Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Secret of the Cave
Arthur and the others were all captured, and several large black fog-shaped hands rose from the black mist, supporting them to move quickly to the depths of the cave.
After only moving forward for about two or three hundred meters, Arthur's big hands under them suddenly dissipated, and several people fell heavily to the ground.
When Arthur and the others were stumbling, a hoarse, dry voice suddenly sounded in his ears, "Finally someone is coming! Let me think, how many years have I not seen a living person, ten years, or twelve?"
Arthur struggled to his feet from the ground, finding himself in the middle of a cave hall. The rock walls of the hall are inlaid with several glimmering crystals, and through this glimmer, you can barely see the scenery inside the cave.
Following the direction from which the voice came, Arthur saw an old man with a stray figure and a disheveled hair and beard. He was supposed to be the dark mage behind it, his face was unremarkable, but his eyes were as sharp as an eagle.
The old magician sat on a high-backed, polished stone chair. The back of the stone chair was against the rock wall, and there must have been a hole behind the back of the chair, because the sighing sound of the wind came from behind the stone chair. But what really caught Arthur's eye was next to the stone chair, where there was a small pile of Yuan Crystals.
"It's good that you're so young!" the old magician sighed to himself.
"Who are you?" Arthur couldn't help but ask.
"You're breaking in, I should have asked you first. ”
"I'm Arthur Sillow from the Isaac Kingdom Blizzard Legion, and they're all my friends. At this time, Arthur didn't feel the need to hide anything, so he simply said it directly.
"Half of the skeleton warriors outside of me are from the Blizzard Legion. The old magician's words were indifferent, making people shudder a little.
"Did you kill all those warriors?" asked Arthur, following the old magician's words.
"People are dead, and I gave them another life. "In the minds of dark mages, necromantic creatures are just as much life, but just another form of life.
"Those who are flesh and blood, are they also dead?"
"Their bodies are still alive, but their brains can't withstand the long-term invasion of the dark aura, and their souls are lost in the darkness. ”
"So you don't control those people?"
"No, since those people are lost, I just need to point them in a direction and they will act in that direction. "The dark mage is very tactful about mind control.
After that, the old magician asked Arthur some questions, including those of the Isaac Kingdom, the Church of Light, and even the Terran Empire, and he did not hide anything that Arthur knew.
The two of them talked for a long time as if they were chatting, and the old magician was basically asking Arthur to answer the whole process. Arthur also tried to ask a few questions, but rarely received positive answers. Golly, Joan and the others kept lying on the ground listening, and no one dared to interject.
The old magician seemed to finish asking what he wanted to ask, and suddenly said, "Thank you for talking to me so much, I haven't spoken to anyone in so many years. ”
"No need to thank you, just open the chains on me and my friends. ”
With a wave of the old magician's hand, the black chains on Arthur and Golly dissipated into black mist again.
Arthur was a little stunned, he didn't expect the other party to really let him go, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Thank you, we still have friends waiting outside the canyon, if there is nothing else, we will go back first." ”
Arthur found an excuse to slip away, and although the dark mage had not shown any anomalies until now after entering the hall, Arthur knew that this was not a good place.
Seeing that the old magician did not respond, Arthur turned around and wanted to leave, but found that the previous dark restraint had descended again, and he could not move.
The old magician smiled, "Don't waste your efforts, there is no way out here." While you are still sane, talk to me for a few more days, and then you, like them, will gradually lose yourself under the erosion of the dark magic element, and stay here forever. ”
Arthur hurriedly explained, "No, we can go out, someone is waiting outside to pick us up. After all these years, don't you want to go out for a walk? Can we take you out?"
"I don't know how many people from the Church of Light are waiting for me to go out? I'm tired of being hunted and killed. It will take another ten years at most, and I will go out on my own. ”
"You mean you can break the Great Light Seal from within?" the old magician's words startled Arthur.
"If it weren't for me constantly wearing away the seal of the Church of Light inside, you think you would have come in so easily from the outside?"
At this moment, Arthur finally understood what Sino said before, and there were some strange changes in the Great Light Seal.
"We have nothing to do with the Church of Light, let us out, we promise to forget everything we see in the canyon. Arthur was trying his best to make a final attempt.
The old mage sighed softly, "No one can understand what happened to dark mages in this world, and the world can't be trusted!"
"No, I understand!" a black mist appeared on Arthur's palm, and quickly spread around.
"You're a dark mage too?" the old mage stood up from the stone chair with a look of excitement in his eyes.
......
In the outside world, the war between humans and beasts has entered the highest climax.
Under Hongyan City, the siege battle has been fought for three days in a row.
The massive amount of rolling wood and tung oil ballistas accumulated by the Wind and Snow Legion before the war were exhausted in three days, which shows the fierceness of the war.
The corpses of the orcs killed in battle under Red Rock City were almost piled up into a small mountain. And stretchers transporting the corpses and wounded of Terran warriors from the city walls to the city are also endless.
Once the war between the two clans starts, it is like pushing a huge flesh and blood grinding plate, consuming the lives of the warriors all the time.
On the other side of the battlefield, the Bloody Flame Wolf launched a fierce attack on the Frost Thunder Legion camp.
One hundred thousand Terran warriors and more than 10,000 Knights of Light struggled to resist with the barracks fortifications that had been in operation for many years.
Like the battlefield of Red Rock City, the Frost Thunder Legion cannot retreat even if it fights to the last man, because behind them is the inland area of the Terran that can no longer be defended.
There was also an invisible battlefield, and outside the Sigh Canyon, seven old orcs in linen robes stood in front of the Great Light Seal.
An emaciated old werewolf slowly lowered his palm on the Light Seal, and the light rippled, but it didn't swing him away.
"It's strange that the Seal of Light seems to be much weaker than it was when it was first set. The old werewolf whispered.
"What's strange about this, no matter how strong a seal is, there will be a loss of energy and a weakening of the seal over time. A diminutive fox orc next to him said.
"No, the speed at which the seal is weakened is too fast, I understand that the Great Light Seal of the Church, even if it is a hundred years, it will not be weakened so much, and now it has only been more than ten years. ”
"What's the matter, what's the point?, the weaker the seal, the easier it will be for us to open, just tell me if I can break it?" said a sturdy minotaur urn in a sturdy voice.
The old werewolf nodded, "With our temple's 'Ten Thousand Beasts Devouring' formation, with the strength of the seven of us, we can open the seal with a little effort. ”
"So what are you waiting for, let's do it now!" the minotaur laughed.
"Then everyone is ready, and I'm going to get started. The old werewolf took out a seven-pointed star array disk from his bosom and was about to press it on the Great Light Seal.
"Stop!" shouted loudly, and several figures flew quickly from the sky......
