Chapter 352 The Darkness in the Darkness
Compared with the fierce battle in the center of the city, the Istaron troops advancing from the East XC District did not encounter substantial resistance.Except for the occasional crazy patient, the streets and alleys are almost dead silent.According to Laurana's speculation before the battle, the Brotherhood probably hid its lair in a certain urban area, but the Prophet obviously foresaw the actions of the Istarenians, and he put all his main forces on the frontal battlefield, There was no defensive force left near the altar.

Wanting to find the enemy's lair in a city, but the other party did not leave any clues, which made the search work extremely difficult.Leonard once thought that he had almost found his way, but at this time he received an order to retreat and could only lead the team back.At this time, he was only three streets away from the altar.

The image of the Istarenian turning his horse's head slowly dissipated in the water basin, and the prophet finally breathed a sigh of relief.He leaned on his staff and stood up tremblingly, walked to the center of the altar with the pitch-black crystal ball in his arms, and whispered to himself: "Even if you are a little clever, you are just a mortal after all. Since you missed the last Don't blame me for my cruelty. Praise be to the Lord, Zendikar will return to the world..."

He was muttering something incomprehensible, but his face was extremely cautious. He carefully placed the black crystal ball in the center of the altar, stretched out his hand to cover the crystal ball, and a look of madness flashed in his eyes.

There was the faint sound of unhurried footsteps behind him. The Prophet frowned slightly, and said, "Master Saron, according to our agreement, you shouldn't..." He suddenly realized that there seemed to be something wrong with that footstep, and he couldn't help but Surprised, he turned his head suddenly, only to see a pair of bare feet covered in mud.

The girl held a long sword and walked slowly like a walking corpse. Her body seemed to be covered with mud, and muddy water was everywhere from her cheeks to her feet. The mud dripped down the long sword in her hand to the ground, and behind her, into a strange muddy footprint.

The prophet raised his eyebrows, and quietly clenched the staff in his hand.At this moment, he almost put all his strength into the front line, and the only one left here was the suddenly silent special envoy of the Cursed Sect.However, it was a strange girl standing in front of him now, which made him vigilant.

The prophet's gaze slowly shifted from the girl to the weapon in her hand. When he saw the mud flowing on the long sword, his heart moved, and he couldn't help asking tentatively: "His Royal Highness Pandora?"

Hearing the name spoken by the prophet, the girl stopped in her footsteps, raised her head, a dark red cold light flashed in her eyes, and a strange smile appeared on her face.She chuckled and said in a low voice: "There are not many people in this world who have heard my name, and there are not many people who have seen me make a move... I don't remember, there is such a small role as you."

"As the heir to the ancient gods of Zendikar, I have the honor to listen to Lord Barbarossa's teachings. That Lord has repeatedly told us to be respectful to His Royal Highness Pandora." The prophet bowed deeply and held his The posture is put to the most humble level.Although he guessed the identity of the person in front of him, it made him walk on eggshells even more.The legendary His Highness is not a good-tempered person.

"Barbarossa? That guy who is too lazy to even take the trouble to breathe air, would he be interested in teaching you?" The red light in the girl's eyes flickered, and she raised the corner of her mouth and said with disdain: "But it doesn't matter, I just want to know One thing, where is the girl from Sword Castle?"

The girl from Sword Castle?This adjective is too general. The first person that popped up in the prophet's mind was Diana, who had been in contact with him as the acting head of the house.It's just that he hadn't entered the city yet on the day Diana fought the puppeteer, so he didn't have a deep impression of the so-called quasi-juggernaut-level little girl.Except for this one, most of the other residents of Sword Castle have been reduced to the fertilizer of sacrifices. Of course, the prophet dared not tell the truth, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and reply: "If it is that lady you are looking for, she It should be hidden with the Istarenians now."

"Very well, then you are useless." The girl nodded coldly and said.

"Wait a minute! Lord Pandora, I am Lord Barbarossa's subordinate!" Seeing the girl's face-changing speed like flipping through a book, the Prophet was taken aback and hurriedly shouted.

"That's why you deserve to die." The girl finished with a blank expression, raised her hand and shook the prophet lightly, a bloody mouth suddenly appeared on the ground under the prophet's feet, and wrapped him tightly in her mouth bit down.

Seeing that the girl did not have the slightest tolerance, a stern look flashed in the prophet's eyes.He immediately grabbed the black crystal ball under his feet and threw it hard to the ground.There was only a glass-like crisp sound, and the crystal ball shattered.The next moment, countless wailing souls poured out like a flood, drowning everything around in an instant.

"Yes, you can be regarded as a talent, but it is meaningless for you to play these small tricks in front of me." The girl sneered, and pressed her palm in midair, and the bloody mouth that swallowed the prophet rushed out of the ground, forming A huge mud-covered monster was sucked by the mud monster. The mud monster opened its mouth and sucked it hard, and the scattered souls around it were involuntarily sucked back by him, forming a gray-white torrent and being swallowed up.

In the battlefield in the center of the city in the distance, the same huge monster also showed its most terrifying side.The huge fungus sprayed out a highly poisonous mist, instantly causing dozens of fully armed elite soldiers to fall to the ground and die.The most frightening thing is that those green poisonous fogs are far from being as simple as they seem.After only a few breaths, those soldiers who fell to the ground stood up again, clusters of green fungal organisms grew from their skin, driving them to turn around and charge towards their comrades!

This method of controlling the mind through infection is exactly the same as those patients affected by the black rain, except that those patients used to scratch their teeth to infect others. Fog, but who can remain indifferent to those who have just witnessed the tragedy with their own eyes?
The speed of the forty Night Watchmen soldiers was not fast, but the moment they turned around to attack, the second line of defense temporarily formed by the Night Watchmen was shaken again.

"Hold on, damn it! Archers, shoot them!" General Hank slammed the big sword in his hand to the ground and roared loudly, but this time his order did not achieve the desired effect.His warriors were not weak, but no one wanted to die so inexplicably.Some people were already thinking of quitting, but when they saw that their general was still standing at the front line, they hesitated again.This tangled mental state generally appeared in every soldier, causing a moment of confusion in the temporarily formed defensive front.

"General, let the brothers retreat, the power of ordinary people can't deal with these monsters!" Kenan returned to General Hank and said loudly.Behind him, the archers of the Night Watchmen finally fired their first round of bows and arrows, but the arrows could only slightly slow down the progress of the controlled soldiers, but could not stop them.Even if they are shot into hedgehogs with arrows all over their bodies, their bodies are already dead and will not be affected at all.

"Activate the remote form of the gem weapon!" Seeing that General Hank was still somewhat unwilling, Kenan stomped his feet, turned and shouted to several night watchmen officers following him.These people are all bronze rank masters who followed him to leave the team. Hearing this, he half-kneeled on the ground immediately, raised his arm and aimed at the distant target. The parts turned into arrow slots.The gem's light flickered twice in the arrow slot, turning into an arrow shadow and shooting out.

The armed power of gemstones that can raise their strength to the quasi-silver level is really extraordinary. The light arrow directly pierced through the soldier running in the front, and even the three people behind him also pierced through, and burned a wound on the wound. A wound the size of a bowl.Even if the body is manipulated, it is naturally impossible to support the action if it is damaged to such an extent, and those targets who were hit by the arrows fell to the ground one after another.The light arrows fired by the five people together wiped out most of the targets in an instant.

Seeing that his "toy" was destroyed, the giant let out a low growl, and the huge mushroom umbrella clinging to his back trembled again.

Before Kenan could be happy, he saw the corpse at the giant's feet - this was just a battlefield, and there were countless corpses left by the two sides in the fierce battle.What would it be like if that monster could manipulate corpses without limit?Thinking of this, he was already in a cold sweat.

"Why are you in a daze? Remember that our combat time cannot exceed 15 minutes!" A strong palm slapped Kenan on the shoulder, which woke him up, and when he turned around, he saw El and other warriors armed with gemstones had arrived. Arrived behind oneself.

"It's a very good idea. Using the long-range form works well, but the duration must be shortened by at least one-third." El patted his shoulder and smiled at his soldiers: "Brothers, we are short on time Nonsense, you guys deal with these minions, let me deal with that big guy."

The rising and falling gem lights almost blinded the eyes of the soldiers in the rear. When they came back to their senses, they found that the squad of officers equipped with mysterious weapons had rushed up without hesitation.

Arrows of colorful light competed to bloom in the dark night, burying the corpse awakened by the green fog again.El took the lead, bent his bow and set an arrow to standardize the giant's head, and the rune totem on his arm was shining brightly.The long arrow left his hand, and a muffled sound erupted from the bowstring.

The giant's head exploded!
