256.Chapter 256: The Castle
Two days later, the number of monsters encountered by everyone decreased dramatically, and the vision in front of them became wider, and at the same time, the number of people following Ling Yun and them became fewer. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
These people were not killed by monsters, it was because they were too lazy, and they were in such an unfamiliar environment, and they didn't know what the destination of Ling Yun was to keep moving forward was, so some people began to get tired after following Ling Yun for a day or two......
In addition, Ling Yun had a lukewarm attitude towards them, so a large part of them decided to stay in a "safe" place...... I don't want to continue to follow the path and endure hardships.
For the departure of these people, Ling Yunquan should ignore it, everyone has their own ambitions, and he doesn't want to force them.
As the field of vision continues to widen, the trees around everyone are finally gone, and the surrounding area is full of thick wooden stakes, and there are some fungi growing on the surface of the trees, but I don't know if they are poisonous or not.
Suddenly, the ogres who were walking ahead stopped and stared ahead in disbelief.
At this time, because there is no obstruction of leaves, everyone's vision has returned to normal, and they can clearly see the scene in the distance.
"How is it possible, when did there be a castle here?" Bloodhammer muttered to himself.
It's a pity that his words can be understood by Ling Yun and the dozen or so ogres, and when they fall into the ears of others, they are just a bunch of bird language.
"No way, when I came before, there wasn't a castle here...... Bloodhammer shook his head, and turned to ask the other ogres and gnolls, but the answers were the same, and they didn't know when there was such a castle here.
Everyone looked ahead, and could see a tall stone building standing in the distance, the area was unimaginable, and the structure was extremely complex, covering an area comparable to a small city, the highest point was 100 meters high, the whole was irregular and circular, and the periphery was a layer of wall, which was close to a large number of buildings, full of magical style of medieval castle, completely made of white masonry, engraved with complex magic patterns, and looked a little old.
There are also several magic towers at the top of the castle, which are even more beautiful and make everyone yearn for them.
There are also a number of relatively rudimentary stone buildings on the periphery, all made of a mixture of polished boulders, some kind of clay, and natural binders extracted from plants, some of which have been covered with moss.
If you look closely, you can also find that under some moss, there is a mighty magic cannon, but because of its age, it is covered by these mosses.
It is hard to imagine that there is such a place in a forest full of dangers.
A group of people cautiously approached the location of the magic castle, the building was less than a kilometer away in front of everyone's eyes, and the castle looked even more majestic and spectacular up close. More than 1,000 of them stood under the majestic castle, looking so small and insignificant.
Ling Yun stared at the white castle with his eyes fixed and whispered, "Magic Castle...... We've finally arrived at our destination! ”
Fluttershy turns her head and asks, "Is there a castle at the end of the forest?" ”
Ling Yun shook his head, "No one knows what the end of the Chaos Forest is, but this will definitely not be the end, this can only be regarded as our destination at most, if we really have to go to the end, I don't know how much time it will take......"
"This is the last hurdle for us to get out of this forest, and it is also the most difficult challenge in front of us right now. In this castle, there is at least one monster with second-order peak strength! ”
The fat man's eyes widened and he exclaimed, "My God, this can already be directly said to be a third-order monster!" ”
Luo Xiaofeng, Li Lanlan, Zuo Qianyan and the others were also scared into a cold sweat, if they encountered a second-order mid-level strength monster, it would not be a big problem under their siege, even if it was a second-order high-level monster, although they could also fight each other, it was also extremely tricky, and it was difficult for any of them to defeat alone, let alone a second-order peak monster that was infinitely close to the third order.
These second-order peak monsters are simply difficult for them to deal with now!
Unless they use the pile of human lives, they can only stare dryly......
Suddenly, little by little, the gates of the castle opened.
Fearing some surprise, everyone hid to the side to see what monsters would appear in the gate.
After the castle gate was opened, a large number of strong cyclops were carrying logs and stones out of the castle, and began to build a watchtower a hundred meters outside the castle.
Immediately after, hundreds of "eyeballs" appeared on the city wall, and the huge eyeballs stared at the surroundings of the castle, but they did not observe Ling Yun and the others in the distance.
Those "eyeballs" moved slowly on the city wall, blinking from time to time, and then four or five octopus tentacles-like things fell from the "eyeballs", which really made the scalp tingle.
"That's the Evil Eye, they only have one attack magic, that is, the Disintegration Ray, the power is no worse than the Flame Burst, and the attack speed is fast, but their bodies are very fragile, basically they can be killed with a single sword......
The deterrent power of these hundreds of evil eyes is too strong, hundreds of attacks that are not weaker than the Flame Explosion Technique hit at the same time, none of them can block such a dense attack, not to mention that these evil eyes still have the ability to fly.
"Although these evil eyes are dangerous, they are also opportunities!" Ling Yunle said happily.
"I just looked at some of these evil eyes, and I found that basically they are basically first-order monsters, that is to say, hundreds of first-order monsters, and they are the kind of ...... with very low defense."
Hearing Ling Yun say this, everyone on the other side looked at the evil eye as if they were looking at a woman who had stripped naked...... Of course, women don't count!
Seeing Ling Yun whispering over there, the people on the other side were also whispering, but they were more discussing how to survive......
Among these more than 700 people, there are more than 100 first-order existences, but these people basically have their own small teams, and a dozen people form a small circle, although there is no festival, but there is no contact with each other, basically no contact.
After a minute or two, the evil eyes disappeared from the walls, replaced by hundreds of minotaurs.
Hundreds of goblins and gnolls also appeared outside the city gates.
Ling Yun squinted slightly and asked the goblins and gnolls who were wandering around with their eyes spinning around, not knowing what they were planning, "These goblins and gnolls, do you know ......?"
As he spoke, the men and ogres on the other side surrounded them, and the goblins and gnolls were killed.
Seeing such a scene, those spineless goblins and gnolls shook their heads without even looking at it, signaling that they were innocent, and even knelt down directly and begged Ling Yun for mercy, and many humble goblins even leaned down to kiss Ling Yun's shoes......
"Very well, since you have nothing to do with it, I am relieved...... When it's time to fight, you go and take the lead, who dares to run......" Ling Yun smiled mysteriously, this smile was the same in the eyes of the gnolls and goblins as the smile of the hellish demons.
More than 1,000 people hid quietly, but fortunately, there were not a few dead trees and stone walls around, and more than 1,000 people were hiding here, but they were not discovered by any monsters......
Soon everyone confirmed the fact that this magic castle was simply a city of monsters!
These monsters went in and out, Ling Yun and they saw no less than five thousand monsters, this is only the number on the surface, how many monsters are still stationed in it, they don't know, but the number will definitely not be less than ten thousand.
This white castle is surrounded by a wall tens of meters high, and the buildings are close to each other, and the castle is completely integrated, and each building is connected to the same as the other. The whole castle is like being carved out of a huge white stone, the castle is very large, enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people, but now it is surrounded and stationed by tens of thousands of monsters, and there are all kinds of monsters living in the castle, these different kinds of monsters, actually regard the white castle as their home at the same time.
Under the busy work of the cyclops, it took more than an hour to build the two rudimentary watchtowers.
The watchtower was only twenty or thirty meters high, and as soon as the cyclops retreated, four evil eyes immediately floated out and landed on the watchtower, and began to observe the surrounding movements.
Then all the monsters disappeared again, including the monsters on the city walls, all of them disappeared, leaving only the four evil eyes on the watchtower.
"What a chance!"
Looking at the white castle in front of him, Ling Yun's heart was secretly moved, he understood the importance of the castle, this magic castle, for anyone, is of great significance, he is the root of the Chaos Continent, this magic castle has a lot of defense magic and attack magic, with it, human beings can survive on the Chaos Continent.
But there are not many such magic castles, only the first batch of people who annihilate or expel all the monsters in the castle can get the castle, and the number of castles is not much, only 10,000.
The strangeness of these castles is that they can only be recognized by humans and developed their functions...... Even if some monsters occupy the castle, it can only be regarded as a place for people to live, and nine out of ten of its functions cannot be used.
"Damn, I'm a pioneer too!" Ling Yun thought to himself. In his previous life, he had been in the Chaos Forest for more than two months before he accidentally followed a team out of the Chaos Forest, but the exit here was opened by the pioneers, and they left the Chaos Forest without much effort.
Now, as a pioneer at the exit of the forest, standing beneath this enchanted castle, he still feels how difficult it is to conquer it, and how difficult it is for him to face unimaginable challenges.
There are tens of thousands of monsters, and there are monsters at the peak of the second order, plus a tall and solid castle to rely on. Even if the monster has low intelligence and doesn't know how to cooperate, even if he wants to get this castle, at least eighty percent of the more than 1,000 people will have to die in it.
