"Whoosh-"

A rain of arrows shot out, and a torrential rain appeared in the ancient passage.

The scarlet eyes went out one by one, and the wails became more and more intense, even if the low roar became stronger and stronger, and the distance between them in the face of Kant was getting closer and closer, but the decline of defeat was becoming more and more obvious.

Even the mage apprentices did not choose to unleash the precious spells.

The battle is decided.

30 days later, the last demonized lion fell to the ground.

There were 2 cone-headed arrows in the eye socket, and the center of the eyebrows was pierced by 1 steel crossbow arrow.

The offensive from the ancient passage ended again.

Even though these demonic creatures rushed in droves, almost madly, they all fell under the rain of arrows, throwing their lives on this straight stone road.

The thick smell of blood mixed with the putrid stench of corpses permeated the air.

Kant couldn't help frowning slightly.

The golden light of the solar disc outside was dim, and it could not reach the inside of the passage at all.

Then he opened his mouth and instructed Bandak beside him: "Arrange for someone to prepare torches, and hang them directly inside this ruin after lighting them, the environment is too dark, and it will affect our vision." ”

"Understood." Bandak nodded, and immediately stepped back, arranging for someone to properly make the torches.

Actually, there is no need to make it.

Even in the village, there are rudimentary torches made for night patrols.

The sticks were tied with strips of cloth and carefully tied, soaked in flammable animal naivety, and could burn as long as they touched the sparks, and according to the burning speed of the torches, there was no problem at all for nearly half an hour.

50 torches were transported to the ruins.

"Ignite."

Kant waved his hand and directly ordered the torch to be lit.

As the flint struck the spark, 20 torches immediately burst into flames, with the scorching smell of burning grease, releasing black smoke and illuminating the surrounding area of more than ten meters.

"Lord Kant, are we going to enter the ancient passage?"

Bandak watched the torch light and asked.

"That's right." Kant nodded.

"But it's going to be dangerous." Bandak's face was slightly stunned, and he hurriedly dissuaded: "I don't know how many demonic creatures there are in the ancient passage, and we haven't gone in to explore yet, if we encounter danger, we will inevitably be caught off guard, I think it's best to send a few brave soldiers in to explore first." ”

He made a lot of sense, and it can be said that the safety factor is very high.

Being Kant does not need to explore on your own.

He's a lord.

Kant, however, chuckled lightly and said calmly, "There will be no danger." ”

"This..."Bandak was not good at words, and for a while he had some strong words against Kant, and he had no idea of refuting it, but only really dissuaded: "My lord, it is really dangerous. ”

"That's what James advised me when I first discovered the Cave of Evil."

Kant chuckled and patted Bandak's shoulder: "But it's not the same now, it's alive and well." ”

The face is slightly condensed.

Kant pulled out the knight's sword at his waist and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, follow me into this ancient passage, report any abnormal situation immediately, and if you encounter danger to your life, you can fight back by yourself!" ”

"Understood!" The many soldiers behind him also responded in a deep voice.

"This—" Bandak's face was stunned.

But seeing that his lord had already decided, he sighed and drew the Germanic sword from his waist to protect it.

They also have it their vocation to obey orders!

Torches burn.

Ten Sergeants of Rhodok entered the ancient passage first.

The first person in the front held a torch in one hand, and the other left arm was covered with a heavy broad shield, looking ahead vigilantly, and slowly walked forward under the alert of his companion holding a long-handled machete behind him.

30 meters behind him was Kant's main force.

But they were all divided into two parts.

At the rear were the 188 Swadia heavy cavalry of the rear of the palace, led by Bandak.

This is to prevent accidents from happening, and to be able to take care of each other before and after, so as not to be directly divided and fight separately, so as to be broken by the enemy.

The scale of the army of more than 500 people is also not small.

Enter the ancient passages.

The originally neat stone pavement was littered with the corpses of demonic creatures.

The rich smell of blood is strong.

Next to it is an underground river more than 20 meters wide, the water rushes and stirs the air to form a breeze, but the smell of blood is getting stronger and stronger, after these days of fighting, the entire ancient passage is close to the direction of the ruins, and the smell of blood is even pungent.

Kant frowned, and commanded the soldiers behind him in a deep voice: "Throw all the corpses of these demonized creatures into the underground river, we don't need to keep these useless corpses." ”

"Understood!" The Ravenston rangers behind him nodded first, and bent down to throw their bodies into the underground river.

But Kant swept over the corpses of these demonic creatures, his eyes slightly stunned.

The pitch-black scales are layered on top of each other, whether it is a demonized wolf or a demonized bear, or a demonized lion, the body is full of these scales, black and shiny, just like a palm-sized snake scale, under the burning light of the torch, it reflects a slight arc of light, with a bit of intoxication and demonic light.

"A common demonic creature."

Kant muttered to himself.

Only ordinary demonic creatures that have reached the knight level can have such beautiful scales.

And these... It seems to be a demonic creature of the ordinary species!

Kant's eyes lit up instantly, with a bit of essence, and he ordered the rangers who were still about to throw their corpses: "Wait, dig out the hearts of these demonized creatures and find out if there are any dark gems." ”

"Yes." The rangers nodded.

Although he doubted Kant's order, the movement at hand did not stop.

Pulling out the dagger at his waist, he plunged directly into the ribs of these demonized creatures, making a sharp cut.

Fishy blood and pitch-black entrails slipped out at once.

But they didn't care about reaching into their hands, skillfully groping for the position of their hearts, and as they grasped a hard object the size of an egg, their faces were suddenly stunned, and they turned their heads to Kant and said, "Lord Lord, there really is something!" ”

"Sure enough."

Kant raised his eyebrows slightly and said in a deep voice: "This is what I need." ”

Gemstones stained with black blood are even darker and deeper.

The rangers cleaned themselves in the underground river beside them, and the crystal clear black solidified in them, and the torches burned with a mysterious mystery.

"It's... It's..."

Without waiting for Kant to appreciate, the mage apprentices behind him exclaimed: "The product of negative energy condensation!" ”

Apparently these mage apprentices know this kind of thing.

Without waiting for Kant to ask, the captain of the mage's apprentice immediately came over, took the black gem in his hand, carefully observed and perceived, and said to Kant in surprise: "My lord, this is indeed a gem made of a high degree of condensation of negative energy, although it has a tyrannical aura belonging to the forces of hell, but with such a high purity, it can even be used to directly recruit troops of the forces of hell in those portals of hell!" ”

"You know this black gem?" Kant frowned slightly, not caring about his rudeness, but asked in a deep voice: "You said that this is related to the forces of hell, can you talk about it?" ”

Although demonized creatures carry the word demonization, they are more of an adjective.

But I didn't expect that it was really involved with the demon of hell now.

Kant was not at peace in his heart.

"Yes, it does have to do with the forces of hell."

The mage apprentice nodded affirmatively, holding up this black gem and said, "Just like the earth element gem and water element gem you gave me before, each of which can be linked to the corresponding earth element plane and water element plane, this negative energy gem condensed with negative energy can also be connected with negative energy planes such as hell and undead. ”

After a pause, he continued to explain: "The negative energy contained in this negative energy gem is tyrannical and crazy, obviously it can only be produced in hell, if it is the undead plane, the negative energy will be Sen Leng and hatred of the living. ”

"I see." Kant nodded.

Although he didn't understand much, he also grasped a few key points.

Moaning slightly, Kant looked at him and asked, "You mean, these demonized creatures are actually hell creatures, and these negative energy gems are actually the center of these hellish creatures?" ”

"That's right." The mage's apprentice's tone was affirmative: "Only hell has this kind of tyrannical and crazy negative energy. ”

"That's right."

Kant nodded, his face calm.

Looking into the depths of the dark ancient passage ahead, he couldn't help but snort coldly.

If these demonized creatures were related to hell, it was no wonder that he had encountered a female succubus at that time, and the seals that the succubus said were sealed, and the war in the age of the gods, perhaps he had already touched a little eyebrow.

At the same time, there is also some speculation about the demonic creatures that emerge in the Sanwaya Mountains.

Maybe the source is underground.

"If this ruin is used by the blood of the gods to seal the demons, and the ruins on the top floor are also part of this ruin, then where does this ancient passage lead?"

Kant's mind fluctuates.

There is no information or record left in the history of the past.

Even the most famous academy in the Principality of Lion has not been recorded in relevant books, but it is a myth between epic legends, and if you carefully distinguish it, you can know that it is completely made up, and there is even the figure of Aemond, the god of war.

Kant knew that the so-called god of war, Aemond, was nothing more than a religion that had been passed down in the Kingdom of the Silver Platter.

It is said that the time of religious belief is less than 300 years.

It belongs to a new type of religion.

It is only when the concept of martial arts caters to the lion principality that it is established as the state religion.

But it was the Grand Dukes and nobles who were in charge, not the priests and priests.

In fact, even in the religious kingdom of the Silver Plate, the god of war Aemond is not the main deity, because in the kingdom of the silver plate, where the economy and handicrafts are more prosperous, the Holy See is the state religion.

And what they believe in is the Light.

On the retina, a dialog box popped up and interrupted his musings.
