare not desecrate it, but this old elf needs to suppress Tifara, so he can't leave, until today, Lin Chen and Iseline, two outsiders, broke into the ...... "Continental Race Survival War?" Hearing the story told by the old elf, Iseline couldn't help but exclaim, "I remember seeing it in ancient documents, but there are not many records, but it wasn't until the battle lasted for decades, and that was more than 5,000 years ago."
"More than 5,000 years? More than 5,000 years have passed......", hearing Iseline's exclamation, this old elf with boundless emotion, did not expect that in this dim mausoleum, he would actually stay for more than 5,000 years.
"More than five thousand years!?" , Hearing Iseline's words, Lin Chen was also taken aback, you must know that the history of China was only five years ago, and it is also known as one of the four ancient civilizations, but thinking that the murals in this mausoleum can't help but be corroded by time and blurred, and those cabinets have been corroded to the point that they can't be seen, Lin Chen is also relieved.
"Okay, before you know it, there will be more words, it's really not good for people to get old", coming back to his senses from his emotion, the old elf shook his head, his face was straight, and he stared at Lin Chen seriously and said: "The Book of Kings!" It's my treasure! As long as you can help me go to the Elven Forest to find out why those reinforcements didn't arrive, find out the truth, and eliminate Tifara's depraved anger, my book of kings will be given to you."
"Please......", hearing that it was actually this condition, Lin Chen rolled his eyes helplessly, "That was more than 5,000 years ago, where can I still find it now?" Besides, I don't even know where the Elven Forest is, don't you think it's child's fun to give me this task? ”。
"Five thousand years, I think there should be a lot of those guys left behind, as long as you go to the Elven Forest and find the Elves who have also experienced the battle of races before, they will definitely know, and you don't know the map of the Elven Forest, but I know, I can give it to you."
"Uh......", when he heard that it was more than five thousand years ago, Lin Chen wanted to refuse, but when he heard the words of this old elf, Lin Chen hesitated.
Yes, this old elf can live for more than 5,000 years, so can't the elves in the forest of elves? The lifespan of the elves is not comparable to that of the human race, and the map of the elven forest, this old elf knows it himself, so if it is calculated, the task here is just an errand task.
"Trigger the seven-star quest 'Lost Causes', ask to investigate the reason why the elven reinforcements did not arrive 5,000 years ago, the task rewards 200 million experience, rewards Soul Gathering Stone*1, accept/reject."
The prompt of the task lit up, making Lin Chen's heart tremble, although the amount of 200 million experience is huge, but this is not the thing that makes Lin Chen the most excited, what makes Lin Chen's heart the most is the Soul Gathering Stone.
Although this is just a special consumable and can only be used once, the function of this kind of thing makes Lin Chen unable to refuse, and even more important than the Book of Kings issued by the old elf.
In the game "Damnation", only the profession of priest has resurrection skills, which can resurrect other players, but even if it is resurrection, it can only resurrect others, but there is also a special consumable in "Damnation", that is, the Soul Gathering Stone, as long as it is placed in the backpack, when the character dies, it can be resurrected by relying on the Soul Gathering Stone.
If the priest's resurrection technique is to resurrect others, then the Soul Stone is something to resurrect himself, and for Lin Chen in the real world, is there anything more exciting than the last chance to resurrect? No! Absolutely nothing!
A book of kings has already made Lin Chen a little moved, and now, with a reward of 200 million experience points and a soul gathering stone, well, Lin Chen admitted that he was completely stunned by these rewards.
In the game, because the player can be resurrected infinitely, coupled with the existence of a priest with resurrection skills, the role of the Soul Gathering Stone is infinitely weakened, but in this real world, Lin Chen has to admit that no one can resist the temptation of the Soul Gathering Stone.
Just after thinking about it carefully, and after finding that there was nothing special, Lin Chen directly took this task down, and at the same time, he raised his head and looked at the old elf in front of him, and said, "You want me to help you with your errands, just let me help you with such empty words?" At least give a deposit or something like that, right? ”。
"Uh......", hearing Lin Chen's words, this old elf was stunned, but he also knew that if he didn't give Lin Chen a little sweetness, people might not necessarily help him do such a difficult thing.
Moreover, I have been waiting for 5,000 years, only waiting for this time, and next time an outsider will come in, I don't know what year and month I will have to wait, I am already old, and I don't know if I can wait for the next group of people.
Therefore, with such a calculation in his heart, this old elf didn't say anything, and directly unfolded the Book of Kings, tore it in half, and threw half of it towards Lin Chen, "This is half of the Book of Kings, although it is only half, and the function is greatly reduced, but, I believe you should be satisfied, as long as you complete my task, you can come to me and take down half of the Book of Kings."
Reaching out to catch the Book of Kings that he threw over, Lin Chen hurriedly looked down at the information of the Book of Kings in his hand, and at the same time, the information of the Book of Kings also jumped into Lin Chen's eyes.
Book of Kings (Remnant): A legendary-level special magic item, it is the treasure of the high-level elf Fanar, although it is only half, but it still contains great power.
Incidental skill 1: King Domain, the king's dignity cannot be trampled on, causing a caste suppression effect on the target, completely suppressed below level 100, the higher the target strength above level 100, the lower the suppression effect, and the cooldown time is 10 days.
Incidental skill 2: The Wrath of the King, the Wrath of the King, the blood is flowing like a river, you can carry out a single attack on the target, the attack increases by 100% +10000, requires MP2000 points, and the cooldown time is 24 days.
Attached skill 3: The eye of the king, the king's eye cannot be blinded, it can break most of the stealth illusions, the higher the target level, the lower the possible surname, consume 20 mp points per second, no cooldown.
Stupid, looking at the remnant of the Book of Kings in his hand, Lin Chen was stupid, this is just a fragment, it is a legendary-level magic prop, and the surname is so strong, what if it is the entire Book of Kings? How tough would that be?
Earn over! This is Lin Chen's only thought now, although this time the tomb of the Lost King was not opened, but this mutilated version of the Book of Kings made Lin Chen ecstatic, not to mention that he also obtained the special skill of Shadow Devouring.
