Chapter 239 Night Thief
Middenheim, Temple of Ulric.
It was already late at night.
The raging flames burned, illuminating every corner of the Ulric Temple. The city was silent. Except for the occasional soldiers holding torches patrolling the streets, there was no trace of anyone else. The soldiers guarding the temple stood there motionless. At this moment, an elegant figure quietly emerged from the darkness.
Accompanied by the magical breeze, the fog of sleep caused the guards guarding the temple to close their eyes. They lost consciousness, fell to the ground and fell into a deep sleep. The black figure stepped over the soldiers who fell on the ground and came to the door of Ulric Temple. He stretched out his hand to push the door open and entered the empty Ulric Temple.
In front of him was the blazing Holy Fire of Ulric, which passed through the ceiling of the temple and illuminated the entire city. This was the protection from Ulric, the sacred fire of fire.
The black shadow moved forward slowly, and then stopped - because at this time, he saw a huge figure standing in front of Ulric's holy fire.
"You damn elf bastard, you are indeed here."
Duanmu Huai narrowed his eyes, revealing a trace of killing intent. He clenched the war hammer in his hand and stared coldly at the intruder in front of him - it was an elf. He was wearing a luxurious archmage robe and holding a magic spell. stick. He is none other than High Elf, Commander of the Magic Swordsmen Council, Teclis.
This is also the information Alisala told Duanmuhuai. Just tonight, Tigris will take advantage of the coalition army to leave Middenheim, sneak into the Temple of Ulric, and steal Ulric's Holy Fire. Resurrection of his brother, Tyrion.
Duanmuhuai did not doubt Alisala's intelligence. In fact, when he learned about it from Alisala, Duanmuhuai could confirm that it was true. The fall of Middenheim has always been a mystery in the hearts of players in the game. No one knows why Ulric's holy fire was extinguished, and now, Duanmuhuai knows the answer.
These lowly elf bastards!
Duanmuhuai clenched his war hammer and stared at Tigris coldly.
"You are just like your distant relatives, despicable and despicable. The Holy Fire of Ulric is not something that a foreign race like you can get your hands on. Now, get out of here quickly, otherwise, you will only die."
Duanmuhuai has never been very fond of these pointed ears. Whether they are elves or spirits, they all look the same to Duanmuhuai.
"I won't leave."
Teclis raised his staff, his eyes extremely determined.
"For my brother, I must get the Ulric Fire, and you can't stop me."
"Then I will kill you first, and then completely destroy your ugly lair!"
Duanmu Huai scoffed at Teclis' threat and joked that he could destroy Summerset Island, so what about Ulthuan? No race can escape unharmed after threatening humans, no!
"You will soon understand the horror of the Tribunal, you point-eared bastard. I will twist your head off and take it directly to Ulthuan to show them the tragic ending of a thief!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Duanmu Huai jumped up, roared, raised his war hammer and smashed it towards Tigris!
"………………!!!"
Teclis did not speak. He could feel the killing intent and the aura of death and destruction coming from the terrifying enemy in front of him. He clenched the staff in his left hand and pulled out a sharp blade in his right hand. At the same time, the magical wind condensed around Tigris and turned into roaring air waves rushing towards Duanmuhuai.
But this didn't work. Black flames surged and erupted, like furious waves, directly destroying Teclis' magical wind, turning into dragon minions and grabbing at the elf in front of him. Seeing this scene, Teclis's eyes changed slightly. He hurriedly stepped back and raised his staff towards the ground.
"Boom!!!"
Pure magical flames erupted from Teclis's feet and transformed into a flaming phoenix. It let out a crisp roar and spread its wings to face the enemy in front of it. The next moment, the magical flame phoenix collided with the black flame beast. Duanmu Huai strode forward, swung the war hammer in his hand, and directly smashed the flame phoenix into pieces. He raised his head, the eyes on the dark helmet shining with blood-red light, and rushed towards Teclis.
"You don't understand!"
Teclis waved the staff again, and the power of magic exploded and took shape in his hands.
"The world needs heroes! The ancient gods cannot defeat the Dark God!"
"It's not your turn to decide, you bastard with long ears!"
Duanmuhuai didn't care about the magic released by Teclis. He rushed forward in one stride and slammed the warhammer in his hand hard on Teclis.
"The fate of mankind will be determined by mankind itself, not you despicable and despicable aliens!!"
"You are destroying the world!"
"Who the hell are you!!"
The burst of magical energy rushed towards Duanmu Huai, who directly knocked away the force with enough force to knock down a towering tree, rushed directly in front of Tigris, and swung the warhammer in his hand hard. Teclis panicked and tried to raise his sword to block it. However, the next moment, the war hammer roared and hit Teclis' long sword, completely turning the sword in his hand into pieces. A huge shock wave erupted, blowing Tigris away and hitting the wall heavily.
"You, you don't understand what you are doing at all..."
Tigris stood up tremblingly, his left hand was limp and paralyzed, while he gritted his teeth and stared at Duanmuhuai.
"You are a cursed race. You blindly pursue personal interests and glory, while ignoring the entire world! You don't realize that what you do will only bring destruction! Such a world is destined not to last long!"
"However, this is our problem as humans."
Duanmuhuai walked slowly towards Tigris, his steps were firm and his eyes were not confused.
"The so-called cursed rotten race in your mouth has existed in this world for countless years, and they will continue to exist. Whether the final fate of mankind is destruction or glory is our own choice. We do not need to come from other countries. The guidance of the race does not require those alien races to tell us how to survive - whether it is the elves or the evil gods of chaos, the fate of mankind will eventually be determined by mankind, even if it is a road of destruction, it will not be his turn. Foreigners like you come to oppose!”
"You crazy————!!"
Teclis roared and raised the staff in his hand, and the roaring magical flames broke out again and rushed towards Duanmuhuai. However, soon, in the surrounding black flames, the magical flames quickly dissipated. Duanmuhuai's war hammer swung down again. It passed through Teclis' magical flames and hit him directly. The staff in Tigris's hand shattered with a sound, and he wailed, and was smashed into the wall by Duanmu Huai like a nail.
Then Duanmuhuai reached out and grabbed Tigris' head.
"You, you dare to kill me, the high elves will not..."
"I don't care."
Duanmuhuai's hand suddenly twisted, and then he directly picked off Tigris' head from his body, and then threw it aside. The headless corpse collapsed to the ground, blood spurting out, but to Duanmu Huai, this was nothing.
"Hoo————" At this moment, Yurik's flames became more and more raging and surging. Duanmu Huai turned around and saw a huge ice wolf walking out of the flames. It came to Duanmu Huai and lowered his head.
"Thank you for your help, God of Destruction."
"You're welcome, this is the job of the Tribunal, the White Wolf God."
Duanmuhuai nodded lightly to the ice wolf in front of him.
"The fate of mankind, in the final analysis, must be determined by mankind itself. Any alien race that dares to control the fate of mankind will only die. No matter how great their reasons are, this is not an excuse for them to interfere with mankind."
"The elves have gone crazy."
The old white wolf glanced at Teclis's head on the ground, which was still staring at death.
"They lost their glory and were immersed in fear, despair and lies. But it didn't end there."
"Let's solve the immediate problem first and then discuss it later."
Duanmu Huai didn't intend to consider other things at this time. After all, the Eternal God's Choice was his goal next, but since White Wolf was here, he might as well make it clear to him.
"The God of the White Wolf."
As he spoke, Duanmuhuai looked at the white wolf in front of him.
"I don't know if you know that there is a terrible holy object sealed under the Holy Fire. If it falls into the hands of the Chaos Evil God, they will use that thing to open the Chaos Channel and completely destroy the world. Just in case. , I want to get that thing, take it away from here or - destroy it completely."
"………………"
This time, the white wolf did not answer immediately. It stared at Duanmuhuai and spoke after a moment.
"How did you know this secret?"
"I have my channel. You can think of it as a kind of prophecy. In the future I see, this despicable elf steals the Holy Fire of Ulric, causing the fall of Middenheim. The Legion of Chaos takes over this place. In this city, they excavated the sacred object hidden under the Temple of Ulric, and used its power to connect to the Chaos Channels of the North and South Pole, directly destroying the world..."
Duanmu Huai told Bai Lang the records he had seen on the forum - after all, he was far away from an alien planet at the time and had not witnessed it with his own eyes, right?
“……………………”
The white wolf was silent for a long time, and then he slowly turned around.
"Follow me."
Under the leadership of Bai Lang, Duanmu Huai came to the depths of Yurik Temple. The sealed gate here was of course meaningless to Bai Lang. Soon, it took Duanmu Huai through one passage after another. , walked along the long stairs to the lowest level of the temple.
Here, Duanmu Huai saw a mysterious existence sealed in the void. It was a dark, strange triangular pyramid-shaped object, suspended in the air, and installed by a strange space sealing box.
"Actually, I don't know what it is."
Bai Lang stared at something suspended in the void in front of him and said calmly.
"It seems to have existed here before I existed. I can feel its huge power. In order to avoid being used by others, I sealed it."
"…………The channel beacon of the ancient saint..."
If Duanmuhuai didn't know what this thing was before, then after seeing this thing, Duanmuhuai immediately knew what it was.
The channel beacon of the Old Ones.
I have said before that a long time ago, the Ancient Sages came to this planet, and in order to fight against Chaos, they created a lot of creatures here for research. Then the portals set up by the Ancient Sages at the north and south poles collapsed, and the Chaos army invaded. , the Ancient Sage was so frightened that he ran away.
The rest is history.
The strange black pyramid in front of me is actually the channel beacon used by the Ancient Sage to build the portal. To put it bluntly, this thing is used to make holes and open doors in the Ancient Sage's channel. Obviously, it seems that the Ancient Sage originally planned to open a subway station here, but later gave up for unknown reasons.
In this way, Duanmu Huai would understand how Chaos used this thing to destroy the planet.
After all, Chaos rushed in after destroying the Ancient Saint's North and South Pole portals. They are familiar with this stuff...
"Do you know what this is?"
"Of course."
Duanmuhuai nodded, and then he looked at Bai Lang.
"You don't mind if I take it away."
"Only if you can take it away."
Yurik also seemed to be curious. Apparently, it had also tried to lift the seal, but the seal of the Old Saint was obviously not something that a low-level god like Yurik could lift. Of course, the most important thing is that it is not familiar with this... But Duanmuhuai is different. He has vomited all the ancient sage's boxes, okay?
Duanmu Huai stretched out his hand and placed it on the beacon blockade in front of him. Soon, he closed his eyes, and then saw the irregular patterns changing rapidly. After a while, the original blockade marks were eliminated, and the black The pyramid beacon thus fell into the hands of Duanmu Huai.
"Huh..."
Duanmuhuai breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the beacon falling in his hand.
In any case, a hidden danger was finally eliminated.
