216 Illusion?! Treasure?!
The battle for map markers is raging, with everyone believing that their judgment is correct and constantly trying to convince other stubborn people who they see as being wrong. γLatest Chapter Readingγ
Finally, after an overly excited wolf also plotted to secretly press the paw prints on the stolen map, but the parchment completely shattered into four pieces due to power control problems, the whole world fell silent......
ββ¦β¦ Gray, the map costs 5 gold, plus the added value after exploration, the time it takes to have to re-purchase the map marker, and all the other and all kinds of expenses......"
The big wolf who made a big mistake had already hidden to the side in repentance and trembling, but Ash was still struggling in front of the desperate number that Lin Shu handed to him: "This is actually just an accident......
Accidentally?! It was easy for her to explore such a large area, which not only recorded the ancient battlefield, but also included the entire territory around the surface, including Dragon's Lair Village and nearby cities.
The parchment map scroll I bought again is completely black again, and how much time does it take to explore the range that is enough for reference again?! Not to mention marking it on it......
So Lin Shu, who didn't accept Ash's explanation, turned dark.
Ash thought for a moment and added, "And everyone is involved in ......"
The crowd was horrified and gasped...... It's so unjust!
After thinking about it in the expectant eyes of everyone, Lin Su nodded in agreement: "What you said is right. β
And then everybody's face darkened.
The goddess of victory will always be on the more shameless side, so in the end, Lin Su was relieved to collect the bill with an undisputed overwhelming advantage - it was shared by each of the various races, although the collection process would become more cumbersome because of this, but with Elf One, she believed that this little problem was not a problem at all......
Giving up the pursuit of the exploration of the mysterious woman, Lin Su led a group of people to firmly follow the instructions of the scales and continue to visit the next boss.
After the foreshadowing of the nightmare. Everyone thought that what they encountered next must be an unusually powerful magical creature, or at least a collection of resentful illusions, all in all, all kinds of tricky and hard battles...... But unexpectedly. Unconsciously, everyone walked into a quiet and peaceful paradise that was extremely weird.
No war, no quarrels. Youthful maidens and sturdy young men laugh and laugh in the mysteriously appearing city, surrounded by the shouting and shouting of vendors.
The whole city is clean and tidy. There was still a warm and dazzling sun in the sky......
"I think we're supposed to be in the Underground Ancient Battlefield, right?!" Lin Shu touched his chin and groaned.
"It's a fantasy." After a round of inspection, the demon general replied affirmatively: "No fluctuations in black magic have been found, and there is no abnormality in the surroundings at all, but it is clear that no matter how real the city is, it is impossible for the sun to appear underground." β
Elf One smiled and said, "It seems that there are only three of us left who are sober......"
"Humph!"
"And, of course, Blackie." Elf One was kind enough to add after someone's disgruntled snort.
The whole city is a huge illusion that began as early as the time you set foot in the area. Everyone began to be deluded, and then gradually and unconsciously, believing that the peaceful city they saw was real. Those who are strong-willed or resistant to dark magic are less distracted, but most are too weak here.
In the short period of time since he began to enter the illusion world, the only people around Lin Shu who are still awake are the demon general, elf number one and black brother. The rest of the people are all smiling idiots and happily blending into the lives of the surrounding residents......
"Is it a**?!" Lin Shu tugged at his hair and thought about it again. If the old dragon is right, the nightmare that the black brother has subdued should represent violence, and the two **oss left in the ancient battlefield are** and despair.
Obviously, this spring is bright, and it is certainly not suitable as a background for despair, so the only remaining options are the former.
The Demon General provided information on the magic illusion array: "If you want to break the illusion, you can only find the magician who is hidden in the illusion, otherwise it will be difficult for those who fall into the illusion to regain consciousness by their own ability...... Of course. We can also find these people who have fallen into the illusion one by one and find a way to pull them back, but this is obviously too cumbersome and troublesome. β
Do you spend a lot of time looking for and waking up your teammates to ensure your combat effectiveness in the face of the boss, or do you take a severely attritioned team to directly find the boss and challenge the opponent in order to break the illusion in an instant?!
The former is troublesome. The latter is dangerous. It's hard to say which situation makes Lin Su feel bigger.
"Forget it, let's go find the culprit who released the illusion, and if we meet a companion on the way, we will see if we can wake up, if we can't, we won't waste time."
The Demon General nodded: "That's a good idea, and in fact I don't really like wasting time." After a pause, he asked, "But aren't you worried about your elves?!" β
"They can be resurrected when they die, and besides, this illusion can also be regarded as a small exercise for them, and it was indeed my mistake to not consider the special training in this area before." Lin Shu shook his head regretfully: "Little one?!" β
Elf No. 1, who had a tacit understanding with Lin Shu, bowed with a smile and responded gently: "Yes, Your Majesty, if there are elves who can get out of the illusion on their own, I will be responsible for recording the length of time it takes them to get out of the illusion from now on, and then use this as a reference for their future training intensity." β
Lin Shu was relieved, Elf No. 1 really won her heart, it was too easy to have such an almighty butler.
After the course of action was discussed, the group began to go shopping and press the road to watch the excitement. No one knows where the boss is, and there is no so-called city lord's mansion in this city, so if you want to find the arranger of the illusion, you can only look around by luck.
Fortunately, Lin Shu and the others have a good mentality, whether they are trapped by the illusion or not, at least they are now close to the side of the boss, which is already a big improvement, so several people feel that there is really nothing to be anxious about. And I have to admit that everything that appears in this fantasy is extremely realistic, just like a real city in the surface world.
The NPCs even have their own different personalities and life backgrounds, as if they are the real natives who have lived here for hundreds of thousands of years. Lin Su even found a fairly good wandering dance troupe, and watched it with great interest for two hours, according to the Demon General, it should be a wonderful performance of ancient lost dance skills.
After watching dancing and juggling, and watching juggling and magic performances, out of the strong request of the magic generals, several people also took the time to find the chanting performance place of the most famous bard in the fantasy world, and heard a lot of poems that have long been sung by no one in the surface world because of their obsolescence and other relationships.
At the end of the bard's day's performance, a few people who had been playing all day with nothing were still leaving, and the demon general thought: "Although this is only a fantasy, it may be a great treasure in a sense." β
"What do you say?!"
"Obviously, the illusion was set up by the magical creatures of this ancient battlefield underground." The demon general calmly analyzed: "And we all know that the origin of this ancient battlefield can be traced back to the period of the Great War of Gods and Demons...... That period was the heyday of magic and combat skills, not to mention other races, our demon race alone, in the thousands of years that became history, there were many lost magic. β
"Like your Dark Assassination Technique?!" Lin Shu smiled disapprerovingly, and then was stunned for a moment, and came back to his senses: "What do you mean to say that the magical creature that arranged this illusion is an evil thought body gathered by the souls of that period, so the illusion it set up is also based on that period." Although everything in the illusion is false, knowledge is real......"
"That's right." The corner of the demon general's lips hooked, and he licked the corners of his mouth with a little excitement before continuing: "I can't be sure how many fragments of consciousness about the ancient period are still preserved in the mind of this magical creature, but at least there will be some of the parts we need, right?!" Like those dances, those bards...... Nowadays, people don't remember the glory of that era, but if you can see the dance of the gods and demons here again, I believe that it is theoretically possible to recreate the magic of the original era. β
Brother Hei's eyes moved: "...... Is there an elven guardian beast from the ancient period?! β
"This ......" The surging demon was splashed with cold water to sober up, and his attitude was a little hesitant: "I think probably, probably, maybe ......"
The Elven Guardian Beast of the Ancient Period?!
Black Stockings of the Dark God! How dare he guarantee this?! I can only try it myself, with the current fantasy background, the most likely to appear in large quantities should be the magic and skills that the Terrans are good at.
The demon general who had just thought of this was a little frustrated, and at the same time secretly hated the difference in taste and inclusiveness of the illusion.
Since you all have the ability to set up a fantasy world for a city, why not just set up an additional main city dominated by demons?! This way, he has a better chance of finding the lost magic of the demons, isn't it?
"It's okay." Lin Shu was kind and considerate and comforted the black brother and the demon general: "When we first came over, it seemed that we passed by a mercenary union, it is said that the continent in ancient times was not dominated by the human race, and all races lived equally in every corner of the continent...... If the magical creatures in this illusion aren't too logical, you'll probably remember to put a few NPCs of other races in the mercenary guild. β
"That's great." The demon general breathed a sigh of relief. (To be continued)
