Half Elf Ranger

Chapter 226 A Sad Fairy Tale

"Godslayer, Astral Insight, Ferryman, Winster." Thorne calmed down his ups and downs, forced to maintain a calm expression, and repeated in his heart.

Then he immediately thought of what the goblin wizard Malvisa told him, that the camp of the astral clairvoyant was absolutely neutral.

So, just as he was about to speak, the paladin Peo, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, seemed to have regained his vitality. He got up suddenly, stopped the mysterious man Winster who was slowly walking towards the death knight's body, and raised the death knight's black hair in his hand. The lacquered holy emblem said with a firm expression:
"The good heart hidden in the deepest part of the shadow growler is crying to me, begging me to free him, so I answered his prayer and promised to give his soul a chance to redeem himself."

"A dead-headed paladin." There was a trace of displeasure in the illusory tone of the mysterious man Winster, and then he waved his hand lightly, and said coldly, "Go away!"

As soon as the words fell, the paladin Peo was locked by an invisible force, causing the whole body to maintain the movement of raising the holy emblem, unable to move at all, and then under the guidance of this energy, it floated 20 meters away.

Immediately afterwards, the mysterious man Winster continued to walk towards the death knight's body.

Thorn, who was standing not far away, first glanced at the paladin Peo who was not injured in any way, and was about to set his sights on Winster.

The moment he looked around, something that shocked him happened. The underground rivers flowing in the distance suddenly all converged together and turned into a dry riverbed, and the river water that converged immediately formed a river tens of meters high. The water column, a strong breath of negative energy that suffocated him spread out.

"boom!"

The water column gathered by the underground river burst suddenly, turning into rapid rainwater and flooding the entire underground space, followed by a hideous figure emerging from the water column.

This creepy and terrifying figure exudes the unique chaotic evil from the bottomless abyss, making the already oppressive underground passage even more gloomy and dark.

The deep darkness, the nauseating stench, and the thick poisonous mist all began to spread to the entire underground space at a speed visible to the naked eye following the appearance of the hideous figure.

Seeing this, Thorne's face changed, and he was about to turn around and flee towards the cave when a nearly invisible energy barrier suddenly enveloped him, and the darkness, stench and poisonous mist like huge waves were all isolated from the barrier.

Just as he was looking suspiciously, a shrill sound that shook his eardrums, mixed with wanton grinning, filled the entire underground space.

"Winster, die!" The ferocious figure roared, and the voice was like the echo of a ferocious beast in the deepest part of the cave.

As soon as the words fell, the terrifying figure waved its sharp claws and approached Winster in an instant.

"boom!"

The sharp claws wrapped in an unrivaled aura, and countless cold lights flashed. Winster, whose entire body was hidden in the black cloak, suddenly turned into a little light and dissipated in the air.

"Boom!"

The moment Winster's figure dissipated, the entire underground space trembled slightly, and a stone door on the rock wall rose instantly, emitting a dazzling light, which directly dispelled the deep darkness attached to the ferocious figure.

Immediately, a figure whose entire body was shrouded in a black cloak floated out of the bright stone house.

"Odyssey, the Immortal King, long time no see." The mysterious man floated out from the stone house, looked at the hideous figure, and showed a gentle smile.

"Odyssus, the undead king! Could it be that the incarnation has come?" Thorne immediately turned his gaze to the hideous figure.

Due to the dazzling light emitted from the suddenly opened stone house, the entire underground space was illuminated like daylight, so that Thorne could clearly see the incarnation of the undead king clearly.

The image of the incarnation of the undead king Otis is obviously more terrifying and impressive than ordinary sculptures.

His whole body is obscene and fat, with rubbery wrinkles, and the red skin is covered with blood-stained but dull rough hair, covering the huge body.

On the pale goat-like head, the most conspicuous are the hollow eye sockets burning with an evil yellow light, and the bloody mouth is densely covered with sharp dagger-like teeth.

When the evil eyes looked at the figure floating from the stone house, there was a hint of mockery. Two huge goat horns were bent and protruded from the temples, dripping bile and blood forever.

Thick, black bat-like wings are spread out on the back, and there is a needle-like tail spine on a long snake-like tail behind it.While his arms and hands resemble a fat human, his legs and feet resemble that of a gigantic goat.

"The remnant of the godslayer, Winster! Seeing you is like seeing a mole hiding in a moldy cave. You really don't worry about your friend, and you finally lured you out today."

The wanton grin of the undead king echoed throughout the underground space, as if it came from a deep, terrifying and empty crypt.

Thorn, who was hiding in the bunker watching the show, immediately felt the piercing scream, so much so that he jumped out of the frightened Will save. The only thing that made him thankful was that the difficulty of this save was not very high.

"Instead of sitting still, it's better to take the initiative to attack. Who is the prey and the hunter? I hope you can recognize your identity. The fattest and wretched demon lord in the bottomless abyss." Winster, who was hidden in the black cloak, floated gently into the air , said calmly.

"The remnants of pretending to be calm, without the floating city, what do you have to fight against my demon army." The empty words of the incarnation of the undead king Otis were full of mockery:
"Recalling the floating city that turned into fireworks again, I still think it is the most beautiful scenery, and there are countless... howls of dead souls!"

—— "Mysuo·Dark Sky!"

The indifferent Winster looked slightly cold, and gently waved the sleeves hidden in the large cloak.

Twin Towers Town in the middle of the night.

A solemn black tower is inserted in the very center of the town. The distorted body of the tower is like a rotten skeleton hand struggling to crawl out of the underground tomb.

At this time, the dark shadow covering the tower, which even the most dazzling sunlight can't penetrate, strangely began to surge wildly.

In a bright underground space.

The obese and wretched incarnation of the undead king Odyssey floated in mid-air, and strands of strange dark aura bound the incarnation of Odyss tightly.

"It's the breath of the Lord of the End of All Things, and you actually..." Before the incarnation of the undead king Otis could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a terrifying wave of energy waved by the indifferent Winster.

The incarnation of the undead king Otis was completely melted by the terrifying energy in the roar of anger.

With the disappearance of the avatar of Otis, the entire underground space left no trace of the disgusting stench and thick poisonous mist as if the tide was ebbing.

"Old friend, I'll take you to an extremely cold place." Winster, who was floating in mid-air, glanced at the death knight's body and sighed deeply.

Then with a light wave of his hand, the corpse and the thirteen coffins on the platform disappeared without a trace along with Winster being shrouded in the light of the magic circle.

"An extremely cold place?" Thorne whispered as he watched Winster's disappearing figure.

As the entire underground space returned to calm, the energy barrier covering Thorn's body also turned into bits of light and dissipated in the air.

"Hey, are you okay?" Thorn dragged his tired body to the paladin who was still holding up the holy emblem and asked.

"Huh?" Thorn looked at the other party suspiciously: "Can't you hear me?"

Seeing that the other party still didn't answer, Thorne waved his face again, and found that the paladin Peo didn't even blink his eyes, so he stood there and pondered for a while, then went straight to the stone that Winster had left just now. hole to go.

According to Winster's message on the first floor of the tower and the obsession of the death knight, and then the conversation between the incarnation of Otis and Winster when the battle just broke out, he roughly sorted out the general situation.

The former Twin Towers Town was called Dawn Town, and both Death Knight and Winster belonged to the guardians of this town.

However, the good times didn't last long. The whole town encountered an unknown enemy and fell into a precarious situation. As recorded in the message, the town fell.

Winster abandoned the tower and left angrily, but another guardian, the death knight, the head of the Dawn Knights, was not reconciled.

So in order to drive away the invaders, he became a fallen paladin and successfully transformed into a death knight.

And the reason why he was able to transform into a death knight is very likely to be inseparable from the undead king Odyssey.

In the end, Winster became a godslayer. In order to kill Winster, the undead king Otis used the relationship between the death knight and Winster to lay out the layout here, and then it was the so-called game in the game.

"The Lord of the End of All Things?" Thorn suddenly remembered the last words that the incarnation of Otis yelled out, his eyes were full of doubts, because he didn't know who the Lord of the End of All Things sounded very tall. .

"There is also the Church of God Killing and the Insight Organization. They must be inextricably linked with our player group." Thorn once again remembered another doubt in his heart:
"Could it be that there are really closed beta players who were also trapped in this world, then when did they appear in this world? Was it the turbulent year 300 years ago?"

Thorne walked to the stone house where Winster left with full of doubts.

With Winster's departure, the bright light emanating from the entire stone house has also dissipated, but Thorne can still clearly see any corner of the stone house.

The entire small stone house was empty, except for a stone table, without any decorations, as if it had been searched and cleaned.

Through the faint traces of activity in the room, Thorne could discover that the mysterious man named Winster should have been hiding here before he appeared.

Then he walked to the stone table and saw a page-turning handwriting book on it. From the handwriting, Thorne could find that it should have been written not long ago, and it seemed more like a deliberate message to outsiders.

So Thorne immediately walked over curiously to check:
The Toril Era, the Calendar of the Holy One, the Year of the Fire, the Month of the End of the Year, the 31st day.

At the ten-year insight conference, the plane insight proposed a god-killing plan, and the space-time insight advocated a god-creating plan.

We, who have always remained neutral, were caught in a dilemma. In the end, after failing to find a suitable candidate for the God-making plan, we launched the God-killing plan in desperation, and therefore established the God-killing Church in Sigil City.

……

"Obviously, the plan to kill God failed." With a thought, Thorne turned the notebook into a pile of ashes under his control.

After reading this message, he felt more and more that these people, like them, were a group of beta players trapped in another world.

The incarnation of the undead king Otis also said just now that their Floating Void City was hammered and exploded, and they should have suffered a terrible defeat.

Finally, when Thorne was about to leave, he suddenly noticed a wooden box covered in thick dust on the stone table.

With a look of curiosity, Thorne drew out his long sword and gently lifted the dust-covered cover with the tip of the sword. Suddenly, he found a string of exquisite necklaces lying quietly in the wooden box.

Thorne was stunned, and there was a trace of doubt in his eyes. The whole small stone house was cleaned up, except for a page of notes and a string of necklaces, which made him think that this man named Winster was not Have ulterior motives.

So Thorne picked up the necklace carefully, and found that it was a silver necklace strung together by seven dark blue gemstones. The sapphire in the middle was the most exquisite, and the other three pairs were smaller in turn. The water shone in the gemstones, Exudes crystal brilliance.

sad fairy tale

Quality: unknown

Attribute: unknown
(Note: This is a string of necklaces that will not be given away in the future. Unfortunately, the original owner has never had the courage to pick it up again, so that it has been forgotten here for a long, long time...)
I have wandered around in my dreams several times, longing to regain the old feelings, who ever thought that what I touched was actually—hands full of dust...

Producer: Winster, leave a message
……

Thorne looked at the whole small stone house with a slightly complicated expression, and walked out with a heavy heart.

"Shouldn't they be the future Arcane catastrophe?" Thorne secretly guessed.

Today's experience made him always feel that these escaped observers would have some terrifying actions in the future, which made his desire to become stronger quickly a little stronger again.

"The deer herding feast of Mara believers, the sword master's slashing of the sword in Horn Town, the ancient ritual of killing demons with a long sword, and the Bow Monastery in the Lost Star Mountains of the Northern Wilderness, the Gnolls and the hills in the Great Sword Scar Mountains The war of the giants is not over, and the greatest threat yet: the Horuk hobgoblin tribe."

Thorne was thinking about his plans after leaving as he walked, feeling that he still had a lot to do in the future.

At this time, he noticed the paladin Peo who had resumed his actions, his eyes flashed, and he remembered something, so he walked up to him and said: "I know where the holy city of the dragon descendants is 'Jimbatur City'. If you are interested, find me in the upper part of Fallstown."

After finishing speaking, he left the dragon-born paladin who was in shock, and disappeared into the darkness alone.

"Shadow Growler, I can feel your kind heart yearning for salvation, I will definitely help you! I swear in the name of the God of Justice!"

Paladin Peo glanced at the empty stone platform, a flash of determination flashed in his pale red eyes, and then disappeared into the darkness with his limping body.
