Hoswald is the gateway between the material world and the abyss of Hell, the closest place between the two realms.

Attracted by the power of death from the abyss of the Underworld, there are a large number of Veku undead here, most of whom obey Hela's orders.

However, compared to Hela Garr, who is most valued by Hela, the strength of these unchosen souls is very average, and the three of Salian, Valeera, and Stella Gossa are like chopping melons and vegetables after breaking into the enemy line.

Against these disembodied souls, purely physical attacks are hardly effective.

Stellagossa can inflict damage on souls with her powerful arcane magic, and she also enchants Valeera's dragontooth dagger by the way.

For the first time, Sarjan used his newfound talent, "Senluo", in actual combat, and a dark gray aura appeared on the Valagar sword.

Any soul struck by Sarean will wail and be sucked into the sword, erasing consciousness and transforming into pure death energy.

Due to the inevitable loss during the transformation process, the death energy flowing into Sarean's body can only be regarded as a mosquito's leg.

But no matter how small it is, it is still meat, as long as you continue to collect it unremittingly, you can always gather less into more.

The Sarren who could reap the rewards of the slaughter rose up, and the Veku spirits seemed to sense that something was wrong, and consciously stayed away from him, preferring to go next door to receive the arcane bombardment of Stella Gossa and Valeera's soul-cutting surgery.

These miscellaneous soldiers were unable to pose any threat to the three of Saljan, but only delayed their advance a little.

Clearing the way to the altar, Sarren motioned for the rune mages to enter.

Just as these prepared rune mages began to cast spells on the altar, Sarjan, who was still on guard, suddenly sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere around him.

Suddenly looking up, Sarean spotted a large number of armed Viku around the cliffs above the altar.

Valera also noticed these Veku people of unknown origin, frowned and asked Bretta, "Queen Brita, who are these people?" ”

Britta's face was a little gloomy: "My unfilial people, how can they be here?" ”

Stellagosa's hands gleamed with arcane light, ready to cast a ready spell.

"Could it be...... Is Hela? ”

"Damn it!"

Bretta slammed her fist into the stone pillar beside her, her face full of anger that hated iron and steel.

"That short-sighted fool actually violated the ancestral teachings of the Tide Clan and took refuge in Hela, the god of death!"

The social style of the Viku people is relatively primitive, and it is still far from the word civilization.

In this social context, the Viku people have always respected the strong.

As long as you can defeat all your opponents and make it to the end, even if it's just a brute who killed your brother and father, most of the Veku will end up pinching their noses and admitting it.

After all, history is written by the victors.

[Li Shimin: People are dead, don't cue. 】

[There is one thing to say, that Tian Khan only killed his brother and killed his brother, not his father, at most he just forced his father to abdicate. 】

Breta's four sons were ambitious from an early age, and when they came of age, they teamed up to kill their father in an attempt to ascend to the throne of the clan.

But there is only one throne, and there is no room for four people.

So naturally, the four wolf-hearted brothers fought each other.

To this day, the four brothers have won and lost, and none of them has the absolute upper hand.

Continuing like this stalemate is just a waste of time, and someone who is anxious finally can't hold it anymore and wants to use external forces to break the balance.

In the eyes of Salian and other foreigners, the tall Viku people all look similar, and they all have a raunchy and ugly face anyway.

Queen Bretta, however, recognized at a glance that the leader who was standing at the front of the crowd and was cheering up was none other than Wardgar, the eldest of the four brothers.

At Wardgar's shout, the Viku people on the edge of the cliff raised their harpoons one after another, spread their bodies and threw them downward.

"Tsk! This distance...... It's a bit of a hassle. ”

Sarren's ranged attack is very weak, and Valilla is no better.

Stellagossa could fight from a distance, but the farther away she went, the less accurate her spells became, and she couldn't guarantee that she would be able to defeat the Vikus from the bottom up.

"If you work...... It's good that Winlessa is here. ”

Valeera: "...... You just wanted to talk about tool people, right? ”

It was too late to close the distance, and Stellagossa had no choice but to abandon the initiative and instead prop up a small defensive barrier.

"Ding! Bite! ”

The harpoons thrown by the Vikis slammed into the outside of the barrier with a crisp thud.

A single harpoon can't do much damage to the barrier, but it can't stop them from being numerous, and constantly harassing.

Rune mages who can't concentrate are significantly slower in their spell casting progress, and the longer the time drags on, the greater the variables.

"Gan! No matter! ”

Saljan had planned to hide his identity under Hela's attention, but now he couldn't care so much.

"Stella, don't keep your hands on, let's kill!"

"Okay!"

The two of them jumped into the air one by one, and rose to the cliff as young dragons in this eerie deserted ancient city.

"Aang!"

As the two of them took off into the air and sped around, blue and red dragon breath spewed into the crowd of enemies.

The unexpected situation caused Wardgar and his Vikus to panic, and the harpoon throwers panicked and shifted their target to the air.

With the scale defense of the baby dragon, if it is hit by the harpoon thrown by those Veku people who are born with strange powers, there is a high probability that it will not be able to prevent it.

Sarjan and Stellagossa didn't foolishly maintain their dragon form with too big a target, and after crossing the height of the cliff, Sarjan took the lead in turning back into his human form, smashing his feet into the Viku formation.

"Roar!!"

The dragon roared, and a furious sonic attack spread outwards around Sarean.

The Viku people who were close to each other were torn in their eardrums by the sound waves, blood running down their ear canals, and one by one they fell to the ground with their ears covered in pain.

Stellagossa unleashed a large-scale arcane blast when he landed, knocking out all the hundreds of Veku around him at once.

There were several thousand of the Viku brought by Wardgar, but because the raid failed, they failed to do substantial damage to the rune mages.

With so many people, it would take a lot of time to stand still and let Sarren and the others kill them.

Just as Vodgar's face was cloudy and hesitant to continue the fight, there was a sudden commotion from their back.

Taking advantage of the attention of Salian and Stellagosa, another Vekku unit with a slightly different banner attacked Vodgar's army from the rear.

Seeing this scene, Bretta's face was a little complicated: "Skowald...... This kid is still so insidious. ”

Whatever the purpose of the comer, he did hold Wardgar's men at bay.

Saljan didn't bother with the infighting of the Tideviku, and his mission was to protect the rune mages who were casting spells.

The rune spells of the Viku are quite unique, they use carved runes instead of chanting spells, and if they draw quickly and skillfully, they can theoretically reach or even surpass the speed at which mages can cast spells without spells.

Sarena had consulted with Stellagosa about spells and spell casting gestures to help mages quickly build spell models.

The clearer the understanding of the essence of the spell, the shorter the gestures and spells required, and finally even the ability to cast spells without spells.

But in fact, spellless casting is not a single thought that can release a spell, the mages just quickly silently recite the process of the spell in their hearts, only using gestures to guide the spell, there is still a process of spell construction, but it is relatively brief.

The rune spells of the Veku people are passed down from the Titan Guardians, and the spells are not weak, and skilled rune mages are faster in casting spells than mages who chant spells.

More than a dozen rune mages drew a dark purple mystical rune in front of them at the same time, infusing their magic power into it continuously.

The central convergence of these runes is a bluestone staircase that extends downward, and the center of the staircase is gradually torn open by a gray portal.

Seeing the portal go from taking shape to stabilizing, Salian retracted his attention to the infighting of the Vikus.

"Stella, door!"

"Good!"

Stella Gousa, who had been prepared for a long time, waved her hand to open the one-person-high directional portal, and the lively little dwarf Chromie was the first to jump out from behind the door.

"Oooh! Is this the door to the abyss of hell? ”

Chromie looked with interest as he got the gray portal, and looked back at the other companions who were walking out, a look of impatience on his face.

"Let's go! I'll take the lead! ”
