CHAPTER XIV



The massive circular tomb of the Night Song Elves is not simply a paradise for the dead. In fact, for the Nightsong, the Tomb City is also a refuge for the living in times of crisis.

When it comes to long-term residence, the functions and names of the buildings in the cemetery have increased, such as the location where Luo Ling is now, listening to Egnes's explanation, there is a very special name - gimmick field (after translation).

The original meaning of the gimmick was: a place of laughter and shouting. Such a name has nothing to do with the elegance and knowledge of the elves in Luo Ling's impression. What's even more outrageous is that the real function of the gimmick is basically the same as that of the gladiatorial arena in ancient Rome, except that it was not the slave gladiators who used their wisdom and blood to compete here, but the brave warriors of the Nightsong tribe. In this way, it seems that the meaning of its existence is a higher level than that of the gladiatorial arena, not to please anyone or others, but to cultivate the 'bestiality' of strong warriors and people.

Luo Ling did not like such a product, but he also admitted that barbaric customs and habits were more suitable for breeding a fierce race than gentle and elegant. Of course, it's not just the physique that makes such a warrior strong.

It seems that things that have been precipitated by time are always full of a mysterious and vicissitudes of charm, and in Luo Ling's view, the building in front of him has this charm.

The gray boulder piles up the arena in front of you with more than 30,000 square meters of arena alone, and the simple and clumsy architectural style makes its existence a little unique and extraordinary in the exquisite and gorgeous dungeon buildings. The mottled stone walls and rocky floors, the marks of weapons and the black, dried blood marks. It silently narrates countless stories of magnificent, beautiful, poignant, or touching battles, which makes people's hearts sway, and they can't help but think about it.

"Your Highness, we wouldn't have had to cross here." That being said, Agnes still followed Luo Ling into the gimmick arena.

Luo Ling curled the corners of his mouth slightly, he knew the meaning of Agnes's words, but he was fearless. He is good at winning by surprise, but he also doesn't mind destroying and disintegrating enemies from a frontal angle. This time, his journey of conquest wants the other party to be convinced.

"There is a trap, trample on it; If there is an enemy, defeat it; There is an obstruction, scatter it! ”

Striding to the center of the gimmickfield battle circle, Luo Ling closed his eyes slightly, and raised his head with his arms held high, like a victor who was receiving countless cheers.

"I heard the roar of a landslide and tsunami, I saw countless hot eyes, fanatical faces, I felt the roar of countless war spirits; There is a remnant of the breath of warriors here, and this is a sacred and noble place for warriors. Only the strong are revered here. I want you to wait and see if you have the will to remain here, because I will be the new uncrowned king here. ”

Silver light burst out from Luo Ling's body, turning into a halo, spreading the language he shouted with his soul to every corner, and at the same time, his fighting spirit was high, and the 'potential' he had stored rose to a new level.

Agnis stopped and looked at Luo Ling, the surprise on his face could not be concealed. The language of the soul, which is said to be a power that only gods who specialize in death can understand.

It was as if Luo Ling's actions had triggered a certain mechanism here. As soon as the silver light dissipated, the veil of silence began to peel away from here. In the stone basin on the dome and the rock pillars, the purple fire was blazing, and the light was shining, and in the sound of the air tearing, countless blue starlight gathered from the darkness to this gimmick, and finally turned into a hazy human phantom. The gimmick is no longer deserted and empty, as if going back in time, and returning to the moment of loud voices and gladiatorial battles thousands of years ago.

Agnes retreated in silence towards the edge of the field, and a gloomy gloom flashed in his eyes the moment he turned around.

A handful of bright light lit up in the void in the arena, as if it was the attraction of a magnet to metal powder, and the free dark energy, like an actor who came to the front from behind the scenes, turned into a bundle, and then became several thick pillars of light, converging on this handful of light. Thus, a deep door to an unknown plane was opened.

The whistle was like thunder, resounding through the gimmick. A beast emerges from a spiral of purple-black light mist that rotates and expands.

At first glance, this humanoid monster has a thick gray-black skin like a rhinoceros, but in fact it is an extremely tight cascading scale armor, and in the light of the fire, it glows with layers of waves, giving people the illusion of flowing water. The pair of fierce eyes on the face of the hideous beast were not much smaller than the fists of adults, and the turquoise flame light continued to gush from these fierce eyes, like two torches, rippling with the shaking of the beast's head. Knock Knock...... When the huge hooves hit the ground, the sound was as heavy as beating a big drum, and although the beast was hunchbacked, with long arms on the ground and bent legs, it was still more than 4 meters tall.

With a serpent's bifurcated tongue scarlet like blood, animal teeth as sharp as cone thorns, and a wide mouth as big as a mouth, the 'blood basin' is no longer a metaphor, but an appropriate description. When the beast pounced, like a mountain peak, it made people feel an irresistible sense of despair.

Just as the giant beast pounced, Luo Ling, who seemed to have completely calculated its movements, jumped high, and the 'momentum' erupted when he jumped to the highest point, and at that moment, Luo Ling turned into an axe, an axe that could cut through mountains and seas; At that moment, the giant beast was like a firefly under the bright moon in front of Luo Ling, small and weak.

Without any skill, with Luo Ling's right foot as the core, the energy was so strong that it formed a visible cone-shaped light, sandwiched with the sound of rolling wind and thunder, shot down!

Rumble! The giant beast that had not yet been completely contained was poured diagonally into the solid rocky ground, and countless large and small boulders rolled and arched as a result, nearly one-third of the ground of the field cracked, and the air flowed at high speed, forming a strong wind, as if it was the blowing of the titan titan god, and the whistling sound was extremely sharp.

Oh...... The giant beast expressed its anger with a roar, and the damage caused by Luo Ling's strong blow to it seemed to be extremely limited, shrugging its shoulders and shaking off the gravel and dust on its body, the giant beast just jumped up, and Luo Ling's second blow arrived with great precision.

It was a blast that swung from the left side of the behemoth, once again bringing the light that formed the actual energy fluctuations. The giant beast seemed to have tasted an old punch from the Titan on its cheek, and its body of more than 1 ton was completely knocked out, spinning and sweeping across half of the field, and crashed into the stone steps of the stands with a bang, smashing out a pit with a huge diameter, and countless dust and gravel shot into the sky, startling more than a hundred soul phantoms.

The continuous heavy blows caused the giant beast's anger to reach a critical point and directly went berserk. I saw that between the cracks in the dense and fine scale armor like snakeskin on its body, while flipping and standing, it lit up with an orange-red light like a hell flame, the thick hairs like a lion's mane on its head exploded like steel needles, and a burst of constricted light lit up in its mouth like a space collapsing, and a bright fireball the size of a standard dining table erupted in an instant.

Luo Ling in the field was still calm and proud, inhaling, puffing out his chest, "Ha ......" Luo Ling's roar, the sound was even louder than the roar of the giant beast, and the sound wave passed through, and dust fell from the dome.

Boom! The blue fireball exploded and spread out like an easter egg, turning into countless tiny streams of flames and sparks splashing and falling.

One day, in the blue light, Luo Ling, who had scattered the giant beast's spit attack with the breath of the roar alone, flew to meet the big man who pounced on the blue fireball.

It was as if a piece of flying pig iron had collided with the bullet that had been ejected, and it was still the huge beast that failed, and it flew back upside down at a faster speed than when it came, and with a bang, the pit that had been smashed out before became bigger and deeper this time.

Eventually, the pain exceeded the limit of the beast's patience, and its left chest was visibly dented, and the 'fierce flame' on its body that seemed to overflow was almost gone. His eyes were gloomy, and orange-red blood was pouring out of the corners of his mouth. The beast struggled to its feet, its staggering form betraying its power.

The figure flashed, Luo Ling had already appeared in front of it, grabbed it with his hand, and with a wave, the giant beast was thrown into the sky by him like a puppet, and then, the lilac energy light cluster trapped the giant beast and quietly suspended it in the air.

"Your Highness, it offended you, why didn't you kill it?" Agnis became the slave who was always at his master's side, serving carefully.

"What would you do if someone lured a saber-toothed demon leopard into attacking you?" Luo Ling asked rhetorically.

"Kill the leopard, find that person, torture, kill." Agnes replied without any hesitation.

"That's the biggest difference between you and me." Luo Ling said without a trace of emotion, and walked towards the other exit of the gimmick.

"Is it conquest? You'd rather stomp your opponents under your feet than give them a kick! It's relieved, and at the same time there are slaves to use, and it's really far-sighted...... "Egnes followed behind, and at the same time patted the sycophants without being salty.

Luo Ling was silent.

Seeing that Luo Ling was silent and did not have any expression to reflect, Agnes asked tentatively: "Is it because you don't care about the stupid things that are being used, but you want to settle accounts with the instigators behind the scenes?" Straight to the heart of the matter, too wise and wise......"

"I believe now that you are indeed a native demon. Finishing" Luo Ling's words are still flat and emotionless.

"Born and raised?" Confusion flashed in Egnes' eyes, and it muttered Luo Ling's words in a low voice, savoring it for a while, "Could it be...... Compassion!? ......" may be that even he finds it ridiculous, Egnes's voice is low and ambiguous.

"I'll admit now that you're an old demon with much more knowledge and experience than ordinary demons."

Hearing Luo Ling say this, Agnes knew that it was clearly not expecting the 'truth' again.

With a bit of embarrassment of scratching his ears and cheeks, Agnes asked Luo Ling to give a 'correct solution' in a low voice.

Luo Ling did not proudly sell his opinions after satisfying the other party's appetite as Agnes imagined. He just said lightly: "There are 10,000 reasons, or even more than that, don't you think it's interesting to find the truth of that 1/10,000th truth?" For example, I am now looking for another 1 in 10,000 truth, who is manipulating all this behind my back, to make my enemies. ”

"Of course, it's the ancient and powerful demon spirit, who else has the ability to understand and trigger the ancient mechanism hidden in this underground city? Like the giant beast in the gimmickfield, the summoning spell in the confined space, this is not something that can be easily done with just a few sets of spells or some props from the summoner. ”

Luo Ling knew that what Agnes said was right. In a way, a plane ship is indeed equivalent to a confined space with only a fixed entrance. It is extremely difficult to open a door to another plane at any point in this space, so difficult that according to the general theory, a demon below the lord's strength level can not have this possibility.

The reason for this is not because of the perfection of the confined space used by the plane ship, but because of the singular purity of its composition. If the main plane is a powerful and rich smartphone, then the space architecture system of the plane ship is the first generation of mobile phones with single performance. From a software point of view, the latter does have a lower failure rate.

Luo Ling also knows that reality is not reasoning, and the statement that 'the more evidence is sufficient, the lower the suspicion' may not be applied to this incident. But past experience clearly told him that reality is sometimes more exaggerated, and it is entirely possible to have more unexpected situations than Zhongzhong, and the fact that demons have invaded the world has been well explained.

Luo Ling only believes that before getting the one-ten-thousandth truth, the truth is surrounded by a cloud of fog, and any subjective judgment may be arbitrary.

Although he didn't get along with Luo Ling for a long time, Agnes still made a preliminary assessment of him: although this son of the abyss was the darling of the newly promoted, he was by no means a high-spirited newborn calf. He is good at asking questions and less than answering. Obviously, it's not pretending to be profound, but so that others can't figure out what he really thinks. Serving such a master is hard and dangerous work, because you don't know when you have said the wrong thing, and you have been secretly written down.

"Fortunately, this kind of pain doesn't have to be endured for too long, and the one-in-ten thousandth reason doesn't have to be guesswork......" Egnes comforted himself inwardly.
