Demon Lord

Chapter 424: Dead End

"crash"

Four soldiers floated up from the surface of the water and pushed the object in their hands to the shore with all their strength—this black object covered with water plants was not small, with a length and width of more than one and a half meters. At first glance, they thought it was the wreck of a sunken ship, but Luo Di also knew that Lake Taal on the glacier plain was not connected to any sea area, it was just a closed freshwater lake, and it was unlikely that there would be boats in this kind of place.

He was also a little curious, but after approaching, there was no specific page prompt in front of him, but a line of gray writing floating in the air:

"Broken Wreck"

In my memory, the "Essence of Water" of Taal Lake was also acquired by a certain large guild during land reclamation. This news made many people salivate, but as for what else they harvested, Rody didn't know at all—but it can What is certain is that this kind of thing marked with "gray" font always represents the quality of "garbage" and belongs to things of no value.

"Let's see if there are other things, this one is useless."

Rody waved his hand to let the soldiers continue to salvage. When he turned his head, he found that Soderol was tapping the wreckage with his fingers.

"This thing looks like it's made of metal."

Perhaps it was because it was too old, Suo Deluoer just broke it casually, and the wreckage fell off one by one. He looked carefully, frowned and said: "This is a man-made forged thing, look at the section—"

After hearing the words, Rody took it, and found that this thing did have the unique texture and luster of forged metal, but the barbarians on the glacier plain don't know how to forge metal at all. How did this thing come about?

Could it be Solomon?

The name flashed across his mind, but Rody couldn't confirm the relationship between it: he knew very little about Solomon. He knew Solomon before because of the copy of "King Solomon's Treasure", but the main information was concentrated on the strategy of the copy. His background and identity are not clear at all, and those vague information can't explain the origin of this thing in front of him at this time.

"I think it looks like a... breastplate."

Soderol reached out and gestured, and slowly turned the metal plate over. After hearing this, Luo Di couldn't help laughing: "Chest armor? This thing is enough for a door panel, who is so big? Could it be a snow monster wearing it?"

After speaking, Rody was stunned for a moment, but the unrealistic assumption in his mind was quickly overturned: "If the snow monsters can wear this thing, it is estimated that the Karen Kingdom has been invaded by them, and it is probably a remnant of ancient civilization. Bar."

Suo Deluoer was not stubborn, because he couldn't confirm that this thing was the breastplate. Hearing what Rody said, he also felt that he was thinking too much, so he got up and directed the soldiers to continue to salvage the items.

The salvage operation lasted for a whole day, and when the evening came, the water essence at the bottom of the lake was basically salvaged. In addition to the 520 pieces of "Water Essence", Rody also accidentally found a "Ultimate Water Essence" — This essence is shaped like a sapphire, and its quality is purple epic. Obviously, the energy contained in it is more pure, and it belongs to the rare element gem. With this extra gain, Rody was naturally in a good mood. For dinner, he ordered the soldiers to slaughter two more deer for tooth sacrifice. Erwin and the others sang and danced with the soldiers, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

After the primary goal was completed, the team rested overnight and continued to advance as planned the next day.

Four days later, on November 10, the team finally arrived at the Deathwhisper Canyon in the eastern part of the Glacier Plain. After entering this cold and windy area, Rody went all the way according to the instructions on the "Judgment of the Throne of Bones" task reward, and finally came to a deserted ruin in the canyon.

Although there were no more battles along the way, it was quite dangerous along the way—the level of monsters in Deathrattle Canyon ranges from level 6 to level 6, and several of the boss level monsters are not something this team can deal with at all, but the mission rewards After all, it will not deceive people. The route chosen bypasses the territory of high-level monsters, and there is no battle along the way.

The barbarians have always regarded Deathrattle Canyon as a forbidden place, because there are densely populated snow monsters here, and there are prey they cannot deal with. However, following Rody's way down the road, the courage of Erwin and others has already been tempered and their nerves are strong, and they no longer have any fear at all.

Even so, there was a slight doubt in Luo Di's heart - he spent two levels here when he was level 2, so he was very familiar with the distribution of monsters in Deathrattle Canyon. However, when the team was marching through the forest, Rody noticed several times that the positions of the groups of snow monsters had changed...

Although it was not much different from what he remembered, Rody also recorded these situations sensitively. However, after careful calculation, he finally confirmed that these snow monsters really did not pose any real threat to the team, so when they arrived at the ruins, these things were completely forgotten.

The ruins in front of me have also been here before, but it has long been a camp for players to rest, and it is completely different from the unreclaimed wasteland in front of me.

Due to environmental reasons, these broken walls and ruins were basically covered by hard ice and snow, and their original appearance could not be seen for a long time. Rody asked the team to disperse vigilance, and he took Soderol, Akasha and Nata to the middle of the ruins—for Just in case, Suo Deluo slightly raised the keel shield to block the front, and Rody didn't push it too far, and walked forward with the ice crystal thorn.

According to the instructions of the task reward, Rody came to an inconspicuous wall in the ruins, pulled out his dagger to chop up the ice, and then frowned slightly at the inconspicuous groove in front of him.

"Roddy?"

Akasha asked from the side.

"Should need something to open."

Rody looked at the prompt in front of him, which said "Activate the mechanism with energy to get rewards", he thought for a while, raised his hand and pressed it directly on the groove, and then activated the arcane spar on the glove—

"Snapped"

The next moment, the spar shattered without warning, and Roddy was bounced off by a shock force, and he took three or four steps back before stopping.

This scene made several people startled. Soderol had already raised his shield in front of him in an instant, and Nata's long arrow had already pointed at him...

Akasha's healing technique fell on Rody, but at this time he showed no signs of injury, but his brows frowned even deeper.

"Energy...can't arcane energy?"

After thinking for a while, he reached out and took out an "Essence of Water" and put it into the groove—this time the magic circle did not explode, but flashed a ray of light and then slowly cracked, exposing everything inside the stone wall .

"It turns out that elemental energy is needed."

Rody pushed aside the gravel, picked up the "Erondgar's Long Sword" design drawing, and confirmed that he had received the reward. Then he briefly glanced at the blueprint, and found that it was not just a blueprint or formula, but also told some other information...

The author of the recipe is a high elf artisan named "Frox". The reason why he is called a "Great Craftsman" is because he not only has profound attainments in forging, but also is proficient in magic circles, enchanting, and academic research. Judging by the current standards, he can basically be called "all-rounder" and "genius"—he There are countless astonishing inventions and researches, and this short sword seems to be just one of them.

The "Judgment of the Throne of Bones" has a lot to do with him, because there is a special sentence on this design drawing: This kind of short sword is specially designed by high elf soldiers to fight against those "dead" enemies. made.

It turns out that the undead made trouble during the high elves?

Luo Di was a little surprised by this, but he didn't have time to think about it—he put away the formula, and he flipped through the cracked wall, and found some uncorrupted paper manuscripts inside. After looking through it carefully, his eyes narrowed slightly stand up.

"These buildings were not built by barbarians, right? Why do I feel familiar?"

Akasha beside her looked at the walls whose shapes had been blurred, and suddenly stretched out her hand and gestured: "Here is a square area, followed by three circular partitions. It seems that Elson City also has such a design."

Rody raised his eyes in surprise, and then remembered Akasha's "student master" potential, nodded and said: "You are right, this is the same high elf ruins as Elson, but it is older."

"What is stored in this institution? Are they all letters?"

"Some personal notes." Rody stretched out his hand to organize the manuscripts, without further explanation, he just waved his hand to signal Sodlor and others to leave: "Get ready to go, there is one last place left."

At the same moment, Merlinsera interrupted her meditation state and slowly opened her eyes.

For mages, "meditation" is a way to fill their mana. Compared with spar charging, this method of recovering mana purely by will is obviously much less efficient-most mages need at least several days or even weeks of meditation to recover all their mana. Of course, the corresponding thing is... the stronger the mage, the faster he can recover mana.

And at the level of Merlinsera, it only takes four days to recover all the magic power.

"call"

Taking a deep breath, when the shadow dragon stood up from the stone she was sitting on, the originally stable elements around her gradually began to vibrate—she touched the half-healed wound on her abdomen, and the hesitation in her eyes...was gradually replaced by an indomitable determination .

The dragons never leave any room for hunting, and she almost lost half of her life after several escapes, but this life of fleeing will never end—unless some lost magic circle is used to cover the breath, the special induction between the dragons will definitely be lost. Let the pursuers come again within a few months

She doesn't like the feeling of throwing everything at one's eggs, but right now she has not chosen to open the seal, find the legendary "artifact treasure" left by Solomon and give herself power. This is the only thing she can look forward to.

And what if everything doesn't happen as expected?

She didn't even think about this kind of assumption anymore, because Merlinthra knew that she had no room for failure now.

The elements fluctuated violently. In the past four days, she had already thought of a way to lift the seal, so when her hands began to draw dark purple runes in the air, everything... had already embarked on an irreversible path.

[There are two updates, one update will be released, and the next update will be released after 2 o'clock. After the Chinese New Year, I tried to code as much as possible, and I also sorted out my thoughts. I will drive back to Beijing tomorrow, thinking about changing every three days as much as possible in the future. 】
