Chapter 278: Song of Soul Suppression
As soon as Ryan heard the scout's report, he immediately said sorry to Bacon, and then hurriedly met the scout, and began to carefully inquire about what Serres found at the bottom of the lake.
According to the scout, the palace at the bottom of the lake was quite dilapidated on the outside, with cracked walls completely covered in moss, and it looked like it had sunk to the bottom of the lake for at least a hundred years. That was not all, but Faras was surprised to find that the palace was protected by some powerful magic, for there was no lake in its cracked gate.
At a very close distance, Seres gently aimed an arrow at the crack in the gate, in front of the strong resistance under the water, such a shot was of course no threat, but the feather arrow could actually pass through the gate and land inside the palace, which means that the palace should be able to enter and exit, and the magic barrier is just shielding the lake outside.
In order to seek stability, Faras and the others naturally did not rush into the expedition, but chose to return to the shore, and then immediately sent scouts to report to Ryan, and Ryan was also very surprised after learning all the news, he quickly explained the matter to Adra, and then hurried to the lake with the scout who reported the news.
When he ran to the edge of the lake, he saw Faras and the others sitting around a campfire, whispering about what had just happened, and when he saw Ryan coming, Seres immediately raised his hand at Ryan, revealing a longbow in his hand.
"That's what it is...... Song of the Soul Suppressor, right?" Ryan could see at a glance the difference in the longbow in Serres's hand, its appearance was very inconspicuous, but the bow was full of patterns, it was obvious that this was a kind of elven secret spell, and Ryan's knowledge of this was only limited to the part he had learned from Shaina's clothes, so he could only barely recognize that these spells should have an acceleration effect.
"This is our elven tribute. Seres gently stroked the longbow in his hand, and then said to Ryan, "This weapon was used to fight the Evil Demon Lord by our Moon Sacrifice Lord Lunaris, and later this powerful magic weapon was enshrined in the Temple of the Moon God. It was stolen before, but thankfully I finally got it back today. ”
"yes, it's been almost five years, right?" Shaina said with emotion.
"Thank you, Ryan. Serres slapped Ryan on the shoulder a few times, and then said emotionally: "Without you, and the help of your friends, I wouldn't know how to deal with that guy, but fortunately I met you." Oh, by the way, I know you're a big fan of crafting magic items, so take them and see them, if I return them to the Moon Temple, you'll probably not see it. ”
Ryan laughed and took the weapon from Serres' hand. Maybe the previous owner of this soul song was a female elf, and the size of the whole longbow was not particularly large, and the style was similar to that of an ordinary longbow, except for the dense runes on the back of the bow.
Ryan first looked at the back of the bow, gestured a little, and felt that he should have no problem using it, but what he never expected was that when he was about to pull the bowstring, he suddenly found that this longbow had only one bow back at all, and there was no bowstring at all.
"Ah, this ......" Ryan was a little caught off guard by this discovery, and Serres and they all laughed when they saw Ryan's deflated expression, and Faras pursed her lips and said to Ryan: "Even you are making a fool of yourself, people are the same as you when they take it for the first time." ”
Ryan's face flushed with embarrassment, and he said in an apologetic tone, "It's the first time I've seen it, and I won't make this mistake next time." Well, the patterns on this bow are so dense that they seem to have an acceleration effect, but what are the lines next to it do? I've never seen them before......"
"Hey, can you make out the demonic runes on this?" Seres asked in surprise, "This is something that even Shaina doesn't know." ”
"Demonic runes, what is that?" Ryan had heard of the name for the first time, so he asked Ceress for advice, "It must be the secret method of the elves, right?
"Yes, this rune is indeed the secret inheritance of our elven clan, but since you helped us recover this demi-artifact, then you are a permanent friend of our elven clan, and I believe that the queen and the great elder of Demon Moon City will be happy to receive you!" said Seres with a smile.
"Ah, Serres, you...... Are you going to invite humans to Moyue City as guests?" Shayna was taken aback by Serres' vague semantics, she had been hesitating for a long time about her and Elendor's affairs, but she didn't expect that now Celes would say the best solution.
"What's not to do?" Seres and Ryan had stayed for a long time, and had learned a lot of small movements from Ryan, and he shrugged his shoulders and said to Shaina, "The elves are far away from humans, not hostile to humans, but for their own peaceful life not to be disturbed. However, humans will always be our friends, so what's the problem with us inviting a few guests who have helped elves to our house?"
"Ah, that's... Then ......" Shaina said this, her face flushed, and she couldn't continue to ask anyway, Seres looked at Shaina with a smile, and said directly for her: "Ryan, Faras, and Elendor, these are all our friends, of course we have to invite them together." And you, well, it seems that our elves are not forbidden to marry with other races, right? But if you want to marry a beautiful woman of our elves, you must first pass the test of the clan!"
"Ahh
"Well, let's talk about this weapon first. Serres pointed to the Song of Soul Suppression in Ryan's hand and said, "Actually, I don't know what the demonic runes on it are for, but this longbow has only two characteristics, one is rapid fire, which allows the user to fire at an extremely fast frequency, and the second is to restore calm." ”
"Calm back?" Ryan and Faras asked in unison, a strange word for them.
"Yes!" Celes smiled and took the song from Ryan's hand, and then gently pulled at the position where there should be a bowstring against a large tree by the lake, Ryan clearly saw that Laures's hand was only pulling the air, but from the front groove of this longbow, three white lights were sprayed in a row.
Under Ryan's attention, these three white lights hit the trunk of a big tree dozens of meters away at almost the same time, and when Ryan and they walked over, they found that the part of the big tree that was hit was only three shallow spots, and it was obvious that the three arrows of Serres were completely lethal.
Ryan thought that Seres was just demonstrating to himself, so he didn't cause the penetration effect that ordinary feather arrows could do, but Seres pointed to the part he caused and said to Ryan: "This is the effect of the Song of Soul Suppression, I have actually done my best in terms of power just now, if it is a life-and-death fight, all I can do is to speed up the frequency of shooting." ”
"Ahh
"It's called a return to calm. Seres said with a normal face: "It is completely lethal to ordinary people, on the contrary, it has extremely powerful lethality for those evil guys, such as undead, or alien creatures that do not belong to this plane. It is documented in the Luna Temple that Lord Lunaris once pierced through the armor of evil magic with an arrow, something that Fernando's Holy Avenger and Reynolds' Blood Cry could not do. ”
"I see!" Ryan suddenly realized, apparently the elf who made this demigod was a very peace-loving person, so it gave this weapon this strange characteristic, it can only exert its great power when fighting evil, but it will not fall into endless killing, no wonder its name is "Song of the Soul".
"Okay, let's not talk about it, let's talk about the palace down there. Serres revealed the biggest secret of the Song of the Soul Suppression, and then pointed to the deep lake and said, "Shall we go and see the palace below?" A hydra is guarding here, and the guy who stole this demigod is running here, is he really panicking?"
"Well, if you don't object, we might as well go down and have a look. "Naturally, Ryan will not let go of such a good opportunity to take risks, after all, the entire team now has powerful magicians, druids, and elven wind marksmen, I'm afraid his teacher Draeny didn't have such a gorgeous lineup when he took the adventure.
"Of course, it's been a long time since we've had an adventure together, so let's just think it's a wedding trip. Faras said with a smile.
"Well, it's a strange trip, and it's the first time I've heard of a newlywed couple going on a honeymoon trip to a place where there is probably great danger. Sophie, who had been silent on the sidelines, finally spoke: "But it's also the first time I've heard that both husband and wife are powerful magisters, and this should be the first time in the history of mankind, right?
