439. Chapter 439 Tomb of Eternal Night
Outside the magic tower, Soderol was marching towards the White Palace with ten soldiers who were still strong and Akasha.
After experiencing various escapes and battles throughout the day, to be honest, even the most powerful Soderol's legs were a little weak. Fortunately, everyone had eaten something when they were guarding the outer city wall, otherwise they would have definitely lost their strength at this time.
The consequences of paralysis.
"Bah..."
Because of the physical damage caused by the ice pick, many internal organs of the snow monster were splashed on the ground when it died, so the soldiers' leather boots always made an unpleasant sound.
Anyone else would have been frightened by the hellish scene in front of them, but Soderol and others had long been accustomed to it, and even their expressions did not change.
"Let's try to hurry up, Roddy's situation is very bad..."
Akasha witnessed the scene where Rody was injured in the magic circle. At this time, she was very anxious, so the team that had just entered the magic tower not long ago separated a team and rushed here without even having time to rest. However, compared to her heart,
The messy priest,sodelor
Obviously more cautious - even if there was no living thing around, he still let the soldiers wear the few remaining armors, each carrying several secondary weapons, and he walked ahead carrying a dragon bone shield, vigilant
Enemies that may appear.
The team quickly left the protection area of the magic tower and entered the white palace area after passing through the long arcade that separated the two areas.
There were still large pieces of corpses and ice pick fragments in front of him, and the surroundings were unusually quiet. However, after taking a few steps, Soderol suddenly stopped and raised his hand to make a tactical "alert" gesture.
"how?"
Akasha stopped and looked forward in confusion.
There was nothing unusual about the piles of corpses around, and she could only hear the sound of the cold wind whistling in her ears. Akasha waited for a long time, but found that Soderol frowned and sniffed, closed his eyes and felt something. After a while, he lifted his "alert"
Order.
"I always feel something is wrong. Maybe I'm overthinking..."
Soderall shook his head solemnly, and then made a "keep going" gesture.

"Cough cough cough..."
Nata woke up from a coma and opened her eyes. She resisted the severe pain and tried to get up. Then she was persuaded by the soldiers who were looking after her to go back - "Pastor Akasha asked you not to move. She has already contacted Soder."
Captain Luo Er went to rescue Lord Rody."
There were those familiar soldiers in her field of vision. After hearing their words, Nata felt much more at ease, and then she nodded without saying a word and lay back.
The remaining soldiers in the team were resting on the first floor of the magic tower. Several big barbarians who had narrowly escaped were curiously pointing to the corpses in the laboratory on the first floor and discussing something. Two soldiers were standing guard at the gate... The atmosphere was relaxed and calm, everything was
The danger seems to have dissipated.
Nata breathed a sigh of relief, and then discovered that the round hole like a patio was not far away. Because she and Akasha had already observed the situation below, she was not very interested in the ice crystal veins at this time, and she slowly exhaled.
After being angry, I closed my eyes and prepared to rest...
But at this moment, a slight vibration made her eyes widen.
Nata turned her head sharply and once again stared at the underground area where the ice crystal veins were located. As a wood elf, she had sensitive senses that were unmatched by humans. However, when she discovered something was wrong, the soldiers and barbarians on guard all around were all
Without any notice.
"Buzz..."
Like countless bees flapping their wings in her ears, Nata felt that the buzzing sound seemed to be getting louder and louder. She instinctively stretched out her hand to pull the long bow to her side, becoming more and more certain that the sound was coming from the ice crystal veins.
transmitted.
"What's going on?"
******
In the white palace, Rody had the same doubts as Nata.
The skill description of "Demon Sight" is a bit vague. Roddy never understood the concept of "opening the witcher's unique vision" - he had used this skill several times, but other than blurry vision and dizziness.
Nothing gained.
However, at this moment, the "Demon Hunting Vision" made him seem to see a new world.
Rody's vision was filled with colorful threads. They were as light as spider threads floating in the air, swaying gently with a certain rhythm...
He involuntarily stretched out his palm and found that these thick threads immediately spread out like extremely repelling magnets. Upon careful observation, Rody gradually distinguished the various colors among them - and after his eyes shifted,
But he suddenly froze and stared closely at the largest relief in the middle of the wall.
Under the "Monster Hunting Vision", the "map" that originally depicted the magic circle completely changed: countless flowing elements were like light strips, and countless lines were painted on the originally "blank" space of the relief.
Texture!
Roddy immediately realized that...the sudden extra lines and lines were definitely not the product of coincidence.
Melinsela on the side was a little puzzled by Rody's exclamation, but when Rody described everything that appeared on the relief, her expression immediately changed.
"Can you see these elements clearly?"
This is the first question, because she confirmed that Rody was not a mage when she was in the Quiet Forest. It is absolutely impossible for a guy who is insensitive to elements to suddenly have a magician-level ability in half a year. This is definitely not normal.
But what puzzled her even more was the second question: "You said the area of this magic circle is five times larger than what was originally shown?"
"Yes, if the proportions are correct, its edge even extends beyond the Deathrattle Canyon... Um? It turns out that this is also the case?"
When Roddy took his "map bar" for comparison, he discovered that the ruins he had led the team to explore to receive mission rewards were also part of the magic circle!
He originally thought that the Elson City constructed by Khadgar could be regarded as a "big deal", but at this moment he realized how short-sighted his vision was - the area of this huge magic circle may have reached the "Glacier Plain"
"One third of this map!
What does this guy Solomon want to do? How many resources and time does he spend on doing this?!
The shock in his mind made Roddy a little suffocated, but when he realized that the "Demon Hunting Vision" only lasted for sixty seconds, he immediately looked carefully at the area with the densest and most conspicuous elements on this relief - the copy.
The center of the magic tower.
When looking closely, the threads surrounding the core of the magic tower actually formed a long line of faintly visible writing:
“kal-das-mujin-verdisa,vasi…”
Rody tried to spell out these words composed of high elves in confusion, wondering why this thing couldn't make sense, but he didn't expect Melinsela to hear his words, and suddenly his face changed drastically and he shouted: "Stop! Stop!
Down!"
Roddy immediately shut up and glanced around with alert eyes. After confirming that there was no abnormality, he realized that he was a little rash and apologized in a low voice: "Sorry, I don't know much about spells... What kind of spell is this?"
The Shadow Dragon didn't say anything for a few seconds, because the shock in her heart was no less than Roddy's: "This... this shouldn't appear here - this is Yongye... this is only for the Dragon Clan.
The… thing!”
She did not tell the whole story, because it involves many "secrets" within the Dragon Clan: every race has some scum or heinous people who are resented by both humans and gods, and the Dragon Clan is no exception. And because of its powerful ability, ordinary methods cannot kill the "half".
Because he is an adult dragon with the level of "god", the dragon clan has specially built a Jedi called "Tomb of Eternal Night" to execute the same kind.
There, the extremely sinful dragon clan will have its body and soul destroyed at the same time by the power of the magic circle. No matter how many souls this guy has split, or how many "life boxes" similar to the lich he has... it will be useless.
And the reason Melinsela knows this so well is because several of her most powerful uncles...were all executed in this way.
She once wanted to save these uncles, and also studied the construction principles and activation methods of the "Land of Eternal Night" magic circle. However, due to her limited ability, she could only watch those uncles who were once all-powerful die...
But the Shadow Dragon would never have imagined that he could actually see the same magic circle in a ruins.
"If I guess correctly, Solomon did this to deal with Bolantulu." After hearing her describe the effectiveness of the magic circle, Rody immediately thought of many things, "Then I should activate the magic circle now to kill it.
Seems like a good choice?”
"No...it's not that simple." Although Melinsela did not see the complete formation diagram, she could make a judgment based on the clues she had noticed before, "This is a nested multi-format formation, and its biggest limitation is that each
The point of action of a magic circle cannot overlap - that is to say, the point of action of the magic circle that can kill it is definitely not here."
Rody looked a little ugly: What does Solomon mean? Do you still have to dig out the sealed Bolantulu from the grave, then drag it to the casting position and activate the spell?
No matter how you think about it, it's all a lie.
Both of them realized that this city and the Solomon behind it were not simple, so they simply stood in front of the relief and chatted about the information about "Solomon" - not to mention that they didn't know it. When the dragon classics and the high elf historical records overlapped and were confirmed,
Roddy finally understood why Solomon died in this inhospitable place...
To put it simply, it is because in an era when "arcana" was dominant, he proposed that "elements" were the "truth" that high elf mages should pursue, and he actually proved this with experimental results - and the result is
He was expelled to this place of ice and snow by those high-ranking arcanists.
"After all, he is a genius, but he was suppressed and became like this... He is just like Copernicus." Rody shook his head, feeling that if this world did not rely on strength to speak, then Solomon's fate would definitely be the same as that one."
Just like the unlucky astronomers who said heliocentrism.
"Who is Copernicus?"
"Well, a mage who was killed for telling the truth."
Having said this, the two of them heard a scream coming from the door of the palace. Rody turned around and saw Akasha running over like a fly, and then she threw herself into his arms...
"Rowdy!"
Feeling the faint fragrance between his breaths, Roddy tightened his arms and whispered to comfort the little priest who shed a lot of tears. The way the two hugged each other tightly was seen by Melinsela next to him.
——She narrowed her eyes slightly, and then moved away as if nothing had happened.
Soderol's team arrived shortly afterwards. It was said that a group of people were all familiar with Melinsela, but meeting them again like this... the atmosphere was a little strange. After all, the aura of the "Dragon Tribe" was too powerful in the eyes of mortals, and Daviana was
A few country bumpkins were basically just watching the gods. And when Roddy introduced everyone and greeted Melinsela in a calm tone, even Soderol secretly sweated...
When did these two get so close?
As a woman, Akasha was naturally aware of this, but she greeted Melinsela with a respectful salute, took a step back and stood behind Roddy. Although she said nothing more, she kept holding her hand tightly.
With Roddy…
Melinsela lowered her eyes, turned around and walked straight towards the door: "Rody, I will take you outside the city."
This was something that was agreed upon in advance. Roddy did not refuse and nodded to follow - Soderol and others followed the escort on both sides knowingly. However, the journey that seemed to be about to end ended because of a slight sound.
