Chapter 41 Strategy Achieved
Arrons drew his scimitar and dragged the corpse to the wall of the walkway, where he lined up with the other guards. Looking up at their surroundings, the Dark Elf pulled out a silk scarf from his bosom, drenched it with water in a water bladder, carefully and attentively wiped the faces of several corpses, and folded their hands together on their chests.
"Is this your custom of drow?" A faint voice rang in Arlons' ear.
The chief of the Lustina family's guard didn't reply immediately, leaned over and kissed the foreheads of several corpses, before standing up and answering, "No, Drow has no custom of blessing enemies, it's just my personal blessing to them. ”
"Judging by the rumors that Drow has left to the world, you are really an interesting Drow!" Xu Mo looked at the dark aisle and said softly, "A dark elf like you, I'm afraid you will usually be criticized by many clansmen!" ”
"I don't care what other people think! Sir Cole, you are from the surface, can you describe to me what the sun and moon look like! Arlons' handsome face showed a longing expression, "When the sun hits your body, does it really have a pinprick pain?" Is moonshine as smooth and thick as stone milk? ”
"The sun and the moon?" Xu Mo's eyes flashed, he opened his mouth, and said with a smile, "The sun is the judgment of darkness, but it can bring hope to all life on the earth, and the moon can heal the scars in life." The beauty of these two cannot be described in words, you need to experience it with your own heart. ”
"Won't we drow melt into the sun?" Arrons asked hesitantly.
"In the War of the End, legend has it that the Dark Elves appeared on the continent as mercenaries. However, I have never seen a dark elf walking in the sun, and you need to test it yourself! Xu Mo narrowed his eyes slightly, and felt a strange feeling in his heart, "Arlons, every butterfly needs to break the shackles of the silkworm chrysalis!" ”
"Thank you, Your Excellency!" A strange color appeared in Arlons' eyes.
"Be careful, it looks like another enemy is coming!" Xu Mo's face suddenly straightened, and his figure slowly disappeared, leaving only Arlons alone.
Arlon looked back at the stone door behind him, slowly drew his scimitar, and muttered to himself, "The third batch, I'm afraid this will be the last wave of attacks from the tower guards!" ”
The unique underground world and brutal living environment condense Drow's worldview full of intrigue and betrayal. Wendini's verbal promise really made Xu Mo not have the slightest confidence. Although the five major spaces issued side quests to Xu Mo and others, there are still traps in this quest.
This side quest only reinforces the benefits of the main quest, and does not indicate the completion of the main quest. In other words, after the dungeon was freed from the effects of the coup, Breeland, the representative of the Skeleton Regiment, still had to compete with other surface forces for the Dragon Crystal Vein.
Perhaps the skeleton group would have some support from the dark elves in this, but this result was obviously not what Xu Mo wanted. Now that the whole team has taken a huge risk, he certainly wants to turn the existing advantages into tangible results.
In fact, everything Xu Mo is doing now, like the plan of the Meinong group, is a shortcut mode, not a situation where the five major spaces are guided and arranged. It's just that Xu Mo did not forcibly destroy the guidance of the five major spaces, but on the basis of the destruction of the Meinong Group, he used his strength to steer the situation in the direction that was beneficial to the joint team.
If the five major spaces have the consciousness of human beings, I am afraid that Xu Mo will also be scolded for being insidious at this time. The plan of the Meinong group is to take advantage of the loopholes in the laws of the five spaces, just like playing a game and opening a plug-in. And Xu Mo's current behavior is to set up a bitch archway, shouting that the plug-in is shameless, but while cracking down on the plug-in, he uses the plug-in to fight for his own interests.
Of course, Xu Mo's behavior is also walking a tightrope, he sees that this rescue mission does not have the competition of other top teams, and uses the monopoly task to win the maximum benefit for the joint team.
The guards in the council tower had already been killed by Xu Mo and Arrons before. When the summoning ceremony began in the conference room, Xu Mo and Arlons closed the stone door of the hall again, and the two of them blocked the door in front of the door.
The remaining guards in the tower reacted quickly, and in just a few minutes, they had already killed two groups of Dark Elf guards who had arrived at them. It's just a combination of two people and a dog, and there is really no pressure on Xu Mo and the two. There were only a dozen Saldardorians in the tower, and after killing the second group of enemies, the remaining guards were no longer a threat.
Arrons watched with bated breath at the corner of the aisle, but only half an hour had passed, but no enemy had come out of the corner.
"Whew!" An inexplicable gust of wind blew around the corner, giving the Elven Ranger goosebumps.
"Is that the kind of thing?" Arrons's heart moved, and he was about to open his mouth to remind Xu Mo, but he found that there were four points of turquoise fire around the corner.
"Ah~~~" The sharp sound waves spread out in waves in the walkway like ocean waves.
Arlons' face changed drastically, and he unfolded his body and quickly retreated, covering his ears with his hands as he retreated, but in a short moment, blood was faintly oozing from the seven holes.
The obsidian walls themselves have the effect of reflecting magic, and the narrow corridors act like echo galleries, transmitting the dementor's howls to every corner, making Arrons almost impossible to avoid.
The two Dementors had no feet, and their spirits were covered in a wide cloak and suspended at the end of the aisle. Their facial features were blurred, filled with black smoke, and in the smoke there were two points of turquoise soul fire, representing their eyes.
Suddenly, in the turquoise soul fire of a dementor, a bit of golden light suddenly flashed out. Accompanied by the golden tip of the demon's fangs, a pitch-black flame enveloped the dementor's body.
"Bang!" The Dementor's cloak exploded violently, "Squeak! The dementor's black smoke-like spirit suddenly swelled and shrank, twisting violently in the black flames, and in an instant, it seemed to turn into a black ball of fire.
"Ah~~" The other dementor screamed again, with an unconcealed horror in its howl, and before its companion could completely fall, it walked around the corner and disappeared without a trace.
Xu Mo's figure appeared at the corner of the aisle, looking at the dementor who had been burned by the Titan Black Flame, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. He didn't expect that the two dementors who were a headache would be sent away like this.
However, after thinking about it, the young man was immediately relieved. The strongest ability of the dementor is mind control, while Xu Mo's innate ability is to burn the will and be immune to mind control. In addition, the Dementor is a soul body, and the Titan Black Flame is fueled by soul energy, and the two just grow and restrain each other. For others, the dementor demon who had an incomparably headache happened to be restrained by Xu Mo and had no power to parry at all.
"Dementors are also afraid, this is the first time I've seen them!" Arrons wiped the blood from his nostrils and sat down on the floor with a wry smile.
"Are you alright?" Xu Mo smiled indifferently and asked with concern.
"It's okay, it's just that my head is a little dizzy. If the Dementor Howl continues for a while, I'm afraid it will be hit hard. It's not a good idea to fight a dementor in such a cramped place! Arrons said lightly, "Once these two Dementors die and flee, I'm afraid the remaining tower guards won't come back." ”
"Well, the elemental fluctuations inside the stone gate have also calmed down, and it looks like the summoning ceremony is about to end!" There was a hint of curiosity in Xu Mo's eyes.
He had asked Wendini to open the stone door to see what the spider god looked like. It's a pity that he was sternly rejected by the five elven patriarchs, and there was no room for compromise. In addition, the summoning ceremony really couldn't be disturbed, so Xu Mo had to dispel this idea with regret on his face.
Xu Mo, who was standing against the stone gate, suddenly felt dizzy. "Smack!" The obsidian floor tiles under Xu Mo's feet were completely shattered, and the young man involuntarily knelt on one knee, and an invisible weight enveloped the young man's whole body.
"The power of the Spider God!" Xu Mo's eyes lit up, and he turned his head to look at Arlons with difficulty, only to find that the elven ranger did not fall to the ground in embarrassment like him, but was a little leisurely, closing his eyes and bathing in the power of the spider god.
"No wonder Drow would forsake elemental magic in favor of the power of faith." Xu Mo knew it in his heart.
The underworld does not have as many magical elements as the surface, but it is connected to several dark planes through spatial rifts. The Spider God Queen not only rules the underworld of Alberon, but also rules over these dark planes, and is no less than the other main gods of Alberon. Although the power of her faith is limited, it is indeed no weaker than elemental magic.
The coercion of the Spider God Queen comes and goes quickly. However, before disappearing completely, Xu Mo had a strange feeling, as if a cold gaze swept over him.
"Squeak!" When Xu Mo could no longer feel the power of divine power, the stone door behind him was slowly pushed open.
"Dear Shadow Dancer, Lady Rose is not very happy with what happened to Parnascins. She had already sent a divine decree asking Parnasins to end the civil strife as soon as possible and to offer the family of sinners as a sacrifice to the goddess. Wendini's face was a little pale, but she still smiled and explained to Xu Mo.
"Under the notarization of the Goddess, the Federation has agreed to your request. As long as the Federation can regain control of the dungeon, then Breeland will be Panassins' only partner. At the same time, the dungeon will pay Red Rose one-third of its current inventory of dragon crystals as compensation for the attack. ”
Although the strategic goal was achieved, a hint of complexity appeared in Xu Mo's eyes. Because of his soul imprint, the five major spaces actually changed part of the content of the main quest.
