Chapter 15: Black Flames
Chapter 15: Black Flames
Soon, the Headless Horseman was dead.
And as the leader, Fantel is also in prison, although he went crazy when his blood volume was still 20%, but it did not change his current situation, he held a long sword in his hand, piercing the boulders, but he couldn't shake the boulders in the slightest, although occasionally his long sword could be inserted into the cracks of the boulders, but they were deftly avoided by Ye Ci and Arauna.
The location of these two boulders is really too good, and Ye Ci almost feels that these two boulders are bugs deliberately left by the plan. Of course, Ye Ci has absolutely no intention of reporting bugs now, after all, it is all up to luck that this kind of map can come in, and after she leaves, it is unknown whether anyone can enter here, so even if the BUG on this kind of map is reported, there is no good reward, of course she will not bother to think about it.
Protected by these two boulders, even if Fantel had already sent out the craziest and furious revenge outside, there was no way to get any effective and substantive attacks, but it made his own physical strength weaker and weaker. Boss-level monsters are going berserk.,When you're crazy.,Not only is the attack stronger.,Defense and blood volume will also be greatly improved.,But,Madness doesn't never go away.。 The boss's madness is like a buff on the player, which will disappear sooner or later, and after disappearing, the boss will enter a state of weakness for a period of time.
The so-called madness is like advancing health in advance for the final attack, if you kill the opponent during this time, then as long as the madness ends, the whole situation will become one-sided.
In normal times, the mad Pantel would never be able to take care of it without a tenth-level team of 100 people, but now, Ye Ci and Arau Na cowered under the stone, quietly waiting for its madness to end, and then took advantage of its weakness to kill with one blow.
Fantel also seemed to know Ye Ci's thoughts, and he became more and more crazy, constantly attacking the boulders with his horse's hooves and the long sword in his hand, trying to knock them out of a gap, but, in fact, he really had no other way.
The final result of the matter was, of course, a one-sided massacre, and soon, Pantel was unwilling to die at the hands of two people.
After Ye Ci made sure that there were no enemies nearby, Ye Ci and Arau got out of the exit of the boulder. Arau Na can carry some things on his body, although there are not many spaces, but there are more than a hundred vacant slots, so Ye Ci selected it and handed over some equipment with better attributes to Arauna. And his body was full of blue equipment, and although the white equipment was also more than eighty levels, Ye Ci really couldn't take it and had to give up.
Fortunately, a lot of ancient ores were picked up from these headless horsemen, and Ye Ci calculated that the ore in his hand now can not only buy Leah that piano, but also buy a lot of things from grocers, which is really good.
As a quasi-BOSS, Fantel has produced four pieces of equipment, all of which are unidentified, and in terms of texture, I am afraid that they are all equipment of the plate armor profession, Ye Ci put them all into the package, and could only return to the guild and hand them all over to Bai Mo for him to deal with.
After doing this, Ye Ci was finally able to enter this temple.
Ye Ci slowly climbed up the stairs, stood in front of the gate, took a deep breath, looked at the dark hall, pondered and finally walked into the hall.
And when she walked into this hall, she received two system messages.
The first one is about equipment: "You have a strange change in your equipment, please pay attention." ”
As long as this information appeared, Ye Ci didn't think about it, and directly raised his hand and looked at the ring on it. The ring, which was not outstanding, was faintly shining at this time, she stroked it gently, and then looked at the information of the items on it.
Mysterious rings
White outfit
Strength +20
Intelligence +2
Equipment Requirement Level: 0
Trait: Activates the "Featherfall" skill for 3 minutes and 20 minutes for CD.
Growable
Just like the first time this happened, this time there was a small print at the bottom of the ring's attributes. Ye Ci carefully identified it, only to see that it was written: "The ring that originally seemed to have been dead seemed to have come back to life when you walked into the Sachar Temple, what made it have such a change?" ”
For such a situation, Ye Ci did not seem so surprised. Saga is a Naga minion, and naturally belongs to the demon clan. And this ring is Naga's treasure, of course, if the dwarf Frodo hadn't lied to himself, then it was only natural that this ring had come to the Demon Temple. Although Ye Ci wanted to know what this ring would grow like in the end, Ye Ci hadn't figured out which direction he would eventually develop.
Is it as a devout god, or eventually as a follower of the Naga?
However, one thing has not changed, Ye Ci has always longed for himself to become stronger, stronger and stronger, strong enough to protect many people.
Whether it's light or dark, holy or depraved, there's nothing wrong with choosing as a player. The background of the game is always just a support, and only the battles between people are eternal.
After being reborn, Ye Ci will not deliberately cater to the guidance of the system, but will find a powerful way above the rules of the game according to his own prophetic prescience, regardless of good or evil, just to protect. Therefore, even if this mysterious ring lures her into the so-called demonic realm now, as long as it is of great benefit to herself, she will not refuse.
The other piece of system information is a deep voice slowly narrating something. Just like the story that Chel once told in the world, this voice was also narrating, but this voice was obviously only heard by Ye Ci, and Arauna was just standing beside her, and his expression did not look like anything abnormal. And the world is as calm as ever.
"I have recalled more than once the first time I met you, my master, my king. At that time, you were unruly, and you did not have any retinue by your side, so you stood in front of my followers and said to me, "Are you going to submit to me, or are you going to die by my sword?" I could have rejected you according to the disparity in our status at that time, but when I saw you, I surrendered, and I forsaken everything I had, and I was willing to follow you only. Whether it is hell or heaven, whether it is fall or sublimation, my master, my king, as long as you are here, there will be my Zachar's follow, please don't hide your face from me, please hold my hand tightly, please let me kiss the instep of your foot, in this life, Zachar will be yours, from life to all, forever and ever! ”
The voice seemed to be a woman and a man, low and indistinguishable. As Ye Ci slowly walked into the depths of the temple, the voice became smaller and smaller, but it became clearer and clearer.
With a sound of "expansion", the hall suddenly lit up brilliantly. Ye Ci looked at it, and saw that all the firelights on the many lampstands were lit up, illuminating the entire temple. Ye Ci carefully observed the temple, which was covered with a dark red carpet with elaborate embroidery on each side, and on each side of the carpet were twelve huge pillars, which were twenty or thirty yards high, supporting the roof of the temple. Behind the pillars there are many cushion-like places, where there is a prayer platform, a place for believers to communicate and pray to their gods, and there are many murals painted on the wall behind the prayer platform.
The mural depicts the story of the encounter between Saga and Naga in a very peculiar style, and from the mural, it seems that Naga and Saga are no different from good gods, full of power and justice. Ye Ci's lips hooked, only people who are not strong enough like to turn their lives into words and pictures to stay, hoping to be commemorated by future generations. But they don't know that this is just in vain, these things may stay for a while, they will last for a lifetime, but they will never be passed on forever, and sooner or later, these things will become crumbs like yellow sand in the sky and be blown away by the wind.
She turned her head and looked towards the front of the temple. Strangely there, there were no statues, no frescoes, no shrines, only a platform on which an arrow was placed.
That's right, it's an arrow.
Ye Ci thought that he had seen it wrong, and stood in place and looked at it for a long time, before he finally saw clearly, it was indeed an arrow. Just, why is there an arrow here? Isn't this the temple of Zachar? How could such a strange thing be enshrined?
According to the memory of his previous life, Saga is the ultimate boss of the first copy of the Death Abyss dungeon group, he is a magic attack boss, but he is not an archer who is good at physical attacks, this thing is really a bit weird to appear here. Ye Ci thought about it for a long time, but he still couldn't figure out why, so he had to give up.
As she got closer and closer to the arrow, the ring on Ye Ci's hand actually became hotter and hotter, and suddenly it burned! The black flames swirled around the golden ring, and it looked terrifying. Ye Ci hurriedly checked the attributes of the ring, but there was still no change in the attributes. However, the change in its appearance was enough to make Ye Ci frightened, and Ye Ci had faintly felt that perhaps he was being led by this ring to the hidden quest line of the entire fate, which could not be known by the general public.
"Stop! What kind of despicable ant are you, from whence you have come to this sacred temple to defile the god Zachar? ”。 Suddenly, a crisp and beautiful voice sounded out of thin air!
Ye Ci followed the prestige, and saw a woman in a black cloak standing next to the main prayer table, her long hair hanging down her waist, her eyes were vigilant, and a pair of eyes showed bright red light. The cloak didn't seem to hide her perfect curves, and she just stood not far from Ye Ci, holding a staff with a metallic sheen in her hand, and her face was covered with frost, as if as long as Ye Ci got one step closer, she would attack her mercilessly and put her to death.
Ye Ci didn't need to throw any reconnaissance skills at her, because this guy's state could be seen clearly without reconnaissance at all.
Sachar's Squith: Rank: Fifteen. Boss-level NPCs, the amount of blood can't be seen at all, all of them are question marks.
If you guess correctly, this is probably the boss of this map. Although the other party was not a little bit higher than herself, Ye Ci didn't show any scared look, she just looked at the Sith quietly. Obviously, if she fights the Sith directly, she will definitely lose, this kind of boss needs a team of several hundred people to deal with it together to have a chance of winning, and herself, no matter how strong she is, is really like dust in front of her, and she has no chance of winning.
However, that doesn't mean she can't deal with it at all.
If this guy was going to deal with herself, she should have known it as soon as she entered the temple, why didn't she come out to solve herself at that time, but dragged it out until now? Ye Ci looked down at the mysterious ring with black flames on his hand, and squinted his eyes slightly, there is no doubt that this is an open task, as long as Ye Ci finds a way to find the most correct and most suitable answer from this task, he can easily pass the level.
Not only that, but maybe she can get some unexpected gains. When Ye Ci was thinking like this, her eyes unconsciously looked at the arrow placed on the table, I don't know why, she seemed to be tempted by the arrow, she must see what it is to rest assured.
This is probably related to their own profession, and it is rare for players to encounter something related to their profession and not be moved, and Ye Ci is no exception.
"Temple?" Ye Ci sneered, "It's a big joke that a little lower demon actually dares to call himself a god. Although Ye Ci didn't want to provoke the Sith, the current situation, no matter what way she answered, seemed to anger her. Ye Ci looked at the ring on his hand, and suddenly wanted to gamble, bet on the Sith's loyalty to Saga, bet on Saga's loyalty to Naga, and bet on whether this ring is Naga's treasure in the end.
If she loses, it's nothing more than a hang-up once. Now she's not afraid of hanging at all.,First of all, even if it's hung in this kind of dungeon, it won't drop the level.,At most, it's just a drop of something.,And the monsters in this map are almost cleared.,She can come back and pick it up.。 As for Arauna, she now has a soul rejuvenation technique, and although Arauna will be weak for twenty-four hours, it is nothing remarkable.
Since it is gambling, then there must be some price, but Ye Ci only feels that if he wins the bet, then what he gets is definitely more abundant than the bet. Therefore, this kind of gamble Ye Ci must not let go.
"What do you say! How dare you blaspheme Zachar! I want you to pay the most painful price for your pride! The Sith unceremoniously began chanting spells, preparing to attack Ye Ci.
According to the level of the Sith, it would be easy to kill Ye Ci. Ye Ci whispered to Arauna beside him, "Run!" ”
"What?"
"Don't stay here, get out of here." Ye Ci's body was unshaken, standing firmly in front of Arauna, she slowly raised her hand, letting the black flame in her hand burn more and more vigorously.
Arauna seemed to understand something, he looked at Ye Ci quietly, and from his point of view, Ye Ci's white skin was even whiter by the black flames, and there were even some cyan shadows dancing on her skin, which made people shudder. But there was no trace of fear in Ye Ci's eyes, and there was even a look that Yalauna couldn't understand, and on her lips, Arauna saw a smile in surprise.
He almost felt that he had seen it wrong, so he closed his eyes vigorously, and when he looked again, he really didn't see it. There was a fascinating smile on Ye Ci's lips, and that smile made her whole face glow, not only not fearful, but full of great interest, as if she was not facing an opponent as terrifying as death, but a huge treasure. For a moment, Arauna felt that the white elf she was facing was not an ordinary person, but a complete gambler!
That's right, she's a gambler! The kind of gambler who indulges in the great temptation of choice!
Life or death, defeat or victory, all became momentary matters in her eyes.
"Don't go yet!" Ye Ci had already put up a defensive posture, and she couldn't take her eyes off the Sith not far away, but she still felt the presence of Arauna, so she quietly urged this guy to leave quickly. Although he can be resurrected, it is better for this kind of loyalty-destroying NPC to not die or not to die.
Yalau looked at Ye Ci's appearance, and didn't know why his heart suddenly surged with infinite passion and courage, and he shook his head stubbornly: "No, I'm not leaving!" ”
Since Arauna had chosen to stay, Ye Ci didn't say anything more, because all her attention was now on the Sith.
Whether it is life or death in the end, this is the case.
The Sith's chant was finally over, and a black light and shadow suddenly came out from her wand and rushed towards Ye Ci. The black light and shadow are very pure. It is more pure than the light of the ring on Ye Ci's hand, so black that it is not transparent, as if it is the ink color of the vast night.
And the ring on Ye Ci's hand seemed to feel this black light and shadow, and the flame on it burned even more vigorously, and it seemed to have reached the size of half a person. Ye Ci's hand with the ring vibrated strongly, that kind of real amusement was not because of Ye Ci himself, but from the ring, that ring seemed to have a very strong desire for the black light and shadow, just want to devour the black light and shadow!
The speed of this black shadow was extremely fast, but it had already approached Ye Ci in the blink of an eye, but when it rushed towards Ye Ci, it first touched the black flame of the ring on Ye Ci's hand. The flame seemed to be like a shield, blocking the black shadow entirely. And that black shadow seemed to be an extremely advanced skill of the Sith, and the impact it brought was not a little bit, and it directly swept Ye Ci's whole person away, fell far to the ground, and slid out for five yards before finally stopping.
Ye Ci only felt that his back was burning with pain, it seemed that it was the injury caused by sliding on the ground just now, but fortunately it did not bring too much health drop. The black shadow didn't disappear, but it didn't attack Ye Ci either, it just seemed to be stuck by the black flame, or rather, the black shadow was gradually swallowed by the black flame, and it disappeared completely in the blink of an eye.
"White Elf, are you okay?" Arauna immediately waved his staff and added a rejuvenation technique to Ye Ci, so that her school was immediately full, and his expression of concern was full on his face, undisguised.
Ye Ci shook his head and stood up. Her hands were trembling violently now, not because of the discomfort caused by the impact just now, but because the ring had become more and more active after devouring the dark shadow. It was constantly vibrating, as if it had a life of its own. And the black flame is getting bigger and bigger, and it seems that it is about to rise to the size of Ye Zi.
Ye Ci looked at the attributes on the ring, and there was still no change, but she was still very careful, if this kind of thing belonging to the demon was not well controlled, it would be devoured. If it is eaten back, it must be a huge damage to the player, not only will the level drop a lot, but also the talent points will be devoured a lot.
Therefore, even if Ye Ci is very coveted for Naga's power, he must get it when he can control it, if he can't control it, Ye Ci will never get involved. And now the reaction of the ring made Ye Ci feel a little uneasy, but she didn't take off the ring. After all, it is not particularly easy to be devoured by equipment, it will only be achieved after many times of tempering and lifting the seal, and it is impossible to be activated by devouring the black shadow in such a single time.
"You have ...... on your body" Sith's expression was stiff since her skills were swallowed by the black flames just now, she looked at Ye Ci, watched Ye Ci slowly walk towards her, and said in a low voice for a while.
"Do you want to come?". Ye Ci raised her hand again, looking at the Sith with a more determined expression, she actually didn't know what effect it would have on this ring if the Sith put a dark skill again, but she was still willing to give it a try.
"No, no, no, my subordinates don't dare." The Sith cowered, looking terrified. She put down her staff, knelt down on one knee at Ye Ci, and said softly: "My master, my king, your servant did not know about your arrival, which displeased you, and the servant is willing to sacrifice everything for you to make up for such a mistake." ”
Ye Ci exhaled a long breath and put down his hand. And the ring also returned to normal the moment Ye Ci put down his hand, without any change, just like at the beginning, ordinary and inconspicuous, and the attributes were even more general.
"I forgive you." Ye Ci said slowly.
"Thank you for my master's leniency." Sith pressed her forehead to the ground, and she could see that Ye Ci's words made her very grateful.
Ye Ci actually didn't understand why these fanatical believers had such a pathological worship and enthusiasm for their gods, and they were so worshipful of anything they said. Even ordinary people who hold some god items will be treated with their courtesy, and there is really some stupidity and no cure.
"How did the temple of Zachar end up here?" This is what Ye Ci is most curious about, if she remembers correctly, she was teleported to this map after touching a book in the forbidden land. In other words, this map does not actually exist and should be an illusory copy.
"This is not the true temple of the god Zachar, just an illusion, created on the basis of the Book of Demons." The ring on Ye Ci's hand is a Naga item, so it has a strong demonic nature, although Ye Ci can't feel it, but as a dark creature, the Sith is naturally familiar with this thing. Now that she had confirmed that this thing was Naga's, she was also respectful to Ye Ci, a player who held such a divine object.
"If I'm not mistaken, this is near the Doro tribe, why create an illusion here?" Ye Ci looked at Sith and asked.
Sith didn't have a high IQ, but he instinctively hesitated when he heard Ye Ci ask this, and didn't want to tell Ye Ci about it. But Ye Ci had already seen her hesitation, and raised his hand directly towards her, and the ring on his hand suddenly burned again, so frightened that Sith shrank back again.
"What? Don't you want to say? ”。
"No, no, no, no." Because of the ring on his hand, the Sith naturally knew and could not be said endlessly.
Soon, Ye Ci figured out the ins and outs.
It turns out that under the extinct volcano of Breda there is a huge gem called the Heart of Flame, which is the source of energy for Breda Volcano, and Naga was sealed away after the defeat, and his minions searched everywhere for the source of this energy in order to rescue him. Naturally, they discovered the Heart of Flame beneath Mount Breda Volcano, and of course Saga was desperate to get hold of it. However, this heart of flame was not so easy to reach, because it was sealed by a powerful magic array around it. Saga had no choice but to find another way, it was in cahoots with Nobo of the Doro tribe, as long as Nobo destroyed this magic array, he would have a way to help Nobo seize the entire Doro tribe and make him the patriarch.
The tribe of the Dora people not only has a powerful shaman that makes Zaga fearful, but also this is also the protection range of the fishmen, and Sachar's strength is much smaller because Naga was sealed, so he can't compete with them, so he has to conjure up a temple of his own under the pitch-black cave to contact Nob. At the same time, it also accumulates dark power here, which is used to gradually erode the magic power of that magic array.
Aronah was already furious when he listened to the Sith's account. He respected Darufar so much, and now Nobo actually wanted to kill Darufar with the woman in front of him, how could this calm down Arauna, if it weren't for Ye Ci's reprimand and restrictions, I was afraid that he would have rushed up by now, but Ye Ci was afraid that he would mislead his own affairs, and finally ordered him to go outside the temple. Although Arauna was very dissatisfied with this decision, he had no way to disobey Ye Ci's order, so he had to walk out.
It wasn't until he saw Arauna's figure that Ye Ci turned his head and continued to look at the Sith. And the Sith was also looking at Ye Ci with a strange gaze: "Why are you with a Dora person?" ”
Ye Ci smiled slowly: "What?" You can all contact Nobel, can't I find a guide for the Doro? ”。
"No, it's not, I don't doubt you." Sith heard the displeasure in Ye Ci's voice, and immediately shook his head, trembling.
Ye Ci stood in the main hall, and in the later stages of the game, there were many copies of this environment. However, there is a necessary condition for making such a fantasy copy, that is, it needs a medium with the magic of the owner of the environment, and in this illusion, its owner is Zachar, so the medium that supports it should be the arrow on the table.
Ye Ci stood in front of the platform, quietly looking at the arrow, carefully hiding the greed in her eyes, she asked casually, "Where is Saga now?" ”
"The Sagar was wounded after that great battle and is not fully recovered." Speaking of Sachar, Sith seemed much more interested, she listened to Ye Ci's question, and quickly told Ye Ci about the current situation, because Ye Ci scared her with the ring just now, she had completely believed Ye Ci. There is no doubt at all, this is the benefit of low IQ NPCs, everything is easy to fool, as long as you find the right way.
"I said, 'Where is he?' Is it really inside the physical body of the temple? ”。
"No, not rein." Sith shook his head, "I don't know where the Sacharites were, it seems that there are Sacharites in every temple......"
Ye Ci nodded, and understood what the Sith said, according to the Sith, Saga should have stored the medium and illusion in each temple, and his own entity was hiding in a place where no one knew about it. That's what these dark creatures do.
Only, how did Zachar's wound come about? Because in the later stage of fate, the task system is too large, and there are some details that are not very noticeable, Ye Ci does not remember very clearly, just like Saga was injured, she doesn't remember it too clearly, but she remembers that in the annals, it is briefly recorded that he fled in embarrassment after being injured.
"Are you an illusion or a reality?" Ye Ci's gaze moved slightly away from the arrow and fell on the Sith.
"I'm real." A scorching fire broke out of the Sith's eyes.
"It's dangerous to put your own entity in an illusion." Ye Ci raised her eyebrows slightly, and no one could see what she was thinking in her heart.
"I'm not afraid! For the sake of the Sarcas, for the master, for the king I am willing to give my life! The Sith became more and more fanatical, like a cult heretic, fanatically proclaiming her faith.
Ye Ci looked down at the ring on her hand, she just thought of one thing, since the Sith's skills can be absorbed by this ring, can the Sith's soul be swallowed by this ring? She looked at the Sith's fanatical face, a cold smile on her lips. She walked up to the Sith, stood in front of her, held out the hand with the ring to her, and said indifferently, "I don't believe it. ”
A violent black flame suddenly ignited on the top of the ring, but it didn't scorch Ye Ci himself, but this black flame seemed to have a huge magical power, which immediately made Sith's face confused. She looked at the ring quietly, and muttered as if she had lost all consciousness, "What am I going to do to believe it?" ”
"Give your life." Ye Ci's voice did not carry any trace of emotion, and announced her decision indifferently.
Sith slowly raised his dull eyes and looked at Ye Ci with a hint of confusion on his expression. It seems to be hesitating, and it seems that there is some disbelief.
"What? Now deny what you said yourself? ”。 Ye Ci smiled coldly: "It seems that your loyalty is nothing more than that." ”
"No, no, no!" Sith shook her head, her fanaticism falling on Ye Ci's indifferent eyes and looking a little embarrassed. Maybe as an ordinary NPC, Sith is still trying to distinguish the current situation, but the nature of her character determines that her IQ is not high, and in such a low IQ situation, she can't tell whether Ye Ci's performance is a conspiracy or a real test. In her consciousness, already frantic for her beliefs, there seemed to be only one voice echoing.
Prove your loyalty! I'm going to prove my loyalty!!
"What if I could prove my loyalty!" Although Sith doesn't have much brains to think about problems, she can still figure out some basic things, she looked at Ye Ci and asked seriously.
Ye Ci shook his fingers, and the black flame in his hand also jumped: "Then you will follow Naga to get eternal life." ”
Obviously, this was a great temptation, Sith's red eyes became more and more crazy, and she looked at the ring on Ye Ci's hand, and she actually had a deep obsession. Suddenly, she pulled a dagger from her thigh.
This dagger is cold and shining, and the handle of the knife is inlaid with a lot of precious stones, and it is not ordinary at first glance. This kind of dagger is generally a secondary weapon of the legal profession, and it is definitely not as good as a thief's dagger in terms of damage, but if it is used to insert it into the vital point, it may not be able to have any good fruit to eat.
Ye Ci looked at the Sith who was holding a dagger, squinted his eyes, and was defenseless, now that he was ready to fly, even if the Sith attacked him at this time, he could only consider himself unlucky.
However, Ye Ci clearly overestimated the Sith's IQ. Sith pulled out his dagger, raised his head to look at Ye Ci, and suddenly laughed: "I am the most loyal servant!" No one can question my loyalty!! With that, she jerked up her wrist and stabbed the dagger into her heart.
Blood, splattered out, sprayed on Ye Ci's face, and there was a warm feeling.
She reached out and gently wiped the blood from her face, and looked down at the Sith, the beautiful NPC who was now looking at her. The brilliance of life passed quickly from her eyes......
