Demon Lord

Chapter 942 Rescued

Obviously, the arcanists of the holy congregation are not stupid.

Nata's forged ruins in Wagla City showed no flaws. All the mercenary teams thought they had found a priceless treasure, but they didn't know that they were basically hired by a group of people. And when Blake compared these harvests with the coordinates of the ruins, he could see that this was a deliberate and precise trap.

Of course Panda knew these results, he hurriedly said: "Master Holy Master, this time is different... The mercenary team seems to have found a new ruin, but after taking some of the things, they were chased by unidentified mages right after they came out. In the end, only one person survived."

"Where are people?"

"I brought it, it's in the room under the magic tower."

Black's expression became much more severe, and he immediately asked Panda to take him to the room where the mercenary was locked up. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the mercenary eating a large piece of roasted venison. His clothes were ragged and his hands were dirty, but he didn't care at all. He didn't use a knife and fork, and directly grabbed and gnawed on the meat with his dirty hands, his mouth was full of oil and his face was shiny.

This scene made Blake frown a little - not because of the other party's sloppy, but because of the crazy temperament he displayed...

He glanced at Panda, who whispered, "He seems to be stimulated, and his speech is a bit incoherent."

After the other party finished eating the meat, Black began to ask questions. Panda said that after answering the questions, he promised to give him three times the mission commission—because the mercenary group no longer exists, the money is meant to be given to him alone, so this mercenary named Ludi basically knows He answered everything, and at the same time he brought back a package and took out the contents.

"This, this is all found in that maze-like ruin... But, but it seems that it has been emptied for a while."

What Ludi took out were several stone parts, Blake picked them up and looked at them, and found that they should be the front end of a staff in the hands of a figure sculpture. He felt vaguely familiar, and then raised his brows suddenly: "Does this sculpture only have one arm?"

"Yes! Yes! It's a one-armed weirdo. He's hunchbacked. He has a strange staff in his hand, so I chopped it off."

The mercenary's words confirmed the judgment in Black's heart, he didn't say much, but continued to ask for details. The latter answered honestly, but when the camp was attacked, his mind began to become confused: "I, I can't remember—I only saw a lot of lights flashing, and the leader is calling us to get up Meet the battle, the result is a series of explosions, non-stop explosions, non-stop..."

As he spoke, his expression began to become distorted, and he covered his head with his hands, obviously mentally stimulated.

But Black didn't care about his mental state. He calmly asked about the perpetrator's angle, the light of the explosion, whether the other party was following him, and so on. It wasn't until Rudy's eyes widened and he pulled up his hair in pain that Black finally stopped.

Ludi was panting heavily, and leaned back on the chair like a drowned man.

"It seems that what he said is true."

Black can now judge that this "new ruin" is completely different from the "Wagra City" found by the mercenary teams before. First of all, there are no misleading books in it, and those that can be moved have already been moved. Secondly, the "entrance" is also They discovered it by accident. If the team members hadn't accidentally fallen off the cliff, they would never have discovered this hidden ruin. And the most important thing is... the entrance of the ruins still has traces of being sealed again after being excavated.

If he were Rody, he definitely wouldn't wait for people to be baited in this kind of place—in other words, there was a high probability that this place was a ruin that Rody had never discovered.

The mere "remains" does not mean that Black is determined to send someone to search for something. He is more interested in the things in the relics, because the other party is obviously not on the same path as the high elves in the Wagla Imperial City.

"Elder Dominique once said before that there have been several major differences in the arcane research of the high elves.

Until the fall of the kingdom, this disagreement was still not bridged or settled. Therefore there are several factions among arcanists. "

When Black said this, Panda immediately nodded yes, but then he glanced at the mercenary next to him—when the Holy Master said these secrets in front of the other party, it meant that this guy could not walk out of here alive today up.

"I remember that the main difference lies in the views on the charging spar?"

Panda replied. Black nodded: "Yes, although most people quickly accepted the spar, many conservatives still believe that 'magic crystal' is the orthodox arcane school. After that, the differences became more and more serious, but in the end There is no detailed record of the extent of his technical achievements."

"I just remember that Dominic once mentioned that 'Sumi the one-armed' is the most dazzling leader of the old school."

He said and pointed to the part of the wand brought back by the mercenary Ludi: "The top of his wand is made of sixteen magic crystals superimposed, which is an iconic symbol, because if other arcanists do this, The result can only be blown to ashes."

Panda's eyes widened, because he realized that this part actually represented the magic crystal at the top of the staff. Such an unreasonable thing would naturally make people impressed. He picked it up and looked at it, then asked in a low voice, "Then...do we need to explore the ruins?"

"No, our focus is on those who attacked the mercenary group."

Black waved his hand after finishing speaking: "Let's go, it's time for us to discuss the next plan."

Panda nodded, and Lu Di asked, "Then my commission—"

"Boom!"

A blue light flashed, and his head was completely blown away by the arcane shock on the spot. But the flesh and blood did not splatter everywhere, but was blocked by an invisible barrier.

Lord Black had already walked out of the house when the body fell to the ground.

*****

"Nata! Nata!"

The voice seemed to come from a very distant place. Nata wanted to open her eyes, but found that her eyelids were so heavy that she couldn't lift them no matter how hard she tried.

She felt that her body was lifted a little, but her limbs seemed to have disappeared except for some sensation in her chest and abdomen.

"Can you hear me!? Nata! Wake up!"

able.

Nata tried to answer, but her mouth seemed to be stitched. This feeling made her panic, and then, the eyelids finally opened slightly, and the bright and dazzling light made her close them quickly - but just this time, the person in front of her shouted in surprise: " Great! Let's go! I'm carrying her on my back!"

A dizzy feeling hit her, and the heat and bumps in her cheeks made her realize she was being carried. Smelling the familiar smell, she knew that it was Tevlin Nora who was behind her back.

But... where is he?

After trying to recall for a few seconds, a few images suddenly emerged - the three-person team scattered and fled after being attacked, but he was left bloodstained because of his injuries, and was almost found by the enemy again. But after running for three or four days, the excessive blood loss and the cold weather finally made her physically exhausted. Nata guessed that she fainted on the way back to Elsa Village.

Thinking of this, her heart suddenly turned cold: Even if she could survive after falling in the snow at this time, her limbs, fingers and toes would probably be severely frostbitten. .

Nora didn't care to talk to her, in fact, Nata couldn't speak at the moment. But tiefling's desperate running speed is enough to tell that she is also racing against time—Nata was in a trance, and after running for an unknown amount of time, Nora finally took her back to the village, and after taking a few mouthfuls of warm water, Nata was finally able to speak Yes, but with a hoarse voice, she said, "Take what I brought back... to inform Prime Minister Roddy, hurry up!"

Although this is a warm wooden house, Nata has completely lost consciousness in her hands and feet, but she has no time to think about her future in her heart, but is concerned about the bag of relief fragments that she brought back with her life. Nora bit her lip and nodded. She clearly knew that Nata was seriously injured this time, because the leather armor on her thigh had been soaked in blood, showing a deep red color.

Seeing Nora holding the bag in her hand, Nata said "Go quickly", and then felt her eyelids getting heavier and heavier - the next moment, she completely lost consciousness and passed out.

Nata thought that she was greeted by death, but when she opened her eyes again, she confirmed that she was still alive.
