Chapter 0093: Underground Murder
Chapter 0093 Underground Murder
Walking in the middle of the team, Li Xun was uncomfortable walking with a bent stomach, and a bastard who didn't listen to the teachings continued to be high and swollen, and even the mage couldn't walk.
There are at least hundreds of Dark Elf warriors gathered around him. They usually walk very softly. Shoes made of soft Slowe leather are perfect for this almost stealthy fighting style. The entire army of dark elves had remained quiet, and even though hundreds of people were constantly advancing, Li Xun could still clearly hear the crisp "pop" sound of water droplets falling from the sky and splashing on the stones.
The slave legions on the periphery were much less disciplined. A mixed mix of mercenaries, goblins, and trolls of all races breathed heavily, and walked at the front of the ranks of the Dark Elves—they were the so-called cannon fodder.
Since the surroundings were mostly dark, with only faintly glowing plants dotting the night-like underworld, the mage mechanically followed the team, and he couldn't know exactly where he was or what time it was.
For security reasons, Zena's undead squad surrounded the mage, isolating him from the Drow warriors. Zena returned to her mother, and like the other daughters, she formed a sacrificial group, waiting for her to be sent at any time.
Finally before the mage could get tired, the team stopped.
With the blessings of the various abilities that the mage had attached to him, he still felt tired, indicating that he had walked at least nearly 60 miles. However, the underground road is always winding and winding, and the straight-line distance is not necessarily that far.
Li Xun rubbed his sore legs and looked at the place quietly. With the help of dim vision and soul vision, he could see the terrain clearly.
The cave in front of you clearly has traces of artificial carving. All the stone pillars and bell rocks have been cleared, and the smooth stone walls around them are covered with inexplicable graffiti. Yes, it can only be called graffiti, not a mural. All the handwriting and painting are messy, the lines are thick or thin, the shades are different, and the corroded Cheng dù is also different, as if someone has been writing and painting here for hundreds of years, but there is no unified theme and style to constrain it, so it can only be classified as graffiti.
Even with Li Xun's current knowledge, he can't decipher any useful information from the ghost drawings around him. Could it be that the graffiti guy is a madman? Li Xun looked up at the dome one or twenty meters high, there were similar ghost painting charms on it, where could a madman run so high to graffiti? The mage couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Several squads of the Drow warriors began to search quickly and quietly along the stone wall, as if looking for something.
After a brief contact with Zena's soul, Li Xun was surprised by the information leaked from her, and it was said that this was once the temple of an inexplicable god.
Temple?
Are these ghost talismans or can't they be sacrificed?
Li Xun thought in amazement, and looked at the middle of the cave, where there was a remnant of a half-meter-high stone platform foundation, which was in line with the style of the altar.
Li Xun stood still, all his spiritual power was injected into his eyes, and under the alternating glances of the two visions, it seemed to penetrate the long river of time, and some fragments of long-term historical memories slowly gathered and assembled in front of his eyes, restoring a broken image of time and space.
The cavern was shrouded in an annoying blood-red color, and the flow of people marched slowly. There were old people and children, more young and middle-aged, dressed in simple clothes, no one spoke, no one talked, but moved their feet, walked sluggishly, walked up to the altar, and calmly stepped into the open blood-red light door. The blood-colored light gate emitted a strange light, which contained a breathtaking power, and a bloody and tyrannical aura was slowly growing as the light flowed. These didn't attract the mage's attention, and as his gaze swept by, the mage noticed a tall figure standing beside the blood-colored light gate.
The tall figure was illuminated by blood-colored light and shadow, revealing dazzling spots of light that twisted and writhed, and it was impossible to see the appearance of the clothes. But when the mage's gaze focused on him, a pair of eyes as bright as the red sun immediately followed the trail, followed by a roar that shook the entire heavens and the earth:
"Who? Who's there? ”
Li Xun leaned back, as if his head had been slammed, blood came out of his eyes, ears, mouth and nose at the same time, and the soul space emitted a "......buzzing" sound, and the image in front of him was instantly shattered.
At the same time, all the heroes who had a soul connection with Li Xun were dizzy for a while, and it took a long time to recover.
The two vampires preemptively held the mage.
Li Xun gasped heavily, rubbing his bulging braincase, feeling that his brain was about to boil. It's amazing! What kind of great power is this, it can actually penetrate time and space, and give yourself a ruthless blow across the long river of years! If he hadn't seen the opportunity early and cut off that part of the projected spiritual power, it is estimated that he would have been traced back by that power and annihilated his soul.
Forcibly cutting off part of his spiritual power has brought a lot of trauma to Li Xun, coupled with the shock of the other party's great power to the soul, the soul space is still rippling constantly, and it can't be calmed down for a long time.
Murderous, absolutely murderous! Even though it has been annihilated in the long river of history for thousands of years, it is still an out-and-out fierce place!
Although the tall figure didn't see it clearly, when his eyes met, a realization rose in Li Xun's heart, and he knew who it was!
Arcanist!
Grand Arcanist!
An Arcane Emperor who is also famous in the era of the Arcane Empire!
What does this scene illustrate? Where does that blood-colored light door lead?
All kinds of difficulties entangled Li Xun, making his already overwhelmed brain sound of protest. Li Xun forcibly interrupted all kinds of speculation and turned to pranayama with his eyes closed.
The materials of the Arcane Empire are too scarce and fragmented, and it is difficult to guess the truth from a brief historical scene, so it can only be left as a question.
Several Drow teams sent out to explore rushed back one after another to report, and found 3 underground passages leading to the depths.
Don't the dark elves know the terrain here?
Li Xun asked Zena about this issue, and the information he got was that this was a murderous place near the city of Rasmufer, and all those who had rested near the temple would disappear inexplicably, so few people dared to approach this place.
Although the continuous march was tiring, the famous name here was even more memorable, so the team did not stop too long, and began to divide the troops after finding the way.
The main mother led the team to the middle road, the eldest daughter Zena led the team to the left one, the second daughter and the third daughter (the fourth daughter and the fifth daughter have long ceased to exist) led the team to the right, and Li Xun naturally followed Zena's team.
There were only 10 elite Drow warriors assigned to Zena's team, and the remaining 50 slave soldiers, among which there were mainly stupid and weak goblins, and only 7 high-level slaves such as ogres, bear goblins, and minotaurs combined, so it can be seen how deeply the master mother cared about this eldest daughter. However, with the addition of the undead team, Zena's team is no less than the team of the master mother, which makes the other two priestesses unable to hide their hatred, and their eyes looking at the mage are full of murderous intent.
It is agreed that they will need to turn around after going up to 30 miles in their respective directions, and then decide which road to continue exploring according to their respective exploration conditions.
The Dark Elves are a race that pays attention to efficiency in words and deeds, and the team was divided, and immediately entered the divided passage without looking back. With this alone far surpassing the so-called national armies on the surface, it's no wonder that the Dark Elves are full of disdain when they mention the surface, seeing their journey to the surface as a simple journey of torture, and fixing this behavior as a rite of passage for the new generation of Drow warriors as they grow up.
Li Xun shook his head, shook off these nonsense thoughts, and followed Zena into the cave on the left.
Due to the huge team on the way ahead, there is a kind of murderous aura of Ling Ran, and there will be nothing that is not eye-opening to be slaughtered. Now that the team is scattered, and the strength has also declined, those underground creatures who bully the weak and fear the hard may not be able to suppress their hunger for flesh and blood and steal the killer.
In order to avoid the early loss of these cannon fodder on the road, Li Xun sent several ghosts to float in front of the team to be on guard, and the ghost killer hid in the middle of the slave team to support at any time.
The narrow stone passage through Guò is constantly passing through the connected caves, and the dark underground space is silent, except for the rustling footsteps of the troops, the occasional meaningless shouting of goblins, and soon the Drow warriors will be whipped with weapons, and the Drow will not bleed the slaves during the march, because that will attract the attention of more predators.
Li Xun waved his hand, and Zena immediately stopped the team in guò sign language, and the team's performance was not bad, and there was no phenomenon of looking around and talking in a low voice because of an unexplained pause.
Li Xun pointed above the entrance of a cave in front of him, and said in a low voice: "There are cave spiders on it, about 11." ”
Zena's charming face showed a look of embarrassment, as a believer in the spider goddess, the indiscriminate slaughter of spiders can easily cause the goddess's anger, but the road ahead is blocked, and there is no tunnel to bypass, do you need to sacrifice a group of cannon fodder to lure away these cave spiders? There are not many of your own team, and if you sacrifice like this, you won't even have cannon fodder for a trap when you encounter real danger!
These cave spiders have the cunning characteristic of underground creatures, and they are specially ambushed on the top of the cave junction, because the mouth is slightly narrow, which can prevent the prey from detecting them in advance, and they can launch a surprise attack when the prey passes through the guò mouth, and inject the paralyzing body fluids into the prey at the first time, and then it is natural to enjoy a hearty meal.
