Elden: Ring of Calamity

Chapter 119 Raglan

The Rodel Underground Waterway was first built in the 4th year of the Golden Calendar, and it continued to deepen with the expansion of the Golden Kingdom in the following ten years. A bottomless dark world.

Most of its designers were top scholars in the initial stage of the Golden Dynasty, while its builders were mixed craftsmen who served as the main force of the dynasty's development at the same time. More than half of the former followed the war king Ge Fulei to the south of Ningmgfu, and were eventually exiled to Beyond the sea of ​​fog, the latter has become a victim of the struggle between old and new legalism, and has long since disappeared in the dust of time.

These intricate historical reasons directly lead to the extreme lack of understanding of the world under their feet by the current people of gold.Although the nobles built a series of underground passages and a network of crystal balls based on the major arenas, they still knew nothing about the core area where the Sons of Omen lived and the deeper parts of the underground waterway.

In order to facilitate the holding of the battle ceremony, they simply divided the world into 32 areas, and the closer to the core area, the larger the number.

The most central districts 29 to 32 are the territory of the children of evil omens. The area here is almost equal to the sum of all the external areas. Due to the lack of crystal ball coverage, this place is a complete "dark zone" to the outside world. For many years, this area has naturally become a forbidden area for all teams participating in the battle festival.

After Lucia and his party bypassed the 25th area where the Duoris representative team was located, it took another four hours to pass through the darkness and arrive at the meeting point agreed with Meng Gete and Meng Ge brothers.It was an abandoned warehouse at the junction of districts 29 and 28. Menger deliberately destroyed all the lighting facilities nearby, completely hiding the place in darkness.

"Lucia, here." After sensing each other's divine power, Menger at the warehouse door waved his big black hand and called in a low voice.

The three of them jumped up to the high platform where the warehouse was located according to Mengge's guidance. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Menggete sitting cross-legged on the ground sharpening his sword. Exposing the colorful curved blade inside, it shone coldly in the night.

There was no furniture in the room, only a few straw mats were placed casually. Seeing Lucia and the others coming as scheduled, Menggot got up and signaled the three of them to sit down, and said: "I have already arranged the situation at home, everyone They are all hiding in the large basement on the basement floor, and only a few compatriots equipped with weapons are standing guard on the periphery, monitoring the surrounding situation—how is the situation outside now?"

"Rolo appeared in District 24 an hour ago. In one night, he has killed two fighter teams and 96 ice trolls. The team that surpassed Duoris ranked first in the standings." Lucia replied.

Christopher added from the side: "However, when he was approaching the 24th area, we happened to pass by the people of Duoris. According to his current route, it is very likely that he will collide with that group of people head-on."

"He should be aiming at the people of Duoris," Lucia shook his head, "Maybe Carlisle would not want to confront him unless he had to, but Rollo would never think so, for him , completing Osarion's mission ahead of schedule means he can really start 'enjoying' killing."

"According to the information we monitored with the Dark Moon Badge several times on the road, Rollo's trajectory highly overlaps with that of the Duoris team, and the distance is getting closer—obviously, this guy is already determined to kill."

"Then let's wait for them to touch it first." Lataen wiped his pair of black swords shaped like broad-bladed double knives, "Duoris' people are definitely not waste, anyway, no matter who they are left in the end, They are all targets we want to kill.”

At the same time, in District 27, twenty miles away, Raglan, who was in charge of investigation under Carlisle, crouched quietly on top of a beam, observing the movement of a group of as many as twenty ice trolls below.

Although these mountain monsters still barely maintain the concept of "team" spontaneously, they have completely lost the ability to think in the way they actually move, and they just act on instinct.

Their huge eyeballs are covered with bloodshot eyes, and there is a violent red glow in the depths of their pupils. They are desperately looking for edible targets in the underground waterway-lobsters, giant crabs, or even the fighters they encountered. These descendants of giants who have fallen into madness just want to kill Everything in front of death, so as to make up for the hunger and pain that he could not contain.

As one of the instigators, Raglan naturally understood what happened to them. Duke Duoris not only used the Golden Dynasty standard punishment process to goug out the evil eyes of these trolls and seal their flame power, In the process of imprisoning them, a secret technique from the flame monk temple was applied.

This secret technique has only one effect - to fully mobilize the remaining flame power in the trolls' bodies, and to impact the seal of the golden tree on them at the cost of exhausting their lives.

After the secret technique lasted for a month, the seals of this batch of as many as [-] icefield mountain monsters more or less loosened. Now they have reached the critical point of dying, but they have also awakened because of this. Some of the residual heat of the evil god's power has become more dangerous and violent than usual.

"Hehehe, are these the eyes looking at his masterpiece?" A hoarse and ugly low laugh suddenly sounded behind him.

Sir Raglan's hair stood on end immediately. As a hero-level powerhouse, he felt that every ray of energy in his body was firmly locked by the enemy behind him, and the vitals on his neck and back of his heart were even colder. If you fight back rashly, if you can't even touch the corner of the opponent's clothes, you will be beheaded on the spot!

"I noticed it when I killed the first mountain demon. Awakening the power of the evil god to fight against the golden seal is the skill of a certain flame archbishop, right?" Rollo said with a smile: "Create more than 1000 such monsters." What good do monsters do you, expecting them to kill all the contestants?"

Raglan adjusted the muscles all over his body quietly, and tentatively asked: "If I tell you, can you let me live?"

"Of course!" Rollo smiled and inserted the two large knives back into the leather sheaths behind his back, and even showed his empty hands, and stepped forward two steps: "As long as you tell me the truth, I will not only let you go this time, It can also guarantee that you will go back alive."

Raglan breathed a sigh of relief and said with relief: "This is for."

The moment the words came out, a cold light flashed across the cuff of Rollo's left hand, and a sharp dagger that was only one palm long fell into his hand, drawing a silver arc of light, and slashed straight at Raglan's neck!

The sensation of the blade piercing into the flesh came, but there was no expected blood splatter. A large cloud of pitch-black smoke suddenly exploded in all directions. A splash of blood appeared on Rollo's blade, but he lost the target of the follow-up attack all of a sudden.

A hundred steps away, Raglan's figure was almost distorted into a blurred afterimage under the rapidity, rushing away towards the distance!

"The secret combat technique of the Land of Reeds? Hehe, it's really the only way for the rats to escape!"

The astonishment on Luo Luo's face only appeared for a moment and then disappeared, replaced by a bloodthirsty cruel smile, "But, the place is so big, where else can you go?"

　ps. The setting of the land of reeds is not made up. The "land of reeds" already exists in the worldview of the Ring of Law, and it will continue to appear in subsequent plots.
