Chapter 127

The underground world of the Shimmering Silver Mountain Range.

After a small victory, the rat swarm retreated deeper, and the soldiers of the Emerald collar successfully occupied the new stronghold.

Due to the lack of manpower in the army, Lester decided to stop the exploration of the underground world and concentrate on building the underground fortress, because he was worried about being divided and wiped out by the red-skinned devil rats.

The dome is composed of exquisite black carved stone slabs. Eighteen black human-faced stone pillars stand under the dome with a certain harmonious distribution rule. It looks like a warrior with a hammer in his hand.

There is no doubt that this is an ancient ruin, but unfortunately no treasure chest or treasure has been found until now, or it may have been removed by mice.

Leicester stood in the ruins, carefully observing the carvings and pictures on the black round stone pillars, trying to understand the civilization and history here.

Meredith stopped in front of the tall black stone sculpture, observing with great interest the warrior in heavy armor holding a hammer.

The rest of the fighters were guarding the outside, ready to deal with the attack of the red-skinned devil rat.

In the underground world, there is no absolutely safe place, the only thing you can trust is the sword in your hand and the armor on your body. This is a valuable experience gained in exchange for many lives, and the soldiers of the Black Iron Guard have long understood this.

"Master Leicester, what kind of monster do you think this is?"

Margaret's voice came from behind, and Lester turned around and came to where Margaret was.

It was a corner of the ruins. Looking in the direction Margaret pointed, Lester couldn't see clearly between the light and darkness of the torch.

"Meredith, let me illuminate."

"OK."

As the brilliant white magic light shone on the dome, Lester also saw clearly what was at a height of ten meters.

It was a stone sculpture squatting on a black stone beam, with huge bat-like wings, sharp teeth and sharp mouth,

The monster's body seems to be covered with scales. Its short and thick right hand is holding a chain hammer carved from black stone. The monster's bloody mouth is wide open, and its eyeballs are half the size of a fist. Break free from the shackles of the stone shell, fly up from the beam, and eat human flesh and blood.

Fiendish and ferocious is Leicester's perfect definition of stone sculpture.

From the appearance alone, it looks like some kind of monster like a gargoyle, and Lester is not sure whether this thing can be called a gargoyle.

At least in the alliance game, he has never seen such an alien hell creature.

"This is a dragon-scale gargoyle, a powerful monster born in [bad land]."

Meredith came over and attracted the attention of the two with the words in her mouth.

"Dragon scale gargoyle? Where is [Evil Land]? Can you explain it in detail?"

Lester was a little curious. This kind of information touched his blind spot and made him understand that what the world information in the Alliance game showed was just the tip of the iceberg in Runeterra.

For reference, if you think you have all the information and act recklessly, it will only make your death ugly.

Low-key development and high-profile work can make you live longer and more comfortably.

"The information of [Badland] is carried in the high-level ancient Shurima language, recorded on the ancient scroll of Valoran in the library of the Black Rose Academy, which was discovered by a mysterious magic association in ancient times when it encountered an alien invasion [ different space], the lucky survivors recorded what they saw and heard,

[Badland] is similar to [Bandle City] of the Yordles, and its whereabouts are erratic.

The bad land will lock a certain space in the material plane without warning, so that people cannot leave through teleportation magic,

After the space is sealed off, badland monsters will invade the material world by opening the space portal. The monsters will get what they want by any means, and then leave through the portal.

At least in the records, monsters in the Badlands always prefer human flesh and blood in the material world. As for whether the soul will also be affected, we don’t know. All in all, these are a group of greedy and powerful monsters from another world. Enemy of all living beings on the continent,

I thought this was just an ancient legend recorded on the scroll, but I didn't expect to actually see the statue of the bad land monster today. It really is a big world, full of wonders. "

With a sigh of emotion, Meredith smiled at the two curious people.

"As for the origin of the dragon-scale gargoyle, there are only a few strokes on the scroll.

It roughly means that the gargoyle with the blood of the dragon will turn into an indestructible stone statue during the day to recover its lost body, and at night it will turn from a stone statue into a cannibal again, a brutal monster that likes to throw humans alive, cannibals The more there are, the more powerful the gargoyle is. The dragon scales on its body are indestructible and can resist magic and sharp swords. Only a real warrior can behead the gargoyle and kill the gargoyle completely. "

"So, at least the builder of this ruin has seen and defeated the dragon-scale gargoyle, otherwise he wouldn't have carved the dragon-scale gargoyle into a sculpture as a decoration for his ruins in a show-off manner."

"At present, it seems that they worship the warriors with hammers, not the gargoyles that are placed in inconspicuous places to decorate the solemn hall."

"Then the big-eyed tentacle demon on the stone pillar and the huge skeleton skeleton are probably bad land monsters?"

Following Lester, Meredith and Margaret came to the thick stone pillar that Lester had just observed.

On the stone pillar, a long-bearded man held high his weapon and human-faced shield, and heroically stepped on the corpse of the monster with big eyes and tentacles. He also held a huge skull in his left hand, looking like a winner.

From the perspective of carving style and delicacy alone, the stone pillar in front of you is enough to be called a master work.

"If I'm not mistaken, the one-eyed tentacle monster is the [Beholder] described in the scroll, and the owner of the skeleton should be the [Skeleton Guard] from the badland monsters. They are all very difficult badland monsters.

The beholder will create illusions for the enemy, making the enemy lose themselves, and even kill each other. Tentacles can easily smash the weak flesh and blood,

The Skeleton Guard is immortal, unless it is completely defeated with magic that cannot revive it, and it is impossible to kill the Skeleton Guard simply by attacking with weapons. "

"It seems that the owner of this ruin is not simple. To be able to defeat these evil land monsters, he must have a strong inheritance of technology and power.

I took a look around just now, and there are many strange mechanical works on the stone carvings. , this relic is far more than this hall, and there may be advanced forging rooms or technical workshops in the depths. "

Seeing the eyes of the two women light up, Lester smiled.

"As long as the mice are defeated, these will all be ours."
