CHAPTER XXIV
Huge torches hung from huge golden pillars that required four people to hug each other, and long wooden tables were neatly placed on both sides of the main hall, and it was clear that this was the place where the magicians of the Tower used to feast, and now only the Oblivion people sat there in twos and threes. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThere is a 600-metre-long middle aisle that leads up to the tall seats on the stone steps. A thin man in white sat there, wearing a black belt and a crown of gemstones that shimmered with dazzling luster on his head. A torch burned to his left, illuminating half of his pale face and sharp jaw. A sharp left eye stares at us, the other hidden in the darkness.
"Dear Lord Jin Huhe, I have brought your guests here. "Half Dust waved slightly, and Lange and I were stroking shoulders, while Decoin made complicated gestures.
"Warrior of Aria, Lange, mage of the Black Tower, Thor, Elven princess of the Snow Country, Dewen, welcome to the ancient land of the beasts, the realm of the Oblivion, where you will be treated as honored guests in my land, and you will always have a place under my left hand. ”
A sturdy man came out from our right and made a "please" gesture, and we took our seats at a long table where food had been placed, and the menorah was brought to us.
"Let's raise a glass to the guests who come from afar. Jin Huhe raised the fruit wine in his hand, and the Oblivion Clansmen scattered all over the hall echoed loudly. I tasted the fruit wine made by the orcs, it was surprisingly sweet and sweet, and I really didn't know what good things they added to it.
"Thank you for your kindness, the magicians of the Black Tower will not forget this friendship. "As I spoke, I represented all my colleagues in the Black Tower, after all, in someone else's territory, I had to make the master feel that I had face, and I also had to give myself a little confidence.
The patriarch Jin Huhe was overjoyed when he heard this, and asked his subordinates to serve a lot of good wine. After a few wine tours, we explained our intention to Jin Huhe.
After asking an elder, Jin Huhe said: "Within a hundred years, although there are some Terrans visiting, but there is no such situation as you said, although we have few people in the Oblivion Clan, but it is still more than enough to take care of the tower, even if that person flies into the tower from the sky, we can find it, so the person you are looking for, I'm afraid not here." ”
Dai Wen didn't give up, and proposed to Jin Huhe that the three of us would go to the Ground Tower to have a casual look, because there was a huge Tower of Origin, and the upper part was almost unoccupied, if the alchemist had any way to blend in and find a secluded corner to rest, it was entirely possible, after all, the structure of the Tower was too complicated, even if the Bone Clan lived for so long, it could not occupy the entire Tower.
Jin Huhe was naturally not happy to let others check his own territory, I saw his face change slightly, and hurriedly said: "If Lord Jin Huhe agrees to our request, we are willing to serve your lordship." ”
After discussing with the three elders for a long time, Jin Huhe finally replied to us: "There is something I can help you with right now, but this matter is too dangerous, you still have to weigh it carefully." ”
Lange patted his chest: "Lord Jin, but it doesn't matter, we all died on the knife edge, and we really haven't been afraid of anything dangerous." ”
Jin Hu and Zhengse said: "It's a shame to say, twelve years ago, a great elder of my Annihilation Bone Clan betrayed my beast clan and voted for Sobainadine, and now he has done a lot of official positions in Kaitian City. Jin Huhe said this, clenching his fist like an eagle's claw, presumably this betrayal had brought a lot of pain to the Oblivion Clan.
With a sigh of relief, Jin Huhe said: "The person who betrayed the clan is called Meng Li, the original form is a Red Flame Hell Tiger, and he has served as the Great Elder of the Oblivion Bone Clan for more than two hundred years, if you can get rid of this person for me, you can take a good look at this tower." ”
I didn't expect that what Jin Huhe wanted us to do was to clean up the portal, the three of us didn't know anything about Kaitian City, and we were in the hinterland of Sobainadine, so thinking about it, it was indeed extremely dangerous.
"Shall we promise him?" I whispered to Lange and Deco, who hesitated for a moment and nodded, "There's no other way." ”
I stood up and arched my hand, "I'm willing to serve your lordship." ”
Jin Huhe was overjoyed when he heard this, stood up and said: "Your Excellency Sol is really extraordinary, whether this matter is successful or not, the three of them will be the golden candle guests of my Annihilation Clan, come here, change the candle." ”
A young attendant came over and put on a pure gold candlestick, and after a glass of wine and a good conversation, Jin Huhe got down to business.
"This traitor has been doing such a dirty thing for a long time, it's not that we don't want to get rid of him, it's just that he is too cunning, and he knows us, the assassination failed, and he has lost several clansmen. ”
Lange asked, "Can we enter this Open Heaven City casually?"
Jin Huhe said: "Brother Lange first arrived, I don't know our situation, now the population of all ethnic groups in Open Heaven City is getting more and more, and the number of half-orcs is getting smaller and smaller, entering Open Heaven City is not as difficult as before, this is one; ”
It sounded like a good thing to do, but I suddenly felt that something was wrong.
"There are three of us here, my lord. ”
Jin Huhe shook his head: "Princess Dewen can't go, the snow elf is too conspicuous there, the princess stays here, we will take care of her." ”
Decoin shrugged at us helplessly, it seems that this matter can only be done by me and Lange, but that is the Red Flame Hell Tiger, can I do it with Lange?
Jin Huhe seemed to see our hesitation, and said: "This matter must not be done overnight, it still needs to be considered in the long run, you first infiltrate the Open Heaven City, and naturally someone of ours will pick you up, and then slowly find an opportunity to get close to the traitor." Don't you think it's going to be a difficult thing to do, and if it does, there will be a lot of treasures left in this tower, and you'll be able to get a lot of benefits out of it, right, magician. ”
I nodded, this tower is indeed a treasure, and the magic records and runes left behind alone do it a lot of good for a magician. There are too many magic destroyed by the war in the Fourth Age, and too little magic left to us by our ancestors. Although the Oblivion can transform into a human form, they are beasts after all, and most of the magic left by the Terrans cannot be used, and for us, the Ground Tower is a priceless treasure.
