Advent of the Archmage Chapter 253: The artifact is scary, but it was defeated (4/4)
Othella canceled his combat skills, and the soul-eater's devouring serpent disappeared immediately.
Linke realized that the situation had changed, and once again brought everyone back to the basic aspect.
He happened to see Nana with a broken body, and more than 50 meters away, Osera fell to the ground with a penetrating blood hole in her forehead.
Strangely, this time, there was no black crystal covetous on Othella's body, and the black scent that was always lingering around her body was gone. The wound on her forehead did not heal, just so quietly. Lying on the ground, seems dead.
The dark snake in her hand is gone.
At this time, Felena also awakened. When she saw this scene, she said weakly: "The dragon clan has a legend, saying that the artifact has spirit, and it will choose its own master. If it is not satisfied with this master, it will abandon her. "
Kano said: "She was defeated by the puppet, and the artifact is not satisfied with her?"
It seems that this can only be explained.
Linke walked to Nana's wreckage. How powerful was the artifact, Nana's body was completely broken, and only one head was still intact, but her head was not intact, and there were still many cracks on it. The only thing that was complete was the big, pure eyes.
"She's here for us." Annie came up, sad.
With regret and gratitude in his heart, Link carefully received these wreckages into the space pendant, and then turned to everyone: "At present, we are safe, but we cannot stay here for a long time. Let's go."
The people were all scarred. At this time, they supported each other. Link used a little magic energy to release a level 4 stealth magic without trace, and the group walked slowly to the south.
This time, no accidents happened. A day later, Link and others met a team of MI3 scouts in the forest, and everyone was relieved.
A message appears in Link's vision.
Complete the fourth step of the bone dwelling series mission: escape.
Player Free Credits +200 (delivered after 60 days)
Player gets a level 7 soul inscription (delivered after 60 days)
This harvest surprises Link a little bit. This delayed delivery method is a bit intoxicating.
The scouts escorted Link all the way. One day later, everyone walked out of the Black Forest, and a huge war fortress appeared in front of them.
The ice spikes are here.
Standing at the door and watching the suspension bridge slowly land, Link was almost full of the sense of happiness in the rest of the disaster.
Turning to see Kanosh, Kanosh seems to be feeling. He is also turning to look at him. After seeing Link's gaze, he murmured: "Magic, you owe me a sword."
Linke laughed: "Then you have to go to the king to pay you the bill first. I can tailor a sword for you, but the price is more than 10,000 gold coins."
Kano Xiu smiled bitterly: "It's a vampire ... otherwise, I'll sell it to you, and offset the account."
"I'm welcome," Link said with a smile.
Both laughed.
Felena on the other side also turned around and said to Link: "Master, when are you free to come to Dragon Valley. The work of the dark artifact is not over yet, we need your advice."
Linke thought for a while and said, "After a month, after I return to the south, I need to cultivate for a while."
He must find a way to repair Nana. This puppet is so powerful that it is a pity not to repair it.
Felena nodded in understanding. During this trip to Blast Castle, she survived several times, and even the dragon claw weapon was abolished. Return to its heyday.
At this time, the suspension bridge was lowered. Behind the door, the Duke of Abel, various senior officers, and the magician Mark were waiting. After seeing the crowd, they strode up.
The Duke of Abel searched in the crowd, and when he saw his daughter, the lines of the entire face softened. He walked in front of Link and bowed slightly: "Master, you work hard It's over. "
Linke returned to mage ceremony: "This is what I should do, Lord Duke, I have made a lot of discoveries during this trip to the north. I will make a complete military report."
"Inside please!" Duke Abel said excitedly, this is the first-hand information about the dark elves, but also from a wise wizard, the reference value is great.
A group of people entered the fortress. The soldiers in the fortress saw the return of Dawn Excalibur with an inspiring smile on their faces. Every now and then someone cheered Kanosu.
As for the Red Dragon Female Warrior, each warrior did not feel frightened and rejected, but looked curiously.
For soldiers, as long as the dawn sword is in, then it doesn't matter if the sky falls, let alone a strange warrior.
Linke looked at this scene, and couldn't help but lament Kanoshu's great popularity in the army, this guy has the position of God of War in the army.
It is no wonder that the Duke Abel must insist on sending out a search and rescue team under extremely difficult circumstances.
When he arrived at the command hall in the fortress, Link didn't delay at all, and he went through all the experiences of this northbound trip.
Dark, Bone Citadel, Dark Artifact Holder Osera, etc. all made it clear. Finally, Link also introduced Felena's identity.
Linke's description is very objective, especially for the strength of each opponent he encountered, he made a detailed evaluation, and when he finished, the entire command hall fell into silence.
Everyone was shocked by two facts.
First, it's no wonder that the Dark Elves can create such a terrible creature as a Dark Ghost, even if they have Dark Artifacts. This is simply horrible!
Second, the magician Link was able to rescue Kano Xiu from the artifact holder. In the end, he not only escaped the hunt of the artifact holder, but his devil also killed the opponent.
This is equivalent to the power of mortals against God, and they have won. If it did not happen, no one would believe it!
In this way, the artifact is not terrible because it has been defeated once.
For a long time, the Duke of Abel said, "Master, as you said, the dark artifact is missing. What do you think is the most likely thing to happen?"
Although a young man under the age of 20 is in front of him, the attitude of the Duke of Abel has become very respectful, almost humble, for no reason, the magician's record is too bad.
Linke is also thinking about it all the way, and has already made a rough conjecture, he said, "I think that the artifact should just disappear temporarily, but its threat is still there. I think, after a period of time, it must be Will choose the second holder. And after learning the lesson this time, the second artifact holder will be more stable, smarter, and more terrible. Faced with such a dark elf, the Black Forest is no longer safe. I The suggestion is to give up the ice spikes and retreat to the southern Orida fortress .... "
"This can't solve the fundamental problem, we should destroy ..." A middle-ranking officer is a little bit dissatisfied. For soldiers, destroying artifacts is the most thorough way.
After he didn't finish, the Duke of Abel sank, and whispered, "Stop, listen to the master!"
The officer's face turned white and he shut up immediately.
Linke is not angry, and continues: "I think you need to know two facts. First, the artifact cannot be destroyed. Second, the artifact cannot exist in the world for a long time. Every minute and every second will cost you. Energy. "
At this point, he looked around at the people in the lobby and saw that everyone was listening carefully, and he continued: "The iron wall defense headed by the Orida fortress has been in operation for 300 years and is very strong. .In my observation, as long as it is held for a year at most, the artifact of the dark elves will be expelled from the Ferroman plane, and the advantages of the dark elves will automatically disintegrate. I think this is the most secure strategy at present.
Everybody was lost in thought in the lobby.
Linker is very clear. The strategy he said is indeed the most secure. In the face of artifacts, no one dares to say that he can win, but with one mistake, the entire Norton kingdom will fall into horror. abyss.
Suddenly, it was Kano Xiu, who stood up and said, "I saw the power of my artifact with my own eyes, so I agree with Master Link's approach. The sharp ice fortress was temporarily established, and the magic resistance of the wall The military facilities such as sex, detection eyes and so on are far from the iron wall defense line, and it is difficult for us to keep here. "
Annie also said, "I also think that retreat is the right decision."
Everyone in the lobby started a head-to-head discussion. After ten minutes, the Duke of Abel pressed his hand and stopped the discussion. He said: "I will think carefully, but the army of 100,000 people will not retreat for a while. This need to be carefully arranged. Moreover, this matter will ultimately require the consent of His Majesty the King. "
Although it is considered, the Duke of Abel has been convinced, and he does not have any confidence in facing the artifact.
Here, this interim military report is over. Link and everyone say goodbye, and then follow the wizard Mark to the magic sentry tower.
On the road, the magician Mark said: "Master, we have carefully studied the power of the ghosts, and the Holy Silver you brought out is indeed very effective, but I find that there is still room for improvement."
Linke nodded and smiled: "I'm not very proficient in alchemy, I will stay in the fortress for two days. Then I will go to the East Valley College. In these two days, we can discuss carefully How to deal with these ghosts. "
The Dark Serpent has a soul-swallowing feat. Even if the army retreats to the Orida Fortress, it is not safe. He must return to Donggu and the magicians to discuss a strategy to deal with it.
Mark was pleasantly surprised: "That couldn't be better."
...............
Two days ago, North, Black Forest.
A half hour after Link left, a black-haired man with white hair and white eyes came to a messy battlefield.
He is the magician Emmons.
Looking at Othra's body on the ground, he sighed: "You are too disappointed to Madam Dark. The artifact is related to my destiny. It is not to vent your anger, you can go with peace of mind."
Squatting down, and gently closing Osela's eyes, Emmons stood up and said to the surrounding woods, "Come out, the dark snake."
‘Wow, wow’, The sound of grass and trees rolling, a large snake came out of a bush.
Amons stretched out his hand. The snake hit his arm and turned into a snake's head whip. Amons took it slowly into the deep forest and said, , I will definitely find a qualified puppet for you. What do you think of my disciple Rodel? "
"His ~" The snake nodded his head and shook his head again.
Amons sighed, "He is indeed the best candidate, but once you lean over, you only have half a year of life. It's a pity, let's change it ... let me think, What about Mudhafi? "
The snake whip still shakes its head.
"Is Mudhafi bad? This is a headache, otherwise, I'll find some volunteers, and you choose?"
"His ~" The snake tapped slightly and agreed. (To be continued.)
