Arcane Lord

Previously, Polk’s image in Xia Duo’s mind was an adventurer selling fakes, and he also had some experience in ruins exploration, nothing more, but while he was suffering tremendously, he also thought of his adoptive father and even overcome the pain. , And also send a plea to Xia Duo.

　　 Even if it is emotionally driven, this will is very shiny.

　　 Xia Duo likes most affectionate subordinates. If the leader can love his family, he can also love the territory and the lord. Xia Duo believes that he is not a strict lord, but is worthy of the people’s love.

　　 Of course, to put it in a darker tone, it is easier for people with strong feelings to control.

　　 In the face of Polk like this, Chateau's tone became closer, "Pok, I will go to Jabbas, now you tell me, what have you encountered in the ruins?"

　　 Hearing what Chateau said, Polk’s will seemed to have some kind of support, and he even spoke more coherently:

"My lord, it's a statue. Maybe I accidentally touched something at the time. Daddy Jabbas suddenly pushed me away. He completely turned into stone. I--I crawled out of the ruins, but couldn't get out. The crypt outside."

　　 "Do you still feel your legs?"

　　 Talking, Chateau tapped Polk's ankle with the back of the knife again, Polk immediately replied: "Yes, but the pain suppresses perception, and it feels like a strand of hair has passed."

　　 "Does the pain occur in the petrified area?"

　　 "No, it's on the dividing line!"

　　 Xia Duo thoughtfully, then stood up.

　　 That's almost all that can be understood and needs to be understood at present. Although Polk's thoughts are still clear, Chateau no longer wants to ask, he motioned to Leiden to calm Polk to sleep.

　　 then walked out of the camp alone.

　　While waiting for Leiden to appease Polk to sleep, Chateau called Simon again and asked him some details of bringing Polk back, and then asked him to gather the team and prepare to go out.

　　 A moment later, Leiden walked out of the camp, "Sir, he is already asleep."

　　 Xia Duo nodded, and it happened that Simon's people were also ready, so he said, "Go to the crypt with me!"

　　 "Yes, my lord!"

　　……

　　 When Xia Duo came to the big tree above the crypt, Jeff, the director of the Territory Development Department, also rushed over. Xia Duo saw him and immediately ordered:

　　 "You came just right, pay attention, when you open up, go around the area near the crypt."

　　 Natsuo stretched out his hand and drew a circle around him, and a changing projection flew out of his fingertips, quickly marking the boundary.

　　 "Yes, Lord Lord!"

　　 "Go ahead, you are not needed here!"

"Yes!"

　　 Jeff came in a hurry, and left in a hurry.

And Chardonnay began to explore the magic before entering the crypt. Although he had been to the troll lair before, now there are ruins below. Chardeau can’t just rely on Polk and Simon’s words to do nothing. Go and check it rashly.

　　 What was going on there, he had to see it with his own eyes, and magic gave him the best way to see with his own eyes without going in person.

　　With the completion of the spell, Xia Duo felt an extended option for his various senses. He knew that it was the field of perception created by the discovery spell.

　　 Once the field of perception appeared, it was already in the troll's lair. Through it, Chateau "seeed" some pictures of the troll's lair. Of course, in order to avoid nose injury, he chose to abandon the smell information.

　　 The troll lair was not too different from what he had seen before, except that several branch caves were filled with mud, and the source of the mud was the part of the passage leading to the ruins.

　　 Following the passage, Xia Duo moved the field of perception into the ruins. When he "seeed" a weird stone statue with his hands outstretched, he realized that he had entered the ruins.

It was very different from what he had previously expected. The so-called ruins are not a spacious underground building space, but real ruins buried in mud. Except for the narrow passage dug out by Jabas and his sons, there are almost no other artificial Traces.

　　 Seeing this, Chateau no longer wanted to make a ruin.

　　 It’s not that I’m worried about danger, but because there is only one tunnel dug by Jabbas and his sons underground, and at the end of the passage is Jabbas who has been completely petrified.

　　 There is no way to go further, but a stone statue can be vaguely seen on the "wall" in front. The size of the statue should not be small at present, and only a part of it is currently exposed.

　　 From the exposed part, the owner of the statue seems to be some kind of scaly creature.

　　 Reminiscent that he once got a mysterious clay tablet here, and the text on the tablet is somewhat similar to the text on the [Color-resistant Scroll], Xia Duoyin has a guess——

　　Perhaps the ruins here are left by the creatures that created the [Color-resistant Scroll].

　　 Now that I see the statue of this scaly creature, Xia Duo is a little more sure about his guess. This statue is not the legendary creator race Saruk witchcraft!

　　……

　　 Detecting the field of perception created by spells comes with magical vision, but Chateau did not see a stable magical aura around him, only the aura remnants of the magic that was previously triggered and petrified Jabbas and his son.

　　 seems to be some kind of hidden trap, or some kind of mysterious and unknown magic item, or even a phenomenon, a magic phenomenon caused by the abnormal magic net.

What kind of 　　 is, Chateau can't make a judgment for the time being, and can only search for information as much as possible first.

　　 Judging from the petrified form of Jabbas~www.ltnovel.com~ he should have discovered something at the time. He quickly turned around and pushed Polk out, and then he himself including Polk's lower body was petrified.

　　 What Napok said was what he touched by mistake. It should be the self-blame words that survived alone.

In front of Jabbas, there is only the "wall" that has not been excavated in the innermost passage. Chateau moved the field of perception over and carefully observed the scaled statues that had emerged from the "wall". .

　　 If there is any trigger mechanism, then the most likely one is this scale armor statue.

　　 In other places, Xia Duo really couldn't see anything abnormal, but the scaled statue was not a magic item, at least in Xia Duo's discovery spell, it was not a magic item.

　　The best way now is to move Jabbas out, then find a way to dissolve him, and ask him directly what happened.

　　 Thinking like this, Xia Duo lifted the field of perception, and his senses and perspective returned to the ground again. He called to Simon and said:

　　 "Send someone to move Jabbas out. He has been petrified. Be careful when you move. Don't damage it, lest he will trouble you with any missing parts after the petrification is lifted."

　　 Hearing that the petrochemical can still be lifted, Simon's expression was obviously lighter, he responded loudly, and then he wanted to arrange his subordinates to start action.

　　 However, Xia Duo stopped him again, exhorting: "Be careful not to touch the innermost part of the passage."

"Yes!"
