Chapter 46 Purple Dragon Seal Ring


Chapter 46 Purple Dragon Seal Ring

Purple worms are one of the most terrifying monsters in the underdark. Even mature dragons have to avoid the sharp edges when they encounter them in deep tunnels.

This is a super giant burrowing monster. An adult purple worm has a broken body diameter of about 2 meters and a body length of more than 25 meters.

They are particularly good at shuttling through hard rocks, and can even pass through hard rock formations at half the burrowing speed, leaving tunnels with a diameter of more than three meters behind them.

It is simply an activated ‘tunnel boring machine’.

That's exactly what happened.

Because the many complex and intertwined tunnel systems in the Underdark are almost all made by purple insects.

The most frightening thing about this monster is that it will swallow any prey whole, disappear into the throat, and then use the muscles of the stomach and strong acid to crush it alive to death.

And they have a large appetite. Their mouths are big enough to swallow a heavy horse in one bite, and their bodies can hold at least 15 humans.

The approximate data of the purple worm appeared in Brian's mind:

Purple Insect

Super Giant Monster

Challenge Level 13

Attributes: Strength 35, Agility 6, Constitution 25, Intelligence 1, Perception 8, Charisma 8

Special abilities: Poison, Tremor Sense, Blind Vision, Swallowing, Digger

…………

Although purple insects do not have supernatural abilities, they cannot cast magic.

But in the complex and intertwined tunnels of the Underdark, they can rhythmically compress and expand their bodies to move forward, and their movement speed is enough to put any monster that lives here out of reach.

For adventurers who do not have teleportation spells, once targeted by purple insects, it is difficult to survive with only two legs.

Facing this adult purple insect, with Brian's current strength and the spiritual energy and magic he has mastered, he is actually still capable of fighting.

However, it was a bit too risky for him.

He will not take risks easily without knowing the surrounding situation and people's hearts.

After all, this is the Dark Territory, where countless unique horrors are hidden. A little carelessness may take your life.

The moment Purple Insect neatly eliminated the two orcs, it had successfully attracted everyone's attention.

“It’s a purple insect, retreat quickly!”

A trace of fear flashed across the pale pupils of the Derro dwarf. He was the first to shout, and quickly followed the drow warrior, desperately escaping in the opposite direction of the purple worm.

Even the Kuo-toa monk, who had been sitting cross-legged on the ground and acting as a melon-eating crowd, did not choose to try to promote his pacifism to the purple insects.

This little murloc walked behind him with comically short legs, and quickly caught up with the derro and drow in the blink of an eye, running in front of them.

"Brian, leave quickly! If you don't leave, it will be too late." Before the Zedi Bear Man could leave, he shouted in the direction of Brian.

Hearing the voice, Brian nodded slightly to him. When he was about to leave, he accidentally discovered that the sword mage did not choose to escape immediately, but flew to the place where the drow priestess died. , looking for something.

At the same time, the suffocating shadow of the purple insect also successfully attracted the sword mage's attention.

Purple Dragon Seal Ring!

Brian instantly guessed the other party's purpose.

"Oh, damn, it's still too late." At this moment, the dark shadow twisted, and the figure of the goblin copper block appeared in front of Brian.

"Why are you here, where is Teemo?" Brian asked quickly when he saw the goblin appearing alone.

"I'm here to remind you, my big boss."

At this tense moment, Tongnuo'er said quickly, "Okay now, let me run all the way in vain and still be stunned. What are you doing? Run away!”

“Brother, don’t worry, I’m here.”

Little Timo opened the copper block’s cloak, revealing a small umbrella-shaped head. The mushroom head sprayed out a cloud of spores and stretched out its white hands to say hello.

Seeing Teemo, Brian relaxed.

Although he hasn't been in contact with this little guy for a long time, he really likes the feeling of little Teemo sticking to his side like a curious baby.

I was relieved to see that he was fine.

Hearing the rumbling sound behind him, he did not dare to waste time. He quickly looked at the bears and goblins in the swamp who were waiting anxiously, and said in a deep voice: "You retreat first, I will cover you."< br>
As a wizard, he mastered teleportation magic, and it was easy for him to avoid purple insects that did not have the ability to cast spells.

But they are different. Once locked by the purple insect with "tremor perception", it is only a matter of time before they catch up.

"Then I'll leave first."

The copper block carrying the little mushroom head ignored the spore cloud spewed out by little Teemo and disappeared into a shadow without hesitation.

“Be careful!”

The swamp bear looked at Brian worriedly, quickly ran away, and disappeared deep into the tunnel.

The moment Brian turned around, he immediately found the purple insect burrowing into the hard surface, running towards the sword mage with rhythmic trembling.

This is the purple insect's most common attack method. It likes to break through the ground, then use the impact force to knock its prey into the air, then open its big mouth and let it fall safely into its mouth.

This is just like throwing peanuts into your mouth.

"Don't worry about me, run away quickly!"

The sword mage ignored the purple insect's actions. Brian said.

Hearing this, Brian cursed ‘stupid woman’ in his mind and stomped on the ground hard, trying to attract the purple insect’s attention.

In fact, among the people he rescued from the drow, he was most optimistic about the sword mage whose strength reached level 10 or above.

So, he doesn't mind lending a helping hand to him when he can.

After all, after he returns to the surface, he still has to prepare to settle in the Kingdom of Cormyr.

If you can get the help of a sword mage who holds the Purple Dragon Seal Ring, you will save a lot of unnecessary trouble. Unfortunately, things didn't go his way.

The purple worm that burrowed into the ground showed no reaction to his actions, just like a sword mage rummaging through items.

In just a moment, this big insect left a series of raised traces on the hard rock ground, reaching the depths of the ground where the sword mage was looking for items.

“Bang!”

With a loud roar, the purple insect broke out of the ground.

The sword mage who finally found the dimensional bag was knocked away by the monster's powerful head before he even showed his joy.

The purple insect stretched out most of its body from the ground, opened its mouth big enough to swallow a heavy horse, and followed closely, preparing to meet the sword mage who was about to fall to the ground.

While casting the spell and observing the situation, Brian saw the sword mage who was knocked away. His fragile body was like a broken ball, turning into a parabola and falling towards the abyss of the purple worm. .

She was still clutching the dimensional bag she found in her hand.

——"Three-ring spell: Fireball!"

When he saw the purple insect opening its huge mouth, he did not hesitate to condense it into a basketball-sized fireball. Throw it into the monster's mouth first.

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar, the purple insect's huge mouth was blown to pieces by the fireball, and thick smoke billowed out of its throat like a chimney.

Even the air was filled with an unpleasant burning smell.

At the same time, the sword mage's body, which was about to fall into his mouth, was also lifted up by the air wave generated after the fireball exploded.

She gritted her teeth, endured the severe pain, and tried her best to twist her slender waist.

Then, he stepped on a spike on the head of the purple insect, used the force to jump up, and his shaky body fell to the ground, successfully escaping the risk of being swallowed.

The Purple Insect, which was blown away by the fireball and lost its mind, roared. Its more than 20-meter-long body curled up in an S shape on the ground. The cold and shining spikes on both sides of its body were like rows of oars. Swinging rhythmically, it rushed towards the sword mage.

Brian took out a handful of colorful powder, jumped a few times, and landed on a broken stalactite pillar, just enough to see the two shining pupils of the purple insect, which were as big as lanterns.

——"First-level spell: Colorful Jet!"

He skillfully threw the powder into the air, recited a spell quickly, and then stretched out his hand to point at the rushing purple insect. .

A dazzling ray of light suddenly pierced into the purple insect's two big eyes like a brilliant sword.

The severe pain from the eyes caused the charging purple insect to suddenly erect its jointed front body, twist its long body, and scream angrily with its flat mouth shining with deep purple luster, dripping venom. The fangs open and close.

Seeing the purple insect being interrupted from attacking, Brian stopped moving.

Because there is only so much he can do, then it depends on the sword mage himself.

Just as he thought.

The seriously injured sword mage propped up her body with the rune sword in her hand, knelt on one knee, and rolled aside suddenly just as the crazy purple insect was about to smash its head on her.

——"Flash Technique!"

Then she lightly opened her jade lips, whispered a spell, and her whole body turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared.

"I'm really sorry for causing you trouble again."

The weak figure of the sword mage appeared beside Brian out of thin air, and she handed the dimensional bag she found to Brian. He showed a forced smile and sincerely pleaded:

"Can you help me bring the Purple Dragon Seal Ring back to the Kingdom of Cormyr? Although I am seriously injured, I can still cover your retreat."

"It's just a ring, it takes so much effort. "Bryan took the item, weighed it in his hands, and asked pretending not to know.

Purple Dragon Seal Ring.

It is a magic prop entrusted by the Cormyr royal family to be cast by the palace mage.

Generally speaking, it can only be seen in the hands of the commander-in-chief of a certain region.

But sometimes, the royal family would also give this ring engraved with the purple dragon seal to heroic knights who protect the country, or lords who try to go to the frontier to serve as pioneers.

It is not only a magic item, but also a symbol of the identity and status of the Kingdom of Cormyr.

In fact, what Brian said was a bit against his will.

Because he had coveted this item for a long time when he was in the game world.

In order to obtain a Purple Dragon Seal Ring issued by the Cormyr royal family, he risked his life many times, but finally left the destroyed Kingdom of Cormyr with regret in his heart.

This is why he chose to stay and help the sword mage when she mentioned the Purple Dragon Seal Ring.

"It's worth it!"

The sword mage gave him a brief answer in a firm tone, and sighed sadly, "It carries a dream of my childhood, although I hope It's slim, but I still don't want it to be left in the Underdark forever."

"Okay, I promise you."

Brian was silent for a moment and met the sword mage's eager gaze. He nodded without thinking and said seriously, "If possible, I will send it to Suzal City and hand it over to the Supreme Mage Sandra Hast personally."

At this time, he had already seen the purple insect recovering from its madness and locking the two of them. If they didn't escape, it might be too late.

“You are indeed from the Battle Mage Legion.”

Hearing this, the sword mage girl’s silver-gray eyes flashed with joyful light, and then she brushed away the red color covering her face. With long brown hair, she smiled at him and said, "Then it's up to you."

She left Brian with a decisive back view, straightened her back with all her strength, and held the rune sword tightly, without fear. The ground faced the purple insect's suffocating huge body.
