Gou is a dark elf in Warhammer

Chapter 276 126. Don't Look Back

Malekith didn't immediately break the spell on the wall, he was watching, and he could see that the glyphs inlaid on these connection points were different from the square glyphs adorning them.He observed the magic left by the Old Sage or the Slann magic priest. He tried to learn more from the construction of this spell. He might be able to return to Naggaroth and build a better one in his black tower. Hidden places, shielded from his mother's ever-present eyes and ears, doing things he didn't want his mother to notice so he wouldn't have to be in the throne room every day.

"Ah!~ What an interesting structure!" Malekith sighed with aria, and then pointed his right index finger on the spell connection point on the wall.

The spell that had been dormant for more than six thousand years was activated again, and the stone wall at the back of the Skinlizard community building began to slowly open. Malekith drew out his Yangyan sword and entered first.

The Druccis who were following Malekith also drew their weapons and began to enter in an orderly manner. They cautiously crossed the fallen stones and entered the darkness.

Malekith stepped on the steps, striding ahead of Drucci, pausing now and then to run his fingers over the stonework of the passage, or to taste the air he couldn't smell.

As the Duruccis advanced, the ceiling of the passage began to lower and the passage was sealed off, or rather, dead-end!

It feels like a conversion room to Daxus, a space where water and air are replaced.

The Druccis pulled out their witchfire lamps, and Drusala and Colonia unleashed their light spells, and the darkness retreated reluctantly, and the light returned to them.

"Wait!" Malekith suddenly stopped in front of the dead end, turned his head to one side, as if listening to a distant sound, and then stretched out his right index finger and raised it up in the air.

The Druccis who followed Malekith looked at each other. It might be a formality to some extent that they came here to take risks, but they felt that His Majesty the Witch King who was walking in front of them was more serious than them, as if Already fully immersed in the adventure.

Some peripheral Duruccis can't feel anything, such as those family guards from the disaster of hell and some followers of the Dacius brothers, they are not qualified to approach His Majesty the Witch King.

But Du Luqi, who can talk to His Majesty the Witch King, feels a little different. Since His Majesty the Witch King got the Yangyan Sword last night and sat there watching them eat, they felt that His Majesty the Witch King seemed to be Changed a Durucci, the whole Durucci has changed.

The Druccis don't know if this is the change after His Majesty the Witch King obtained the Yangyan Sword, or if he continues to play role-playing games and immerse himself in Lustria's adventures, or something else?
The one who touched me the most here was Maranul. Although Maranur was his younger brother's agent to the outside world, he was nominally the adjutant of His Majesty the Witch King. He sometimes had to enter the throne room to deal with Malekith.He felt that the current Malekith was just like his younger brother after he returned from the trial voyage of Haksye. The whole Drucci had changed. Although he was still standing there, his movements, language and demeanor seemed to have changed. This change is very subtle, but people around you can still notice and feel it immediately.

The same is true for Sirsis, who has served His Majesty the Witch King for a hundred years, and his feelings are deeper than Malanur, but he believes that this is because His Majesty the Witch King has regained the sword of the first Phoenix King. The sword changed His Majesty the Witch King, and caused a qualitative change in His Majesty the Witch King's temperament and demeanor.Although he is a fear lord, a soldier and a warrior, but Naggaroth has never separated military and political affairs. As a person who is only loyal to His Majesty the Witch King, he understands the significance of Malekith regaining the Sunflame Sword. The loudest of the compliments last night.

I just don't know if His Majesty the Witch King is still the same His Majesty the Witch King after returning to Nagareth.

"My lord, what is this?" Dacius walked over and asked curiously like a fan.

Dacius knows that pretending to be unobtrusive is tantamount to walking in night clothes, so he has to stand up and act as a fan when necessary.

"Some kind of pressure plate." Malekith said with his outstretched fingers slowly pointing to a golden slab on the ground in front of him.

Drusala and Dakuus had the same sympathy, and the ball of light she cast before floated slowly so that the Druccis behind could see it.

For a moment all the Druccis were staring up at the metal plate at Malekith's feet, which gleamed in the dim light.

Even in this dim light, however, the Duruccis could not mistake the material used for the sheet metal.

A complex checkerboard shape is set into its smooth metal, engraved with strange cubic ideograms of lizardmen, feathers and skulls.

"Ah~ it's gold!" Dacius said rather pompously, rubbing the sweat from his palms when he said it, but he was not stupid and ready to bend down and reach out to touch it.

"This is also a mechanism!" Malekith's voice was choked with excitement.

Dacius raised his head and glanced at Malekith in surprise, just as the Duruccis looked at each other again because of Malekith's tone of voice.

Malekith suddenly raised his right foot, strode over, and stomped hard on the mechanism.

As there were no hidden arrows, rolling stones or other traps in the trigger channel of the mechanism, the dead end in front of the Druccis began to creak and move, and then a wide space appeared.

The light technique was useless at this moment, the passageway was filled with golden light, and the sudden change in vision prevented the Duluchis, who already had keen night vision ability, from reacting immediately.

Malekith ignored the Duruccis behind him, instead he walked in with a big laugh, as if he was going out with his head up and laughing.

Drusala and Colonia glanced at each other. They knew that there were organs and magic winds flowing on the golden hair pressing board just now, but His Majesty the Witch King attached the spell to his feet and cracked it violently. The two of them glanced at the four sorceresses around them again, and after finding that they hadn't noticed, they looked at each other again, and smiled tacitly at each other, and no one said anything, after all, this was in the passage.

This place is indeed like the legend passed down by Skogie. There are countless treasures in the virtual lake. After entering the stone gate, there is a rather wide space filled with gold.

Dacius ignored the fact that the space was covered with raw gold that had not yet been refined, nor did he look at the random lumps of gold and gold jewelry, but observed the environment in the space. He was sure that this place was once made of Skinlizard jewelry. The workshop where the writers worked, which he visited once when he was in Hesiota.

After checking around, Dacus, who found nothing wrong, shook his head at the Druccis behind him, indicating that they could visit.

Julian walked out first. He picked up a refined gold brick and put it in his hand to feel the weight. He put the five-kilo gold brick back with a strange expression. This kind of gold bricks can only be found in the warehouses of the rich and powerful in Germany, and it cannot be seen in the outside world or on the black market, but the gold here is like worthless bricks.

If Naggarond once appeared, it represented a bloody storm, a night of killing, gangs or families would be shattered and disappeared because of this situation, because Julian had done such work several times, After all, he spent a lot of money in Naggarond.

The other Druccis also dispersed, and formed their own groups to look around the gold. The visual impact of the gold here is more gorgeous than the gemstone mine the day before yesterday. After all, it is a gemstone mine with different senses, and here is even Like a treasury that has been silent for thousands of years.But they just picked it up and looked at it, and didn't have the idea of ​​wearing it in their arms. After all, the Witch King's Hand didn't say anything, let them take it.

Malekith just glanced at the gold, and continued to observe the indoor environment. He wanted to find the exit, but there was nothing to find. This is where the lizardmen sleep and work.

"I only know that this place is called Zulx." Chupa Keke shook his head when he said it, and spread his left hand that was not holding a weapon.

Dacius nodded. It seems that the rest has to be asked by Master Ma. Maybe only Master Ma knows the information here?It was completely unplanned that he was standing on the empty streets of Zulx. If he remembered correctly, he came out this morning to help Ren get the blessing of the ancient saint Huangqi?Now it has deviated significantly.

Durucci walked on the streets of Zulx looking left and right, and looked up at the city from time to time. They saw the swollen walking corpses floating above the city and the sky that was still raining heavily. flow.

This strange feeling is like entering the glass tunnel of the aquarium and watching the fish swimming in the water, but there are no fish or donkeys in the virtual lake.

After thinking about it, Dacius looked at Ren next to him, and Ren followed his line of sight.

"My lord, there should be the Huangqi Temple and the location here. I sensed it when I was by the lake." Ren pointed in a direction while speaking.

Ren didn't say anything after he finished speaking, not because he didn't have the right to speak, but because Dacius made a reassuring gesture and expression to him.

Dacus didn't let the Druccis scatter to look for something. Although he didn't know why he came here suddenly, he wouldn't be stupid to let the Druccis scatter to look for something. He didn't want to count the number of people. A few less time.

Malekith, who was walking in the front, suddenly stretched out his hand and ordered the Druccis to stand by.

Seeing the gesture of His Majesty the Witch King, the Druccis immediately reacted, drew their weapons and formed a battle formation to guard the surroundings.

Malekith quickly sensed the direction, and he waved for the Druccis to follow him.He felt that unusual wind of magic again. He could clearly feel the suction of something nearby forming a vortex of wind of magic. He could feel the strangeness of this underwater city. He came here One purpose was to see what was going on with this vortex. He followed that vortex accurately and found the source of the abnormality directly.

Durucci didn't know how long they had been walking. Dacus took out his pocket watch and took a look, only to find that the hands of the pocket watch had stopped moving, and time seemed to be useless here.

What appeared in front of the team was a pyramid-shaped building. Although it was not high, it was very wide. It seemed that it was slapped hard by a palm that fell from the sky. It was flattened and its shape was very distorted. passage, but the upper floors were almost invisible due to the influence of the magic wind.

"Zongqi, why is this pyramid like this? It's distorted!" Chupa Keke exclaimed looking at the pyramid in front of him.

"Is there any trace of chaos here?" Dacius was quite surprised when he saw this strangely shaped pyramid at first, and then he thought about something. After all, this is the place where the demon prince of Slaanesh, Xila Ulan, was exiled during the Great Invasion , he walked behind Malekith and asked in a low voice.

"No!" Malekith thinks that this building is a temple of lizardmen, and it should be dedicated to the Old Sage or some other power. He can't speculate for the time being. Perceived the power of chaos.

"You arrange it, let's go in and have a look." Malekith looked at the pyramid and continued to say to Dacius.

Dacius nodded. Since there is no power of chaos, he must go in and have a look. After all, he has come, and he feels that the stone slab is inside.There are no other buildings nearby, only this golden pagoda stands alone in a huge and irregular square in front of his eyes.

Dacius ordered the Druccis to temporarily stand guard around the pyramid. He only called Drusala and Colonia. He originally wanted to call Alyssa, but he saw Alyssa The spring fruit egg in the satchel dispelled this idea, and he didn't want any accidents to the spring fruit egg.

There is also Chupa Keke as the anchor point. Dacius thinks that there is no need for other Drucci warriors to enter this dead silent and weird pyramid, and he doesn't think there is anything that needs to be solved physically. And Malekith who was at the front.

After getting ready, the team of five people entered the inside of the pyramid along a channel that had been tilted.

After walking along the passage for a while, the group of five appeared outside the pyramid again. Then, under the watchful eyes of the Duruccis who were patrolling, guarding and resting outside, they entered again, and appeared outside the pyramid shortly afterwards.

Malekith didn't get cranky, he seemed to be soaking up the adventure, he felt the winds of magic swirling around him, he could feel a barrier in the passage, blocking him from somewhere within.

Finally, Malekith found a place where the wind of magic fluctuated most violently. Although he searched carefully, he couldn't find the source. He walked to the place where several energy streams collided.

"I can feel the slate...vomit." Dacius began to retch uncontrollably halfway through his words. Laughing loudly, he retched a few more times, then pointed to the stone wall of the passage and continued, "Ouch, it's right behind!"

"You should close your eyes and hit it! This way your pain will be lessened." Malekith said half-jokingly and half-seriously to Daxus who was supported by Drusala and Colonia .

Dacius tried to suppress his retching, and raised his head to look at the stone wall in front of him. Combining Malekith's words with the experience he had gained from his previous adventures in the ruins of temple cities, he guessed that maybe the stone wall in front of him The wall is not a stone wall?But a passage blocked by blindfolds?Without hesitation, he signaled to the sorceress who was supporting him to let go. He straightened his body, and he didn't even stop a step away from the stone wall, nor did he stretch his arms towards the stone wall, but walked straight towards the stone wall.

Just when Drusala saw that Dacius was about to hit the stone wall, Dacius' figure disappeared behind the stone wall.

The two sorceresses didn't even look at each other, nor paid attention to Malekith, but immediately followed the stone wall where Dacius entered.

Standing there, Malekith smiled and shook his head. He thought that he once served Isir, and he also encountered a similar situation when he was adventuring in the Chaos Wasteland, but Isir did not trust him at that time. At his behest, Er reluctantly hit the stone wall.

Just when Malekith was still trying to remember, the lizard man who had a closer relationship with Dacius appeared in front of him. The lizard man raised his head and tilted his neck to give him a strange look, and then pointed to the stone. The wall, and then entered the stone wall.

When Dacius found himself standing on a strange and winding staircase after entering the stone wall, he almost fell on the stairs.He immediately supported the wall next to him to prevent him from falling. He raised his head to look at this strange staircase, and found that it didn't seem to be a staircase?It is formed after being squeezed.

The stairs ascend relatively shortly, and in this magical city of temples, concepts such as time and distance become increasingly irrelevant.

Malekith smiled and put his iron hand on Dacius's shoulder, signaling Dacius to rest for a while. He bypassed Dacius and walked straight to the front of the team. After climbing up the stairs, the five people The group enters a strange room, which is completely dark.

There was nothing in the space. The air and walls absorbed the light spell cast by the sorceress. Even with the faint light, Dacius couldn't see ten steps ahead.

Malekith waved his hand to signal the team behind him not to move. He walked forward cautiously with the Yangyan sword and entered the only passage. There was a creaking sound under his feet, and he found that the stone bricks under his feet were squeezed. The pressure and cracking became disorganized and rough, but this did not hinder his progress. He waved his hand to signal the team to follow.

As the team deepened, more and more crunching sounds came from under their feet, and the ground was covered with unidentifiable bones. The team could only bite the bullet and step on the bones to move forward.

When Dacius was walking hard, he still looked down at the bones under his feet. He was sure that these bones were not from lizardmen, nor from elves, nor from humans or dwarves, let alone from the Yankees.

The skeletons were covered in a shroud-like shroud, each wore a chain of shattering beads around its neck, and each skeleton held a jagged, angular sword in its right hand and a With a square shield, these incomplete utensils were obviously smashed by a huge force, without any patterns or marks that Dacius could recognize.

In terms of proportion, these skeletons are also very strange. They have short torsos like elves and long limbs, but their bones are as thick as humans, and their height is slightly higher than that of halflings.Their faces are very thin, as if the entire skull has been elongated, showing a discus shape, and sharp teeth grow from the mouth and expand outward.

"I have been to the Chaos Wasteland, and I have seen similar skeletons there. These creatures may have appeared in more ancient times, from ancient times to before the arrival of the Old Sage." Malekith, who was at the forefront of the team, kicked away the underfoot Said behind a skull.

After Malekith finished speaking, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. He suddenly turned his head and saw that the line was stretched unconsciously, although he was sure that he was walking in a straight line, and he only walked less than a hundred steps. , but the shimmering light emitted by the sorceress's light spell is like distant starlight in the dark.Suddenly, the group reappeared quite far to his right, and higher than he was now, and he saw Dacius stop and look around for the direction of his voice.

"Forward! Don't look back!" Malekith knew that there was a problem here, and after he shouted, he continued to walk forward quickly.

"There is a problem here!" Colonia whispered, pointing to the figure of Malekith who was walking in the front, and Malekith who should have been there had disappeared at this time.

"Keep going!" Dacius looked over. Although he couldn't see Malekith anymore, Malekith's voice still echoed in his ears, and he also felt that the stone slab was not far ahead. place, he said decisively.

After passing through the passage, Dacius and Malekith appeared in a hall.

Dacius could clearly perceive that Malekith came out of another passage, but soon his attention was attracted by a device in the space.

"The Shaping Engine!" Dacius looked at the room in front of him in amazement. He knew why Zulx did this, it was because of the Shaping Engine in front of him!
Dacius moved his eyes away from the slowly rotating sphere on the Shaper Engine, and tried to observe the room through the light emitted by the sphere. It was hard to say how big the room was, the ceiling and the distant walls Being covered by darkness seemed to give him a feeling of leaving the planet and being in the vast universe.

Around Dacius lay more skeletons, and though they differ in form, they are all alike in one respect.Every skeleton, without exception, was vaporized in an instant, and all the white bones could be seen.

Dacus saw the bones of the lizardmen, to be precise, because he saw the triceratops skulls and polearms that temple guards usually only wear on the heads of temple guards, and he even saw Arrived at a vacant Chengyu.

"These temple guards fought Slan on Chengyu to the end." Dacius could think about what happened here for a moment.

Perhaps during the great invasion, the lizardmen in the city evacuated urgently, and the Slann magic priests who stayed here tried to activate the world-shaping engine, and the temple guards protecting the Slann magic priests kept fighting, and the temple guards fought to the last moment , until the Shaper Engine starts!

The moment the Shaping Engine started, the huge energy emitted directly gasified the creatures that were still fighting the last second.

Dacius raised his head again and looked at the Shaping Engine that was still running slowly.

　Some readers may be curious, didn't they talk and beat Harken and then build a colony, why did they come to take risks?
　　Well, this is actually the main line. .
