Chapter 202 The Ruins

The light of the knife flashed like stone fire and spring thunder, and even the atmosphere was frozen by it.

The explosive sound in the air resounded violently, and the wonderful slashes enough to be included in the textbook did not stop even for a second, but one move after another, and the tip of the knife took advantage of the opportunity to make gorgeous crescent slashes one after another. hit!

One after another, deformed and weird heads flew up. Those monsters with crooked bodies and hideous faces turned into headless corpses one after another, or were cut into two parts, and fell to the ground. A lot of blood was free. gushes from the wound...

Short centipedes are extremely aggressive crustacean poisonous insects, each of which is the size of an adult wolf dog. They move extremely quickly and are disgusting to look at. Their sharp mouthparts and venom are quite deadly. They surge up in the darkness , like an endless tide.

However, before the energy slash from the blade, it was directly cut in half, or directly dismembered, and smashed to pieces, leaving only the chelicerus joints, broken carapaces, and sticky and disgusting flesh. body fluid……

The smell of blood and other strange smells permeated this dark underground space, and it became more and more intense.

These monsters are not completely without weapons. Although most of them are still unarmed, some of them hold simple bows and arrows or hand axes, and wear horrible leather armor.

Of course, it does not mean those disgusting crustacean poisonous insects like short centipedes, but those rickety humanoid creatures. Their essence is actually degenerated snow elves, a race that was once thought to have been extinct under the hunting of the Nords. .

In fact, they have always been hidden deep in the dark underground, because they were betrayed, framed, and enslaved by the dwarves, and finally made their original splendid civilization degenerate.And because they adapted to the dark underground environment, they evolved into a violent, cruel, primitive, and bloody race.

It is said that the snow elves, like the giant dragon, are legendary species. They were originally a branch of the ancient elves that migrated to the snowy sky. They are called snow elves because of their tall stature and pale skin.

They originally got along with the ancient humans who also migrated to the sky, but perhaps they were afraid of the rapid development of humans, or because of the innate confrontation between dragons and snakes, they launched a massacre called "Night of Tears".

The cycle of karma and retribution is not good. The surviving ancient pioneer Ysgramor led a group of super strong men to return to counterattack. The leader of the snow elves, Prince Snow, was killed. This race was finally expelled from the province of Skyrim by the ancient Nords at the beginning of the first era.

Then, this race asked the dwarves for help, and the dwarves generously agreed to protect them and gave them a chance to continue to survive——

It seems so on the surface, but in fact, the dwarves forced their whole clan to use poisonous mushrooms with malicious intentions, causing them to gradually lose their eyesight and mental retardation.

And in order to ensure that these characteristics penetrate deep into the snow elves, so that their offspring will also inherit these degraded genes, so that they can be better used as livestock slaves, the dwarves raised the plan to enslave the snow elves to the same level of priority as their daily diet.

Of course, the cruel treatment and living environment resulted in a stooped body, degenerated blindness, wrinkled skin, low intelligence and violent personality.The body and mind of the snow elves were forced to degenerate, and they began to retreat to deeper layers...

In the end, a civilized race has completely lost both etiquette and cultural education because of living in caves for centuries, and has become a monster with a crooked body and a hideous face, driven by the dwarves as slaves.

Not knowing when it started, the snow elves began to occupy the underground dwarf ruins after the dwarves died suddenly and disappeared from the world due to the suspected failure of the god-making plan.They breed the poisonous Charus, eat the eggs of the Charus, use the horniness and toxins of the Charus to make armor and poisoned weapons, and start to attack and plunder all the existences on the ground frantically.

Xia Ran didn't expect to meet this poor race at this time, but he just didn't show mercy.

Compared with the explosive, powerful, and massive destruction spells, his killing at the moment is more like the art of showing off skills, but it is also extremely efficient and fast. How many heads.

And the range is not bad, as long as the magic power that is deeply infused into it overflows, it can be transformed into a huge blade, and by waving it, it can display a light slash that is as smooth as a mirror, and it can easily cut nearly a hundred meters away. .

Whether it was the hunchbacked snow elf with a hideous face, or the disgusting Chalus poisonous insect like a short centipede, they would all be cut in half and die in pieces.

They are like sea tides coming from the depths of darkness, but Xia Ran's killing speed and killing efficiency are faster than the number of them refreshed.

In addition, the power of this energy slash is extremely compressed, almost condensed into a straight line, without large-scale explosion and splash damage, not only will it not be wasted, but it will also not cause too much movement or terrain change.

If you switch spells, so many monsters will be troublesome. If the power of the spell is low, it will definitely not be able to sweep them away. If the power of the spell is too strong, it may cause the rocks above to collapse and directly crush them.

The reality is not a game, and it’s not like a skill that should be able to destroy the world, but after being released, it can’t even smash the floor of the battle scene, because the engine does not support the physical damage effect of the environment...

Moreover, the ebony blade not only gave Xia Ran an extremely powerful close combat ability, but because of its characteristics, when using this knife, the consumption is very small, and it can completely support the battle by fighting——

Just consuming the magic power to trigger a huge light slash, and swiping the knife, all the magic power is absorbed back, and even the excess energy can be fed back to strengthen himself... Although he hasn't found any of his attributes have increased for the time being, However, the annotation of the space is always correct.

In this way, the efficient and rapid massacre is still going on, the blade seems to set off a killing storm, the destructive slashing lines cut through the air criss-cross, mercilessly dividing everything in front...

As a result, bodily fluids of various colors splashed into the air, and various broken body tissues scattered all over the ground. The corpses of the snow elves or the carapaces of the poisonous Chalus insects, etc., quickly piled up like a mountain around, and became more and more serious. many……

In the end, I don't know whether they were afraid, retreated in fear, or were completely killed. When Xia Ran stopped, nothing swarmed out from the darkness in the distance.

There was liquid dripping from the hanging ebony blade, and it was not clear what color it was because of the dim light.

Xia Ran whispered something softly, and then, with the help of the whispering effect of aura, she confirmed that there were no more enemies nearby, so she waved her knife to shake the blood, and put away the magic blade.The prompt message of the white space sounded not long ago, telling him that he had obtained 3 free attribute points.

Two of them are points obtained normally, and the remaining point is obtained additionally through the energy-absorbing effect of the ebony blade.

It seems that the wool of the space is really squeezed?Does this mean that the life lost by the lost, the essence absorbed through the rules of space, the handling fee alone is at least as high as 30.00%?

But it actually allows wool to be pulled?Will it be settled after the autumn, or is there another secret?

Xia Ran didn't have time to think too much. Although the snow elves and Chalus poisonous insects had disappeared, there seemed to be something coming from a certain direction ahead, but there was no life.

But it doesn't look like undead, Xia Ran roughly confirmed what they were in the map model reconstructed by obtaining information from breath feedback——

They were all kinds of weird mechanical puppets, the models were not the same, there were big and small, even if he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, the modeling of the breath feedback was enough for him to understand a lot of details, and he was sure that it was extremely precise Dwarf machinery.

But if you think about it, places with a large number of snow elves often mean that there are underground ruins of dwarves nearby.

Many people may have some preconceived impressions of this race because of the name "dwarf".

In fact, they are not short at all, because they are also a branch of the elves, called the deep elves, and they are called "Dwemer" in the elf language. It is said that the name of the dwarves was handed down from the giants.

They are the most mysterious race on the entire continent, with advanced culture and advanced technology. They make good use of steam, machinery and geothermal heat, and perfectly combine technology with magic...

Although their entire clan has disappeared, the dwarven machines they created are still operating in the underground ruins, and they are very powerful.

Xia Ran still pressed her right hand on the hilt of the knife, crossed the battlefield just now, and walked forward in a spotless manner. If it wasn't for the magician costume with a robe and hood, she would really look like a handsome swordsman.

He is very interested in dwarf machinery, and he wants to take this opportunity to see it.

A passage appeared in front of it, but unlike before, although it was pitch black with no light, Xia Ran could clearly see that it was a passage of a man-made building, and it was very spacious.

The magician stepped into it indifferently, and at a glance, he saw that there were large blocks of floor tiles neatly laid under his feet, and on the walls on both sides and on the top, there were thick brass pipes extending into the distance for an unknown age, as if It is a modern water supply or gas supply pipeline...

He raised his head and looked back, only to see that the other ends of these brass pipes were submerged into the mountain, and he didn't know where they penetrated. The high temperature heat inside was still radiating through the metal.

If ordinary people dared to reach out and touch it, they would probably burn their skin to pieces.Some of the pipes in front of the passage were probably damaged, and steaming hot steam gushed out, making a hissing sound in the darkness.

Accompanied by rapid and intensive knocking sounds, several small, spider-like figures shot out from the darkness, showing amazing jumping abilities, and flew towards Xia Ran's face like face-hugging insects that broke out of their shells. Pounce.

The lightning-like sword-drawing technique showed its sharpness again. Amidst the crisp sound, precision metal parts were scattered all over the ground, and several dwarf spiders were directly scrapped.

Xia Ran took the opportunity to put the knife back into its sheath, squinted her eyes and looked ahead... There is another more terrifying approaching.

Accompanied by the sound of dull footsteps, while equipped with heavy armor, the silhouette of a huge mechanical puppet equipped with a giant warhammer on its other arm gradually emerged from the steam-shielded passage...
