Chapter 613: Shadow Mastiff
There are two sides to everything, there is light and shadow, there is happiness and pain, there is goodness and sin, there are positive and negative golden shields, there are inside and outside of paper, and the plane also has the inside and outside. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
If the normal plane enjoys the sunlight and wind and rain, it is the surface, then on the back of the plane there is a pitch-black dome where the sun, moon and stars cannot be seen, which is the inside, that is, the shadow realm.
The Shadow Realm, also known as the Shadow Realm, is a dark plane that is connected to and coexists with the main plane, glowing with ghostly light, and it borders any plane known to exist, so plane travelers can use the Shadow Realm as a springboard to make swift long-distance jumps to access other planes.
The shadow world is full of black and white contrasts, monotonous and boring, the colors have been infected by the surrounding environment, as dull as the universe, but on the other hand, it presents a strong resemblance to the main plane.
Normally, the geography of the Shadow Realm resembles that of the Main Plane, and if a mage enters the Shadow Realm from a forest, the first thing she sees is a shadow forest opposite it, and if he enters from underwater, he will also appear in the Shadow Sea that writhes like the ocean, and his underwater breathing technique will still work.
However, while there are landmarks to be recognized, the exact map that is ultimately marked is useless, and if a traveler arrives at a mountain range using shadow magic, the next time he returns, the mountains will still be there, but the peaks will be in different places.
Therefore, accuracy cannot be relied upon in the shadow world.
Although dimness has nothing to do with it, there are also many shimmer plants in the shadow world, they can even emit light and illuminate the world themselves, and there are also many evil shadow creatures who regard it as their home and abode, night shadows, undead ghosts, shades, shadow mastiffs, and all kinds of monsters, making the entire shadow world full of killing and competition.
It is a malevolent realm of darkness and power.
It is a hidden place that hates the light.
It is a desolate frontier land far from the unknown.
It is even more of a panic dense place that mortals should not be involved in.
What flashed in Mu En's mind was the introduction of the shadow plane in a book called "Plane Handbook" in the secret library of the Black and White Academy, and the comparison between the two made him feel more and more that he was being pulled into the other half of the main plane, the shadow plane.
With the knowledge of the other world, Mu En was somewhat unable to understand the form of existence in the shadow realm, but for the first time, he thought that he had made a bad mistake to Amenar's plot, and he could quietly pull himself into the shadow plane, perhaps it could be said that he was the most likely.
But when he looked back, he looked at the minotaur with a dazed face as he sobbed and lifted the great axe, and he felt that this was not quite the work of the lich.
The ninth-level spell is known as the forbidden spell spell, which has already involved a trace of the borrowing of the rules of the plane, and it has incredible power in itself.
If it weren't for the Ice King Amenar who happened to choose a spell with the effect of 'Time Stop', and if it weren't for Mu En's extremely strange natural ability in 'space and time', he might have won this battle, but it would definitely not be so easy.
But he didn't believe that Amenar would find a way to pull him into the shadow realm in addition to maintaining the labyrinth technique, and would he need to do it twice if the effects coincided?
The other, although he has fallen from the legendary rank, Yamenar's strength as a transcendent peak spellcaster is still extremely terrifying, to be precise, he can no longer be weighed by transcendental, as evidenced by the ability to use ninth-level spells.
But if the other party really still has this spare strength, then it is better to put another ninth-level spell and come decisively.
But if it's not the Lich's backhand and layout, that means someone else is eyeing him?
Speaking of which, this Marquis of Bach's palace, far away from the Rose Castle, is indeed an excellent opportunity, but who will make a move this time?
Thinking like this, Mu En keenly heard the shouts of killing in the distance, as if someone was fighting, there was the sound of weapons colliding, there was the roar of wild beasts, there were screams, and there were confused footsteps.
He could tell the noise getting closer, as if it was running this way.
Mu En tilted his head, thought slightly, and in the next second, his body turned into afterimages and rushed out......
@@@
It is an extremely long cloister, supported by carved white marble pillars, with whitewashed snow-white walls on one side and a garden blooming with fiery roses on the other.
But at this moment, the mixture of dark purple and crimson blood stained the ground into a messy color, and the roar and roar broke the original peace, and the fragrance of roses was already covered with the stench of blood.
The fighting side was a shadow creature resembling a wolfdog, at least half a man's height, with purple skin but no hair, outlined in bulging muscles, their limbs strong and developed, and their jet-black claws that could easily cut through the rocky ground.
They have the characteristic fangs of carnivores, and when they whimper and roar, they like to show off their satisfied teeth, which look extremely vicious, and the towering eyebrow bones appear to be much deeper, but they are not bloody, but they show bloodthirsty excitement.
This is...... Wraith Mastiff!
The Ghost Mastiff is one of the most common creatures in the Shadow Realm, although they can't speak, their intelligence is not low, the intelligent can even understand language, they survive in the form of tribes, and the strongest can be kings, spawned through duels.
Although they look strong, their favorite thing is to attack in the shadows, and 'blending into the shadows' is their natural ability, but each time it doesn't last long, and when a group of ghost mastiffs act together, the change of body shape is enough to give their enemies a headache.
What's even more terrifying is that in the mastiff group, there are snowy blades that have been slashed from time to time, and a sword blade suddenly appears almost out of nothingness, or a strange backstab, or a dead corner stab, or a flash like a rainstorm, or like a meteor.
In short, although the styles are different, after the blow, they don't care about the result, and disappear in a flash, leaving only the strange smile that should be in mid-air with the barking dog, and the almost distorted ...... Visor!
This is a Kamen Assassin!!
As their enemies, the escort warriors led by Nezel and Venal Jr. rushed through the herd like a tidal wave, led by Wiener Jr., plus eight guardian warriors formed a sharp formation, and advanced through the herd with difficulty.
Little Venal's combat power is extremely violent, as a strong man who has grown up on the battlefield, his moves and styles are full of a kind of 'indomitable, invincible' madness.
The sword opened and closed widely, almost ignoring the enemy's attacks, and only slashed horizontally and vertically along his own thoughts one at a time, but forced the opponent to resist or dodge.
Moreover, although he doesn't use many skills, each sword will produce a strange explosive power, which often looks like nothing, but as long as it touches, under the explosion of that force, it can not only disintegrate the enemy's power, but also have effects such as deflection, knockback, and stun.
This is the characteristic of the Slashing Swordsman, they are majoring in the power of this explosion, and they also believe that as long as they can blast the opponent with the force to break the pause, it is enough for them to kill the opponent.
However, the disadvantage of this profession is also extremely obvious, that is, the physical exertion is too great.
Although the eight guardian warriors are not as domineering as little Venal, they are better than tacit cooperation.
As an elite selected from the Blood Feather Rose Legion, the twelve guardian warriors are not weak, they are all professionals above the first order, and they have been baptized on the battlefield.
There is also special training, whether it is the matching of professions, or mutual cooperation is extremely tacit, the sword is wielded neatly, almost no dead angle can cover a space around, and when the sword collapses, it can also achieve offensive and defensive cooperation.
And inside the defensive circle, the remaining four warriors are 'resting', saying that they are resting, but in fact they are checking and filling in the gaps, they will cautiously stare at the four directions, every time someone encounters danger, it is the moment when they make a move, they may not kill many enemies, but every time they attack it, they will save.
Although the pressure is less, they are always ready, as long as the fighter can't stand it, it's time for them to replace.
In the center of the Blade Formation, Nazel's eyes were as sharp as knives, and his body shape was constantly changing, even with the elven war bow constantly changing angles, shooting out one after another 'empty arrows', or spiraling, or stabbing, or scattering, almost never missing.
What's more, he was almost tracking those masked assassins with his keen sense, and five out of ten times he fired his bow was aimed at those assassins, and if it weren't for his suppression, this formation would not have been maintained now.
And beside Neselle, it was the grand butler of the Marquis of Bach's palace, Couri, who at this time did not have the demeanor he had before, his tuxedo was already covered with dust and blood, and his supple hair was scattered a lot because of the violent running.
He held a long sword in both hands, but when he looked closely, his expression was nervous, and his hands were shaking.
The whole blade formation had a clear purpose, they seemed to want to go somewhere along the corridor, at first they were very fast, but as the shadow mastiffs understood their purpose, after a howl like a wolf and a barking dog, many mastiffs even did not hesitate to show their figures, densely blocking the way forward.
This time, it was like the tip of a needle against Maimang, and no one let anyone, and they collided directly.
Battles are always accompanied by sounds, the sound of weapons breaking through the air, the sound of flesh tearing, heavy gasps, angry roars, grotesque laughter, the sound of hurried disconnection, all of which weave together a death song.
Buzz Buzz Buzz !!
In an instant, the elven warbow opened and closed eight times, directly flying out eight empty arrows, shooting from various seemingly incredible angles, but just right to kill the three mastiffs, blocking two, and the rest stopped before the Kamen Assassin appeared, warning them not to take the next move.
As the siege eased, Nesaire looked around as he stood up again, his brow furrowed.
Although the current defensive circle is relatively stable, the crisis has arrived, and the little Venal, who is the arrow, is almost powerless, his sword is still domineering, and the speed of advance is almost stopped.
The twelve Guardian Warriors had already changed three times, and the steel armor was covered with dense scars, some of which had even penetrated, which could no longer prevent them from being injured, and although the visor obscured their expressions, it could not stop them from breathing heavily.
Although there are no casualties now, they are almost unable to hold on.
Another arrow, the swift flying air blade crashed into a shadow mastiff jumping in mid-air, Nazel only felt the pain in his arms, shoulders and fingertips, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, he was not almost at the limit.
Simply, their destination is almost there!
Nesel glanced at the big butler Kori, and said quickly, "Is the place you said to be the front?"
Kou Li didn't dare to slack off, looked around, determined the location, and immediately said: "Yes, it's the front, after that corner, is the young lady's room, after Young Master Mu En got drunk, we sent him here, and the young lady also followed."
Chief of the guard, please leave with Miss, I don't care if I die, but as the last heir of the Bach family, Miss Michelle must not have an accident!"
Nesel really wants to say, it's all messed up outside, are you sure they didn't leave?
Moreover, although the Phantom Mastiff is not strong, there are too many of them, and until now, the dog king and his escort team have not made a move, not to mention the masked assassins hiding inside.
Even if they didn't leave, even if we picked them up, do you think we can still rush out in this situation?
But when the words came to his mouth, Naizer stopped again, these other parties knew, and he also understood, but he didn't rush over as a 'dead horse as a live horse doctor', as a guard, they didn't die in front of their master, that was a dereliction of duty.
"Okay!" Thinking so, Nezel nodded in agreement, he jumped to his feet, his body stretched in mid-air, and after drawing his bow three times again, his eyes couldn't help but look at the end of the corridor, he needed to determine the distance, and then rushed over with all his might.
But just one glance, he was stunned.
At the end of the corridor, a figure appeared, with torn clothes, messy hairstyle, and bloodstains, all of which looked a little embarrassed.
But that figure was familiar to him, it was...... Muen!
At this moment, the two shadow mastiffs seemed to have discovered Muen's existence, and they turned around, roaring and rushing forward, and with a pounce, their dark claws waving rapidly in mid-air, as if trying to dissect him.
