After the temple scandal, the Oracle City was suddenly quiet for a few days. w w w. q u a n b e n. c o mAll the elves are secretly rumoring that the angel is testing a new terrifying magic in order to save the city of Oracle.
Adjani is living like a new year now. She was waiting for Rogge to appear every day, but Rogge had been shutting himself in the lowest level of the temple, seeing no one, and just kept doing magic experiments. She wandered at the door of the water prison several times, sensing the strong and weak magic fluctuations inside, and her heart became heavier and heavier.
Elder Hughes moved a complete set of tables, chairs and benches, brought wine bottles and side dishes, and happily stood guard at the door of the water prison every day. When I'm drunk, I'll lie down on the table and take a nap.
Every time Adjani came over, Hughes would force her to have a few drinks and a meal. Elder Hughes is highly respected, and Ajani will not disobey him.
On this day, she couldn't help but go to see if Rogge had come out. As always, he was caught by Hughes and drank several glasses of wine, which made her pale golden cheeks show an attractive bright red color.
"Adjani! You've been very worried recently! Are you afraid that something will happen to Rogge? Don't worry, he will be fine. This kid can survive even after death, so what are you afraid of?" Hughes The state of drunkenness can be quite authentic.
"Elder Hughes..." Adjani wanted to say something, but she hesitated.
"I heard that Fengdie's child has moved into the divine envoy's room? Haha, that's a good thing! Aren't you good friends? Just a good companion!"
Adjani slowly lowered her head and said softly: "Elder Hughes, that's not the case. Fengdie...she hates me now, and she hates Lord God Envoy even more. You said, Lord God Envoy did this Are everything right?"
"That child Fengdie is used to being arrogant, so it doesn't matter if she suffers some setbacks. She decides to do one thing and will do it wholeheartedly, so you don't have to worry about her. I am very worried about you! You are a good child, but sometimes it is easy to change. It’s just a matter of course. Not all the deeds of the envoys are so glorious, I know this very well. However, we should believe that the envoys chosen by Shiloh for the elves will not be wrong. "
Xiusi laughed, drank another glass, and then said with satisfaction: "It's great to have Lord Divine Envoy here! I don't have to worry about anything as an old man! Adjani, you and Fengdie should take good care of Lord Divine Envoy in the future. Life! Hehe, this is just a little bit of selfishness on my part, old man!"
Adjani was a little anxious: "Elder Hughes, that's not the case! I feel, and I don't know why I know, that Lord God Envoy is doing a terrible thing to Rumsfeld. He and Feng Die are both They are my best brothers and sisters! And..."
Adjani hesitated for a long time, and finally plucked up the courage to say: "The God Envoy has always been merciless to anyone who goes against him. Although I love him very much, I also know that becoming his enemy will be a big deal." What a terrible thing! After I was rescued this time, for some reason, I suddenly felt that there was too much darkness and death in him. Elder Hughes, I'm afraid something will happen to Rumsfeld... "
Elder Hughes straightened his face and asked slowly: "Adjani, do you think the priests and Rumsfeld were at fault?"
Adjani was a little confused and thought for a while before answering: "Elves who have lost their traditions can no longer be regarded as elves. They can't say they have made a big mistake! So... So is it too much for the Lord God to use such methods to deal with them? ?”
Elder Hughes is surprisingly serious. All the traditions of the Eldar were formed in the glorious era before the Thousand Years War. At that time, the long-lived elves were proud of the entire Gloria continent with their extremely powerful magical civilization. Culture and traditions are formed based on civilization, but once they are formed, they tend to be self-consolidating, self-reinforcing, and self-rejecting things that can lead to change. The glorious age of the elves lasted for more than four thousand years. How much did our elves' civilization progress during this period? And under various pressures to survive, how far have their civilizations progressed? The disastrous outcome of the Millennium War for the elves was actually inevitable. Even if the elves were victorious in that battle, the next war would also fail! "
Seeing Adjani's confused look, Hughes sighed and said that traditional elves cannot be considered elves. But elves who adhere to all traditions are destined to be erased from history. Tradition is like a snake that keeps eating its own tail. One day, it will embark on the road of self-destruction. "
"So!" Hughes said categorically: "The two stumbling blocks, the priests and Rumsfeld, must be removed! No matter what means the God Envoy uses, the outcome will be the same!"
Adjani nodded in understanding, and Hughes' words made her feel more at ease.
Hughes looked at Adjani with a look of pity on his face, and then said: "Any change will have a price, the sacrifice and Rumsfeld are the price, the lives of thousands of elves and the lives of four hundred Dark Side of the Moon warriors are also the price. . The price is far from being paid! Good boy, don’t think too much. With the Divine Envoy standing in front of us, we can live a more relaxed life! Okay, you go back! Wait until the Divine Envoy has finished his work. , I will let him come to you."
Adjani sighed softly, stood up Yingying, and went upstairs as lightly as if she didn't even move.
Looking at Adjani's leaving gait, Hughes chuckled and thought to himself: "It seems that Adjani doesn't know how powerful she is. A bowl of blood can have this effect. This kid Rogge, I have a good background! It seems that I am old and wise! Hmm, I am indeed the wisest!"
Adjani returned to the third floor and was about to push the door open when it opened quietly.
Feng Die stood behind the door, leaning slightly, respectfully waiting for Adjani to enter.
Adjani's face was gloomy, she didn't even look at Fengdie, she lowered her head and rushed into the inner bedroom, lying on her bed and crying bitterly.
Feng Die showed no expression at all, closed the door gently, returned to the maid's room, stood quietly, green light flashed on her body, and began to practice Dou Qi again.
After Rogge went to interrogate Rumsfeld that morning, Feng Die moved all his things to Rogge's room. But no matter how much Adjani blocked her, she still insisted on moving into the maid's room. From then on, whenever he saw Adjani, Fengdie would greet her in the most respectful tone, but his words were cold and emotionless.
Adjani cried for a while, wiped away her tears, came to the door of Feng Die's room, and gently opened the door.
Fengdie slowly opened her eyes, Yingying came to Adjani and bowed: "Dear Miss Adjani, do you have any instructions?"
Adjani supported Feng Die and looked deeply into her eyes: "Feng Die! Don't do this again, okay? You don't understand the God Envoy. If you confront him coldly, you will only suffer. ! Moreover, I always feel that there is another mystery in the contract that the Lord God Envoy asked you to sign. He will never say that your sacrifice is stupid for no reason. Feng Die, we are the best sisters, and we will be the same in the future. As long as You and Rumsfeld promise not to go against the Lord God Envoy again, and I will beg him to let you go!"
Fengdie shuddered and raised her head, a mist flashing in her beautiful eyes.
But the mist quickly disappeared. She gently but firmly pushed Ajani's hand away.
"Sister Adjani! I call you sister again to thank you for thinking about me like this! You are the one who really doesn't understand Rogge. Do you think he will let us go because of your plea? We followed him For so long, have you seen him let go of anyone who is against him? Not only will he not let go, but he will kill them all without leaving any trouble! From the first day when I determined to overthrow him, I have Be mentally prepared to accept today's ending. Roger is a man, not a god. I don't believe that there will be a day when he will not make mistakes! I will not give in unless he kills me immediately! I will let him know, leave me A glimmer of hope would have been his biggest mistake!”
Looking at Fengdie's sad, sad and determined face, Adjani couldn't help but feel a sadness in her heart.
Late one night a few days later, a bone-chilling cold suddenly swept through the entire Oracle City, and almost all the elves woke up from their warm beds. This period of severe cold came and went quickly, which was very inexplicable. The elves cursed the bad weather in the north and went back to sleep.
The two doors of the temple's water prison opened quietly, and a cold wind surged out silently. Everything in the hall outside the door was instantly covered with a thick layer of ice! The two elf guards were completely sealed inside by the strange dark blue ice.
In the entire hall, only Elder Hughes had no abnormality within a one-meter radius, but suddenly the ice and snow piled up a meter-high snow wall around him.
Rogge stepped out of the snow in the cold wind. His head was messy, his eyes were bloodshot, and his face was covered with thick stubble. Only his steps in the snow were still steady and strong.
Hughes looked at Rogge, then at the empty space behind him, and suddenly sighed.
Rogge was still a little uncomfortable with the sudden changes in the hall. He couldn't help but be startled when he saw the two elven warriors sealed in the blue black ice. With a simple sweep of his mental power, he knew that the two warriors had frozen to death. He frowned slightly and made a gesture. Suddenly there was a faint light blue flash behind Rogge, and another gust of extremely cold ice wind blew out. The color of the black ice on the body of the Elf Warrior immediately became darker, and then exploded into ice powder all over the sky.
A small magic circle flashed in Rogge's hand, and the gentle wind sent all the snow and ice chips in the hall into the water prison door. Rogge hesitated again, and another red and black magic circle lit up on his right hand. The temperature in the room rose sharply, and in the blink of an eye, a raging flame ignited in the water prison!
The fire went away just as quickly as it came. In a moment, there was only a piece of charred remains in the water prison, and the ashes dyed the clear spring into gray black. No one can ever discover what happened in the water prison.
Rogge clapped his hands with satisfaction, walked to Hughes's small table and sat down, picked up a side dish, ate it viciously, and said vaguely: "Raphael! Come out and meet Elder Hughes!"
The empty place behind Rogge suddenly lit up with a faint blue light. The blue light became thicker and thicker, and finally condensed into a blurry figure.
The figure became clearer.
This is a handsome, evil and tall elf. He only wore a few pieces of dark green cloth around his waist, covering most of his skin, and it seemed that he could not feel the coldness of the deep winter in the north at all. His skin was a strange light blue with a purple tint, and there were fine, shiny black scales on his chest, lower abdomen and many other places.
Against the flickering candlelight in front of Hughes, his eyes kept changing colors. When the candlelight was dim, his eyes were faint green, but when the candlelight was bright, they turned golden.
Hughes took a deep look at Raphael. The elven warrior's body could not help but radiate wisps of biting cold air, and his long silver hair was slowly fluttering in the cold air. A hint of Rumsfeld can be seen vaguely in his eyebrows, but his eyes are much deeper and his nose is higher. He lost his original sunshine and handsomeness and gained more evil charm.
"Elder Hughes, Raphael has just woken up and is not yet good at controlling his power. I was too tired to notice this and accidentally froze to death two elf warriors." Rogge said as he ate. , he was really hungry.
Hughes sighed and said, "My lord, your strength has grown beyond my expectation!" You can even experiment with terrifying dark creatures like the Shadow Knight in such a magical way. However, although the powers of darkness and death are powerful and very easy to use, using them is not without cost! You need to control your use of and reliance on these two forces. "
Rogge raised his head, tried hard to swallow a whole green vegetable, and then said: "The use of any power has a price. The power of light, elemental power, and even the obscure space energy all have a price. These prices It’s not necessarily smaller than using the power of darkness and death. Although I don’t know what the price of these powers is yet, these powers can never be used for free. On the contrary, what will the powers of darkness and death bring to me? It’s quite clear.”
He paused, thought for a moment, and then said: "Elder Hughes, most people will choose an unknown future, so that although they may pay a greater price, they still have the hope of profit. But I am different. I'd rather pay the known price. I know I can afford it."
Hughes said in a low voice: "I'm afraid you think you can bear it, but you will regret it in the end!"
"What?" Rogge didn't hear clearly. He was busy dealing with Hughes's half-full jug of good wine.
"there is nothing."
Hughes said: "If my guess is correct, you want me to help you train Raphael, right? The Shadow Knight is born with invisibility and is indeed a natural terrorist killer. This child's fighting talent is still there How much? How far do you want him to go? How much time do you want to give me?"
"That's right! Elder Hughes, Raphael will become a sharp sword in my hand. I need him to join me in Dresden within seven days. By that time, I hope he can be equivalent to a tenth-level As for the other powers, I will let him slowly grow in the battle. As for the fighting talent, you can rest assured that he has completely retained his talent as the guardian of the Elf Temple."
"What? Completely preserved?" Hughes lost his voice: "This is impossible! Among all the dark secrets, the most effective method of transforming elves into dark creatures can only retain half of their wisdom. How did you do it? "
Rogge chuckled: Elder Si, how could a wise old fox like you not even know this? If you really don't know, wouldn't you just look up the ancient Elvish language collection yourself? "
Hughes snorted, his old face turned red, and he slowly said: "If I were so capable, I wouldn't have to hide in the Central Mountains for more than four hundred years. After four hundred years, no matter how wise the elf is, he will become a Stupid."
Roger took a long gulp of wine, took a deep breath, and asked again: "Elder Hughes, please don't be humble! If you are any more modest, you will definitely scare me away! You can choose a suit for Raphael while you watch." Equipment and appropriate martial arts, I know nothing about martial arts, I can only rely on you for these."
When Hughes nodded, Rogge said again: "The Oracle City has been quite peaceful these days, but you must not be idle. You must now know the composition and whereabouts of the human coalition forces that besieged us a few days ago. Already?"
Hughes stroked his neat beard and replied happily: "Of course! My old man has been an elder of the Dark Moon tribe for more than a hundred years, which specializes in military and martial arts. I still have this little common sense. There's none?"
Rogge finally had enough to eat and drink. He patted his belly with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Elder Hughes, your life has been very leisurely recently!"
"No way! Haven't I been working as a caretaker for you?"
"Really? It's really hard for you, asking you to do such a small thing. But there is a big thing now that you have to take action! How many twelfth-level magicians are there in the Oracle City now?" Rogge said with a sinister smile. Hughes asked.
Hughes instinctively felt something was wrong, but still replied: "There are two. One is Elder Sarah, and the other is an elder from the Seven-Colored Deer Tribe. Do you have any ideas?"
"Yes! You must know that this is needed for magic solidification. I don't want to be killed again! With this, my chance of survival will be greater." Rogge replied seriously.
Hughes immediately looked embarrassed. He pondered for a long time, and finally made up his mind and replied: "No problem! Elder Creedel of the Seven-Colored Deer Tribe can cast this magic! I will convince him!"
'Magic solidification' is a sixth-level magic that can permanently solidify a low-level magic onto the object of the spell. Such a powerful spell comes at an equally huge cost: the caster's magic power will be permanently reduced by two levels. There are very few magicians at level 12. Who is willing to sacrifice themselves like this? Even the great magician who originally developed 'magic solidification' has never used this magic once.
Rogge chuckled, lowered his voice and asked again: "So, dear Elder Hughes, do you have any news about the silver dragon that day?"
Hughes said helplessly: "I knew you, a dark guy, would definitely ask this question! It lives on a mountain peak more than 200 kilometers to the east, and it has no intention of leaving yet. But I have to remind you, that silver dragon But it’s a grown-up dragon! With the current strength of the Oracle City, even if it’s overwhelming, it won’t be able to do anything to it!”
Rogge thought for a while and suddenly asked: "How many magicians do we have above level eight now? I remember there were twelve. Is there any damage?"
"Fortunately, only one person died in the battle. Now there are eleven more, what happened?"
Rogge thought for a long time and said slowly: "I need to know more information about the silver dragon before I know whether my method is feasible. Elder Hughes, you have to worry about this matter."
Hughes nodded and agreed with a grimace, and then he was a little horrified to see that Rogge still looked at him expectantly.
"Elder Hughes!" Rogge put on the warmest and most professional smile.
Hughes sighed secretly and said feebly: "Master God Envoy, what other good things do you need me to do?"
"Elder Hughes! I am doing this for the future of the elves! If these things don't drag you down, I really won't be able to sleep peacefully. I need ten elven women who are willing to sacrifice themselves, are determined, and have deep thoughts. One may be harder to find, but two or three are necessary for the time being." Rogge said with a smile.
Hughes smiled bitterly. This was by no means a good job, but he knew very well what Rogge wanted to do. The beauty trap has always been a simple and effective method. However, it is not a problem for an elf woman to have beauty, will, and spirit of sacrifice. The difficulty lies in the four words of deep scheming. That's why Rogge said 'ten' hard-to-find words.
As soon as Hughes gritted his teeth and agreed, Rogge smiled and said, "This is one of them."
Hughes' old face immediately turned green.
"Secondly," Rogge slowly became serious and said, "I need to find a way to detect and interfere with the 'teleportation' magic. I know this is difficult, but it is not impossible! Because I once saw Someone has successfully interfered with the magic of 'teleportation'! Before the Millennium War, the elves relied on powerful magic to dominate the continent. I think the elves are likely to record information about 'teleportation'. I can only ask you for this. Because you are the only one who has mastered the ancient Elvish language."
