Chapter 41: The Battle of Elondale (2)
For adventurers in the gray area, death is a commonplace thing in daily life, except for the partners who often work together, or close family members, the life and death of other adventurers are not the same thing for them. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
At most, he stood in front of the cold corpse, paid his respects in a brief silence, turned around and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, collected the excess emotions, and plunged into an adventure with no end in sight.
Some people may be lucky enough to be shot in the knee and be able to choose a decent retirement in the envy of their peers, but most adventurers, if they do not earn enough pension, will have to continue to live a life of endless life and adventure.
In the underground world of the north, there have been a succession of big high-rollers throwing out big orders to buy moon well water, and the personal experience of the dark wizard Hindlin astrology has successfully aroused the interest of many bigwigs who see the sunset and enter the twilight of their lives.
Not to mention the first-class adventurer guilds such as the Crimson Knights, the Brotherhood of Iron Fist, and the Dawn Tavern, even the enemies of the giants, which had not been established for a long time, happily bought relevant information at a large price, and rushed to the rumored ruin-like elven kingdom as soon as possible.
It's a pity that so far, Elondell is not a big fat pig to be slaughtered, nor is it a borderless land to claim at will, on the contrary, the adventurers present have lost some of their manpower, but still do not know the details of the elven kingdom, and just maintain the basic operation of the Lost Lock Enchantment, which has caused many teams to hit the ground and bleed.
Elondale seemed to be hidden in a veil of mist, and everyone worked together to see how the undying army of the undead worked together to execute the standard and appropriate tactics, and constantly harvested the spoils, resulting in shocking casualties.
The adventurers finally set foot on the land of the elven kingdom, and there is no suitable reason not to stop the action, they can only continue to move forward, but the more they go inside, the more worried they are about whether there is a more terrible danger hidden in the depths of Elondale.
"Moonlight" Muria from the Crimson Knight Guild looked at his partner behind him, plus he only had seven people, the standard configuration of a standard field adventure team, but in the face of the surprise attack of dozens of undead creatures, it would be self-deception to say that he was not worried.
"If there is no other way, although you will lose part of the harvest and divide some of the benefits, it is better than leaving empty-handed. ”
The three adventurer guilds, the Crimson Knights, the Brotherhood of Iron Fist, and the Dawn Tavern, were previously members of the Adventurers' Guild who crossed the river to rescue the giant's enemy out of "moral" considerations, and in some ways, could use this as an opportunity to form temporary allies through an exchange of benefits.
This kind of alliance in a state of emergency is not without precedent, at the end of last summer, when the python disaster broke out unexpectedly in the Sleeping Valley in the north, twelve adventurer teams temporarily formed an alliance, relying on Taniguchi's geographical advantages to resist together, until the regular army entered the field, and used large war weapons to completely eliminate this man-made disaster.
Moonlight Murray just wants to use a precedent to convince the leaders of the other two unions, but there are smart people everywhere in this world, and the red-haired Chryss also perceives the weakness of his team and wants to choose the right team to keep warm.
As for the giant fist Eugen, who has a rough and bold personality and a big grin between words, and can hardly hide his true colors, the big brother praised by this adventurer, has long had the idea of forming an alliance in his heart.
When he saw Moonlight Muria and the red-haired Chris in contact, he forcibly squeezed in regardless of his identity, insisting on interfering in the temporary covenant.
"Champagne" takes a fancy to the fierce and unrivaled fist power of the giant fist Eugen, and the reputation of the Iron Fist Brotherhood is in the north, whether it is an ordinary adventurer or the underground world, it is not bad, at least there is no bad record of breaking the contract.
Therefore, the Crimson Knights, the Brotherhood of the Iron Fist, and the Tavern of Dawn immediately reached a consensus on the task of going deep into the elven kingdom of Elondale and finding the water of the moon well, and the three leaders agreed to advance and retreat together, and share the benefits they obtained.
The signed written covenant was only the beginning, and it had to be witnessed by the priest in the party to make a temporary covenant between the adventurers.
At the same time, Lu Bin still stayed in the vast glade, sitting at the core of the illusion vestibule, "guarding" the water lily-lily-shaped stone platform stored by Shuijie Lanya.
"It's really an unexpected but reasonable choice for a plate of scattered adventurers to start joining forces, could it be that the blow I inflicted on them just now was too hard? But the undead under my command have also died, and they have no recycling value, so they can only be sent to the burial place as fertilizer. ”
"That's right, that's right. In the eyes of adventurers, undead creatures are just some wild monsters that can farm experience and equipment, but they did not expect that once they are combined and formed, they can exert much more power than ordinary undead creatures fighting alone. ”
Lu Bin pondered for a moment, "I like adventurers who fight alone, and against these self-esteemed lone travelers, I will command hordes of rancid lone wolves to completely drown them with an avalanche-like attack." ”
Immediately, he turned his head and shouted to the location where Shui Jie Lanya was: "Hey, friends, dozens of people outside are coming to trouble me, help!"
Speaking to the air, Lu Bin's actions made Tellant, the guardian staying in the core area of the Elven Kingdom, want to laugh a little, but he quickly understood, and used his authority to activate the water ring Lanya of the core node of the Misty Lock, releasing a wide range of fog techniques.
His Royal Highness Elidan, the legendary elven master, has woven a deep mountain maze lock, which has been completely integrated with the surrounding environment after a hundred years. So when the Guardian Tyrient unleashed an ordinary natural spell, the reindeer river returned to normal, and a long murmur of mist immediately rose up.
Even in the dry and cold winds of late autumn, the ground covered with a thick layer of dead leaves also has a light mist slowly rising, affecting and even disturbing the eyes of most adventurers.
As soon as Lu Bin's request was issued, the fog arrived as he wished, and he immediately knew that the request for help just now had been answered, and at the same time, he also knew something about the fact that he was being monitored at any time and anywhere.
Although he felt a little uncomfortable, Lu Bin had no extra thoughts at this time. If the Guardian of the Ruins didn't do that, he would have begun to wonder if His Highness Tellant had been kicked in the head by a stupid donkey as a child.
Of course, among the many adventurers with all kinds of wonderful abilities, there are many real people who can see through the cover of the fog and even ignore this natural spell that blends with the environment without distinguishing between them, including the Moonlight Meria of the Crimson Knights.
When the combined team of twenty people began to advance into the depths of Elondale, Muria, with the Eye of the Moon, stood at the front of the group, leading the companions who followed behind him, always taking the shortest shortcut, never stray from the right path.
Eugen of the Great Fist marched alongside him, donning iron gloves full of spikes in his knuckles, ready to strike any undead creature that dared to come into his sight.
"I saw the road to the core of the Elven Kingdom, but about five hundred meters away from the team, there was a glade that must be passed, shrouded in a dark purple aura of illusion, which even my Eye of the Moon could not see. ”
The Big Brother of the Iron Fist Brotherhood thought about it carefully, he was deeply aware of his shortcomings, and immediately responded: "Mr. Muria, can you take a long way to get around." I don't have your aura in my head, and illusion can easily knock me down. ”
Not far behind them, the red-haired Chryss hurriedly shouted: "It's better not to do this, in the open forest behind us, someone has already learned that we have begun to form a team, and they are very fast in terms of efficiency and speed." If we take a long detour, we will definitely make the harvest to people. ”
Moonlight Murray looked back, and her pure white left eye saw a broken thigh bone and a golden hourglass, "The enemy of the giants we rescued, somehow it turned out to be on the clock tower union, that group of obsessive-compulsive people who race against time, there is a person inside, it is said that there is no illusion that can stump him, and will definitely break through the barrier and enter the core area of Elondale." ”
Giant Fist Eugen couldn't help but shout loudly, "Then let them test the depth of the water first, after all, the undead master in the outer area just now tossed us enough, I don't believe that the enemy of the giants and the clock tower can easily break through." Perhaps they will be greeted by a more ferocious and formidable army of the undead. ”
The red-haired Chris, who also thought of this, rarely did not express his opinion, expressing his attitude in silence. This is two to one, even if Moonlight Murray has other ideas, but unfortunately there is no one to support him, he doesn't want to go his own way and risk tearing the team apart.
Furthermore, the high-level illusions that even his moon eyes can't see through must hide unknown dangers, and it is better for others to test them than to use the blood and paving the way of his own brothers and partners.
At the same time, Lu Bin stayed in the vestibule of illusion and closed his eyes and took a nap, and suddenly opened his eyes, and the battle that belonged to him was about to start again.
"Come on, friends, get ready, and die. ”
