The letter handed to Sherlock by the captain of the Central Guard was found in the principal's office. Because Professor Bacon was mentioned in it, Sherlock was allowed to take a look. However, this does not mean that the letter was handed over to Sherlock.
Locke, because these will be used as evidence to convict the principal of Lich Academy.
Sherlock briefly read it. The principal's letter seemed to be sent by his thugs. It mainly stated that they had found Professor Bacon and killed him, but his disciple, the top student, followed Professor Bacon all the way.
The clues left behind entered the illusion left by Professor Bacon in advance, and discovered the secret of the Academy of the Dead. Fortunately, they caught the top student.
The last letter mentioned something about Sherlock. People in the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon were tracking down the news. Sherlock found the illusion. They pretended to be black dragon Goudan. Under the strict protection of Sherlock's two bodyguards,
The magic seal was destroyed, but it still failed to prevent Sherlock from coming out of the illusion. Sherlock was an obstacle to their plan, and they planned to kill Sherlock next!
The letter ends here.
As for whether the top student died or where he was, there was no mention in the letter.
Sherlock read the letters and then handed all the letters to the captain of the Central Guard.
"It's really an evil plan. Those guys did so many irredeemable things in order to resurrect Plumeria."
Sherlock sighed and said this.
"But don't worry, Lord Sherlock. Our Central Guard will definitely stop these evil guys. We will also send a message to the Demon Council to ask them to strengthen the prison facilities that seal the ancient gods in the near future. No matter what, those ancient gods
Even gods can’t escape!”
"As for whether there is really a magic circle that seals the plumeria below the Academy of the Undead, we will not know until our expert team arrives to study it."
After the captain of the Central Guards finished speaking, he greeted his team members, took the dean of the Academy of the Dead with him, and left the Academy of the Undead.
"Pap-pap-pap-pap"
The beetle beast holding the dean of the Academy of the Undead was moving further and further away, but he could still hear the evil cry of the dean of the Academy of the Undead:
"I'm innocent! I didn't want to release Plumeria—!"
The Lich Academy students who were watching behind Sherlock were also deeply shocked by this scene. They had never thought that the principal who was once ignorant and indifferent could actually plan such an evil plan, and they were all very excited.
Can you not be excited? The legendary conspiracies and characters are so close to them. The place where they study and live every day is actually linked to the ancient gods. It is really shocking.
"Lord Sherlock, I really didn't expect that something like this would happen in our college... Professor Bacon..."
Professor Baicai lowered his head in despair.
"It doesn't matter. Professor Bacon and I don't have a very good relationship."
Sherlock waved his hand and said comfortingly.
"ah?"
"But let's put the matter of Professor Bacon aside for now. The first goal now is to find the top student. I hope he is okay."
Sherlock sighed. Professor Baicai did not expect that Sherlock was not sad at all about Professor Bacon's death, but she still said quickly:
"I understand, our Academy of the Dead will cooperate with you, Lord Sherlock."
"Then please."
Sherlock nodded to Professor Cabbage and said.
————————
Dim lights were embedded on both sides of the narrow corridor, and footsteps echoed on the walls.
At the end of the corridor is a huge and damp room, which is a prison cell.
Two skeleton lichs were imprisoned here. One was already lying on the ground, unconscious, and the other was weakly leaning on the iron railing, with his eyes half open, looking extremely weak.
One is Professor Bacon who collapsed on the ground, and the other is a weak academic master.
Both lichs wear special shackles on their bodies, which can prevent the wearer from using any magic power.
A lich that cannot use magic is no different from an ordinary skeleton.
At the only entrance to the room, a dark figure stood there.
"You are so tenacious. You are worthy of being a once-in-a-thousand-year genius. But you won't be able to hold on much longer. Your strength will soon be sucked dry by the great Plumeria. You will serve as a stepping stone on the road to Plumeria's resurrection."
The dark figure walked up to the top student and said in a sinister tone.
"You will not succeed... Lord Sherlock... will stop you..."
The top student said word by word. He raised one hand and grabbed the iron railing on the side, struggling to stand up, but in the end he couldn't stand up.
"Lord Sherlock? The Lord Sherlock you trust will soon become the stepping stone for Lord Plumeria's resurrection!"
The black shadow said sadly.
"Even if Lord Sherlock is dead, there is still Winterfell, the Merchant Alliance, and the Demon Council..."
"They are all stepping stones too!"
"There are also seven demon kings."
“They are all stepping stones!”
"besides……"
The top student planned to continue talking back, but the black shadow interrupted the top student with a loud roar:
"That's enough! There's not much left! No one can stop me!"
But as soon as the black figure finished speaking, a voice came from the roof of the room:
"No, there is me, the Lord of Darkness, the Lord of Demonic Flames, the Lord of the Eternal Kingdom, Goudan! I can stop you!"
Along with a high-pitched sound, a black ball fell from the ground. There was a pair of small wings on both sides of the body of the ball. It was flapping hard. It could be seen that the wings were working very hard, but in contrast
When he got up, his body was still a little helpless. When he fell to the ground, he made an embarrassing "bang" sound.
Black Dragon Goudan sat on the ground.
"What?!"
The black figure who had been speaking in a sinister manner obviously did not expect that a black dragon would appear here. The black figure suddenly rushed towards the black dragon Goudan who was lying on the ground, and the gray magic power gathered on the black figure's body.
The next second, countless bone spurs burst out of the ground, like sharp spears piercing Heilong Goudan's body, but there was no blood, but instead clouds of black mist spread from Heilong Goudan's body.
Come.
The mist quickly gathered together and formed a huge dragon head, staring angrily at the black shadow.
The black shadow did not expect such a situation to occur. The black shadow took two steps back, and from the prison railings, another person's voice came:
"I'm sorry, what you have in front of you is not a dog egg, but a disembodied pineapple. That's right, it's the pineapple that escaped from Bankazia and is one of the seventy-two great demons of Rokilankaimi. Isn't it?
Very surprised."
The person who spoke came out, it was none other than Sherlock.
Next to Sherlock were the parrot Phoenix and the black dragon Goudan.
"I'm sorry, I played a trick on you once. Who told you to arrange for someone to play a trick on me once in the illusion before? I'm a very vindictive person, so I'll pay you back."
"Sherlock..."
The dark figure saw Sherlock in front of him and showed an expression of disbelief.
"Sorry, I scared you."
Sherlock raised his hand and gestured:
"Professor Baicai, to be honest, I really didn't expect it to be you at first."
As Sherlock spoke, the dark shadow stepped into the light step by step. Looking at the texture of the bones, the outline, and the clothes he was wearing, it was easy to identify that this was Professor Baicai!
"Can you tell me how you discovered me? I've obviously done it so secretly."
Professor Baicai lowered her head slightly and looked on guard. Her hands were filled with two clouds of gray mist.
"Sorry, no, because I am a non-explanatory person."
Sherlock raised his hand, and the parrot on his shoulder had already flown out. Red flames burst out from the parrot's body. The flames burned his feathers and burned him into a ball of fire. He was almost wrapped in the fireball.
In the blink of an eye, the fireball that was originally the size of a parrot surged up, a fire phoenix rose into the sky, its huge wings spread out in the room, and even the temperature suddenly rose.
The flaming phoenix swooped towards Professor Cabbage and the pineapple that turned into a dragon head, and the flames swallowed them up instantly.
"It's time for me, the Lord of Darkness, the Lord of Demonic Flames, to appear!"
Black Dragon Goudan eagerly walked up and let out a ferocious "oow", then moved his fat body, flapped his wings and wanted to take off on the spot, but after several consecutive efforts, he always ended up with the same result.
Ended in failure.
But basically there is no need for dog eggs. When the Fire Phoenix swooped down, it transformed into a parrot again and stood on Sherlock's shoulder. Where Professor Baicai originally stood, there was only a ball of flame left.
.
"The lich is really weak and cannot be beaten."
Parrot Phoenix blew his feathers, and the last handful of flames on them were extinguished in one breath.
Black mist overflowed from the flames, and then turned into a black cat again, returning to Sherlock's feet. The black cat's hair seemed to have been burned by high temperature, slightly curled, and gave off a smell of burned protein. Black Cat Pineapple
Angrily yelled at Phoenix:
"What are you doing? Kill your teammates too?"
Sherlock ignored the quarrel between the two of them, but looked at his feet. A large magic circle appeared under Sherlock's feet and spread to the entire room, but as far as the magic circle in the room was concerned
, not all, but only a small part.
A rough estimate shows that the area of this magic circle is definitely not small.
Professor Cabbage, who was set on fire by Phoenix, had stopped burning at this time, leaving only a black and charred patch of land.
"Burned to death?"
The black cat Pineapple looked at the black burnt pieces and asked doubtfully.
Just as Pineapple finished speaking, the whole room suddenly started shaking, the ground in the entire room turned into a swamp-like state, and Sherlock's legs began to sink a little bit.
"Meow!"
The black cat Pineapple suddenly jumped up and grabbed Sherlock's trouser leg, while on the other side, the dog's balls were already halfway in.
Although he tried hard to flap his wings, he couldn't fly.
Sherlock reached out and grabbed Goudan's wings and pulled him up. The bat wings behind him flapped, quickly pulling both Black Cat and Goudan off the ground.
In the prison, Professor Bacon and the top student had sunk deeply into the ground, and the black mud completely enveloped them.
Just when Sherlock was about to go down to rescue Bacon and the top student, a lot of liquid suddenly dripped from the ceiling, which looked like saliva-like mucus.
Sherlock raised his head and found that the ceiling had turned into black mud like the ground, and liquid was constantly seeping from it.
It felt like the whole room had turned into the stomach of some kind of creature.
The liquid dripped onto Sherlock's bat wings and quickly corroded his bat wings. The originally intact bat wings began to be corroded with small holes.
Sherlock did not hesitate, took out a scroll in his arms, and tore it into pieces. The magic circle that transmitted the scroll instantly appeared in front of Sherlock, and then disappeared together with Sherlock and his three little animals.
In place.
As the white light flashed past, Sherlock, Goudan, Phoenix and Pineapple all appeared in front of the Lord's Hall in the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon.
The surrounding players were startled by the sudden teleportation of Sherlock, not to mention that Sherlock's whole body seemed to be corroded and steaming, as well as his bat wings with holes in them.
This is a big plot!
Players kept gathering around, seeming to want to figure out what was going on, but before Sherlock could speak, the players who were near the portal hall and were about to enter the dungeon suddenly shouted:
"Wocao! What's going on! Why can't we go to the Academy of the Dead?"
"Is it a stuck bug?"
"I can't get in either!"
"No one in the server can go to the Academy of the Dead now!"
"Wocao, what about the players who have passed?"
"I don't know. I'll ask on the forum."
Sherlock looked at the commotion in the portal hall, then stood there and thought for a moment, then shouted to the players around him:
"Everyone gathers! Get ready for a big fight! My people!"
………………
At this moment in the Academy of the Undead, the Lich students who are studying normally have not yet reacted to the shock of the principal being taken away. They are all still chatting and discussing the grand occasion of the principal being taken away.
.
But when they didn't pay attention, the ground below the Academy of the Undead began to flicker with a faint light. Soon, a slight tremor spread throughout the Academy of the Undead. Some students asked in confusion:
"earthquake?"
"I don't know, maybe it was an earthquake?"
"Has there been an earthquake in the Academy of the Dead?"
Before those students could figure out what was going on, a voice that made the soul tremble came from below the Academy of the Dead:
"Who dares to call me... I am Plumeria!"
————————
When the Victorians unexpectedly received the mission to defeat the flying dragon, the people in the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon had also received a new major plot mission.
Lord Sherlock is back injured!
Not only that, but the portal to the Academy of the Undead is closed, and players can no longer go to the Academy of the Undead from the Eternal Kingdom dungeon.
And these are not the point. The real point is what Sherlock announced next:
"Warriors! The ancient Abyss Legion is ready to move! The Academy of the Undead they occupy has accumulated enough power and plans to attack the entire world! But before that, I need to tell you that Pei Mannolos Gen and their new
There was a terrible conflict with Commander Bai Cai, and Bai Cai killed Pei Mannoroth Gen! Fortunately, I kept his other side of the soul, but Bai Cai imprisoned him, and your Lich Commander
Official, top student! And now, Baicai is about to release the legendary commander of the Ancient God Legion, Frangipani..."
"Now, it's time to fight back! Let us march to the entire Academy of the Undead!"
That's it.
"Wocao, it's really a random plot. I told you that we were asked to find people everywhere to have adventures. Is it just for this plot?"
Burning Chest Hair said with an unhappy expression.
"I guess that's it. Wasn't the store where we found the adventure mission burned down? This is probably the plot that will follow."
Chuhe nodded in agreement.
"Stop talking, hurry up and gather at the portal, Lao Xia is about to open the door!"
Sylvanas said.
At this moment, players in the Eternal Kingdom dungeon were gathering near the portal hall, where Lord Sherlock was opening a new portal.
The transfer address is - the main entrance of the Academy of the Dead.
That was the rune magic circle for teleportation that had been set up outside the Academy of the Dead when Sherlock went to it.
Use it now.
Sherlock stood in front of the rune magic array, constantly inputting magic power, while the players were gearing up one by one, and some were pushing war ballistas, etc. It was obvious that they were ready to conquer the entire undead.
College.
The players did not wait too long for the event. Sherlock had already opened a new portal. He stood in front of the portal and shouted to the players:
"Warriors of the Eternal Kingdom! The entire underground world is in danger. We must not let the abyssal army gathered in the Academy of the Undead rush out of the Academy of the Undead. We must block it here! You may lose your precious lives, but all this is for the sake of the underground.
World! Go! Warriors!"
Following Sherlock's speech, the players' blood boiled:
"For the eternal kingdom!"
"For Lao Xia!"
"For Pe Mannoroth Root!"
“For the plumeria!”
"waaaah——!"
Arthur also shouted and rushed into the flashing portal, and behind the portal, the entire Academy of the Undead was displayed in front of the players for the first time.
It was a hell-like scene.
