In the canyon, everyone walked forward for more than 20 meters, and encountered a new sneak attack.
This time, two hidden arrows were shot, one from the left and the other from the right. Yake immediately raised his shield to block, blocking the cold arrow on the left. Lucy on Link's right drew out her sword sharply, and slashed forward with the sword. In an instant, the light of the sword was like water, and the edge of the sword slashed out a gust of fog visible to the naked eye, blowing the arrow away.
This sword startled both Anderson and Yaksa, and they all looked at Lucy.
Lucy had already put away the Gale Sword, with a cold expression, and the two of them could only hold back their curiosity, but the appearance of this beautiful and cool magic sword was deeply imprinted in their hearts.
Seeing that Gridan was about to fight back instinctively, Link immediately said, "Keep alive, don't shoot them all!"
In this way, after Gridan shot a deadly arrow, the other arrow was slightly deflected, only to hear two screams of "uh" and "ah", one figure fell directly from the cliff, and the other He also fell down, but he was obviously still conscious. When he fell, he swung his arms wildly and pulled a few times on the cliff, which greatly slowed down the falling speed.
'Bang' the man fell to the ground, moaning, not dead yet.
"Go, go and find out." Link strode forward, and everyone followed.
During this period of time, the dead thief came back to life again. Like the previous guy, he got up and walked towards the depths of the canyon. This time, he was so close that everyone could clearly see the ghost of the thief.
Not to mention the twisted body of this guy, the most permeating thing is his expression, the pupils of his eyes are dilated, and a mixture of blood and saliva is flowing from his mouth uncontrollably. When he walks around, the broken bones in his body make creaking noises , Listening to it makes people feel chills on the back.
"My Lord of Radiance, the Syndicate is too evil!" Anderson murmured in a low voice. Such an organization is truly terrifying. If he is lucky enough to return alive this time, he must report what he saw and heard today to the church.
This evil organization must be purified most thoroughly!
Link ignored the undead, walked to the living thief, pointed his wand at him, and the flame spar on the tip of the wand emitted a fiery red flame. Under Link's deliberate control, the flame spread like a spider web The dying thief loomed.
Although the flame was harmless, its appearance was extremely frightening, and it was the best way to frighten ordinary people. Link saw the horror and fear on the thief's face as expected.
"Now, you have two options. One, answer my question. Two, keep silent, and then your soul will be completely purified by my flame!" Link sneered and threatened.
Before he finished speaking, the thief was frightened and collapsed, and said in horror: "I choose the first one, choose the first one!"
"Very good, you are very smart." Link's expression softened slightly, and then he asked, "What's going on in this canyon? Why is it so dark?"
"Because a magician set up a magic circle in the valley, and the leader of Ender said that it can scare away the enemies of the organization." The thief replied hastily.
"Magic circle? Where is it?"
"It's in the cave hall, 30 meters ahead, and you'll be there after turning a corner."
"Second question, why do people come back to life after death? Where did they go?" Link asked again. Perhaps because of harmony, this weird scene did not appear in the syndicate lair in the previous game, so Link didn't know what would happen ahead.
However, Link is now confident in his own strength. He has a matchstick, and his mana is basically full. He has two level 4 fighters, three level 3 professionals, and a large bundle of scrolls. , should be enough for the unexpected.
Unexpectedly, after this question was asked, the thief shook his head frantically: "No, I can't say it, otherwise I will be punished by the master, don't force me...don't force me!"
Link frowned, and the flame on the flint became brighter and brighter: "Do you want to taste the pain of the flame burning your soul?"
"Ah, I can't say... I can't say... ah~~ah~" The thief didn't know what he did, his voice became lower and lower, and finally, his pupils dilated, and he died.
Yake stepped forward, checked the thief's body, then turned to Link and said, "My lord, he seems to have been frightened to death."
Scared to death? Link didn't believe it. After a careful inspection with the aura detection technique, he saw a solid black air fading away from the thief's head. This black air was different from the atmosphere in the canyon, and appeared more intense and spiritual.
Seeing this situation, Link already knew it in his mind: "No, it's not scared to death, it's a curse magic. He can't reveal anything about the resurrection of the dead, otherwise the curse will be triggered."
Everyone who heard this was terrified. Any normal person would feel chills in the heart of such a secretive and evil method.
Seeing the terrified faces of everyone around him, Link explained again: "You don't have to worry, the release process of this curse is very complicated, it needs the oath of the subject as the guide of the curse, it cannot be imposed on us out of thin air .”
These are all insights into magic. Link has read so many magic books, and his magic skills are extremely solid. He can see through this black magic method at a glance.
When he said that, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Link, what about now?" Militia Captain Jacques asked. Among these fighters, he was the least experienced and the least courageous. This place was too scary. He couldn't hold on anymore and wanted to quit.
At this time, the corpse of the thief came back to life again. Link took a step back, and when the corpse walked five or six meters away, he waved his hand: "Go, follow, let's see where he went."
Oh my god, the scalps of everyone around were blown away. Even the kingdom knight Anderson, who had seen the big scene, was covered in cold sweat. However, in the end, he still followed in Link's footsteps.
So, in the canyon, a rickety corpse led the way, followed by an extremely calm young magician and several frightened warriors who gulped their saliva, all the way to the depths of the canyon.
As expected, the thief did not lie. After the crowd followed for more than 30 meters, a corner appeared in front of them, and there was another sneak attack behind the corner. However, everyone was extremely vigilant. He was killed without breaking the waves.
After the two thieves were killed, they quickly stood up, followed the previous thieves, and walked forward one after the other. In front of the three strange corpses was a cave.
A burning torch was inserted on the edge of the cave, and the dim light of the fire swayed the light and shadows shining in the cave. Those swaying shadows seemed to be like ghosts, making people frightened.
Seeing that the three undead had entered the cave and were about to disappear around the corner behind the cave, Link took a few steps, raised his wand, and whispered, "Light!"
A stable and bright light group appeared at the tip of the staff, which greatly dispelled the darkness in the cave, and also inspired the courage of several soldiers.
"Follow up. Yake, stay vigilant." Link waved his hands to the soldiers behind him, and then whispered to Yake who raised his shield in front of him.
"Well." Yake nodded, and raised the shield in his hand a little higher, and the magic shimmer from the shield strengthened his courage.
A group of people walked into the cave cautiously.
It can be seen that this cave has been carefully excavated. The cave wall is smooth and dry. There is a torch every other section of the road. From time to time, an alcove can be seen on the side of the road. There are tables and chairs in the room. Judging by the cups and food scraps, there were robbers resting here not long ago.
But now, Link and the others went all the way in, and there was no sign of a robber. They only saw a few ghostly corpses in front of them walking towards the depths of the cave.
Just like that, they walked more than 50 meters in the winding cave, and a round hall appeared in front of them. The light in the hall was very dim. On the ground in the center, there was a magic circle emitting dim purple light!
Link squinted his eyes for a while, and found that he didn't even know a single rune. He felt the dark aura constantly emanating from the magic circle. If he contacted the previous thieves, he knew that this was the cursed magic circle.
Secretly remembering the rune magic circle on the ground, he waved his hand and said, "Back back, back into the passage, I will destroy it!"
It is very simple to destroy a magic circle, just destroy its runes, but if the runes are destroyed, the magic circle will be out of balance, and the various energies in the magic circle may explode, so there is a certain degree of danger.
Link himself followed the crowd back into the cave, and didn't stop until he turned a corner. Then, he pointed forward with his wand, and in an instant, three glass beads, according to the position of the magic circle rune in his memory, he controlled the glass beads to fly away. go out.
There were three explosive bangs of 'bang bang bang', followed by an echo in the cave, and after a while, a loud bang of 'boom' was heard, and then there was a dark breath rushing wildly along the cave passage like a tide.
Although this is not magic, the dark aura is the mortal enemy of life. If a person's body is washed by this aura, he will be seriously injured even if he is not dead.
Link had already prepared for this. After the glass beads erupted, he triggered the prepared magic scroll, which was a level 1 magic secondary guardian barrier.
The white light kept flashing, and the scrolls failed one by one. In an instant, Link triggered 6 scrolls, and blessed each of them with a guardian magic. Almost at the moment he just finished, a dark aura surged over. This aura collided with the magic on everyone, and the brilliance of the magic kept flickering. After three seconds, the magic collapsed, and the dark aura basically subsided.
Strange to say, after the dark tide rushed through, although the whole cave was still dark, the gloomy and cold feeling before disappeared immediately, and all the inexplicable voices in my head disappeared.
The curse is gone.
Everyone took a long breath and felt much more relaxed. Anyone who walks in this ghostly place with all kinds of devilish whispers in his head will definitely breed all kinds of negative emotions.
"My lord, what should we do now?" Jacques asked.
Link thought for a while and said, "The curse is gone, let's go back first, gather the militia and come back to investigate the cave."
There are more than 100 militiamen, which is a powerful force. They were blocked by the cursed magic circle before, and they couldn't play a role, but now they are fine.
This is also the safest method.
Everyone nodded and walked along the same path, preparing to exit the cave.
Then, something went wrong.
"Hey, why is there still a passage in front? I remember that this is obviously an exit." Yake screamed.
The faces of the others also changed.
This cave passage is very short, and there is only one road, it is absolutely impossible to go the wrong way, but now, the situation ahead completely subverts everyone's imagination.
Link frowned slightly. He tried to throw a glass bead onto the wall of the passage ahead. With a 'bang' sound, the glass bead exploded and stone chips flew. This shows that the passage ahead is not an illusion, but a real existence.
But why is there such a weird situation like a ghost hitting a wall? He had never encountered such a situation in the previous game, and Link couldn't figure out what was going on for a while.
"Don't panic, keep going!" He forced himself to calm down, he knew that he was the backbone of the team, and the others could be afraid, but he was the only one who couldn't mess up.
