Ark, a chat group for gamers

The distance gradually shortened, and after passing through a few corners, the guardian found that the two were on a straight street at the moment.

It was perfect timing, and he jumped at it.

After spinning the short ax in his hand, he threw it forward forcefully.

With swiftness and precision, it was like a flash of thunder rushing through the buildings. The ax blade broke through all obstacles and landed behind the figure.

The opponent fell down in response and rolled several times on the ground.

After the Taoist priest succeeded, he immediately jumped up, stepped on the opponent's back from mid-air, and trampled him into mud.

"You troublesome De... Vaifan?!"

For a moment, the defender was a little stunned. He looked at the corpse at his feet, but found that the other person was not the person he was looking for.

It was just a Vajvan with a slightly similar back. The poor level of electrification of the streets in Xiaoqiu County made the night so dense that even the guards lost their eyes.

"Damn!"

He pulled out his hatchet and kicked away the corpse under his feet: "I will find you, you can't escape all this!"

Chapter 2 Seventy

Raphshini didn't know how far or how long she ran.

Drake's physique was strong, and his extraordinary physical ability was enough to allow them to fight on the harsh battlefield for a long time, but even so, Raphshine felt a tearing fatigue.

It was a feeling of overdraft, as if taking a breath could make the chest explode. It was also a feeling that Ravshini had never felt since she became an adult.

It was as if I had actually been running for several days, compressing the fatigue accumulated over a long period of time into a few hours and then bursting out in one breath.

And this sense of exhaustion finally made Raphshini stop.

Fortunately, the pursuers behind her also disappeared. Although she didn't know whether the pursuers had lost track of her or had other motives, Lafxini now had a chance to breathe.

She raised her head and looked around, only to realize that she had come to an extremely old city.

The surrounding houses smelled of decay. The wooden house structures were covered with moss and insect holes. The pavement on the street was seriously cracked. It looked like it had not been repaired for a long time. Grass and vines could even be seen in the gaps. growing in it.

Looking further into the distance, Ravshine saw those street lamps emitting a dim yellow color. They were not light bulbs, but old-fashioned kerosene lamps that burned with oil and gas.

And if the central urban area of ​​Xiaoqiu County itself is poorly electrified, then this urban area has not undergone any modernization at all.

However, this scene also let Ravshini know her location. There is no doubt that this is the buffer city zone belonging to Xiaoqiu County. Due to the development within the city, a large number of old buildings have been moved here. It has been through many years, and some even date back to the time when Tara had not yet built the mobile city.

It can be said that this is the real hometown of the Tara people.

But it is precisely because of this that after the establishment of Xiaoqiu County, these old buildings were abandoned. They did not receive more repairs and transformations, and were abandoned continuously until they are now in the buffer city zone.

If Ravshini remembers correctly, these buffer urban areas will be decentralized and directly become fixed urban settlements, completely out of the scope of mobile cities.

The Tara people called it - the Victorians were stripping the Tara people of even the last ray of light from the present, leaving them with only the backward and damaged past.

But no matter what, Ravshini also felt that she could stay here briefly to rest.

The aura of the defender has indeed disappeared, and the woman who gave him an infinite sense of oppression no longer appears, which means that the other party is indeed still some distance away from him.

Ravshini breathed a sigh of relief, she still remained vigilant to the outside world, and began to examine her own situation.

The first is the weapon that has been with her for a long time. Although the two sides did not actually fight many times in the encounter just now, when Ravshini raised the spear in front of her eyes, she could clearly see the spear in front of her. On the body of the gun, there was an extremely deep ax mark that almost cut it into two pieces.

The power of the guardian is far beyond Rafshini's imagination. If it weren't for the series of coincidences before, Rafshini even doubted whether she could escape from the other party's hands.

And this long spear can no longer be used, and it is barely broken at this moment, so it is completely impossible to use it to fight again.

Then, there was the black egg that he snatched from the opponent's hand.

Ravshini raised her left hand and looked at Black Egg with the help of the hazy moonlight.

The situation was urgent before, and Ravshini never had the chance to take a closer look. But now after observing it herself, she immediately felt an instinctive feeling of exclusion.

It's like someone who is afraid of arthropods and suddenly finds a tarantula lying in the palm of his hand.

That kind of feeling is enough to make people shake their palms vigorously, and even fall into a state of extremes for a period of time.

The same is true for Rafshine, the weird half-human shape made her feel frightened, but she still restrained the emotion of throwing it away.

Because she doesn't know, if the egg is broken now, what kind of disaster will be brought by the existence crawling out of it.

Logically speaking, egg-laying animals should be the most vulnerable before they hatch, but Raphshine, who is holding the black egg, can feel the intuition of crisis that came from Draco that day.

——If the egg in my hand hits the ground, it will directly wake up the existence inside.

Moreover, by observing the black egg, Lavshini also saw clearly the condition of her arm.

On her arm, she could see her own black blood vessels, and her skin was also full of cracks, which looked extremely leaky at first glance.

This shocked Ravshini. At first she thought she was poisoned, but soon she discovered the reason.

Or that black egg, which is sucking out its own... life force?Raphshini didn't know what adjectives to use to describe this extremely subjective feeling, and it seemed that only this more ethereal concept was more appropriate.

And if this is the case, the strange physical consumption before him may also be explained.

Lafxini shook her head helplessly. She hadn't figured out how to deal with the situation yet, so she could only hold the black egg and lean against a brick wall to relax her body.

But when she leaned against the wall, she felt something was wrong. It wasn't that danger was lurking around her, but it was a simple feeling of emptiness that didn't rely on anything real.

The brick wall behind him seemed to be a layer of light foam, and then fell apart as soon as he leaned on it, and Rafshine, who lost his balance for a while, couldn't adjust his posture in time, so he could only lie down directly on the ground.

crunch--

The sound of the wooden door shaft turning rang in her ears, and Ravshine only felt a flash in front of her eyes, and then everything around her changed.

The gloomy alleys are gone, and the brick walls covered with damp moss are gone, replaced by brightly lit entrances, and old but warm corridors.

Rafshine saw two girls standing not far away, their faces were full of embarrassment and surprise, one of the girls was holding a key and a bolt in his hand, as if he was going to come and lock the door .

"Ye Yan, what am I talking about? Remember to lock the doors and windows at night, otherwise someone will come in accidentally."

"Boss, it's already disguised like that outside. If anyone can come in, they must be coming for us."

Listening to Yeyan's justification, Aurora looked towards the entrance with some headaches. Tonight, Yeyan arrived home a little later than her, so she came to lock the door, but that guy still had the same old problem, thinking that the camouflage on the outside was very good. effect, so there is no need to lock the door.

Even judging from the results, she actually didn't even close the door, she just kept it ajar and ignored it.

Then, tonight, someone actually came to the door by mistake and fell into the house because of the unlocked door.

"Then what...I'm sorry, you didn't fall into trouble, did you?"

Aurora took a few steps forward, wanting to see if the unlucky man was injured from the fall, but when she took a few steps closer, she found that the face of the man in front of her was very familiar.

"Wait a minute, you are... the leader of that deep pool!"

……

The group leader who has lost his temper: I’m going to take a break and leave the rest to you.

Cube Liver Emperor Lin: Huh?

Cube Liver Emperor Lin: Just wait for a moment. What do you mean you need to take a break?

Cube Liver Emperor Lin: Hello?Where are people?Please tell me what you did!

Chapter 271 Don't panic, because panic is useless

"Okay, I thought there would be a big problem in Xiaoqiu County, and then I would turn into a savior or something and descend from the sky to directly reverse the situation or something - but who has never had this kind of fantasy! Why did my dream come true now? ah?"

"Boss, why do you always feel like you wish this wouldn't happen when you say this?"

"Nonsense, anyone can think about it, but not everyone can do it. Anyway, I don't think I can do it."

Aurora unscrewed the lid of the medicine bottle in her hand, poured a few pills out of it, stuffed them directly into her mouth, and crushed these pills with a heart-rending momentum as if chewing the flesh and blood of an enemy : "My dear mother, this can shorten my life."

At this moment, Ravshine is sitting on the sofa in the living room of this warm hut, the strange black egg is still tightly held in her hand, and she is also observing everything around her.

The first time she saw Aurora, Lafxini had already remembered her identity. She was the young leader of the Witch Forest. It was also during this period that the defender signaled that Shenchi should make friends with her. figure.

In fact, no one in Shenchi knows what value this young man has to fight for, let alone the witch Lin behind him.

The Grand Duke raised troops quite a few times, but for those who followed the movements of the Dukes, each of their actions was classified and analyzed with various intelligence.

Therefore, the organization Miko Lin has appeared on the desks of various intelligence agencies very early, and has done a lot of analysis.

At present, the existence form of the Witch Forest is somewhat close to the King's Staff that is currently active in Victoria, but that was also a long time ago.

After the Grand Duke carried out a thorough crusade against the Witch Forest, the current Witch Forest can only be said to be two or three kittens.

At least, from the perspective of the military advisers in Shenchi, the Witch Forest is now dead in name only. Even if there is a new leader who is leading them to rebuild the Witch Forest, it is only a situation close to lingering.

In other words, the witch forest is not worth much anymore, but the guardians pay more attention to it, and when asked the reasons, they always talk about it in a non-human way, and they don't give convincing reasons at all.

But looking at it now, Lavshine can vaguely guess a little bit of the defender's thoughts.

Knowledge, the knowledge preserved by the Witch Forest, or the knowledge that only exists in the head of the leader of the Witch Forest in front of him, is what the defenders pursue.

Looking around, the eyes are filled with thick books and dim yellow scrolls. The bookshelves supported by a wall cannot hold so many books, so that there are stacks of books piled up to the ceiling in the living room.

At the same time, such an environment also made Ye Yan feel particularly nervous about Ravxini's arrival. At this moment, she was holding a bucket of water not far from Ravxini, ready to pour the water on Ravxini at any time. on the tail.

In addition, there are a large number of strange-looking props, such as bones, feathers, crystal balls, dream catchers...these props are so diverse and complex that it is difficult to distinguish their functions one by one, but they can Match the identity of the owner of this house.

People will always have some stereotypes about specific groups, and now this just fits all people's imagination of witches.

And if what a moralist wants is a piece of this vast knowledge, then the young witch in front of him may be able to understand what the black egg in her hand is.

"What is that?" After a long silence, Raphshini finally spoke.

"Huh?" Aurora was stunned for a moment, then she lowered her head and looked at the bottle in her hand: "It's just...the kind of stomach medicine that costs tens of dollars a bottle."

"..."

Seeing the atmosphere, Aurora suddenly fell silent, and then realized what the other party wanted to express: "Oh, you are talking about the thing in your hand.

"The monster spawn egg, this is the name recorded in the handbook. It is an extremely rare existence. Theoretically, it should not even appear in this world."

After talking about the business, Aurora's expression became serious: "In the past, there were great sages who tried to study this thing, and used witchcraft to reconstruct a controllable monster-spawning egg. The origin, but currently even the great sages cannot reproduce these spawn eggs."

Before Ravxini could figure out the meaning, she saw Ye Yan suddenly taking out a U-shaped pillow and looking like he was about to fall asleep in the living room.

Then, Raphshine knew the reason why the other party did this.

Because Aurora is definitely not a person who can explain knowledge interestingly. On the contrary, she is like one of those old and obscure books. Although the content is very detailed and thorough, for beginners, it is just a rush. Let the other person fall asleep.

Aurora used a lot of examples to illustrate the operation principle and mechanism of the spawn egg, and applied the written copy in the wizard's handbook, which led to the content Aurora said surpassed that of Tai Pull the scope of understanding of local people.

Because of spells or something, this is not the system developed by Terra.

"In short, this is not an immature egg. In fact, it is closer to compressing a mature life directly into an egg. As long as the constraints are lifted, the compressed life will be directly compressed into an egg. Return to normal.”

In the end, Aurora's words affirmed Raphshine's intuition, but it doesn't mean that all the problems are solved: "It's just... the great sage once said that the content of the spawn egg can depend on the appearance To make a simple screening, although the relevant illustrations have not been handed down, some basic descriptions are still recorded in the textbooks of the Summoning School.

"The problem is, I've looked through the relevant entries, but I haven't found the source of the spawn egg in your hand."

Aurora rubbed her lower abdomen, showing embarrassment: "If you analyze it from the clues, some of its characteristics are very similar to the source of the spell of the Forbidden School - the wither skeleton, but that is only partially the same. .

"Another problem lies here. Even the wither skeleton is enough to cause a headache, not to mention the appearance of this thing, which is much more difficult to deal with than the wither skeleton."

The young witch traced a pattern in the air with her fingers: "In witchcraft, the Necromancer faction once witnessed the birth of the Wither Skeleton. It is said that it was a catastrophe that destroyed a kingdom, and a creature named Wither. The terrifying existence came into this world, the fortress collapsed, the wizards were defeated, and even the sages at that time were at a loss. No one could stop the pace of the wither, and wherever it passed, those who died because of it Transformed into a wither skeleton.

"In the end, it was a mysterious great sage who resealed the wither."

"Although these are only records that exist in ancient scrolls, sages of later generations have also guessed that when there are enough wither skeletons, the wither will return to the world."

She grinned and looked at the spawner egg in Raphshine's hand, her tone was a bit complicated: "And that's just a legend about the wither skeleton, but right now, there's no mention of this thing in the book." ——My grandpa said that the worst thing in this world is the event named after yourself, and now I think we have hit this kind of thing.”

"To sum up, it can't be hatched, and it can't be put into that monster spawner, right?" Raphshini followed up Aurora's words and asked softly.

Aurora looked at the leader of the deep pool. Just as the young witch was about to answer this question, she realized that Raphshini was not the kind of person who knew everything in her heart when she knew everything about it. asked rhetorically.

On the contrary, her confusion is particularly obvious at this moment. Her inquiry is actually to find a positive answer, that is, she needs someone to stand up to give her this direction and lead her to do the corresponding things.

Ahhh, I feel like I'm going to throw up, and the stomach acid is going to burn the esophagus... Aurora pursed her lips, but finally she nodded: "Yes, no matter what, it can't go back to that place. In the monster spawner.

"That is a vessel that can catalyze monster spawn eggs in batches. If it returns, there will be a steady stream of terrifying creations."

It is foreseeable that after losing this black egg, the defender that the leader of Shenchi said will definitely organize a strong counterattack to get back the monster spawn egg.

And no matter what, it is definitely difficult for him to get out of this matter, after all, he has been in the target of the other party from the beginning.

Unprecedented pressure came to Aurora at this moment, not only the future of Miko Lin, but also the catastrophe in front of her.
