Planeswalker My Plane War

Chapter 87 Meeting 1
"Haha," the wizard did not answer, but came to the edge of his tent and sat cross-legged.

"Why are you here, I can guess without asking." The old man said. "But... I'm afraid I'm out of reach." He looked at Nan Ling. "Look, if someone doesn't care about my identity as a great witch, then I'm actually a bad old man."

"You are... a great witch... a witch?" Zhang Cheng asked suddenly.Such a crude environment made him suddenly realize something.A great witch that can make the princes fear, in theory, should live in a big city and enjoy the many offerings of the lord.This is not a fantasy, obviously as long as the wizard wants it, he can do it.

"Are you also an alien?" The old man didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically. "Not quite like... well, no... you are indeed an alien. You came to me," he said slowly. "There must be something you want to ask me, right?"

Zhang Cheng didn't know how the other party saw it, but he still saluted according to the etiquette of this world.

"Your Excellency the wizard, I do have something I want to ask you. I want to know," Zhang Cheng decided to ask himself the most critical task first. "Where was the altar where the emperor of the summer room used to sacrifice to heaven?"

The sorcerer looked puzzled for a moment, but then smiled again. "It's a really good question, because I don't think anyone in Xia Xu can answer your question except me. Because if you search for it with common sense, you can't find the altar if you search all over the Xia Ruins. But in fact," He pointed around with his fingers. "This is the altar."

"What?" Zhang Cheng looked around, this place... This place that he secretly named "Underground Warehouse Area" was actually the altar where the emperor offered sacrifices to heaven?There really is nothing here!Is this place also an altar?
"What do you think the altar looks like?" the wizard asked with a smile. "Do you need a small table to place offerings? Or do you need to be close to the sky in a high mountain and steep place?" he said. "In fact, these are not the key, the real key is the emperor. Once the emperor is here to sacrifice to the sky, then this is the altar. As for what decorations here, whether it is a high platform or not, it doesn't matter. As long as the emperor officially held a ceremony, and There was no desecration after that, and that's where the altar is."

The meaning of this sentence probably means that the incense burner, the offering table, the high platform, and various furnishings are all secondary, and the key is the special location.Zhang Cheng can only understand so.Of course, this also means that the altar is actually worthless.As long as the emperor is willing, he can make as many as he wants.

It turns out that this is... the altar.

Although it still felt weird, Zhang Cheng knew that there was no reason for the wizard to deliberately deceive himself.In other words, the first task is easy to complete?He just needs to stay here and wait patiently, and then he can wait for the group of Inun Rong messengers.

However, the main quest has become clear, but Zhang Cheng has another doubt: why is the sorcerer living in seclusion here?And it's a seclusion like an ascetic, so there's no entourage around at such a long age?There are nurses in nursing homes on earth!

Also, just a few Rakshasa demons and lich...they came for the witches?

"Your Majesty," Zhang Cheng felt a little rude, but he knew it was better to ask.After all, my friendship with the witches is relatively shallow, so even if it messes up, it's not a big deal.On the contrary, Nanling's side is more or less sheltered by witches, and it is difficult to ask a lot of things. "Why are you hiding here? I heard people say that you don't want others to disturb you?"

"Yes." The old man glanced at Zhang Cheng with some surprise in his eyes. "Whether I like it or not, many witches will come to visit me. I'm old and I really don't want to be disturbed, so..."

"Witch came to visit you... for what?"

"Of course I was asked to follow the gods they believed in," the wizard said.

"Why did they..."

"Hahahaha..." The old man laughed, interrupting Zhang Cheng's question. "You want to know the mystery of the Great Witch? Well," he smiled bitterly, "it doesn't matter anyway. I'll tell you the truth. These guys are here for me, and I'm not here just for that. Avoid disturbing..." He paused. "You know that there are other mysteries in this Xia Ruins." He said on the side. "In the past, the capital of the summer house was moved to the capital, and it was all for this mystery."

"What mystery?" Nan Ling asked this question this time.

"Underground here," said the sorcerer. "There is an evil spirit that was sealed by Haotian. In the past, Xia Shi tried to drive evil spirits, so it was decided to be here. But they tried for many years and finally determined that the evil spirit was uncontrollable, so they moved the capital and left."

"Then...you..."

"An old man is a bit arrogant, so he just wants to challenge himself," said the wizard. "Let me tell the truth, so far I have no clue, but I have attracted coveted people. Haha, but they look up to me. In the past, the emperor of the Xia Dynasty was the emperor of the emperor, combined with the power of all races in the world, and countless princes and gods. What is difficult to accomplish with only mutual help, how can an old man like me have any chance? If nothing else, I can't even pass the first level."

He pointed to the passageway not far away, "If you don't believe me, you can try it."

As mentioned earlier, this "warehouse" has a large space, with five or six entrances and exits in all directions, some large and small.Zhang Cheng and the others came through one entrance, while Hu Fang and the others just left another entrance.These entrances and exits are very spacious, not to mention people, even a car can enter and exit freely.But the entrance to which the sorcerer referred was a small entrance.

Wait, this underground warehouse area...

Zhang Cheng tried his best to find relevant clues from his memories.Then he suddenly realized that this place was actually near the entrance.

In reality, he followed Nan Ling, and it took so much hard work to get to this position.But in the game, this is the starting point of the dungeon.That is to say, the character controlled by the player enters the dungeon through the entrance and exit of the "palace area" in the above-ground part of Free City, and then directly arrives at the "underground warehouse area".

But in the game... is there such a small entrance?No, it should be said, are there so many entrances and exits?It's a pity that I really didn't have a deep impression at the beginning, and I didn't remember the details of the free city dungeon, so Zhang Cheng only had doubts, but he couldn't be sure.

Zhang Cheng and Nan Ling looked at each other and walked towards the entrance with some doubts.It was a very narrow passage, just like a person could enter.Zhang Cheng was in front and Nan Ling was behind, and the two walked in.

Everything seems to be working, no expected obstacles or anything like that.Yes, nothing.No hallucinations, no invisible walls, no common obstacles like aggressive heat, lightning, poison gas, etc.

The distance between the front and back is only 20 meters. The two people have already passed through the passage, and the front suddenly becomes clear.

However, after the two of them looked around clearly, they were both shocked.Because they recognized that this is the underground warehouse area they just left.The wizard was on the edge of the tent not far away, looking at the two of them with a smile.

What is this?Space warping?Space crack?Instant teleportation?Or something like that.

The two tried again.Of course, the end result was no different.And you don't feel any difference during the whole process, and you can't tell where the problem is.The two could only go back to the wizard's tent.

"I have tried many things," said the wizard. "The final conclusion is that there is no clue at all, and no signs can be found." He said with a self-deprecating laugh. "Of course that's right. What Xia Shi couldn't do in the past, how could I be such a mere sorcerer..."

His voice suddenly stopped, and the expression on his face made Zhang Cheng instantly understand what was going on.

Zhang Chengmeng turned his head, and in the process of turning back, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed a figure shaking behind him.He drew his sword in an instant, and found that the three guys who had just left had returned.The two Rakshasa demons are flanking at the moment.

These guys... didn't leave at all!They just pretended to leave, paralyzed Zhang Cheng into two, and then came back with a carbine!

No, maybe not paralysis, just temptation.If there are reinforcements behind Zhang Cheng, it is estimated that they will choose to leave.But after confirming that there were only two newcomers, they decided to do it.

In the previous battle in the wilderness, with a three-to-one ratio, Zhang Cheng also won by relying entirely on sneak attacks and flukes on the premise that the opponent obviously underestimated the enemy's carelessness.

This is the strength of the Rakshasa Demon or Tiger Fang.Tiger Fang - even by the standards of the world's strong, it is a very dangerous enemy.The kind that is enough to make humans feel terrified.At least as far as Zhang Cheng knew, if it weren't for the small number of such creatures and their low fertility, it would be difficult to conquer the world.

In the dark underground space, the roar of gunpowder erupted again.Huge sound waves spread out along the underground space.

Nanling shot again.

The sound of gunfire was so sudden that even Hu Fang, who was attacking Zhang Cheng's side, was shocked by the sound, and his pace naturally slowed down.He looked at his companion on the other side with some suspicion.When they raided just now, they all saw Nan Ling pull out a flintlock gun.Even if they didn't know what a flintlock was, they understood that it was undoubtedly a weapon.So when the Rakshasa demon pointed the gun at him, he sensed the danger and made an evasive action.

But he still underestimated the musket.His movements weren't big enough to avoid completely.At this moment, he was looking at the wound on his body in surprise.The bullet ripped open his clothing, inflicting a wound under his rib.

At this moment, the two sides suddenly became a stalemate, and no one dared to move.

In Zhang Cheng's eyes, their disadvantage has not changed.Because both of them could see that, no matter whether the injury under the rib was a minor injury or a serious injury, at least it was not a fatal injury.In addition, it is not clear whether this is the bullet that broke the defensive force field of the tiger side, or the tiger side just didn't release his defense force field at all.After all, the Rakshasa demon can release or put away the defensive force field at any time, so as to facilitate the companions to strengthen themselves with spells.

In the eyes of the tiger side, firearms are something they have never seen before.They were completely unaware that there was such a weapon in the world, making such a loud noise and having such power.More importantly, this thing is obviously unavoidable, and it is simply not something that the biological visual system can fight against.

However, this standoff is destined to be short-lived.Zhang Cheng knew that although it was a dual cultivation of magic and martial arts, the Rakshasa demon was more inclined to magic than hand-to-hand combat.This time the Rakshasa demon didn't use the spell to attack remotely, it was probably because of the witch.After all, these guys didn't dare to litter with spells, so as to avoid hurting the witches as much as possible.But that is a choice when the winning ticket is in hand. Who cares about this if you are really anxious!
There was a sudden sound of heavy footsteps from behind.The confronting sides were surprised, but they saw a new person coming at a passageway on the side.

More than one person came. The man in front was wearing armor, holding a medium-sized square shield in one hand and an axe in the other.The others behind him were blocked by him and could not be seen for a while.

The pretentious criminal groaned and stretched out a hand, as if pinching something in the void.Then, he clenched his fist viciously, and there was a crisp sound of metal breaking in his palm.

He threw the thing in his hand violently, and several fragments flew around, and one piece flew to Zhang Cheng's side.Zhang Cheng recognized that it was a piece of metal, a weapon like a flying knife or dart.Pretending that the perpetrator was attacked just now?

The ability to crush metal flying knives with one hand shows that the power of feigning persecution... is not something that humans can do at all.This kind of power, it is estimated that it is no problem to tear people alive with bare hands.

But the shield warrior over there was unmoved and continued to move forward in small steps.More people appeared behind him.Not two or three, but four or five as soon as they come out. I don't know if there is any backup later.But no matter whether there are people behind, these uninvited guests are obviously ready for battle.Someone took out a strong crossbow and stood on the side ready to launch, while the other two covered the shield warrior and moved forward slowly together.

Zhang Cheng saw something, and his entire body shook instantly.He couldn't help turning his head to look at Nan Ling, and the two exchanged a surprised look.Because they actually wrote words on the square shield.

Very neat two lines.Not the kind of words that can be understood because of the translator, but the words that two people can understand directly.One side is simplified characters, the other side is bird language. "I am an Earthling" and "I am an Earthling".

Who is Zhang Cheng remembering?Yes, that was Wu Lan who had agreed with him to meet at Xia Ruins.He had heard Wu Lan say before that in order to avoid accidental injuries and to meet more travelers, he had written simplified characters and bird language on his clothes.It was for this reason that he met Lao Liu, who transmigrated into an alien race and had nothing to do with humans.

"The King of Heaven and Earth Tiger!" A strangely unfamiliar language suddenly sounded from the other side.Obviously, what Wu Lan noticed was probably the flintlock gun in Nanling's hand.

In this barbaric era, people who can produce muskets don't need to ask to know who they are.

"Pagoda Town River Demon!"
