Chapter 65 of Section F: On the Altar (Cyberdart)
"You're okay, that's great!" Just as the ranger was in a daze, De Nuo rushed over, followed by a group of soldiers: "I was always watching this side when I was just fighting. You're fighting so hard there, it scares me to death...... So many times I almost thought you were going to die. β
It's really doubtful that you've been watching you when you're fighting.
"Thank you very much. After saying this sourly, the ranger snorted dissatisfiedly: "You guys are here to say this? Just to get angry with me? You still know that I am in danger, so why didn't you send someone to help just now? So many of you are watching the play on the side-"
"No, no, no, you're mistaken. With a hint of embarrassment and guilt on his face, Deerno hurriedly explained: "I understand the situation. When the knight duel with him before, several soldiers did come to help. But they were all killed instantly by magic. After that, no one dared to go over, so they could only watch from the sidelines. β
"That's true. Seeing that the elf's face was full of disbelief, the knight stepped forward, still dragging his right hand, which had been simply bandaged due to fractures: "The enemy seems to want hand-to-hand combat to duel, so he is too lazy to use magic on me." So I didn't use it and didn't dare to use it. β
"Ahh So you're going to kill everyone who comes to stir things up.
Isn't that a mental illness?!
"Thank you for saving my life. Bowing slightly, the knight solemnly thanked the ranger: "Play for a few seconds, and I will die." β
Where do you hear that...... Pressing the brim of his hat, Seth smiled and nodded in return.
"Seth. You see, that's one of the corpses. Pointing to a headless corpse whose head had been thrown away and lying outside the trap, the knight looked sad: "He teleported directly behind the man and twisted his head off in front of me. β
It's really miserable...... "Then don't mention it, this trick was used on me at the beginning, but unfortunately it didn't have any effect." Glancing at the packed mechanical room of the guards, the elf shifted his gaze to the crowd of people who were busy collecting and burning the corpses of the corrupted, when he suddenly felt something extremely unnatural: "What is this movement?"
The knight jammed the gear disc with his broken sword, so the gate was not lowered. Looking at the stone demon standing there with a wry smile, Deno added, "But it's a pity...... The enemy still blocked the road to the high ground with an ice wall. If it weren't for Guladan helping to smash it open, the battle wouldn't have been like. β
Speaking of Guladan, what is that guy doing? I vaguely heard someone shouting "The dragon statue is closed again", and the elf frowned: after this kind of incident, that thing must be demolished. You must dig three feet into the ground to find a passage, or this ruined castle will be finished sooner or later.
"I didn't expect it to be so futile. Shaking his head, the knight sighed: "Thanks to Lucina's help, otherwise ......"
"Uh, wait. It wasn't Lucina who summoned it. Realizing that the knight had misunderstood, the elf sighed: finally got to the point. After spending about two minutes explaining Lucina's disappearance and Guladan's control, the knight's face was full of color, as if he had to pretend to be fond of food after being fed.
"Everyone, let's talk about it when we get back. Seeing that the atmosphere was extremely embarrassing, Deer no began to try his best to save the scene: "Lusha has been sent to the room, let's go and accompany her, especially the knight, your hand, you have to quickly and bandage the ......."
"Go, knight. As soon as the mad dog woke up, he would be able to tell where Lucina had gone. Pointing to the roof, the ranger lowered his voice, "But I have to go up and have a look, I can't leave for the time being." β
"What are you going to go up to see?" Raising his head, the knight looked at the roof with a puzzled face, "Do you think there's something strange about the place where the gang disappeared just now?"
"Hmm. Pulling out the long whip and flicking it crisply, Seth said leisurely, "Denor, is there a way to the roof platform?"
"No, because both platforms are for ice dragons to settle into. In a tone of great confidence, Deenor said quickly, "But I can get someone to bring a ladder right away......"
"Denor, you can't do this. Feeling very funny, the elf sighed helplessly: "You belong to the person in charge now, right? You should first ask me what I am doing and then decide whether to support or not, instead of directly saying that you want to help." β
"Oh...... Yes, that's right. Smiling awkwardly, Derno stumbled and said, "Then, what are you going to do up there?"
"I suspect there's a teleportation circle on it, like the one the knights had seen before. Without going to explain why he was so suspicious, the elf pinched the leather whip with his fingers and looked at the adjutant with a slow expression: "How?"
"Ah, no problem. Hurriedly agreed, and the unassertive Deerno immediately mentioned it again: "Then I'll send someone to get the ladderβ"
"No, I'll go up faster myself. How long do you have to climb with a ladder to get so high?" Shaking his head, the elf turned around and pointed to the giant sword, "The enemy's weapon has fallen here, you should put it away quickly." Maybe he'll come back and pick it up sometimes. β
"Wait, Seth. Grabbing Sebodart, the knight said calmly, "Pay attention to any protruding devices or metal platforms. That thing is the trigger for the teleportation circle. β
Why is this trigger so weird?" Throwing this sentence, Cyberdat immediately threw the long whip straight at the roof to control its elongation. It quickly wrapped around a protrusion at the edge of the prototype platform and pulled the elf towards the roof at high speed.
Rolling over and jumping onto the roof, Seth retracted his whip and hung it around his waist after landing firmly on the platform. However, the entire plane of snow in front of me was extremely flat, and there was nothing unusual about itβexcept for the pile of footprints.
Very unwilling, he thought about it carefully, and felt that maybe there was something strange on another platform. But after the Ranger jumped to another platform to check and still didn't receive the goods, Seth finally let out a sigh: Is it really that he thinks too much?
In this way, it can only be an ordinary teleportation circle, and there should be no mechanism. It may have been placed by the Black Ice Mage and informed the Corrupt General. The reason why this guy didn't go to get the giant Yue is probably to avoid grappling and cast a spell to teleport all the soldiers to the roof as soon as possible.
Waving his hand to the people below, Seth strode off the eaves, hooked the beams with his whip, and slowly descended.
