Chapter 239: The Crying Lich
On the other side, off the island. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ info time backwinds a bit.
Jascord had just sent off the Emerald Lady and the Mystic Sage, and was a little tired of resting under the guards of the members of the Tower of the Stars.
Rao is as powerful as Jace Coud, and in recent years he has become more and more powerless, and his old age has made him no longer the character who even the gods are afraid of three points.
There are many ways for mages to prolong their lives, Jaskod chose to use dragon blood potions to prolong his life, seriously calculated, he still has nearly a thousand years to live, but he feels very tired, if he can't let go of many things, he really wants to find a secluded place and sleep there forever.
As a young man, Jescord traveled extensively, and he once discussed with the cultivators of the East, when he was in the prime of life, and his mana and energy were at their peak.
At that time, I still felt that the 'cultivation of the truth first and the cultivation of the mind' promoted by the cultivators was a bit scoffing, and the cultivation of the mind had an egg use, could it make the power of the spells you release stronger?
Now he understood that longevity was torture for short-lived species, and that he would continue to suffer this torture unless he transformed into a lich that was gradually losing his feelings.
The Mystic Sage and the Jade Lady were still very young, and they were not even qualified to be his grandchildren compared to Jascord, so they did not have Jaskode's troubles for the time being, but were more worried about their own safety, and hurried back to their respective mage towers as soon as the matter here was over.
Of course, there is a stable heart, so that everyone knows that their boss has returned safely, and more importantly, the mage is very safe in his own mage tower, and no matter how powerful the foreign enemy comes, he can hold on until the reinforcements arrive.
Jascord didn't do the same as those two people, and I am afraid that there is a reason why he feels too tired, perhaps subconsciously he is looking forward to dying in a hearty battle one day.
In addition, there is another reason.
It wasn't the Demon Lord's business, he had already done that, and said that he was looking forward to seeing Nikolai's expression when he came to the Misty Forest.
Aside from this, Jescord always felt a little uneasy, as if something big had happened, and for the sake of safety, he decided to stay in the harbor, anyway, even if he consumed a lot, not everyone could pick up the hole.
Holding black tea, I drank it with a pair, and I didn't think about it but I didn't think about where the source of this uneasiness was, An Yizhi? No, even if this kid can cause trouble again, the demon lord who just got on the table should be honest for a few days.
As he pondered this, a teleportation beep rang in his ears, which must have come from the island's lich Tairold.
The bad feeling is getting stronger!
"Boss, Ann pointed out that the three of them are gone"
"Don't talk nonsense with me, how could three big living people disappear under the surveillance of the secret magic eye"
The island is full of secret eyes, this thing has the ability to see through invisibility, and it was also arranged by Jascord himself, there are still a lot of prohibitions on the island's mystery locks, you can't use teleportation spells, you can't fly, three big living people who walk on two legs, you can't tell me you can't see it?
The lich on the other side, Tyrod, was about to cry, and it was a rare sight that the lich could cry.
"It's really gone, I left the monitoring room for less than 5 minutes, and the video review can see them go into the desert, and then fight the giant antlion, and then they are gone, and there is no trace of them at the resurrection point"
I don't think I will be eaten by an antlion, right?
Being swallowed by the giant creatures on the island will not die immediately, there must always be a process of digestion, and even if the ability of Yi'an's finger is really eaten into his stomach, he can make a fuss, and the antlion dares to eat him before it is called death.
Sensing Location ......
Jescord is really cunning...... I mean, he was scheming, he left a small back hand on it when he sealed the Book of the Dead, and he could roughly detect where Ann's finger was by sensing the position before the seal failed. Originally, it was to prevent An Yizhi from messing around, but now it just happens to be used.
The plan of the island appeared in his mind, and then he saw a small bright spot in the location of the desert area flashing back and forth. This indicates that the subject is injured, but not in danger of life for the time being.
Injured? Could it really be eaten by an antlion? (Actually, he was broken by Elph and John)
Jace Cod wasn't going to make a move, nonsense, it was a trial, and he helped out to count a few meanings. That's too unfair to other candidates, it's good to let An Yizhi suffer a little, and save him from causing trouble all day long.
So he commanded the lich:
"Don't care, don't lose it, he's still on the island"
Tyrod responded with a laugh and a smile, and then hurriedly went out and rushed to the place where An Yizhi and the others disappeared.
Jace Cod doesn't care, he can't, you must know that the most famous part of Nikolai is that in addition to being crazy is protecting calves, this guy won't tell you anything like 'this is a trial, be fair to others', his philosophy is very simple, if something happens to my student under your surveillance, you have to be responsible for me!
I have to say that there is really no reason to talk about a madman, Billy and the others scared Tyrod enough when they attacked Ann Yizhi before, the Cooks family? Candle Castle? No matter how big the prestige is, Uncle Nikolai dares to throw it over without saying hello to 12 consecutive alchemy explosions.
We know that the sand has a very strong fluidity, no matter how quickly Tyrod rushes over, when he arrives at the place, in addition to seeing some of the remains of the corpse of the antlion, there is only endless yellow sand, and An Yizhi and the three of them don't even have a shadow.
With a gesture of his hand, the head of the giant antlion flew up, he looked at the wound on it, and found that the wound was covered with frost and marks torn by the great force, it can be imagined that the attacker first used the frost attack and detonated it from the inside of the antlion, which made the corpse so scattered.
"Sure enough, it's An Yizhi's handwriting, what about others?"
There are many mages who can play explosions, but on this island, only An Yizhi can play explosions and is good at alchemy.
Re-contacting the personnel in the monitoring room, the other party still did not find any trace of An Yizhi, and the lich thought about it for a while and then cast a spell:
"Otherworldly Creature Summoning: Sniffing Greyhound"
A strange vicious dog with only a dog's head and biological tissue, and only a skeleton in its body, jumped out of the portal, this is an undead creature from the undead plane, and its combat power can almost beat the lowest skeletons and zombies, but it can track its prey to the ends of the earth through a little residual magic trace, a veritable sniffing dog.
Letting it smell the remnants of the spell on the antlion's wound, the sniffer quickly found its target, and it galloped forward with its head down, looking in the direction of the beach.
Is it out of the island? No, there are rapids around here, and ordinary boats can't approach them unless they've been specially refitted.
This is one of the reasons why John is so seasick, although it is more likely that this is too weak......
The lich was a little confused, but he still found An Yizhi as the top priority, and quickly used a flying spell to fly low and follow the sniffing dog.
About an hour laterβ
The lich finally found Ann Yizhi near the wooden house in the center of the island, and the latter was still dazed when he saw the lich.
However, Ann's business is over, but he has more important things to report to Jescord.
"Boss, something is wrong"
"What's wrong? What did Ann do with that kid? I remember that the biggest candidate in the background on the island is the one in the Candle Castle, and he provoked Candle Castle after provoking others? β
"No, it's bigger than that"
The lich looked at Ann Yizhi, who was holding a new staff, and really cried:
"Ann took away the core of the puzzle lock"
"Poof!"
Faintly, Tyrod heard the sound of his boss squirting tea......
ββββββββββ
Hairy? Isn't there still half of the plot process? What is he doing here?
An Yizhi was also puzzled, after they took the staff, it didn't take long for Hela to unlock Vaolek's code, and the three of them chose the closest exit to the wooden house in the center of the island through the magic elevator in the control room.
I have to say that Vaolek is really thoughtful, and he won't feel anything wrong when he comes out of the exit, thinking that it's a hole, but when he looks back, it's a huge stone, whether it's touching or attacking, it's a stone, and it's estimated that it can't be opened without a password or something like that.
Then they saw Tyrod, the lich covered in sunscreen and greasy.
"I've found you"
As soon as they met, the lich let out a sigh of relief, and then he noticed the well-shaped staff in Ann's hand.
As a lich who considered himself to be aesthetically promising, Tyrod recognized at a glance that the staff was not ordinary, even if it only emitted a faint magical aura of elite equipment.
However, he remembered that An Yizhi only had a magic dagger at his waist when he went to the island, when did he have an extra staff? Did you snatch it from some unlucky bastard?
The guy who can have such a staff, the backstage is generally not too bad, I have to say that the lich is still quite concerned about An Yizhi, he wants to persuade An Yizhi to return the staff, after all, more is better than less, besides, Nikolai is the strongest alchemy master in the mortal world, and you are afraid that there will be no good things to use as his student?
Who knows, as soon as he approached, the staff suddenly emitted a strong light that made the lich feel unpleasant, not to mention harmful, just unpleasant.
He also wondered why Ann attacked when he saw him, and then saw the staff change shape rapidly in the white light, and when the light dissipated, the staff became white all over, and the tears of the king at the top also turned into a dazzling golden yellow, and the crescent-shaped decoration changed to the shape of wings, which reminded him of the angels of Heavenly Mountain.
What's even more terrifying is that just now, it was clear that the magic aura was weak, only to the level of elite-level equipment, and now that strong magical aura almost blinded the lich's eyes, he dared to swear with the 208 bones on his body, it was definitely epic equipment!
"Ann, Ann, where did you get this staff?"
The latter, who was playing with the new mode of the staff with some surprise, said when he heard this:
"From the underground, in the dungeon of Vaolek"
"Vaolek?!"
The Lich also knew of the existence of Vaolek, one of the heroes who ended the scourge of the dead 13,000 years ago, and as a mage, those legendary predecessors were the objects of reverence for the younger generations.
Before he could ask the whole story, he only heard An Yizhi and said:
"By the way, this staff seems to be the core of the island's maze lock."
Tyrod: "......"
