The stone door slowly opened back, and the hidden gears or hinges made a creaking sound as it turned.
Just as Yun Na imitated Xiao Fen's tone and said the slightly sarcastic sentence, a spectacular scene came into her eyes: behind the stone door was an extremely large rotunda - its area was amazing, and standing there
The other end of the circular wall cannot be seen from here; its dome is as deep as a canopy, making people breathless. The materials are all jade as dark as ink, like a canopy under the night sky, and the top is even more illuminated.
Gemstones set in an arrangement of stars.
Under the black screen, the twinkling stars are like eyes staring at the world; these stars are the only source of light in the entire hall, which are somewhat dim, but intertwined with each other like flowing waves.
A circle of thirteen gray stone pillars supports the dome. These stone pillars are carved with images of animals, some are weak, some are strong, but without exception they all have eyes that defy everything, lifelike and high above. Their surfaces
Reflecting a cold light, it can be seen that the material of these gray stones is not ordinary, perhaps it is an unknown jade.
Xiao Fen, Yun Na and Xue were silent at the same time, Maya and Fidelo also opened their mouths in surprise, and the temple members behind them all showed solemn expressions; excluding the pictographic spider patterns on the obsidian floor of the hall, everyone
Everyone can see that these thirteen stone pillars and this oppressive dome are not the work of Drow. Of course, they are not the work of the former owner of this castle, the ancient god!" Xue is outstanding in his attainments in religious knowledge. Almost
With one glance, he blurted out the origin of these thirteen stone pillar statues.
The girl's clear tone echoed back and forth in this relatively claustrophobic space, until a sharper and hoarse voice cut her off. A little earlier than I expected!" Leborina's voice was full of sarcasm, "There's no need to rush.
Go and die, my guests."
When Xiao Fen heard these words, he gently retracted his hand to push the door, raised his head and glanced in that direction. Some strange pictures came into his field of vision: the female drow known as the high priest was standing in the rotunda.
In the center, a formal black silk robe hung down to her feet. There were patterns of the moon and spider webs on it; she placed her hands on the altar in front of her, causing the altar to glow with a faint red light...or rather, blood light.
He quickly looked around again. Eight Siskena priests were prostrate in the eight directions of due south, due north, due east, due west, southeast, northeast, southwest and northwest. Their arms were forward.
Spread it out, the wound on the wrist is dripping with blood, and the black and purple blood flows along the ground to the magic circle in the center, and then is absorbed or evaporated. Zi sniffed, bit his lip and said.
After listening to Xue's words, Yun Na turned her attention to the magic circle in the center. "If you are summoning a top-level demon, then blood is a secondary sacrifice, and the soul is the superior one." Then she said lightly.
Maya looked at the female mage with disgust and subconsciously moved away from her.
Xiao Fen just gently smoothed the wrinkles on the black robe while catching the high priest's eyes. Soon he read the changes in the woman's eyes two or three times from the red pupils. He said, "I think it's just right. It's just that
It’s just not as good as someone’s wish.”
Leborina suddenly stopped chanting a prayer in her mouth, her eyelids drooped. A sharp light shot out from her narrowed eyes. In the temple of Ditris, she was just arrogant, thinking that she was the arrogance of a high-ranking person, but
But there was no sense of danger at the moment. The wandering and sharp gaze was like that of a truly shrewd hunter... The priest said categorically, as if a superior judge had made a definite crime for Xiao Fen and the others. With
The tone of voice calling for close comrades in arms whispered, "Come and make arrangements for these restless guests, the banquet will begin soon!" over and over.
Phedro grabbed the body of a temple warrior and threw it into the hall. The gorgeous dark adamantine mail and the twisted face of the deceased attracted everyone's attention. Leborina's voice stopped, and the hall was silent for a moment.
." The high priest asked sternly. Fen said.
Leborina closed her mouth, her eyes changed many times, and finally she nodded and said: "Very good." Her tone was very calm, making it impossible to tell whether she was sincere or suppressing great anger.
But Xiao Fen guessed it was probably the latter.
Then the entire hall fell into a brief silence. Leborina seemed to have no intention of continuing the ceremony. No one dared to act rashly. The situation fell into a strange stalemate.
Finally, Maya couldn't help but break the deadlock. She said to Leborina in the same mocking tone she used to speak to Xiao Fen at the beginning: "Does it feel bad? A betrayal that is very common in your world has made you fall short? It's a conspiracy. I
I've long been disgusted with this!" The priest was actually defeated by the betrayal -" Rena turned her furious gaze to Maya, and was so scared that the latter immediately fell silent." Xue frowned, "I repeat this sentence for the last time.
"If you fail, I will take your place." She said calmly. "Qier often said that everything was in my calculation. Although she may not believe this, it is true.
"Among them!"
Leborina hooked her fingers, and a ray of red light flashed across her fingertips. These heretics!" She roared angrily; the Siskena believers in the eight directions in the hall suddenly began to twist. A mixed mess
The blood and light of the black mist enveloped them, and screams came from the mist. Just hearing the sound was enough to make people's hair stand on end.
The shrill screams made Xiao Fen, Xue, Fidlo and even Maya take a step back in unison. Only Yun Na stepped forward and supported the ivory cane on the smooth obsidian floor. Ceremony. Stop her!"
The female mage ordered calmly. The Houdi Temple warriors all drew out their weapons. Amidst the sound of metal friction, these well-trained warriors stood in a row and blocked the front. The eyes of the Drow warriors were full of coldness. I believe that no matter whether it is killing
Or orders to die will be carried out by them without reservation.
At the same time, eight huge spiders jumped out from eight masses of black and red mist - these ugly creatures looked like sword spiders, but they were all black, dragging a huge scarlet belly like a black widow, and were covered with
There were hairs like steel needles, and several pairs of red compound eyes revealed a little bit of bloodthirsty light. Some spiders had a strange light in their eyes. The black-robed mage thought for a moment and considered: "Yun Na, you should consider
Accept this new title..." The female mage pursed her lips and smiled, not feeling embarrassed at all. "Haha, in fact, I only make crows occasionally -" she added playfully, and then raised her voice to remind others: "Be careful, these eight people
These guys are not ordinary spiders, they are the products of high-level priests who sacrificed their souls and channeled their souls - simply put, they are overdrafts of mortal power in exchange for divine power!"
At this time, Leborina's sharp voice rang out, "My guests are very knowledgeable, but you don't have to be nervous, this is just an appetizer!" Eight spiders pounced on their prey.
These terrifying creatures are more powerful than everyone expected. The swords of the temple warriors slid to the side after cutting on their hard carapace. Even if the drow priest's divine spell passed the saving throw, it was offset by the extremely high magic resistance, and the long-range physical attack
Not to mention, the poisoned crossbow arrows bounced away as soon as they hit the monster's body, having no effect at all.
And these giant spiders can sweep away several people with one swing of their blade-like limbs, and even directly split a drow warrior wearing thick armor in half, spraying blood in the sky.
Several temple warriors tried to bypass the spider to interfere with Leborina, but the spider immediately sprayed out streams of sticky silk. Once the wrist-thick spider silk sticks to the body, it is difficult to pull it apart, just like super glue.
The more they get entangled, the more they will be tied to the ground. Those who are unlucky will be suffocated to death.
The battle situation became more and more chaotic, but the high priest was not disturbed. On the contrary, she smiled secretly in her heart. The ceremony has entered the final stage, and soon there will be nothing to stop her. It makes me tremble!" Leborina shouted in her heart,
The power she summoned almost made her crawl down.
The black-robed mage suddenly shuddered and frowned. He could feel a huge force beginning to gather in this space. To be precise, a powerful force should be being called over. Xiao Fen
While thinking about this problem, he carefully hid behind himself, trying to prevent the six terrible spiders from noticing him (two spiders had been killed in the previous battle) - this was not a sign of cowardice, as a mage
, he knew very well what he should do and what he shouldn't do. He and Yun Na turned their heads at the same time and shouted at the same time.
Xiao Fen read the meaning of the two women from their eyes, nodded slightly, and made a decision in his heart. The black-robed mage's eyes were firm, his lips trembled slightly, and he softly uttered a few words, "I will disturb that woman!"
The female mage didn't talk too much at this time. She just stuck her ivory staff into the ground and whispered: "Arbiter, guardian and rule maker of space, I will act according to your wishes!" She raised her head, and the silver was flying.
, the blood eyes flashed with splendor; the next moment, the space seemed to freeze, and the flying silver threads were frozen at that moment...
The surroundings fell silent, and a twisted space barrier formed in front of the female mage, and all sounds seemed to be blocked. Wall!" Yun Na said word by word, and the ivory staff in her hand became extremely dazzling. Obviously.
This time the special effects of the artifact are activated.
Leborina's eyes were instantly drawn in this direction, "Concentrate and kill those three people!" She let out an angry roar, and the remaining six spiders knocked away the temple warriors and priests, carving a bloody path and crashing into Xiao.
Fen and the other three people collided with the twisted wall with their forelimbs, and the space trembled. Two transparent cracks appeared on the wall. Yun Na glanced at the cracks, and then calmly faced the two spiders in front of her with three pairs of blood-red and huge compound eyes.
.
Snow untied the snake whip, and when it spread out, it was like a beautiful black lily suddenly blooming; she took a breath and raised her head. "Staring in the dark night!"
Xiao Fen had never heard Xue recite a spell in such a tone. The resentful and ethereal tone seemed to be whispered by a banshee at the bottom of hell. It made people fascinated, and at the same time, a chill spread from the deepest part of his heart. He
After just being stunned for a moment, Xue's delicate leather goggles emitted a dazzling black light, and the three spiders illuminated by this light immediately turned into stone statues...
After casting this spell, Xue staggered.
Xiao Fen and even Yun Na may not know that the necklace is just a mission prop to become Siskena's divine attendant, and this eyepatch is the true symbol of the divine attendant. It is a powerful sub-artifact in itself, which will make it possible to carry
The person gains a powerful ability. That is the gaze of darkness once every three days - this special effect will turn all hostile creatures stared into stone statues until the sun shines on them again; but its curse effect is
After using Night Gaze, the Divine Attendant will lose the ability to blindsense within 72 hours.
Naturally, Xue would not let Xiao Fen know this, so she smiled cunningly and weakly, even though her eyes were only pitch black." At this time, Yun Na said calmly.
The black-robed mage glanced at Xue with concern, nodded, and slowly took a step back. The sound level increased again, and the remaining three spiders smashed the statues of their companions that were in the way. They began to attack the twisted wall again. The wall was in the process of impact.
There were obvious cracks underneath, and it looked like it would fall apart at any time.
Several smart drow warriors took this opportunity to escape from the spider's attention and attack the high priest, but Leborina simply raised her finger and wiped them out. The summoned power was entering her body, making her
She became more powerful. Si's voice became cold, without the emotional fluctuations, and she even showed a cold smile.
Success is just around the corner——
Xiao Fen took a step back and pressed the pale palm of his left hand against his chest. You could see the almost bloodless knuckles on the back of his hand, which looked a little nervous. Canaan did a good job in this regard. People who often cast spells and wore robes would know how to do it.
Although players often object to leaving this skin color behind, it does not hinder its authenticity. As well as the rule makers, I will act according to your wishes!" This spell appeared in Xiao Fen's mind. He suddenly remembered Yun Na's previous experience.
But the time did not allow him to think about it. The mage raised the staff in his right hand, and the head of the staff shot out a ray of purple light. And the rule maker. I act according to your wishes!" He chanted according to the spell, "Time stops!
"
The purple light of the black crystal staff flourished, and a wave of gray ripples emitted from Aigre's robe. All spaces eroded by these ripples solidified, became still, and finally became silent. The mage raised his head, and the edge of the hood cast a shadow on his cheek.
A deep shadow, but his eyes were bright and clear, as if he could see through everything." Xiao Fen stepped forward, and he saw the weird expressions of the three spiders who were still, as well as the temple warriors,
The priest's silent movements, and finally Yun Na's calmness and Xue's weak smile, he even saw Maya sneaking close to Leborina in the far corner.
But he didn't feel relaxed. The majestic power was about to move. Stopping time didn't seem to be able to lock it. It was shouting and roaring, trying to penetrate the constraints of space and the constraints of strong magic, defeating it.
Anyone who dares to stop it.
The mage felt humbled in front of this power. It was a truly humble and insignificant feeling... Xiao Fen occasionally came up with a thought that even made him feel scared.
He smiled noncommittally and walked slowly towards the center of the altar.
