Broad World

Now that the team leader has a complete plan and has made a promise, it is difficult for others to continue asking. They walked through a fetid ditch to a locked iron gate. Since they had the keys in their hands, everyone opened the door without any difficulty and entered the spacious underground hall.

This is the hiding place of one of the elemental liches who sealed Kangus. Henry came here once, but now it has been used as a hiding place by several blind men. Perhaps as some scientific experiments have proved, once humans lose their eyesight, the remaining sensory organs will rapidly increase by tens or even hundreds of times. Before he could speak, one of the blind men spoke first.

"Ah...be careful, friends. I can feel someone walking into this hall."

Seri Love frowned and muttered in a low voice: "Tell again, there are so many guys without eyes, they must all be believers in the blind eye."

Although the voice is very different from normal speech. He hurriedly got up from the ground and waved his hands to explain: "No, ma'am, we are not. Uh... It is correct to say that we used to believe in it, but now we don't believe it anymore."

"Oh? Can you tell me why?" Seri Love asked with wide-eyed eyes. "So you should know the true face of this so-called only true god? Can you tell us?" Kaidong hurriedly asked. In his eyes, as long as he can find the mastermind behind the scenes, the task will be considered complete, because as long as he can confirm that he is not a true god, he can report to the council and send troops to wipe it out.

"It's a beholder. But it's not an ordinary beholder. Not only can it grant true magic to believers, but there is also a whole army of beholders lurking below. It is the leader of these evil monsters and has very powerful power. Just one glance can turn a person into a statue." As he spoke, the blind man named Shasar showed a frightened expression on his face.

After hearing the true face of the blind eye, Kaidong turned around in surprise and asked Henry: "Have you ever heard of an example of a beholder becoming a demigod or a god?"

"It's impossible, because the blood of all the beholders comes from the "Grand Mistress" on the sixth floor of the bottomless abyss. As descendants of a powerful abyss lord, they themselves are very resistant to divinity, not to mention becoming gods, even There is no precedent for divine creatures." From this point of view, this kind of creature rejects things related to gods, whether it is concept or bloodline, how could there be a beholder who can bestow divine spells? There must be some ulterior secret hidden here, maybe related to the artifact hidden in the dungeon, but you must see it with your own eyes to confirm.

"It seems that our investigation will continue, at least to find out the special features or weaknesses of this beholder." After speaking, Kaidong couldn't help sighing. This incident was the weirdest among the many cults he had investigated, and the enemies were quite difficult to deal with.

After listening to the conversation between the two, Shasar suddenly said: "My lords, if you want to destroy the blind eye, I have a suggestion. The reason why this powerful beholder settled here is to obtain the underground That powerful artifact. It is said that it was an item with destructive power, so the gods decided not to use it, and split it in half, one half was hidden in the underground temple, and the other half had been beholder get."…

"As far as I know, the half-piece of the artifact placed in the underground temple was protected by a powerful force, the Beholder, who sent countless men to snatch it, but all of them failed without exception, and none of them came back alive. I believe that as long as you can obtain the power of this artifact, you will be able to use it to destroy the blind eye..."

Before the blind man could finish speaking, Henry interrupted him and asked, "Since this artifact is so powerful, why don't you go by yourself?"

He always felt that this guy in front of him had some other purpose, because these words were all good at first glance, but he didn't mention a word about danger.

"Because... because that artifact is cursed, a curse personally issued by the gods, not to mention... only half of the artifact is useless, only... only when the other half is retrieved from the hands of the beholder can it possess destructive power." Sha Thrall replied stammeringly. He looked a little flustered, obviously he didn't expect someone to see through the trap behind him.

"Hmph! Let me tell you, it turned out that it was the curse of the gods, and they were going to sneak into the beholder's lair. No wonder you went by yourself. It turns out that you want us to die." Henry released a murderous look, and the temperature of the entire hall Instantly lowered a lot. He hates this kind of smart guy the most. Although death is not a crime, it is still necessary to scare him.

But before he could do anything, Kai Dong stopped him. He shook his head and said, "Forget it, although this person concealed the danger of this mission, the information he provided is still very useful, and no matter how dangerous it is, we have to go, don't we?"

"Well, let's forget it this time, if there is another time..." Speaking of this, the corners of Henry's mouth turned up slightly, showing a very evil smile.

Shasar was frightened and quickly waved his hands. "I promise there will be no next time! As long as you get back half of the artifact, I can provide a passage to the Beholder Cave."

"Then I will look forward to it first, and hope that I will not play any tricks this time. You must know that the endurance of a paladin is also limited, and I will not protect you next time." After speaking, Henry led his teammates to the hall Go to another exit. It's getting late now, he needs to find a safe place to camp as soon as possible, and contact Aimon by the way, to see why this troublemaker hasn't come back yet.

Go straight along the dark tunnel, and you will come to the end after a short walk. Here is a downward spiral staircase, because it is too dark to see how deep it is. Seeing this, Hina immediately took out a dagger, blessed it with a "light technique" and threw it down.

I saw a small ball of light falling rapidly and getting smaller and smaller until it disappeared into the darkness. It took a long time before the sound of landing was heard. Obviously, this place is very high from the ground floor. If you rely on the stairs, you may not be able to finish it in an hour or two.

"Okay, it's time to climb the stairs, I hope there will be no accidents in the middle." After speaking, Kaidong couldn't help but sighed. For a paladin his age, that kind of physical work was the worst.

Henry smiled and asked back: "Why climb the stairs? We can use a faster method. For example, jump directly..."

As soon as the words fell, he opened his arms and pushed the three teammates and himself down together.

Seri Love was so frightened by the airflow generated by the rapid fall that she closed her eyes, tightly holding the weapon in her hand, trying to gain some psychological comfort. But all this is in vain, because except for the guys who can really fly, most creatures are afraid of heights. This is a protective command of the brain, which is basically difficult to overcome.

Xina was even more excited and directly transformed into a dragon man, flapping her huge wings to slow down her falling speed. But judging from her pale face, these wings are definitely not as good as a real dragon.

Kaidong no longer cared about his demeanor and shouted at Henry: "Damn! You are crazy! We will all be thrown to death!"

"Hahahaha! Don't worry, I will make sure everyone lands safely." Henry replied with a big smile. Not only is he not nervous now, but he is somewhat enjoying the excitement brought about by this high-altitude fall.

This kind of enjoyment didn't last long, and everyone soon saw the light spot appearing below again, and then it became bigger and bigger, and they saw the ground in just a few seconds. At the moment when they were about to collide, Henry opened his mouth and uttered a syllable, followed by the magic being cast.

The space with a radius of more than three meters was suddenly filled with special magical energy. Everyone found that their bodies suddenly became very light, and at the same time, the speed of their descent also slowed down, falling slowly to the ground like a feather. . This is the first-level magic "Feather Fall", which mages usually use to save their lives when they fall from a high altitude.

However, the duration of this magic is increased by six seconds for each level of casting, and the range of influence is only about three to four cubic meters. If you do not grasp the time and distance well, you may be killed or injured directly. Every year, many low-level mages die from the "feather fall technique", some of them are due to their own reasons, but more are because of the enemy's "dispelling magic" in mid-air.

The reason why Henry dared to use this spell here was firstly because there were no enemies around, and secondly because of the night vision ability brought by the "Ring of Gus". No matter which one of these two is missing, he will not take risks lightly. After all, safety is the first priority for the caster.

After landing, Seri Love finally couldn't bear it anymore, leaned against the wall and began to vomit. When she was in mid-air, her complexion was not very good. It's a pity that she has been able to bear it until now. Uncle Kaidong's image is a little better, but it's not much better. His legs and hands were shaking constantly, and he seemed to be quite shocked.

Seeing the miserable appearance of the two paladins, Henry laughed and said, "How, I said everyone will land safely."

"You are such a bastard! I almost had a heart attack. Next time I do this kind of thing, I'd better say hello in advance. I'm old and I can't stand this kind of stimulation." Said Kai Dong clapped Patted his chest. If he hadn't experienced enough, he probably wouldn't be much better than Bili Love. Although paladins are not afraid of evil monsters, human nature such as fear of heights cannot be overcome. u
