Chapter 18 Eliminate all possible options, the remaining one is still the truth no matter how ridiculous it is
Mark looked at the two spellcasters in front of him and let out a long sigh: "The princess has grown up."
The catman said next to him: "Isn't this good? It's much better than those disgusting nobles. Moreover, he is the beloved disciple of the legendary archmage. He has a dimensional bag on his body, so there must be other good things. When the time comes, Her Royal Highness will transform.
, became the marriage partner with the Archmage Tower, my God!"
Mark: "I'm just sighing. But it's true that the mage is much better than other nobles. Come on, let's just be a good guard for the princess when she falls in love. But the mage is really good at choosing places, in the sewer
Talk about love."
"They haven't reached that stage yet, but you see, making a girl find you interesting is the first step in starting a relationship."
At this time, the dwarf in front shouted: "We are going deeper into the ground. I feel some undead souls who may be able to stretch their muscles."
"Okay!" Wang responded.
Elizabeth: "Everyone is used to treating you as the captain."
"This should have been the job of a bard or a paladin." The king shrugged.
At this time, just as the dwarf predicted, the ground began to tilt, and it was obvious that a group of people were heading deeper underground.
Elizabeth frowned: "It stinks even more..."
Wang nodded: "The sachets given by the people from the Change Department don't even work anymore."
Elizabeth asked the front: "How far is it before the goblin tribe is wiped out?"
"You have to ask the drow who leads the way." The dwarf's voice floated back from the front.
Wang: "It should be deeper. Wait a minute, there is a carving on the stone wall here."
Wang leaned over and saw that the lichen on the wall shrank immediately after being illuminated by the bright light, revealing the carvings on the mottled stone wall below.
"This is a carving from the Second Age. This symbol is the emblem of the human kingdom that ruled Quasania in the Second Age."
Elizabeth also came over: "Do you even recognize this? Are you really eighteen years old?"
"It's just a badge." Wang said nonchalantly, "Look at this mural, the Second Age was colder than now, and Cosania was covered in ice and snow most of the time."
Elizabeth: "Why are you painting these in the sewers?"
"This is not necessarily a sewer. The Second Age was relatively cold, and some human countries deliberately built urban access roads underground to keep out the wind and cold."
"So this is the Main Street of the Second Age?" Elizabeth asked.
"possible."
At this moment, Marika suddenly appeared: "Your Highness!"
The princess was startled: "Ah? Marika? You scared me."
Cat Man interjected: "His Royal Highness is addicted to the world of the two of the mage brother."
Malika ignored this and said in a low voice, "I found new traces of goblin activity. It's clear that the goblin tribe has been wiped out before!"
Wang: "A lot?"
"I judge that it is a fairly large goblin hunting team. It is unusual for a tribe to organize such a hunting team. It may be about the same size as the tribe that was wiped out last week."
Wang immediately became serious: "That means there will be hobgoblin war mages, and even bugbears. Marika, how many goblin war mages can you handle?"
Marika: "I don't know, it won't be less. But I still object to moving forward. I am a wanderer and not good at protecting people. You are in danger."
Wang was about to speak, but suddenly stopped and frowned.
"I have an ominous premonition." He muttered.
The drow looked serious: "A prophecy mage has an ominous premonition. This is one of the most terrifying things I have ever encountered in my many years of adventure."
Then she watched the mage take out an exquisite tin staff that was only as long as his upper arm from the dimensional bag.
Elizabeth: "A staff? What kind of magic staff?"
When this kind of staff appears in the hand of a mage, it generally means that it contains a certain spell, which can be activated with a short activation word. These staffs generally have a limit on the number of times they can be used. After all the times are used up, you need to find a master to make magic items.
The mage recharges him.
"The staff is equipped with a spell to detect evil and can be used fifteen times. This is a farewell gift from my senior brother." After Wang finished speaking, he recited a brief spell, and the head of the staff immediately released a bright light——
At that moment, he and the staff formed an empathy, and a huge amount of information was fed back into his brain.
The amount of information was so huge, it was like a heavy hammer hitting the mage's soft cerebral cortex.
He staggered, and upon seeing this, Elizabeth immediately stepped forward and supported him, using herself as the mage's support point.
The staff fell to the ground with a clang, and then rolled into the underground river running next to it - that was the river that collected all the filth in the city.
The light of the staff was instantly swallowed up by the filth.
The king shouted: "Evil! A huge amount of evil! We are surrounded! Neutral evil, lawful evil, two evil creatures mixed together to surround us! A large amount of evil! A huge amount of evil!!"
Because he looked at Elizabeth's secondary sexual characteristics supporting him when he said this, it seemed like he was joking.
But the girl had no time to pay attention to this. She shouted loudly: "Be careful! There are evil creatures nearby! The number..."
She glanced at Wang, who had just calmed down, and added: "The number is extremely huge!"
The next moment, the priest's incantation came from the front.
Immediately afterwards, Kailin's sacred light fell, illuminating the surroundings.
The dwarf priest held up the holy symbol and cursed: "Damn evil creature!"
The creatures at the front howled, and Kailin's brilliance was obviously very unfriendly to their eyesight that was accustomed to the dark underground environment!
The Holy Light also made everyone see the situation clearly.
Outside the 60-foot dark vision range of the dwarves in front of the team, the goblins were waiting for the team to step into the encirclement.
Elizabeth was petrified and hugged the king tightly. The drow, who was obviously more reliable, was right next to her.
However, the mage who was hugged was wondering: "No, goblins are neutral evil. Where are the lawful evil ones?"
"In the back." Cat Man's voice came from behind.
When the king turned around, he saw that on the stairs at the back that should have led to the shallow level, the kobolds had formed a complete military formation, and even used tattered wooden shields to form a shield wall.
The catman's bow and arrow shot into the back through the gap in the shield, triggering a series of screams.
Then the ranger fired his bow and arrows and turned around and shouted: "Quick, commander! Think of something!"
Mark nervously stood beside the archer.
From the front of the team, the roars of barbarians and the sound of axes opening ladles for goblins could be heard.
Malika loyally guards the princess. Maybe she has calculated that only by shrinking her defense can she protect the princess - as for the others, Drow may have chosen to give up.
When the enemy was approaching, Wang frowned and shouted: "This is unreasonable!"
He lowered his head and glanced at Elizabeth, who barely managed to pull herself together and stabilize her body.
"Why use such a large array to kill the vase?"
Anger instantly appeared on Elizabeth's face, and the shock of the enemy's appearance was overcome by this anger: "What did you say?"
The king continued to mutter, not as if he was answering the princess's question: "If one party can mobilize the goblins and kobolds underground, this will be a huge advantage. In the future, when they start to seize the throne, the evil creatures that suddenly appear from the underground can disrupt everything the opponent has.
Deployment! Is there no reason to expose it now?”
Suddenly, Wang took a breath of air.
"I figured it out!" He turned to look at Elizabeth, then grabbed the girl's shoulders and shook her excitedly as he said, "After eliminating all possible options, the remaining option is still the truth no matter how ridiculous it is!"
The girl was a little confused by the shaking: "What? What are you talking about?"
Wang stopped shaking and stabbed the girl's chest with one hand, but was blocked by the barrier formed by the wrist guard: "The person who attacked us is not one of the parties who want to seize the throne. The person who attacked us wants to prevent us from investigating other things! And kill us now."
It can also muddy the waters and facilitate the mastermind’s plan!”
Elizabeth opened her mouth in an O shape: "What are you talking about... We are just investigating the disappearance of stray cats and dogs?"
The king snapped his fingers: "You have won the lottery, Princess! Although I don't know what the mastermind behind the scenes is doing, it is obvious that your investigation has made him determined to obliterate us with his invincible army of evil creatures!"
Dwarf: "Congratulations on guessing the answer! My holy symbol is about to be destroyed, please think of a way!"
