Chapter XVIII: Clinos 2
readx;? Magical apparitions roamed the crypt, and the entire dungeon came to Klinos's mind. www.biquge.info The more you walk, the more twisted and rough the walls of the rock become, not like a carved or often stepped on place.
The perceptive Abel noticed that it was getting hotter and hotter nearby, and the rocks were silently emitting heat waves. The sound that had been thought to be a hallucination was now clear, and a rapid thump came from the rocks.
"What's that sound!" asked Noah.
"That's the voice of our escape!" Clinos didn't explain too much.
After a corner, everyone saw two goblin corpses lying on the ground. The wound was from the neck to the lower abdomen, it was fierce and deep, and the bones could not resist the force of the slash at all, and it was torn apart into pieces. Mixed with flesh and blood, it's disgusting to be shaved ice.
Noah took a closer look and almost didn't throw up, stepping over the corpses with his eyes closed.
Augst was holding the bloodstained sword of the sage guarding Abner and his magic circle, written in bright moon stone and glowing bright white. With simple and easy-to-understand geometric shapes and runic representations, it's a blasting magic.
Seeing that these people had finally returned safely, Ogst asked, "Why did you delay you for so long?"
"Oh, you're not going to believe what I'm seeing. Klinus said, "A clever troll leads a goblin!"
"And mountains of treasure!" said Serena, correcting Clinos' emphasis.
"Trolls?" Ebna paid no attention to the treasure.
"That's right, trolls!" said Clinos, "and I'm speaking the kind that speaks human language and commands goblins." It's not like a fool who can count to ten!"
Serena, who had never studied trolls, didn't know what the significance of this special case was, and urged, "Gentlemen, shall we get out of here and talk about this kind of thing?"
"Willing to help, but. "We need to wait for the moment. ”
"I hope the timing will come sooner. Augst said, "The goblins are near!"
As he spoke, a group of goblin shadows stepped out of the corner in the light of the fire. However, the goblins had no intention of attacking, and stood in a row respectfully. Sure enough, the troll who called himself Domrick gradually came out of it. Obviously, it's a little cramped, and it's very inconvenient, and I don't know which way to squeeze it from. Reluctantly, it straightened up and said to the group in front of it, "Okay, now you have no way to escape." ”
Klinos pulled out his wand and prepared to kill the troll, secretly regretting the troll with amazing intelligence. With a flick of Klinos' arm, the behemoth would turn to ashes like the goblins he had previously hit. Even if it weren't, he would have died quickly from severe visceral burns. Instead, the troll's staff lay across his chest and slowly dispelled the blue glow of Clinos' magic.
"Wow," Klinos said, "I didn't expect that. ”
Many thoughts flashed through Klinos's mind, the magic defense rune?, but its golden staff could not see the style of the rune, could it be that it was forged of gold and pure gold, so that people could not see the style of the rune. But how can there be such an effective magic defense rune in the dark underground? You must know that the rune also needs to replenish the arcane energy in the sun.
Klinus had never seen what Abel had seen in the halls of the dwarven dungeons, half of the glowing boulder basking in the sun on the ground. Convert the sun's cathode rays into fluorescence, and most of the Ao Neng has also been transmitted into the dungeon. The light emitted by the fluorite contains arcane powers, and it takes away the rays that are lethal to the trolls.
Domrick sighed softly, gesturing for scoff.
Clinos wanted to regroup, using electric magic to try to break through its magical defenses. A beam of electric light took shape in Klinos's hand, and Domric's expression still didn't care about this little trick of carving.
It twisted a section of its staff, possibly connected to some magic circle. Klinus could feel a regular circle of electric fields around him, directing the current to flow directly into the ground. Gorgeous lightning swirled around the troll, and the electric spark soon disappeared without a trace.
How is this possible? Static shielding fields are so difficult to construct that even if the spell isn't a troll, it's hard to believe that a mini magic circle can be cast on it.
"I've seen your expression like that," Domrick said with a smirk, "just like the other mages did when they died." ”
Clinos remained shocked and said, "If you answer me just one question, I'll die without regrets." What are you?"
Domrik had heard the question, and it had been asked by the dead mages, who would never believe that a troll had magically suppressed him. "I'm a troll. Domrick said, just like he would for any other mage who wants to die.
Abel and Noah re-examine the troll king and discover that there is real potential for king in his brownish, pale muddy skin. The potholed face always has a confident smile and conveys a firm will that outsiders must die
"Mr. Troll. Klinos said.
"Please call me King Domrik. ”
"Yes, His Majesty King Domrik. Klinos thought for a moment and added, "I can guarantee that it was just an accident, and we had no intention of breaking into here." ”
"Human, every human being says so. ”
"We will leave as soon as possible without taking anything with us. "We don't pose any threat to you," said Ebner. ”
"Do you know why my kingdom has not been threatened for so many years?" Domrick asked rhetorically, "because no one has ever come out of here, and that's the only thing I rely on." Besides, this lady has taken enough with her, hasn't she?"
At this time, the continuous knocking sound from the underground became quieter, and Klinus hid the movement of his hand and said, "King Domrik, I'm afraid this time it will backfire." We're leaving, with or without your consent. ”
Domrick noticed the noise and raised his foot to rush at the humans, but the path was blocked by a stone door that had collapsed from the upper room. The stone door is cut smoothly to fit the size of the cave and is airtight. No matter how much Domrick struck it, he couldn't shake it in the slightest.
Immediately after Ebna connected the magic circle that had been prepared for a long time, the rock was pierced by the explosion, and a tunnel appeared on the other side. It's the eye of a geyser, and now is the time for it to erupt.
"Guys. Clinos said, "Put away your valuables and sheath your sword." What will be followed will be a bumpy and fiery journey."
"Are you sure?" Serena wondered as she looked at the deep hole, "It doesn't look that safe"
"It's not safe. "The spring water is 90 meters hot, and it will send us to about 50 meters in the air," Klinos said. ”
"So any suggestions?" said Serena.
"Yes. Clinos said, "Close your eyes!"
A magic bubble enveloped the six men, leaning forward slightly before falling into the tunnel. The pale blue magic bubbles were soon pushed up by the scorching spring again, and the water was so large that it filled the small room carved out by the mage, and then rushed to the ground with unabated momentum. Behind the stone wall, the troll king Domrick guessed the humans' intended means of escape, and now if they broke through the stone wall, most of the dungeon would become an "underground hot spring", or "underground stew".
The waves kept pushing and rolling. The white steam was steaming all the time, and the thin magic bubbles looked weak, but they kept the hot soup out of it, and the slightest heat wave was not felt, as unreal as a cold flame.
The fast-moving spring sometimes diverted, causing the magic bubbles to crash against the walls. But the people inside didn't feel the bumps at all, as if they were hitting a soft mattress. It should be said that it is wrapped in a soft mattress, with a perfect fit in the back and a gentle pull in the front to counteract the inertia. Plus there was no sound of collision at all, and it felt like I was immersed in some breathable liquid.
The noisy sound of the water is no longer harsh, but rather a harsh voice that threatens your sleeping parents, making the environment more comfortable. If it weren't for the fact that now wasn't the time to sleep, Noah would have almost closed his eyes and ignored the next few hours. Even so, I still feel that if I don't relax in this bubble, it will be too tyrannical.
The geyser walked with bubbles for a while, and finally saw the sun. The spring water has taken a lot of walks with bubbles, and I don't mind walking a little more. The column of water that soared into the sky washed the magic bubble to a height of 50 meters, and the Harando Lighthouse was only 60 meters high. The mist flew higher and farther, refracting the sunlight into a rainbow. The minerals contained in the spring water in the pond look bright yellow at the shallow surface, but deep blue at the depths, as gorgeous as a rainbow in the sky.
The bubbles slowly descended to the shore of the geyser and burst like a real soap bubble.
