Chapter 180 Earth Elemental Crystal
The earthy yellow cloud transformed by Oremok's Disaster disappeared, and Brian's eyes quickly locked on the dying Earth Elemental Prophet.
——"Energy Missile (Fire)!"
I saw the staff in his hand pointing towards the Earth Elemental Prophet, and the energy seeping out of the void was transformed into five bullet-sized missiles. The orange flames hit the opponent's body, exploding into brilliant magical flames.
"Target is dead!"
"Soul energy is being extracted..."
"Experience points gained: 40,000 points!"
…………
Seeing the experience points gained, Brian relaxed. After all, he was still wary of this irrational prophet from beginning to end. If she accidentally used "Earthquake Technique", it would be troublesome.
However, it can also be seen from this aspect how strong the control of power the psion Helist has. Even though she knows that there are certain risks, she still dares to confidently remove it from the star. The plane was thrown out.
The purpose of doing this is just to facilitate his final harvest.
In this situation, he couldn't help but secretly lamented where to find such a good teammate.
If he had such a teammate by his side for half a year, he would even have the confidence to break through to the legendary realm.
"Is the battle here over?" Heliste, dressed in white dress, floated from mid-air like mist in the morning and landed in front of him.
"Not yet." Brian met her gaze and stared into her starry eyes, where she saw an emotional fluctuation that came from deep within her and belonged only to her.
Heliste was the one who had been in contact with him the longest among all the people he knew.
Even so, he has never revealed the secrets of his system to her, but she is a psychic, and what she is best at is detecting a person's true inner thoughts.
Brian sometimes even has an illusion. The two of them often look at each other, and she can instantly understand the meaning.
So, when this considerate psychic warlock fights with him, she will always let him harvest the lives of monsters intentionally or unintentionally without any accidents.
But he simply pretended to be confused and tacitly agreed not to mention these things.
It's like he vaguely guessed Helister's true identity and origin, but he never took the initiative to ask.
"Use your psychic detection power to search." He looked around, his eyes wandering on the wall from time to time, and finally said to Helist, "I suspect there is a secret room here."
< br>Helist nodded slightly, closed her eyes slightly, opened her psychic field of prophecy, and enveloped the entire spacious room, searching for every detail.
About ten minutes later, she slowly opened her eyes, frowned without trace, and looked at Brian, "There is nothing abnormal."
"No way." Brian frowned, thought for a moment, and then said: "Check carefully, there is definitely a secret passage hidden here, and my information cannot be wrong."
"Okay." Helist nodded slightly, her peaceful expression becoming solemn.
With a thought, a spiritual crystal servant wrapped in silver appeared, like a crescent moon suspended in mid-air.
She ignored the spiritual crystal servant, but took out a shimmering crescent moon pendant hidden in her collar, exposed it to the air, and hung it on her chest.
Seeing the pendant, Brian instantly realized that this psychic was going to get serious.
Like his ancient ring, her crescent moon pendant is also an ancient equipment, and it is also the equipment that activates all three ancient rituals.
These two pieces of ancient equipment were all inherited from the world of Atas.
As the Crescent Moon Pendant and the Spiritual Crystal Servant simultaneously erupted into ripples of silver light, spreading throughout the secret room, Brian clearly felt that when the light floated over his body, there was something It gives the illusion of taking off all clothes and standing in front of the other person.
Fortunately, this feeling comes and goes quickly.
About two minutes later, Herister put away the Psychic Crystal Servant, put the pendant back into her collar, and then pointed to a spider-themed tapestry on the wall.
With just a tap of her white fingers, the tapestry and the wall it covered suddenly shattered and disappeared, revealing a cave the size of a tapestry.
Seeing this situation, Brian secretly smacked his lips.
There is clearly a very secret secret passage behind the tapestry. According to normal logical thinking, the way to open the secret passage is to find a mechanism or key in the room.
However, this psychic who is proficient in the field of prophecy does not play according to common sense at all.
After locking the direction of the secret passage, she directly chose the simplest, most violent, and most practical method to complete this exploration mission.
Psychic dissociation!
Brian guessed the method that Helist had just destroyed the secret passage.
The effect of "Psychic Dissociation" is the same as the sixth-level spell "Dissociation" of the Evocation School, which completely dissociates objects or creatures, leaving only slight traces of dust.
This was the first time he had seen such a powerful dissociation technique like Helist's.
“You can go in.” Herister’s calm gaze turned to Brian, “I have cleared away the magic traps and restrictions inside.”
Brian nodded slightly and turned around immediately Go towards the secret room.
The moment Helister looked at him, he saw a slightly playful smile in her clear and beautiful eyes. This expression was something she had never seen before.
Obviously, she may have made a rough guess about her mental activity just now.
This made him realize that this was probably a good sign, because her cold personality seemed to have begun to slowly change.
When the two walked into the dark secret room, Brian used the soft light emitted by the light spell to discover that the walls of the mine were smooth and even reflected the magical light. It did not look like Carved out by svirfgoblins.
So after getting confirmation from Helister, they walked about fifty meters in the mine, and clusters of crystal veins appeared in a corner not far away, emitting an alluring light. .
"The elements here are very chaotic."
Herister stopped and signaled Brian not to move around casually. After checking carefully, she said to him, "I suspect that the depth of this natural mine is Some terrifying existences are sleeping."
"No need to doubt it, because you are absolutely right." Brian gave her a look of affirmation and began to examine the clusters of crystal veins.
He saw that the gemstones in the mine were all natural and had exquisite appearance. There was no need to dig out the veins to process the raw ore.
As expected, there are indeed some black rock-like gems hidden among these clusters of crystal veins.
Brian took out a piece of black rock the size of a fingernail and held it in front of his eyes for careful inspection.
He could clearly feel the amazing magic power contained in it, but due to the disorder of the elements, the magic power inside prevented him from easily calling it out.
In fact, this black rock has another name: Kadarin Magic Stone.
The origin of this magic stone can even be traced back to one of the three major creator races, the Saluk Witch Snake. They were the first to discover the secret of these ores.
However, it was the arcane empire of Netheril that was ultimately promoted.
The Stones of Kalinda were discovered by a Netherese miner decades ago, and their power was revealed by Grand Arcanist Elorion.
The Kalinda Stone can absorb spells intact and shatter after being thrown, releasing the spells intact.
When these rare and fragile gems first appeared, their base price was as high as 20,000 gold coins. However, after their widespread popularity, their base prices began to plummet.
Magic stones are mainly divided into three grades: low, medium and high. They can store one to three ring spells, four to six ring spells, and the most precious seven to nine ring spells.
Arcanists in the Netherese era liked to infuse Kalinda magic stones with offensive spells, such as fireball or meteor burst.
Generally speaking, this kind of magic stone is more suitable for ordinary people to use than a spell scroll. Just like throwing a grenade, all you need is a hand.
Of course, even the lowest level magic stone is not something that ordinary people can afford.
This Kalinda magic stone vein hidden deep in the Bullingdon Stone City Mine is the fundamental reason why Brian came here.
Although he didn't know much about the reserves of the mineral vein, he at least knew that before his rebirth, the mineral vein showed no signs of exhaustion.
It is impossible to judge the mineral reserves in this world using modern theories.
After all, this is a world with magic. While many rich resources are being exploited, they will also grow under the influence of magic.
It is said that during the Silver Age of Netheril, a huge mineral vein called Dekent was so rich that the empire mined it day and night for a thousand years before it was exhausted.
One of the goals of this trip has been accomplished, and Brian is secretly relieved, because the conditions he made with the underground dwarf mentioned the ownership of this mine.
The Kalinda magic stone cannot be used directly after being mined. It also requires a step of purification and cutting process by alchemists.
This inevitably requires him to cooperate with these dwarfs.
"Let's go."
He didn't linger too much here. He turned around and looked at Helister, who was as quiet as if he didn't exist. He motioned for her to continue walking towards the depths of the mine.
Actually, Kalinda Magic Stone is not only found in this secret vein, it can also be mined in other locations in the mining area, but it is just not as rich in reserves as here.
Following Helister's footsteps and walking in the winding tunnel for about half an hour, Brian's amazing intuitive perception gradually made him aware of an inexplicable sense of oppression.
This feeling is as if my heart is pressed down by a stone, heavy.
It resembles a sleeping giant, unintentionally revealing its majestic aura.
And the deeper you go, the more you can feel that will.
At the same time, his breathing gradually became heavier, as if he had encountered the dragon majesty, the natural ability of the true dragon clan, and the sequelae caused by failing the save.
He couldn't help but be secretly frightened by this negative state.
Just when he was about to lose his hold, a cold and soft hand stretched out silently and held his hand tightly.
Brian suddenly felt a cool spiritual force flowing along the palm of his hand and seeping into the depths of his soul. The pressure quickly receded like a tide, allowing him to regain control of his body.
He glanced gratefully at Helister, who gave him a small, comforting smile.
Soon, they walked deeper into the mine along clusters of colorful crystal veins, and finally saw an altar made of obsidian at the end. There are more than a dozen earth elements standing on both sides of the altar. They guard the altar motionlessly like statues. They are like a pair of multi-faceted prism-like pupils. The moment the two people stepped in, they jumped out of frenzy. Scarlet light.
Bain judged from the size of the earth elements that there were two earth element elders, three giant earth elements, and the rest were all super large earth elements.
Of course, the most eye-catching thing is not this group of earth elements, but a crystal ball emitting earthy yellow light placed in the center of the altar.
This is an earth element spar with a level 5 legendary quality, and it is also Brian’s last goal when he comes to Bullingdon Stone City.
In fact, the fundamental reason why the elemental energy here is in chaos and has been broken out of its proper balance is this earth element crystal.
It is said that Oremok, the evil prince from the earth elemental plane, accidentally discovered the Kalinda magic stone deep in the mine veins of Bullingdon Stone City in the material world.
In order to achieve new breakthroughs in his strength, He secretly sent a weak clone to secretly lurk here to set up an altar and silently absorb the energy of Kalinda's magic stone veins.
The energy absorbed and transformed by Him was finally condensed on the obsidian altar in the form of earth element crystals.
When the quality of this crystal reaches the level of a second-class artifact, that is when the evil prince of the earth element collects the fruit.
However, what he did not expect was that as the quality of the earth element crystals broke through to legendary quality, the originally balanced energy of the four elements of earth, wind, water, and fire in the air was imbalanced, resulting in The phenomenon of elemental disorder.
After realizing this problem, the Earth Elemental Prince Oremok used the method of 'Oremok's Disaster' to divert the attention of the underground gnomes, making them think that this was just unpredictable. Paranormal activity.
Who would have thought that the underground dwarf's Blingden Stone City was attacked by the drow elves and turned into ruins. His altar was also discovered by a drow priestess and she became aware of the secret.
As a result, the priestess was transformed into an evil earth elemental prophet. She completely lost her sanity and carried the cloud of Oremok Disaster with her to do evil everywhere, making people mistakenly think that the earth elemental prophet was the real behind-the-scenes person. Big BOSS.
As everyone knows, the earth element prince Oremok has been secretly developing in secret, just to absorb the power of Kalinda's magic stone and break through the quality of the earth element crystal to a second-class artifact. His strength will be can be further improved.
Seeing this, Brian was secretly glad that he had pulled Helish over, otherwise, he would not even be able to find the location of the altar.
After all, in the game world, after the player group kills the evil Earth Elemental Prophet and Oremok Disaster, the task is considered to be successfully completed.
However, what no one, including the underground dwarfs, expected was that five years later, the Prince of the Earth Element finally completed his long-planned plan and successfully upgraded the quality of the Earth Element Crystal to a second-class artifact. .
He absorbed the incarnation of this power and carried out a massacre in Blingden Stone City. If the main god of the dwarves, Garl Flashgold, had not personally come forward, this rebuilt city would have faced its second demise.
"You attract the attention of the earth elements, I will take away the crystal stone."
Seeing these earth element elders, giant earth elements and super large earth elements, Having locked the two of them, Brian explained to Helister in a solemn tone.
Earth element elders are earth element creatures whose strength has reached the legendary realm, and they also have powerful spellcasting abilities.
If he could not hold back these two legendary earth element elders, Brian would have no chance to take away the crystal, and he might even lose his life.
"Then be careful." Helist nodded slightly, her quiet eyes narrowed and became more solemn than ever.
Immediately afterwards, all six of her spiritual crystal servants appeared, suspended in mid-air.
——"Level 9 superpower: Tornado!"
The moment Helist's eyes narrowed slightly, locking on these earth elemental creatures, her six spiritual crystal servants suddenly A dazzling light burst out.
In an instant, the thick ectoplasmic energy seeping out from the distant void was all converted into swirling air currents, forming slender whirlwinds, whistling and circling like wild snakes. And out.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!..."
The soaring tornado made a sound like a series of explosions and raged in. The moment all the super large and giant earth elements came into contact, they were directly swept away. mid-air, scraping their thick bodies into pieces.
Although the two earth element elders held up a thick earth-yellow protective barrier for themselves in time, they only lasted for a few seconds before they collapsed, and their bodies were rolled up and down by the roaring tornado.
Brian calmly observed Helist and her six spiritual crystal servants who were maintaining the tornado, as well as the two earth element elders trapped in the tornado.
“Now!”
He instantly seized the opportunity, activated the teleportation spell "Dimension Jump", and appeared in the center of the bright secret room, his eyes locked on the elemental crystal that emitted an earthy yellow light.
Although the treasure was within easy reach, he did not put it away immediately. Instead, he calmly threw out the detection magic to check the specific condition of the earth element crystal.
The information obtained through detecting magic suddenly made him break out in a cold sweat.
Because this earth element crystal itself has a gravity of nearly a hundred times, if he reaches out to touch it directly, he will definitely be crushed to death by the gravity of nearly a hundred times.
Thinking of this, he immediately summoned his arcane fire and controlled it to erupt into a ball of brilliant blue-white flames, temporarily suppressing the light of the earth element crystal.
Immediately afterwards, he activated the powerful dispelling magic attached to the ancient ring.
The moment Brian's ring emitted a shimmering light that shone like a star and enveloped the earth element crystal, it instantly made a sound similar to the relaxation of a mechanical clockwork.
Seeing this situation, he looked happy and quickly put the crystal into his own dimension.
"Bang! Bang!..."
At the same time, as the earth element crystal disappeared, the bodies of the two earth element elders who were suppressed by Heliste and could not move There was a sudden pause, like a deflated balloon that was suddenly blown to pieces by a tornado.
"Rumble..."
With the treasure in hand, Brian was about to signal Herister to leave, when the entire secret room shook violently as if there was an earthquake, and the gravel on the ground was also thumping.
Brian suddenly remembered something, a look of horror appeared in his expression, and he quickly shouted to Helister: "Let's go!"
Unfortunately, it was too late.
A large ball of earth-yellow light suddenly erupted from the obsidian altar, quickly condensing into a 20-meter-tall earth elemental creature whose body was made of rock and crystal.
"Damn thief!!!"
The deafening roar of the earth elemental creature was like a mountain collapsing. The entire secret room shook violently, and dense cracks appeared on the smooth mirror-like walls.
Its thick and burly body shone with the luster of mica, and its obsidian eyes showed signs of fragmentation due to anger.
“Hold on to me!”
Herister’s face suddenly changed when she saw the enemy appearing. She held Brian’s hand and tried to escape through the teleportation spell.
However, before her psychic teleportation spell could be activated, she was hit by a cloud of mica flash that suddenly erupted from the body of the angry earth elemental creature, forcibly interrupting their intention.
“This is the ray of incarnation of Oremok hidden on the altar.” Brian calmed down and said quickly, “Even if you try to escape, it will be useless. He is not that strong. "Stay here."
After hearing this, Helist quickly adjusted her state, controlled the six spiritual crystal servants, and simultaneously erupted seven rounds of nine-level superpower "Tornado Storm" towards Ou Lei. Merck's incarnation rolled up.
The expression of the Prince of the Earth Element changed, and he quickly built a divine-like barrier for himself, isolating all seven roaring tornadoes from his body.
"Damn thief!!! You can't escape!"
Like broken obsidian pupils, He locked onto Brian's body coldly, roared angrily, and the roaring air waves rolled in, condensing into substance.
Brian propped up the protective barrier and struggled to block the roar of the incarnation of the Prince of Earth Elements.
He hurriedly said to Helist, "Attack him with all your strength, and I will interfere with his actions."
Helist nodded solemnly, the crescent moon hanging on her chest The pendant suddenly burst out with an astonishing amount of spiritual energy, which converged crazily on her six spiritual crystal servants. Huge ectoplasmic energy seeped out from the distant void and poured into the roaring tornado.
Suddenly, the seven tornadoes raging on the incarnation of the Prince of Earth Element suddenly became as real as seven violent dragons, violently beating his divine-like barrier.
Seeing this, Brian took out the earth element crystal he had just obtained without hesitation, and under the angry gaze of the earth element prince, he suddenly smashed it towards his body.
"No!!!..."
Seeing that the treasure he had spent dozens of centuries condensing into shape was about to be destroyed, the Prince of the Earth Element roared at the top of his lungs, and the entire secret room was shaken. There was a rumble and rocks flying.
He wanted to try to stop it, but unfortunately he lost control of his emotions, causing a gap in the god-like power barrier he maintained. Helist caught the opportunity and crushed it instantly.
Immediately afterwards, terrifying tornadoes roared and flew the body of the Prince of Earth Elements into the air, like fallen leaves in the strong wind.
Seeing this opportunity, Brian used the telekinesis ability of the arcane hand to quickly retract the earth element crystal that was about to touch the tornado.
Then, he directly activated the two skills "Magic Rapid Fire" and "Arcane Twins", and used the newly acquired "Spiritual Spellcasting" feature to suddenly erupt into hundreds of fist-sized bolide, flooding the area. In the incarnation of the Prince of the Earth Element.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!..."
The bolides exploded into brilliant magical flames in the violent tornado, and suddenly intertwined into a ball of spiritual energy and arcane magic. Firestorm.
“Despicable mortals who dare to steal my achievements, just wait for me, I will come back!!!”
The incarnation of the Prince of the Earth Element left behind a harsh word and disappeared with an unwilling roar.
"The target is dead!"
"Soul energy is being extracted..."
"Experience points gained: 100,000 points!"
……… …
As soon as Brian succeeded in finishing the wound, he heard Helist beside him. She suddenly exhaled softly. Her tight body suddenly relaxed and she leaned against him, giving him a warm feeling. Feel.
"My energy control is pretty good." Helist leaned in his arms and looked up at him, with a faint smile on her slightly pale face.
Hearing these words, Brian immediately understood why he succeeded in finishing the last hit.
However, he knew that now was not the time to sigh.
He did not dare to waste time and quickly waved his hand to take away the earth crystal core left behind by the earth elemental creatures after their death.
Then, he opened a portal and disappeared with Helister before the entire secret room collapsed.
