Diablo: Destruction Chapter 448: Bloody Energy Gate
…
first. Let’s go to those dwarf villages first. Let the ten dwarf elders know. Although the old man Muradin said there was no information. But this battle has been going on for more than half a year. They should have some knowledge. How many can you find out?
At my suggestion. The dwarf warrior who was responsible for leading the way was walking with his short body shaking. This male dwarf. Although it looks a bit rough. But with a body like a fat winter melon. He swayed as he walked. Like a big fat duck. After watching it for a long time, I still find it quite cute and interesting.
He also led me through a narrow canyon. Then came to a secret teleportation station. Teleport to another teleport point in the secret room. Exit the magic machine door. The form is different from when it came. What is clearly in front of us is a relatively hidden flat path. It spreads from here to the foot of the mountain.
Although it is not an open road. But it was much better than the penalty lane Tualatin took us on. If we say that the penalty road can only be passed by those with strong adventurer abilities. So this one in front of me. A twelve or thirteen-year-old mountain kid can walk back and forth.
The more you look at the road in front of you, the smoother it becomes. I became more and more aware of Tualatin's sinister intentions. I wish I could turn around and go back now. Tie the drunken old winter melon to the top of the five giant pillars in the dwarf king's city. Let him enjoy the feeling of being struck by thousands of thunders.
Look back at where we came from. It is a long and narrow canyon. A few kilometers into it is a dead end. And the magic machine door. But it was on a stone wall a few hundred meters after entering the canyon. It's seamless when closed. Even if someone discovers this trail. Follow here to find it. It is unlikely that the machine door will be discovered.
It seems that before the prison invasion. In that tens of thousands of years of racial war secretly provoked by humans. After the dwarves suffered a lot from humans. He also became more careful and smarter.
However, the road is getting better. My negative character halo has not yet been removed. Along the way, the Razer in the sky would send us electricity from time to time, if not for its high lightning resistance. I'm afraid I'm like that man now. The whole body is hairless. He went back to see Vilas and the others with his bald head. If that's the case. I will definitely be criticized by |Ghost. Maybe he'll even take advantage of me to fall asleep. I'm writing on my bald head. That little fool.
Beautiful figures flashed through my mind. My heart couldn't help but feel warmer and warmer, and my steps became more urgent. I can't wait to complete the task immediately. Go back and rub the little ghost's face that feels so good. Tease the shy Vilas. He held his little baby Sarah in his arms and protected him.
certainly. It is also true to hurry down the mountain and get out of the lightning range. With Feeney nearby. It will no longer be a dream for me to break that man's record. Ugh nightmare...
Hit the dwarf warrior in front. Seeing me almost every minute. He will use lightning to "temper his body" (this is how I explained to him). I can't help but be impressed. He said with a smile that he would be hit dozens of times every time he walked this road. Now I, the "son of lightning," is standing by. It's finally getting better.
Fortunately, it only took half a day. We went down to the middle of the mountain. Finally out of the divine punishment area. Look at what's chasing above your head. I wiped away a cold sweat and counted the roaring Razers that seemed unwilling to leave. In just half a day, he was struck 426 times. If you stay all day. I'm afraid that guy's record really can't be maintained. Breaking four digits is not impossible.
Until late afternoon. We just walked down the God's Punishment Mountain Range. It is said that it is easier to go up the mountain than it is to go down the mountain. Really good. I remember Tualatin taking me "on that rugged path." It only took a few hours.
This area does not belong to the City of God's Punishment. Nor is it within the scope of the Plains of Despair. That is to say. It has been far away from the area where adventurers usually experience. But this is nothing surprising to me. Supporting the Elf activities in Kurast. I am also outside the calendar area. That is to say, the Elf leaders stay inside longer, right?
At the foot of the mountain, there is a small dwarf village with smoke rising from the kitchen. It's probably because it's located relatively far back. So I haven't been attacked by monsters yet. So at a glance. The moonlight is bright. Evening insects chirp softly. It looked peaceful.
but. As we approached the village. There was a faint smell of blood in the air. But it took us by surprise. Rush over quickly. The dwarf warrior who led the way was worried. He looked very worried about his people. But there are no body size restrictions. I can't run fast even if I want to.
He simply gritted his teeth. A flying save. Rolling down the slope. It looks more like a big winter. Such a sturdy way to travel. It made me stunned. I can’t help but admire him very much. Not every adventurer has the courage to do this kind of behavior. It can be seen that he is anxious for his companions.
When we arrived at the village gate. Only to find out that it was a false alarm. Two dwarf warriors standing at the gate. He told us that the village was very peaceful. The two dwarf soldiers guarding the door were probably familiar with the dwarf leading the way. Watch him roll down the slope tragically. After standing up, I was spinning. The eyes appear to become two large whirlpools. And he was covered in mud. Extremely embarrassing and funny. Shan couldn't help but laugh loudly.
Look at the dwarf leading the way. He looked as depressed as his parents.
Enter the village. I finally understood the source of the bloody smell - many injured dwarves were lying on the bed. Groaning in pain. A dwarf woman was busy around them. Or bandage. Or feed. The situation was very similar to when the camp was attacked by monsters.
the soldier told us. Because there are too many monsters. Even the dwarf warriors at the job transfer level and mercenary level are too busy. Therefore, military-level dwarves have no choice but to use leather armor.
A soldier-level warrior. It is not protected by the rules. It cannot heal automatically after being injured. This originally peaceful little village. It also became the logistics area. A place for soldiers to recuperate.
Wandered around the village. Suddenly, I found a large group of dwarf warriors rushing back from a distance covered with stars and moon. Their gear was in tatters. There was already a look of fatigue on his face. But the fighting spirit is still full.
"That's the Great Elder. He just returned from a victorious battle in the small village of Bruce."
One of the dwarf warriors pointed at the grey-bearded man at the front of the team. He looked dozens of years older than Muradin. But he was a dwarf warrior who was full of energy, shouted war songs, and held a flaming hammer.
"Can you let me have a good talk with your great elder?"
I glanced at the optimistic old dwarf warrior. He is probably more tired than anyone else now. But he still worked hard to encourage other soldiers. A heartfelt admiration could not help but rise in my heart.
I, the dwarf elder, sat facing each other in a dim room illuminated by an oil lamp. He's just now taking off his disguise. The old face revealed full of fatigue.
Thinking he was starving, he drank water and gnawed on dried meat without saying a word, seizing every moment to replenish food and energy.
"Sorry for keeping you waiting. Your Excellency Wu Fan."
Finally, I was seven-tenths full after eating. The dwarf elder took a long breath. Look up. The wrinkled old face looked particularly vicissitudes of life under the dim light.
"There's no rush. I admire the great elder's heroic appearance just now."
He responded quickly. I still respect such upright old people.
A few polite words. I began to explain my purpose. When you know that I am here to collect information. The great elder showed an expression of great surprise.
"This relationship is good. In the past six months, we have been beaten so completely that we don't even know what the enemy behind us looks like. It's really frustrating."
Said. His eyes burned with anger. Unable to restrain himself, he punched the table hard and smashed the entire hardwood table into a pile of rubbish.
"Since His Majesty the Dwarf King thinks highly of me and has entrusted such an important task to me, I will definitely do my best. Great Elder, please rest assured. But if possible, I still hope that the Great Elder can explain the current battle situation so that I can be prepared."
"Neither arrogant nor impetuous. Very good."
The great elder looked at me approvingly. Then he began to briefly explain to me the battle situation in the past six months and more.
this area. There are hundreds of dwarf villages in total. Tens of thousands of dwarves. Being able to defend safely when the monster attacks for the first time is also beneficial to the fact that most of the dwarves are master blacksmiths.
They are well equipped. And the scope of competition between villages is not limited to forging equipment. There are also traps and village defenses. It is precisely because of these factors. It was just a mistake. The monster's sudden attack did not have the expected effect.
later. It is the constant attack of enemies like a tide. A few at a time. As many as tens of thousands. The attack power is mainly concentrated in the central villages. It seems to want to form a sharp knife. Go straight to the dwarf's lair - the dwarf royal city.
Fortunately, the attack range of monsters is relatively concentrated. Therefore, the dwarf warriors are at a disadvantage in numbers. Only then can we firmly block this tide.
among these monsters. Including the first evolution of the fat beast [the corpse-spitting beast]. The final evolved form [Abyss Demon]. There is also an evolution of the Doomcaster [Strangler]. An evolved form of Balog [King of the Cave]. An evolutionary form of the flesh-and-blood resurrector, Styx Yaksha]. Knight of Doom. And the most painful thing. An evolution of the Doom Knight [the Hell Knight].
There are quite a lot of varieties. I scratched my head with a slight headache. but. As long as there are no BT monsters like Big Pineapple's Guards - [Death Knights] appearing. It's nothing to me.
"According to past experience. In the early hours of this morning, there was another wave of monster attacks. Although it was a bit rushed, it was the best time for Elder Wu Fan to sneak in."
Listen to what the great elder said. -Look at the tired look on his face. I couldn't help but feel a little moved in my heart.
"It's better. Just leave these monsters to me. Everyone is tired. Let's take a good rest." I said confidently.
"Leave it to you? There are at least a few monsters. It's not that I'm looking down on you. Even if you are called the Twin Stars of the Mainland, at your current level, I'm afraid you can't do it."
The great elder looked me up and down. He said it directly without beating around the bush.
"If the great elder doesn't believe me, just follow me."
then. Riding the night. We carefully spared the tired warriors. Try not to disturb them. In fact, it is probably just the gongs and drums beating in their ears right now. It may not be enough to wake you up. That full of tired cry. In the quiet night, it was already louder than firecrackers.
Under the leadership of the lightly dressed elder. We traveled all night. We walked for several hours under the stars and the moon. He stopped suddenly. Pointing to the other side, ten kilometers away.
"Look. There is a gathering of monsters over there. I don't know where the monsters come from. They are constantly gathering in several gatherings. They have to attack three or two times every day before stopping. Fortunately, ten of us, Mr. Zhang, led a large number of Only the elite soldiers can resist it."
He pointed to the left and right.
"Not far away on the left is Bru Village. It is the village I am responsible for defending. Dozens of kilometers away on the right is Ace Village. The Sixth Elder is responsible for defending."
Under the guidance of the great elder. I set my sights on the dark depths of dozens of kilometers far ahead. Take a closer look. Sure enough, there was a cold light that was dozens of times smaller than the stars. Those are the monster's eyes. These cold lights connected bit by bit. And it seems to keep increasing. I'm afraid it's exactly what the great elder said. There are no more than ten thousand.
"It's no problem, just leave it to me. Everyone can have a peaceful sleep."
After looking carefully. I looked back. He smiled confidently at the great elder. Then slowly walked towards where the monsters were gathered.
The Great Elder was naturally curious about where my confidence came from. He followed me regardless of physical and mental fatigue. Let's see what I want to do.
Of course, it was still about ten kilometers away from where the monsters gathered. I stop. The great elder behind him saw the most surprising scene in his life.
Just now a good person roared angrily. The body glows red. Violent expansion. In the blink of an eye, it became more than ten meters tall. The fierce and destructive aura emanating from the tall blood-red bear. The monsters gathered ten kilometers away also rioted restlessly. Making a squealing sound of fear.
Then. The blood-red giant bear opened its huge mouth. An energy that made the Great Elder's hair tingle. The bloody lightning ball condensed in that huge mouth. About ten seconds later, he vomited towards the monsters gathered in front of him with a whooshing sound.
"Rumble--"
An unprecedented explosion rose in the center. Even standing ten kilometers away, he had to bend down slightly. Against the violent explosive airflow blowing from the front.
The mountain-like body of the blood-red giant bear. He was not affected by this airflow at all. Instead, blood-colored energy balls continued to gather. Spit out a few more shots. They didn't stop until the entire gathering was blown into a small piece.
"How is it? Your Excellency, Great Elder. I didn't lie."
After the explosion subsided. I-have canceled my body. He turned around and said to the stunned elder with a smile on his face.
do not know why. I've always had a problem with turning into blood in front of class. And to the dwarves. On the contrary, there is no such care.
"As expected, they are indeed the mainland's twin stars. It's not something an old man like me can imagine. I, Lao Lu, have seen it all."
The great elder murmured to himself. He has never underestimated the world's talents. When the name of Mainland Gemini spread. Full attention was also given to it. But whatever he thinks. Didn't expect that either.
It was a terrifying power far beyond his imagination. His original self-righteousness. It's just a frog in a well.
"I don't know about the other sub-star. How charming is he?" The great elder looked at me with a burning gaze. He must have realized our marriage status. There will definitely be some understanding between each other.
"Although she and I are indeed engaged. But I'm sorry. I don't know what kind of person she is. I haven't even met her once. However, I think she must be better than me. "
Let me explain it this way. The great elder was slightly startled. Then I remembered that we were a political marriage. It’s not surprising that they don’t know each other. Can't help but smile.
"Elder Fan is too humble. She must be as famous as you. I don't think she can be better than you. Otherwise, we ordinary people would not be allowed to live."
The Dark Continent respects the strong. Even dwarves with upright personalities are not exempt from vulgarity. After seeing my strength. His tone was subconsciously respectful.
I smiled noncommittally. This is no joke. Under the two major cheating weapons, the Redeemer and the BLG Amulet. Only then can I achieve the power and reputation I have today. Fang, on the other hand, is a regular dark man. There are no cheats. But he can keep pace with me. What else can you do if you're not better than me?
"What a pity. We, the dwarves, have not been able to have geniuses like you. Only one Tualatin... ugh..."
Thinking that the dwarves were not favored by God. Such a unique genius appears. The great elder couldn't help but sometimes envy humans and elves. I felt extremely sad. At the same time, he secretly made up his mind. This time allied with humans. Agree to whatever you say. Such a character. Even if he is not from the dwarf clan. It would be nice to be an ally.
I don't know. This whim actually made the dwarf chief elder secretly make a decision in his heart. But are you thinking that Tualatin is also a genius?
But think about it. Just the fact that he can forge a magical weapon shows that he has great qualifications. At least he's great at these weird things.
"Kill these monsters this time. After all, we are only treating the symptoms, not the root cause. It won't take two days. They can regroup. I think I'd better set out now to gather information."
"Thank you, Elder Wu Fan. I would like to thank you on behalf of the entire dwarf clan."
The great elder said with tears of gratitude. I thought to myself who said humans are all cunning and cunning. There is a good and selfless comrade in front of me!
If you let him know. I just want to complete the mission early so that I can go back and reunite with Vilas and the others. I wonder what I will think?
After bidding farewell to the great elder. I walked a bit. There was no one looking around. Then he took out the golden antlers and took them with him. Transform into a deer spirit fruit. It's better to use four legs when traveling.
Come to the gathering point first. Those blood bear energy cannons just now. The place has almost been bombarded into several connected small lakes, and tens of thousands of monsters have gathered here. I'm afraid most of the dead ones are gone. I quickly walked around the neighborhood. Put away the dropped items that catch your eye.
well. Why doesn't God make an automatic pickup rule? Looking at the gold coins scattered around, I narrowed my eyes with some distress. Quite a glance. Don't pick up any gold coins. This is detrimental to my reputation as the third stingy Rogge!
Just when I was leaving. The sporadic cold light not far ahead attracted my attention.
The dwarf elder did not lie. The number of monsters refreshes really fast. I just killed the monsters at this gathering point, and new monsters arrived one after another.
With one kick of my legs, I circled these monsters. Counting the number of these cold lights from a distance, it was estimated that there were hundreds. Look at the direction it's coming from. Smile slightly.
I am worried about which line of defense to go to for investigation.
Follow the direction the monster came from. I dodged left and right. And released crows to conduct surveillance in the sky. Therefore, although he has not received any investigative training. But in the end, I didn’t do anything stupid like rushing into a dense circle of enemies.
As the number of monsters becomes more dense. Encounter the inevitable encounter. I can run whenever I can. Anyway, now I control the deer form. There has also been some success. You won't be helpless if a Cliff Stalker jumps on your back.
and. Most of these monsters are melee combat. Can't keep up with my speed. The only long-range Destruction Knight. After I transformed into a deer spirit. Magic resistance increases faintly. It is not afraid of its elemental attacks.
As for being surrounded. Can't escape. Then kill him. Who am I afraid of now? The projection of the big pineapple is here. You can still peel off its red lizard skin.
Go against the direction of the monster. I evaded for several days. Nothing new was discovered along the way. By then, my reconnaissance experience had increased a lot. finally. On the fourth day. From across the cracked plain. A faint red dot appeared within my sight.
what is that? I was shocked. Discovered at the same time. Monster density around the red dot. It turned out to be unprecedentedly dense. Even if the deer spirit transforms, he can't even think about lurking over to see what's going on.
He gritted his teeth. I roared. Transform into a blood bear. While startling most of the monsters. They are still stuck in a sluggish state. He immediately strode towards the red dot. One step is dozens of meters. There was no chance for other monsters to react. Just a whoosh. It brought huge gusts of wind and flew past.
Countless monsters were trampled to death and injured along the way. Those monsters finally woke up. Other melee monsters are fine. Far from keeping up with my speed. Those Destruction Knights are annoying. There are hundreds of Destruction Knights around. Throwing colorful magic over in a flurry. Fortunately, I am fast. The magic can only hit about half. It also has high resistance. Can only cause forced damage. But I can’t help but there are so many Knights of Destruction.
Growled. A black light flashed in his mouth. A blood bear energy cannon spat towards the densest number of these "turrets". As a violent explosion sounded. These destruction knights finally became timid. The pressure suddenly eased a lot.
It's just a pity that the broken product fell off. I glanced at the huge crater after the explosion with some distress. Still running straight towards the red dot.
When the target is less than one mile away. I finally saw the so-called red dot clearly. I originally thought it was some huge monster. There will be a big battle. Take a look now. Only then did he realize that it was a swirling red energy gate. It's at least ten meters in diameter. A steady stream of monsters are coming out of this door.
What on earth is this? My eyes narrowed. Resist the urge to find out. There are too many weird things going on in the world. Still no risk takers. To avoid losing your life. Let's go back and report to the dwarf elder first. Maybe he knows something.
