The knight in the abyss

Chapter 367 Living Creatures Gallery
Lancelot took a few steps forward to look at another 'portrait' on the wall.In the painting, there are a few Hongyan love assassins who are running towards the distance with their backs to the audience, but for some reason they turn their heads to look behind, and then they are frozen in that moment forever.

Next to this painting is another team of elf archers. They are standing or squatting, the longbows in their hands have been drawn, and some are aiming, as if they are about to shoot deadly arrows at the audience outside the frame in the next second. an arrow.

There are many fighters of different races in the painting next to it, all of them have in common that they are facing the audience outside the frame, with expressions of extreme shock on their faces.It's a very unsettling experience to be stared at by so many terrified faces, but perhaps the Mother of Demons herself enjoys admiring her own masterpieces enough to keep them in a collection.

"Hey, these people are not simple." Colonwell checked the paintings with him, and the skull noticed more details, "For example, these elves, have you noticed the special pattern on their breastplates? It's Mithril, just like Brutal's hammer, such a set of armor is not cheap...and those dwarves over there, have you seen the gemstones on their helmets and weapons..."

"These people should be the most powerful heroes among the defenders for countless centuries." Lancelow rubbed his chin, looking at a group of fully armed knights on another mural.They are riding on horses wearing heavy horse armor, with huge lances under their arms, and they are charging towards the people outside the screen. Even though they have been frozen into a two-dimensional image, they can still feel the rush murderous look.

"So we're going to..." Skull didn't finish speaking, but was interrupted by Lancelow's raised arm.The meaning of his action is very clear, and everyone has already formed a subconscious reaction to this action. Once they see it, they will immediately stop whatever they are doing, including talking.

"Is there an enemy?" Colonwell switched to the spiritual link with Lancelow, and at the same time quickly lowered himself, ready to pretend to be a skull that fell on the ground.

"There are two, walking towards us." The owner's reply came from the mind link, "The glabra, most likely it is the guard here."

"What should we do?" Even though the two parties were talking through telepathy at the moment, Cromwell still couldn't help whispering, "With your ability, you should be able to bypass it, right?"

"Indeed." Lancelot nodded lightly, "But I have other plans..."

These two glaubers are part of the Pale Night Honor Guard.Many tanar'ri aspire to be at the mercy of the Demon Mother, to become dominant pit lords like her famous children.But only those who have really served her know how moody this ancient demon who has lived from ancient times to the present is.

This situation seems to have improved in the near future, and the mother of demons has become less impulsive, but the punishment for subordinates who failed to complete the task has become extremely harsh.Just about a month ago, a group of glabrats who went on an escort mission returned empty-handed, and the mother of demons turned them all into monstrosities in front of everyone, and then threw them into the dungeon below.

The two glaucuses sometimes went on patrol there, and they were able to spot their former colleagues and stop for a moment to enjoy the delightful wailing.But these wailings also reminded them of the dire consequences of disappointing the Mother of Demons.

Earlier today, a special prisoner was brought to the torture room of this bone castle by General Urgog himself. The two of them did not see the prisoner with their own eyes, but all the rumors in the castle pointed out that there was an extremely absurd, but The truth is, that captive was a succubus paladin!

The higher-ranking lieutenants under the Mother of Demons knew very well that a large-scale battle against Melanton Burgh had been planned for a long time, and the three main armies 'Mother's Whip', 'Soul Wailing' and 'Broken Bone Calling' had been They are all expanding, and the number has reached the limit that the demon commanders can control.

This battle is different from any previous one.Normally, even if only one legion reached full strength, those impatient commanders would rush to attack the south, but this time under the strict order of Cang Ye himself, none of the legion soldiers could rush to Hofen On the south bank of the Stan River, vent their desire to destroy and kill for too long.

This restraint is far more difficult than it sounds, but with the help of Urgog, the Mother of Demons has indeed done it.Now, her legion is bigger than ever, and all the demons believe that the day when they can kill to their heart's content will soon come.

And this succubus paladin prisoner was like a fuse, and all the plans suddenly began to be put into action.But for some reason they don't understand, Urgog, the supreme commander of the demon legion, stayed in the dungeon of the Bone Castle, while Cang Ye himself took over the command of the 'Mother Whip' legion and went to the front line.

This unusual signal seems to prove that the Mother of Demons is convinced that this battle will completely end the remnants of Erath, and that Andrinar will soon return to the control of the ancient abyss lord.For the demons who are forced to stay in this bone castle, this is not good news—no demon would be willing to miss this carnival. In fact, many low-level guards have deserted, But the two glaubers had no guts to join them.

The wails of those monsters in the dungeon are very beautiful.

Complaining to each other about each other's bad luck, the two glaucuses patrolled a predetermined route.In front is the Living Art Gallery of the Mother of Demons. If anyone has any doubts about the strength of this abyss lord who seems not interested in fighting for power, a stroll here will definitely dispel such stupid thoughts.

But the place has no shortage of intruders, and the heroes trapped in the living gallery are fascinating to all.Warriors from the heavens try to rescue the legendary greats, while some daring demons covet those pure and powerful souls.

At this moment, the two glamorous demons heard a slight abnormal sound at the same time, which sounded like the sound of metal touching stone.The two huge demons immediately became alert. Now that the mother of demons has left her castle, it is the perfect time for the thief to commit crimes.

They looked at each other and leaned towards the direction of the sound together. At the same time, they were ready to cast spells. A dispelling magic spell and a deterrent decree were ready to go.

Turning a corner, the demons found a long sword stuck on the floor of the intersection ahead at some point, with a skull on the hilt, which looked like the tombstone of a certain wilderness grave.
