Chapter 117 Shadow


Chapter 117 Shadow

“The people in Shadow City want to kill us all here and sacrifice them to their goddess. Can we just sit back and wait for death?!”

bloated body Graal raised his voice and shouted towards the chaotic crowd.

Immediately afterwards, he immediately activated the teleportation spell on the ring and disappeared.

Obviously, he also understands that as an ordinary person with no power, staying here will only cost him his life.

With Graal's disappearance, the entire banquet hall immediately fell into blood and chaos.

The slave owners and merchants screamed and stumbled against each other. In their haste, they tripped over their luxurious robes one after another, and were trampled to death while wailing.

The guards around them also rushed towards the gate in the chaotic pushing.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The soldiers guarding the door closed all the doors at an extremely fast speed and locked them.

The crowd rushed to the door and banged on the door of the banquet hall frantically, cursing and screaming.

After receiving the orders from the Shaar priests, the dark knights from the City of Shadows drew out their weapons one after another, killing everyone they passed or met without mercy.

These dark knights are all dark guards who believe in the night goddess Shar. They not only master powerful martial arts, but also have the ability to release evil magic.

They are a symbol of evil, mortal demons who serve evil gods and are in opposition to the cautious and kind-hearted paladins. They are sometimes called dark paladins.

A businessman's desperate cry was cut off by the Dark Knight's whip that shone with evil energy wrapped around his neck.

His ogre bodyguard had just raised the heavy mace and was about to fight back. A sharp sword quickly and accurately cut off the ogre's arm as thick as an adult's thigh.

The ogre guard was wailing in pain, and his huge head was cut off again, and he fell to the ground on his back.

The escaping slave owner was pierced through the chest by a highly penetrating dark energy arrow. The guards around him immediately dispersed, discarded him, and trampled him to death.

A stream of blood splattered.

The entire hall suddenly fell into a crazy killing feast.

"Protect us! Stop them! Protect your masters! Take up weapons! Pick up daggers!"

The slave owners and merchants who had no hope of escaping realized that the situation was not good and screamed and ordered to bring them Guards and bodyguards to stop the Dark Knight from killing.

The tall and thin knight Zander, with his thirty-five carefully selected heavily armed men, collided with the Dark Knights like two torrents of steel.

Gold and iron intersect, sounding like a storm.

Zander's quick attack took the lead in cutting a hole in the chest of a dark knight, and blood spurted out like a horse.

He swung his sword forcefully, slashed three times, lifted the Dark Knight's head, and threw it towards the Shar priest who was releasing his magic in the distance, letting it bounce and roll on the floor.

——"Create the Shadow Beast!"

——"Shadow Tentacles!"

——"Summon the Nightmare!"

——"Deep Dark magic! ”

.........

The dark mist, as black as ink, filled the chaotic hall, like the twisting tentacles of poisonous snakes, the nightmare-like fear, and the beasts produced by twisted shadows, wreaking havoc among the crowd.

“Crack!”

The two orcs were entangled by the tentacles and strangled their necks directly.

“Ah!!!”

A goblin was possessed by the shadow of a wolf with red eyes, and was frightened to death.

——"Summoning of the Undead!"

Along with the rays of light appearing from the magic circle.

Ghouls, troll skeletons, ogre zombies, skeleton warriors and many other undead creatures exude cold negative energy and stagger towards the crowd.

In just a moment, these dozen Dark Guards, whose strength was around the third level, with the assistance of Shar Priest, still had the upper hand in the face of dozens of times more opponents.

"Fire the arrow!"

At this moment, in the hall shrouded in darkness, someone unknown gave an order, and the echoing sounds of bowstrings sounded one after another.

A Shar priest was about to chant a divine spell when a cold arrow exuding the luster of mithril accurately hit her throat, and she fell to the ground on her back, lifeless.

Seeing this, the faces of the companions around her changed one after another, and they propped up dark shields for themselves at extremely fast speeds, trying to block this deadly cold arrow.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

A stream of sharp arrows pierced the sky, carrying a faint magical aura, aiming directly at these spellcasters.

"Click! Click! Click!"

In an instant, sounds like broken porcelain sounded frequently.

The shields of the Shar priests shattered in response, and their bodies were immediately penetrated by sharp arrows containing demon-breaking energy.

When the three third-level priests who had resisted with their own strength were about to fight back, orange-yellow flame arrows sprang out from the shadows, hitting their faces accurately, and the hot flames burned fiercely.

Amidst the bursts of explosions, they seemed to be wearing a burning crown, and fell to the ground dead while wailing.

Seeing that Shar's priests had been cleaned up by more than twenty magic-breaking arrows that he had carefully prepared, Brian smiled.

These expensive magic-breaking arrows themselves have 2 points of magic-breaking properties, and they are temporarily fixed by his "dispelling magic" spell. Faced with the protective magic of this group of priests, they can naturally be easily destroyed. Break open.

Even when he faced this kind of attack, he couldn't guarantee that his force field barrier would be able to withstand it.

Then, he immediately set his sights on Natasha.

Although the opponent was hit by two fifth-level spells "Flame Strike" due to his sneak attacks, he activated his own trigger protection magic to successfully offset the spells.

A fourth-level paragon spellcaster resisted two fifth-ring spells. He was not surprised by this.

When Brian turned his gaze over, he happened to see the charging warrior Lando being hit again by a black energy ball that exuded an evil aura. He flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground. Above, the heavy armor clanked.

As a warrior who has reached the third level of strength, although Lando has no effective attack methods against spellcasters, the various immunity brought by his strong body, as well as the equipment and weapons are very luxurious.

The magic of Shadow Tutor is mainly based on illusion and shadow, and does not have strong direct damage.

For a moment, Lando actually resisted Natasha's shadow magic and bought him enough time.

This forced him to admit that this warrior named Lando did give him a big surprise.

Being able to raise his strength to the third level just by virtue of his age of over 20 years old shows his talent.

As long as you can live forever, there is no chance of advancing to the Legend of Destiny before the age of fifty.

After all, as a warrior, as long as he does not reach legend, he is just cannon fodder.

Unless they can all be like Lando in front of them, relying on a suit of luxurious equipment to resist the magic attack of the wizard. ——"Fireball!"

Brian looked at Natasha solemnly and saw that the other party was responding to Lando's attack. He immediately seized the opportunity and used it as quickly as possible. A roaring fireball was condensed and smashed up.

"Boom!"

There was an explosion, and Natasha's embarrassed figure was engulfed in the hot fire. Lando also rolled on the spot and flashed under Brian's timely reminder. Stay away.

——"Krugel's Fire Arrow!"

Immediately afterwards, Brian waved his staff and used skillful techniques to throw out one after another highly penetrating fire arrows, shooting into the air. Shot away in the smoke of gunpowder.

"Prepare the spell!"

After the spell was released, he immediately looked at a moon elf mage not far away and gave her an order.

This female elf mage who has reached the third level of strength was hired by Grall at a huge cost to assist him and kill Natasha together.

The task Brian gave her was to release "Advanced Dispelling Magic" to break through the opponent's defensive force field.

After all, compared to the damage caused by spells, even if his strength is at the peak of the second level, with the blessing of various characteristics of the battle mage, the plastic magic he releases is definitely better than most third level spellcasting. The damage is even higher.

——"Advanced dispelling magic!"

The female elf mage nodded slightly, and as she recited the last few bars of the spell, energy began to pulse in her slender fingertips.

The moment she pointed at Natasha who emerged from the smoke.

This energy was immediately released, and the moment the silver shimmer emitted enveloped the enemy, it made a sound similar to the relaxation of a mechanical clockwork.

At the same time, the shadow shield around Natasha flickered in and out of silver luster, like a flickering candle that would be extinguished at any time.

——"Fourth Ring Spell: Lightning Spear!"

Brian was not idle either. He took out a small metal spear, quickly infused it with magical energy, and created a deadly spear. of spear.

The energy spear shimmering with gray light came out, hitting Natasha's body at lightning speed, breaking through the shield she had just held up, and piercing her entire slender body. .

The shadow mentor from the City of Shadows screamed, and his whole body was like a deflated ball, with waves of dark energy surging out and dissipating without a trace.

Seeing the enemy disappear, Brian glanced at the battlefield not far away.

Without the assistance of the priest, these fifteen Shar's black guards are running out, and it is only a matter of time before the battle ends.

The door has been forcibly broken open, and most of the survivors have escaped. Of the more than 30 men brought by Zander, there are still more than 20 people left.

Looking at the battle that was about to end, not only did he not smile, his expression became more solemn.

He has fought against the wizards of Shadow City many times, so he naturally knows the characteristics of the shadow mentor.

Shadow mentors have a particularly powerful ability "Double Shadow". They can create a clone every day without spending any cost.

All attributes and expertise of this clone are exactly the same as the original, except for the equipment carried by the original.

So, when Brian realized that he could kill the opponent so easily, he understood that this was not Natasha's true identity, but a clone.

So, he began to think about what the other person would do next.

After all, out of his understanding of Haunted City, he first set up a magic circle to block large-scale teleportation magic, and also made secondary preparations.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that a magic circle he had arranged to block large-scale teleportation spells was broken.

A faint, blood-curdling scream reached his ears, making his eyes suddenly sharpen.

At this time, Brian felt as if he was soaked in the air filled with evil aura, making him feel uncomfortable all over.

“Why do I feel so cold suddenly?”

"What's going on?"

"What happened?"

…………

The Dark Knight's battle is over, and almost all the survivors are aware of it This strange aura made his expression become panicked.

The paladin, who had been sitting firmly on the chair and remained indifferent to the chaotic battle, suddenly opened his eyes, grasped the holy symbol and weapon tightly, stood up from the chair, and looked into the dim void.

Elend, the half-elf poet who appeared out of nowhere, also raised his head and looked at the surrounding situation thoughtfully.

“Jie Jie Jie”

Suddenly, a blurry black figure emerged from the shadow behind a mercenary and sneered at him.

The weird laughter seemed to come from the abyss, empty and full of malice.

I saw this blurry shadow, revealing a pair of blood-red eyes hidden in the shadow, quickly pounced on the mercenary, like a carpet as black as jet black, holding him tightly wrapped in it.

"Ah!!!"

The mercenary screamed, his shoulders shaking violently, and he fell to the ground, twisting and twitching like a dying fish.

This scream was like a sign, and many shadows appeared from everyone's shadow, each rushing towards their prey.

In an instant, blood-chilling weird laughter and shrill wails merged together, echoing in the chaotic banquet hall.

“It’s a ghost, use the fire potion immediately!”

Brian waved his staff, released magic, killed a ghost that only leaned out of the shadows, and quickly issued orders to Graal's men.

Hearing his order, the soldiers led by Zander skillfully took out a tube of red viscous potion prepared in advance from their pockets, and then smeared it on their weapons.

Then he swung it hard, and with the sound of breaking through the air, a blue magic fire immediately ignited on the sharp sword.

The flames engulfed the sword blade, spiraling upward, emitting scorching energy that scorched everyone's hair and hair.

Immediately afterwards, all the ghosts peeking out from the shadows showed frightened expressions in their blood-red eyes. They screamed and were burned and evaporated by the flames.

——"Supernatural ability: Dispel undead creatures!"

The paladin who believed in Tom, the god of truth, finally chose to take action at this time. He took out the holy symbol and recited a spell.

As the sacred light flowed from the imprint of the armored gloves, the pale golden light array centered on the paladin and quickly spread to the surroundings.

Suddenly, all the shadows within the golden light range let out shrill screams, turned into light smoke at an extremely fast speed, and evaporated instantly.

A streak of gunpowder smoke rose up, and the shadow faded like a tide, just when most people were ready to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Jie Jie Jie"

The weird laughter came again, and a super large shadow creature hovered looming on the ceiling, emitting waves of dark, pure, heart-trembling evil energy.
