She Is Not a Witch Chapter 112: Mercury Ruins
That night, while Lorraine Hill and Charlene were attending the banquet in the castle.
"Who are you...?"
Under the dim candlelight, Lottie looked at the person who suddenly appeared in front of her. He was wearing dark clothes that were easy to hide. If he stood in the crowd, he looked like an ordinary passerby, but this suddenly The extraordinary ability that appeared showed that this person was no ordinary person.
"I am a servant serving the Pascal family. I have met Miss Charlanot." His voice was low and restrained, and he half-kneeled in front of Lottie.
"You..." Lottie looked at the man who suddenly called out her real name in surprise, feeling flustered.
Seeing this servant of the Baska family who suddenly came to him, Lottie was not surprised, but rather disturbed. This stemmed from the brutal struggle between the remnants of the Baska family and the imperial family in recent years.
"Are you really a descendant of a vassal serving the Baskar family? Why I never knew about it before." Lottie looked at the man in front of him. He probably has the strength of Sequence 5, and it can be said that he is a rare master .
"This is because when the Baska family was destroyed, the young lady was still underage, and you have not fully learned of many family secrets and inheritances. This has caused the current situation." He replied respectfully.
"Although the Baska family is being persecuted by the empire, I believe that as long as Miss Charlanot is around, many scattered forces will gather again."
"Gather...." Lottie bit her lips, a little hesitant and uneasy, but as a descendant of the Dragon of Doom, she couldn't easily say the words of giving up, those who died in front of her Her family made it impossible for her to escape.
"However, what can we do now? It's too late. The family's legion has been exhausted, and the nobles loyal to us have been hunted down, imprisoned, and cleared. There is no longer any soil for our family to survive here." Lottie shook her head.
"No, there are still some, everyone is hiding in the dark."
"Although the empire has sent many investigators and patrols to hunt them down, we still retain some strength. You have to believe in the details left by the Dragon of Doom in the southern border for hundreds of years. We still have many hidden clues. "
"As long as you are willing to stand up and call out your identity, those fighters will come out of the mountains, river valleys, and the market to join us."
"Perhaps you don't know, on the day the empire decided to abandon the Baskar family, we were making various preparations, and the family even moved a lot of wealth and treasures to a safe place in advance." The assassin-like The man faintly reminded.
"Alas..." Lottie sighed without saying a word, sitting on the wooden chair under the bed, looking at the starry sky outside the window.
There was a brief silence in the room, and the man didn't urge him any more, and just stood quietly by the side.
After a long time, Lottie stood up. She found a pen and paper, and was about to leave a letter, telling Messia that she was leaving.
[I'm very sorry, sister Mesia, please forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye...]
Under the quiet candlelight, the metal pen tip scratches across the paper, making a rustling sound, and the black ink draws arcs and tracks one after another on the yellowed paper, until the end, in a long and long stroke The arc ends.
After finishing writing, Lottie pressed the paper on the table with a candlestick so that Lorraine Hill could see it when he came back. After doing all this, she simply packed up her things, and then put the black long sword on the table, before she felt relieved.
"Let's go."
"Yes, Miss." Soon the two disappeared into the night.
————————
The flames are crackling, bursting out small sparks from time to time, this torch soaked in pine oil illuminates the forest in the dark night, and grows into a long dragon in the night.
As the destination arrived, Viscount Morrow asked the guards to set up a brazier and then stood guard outside.
"This is where the relics of the past are buried." Viscount Mo Ruo stood under a rock and simply waved his hand. A hidden floor door.
"It's here?" Surprised whispers came from the crowd.
"I've lived here for decades and haven't heard of it. It's good that the Viscount keeps it a secret."
"I'm looking forward to it."
Seeing the opening of the underground passage, Viscount Mo Ruo turned around and said to everyone: "First of all, we must open the closed restriction. This process may take some time and requires the assistance of all high-sequence transcendents."
"Also ask the Transcendents above Sequence 4 to take a step forward and follow me into the underground."
After he finished speaking, he looked at several people in the arena, and the most eye-catching one was the oriental swordsman, Yan Liuyan.
"Haha, it's my duty to wait." After speaking, the strong man stepped out.
"The adults in the army are also please." Viscount Mo Ruo looked at the officers in the field with a complicated expression. Although these people are also helping, he really doesn't want to see soldiers, because these are likely to cause accidents. For example, taking sacred objects as their own, or withholding them.
"Yes." After finishing speaking, several officers in red with swords also walked out of the queue, looking at the underground passage in front of them.
"Finally, I have to trouble a few powerful guests." At this time, Viscount Moruo's mood improved a little.
At least these mercenaries and adventurers are very good at handling, even if they get the holy object, he can still **** it from it.
"Then let's go in first. In addition, please invite the friends outside to wait together." After speaking, he took the lantern and led the people down the long stairs, leading to a dark place.
Walking in the winding passage for about ten minutes, the walls in the passage were first constructed from relatively new modern structures, and gradually turned into dilapidated and ancient stone walls. There were no collapsed steps or broken stones on the ground. It does not explain how old and long the place is.
Finally, everyone stopped in front of a gray mottled stone wall.
There are skull heads, wisteria-wrapped moons and other symbols of the Mercury Dynasty on the walls. At this time, everyone also felt a cold magic power sinking here, making people feel cold.
Feeling the familiar magic power of the undead, Lorraine Hill thought, if the sequence of the undead can be restored, it is estimated that the strength here will be greatly increased. But in order to keep it secret, she still has to continue to maintain the identity of the war sequence at this moment.
"This is here. Although there is a prohibition protection, our family has studied it for nearly a hundred years and understood the mechanism of its function."
"So, as long as you follow my command and break the protective restriction at the critical moment, you can enter." A girl with a hood.
After nodding slightly, Viscount Moruo asked people to disperse, and then began to explain the main points and timing of the attack, as well as how to allocate it.
After straightening it out, he first stood in front of the open space in front of the stone gate, and once again put his hand into the restricted range, a slight ripple swayed by his hand, and then he felt that the energy in his life was being absorbed.
"It's now." He let out a low voice, and then Yan Liuyan slashed off and draped it on a corner facing the wall. The scorching magic power penetrated into it, and even melted part of the surface, turning it into a cloudy crystal.
Seeing this, Viscount Mo Ruo stretched out his hand again and felt it carefully. In this way, several people took turns to use magic power to attack, and finally unlocked the key switch, so that the prohibition circle that had been running for thousands of years slowly stopped.
"Phew, it's solved." An adventurer of Sequence 4 sat aside panting, using high-power skills continuously, which had consumed most of his mana, and now he had no energy to go further.
The prohibition circle was successfully released without triggering the reaction device, which greatly relieved Viscount Moruo,
The next step is to open the door. He thought, and then took out a small oval bottle from the inner pocket of his clothes, which contained intoxicating bright red blood, shining brightly under the light of the torch.
Standing in front of everyone, he slowly poured the crimson liquid down, and then the skull on the wall started to move.
With the sound of turning, the mechanism slowly pushed away the dusty stone wall, and then a gust of cold air swept over, making people feel chilled.
The air seemed to smell of damp stone powder, and then everyone saw a dark red and rusty world in front of them.
A guard carefully poked into it with a torch, illuminating the surroundings. The hall was full of collapsed shelves and fragments of wooden boxes. , can't tell what the past looks like.
In such a situation, can treasures be left behind? The originally high-spirited people became silent, as if they had been tricked.
"Now, I have to trouble those who can move down with me." Mo Ruo glanced at the current situation, and then invited the remaining Sequence 5 transcendents.
"Hmph." Looking at the situation in the hall, a non-commissioned officer snorted, expressing his dissatisfaction.
It's a pity that Viscount Mo Ruo didn't care, but continued to invite.
"There may be other things below, I think if there is something that can resist the erosion of time, it must be something amazing."
"Since we're all here, I deserve you to go on." Yan Liuyan shook his head, and then followed Sheng.
The other people in the underground space looked at each other and thought of their own ideas.
"I'll just wait here. Go down and assist Viscount Moruo." The officer in red stood at the entrance with his arms folded, looking around at the wreckage and the murals on the wall.
"Yes, Lord Widwin." After speaking, the three military Sequence 5s stepped forward and stepped into the deep underground.
"Miss Mesia is going?" He turned his head after he ordered, and looked at the **** the side. He hadn't given up on his previous plan and wanted to get acquainted with this beautiful lady.
"Well, since I promised, I still have to go." Lorraine Hill said, and then glanced, she needed a weapon.
At the banquet in the middle of the night, she was not like those officers who carried a sword with them. Although it is not difficult to remove a handful from the storage space, it will expose too much.
"Miss Messia is looking for weapons." Before Charlene beside Lorraine could react, Widwin guessed what the girl was thinking, and it was also because he was a person who fought all the year round. Understand the importance of carrying weapons with you at critical moments.
"I lent this sword to Miss Mecia, and I hope you don't dislike it." As he spoke, he untied his saber and handed it over to Lorraine Hill.
"This... then thank you." Now is not the time to struggle, and Lorraine Hill did not refuse.
"As long as Miss Messia likes it, hehe." The officer in red also smiled as he said that, as if he was very satisfied with Messia's move to accept his long sword.
Shaking his head, not thinking about the weird meaning, Lorraine Hill drew out his sword and waved it briefly, then continued to enter.
Holding a torch, walking through the cold and dark passage, a long corridor appeared in front of you, and there were many rooms connected to both sides of the corridor, some of which were covered with black ash debris, which looked like a kind of Corrupted grains and grains, some are pieces of rust, it is estimated that weapons and blades were stored here before, and some rooms are clearly visible, only the special magic circle is engraved on the ground.
The girl who was familiar with the knowledge of the Mercury Dynasty recognized it at a glance. It was a kind of spirit summoning circle, which could attract ghosts or resurrect corpses into undead warriors. However, judging from its style and engraved patterns, it is estimated that this is the second generation of the dynasty - the howling magic circle, and the effect is not stable, requiring several wizards to jointly cast the spell.
According to the inheritance that Trinasha left her, such a spirit-calling circle at the end of the dynasty had already developed to the sixteenth generation - the Nether Ming Formation. A large number of corpses and ghosts can be summoned, but there are not so many high-quality corpses available at that time.
Passing through this room, Lorraine Hill continued to move forward. On the way, he saw the footprints just left in front of him, distributed among the gravel floors, and there were white marks of rummaging and chopping among them.
It seems that the people in front are very anxious.
The girl muttered silently in her heart, and then there was a sudden sound of fighting and screaming, which seemed to be the sound of a ghost wailing.
Well, this is also expected, after all, it is the relic of the Mercury Dynasty. It would be strange if there were no ghosts wandering around. Thinking of this, Lorraine Hill let go of his perception, filtered out irrelevant information, and walked forward quickly.
"Fire of Huilu·Knife Fourteen!"
Accompanied by a violent shout, Yan Liuyan leaped high, his figure turned and flickered in the dark space like a fright, and the Chiyan long knife in his hand galloped past like lightning, splitting the dead silence world.
The scorching hot blade seemed to be the natural enemy of ghosts. After the fiery blade slashed, several ghosts of Necronomicon Sequence 5 howled and turned into smoke and dust, gradually disappearing into the underground space.
The Viscount Mo Ruo, who was shrunk to the side, looked at the scene in front of him with cold sweat. He was almost attacked by the ghost just now, but fortunately, the oriental swordsman was not far away and rescued him.
"Thank you very much. When I go back later, I will definitely repay Mr. Yan Liuyan." After being attacked by the ghost, Mo Ruo woke up from the eager frenzy before, and no longer dared to act alone.
But the desire for power in my heart is getting heavier and heavier.
It would be great if I also have such a strong strength, such thoughts quietly surfaced, and then hid in the depths of my heart.
With the sound of ping-pong battles, everything about the underground ruins was slowly revealed, and everyone gradually approached the central area controlled by them.
At the same time, outside the ruins.
The forest shrouded in darkness is very quiet~IndoMTL.com~ Occasionally, there are a few hoots of gray forest owls in the forest.
A group of coerced guests filtered out the original anxiety, sitting under the torches and chatting with each other, telling the story of the rise of the Moruo family, and then guessing the future changes of the empire. If it weren't for the sudden action tonight, it would be rare for these people to get together to exchange information.
In the shadow of the forest where no one else can reach, a beautiful woman slowly emerges. She has a pair of lapis lazuli blue eyes and a long blue-black dress covering her body.
The woman sat on a horizontal branch, her lapis lazuli-like pupils looked at everything in the camp, and then a brown and white gray forest owl flapped its wings and landed beside her.
"...Really...I got it." She seemed to be able to understand the silent message conveyed by the bird beside her, and then bursts of brilliance flowed from her pupils.
"Finally found you, our lovely Star Witch, giggling."
The woman covered her lips lightly and smiled, and as her laughter became more and more exaggerated, the bright blue in her eyes became more and more intense.
