Chapter Eighty-Five: Herest's Labyrinth II
Hearing the words of the half-orc warrior, Henry explained it to him. It was a special plant called forget-me-not, and they could create a corresponding opposite sex according to the type of mammal to attract prey. Moreover, the fragrance of this plant can induce people and animals to come into heat, and once attracted to it, it will be bitten to death and eaten by the large mouth full of fangs. Thankfully, you reacted in time, otherwise this armor wouldn't have been able to protect you. ”
"It's so weird here, and with my previous experience of wandering around and adventures, I can't handle the situation in front of me." Vaughn shook his head in annoyance.
Debra looked him in the eye gravely. "Please don't use common sense to infer the thoughts of a legendary mage, not to mention that this legendary mage's mind is seriously abnormal. Otherwise, all kinds of common sense and experience will kill you sooner or later. ”
Henry nodded in agreement. "You're right, all the common sense here doesn't work very well, and anything can happen. We're camping here now, and we're all tired after running for so long. Because I was suddenly woken up just now, my spell slot hasn't recovered yet. ”
The orc warrior looked a little frustrated, and he took off his helmet and poured a jug of water over his head. He shook the drops of water from his hair vigorously, then stood up and began to clear a clean place in the passage and set up camp. Debra took some firewood from the dimensional bag and lit a campfire, then set up a pot and boiled a pot of chicken and mushroom soup. After a long period of running away and using the acceleration technique, everyone wanted to eat something and go to sleep immediately.
The female mage with the worst physical strength was a little absent-minded, and her upper and lower eyelids had begun to fight unconsciously. The simple soup was quickly cooked, everyone drank a bowl, and after eating, the two mages went straight into the sleeping bag. After a few minutes, the cries rang out, and they were so tired. Vaughn sat alone on the wall of the hallway, resting silently with his eyes closed, and it wasn't long before he fell asleep.
Ten hours later, Henry was the first to open his eyes, he stretched, and he got out of his sleeping bag to make some water to wash his face and brush his teeth. When passing by the half-orc warriors, they found that Vaughn, who was on the night watch, was already asleep, and it was no wonder that few people could resist the fatigue after the acceleration. It wasn't long before Debra woke up, and after she washed up, she began to eat jerky and bread in silence. Just after the two mages had eaten their food, Vaughn opened his eyes and looked up at the two men, then scratched his head embarrassedly. "I'm sorry, I fell asleep during the vigil last night."
Henry waved his hand. "It's okay, you were exhausted yesterday too. The exhaustion caused by blessing spells is not so easy to remove. Let's get some food, and we'll continue to set off and try to get out of this labyrinth today. With that, he handed it to Vaughn, and the orc warrior took it and quickly disposed of the food in his hand.
After eating, the group began to move along the corridor. It didn't take long for them to step out of the passageway, and what appeared in front of them was a large room with three large portals erected in the center of the room. Henry stepped forward and felt the fluctuations of the magic and turned to the two of them, "These portals are one-way, which means they will close as soon as we pass through. There are three of them, and it looks like we should be let in. ”
Debra came to a table and saw that there were some recesses on the top, each of which took on different shapes, and it was exactly three. She said to Henry, "Look, I think what we're looking for is a stamp that can be embedded here." These grooves also happen to be three. ”
"Then let's enter this portal now and start looking, we still have to hurry, don't we?" With that, the orc warrior slipped into one of the portals, and when he entered, the doors disappeared automatically.
Henry frowned as he looked at the vanishing door. "It seems that only one person is allowed through each gate, and now we have to separate as well. Be careful inside, anything can happen. ”
Debra nodded solemnly. "You should be careful, no one knows what is waiting for us behind Lu Dao now." After speaking, the two of them entered different portals.
The orc warrior was now in a bitter battle, and after passing through the portal, he saw a large group of goblins, and he didn't pay any attention to these guys, rushed into the middle of this group of filthy little monsters, and slaughtered them. After a few minutes, he noticed that instead of decreasing, the number of goblins was increasing, and now as long as the sword in his hand was a little slower, these dirty little things would squeeze in front of him and attack.
The most terrifying thing is that they are not as timid as ordinary goblins, they are all like crazy, and it won't be long before his physical strength is exhausted. After kicking a goblin, the orc warrior kicked the ground hard and jumped forward, and when he landed, he directly used the goblins under his feet as a cushion and trampled several to death. In this way, Vaughn quickly approached the cave not far away, and by the time he reached the entrance of the cave, the boots on his feet had been stained blood-red.
Rubbing the blood on the ground, he quickly ran in, and the goblins behind him seemed to be afraid of something, but they just surrounded the hole and didn't dare to come in. Vaughn walked down the cavern to the bottom, where he saw a spectacular sight of a giant carved out of massive icebergs. He was dressed in ornate ice armor and armed with a greatsword that was glowing cold. Just as the orc warrior was in a daze, the giant spoke, "Traveler from the surface, which one do you choose to fight me or answer the question?" ”
Vaughn clenched the Giant Slayer in a loud response. "I am a fearless warrior, of course I choose to fight." With that, he rushed towards the ten-meter-tall giant.
The giant raised his sword and shouted, "As you wish, now let's fight." With that, the huge blade swept towards the orc warrior. Vaughn dodged the blade of his sword and continued to run forward with a tumble on the spot, and when he reached the giant's body, he slashed his sword into its ankle, sending large shards of ice flying out, and the additional fire damage on the sword melted large swaths of ice.
The giant reached out to grab him, but Vaughn took advantage of his height and ran around his two legs. It didn't take long for the giant's feet to be cut off, and his huge body fell to the ground with a "bang", a large amount of ice was torn apart, and the huge head rolled off his neck.
Seeing the giant fall, Vaughn sat down on the ground tiredly and rested for a while before he got up and walked to the side of the greatsword. Touching the sword that had fallen to the ground, he found that the weapon was cold to the touch, much like the legendary cold iron. There was a protruding object on the hilt of the sword, and when you looked closely, it was just the shape of one of the three grooves on the table. He pulled out his dagger and pulled out the badge, and suddenly a white light appeared in front of him, and then he returned to the room he had just had.
The orc warrior looked around and saw that the other two were not there, and he immediately understood that Henry and Debra must be like him, entering the portal to find the other two badges. He dropped the Iron Greatsword and sat down in the corner of the wall and waited silently.
Henry was now walking in a scorching cavern, and he would have been roasted if he hadn't blessed himself with a protective flame. The cave has only a narrow path, and it is all bubbling with hot lava on both sides. Suddenly, a fire elemental emerged from the magma, and it ran towards it.
Henry didn't dare to slack off and immediately began to chant the incantation, and the ice storm was ready to be completed before the fire elemental rushed over. The magic hail quickly lowered the temperature of the fire elemental, and soon its body lost its heat and died. This was already the third fire elemental he had encountered along the way, and he was already able to deal with this sudden attack with ease.
Through a tunnel filled with magma, he descended into the depths of the earth. Henry found that it was a crater, and a fire elemental elder was walking around the magma in the middle, and the air around him began to distort due to his massive height and scorching heat. He quietly blessed himself with a high-level stealth technique, and began to slowly approach the target, at a distance of about ten meters behind the most Lu, even the protective flames were a little unable to resist.
He even saw the hairs on his hands evaporate into gas, and after carefully observing the Fire Elemental Elder for a while, he found that there was a black thing inlaid on its arm, Henry gritted his teeth and rushed over with the acceleration of the magic boots on his feet, and then plunged the dagger into it to pry out this thing, casually threw it into the dimensional bag and turned around and ran.
The Fire Elemental Elder looked angrily at the human, who didn't know whether to live or die, and he grabbed a large handful of magma and threw it over. The rain of fire caused a lot of trouble for Henry, and he desperately dodged the falling hot liquid left and right, and with the help of the Speed Boots, he finally escaped from the range of the Fire Elemental Elder. At the moment when he rushed out of the hole, a white light appeared in front of him, and he subconsciously blocked his face with his hand. When I opened my eyes again, I found that I had returned to my original room.
Looking at the cold iron greatsword on the ground, he said to Vaughn, who was sitting in the corner, "It seems that the enemy you encountered is not small, you must know that there are not many monsters in the main plane of the Dao Dao who can use such a large sword. ”
The orc warrior cracked his mouth and smiled. "First, there was a large group of goblins who were killing more and more, and when I found that they couldn't kill them all, I ran into the hole. Then there was a ten-meter-tall, ice-made giant. I cut off both of his feet with the Giant Slayer, and he broke into pieces at the worst. Here's the badge I found. As he spoke, he threw over what he was holding.
When Henry received it, he saw the snowflake pattern engraved on it, and he picked up the badge in his hand and found that it was carved with a flame symbol. Walking over to the table, he inserted the two badges into the dents, then stepped aside and sat down. Now only Debra has not returned, and hopefully nothing will happen to her.
