Chapter 217: When the undercurrent is surging
readx;
On the third day after Regel and Matthew had spoken, the last month of the rainy season was now halfway over. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The rain was still falling day and night, and on a watchtower in the White House, where Regel and Marco were nesting, using their monoculars to observe the Wizard's Tower in the distance through the rain curtain, one of the few places where they could spy on Ryze's room.
In front of the two stood two werewolves, the monsters in charge of the White House vigil, their bodies in leather armor just enough to block Matthew and Regger behind them. For these humans, who wore black leather armor and were called SS, the werewolves knew that their orders were the second to be obeyed. Although the werewolves don't know what they're doing on this somewhat cold arrow tower, none of this is needed for their relationship, they just need to do their job.
"It's a really good thing to use. Matthew looked at Ruiz who was reading a book in front of the table in the distance with a telescope and said with a smile: "It's almost the same as after drinking the Eagle Eye potion, and the most important thing is that there is no time limit, as long as I am not tired, I can watch as long as I want, and I don't need to still suffer from the strange smell of potions." ”
"That's what the dwarves used to call the power of technology. Regal, who had just been replaced, roasted the fire by the fire in the arrow tower and said: "You don't need any magical talent to be able to use it, so that ordinary people can do things that only a mage can do, and if they can be developed, it will definitely be a good thing, just like the ape boat, no one would have thought that they could actually fly." Is Ruiz still reading there, and is there any strange behavior?"
"He's honest. Matthew heard Regel's words and said, "He's been lying there for nearly an hour, and he hasn't done anything other than flipping books, mage is really a bad profession, if I have to read so many books every day, I guess I'll go crazy immediately." Right. Have the mercenaries in the city been dealt with?"
Thunder Bluff is the stronghold of the SS, and if there is any big problem there, only here can it be, this is the core of power in the entire New Elamite Federation, and if something goes wrong here, it will affect a large area. Monitoring the security of Thunder Bluff was a top priority for the SS, and any special disturbance would attract their attention. Not to mention the fact that a large group of mercenaries came here with weapons.
"Of course, I've already informed the Monster Legion and ordered them all to leave the city. Regel rubbed his hands and said: "In the forest outside the city is our monster army, and they have always handled the affairs in the field of Thunder Cliff, and Thunder Cliff does not need any mercenaries to deal with things at all, I don't know why they suddenly came here." But then I know it's definitely not going to be a good thing. ”
"yes, because of those mercenaries who came to Thunder Cliff for some reason, we have to come here to spy on him personally, and I haven't even really eaten dinner. Matthew complained a little unhappily, "How the hell did he get those mercenaries to come to the city? We have monitored all his movements, and he has hardly written to anyone, the only one in the last few days has been to a Carthaginian mage." I want to buy some magic materials that are hard to find. ”
Legel smiled and poked the fire in the arrow tower, came to Matthew's side, took the telescope from his hand, hid behind the two tall werewolves and continued to watch, and said: "Don't complain, this is the work you need to do, otherwise how can you get the salary you get every month? There are a few purple potatoes under the fire, and the time is almost ripe, if you are hungry, you can go and eat some." ”
"Hey, hey. Matthew moved to the fire, rummaging around the fire impatiently. Flipping through the burned-out gray dust, revealing a few large purple potatoes with a strong fragrance, he said, "Anyway, I haven't eaten for a long time, and the last time it seemed like we came back from Parliament City......, right?" It's so hot!You watch first, and I'll change you when I'm full!...... Maybe I'll eat it all. ”
However, at this time, the two of them did not know that in the darkened corridor of the castle, an old man with a white beard was walking slowly among them. A crystal ball in his hand that glowed faintly illuminated his wrinkled face, the old man roaming the White House was none other than Ryze, apparently the person reading in the room was not necessarily him, but some kind of magic used to blind the watchers.
Ruiz walks through the dark hallways. He didn't make a single sound, and his shoes had a weight-changing feather drop technique, so that even if he jumped straight from the stairs, he would only fall lightly without making any sound. These were the enchanted shoes he had prepared a long time ago, and with them he had been walking around the castle for days. It did not attract the attention of anyone inside the hallway door.
Even if the castle is well defended, the easier it is to destroy it from the inside, and Ruiz knows the distribution of all the monsters in the White House and the patrol routes of most of the guards. The rest of the sentinels, who he didn't know, were able to rely on the perception crystal in his hand to know that Ruiz knew from a great distance that there were living creatures hidden there.
Following the path he had walked dozens of times, Ruiz came to an iron gate in the castle, and the two SS guards at the door stood there as if they didn't see him, still standing straight and looking around. After they saw Ruiz, a circle of blue light automatically appeared around the pupil in their eyes. They don't know when they've fallen under Ryze's magic, and they've been ignoring the old man who has been in and out of the top secret room for days.
"This is the antidote for you. Ruiz walked into the room and took out a bottle of potion from his bosom, and said to the triplets who had been imprisoned in this room for a long time, "It took some time because the poison in your body is very strange. In two days, when it's time to do it, you can prepare in those two days. ”
One of the three identical girls took a sip of the potion placed on the table, and after waiting for a moment, the other two girls came and drank the potion. The March Divine Seal, which had been dimmed, shone again at this time, and the three mouths said in unison as always: "There are many possibilities for your plan to fail, if it fails, you will die, are you sure you want to betray that minotaur?" Tell us your real name, we can let you avoid the possibility of failure." ”
"A mage can't give a name to anyone. Ruiz shook his head and stroked his white beard and said, "This is the first lesson I have learned since I became a mage, even if you are warriors of the gods, and I don't want others to predict my fate. Not to mention, I have been planning this plan for more than two months, and I have torn my own soul in two, so that even the gods will not know my thoughts and actions, so you can rest assured that the plan is kept secret. ”
Tearing one's soul apart is not a special method, almost no mage will use it, and the lichs who are no longer human use this method to leave a way out for themselves, they will tear their souls into several points, and then seal them in special life boxes. If their bodies are wiped out, then they can be resurrected with the help of these life boxes, and without destroying all of a lich's life boxes, then you will never be able to actually kill him.
At this time, in Ruize's room is the other half of the soul, the body temporarily made by using magical power, although it can smell a strange smell when it is close, but Ruiz knows which monsters' minions will not show up near him, and he uses this method to act in secret.
"We'll start cooperating with you as you act. Looking at the old man in front of him for a moment, the triplets nodded and said, "But we still have to remind you that the blonde girl with a double ponytail is extremely powerful, and if she is alarmed, no matter who she is, she will not be able to escape here." The evil Monster Goddess has sealed off the whole of Elam, the Chosen Warriors cannot enter it, and the mortals we sent to deliver the message will be lost, and we will barely escape the fate branch of Elam. ”
"She was an ancient creature resurrected from the ruins, and now I know how powerful she really is. Rhyz nodded and said, "Although I have also brought in some mercenaries from the Salts, they are just a fog that I use to disrupt my vision, and I don't know what I have planned. Now our only task is to send this important news out, and now that the evil goddess has not been completely resurrected to gain its original power, we must destroy it now!"
In Thunder Bluff, Ryze's betrayal has become settled, and he has lifted the sealing poison from the three Chosen Warriors, allowing them to lose their powers. Obviously, Ruiz still has a lot of followers, and these are likely to cause a lot of damage to the entire Thunder Cliff, and the SS responsible for defending Thunder Cliff in the dark is completely kept in the dark, and the undercurrent has slowly begun to surge.
And the Minotaur, who is the owner of Thunder Cliff, doesn't know what happened to Thunder Cliff at this time, and in fact, even if he knows what happened, he doesn't have the heart to care about this thing now. It's not that he can't get back from Hell to the Lord at this time, but that he's in a great crisis.
The blue shield formed by the power contained in the time ring enveloped the place where Mo Yan stood, freezing the time and space in this space. And on the outside of the space, a huge ball of light burning this flame was hovering there, cold sweat flowed down Mo Yan's head, he had just gotten up from the bed, looked at the ball of light covering a huge range above his head and said with a bitter face: "This ...... It seems that there is no solution. Don't...... Am I going to die here?"
