The knight in the abyss

Chapter 923

The devil's banquet is not a pleasing scene, especially when the food on the table belongs to the same species as you, it is easy to make you wonder if one day you will be served in such a big way .

Of course, that's just the reaction of normal people, and in the abyss, abnormality is the mainstream.Bloody mercenaries continue to join this gluttonous feast, releasing their hunger and desire side by side with the demons.In Lancelot's spiritual perception, he could clearly feel that some kind of strange energy was flowing into the bodies of those mercenaries, making their aura significantly stronger, but at what cost?

Maybe life, maybe soul, maybe nothing, Lancelow didn't want to know.

On the outskirts of the banquet hall, there were many people who just watched from a distance and didn't intend to join in. These people provided good cover for Lancelow and his partners.

The banquet was getting more and more lively, the stomachs of the demons were like a bottomless pit, they ate extremely fast, and kept urging the Quasimo waiters, who had to bring up uncooked 'ingredients' , but this did not affect the interest of the demons at all.In addition to food, drinking is also indispensable. Bucket after bucket of strong wine produced in Shedakra was served. This kind of poison, which is very popular among demons, was quickly consumed, making the scene even more lively.

Lancelot noticed that the demons tried to pretend to be human at first, eating with their hands and a knife and fork, but as time went on, they became more and more difficult to hide. When the raw food was served on the table, many demons had been completely released Out of instinct, he buried his head directly on the food, biting like hungry beasts.

At the same time, little Isa kept reporting the progress of the three female dragons to Lancelot through the telepathic connection—to put it bluntly, they behaved very amateurishly, turning around like headless flies in the Oasis Castle Go, but I still can't find the way to the top floor. If there is no order from Lancelow, little Isa would like to show up to show them the way.

However, the dragon ladies may not be qualified thieves, but they are definitely the top hunters. Although they couldn't find the way, they didn't let anyone escape.Whether it was the ordinary Berserker guards or the well-equipped captain of the Bewitching Demon, these unlucky guys had no way to fight back against the three young girls with extremely deceptive appearances.

No enemy could slip away from the female dragons' noses, and little Isa took care of those who didn't come into their sight.Coupled with the blue dragon Tatiana's keen perception of magic, those early warning agencies hidden in the corners were also disarmed one by one. known.

Although it is said that as long as little Isa helps, the dragon ladies can find the gate of the treasure house immediately, but Lancelow has not made a decision for a long time.The reason is simple, the development of the situation is a bit too ideal, but it makes him feel that something is wrong.The middle-level and above demons in the city of Oasis Castle are almost here, and more than half of the officers stationed here by Graz are present. Looking at their drunken appearance, they seem to be in the middle of a war and only a few hundred miles away from the front line. ?
If Lancelot was the commander of the devil, he would be sorry for the organizer of the banquet if he didn't take the opportunity to launch a surprise attack, not to mention that there is a permanent portal connected to Azgrat, which is crucial to the devil's side. supply line.Lancelow had no choice but to have doubts. Either Molo was an astonishing idiot, or this was simply a trap. Molo or Grazte actually had a backup, just waiting for the devils to appear.

Under such circumstances, Lancelot naturally didn't dare to act rashly, but at this moment, Karalin, who had been keeping an eye on the ground with his secret eyes, suddenly made a discovery.

'The devils are coming. 'Karalin announced to everyone directly through the mind link,'The attack will begin immediately. '

'How many are there? Lancelot immediately came to the spirit, "What is the composition of the army?" '

"The number is definitely thousands, and less than half of them are beard demons. There are a large number of steel demons and ice demons. I saw a deep hell fiend. It should be the commander of the army..." Kara Lin stopped suddenly, " The screen is gone, I think the arcane eye is destroyed, you know, high-level demons have true vision. '

"Enough is enough, we now know that the devils are coming for real..." Lancelot patted the scholar on the back, "You release the magic eye again, right now." '

"But the moving speed of the secret magic eye is very slow, it will take at least a quarter of an hour from here to the bottom of the corpse pit..."

'No, leave your magic eyeballs here. Lancelot turned around, "And it's time for us to go, go to Molo's lair and wait for him to come back..."

It is not far from the town square where the banquet was held to the lord's castle. According to the route surveyed in advance, everyone arrived at the gate of the castle in less than 10 minutes. The huge explosion, presumably the devils have already started to do it.

According to Kara Lin's report, it is difficult to see from Molo's performance that it really expected this. The male succubus didn't know the situation at first, and didn't even know who was attacking Oasis Castle until a The Vlomo scouts from the corpse pit (it looks like Grazte's subordinates) arrived at the banquet, and the male succubi hurriedly ordered all the guests to meet the enemy, as if there was no one left behind look.

At this point, Lancelot finally made up his mind. He told little Isa that it was time to give some guidance to the hungry female dragons.

The guard at the gate of the castle had disappeared, and Lancelow and his party entered the castle without any hindrance.Compared with the castle in Shuangqiao, Moluo's lair is slightly smaller, but the interior decoration is completely different.Tijana's castle has a distinct dwarven style, with strong columns, rough stone floors and cold metal countertops everywhere, which is hard to think of a stunning succubus lord; while Molo's castle is With exquisite furniture, comfortable cushions and purple curtains, there is a secret door or secret passage every five steps, more like some kind of top-level gold-selling cave, no wonder the dragon ladies can never find the way to the treasure house road.

Following the marks left by little Isa in advance, everyone did not go around in circles.They ran quickly through the audience hall, turned into the corridor at the end of the hall, passed through a series of rooms with curtains hanging from the ceiling and fresh corpses under their feet, and then a spiral staircase leading to the second floor. The air still smelled of sulfur around the corner, another upward spiral staircase...

Suddenly, the gate of Mo Luo's treasure house appeared in front of everyone's eyes. The original solid metal gate had become a piece of broken iron all over the place. Obviously, the design did not consider the situation of being breathed by three different types of dragon's breath at the same time. .And behind the opened treasure house gate, three pairs of vigilant longan eyes were staring at a group of people who appeared from behind the stairs. As long as there was a word wrong, they would immediately let them enjoy the same treatment as the treasure house gate.

"Don't be nervous, ladies." Lancelot took off his mask, "It's me."

"It turned out to be you, Sir Lancelot." Tatiana with blue hair replied coldly, "We would be happy to see you again in another occasion, but we didn't invite you to this place... "

"Aren't you invited too?" Lancelot shrugged, "However, I think we can cooperate. What do you want are those treasures? No problem, it's all yours, we don't take anything .”

"Then, what do you want?" the green dragon Iserie asked in a low voice.

"The owner of these treasures." Lancelot narrowed his eyes slightly, "I want to spin my blade in that male succubus' chest, look into its eyes, and tell it that this is the price of betraying Shuangqiao Town , if it comes back to life, get ready to experience the same pain again, and next time, and next time, until it's gone."

"The male succubus has a terrifying bodyguard." Iserie reminded, "A wolf snake demon."

"I know." Lancelow nodded, "I'll deal with it. During that time, I hope you can help keep Molo here. You don't need to defeat it, just drag it until I get rid of the wolf snake demon. It shouldn't be a problem for you, right?"

"Can you really defeat the wolf snake demon?" The blue dragon Tatiana interjected again, "Its spells and venom..."

"You should all know my strength."

"Of course, Sir Lancelot, we all remember." Iserie raised her hand to signal her impatient companion not to intervene, "But one matter is one matter, and doing your favor requires taking extra risks. Is that good for us?"

"The advantage is that you can have more time and pretend to take away more treasures." Lancelot spread his hands helplessly, "Listen, I don't want to waste your time anymore, it would be best if you can help later, It’s okay if you think it’s too dangerous and want to leave. But when I kill the owner of these treasures, they will all be mine. Well, hurry up and do your work, we have to make some preparations..."

After speaking, Lancelot ignored it, and led his companions into the treasure house directly. They did not take anything, they just scattered among the mountains of gold coins and hid them, leaving the three dragon girls looking at each other in dismay.

"Hey! Don't be dazed, hurry up and work!" Brutal couldn't help shouting at them, "We are assassins, you are the robbers!"

The dwarf's words awakened the three of them. They looked at each other, as if they had made up their minds, nodded to each other, and then lay down on the ground together.After a burst of silver smoke and flashes, the three young girls full of exotic styles disappeared, replaced by three majestic and imposing dragons, from their graceful figure, neat scales and healthy teeth From the looks of it, these dragons should have had a good life recently. If Lancelow hadn't known in advance, most people would never have noticed that there were still traces of iron chains on their bodies.

"Then, sir..." The green dragon Iserie raised her slender neck, "I'm sorry."

Lancelot himself did a lot of work of robbing the lord. Although the specific process is different, it can basically be boiled down to a basic process: pick up the treasure and put it in one of his containers until it is full or Must leave.He thought that the dragons probably followed the same process, but he soon realized how his imagination was limited by the differences between species.

The giant dragons opened their mouths, swallowing the gold coins and precious stones that piled up into hills like whales sucking water.

"What are you doing here?" Brutal's eyelids almost fell off, "Can you still eat it?"

The dragons didn't have time to pay attention to him at all, and continued to eat at a rate of at least [-] gold coins per minute, but Lancelot could still tell that these huge winged lizards were really happy to eat, as if they were fed by anglers. Like a cat that caught a big fish.

"I've heard some archmages say before that raising a dragon is very expensive, and it can only be raised until it's infancy at most..." Kararin nudged Aramiel who was staying with him, "Now I understand why."

"How amazing..." The elf priest looked at the scene in front of him intoxicated, "I only know that some ancient dragons will eat all their treasures at the end of their lives, and that is part of their death ritual..."

"Death ritual?" The scholar asked curiously, "Dragon still has death ritual?"

"Dragon can live for a long time, but they are not immortal. Of course they have death rituals, just like our mortal funerals." Sune's priest shrugged, "They are also immortal, and the elves still know about some giant dragons. It's a secret, but it's just for understanding, no one knows what the specific function of this death ceremony is, it's just speculated that it has something to do with where their souls go after death..."

The dragons devoured the gold very quickly, but Molo's hoard was still too large, and it looked like it would take at least an hour to eat it all.Moreover, although dragons have a natural sensitivity to magic, there are too many magic items here, and it is difficult to distinguish whether an item has an early warning prohibition.In less than 10 minutes, Lancelot sensed a strange wave of magic.

First, a bright blue magical full-length mirror suddenly appeared in the hall. In the mirror was the owner of the treasure house, the lord of Oasis Castle, the male succubus Molo.From the background behind him, Lancelot could see the battle situation in the corpse pit: there were soaring fires everywhere, and it seemed that even the stones were burning, and the demons were besieging the demons guarding the portal. There are new demons rushing out, and the outer demons are storming the defense line of the demons, it is simply a big, melting donut.

With just such a brief glance, Lancelot could still see that the devils were gaining the upper hand.The defense line of the inner circle of the portal is constantly retreating, and only a six-armed snake is holding on there, while the defense of the outer circle of devils is like iron, blocking all the demons back wave after wave.The wolf snake demon who had been with Mo Luo before was fighting fiercely with the devil's pit demon, and it seemed that it was difficult to tell the winner in a short time, while the male succubi himself was waving a slender steel whip, urging More soldiers under his command went into battle.

"Thief!" Molo looked at his treasure house through the magic window, and screamed angrily, "How dare you!!!"

The three female dragons turned to look at it, but said nothing - because their mouths were stuffed.

"Hahaha, okay, you dare to break ground on my head..." The male succubus seemed to be mad with anger, "Look out!"

Mo Luo took out a weird magic ball and activated it immediately.The four walls of the treasury where everyone was located suddenly lit up with light blue phantoms, covering the treasury like a cage.

"Hmph, this is a dimensional lock, don't even think about using magic to escape..." the male succubus smiled sinisterly, "Wait, watch me stretch your tendons, peel your skin, and hang your heads on mine." In the lobby..."

The most taciturn black dragon raised his head, and let out a dark brown breath toward the ceiling. Suddenly, a huge hole appeared above everyone's heads, which was definitely big enough for a dragon to fly out of it.

The black dragon turned his head and showed a ferocious smile at the owner of the treasure house, with the glitter of gold faintly visible between his teeth.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"

The magic mirror disappeared, and the next second, the sound of chaotic footsteps came from the corridor.The lord of Oasis Fort, the recent traitor Mo Luo, brought three teams of well-equipped (exaggerated) Berserker Demon Guards to appear at the entrance of the treasure house.Lancelot noticed that the wolf snake who had been following the male succubus did not appear, which was the best of the expected situations.

Moluo yelled and ordered his subordinates to attack the dragons, but he didn't intend to join them.

Compared with the Berserk, the strength of an adult dragon is of course crushing, but Tanar'ri has always been known for its tenacious vitality, and Berserk is the representative of it.Once a huge dragon is entangled by these guys, it will be in danger like a lion besieged by hyenas, but with the pride of dragons, how can it escape without a fight?
The black dragon and the blue dragon raised their heads at the same time, and in the next second, two terrifying torrents of energy spewed out from their mouths.Lancelot had seen the breaths of red dragons and white dragons before, but their breaths were cone-shaped, while the breaths of black dragons and green dragons were linear. On two straight lines with a width of about five feet, the strong acid spit out by the black dragon The lightning spewed by the blue dragon rushed across, destroying everything in its path, and finally created two large holes in the wall of the treasure house.

Of course, those Berserker Demons who were unfortunate enough to suffer from two different dragon breaths would not survive, but those who only suffered from one of the dragon breaths were only seriously injured and did not lose their combat effectiveness.The berserkers charged forward bravely, trying to get in close before the dragon's breath recharged, impressing their lords with greataxes and spiked clubs.

At this time, the green dragon Yiseri made a move.Of course, there was enough energy in her stomach to breathe out, but the green dragon's breath was poison damage, and it had almost no effect on demons, so Iserie did not join the chorus of her kind just now.However, as the most cunning true dragons, what green dragons rely on most is never their own breath, but their clever mind and accurate judgment.

The moment the lightning and strong acid dissipated, the ground split violently, and a large number of razor vines quickly drilled out of it.This nuisance of the outer planes has sharp, blade-like leaves and sturdy stems that are tangled together like ropes.Razorvine has no intelligence to lure the dumbest fool into its leaves, but green dragons summon razorvines that exceed five feet in height and width, a barricade that immediately cripples berserkers. situation.

The method of the green dragon is not only that, it also summoned a thick fog around the nearest Berserker, and the next second, the Berserker was convinced that the Green Dragon was his best friend, and the annoying razor vine was on it. Part in front of you to make way for an old friend.The Berserk walked forward unprepared, where the green dragon was welcoming him with a smile on his face.

However, before reaching the smiling face, two dragon claws, one black and one blue, fell simultaneously, tearing the enchanted demon into pieces.Meanwhile, Esserie has her next victim locked down.

While the giant dragon was dealing with those Berserkers, Lancelot also sent a signal to his companions to act through a mind link.Of course, Lancelow was still in charge of the main attack. Before anyone else could do it, he tried to use the shadow jump to launch a surprise attack.

An unexpected situation happened, the human knight failed to blend into the shadows, as if a transparent wall blocked his movement.Lancelow immediately realized that it was the dimensional lock that Molo had just created.The essence of the shadow jump is phase movement through the shadow plane, and the dimensional lock can block all teleportation within the effective range, including cross-plane movement, so his shadow jump will fail.

His companions were still faithfully carrying out his orders. Brutal roared and jumped onto the top of a golden mountain, and threw his own warhammer at the lord of Oasis Castle, while Karaline and Aramiel each cast slow spells. And Silence - As a demon lord, Molo certainly has strong magic resistance, but he is not completely immune. As long as one of the spells of the scholar and the priest takes effect, it can weaken the opponent's combat effectiveness very well.

The male succubus moved his body slightly, allowing the dwarf's warhammer to pass by it, smashing a big hole in the floor. At the same time, he was very lucky to resist the two spells targeting him.At this moment, Mo Luo realized that someone was ambushing him here. In the next second, a flash of light approaching at an extremely fast speed made his pupils shrink suddenly. The lord of Oasis Castle flapped his wings fiercely, and the whole person flew back like a flea, dodging At the same time as that fatal sword, he also saw the appearance of the comer.

"It's you?!" Molo recognized Lancelot, "Are you Tijana's concubine? Why are you here?"

"Of course I came to settle accounts with you." Lancelot pulled out the half-handed sword that had been stuck more than a foot into the floor, "I guess, you didn't expect this day to come so soon, did you?"

"Only you?" The male succubus stared at the human knight gloomily, "And those three dragons?"

"No, not counting the three dragons." Lancelot shook his head and walked towards Moluo, "It's up to me."
