Broad World

Chapter 378: Southern Tomb

Passing through the stone gate, the dark cave suddenly lit up. Every ten meters or so, there is a brazier blessed with "inextinguishable flames", extending to the deepest point. On both sides of the spacious passage are rooms sealed with thick stone slabs. Huge statues guard the surroundings, and murals are painted on the walls and the ground. After such a long time of baptism, they are still radiant.

Henry carefully looked at the portraits of male figures pieced together on the floor tiles. I saw him wearing a dark blue hat that looked a little strange, it was studded with gold and precious stones, his eyes and cheeks were also painted light blue, and he made a gesture of crossing his chest with his hands. Judging from the dress and body movements, there is no doubt that it is the style of the Shane Empire. It seems that a great person is buried in this tomb group, even if he is not a member of the royal family.

If Dai Nahei was still alive, he would be excited to interpret the narrative pictures and words on the wall. But these current teammates obviously don't have such patience, especially the irritable dwarf, who is already trying to pry the stone door with an axe. He has no interest in history and culture, and only funerary objects are the only purpose.

As Edwin walked along the passage, he held a piece of paper to compare the pattern on it. It was obvious that he had made sufficient preparations before coming here, and he was bound to get the Netheril scroll. Although his actions were very careful, accidents inevitably happened.

Suddenly there was a "click" sound in the silent corridor, followed by a stone slab sinking, all the stone doors began to vibrate, and it didn't take long before they began to slowly descend. Korgan adjusted his helmet. Holding an ax and yelling: "Nice job! I'm thinking about breaking all these broken doors. Then..."

The words are not finished yet. A mummy with bandages all over its body and looking a bit dry rushed forward. He was caught off guard and fell to the ground, cursing as he struggled: "Damn it! Come and help me get rid of this ugly undead creature."

Viconia walked over quickly and swung the flail and hit the mummy's head fiercely, knocking it flying in an instant. She said to the dwarf condescendingly: "If I were you, I wouldn't get too close to the door next time. You must know that there are usually many undead in such ancient tombs like yours. This time I am lucky. If I encounter a vampire, I am afraid I will be bitten."

"I think... the vampire you mentioned has already appeared, and there are many skeleton warriors, zombies, and wights." Henry pointed into the passage as he said. A large number of undead creatures slowly came out from the stone gate, and there were at least fifty in number. Fortunately, the most difficult to deal with are vampires. There is no such difficult opponent as the Lich.

"Uh... I seem to have accidentally touched a certain mechanism. These undead creatures look like the guards of the tomb." Edwin explained in a evasive way, and it seemed that he didn't intend to admit his mistake at all.

But now everyone has no time to find out who is responsible, because all the undead creatures are rushing towards this side. They are quite sensitive to the breath of living people, and even the few vampires at the end of the passage did not fall. Henry sighed slightly, and said to the only priest in the team: "I hope you have prepared enough positive energy spells, otherwise such a large number will be very troublesome."

Viconia smiled and replied: "Don't worry, I can supersede and control those low-level undead creatures, but higher-level ones like vampires and mummies can't help it." After she finished speaking, she knelt on one knee and began to pray loudly, and an invisible force field gradually spread around.

Those small skeletons and slow-moving zombies seem to be controlled by some powerful force. Turn around and start attacking the same kind around you. This is the unique skill of the priest, "Super Undead Creature". The priest of the good camp is to dispel the negative energy. Forcing souls to return to rest in the realm of the dead, evil priests forcibly control the minds of the undead, ordering them to serve them.

It is said that the transcendence of high-level priests can even have some impact on powerful undead creatures such as vampires and liches. But Viconia is still far behind, her priest level is only thirteen, at best she can control the lowest level of zombies and skeletons, even mummies and corpses have no response.

Seeing that the scene was becoming more and more chaotic, Henry continued to cast the "Sunburn Technique", calling the names of several vampires and tall skeleton warriors inside one by one. As a legendary druid, even a first-level divine spell can cause great damage, not to mention the positive energy that specifically targets undead creatures. Fiery rays of light descended from the sky, smashing them into half-mutilated bodies within half a minute. The vampire was even more miserable, turning into a pile of dust after letting out an ear-piercing scream.

Korgan stood at the front alone, with two axes flying up and down, but no enemy could rush past him. The dwarf berserker used his height of less than 1.4 meters to build a solid line of defense for the casters behind him. There were already countless corpses lying beside him, most of them were cut short out of thin air, because all the parts below the knees had been chopped off.

Edwin released two third-level magic "Undead Immobilization" consecutively, immobilizing a large number of enemies in place. At this time, Fide also flashed out of the shadows, and his backstab dagger was aimed at the joints. After all, undead creatures are harmless. Before the negative energy is exhausted, even if there is only one head left, they will rush up and bite.

Henry closed his eyes, chanted a mantra, and began to perform self-hypnosis, constantly instilling in his brain: "I can do it! I can definitely do it! My fireball technique will kill all the undead creatures in front of me!" Suddenly, he felt a trace of special energy from the rune on his forehead, which was injected into the spell that was about to be completed.

The whole magic seems to have entered a fully automatic state, and finally there is no need for spell chanting and casting actions. I saw a fist-sized sky-blue fireball appearing out of nowhere in mid-air, continuously radiating intense heat to the surroundings. Without hesitation, Henry shouted at the two teammates in front who were still struggling to kill: "Korgan! Feid! Run back! It's too late!"

The dwarf warrior looked up subconsciously, left the undead corpse and turned around and ran away. He cursed loudly as he ran: "Damn! Damn! That's why I hate magic, they always have accidents."

"Shut up and run, that scary little ball is about to fall..."

Before Fei De finished speaking, he heard a loud noise from behind, followed by a strong shock wave that blew everyone into the air. The light and heat generated at the moment of the explosion illuminated the interior of the cave like daytime, and all the undead creatures disappeared without leaving any residue.

A minute later, Henry got up from the ground with difficulty, shook the dirt on his body and hair, and couldn't speak a word when his mouth grew wide. The entire tomb has been changed beyond recognition, many walls collapsed directly, and the two huge guardian stone statues were also broken into two pieces. The most frightening thing is that a pothole with a diameter of five meters and a depth of more than ten meters was actually created in the center of the explosion. This is still a third-level magic "fireball", almost catching up with small tactical nuclear bombs.

At this moment, he finally understood what the negative personality meant by "indescribably terrifying energy" and "it is everything". You must know that this is just a small amount of injection. If you can mobilize all the energy, and then firmly believe that you can destroy the world in your heart, maybe the entire main material plane will be blown to pieces in an instant.

But it's a pity that under the current situation, it can only be used up to five times a day, and the spell can't exceed level five. Of course, five chances can also be converted into one chance to cast a ninth-level magic, but before the power can be controlled, forget it. God knows what the consequences will be, maybe a city will be wiped off the map.

"Come on, Shar! What have you done! Do you want to kill us together?" Viconia asked with a trembling voice as soon as she opened her eyes. She couldn't believe what she saw, a blue fireball the size of a fist had such terrifying destructive power.

The third one to wake up was Edwin. The red-robed mage kept his mouth tightly shut. However, his eyes showed shock, fear, fear, and even admiration, because only the top spellcasters can create their own magic, and most other mages can't even learn magic above level five.

This is also the reason why Edwin found two magic scrolls just now and immediately took them as his own. After leaving Searle, he had already lost the channel to obtain high-level scrolls, so he seemed so impatient. After all, the power of a mage is based on the ability to master countless spells. If the spell book is empty, even I will not feel uneasy.

Henry smiled awkwardly and explained: "This is a small accident... It's also the first time I used it, so... I didn't know it would be so powerful."

"My God! How dare you take care of a little accident? You know it almost killed us both." As he spoke, Korgan pushed the stone slab away from him, helping Fade as well. There were several bruises on his face, which looked like he had been injured by a stone.

"That's right! I almost went to see the god of death just now. Head, please shout when you cast a dangerous spell next time, and I promise to hide away." Fei De echoed, rubbing his painful buttocks.

Seeing that everyone was condemning him, Henry just shook his head helplessly and made a promise. "Well, I swear I'll tell everyone the next time I cast a powerful spell. Don't worry, a situation like this will never happen again. Of course, when you need to work hard, you won't be able to take care of that much."

He has secretly made up his mind that he must find a place where there is no one when practicing in the future. In this way, even if it gets out of control, you can use teleportation magic to escape immediately, so that innocent people will not be implicated.
