Chapter 468 Cat Playing with Mouse

"Priest Darnell is because he doesn't understand the characteristics of the northern fortress. It is under closed management, especially those core units. In order to avoid leaking information, they prohibit the entry and exit of literal things." Arnold explained with a wry smile. road.

"It seems that General Arnold's troubles are much bigger than mine." Darnell shrugged, and did not continue to ask this question, but turned the question back to the previous question, "Can we continue what General Arnold said earlier? Intelligence problem? How much do you really know about our current situation?"

Arnold asked without answering, "I don't know Priest Darnell, did you notice the tower on the top of the mountain before?"

"I have noticed." Darnell nodded, "Since everyone has entered the northern fortress, it is very difficult not to notice it. Could it be that the problem lies in that high tower?"

"Yes." Arnold nodded, "That tower is not a tower in the ordinary sense, but a mage tower."

"Mage Tower?" Darnell frowned. Obviously, he was the kind of person who really understood the hidden meaning of these three words.

"It's not a mage tower in the symbolic sense, but a mage tower that can cast battle magic in the true sense." Arnold added.

"A mage tower that can cast battle magic? The leader of Eternal Night built it himself?" Darnell showed a shocked expression, "I admit that the speed of development of the leader of Eternal Night is indeed a bit extraordinary, and he has a lot of things in his hands that are beyond ordinary people's imagination. technology, but there is no way to achieve this level, right?"

"Before this, I was skeptical, until in their arsenal, I saw a unique auxiliary tool called a perception tower, which allows ordinary craftsmen to have the same perception ability as a warlock. I just heard that this When doing this thing, the expression on my face is the same as yours, until I secretly tried it myself..."

"How?" Darnell couldn't help asking.

"It's even more amazing than the legends." Arnold couldn't help showing a fascinated expression, "I saw a colorful world, as if I had glimpsed the essence of this world, the earth would crawl under my feet, this mage The tower is an enlarged model of those perception towers. The perception towers used by those craftsmen are only three or four meters high, which is enough to strengthen my perception dozens of times, and I can easily feel things thousands of meters away. If this mage tower is built by a Warlock manipulation, what do you think will happen?"

"This will be a disaster for all stalkers." Darnell took a breath and said, "The strengthened consciousness of the opponent will cover the entire city."

"That's right." Arnold nodded and said, "I just thought of this question just now. I was too greedy. I wanted to see what the mage tower would look like after it was completed, but I forgot. This kind of thing is a kind of disaster for people like me. Looking back now, what followed me earlier was not a person at all, but a pair of ubiquitous eyes."

Thinking back on the process of being followed, Darnell's face also became very ugly, because he seemed to be in a similar situation.

At this moment, he felt as if countless pairs of eyes were staring at him.

Taking a deep breath, Darnell tried his best to calm down and said, "So, this fog is also caused by the mage tower?"

"It should be." General Arnold nodded.

"Understood, thanks to General Arnold for the information, I'm going to take a step first." Darnell nodded.

"Where is Priest Darnell going?" Arnold couldn't help asking, "At this time, I think it's safest for the two of us to join forces. Since the source is on the Mage Tower, we just need to rush to the Mage Tower , everything will be solved naturally, even if you want to explain the misunderstanding, you have to meet someone."

"My situation is not the same as General Arnold's after all." Darnell shook his head and said, "If I can't fight the territory head-on, it's better not to fight head-on. Once I do, it will only make the situation worse. I I have to find my students."

"Hey, I'm afraid it's not up to you to decide this kind of thing! By the way, I forgot to ask, what does your student have to do with the territory?" Arnold obviously felt that Darnell, who was doing spy work, didn't know what to do. Faced with dissatisfaction.

"She is the adopted daughter of Lord Sean's mother," Darnell replied.

"Then Priest Darnell doesn't need to worry about her safety, maybe she is drinking tea in the mage's tower now." Arnold said very optimistically, "Things have come to this point, don't priest Darnell want to Take a look at the mage tower built by the Yongye army leader, how far can it go?"

When it came to the end, Arnold held the bloody spear tightly, fighting high.

This is the true nature of what he is called the Spear of the God of War. The more challenging things are, the more excited he is.

"No, I wish you good luck." Darnell obviously didn't have such a strong fighting spirit, waved his hand, and retreated into the depths of the fog.

Click!

A thunderbolt struck Darnell in a "zigzag" shape.

Darnell instinctively drew out his sword, wanting to resist.

He suddenly remembered that this was an extremely stupid act, he let go of the two-handed sword, and the whole person retreated rapidly.

The falling lightning struck the two-handed sword and sent it flying horizontally.

Darnell, who retreated earlier, rushed back again, jumped up, and grabbed it back.

Even though his hands were already filled with magic power, the remaining thunder and lightning power in the great sword in both hands still made him tremble endlessly.

"Haha..." Arnold gloated a little, "Priest Darnell doesn't want to join forces, so he has to agree to it."

Darnell said with a gloomy expression, "What do you mean?"

"Since the two of us met, I have been thinking about a question, are you a human or a ghost?" Arnold smiled. "If you are a human, what is your purpose? If you are a ghost, what is your purpose?"

"General Arnold, please tell me something bluntly, I've had enough of your roundabout way of speaking." Darnell showed displeasure.

"Okay!" Arnold agreed, but actually still went his own way, "Now I can basically confirm that you, like me, are also uninvited ghosts, because the purpose of your words on behalf of the leader of the Yongye Army is nothing more than With the help of your identity as my acquaintance, you can find out about me. I have already explained everything that should be explained. After that, you will either start a fight or continue to get close to me. You chose to leave. This is undoubtedly the best explanation. So the new question Come on, why did the two ghosts meet in the misty environment! This kind of coincidence is too coincidental!"

"You mean, the meeting between the two of us was deliberately arranged by the other party?" Darnell asked in disbelief.

"Isn't this obvious? I came after the person who thought I was following me. Priest Darnell should be in a similar situation." Arnold shrugged. What about the low-level mistake that caused two people to meet? It is much more difficult to deal with two top powerhouses teaming up than they are separated, but this thing happened, the only possibility is that the other party deliberately arranged it."

"What's the point of doing this?" Darnell's brows furrowed even tighter.

"Of course it makes sense. After the two ghosts meet, the first thing to do is to exchange information. The other party can rely on our exchange of information to infer the information about the northern fortress we have in our hands." Arnold pointed the spear in his hand and pointed around, "Dane Priest Err will not forget the strong perception of the other party, our every word and deed, every action, is under the surveillance of the other party."

Darnell's face darkened, and he glared at Arnold and said, "So, you were trying to trick me just now?"

Apparently he remembered Arnold asking him the real purpose of coming to the northern fortress one after another. At that time, he didn't know that there might be countless pairs of eyes around him.

Regardless of whether there is a ghost in my heart, isn't it deliberately cheating myself by doing this?

"Sorry, I didn't know whether you were a human or a ghost before, so I have to try it out!" Arnold said without sincerity.

"Then what does it mean that the thunder forced me back?" Darnell resisted the urge to give Arnold a sword and asked, he felt that his brain was not enough today.

Because both Sean, who was dormant in the mage's tower, and Arnold were too calculating. A meeting in the fog involved so many crooked ways.

It may also be because they all have ghosts in their hearts, and he is the innocent one. Unfortunately, this kind of innocence is probably only recognized by himself, neither Sean nor Arnold think so.

Arnold shrugged and said: "I want to try the power of this mage tower. The other party may not want to borrow our hands to see how powerful their new weapons are. In the eyes of the other party, they may dislike us for being too weak alone , will be crushed, so I want the two of us to join forces. Of course, this is just my personal guess. Whether it is for this reason or not, I still need to ask the master of this mage tower, or priest Darnell try again twice?"

"It is rumored that General Arnold's personality has become very bad. I didn't believe it before, but now I have experienced it myself." Darnell's face was even darker. To what extent is this guy so dark-hearted that he would encourage himself to try Ray.

Regarding Darnell's ridicule, Arnold ignored it directly, and said with a smile: "It's because Priest Darnell didn't believe what I said. This is one of your two options. The other option is to accompany me to kill the mage tower. Find out."

Darnell took a deep breath and said loudly, "Lord Sean, is that you? If yes, please give me a chance to explain. This matter has nothing to do with little Elena, and I will never spy on the Eternal Night Army." To get a secret."

Arnold held the bloody spear and watched coldly. He neither stopped nor imitated, because he knew that his nature was different from that of the other party, and he was indeed spying on the other party's military secrets. This matter would not be so easy. Even if the other party has a close relationship with his own niece Sophilia, and signed a cooperation agreement with Grand Duke Cedric.

Darnell was answered by silent silence.

Between heaven and earth, it seems that there is no third person except him and Arnold.

After waiting awkwardly for a while, Darnell still chose to take the initiative to try, and walked cautiously away from Arnold.

But before he could take a few steps, a thunderbolt struck again.

Compared with the last time, the power of this lightning strike is obviously much smaller, and the meaning of warning is obviously greater than that of attack.

Darnell turned to look at Arnold, and Arnold spread his hands and said, "Master Darnell, it seems that there is no choice now."

"I want to see how many lightning strikes he can use." Darnell is obviously not the kind of person who is led by the nose obediently. in the fog.

Click! Click! Click!

Darnell seemed to have touched a certain mechanism, and countless thunderbolts were born out of thin air, one after another, forming a huge thunderstorm area, and smashed towards the top of his head.

The speed of the lightning strikes is fast, and Darnell's speed is even faster. In the second before those lightning strikes, his speed will inevitably increase several times in an instant, and then an invisible barrier will appear outside the body, isolating the body from the thunder and lightning. attraction.

Those lightning strikes could only strike the open space behind him.

Although the thick fog formed by the energy of magic spells blocked his sight, Darnell was also at home in this environment. Not only was it much easier to cast spells, but the power was also much greater than usual.

However, these lightning strikes were obviously controlled by someone. When they found that they could not catch up with Darnell, they immediately adjusted their strategy and began to arrange advance measures, bombarding in the direction of Darnell.

Caught off guard, Darnell was struck by thunder.

Fortunately, in order to pursue speed, these lightning strikes are small and medium-sized and not very powerful. In addition, Darnell also has a shield formed by magical energy to defend himself, so there is not much lightning power that actually penetrates into his body.

Even so, he was still forced into a series of dangers.

What was truly frightening was not the damage caused by the lightning, but the paralysis that came with it, which made him almost dodge the subsequent series of attacks.

When Darnell hurriedly resumed his rhythm, he found himself under the attack of the thunderstorm and returned to the original point. Arnold's hideous hippie smiling face appeared in his sight again.

Arnold said with a smile: "Priest Darnell, accept the fact that people are playing cat and mouse! Once you accept it, you will find that the decision is not that difficult to make."

"I don't accept it!" Darnell gritted his teeth.

Turning his head, he rushed into the heavy fog again.

The result was exactly the same.

The terrifying thunderstorm didn't cause him substantial damage, but he couldn't get out of the fog either, wandering around for a long time and then wandering back.

The fog formed by the magical energy not only obscured his sight, but also obscured his powerful perception, making it impossible for him to judge the direction. What's even more weird is that the surrounding buildings have become the same at some point. It's like being in a huge maze.

It wasn't until he was forced to jump on the roof of a house, but when he stepped on the ground, he didn't realize it.

The thick fog surrounding them not only has the effect of blocking sight and perception, but also has a hallucinogenic effect. What they see and hear is difficult to distinguish between true and false.

Including thunderstorms that look menacing.

Darnell couldn't tell which of these lightning strikes were real and which were fake.

Because no matter whether it is true or not, it is formed by the energy of magic, but the power contained in it is different.

As a result of the risky attempt, he made himself ashamed.

Because as long as one of these lightning strikes is real, if it hits him, it will paralyze him for a while, and the ones following behind will all be real.

Although Darnell didn't want to admit it, what General Arnold said was true. They are now two mice under the cat's claws. They are deliberately molesting them. Otherwise, a champion knight will randomly come to entangle them, and those thunderbolts will kill them Putting it down is just a matter of minutes.

As for whether there are champion knights in the northern fortress, isn't this nonsense?

How could it be possible that Sean, as the leader of the first army, did not have a champion knight guard by his side?

Not to mention that the lord's guard army that Yongye army leader is forming is being selected and trained around, and there are nearly 10,000 serious knights.

Wherever it is placed, it is a force that scares people to death.

Darnell could only bow his head obediently, preparing to be the whetstone of the Mage Tower, leader of the Eternal Night Army.

Side by side with Arnold.

The thunderstorm that had been chasing him all over the world before disappeared, and the peeping feeling from before reappeared, guiding them forward.

Don't mention that kind of aggrieved feeling.

Darnell felt that he had become a poor marionette now, and his every move had to follow the will of the other party.

The clay figurine is also very angry. After repeated tossing, the guilt in Darnell's heart for not telling him has almost been dissipated. He wants to see what kind of tricks Sean can come up with.
