The arrival of shadow plunges nearby creatures into deep darkness.
In the darkness where he could not see his fingers, the warg who had been subdued by the Druid began to move again. He did not take advantage of the darkness to escape quickly, but pounced towards the position where the Druid originally stood.
I vowed to give him a fatal blow.
Even without the slightest sight, Espan was still aware of the approaching threat. Relying on the powerful perception brought by instinct, he accurately avoided the warg's blow and kicked him in the unsuspecting abdomen.
By the time the darkness faded away, the warg had been completely subdued by Aspen, his body was trampled under the feet of the druid, and he could only moan for mercy.
"You actually know how to attack in the dark. Although it is stupid to do so, you are still somewhat spiritual. At least you are not as stupid as those beasts." After the warg stopped resisting, Aspen finally moved his feet away and commented.
.
Following his line of sight, the warg also saw other beasts. Encased in the darkness, those beasts were either completely frightened and could only stand there. Even if the darkness ended, their eyes were still dull, or they were crazy.
Scurrying around like a bunch of headless flies.
The only one who can maintain absolute calmness in the darkness and use this to achieve his own goals and attack the Druid is the wolf in front of him. No wonder the Druid would comment like this.
"You can understand what I'm saying. If you can drive back those running beasts, maybe I will teach you some secret transformation techniques." Espan stroked his thick beard and said to the warg.
Although the warg was reluctant, due to the current situation, he could only obey the druid's order and ran wildly nearby, driving the animals that were frightened by the darkness back to the original clearing.
In the holy land of the forest, the darkness that swallowed up the light still exists, but it has changed its location. As the master of darkness, the Shadow Lady has arrived with a unique treasure.
The darkness of the Shadow Lady can not only block the line of sight, but also block the perception of those who fall into the darkness. Only in the face of incoming attacks, the instinctive perception will be effective, otherwise, whether it is using perception to detect, or
No other means can see through everything in the dark.
Relying on the powerful effects of the Shadow Realm, no one has been able to see through everything in the darkness for countless years, and no one even knows the true appearance of the Shadow Lady.
Under the guidance of the two heroes, Sally came to the Upper Council of Eli, which was a palace in a dense forest. After bringing the Shadow Lady here, the heroes did not enter together.
"Ms. Shadow, on behalf of the nature-loving Eri creatures, I would like to extend the highest respect to the Thieves Guild and thank you for everything you have done in the fight against the Elemental Lord."
Darkness shrouded, and even the Elf King lost his sight, but his face was calm and he did not show any discomfort.
"The action of the Elemental Lord to destroy the world is something that no one wants to see. Facing those ancient enemies, we creatures living in the main plane should naturally work together." Sally also said a few polite words.
The Elf King sighed: "The Water Elemental Monarch is making waves in the coastal areas. Her floods have submerged the earth and caused heavy casualties to the creatures in Eli. Even if our hero is holding a divine sword, there is nothing he can do about such an existence. As long as her true body is still alive.
In the ocean, no one can hurt her...and only the most precious water spirit ball has the ability to restrain her power."
Seeing that the Elf King finally got to the point, Sally in the darkness also smiled a little: "It's a coincidence that my men found the water spirit ball not long ago and dedicated it to me. The spirit ball is a priceless thing.
, not to mention that I can use it to restrain the elemental monarch, but in order to save this world, I am willing to take out the water spirit ball and make this deal."
The Elf King quickly nodded in approval, which was exactly the purpose of this meeting.
When he learned that the Shadow Lady was willing to trade the spirit balls, even the Elf King clapped his hands in excitement. The threat of the Elemental Lord was approaching, and this spirit ball trade was like a sleepy person meeting a pillow.
Even the Elf King, who is always calm and calm about changes, can't help but sigh in his heart. It seems that luck is always on the side of the creatures on the main plane. Those who try to destroy the main plane, even the elemental monarchs, will eventually
Ushering in the ending of failure.
In the darkness, the Elf King opened his eyes wide. Even if he couldn't see anything, he still looked in the direction of the sound. If he could see the Shadow Lady, he would definitely express his gratitude.
The creatures who knew the Thieves Guild in Eli claimed that the leader of the thieves was mysterious and dangerous. However, in the view of the Elf King, the shadow lady who came to trade the spirit balls at this time was simply enthusiastic and righteous, and he did not know what those rumors were.
Where did it come from?
If the Elf King could see through the darkness, he would be greatly surprised by the scene in the darkness.
In this deep darkness, there is not only the Shadow Lady, but also another man standing next to her, that man is the infamous Lord of the Undead, Rhodes.
It is a pity that under the pure darkness that blocks perception, no one can detect the existence of Rhodes. Even the Elf King not far away cannot detect it at all. The Necromancer, who is regarded as the enemy by the entire Elf Kingdom, just
Hidden beneath this deep darkness.
Rod didn't want to come here, but after Sally's persuasion, in order to ensure that there would be no accidents in this transaction, he finally came with her.
Although Rhodes believes that according to the habits of those elves, they will definitely be willing to carry out this transaction safely, but they are not afraid of ten thousand, just in case, if the group of fleeing mages secretly fan the flames, or are not willing to take out the fire spirit ball at all,
If you just want to be a white wolf with nothing, Rhodes can't just let it go.
Even for the Shadow Lady, it is not easy to escape safely under the siege of a group of top legends, not to mention that Eli's current strength is no longer the same. Not only has he obtained the Frozen Divine Sword from the depths of the ocean,
Among those mages, there are powerful demigods like Somra.
Under Sally's constant persuasion, Rhodes was also a little worried about her safety. If those Eli creatures insisted on dealing with her, she might not be able to escape safely.
Fortunately, after coming to Eli, Rhodes realized that his idea was wrong. After all, not all creatures can use conspiracy methods. At least among the Eli creatures, Rhodes did not see their hostility. Not only that, they
He showed great enthusiasm and respect for the shadow lady who came to trade.
On the contrary, Sally, relying on the cover of darkness and the fact that others could never see through her shadow realm, kept teasing Rhodes who came with her. When the water spirit ball was mentioned, she kept poking Rhodes with her fingers.<
/p>
Facing Sally's actions, Rhodes was a little helpless, but he couldn't stop him. He didn't want to expose himself.
However, Sally didn't restrain herself at all. Instead, she became even more aggressive. She even poked Rod's face with her fingers, denting the side of his face.
Looking at Rhodes with a helpless face, Sally couldn't hold back her smile. Who could normally see the eerie Lord of the Undead with such a look of hopelessness? This unique situation in front of her is also
Her exclusive one in the dark.
Listening to the shadow lady's laughter, the Elf King didn't know what was going on. He only thought that she was excited about the deal that was about to be concluded, and then a red orb appeared in his palm.
"Ms. Shadow, this is the fire spirit ball. Due to the power of the domain around you, we cannot see the situation in the domain clearly. Please also give us the water spirit ball. After we confirm that it is correct, we will give the fire spirit ball to you.
Up."
The Elf King said into the deep darkness, because the effect of the Shadow Realm is too overbearing, the Elf King did not dare to trade the Fire Spirit Orb rashly without confirming the true appearance of the Water Spirit Orb outside the realm.
"You want me to give you the water spirit ball first? If you plan to go back on your word and tear up this deal, what should I do?" Sally did not look sideways, but looked at Rhodes and said.
Rhodes didn't know what she was doing. This seemed to be different from the transaction process he had agreed on, so he could only use his eyes to signal to her, asking her to complete the transaction as soon as possible.
Listening to the doubts in Sally's mouth, the nearby elves suddenly couldn't sit still. In the darkness, a court mage spoke: "Ms. Shadow, are you saying that we will break our promise and not return the water spirit ball to you? You should
I believe in Eli's credibility and we will never do such a thing."
His words also aroused the echo of the nearby elves. If it were other people who dared to question the reputation of the Eli creature, they would have been denounced by them long ago. However, when facing the shadow lady who came to trade, they had no choice but to use
Have a good attitude.
The Elf King coughed. Hearing this cough, even in the deep darkness, the others stopped talking and listened to the Elf King's words: "Ms. Shadow, I can understand your worries. After all, the treasure
The stakes are so high that no one can trust others with this kind of thing, so how do you think we should proceed with the transaction?"
Listening to the Elf King's words, Sally smiled with good intentions. Under the cover of darkness, only Rhodes beside her could see this smile clearly. Rhodes didn't know what she was going to say, but his intuition told her
He must be up to no good.
"I can't close the Shadow Realm, and I can't hand over the Water Spirit Ball first. So I think that in order for the transaction to proceed, we might as well find a middleman to identify the treasure, so as to avoid mutual suspicion."
The Elf King nodded: "What you said makes sense. You are indeed the Shadow Lady who has run the Thieves Guild for many years. But who do you think is suitable to be the middleman?"
In the darkness, Sally raised Rhode's profile with her hand: "Since it is a transaction between us, the middleman must not be one of our subordinates. At the same time, he must be hostile to the Elemental Lord and cannot be someone from the elemental plane.
...In this case, I think Moriel, the hero of the snowy land, is more suitable, or it should be no problem to let the Lord of the Undead come."
Listening to Sally's words, Rhodes couldn't help but feel nervous. He didn't know what the devil's idea was, so he quickly grabbed Sally's cold hand and winked at her a few more times.
Seeing Rod's winking expression, Sally almost laughed happily. In the boundless darkness, she seemed relaxed and content, everything was under her control. In comparison, Rod seemed awkward and uneasy.
.
Seeing that Sally had made it clear that she was going to make fun of him in the dark, Rhodes could only roll his eyes in the end, with an expression that seemed to say that he would go back and deal with her after the deal was over.
Listening to Sally's half-true suggestion, a few drops of cold sweat flowed from the top of the Elf King's head: "Ms. Shadow... I don't think this is a good idea. If those evil people are used as middlemen, I'm afraid they will
If you steal the spirit ball directly, it is even less likely to be returned to us. If you insist on finding an intermediary, I suggest letting the angels of Erathia do it. At least they will not be greedy for the spirit ball."
"I'm just kidding. Your willingness to find an angel as an intermediary also shows that you don't intend to do anything."
In the darkness, the voice of the Shadow Lady came again, and the Elf King was slightly startled. Just as he was about to ask about the transaction, he felt a strong wind blowing towards him.
"Enemy attack!"
The nearby elf guards noticed immediately and blocked the hidden weapon thrown by the Shadow Lady. The entire palace was on alert. The palace mage's spells were ready to go. Many elf guards stood in front of the elf king to prevent him from encountering him.
What’s unexpected?
The commotion in the palace was so great that even the heroes waiting outside the darkness were aware of it. Jenny, holding the sword of ice, was about to enter the palace to provide support, but was stopped by the hero Gru on the side. p>
"Wait..."
At this moment, the Elf King's cry also caused the nearby guards to stop what they were doing. The Elf King's exclamation did not show the panic and helplessness when being attacked by the enemy, but instead revealed a bit of urgency and passion. "Where is the thing that the Shadow Lady just threw? Where did you throw it? Bring it to me quickly!"
Following the Elf King's words, the nearby guards reacted. After rummaging around in the darkness for a while, they finally touched the cold spherical object on the sunken ground.
The guard handed it to the Elf King. The Elf King carefully sensed the powerful water element contained in the ball, and his mood could no longer calm down. It is said that if the water spirit ball is placed on the ground, the water droplets secreted on the surface of the spirit ball will soften the land, making the land softer.
It is sinking from the land, and the thing in front of it is exactly like this.
The thing in his hand was clearly the treasure in the transaction, the water spirit ball that could be used to restrain the water elemental monarch. What the Elf King didn't expect was that after confirming the situation, the Shadow Lady didn't hesitate at all.
Throwing the water spirit ball over, it even caused the guards to become agitated and almost treated her behavior as an enemy attack.
If it really turns out to be like that, the Elf King will definitely not be able to forgive himself for treating the allies who intend to deal with the Elemental Lord as enemies.
Fortunately, the situation was under control and the conflict did not escalate further. Unknowingly, the Elf King was sweating profusely, and the Shadow Lady was indeed mysterious and unpredictable.
He wiped the sweat from his head and confirmed that the water spirit ball was correct. The Elf King no longer waited and handed the fire spirit ball into her hands, completing this unique spirit ball transaction.
