Although Basel has been working as a librarian in Doland's library, he has a very high prestige in the hearts of the magicians in Qingfeng Plain. Many magicians who have received his guidance regard him as
His teacher Basel joined the Tower of Twilight, which was great news for Lin Li and the magicians of the Tower of Twilight.
A few days after Basel came back, Lin Li received a letter from Hoffman. The letter said that the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce had made preparations and that the exploration team had set off from La Faria City. The letter agreed to go to Gard
The rendezvous point is near the Gas Grand Canyon, so there is no need to bring people to the Tower of Dusk to rendezvous in La Faria City.
Regarding the composition of the team that will explore the ruins this time, considering that this exploration may be the ruins of the high elf royal family, Lin Li did not take the strength of the team lightly. The first is the two legendary undead servants Nofil and Wu Yi.
Falusi, then Conneris, who has a perfect body, and Angelano, who has the Alchemy Colossus, plus Basel, who has just returned, and Elan, who has just stepped into the legend, and a mage composed of hundreds of great magicians.
Regiment. This time, Lin Li said that it was almost a full-scale dispatch. Anyway, he brought all the legendary-level combat power with him.
As for the safety of the Tower of Twilight, Lin Li is not worried. As Ember Warlock said, almost no one in the Qingfeng Plain dares to blatantly touch the Tower of Twilight, so there is almost no need to leave too much behind.
Moreover, even if someone has the idea of Twilight Tower, there is a magic crystal cannon in the Twilight Tower, a ten-directional killing array, and a powerful Eternal Furnace on the top of the tower. As long as the opponent is not strong in the Holy Domain,
Otherwise, no matter how hard he comes, he will never come back.
The exploration team of the Tower of Twilight set out for the Gargas Grand Canyon. Along the way, those forces who paid attention to the Tower of Twilight were frightened. Especially those who had offended the Tower of Twilight were frightened to death.
Everyone thought that this was coming to settle accounts. After receiving the news, the five major families of the Mithril Alliance were on full alert. The headquarters of each family were in a state of panic, and they even began to prepare for the aftermath.
On the way.
Yes, Ash Warlock has said that no one is allowed to break the existing peace, but who gets the score? Judging from the gathering in Gran Town, it is obvious that Ash Warlock values the president of the Tower of Twilight.
Perhaps some agreement had been reached during the secret conversation in the Tower of Ashes.
However, what those forces thought and did was not of Lin Li's concern. The exploration team headed all the way back and soon arrived at the northern border of Qingfeng Plain, then entered Rockdammer and headed towards the location agreed with Hoffman.
A few days later, the team from the Tower of Dusk arrived near the Gargas Grand Canyon and met up with the team from the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce who had set up camp here.
After receiving the news, Hoffman brought several senior officials from the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce to welcome out of the camp. After meeting Lin Li and others, Hoffman saw Basel next to Lin Li at a glance, and was immediately startled. Although Basel
He has been living a life of seclusion in Doland's library, but with his prestige among magicians, how could he not recognize him as the president of the Golden Gold Chamber of Commerce?
Hoffman didn't bother to say hello to Lin Li, but asked Basel in surprise: "Master Basel, what are you..."
Basel smiled and said, "I have joined the Tower of Dusk now."
Hearing this answer, Hoffman was even more shocked, and turned to Lin Li with a question.
Lin Li had already expected Hoffman's surprise, so he explained: "Master Basel has agreed to serve as the referee of the Twilight Tower, but for this exploration operation, the inauguration ceremony has not been held yet."
In the Magic Guild, the chief referee is an extremely important position, and the power of this position is not even under that of the guild president. Any matter related to the safety of the guild, the chief referee has full authority to handle, and sometimes he can even override the authority of the guild president.
It is no exaggeration to say that the chief referee is equivalent to another guild president to a certain extent. Therefore, unlike other members who join the guild, the chief referee also requires a very formal installation ceremony.
Lin Li asked the team to set up camp nearby, and then took Basel and others into the camp of the Golden Gold Chamber of Commerce at the invitation of Hoffman. The strength of the Golden Gold Chamber of Commerce was not small this time, with the legendary mage Thomas and Sword Master Jie
Reni, the legendary mage Alvin, and the twin legendary assassins Gia and Shock. In addition to these major shareholders, almost half of the mage group of the Golden Gold Chamber of Commerce has come, and there are probably more than a hundred great magicians.
Soldiers. In addition, there are a hundred warriors above level 15, who are all elites in the Skyfire Knights. However, due to the environment here, they did not bring their horses.
The top leaders of both sides sat down in the tent of the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce. Hoffman took out a map, which was exactly the map of Gargas Canyon, but the drawing on it was incomplete. It should obviously be the previous exploration team.
drawn.
However, not long after everyone was discussing the exploration plan in the tent, suddenly there was a loud noise from the camp outside, and then a soldier broke into the tent and said: "Master President, a large number of undead creatures have appeared outside the camp."
Everyone couldn't help but be surprised. It was still daytime outside at this time, and generally low-level undead creatures could not move under the sun. The appearance of a large number of undead creatures at this time was a bit weird no matter how you think about it.
Sunlight is natural holy light. Although it usually does not have a strong purification power due to the dispersion of power, it is also quite deadly to low-level undead creatures. Even in the Valley of Shadows and the Mark of Death, a place where undead gather, there is death.
The thick fog blocks the sun for them, and the low-level undead will sleep quietly underground during the day.
It is still a sunny day in the Gargas Grand Canyon, and the sunlight is particularly dazzling under the reflection of the ice and snow, giving people a stronger illusion than usual. But in such an environment, when I came to the forest outside the camp
, Hoffman and others saw that a thousand or two kilometers away from the camp, densely packed undead creatures were coming like a white tide.
Seeing the undead creatures rushing towards the camp, Lin Li and others couldn't help being stunned. These undead creatures were a little different from what they had seen before. It's no wonder that after discovering these undead creatures, the camp suddenly became noisy.
The types of undead creatures can be seen at first sight. The ones rushing at the forefront are still the eternal cannon fodder skeleton warriors among the undead creatures. However, these skeleton warriors are covered with crystal clear ice.
It was as if it were covered with crystal armor, sparkling in the sunlight. The originally thin bones of the body, wrapped in the ice armor, also appeared much stronger, and even a little more powerful.
Another thing that caught the attention of Lin Li and others is that the types of these skeleton warriors are also very mixed. Not all of them are made of human skeletons. Some of them are shorter but with stronger bones, which should be the skeletons of dwarves, and some of the skeletons have the tops of their heads.
Having horns or baring fangs is obviously related to orcs. Behind these human, dwarf, and orc skeleton warriors, there are some giant skeletons with a height of more than four meters, which are actually the skeletons of giants that are said to have the blood of Titans.
"It is said that this place was once a battlefield where various races fought. It seems to be true." Looking at the undead creatures getting closer and closer, Hoffman said to himself.
The Gargas Grand Canyon is known as an insurmountable chasm, but it stretches for thousands of miles and does not divide the entire continent into two halves. Although the meeting point of the teams from the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce and the Dusk Tower is not at the end of the Grand Canyon, it is just a short distance away.
About a hundred miles away, the terrain here is relatively easy to enter the canyon. It is said that it was here that in history, in order to resist the rule of the high elves, the resistance alliances of several major races fought several battles with the armies of the high elves.
Perhaps at that time, the Resistance Alliance also wanted to take advantage of the cold environment here, hoping to have some impact on the high elves, but it turned out that the high elves just didn't like the cold. As for the outcome of the war, you can imagine, it is said that under the pure white ice and snow here
, buried the lives of hundreds of thousands of rebels, including many powerful men of various ethnic groups who were famous at the time.
However, due to the harsh environment here, which is cold and dry, and does not have a strong rancid smell like Shadow Valley and the Mark of Death, plus the gloomy atmosphere permeating the Grand Canyon is extremely strong, Lin Li and others did not feel anything special after arriving here.
They had to notice the aura of death under the cover. Only then did everyone remember the legend about this place when they saw the undead creatures wearing ice armor.
Although those undead creatures have weird shapes and are all wrapped in armor-like ice, after all, they are just some low-level skeleton warriors and hell bones. For this exploration team composed of three to four hundred strong men above level 15,
That said, it does not pose any substantial threat.
After the undead creatures entered the shooting range, the great magicians who had been prepared raised their staffs one after another. Suddenly, pieces of magic light shone, and the magic elements in the space seemed to encounter the oil of Mars.
It broke out instantly. Although there were less than a hundred great magicians who launched the magic attack, the magic storm formed by various magics was quite astonishing, sweeping towards the undead creatures like a storm.
For a moment, ice and bone fragments were flying all over the sky, and the rising fog almost completely covered the area. When the thick fog dissipated and everything became calm, the menacing undead army had completely emerged from outside the camp.
Disappeared, leaving only stumps and broken arms all over the place. At the exploration team's camp, some magicians from the Tower of Dusk continued to build their own camp, as if nothing had happened just now.
Although those undead creatures were a bit weird, their strength was not much stronger than normal. Lin Li shook his head slightly and did not take this matter to heart. However, when Lin Li turned around, he was about to return to the tent of the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce with everyone.
While continuing to discuss the exploration plan, they saw that Uyfalusi and Nofeile behind them looked a little strange.
Seeing the two of them staring at the direction of the undead army, like people who have been hungry for many days seeing a table of sumptuous food, Lin Li suddenly understood and said with a smile: "You two don't have to follow me, you can do whatever you want.
Let’s do it.” After saying that, he followed Hoffman and others back to the tent.
After hearing Lin Li's instructions, Uyfalusi and Nofeile looked happy and walked out of the camp together not far away. They each chanted a brief spell in the direction where the undead army was destroyed. After the spell was finished, they saw
The place that had returned to peace suddenly flashed with countless light spots, like a swarm of fireflies, swarming towards the two of them.
These are the soul fires of the group of undead creatures just now. Unfortunately, many of them have been completely extinguished under the erosion of the magic storm, and the rest are all in such a broken appearance. Compared with the complete soul fire
It was much worse. After absorbing these soul fires, Nofeile and Uyfalusi looked at each other with unfinished expressions, and returned to the tent of the Glitter Gold Chamber of Commerce amid the strange looks of everyone around them, but did not go in.
Instead, he waited outside.
In the tent, Lin Li, Hoffman and others talked for a while about the undead creatures, but they had no clue, so they continued to discuss the plan to explore the ruins. However, not long after everyone started talking again, there was another sound coming from outside.
There was an explosion of magic, and then someone came in to report that another group of undead creatures had attacked the camp. But this time, everyone knew the strength of those weird undead creatures, and did not show any fuss until the undead creatures came to the camp.
After the group of undead creatures were eliminated, someone was sent to report to everyone.
"It's strange, what happened to these undead creatures? Even if the camp has the breath of the living, it doesn't make them afraid of the sun." After hearing the report from his men, Hoffman couldn't help but frowned and muttered.
"Master Hoffman, didn't the exploration team you sent before discover that there are a large number of undead creatures here?" Lin Li asked strangely. Hoffman once said that he had sent an exploration team of fifty people before.
team to confirm the authenticity of the clue, but only two people returned alive. Didn't their report mention undead creatures?
Hoffman shook his head, pointed to a point on the map, and said to Lin Li and others: "The exploration team entered from the beginning of the canyon more than a hundred miles away, and only encountered sporadic undead creatures along the way.
, I have never encountered such a large group of undead creatures, so I did not include this information as a key note."
"Then why didn't we meet at the beginning of the canyon they walked and chose this location?" Lin Li then asked. Since there were exploration teams in front of them, theoretically speaking, if we enter according to the explored route,
It's obviously much simpler. This is also a question that Lin Li has been wondering about since he was notified of the rendezvous location.
