Chapter 259: Durag's Tower VI
Looking at the ghoul who rushed up to his death, Henry sighed slightly, and directly asked the terminator to rush up and chop it into pieces. Perhaps for Grace, who has memories of his life, it is better to be killed than to live in such an ugly posture. On the corpse, he found a special barrier stone. Together with the one I found in the north just now, there are already two pieces now.
Coming to the secret door on the east side of the tunnel, Henry embedded the barrier stones on the left and right sides. Only a "click" was heard, and the entire stone wall began to sink slowly, revealing the passage behind it. He carefully avoided the traps on the ground and began to explore inside. Luckily, there were no monsters here, and at the end of the passage he found Durag's treasury.
Covered with gold coins and boxes of gems, Henry couldn't open his eyes. These things are worth as much as the sum of the value of several dragons, so it's no wonder that so many adventurers are running one after another to send them to their deaths. He unceremoniously instructed the Terminator to begin stuffing the dimensional bag, and soon the entire storage room was looted for treasure.
In addition to a large collection of gold coins and gems, Henry also found several magical weapons. However, he didn't rush to identify it, but first pretended to wait for the mission to end. Activating the magic circle in the middle of the vault, he was teleported to the circular room for the third time. After answering a question about who Durag should condemn, he was once again returned to the entrance to the fourth basement floor.
Tears of joy welled up in the ghost's face when he saw Henry. He floated over and shouted excitedly, "You did it!" You've completed all the trials! Now you have the qualifications to enter the lowest level. Go ahead and kill that damn demon, or it will succeed in transforming this fortress. It is impossible for anyone to break through. ”
"Of course. That's what I'm here for. Henry replied with a slight bow.
The ghost nodded in satisfaction. "Very noble move. If you can get rid of that demon down there. I can take the entire Control Stone of the Tower of Durag as a token of appreciation, and the tower will be yours then. Now let me open the last passage for you. With that, he opened the door to the fifth basement floor.
Standing at the top of the staircase, Henry felt an evil aura coming from below. After he blessed himself with all the protective methods, he walked down with his two creations. As soon as I stepped out of the staircase, a voice rang in my ears.
"Welcome! Humble bugs! It's been a bit boring lately, and I hope you can give me some fun. ”
Following the direction of the voice, Henry saw a demon wrapped in black armor. The creature was holding a two-handed greatsword emitting black smoke and a mirror beside him that radiated magical energy. From the mirror. He saw a strange world and another self.
"I am also honored to meet a demon from the bottomless abyss. But the mirror next to you seems to be very interesting, I wonder if you can lend it to me for two days to study? ”
The Demon Da Lang smiled and waved the sword in his hand. "Haha This mirror is a treasure. It not only sees through the desires and fears of an intelligent being, but also replicates them. Come on, little bug, stand in front of this mirror and put on a great show for me. ”
"Hehe, I'm so sorry, I hate being played like a monkey. But since you're bored, why don't you get involved? Henry sneered, and shot several magic missiles from his fingertips, directly shattering the mirror.
The demon was stunned for a moment, and then let out a roar: "No! You idiot! I don't know what I did! You have broken the boundaries between the two worlds. They're coming soon. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, two figures appeared in front of the broken mirror. One of them looked exactly like Henry. The other is a complete copy of the devil. As soon as the two of them appeared, they each launched an attack on their other selves. The demon was distracted by his own replica, and several deep wounds soon appeared on his body.
Seeing the demon's embarrassed appearance, a gloating expression appeared on Henry's face. His own replica is very easy to deal with, as the mirror only succeeds in replicating the druid's class rank. Maybe it's because of the relationship between the time, maybe it's because the system can't be replicated, in short, the guy in front of him is easy to deal with, and he was chopped off by the terminator in just a few rounds.
Henry chanted the incantation unhurriedly, as long as the clone was blessed with some protective magic, it would be dispelled immediately. Surrounded by two alchemy creations, it was quickly cut off by an axe. Killing his own clones, he immediately turned his attention to the two demons who were fighting.
The two guys were scarred, and their bodies were spurting blood. If it weren't for the demon's unattainable vitality, I'm afraid it would have gone into shock due to excessive blood loss. Looking at the embarrassed appearance of the real demon, Henry laughed and mocked: "Mr. Demon, I don't think you will be bored now." Look at these blood-spurting wounds, it's so beautiful, it's like a fountain. ”
"Damn humans! I'm going to take your soul out of your body and roast it on the flames of the abyss for 10,000 years. Annoyed, the demon dropped the replica and rushed towards it.
I saw the magic swords emitting black smoke stabbing at Henry, but they were bounced away by an invisible position. He looked at the demon with a mocking expression, as long as the effect of the "protective magic weapon" had not disappeared, no enchanted weapon could pass through this force field. Mages have too much of an advantage over a warrior, and unless they have a powerful piece of equipment, they can only watch themselves being played.
"Ahhh I'll chop you to minced meat! Kill! Kill! Kill!" The demon lost his mind in anger, and he frantically swung his weapon to smash the magical position.
Henry completely ignored these attacks and blessed himself with a "protective magic weapon". The spell was powerful, but it lasted too little, less than twenty seconds. Seeing that his attacks were all in vain, the demon kicked away the replica that caught up with him and began to chant a spell loudly.
Seeing that the guy wanted to cast a spell, Henry immediately asked the Terminator to rush up to interrupt it, and at the same time directed the Roll Box Golem to release a "rainbow jet". Orange and yellow light struck the demon's body, causing a large area of acid and lightning damage. Taking advantage of the moment when the electricity paralyzed, the Terminator cut off the opponent's head with an axe.
The demon let out a heart-rending wail, and then opened a crack in the ground that led to the abyss, sucking it in. When the body was completely gone, the replica was gone. Henry knew that the demon was not dead at all, but had just returned to the bottomless abyss and was reborn. But fortunately, he didn't know who he was, otherwise he would have to keep an eye on it in the future to prevent this guy from sabotage.
Picking up the dagger that had fallen to the ground, Henry immediately felt something unusual. The small weapon was surprisingly heavy, and it was slightly warm to the touch. The black gem on the top seemed to be shining, but when you look closely, you can see that the core is actually dead black. It seems that this is the legendary Soul Snatcher Dagger. Back on the previous floor, he immediately approached the ghost and asked him about the weapon.
From the wraith's mouth, it is known that Durag swept away the evil power of the land at a young age. The most formidable foe he's ever encountered is a demon named Ekretek. After much hardship, Durag finally defeated this formidable enemy, but there was no way to kill him completely. In order to prevent Ecletk from resurrecting, the dwarven hero crafted the dagger himself and sealed the demon's soul inside.
Accomplishing his wish, the ghost handed over a dark and shiny runestone, and then dissipated with the soul of Islam into thin air. Henry put away the control stone and used the "group teleportation" technique to return to the Ugus Hud. As soon as he crossed the portal, he was besieged by a group of cultists who were trying to resurrect Ekretek.
The two sides immediately started fighting without saying a word, and seeing the large number of each other, Henry directly asked the Terminator to activate the unique ability of the legendary warrior "Whirlwind Attack". I saw that the weapon in his hand was almost invisible, and a large number of cultists left their necks before they could understand what was going on.
After killing all the attackers around him, Henry came to the inn and handed the Reaver Dagger back to Hogan. Stoneblai. Just as the dwarf was about to take a closer look, a thief suddenly rushed out of the shadows and snatched the dagger, smashed directly into the window of the inn, and disappeared into the crowd in the blink of an eye.
Hogan stood stunned and didn't react for a moment. He yelled at Henry, "Not good! The thief was a member of the cult who worshipped Ekretek as a god. You'll need to get the Soul Reaver back quickly, or it won't be a good thing if he comes back to life. My grandfather and Durag were killed by this demon, and you must not let their plot succeed. ”
"Don't worry, this village is not big, it only takes about half an hour to find them." With that, Henry stood up and walked out of the hotel.
The Uggus stubble is indeed very small. It only took him ten minutes to find a couple of sneaky guys at the door of a warehouse. You don't have to think about it, this is definitely the place where the resurrection ceremony takes place. The strong evil aura inside couldn't be concealed at all, and even the surrounding grass and trees began to wither.
Henry didn't intend to talk to these demon-believing neurotics, and just let the Terminator and the Roll Golem rush in and go on a killing spree. What he didn't expect was that more than sixty heavily armed cult members had gathered in the warehouse. These guys didn't care about their own lives at all, just to delay a little time so that the resurrection ritual could be completed.
Just as Hen used the "Burning Hand" to burn the last thief, a violent vibration suddenly occurred under the warehouse, followed by a rancid smell from the abyss, which quickly surrounded the entire building. He sighed slightly, knowing that he was still one step too late, and that Akritk had been resurrected. (To be continued......)
