Demon Lord

Chapter 432 Mortal

When standing at the hole and looking down, Nata and Akasha realized that this magic tower might not be as simple as it seems.

Even the Pasha'er Demon Tower has never had a "hollow-out" design underneath - everyone understands the importance of the foundation, and Akasha also knows the truth that the higher the building, the deeper the foundation, but now it seems...the two The body of the tower that I saw outside seemed to be only a small part of the top of this magic tower.

In short, the magic tower seen by outsiders is just the tip of the iceberg.

Apart from the ice crystal veins, Akasha and Nata were not interested in exploring anything else. They both knew that this was not the time to be in a daze, so they just stood there for more than ten seconds, and they both took a step back, and then looked at These rooms above the tower.

"What should we do if the tower is broken?"

Akasha's words are actually more like asking herself. Although Nata knows the pros and cons, she knows that she can't make any effective judgments because she doesn't know magic. After thinking about it, she replied aloud: "First make sure you survive, and then find Roddy and the team."

"Survive..."

They all understand the reasoning and the goal is the same, but Akasha understands how difficult it is: if they are only attacked by orcs or undead, it is not difficult, but just now, among those terrifying existences beyond cognition, which one can they dealt with?

So far, I can only rely on my own head to find a way.

"Go up and look at these rooms, it would be best if you can find another way out."

Although she always remained gentle and quiet when she was beside Rody, Akasha was the captain and led the team after all. Seeing that Nata had no opinion at this time, she took the initiative to stand up and make a decision.

"Keep some distance from me, if you fall into a trap, there will be someone to take care of you."

Akasha walked up the stairs while talking, and she could see some scorched marks on the ground, presumably it was burnt out by the Elemental Balrog just now, other than that, everything around her was clean.

Climbing up the steps, there was no movement around, the only thing that could be heard was the breathing and footsteps of the two. When they reached the second floor, both of them noticed the exaggerated High Elven "graffiti" on a stone wall——

"A Bunch of Frogs in a Well"

Akasha has already known most of the high elf text under Rody's teaching and self-study, and when she saw this sentence, she couldn't help spelling it out. She read it several times, but found that the handwriting looked random, but in fact it was not simple: because it was directly engraved on the stone wall by some kind of force, and it was definitely not done by a sharp weapon.

Going forward, you can still see similar traces on the wall:

"The one hundred and twenty-seventh experiment failed, I don't believe it can't be solved"

"This is the thirteenth year, you fools of Elson, just wait."

It sounded like someone's thoughts, but after reading a few sentences, Akasha felt that something was wrong: Isn't Elson the high elf king's city? Does the person who wrote this sentence have a grudge against them?

While thinking, Nata, who had been silent all along, suddenly said, "There's something strange here..."

"Huh? What's strange?"

Akasha turned her head.

"Although I don't recognize these, but you see—except for these graffiti, it seems that there are no words anywhere..."

Nata's words made the little priest who was thinking widen his eyes. It’s okay not to mention, but looking around like this, the words that should be marked on the door or outside are all bare

When I was in the Pashaer Demon Tower, those rooms would be marked with words such as "specimen room", "medicine material storage room", "element laboratory". to any words?

"Didn't have time to write it? It's not right..."

Akasha stopped, stretched out her hand and brushed the stone door that should have the handwriting, and never thought that the door would open silently. The scene inside the house made the two people outside the door startled at the same time——

There is a stone platform covered with scratches in the stone room that seems to be more than fifty square meters. The dried blood on the surface has been superimposed so many times that it even turned the originally blue stone platform into purple red. And on the ground next to it, a decayed corpse was disembowelled, the flesh and skin had already withered, and only the hideous expression remained on the face.

On the other side, more than ten corpses of the same size were piled up into a hill, and the densely packed skeletons made Akasha tremble.

She wasn't afraid of corpses, but she suddenly had doubts about the role of this magic tower——

"Are these... the corpses of snow monsters?"

"sip"

The snow monster clinging to the city wall suddenly fell and hit the ground heavily.

The back of its head was shattered by the wood, because the impact was too heavy, its eyes were already smashed, and its limbs twitched a few times when it landed, and it died directly.

On the outer city wall, the besieging snow monsters used their lives to tug-of-war with the soldiers from Karen Kingdom.

Although each snow monster is huge, it doesn't have much resistance in front of the city wall. The city wall is smooth and tidy, and it is difficult to climb. The snow monster struggled to climb up and was smashed down within a few meters. When the body of more than 400 kilograms fell, it often dragged three or four companions. It caused countless snow monsters to howl and lose their lives.

The corpses piled up like a mountain under the city, but the soldiers didn't have much joy on their faces. The continuous fighting made them gradually feel tired-even if there was a rotation of the reserve team, such uninterrupted fighting was hard for people who fought hard. Looking at the snow monsters rushing up irrationally, even the most senior soldiers were a little terrified.

These veterans are not afraid of fighting tough battles, but fighting against a group of irrational lunatics is really frightening.

All the elites in a hundred battles have such emotions, and those barbarians who have not experienced a few fierce battles are even more unbearable... When those timid and cowering barbarians were reprimanded by Soderol face to face, everyone's expressions were extremely embarrassing.

The two sides did not understand each other's language, but everyone could understand the most basic body language: Soderol pointed his sword at the bottom of the city wall, even if the barbarians didn't have a brain, they would know what it meant. But even so, most of them stood there with their heads bowed, exactly like ostriches with their heads stuck in the sand.

Even though there were several battles with the snow monsters before, the impact of the barbarian's ten-year cowardice could not be eliminated at all... For most of the barbarians, being able to keep standing without breaking up and escaping is already the result of their hard work and restraint .

"Don't you have any brains? If you don't go up now, we will all be finished when the other party goes up the city wall."

"Damn it...don't stand here stupidly"

The scabbard had no effect at all on these guys, except for the guy named Irwin who seemed to have a war accident, the rest of the big guys were looking at the city with erratic eyes, as if they were ready to run away at any time Prepare.

"We cannot escape from Basra, Guco, what are you afraid of?"

Erwin is considered the strongest in the team, but because he is too young and has no prestige, his persuasion is also ineffective-for the current battle, he actually has no "foresight" and is purely good Due to the war. But meeting a group of "pig teammates" who were unwilling to contribute, Erwin couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

"It's bloody mud that won't stick to the walls."

He yelled, yelled, yelled, and hit him. Facing the still stubborn barbarians, Suo Deluoer didn't bother to say anything, so Yu Jian chose to give up, turned around with his shield and threw himself into the first stage. In the battle on the front line—the inner anger has no place to vent, and the snow monsters who are attacking the city are in bad luck: the giant log carried by the two soldiers was picked up by him, and under the blessing of fighting spirit, he turned around with one hand Under the city wall, three or four snow monsters were smashed into mud with "squeaking"...

"Give me all to die"

When the shouts of anger echoed around, four or five barbarians turned around and left the team, running straight towards the inner city. The remaining dozen or so people stayed where they were, with hesitant eyes. Elvin, who was holding a battle axe, spat, pointed at his fleeing companions and cursed a few words, then turned around and rushed to Suo Deluoer's side, swung his battle ax and opened a snow monster that was approaching. …

Such an accident is just an episode in the whole chaos. It took several hours to fight the city defense battle without much technical content. The attack of the snow monsters seemed to be gradually weakened by the soldiers' counterattack, but after the soldiers rotated the reserve team four times, five or six huge The "enchanted snow monster" finally approached the city wall with heavy casualties ahead.

Behind them, there are several more burly snow monster leaders...

"That... Ms. Melinsera."

Although the slightly hesitant words were not loud, they seemed extremely abrupt in the silent palace.

Merlinsera's figure froze, but she didn't stop her progress.

She is very clear about her current situation: she has come so far on this road, and there is no possibility of "stopping" - after the dragon crystal fails, all hopes are bet on the sculpture in front of her that is emitting energy.

Everything right now is a last-ditch effort, and no one can stop her.

But Luo Di didn't seem to have this awareness. After shouting that sentence, he hesitated for a few seconds and continued: "I think it's best not to open the thing in front."

There was a tremolo in his voice unconsciously, which seemed normal to Melinthra: a mortal should have this kind of awe when facing a giant dragon.

But she didn't know that Luo Di's nervousness was not because of her identity, but because of the relief on the inner wall of the palace.

After Melinsera entered, she went straight to the subject and ran towards the sculpture of Solomon in the center of the main hall, obviously planning to see what was under the sculpture. But Luo Di didn't dare to act so hastily—he was so nervous after taking the "legendary" level task, why would he walk around indiscriminately? After settling in place, he immediately began to observe the surrounding environment, hoping to find some clues that would be helpful to the mission.

For a successful P player, "tasks" are always traceable. And after seeing the reliefs around him, he also immediately understood what this place is...

"Ms. Melinsera - I'm not kidding, I hope you hear what I have to say before making a decision, okay?"

The Shadow Dragon ignored him, instead striding towards the sculpture in the center of the hall. Rody's eyelids trembled, and he felt his whole body tense. At this time, he didn't care about being rude, and said loudly: "If you have time, you can take a look at the relief on the third wall on your right."

Having said that, anyone can hear the anxiety and pleading in Rody's words, and Merlinsera's footsteps finally stopped.

But just when Rody thought she would look at the relief, Melinsera turned around slowly, and glanced at Rody with an extremely indifferent and disgusted gaze: "You are not qualified to speak here, mortal."

The next moment, she raised her fist and slammed at the sculpture of Solomon under the bronze canopy...

I must be writing when I am writing, and I will rest when I am really tired. The update is uncertain, but it will not stop. 】
