Chapter 384 Unexpected Battle
? Francis II fell. Although his body was still twitching slightly due to the supernatural being's powerful vitality, the old king had actually come to the end of his life. In this case, even a saint could Being there, he couldn't save his life.
"To be honest, if you don't have to, this is really the worst option," Duke - or Clement, looked down at Francis II who was taking his last breaths, shook his head slightly and sighed, "I don't I don't want to do it myself."
"You overestimate the power of the Flesh Construct," Edmund whispered. "I warned you long ago that a king is not so easy to deal with—my father always wore the Shadow Signet with him. On his body, during the decades of his reign, at least four high-ranking assassins have died under the power of this ring."
"Shadow Seal... I do know this thing," Clement quietly watched Francis II take his last breath, then bent down, "Now that His Majesty the King no longer needs this thing, just let me……"
Edmund reached out to stop him, and the young prince had a chill on his face: "Master Clement, this is my father after all."
Clement looked at Edmund with a half-smile: "It's rare that you remember this."
"It's all just to save this..." Edmund said with a frown, but before he could finish, Clement suddenly interrupted him with a wave of his hand. Bishop Ji stared at the dark crack that opened in the air: "It seems that we have a guest who is not on the list..."
As Clement's voice fell, a powerful magic shock immediately spread around him. Under the magic shock, the air between the space rift and Francis II instantly began to twist and shake, and a whole body was shrouded in shadows. The petite figure in the mist immediately appeared in front of the two of them.
The figure was hazy all over, and even the lower body was in a state of smoke that was close to blurring, but the upper body seemed solid and real. This form between real creatures and shadow dwellers made Edmund and Clement stunned. At the moment when the two of them were stunned, the petite figure had already rushed towards Francis II with shocking speed and dexterity, and took off the shadow seal on the king's finger, then turned his head and rushed towards the Shadow fissure.
"Humph!" Clement let out a cold snort. He had already sensed a definite aura that belonged to a real creature from the figure. Realizing that this uninvited guest would be the biggest uncontrollable factor, he did not hesitate to follow him. The fissure that was shaking violently and was about to collapse.
Edmund didn't see the essence of the figure. The first thing he thought of was the strange danger of the shadow dwellers, so he immediately sounded a warning: "Wait a minute! Master Clement!"
But when he cried out,
Clement's figure has disappeared in the shadow fissure - the already unstable space fissure finally exceeded the critical value after these additional shocks, accompanied by a strange scream, the entire fissure disappeared instantly not see.
In the gorgeous lounge, only the wrecked remains of the "Flesh Construct", the corpse of Francis II, and the crown prince standing silently remained.
Amber felt that her consciousness was rapidly falling between the shadow world and the present world, but faster than her consciousness was her sinking heart——
"I'm going to die, I'm going to die... I'm hungry to see what's going on! I'm hungry to find any clues! This time I really saw something big!!"
Amber's heart was blue with regret, and she kept scolding herself for her daring behavior all the way, but the ring she peeled off from Francis II at the last moment was still tightly clutched in her palm-in any case, this thing It is absolutely impossible to let go!
The illusion of falling rapidly only lasted for a moment, and in the next instant, the familiar black and white scenery of the shadow world appeared in front of Amber. As soon as she landed, she immediately confirmed that she was beside the "black mist vortex" before, and this place was still there. It is the "corresponding area" of the Shadow Experiment Field of Rebellion Fortress.
And in the next second, she felt a terrifying coercion looming over her head to cover her face - the old man who looked rather nasty at first sight was indeed chasing after him into the Shadow Realm!
There are quite dangerous aborigines in the shadow world, and even legendary powerhouses are in danger of falling at any time here, but Amber can guarantee that before those shadow residents are provoked and attack the old mage in the starry robe, he will definitely be Killed first—she didn’t dare to say anything else, she was quite confident in her combat effectiveness, and under any circumstances, she believed that she would be the one who was killed…
"Soldrin must be as good at fighting as the old zongzi said!"
With this last thought in mind, Amber resolutely released his shadow form, and then let himself fall into reality.
In the Shadow Lab, Soldrin ordered the soldiers to be on guard around immediately after Amber "set off" - this is the quality and team tacit understanding that an experienced ranger must have, because exploring in this ancient ruins , any behavior of anyone may bring about what kind of dangerous challenges, so the teammates telling you "I'll go ahead to explore the road" can basically be equivalent to "a wave of enemies may come later"...
This is not a pit teammate, but a normal procedure for the team to explore the ruins.
Just as Solderling was guarding the edge of the platform, a vague shadow suddenly emerged from the circular pit.
The high-level elf ranger immediately raised his hand: "Alert—"
Amber's figure quickly formed in the blurred shadow, and as soon as the half-elf fell to the ground, she immediately rushed out like a spring on her foot, shouting as she ran, "I'm attracting the monster! !!"
What followed was a series of panicked and incomprehensible shouts, "I saw the big news", "It's a big deal", "My information is worth at least two hundred gold coins from the old Zongzi" and so on.
Solderling didn't even listen to what was going on behind Amber. He had already seen another figure emerging from the circular pit, so he loudly ordered again: "Everyone is ready to explode and shoot!"
The figure in the pit emerged completely, it was a stranger in a robe of stars.
"emission!"
Soldering swung down his hand vigorously, and then he untied several specially-made heavy grenades from his body at an astonishing speed, and threw them into the pit with force.
The figure in the starry robe had obviously reacted immediately, but before he had time to hold up his shield, the surrounding Steel Ranger battle groups had already pulled the trigger of the launcher - accompanied by several consecutive beeps. With a sharp explosion, four heavy-explosive grenades wrapped in a light blue magic halo had already flew towards the target almost in no particular order.
Then, there was a powerful explosion that even Soldrin had never expected. Four explosions in a row almost made a sound, and the powerful explosion even sent Soldrin flying out!
Explosive shooting is a common skill of rangers. One of the ways to release it is to compress powerful arcane energy into arrows, and use the arrows as a carrier to cause a big explosion in the target area. The second way is to paste a heavy grenade on the enemy's head. .
The second release method is currently limited to Cecil's collar.
Wei! force! huge! Big!
In the huge explosion, Clement felt that he lost his balance as if he was being swept up in the wind, and even his five senses became a mess, a completely different from any normal magic, formed by the most primitive and violent energy. The impact was tearing at his protection, and the attack he received was too sudden - with the addition of one piece of spellcasting experience in his life, he never thought of any high-level spell that could be released so quickly without the slightest magic fluctuation. , In the case of lack of preparation, his shield failed to open, instead, the two body protection instruments on his body were automatically activated to help him resist at least half of the damage.
But as a high-level superhuman, he still survived with difficulty.
He is not the real "Legendary Mage Duke", but he is still a high-level powerhouse, and he is the fallen Druid who is best at saving life among all the extraordinary professions. In this brief moment, he saved his life.
This may be a trap, and Clement, after realizing this, immediately chose to get rid of the current situation where he was out of control. At least, he had to figure out who was attacking him.
Soldering was stunned to see a man covered in blood rushing out from the explosion, and he was even more astonished that this man covered in blood and wearing a mage's robe appeared from under the torn robe. But it is a layer of gray-brown "skin" like tree bark.
Acanthosis, a Druid's ability? !
Solderling's thoughts moved, but the movements in his hands were faster, and the grenades were not very useful in the face of fast-moving enemies. He took out the short bow that he was using, and raised his right hand to put three bows and arrows on it. On the string, as three sharp arrows emitting arcane light flew towards the target, a series of sounds of pulling the trigger of the rune and beams piercing the air also came from all directions, continuous scorching rays and small arcane missiles such as Fly towards the enemy like rain!
Several attacks landed on Clement, the high-ranking Druid endured the severe pain from all over his body, stopped by a pool, and immediately raised his finger to Soldrin's direction: "Withered. !"
Immediately, the feeling of the loss of life in the body surged up, and Solderling found that his hands were quickly covered by an ominous gray-white layer. He had to stop shooting and start using the magic within him to fight the spell, but the other steel swimmers. The cavalry members were not idle - in this short interval, the grenade shooters had quickly completed reloading, and aimed the launcher at the blood-soaked enemy by the pool.
Clement's hair stood on end at this moment.
But in the next moment, a greater sense of crisis came over him.
Solderin and the Iron Rangers also stopped all movements in an instant.
The pond behind Clement surging violently, accompanied by a strange sound like some kind of mollusk churning in the water and a series of tumbling foam, several thick tentacles suddenly protruded from the water and suddenly rolled up. A terrified fallen druid.
Afterwards, more tentacles came out of the water and rolled around Clemente one by one. At the same time, there was a voice full of anger from the water: "I'll just sleep! As for you guys by the side. Blast it with a howitzer?!"
