Chapter 50: The Stone Gate
"You wanted me to be a thug!"
Although the silver dragon Lady Ilyasara and the demon dragon Olebo have the special ability to communicate secretly with the dragon clan, they can't hide Dugu Feng's perception.
"Huh!"
Dugu Feng smiled lightly, Dugu Feng didn't care about Yinlong's thoughts. As long as the pay is right, she doesn't mind taking action and helping her fight the Red Dragon Tyrant entrenched in the south. Anyway, her path to becoming a god requires killing some strong enough as sacrifices, and it doesn't matter who this object is.
Claudius, the red dragon tyrant entrenched in the south, Dugu Feng has also heard of it. It is a strange red dragon that rose eight hundred years ago in the Gulf of Fire Wurm in the north of Tessel in the south. Its spell-casting ability is terrible, not much better than the most brain-dead white dragon, but he has the strongest body among dragons and a strange ability to suppress all supernatural powers, this ability can only improve his own magic resistance when he is weak, but when he gets older and stronger, this ability even becomes something similar to a materialistic aura, which can suppress almost all supernatural powers within the range of his force field, making magic, psionic energy, The power of magic and so on has been greatly reduced.
It was with this other force field aura that the red dragon despised all the magic masters and ran rampant on the mainland. Today, his force field aura and the dragon's innate abilities have fused to form a region of death magic that almost envelops the southern Karin Desert.
Of course, if the red dragon is just a powerful dragon, then there is only one more rampant evil dragon on the Faren Continent. It's not a big deal, but this red dragon is also quite intelligent, and he has several vassal races and forces under his control that are also under his control.
Unlike his kind, which only dominates some goblins, kobolds, ogres, trolls and other wilderness monsters, this vassal race under the command of this red dragon is the real elite, the most elite, almost invincible dragon tooth soldiers in close combat with the legion, and the centaurs who are both light and heavy, and can transform into heavy cavalry and archers at any time, sweeping almost the entire southern part of the continent, and even forcing the once very powerful Tesser Kingdom to be vassal.
The current Red Dragon Tyrant is not just a mighty dragon, he is also the leader of a powerful empire in the south. The territory ruled by the Red Dragon covers almost most of the coast of the Shining Sea - of course, in the current city-state world, this rule is more nominal, similar to the pattern of the ancient Roman Empire's rule in the Mediterranean, and the Red Dragon Tyrant's actual power is only the Karlin Desert he occupies, and the Karinshan region occupied by his direct vassal race.
In fact, in Dugu Feng's opinion, this red dragon tyrant is still quite capable, although the world of Feilun is a world of multi-racial coexistence, as long as you are strong enough to make order, people don't care what race the king or monarch above their heads is, the dragon is the kingdom and city-state ruled by the king and lord, and the red dragon tyrant is not the only one on the continent.
But no other dragon in the history of the kingdom has been able to rule a kingdom for as long as the Red Dragon Tyrant. In particular, the red dragon is very desperate to promote the prohibition of the gods from building temples in the Red Dragon Kingdom, and prohibiting the priests of all gods from preaching in public (of course, the preaching that is not too publicized in private is actually not a matter of fact).
This has aroused the anger and hostility of almost all the gods and churches on the continent, and they have organized dragon slaying and crusades in an overt or covert way for an unknown number of times. Although it did not succeed because of the dragon's powerful legions and vassals, and his perverted materialistic aura, it at least succeeded in suppressing the expansion ability of the Red Dragon Empire - for eight hundred years, some plagues and natural disasters have always broken out from time to time within the Red Dragon Empire, although it has the suppression of the Red Dragon Materialist aura, but these unexpected disasters have greatly consumed the war potential of the Red Dragon Empire, making the core strength of the Red Dragon Empire can only wreak havoc near the Kalinshan region.
Such a powerful red dragon meets the killing standards for the next stage of Dugu Feng's path to becoming a god. It's just that Dugu Feng is not a young man who is carried away by the belief in kindness and justice, and he will not be fooled by the silver dragon in the name of kindness and justice, so he is stupid and stumbling to the death with a powerful red dragon that has reached the limit of the power limit of the main material realm.
Of course, if Yinlong is willing to give her two beautiful daughters as a price to herself, Dugufeng can gladly accept it, but this kind of price is not known whether Ms. Elijasala, who is in the good camp, is willing to pay.
"Since you have come to the world of Dungeons and Dragons, why can't you collect some of the specialties of this world! Maybe I should open a dragon museum and collect one dragon from all races! ”
Dugu Feng thought like this while slowly walking into the Dragon Spear Castle. As for the Silver Dragon Lady Elijassara and the Demon Dragon Orebo, and they are up to them to communicate, anyway, as long as the Silver Dragon wants to crusade against the Red Dragon Tyrant, they will turn to her, a newborn legendary warrior, and when the time comes, they can go out as much as they want, and they are not in a hurry.
The current Dragonspear Castle is only a pile of overgrown rubble and deep pits all over the ground, which are traces of all the battles in the Dragonspear Castle in the past. Through the long time, Dugufeng can even see the fierce battle scenes in the past.
Dugufeng walked very slowly, and as she walked, she admired the traces left by time in this castle, and reminisced about the afterglow that reverberated in the precipitation of history. Whether it's the legendary destiny or the road to the gods, it's never just a simple task to fight the boss.
Just as the path of Osavito practiced by Eldanser is to travel the world on the edge of the blade and taste the wind and frost of the sword. The path of becoming a god taken by Dugu Feng also has to taste the mainstream of this world's battles and killings from the memory of the past, and in this taste and understanding, he gradually corrects his path to fit the rules of this world.
Dragonspear Castle is a typical Western-style fortress-type castle, with nine towers connected to the outer wall, and the inner city is also surrounded by four towers, and compared to the outer towers with many holes, the walls and towers of the inner city are relatively intact, at least retaining the basic defensive function - the exquisite craftsmanship of the dwarves and the power of magic make the thick walls still maintain a solid structure even after the baptism of time.
Due to the countless adventurers who have come here for many years in search of treasure, most of the rooms of Dragonspear Castle have been cleared, at least not blocked by abandoned masonry.
Dugu Feng walked slowly all the way, walking along the steps in the castle towards the underground. At the lowest level of Dragonspear Castle, there is a portal to Avernath, the first level of the Bato Nine Hells, which can be opened by dripping the blood of a dying mortal.
This portal is a very powerful and evil creation, and it is almost impossible to destroy - if someone tries to cast a spell on it, they will find that some spells will bounce back to the caster; Moreover, the Might and Magic Gate absorbs the souls of all the dead who died in the Dragon Spear Castle, so once the Might and Magic Gate is attacked, it will pour out the ghosts of the dead in the fortress and attack anyone who dares to approach it.
Back then, Baldur's Gate and Waterdeep City teamed up to break through the Dragonspear Castle, but in the end, they couldn't do anything about it. In the end, it was decided that a heavily armed Temple of Tampas would guard the portal. But in the end, the temple was breached by the devils, and in the end, it took a great deal of money to seal the portal completely.
Dim steps, musty staircases, to a monolithic arch carved out of stone, but unlocked.
"This is the portal to hell in Dragonspear Castle?"
Dugu Feng stopped, and Shi Ji, Lifar Yinyue and others who followed behind her also stopped. In this dark, dark, moldy underground passage, the huge stone gate in front of me is too conspicuous.
It was a stone door engraved with countless strange magic patterns, intricate patterns outlined with Mithril and other formal magic materials, emitting a faint blue fluorescence, illuminating the basement that should have been dark for a year into an eerie dark blue.
And when Shi Ji stared at this stone door, habitually trying to find the key to unlock this portal, he suddenly saw a dark blue whirlpool turning rapidly, like boiling soup, and countless fantasies flew out of it. In the blink of an eye, Shi Ji saw scenes of terrifying visions, the wails of death, the cries of ghosts, the fragments and bloodstains of weapons, as well as shredded flesh and bones, as well as tattered leather armor and clothes......
"Don't look at it!"
Just when Shi Ji was invaded by the illusion, Dugu Feng gently patted her and pulled her back from the boundless illusion: "This is the seal that guards the gate to hell. If you are hostile or have the intention to unravel it, it will trigger an automatic counterattack. ”
As if to confirm Dugu Feng's words, at the same time that the stone gate was touched by Shi Ji, one by one the blue ghost phantoms emerged from the stone gate, revealing hostile faces.
Due to the constraints of magic, these ghosts cannot attack people who are not hostile, so they can only pop their heads out of the stone door one by one, making all kinds of terrifying expressions, trying to intimidate the people who come to peep.
Lifar Silvermoon looked at the blue ghost that reappeared on the stone gate with some pity, and sighed and said, "Their lives have already merged with the gate of hell and become the base of the gate of hell, even the priest of the Lord of Death cannot free them. ”
"Unless the gates of hell are destroyed, they will never be free." Villa Roland had been in the abyss world for a long time, and he was already accustomed to similar methods, so he said: "Just destroy the gates of hell, I am afraid that these souls that are the pedestals of the gates of hell will really disappear again, and they will not even have the opportunity to go to the kingdom of the gods!" ”
"Destroying an innocent soul is an evil thing, and without destroying those souls, this gate of hell will always exist. Sure enough, it is the usual method of the devils in hell, and even the portal has to lay such an insidious moral trap. ”
