Gou is a dark elf in Warhammer

Chapter 285 135. River of Time
After finishing his harsh words, Malekith rushed towards Nurgle Junfeng without hesitation, and cut a deep wound on the oozing bile meat with the Yangyan sword. Nurgle Junfeng's long-necked head was still With bile dripping from its malleable jaw, watching him with fiery eyes.

In the next second, the creature's body swelled up, and the long tentacles were covered with jagged teeth, bursting out from the mass of flesh, trying to wrap around Malekith's waist and throat.

Just when the Edrazer trio behind Malekith wanted to rush forward to fight, he stopped them. He knew that these three were loyal and reliable now, and he didn't want them to be lost here for nothing. And he can easily deal with this disgusting creature in front of him alone.

Malekith didn't hesitate, he cut off the tentacle that was rushing towards him as the demon screamed insane rage, the dirty muscle tentacle parting in the fountain of acid bile, the head of the tentacle bouncing wet on the floor.

At this moment, the creature's entire body seemed to shrink back, and then violently convulsed, it threw itself at Malekith with its huge mouth like a frog swatting at a fly, and he wanted to swallow the whole of Malekith in his stomach.

Malekith ignored the feeble attack of Nurgle's vanguard, and continued to chop off the surrounding tentacles, cutting with the blade of his sword as if the tentacles were pliable vines.He clearly saw the skin around the base of the tentacles bulge, and a new head began to emerge from the depths of the neck, green eyes burning with hatred.

As the head broke free, the gangrenous skin of Nurgle Junfeng stretched out like a fetal membrane, and before his head could make the next move, Malekith, who was also pounced on his face, used his penis The flame sword pierced into his body fiercely.

"Remember! My name is Malekith! I am the Witch King who rules Naggaroth!"

After Malekith finished speaking, the Yangyan sword pierced into Nurgle Junfeng's body began to vibrate violently, followed by a terrible crackling sound, like bursting grease, Nurgle Junfeng's body lost its stability , melted into a spreading pool of bile and carrion, and then a greasy yellow mist rose from the corpse of Nurgle's army.

"There is no wind of magic to support the existence of that demon here, but this is a realm in itself, separate from all other realms. Although the demon has died a second time, he is still not banished back to the realm of chaos, because the pull here makes him There is no way to return. There is no doubt that this is why he chose to stay here." Malekith pointed at the yellow smoke that was still wafting and said to Drusala.

"Your Majesty, this... means that the demon will continue to resurrect and stay here in the near future?" Drusala asked a little confused.

Drusala was better. Although she looked confused, she still vaguely understood. Except for Flanais who went back to find Dacius, Baigne and Celile who stayed there didn't understand anything at all. .

"Time is a river, Drusala, you have to remember this. This place is outside of time! It is separated..." Malekith looked at Drusala and continued, he did not respond directly to Drew LS, but what he said undoubtedly also responded to Drusala. He paused and then added, "Outside of time, of course! Right by the river!"

At this time, Dacius had joined Malekith and the others, and he heard what Malekith said. This was the third time he had heard this sentence in one day.

"This tower is placed in a world beyond time and space, does it still exist in a sense?" Dacius walked over and asked, he has already figured it out, here is also the existence similar to the subspace Chaos Demon Realm, As long as this place is still here, this is the Chaos Demon Realm of the Nurgle army front.

"Did you see the red plain when you came in? The tower on the horizon? That may be the earliest appearance here, maybe the scene before the great invasion, or even the appearance before the Old Sage came to this planet."

After finishing speaking, Malekith didn't wait for the Duruchis to react, and continued, "It's there, it's always in front of us!" Then he looked at Drusala again, and said, "You must use your The magic sent Dacius and me to that mezzanine, and only by finding that node can we truly disintegrate here."

"But...but resonance..." Drusala said hesitantly.

"I have the resonance we need!" Malekith handed another part of the skinned man's skull fragment to Drusala after he finished speaking. After Drusala took the skull fragment, he continued, But this time he laughed, "Although you betrayed my mother, you are worthy of being trusted by Dacius and me, right?"

"No! No! I can't do this! I'm trusted! But the place you're talking about... is not of this world, and that place may be outside the plane, not on the other side. I can open a door The door sends you through, but the door has to be open this way before you can go back. And I don't know how long I can make this door last, the burden is too much. If it fails, you will be trapped forever There, and I..." Drusala did not kneel down in fear, but bowed her head to His Majesty the Witch King first, and then said loudly.

Drusala's unfinished words were interrupted by Dacius, who stretched out his hand to caress her shoulders, and after she turned her head to look at Dacius, Dacius still wanted to She brushed her messy hair behind her long pointed ears, but Dacius noticed that his gloves were dirty and retracted his hands, and Dacius smiled softly at her.

"I believe in you! You can do it." Dacius said with a soft smile to Drusala's fiery gaze.

Just when Dacius and Drusala were about to kiss each other so tiredly, Malekith, who couldn't stand it anymore, interrupted them.

"Oh~ I'm sorry to interrupt both of you before you two start eating. Our adventure is not over yet. This is not a place to be tired of. Maybe that demon will come back soon."

Malekith said with a smile that he knew it would be enough for him to go in alone, but he was still a little uneasy.He was worried that he would go in alone and let Dacius stay outside. Although he trusted Dacius, he still didn't want to gamble with himself, just like Drusala said, if the door is closed, he Maybe he will be trapped in it forever, maybe he will have to go to the Chaos Demon Realm to return to the mortal world, and he doesn't want to take this risk.

The Edresser trio will stay outside and watch Drusala. Malekith clearly knows that Baiye was once his old department. Although Baiye is now loyal to Dacius, but Still loyal to him, Flanais and his Takaya family are Dacius' hardcore, not to mention Celile, who is Dacius' uncle, and they all come from hell The disaster family, they regard family first as their creed and code of conduct.

"Perhaps those Slann magic priests?" Drusala still hesitated.

"This is our adventure, open the door! We will try our luck on the other side. If we succeed, the power to restrain the demon will be invalidated, and the demon will be pulled back to the Chaos Demon Realm. This is our only chance! "

Dacius felt a cold shock and a sense of dislocation all over his body just after speaking. He knew that he had entered the portal. Obviously this place was too weird, or there was no Slann magic priest in the portal of Drusala The reliable and freewheeling, as if he walked into the land of nightmares.

The earth heaved under Dacius' feet, and the sky billowed overhead.The wind whistled and moaned in his ears, but he couldn't feel it against his skin.He looked back and found the oval pearlescent floating in the air.An iridescent mist curled from the edge, allowing him to feel the fragility of the mist, like a foam that could burst at any moment, and he turned his gaze to the dark horizon where the tower stood.

The tower is tall and square, obviously not the work of a lizardman. It was the first time Dacius took a serious look at this building, and he found that it did not belong to any architectural style he knew.The dark and smooth surface gleamed under the light of the sky.The tower seemed much stronger than the chaotic landscape around it, like an island rising from an angry sea.From where he stood, the tower seemed far away.He took a deep breath and started running.

A raven suddenly appeared from a high altitude in the distance, and after circling three times above Dacius' head, it landed firmly on his shoulder.

Dacus didn't greet first, but was on guard. Who knows if the raven that appeared in this weird space was Molaige Heg, or something else, such as the Lord of Change, or someone who knew Two-headed birds of the past and future, or change spirits and the like.

"Order French fries." A voice resounded in Dacius' mind.

Dacius was not relieved until the code connection was successful, unless there was a problem with Molaige Hegg, or he was read directly by Tzeentch himself. In general, Only the two of them knew the code.

"My dear grandma, I haven't seen you for a long time. How did you get here?" Dacius said while reaching out his left hand to try to stroke the raven's head that fell on his right shoulder.

Raven or Morayg Heg avoided Dacius' outstretched hand.

"I sensed your arrival. I just came here to have a look. It is more convenient to come here than to go to the mortal world." The voice of Molaige Hege reappeared in Dacius's mind.

After speaking, the raven flew away and disappeared into the distant sky.

"Come here? It's more convenient than going to the mortal world? Do these elves like being riddlers so much?" Dacius didn't stop, and kept walking forward, thinking while walking.

Soon, Dacius thought about something. Some elves have kingdoms of gods, spaces like subspace and chaotic realm, which means that this is like some kind of kingdom of gods or a strange plane?Molaig Heg came here from her divine kingdom like a guest?I just don't know if this is the kingdom of the ancient gods before the arrival of the ancient sages, or something else.

Dacius clearly knew that in the Lustria Strait, south of Skogi, there was a place called the Dead Skull of the Fallen God.

There is a series of huge stone heads facing the vast ocean. Like the Easter Island statues, these heads have not been properly maintained, and many features have been smoothed by wind and rain, but they are clearly different from any other statues created by the Lizardmen.

Some are reptilian-shaped, some humanoid, but most are indefinable.The eyes are no longer able to peer, and the avatar holds useless tools in its hands.

There is great controversy over these monuments, and no one knows when the heads were erected, with most elven scholars agreeing that the heads are lesser-known members of the Lizardmen's many gods.

But Dacius knew that it wasn't. Lizardmen never worshiped head portraits. He also asked Master Ma, and Master Ma said that these head portraits existed before he appeared. It is said that the Old Sages existed before they came.

"Maybe there's something down there?" Dacius couldn't help muttering when he thought about this.

Dacius discarded his distracting thoughts and continued to run, running like a running athlete.

Soon, Dacius faced a whole new challenge as monsters crawled out of the congealed bloody mud to reach him with claws, scrawny hands, waving tentacles, or barbed hooks.Some are humans, some are elves, and many are twisted monsters as if born from nightmares.Monsters crawled, jumped, flapped and slid towards him as he ran across the plain.

A skeletal creature with a white parchment skeleton, and even more outrageously a scalpless creature with snow-white hair on its head, he stretched out his hand to grab Dacius' throat.

Dacius swung the scarlet sword through the skull's head, and the figure swayed like smoke.A mass of undulating waves slid on the ground, a barbed tentacle wrapped around his leg, the needle-like spikes easily pierce the flesh, making his body cold and numb.He snarled and slashed downward, the blade cutting through the creature uselessly.

"What the hell is this?" Dacius yelled, he felt strange, as if he was the only one who was solid, and these weird things were all incorporeal, but they could hurt him, and he could only Can chop air and phantoms.His vitality was constantly being sucked in, it seemed that these strange things hadn't eaten such sweet and delicious food for a long time.

The previous skeleton condensed into a figure again, and his hand grabbed Dacius' throat.

Dacius aimed at the head of the skeleton with a sword, but he was grabbed by the sword arm by a shriveled elf prince. He looked over and found that this elf prince seemed to be the one he met in the sinister peaks. What's your name?Haskong?

Before Dacius had time to think about it, something bit his leg, and his teeth pierced through the armor and inner lining, but the strange armor didn't make a sharp creaking sound, just like the teeth broke through the armor body, directly Biting on his flesh and blood, the cold seeped into his body relentlessly, consuming his strength, he could hear his heartbeat pounding in his chest.

"Your uncle!" Dacius yelled while struggling.

The monster pulled Dacius down, and he lost his balance and fell. An octopus-like creature crawled to his chest and wrapped its tentacles around his face. looking into his eyes.

If there were no things like Crusu in this world, Dacius would have thought it was Sarnaga who had appeared in front of him.Before he could yell, the octopus' tentacles brushed his lips and crawled across his tongue.

At the critical moment, a force gushed out from Dacius' chest, and then quickly spread to other parts of his body. At that moment, he felt the breath of the sea, as if the evaporated steam of the sea rose from his skin From there, frost spread along his scarlet sword.

The monsters all flinched, except for that strange octopus creature, which was stuck to Dacius' body and could not be freed quickly. Its skin turned black, its eyes turned light blue, and it let out a scream. Smash it into pieces with a single blow from your hand.

The white-haired skeleton backed away from Dacius, and raised his arms, as if to protect himself from harm, and also seemed to beg for forgiveness.

Dacius jumped up with a roar, and mercilessly pierced the scarlet sword blade into the skeleton's chest.The skeleton's body instantly blackened and smashed to pieces on the ground.Then he screamed and got up and kicked while running at full speed. He kicked the elf prince down. After he gave a piercing smile, he stabbed the elf prince in the back of the neck with a sword.

The monster retreated in all directions, leaving Dacius like ripples in a pond.

Dacius killed a giant one-eyed wolf, strangely enough, it seemed that this wolf was also the one he killed on the Sinister Peaks, he stabbed his sword deeply into the wolf's side, and then knocked down two A human sailor in Bretonnian attire, the sailor cried for mercy in a weak and pitiful voice, but he ignored it, and cut off the sailor's head with his sword.

But the strange thing is that Dacius felt that the monsters in front of him seemed endless. After he destroyed one, another one would be spawned immediately, as if this place was like a proving ground, but he was not interested in being like the novel. It has been practiced here for hundreds of 80 years. Although it is said that the time here is frozen, he dare not gamble.

Immediately afterwards, Dacius, who was about to raise the scarlet sword to pursue him, was stunned suddenly, and an even more outrageous scene appeared in front of him. A Drucci's plundering ship was sailing towards him like a boat on dry land. He opened his eyes wide, he didn't take a closer look at what the hordes of monsters on the ship were, and he didn't think that the ship was here to help him, he turned his head and ran away while yelling, he was faster than before Run to the tower.

On the other hand, Malekith's experience was different from that of Dacius. There was only darkness in the distance, and a deep emptiness hit him, pulling him into his embrace.He felt like the midnight armor didn't exist, and a cold wind blew against his face, plunging him into darkness.

When Malekith regained his vision again, he saw Dacius standing beside him. He didn't rush to ask Dacius where this was because he saw the whirlpool still spinning in the distance. Closer than the maelstrom is the Asuryan Temple in front, he knows, he knows, although he doesn't know how he came here suddenly, maybe it might be an illusion, but everything in front of him is too familiar, because He had been here before, and here was one of his oldest and most painful memories!

Malekith wanted to speak and manipulate his body, but he suddenly found that he couldn't. Everything in front of him was a real illusion, and he seemed to be in a projection.He gradually calmed down, and he found himself in the projection as if on a black ark, and Dacius standing beside him was holding a pipe in his mouth, and he kept explaining to the Duruccis around him. What, those Drouches recorded while listening to Dacius' words and nodding from time to time.

"Before all the materials are transferred to Lothern, the defense of the Tower of Doom must be strengthened. Similarly, the area in the northwest of Lothern must be strictly guarded to prevent possible harassment by a small group of troops in the direction of the Kingdom of Caledon." Dark Us breathed out the smoke from his mouth and ordered unhurriedly.

"Where is Ms. Vienne's army now?" Dacius asked after finishing his orders.

"My lord, Loxia's Black Ark Fleet encountered a man-made storm, and they only crossed the straits of the Drifting Islands this morning." Ren replied with his head down.

"It's too slow! Tell her that if she doesn't capture Elsaly (located in the southern sea of ​​Iris) tomorrow, I will give her face!" Before Daxus could say anything, Malekith in the illusion just said.

Dacius didn't say anything. After Ren and a group of Drucci's followers understood, he waved his hand to signal them to go down.

At this time, Malekith outside the illusion could only watch, but from the limited information just released, he knew that Lothern, the capital of the Kingdom of Itain, had been occupied, otherwise he would not be able to ride the black ark in the illusion. Enter the inner seas of Ulthuan.It seems that it was indeed what he and Dacius had planned before, to let a black ark directly wash up on the coast, and from the name, this black ark should have been built later, because he had never heard of it. , there is such a ship as the Tower of Doom among Durucci's black arks.

It was a long period of peace again. Standing there, Malekith and Dacius looked at the Asuryan Temple not far away.

In the depths of the shrine lies the Hinomiya, and it is said that the history of the past, present and future is engraved on the ancient wall in the form of flame script.Legend has it that any visitor who understands the meaning of the inscription on the wall will be permanently cursed, thus knowing the time of his death.

The Asuryan Temple itself is a tall pyramid shape built over the burning fire of the king of the gods.In the center of the temple the flame throbbed and swayed, three times the height of an elf, burning without sound or heat.Embedded in the marble floor tiles and surrounding the central flame, the runes burn with a light that is not entirely from the flame.A phoenix-shaped brazier hangs on the white wall, its wings are folded, and a more magical flame burns inside, filling the entire temple with golden brilliance.

"My lord, before we march towards the White Tower of Hess, should we go to the Asuryan Temple?" Dacius looked at the Asuryan Temple that was getting closer and closer, and put the burnt pipe in his arms , turned his head to Malekith and said deliberately.

"Why!" Malekith in the phantom asked inexplicably.

"Because your father begged him to protect his people at the cost of his life!"

"Asuryan? The thing that turned me into... into this ghost?" Malekith in the illusion said a little angrily.

"You must repeat what your father did, and you know it! Other false kings have come to tease Asuryan under the protection of magic and fire charms, and you must die to live!"

"No! Your words are only true in one thing, and that is that I will die. You give me..." Malekith in the illusion said with a trembling tone.

"I know the shadows and fears in your heart! But you, as the second Phoenix King after Aenarion, must overcome it! This is what you should do!" Malekith continued to utter the words, reaching Keus interrupted Malekith and continued.

The scene was enacted again, and Malekith in the phantom pulled out the Yangyan Sword, and aimed the tip of the Yangyan Sword at Dacius' throat, but Dacius was still the same as the two of them before that Nurgle. It's the same as acting in front of Junfeng.

Dacius took a step towards Malekith, he stared fixedly at Malekith's orange eyes, the blade of Malekith's Sun Flame Sword trembled violently in his hand, Marekis Keith's body and arms were shaking violently.

"I can feel the pain in your heart, my majesty the Phoenix King! What a glorious Phoenix King, instead of suffering and struggling for thousands of years like now." Dacius closed his eyes and shook his head Said with emotion.

"You! You! You! Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?" Malekith was so angry that he couldn't speak, and finally he growled and asked.

"You will not kill me, Malekith! Although we are kings and ministers, I am also your only friend! Remember what I said? It is more difficult to govern this land than to conquer it!" Dacius opened his eyes and looked at Malekith and said calmly.

"My lord of the Phoenix, this is not some kind of omen! It's not even a prophecy! How long do you want to wear this sultry armor? Don't you understand? There has never been a male sorcerer of Drucci or Asur's The archmage can kill you! The one who really kills you is yourself! Because that male sorcerer is you!"

In the phantom, Malekith loosened his hand holding the Yangyan Sword, his whole body trembling violently, and he took a few steps back in disbelief.

Malekith, who was also watching everything, expressed disbelief. He didn't know whether this phantom was the other end of the river of time, or some kind of strange existence was fooling him, trying to provoke the relationship between him and Dacius , Give him such a play.

Malekith outside the illusion wanted to struggle, he wanted to make a sound, he was the same as him in the illusion, he couldn’t accept the facts that Dacius told, but he couldn’t do anything, he could only quietly look at the illusion all of this.

Dacius didn't say anything else, he just stood there quietly, threw the Yangyan sword into the air, then held the hilt of the Yangyan sword, tried to hand it to Malekith, he ignored Malekith With murderous eyes, he looked at Malekith seriously.

"The people! It is the foundation of the country! Those who are killed and those who are killed are your people! Before the next battle comes, complete your rebirth! Don't let our soldiers and soldiers die because of your self-esteem, arrogance and inner pain. The people made unnecessary sacrifices!" Seeing that Malekith did not move, Dacius continued.

"Asuryan's fire rejected me the first time, and it will also reject me the second time!" At this moment, Malekith in the phantom no longer had anger, replaced by pain.

"Fart! You're scared! At that time you had ghosts in your heart, so you shouldn't have climbed out of the holy fire, but you were burned to death and reborn from Nirvana! What kind of Phoenix King is a Phoenix King who can't be reborn from Nirvana!?" Da Keus suddenly growled and questioned loudly.

But Malekith in the phantom no longer responded to Dacius, but turned around and left there quickly, without even taking the Yangyan Sword.

Dacius standing there was suddenly stunned. He didn't seem to expect that Malekith would abandon the Yangyan Sword and turn around and leave. He had no choice but to sigh, took off his cloak and wrapped the Yangyan Sword in it .

As Malekith in the phantom left, Malekith outside the phantom watched in a daze as the phantom in front of him gradually disappeared, and his eyes sank into a dark abyss again, but he did not escape from the phantom. Break free, but another phantom appeared in front of his eyes.

"Look, Your Majesty the Phoenix King, they are already welcoming you." Before the boat docked, Dacius, who was standing by the fence, jumped off first after speaking.

A large number of Phoenix Guards lined up neatly and held their halberds on the grass around the Asuryan Temple. The anointed of Asuryan and the captain of the Phoenix Guard, Kazhuo Yin, stood on the pier, as if waiting What.

Outside the gate of the Asuryan Temple is a row of pillars engraved with reliefs of different patterns. Those reliefs are all different images of Asuryan, or a kind-faced elf father, or a swooping falcon, or It is a flying phoenix.Around these pillars stood many phoenix guards. As Asuryan warriors, they all held halberds, wore golden helmets, and wore silver scale armor, and their snow-white cloaks were painted with red and blue. Embroidered with sea water and flames.

"Let me introduce myself first. I am the future Hand of the Phoenix King, Dacius the Scourge of Hell." Dacius took a few steps forward after finishing speaking. He stretched out his hand and said with a smile, "I know You can't talk, and I don't need you to nod or shake your head, but we can shake hands in a friendly way, right?"

Kazhuoyin was stunned for a moment when he saw the familiar Dacius walking towards him, then he reacted and took a step forward, meeting Dacius' outstretched right hand, and holding it tightly. , held on the inside of Dacius' forearm.

Malekith in the hallucination and Malekith watching the hallucination saw the scene where Dacius and Kadroin shook hands on the pier of the Asuryan Temple.

Outside the hallucination, Malekith had an indescribable feeling. He felt that it was both absurd and outrageous, but also seemed to be expected?
　There should be high energy tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. .
