It spewed out of a huge cave and then disappeared into the cave at the other end.
Elvis's seal is in the underground river of this dark cave.
It made full use of the terrain and took advantage of the vampire's weakness - the wound of flowing water.
Vampires in flowing water are just like humans in strong acid. They will be burned by strong acid all the time, and they will not give in to being exposed to sunlight.
Just this underground river gives these vampires endless headaches.
They couldn't go into the water, so they couldn't touch the true form of Elvis, the Son of God.
They wanted to block the source of the Dihe River and stop the flow of water.
It's just that the turbulence of this underground river is beyond imagination, it is wide and deep, and the current is so fast that they cannot stop it at all based on their ability.
Send the charming humanoid down to investigate.
It is said that Elvik, the son of God, was placed in a fine gold coffin that was cast into one body and tied with countless chains in the middle of the Earth River.
This is just a physical restraint, and a magical seal.
At least those humanoid creatures who were charmed didn't even have the ability to get close to the adamantine coffin.
It can be said that Gavin and his party arrived at the sealed place smoothly without any hindrance.
Not even a ghost was seen, let alone a human being.
But the more this happens, the more uneasy everyone becomes.
"Do you think it's possible that the vampire priest named Belinda already knew the news that her companions had been eliminated, and was afraid and fled in advance?" Darnell looked relatively optimistic.
"It's not impossible." Gavin did not deny this possibility, "But according to the vicious temperament of the drow, even if she retreats, it is impossible for her to do nothing. If she takes those captive Tethyr refugees
, all turned into zombies and attacked us, I believe she has already escaped."
"You mean there is probably a bigger trap waiting for us ahead?" Darnell frowned.
"It's almost the same." Gavin felt that his intuition was correct.
Exiting from here now will be a good choice.
But this proposal cannot be expressed no matter what.
Because there are still sixty-nine Tethyr refugees who have been kidnapped, and their lives are uncertain.
If you give up at this time, all your previous efforts will be in vain. It will be difficult for those Tethyr refugees to trust you again, let alone follow you to the Land of Three Rivers.
Even if it is proposed, except for the two people he brought, others may not agree.
There are some things that we know the road ahead will be difficult and dangerous, but we have to face it head on.
This is the case now.
"Master, the smell of blood is so strong. Someone is calling for help, but the voice is very weak." The dog demon with sharp ears and nose was the first to notice the abnormality.
Immediately afterwards, the expressions of the two paladins changed slightly, and they took long strides and ran towards the raging river.
"Be careful, there's a trap." Gavin shouted hurriedly.
However, the two paladins were eager to save people and turned a deaf ear to Gavin's reminder.
In other words, they knew from the beginning to the end that this was probably a trap and bait, just look at their shield-holding postures.
But their sacred mission as paladins forced them to go and check the situation.
"That damn bastard." Darnell roared angrily.
Gavin and the others followed Darnell closely, seeing clearly what was happening on the other side of the river, they couldn't help but take a breath of air.
A large number of humanoid creatures lay scattered across the river.
These humanoid races are very mixed, including humans, elves, hobgoblins, orcs, gnolls, etc. The majority of them are Tethyr refugees.
There are all kinds of things, more than two hundred.
Everyone's face was pale, and their hands and feet were tied tightly.
There were cuts on his hands and feet, and blood was slowly flowing into the river beach and into the river.
They didn't know how long it had been since their wrists were cut. The wound had no intention of healing on its own and was bleeding continuously.
Strangely, the Dihe River was turbulent, but the blood that flowed in was not washed away by the river water, but floated in place, dyeing one-third of the river surface red.
The arrival of Gavin and the others was like turning on a switch.
A dark light emitted from the top of the head, and a powerful suction force was generated.
Black shadows emerged from the bodies of the humanoid creatures whose wrists had been cut, and were sucked into a dry severed palm above their heads. It could be distinguished at a glance that this severed palm belonged to the drow, and there were many weapons on it.
A silver ring.
What is this if not the holy symbol of the living immortal Nemesis?
Those black shadows are naturally the souls of those humanoid creatures. With the injection of the first soul, the dry severed palm seems to have been injected with activity, and is regaining its activity at a speed visible to the naked eye.
As the Broken Palm recovered, stronger suction was generated, and more souls were pulled out of their bodies, injected into the Broken Palm, and then activated to let it emit stronger soul suction and harvest more souls.
It's a full circle.
Not to mention those humanoid creatures that were almost drained of blood and were dying.
Even Gavin and the others, when they were intact, could clearly feel the powerful suction coming from the Broken Palm, giving the impression that their souls were being sucked out of their bodies.
"This is a trap. The space here is locked and cannot be teleported." Lord Virginia reminded loudly with an ugly expression.
As the lord of the eladrin, under normal circumstances, even if she dies, her body will be reborn in the territory, provided that her soul can return.
The situation in front of me is obviously aimed at the soul.
That drow elf's broken hand doesn't look like a mortal thing.
Once the soul is sucked into this thing, you don't know what kind of situation you will face.
The Virginia lord didn't dare try it anyway.
After hearing Lord Virginia's reminder, Gavin immediately experienced the milestone skill of destiny - the Dragon Oak Mother Tree's error-free teleportation technique.
It is also in an unavailable state. Although there are differences in the casting process, it is essentially a kind of portal.
Being able to teleport and retreat at any time is their biggest trump card, but now it is banned.
Having said that, in a confrontation above Extraordinary, prohibiting teleportation is a routine operation.
Previously at Ghost Manor, Gavin used this trick to trick the drow Avengers.
Now I'm just the one being cheated.
"This is an evil god's sacrificial circle. It covers the entire cave. We are already at the center of the sacrificial circle. The drow vampire priest is preparing to sacrifice us to the immortal goddess of revenge." Extraordinary priest Olly
Fu then discerned their situation.
"It would be okay if we were just sacrificed, but we are now at the center of the battlefield." Gavin looked serious. They still underestimated the viciousness and cunning of the drow vampire priest named Belinda.
This is killing two birds with one stone.
That is, he prepares a fatal trap for an enemy of unknown origin to avenge his dead companions.
And she can fulfill the orders given to her by the immortal Nemesis.
Eliminating the blasphemer himself is the way to go.
As for herself, she no longer knew where she had gone to get up.
No matter whether it was successful or not, she had nothing to lose.
Even if there is a loss, it belongs to the Immortal Fury, not hers.
"The center of the battlefield?" Virginia and Gavin had the same mind, and were the quickest to react. "You mean, Belinda's ultimate goal is to extract the divine power of Elvis, the Son of God, through the sacrifice circle.
Sex? We are just sacrifices for the right occasion?"
"That's right, look over there, it's already started." Gavin pointed to the Dihe River.
Just now, their attention was all attracted by the unusual severed palm in the sky, but they did not notice that the ground river was also changing.
A large amount of blood just gathered together but never dispersed at first.
Now it has directly turned into a whirlpool, converging crazily towards the center of the river, exposing the things in the center to everyone's eyes.
That's a coffin.
A huge coffin made of fine gold.
It is covered with mysterious, exquisite, and elven-style runes.
There are eight fine gold chains as thick as an adult's thigh, firmly nailing the fine gold coffin to the bottom of the river.
Regarding the matter of the adamantine coffin, they had already heard the vampire spawn describe it before.
But hearing about it is one thing, seeing it with your own eyes is another.
When people hear incredible information, they will subconsciously think that the other party is exaggerating.
This is the case with the fine gold coffin. It is a fool's dream to say that some people still believe in the fine gold coffin.
Adamant gold is known as the hardest metal in Faerun, its hardness is twice that of steel. If the hardness of steel is 10, then the hardness of adamantine is 20, and the hardness of mithril is 15.
As long as a thumb-sized piece is integrated into the weapon, its hardness and sharpness can be greatly increased. It is called an adamantine weapon. The most important thing is that it can break through some special damage reduction, just like only silver or magic weapons.
Only then can he hurt the lycanthrope.
A piece of fine gold the size of a fist, when integrated into armor casting, will greatly increase the defense. Known as fine gold armor, it can obtain a certain degree of damage reduction. The specific amount of fine gold obtained depends on the amount of fine gold incorporated.
The battle armor Gavin wears is made of a mixed alloy of adamantine and mithril. The powerful damage reduction is largely due to adamantine.
In the market, even gold is priced at a certain price, let alone fine gold that is dozens of times more expensive.
The fine gold coffins and fine gold chains in the river are definitely measured in tons.
As for whether it is gold plated or alloy.
At the beginning, everyone may still have such suspicions, but when the violent impact sound came from the inside of the coffin, this suspicion disappeared.
The impact was so violent.
So much so that the entire heavy coffin was jumping wildly, and the thick fine gold chains were being belted with a loud clanking sound.
The Lord sealed in the adamantine coffin has awakened.
This is the result of the blood of those humanoid creatures.
Although the fine gold coffin was poured into a round shape, the person sealed in the coffin was not an ordinary person.
Especially after being sealed for so many years, with the help of the drow vampires, the magical seal has been greatly weakened.
It is not difficult to extract blood from the underground river into the coffin through the air.
The blood essence of hundreds of humanoid creatures allowed this legendary vampire to regain part of his strength, and he struck harder, with a posture that would never give up until he broke free from the seal.
When the sealed object in the coffin moved, the broken palm of the drow in the air also moved.
It originally changed from being upright to pressing down, showing a false grasping posture. The target it aimed at was not Gavin and his party, but the adamantine coffin.
Although the drow's Broken Hand is powerful, it is ultimately a dead thing without anyone operating it.
There will be no optimization and trade-offs, but the originally set procedures will be followed.
It's obviously a false arrest, but it has terrifying power.
Bang.
The adamantine coffin no longer swings wildly, but rises, and all eight adamantine chains are stretched tightly, groaning in pain.
It seems that there is a terrifying force that is tearing at the fine gold chain, trying to uproot it.
And doing so is the most stupid thing.
Because this represents the eight fine gold chains, all of them are stressed, and the one that is very even has the strongest locking force.
This principle is the same as uprooting a tree.
It is far less labor-intensive than swinging it back and forth, or pulling it sideways.
The next second, Gavin and the others knew.
It's not that the person who set up the sacrificial circle is stupid, it's that she is not helping the other party out of trouble, but directly extracting what she needs from the other party.
