Just being a dark elf in Warhammer

Chapter 556 407 Ghost in the Painting

In addition to the Tomb War Flag, there are many other flags of various kinds.

On the ground were several Screaming Battle Flags, common among vampire armies. This type of battle flag was so magical that even the bravest warriors would tremble at the thought of fighting an army of vampires carrying Screaming Battle Flags. . The shrill cries that often echo from this tattered battle flag convey an unspeakable fear, evoking the horrors of war and the mourning of the wounded and dying.

The humans who heard the screams all begged the battle flag to spare the torture of their souls, for they could hear their comrades calling out to them, screaming in agony, begging for their souls to be released from the pain, and this was also The origin of the name of the Screaming Battle Flag.

The Blood Dragon Knights have their own unique flag. Well, not all knights can use long-range weapons like the Black Knights of Morr and the Pistol Cavalry. Usually knights have a contemptuous attitude towards ranged weapons, and the Blood Dragon Knights are no exception. Just like they despise mortal life, this disgust and contempt is reflected in the magic-woven banner of Blood Castle.

It is said that this blood castle flag can resist any type of long-range attack, but that is just a rumor. In the face of higher-level magic arrows, this flag did not play the described role. The arrows of Enil's remote master were immune to the magic of the flag, and the arrows accurately hit the charging Blood Dragon Knight.

A tattered flag that was green and engraved with the filth of time was thrown messily on the ground. Like a mysterious magic summoning ceremony, a strange green light emitted from the entire ground. Darkus didn't think that this tattered flag not only caused people's heads to shine with a green light that could not be obtained in this world, but also spread a kind of fear. Of course, the premise was to stare at this hell battle flag.

Even more magical than the Hell Battle Flag is the Hellfire Flag. This flag not only emits green light, but also enchants the weapon of the holder of the battle flag, causing the weapon to burn with magical green flames, which is even more green. However, this flag, like the Hell War Flag, is now thrown to the ground indiscriminately.

The same goes for other battle flags, which are doomsday flags that allow undead warriors to gain strength and regain their feet after being defeated by the enemy and join the battle. The banner of the Death Legion that makes the undead warriors heavier and more difficult to defeat. Vlad was unwilling to expend his own strength to replenish his army, so he necromancer crafted a family banner, the Banner of Duncanhof, which was used to maintain the strength of the Templars of Duncanhof.

These flags, endowed with various meanings and magic, were thrown on the ground indiscriminately, forming a chaotic scene. They were once the pride of Vlad and his army, a symbol of strength and glory. However, now they are left in the dust and have lost their former glory.

But this was only temporary. The intervention of Darkus and the elves wiped out all the vampires in the first vampire war. With the main force of the vampire army wiped out, these flags became out-of-print in a sense and were lost. Such a shame here.

Darkus prepared to use the waste and brought these flags back to Nagaroth. After Ersin Alvin inspected them, he became no longer as conservative as before. He believed that education should be carried out in Nagaroth. Carry out basic education for underage children, focusing on sports and social practice, supplemented by cultural courses.

In the process of rebuilding Naggarond, Darkos is preparing to build an open museum, aiming to display the history and culture of the elves to the public, allowing the Druchi to understand the glories and challenges of the past, and also to educate the future. The next generation inherits the values ​​and spirit of elves. With a hobby of building landmarks, he plans to build the museum into a breathtaking landmark building, integrating classical and modern design elements, making the museum itself both ornamental and learning, providing a great opportunity for current Druchi and future elves. Provides an opportunity to fully understand oneself.

In the museum, elves can see a variety of exhibits, ranging from ancient artworks to the latest technological inventions, from historical documents to trophies obtained in wars, everything is included. These flags will be used as waste, as witnesses and trophies of the war, and placed in an exhibition area in the museum, the unique vampire area, becoming part of the exhibition.

Perhaps in the future, the few vampires who are hiding in Tibet can visit Nagaros or Nagaris, visit museums, learn about the past of vampires, and experience the simple folk customs and warm hospitality of Druchi. If they have the opportunity, they can even knock on the door. A clock or something, as long as you don't break the glass and take away the exhibits inside.

These flags will be carefully protected in the future, and each flag will be given a unique story, telling the glory and challenges of Adreze believers. For Druch children, the all-encompassing museum will be an important resource for learning. In the museum, they can observe these witnesses of history up close, understand the cruelty and courage of war, and feel the true tradition and past glory of Druch. This will become a precious experience for them as they grow up, stimulate their interest in history and culture, and cultivate their sense of responsibility and mission for the future.

In addition to these flags, Darkus is ready to take away the weapons that have not been claimed, and the iconic armor will also be selectively taken away.

Volachi did not wear plate armor like those Blood Dragon Knights who were once Imperial Knights, but instead wore a piece of Nehekhara-style mail. The mail was filled with blood, and as one of the most powerful warriors of all time, he incorporated the blood of his victims into the mail, forming a protective aura composed of the souls of the damned. However, this halo is the same as the arrow defense halo on the Blood Castle flag. It does not take effect when encountering a stronger force at the critical moment. The God Halberd in Selire's hand penetrated the protective halo with the flashlight fully turned on. , penetrated his mail armor.

In addition to Volachi's mail, there are also some iconic armors. The black enamel Armor of Night can envelop the wearer in an impenetrable cloud of darkness, but this armor can only be worn on foot. Similarly, Darkos also brought Vlad's armor that was pierced by wooden stakes from the city of Altdorf. He will take away these iconic armors. As for the others, let the wind of Qianmen blow the earth...

After allocating weapons and armor that no elves wanted, there were only some odds and ends left, such as accessories, staffs, and Holy Grails. Of course, apart from these, what caught Darkus' attention the most was a portrait.

"Mona Lisa?" Darkus murmured, focusing most of his attention on the portrait. He stared at the portrait intently, with a hint of curiosity and confusion in his eyes. He felt that this portrait was somewhat similar to the Mona Lisa's smile, but the painting style of this portrait was relatively more evil, with an evil aura, as if it contained endless secrets.

"She looks more like a member of the von Carstein family than a Lahmian family." Genevieve, like Darkus, spent most of her time admiring the painting and listening to After Darkus murmured, she explained that although she had no idea who the Mona Lisa was.

There is no doubt that this is a painting about a female vampire. From the signature, Darkus discovered words written in Tyrell.

"Ms. Zmada? A portrait of Ms. Zmada?"

There is a story about Ms. Zmada's portrait. Just as Darkus and Genevieve guessed, it is a painting about a female vampire. This lady is different from other vampires. She has a very magical property. Her mansion can serve as a vampire's refuge during the day, allowing the vampire who is afraid of the sun to walk in the sun.

Vampires are usually unable to see themselves in the mirror, but they often have a vanity beyond mortal vanity and sometimes become obsessed with their own image. So, the famous Tyrell art master was hired by the von Carstein family to paint a portrait of Lady Zmada, for which he was duly rewarded, except for this and a few other paintings by a group of The mob piled his paintings around him and set fire to the pyre, where he and his paintings were burned in a blaze of flames.

After the painting was completed, the vampires gave the painting magic, making Ms. Zmada's expression more vivid and mysterious. During the day, the vampire can pass through the empty frame of the painting. After entering the frame, the vampire will appear in the form of a motionless portrait and wait there until dusk appears. If the painting is destroyed, the vampire in the painting will will be killed.

This painting, like Vlad's wolf-headed cane, was captured in the vampire camp. Now there is only the mysterious and beautiful Ms. Zmada in the painting, unlike horror movies and novels. Suddenly a vampire popped up to give Darkus a chill while admiring the painting, adding another insignificant achievement to the elves.

Although Dacus did not understand the background of the painting, he had the ability to appreciate beautiful things. He plans to put the painting away, take it back to Nagaroth, and put it in a museum where there is no shadow at all. Maybe this painting will attract visitors to visit like the smile of Mona Lisa?

It's a pity that the painting about Vlad and Isabella is still in Duncanhof Castle, not in the vampire camp. What's even more pity is that Darkus knows that Duncanhof Castle will become darker as Conrad becomes the second head of the von Carstein family, and these old-era things will also follow Fra... The fall of De and Isabella no longer remains. Otherwise, he could commemorate his fallen friend in another form.

Soon, the distribution of trophies entered the final stage, and a bunch of bits and pieces were placed on the long table.

Baine picked out a simple-looking piece, and it looked like a black gold wristband handed down from the ancient Nehekhara period. This gorgeous and simple wristband looks inconspicuous. It can be hidden between armor and gloves and worn on the wrist. Although it is inconspicuous, it has a very magical effect. It can deflect arrows, darts, bullets, and even... In Colonia's words, if you are lucky, you can even deflect the roaring cannonballs.

After hearing this, Darkus exclaimed inwardly that the effect of this black gold wristband was comparable to Lilith's foot washing water.

The black talisman, an evil gem, has the function of capturing the surrounding Shasu wind, and storing and accumulating the Shasu wind for the wearer to use. The long table is filled with various black talismans. There are many necromancers following the army of the dead. Black talismans are considered standard equipment. Elf spellcasters have no interest in this kind of rubbish. Making energy stones is a prominent skill of elves, and high-level spellcasters also have more powerful star stones in their hands.

However, garbage also has value. There are many sorceresses in Naggaroth who learn death magic. In the future magic academy, these black talismans of different quality and shapes can be used as consumables similar to textbooks. They are just something to be carried away in a bag anyway.

The black talisman is just an appetizer. There is also a talisman called Lekni in the vampire system. This talisman can allow the holder to release the beast power lurking deep in the soul and increase the holder's speed. This style of amulet is extremely suitable for vampires, because there is potential beast power deep in the vampire's soul. The same amulet is also suitable for Druch who is intoxicated on the edge of the abyss. After checking and confirming that there were no problems, these jewelry were taken away one after another. These jewelry will be used as explosive items when necessary.

In addition to these junk items, there are also a few rare items, a Lahmian scarlet gem that is unknown to the members of the von Carstein family. The reason why we know that the gem is Lahmia is because there is a huge emblem on the gem, and this gem is also very targeted. It can protect the holder from the vagaries of the wind of magic, and can be better hidden in the crowd. , but this gem needs to be nourished by contaminated blood.

No one claims this gem, not the magic-friendly elves, nor Genevieve, who is also a sister of Lamia. In the end, this gem was preserved, and it was inevitable to bring it back to Nagaroth. As for whether it would be placed in a museum or used as a teaching aid, that would be decided at that time.

Compared with the Lahmian Scarlet Gem, the Blood Gem is a bit more evil. It is an ancient relic from ancient Nehekhara. In Darkus' view, the Blood Gem should be favored by Kane's followers, because this gem is very dangerous and evil. The gem will transfer the wounds of the holder to the enemy. This is the evil side of the gem. . But everything has a problem, there is a probability of transferring the wound. Once the transfer is not successful, the gem holder will suffer huge damage, such as the whole scene of exploding to death.

In the end, Darkus Mao got this gem that no one claimed. Perhaps this gem should be given to his relative in Hal Ganxi? Although there are several generations between him and that relative, they are still close relatives, and they have only met once. But as a junior, he still has to do his best, but he hasn't figured out how to use it yet.

The only useful Ring of Night was taken away by Hermara, who was good at using shadow magic. This ring was magical, but that was all. The magic gems on the ring could create new things around the holder. A pitch black cloud, used to enhance the magic barrier. The reason why I say it is just that, is because this effect can be achieved with magic, but as an important participant in the battle of Altdorf outside the city, we can't let people take nothing. Saying it will have a bad impact. Not conducive to unity.

In addition to the blood gem, Darkos also took away the obsidian amulet worn by Vlad. This amulet was magical and made of pitch-black obsidian. It would help the wearer deflect incoming magic, and even Deflect enemy magic weapon strikes. In his opinion, his behavior is to pile up magic resistance. He has many similar items, such as the Kotech Ring he first obtained, the ring given to him by Malekith, and the Pulan Octagon Medal obtained from Malus. Bits and pieces of objects accompanied him all the way, allowing him to survive many difficult battles.

However, Darkus didn't have a system. He didn't know if these items had superimposed effects, so he piled up a 99% immunity magic effect. He can only do as much as possible. Anyway, he has no system, and there is no so-called item limit. If necessary, he can wear all the rings on his ten fingers.

After the talismans and the like are distributed, it enters the crown stage.

The first one to shine was a cursed crown with an extremely ferocious shape that was twisted and nauseating to look at. According to Colonia, the wearer of this crown will draw rejuvenating energy from the soul imprisoned in the crown, but More often than not, the eternal wail of the soul will overwhelm the mind and lead to complete madness.

The second one to make a shining debut is the Wailing Helmet. This corrupted artifact is carved with the screaming face of a tormented soul. However, unlike the Cursed Crown, this helmet is more about spreading fear. The helmet will continue to Emits a bloodcurdling wail that strikes fear into enemies around the wearer.

The third one that makes a shining debut is the Helm of Commandment. This helmet is different from the previous two. Judging from its shape, it should be an artifact from the ancient Lemian era. This tattered helmet can inject the wearer's consciousness into the dead, increasing the power of the helmet. The dead, turning the dead into powerful warriors with keen senses.

But these three helmets are of no use to the elves... members of the Order don't need them, they have better choices, and spellcasters don't take this path.

As the distribution of trophies continued, there were fewer and fewer trophies on the table. Except for two large cups, there were only a few staffs left.

Capamon Staff, a rough and ancient staff, holds a gem that shines with purple light. Kapamon comes from Arabi and is a powerful magician who masters the wind of Shash. He does not know how he fell into the hands of a vampire. The maker of the Novarte Scepter encountered a terrible force when using the scepter and killed himself. However, the scepter that can control the dead has been preserved intact. In addition, there are some strange things, such as a staff with a flaming eye socket on the top of the skull, and the jaw of the skull constantly making rattling and gnashing sounds.

These evil magic staffs were also not claimed by any spellcasters, so they were simply packed away and asked to be taken back to Nagaroth by Aijirethe on his return trip. In Darkus' opinion, the flaming death stick has a strong curiosity-seeking attribute. With proper treatment, the detonation effect of the skull can be eliminated and then placed in a museum for visitors to see.

In the end, there are two Holy Grails, one is the Blood Holy Grail of Wallach Harken, and the other is Isabella's Basri Blood Holy Grail.

The Holy Grail of Blood first appeared in the era when Wallach occupied the Blood Castle. It was used to taunt the Holy Grail Knights on the other side of the Gray Mountains. It was filled with the blood of his most respected opponents. As time went by, there were more and more blood styles in the cup. , the blood of knights, battle priests and witch hunters around the Gray Mountains was mixed together.

It is said to be the Holy Grail, but it is very big, just like the championship trophy of a certain league S game. Not to mention the size, it is also very heavy. It is very difficult for a normal person to lift it with one hand. The Holy Grail has a magical effect, it can cure vampires who drink the blood in the cup, or it can be simply used as a weapon, a very powerful blunt instrument. The magic flame will burn and jump around the cup, but this flame will not harm the user. By.

Compared with Wallach's Blood Holy Grail, Isabella's Basri Blood Holy Grail is unremarkable. It looks like an exquisite cup used by imperial nobles, but this cursed cup contains the treasures of many unfortunate humans. Just one sip of the essence of life can give Isabella new strength.

It is also useless. Maybe the witches of Kane will be interested in these two things, but the problem is that they are not present. In the end, these two cups, one large and one small, will be brought back to Nagaroth. Darkus had no idea of ​​giving it to that relative. He planned to put it in a museum after everything was over.

After dividing the spoils, Darkus chatted with Egerethe for a while. He ordered Egerethe to count the veterans distributed among the various fear lords and families after returning to Naggaroth, mainly to count the military service. Years of service, place of service, identity background, resume during service, whether he had landed in Ulthuan with the Druchi army hundreds of years ago, etc.

There is a reason why this Aegirese could stay under Malekith's nose for so long. Before the final farewell, he gave Darkus a very thick bound volume. In this bound volume, he maximized his value. The bound volume contained a lot of information that Darkus urgently needed, such as the list of Asur who visited Ersin Alvin. In addition to a large In addition to the list, the bound book is like a bid document, with one or more pages for each visitor, recording the identity and resume. Finally, there is some subjective intelligence analysis, analyzing the personality and potential potential. Political leanings, etc.

After getting it, Darkus took a rough look at it. He was very satisfied with the contents of this bound volume and the work done by Aigiresser. This was what he urgently needed next. With this bound volume, combined with the information he had before his appearance, he could carry out the so-called conspiracy of thousands of miles. In his opinion, planning a thousand miles requires intelligence and a clear understanding of the dynamics of things. Counting a ball with two eyes is purely prophetic or nonsense. A blind cat will kill a mouse.

In addition, there are some newly added contents in the bound volume, which mainly revolve around the political dynamics and personnel changes in Ulthuan, about which Darkos captured very important information. He knew that the seeds he had planted before were about to bear fruit.

Although Aijerese didn't say anything, he said everything. Aegireth is the noun for Malekith's spy chief, just like Credan, just like the commander of the Royal Guards, etc., it is a noun. Before becoming Aigirather, he was a fear lord. Darkus understands history. There are too many intelligence chiefs who did not end well in history. If necessary, he can name these names like the names of dishes.

Dakoos knew that this was Aigiresse's reciprocation, so that he could say a word to Aigiresse when necessary. Working as an errand for Malekith was what the Druchis dreamed of, but this was not the dream. Any good thing, especially when it doesn't go well, rarely fails to reap the good fruits. Egerethe hoped that he could help protect him from being killed by Malekith at the critical moment, or allow Egerethe to go further at the critical moment.

After the team packed up, they set out on the road without stopping. A large number of elves would follow Darkus and continue to the south. The other small branch, Druch, returned north under the leadership of Enil, who returned to Lauren Loren to report his work, and embarked on the journey back to Nagaroth. A doomsday anvil and a ball of metal compressed by the wind of Qianmen were left there for the humans who came here to look for them the next day.

Asperon was as lucky as ever. He found a relatively valuable weapon in the pile of rubbish. He chose a long gun, a long gun similar to the shape of a cross gun. This long gun was given It has a certain kind of legend, with admirable accuracy, and can hit wherever the heart points. It is said that the target can be found even in the dark night, but he still knows that the rifle he got as a toy and placed on the saddle has this magical effect.

"Little bean sprouts."

"Am I strong?"

"Little bean sprouts."

"Am I great?"

"What a great guy! I haven't seen you for a few days, why have you gained weight again?"

Facing the big guy's provocation and claiming credit, Darkus did not praise the big guy. Instead, he quickly launched a weak counterattack as usual. His slaps kept hitting the big guy's lizard armor. , except for making a crisp collision sound and causing some pain to his hand, it did not cause any additional effects. After playing around for a while, with the roar of the big guy, the team officially embarked on the journey south.

"Interesting, interesting, he is actually here too. I thought he was studying martial arts and magic with Beranal in the White Tower of Hos." Darkus, who was riding on the back of the big guy, was flipping through the bound books. After reaching one of the pages, he was stunned. On this page, he saw a very familiar name. However, if you think about it carefully, the Kingdom of Yiris, as one of the sea-opening factions, will definitely send a representative, but that person is not a representative, but more of a follower.

After Darkus muttered, he turned a few more pages, and one page attracted his attention again. Then he turned his head and looked at Belloda, who was communicating with Franais.

After Belloda felt Darkus' gaze, he smiled at Darkus, and then communicated with Franais again.

After exiting the Forest of Dragons, the elves were attracted by a figure in the sky. A red dragon was spreading its wings in the sky, flying to the south of Rickland, and finally disappeared in the thick clouds.

"Looks like we have to hurry up. It's our first official meeting and it's not polite to keep people waiting." (End of Chapter)
