The king scratched his head: "Never mind, it's a good thing. The first ring has many practical magic arts."
When a priest opens a circle, he will directly master all the magic spells in this circle, and he does not need to learn each magic spell specifically. In this respect, it is much more convenient than a wizard.
Wang: "Let's go, let's go kill the Eye Demons, and close the passage for the Blasphemers to enter our world!"
Chapter 340: A sudden response to the previous chapter
The mushroom people led the team directly to the Eye Demon's lair.
Unlike the gray dwarf fortresses built within large caverns in the Underdark, this lair is itself a series of caves located on the edge of the main cave of the Underdark, and is considered a branch of the main cave.
The Underdark itself is made up of countless large cavities, and the connections between different cavities are thousands of such small caves.
Nini saw the cave entrance from a distance and reported: "I saw Marika, she seemed to be trying to touch the whistle."
The king squinted at the cave entrance. His eyesight was so bad that he couldn't even see Marika, let alone the sentry.
Wang: "Then let's wait for her to come back after touching the whistle. Franka, you go forward and check out the enemy's strength."
After Franka puts on the ring, it is equivalent to permanently detecting evil in a large area, which can fully play an early warning role.
The jellyfish flew away puffing.
After it left, Xiao Bai whispered, "Don't you think the puffing sound it makes when it flies is like farting?"
Wang: "Nonsense, farting is the emission of gas, and it also emits gas when flying, so it is clearly a fart."
Flint stared at the king with wide eyes, "You have only just gained Kaelin's favor, and you are already speaking like a completely heartless priest of Kaelin! Kaelin's Horns!"
Wang imitated his tone: "Kaylene's belly button!"
The dwarf ignited an inexplicable hostility: "Kaelin's chin shell!"
Wang was about to retort when Franca came back with a snort.
"I sensed about 50 thoughts in there, and just like when I was with the Mind Flayer, I couldn't control their evil thoughts."
King: "That's normal. These are the servants of the Eye Demon. 50 of them, quite a few. Compared to the Mind Flayer, are they taking the route of being small and elite?"
Flint gripped the long handle of the flail tightly. "In a cold weapon battle, 50 experienced elite warriors are much better than trash."
Wang: “You are right.”
Nini: "Now there are only forty-nine left. But Marika lost her grip on the second enemy! She got into a fight with the enemy!"
As she spoke, Nini shot an arrow.
Wang squinted his eyes. He could only see the movement at the entrance of the cave, but he couldn't see the details. Even though his eyes had gotten used to the dim light, the long distance still became a hindrance.
Nini: "I hit the enemy and created an opening, and Marika took the opportunity to kill the enemy."
Wang: “Has it triggered an alert?”
Nini shook her head: "I don't know. But I'm sure there was no alarm, and no one came out of the cave to check the situation."
Wang: "Well done, let's sneak in. If Elizabeth can kill the beholder in one go by sneak attack, it will save a lot of trouble."
Elizabeth swallowed nervously.
Wang patted her shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid. You said it yourself before. We can cover you up. It doesn't matter even if you are accidentally petrified."
Flint: "Uh... But we didn't know this time the enemy was a beholder until we were halfway through our journey. I wasn't prepared to remove the petrification, so we have to wait until tomorrow."
Wang: "That's not impossible. When you are petrified, we will recycle your statue at the speed of light and revive you tomorrow."
Elizabeth nodded.
Flint: "The necklace stipulates that the duel cannot cast additional buff spells on His Highness before the battle?"
Wang: "I don't think so. So before you duel later, we will give you all the buffs we can."
Elizabeth nodded again.
At this time, Marika came back: "I took care of the gate guard. I wanted to leave a tongue to ask about the situation, but the second enemy was more experienced, so the sneak attack failed."
Wang: "It's rare that you can fail in a sneak attack."
"The guards here are all good fighters." Marika said seriously, "They are probably at the opposite extreme from the Mind Flayer's men. The enemies here are all elite, so it may not be so easy to defeat them."
The king's expression was serious. "That's bad. We still have the Eye Demon to deal with. Although the Eye Demon is given to Elizabeth to fight alone, we must maintain enough strength to kill the Eye Demon when she fails in a one-on-one fight."
He quickly made up his mind and said to Marika, "Let's not rush this time. Fight slowly. You move forward little by little. We will try to end most of the battles without triggering them."
Marika nodded: "Okay, I'll slowly move forward, and you guys are ready to support me from behind. Nini shot a good arrow just now."
Flint was shocked. "I must be crazy to see a drow thanking a forest elf! Normally, drow would only cut off the scalp of a forest elf as a proof of their bravery!"
“We haven’t scalped people for a long time,” Marika retorted, frowning.
"You're not going to cut it anymore? You've become kind!"
Marika: "Now we cut off the ears so that the remaining forest spirits can be slaves."
"As expected, you are still a group of evil creatures! You actually want to deceive me!"
Wang: "Stop joking, let's go. We'll keep as much distance as possible, so that Nini can see you. When you turn a corner, remember to leave a sign to let us know where you went."
"I see."
Just as Marika was about to leave, the king stopped her and said, "Wait a minute! I'm going to use the group mind barrier staff. The mind barrier lasts for one hour, so we should try to solve the problem before the barrier fails. Also, Franka just detected that there are fifty evil targets including the beholders."
As he spoke, the king took out the Mind Barrier Staff that he had lost due to the Mind Flayer's ability to enter dreams, and injected energy into it.
Then a layer of warm light enveloped everyone.
King: "Remember, the time limit is one hour! After the barrier fails, the Eye Demon may be able to sense us through its psychic powers, so we must fight quickly!"
Marika silently disappeared into the shadows.
Nini: "She's running fast. Now she's entering the cave."
Wang: “Let’s go too.”
The group set off immediately, and when they reached the entrance, Wang immediately saw the arrowhead on the guard's body.
"Maryka went to the right passage. Go forward." The king was about to raise his leg, but was blocked by the barbarian.
The barbarian entered the Eye Demon's lair first and looked around carefully.
Wang: "Relax, this place is just an ordinary cave. It shouldn't be full of traps like the ones in the Gray Dwarf Ruins."
At this time, Nini suddenly murmured alertly: "There is a sound. It came from the opposite direction of Marika. It sounds like some kind of mollusk dragging on the ground."
Wang frowned.
Xiaobai also heard the sound, so he turned his head and looked in the direction where Marika didn't go.
Soon, a monster appeared in the king's sight.
Xiaobai: "This monster looks familiar."
Wang nodded. "That's right, because we have seen similar monsters in the Fetal Movement Hall. Now we can connect the dots. The Fetal Movement Hall is probably related to the Blasphemer."
Chapter 341 Meeting an opponent in chess
As Wang Gang finished speaking, Nini drew her bow: "It's speeding up."
Wang: "It's probably the same as the monster in the Fetal Movement Hall. It can sense the vibrations in the air caused by the sound."
As he spoke, he opened the bag of spell materials and said, "I can use my Advanced Roaring spell to deal with them, but I only have one. It's best to use it as a last resort, gather a large number of monsters together, and then let me destroy them all in one go."
When Wang was in the abortion palace, he only had three-level spells, and the most effective one was Fireball. Now Wang felt like he had upgraded his weapon to a better one.
As soon as he finished speaking, Flint said, "You can keep that as a backup. Just one or two monsters are enough for me."
As he spoke, he pulled out a five-headed flail, deliberately struck a pose, and hit the ground with the flail to look cool.
As a result, the sparks from the flail fell on his beard.
"I'm going to fuck my beard! Water! Who has a kettle?"
Gotrick took out his leather water bag and poured it out. Flint touched his wet beard and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay!"
Just at this moment, the monster finally appeared with a howl.
The members of the rescue team were extremely calm, and they were able to comment sharply when facing the monster rushing over: "Wait a minute, did it bark the last time we encountered this thing in the Fetal Movement Hall?"
Xiao Bai: "Really? I can't remember clearly, I just remember there were a lot of them, we couldn't kill them all."
Elizabeth: "I didn't have a fireball at that time, so I could only use heat wire, but I was helpless."
As the monster was speaking, it rushed towards the crowd, only to be hit by Flint's flail.
The first one to come into contact with the monster was the ice head. Before the monster was frozen, the fire head hit it again. The soldier who had just appeared turned into steam with a sizzling sound. Then the acid head fell to the ground. The strong acid caught fire immediately when it met the fire, and a small fireball rose up.
Flint turned his head deliberately to avoid burning his beard.
When the smoke cleared, only a small remnant of the creature was left squirming on the ground.
Flint: "Is this what forced the fungi to increase their defenses? They are weaker than we thought."
Before she could finish her words, Nini warned, "More squirming sounds, all coming from that side."
The next moment, a large number of monsters appeared at the end of the long cave. From the rescue team's side, it looked like a huge wave rushing through the narrow cave.
Wang: "I'm going to use the Roaring Technique!"
After saying this, he immediately began to cast a spell.
Gotrek immediately picked up Flint and left the range of the roar.
The next moment, the real "sound wave" and the "wave" formed by the monster collided with each other in the narrow cave.
The Advanced Roaring Technique would instantly smash the monsters in front, but the waves formed by the monsters were too "thick". When the sound waves of the Advanced Roaring Technique were transmitted to the monsters behind, they only caused their blood vessels to rupture, and blood and mysterious pus spurted out of their eyes and mouths.
But they are still moving.
Elizabeth didn't wait for the king's order and raised her hand to throw a fireball to add to the damage.
When the fireball exploded, a bunch of monster fragments were blown over. Nini picked up a piece of cloth and spread her hands to block the crowd - only she had such a fast reaction speed.
Wang: "Where did the cloth come from?"
Nini: "The cape I brought from my hometown."
