Chapter 374: The One Who Knocks on the Door in the Middle of the Night
Donner subconsciously extinguished the fire ball and remained silent, even opening his mouth slightly to ensure that his breathing was long and quiet, which was the killer technique that Gernada had taught him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
On such a night when the beast tide is coming, it is really a terrifying thing to be in the dark stone room where you can't see your fingers, and listen to the strange knocking sound on the door.
Could it be that someone is knocking on the door? some intelligent monster, a guard mage who hasn't had time to evacuate, or is it that the guards from the Chiga Mountains have arrived?
Or is it a soul that died in the mouth of a monster?
Thinking of the last possibility, even Donner, who usually doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, couldn't help but sweat on his back.
After a moment of silence, the sound of the pounding on the stone door sounded again, four times in all, very soft, but enough for Donner to hear clearly.
By the time he heard the characteristic rhythm of the sound, Donner felt a little hairy on his scalp. He knew who it was, and the same rhythm was when the woman's fingers were tapping lightly on the table.
The moment he recognized the voice, he knew he was probably fooled again.
At that moment, I saw him light the fireball, walk quickly to the sound transmission circle on the side of the stone room, and carefully wipe off the two inconspicuous elements in the corner of the sound transmission circle with a dagger.
As soon as he finished all this, a voice sounded outside the door: "If you don't open it again, I'll slam the door......"
Donner knew she had done it, and quickly ran to the door to activate the mechanism.
With a click, the stone door opened, and in the dim starlight, a slender white figure stood in front of the door, it was Lisa.
"It's so fast, I almost can't catch up. As she spoke, she stepped into the stone chamber, and Donner glanced out to make sure that there was no one but her, and then closed the stone door.
"Haven't you found the magic lamp?" Lisa asked with a smile in the darkness.
Donner didn't speak, his footsteps shifted slightly, away from where he had just stood, and then swooped down towards the spot where Lisa had just spoken, the dagger arcing sharply in the air, but nothing hit.
"Kill me, can you do it alone?" Lisa's voice came from the other corner.
"There's no rescue team at all, isn't it?" Donner moved his position as soon as he gained his footing, so as not to give Lisa a chance to sneak up.
Lisa's giggles rang out from another place, this time farther away from Donner.
"What the hell are you going to do?" asked Donner.
"Let me tell you, that place can't hold out at all after the beast tide ends, and if you can't run away within three months, it's a dead end. The rescue team or something, it's just a front to force out your true strength. You can't get out on one person, so I need a helper. Lisa replied.
Donner was silent for a moment, what Lisa said was not unreasonable, it was almost impossible for a single person to survive the dangerous beast tide. If nothing else, the problem of rest cannot be solved. Once you enter the Demon Beast Mountain, there is no such stone chamber to hide.
"Don't Shario know your plans?" asked Donner.
"He?, he thought I had actually found the command office......" Lisa laughed.
ā...... This is the command office. Donner said.
"Don't pretend, you have enough time to destroy the sound transmission circle. Lisa said, "And I don't like to be rescued." ā
"And what about those people? Just let them die?" asked Donner.
With a snap, the stone chamber suddenly lit up, and Lisa was standing on the side of the sand table map, with a magic lamp on in her hand.
I saw her glance at Donner with disdain, and said, "Don't pretend to be merciful to me, as long as you want, you can contact the Earth Sacred Courtyard through this sound transmission circle now, the question is, will you do this?"
Donner fell silent, and on the scales in front of him were the white-robed Sario and Michelle Brown on one side, and Wesley, Una, and Layla on the other. There is no suspense for him about how to choose.
"How did you find me?" he said, dodging the question.
"It's very simple, those two little ones told me that you are heading east, you are not familiar with this area, and you will not leave to guard the Great Wall easily. Lisa shrugged her shoulders easily.
Donner nodded, her guess correct.
"Let's be clear, I know, you don't want to see me, and you don't want to see any rescue team. The sound transmission array in front of you will definitely not work, and it is impossible for you to fix it. So, we can act together first. When you get to a safe place, you can find a way to escape, and I'll find a way to keep you, and when the time comes, how about you rely on your skills?" Lisa said.
Donner thought for a moment, and it seemed that there was no other way but to agree with the other party.
"Yes. He replied calmly.
"Very well, reason is the basis of our cooperation," Lisa smiled and nodded, "Say, where are you going?"
"St. Petersburg. ā
"St. Petersburg?" Lisa smirked contemptuously, as if she had heard a lame joke, "Are you crazy? There is a miracle circle, and no one will be able to enter St. Petersburg until the beast tide is completely over." ā
"It's my own business, we can separate in the Plain of Miracles, you go to the Holy Courtyard of the Earth, I go to St. Petersburg. Donner replied.
"Hmm...... Yes," Lisa frowned slightly, and after a moment of silence, she smiled and said, "But I guess your destination is not St. Petersburg......
Donner ignored her.
"By the way, what's going on with that wall collapse?" Lisa asked again, "It looks like a very powerful fire magic, not like a demonic beast." ā
"You have a secret, don't you?" asked Donner.
"Okay......" Lisa spread her hands, "we all have secrets, and that's fair, at least for now." ā
Donner knew what she was talking about, and once out of danger, the brief cooperation between them would end, and then there would be no fairness.
"Now that you've made it clear, let's take a look at the map first. Lisa said as she walked over to the sand table.
In addition to covering the entire defense area of the Earth Sacred Courtyard Guards, this sand table also has arrows from the Earth Sacred Courtyard and the Miracle Plains at the edge, but there is no indication of how long it will take to get there from the edge of the map.
"I'm a bit of a bargain, it's a bit of a detour to the Plains of Miracles......" Lisa said.
"You can also act on your own. Donner said dismissively.
"Don't do it," Lisa pouted, "If you can do it alone, will you endure until the last moment before I force you out under the guise of a rescue team?"
Donner was speechless, his plans were almost all calculated by this woman.
Not...... Except for the staff, which looked like child's play.
But until now, Donner hadn't tried the staff, and he didn't know if it would work.
