Warlord of Chaos Chapter 306: Super Volcano
After walking through seven or eight corridors, there was finally no road ahead, but the middle-aged man named Courtini continued to walk forward, stopped in front of a tall wall, and stretched out his hand to push it away. The moss is half a foot thick, and it is gently tapped.
With a heavy twisting sound, the wall slowly rose up, and several female elves greeted them from inside, and their eyes fell on Han Jin, Jedis and Gail, but what did they say? Didn't say anything, just stepped aside.
"My lord, please follow me." After speaking, Courtini walked in first.
Han Jin, Jedis, and Manager Gail looked at each other and followed them. In the commanding tent of the Torrent Legion, Kourtini kept saying that he would hand over the gift prepared by Zaguned to them, including Han Jin, who were very curious about the mysterious gift. As for whether it was Alqui The possibility of an ad hoc trap is infinitely close to zero. Courtini is an old subordinate of Zagunede. He personally admitted that he had a falling out with Zagunede a long time ago. To put it bluntly, it is impossible for Arquette to win Courtini's loyalty in a short period of time.
What's more, Kourtini is also a human being, and with the few night elves who appeared just now, and what Guevara told them about Kourtini's past, Han Jin has no reason to doubt anything.
"The expressions of those elves are a bit bad. It seems that Zaguned's death has dealt a big blow to you." Jadis said softly.
"It's nothing." Courtini paused, and replied quietly in front of him: "Anyway...they will pay a heavy price for this."
"They? Are you referring to Arquette?" Jadis asked.
"No, I mean whoever it is!"
"We've been away for so long, where is the gift you mentioned?" Manager Gail's tone was full of gunpowder.
About four or five hundred meters away, the preface suddenly became clear, and a thick red light rushed towards the face. Looking forward, Han Jin and the other three all showed shocked expressions. In the middle of the plain, there is a huge and conical mountain peak. They are about twenty or thirty miles away from that mountain peak, but they need to look up to observe it. It is estimated that the height of that mountain peak has reached several thousand meters.
Compared with the huge mountain, everything around it seems so small. The jagged piles of rocks are like grains of sand, and the strange-shaped trees growing between the rocks are no different from moss, and they are ants walking among the gravel.
The strangest thing is that the upper half of the mountain is bright red, like a whole piece of red-hot soldering iron. And on the top of the mountain, twisted smoke rushed out in a ferocious posture, forming a giant technique with a radius of about a kilometer, and heading straight to the dome of the earth.
"What's that? A volcano?!" Gail murmured.
"My lord, don't go any further, the air here is full of poison and the temperature is very high, it will be dangerous." Kourtini said as he blessed himself with a magic shield, and then Slowly rose into the sky and flew towards the giant peak in the distance.
Director Gail knew that Courtini was not alarmist, so he retreated into the gap unwillingly, where he dared to take a deep breath.
Jedis also blessed himself with a magic shield and flew into the air. Han Jin turned his head and exchanged glances with Manager Gail, raised his sword light, and arrived first, passing Courtini and Jedis in an instant, and approaching the giant peak.
"My lord, it's dangerous...dangerous..." Courtini's call came faintly from behind.
Qingmang stopped there suddenly, and there was no need for Courtini to remind him, Han Jin had already sensed the pressure from the sword light.
After a while, Jedis and Kourtini also arrived. As the saying goes, looking at the mountain and running down the horse, this volcano gives people a completely different feeling when viewed from a distance and up close. Inside the huge crater, there is a piece of white hot lava tumbling non-stop, and suddenly a puff of mist is ejected, and the burst of sparks rolls hundreds of meters into the sky. The area of the crater is too large, almost every moment, hundreds of mist spray out, the overwhelming smoke column is formed in this way, and there is a deafening roar.
On the north side of the crater, there is a small gap, as if someone took a bite on a bagel. Every time the lava near the gap rolls, a small stream of magma will flow out along the gap and gather in the At the foot of the crater, there is a small pool of water. Of course, the smallness here is relative to the volcano, and finally formed a lava river, flowing slowly to the south.
"Not far from there, the lava river will split into two streams and then drill into the ground." Courtini pointed to the south.
"Two lava rivers? They both pass near the dungeon at the end, don't they?" Jedis said word by word. He often followed Nicholas. Although the combat experience could not be compared with Guevara, the gap was not very great. Seeing this huge volcano and thinking of Zaguned's gift, he immediately realized what Kourtini was going to do.
"Yes, my lord." Courtini smiled.
Jedis couldn't make a sound for a long time, and sighed after a long while: "It seems that our army is here... It's a little redundant. If you lure the lava out of the volcano, all the abyss except vampires The soldiers are all dead!"
"Vampire? That's not necessarily the case." Courtini's eyes drooped and fell on the ring on the little finger of his left hand. After a moment of silence, he took off the ring and threw his hand towards the crater.
Although Courtini is a dual cultivator, his own strength is limited after all. According to the trajectory drawn by the ring, he cannot fall into the crater at all. However, a shocking scene happened. The straight-line distance between the ring and the crater was still seven or eight hundred meters away. Suddenly, a puff of green smoke rose, and then the ring disappeared without a trace.
"I think the two adults have also noticed the color of the lava, hehe...the temperature here is frighteningly high, not to mention the blood race, even steel will turn into fly ash when it gets close to the crater." Courtini's finger To the foot of the volcano: "Look, there is very little lava flowing out of the gap, and the heat contained in the lava is easily lost in the air. Even so, the lava has always been white in color, and it didn't turn bright red until it flowed into the ground. .If we make the gap bigger and let the lava flow faster and more violently, I can guarantee that when the lava reaches the dungeon, it will still be white. Are the bodies of those vampires stronger than steel? Is it tough?"
"When did Zaguned discover this volcano?" Han Jin asked softly.
"Almost a year," Courtini replied.
"And you stayed here?"
"Yes." Courtini nodded and said: "My lord, you should know that this volcano poses a serious threat to the dungeon. If you come, you may not be able to save the fate of the dungeon."
"If Zaguned didn't die, this gift is for me, right?" Han Jin smiled faintly.
Courtini didn't know how to answer this question, so he could only lower his head.
"How do you guarantee that all the lava will flow out? What if it gets blocked in the underground channel?" Jadis asked.
"My lord, since you arrived in the abyss world, you should have seen many lava rivers, right? Why are there high cliffs on both sides of each lava river?" Courtini said with a smile: "Because lava can Corroded rock formations, the lava river naturally becomes lower and lower over time. In fact, the underground channel is much wider than we imagined, and there is no possibility of blockage at all, and Master Zaguned left a lot of darkness on the cave wall of the underground channel Seeds, as long as the seeds start to sprout, it won't take long for the cave wall to collapse."
"Collapse?"
"My lord, the impact of tens of thousands of catties of lava is unimaginable. The collapsed cave wall cannot block the river, but will increase the impact of the lava."
"Zaguned actually planted the seeds of darkness in the underground river, it seems that he has already prepared for this day." Jedis frowned: "Why?"
This time, Courtini was silent for quite a long time before replying: "My lord, maybe you don't believe that when Arquette just came to the dungeon, he suggested that he lead the blood race to attack the Lonely Cliff City , Lord Zaguned not only rejected his proposal, but also tried every means to obstruct Arquette."
"Isn't the growth of the dark forces just in line with Zaguned's wish?" Jedis said, "And you didn't answer my question, why?"
"I don't know either." Courtini shook his head, "I've always felt that Lord Zaguned is very wary of the abyssal race."
"Hehe...he's not too confused." Han Jin said lightly: "Courtini, do you still remember the order Zaguned gave you at that time?"
"Of course, that is... that is the last order of your lord." Courtini smiled wryly, with a gleam of sadness in his eyes. He has been restraining himself not to miss Zaguned, so as not to suffer from suspicion. After enduring it for so long, he can't control himself.
"You repeat."
"Master Zaguned seems to be a little unstable, and he said a lot of meaningless things, but I have always carried that order with me, sir, do you want to read it now?" Courtini said: " Then we have to go back, the temperature here is too high, I'm afraid it will turn into fly ash at once."
"No need." Han Jin pointed his sword, and the green light under his feet suddenly flourished, enveloping Kourtini inside, and the flickering light dyed the magic hood released by Kourtini blue. .
Courtini hurriedly took out the secret letter and handed it to Han Jin. Han Jin took the letter and read it carefully. Show it to the second person."
"Understood, my lord." Courtini heaved a sigh of relief. On the one hand, it was because Han Jin did not destroy the secret letter, which moved him a little. On the other hand, he didn’t need to express his opinion anymore. Zaguned made it very clear in the letter. He is also a high-level professional with his own dignity, and there are some things that he really can't say out loud.
"What was in the letter? I can't read it either?" Jadis asked curiously.
"It's nothing, what Zaguned wants to express is a bit confusing." Han Jin paused: "But... I think he has already noticed Arquette's change, so he gave an order, if he really shows up After all, Arquette double becomes the new lord of the dungeon, then people like Courtini will surrender to us and tell us the secret of the volcano.”
Jedis was silent for a moment: "When did Zaguned plant the seeds of darkness?"
"My lord, it's been almost three months."
"Master Raphael, have you already been to the dungeon at that time?" Jadis asked.
Han Jin nodded, and Kourtini continued: "Yes, the hexagram was already..." Before he finished speaking, he noticed a cold light in Han Jin's eyes, and he immediately understood that he was speechless, and hurriedly shut up.
"Six-pointed star array? What six-pointed star array?" Jedis showed a surprised look.
Kourtini is Zagunede's son, of course he knows what Han Jin did, but he also realized that Han Jin must have deliberately concealed what happened at that time. He said that he made a big mistake by leaking his mouth, and it was too late to repent in his heart, so how could he possibly answer Jadis' question?
Jedis pondered for a moment, and his eyes slowly turned to Han Jin.
Han Jin felt helpless for a while. With Jadis's intelligence, using other reasons to cover up his ears and steal the bell will hardly be effective. More importantly, he can lie to Jadis, but he cannot deliberately deceive Jadis. This is a completely different matter. Choosing the latter is likely to create a gap between the two people.
"I'll talk to you later." Han Jin said softly.
"Okay." Jadis said simply. Of course, he also understood that the six-pointed star array must be connected with Han Jin.
"Now, we should go back and inform Guevara that we are ready to retreat. Lava does not distinguish between friend and foe." Han Jin said.
On the way back, Han Jin asked Courtini many questions. For example, the number of abyss mages under him, the method of blasting the gap, and so on. It can only be said that the barriers of race are difficult to break. In Zaguned's "hooligan army", humans can always get along well with elves, because they all come from the ground, and their physical appearance is almost the same. Tentacle monsters to be friends with? The people that Zaguned allocated to Kourtini were either humans or elves, and there was not a single abyssal warrior. This also meant that what Zaguned could really believe was the ground race. In the end, he has no right to blame anyone for his betrayal, even he himself is secretly on guard, so why would Arquette really trust him and support him? !
After coming and going, it took almost half a day. The soldiers of the Torrent Legion had recovered their energy, while Guevara, Lang Ning and others gathered in the commander's tent to discuss how to launch an attack. The first sentence that Jin Jin said after entering the handsome tent left all the generals dumbfounded: "Get ready to retreat."
Lang Ning was stunned for a long time, and hurriedly asked: "My lord, retreat...why do we retreat?!"
"Jedis, please explain." Han Jin sat on the main seat, looked at the map in front of him, and shook his head. He still drew some places in this map, but it is useless now. If the lava contained in that giant volcano really flows out, the surrounding terrain will undergo earth-shaking changes, and the underground city will also be reduced to ruins.
Jedes said everything he saw and talked about at the time. Guevara's face changed again and again, and he could understand that when Zaguned first discovered the volcano, he was only worried about being used by the enemy; later Zaguned's thoughts changed, he did not have the confidence to fight against Hanjin, and the giant volcano became After using his ultimate move, Zaguned will definitely withdraw with his army and let the dungeon out in order to preserve his strength when it comes to a critical moment, and they may have just tasted the fruits of victory before being submerged in overwhelming lava; as for the order Courtini surrendered to them, which was just a contingency measure reserved after discovering that Arquette was a little abnormal.
Strictly speaking, the volcano is what Zaguned prepared for them!
"That guy...is still as vicious and cruel as before!" Guevara sighed. In fact, it wasn't just him, Han Jin also felt scared. Fortunately, he decided to sneak into the ground alone to contain Zaguned's army. Fortunately, he seized the opportunity to severely injure Zaguned, which caused a series of effects. Gunned was killed on the spot, otherwise, they would most likely fall into a trap. Facing the lava pouring in like a frenzy, he was able to escape, and Jedis and Yalena also had a chance to escape, but Guevara, Gail Juguan and others had absolutely no physiology, and Zaguned's poisonous plan was enough to destroy him. The power created by hard work!
Kourtini murmured for a while, obviously dissatisfied with Guevara's evaluation, so he finally shut up ~IndoMTL.com~ He has surrendered according to Zaguned's will A leader who never forgets can easily be criticized. Of course, he couldn't just leave Zaguned behind. Let's not talk about whether you can pass your own level. Doing so will definitely make people look down on you. The key lies in the word "degree", which can only be determined by yourself.
"If the war can be ended quickly, we...maybe be able to rush back to the Beitmeng before Yeliu City and Holy Crown City attack." Lang Ning said suddenly.
"Bite League no longer belongs to us." Han Jin smiled. He didn't want to say it at first, for fear of shaking everyone's fighting spirit, but the dungeon no longer poses any threat, and now his enemies are Dismark and the elves of Yehliu City!
"What??" Everyone was dumbfounded again.
"In other words, we are now homeless." Han Jin's tone was very indifferent: "But... we can go back to Black Crow City."
"So fast?!" Lang Ning exclaimed.
"Because the strength of Yehliu City is very powerful, far beyond your prior estimation." The God of War was his magic weapon. offensive.
