Chapter 280: Faircrag's Lair
Entering the ruins, the two found the corpses of several goblins lying on the ground. A large amount of black poisonous blood flowed from their mouths and noses, apparently affected by the "Death Cloud Technique" just now. Continuing along the wide passageway, the two came to an empty hall full of stalagmites.
Through the dim light, Henry saw a lot of goblins, orcs, kobolds, and even an evil beast ghost. I have to say that Faircrag's methods are really good, and he has collected a lot of evil creatures wandering in the mountains. Maybe give it a few more years, and maybe it can really take the land from Am.
He stole for a moment to observe the only beast and ghost among the enemies who could pose a threat. This monster has a tiger's head, wears fancy costumes, and has the exact opposite of normal hands and palms. On top of that, it also possesses a special ability to perceive the minds of others. With one alone, it has a great advantage in battle.
But after a little consideration, Henry walked out openly. Now that he was an eighteenth-level archmage and a fifteenth-level grand druid, there was no need to be afraid of these ordinary enemies. Two people and a golem had just appeared in the hall, and all the monsters were stunned. Taking advantage of the enemy's daze, Shantil showed a bloodthirsty smile on her face, and then threw the "Abidaki Death Technique" at the place where the enemy was most numerous.
The power of the eighth-level magic is not trivial, and a large number of monsters don't even have time to react, and they are evaporated and dried up in their bodies, turning into a dry corpse. Especially the moment when those kobolds died, it directly triggered a series of violent explosions. It seems that some alchemical item has been poured into their bodies, and they have become a small dog meat bomb.
Look at the evil beast ghost who turned around and was about to run away. Henry sneered and cast a sixth-level magic "Incredible Logic". A place of more than ten meters around in an instant. A half-plane mass of Primus was formed. Then the absolute logic of the mechanical plane is injected into it. The affected creatures seemed to have seen something incredible, some of them had dull eyes and drooling from the corners of their mouths, and some lowered their heads in pain.
He was well aware that this magic would reveal some logic inherent in the real world. However, most people simply cannot understand it, so it will have a series of effects such as confusion, helplessness, pain, and conceptual collapse. It's like people living in primitive tribes in Africa can't understand that quantum mechanics is a truth.
Glancing at the beast on its knees, Henry waved his hand at Spellcaster Two, who quickly walked over and drained its life force with a touch of damage. Shantil's "immobilization" trapped the remaining orcs and goblins. Then move the serpent's long-handled cane to smash their heads one by one. Her face was crazy and intoxicated, and she seemed to enjoy the thrill of the killing.
"Enough! I don't want you to become a neurotic who only knows how to kill. Henry couldn't see it, and grabbed the sorceress's hand and reprimanded. That's why he hates the chaotic camp, these guys may be very smart, but they can't always control their feelings and desires.
Shantil was startled to her senses by the sudden sound. She took two deep breaths and quickly calmed herself down. "Sorry, master. Lately, I've been feeling something in my body whispering, and I've lost control by accident. β
"Looks like your bloodline is going to advance. Be careful these days and don't be controlled by the chaotic and evil nature. I've seen warlocks whose bloodlines are out of control. He almost completely lost himself. Henry warned with a stern expression. The sorceress's current situation was very similar to the first time he met Tieflin, except that it wasn't completely out of control.
Shantil smiled wryly and rubbed her forehead. "It's easier said than done. Easier said than done. If you don't pay attention, the fire of desire will spring up from the bottom of your heart and dominate your brain in a matter of seconds. The scariest thing is that it does not affect combat and spellcasting, and it is not even aware of it without an outsider's reminder. β
Henry also knew that this kind of thing was not so easy to overcome, otherwise there wouldn't be so many neurotic guys in this world. He took the sorceress in his arms and kissed her on the forehead. "Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on you. If you accidentally lose control, use the power of the contract to turn you back. β
"I'm a lot more relieved to hear you say that. Now let's move on, wait until we slaughter this old dragon and use its blood to forcibly unleash the power hidden in the bloodline. As she spoke, Shantil licked her red lips seductively, and then rubbed the blood on her cane against the corpse.
Coming to the corpse of the evil beast ghost, Heng used a dagger to gouge out two eyes, which are very rare alchemy materials, and found a fire kang ring on his finger. He flipped through the notes that had fallen on the ground and realized that the guy was still an alchemist. The kobolds were fed an alchemical drug that exploded violently as soon as they got the slightest bit close to the enemy.
I really don't see that this evil beast ghost still has the potential to be the leader of a terrorist organization. Henry tossed the loot into the dimensional bag, intending to study it later later. Although the biobomb is not too powerful, it is cheap enough. Especially kobolds and goblins that reproduce very quickly, that's really how much there are. When the time comes, just send an army around the nearby forest to ensure that a large group can be captured.
At the northernmost end of the stalagmite hall, the two of them saw a bottomless pit, and the smell of rotting flesh came from inside. Shantil picked up a dark red scale near the entrance to the cave and tested it to find that it was harder than steel.
"Master, I can feel the magic flowing through this old dragon's body from the scales. Be careful when fighting, it must have a fairly high class level. The sorceress licked the scales and issued a warning with a stern expression.
"If my intel is correct, Faircragg should be a warrior class. However, the dragon's talent spell is a bit of a problem, especially since it seems to have time to stop. Henry recalled, and directly shook the old bottom of the red dragon.
Shantil frowned. As the best of the ninth-level magic, time standing still can be said to be a great killer. In this short period of less than twenty seconds, every qiΔ damage inflicted by the caster during this period will suddenly appear after the spell time has passed. Except for a very small number of extremely powerful creatures such as the gods and their avatars, demon lords, devil dukes, and demigods, only the electors of the goddess of magic are immune to this magic.
Of course, there are a handful of magical items in this world that can achieve the same effect, but the worst ones require legendary mages to make zuΓ², and just buying materials is enough to bankrupt a country. After all, there are not many substances that can carry the power of time, and you should thank Lady Luck for a glance.
"Forget it, don't think about so much uselessness. Let's move on, kill all of its men first, and get in the way of the battle in the province. Saying that, Henry blessed himself and the sorceress with a "protective long-range weapon" and walked into the northern passage together.
As soon as they entered the door, the two men received a warm welcome from the orc shooter. It is a room surrounded by iron fences, and enemies can attack through the cracks in a ranged attack. I have to say that the guy who designed this trap had a good idea, but he just didn't take into account the caster.
Before the arrow could get closer, it was bounced off by an invisible position. Henry randomly released a few magic missiles and flaming hands, and turned all these orcs into dead corpses. Even if 10,000 orc warriors come now, they can't threaten his safety, so it's a big deal to run away when the spell runs out, and come back after resting. As long as you repeat it a few times, you can always kill the light. This is the power of the top spellcaster, and no one wants to make an enmity with them for no reason.
The two of them cleaned up all kinds of evil creatures along the way, sparing every room. Vampires, werewolves, goblins, orcs, wolves, and even a troll chef, Faircrag is a real no-brainer. Although it caused a little trouble due to the large number of vampires, after the sorceress used the "Daylight Star's daily "Sun Flame Explosion", all of them turned into ashes.
Powerful energy swept through the rooms where the vampires lived, and even the coffins where they slept were completely purified. However, Shantil still paid some price, due to her own lower plane bloodline, her eyes were burned by YanzhΓ²ng, and even her vision was affected to a certain extent.
Henry didn't dare to slack off, and immediately used the natural magic to treat it, but the effect was not ideal. The redness and swelling around the eye circles have subsided, but the vision has not recovered much. The sorceress is very vague now, and it seems that it will take at least half a month or so to return to her normal state.
"Don't worry, master. My eyes were a little blurry, but I couldn't see a huge red dragon. Shantil wasn't worried about her condition, and it wasn't the first time for her.
Henry sighed slightly, and then said, "It seems that this sword of the sun is not suitable for you, so you should leave it to me for safekeeping." You must know that the higher your Warlock level, the more you will reject these positive abilities, and perhaps in the end, even the healing magic of the Good Camp Priest will not be able to work. I even suspect that one of your parents might be an Abyss Lord, otherwise there shouldn't have been such a violent reaction. β
"Maybe, but I never knew who my parents were. For as long as he can remember, he has been learning from a mage with ill intentions how to control the power of the zhì bloodline. He wanted to extract the natural abilities that belong to warlocks at the moment when I fully awakened, but unfortunately, another of his apprentices stabbed his throat with a dagger. After saying that, Shantil's face showed a sarcastic smile, and she didn't know if she was satirizing her own background or the stupidity of the mage.
