After the group entered the forest, the blue light curtain slowly closed behind them, as if they had life. They soon discovered that the inside and outside of the light curtain were completely two worlds, and the outside was still after noon, but inside the light curtain was already dark. There seemed to be a blue curtain hanging in the sky, and there were still a few stars hanging in the distance, like It is the view after dusk.
And a hundred steps away, the woodland is gloomy.
The huge contrast made everyone vigilant in unison, Nimésis and Freya gently drew their swords and looked around. There seemed to be some kind of uneasiness hidden in the air, making the vest chill.
Brando looked at the weird woodland, which was already in a valley, and the overlapping hills in the distance were immersed in the night. In the north, the sky is dark purple like a dead night. This hill was called the "Hill of Dusk" in China. In his memory, it should be the southwest corner of the Breath of Milos.
At the entrance of this area, there should be a den of twilight dogs, which is an ancient subspecies canine horror beast. It has long been extinct in Voend, but there are still a few in some black forests.
"Master Earl, as you said, which direction should we go now?" Laurenna interrupted his thoughts and asked.
"It was mentioned in the strategy that there should be a path leading to the'atrium'." Brando silently recalled the words on the strategy:'Twilight Hill' is the best entrance to the direction of Milos, and the gatekeeper's lair is The Twilight Dog of the horror beast extends north through the passage of the Twilight Dog’s lair, leading to the "Atrium". There is a treasure location at point A and point B. These two locations were in 385 and 387 respectively. The "Red Wing Brigade" and the "Crystal Apple" guild explore. 'If this is the first time this dungeon has been explored for people, then the treasure location mentioned in the guide may still exist. His gaze searched in the forest, and suddenly found that this endless valley is not just a passage? Brando's gaze stretched forward, and the dark green hills on both sides stretched to the north, which also coincided with the description on the strategy.
After confirming this, Brando had a plan: "We are walking along this valley, watching the monsters swimming on the road, try not to use magic, and do not activate magic items. Lighting uses open flames, and lighting crystals are temporarily prohibited. use."
Although the demon is not a difficult creature to deal with, once a battle begins, the magic power that escapes will attract more monsters. Some players once said that the devil is the siren in the copy of Breath of Milos, and this statement is not groundless.
"Do you understand?"
"Understand." Everyone nodded.
Brando is somewhat satisfied, although his knowledge of this copy only stays on the strategy. But he knows that people are always willing to believe in people who seem to be confident in an unknown environment. As the most experienced person in the team, he did his part to take up this responsibility.
He continued to order: "Aki, Medissa, you two make your way. Ms. Laurena, please break it."
"Okay, Lord Lord." Medissa nodded instead of Akane.
"No problem." Laurenna also raised her sheathed saber to her chest. This is Cruz's knight manners-representing willingness to take orders.
Since everyone had no objections, the team quickly divided the work. Akane and Medissa walked in the forefront as the eyes of the team. Both of them were walking through the dense coniferous forest with their spears. Soon they noticed that as the team deepened, they looked through the gaps between the layers of branches. The sky is getting darker and darker.
From the light red in the early evening, to light blue, and then to dark blue, it gradually became full of stars and became a scene of silent night. It seemed that after only ten minutes of walking in the woods, the sky changed from evening to late night.
In fact, this is exactly the characteristic of Dusk Hill. This is the transitional area of the Evernight Forest. Until it reaches this area, it is considered to have truly entered the center of the forest. The surroundings gradually became pitch black, but Akane lit a torch, and the fire light extended in all directions, dragging the dense cedar tree trunks around to create long shadows in the woodland, but where the light did not shine, the darkness appeared deeper and deeper.
The team moved forward for about half an hour, when Metissa suddenly noticed that little lights began to appear in the deep darkness, and she immediately recognized that it was a monster floating in the woodland.
She grabbed Qian and raised her finger to give her a'careful' gesture.
"What's that?" Qian also noticed the light spots in the forest and asked in a low voice.
"It may be a demon."
"So many!" Qian was startled. In her opinion, the number is indeed too much, at least hundreds of them. She looked at the floating spirits, and she seemed a little nervous for a while.
"Don't worry," Metisa said softly, "Although the demon is terrible, it is notoriously blind. As long as the magic is not used, the light is invisible to them. As long as we pay attention to it, it shouldn't be. There will be problems."
Akane nodded suspiciously. In fact, Brando used Medissa as the team’s eyeliner because she wanted to use her rich combat experience and the natural acumen of the elves. The practical intention of Brando arranging Qian as a partner was to protect the former; After entering the official position of the brigade mage, the level was washed to the first level with the Shire. Although they can now be upgraded by gaining experience like him, they have only undergone less than a month of experience, and their current strength has only just returned to level. Silver is just a beginner level.
Because the creatures of the travel mage have the defect that they cannot be resurrected, Brando has to be careful.
Akane glanced in that direction again, and when she turned her head back, her eyes were a little confused, as if she meant to say-"What should I do now, Medissa?"
The little silver elf princess understood her heart, and whispered: "Qian, see if you can go around on the left and right."
Qian was startled slightly and looked at her suspiciously. In theory, although Medissa is inferior to her by the front line, she is not even able to see the distance so far. But as if she had sensed the suspicion of the mountain girl, Metisa quickly explained: "This place seems to have certain restrictions on our heroic spirits—"
After speaking, she blushed as well. If it wasn't for the fact that her'level' was washed out, it was too difficult to explain, she really didn't know how to lie. But to be honest, even she herself hasn't figured out what this level is and why it is closely related to her own strength.
Fortunately, under the light of the fire, Hongqian didn't even notice the slightest blush. She nodded and turned back, but her gaze swept across the valley and found that the demon in the forest seemed to have blocked all the way forward.
After watching it carefully for a while, she shook her head slightly.
"Can't it?" Medissa groaned for a while, she immediately opened the heart connection and sent a message to Brando behind. Not long after, the bushes behind the two girls were separated with a bang, and Brando and his party had already walked out from there.
"Medissa, Akane."
After Brando got the news from Medissa, he probably guessed what was going on. He separated the bushes and walked out of the forest behind, and when he looked up, he saw the little lights in the darkness.
The Evernight Forest is a huge area. The distribution of monsters in this area is very random, but after the players' exploration, many of them have been found out. Prior to this, the path he directed for Medissa and Akane was in fact a very remote path. According to the above strategy, most unnecessary battles can be avoided.
Due to a lot of time wasted in Allathir Forest before, Brando had to choose this path. But this road is not safe, and there are two monster nodes that cannot be bypassed on its only way. One of them was a place called the Demon’s Pool, and the other was stuck at the last gate leading to the atrium, where they had to face the Dusk Dog and the Sigg.
Brando glanced at the amazing number of monsters in the forest, and probably determined the location here-the pool of monsters, although it is not a nest of monsters, but in some ways it is more like a nest.
The demon in the middle is a genuine golden-rank monster. Normally, if you want to kill so many of these things, players in no two regiments don't even think about it. But Brando happens to know an abnormal method to deal with these demons. In this kind of copy that has been thoroughly explored by players in the late game, there are really not too many weird strategies.
But he glanced over there, then looked away again. Before he is ready to pass here, he still has two things to do.
Brando judged the direction and glanced at a place in the dark, where he really saw a huge cedar that needed two or three people to embrace.
"Medissa, how tall are you," he whispered.
The silver elf princess was taken aback for a moment, but she didn't expect her lord to ask this strange question. She hesitated for a moment, and she was a little embarrassed to tell Brando the answer in her spiritual connection.
Despite this, she still heard Shire babbling and smiling. Brando glared at that side fiercely, and then he said, "Almost exactly, you come by me."
"Huh?" Medissa was puzzled, but still did what she said. Everyone didn't understand what Brando was doing. They could only watch the little silver elf princess walking up to Brando with some curiosity, "Lord Lord, do you have any orders?"
"Now you are facing me." Brando said, looking at the cedar.
"Brando, what are you doing?" Freya was a little strange, but everyone was as strange as him. If it hadn't been for her to ask, Feralas, who was eager to try, would have already planned to speak.
"Wait you'll know." Brando replied.
Metisa hesitated slightly before continuing to take a step closer. She was almost face-to-face with Brando now, and she could even feel the faint breath of the lord's body. She blushed, and since she was called by Brando, she had never been so close to her master at such an ambiguous distance.
But Brando was still dissatisfied. He pressed her shoulder and adjusted her direction. Medissa was taken aback, and several times the tip of her nose touched Brando's chest.
"Brando!" Freya glared at Brando. If it weren't for considering that the enemy was nearby, she would have to stab him with a sword.
But Brando hadn't heard of it. Only at this moment, he felt as if he was back in the game, and he was in the era of reclaiming wasteland with his trusted companions. He stared at the huge cedar, and whispered to Medissa:
"You start with me now, take ten steps back, and tell me what you feel."
Brando's words sounded a bit like a riddle, but Medissa had already trusted him to the point where she could do everything without asking the reason. She was just a little startled and nodded and slowly backed away.
Everyone saw her withdraw ten steps, and then stopped.
"Tell me what you feel under your feet." Brando asked.
Medissa's eyes lit up slightly and looked very strange: "... I feel a weak magic power, like a magic mark. Lord Lord, how do you know there is something here?"
But Brando obviously didn't intend to answer her question for the time being. He took the torch from Akane on the side and took a photo of the torch at Medissa. The fire light immediately printed the shadow of the silver elf princess to the ground, and the others followed Brando's gaze and were shocked.
Because they saw the shadow behind Medissa, there was a pair of translucent wings.
"This is...?" Feralas couldn't help being a little dumbfounded.
But Brando yelled "Sure enough" in his heart. Among them, only Laurenna was keenly aware of the change in his expression, and the female knight immediately asked, "Mr. Earl, do you know anything?"
Brando let out a sigh of relief, then nodded and replied: "The devil will not gather in a certain place for no reason. The origin of this place is actually related to the dark tower wizard of Karasu."
"The Dark Tower Wizard?" Even Charles was taken aback now. You know, he was once a member of the Dark Tower Wizard.
Brando smiled slightly, this time he did not lie, which can only be said to be a coincidence. The background of this place in the game is indeed from the Dark Tower Wizard. "The Dark Tower Wizard is the most powerful organization of wizards in Eruin. Just like the wizards in many other places, their curiosity for secrets and knowledge is unparalleled. Like the Buga wizards, in order to explore the lost secrets, the footprints of the Dark Tower wizards are all over every relic of this kingdom. This mysterious forest is naturally no exception."
"Lord Lord, you mean the Dark Tower Wizard once sent an investigation team into this forest, and here..." Laurenna reacted.
"Same as you guessed, but slightly different." Brando replied while recalling the record on this place in the Raiders: "The Dark Tower wizards have entered this forest more than once in hundreds of years of history, except The danger zone in the center, they can say they have known this area a long time ago."
He looked at Laurenna and added: "You don't think that Anlek will rush into this forest without any hesitation. Like me, there must be someone who is familiar with this forest, maybe that guy. He is also the Dark Tower Wizard."
"But aren't the Dark Tower Wizard and the Highland Knight allies, Brando, you..." Freya asked incomprehensibly.
"The forest is big, but there are all kinds of birds, and not all dark tower wizards follow the tower agreement." Shire explained immediately.
"Exactly," Brando continued: "But this is not the subject of our discussion. Back then, the Dark Tower wizards came here to destroy a very powerful demon item, and they hope to use one of them here. The magic circle is here to completely destroy the demon thing from Qiao Gendigang—"
He paused: "However, there were traitors in the team at that time, and some wizards were tempted by the power of the devil, and the whole action fell short. It is said that the demon item exploded violently on the magic circle, and nearly a hundred black towers were accompanying them. The wizards and their apprentices were blown into ashes, and the souls of these people were eroded by the magic of darkness, gradually forming the demons wandering here."
"Nearly a hundred wizards?" Laurenna took a breath of air in disbelief. She could fully imagine how tragic it was at that time.
The other people's faces also showed some solemn expressions.
But Brando just smiled. The whole incident was not as horrible as they thought. If the Dark Tower wizard hangs on nearly a hundred official wizards at a time, this organization is probably not far from falling apart. There were actually only twelve official wizards, including the traitor, and most of the others were apprentices.
However, the remaining demon is true. He continued: “Of course, the demon item was said to have been wiped out in the explosion, but the Dark Tower wizard still established an observation post in this place for insurance. This post is said to have been used for nearly a hundred years. It was not abandoned until the last century."
"Observation post?" Feralas was stunned, and couldn't help looking around: "Why didn't I see it? Has it been taken down?"
"Of course not. Naturally, the observation posts of the wizards will not be those fortress towers you have seen before." Nimesis, who had not spoken at this time, suddenly said: "Brando, you were looking for that post before. Right?"
Brando nodded.
"That magic landmark is a guide point. The wizard's literature says that the post should be next to the cedar, in the direction that the shadow of the wings behind Metisa points to."
"But I didn't see anything." Feralas looked over there, "Could it be that the thing is in the sky."
Brando glared at the guy dumbly, and now he was a little convinced of this guy's shit luck. Unexpectedly, the other party said it casually, and he really got it right.
He raised his head and replied: "Yes, the real sentry tower is in the sky. We have to find a way to summon it down."
"Summon it down?" Laurenna frowned: "I understand, it can help us deal with these demons, right? Since the wizards built such a tower, their role is to guard against these demons."
"Exactly." Brando approves slightly. But he understands that in fact, this Miss Cavalier from Cruz is not quite right. In the middle, there is often more than one way to pass through many plot areas. He still has a way to sneak past the valley without attracting the attention of the demons—but Brando does not intend to give up such a large amount of experience, not to mention that if the record on the strategy is not false, the guard tower should be in this copy. One of the treasure places.
This task was originally an additional reward.
But these words can't be said naturally, he turned around and said: "Charl, you should know the spells of the Dark Tower wizards that summon the Wizard Tower."
Charles immediately nodded, and replied in his heart: "I forgot a lot after the transfer, but at least I remember one or two. After all, the Dark Tower Wizard was originally part of the Buga."
"That's good," Brando glanced at the demon in the distance, and began to give orders: "It takes a certain time to summon the tower, but once the spell is started, the demon over there will find us. Therefore, summon us in the Shire. In the sentry tower, the task of others is to protect him from completing the task."
As soon as Brando's voice fell, it was like a signal for battle. Nimésis, Freya, Laurenna, and the guards immediately drew their long swords, and Akane and Medissa also took up their long spears. Everyone subconsciously arranged a semicircle around the silver elf princess' current position.
Brando showed a satisfied look, and also drew out the sword of the earth, while reminding: "The attack method of the demons is very simple, they rarely fight melee, but pay attention to their attacks can penetrate the armor of the entity; also be careful of them. The spells, Medisa, Akane, you stay to protect the caster and Haruze. Others try to get close to them quickly."
"clear."
"Charle, you start to put it."
The young mage attendant nodded, he stood behind Medissa, felt the position of the magic mark, then raised his staff, and began to recite the spell of summoning the wizard tower. And this not high-pitched spell seemed to be an eye-catching signal in the dark, and suddenly everyone saw the dots of light in the forest stopped slightly.
Then they suddenly rose into the air, as if looking for the source of the spell, hovering around the forest for a while, turning their heads and rushing towards this side.
"According to the literature, although most of the demons were outstanding wizards during their lifetimes, they have long forgotten those profound knowledge. The spells they are good at are just the use of pure dark magic. These out-of-order mana will not last too far. Distance, they will usually launch the first wave of spell attacks from a hundred feet away." Metisa looked at the light groups, and was the first to call out to remind.
The demon floating in the dark is extremely fast, and at this time it has come close. Everyone can see their images clearly. These light clusters shining in the dark look like the image of a naked human or elves. They almost still retain the appearance they had before alive, but their faces His chest was covered with patterns eroded by dark magic, and there were no eyeballs in his eye sockets, only pitch black remained.
This horrible look left a deep impression on everyone, and the little prince screamed in fright.
"One hundred and forty-one feet to be exact." Brando stared in that direction, raising his sword, "measure the distance by himself."
The demon had stopped at the edge of the forest, and the distance was no different from Brando's memory, which happened to be the farthest range of their spells. These twisted creatures raised their hands, and their hands became ugly and pointed and long because of the distortion of magic. From these slender fingertips, suddenly black flames spurted out.
These black flames, like tentacles, were intertwined together, and at that moment it was like a huge pitch black net falling from the sky, and it seemed to envelop everyone in it.
