Chapter 378: The Temptation of Treasures
Chapter 378: The Temptation of Treasures
"Damn Vaness, you should have teamed up with Finney to get rid of your ...... first at all costs"
There are three major forces in the palace, Marais's forbidden army, the Sanctuary swordsman Vaness, and the Sanctuary mage Finney! Marais and Finney are already considering a way out, and after preparing to make a big profit in the treasure house, they immediately retreat, while Vaness, because of the royal family's great favor in his early years, has always been loyal to the empire, and he does not agree with the first two actions.
It is precisely because of these three discords that the surviving treasures in the palace, except for one or two that have been quietly moved by Marais, the others are all restored to their original places waiting to be discovered!
"Do you fight to the death, or do you retreat immediately...... If you fight to the death, will you have a chance to destroy Aaron?If you retreat immediately, then the remaining treasure house will probably have to change your surname!" countless thoughts flashed in Marais's soul. It's not that he can't give up his possessions, it's that the amount of possessions makes it impossible for anyone to resist, and it's not that he doesn't have the courage to fight hard, but that Aaron's reputation is too terrifying.
After hesitating for a while, Marais slowly settled down, turned his head to a henchman and ordered: "Go and gather all the demon crossbows together, and guard in front of the main hall with Lord Vanes and Lord Finney, and kill the enemy as soon as they find it......"
The treasure house, Marais didn't want to give up easily, but for his own life, he saw it more important! The Demon Killing Crossbow was the biggest trump card in his hand, and it was the only weapon used to fight against the powerhouses of the Sanctuary.
If you can kill Aaron, it is the best, if not, then run away as soon as possible! I believe that Aaron, who is busy searching for the treasure house, should not be able to find the time to hunt him down.
"With the treasures of the previous two treasure troves, it is enough to maintain the family for a thousand years, and I can't joke with my life anymore......"
To be honest, Marais was not at all sure whether he could kill Aaron, after all, the Great Elder's reputation had been there all these years!
Although Marais's mind turned back and forth, it actually only consumed a short period of time! Alun, who was blocked by layers of magic prohibitions, had not yet entered the hinterland of the palace at this time, and there was enough time for Marais to discharge a formation to snipe Aaron's invasion!
"Hey, I didn't break through earlier, but I was wise!"
With a bang, a humanoid passage was knocked out on a magic prohibition, and Aaron's figure still moved forward in a straight line, and casually smashed the heads of several guards he encountered, his face did not move, but the Great Elder was also glad for his earlier caution!
Although the magic prohibition at this time was extremely fragile, even if Aaron did not use his excess strength, he could completely collapse it, but in the process of continuous impact, he also realized some of the subtleties of the prohibition. These magical prohibitions are ubiquitous, dividing the palace into countless areas, and no matter which area you break through, it will be detected by the people who run the prohibitions, and there is no hiding place at all!
If Aaron's feeling is not wrong, these prohibitions should have been driven by dragon power, and they were forcibly run by magicians at this time, although they could also be promoted, but they unreasonably missed the most important nature of the prohibition, which greatly frustrated his ability!
It's not that the magicians of the royal family are too weak, it's that they're not dragons. This is also the fundamental reason why Aaron can rampage through it without using his own strength! If it is those dragons who control the ban, I am afraid that Aaron will immediately be controlled and forbidden by them, and he will be confined to one area.
While heading straight to the hinterland of the palace, Aaron was also pondering the purpose of his trip, thinking about how to search the treasure house. It's not impossible to search slowly, it's too troublesome, and it's hard to sweep them all away! Only by catching someone who might know the approximate location can you find all the treasure troves in the fastest time!
"The location of the treasure house, in addition to the core members of the royal family, there should also be some high-ranking members of the forbidden army. The core members of the royal family, at this time, should know best with those favored concubines, as for the high-level of the forbidden army, hey, there will always be encounters!"
On one side, Aaron was advancing rapidly towards the heart of the palace, while on the other side, the two Sanctuary powerhouses combined a large number of forbidden armies and some demon slashing crossbows, and were waiting in battle!
Only Marais was the most free, and at this time he was already running towards the outside of the palace. No matter which side wins, news will reach him as quickly as possible, and his life will not be threatened!
"All first-level alert! The enemy is less than two kilometers away from here, all the personnel control the magic array together, pay attention, don't rush to increase the output of ** force first, wait for the enemy to appear and then obey my orders, and control it with all your might, be sure to ensure that the enemy is bound ......up at the first time."
Before the main hall, the Holy Magister Finney, who had taken over the control of the magic ban, was also directing all the members of the mage group to work together to control the magic ban while mastering the location of Aaron's traces through the ban. With the addition of Finney, the Holy Magister, everyone's control over the prohibition has obviously improved in terms of strength and ease!
Hearing Finney's words, the Sanctuary Swordsman Vaness, who was holding a golden spear in his hand, turned his head to look at the leader of the forbidden army standing beside him: "Are all the Demon Slayer crossbows ready?"
"Lord Vaness, please rest assured, the forty-nine Demon Slaying Crossbows have now been distributed at various points, and all the Holy Blood Arrows have been loaded, so we can completely destroy them in the first place, no matter where the enemy sneaks in. ”
The leaders of the forbidden army are full of confidence in the power of the demon crossbows, and according to legend, they are the things given by the dragon god in ancient times, and they are the peerless weapons of the founding emperor of the city-state of St. Ferry, the Dragon Emperor, when he fought the world. With the Holy Blood Arrow, it can not only ignore the defense of most magic enchantments, but also has super penetrating ability to the fighting spirit, and the Demon Killing Crossbow and the Holy Blood Arrow also have a mysterious power that directly attacks the soul, even the demons with strong vitality are dead under their attacks.
For thousands of years, these forty-nine Demon Destroying Crossbows and the Holy Blood Arrows that matched them have been stained with the blood of many strong people! It is precisely because of these deeds that the leader of the forbidden army has such confidence in them, in his mind, no matter who it is, once he encounters these forty-nine Demon Destroying Crossbows, he will be shot to the soul in the first place, and there will be no chance of reincarnation!
It can be said that after the dragon clan left, these forty-nine demon crossbows were the last sharp weapon of the city-state of St. Ferry, and if used properly, any strong person would have a headache against it. It was on this basis that Marais, the commander of the forbidden army, was able to compete with the two Sacred Domain powerhouses, and even had a slight upper hand, occupying the two royal treasury first!
Eyes turned around, the huge silver shelves had been scattered and separated, on the shelves, a crossbow body that could rotate flexibly completely enveloped the main hall in its attack range in all directions, and in the arrow hole in the center of the crossbow body, a blood-red crossbow arrow with hidden power was also ready, just waiting for the appearance of the enemy at this time!
It's just that although everything is ready, Vaness still doesn't dare to be careless, Marais can guess the identity of the enemy, and he is naturally a little suspicious. The astonishing power that Aaron displayed that day still haunted his soul like a nightmare......
As if sensing the fear that arose in Vaness's soul, a faint light suddenly shot out from the golden spear, and an incomparably divine power came out, and in an instant, Vaness's mental wounds that had been affected by the Nine Shades Law and had not been able to recover were completely healed.
"Don't be careless, the enemy may be the murderer of the emperor, his strength has not been matched by few people since ancient times, if you are not sure of it, don't waste the arrow of holy blood. It's best to wait for Finney and them to temporarily bind Aaron through the ban and then strike a fatal blow! The Holy Blood Arrow ignores the forbidden defenses, and then is the best time to hunt for his life and avenge our emperor!"
Feeling the divine power coming from the golden spear, Vaness's mind had completely regained its tranquility, and in this instant, his cultivation had reached a higher level, and the whole person was like the arrow of holy blood on the crossbow, just waiting for the enemy to appear and strike the strongest blow. Even if it was Aaron, his state of mind was defenseless!
Echoing Vaness's fighting spirit, the golden spear in his hand was also trembling slightly, and a murmuring sound wrapped around the body of the spear, and the divine power of the emperor began to faintly emanate!
"Huh!"
The mutation on Vaness's body naturally couldn't hide from Finney, who was close at hand, even if he was fully controlling the forbidden magic circle, Finney couldn't help but turn his head to look, the first thing that attracted his attention was not Vaness himself, whose strength and realm were both improved, but the golden gun in his hand, which was nothing special at the beginning, but at this time it was suddenly shrouded by the power of a Holy Emperor!
"The Holy Spear Demon Destroyer, it's the Holy Emperor's Relic - the Holy Spear Demon Demon!" Finney didn't exit, but several royal masters beside Vanes had already told the origin of the golden spear.
Thousands of years ago, the Dragon Emperor used this gun to fight all the strongest people in the world, and even signed an agreement with the dragon clan, single-handedly creating the immortal glory of the city-state of St. Ferry for thousands of years!
It's just that after the Divine Dragon Emperor went, the Holy Spear Demon disappeared mysteriously, and it has never been seen since!
However, in the countless legends of the Divine Dragon Emperor, this holy spear demon is no one, and when he reappears at this time, he is recognized by the royal master at a glance, but he can't imagine that this holy spear is actually in the hands of Vaness!
The aura of the holy spear was fleeting, but the divine fluctuations condensed in it, even through dozens of magic prohibition barriers, were still detected by Aaron. The figure stopped suddenly, and a trace of surprise flashed in Aaron's eyes, it turned out to be a law fluctuation! Although this law fluctuation was extremely unfamiliar, extremely weird, and fleeting, but Aaron, who was extremely sensitive to the power of the law, instantly noticed it.
"Is it a god-level powerhouse? No, it shouldn't be possible! If the city-state of St. Ferri had a god-level powerhouse, it wouldn't be in the current predicament!" With a thought in his mind, Alun quickly denied the first conjecture: "Since it is not a god-level powerhouse, then it can only be an apostle of the gods, or an artifact." The possibility of the apostle of the god should not be very large, although the city-state of St. Philip believes in the dragon god, but the apostle of the dragon god has always been the holy dragon clan, and the dragon clan has withdrawn from the mainland, and it is unlikely that there will be a dragon god apostle here. The biggest possibility is that it's an artifact!"
After all, the city-state of St. Ferri has existed for thousands of years, and it has been glorious for a while, and it is not impossible to say that there is a half-piece artifact stored in the treasure house. At this time, the royal family existed in name only, and the city-state of St. Ferri itself was in danger, and the imperial treasury was probably rummaged over by internal thieves.
"Artifact...... Hehe...... I just wanted to lure out the hidden power of the royal family, but I didn't expect that there was still this ......"
Although there was no strong man in the palace who could threaten him, the always cautious Aaron was still not careless. After all, the city-state of St. Ferri has lasted for thousands of years, even if it is weak, if the palace where its core is located does not have some hidden powerful means, it is not possible!
Aaron restrained his aura of strength, relying on the strong ** to directly collide with the ban, which seemed to be unscrupulous, but in fact, he wanted to attract the means of the shadows. It's just that along the way, Aaron has encountered some ordinary forbidden soldiers, and such an abnormal situation has long made his spirit full of vigilance!
Looking at the place where the fluctuations disappeared from afar, Alun suddenly laughed dryly, raised his hand weakly, and a huge destructive power suddenly burst out, only to hear a loud bang, and several forbidden barriers around him were immediately shattered, and as soon as the prohibition was shattered, there were strong shocking fluctuations scattered out, shaking the nearby forbidden barriers!
"Oh no! Everybody keeps the circle running, he's done it! Vaness, be on guard, there's no trace of him!"
Aaron suddenly struck a blow and shattered the ban, and Finney, who was slightly distracted by the Holy Spear Demon Punishment, was immediately awakened, and hurriedly commanded the mage group to control the forbidden circle again, but when they stabilized the circle, they could no longer detect Aaron's traces!
Countless barriers were smashed along the way, and although Aaron still hadn't grasped the core of the prohibition, he still had some understanding of some of the laws of their existence!
The palace is artificially divided into countless areas, but each adjacent area must have a passage for people to walk and guard, and these passages are often the gates that connect the various courtyards!
Failing to seduce the intended target, but unexpectedly sensing the artifact's fluctuations, Aaron changed his previous rampage of savagery, and instead passed through those gates, quickly approaching the direction of the main hall in a circuitous way!
As a connecting passage for various areas, there are some forbidden troops guarding each connecting gate, but these forbidden troops naturally can't stop Aaron. Without the slightest bit of power, Aaron's figure flickered like a ghost, and every time he flashed to the connecting passage, the golden-colored hands would directly smash the heads of all of them before the many guards had time to react.
With no forcible impact on the forbidden barrier, and no power fluctuations coming out, Finney couldn't pinpoint Aaron's whereabouts!
"Don't panic, send out sixteen demon crossbows to block the gates of each entrance, and the rest of the people continue to be on guard, whether it is the gate or the forbidden barriers around it, don't relax!"
Because of the Holy Spear, Vaness's mind was always in a state of tranquility, and everyone was slightly frightened by Finney's words, but he was the only one who thought of the key point for the first time.
Without relying on the previous brute force to hit the prohibition and escape from Finney's perception, then only the various passage gates without the existence of the prohibition barrier could allow him to achieve this goal. Although each passage gate is guarded by the Praetorian Army, if it is Aaron, it is not uncommon for them to have no time to raise the alarm!
"Come on, if it's you...... With the power of this holy spear, I should wash away the shame of the empire!"
The power aura of the Demon Slaying Holy Spear was immediately relieved, but Nirama, who had been alert for a long time, determined its general location!
Instead of luring the tiger out of the mountain in the most old-fashioned way, Aaron turned into a ghost and followed the path to the main temple, slaughtering all visible creatures along the way like a god of death. In addition to the forbidden army guards, there are only palace maids and attendants in the palace, with the strength of these people, not to mention how many obstacles are caused to Aaron, not even half of his strength can be consumed!
The power of the law is unfathomable, and the ontology not only needs to be tempered, but also has a great chance to have any hope of being practiced. However, with the super endowment of the power of the power of the innate adaptation of the divine body, and the group of servants who came quite smoothly, the many opportunities and challenges in the past ten years have been relatively easy to refine into the body, and the speed of progress is really incredible!
This time, he used the strong ** to directly collide with the magic ban, although he wanted to lure the tiger out of the mountain, but he did not test the reason for the toughness of the body. It's just that there is no dragon host, and this magic ban obviously can't cause the slightest damage to Aaron's body, and naturally it can't achieve Aaron's goal!
Slaughtering the forbidden army and those palace maids with such a strong body, especially the elite masters in the forbidden army are still concentrated near the main hall, with the strength of these people, even if they have sharp weapons in their hands, they still can't even break Aaron's fur, let alone consume his strength.
However, after a while, Aaron pointed in the direction of the main hall, passed through dozens of courtyards in a roundabout way, and did not know how many heads of the forbidden army were broken, and finally approached the vicinity of the main hall!
Through several layers of thin forbidden barriers, Aaron's spiritual tentacles could already slightly sense some of the situation in the main hall, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "You actually want to snipe me in this palace with countless courtyards and countless shadows." Are you too confident, or is that artifact too powerful?"
With a wave of his hand, he only heard a few "pops", and several strong men of the forbidden army were all shot to death by Aaron without any power to fight back, even if the forbidden army here already has some masters, and even among these people who have just been killed, there is still a master, but in the hands of Aaron, it is still so vulnerable, and all problems can be solved by only brute force!
After solving all the forbidden armies, Aaron's figure disappeared suddenly, and the most important thing in the palace is the house, where there is a house, there will naturally be a shadow, and where there is a shadow, it is Aaron's natural invisibility!
