In the deep summer night, the cold moonlight was quiet and bright, and in the thin chirping of insects, spread out everywhere, and the whole of Burgundy was plated with a silver shell.
But not everywhere.
The rough house that had been built in a hurry was quite wide, but the darkness spread like a mist, filling this new place, which for some reason no one had inhabited, so that the moonlight could only be desolate, stopping at the edge of the rough window lattice.
"I didn't expect that the second person who noticed it was you, then, our Spider Queen Xià, also want to show off her appearance in this little ball?"
Wonderful sounds, sounding in the darkness.
Clear, crisp, it is a colliding ice cube, or a gently tapped crystal.
"It's impossible to ignore such an interesting thing. ”
The voice of the response, with a little hoarseness, mature and lazy, and every pronunciation is like a feather, wanting to caress people's hearts and evoke a strange **.
Both male and female.
"Speaking of which, what do you want to do?" the voice laughed, "You have reluctantly recovered a little strength, isn't it more suitable for you to be silent now, and then take the opportunity to develop?" Ari Stalller almost consumed all your strength last time, speaking of which, your current strength ...... Well, you're starting to move closer to those disgusting guys, do you want to leave your past behind and exercise those so-called justices instead?"
"Speaking of preaching love and justice...... This time, you've deceived your followers again. They seem to really believe that they have gained the favor of a new goddess, and that they are kind?"
"Is the means important? Hehe, don't forget jì, now that the divine energy in the world is saturated, where do you want to plunder the power? Wouldn't it be better to be my servant?, or it's hard to regain the old view, but it doesn't matter if it's a ziavin sari or a shiventam. I can give you whatever power you want...... Or, if you work with me to get rid of Guannade. A wiser ally will always appeal to me more than those stupid beings, not to mention a female deity like you. ”
"Working with you? is an interesting idea, if you give me the divine energy of lies and trickery......"
"Well, it's not impossible, dear Lady Dark. But will you be satisfied then?" the mature voice laughed, "Just dear. The Dark Lady, who was once almost on the top, is willing to cower in this small human city, slowly waiting, guiding, and seeming the ambition to become a superior god. With the collapse of power, it has completely dissipated into invisibility......"
"It's all in one fell swoop, that's what only stupid demons do, oh, or, the abyss. It's easy to weaken the intellect in itself?"
"We all have our own goals, and we don't conflict, but I warn you, don't try to control that little fellow, he may like your people, but he won't be coerced by you, otherwise Lansender would have already accomplished his plan." There is no god who can come into direct contact with that power, I can't, Lansendel can't, and you can't, so Rose, you'd better be smart and stay where you are and seek cooperation, or you'll end up waiting for your results...... Or, do you want to give it a try?"
"I'm not interested. ”
The mature voice paused, and then grinned: "Actually, if you want to get power, why bother with him, I will let you understand at any time that as a gentle pampering, it has never been something that a man can give such a lowly being......
"Love?" is a very ironic thing that comes out of your mouth, and I think in your eyes, the so-called love represents only a distorted and hungry ** that can't be vented," the cold voice was also laughing, sneering:
"You have never understood a man, so naturally you will not understand, only what he can reach out and touch, but will not give him lightly, is the most attractive, a thing, you put it in his hand, wrapped around him, then it is no longer precious...... For them, women are the same entanglement, or just the most inferior fetters......"
"Hehe, dear...... If he had a special hobby, I might believe it, but right now, you definitely don't have any chances. The mature voice said: "It turns out that his hobbies are very normal, in fact, men, such lowly creatures, the so-called preferences for women, are usually just for their essence...... And you have absolutely no advantage in the way you look now, you don't want to change your body type, that's your business, but if you want to use this appearance to gain an advantage, don't blame people for laughing at you?"
"Really, do you want to compare now, who can get more new appointments from him? I will give it to me if I ask him for all the rights to the city...... What's more, this place was originally built for my people, and your subordinates, hmph, I'm afraid no one will be allowed to stay in this city except for that rotten melon, right?"
"Now in terms of numbers, I don't think those new toys of yours have an advantage anymore, right? Moreover, those bastards mixed with the blood of the lowly elves can really achieve absolute superiority in numbers? Don't forget Jì, he is now looking for more power, and besides, for me?"
"He rejects you, and you, who are notorious, can't get his real new appointment, at best, it's just a use, a mutual use. The clear voice mocked.
"Help him for free, pay for him, you can get more, he has nothing now. Or are you content with this little city? The power of slowness?"
"Youth, in addition to the lack of heritage, can also represent a huge upside. ”
"Of course, I don't doubt that if he is given a certain amount of time, he will change the balance of power in the entire plane, but you should know very well. As the owner of that thing, he didn't have time. The mature voice calmed down, thus. That temptation is gone, and in its place is heaviness. Icy indifference:
"The owner of that thing may be able to have temporary power, and in the end it will inevitably be wiped out by the old ghosts, I have no interest in the power that must be lost, only the fool of Lansendel would want to get this power for sure, and once he is discovered...... You think I'm going to put my chips on such a fireball necklace? Hmph, the last time it had a bad ending, it was good enough. ”
"I'm afraid that when the time comes, you will also be a member of his hostility. Isn't that a contract made by you so-called high-ranking gods?"
"Who can be bound by a contract??" said a seductive laugh, and the original palpitating indifference vanished: "This little fellow is very interesting, but unfortunately he is a weak male, and he is unfortunate enough to come across this thing." Otherwise, I'd be glad to have him my people. No, the electorate is not an unacceptable condition......"
The words didn't end, but the mature voice gradually faded and eventually disappeared......
As the darkness receded, the moonlight illuminated the rough house. The silent space, but still unable to illuminate the center, the slender figure that seemed to be condensed into darkness.
"Elect?" sighed in a clear voice.
......
"The elect is actually the mortal representation of the gods. In essence, they were also a special kind of clergy, only unlike ordinary priests and priests, they were given direct access to divine powers. ”
The Spirit Crystal Servant poked Crystal's head out of Edward's hood and explained to him, "Almost all the gods in this world have Sons of God and Elect roaming the continent, but until now, Rose has been an exception. She doesn't like to share any of her powers, and, you know, there are a lot of people who can peek into her power underground, after all, although she is known as the main god of the dark elves, she is still a little worse than those real main gods in terms of ability, because of the original rebellion, Corellon has deprived her of a lot of power. Unless one day she completely unifies the Dark Elves' divine lineage, she must be cautious. ”
Edward nodded, not speaking.
His gaze, passing in the silent darkness, fell in the distance, the edges of twisted cliffs, where pinnacles and stalactites were staggered, and some miserable blurred light source loomed from their strange shadows, like the blood-stained teeth of demons. A rumbling sound came faintly from the lower part of the ground, and the subtle mist, constantly erupting, filled with small rifts, reflected the magical glow emitted by moss fungi and other mosses all over the stone walls, forming a strange illusion.
It's off the beaten track, deep in the depths of a dark place.
It didn't take long to get here—near the surface of Tongguò, in the newly built city, a teleportation circle, and they came here, a cave at least forty miles underground. It's just that the next journey encountered some minor troubles.
“...... At least fifty miles from here?Why can't you teleport in a place like this?If you don't want to, I'll do it!" Miss Lisa's voice was a little sharp, but fortunately, the tremors in the vicinity were enough to drown it out.
"In the dark region, once the depth reaches about forty or fifty miles, spatial spells will become difficult to use, unless a permanent teleportation circle is established or a natural spatial gap is used, otherwise, any teleportation behavior is dangerous, I should have mentioned this to you, right?" Dahni whispered. "Don't you notice any difference?"
The half-elf pouted and turned her head in dissatisfaction, and replied with a cold snort - she had never shown any affection for this dark elf from the beginning, and it had become more and more bad recently, as for the reason...... Edward didn't want to delve into it, but fortunately, although the young lady was angry and spoke ill of her from time to time, she didn't do anything substantial, so she went with her.
"The vitality of lichens and moss has become stronger?" replied a figure shrouded in brown cloaks at the back of the human team.
As far as the eye can see. Most of them were hidden in a deep darkness, quiet and silent, but originally only occasionally emitted a faint light on the moss and stalagmites, and the halos of blue, light purple or pale cyan were now shining.
"In a sense, yes. This is the effect of the leyline radiation. Drow nodded and responded, "They affect the Dark Realm. Includes magic items. It can make the sword forged from dark pure gold sharper, the armor stronger, and the power of the spell cast with the power of the queen god. It will also be stronger, and it will even directly affect the strength of the creatures here, and you will be weakened to a certain extent. And we're going to get stronger. But in the same way, it will also make many magical powers unpredictable and difficult to control, so for the rest of the journey, I will walk to at least avoid this area where the leylines are most radiating. ”
"So, what are you going to do with her?"
The Spirit Crystal didn't point out anything explicitly, but Edward raised his gaze slightly: "In other words, Rose may have placed an omnidirectional detector next to me." Right?"
"Who knows? working with Rose is not a good choice, and the benefits are not impossible, that woman's personality is very close to that of a demon, and it is all up to personal feelings, as long as you are useful to her. She really won't be stingy with a little discount, but betrayal is her forte, who knows if it will give you a stab in the back?
"As long as she has achieved a solid foundation. Probably I'm useless, and it depends on her judgment, in fact, at this stage, even when it comes to counterattacking, she has nothing to counterattack, and if she wants to find her husband's bad luck, she has to drill through the central mountain range. ”
"Why lie? You know that she's not just returning to the surface
"I'm just preparing for the worst. ”
"Actually, no matter what those missionary gods and slaves say, almost all the existing gods, that is, except for a few very lucky ones, the rest are no longer those tens of thousands of years ago, let alone the gods who first created this world, most of them are upgraded from mortal things, and they are not comparable to those powerful things that existed at the beginning of the multiverse. The voice of the Spirit Crystal servant made him again
"Even if you master some of the rules of the main material plane, it is not very powerful, if you have been to the astral plane, you will know that the corpses of the dead gods in it, take out any one of them, and in their heyday, they may be able to bombard these so-called main gods to scum! In fact, in this plane, mortals can also do this......"
"Unfortunately, it wasn't me. ”
Rose's offer this time was indeed difficult for him to refuse, and being able to get the support of a god was a great reward in itself, although Rose was notoriously evil and capricious, but she was obviously smart, and she should not do anything dangerous to herself until she got a foothold on the surface.
As for refusal?
Most importantly, there is no possibility of refusal, right?
The red eyes that stared at him flashed through his mind...... Edward's brow jumped, and he had no doubt that if he said it, maybe even a thought of refusal, the spider queen would eat him alive.
Moreover, this god accurately grasped Edward's weakness - it would be an exaggeration to say that he could travel anywhere in the dark region without hindrance or with the help of a large number of dark elves, but at least stationed in a random position at the bottom should not be a problem. If you want to catch a few spirit sucking monsters, it should be even more of a problem.
Especially...... Those hillbillies who are deep underground will definitely be willing to have some material exchanges, and the dark elves' attainments in magical items are also worth looking forward to.
For example, the dagger in Edward's hand now has rubies.
It's a beautiful piece – the grip is a spider with eight legs outstretched, covered with barbs, all of which bend down at the same angle. Composed of sharp blades. Its shape is unique, the decoration is gorgeous, the blade is translucent, I don't know what material it is made of, but the cold light is shining, and it is estimated that it is also very good for killing.
"Treasure, Rose's sacrificial blade, it's really a treasure of great goods......" The spirit crystal servant sneered: "She can make a handful of this thing at will, although the lethality is okay, but except for the priestess, there are few who can use it casually, not to mention that it is also infused with her power, with it, she has another layer of ways to monitor you." ”
But it is more accurate to say that it is not so much a weapon as a symbol of status and status - it is called the Spider Dagger. Because it is used in the ceremony of sacrificing the spider, it is also called the sacrificial knife. In Drow's society, only those who make a special contribution to the family are rewarded with a spider's dagger by the mastermother. If a commoner owns it, it means that it has acquired the equivalent of a noble land. And this handle in Edward's hand was a gift from the Spider God himself, and the subtle, but indifferent power on it was enough to make every drow who faced it kneel to the ground.
Unfortunately, it may not be convinced.
After all, their understanding of rank comes from the deterrence of strength, and the reward of the spider queen for betrayal undoubtedly makes this deterrence more fragile, unless Edward can show enough strength, otherwise, rashly showing this dagger will only bring more miserable deaths and more enemies.
Kerala ......
A dull grinding sound interrupted Edward's train of thought, and he lifted his gaze to catch the flickering, obscured black ...... in the distant darkness (To be continued......)
