Returning from the abyss

Chapter 498 The Road to the Watchtower

In Juno's voice, the bodies of the two creatures inflated again.Lu Ning could see the astonishment in Yilael's eyes, but she was actually a little surprised herself.

There were so many complicated things in this scene that Lu Ning didn't spend much time thinking about the meaning of the mission itself.Among the many tasks that are subtly related to each other, only the collection tasks of the Crystal of Light and the Crystal of Darkness seem to have nothing to do with others, which is abnormal in itself.

Obviously, most of the people in this main quest are finished by collecting it, but now it seems... I am afraid it is a hint from the distribution center, that is, everyone's identity can use these two crystals to strengthen their combat power before the last moment.

Lu Ning relied on reading magic books to forcibly improve herself, and Eliel chose to be injected with magic books, which are actually evil ways - they can do this because they don't need to think about the consequences.But Juno is following the right path, the "way of survival" that has been subdued by the distribution center from the very beginning.

Thinking of this, Lu Ning couldn't help laughing.She doesn't regret her choice. It can even be said that even if she knows the effect of crystallization, she will continue to use the magic book to raise her combat power to the peak level to cope with the current situation. This kind of thing varies from person to person. Nothing to regret either.

And these two monsters undoubtedly had a strong oppressive force on Yilael, just like Lu Ning always wanted to save his magic power, Yilael's magic power was only at the apprentice level, otherwise he wouldn't have to summon those black mist demons to come out constantly Replenish yourself with magic power.Under the pressure of the light and dark beasts, the boulders ejected from the cracks were only a one-sided consumption of Eliel.

"It's quite capable... you guys."

It didn't take a moment for Elie to notice the problem. He immediately closed the crack, turned around and ran down the stairs. At this time, the area was ignited by the soul fire.Although these flames were not enough to hurt Lu Ning, they were very difficult to extinguish.

"He's going to run!" Garcia pulled his hands in front of her body, and a lightning gun was formed instantly. She aimed it slightly, and the thunder gun hit the stairs, splitting into dozens of thunderbolts and blasting deep into the depths.

"He has a shield." Lu Ning said.

Garcia nodded: "What you want is a shield. If you read it correctly, it should be something that has the function of magic offset."

Juno immediately asked, "His location!"

"The magic power disappears at twenty degrees to the left, about ten meters away."

Following Garcia's words, Juno immediately made a second decision. The light-wrapped beast opened its mouth wide, and the powerful light blasted out at the position Juno said. It was completely unable to stop the light, and even started to make a broken sound.

"Humph!"

After going down the stairs, Eliel immediately hid aside to prepare for a sneak attack, and immediately swept out his shield, completely erasing his part of the light, and directly pierced the cracking wall with the dagger in his hand.

"Hell Giant God!"

The fire began to spread along the cracks, cutting out a huge human-shaped outline on the wall, and then the wall fell off, propping up the surrounding bricks, tiles and rubble, and slowly got up amidst the violent vibrations.Its body pierces the ceiling directly above its head.

"This kid is quite capable." Garcia propped up the earthen wall to block the falling gravel, "Juno, can your voodoo phantom be able to deal with this guy?"

"I don't know until after the fight, but it seems that I probably don't have any energy left... Where's Lilian?" Juno was answering when he suddenly realized that there was someone missing at the scene.

"Of course she went to do what she is best at."

After summoning the giant god, Eliel was almost emptied of his magic power. He stumbled and continued to walk deep, still gnashing his teeth: "No matter how adventurous it is, the distribution center can't allow a tourist to have one-to-many... Or did I not pay attention to the collection of some strengths? Damn it, it will take ten minutes for the regenerated demon to continue replenishing my magic power, so I can only count on the giant god..."

He turned his head sharply, blocked it with his shield, and knocked Lu Ning's dagger stabbed from behind.

"You didn't hide your killing intent, Lilian."

"It's not necessary. To be honest, your vigilance is much higher than last time." Lu Ning said sarcastically.

"It seems that you secretly arranged angels... The idea of ​​changing positions is also very flexible. But, do you think I can't beat you in my current state?" He touched his waist and pulled out another thick blade this time. sharp knife.

"Before this, I didn't know you were a butcher." Lu Ning sneered, "This knife looks much inferior to the one you just had."

"Weapon, as long as it can be used." Accompanied by Eliel's gloomy voice, the soul fire ignited on the sharp knife again, "Of course I thought about the possibility of someone chasing after me!"

The flame opened up the space again. Although it was smaller than before, Eliel did not use the same attack as before, but sprayed a liquid with a strong pungent smell from the space!

"The long river of hell, even time will be reduced to dry bones!"

"Speak less useless lines and you may live a better life than you do now."

Lu Ning dodged to avoid the splash of the liquid, kept walking, and continued to move forward, while Yilael also cut out small space cracks while retreating, and disorderly water streams and flames were constantly ejected from it, quickly Turn the place you pass into a corridor of death.

At this moment, a gem roared towards his face, and Eliel immediately swung his sharp knife, but unexpectedly, the soul fire collided with the gem, and the gem was not burned. Although the gem bounced away with the blade, The knife also came out of his hand due to the impact, and fell on the ground farther away.

Lu Ning stood in a safe space, maintaining the posture of popping gems.

"You dare not go back and pick up the weapon," she said.

"That...is not your magic."

"It's a gem of reality, a gift from a friend." Lu Ning smiled slightly, "I still have it here, as long as you have any flaws, it will find your heart, head, throat, any fatal part of your body, I can assure you that your magical defenses are useless."

Eliel flicked his arm, and dropped a butterfly knife from his cuff.

"I still have a lot of weapons."

Lu Ning laughed; "Weapon? Or magic power? Have you figured out what your problem is?"

She didn't eat Yilael's threat at all, and for Yilael, he really felt that his magic power was insufficient, which was fatal.Of course, he can complete the counterattack by directly liberating the last resort here, but after that, he may lose the opportunity to participate in the final event.

After making many judgments in an instant, Eliel finally settled down.

"You dare not come here now."

Those cracks only require him to provide magic power at the moment of opening, but now the cracks he created have provided him with a safe space. Lu Ning can only use long-range to attack himself. He is not afraid of magic. For the physical attack method just now, just avoid it. Just open it.He has almost mastered the background of an alchemist. Lu Ning's biggest reliance should be on alchemy bombs and alchemy arrays. If she had the hole cards generated by the light and dark crystals before, she would have used them already, and it would not be too late. Will be here to talk to him so much.

"Although I do have a certain loss of strength, you don't have that much advantage, do you? If you could kill me, you should have done it long ago. Now you are standing there and talking to me, isn't it just buying time to hold off? Me? When your two companions win the fight and come to help you, you can win, right?"

Lu Ning froze for a moment when she heard this.

"Did I hit it? Your purpose is to delay time, that is to say, you don't have a way to kill me stably!" Yilael pointed at Lu Ning with a butterfly knife, "But don't forget, I You can also use long-range attacks here!"

The soul fire gushed out from the tip of the knife and shot towards Lu Ning like machine gun bullets. Although most of them were engulfed by the flames and water jetting out from the middle, they still came to Lu Ning because there were enough of them.She dodged immediately, but the pursuit just now made there are some traps behind her, so the dodge seemed somewhat embarrassing.Fortunately, Eliel didn't have much magic power, so he stopped after launching a round of attacks.

"I know how long the giant can last... and the first regenerated demon is about to recover, and my magic power can be replenished in an instant. The time you need is exactly what I need." Eliel gasped He thought roughly, "After all, I've dragged enough time first."

He saw Lu Ning get up in some embarrassment, and at the same time, a cloud of black mist gathered around him again, and a brand new soul fire was formed in it.Eliel immediately stretched out his hand, and the full magic power was right in front of his eyes——

"Three, two, one."

Lu Ning's voice echoed crisply in the corridor.Yilael turned her head abruptly and looked in Lu Ning's direction. There was a crack in the hell river gushing out from her side, but the water fell on her and immediately turned into a gray-black mist, drifting away behind her.And the moment Lu Ning's "one" sound fell, she raised her hand and pointed her finger straight at herself, as if responding to this action, all the cracks suspended between the two stopped gushing at the same moment .

He saw Lu Ning's smile, and a thin silver thread spewed out from her fingertips, or the palm of her half clenched fist. The momentary sense of danger immediately made Yilael give up the soul fire at hand, and twisted The body raised the shield, and even let out a meaningless roar.

when.

This was the sound of the thin silver wire hitting the shield. It was so clear that Eli could even see the splash of water above the edge of the shield.

"water?"

Lu Ning's finger only slid two centimeters from left to right, and for Yilael's side, it covered a range of nearly three meters horizontally.

Within these three meters, where the silver line passes, everything is divided into two—of course, in this empty corridor, the so-called "everything" is just Yilael.

His upper body slid down from the neat cut surface, revealing half of the heart, two alveoli, ribs and other internal organs. The anti-magic armor and the magic-negating shield did not have any defensive effect at all. The blood spurted out from the body, pushing The lower half of his body fell slowly.

The cutting process only lasted a second, and after a second, those streams of water and flames sprayed out again.Lu Ning put down her hands and scratched her hair with some headaches: "Is this thing not going to disappear even after the caster is dead? Fortunately, it can still go around for a while."

She stuffed the small black square in her hand back into her pocket.Although Eliel was the one who opened the cracks in space, he only communicated with a piece of hell world.He didn't realize that the flames and water flow had a certain time pattern, and it took Lu Ning a little time to calculate the one second of the common pause. However, using water cutting through slight heating does require an undisturbed output environment.

"Sure enough, the stronger the strength, the more tricks I can use... I don't have to have someone to help me if I want to kill someone." Lu Ning carefully bypassed the cracks from both sides of the corridor, and came to the side of Eliel's body .It's just that this person's adventure was as difficult to find as Lu Ning's World Stone, so she gave up after flipping through it twice.

"Lilian! That big stone man suddenly collapsed by himself, I knew you could win!" Garcia and Juno ran over from behind, and they understood the situation in the corridor.

"In short, Eliel has already solved it, can we continue going up?" Lu Ning stood up.

"Ah...well, there is good news." Juno raised his finger and pointed to it.

"What? Oh, it wouldn't be..."

The three returned to the place where they had just fought, and the giant god had turned back into a pile of stones, piled up on the ground, and the good news Juno said was just above.

"This big guy smashed the roof and just opened a shortcut for us. From the map, we can go up directly from here and take a spiral staircase to reach the place leading to the top of the tower." Juno Said.

"That saved a lot of effort." Lu Ning raised her head and looked at the hole, "How do we get up?"

"We are magicians." Garcia snapped his fingers, and the pile of stones surged up immediately, turning into steps.

"A senior magician is awesome." Lu Ning shrugged.

The three of them quickly arrived at the upper floor along the stairs, and the spiral staircase was not far away. Juno led the way and did not encounter any danger here. When they reached the top floor, it looked like a narrow tower. , but the windows look out onto a beautifully landscaped garden.

"Is the sky garden outside? But it will take a lot of time to enter from here." Lu Ning glanced at a nearby door, which was almost integrated with the stone wall. There were a lot of magic runes outlined on it, and it was obvious that still in operation.

"Above is the top of the tower, the watchdog, and the place where the Stone of Eternity is stored." Juno pointed, "Of course, we also have to be prepared to encounter difficult enemies there."

"Speaking of...do you know what the purpose of this man behind the scenes is?" Garcia asked suddenly.

"His main plan is basically carried out under Heinz's plan, and it is difficult to separate it from it, so it is not easy to judge the purpose." Lu Ning said, and Juno also agreed.

"But there must be a plan, right? Heinz must be because of ambition, but since he is not with Heinz but has other plans, then the purpose should be different." Garcia said, "If we can judge accurately This purpose may be helpful in the future.”

"Really?" Lu Ning also thought about it.

"After all, the target of our suspicion is Liszt, and the reputation of this magician emperor is very good. He has taught tens of thousands of students in spells, and there are thousands of disciples who have taught them personally. People think that he Will choose to retire like Parcival." Juno said.
