Heart of the Castle

Chapter 755 The blood curse broke out, the crisis line

The giant bear transformed by the Great Elder of Odessa walked heavily through the narrow alleyway of the ruins, and the sound it made was enough to wake up a whole team of sleeping human soldiers.But even their cautious advance didn't make much sense. The fleeing dark elf might have already brought news of the attack to his companions.

Larry Moonbow, the secret elf archer, frowned slightly. The giant bear's footsteps and heavy breathing seemed too noisy in the silent night, so that the strange singing that always lingered in his ears was covered up.He could only rely on his general impression to lead the way ahead, his movements erratic like a silent ghost, and the last three throwing arrows were tightly clasped in the palm of his right hand.

What surprised him was that the corpse of the dark elf who was killed by the throwing arrow was still placed in the same place, and the posture of falling to the ground was the same as before. It seemed that the dark elves didn't pay attention to the corpse of their companions at all.Not far behind the corpse is the broken wall, in which the purple-black light is still shining, and the high-pitched and mournful sound of dark songs reappears in the ears, every word is like a vicious curse, cursing all the good things in the world .

"Sure enough, those traitors who turned their backs on the light!" After turning into a giant bear, the great elder Odessa seemed to have moved closer to the wild bear man. The thumping sound of war drums, "The lost souls are unforgivable, return to the embrace of the golden tree!"

With a deep and powerful growl, the giant bear suddenly strode towards the place where the purple-black light was emitting and accelerated the charge. The rubble and debris flew under his heavy footsteps, and even almost hit Larui Moonbow, who couldn't dodge it.

"Elder, be careful of the dark elves' ambush!" The elf secret archer was taken aback by this sudden scene, and hastily reminded him.However, it was too late, and on both sides of the road where the giant bear charged, several lurking shadows suddenly stood up, all holding exquisitely shaped poison-tempering crossbows in their hands.

Larry Moonbow waved his arm without thinking, and the three throwing arrows flew towards the target closest to him. Afterwards, he didn't even care about the inspection results. With a tilt of his shoulder, the elf bow had already jumped into his hand, and the bowstring was hooked at the same time. A long arrow, moving so fast that it is almost impossible to see.

However, the speed of change in the battle situation is faster than that of the elf secret archer.Except for the dark elf who was being attacked, he bent his body to avoid it, and the other dark elves shot poisonous crossbows at the giant bear at the same time.The fat bear's paws waved wildly in front of him, swaying away the first two, and then caught the next two. However, the angle of the fifth crossbow was very tricky, and it was shot through the gap between the bear's paws. Nailed on the shoulders of the giant bear.

The Odessa Great Elder paused for a moment, and the second wave of crossbow arrows followed one after another, causing his chest, ribs and legs to be injured at the same time.

"Odessa Great Elder!"

"Shot, kill him!"

Larry Moonbow's voiceless exclamation and the fervent cheers of the dark elves resounded at the same time. A dark elf—seems to be the guy who narrowly escaped not long ago—dropped his hand crossbow, leaped over the low wall as fast as lightning, and raised his hand. He picked up a dark and dull poison-tempered dagger, and stabbed at the heart of the giant bear.

A burst of poisonous arrows shot towards Larry Moonbow, forcing him to bend over to dodge.The eyes of the elf secret archer burned with anxious flames, but the elf bow is different from the throwing arrow, and cannot be used freely in a narrow space, even if he is the only elf secret archer in the Moon Whisper Forest.If he was given 1 minute, he would be sure to sneak to another direction to launch an attack. However, Larry Moonbow didn't have 1 minute, and the dagger that stabbed the Great Elder of Odessa didn't even give him the interval of a heartbeat.

The dark elf let out a scream to signify victory, and the ending of joy echoed in the air before it turned into a wail of panic.The giant bear's ability to resist the sleeping toxin was beyond everyone's expectations. The fat bear's paw easily grabbed the dark elf's arm. The contrast between the two was like an adult and a child.

Although the dark elf's slender arms had excellent strength obtained through long-term training, they could not change the huge physiological gap. The dagger's gleaming black blade rested on the fur in front of the giant bear's chest, and it was difficult to move forward even a centimeter.The dark elf let out a scream mixed with fear and frustration, and then his whole body was blown away by an irresistible force, smashing towards the priestess who was frantically performing the blood curse ceremony.

The priestess let out a strange whistling, and waved her arms continuously in a series of frantic gestures. Following her gestures, the purple-black flame suddenly rose, leaping ten meters above the ground, and the tongue of flames engulfed the dark elf's body in it .

As if the soul-freezing screams resounded through the sky, Larry Moonbow almost dropped the elf bow he was holding tightly, and covered his ears with his hands, even the giant bear transformed by the Great Elder of Odessa looked like Delirious.If those dark elves could seize the opportunity to launch an attack, they would definitely be able to seriously injure the giant bear and the elf secret archer, and maybe even eliminate them in one fell swoop.However, they were obviously hit harder by the screams, and they all fell down trembling, and the sound of poisoned hand crossbows and daggers falling to the ground was continuous.

The screams didn't last long. When Larry Moonbow regained consciousness, the light of Yinyue Maya hadn't deviated from the top of the sky.The giant bear recovered faster than him, and was staggering towards the dark blood curse eight magic circle.The priestess made a provocative gesture, and the dark elves lying on the ground immediately stood up involuntarily, swaying their bodies and dancing frantically, approaching the purple-black flame, and continued to frantically surround the flame. Wu, filled the remaining missing positions in the Eight Demon Formation.

The giant bear's heavy footsteps shook the ground, but the priestess easily stopped the charge with just a single gesture. As she stretched out her hands forward, the surrounding air suddenly turned into some kind of very viscous transparent glue .The giant bear roared furiously, and the powerful natural magic power flowed through the muscles of the whole body, striving to move forward in the viscous glue, but the movement was as slow as a snail, which made the dark elf priestess let out a high-pitched laugh full of mockery Voice.

A bright silver light shot out from Larry Moonbow's hand, and the air was suddenly disturbed by howling waves. The silver alloy armor-piercing arrow produced in the heart of the castle has the ability to destroy demons and armor. After the archer's unique technique is shot, it is even more radiant with strands of emerald green life magic.

The fierce battle that took place in the dark fortress not long ago can prove that even the demon lords, who are wearing thick armor with powerful dark magic, and have strong physical defense capabilities, dare not underestimate the silver alloy armor-piercing arrows shot by the sharpshooters.More than one abyssal demon lord died of hatred in the dense arrow rain, and even the dread lord Charlemagne himself left behind the scars brought by the killing arrows shot by Sir Grace and Larry Moonbow with all their strength. trauma.

The bright silver light split through nearly two meters of air filled with viscous colloid, and the speed decreased rapidly every centimeter it advanced, and then the silver alloy armor-piercing arrow was suspended in the air without any effect, even advancing faster than the giant bear. The distance is even shorter.

Larry Moonbow let out an annoyed cry, and the bowstring of the elf bow opened again. The elf secret archer had tried his best, but the second silver-alloy armor-piercing arrow advanced only a few centimeters further than the previous one. .

The Great Elder of Odessa panted hard, and the cold air penetrated into his lungs, which extinguished the flame of anger burning in his heart a little bit, "It can't go on like this...it can't!" He thought with the only rationality he had, "We have to think about it." The method..." But soon, the pain from the shoulders, chest and other parts made the anger even hotter, and the giant bear roared furiously, bent down, stepped on the ground with its two front paws, and moved forward The speed really increased a little.

An imperceptible trace of anxiety flashed across the face of the dark elf priestess.She didn't expect these two opponents to be so stubborn.The magic of creating a space filled with viscous jelly is actually a kind of psychic suggestion, not the ability to gelatinize the air, otherwise everyone, including herself, would die of suffocation.Too much of her power was spent on maintaining the blood curse ceremony of the Dark Eight Demon Formation. The object of the curse—Leviston was under the protection of some extremely powerful protective magic, and the effect of the blood curse power had been weakened. limit……

"You must kill that person, even if it means sacrificing your own life!" The priestess gritted her teeth, and the dark sacrificial song suddenly rose to a new level.The few dark elves who were dancing their limbs frantically fell down almost at the same time as the singing suddenly started. After a little struggle, they all lost the breath of life.The body of the priestess trembled violently. She tried her best to endure the terrifying power flowing through her body like burning ice water, and then injected it into the purple-black flame in front of her.

The invisible blood curse power bombarded heavily on the alchemy hexagram guardian array thousands of meters away, and the rays of light that formed the golden light network burst and fell down like a rain of meteor light.Mr. Dish and Master Merister who were talking suddenly stood up at the same time, with uncontrollable expressions of surprise on their faces.

"This blood curse power is very powerful. The Alchemy Hexagram Guardian Array can block magical attacks below the legendary level, but it begins to collapse in front of the blood curse power... Doesn't this mean that there is a legendary powerhouse nearby who is presiding over the blood curse Cursing ceremony?" The fire wizard Juno Ameriste's two flaming eyebrows were almost connected together, and the wand in his hand was raised several times, as if he wanted to cast protective magic, but he let it down helplessly .

"The power of flame is good at attacking but not good at defending. Even if I have crossed the legendary threshold, I can't cast a stronger protective magic than the Alchemy Hexagram Guardian Array." Seeing Sir Rodriguez's questioning gaze, the fire demon The director explained with a wry smile.

Mr. Dish had already come to the side of the alchemy magic circle when the power of the blood curse suddenly increased. He raised the wooden cane in his hand and drew a faint silver light in the air.After these silver lights appeared, the crumbling golden light net stabilized again. Although the violent bombardment of the blood curse power continued, whenever a light net couldn't bear it and burst open, the silver light gathered quickly. In the past, new defenses were formed in the blink of an eye.

"It's not a legendary powerhouse. Although it is very similar and powerful enough, but the manipulation is very rough. It is obvious that the person who performs the ritual lacks the original understanding, but only by sacrificing life, he has concentrated a large number of superficial blood curses. It's just strength." Mr. Dish commented, and the solemn look on his face eased a lot at the same time, "Master Levi, how do you feel now?"

After the blood curse was strengthened, the young regent sat on the high-back chair, his face pale, and his forehead was covered with sweat.Hearing Mr. Dish's concerned question, he barely raised his eyes, shook his head slightly and said, "I'm dizzy, my thinking seems to be disturbed by some force, and I can't concentrate...but overall it's okay, I can hold on. "

Mr. Dish nodded in satisfaction, "That's good, Master Levi, the power strengthened by sacrifices won't last long, as long as we survive for a while." It sounds like the old magician is full of confidence, but when he When he turned around, Sir Rodriguez couldn't help but feel a jump in his heart.

The expression on this face... seems to be pretending to be calm.

The Scourge Knight's conjecture was correct. Mr. Dish took two steps out casually, and then he didn't look back, but the voice of telepathic communication directly sounded in Sir Rodriguez's heart.

"Rodriguez, the situation is not good." Mr. Dish said bluntly, "The Alchemy Hexagram Protection Array is unable to completely shield the power of the blood curse, and Master Levi's spirit is being eroded. If this situation continues , I fear it will happen..."

"Old Dish!" Sir Rodriguez almost cried out, he hurried forward a few steps and came to the side of the old magician, "Didn't you just say that the power strengthened by sacrifices cannot last long? How could such a thing happen? Apart from the Alchemy Hexagram Protection Formation, don’t you have any other means of protection?”

"The problem is that we don't know how many blood sacrifices those dark elves have prepared. As for other protective magic, I have used all the available magic on Master Li Wei, and the effect can only be said to be slightly better than nothing." Dish The gentleman's expression seemed calm, but there was deep worry in his eyes, "Maybe we can't wait any longer, Rodriguez, you immediately lead the Griffin Knights to investigate the city, even if it disturbs us 'Allies', I can't take care of them now."

Sir Rodriguez nodded vigorously, "That's it, I'll go to gather the troops right away, and the safety of Master Levi is entrusted to you." Then he closed the visor hard, and made a heavy impact, "If If the situation continues to deteriorate, let Rist Robinson take action to solve it..."

The condemned knight in black armor had just walked to the door of the tent, before reaching out to lift the animal skin curtain, an extremely ear-piercing howl suddenly came from behind. The hexagram protective array lost the suppression of the blood curse power, the golden light suddenly rebounded, and the aftermath of the surging energy swept across the entire tent like a gust of wind. The flame flickered and swayed, and was almost torn off from the head of the torch, and everyone's robes and cloaks were also destroyed. Parchments, quills, and other lighter objects flew here and there like banners, and some even fell on Sir Rodriguez's back.

Mr. Dish raised his hands high in the turbulent energy turbulence, sparking a silver-white light, followed by a bright red fire light from Master Merister, and the melodious lute sounded continuously. This is Rist Robinson also joins the effort to suppress the energy turbulence.The combination of the three different original forces finally managed to eliminate the aftermath of the energy overflowing from the alchemy hexagram protective formation, without causing any greater damage than the many cracks in the tent.

"What happened?" Sir Rodriguez turned around quickly, holding the hilt of the star iron giant sword tightly with his right hand, his eyes were soaked in the dark green light belonging to the undead flame, "How is Master Levi? "

"Thanks to the blessings of the benevolent Father God and the brave Barud, I'm fine." Li Wei's voice sounded from a cloud of dust, with a hint of fatigue and hoarseness, "The feeling just now is really strange, my body It's like being separated from the spirit, although I can think and observe the surroundings, but I can't move my body."

Mr. Dish waved his hands, and several small magics for detecting the state were cast on the young regent one after another, and then the old magician let out a sigh of relief. "It's just a sequelae of a little mental shock. It's nothing serious. You'll be fine after a night's rest."

"So, the attack of the blood curse was resolved just like that?" Sir Rodriguez asked in confusion, "Old Dish, you owe me an explanation."

"It's not too late to explain it later, Sir Rodriguez, the sudden interruption of the invasion of the blood curse power may mean that there is a problem with the sacrifice ceremony of those dark elves. In order to take the opportunity to eradicate this trouble, please order the troops to search for ruins, and put Alanskate and his Blood Dagger into action."

Before Mr. Dish could finish his words, the curtain of the tent moved slightly, and the elite shadow assassin Arlan Skett walked in like a disembodied ghost following the shadows pouring in from outside. "Your Excellency Leviston, my lords." He bowed deeply to the young regent, and then showed a somewhat surprised expression on his face, "Someone saw a warning signal belonging to the elves outside a ruin, and it seems that they are assigned to important people. Now the Marquis Osiris the Green Lion has rushed to check...Sir Rodriguez, why do you have such an expression?"

The Scourge Knight impatiently grabbed the Shadow Assassin's arm, pulled him and strode out of the tent, "Master Arlans, we agreed as we walked, lead the way immediately, I want to go to the ruins immediately!"

　Shen Du Xing wishes all book friends in Heart of the Castle a happy holiday and wishes come true.
