Chapter 5 The Price is complete
Gregory leaps from the top of a high cliff.
Its body stretched out in the oncoming wind, and the camouflage crushed ashstone splattered in all directions, revealing the black and blue bones underneath, and two pairs of thin wings spread out.
Gregory's body sank slightly, and he was lifted by the blowing gale, and then rushed out like an arrow like an arrow like a fish swimming through the huge waves!
It had only rushed out a few hundred meters when suddenly a flower appeared in front of it, and a black shadow appeared in the distance in front of it.
It turned out to be Fengyue, and she flew back at a faster speed than when she faced the king!
Gregory was shocked, and before it could howl twice, Feng Yue grabbed the neck bone and carried it to the top of the cliff where it had been hiding before.
Fengyue's momentum is too strong.
The wind swept in his face like a sharp blade, passing through the cracks in Gregory's bones, emitting a strange scream. The bones of the bone dragon were trembling and moaning, and if they held on a little longer, it would really fall apart.
It's good that you don't use it for too long.
Holding the bone dragon in his left hand and the death scythe in his right hand, Fengyue drew an angular trajectory in the air, and hid behind the cliff like lightning.
The demon lotus suddenly flew up from the bone dragon's body, turned into dozens of flying armor leaves, and returned to Fengyue's body.
Before it had a chance to ask what was going on, it saw a sudden fluctuation in the space in front of Feng Yue, and a strange wind blew on the top of the cliff, and dozens of bones flew off the ground. In the blink of an eye, a cloud of purple mist suddenly appeared, and the flying broken bones converged towards the purple mist, quickly forming the prototype of a corpse witch.
The other world has changed a lot, and Rogge is still a little uncomfortable with the existence of the corpse witch, and it took several adjustments to the flames in his eye sockets before he could see the world around him clearly.
Fengyue is still wearing black armor, but the armor has become dull, and the streamers flying outside are incomplete. The wings exposed by the wind and moon have not returned, and the crystal of divine light is faintly revealed, and the white feathers are dry and fluffy.
Rogge was surprised to find that the golden soul fire of Fengyue was very faint and kept swaying, as if it might be extinguished at any time.
He looked at Fengyue's wings in a daze.
As soon as Fengyue saw that Rogge was staring at his wings, he brushed the ground and put his wings into the demon lotus.
It all happened between lightning and fire, and the clever bone dragon chose to crouch in the distance, pretending to observe the movements of the abyssal dragon. The matter between the master and the master's master, it was determined to speculate only a few times in its own mind, and it was determined not to ask any more questions. Anyway, now that the soul contract has been dissolved, what it thinks, Fengyue won't know.
Rogge's gaze fell on Fengyue's chest, and the droplet-shaped badge was dancing with his soul flame. He was a little strange, obviously Fengyue had already gone through countless tragic battles before he became so weak. But why don't you feel it at all?
But no matter what, he had to be glad that he had come to the right place this time.
Rogge stretched out his hand and pressed it on Fengyue's chest, his movements were a little clumsy, and he still didn't feel comfortable seeing that he was sticking out his hand bones.
A trace of silver light shone out from Rogge's corpse witch's body, and the badge on Fengyue's chest suddenly lit up. It wriggled like life, and finally turned into a silver vortex.
Rogge's spiritual power was surging, and wave after wave poured into the silver vortex.
The demon lotus is like a grass that is about to wither and encounters a rare rain, desperately absorbing the continuous surging spiritual power, and later, the speed at which Rogge inputs the spiritual power can no longer meet its requirements, and a strong suction force attracts all of Rogge's spiritual power.
The old black streamers withered and fell, and a dozen new streamers, full of life and vitality, quietly stretched out from between the nail leaves, dancing proudly in the air.
The suction power of the demon lotus is getting bigger and bigger, and most of Rogge's huge spiritual power has been sucked away. But he was relieved in his heart, and fortunately remembered that when he had a soul contract with Fengyue, he had been drained of his spiritual power by her. Now seeing that Fengyue was extremely weak, he tried indiscriminately, and actually succeeded.
However, Fengyue's suction power is too great. When she was a little skeleton, she sucked Rogge's spiritual power to the fullest, and now that she has evolved to this point, Rogge is really worried that his poor mental power may not be able to eat Fengyue.
Rogge's spiritual power was originally like a lake with no edge in sight, but now in the blink of an eye, only the three or five beaches at the bottom of the lake were left.
The armor leaf on the back of the demon lotus suddenly opened, and a pair of wings stretched out. The wings regained their former beauty, a faint golden glow flowing in their whiteness.
With a snap, a bone fell from Rog's body, and the last bit of his spiritual power was almost drained, and he was almost unable to maintain the existence of the corpse witch.
Demon Lotus's devil mask has an incomparably beautiful cherry lips. Fengyue opened her mouth and exhaled a faint white mist, and then the mask's eyes opened, and the eyes shone with a cold, bright silver glow.
Rogge looked at Fengyue's proudly stretched wings, and his heart moved, relieved and a little inexplicably sad.
Seeing that Rogge was staring at his wings again, he brushed the ground, and Fengyue, who had just recovered, immediately withdrew his wings into the demon lotus.
The silver vortex on her chest suddenly grew much larger, and the incomparably powerful suction instantly squeezed the last trace of Rogge's spiritual power clean.
Rogge couldn't resist, the spirit body could no longer stay in the other world, and the corpse witch's body collapsed with a bang.
"Hmph!" Feng Yue snorted coldly.
She turned her head suddenly, her gaze falling on the bone dragon.
Gregory immediately turned his head and observed the Abyssal Dragon's movements intently, but a trembling tail tip quietly revealed its thoughts.
The demon lotus bloomed again, and dozens of nail leaves floated around Fengyue. Under the shadow of the beating halo of the demon lotus, Fengyue is even more beautiful like a mist and a fantasy.
She looked into the distance at the abyssal dragon who was still ignorant and unconscious, and said lightly: "Gregory, let's go!"
Fengyue's figure flashed, but it still didn't move. She looked back and saw that Gregory had bitten into one of the demon lotus's nail leaves.
The bone dragon opened its mouth and spat out a ball of light that shone with blue-black light, and the ball of light slowly floated in front of Fengyue.
"Master, Soul Contract ......" The bone dragon looked up at Fengyue expectantly, and its tail swept around flatteringly.
An extremely rare smile flashed across the corner of Fengyue's mouth, and she reached out to take the ball of light, turned around and flew down the cliff.
The bone dragon jumped up and howled, "Master, you are so ......."
With such a howl, Fengyue's figure was already far away. The bone dragon didn't care about finishing the sycophant, his figure flashed, and he hurriedly chased down.
Rector, the capital of the Snow Falcon Country, is filled with an unprecedented bloody atmosphere.
Grand Duke Snow Falcon was captured when Cloud City fell, and now Rector Grand Duke's Mansion has a new owner.
The inhabitants and nobles of Rector alike hated and feared the new master. Regime change and murder are the most commonly used means. The people who killed them were often the nobles with the deepest roots. This time, the unlucky ones are the Anas family, who have been in power in the country of snow falcons for many years!
A few hundred lives is not a small number. The gore made the low-class poor, who had no interest in politics, know that Lector had changed the dynasty.
Outside the east gate of Lector, on both sides of the road leading to Luoyun City, there were more than 300 wooden stakes, and a corpse hung on each stake. These people were all hanged, and now it is the freezing and snowy season, and all the corpses are frozen [***], in the cold wind. The sight was horrible, but not too bloody.
When the soldiers of the Duchy of Arei hung these crying men from their stakes, most of them were still richly dressed. But by the early morning of the next day, almost all of these corpses were **, and there were almost no underwear left.
The country of the snow falcon is a very poor country, and most of the poor people in Lector are only barely able to make ends meet, and the clothes on these corpses are also a lot of wealth for them. What's more, the Duke of Annas has no virtue left, how can these poor people who are struggling on the line of life and death consider the decency of the corpses in his family?
This is also something that Rogge did not expect. However, he didn't know that there would be such a dramatic side now, and he had been in a coma in the Grand Duke's Mansion for a day and a night.
It didn't take much effort for Rogge to conquer the land of the Snow Falcon, which was empty.
The capital of the duchy, Lector, surrendered without a fight, and only the private soldiers of the Duke of Annas put up some small resistance, but those who resisted were quickly killed by the demonic dark side of the moon. More than 100 tormented elves have been rescued from the Duke of Anas's mansion, but in the past few weeks, more than 80 elves have been bought by slave traders and shipped to other northern countries.
Immediately after entering Rector, Rogge occupied the Grand Duke's Mansion. After giving the order to execute all the Duke of Anas's relatives, he only ordered the Wind Butterfly and the Dark Side of the Moon to protect himself, and then lay down on his bed and fell asleep.
Wind Butterfly was already surprised by Rogge's unfathomable actions, but this time she was still taken aback. After falling asleep, Rog could only breathe and beat peacefully, but he didn't feel any life at all, like an empty shell with only physiological functions.
Rogge slept for a day and a night, and Wind Butterfly also sat by the bed sleeplessly for a day and a night.
Her mind was in turmoil.
In the shadows of the corner of the house, Raphael was staring at Windbutterfly, and his keen instincts made him sense the monstrous hatred of Rogge in Butterfly's heart, so he remained in a state of extreme tension all the time. The master had told him that as long as the elven woman did not attack him, she was not allowed to do it herself. Even if you do it yourself, you can't kill her.
Raphael's dark instincts made it very incomprehensible to this command, but no order from its master could be disobeyed. It is like a newborn baby, desperately learning everything it can learn, but absolutely obeying its master's commands has been convinced since the day it was born.
It was the supreme command imprinted directly into the depths of its soul.
The wind butterfly has not rested for too long, and it has been crumbling.
Adjani's letter, the flame of her turning into a golden meteor, Raphael behind her, and Rumsfeld's voice and smile appeared again and again in Wind Butterfly's heart.
She's going crazy again.
Wind Butterfly's palms were covered with sweat, and Rogge lay quietly on his face, completely defenseless, not even conscious. With a single stroke of her long tail fingernail, she could easily cut off Rogge's throat. She had absolute confidence that Raphael behind her could not stop herself from killing Rogge. Even if he died at the hands of Raphael and was able to die at the hands of his lover, Wind Butterfly felt that it was a relief.
It's just that Wind Butterfly keeps asking herself, can she kill Rogge?
The Grim Reaper's earth-shattering sword slashed Rogge's throat. At that time, Wind Butterfly could see very clearly that the death qi on that sword could make Rogge's ** completely die in an instant. Rogge was indeed dead, but only for a short month.
He was miraculously resurrected! Was he really favored by God?
Perhaps, he should be cut into several pieces, but then Wind Butterfly doubts that it will succeed.
Her hands trembled, gently caressing Rogge's neck and chest, but she never dared to insert her ten fingers down.
"Adjani ......" Wind Butterfly silently read the name of her childhood friend, what would happen to her if she killed Rogge herself?
Wind Butterfly felt that she really couldn't do it, so her nervous mind finally collapsed and cried bitterly.
A thick palm gently patted Feng Die's slender hands, and Rogge said lightly: "What are you doing?"
The sudden fright was no small fright, and the wind butterfly screamed, jumped backwards, and slammed into the wall.
Rog had already sat up from the bed, his face was frighteningly pale, he looked completely weak, and the feeling of oppression that had been faintly revealed in the past had disappeared.
Rogge looked at the beautiful little face of the wind butterfly, and saw that she was restless and at a loss, and finally had to twist her face to the side, not daring to meet Rogge's gaze.
Rogge smiled a little smugly and said, "Wind Butterfly, come and help me up, I don't have the strength." ”
After briefly listening to the reports of his generals, Rogge left a thousand soldiers to garrison the land of the Snowfalcon, and announced that the local nobles in the cities other than Lector would keep their original titles and properties as long as they swore allegiance to the Principality of Are, and even the immediate family members of the Archduke of the Snow Falcon were only expelled from the country, and they were allowed to bring a lot of family wealth.
Rogge expected that this move would calm the hearts of most of the nobles, so he led a large army and hurried back to the Duchy of Are.
In this battle against the three principalities of the Highlands, Rogge won a complete victory. The warriors of the Principality of Arei lost less than a thousand people, and the elven warriors lost more than a hundred, so they destroyed the Three Highlands and occupied the country of the Snow Falcon. More importantly, Rogge finally won a foothold for the elves in human society. And how long this foothold can exist is closely related to whether Rogge can stay at the peak of power. Only in this way will the fat man not be afraid of the old fox of Hughes crossing the river and demolishing the bridge.
After only half a day of marching with the retreating army, Rogge could no longer stand the slow pace, he was really anxious. So as soon as he regained a little spiritual power, he immediately broke away from the brigade with the dark side of the moon and rushed directly in the direction of the Oracle City.
After two days of galloping, Rogge finally saw the beautiful City of Oracles.
When you step into the gates of the Oracle City, you will be stepping from winter to spring.
Even if the fat man's heart is heavy, he still feels a sense of relief in his heart when he steps into the flowery oracle city from the barren land of ice and snow. It's just that the few yellow leaves falling from the head are a little strange.
Rogge grabbed it casually and copied a huge fallen leaf in his hand. In an instant, the faces of Rog, Wind Butterfly, and the Dark Side of the Moon warriors all changed.
This is the fallen leaves of the Elven Ancient Tree!
Rog looked up at the towering Elven Ancient Tree. The huge canopy of the three ancient trees is connected to each other, like a thick cloud, which used to be green, but now it is half green and half yellow, and occasionally the wind blows, and a few yellow leaves will fall from the top of the tree.
"Has the magic of the Elven Ancient Tree finally run out?" Rogge smiled wryly. But now it's not important to him. Now Zhao Ye and the others are still struggling in the water prison, without them getting in the way, even if the elves and ancient trees are all dead, the elves will not be unable to live. The easiest way to protect yourself from the cold is to wear more clothes, and bloated elves, although not good-looking, are much better than freezing to the side of the road.
Although the stumbling block of the temple is no longer there, there is an even bigger challenge ahead of Rogge.
Back in the City of Oracles, there is no need for Rogge to hide anything, his mental power has recovered a little bit in the past two days, and now his movements are as fast as ghosts.
With a thud, the door of Theseus was kicked open with a very rough kick. In the strong wind, a stout figure rushed into the room.
As if he had anticipated Rogge's arrival, Theseus was still concentrating on the tea, without even lifting his eyelids.
Rogge took a deep breath, tried to calm the anxiety in his heart, sat down across from Theseus, and took a sip of the hot cup of tea he had just brewed.
Xiusi raised his eyebrows, his face was painful, and he reluctantly smiled and said, "You don't have to show me your determination in this way! Say, what do you want this time?"
"Adjani is dead. Rogge said lightly.
"She's a good boy. Xius wanted to stay calm, but still sighed: "She's just too dead-eyed, and she values everything more than herself." If there are things that you can't think of, you will only keep them in your heart, and you will never tell others. Alas, Adjani ......"
"You can stop this from happening. Although I don't know about Adjani's relationship with Wind Butterfly and Rumsfeld, how can you, as the chief elder of the Dark Moon Tribe, not know? What she will do, you must know. Why don't you stop this? Why don't you tell me?" asked Rogge.
Theseus sighed and said, "Only what is lost will know that it is precious." At that time, where was the spare time in your heart for Adjani's affairs? Even if I told you, can you take it to heart, and can you let Rumsfeld and Wind Butterfly go? Besides, this kid's surname is so strong, I didn't expect it, alas!"
Rog's eyes lit up, and he stared at Theseus and asked, "She died a strange death, and how do you know how and why she died?" Elder Theseus, how much are you hiding from me?"
"Lord Divine Envoy, you are a great necromancer, Ajani is dead or not, can't you see it? As the Chief Elder, the guardian warriors of the Darkmoon Clan have always had a special way of sending me a message. So as soon as you returned to the City of Oracles, I knew Adjani was dead. This child is not weak after being rescued, how can she die in a battle of this scale? The only possibility is that she is just begging for her own death. ”
Rogge was silent for a moment, the look of hope in his eyes faded, and he said, "I need to interfere with the method of teleportation." ”
Xiusi's eyes lit up, and he said lightly: "You know very well what kind of magic teleportation is. Fortunately, it's just a distraction, and although it's still very difficult, it's not impossible. It's just that since you asked like this, you must know that this method will not be without a price. ”
Rogge looked up and stared at Hughes. Only then did the elven elder see that Rogge's eyes were bloodshot.
"Tell me that way, and I can pay anything. Rogge said lightly.
"At any cost?" Theseus' eyes narrowed slightly.
Rogge knew that he had fallen into his trap, but the fat man had no choice, and after going to the other world, he knew that time was everything now.
"Yes, at any cost!"
Theseus said slowly, "You know, this is just a way to interfere with teleportation magic, and it is not any powerful skill. This method can be said to be of no use other than for this magic. But how many people in the world can use teleportation? You should be well aware of that. It's an almost completely useless approach, and you're willing to pay any price, is it worth it?"
Rogge replied coldly: "It's worth it! I've inadvertently lost half of my world, and I don't want to lose half of my soul again." ”
Theseus smiled and said, "Very good! It's just that I'm a little strange that you don't bargain with me for such a big thing." ”
Rogge was silent for a moment and said, "It's useless to bargain with an old fox like you. You know my bottom line very well, now it depends on where your bottom line is, and whether you are willing to accept my request. ”
"Well, I've found a way to interfere with teleportation, and it's going to be difficult, but it's going to work. The quid pro quo is to erase your 'erosion'. ”
Rogge's body suddenly floated up, the space distorted, and silver ripples attacked Xiusi like wild waves!
Elder Xiuth's figure began to writhe, and the moment Rog's spiritual attack closed, his figure burst like a blister.
A strong force came from his shoulder, pressing Rogge back into his chair.
Hughes' thin hand gripped his throat like steel, and the other hand gripped his spine. Even if Rogli is as big as a monster, after being completely subdued, he can't move.
Rogge had no idea how Xius appeared behind him, how could Xius's soul energy suddenly appear behind him, so he was still in place just now?
Hughes let go, slowly returned to his seat, picked up the brewed hot tea, and looked at Rogge leisurely.
A sixteenth-level killer is really not something that Rogge can compete with, especially a killer with hundreds of years of experience. But is it true that this old fox is only level sixteen?
"How do you know I'm going to 'erode'?"
"If it wasn't 'erosion', how did Raphael create it?"
"Are you afraid that I will turn all the elves into Raphael?"
"Of course not for this reason. Although the elves have strayed from their original path in your hands, they are definitely not thrown into the arms of the evil gods like the dark elves. You will never be a believer in evil gods, although you will not believe in the gods of light either. In fact, you only believe in yourself. ”
"Am I not the oracle of Shiloh?"
"Oracles and faith are two different things. ”
Rog stared at Hughes and asked, "'Erosion' is the necromancer's top skill. Although I was lucky enough to learn this ability, it's not like you don't know that one of my professions is a necromancer. Why are you afraid now?"
Hughes still smiled incomprehensibly: "That's just a misconception that people have been misunderstanding all along. According to the oldest records of the elves, only necromancers close to demigods could wield the power of erosion. This power is so terrifying that necromancers who have mastered 'erosion' will be constantly sniped by various powerful beings. For the last five hundred years, legend has it that only one necromancer has ever mastered 'erosion', and the name is a taboo, so I won't mention it again. But what happened to him, you know for sure. Fortunately, your 'erosion' is only in its infliminest stages, and I didn't find out too late. ”
"Elder Xius, have you really been in the Central Mountain Range for four hundred years?"
Hughes drank the cup of tea and said, "It doesn't matter. Exchanging 'erosion' for 'teleportation' interference methods is my minimum condition. ”
Rog stared into the eyes of Theseus and said slowly, "I said that I could pay for anything, including 'erosion', of course. ”
Theseus stood up and said, "Very well! I consulted the elven texts and happened to know a way to remove the erosion. Now the magic circle is ready, in the next room. Come with me!"
