Chapter 163 The Dark Wanderer's Conspiracy

“Dark Wanderer.

Lan Wu's attention quickly shifted from the Horadric Staff standing in the center of the magic circle to the dark wanderer in a black cloak.

The Dark Wanderer is still the same as before. You can't see the face, you can only see the small, half-dry chin exposed under the hood. It slowly raised its head, and its blood pupils instantly burst out with blood-like light, which stung people's eyes.

"Be careful, don't come in yet." Lan Wu waved his hand to prevent Gross and the others from entering the room.

The Dark Wanderers are too strange and powerful to not be prepared for in advance. If you come in rashly, you might get caught in one fell swoop. Before figuring out the layout of this room, the best way is to let the three of them stay outside temporarily.

"You disappoint me." The Dark Wanderer shook his head, his hoarse voice filled with strong disappointment.

Lan Wu only found it funny. I am a pure human being and have nothing to do with demons. Being able to disappoint Diavolo would be great news for mankind.

"I gave you a sleeping Nephalem woman, but you didn't get any benefit." The Dark Wanderer's tone became more intense, and it sounded like he hated iron.

"Nephalem?" Lan Wu had a strange expression. This is obviously a racial name. But how had he heard of such a weird race?

"Let's go. You haven't met my requirements yet." The Dark Wanderer slowly turned around, his intention to see the guest off was very obvious.

"Ah bah." Lan Wu laughed angrily and spat Xing Zi at the back of the Dark Wanderer. At first glance, it sounds like this demon god really doesn't take humans seriously. What does it mean that it has not yet met its requirements? Do you really think that humans are livestock raised by demons?

"Do it." Lan Wu didn't care whether the Dark Wanderer was showing off or not, he roared deeply and slapped the magic circle hard. In an instant, the magic circle flashed violently. Obviously this blow shook the magic circle.

Just as Lan Wu took action, Gross and the other three also used their skills to break into the room.

Almost at the same time, Gross's fireball and the bone spear sent by Irene passed over the sides of Lan Wu's huge body after transforming into a bear man, and shot straight into the center of the magic circle.

As a mage, Gross's understanding of magic circles is not weak. He could tell at a glance that the energy source of this magic circle was the ancient staff standing in the center of the magic circle.

And Erin is easy to understand. The entire room except for the Dark Wanderer, that is, the unknown staff standing in the center of the magic circle is a suitable target. She simply avoided attacking the Dark Wanderer and wanted to contribute a little strength to Lan Wu.

There was an explosion, and the fireball hit Horadric's staff. The fire and smoke instantly swallowed up the staff. Immediately afterwards, Irene's bone spear also accurately hit the staff. In an instant, the magic circle flashed rapidly for a few times, then dimmed. It was obvious that attacking Horadric's Staff had damaged the very foundation of the magic circle.

"You're too impatient." The Dark Wanderer shook his head and sighed, tapping his right foot lightly on a certain node on the magic circle. The magic circle that was originally so dim that it was about to lose its light was instantly resurrected, bursting out with an ominous gray-white light again.

The magic circle was stabilized again, and Lan Wu and others were shocked. This is no match at all. The gap between the two sides is really too big. Unless the Dark Wanderer can be defeated, it is impossible to break the seal. Did you stabilize the magic circle just by doing it casually without seeing anyone?

"Wait." Lanwu thought again and again, and raised his hand to stop Gross and Irene who wanted to continue attacking the Horadric Staff. Then he stood in front of the three of them and asked in a deep voice: "What exactly do you want to do?"

After a pause, he smiled self-deprecatingly and relaxed: "I believe that as long as you want, you can kill us at any time, or turn us into demons. But I guess I am right to you, or to you The devil still has a big role to play, so you won’t kill me, right?”

The Dark Wanderer didn't comment, just turned around again. The pair of bloody eyes under the hood clearly showed a bit more approval. Apparently he acquiesced to Lan Wu's words.

"Then don't hide it, tell me. Maybe I will be persuaded by you and cooperate with your actions." Lan Wu looked at the Dark Wanderer with a smile, and used his hands behind his back to create a concealment without leaving any trace. The gesture indicated that the three of them would wait for their signal before launching an attack together.

When the three of Olvera saw Lan Wu's gesture, they immediately spread out slightly in tacit agreement, creating a space where they could launch an attack at any time. Although Lan Wu didn't say the target, all three of them knew that the only target of the next attack would be the Horadric Staff.

"Okay, what do you want to know?" Dark Wanderer chuckled lowly: "To show my sincerity, I will answer all your questions."

"What race are the Nephalem?" Lan Wu immediately asked the first question in his mind. Claudia is the only one who has ever interacted with the Dark Wanderer. He was still very interested in getting some relevant information about his woman.

"Just like the little angel Tyrael created the Horadrim." The Dark Wanderer really gave the answer: "The little angel created the Horadrim to deal with me and my two brothers. He succeeded. The three of us were sealed in the Soul Stone by the Horadrim. But unfortunately, the little angel did not get the attention of heaven. The Soul Stone is not enough to seal the power of the demon. So I escaped, destroyed Tristram, and rescued my two brothers, Mephisto and Baal. In order to make up for his mistakes, the little angel completely destroyed me and my brothers and created another new race. This new race is the Nephalem."

"So that's it." Lan Wu suddenly realized and said with emotion: "It turns out that Claudia and Virgil are also the race created by the Archangel Tyrael."

The Dark Wanderer smiled but said nothing.

"You said before that you would give me a sleeping Nephalem woman. What do you mean?" Lan Wu's eyes were bright, and he did not avoid the bloody eyes of the Dark Wanderer at all.

"Because she is not a fully awakened Nephalem." The Dark Wanderer still did not hide it: "Nephalem is actually an awakened human. However, due to some reasons, there are very few such people. The little angel consumed almost all of his magic power, and only allowed six people to complete the awakening. That woman is the Nephalem who has obtained the inheritance. But she has not yet fully awakened."

After a pause, the Dark Wanderer smiled evilly and said in a seductive tone: "By the way, I will give you a message. Until now, he has barely recovered 60% of his magic power. So he dare not face the devil directly, and will only let humans attack the devil."

"You say I believe it?" Lan Wu curled his lips and was very disapproving. To believe the devil's words is to jump into the big pit dug by the devil. God knows when you will be pitted to death.

"Believe it or not." The Dark Wanderer did not care, and continued to laugh: "At the beginning, that woman thought she could hide her own breath to deceive me, but unfortunately I am not so incompetent. I saw through her identity, so I will give you a good gift by the way."

"What do you mean?" Lan Wu pricked up his ears. Here is the key point.

"I thought you could get the mysterious magic of Nephalem awakening from her body. But unfortunately, you let me down." The Dark Wanderer shook his head and sighed, indescribably disappointed: "You are still an ordinary human, no different from those other ants. The only thing that makes me value you is the potential in your body."

"So you originally planned to make me awaken and become a Nephalem?" Lan Wu looked strange.

The Dark Wanderer did not comment, neither admitting nor denying. He laughed and said, "Go away, I will come to you when you meet my requirements."

"Wait." Lan Wu smiled and said, "I still have questions to ask. For example, what's the matter with this Horadric Staff? I remember clearly giving it to Jerhain for collection, how did it end up in your hands again?"

"If you live as long as I do, you will also collect some nice gadgets." The Dark Wanderer slowly turned around, obviously not wanting to continue the conversation.

"Since you have the Staff of Horadric, why did you let Duriel snatch the one in Jerhain's hand?" Lan Wu was unwilling to miss the opportunity to face the Great Demon God Diablo, and shouted directly.

"If you are a ruler. You will also consciously arrange some seemingly difficult tasks for your subordinates. This will make your rule easier." The Dark Wanderer did not hide his intentions.

Lan Wu laughed dumbly. It turned out that Duriel tried his best to snatch the Staff of Horadric, but the big boss just wanted to create a little trouble for his subordinates and consolidate his position. It seems that after experiencing the fate of being exiled, Diablo has become more cautious.

"Duriel is so pitiful." Lan Wu sighed sincerely. It's not easy to be a younger brother with such a boss. If Duriel knows the truth, he might really join forces with other demon kings to exile Diablo again.

Oh, wait, it seems to be very interesting.

Lan Wu thought that the three demon brothers were exiled from this world by the four demon kings again, which would be very interesting. After being exiled by his subordinates twice in a row, Diablo might just start a killing spree and kill these four ambitious younger brothers.

"Before I change my mind, leave." The Dark Wanderer issued an order to expel him again.

"Wait." Lan Wu took a step forward and smiled embarrassedly: "One last question. Why do you plan to awaken me? Is it related to the World Stone?"

The Dark Wanderer did not answer this question. Lan Wu smiled and made a gesture to the three people behind him without leaving a trace, and teased with a grin: "Did I guess it right?"

As soon as the last word came out, Lan Wu quickly transformed into a bear man, fiercely leaped out, and rushed straight to the Horadric Staff standing in the center of the magic circle.

Almost at the same time, Olvera flashed into the room and immediately sent out a frost nova, instantly covering the Dark Wanderer with a thin layer of frost.

Gross and Irene also attacked at the same time. Fireballs and bone spears shot out, aiming directly at the top of the Horadric Staff, hoping to loosen the Horadric Staff so that Lan Wu could pull it out more easily.

The four of them jumped up at the same time. They coordinated in a short moment. When the Dark Wanderer noticed it, he had already been frozen, and his reaction was a little slow.

There was a muffled sound, and the room shook slightly. Lan Wu lay on the ground in a panic and quickly stuffed the Horadric Staff into the space bag. Without the Horadric Staff, the magic circle dimmed instantly.

In an instant, the four of them felt the familiar magic power re-emerge in their bodies.
