After Surdak entered the city of Vřimala with the Hylanza guards, he cooperated with the city defenders to carry out a battle to defend the city of Wřímara, as the reinforcements from all walks of life continued to enter the city of Wřímara, the Hellhound Legion outside the city did not continue to launch a large-scale siege war, but the battle outside the city gate continued every day, and a large number of hellhounds were cleared by the Knights.

The Hellhound Legion couldn't stop the iron cavalry of the Hellhounds Army, and the most elite Constructed Swordsmen of the Hellhounds Legion had begun to point their swords at the rear, allowing the Hellhound Army to appear in the hell passages of the Maca plane, and the Hell Legion higher-ups were also aware of this problem.

At the same time, the plan to strengthen the hell passage is also in full swing, once the reinforcement of the hell passage is completed, the main force of the hell legion enters the maca plane, and the combat effectiveness of the demon warriors is far beyond imagination, and now the Bena legion is far away from the Warsaw plane, and it is impossible to withdraw from the Warsaw plane in time, and the existing military strength of Warzhmara City cannot stop the demon army at all.

The focus of the battlefield has also shifted from the siege of the city of Warjmara to the destruction of the hell passage on the Maca plane, for which the Marquis of Luthor sent a large number of reconnaissance teams into the wilderness jungle.

In order to avoid exposing the Demon Gate prematurely, the upper echelons of the Hell Legion sent a large number of Hellhounds into the battlefield and sent succubius to carry out large-scale infiltration operations.

Leaning against the sand wall, the swordsman of Haynes said to Surdak: "This time the succubus has infiltrated the legion very widely, in addition to the various departments of the Bena army, it also includes some nobles and merchants in the city of Warzhmara, in addition to controlling the movement of the legion, they are also preparing to cause some disturbances and chaos within the legion, so as to support the advance of the army and buy time to strengthen the hell passage. ”

Outside, there was the sound of hellhounds running by, and everyone held their breath, and the hellhounds didn't notice that they were only separated by a wall.

The Haynes Swordsman paused and waited until all the hellhounds were gone before continuing, "I think even if this operation fails, one of us will have to leave here alive and bring the information out here." ”

After speaking, he gave Surdak a serious look.

Surdak nodded, and introduced to the Haynes swordsman, "She's Aphrodite, and to be honest you should be grateful to her, she was the one who brought us to the Colosseum prison, and I think she is worthy of trust." These are my men, members of the Heathland Security Squad outside the mountain pass, the support squadron of the Haylanza Guard Battalion. ”

He uttered a long list of names, and he didn't know how much the Haynes swordsman could remember, but it was enough to remember the Haylantha Guard Battalion.

"I know!" The smile on Haynes' face was a little intriguing, and then he explained, "I saw her when I was in the cage, and she was really peculiar, not as hostile to us as other succubi, but also curious about the human world. Baron Gilmore just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to get close to her to escape, but the fool didn't keep the secret, his plot was discovered by another succubus, and when the matter was revealed, the Aphrodite succubus lady was cut off and locked in a cage, but you didn't expect to save her. ”

Surdak didn't expect that this succubus lady who came to hell met a scumbag, was pitted with her wings off and almost died, not to mention, she actually persuaded their team to go to the prison to rescue them, and after the rescue was successful, they were kicked away by the Gilmore and sold twice.

No wonder she looks disheartened, she definitely can't go back to her home now, maybe going through these things can make her more mature.

Surdak said to Haines: "I didn't see it clearly at the execution ground at the time, and I thought she was a human who was about to be executed, only to find out that she was a succubus, but she seems to be different from other succubi. ”

Aphrodite smiled at Haynes, a somewhat reluctant smile.

After a short rest, Surdak stood up from the rubble and said to the group, "Let's go, we hope to find clues about the teleportation passage." ”

Instead of leading everyone out of the ruins, he asked Aphrodite to find the veins of the culvert, enter the culvert again, and sneak into the library quietly.

Haynes then found out that the Surdak team was not completely unprepared, these plans seemed to have been calculated a long time ago, there would definitely be people who were unwilling to participate in this mission, Surdak did not force the reason, and actually turned their departure into part of the plan, those knights and nobles and merchants would not know until they died, how many hellhounds they had led away for the Surdak team, even if someone was lucky enough to get out of here, they would not be willing to appear in front of the Surdak team, and they might be far away when they saw them.

"So you've already made a battle plan......," said the Haynes swordsman with a grim expression.

Holding the torch of holy light, Surdak followed behind Samira, and turned back to the swordsman of Haynes and said, "Of course, although we are willing to take risks, it does not mean that we have to die hard, I hope that under the protection of those knights, this group of nobles and merchants can go further." ”

The Haynes swordsman followed the group and climbed out of the vent.

Entering the library, he was also dumbfounded when he saw the high bookshelves and all kinds of books neatly arranged on the shelves, he didn't expect that there was such a place among the ruins, he raised his head and saw the moonstone on the ceiling as bright as stars, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva gently, moonstone, a non-renewable mining resource, is definitely not cheap in the Green Empire, who would have thought that in this library, the roof is actually embedded with moonstone.

He tilted his head and turned around in the middle of the room, feeling dizzy for a while, and quickly closed his eyes not to look at the moonstones, before he felt better, he said: "Almost all the ruins outside have turned into sand, how can this place be so well preserved, can these magical parchment books really keep them incorruptible for thousands of years?" ”

"Maybe there is a magic circle of this kind in the library to prevent books from decaying due to the passage of time." Surdak had thought about these questions before, and it was Celia who was hidden in the magic notes. Magician Cooper secretly told him of a possibility, and he continued, "Not only the books here, but also the shelves, tables, and chairs in the library, have not changed in any way with the passage of time. ”

"You're saying that the entire library is inscribed with that kind of magic pattern?" The Haynes swordsman took a breath of cold air.

Surdak didn't know so much, and the time was pressing, so he didn't continue to talk deeply.

Samira pushed open the carved door of the room, causing some slight movements, luring back the three patrolling hellhounds in the corridor, and with the cooperation of the knights, the hellhounds were easily killed silently.

Then the body of the hellhound was hidden in this room, and Surdak stood in the doorway, glanced at the empty corridor outside, shook his head at the team, and said, "Let's go, let's go meet the dark mage......

There is a soft-lit wall lamp every ten meters away in the corridor, and there are destined to be two brightly colored oil paintings between every two wall lamps, and the wall lamps on the opposite side of the corridor are just staggered, such an asymmetry just makes every oil painting in the corridor have a special light, in addition to drawing some sky battles and dragon slaying battles, there are also many depictions of the prosperous scenery of the Hex era, those ghost monkeys dressed like dogs stand on top of the giant airship, standing on the pedestal behind the giant magic cannon, Sit on the shoulders of the magic golem......

They steered metal giants hundreds of meters tall to fight dragons in the wilderness, and the sky was filled with giant magical airships.

Unexpectedly, the original Hex era was even more powerful than the heyday of the Grimm Empire, and the magic notes in Surdak's arms kept sending out some prompts for him to take some of these oil paintings away, and this kind of oil paintings from the Hex era have always been highly sought after at auctions in Bena Province, and the prices remain high.

Although Surdak was anxious to find the black magician, it did not affect him to take the oil paintings in the corridor, because knowing that Surdak had a magic waist bag with a large space, Andrew and Samira almost exclusively selected those large-sized oil paintings, and walked all the way, the oil paintings in the corridor on this side of the library were almost looted by two people.

The eyelids of the knights and the Haynes swordsmen twitched, but unfortunately they didn't have magic fanny packs and couldn't take these paintings with them.

But at the end of the corridor, on the left and right sides of the arched gate, there is a round high platform, where the reliefs of two goblin warriors stand, although they are stone carvings, but the weapons in their hands are emitting a cold light, although they are covered with dust, but they can still see the texture of the metal on them, and these two goblin warriors carry round shields in addition to two scimitars.

Several knights were overjoyed to see the weapons, and after making sure that there was no danger in the corridor, they removed the weapons and shields from the hands of the two statues, but the weapons that appeared to be long and heavy in the hands of the goblins were like a long dagger in the hands of the knights, and the two shields did not have to be much larger than the armguards.

Follow Celia. At the prompting of the Cooper magician, Surdak walked at the back and untied the musket from the statue's waist and put it in the magic belt bag.

The library was far larger than Surdak had imagined, it felt like a football field, and the battle team dealt with several waves of Hellhounds patrols along the way, and finally led by Aphrodite to a wide corridor, where the group hid around the corner, except for the two giant Hellhounds in the doorway.

According to Aphrodite, the Dark Mage was surrounded by two succubi, in addition to a team of giant hellhound guards. Those two succubi were the two strongest of the succubi who entered the maca plane, and they didn't see the succubus.

The team rushed up directly, Surdak and Andrew rushed to the front, and now they are familiar with the fighting methods of these giant hellhounds, although they are as strong as bison, but they are suppressed by the power of the laws of the maca plane, and their strength is greatly limited, they are not staring at the aura of power at all, there are opponents of Surdak and Andrew who have the protection of the 'blessed body'.

Surdak wanted to fight quickly, desperately at the risk of injury, at the moment when the giant hellhound pounced, he used the holy light torch in his hand to smash the giant hellhound's forehead, but he didn't expect that under the holy flame, the hellhound actually let out a mournful roar, and the holy light torch with full strength instantly smashed the giant hellhound to skull.

The group rushed directly into the library room, but the room was empty, the books on the shelves in the room were turned over in a mess, and the basically thick magician was spread out on a reading table, with a magnifying glass and magic notes next to it, it looked like someone was translating this book word by word, and those magic notes were only half written, and they were hurriedly dropped.

A set of magical laboratory vessels is also placed on a laboratory table, next to which is a black . The magic cauldron, the flame of the fire-type magic scroll under the cauldron has not been extinguished, and the green liquid inside keeps bubbling with disgusting bubbles.

On this test bench there is a very delicate magic model, the model has a very delicate six-pointed star-shaped base, which is engraved with very complicated magic ornaments, and the four corners are actually very extravagantly inlaid with six magic crystals, and there is a ring-shaped model hanging on the base, this metal ring is oval, and the golden surface is covered with runes representing the mysteries of magic.

A few faint lines of magic connected the palm-sized ring from the chassis, and black mist kept surging in the ring.

"What is this?" Surdak secretly whispered to Celia in his arms. Cooper asked.

Celia. Cooper was silent for a moment before saying, "This is a model for the Devil's Gate......"

Surdak didn't think much about it, and said, "He's really here to study how to strengthen the hell passage, can I take this model with me?" ”

“…… Yes, but you have to close the circle first and remove the six magic crystals on the pedestal, but be careful when taking the magic crystals, once there is a magic abnormality, there may be a spatial rift. "Celia. Cooper said to Surdak in a subtle voice that only the two of them could hear, and at the end came a sigh: "...... He eventually got ahead of me. ”

Surdak was so focused on dismantling the model of the Demon Gate that he didn't hear Celia clearly. What exactly Cooper was talking about in his last sentence.

There was no one in the room, and the two knights at the door dragged the corpses of the two giant hellhounds into the room.

"What are we going to do?" Andrew searched around the room with several knights and found no dark rooms.

Surdak looked at the corpses of the two giant hellhounds lying on the ground, and thought to himself that even if they were ambushed in the room, the hellhounds at the door had been killed, and the black mage would definitely find something unusual here.

Now that he had found the model of the Gate of Hell, as well as a few books and magic notes in local fine characters on the table, he could only hope to find some clues on the magic notes, so he didn't hesitate and said decisively: "Let's go, let's withdraw from here!" ”
