Demon King, Don’t Run Away Chapter 1205: Turn off the lights!
It is dark and vast. The nearby scenery can be illuminated by the flash of light coming from the passage, but the distant scenery can only be completely indulged in darkness.
Yang Yu had no way of judging whether the city was originally so dark, or whether the Curse Sect turned off the lighting facilities in the entire city after noticing their change of strategy.
If it was the latter, a little light would be enough to reveal Yang Yu's position, and Yang Yu and the others had no way of locking the place where the Curse Sect used to summon demons in the darkness.
Sweeping towards the empty streets, Yang Yu intuitively told Yang Yu that the current environment must have been created by the Curse Sect.
"They are really capable and their responses are really quick. It seems that they have thought about the follow-up countermeasures from the beginning."
The surprise attack should have taken them by surprise. Although they bought some time, they would soon catch up and stop them.
Yang Yu immediately organized his troops to pass through the barrier, spread out teleportation scrolls on a flat area, and arranged portable teleportation points.
On the other side of the mountain, Lotkar explained the next battle plan to everyone present. The magician confirmed that the portable teleportation point was deployed, and continuously transported the remaining people into the barrier to complete the rendezvous with Yang Yu and the others.
Instructing the troops to quickly organize their teams so that they can enter the battle at any time, Yang Yu walked to Ias and wanted to ask her if she had the ability to light up the entire underground city.
Before he spoke, a girl wearing a checkered robe suddenly appeared in Yang Yu's mind.
——Kokaros, a disciple of the cursed sect.
That was a girl who was extremely good at enchantment. Her enchantment that could restore everything to its original state within a certain range still remains fresh in Yang Yu's memory.
On the island where the Goblin Emperor once occupied, there is a barrier that can distort the surrounding scenery. If you are not very close, it is difficult to detect the existence of the barrier.
The barrier used by the cursed sect's stronghold is even more exaggerated. It even mimics the appearance of stones, and ordinary people cannot detect it even if they get close.
If Yang Yu were Coconuts, the first thing he would think about when encountering this situation would be how to completely hide the really important things.
Even if the entire underground city is illuminated, it may not be possible to quickly find the location where the cursed sect holds its ceremony.
Thinking of this, Yang Yu still found Ias:
"Ias, this city is about half smaller than the capital of Luoze we visited before.
Can you shoot a light arrow into the sky and continuously light up the city? ”
Ias sighed: "This is really difficult...
If the [Holy Light Catalyst Stone] is still there, it can amplify the power of my holy light, so I might give it a try.
But that thing has been returned to them according to your request in order to communicate with the Goddess Cult. ”
Speaking of which, it seems that I have indeed taken such a prop before.
What a pity...that is a sacred object of the Goddess Cult after all.
In order to expose the succubus's conspiracy and unite with the Goddess Cult, Yang Yu did tell Ias to return the thing if the Goddess Cult came to her door.
At that time, even if Yang Yu and the others were unwilling to return it, the Goddess Sect would definitely ask for it again and again.
Returning it proactively is more gentlemanly and can leave a good impression on the Goddess Cult. It will also be easier to ask them if you need anything in the future.
At that time, Yang Yu felt that anyway, if there was a mission involving the Goddess Cult in the future for a treasure like that, there should be a chance to get it back, so just return it.
Now finally comes the task involving the Goddess Cult...
As a result, I was so busy that I didn't think of it at the first time.
Yang Yu rubbed his temples in distress.
If it were him in the past, he would have demanded various rewards from various forces by defeating the Curse Sect, and then he would easily think of that treasure...
But...he is now...
No, it should have nothing to do with this. It doesn’t matter how much you get paid when it’s all over.
That was Yang Yu’s plan from the beginning.
Before everything has settled, it is somewhat inappropriate to ask for remuneration from all parties.
There may be other reasons why I didn't immediately recall the root cause of the incident.
In fact, Yang Yu already secretly knew the reason.
The day when the devil came is coming soon, and he has become a little more impatient without knowing it.
Summoning the messengers, Yang Yu connected with Wusi Geer and informed Wu Si Geer of their current situation. He hoped that the Goddess Cult would be more generous. Since the Goddess Cult is now deploying reinforcements, they can use the Bringing along a copy of the artifact he got, Yang Yu specifically named the [Holy Light Catalyst Stone].
Now we can only hope that it is not too late to remedy the situation.
[Holy Light Catalyst Stone] is indeed a rare artifact for Ias, but that artifact is not enough for Yang Yu to send them home and start their plan from scratch.
If they were eager for strong combat power, Yang Yu and the others would not stand here now, but would wait outside the mountain for a hundred and eighty years.
After concluding the conversation with Wusi Geer, Yang Yu asked Ias the maximum range that could be illuminated. Although it was not enough to illuminate the entire city, it could barely illuminate one third of the city, which should still be possible.
After receiving the answer, Yang Yu asked Ias again:
"Speaking of which, you seemed to be able to feel the obvious darkness before. When you were in the [Palace of Wisdom], you noticed Ammon's existence before you even reached the last floor.
Besides... there were several times.
Your ability hasn't disappeared, has it?
Can you feel the darkness here? ”
"It should still be there..." Ias pouted and thought about it for a while, then continued: "In the past, because I didn't know how to use the holy light, I was so scared by the darkness that I shivered.
Now through unremitting efforts, I have mastered part of the Holy Light. There is no longer any fear when facing the darkness.
When I was outside, I felt nothing special because I was surrounded by black mist and everything was dark.
Although the city is surrounded by black, the black is no different from ordinary night.
I should be able to discern the true darkness hiding within all this blackness.
However, the range of discrimination should not be very large. ”
"If it's true what you said, that would be great."
Yang Yu glanced at the gathered troops, quickly flipped through his inventory, and found some interesting things.
"So, do you still need holy light illumination? I can give it a try."
Yang Yu smiled slightly at Ias and said: "No need for the time being, because I suddenly thought of a better way.
Not even for your ability to sense darkness.
Let your holy light be used to illuminate our path forward! ”
Ias tilted her head, wondering what weird idea Yang Yu suddenly thought of.
At this moment, Yang Yu handed something like a pipe to Ias.
