Chapter 408 Searching for the War in the North

There aren't many places to hide in the dark underground halls. . . Henry first checked the sarcophagus against the smell of corpses, and found a skeleton torso made of pure gold in the hidden compartment at the bottom. There was an obvious evil atmosphere all around, but there were no hands and feet. There is no doubt that this is part of the seal used to seal the demilich Kangus, and it will only work when the other part is completely assembled.

But he obviously wouldn't just collect all the money and send it to Kangus so stupidly. At least he had to do something, even if he couldn't kill him, he still had to do enough damage. After all, the demilich's damage reduction is too terrifying. If you add a few protective magics, you can be invulnerable to weapons, fire and water.

After throwing the torso made of gold into the dimension bag, Henry continued to search for the phylactery of the Elementalic. Although this guy is a bit brain-dead, but the spellcasting level is really not low, even if he can't be a mobile cannonball on his own, it's still no problem. But in the sarcophagus, apart from some shriveled corpses, there is no other valuable things at all.

It seemed that the Lich hid his phylactery elsewhere. Thinking of this, he frowned slightly, and began to look around for suspicious places. You must know that this is not a good phenomenon, and if you can't find it, the consequences will be quite serious. Especially the legendary magic called "Terrifying Deep Cold" that was cast just now, it sounds like a large-scale cold damage spell of the evocation system. If this elemental lich ran to Bleuwente City to take revenge, then the whole city would likely be frozen, and except for a few powerful professionals, everyone else would die.

Henry absolutely didn't allow this kind of thing to happen in his own territory, so he immediately cast a series of magics "Arcane Vision" and "Detection Secret Door". With the special effects of two spells. He soon discovered that there was a small hidden grid in the ceiling of the roof. About the size of a palm. It is dug quite deep, and there is magic protection. If you can't find the mechanism, you can't open it at all. If nothing else, this should be the place where the phylactery is hidden.

Now that he found the specific place, Henry's hanging heart was relieved. After all, even if you can't get the phylactery, it's no problem to destroy it. Anyway, there are as many powerful damage magics as there are, if it doesn't work, you can transform into an ancient red dragon and directly demolish this building. It is obvious that he has not reached this point yet, so he continues to use "arcane vision" to search carefully. It didn't take long to see that there seemed to be a turntable at the bottom of the candle held by the statue.

This discovery made Henry a little excited, so he ran over and turned it slightly, only to hear a "click click" sound of gears turning from the top of his head, followed by a thick stone slab suddenly fell, revealing a small piece inside recessed place. He directly cast a "Mage Hand", and pulled out an oval emblem inlaid with purple gemstones from the depths, which looked like a symbol issued to internal members by some organization.

There is no doubt that this is the phylactery, because the negative energy emanating from it cannot be faked at all. Although this thing does not seem too precious. Perhaps there is a special commemorative significance for the elemental lich. You must know that most undead creatures will place some obsessions in life on objects, such as portraits, necklaces, rings, clothes, shoes, and even smelly socks. In short, there are a lot of tricks.

After secretly despising the elemental lich for being a poor ghost, Henry packed his emblem and quickly left the building. He has to go to the sewer in the temple area tonight, and kill the other elemental lich. God knows if there will be any connection and induction between them.

There is an old saying that goes well, if you cut the grass without removing the roots, it will regenerate when the spring breeze blows. Before crossing, Henry often heard people say that elephants would never pay attention to the provocation of ants, which was used to set off the magnificence of certain characters. But he felt that this sentence was completely misleading, and at some point the ants also had a chance to kill the elephant.

For example, if the ant's pincers were just stained with deadly toxin and bit the elephant's most vulnerable eyelid, then the toxin would kill a giant animal in a very short period of time. Of course, the chances of this are very low, but not nonexistent. Turn over the history and look at those big figures, many of them were planted in the hands of small people who usually don't even look at them.

Never underestimate anyone, this is one of the basic principles of the Henley people. Whenever he kills his enemies, he will always eradicate all hidden dangers at once, whether it is the elderly, women, or infants. Although doing so will cause a certain degree of negative impact, it is much better than suddenly appearing an immortal and powerful enemy inexplicably in the future.

No one knows what will happen in the future, maybe the infant will grow into a powerful professional, maybe the woman will find a backer with strong strength, maybe the old man will transform himself into an undead creature out of hatred. In short, it is the smartest way to kill these unstable factors in the cradle. After all, there is nothing more reassuring than a dead person.

Relying on the darkness and the invisibility ability of the Archmage's staff, Henry quietly dodged the patrolling temple knights and entered the dirty and smelly sewer. According to his plan, ignore all the monsters along the way, go straight to the location of another seal, use a legendary magic "sunrise" to kill the elemental lich and leave.

Although the idea is very good and the feasibility is very high, but one of the most important problems is ignored, that is the complexity of the sewer. You must know that the city of Askatla has a long history, and the underground has long been dug in all directions, and its complexity is no worse than that of the eighth-level magic "maze".

At first, Henry cast a "North Pointing Technique" and headed westward according to the memory in the game. It took more than half an hour before he realized something was wrong. Because the passages here are all a bit curved, walking back and forth actually made a big circle and returned to the starting point. After cursing a few words fiercely, he took out the crystal ball without hesitation, and began to use detection spells to overlook the floor plan of the entire sewer.

This really corresponds to that sentence, if you don't read it, you don't know it, and you are shocked when you see it. There are large and small passages criss-crossing, which looks like a huge prismatic spider. If there is no familiar person to guide the way, I am afraid that I will not be able to get out until I die. No wonder so many monsters chose this place as their hiding place. Even if all the masked mages came, they might not be able to search every corner.

Fortunately, Henry has a special method to distinguish. During the detection process, there are three points that generate energy fluctuations that exclude magic detection. According to the information in memory, there should be a lair of mind flayers in this sewer, an ancient dungeon connected to the lair of beholders, and finally a place where mages live in seclusion.

Obviously, as long as you take a look at these places in person, you can quickly find your target. Because only they have the ability to block detection, and the hiding place of the elemental lich is at the entrance of the ancient dungeon.

Just do it, Henry didn't dare to wander off this time, holding a crystal ball in his hand, and blessed himself with a positioning magic. Holding this magic version of GPS, he carefully avoided the ubiquitous kobolds, rotten dung monsters, ooze monsters, and other messy monsters, and started the maze exploration journey.

At the same time, a massacre had just ended in El Toril City, and an army of more than 300 hobgoblins and gnolls had been wiped out. They were originally scattered and stationed in nearby villages to deter farmers who had little resistance. However, Corey used rumors to deceive them all into the city, and then launched a surprise attack to completely solve this problem.

Looking at the soldiers who were cleaning up the corpses, he felt relieved. Now that a vacuum zone has been formed near the city of El Toril, the power of the Iron Throne has been completely uprooted, and no one will know that the city has fallen. Looks like it's time to start heading north, if we're a bit slower I'm afraid Soba will fall.

With a wicked smile on the corner of her mouth, Sandy walked over and asked in a low voice, "When are you leaving?" She had just participated in a killing, so she was in a very happy mood now.

"Let's go tonight. Taking advantage of the cover of the night, we can rush all the way to the town of Cui Er before dawn. The city wall there is not too high, and if it goes well, it can be taken down with a surprise attack." Corey swept He glanced at the two humanoid dragons.

The ferocious performance of the two of them in this battle has aroused the awe of many soldiers, especially the black dragon Oroxis, who wields two evil and powerful magic weapons like a meat grinder. In the bloody storm, no one can cause even the slightest obstruction.

As for Ortagus, the brown dragon, he behaved more like a stealthy assassin. With the power of magic and excellent thieves skills, although he is not as intimidating as the black dragon looks, but the number of people killed is not small at all. Together with the sorceress, these three guys killed more than two-thirds of the enemies.

"I advise you not to think about the two of them, because you are not as powerful as the master." Sandyer saw through Corey's plan at a glance. Apparently, the commander had relapsed into his old habit of getting something good into the army as soon as he had it.

After hearing this warning, Corey nodded with a wry smile. "Understood. Giant dragons are proud creatures, and they will definitely not obey the command of me, a level 14 fallen knight." He knew very well that since he lost the favor of Heim, the god of guardians, his professional level has completely lost the possibility of rising again. .

"By the way, what will happen to the city after we leave?" Sandyr asked curiously. She noticed that Corey has been discussing something with a young adjutant mysteriously recently.

"Give it to Amber, the young man who is in charge of disposing of the corpse. I will leave him an army of 200 people, and all the prisoners." As he spoke, a smile appeared on Corey's face. The more he looked at this young adjutant, the more he was satisfied. Both his strategy and command ability were excellent, and his appearance was quite handsome. He was simply the perfect candidate for his son-in-law.
