295. Assault
Because there is only one exit to this corridor, and all the dark blades have been taken care of by Nolo, even if the formation is disjointed, everyone will not encounter any danger.
So the first to arrive at the exit were Sean and Nolo.
In front of Sean's eyes, there was a huge courtyard.
In terms of area alone, it is not smaller than the main hall that Sean saw when he entered the Mermaid Capital. And compared to the boring and monochromatic color of the original hall, this courtyard is full of a truly aesthetic atmosphere.
It is evident that the man-made terraces are scattered around the entire courtyard, and the closer you get to the core of the courtyard, the more the terrain develops downward, looking like a basin. It's just that the surroundings of this basin are full of flowers and plants that Sean doesn't know at all, and under the activation of the True Eye, all of these flowers and plants are blue and green quality materials, and they are obviously something that can be used in alchemy and pharmacy.
In addition to these valuable flowers and plants, the beauty of this courtyard is also first-class.
An artificially mined stream flows gently down the top of the terraces to the middle of the basin, where it accumulates into a central lake. The area of the central lake is not small, Sean estimates that there must be an area of about an acre of land, and in the middle of the central lake there is a piece of artificial land, on which only a pavilion of the same size as the land is built, but this pavilion is not covered by the roof, but in the open air.
In the middle of this pavilion is a round platform about one meter high, and on top of the round platform are the two pieces of earth. The piece of earth that Nolo had picked up earlier was near this round platform. Originally, he wanted to take the two pieces of earth along with them, but in the end, he didn't know what his concern was. So I didn't take it. And there are four roads leading to this pavilion. It was exactly in the four directions of the basin - where Sean appeared at this time, there was a stone staircase that went down, and following the road all the way to the pavilion.
"I finally know now why you didn't take those two pieces of earth." Sean pursed his lips, "This trap is really obvious. β
Nolo shrugged his shoulders and was noncommittal: "I don't know anything about this place, and I don't know anything about those puppets, I'm afraid that rash action will bring some unnecessary trouble to the team." β¦β¦ So I decided to wait for you to come and see what is going on here. After determining what the guards are, make a decision. β
Nolo's judgment is undoubtedly the most correct.
In the entire team, there really was no one who knew all the mechanism puppet creations of the entire Mermaid Empire better than Sean.
Lancet's understanding was half-understood, and most of the time he couldn't even name the puppets.
Only Sean is truly aware and clear.
He knows under what circumstances, what series and which model of puppets will be required, and he also knows the strengths and weaknesses of these puppets, and he knows what means to use to deal with them. No one knows why Sean would know about an empire that has been ruined for a long time. But no one will doubt the accuracy and reasonableness of Sean's words, they only know that what Sean said must be correct.
Only Nolo didn't blindly believe Sean.
Because of his relationship with Sean. It's not ordinary.
"It should be the knight of the sea from the knight series." Sean frowned, "But it's also possible that it's a water goblin from the Strike series." β¦β¦ Considering the dark corridor we had passed through earlier, I was more inclined to the latter. β
Just as Sean spoke. Harding and others also rushed over one after another.
When they heard Sean's words, they were slightly stunned. So this means that the enemy they need to deal with is another model that has not been seen before. Soon, however, everyone was captivated by the sight in front of them. As a mermaid who loves beauty. The courtyard in front of them is naturally extremely luxurious and beautiful, not much inferior to the elven royal court of the Silver Moon Elf, and even more rare is that in this kind of courtyard that can clearly be seen to be the traces of artificial creation, if it is not for obsessive-compulsive disorder and having to stare at the details, this courtyard seems to be full of a natural harmonious beauty of nature.
"What I really need to care about is the central lake." Sean spoke, "A lot of people might focus on that cylindrical trap, but in fact, with the merfolk character, there is no need to set up extra traps at all, because they rely heavily on their own puppets. β¦β¦ And the puppets related to water are only the sea knights of the knight series and the water goblins of the assault series. β
"Special series are also possible." Just when everyone was silent, Lenster, who had not spoken much, suddenly interjected.
"Well, special sets are possible." Sean also nodded, "But the special series is not a mass production work, all the special series models are unique individuals, and the merfolk have not made many special series of puppets in history, and most of them have been destroyed in various wars and battles." β¦β¦ However, if it is really a special series, I can't be sure of the specific situation until I see this model. β
"So what do we do now?" Harding asked, "Shall we go get those two pieces of earth, or do you want to explore the other areas first?" β
The conversation between Sean and Nolo just now was not hidden from the others, and everyone naturally heard about the role and value of the earth fragments. It's just that everyone present is a genius who is truly arrogant, especially when they hear Nolo say that excessive use of law fragments will cut off the path of legend, these people naturally won't have any interest in these two earth fragments.
Although Lancet is probably unlikely to become a legendary powerhouse in his lifetime because of his racial talent, this kind of law fragment will not have any problem even if it is overused. It's just that as a mermaid, his closeness to nature is the water element, and this earth element is originally restrained from the water element, and for Lancet, except for making him feel uncomfortable, there is no gushing out, so it is naturally impossible for him to contact and use any earth laws.
Basically. These earth fragments are valuable to Nolo and Sean, but they can also be considered waste to everyone else.
And in this courtyard. In addition to the passage behind where Sean and the others came in, there were two other holes.
One was directly across from the entrance of the cave where Sean and the others entered. The other is on the right hand side of the crowd.
These three entrances and exits are exactly the three points of an equilateral triangle.
Sean looked at Nolo and asked, "Have you explored the other two entrances and exits?" β
Nolo shook his head, with a rare embarrassed look on his face: "When I came here, I was attracted by the fragments of the earth, so I just surveyed the situation around this courtyard, and didn't go to the other two passages to check. β¦β¦ The murderous aura in this courtyard is not strong, at least it is much calmer than the passage we just had, the only thing that makes me feel strange. There was only the area around the stone pillar. β
"The power of the water elemental here is too strong, whether it is for the water fairy or the sea knight, it is very beneficial, if even you feel tricky and dangerous, we rush to take those two pieces of the earth, but it is very likely that we will fall into a crisis." Sean thought for a moment before he spoke, "According to the original plan, let's find the power room first." After closing the central magic circle, let's do it again. β
Hearing Sean's words, everyone nodded, and no one chose to object.
It's just that the current problem is coming again. That is, there are two choices in the direction of progress, which direction to start exploring first?
"The principle of proximity." Sean spoke, "Start on the right. β¦β¦ But before that. Lancet, you take a look around. There's no mermaid heart here that you said. Harding, you're in charge of protecting Lancet. Avoid the possibility of being attacked by the puppets, as for Nolo......"
"I understand." Nolo sighed, and almost as soon as Sean called his name, he was already walking towards the entrance on the right.
Obviously, this kind of reconnaissance type of physical work is only capable of him.
As Sean's orders began to be given, everyone began to do their own things.
Accompanied by Harding, Lancet began to walk down the stone staircase.
Although this is a terraced terrain, you can see the entire terrain from a high place, but because the terraces in the courtyard are planted with many flowers and plants, and the area of this courtyard is very large, there is really no way to see it at a glance, even if Lanster's eyesight is good. Therefore, he could only begin to take the most stupid method, which was the exploration of the terraces that surrounded the entire courtyard, inch by inch.
Oriana and Heatley are the lowest in the team, so they stay where they are, and only this position is the safest.
However, Sean didn't plan to make Oriana too easy, taking advantage of this exploration and reconnaissance, he naturally let Oriana continue to practice swords. γMystic Swordsmanship. This sword skill can only be learned through the stupid method of guΓ², and there is no shortcut to take. As for judging whether Oriana has the talent to learn swordsmanship, it is Sean's final say, and Orianna herself does not count.
Just when everyone was starting to get busy, Nolo, who had already reached the entrance of the cave on the right, suddenly let out an angry shout, not only the realm was fully expanded, but even the Black King in his hand burst out with an extremely dazzling and dazzling black light.
Before anyone could react to this sudden outbreak of battle, an extremely dazzling white light had erupted at the mouth of the passage.
This light looked like a crystal barrier, and countless light streaks traveled in the air, and at first glance it looked like a huge light shield of countless diamond-shaped crystals combined together. However, the storage of this light shield really blocked the sword qi of Noluo's shot - even if Noluo did make a hasty attack and did not do his best, the power of this sword was at least equivalent to the full force of the upper golden powerhouse.
But this blow was completely blocked by this light shield - all everyone saw was that a black sword qi exploded on the light shield, and then turned into countless black electric snakes walking around the light shield, and finally gradually disappeared.
And Nolo, with the powerful impact of this hastily shot, jumped out to the side and stood more than ten meters away from the entrance.
At this time, Noluo's expression was unusually strict and serious, and the aura of a strong man belonging to the middle rank of the holy domain also completely burst out, especially his domain, which was completely shrouded in the entrance of the passage. Harding, who was on the side, also entered a state of battle in the next second after the conflict broke out at this moment just now, and rushed to Nolo's side in three steps and two steps, and formed a horn with Nolo and the two of them towards this passage.
"What's going on?" Sean was also hurrying to his feet and asked.
It's just that when his voice fell, and when he saw the puppet slowly walking out of the passageway, his face changed suddenly! (To be continued......)
