Touching the stone door, Tuga's eyes went dark, and then he was teleported to a large, empty square chamber, where four huge beasts came into view. The masked woman looked back to find an exit, but the door was gone. At this time, Tuga and the masked woman were spotted by the giant beast, and a violent roar rushed towards them like a shockwave, and Tuga's overcoat was shattered, revealing the plate chain composite armor inside. In the constant reverberating roar, the giant beast rushed over, the overwhelming momentum and the vibration generated by the movement made people have the illusion of a landslide and a crack, the two quickly left the door, Tuga and the masked woman made eye contact for a moment, and began to tacitly disperse the attack.
Fortunately, both of them were agile, the intelligence of the giant beasts was not high, and the secret room was wide enough, and the four giant beasts should have been shot into hedgehogs and fell to the ground to die. But it's a pity that a bag of arrows was shot empty, and the giant beast was still fierce, which still made the two of them embarrassed. Tuga shot an arrow through the head of a giant beast, the arrow coming through the eye socket and peeking out through the back of the head. But the beast still didn't look injured in the slightest, and even after a puff of black smoke came out of the wound, the arrows were melted and restored.
"No, if we continue like this, we will be exhausted sooner or later, and we must find a way to crack it, what do you think. Tuga took a moment to say to the masked woman
It's a pity that the masked woman's physical strength is much worse than Tuga's, and she can't answer at all when she is out of breath, but she also takes the time to observe the secret room.
Tuga noticed the other party's difficulty, and said, "You take the opportunity to hook one of the two on my side with a bow and arrow, and I will try to use a sword." ”
The masked woman lived up to her promise and succeeded in luring away a giant beast, and Tuga drew the king's sword and quickly approached one of the giant beasts. Flashing a huge hammer, Tuga slashed at the wrist of the giant beast with a sword, and the sharp blade slashed into half of the wrist before it was stuck, and then pulled violently, as if trying to expand the wound, but as soon as the blade left, after a burst of black smoke, the wrist recovered as before. Enraged by the pain, the monster let go of the hammer and slapped Tuga with a backhand, but before he could get close, the huge palm wind blew Tuga's face into a dent, and he was about to be slapped into a meatloaf.
At the critical moment, Tuga's pupils contracted sharply, and the speed of the giant beast's palm began to slow down, and he narrowly deflected his body to dodge, and took the opportunity to take the sword to cut off two fingers of the giant beast. What she saw in the masked woman's eyes was another scene, she saw Tuga draw his sword and get close, halfway through a disguised flashing of the giant beast's sledgehammer, and then cut the giant beast's forearm, and then the giant beast because of the pain, the reflexive backhand wave, wanted to fan Tuga away, at this time Tuga, who should have been knocked away, I don't know why, very chic with the sword so spinned, the monster's fingers were cut off. It's a long story, but it's actually a matter of a moment.
Unfortunately, before the severed finger hit the ground, it turned into black smoke and disappeared, and then the palm of the giant beast returned to normal. The beast was even more furious, and suddenly it roared violently, and the fire around it dimmed, and then black smoke began to come out of its body, its eyes turned red, and it grabbed its hammer and rushed towards Tuga.
As if infected by the fury emotion, the other three giant beasts also went berserk one after another, and the flames that were originally burning around them jumped three times violently, becoming extremely dim. The dim environment had little effect on Tuga, who had the talent of Eagle Eye, and he could even see streaks of black smoke connecting to the four monsters in the firelight. But for the masked woman, it was miserable, and the sudden change in the intensity of the light made her blind for a short time. You can only rely on your sense of hearing to judge the enemy's movements, but the sound echoing around you is no longer enough to accurately judge, and you are in a deadly danger at once.
Tuga saw that the masked woman's space for movement was getting smaller and smaller, and the strength of the behemoth after the rage had increased significantly, and just a little rubbing was enough to turn that beautiful body into a mutilated one. Seeing that the three monsters had formed a circle, the masked woman held a round shield with a broken horn and a half-saber in response, and only occasionally looked at Tuga's eyes as bright as the morning star in the dark night......
Tuga understood the message in his eyes, and there was trust, tolerance, blessing, hope, and ...... , He suddenly felt so uncomfortable, there seemed to be something called grief and indignation roaring in his chest and abdomen, and a voice suddenly came out of his head: "Extinguish the fire in the four corners." ”
Tuga's eyes contracted again, and everything began to slow down again. He threw the King's Sword at the torch behind him, then quickly took out his bow and three arrows, ignoring the impending sledgehammer and shot the three arrows at the remaining three torches. Three arrows at the same time detach from the bowstring and fly towards their target, bump, bump, bump. The three torches were destroyed, but the monster was not affected in any way, and Tuga looked at the masked woman in despair, just as the masked woman realized that she had nowhere to run, and took one last look at Tuga, who seemed to smile at him...... The sledgehammer held high by the behemoth had reached the top of Tuga's head, and he didn't dodge......
The sword of the king finally flew to its destination, shattering the last torch. A violent wind blew in the secret room in an instant, and a huge black lightning bolt from the beginning of time hit the giant beasts furiously, and the four giant beasts were frozen by the lightning and let out a heart-rending howl. After the black smoke on his body was swept away, his body shrank significantly, becoming about the size of the troll outside.
Taking advantage of the time when the trolls were frozen by lightning, the masked woman and Tuga escaped the danger of death, when the wind subsided, the two were already supporting each other, the masked man gasped violently, but unfortunately the two had no time to rest at all, the four trolls were shaking their heads and getting up from the ground, Tuga pushed the masked man behind him, yelled and took out his bow and arrows to shoot, and when he shot all the arrows, he found that the trolls had long since died and could not die anymore. He didn't even notice that there was a red flame in the dimly lit chamber, eerily suspended in mid-air......
The sigil of the Radiant Dragon in his hand began to glow again, and then drew the red flame into Tuga's palm, and the fire began to condense, and finally turned into a red gem.
Suddenly, the secret room began to shake, and the masked woman said to the stunned Tuga: "There's a box over there, go and open it and take a look, I guess this place is going to collapse." ”
Tuga hurriedly ran over, and by the way, he went to the corner to pick up his king sword, and opened the huge box, which was actually only an unknown item with a bull's horn and a blue body with gold trim, and the magic fluctuations on it were very small, but from time to time some glowing dust formed around it, which looked very beautiful.
"Hurry, there's no time!" Tuga couldn't take a closer look at all the things and put them into dimensional space, and helped the masked woman to run towards the entrance. Luckily, the entrance had been opened when Tuga had killed all the trolls, and the two of them had just stepped into the watery exit and returned to the hall where they had met the masked woman when they first entered. Everything was normal in the hall, and the earthquake seemed to disappear. When she got out of the cave, the masked woman disappeared, and even the people at the door didn't notice her, so it seemed that there should be another secret passage, but apparently she didn't want Tuga to know. Tuga beckoned to the crowd, rested a little in the village, and prepared to continue delivering the letter. When Tuga left the village, the masked woman suddenly appeared again, startling Mama Chamanid and the others, Tuga wanted to talk a few words, but who knew that she just quickly admonished Tuga to flip it over, and then patted the horse away.
Returning the same way, he encountered a lot of bandits, but Tuga didn't give the bandits a chance to gather calmly this time, and single-handedly killed the small group of bandits who seemed to be trying to harass them and fled. In the end, the bandits all fled, for fear that if they were not careful, an arrow would fly from the sky and kill them. Returning to Palaven, Tuga finally finished venting and went to the palace to meet King Haraus, who was so arrogant that he compared the dark Ones to a hungry farmer who could kill a large area with a single sneeze.
Tuga had no intention of making a fool of himself with the nobles, and left the king's inner fort with a sneer, but was stopped at the city gate......
He was stopped by the court scholar Tangier, a visionary figure rarely seen in Swadia. He told Tuga some secrets and told him to visit the famous scholar Trapp in Azgode. After a little thought, Tuga decided to take this proposal, after all, he also wanted to know more about the dark forces, after all, he could be said to be on the opposite side of the dark forces, and it was necessary to understand his enemies.
The road was relatively calm, and the caravan marched quickly, and in order to speed up, Tuga bought some carts and horses, plus the newly hired knights could bring some people, and ran from Paraven to Azgoth in only half a day, if it were not for the delay of a little time when passing through a certain village, in order to save some miserable villagers who had just been sacked, he could have been faster.
A seemingly prosperous village, well-equipped and populous, but it can't hide the depressing atmosphere, and it seems that it has undergone some not-so-good changes not long ago. As Tuga was about to enter the village, he saw a disorganized team confronting a dark horse knight. It seems that the enemy judged that something was wrong, and thought that Tuga and the others were here to support the Dark Horse Knights, so they went straight to war. Seeing the crossbow arrows shooting towards his team, Tuga immediately counterattacked, who knew that as soon as he took out his bow and arrows and prepared to shoot, a whole team of nearly 100 people on the opposite side was all shocked to death by the 'qi' released by the dark horse knight in this short period of time.
Tuga was completely stunned, because he had also comprehended the 'Qi Strike', so he was even more surprised than the average person, and he could see that it was a means of 'Qi Attack'. Compared to this dark horse knight, his 'qi attack' is simply the level of a baby. He estimated that even Kai would be far from this level of rebellion.
"Head, let's get out of here!" Mama Tea whispered to Tuga.
"Yes, head, hurry, I'll turn the carriage and horses around first. Manid chimed in.
"Shut up, stand down for fear of death, Theon, don't move, wait for me to ask about the situation. Although Tuga was also a little apprehensive, he was still ready to step forward.
"Tuga, I'm with you. Sain didn't listen to the command and just patted his horse to follow.
"I'll go too. When Jamila saw that someone was taking the lead, she followed, and by the way, she also despised Manid and Mama Cha.
Mama Cha and Manid briefly looked at each other, the former silently following, the latter sighing and staying where he was. Tuga wasn't very close to the Dark Horse Knight, and with what he had just observed, he stopped outside the range of the knight's 'Qi Strike' and greeted the other side: "Greetings to Tuga, respected knight, can you tell me what's going on here?"
The dark horse knight shook off the blood on the knife and slowly looked up at Tuga, a pair of shining eyes with a terrifying light, and directly fixed all the people who followed Tuga in front of him. The knight put a fold on his lips and said, "Tuga, interesting name, before I tell you anything, I can tell you my name, Finreal." ”
"Hello, Mr. Finreal, please forgive me for my faux pas. These are my men, and we came to visit the scholar Trapp. Tuga said with a salute.
"I just killed a bunch of damn grain conscripts, and they've done a lot of bad things along the way. Finreal put away his weapon as he spoke, then looked at Tuga with a smile.
"These bastards deserve punishment, I've heard about it when I pass through a village on the way. Tuga said indignantly.
Finreal put away part of his smile and said easily but firmly, "Death is the best punishment. ”
"I have a better way than to kill them, and no matter what, I'm going to let these bastards and scum experience the same pain first. Tuga was suddenly a little surprised that he could be so angry.
Finreal gave Tuga a meaningful look, then turned to leave. Tuga and the others naturally did not dare to stop them, and after a moment of silence, Manid began to collect the equipment and seizures of the grain collection team, and sighed: "These people are just acting on orders, and there is no one to collect the corpses when they die here." "Aren't you the one who collected the corpses? Let's go, visit our scholars, it's been a long time coming. Tuga sighed and walked into the village, only to meet the village chief with a group of people.
Knowing from the village chief that Trapp was dead, Tuga had to give up, and although he felt a little strange about Trapp's death, he had no heart to investigate the matter. Beckoning Manid to return the capture of the convoy to the villagers, Tuga was about to leave, but the village chief stopped him and gave him a thick book, saying that it was Trapp's relics.
Take this Calradia encyclopedia and look through the first volume carefully, it turns out that this thing is basically equivalent to an encyclopedic dictionary, and if you encounter words you don't understand when reading a book, allusions, etc., you just need to look up this book, and you can immediately get the answer you want. It's a pity that it's only half of it, and if you can read the whole set, your knowledge level will definitely be greatly improved, and you may even find a detailed description of the dark ones.
Even Tuga found a description of the star horn in the book: in the eight hundred and fifty-seventh year of the continental calendar, darkness arose, enveloping the earth, like the dark forces of the sky, launched a holy war against Calradia, for a time of blood and pestle, life and soul were devastated, the god king Xingchen in order to save the world, cut off his little thumb to make a horn, the horn turned into a meteor and fell from the sky, and fell on the fleeing Leon, under the guidance of the horn, Leon escaped countless fatal killings, got countless opportunities, and finally defeated the dark forces and became a generation of holy kings......
