Chapter 779, Deep Into the Enemy's Nest (Part 1)

Ps: I'm a bit stuck today, sorry for being late.

Three days later, on the fifth floor of Bafeng Mountain, an inconspicuous corner of the deep pit mine.

There was a flash of light blue light.

Five people, Knight King Ryan, King of Eight Peaks Belegar, Light Fire Witch Veronica, Dark Elf Olika, and Alaire's God-Chosen Champion Alaros, appeared in a corner of this deep pit mine.

Although both Veronica and Olica used a lot of mana in the previous Titan's Gate battle, Ryan worked hard in the past three days and finally helped Veronica and Olica to replenish their mana. , when the five people appeared in the depths of the mine, they found that they had come to a huge rock wall. The door leading to the outside here had collapsed for many years. When the five people appeared here, Bellega checked After looking at the rune mark on the wall, he nodded slowly: "Here it is, it seems that Brother Ryan's teleportation technique is quite accurate."

"This is our starting point, but why did we choose this place?" Veronica was dressed in a fiery red leather jacket with an elven mithril chain armor on it. The rare goods produced, Ryan bought five pieces through the relationship of Totegris, of which Veronica, Teresa, and Olika, who are not suitable for wearing heavy armor, have one piece each, and two sets. in the warehouse.

Bellega said: "Well, that's right, this is the mine on the fifth floor of Bafeng Mountain. As for why we appear here, because this is the most dangerous place, but it is also the safest."

"The most dangerous, the safest?" Alaros's face was still a little depressed. He was hit so hard by the previous incident that he shut himself up for two days sullenly. Until two days later, Lilith was done. Divine Power Talisman, and handed over to Alaros.

According to Orika, who accompanied Lilith, "This guy's face bloomed like a flower."

really! Lilith still loves me! Care about me! Alaros pressed the talisman given by Lilith to his chest, feeling warm in his heart, and almost shed tears.

The previous depression and decadence were swept away, and now, the wood elf hero was full of fighting spirit again and wanted to perform well in front of Lilith.

What Alaros didn't know was that Ryan was also reminiscing about the two days he spent with the fairy in the lake. They did a lot of things, making pastries together, cooking together, enjoying the snow together, playing cards together, nesting in the Chat and discuss the situation together, and some other things. Although Lilith is not very skilled, she is willing to learn. They also agreed to go to the King's Manor that Ryan is building in Musillon for vacation together after the expedition, and hold a small event there. private wedding.

Ryan is as aggressive as Alaros,

The difference is that it took more than a year for the King of Knights to think, and they are finally going to conquer Bafeng Mountain.

"Hmph, pointy ears, rare and weird, but it's normal, after all, pointy ears are a group of guys who are looking to the sky." Bellegar snorted coldly, the king of Eight Peaks obviously still hated what happened before, just because of Ryan's face A sincere apology from Alaros, including some kind of promise from the wood elves and material assistance to Eight Peaks Mountain, Bellega finally accepted Alaros' apology.

The King of Bafeng Mountain just yelled verbally: "This is the location where the Skaven attacked the mine. After being repelled by the ancestors, the rune masters used runes to permanently seal the mine. This tunnel is the closest to Quick’s lair, so it’s the most dangerous, but the Skaven have lost a lot of troops now, so they definitely won’t set up guard posts here, so it’s the safest.”

"Well, very good, so how should we find the trace of the headhunter Quick." Ryan nodded, and he looked out of the mine secretly.

The King of Knights was shocked by the sight in front of him.

What appeared in front of Ryan was a huge mine hall, hundreds of meters high and hundreds of meters wide. Dozens of bridges are suspended in the cave hall, each bridge is hundreds of meters long, connecting the entire dwarven mine hall. The bridges are covered with mine car rails, and many of the rails are still in operation today.

The dwarves' water pumps, engineering power devices, and water cooling devices are still running slowly, but what makes Ryan feel uncomfortable is that, in addition to the dwarves' devices, the Skaven's dimensional stone cables, dimensional stone illuminator, and various suspended wooden boards Passages, leftover wreckage, and excrement have been piled up everywhere in the mine hall. These Skaven devices are like vines parasitic on big trees, filling up the dwarven buildings and roads.

"Hush!" Bellega poked his head out from behind the gate, and the King of Eight Peaks Mountain pointed to the mine hall, and introduced: "There used to be endless rich mine veins under Eight Peaks Mountain, among which the best mithril veins and the best gold The mine veins are all under Bafeng Mountain, but after thousands of years of mining, the two mithril veins and the three gold veins have been exhausted, so the ancestors built this mine hall here, and continued to explore the underground on this basis In the depths, several inexhaustible new ore veins were found in the depths, and the ore mined from the new veins will be transported here by slings and mine carts, and then transported upwards."

"Four thousand years ago, this was the first place to be captured by the Skavens. Five hundred dwarf miners were caught off guard. Although they fought desperately, they were still defeated by these Skavens." Bellegar carried a hand on his back. Rune hand crossbow, he took out a binoculars and confirmed the situation: "Hey, the timing is just right!"

Ryan also poked his head out, and the five secretly observed from behind the mine's door.

Sure enough, due to the huge loss, the number of Skavens under the headhunter Quick's command decreased sharply. Even in the headquarters of the Moss clan, there was still chaos. There were even two small clans facing each other. Both sides were at war. Because of the constant quarrel over the little leftover food, if a stormrat was not on the scene to maintain order, there might be a fight soon.

"Hey, we can start!" Sure enough, Alaros couldn't bear his temper the most, and he began to bend his bow and set his arrows, ready to go to war.

"Wait! Alaros, don't forget our purpose. We are here to destroy the Calamity Clock and solve the headhunter Quick." Ryan waved his hand to stop Alaros' eager expression, and frowned: "So, Where are Calamity Bell and Headhunter Quick now?"

"Hey~ha~hey~ha!" Several gray prophets were directing a large number of slave rats to form a chaotic array and pass along the long bridge. These gray prophets were covered with festering pustules all over their bodies. The prophets are already blind, and some gray prophets are missing arms and ears. Their bodies exude a stench and a rotten smell. The slave rats that get too close are turned into rotten meat, but they are quickly killed by others. The slave rats swarmed up and devoured them all.

"The Plague Clan!" Bellegar was thoughtful, and the King of Eight Peaks Mountain looked at the gray prophets and a group of slave rats from a distance: "Why did the Plague Clan appear here?"

"Follow!" Ryan thought for a few seconds, and immediately motioned for everyone to follow.

Five people followed immediately.

Due to Quake's disastrous defeat, the entire mine hall was indeed very empty, and the number of guards had dropped to an all-time low. Only a few clan rats and slave rats were patrolling, and the scene was chaotic.

Ryan and the others successively dealt with several waves of patrols, and then killed several groups of slave rat miners. They followed the gray prophets all the way, and soon they came to a rock wall.

It was fixed with several dimensional stone chains and hung on the rock wall. The calamity clock burning with green flames was installed here.

And below the catastrophe bell, several gray prophets are surrounding a huge field.

In the center of the venue is the inverted triangle mark of the Horned Rat. Around it, there are thirteen tributes. Several Gray Prophets and a few Plague Rats are making preparations. The dark green light spreads everywhere, and the breath of evil and destruction spreads throughout the place. Dispersed in the middle of the field, the Calamity Bell was guarded by a rat troll behind him. The rat troll supported the ground with both arms, waiting for the orders of the gray prophets.

"That's Skaven's great sacrificial ceremony." Bellegar looked at the venue from a distance, and under the illumination of a large number of dimensional stone illuminator, the whole venue was shrouded in green: "Obviously, Quake intends to use this method to Let the supreme disaster lord continue to descend on the mortal world... But why do people from the Plague Clan appear here, Quek? He didn't appear in person?"

"I heard that the Skaven ratmen are fighting among themselves all day long." Ryan squatted beside Bellegar, discussing the situation with the King of Eight Peaks Mountain: "Brother Bellegar, do you think the ratmen are also fighting among themselves?"

"It's not like." Bellegar put down the binoculars, and the King of Eight Peaks Mountain considered everything: "The Skavens really like to fight among themselves, but Quek is different. Quek has always been extremely strict with his subordinates. The suzerain Gnodor trusts it very much, and it is also deeply loved by the Lord of Disaster, whose suppression of the Skaven is absolute, and internal strife at this time is unreasonable."

"Strange, that's why." Alaros immediately echoed: "Then what should we do now? I think we should kill them."

"Master, I listen to you." Olika covered her face with a black cloth and a cloak, only her eyes were exposed: "Kill these gray prophets first?"

Veronica also set her sights on Ryan.

"No...not in a hurry, let's wait a little longer." Ryan signaled everyone to wait, and the King of Knights rolled his eyes, staring at the scene of the sacrificial ceremony, obviously thinking about something.

Seeing Ryan not moving, everyone had to wait.

After another twenty minutes, the gray prophets realized that the dimensional stones used in the ritual were not enough, so they discussed it.

"Dimensional stone, not enough! Not enough!"

"Then get more~get more~don't let the Lurker Lord kill us all~!"

"Kill, kill~diedie!"

"Go, all of you!" said one of the leading gray prophets: "Go get some more dimension stones, hurry up!"

"Where are you going?"

"That green goblin thing, it's willing to give us a little more, the dimensional stone~ Hurry up, the ceremony is about to be completed!"

"Dimensional stone ~ yes yes!"

So three gray prophets left and took people to get the dimension stone, and the remaining eight gray prophets and plague rats continued the ceremony.

It could be seen that the ceremony was almost completed, and in the middle of the venue, the power of the rat god was gradually coming from the realm of the horned rat to the mortal world, and the face of the horned rat was becoming clearer and clearer.

"It seems that the alliance between Skarsnik and Quick is still there." Bellegar said in a deep voice: "This is very troublesome. Now that the green skins and the rat people have been defeated, this must make the alliance between them stronger." close."

"Ryan, why don't we do it yet?!" Alaros was a little anxious, and he hurried to Ryan's side: "Do it! Otherwise, it will be too late until these rats complete the ceremony!"

Only eight left? Ryan heard what Alaros said, and a very dangerous idea suddenly appeared in the mind of the King of Knights.

This idea is quite dangerous, but Ryan realized that if it can be used well, it may be able to greatly reduce the casualties of the expeditionary army, and it can also completely destroy the alliance between the green skins and the ratmen!

After thinking about it, Ryan finally made a decision.

"Let's get started, let's kill Calamity Bell and Headhunter Quick without anyone noticing!" Ryan took out his warhammer: "Do it!"

"Very good! Let's do it!" Alaros finally got the chance to make a move. The wood elf hero pulled out the quiver from behind, pulled out five arrows and hung them on the bowstring, fully drew the bow, and released the arrows.

"The Arrow of Kunos!"

The flying arrows instantly killed one Gray Prophet and three Plague Monks, and the remaining Skaven reacted immediately, and the leader Gray Prophet shouted: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!!"

"The Flaming Skull!" A huge flaming skull appeared in Veronica's hand, and Witch Garland threw the entire skull out with a smile, burning a lot of rat people to death along the way: "Don't run away! It just wants to play with you game!"

"Go! For the lady! For Britannia!" Ryan flashed directly in front of the Gray Prophet from a distance, and the King of Knights swung his warhammer, smashing the Gray Prophet's head into pieces on the spot: "Okay! Come on! Let the rat tide hit the chest! The chest!"

"Rats! See the shield wall with only one dwarf!" Bellegar also rushed into the battlefield, bursts of ancestral rune ripples erupted from his body, and the king of Eight Peaks swung the holy hammer, knocking the clan rats one by one. Smashed into patties.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!!" The Skaven rats suddenly became a mess. They rushed from all directions, but they quickly dispersed due to the deaths of the gray prophets and plague monks. Some clan rats wanted to go Reporting to Quick, how could Veronica give them such an opportunity, Witch Garland raised the staff of Yundini.

"Wall of Fire!"

"Flame Storm!"

The road was blocked, and Alaros took the opportunity to rush into the rat tide and slaughter them. The remaining Skaven rats could only be wiped out.

"Roar~roar!!!" The mouse troll protecting the calamity clock immediately rang the bell when it saw this. The piercing sound of the bell was enough to make any strong enemy approaching dizzy, or even killed on the spot, but the fairy in the lake This has been considered for a long time, and the five people are wearing the lake god amulet on their bodies. Although they are a little uncomfortable, none of them are affected by the bell.

"Shadow ~ come!" The mouse troll was about to rush up to fight Ryan, when Olika suddenly appeared above the mouse troll in the shadows, the dark elf grinned, and two butterfly daggers came directly from the mouse troll's forehead Penetrating, the rat troll twitched a few times on the spot, and immediately his eyes turned white. The dark elf drew out his butterfly dagger, and the heel of the high-heeled boots was a little above the shoulder of the rat troll. Like a dancing butterfly, it landed beside Ryan lightly, rolling the dagger and slaughtering the Skaven with him.

Ten minutes later, on top of the mass of corpses, all the Skaven in the entire sacrificial ceremony venue were wiped out.

The five of them worked together to destroy the Calamity Clock, and smashed the Skaven artifact into a pile of scrap iron, and then Belega planned to destroy the scene of the sacrificial ceremony: "Brother Ryan, this thing is almost finished, but don't worry about it." Can't stay, come, let's destroy it together."

"Let me come, you go out first." At this moment, Ryan signaled them to go out first: "It will cause a big impact to destroy the whole ceremony, so I will just come."

"Then, okay." Everyone left without doubting it. Only Alaros felt a little strange. He looked back secretly and saw that Ryan seemed to be destroying the ceremony, so the wood elf hero turned around.

Seeing that everyone had left, Ryan stood inside the sacrificial scene, and the Primarch of the Gray Knight showed a terrible smile.

Because the entire sacrificial site was already covered in the blood and corpses of the Skaven.

The king walked to the center of the circle with a smirk. He took out five of the thirteen offerings and burned them to ashes with psychic energy. Then he took the Ratman Dimensional Stone cutting pen and changed a few key positions in the ritual circle. For example, the inverted triangle holy emblem was painted out and changed to an eight-pillar holy emblem, and then a little spiritual energy was injected to activate the magic circle.

Seeing that the magic circle had started to operate, Ryan left the place quickly.

"Hey hey hey~ In this way, that guy can appear."

"It can help us solve a lot of trouble."
