Chapter 214 Earth Elemental Plane
This is the place of buried treasure.
Here is a barrier against all enemies.
This is the grave of the greedy.
This is the Elemental Plane of Earth, a solid environment composed of rock, dirt, and stone.
It is also one of the least visited inner planes by travelers.
Because no one can soar here like the wind element plane, swim here like the water element plane, or sail here like the fire element plane.
This is a world filled with solid rocks.
Travelers who are not alert enough and unprepared and appear on the earth elemental plane will feel that they are buried alive in this huge solid tomb, and their lives will end with being crushed. .
Their shattered remains will leave a warning to any followers foolish enough to come here.
Despite its solid, inflexible nature, the Elemental Plane of Earth's hardness varies, ranging from relatively soft earth to heavier and more valuable veins of metal.
Striations of granite, volcanic rock and marble are intertwined with brittle crystals, soft chalky powder and grit.
Rough and huge gem mines are sparsely distributed in the plane. These unpolished gems often lure greedy people to this plane, hoping to dig out gems with minimal effort.
Those with this intention often encounter natives of the Elemental Plane of Earth who are hostile to them because they feel that they are fully (sometimes literally) a part of their homeland.
Because of this, the Earth Elemental Plane is also a place that is hostile to creatures from the Prime Material Plane, but it is not as actively hostile as the Fire Elemental Plane.
Rather, it prefers to be indifferent and unconcerned with the dust of life within and around itself.
It is as patient a hard stone as the earth itself, and has all the time in the universe to wait.
The earth elemental plane has the following characteristics:
Supernormal gravity.
Normal hours.
Infinite size.
Variable form.
The earth element dominates.
Enhanced Magic: Spells and spell-like abilities that use, manipulate, or create the element of earth (including those in the earth realm) are enhanced and persisted (as if enhanced spells and enduring spells were used, but do not need to occupy a high level's spell slot). The duration of Thor's Travel is doubled as a result. Spells and spell-like abilities that have been enhanced and sustained no longer benefit from this benefit.
Hinder Magic: Spells and spell-like abilities that use or create wind elements (including the summoning of outside creatures of the wind element and the wind subtype) are hindered, including spells of the wind domain. These spells and spell-like abilities can still be used, but a successful spellcasting check is required.
.........
In the earth elemental plane, in a wide and dark cave, the solid walls suddenly began to squirm like melted wax.
Immediately afterwards, the slightly embarrassed figures of Brian and Myrcella appeared from the wall.
Behind the two of them, the squirming wall returned to its original state at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if nothing had happened just now.
“Did you get rid of them?” Brian’s face looked slightly pale. He reached out and stroked a strand of hair that was wet with sweat from his forehead behind his ears. He looked at the female lord next to him and asked. road.
She is a legendary spellcaster who is proficient in the spells of the prophecy school, and is naturally best at avoiding enemy detection and tracking spells.
“Don’t worry, they have been completely thrown away by me, and they will never trace our traces.”
Myrcella pondered slightly, opened her beautiful silver-gray eyes, and helplessly He looked at Brian and said, "Take a rest for now and then make plans?"
"I think so too." Brian shrugged and smiled, then found a rock and sat on it. Obviously, he Really need a rest.
While taking a moment to rest, he couldn't help but recall a series of experiences in the earth elemental plane, and a depressed look appeared on his face.
When he and the female lord convinced Amsroth Slag, the fire djinn lord of the fire elemental plane, he did not rush to the earth elemental plane immediately.
Instead, he rested for a night in the efreeti's castle to restore all his arcane energy and spiritual energy to a saturated state. Then, under the guidance of the efreeti, he passed through an object called the 'Iron Crucible' The elemental vortex came to the earth elemental plane.
Obviously, this trip to the earth element plane was not as smooth as the wind element and the fire element.
The main reason for this is that Brian rarely visited the earth elemental plane when he was in the game world, so naturally he was not as familiar with other planes.
In this case, he could only use the summoning spell of the conjuration system to let the Thor stone monster help them find the location of the earth giant.
The efficiency of this luck-based method is obviously not as high as imagined.
The earth giant lord they met for the first time had a bad temper and would capture them and make them slaves if they disagreed.
Originally, they planned to use force to beat him until he surrendered. Who would have thought that one stone would stir up a thousand waves.
Even Brian didn't expect that this series of interconnected caves called the 'Seven Labyrinths' turned out to be an alliance of slave traders composed of seven legendary earth giants.
Not only are these earth djinn unified under the jurisdiction of an earth djinn Khan whose strength is at least as high as the high legend, they also have hidden mage fortresses and trading outposts.
This is simply an earth element kingdom with a sense of order.
In this case, they naturally ran away without hesitation.
Escaped from the pursuit of the slave traders, the two of them got as far away from the jurisdiction of the Seven Layers of Maze as possible, and then began the second round of summoning the Thor Stone Monster.
As a result, the second earth djinn frightened Brian even more than the first one.
“I still don’t understand.” Myrcella interrupted Brian’s contemplation. She crossed her arms and paced back and forth in the cave gracefully, her dress rustling.
"The first time we encountered the Earth Djinn Alliance, their strength was inferior to that of humans, so there was nothing wrong with escaping. But the second time we encountered the Earth Djinn Lord, he was obviously weak. We can completely defeat him with our strength, but you Why are you running faster than the first time?"
"Because there is a powerful god-like backer behind this earth giant spirit lord, an evil earth elemental prince." Brian came forward. She looked puzzled and said with a hint of helplessness:
"You have to know that if we accidentally provoke this evil god-like creature, we may not even have a chance to return to the material plane."
< br>Divinity refers to the gods who rule the plane.
Although the non-gods of Sigil claim that there is no god at all, only a ghost cares about whether these people are right.
Because whether they are quasi-gods who do not need faith or true gods who rely on faith as the pillar, they all exist.
As true gods or quasi-gods, even the power on their thumbs (of course, refers to those gods with thumbs) is more powerful than any legendary professional.
Therefore, when mentioning them in the earth elemental plane, Brian naturally had to be cautious and did not even dare to say their names.
After all, there is never a lack of small-mindedness among divine beings.
They can turn a person's internal organs inside out and still let him live. They can also throw a person into the deepest part of the abyss but only give him half a map. It's still wrong. That kind of thing.
In fact, divine beings do not care about the affairs of the outer plane as much as they care about the main material world (except for the warriors participating in the bloody battle of the abyss).
But Brian once provoked this evil earth elemental prince in the Underdark.
Now, when he comes to the opponent's territory, he will definitely not be able to escape too far.
"I have heard a long time ago that you provoked some demon lords from the Abyss in the Dark Territory." Myrcella instantly understood the meaning of Brian's words. She stretched out her hand and pointed upward. He smiled and said, "Obviously, even some beings on the earth elemental plane have been offended."
"That's exactly it." Brian said truthfully, "And the kind that won't stop until death."< br>
In Bullingdon Stone City in the Underdark Region, in order to eliminate the hidden dangers of the underground gnomes.
He and Helist not only drove away the disaster caused by the earth element prince Oremok, but also stole a piece of quality that the other party had spent thousands of years condensing in order to improve his strength. The fifth level legendary earth element crystal.
Under the influence of this deep hatred, he naturally did not dare to take it lightly, let alone deal with his earth giant men with such arrogance.
After all, if you are not careful, even your own life may be involved.
Next, they took advantage of the break to chat for a while, and Brian ended the conversation.
In order to avoid long nights and endless dreams, he must end his trip to the earth elemental plane as soon as possible.
If Oremok, the prince of the earth element, gets mad and goes to find out his own existence, the fun will be great.
So, he once again took out a magic stone used to summon the Thor stone monster, intending to try his luck to see if he could meet any lone earth giant spirit lord.
“Forget it, let me do it this time.”
Seeing Brian’s actions, Myrcella raised the corners of her mouth slightly, showing a slight smile, “I can see that you The luck is simply not too bad. Just in case, it’s the safest way to do it myself.”
"Okay." Brian threw the magic stone over without saying anything.
However, when he saw the duchess of Arabe City taking out a gold coin, he was surprised at first, and then showed a look of surprise.
This is a gold coin engraved with the face of Taimora, the goddess of luck, with many clovers in the surrounding blank spaces.
Obviously, this lucky gold coin has been blessed by the goddess Taimora, and its role is self-evident. As for why the female lord was able to obtain this lucky gold coin, it is easy to think of it. After all, the largest temple of Taimora, the goddess of luck, was built in Arabay City, which she ruled.
Brian saw the female lord gently rub the lucky gold coin.
A faint spiritual light appeared, and the gold coin seemed to have lifted a layer of fog, emitting a strange golden light, and then gradually returned to calm, and was stored solemnly by her.
At the same time, the summoning spell chanted by the female lord echoed in the spacious cave.
As a khaki summoning circle of light appeared in front of her, a huge rust-colored creature accepted the summons and appeared in the center of the circle that had absorbed the light.
The top of this monster's head has a powerful mouth, three arms with sharp claws, and three large stone-lidded eyes that can look in all directions at the same time.
"The Thor Stone Monster welcomes travelers from the material plane to the elemental plane of earth." The monster opened and closed its mouth full of fangs on its head, and its voice was stiff like a mechanical voice:
"Believe it. Thor Stone Monster, give Thor Stone Monster gems. Thor Stone Monster will be your most useful helper to help you travel through the elemental plane."
Aware that the female lord was looking at him, Brian took out a stone. A gem emitting earthy yellow light was thrown into the mouth of the Thor stone monster.
Thor Stone Monster chewed up the gems and swallowed them into his stomach like jelly beans. He burped comfortably and said with satisfaction: "Generous material adventurers, what do you need Sol?" Did the stone monster help? "
"I need to know if there is a lone earth giant spirit lord nearby," Myrcella said to the Thor stone monster with a kind smile.
"I see, the Thor Stone Monster understands your intentions." The Thor Stone Monster was stunned for a moment, and then deliberately looked hesitant, "But..."
Brian instantly understood what it wanted. To convey the meaning, throw the same gem again into the big mouth on its head.
“Oh, I remembered the Thor Stone Monster. Your luck is so good. For the Thor Stone Monster...oh, cough! In fact, this is a very difficult thing to do. The Thor Stone Monster took a very big risk to help you complete the black meal...ahem! I will enthusiastically help you complete this pleasant trip, so..."
Brian and his wife The lord looked at each other, saw her nodding towards him, and then threw two more earth-yellow gems into the mouth of the Thor stone monster that had been waiting for a long time.
Thor Stone Monster swallowed it in one gulp, and his face became a little more satisfied and serious.
"In the Yanque Cave, 500 kilometers away from here, the Thor Stone Monster just happened to see an earth giant spirit lord being occupied by his opponent and fled. The Thor Stone Monster will take you to have a good exchange with him."
Is there really such a coincidence?
Brian looked at the mysterious smile on the corner of the female lord's mouth. He rarely believed in this so-called 'luck', so he had to pay attention to it.
"Follow closely, the Thor Stone Monster will take you to experience the journey through rocks."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Thor Stone Monster waved his hand and released two earth-yellow streaks. The light shrouded Brian and Myrcella, giving them the ability to travel between rocks.
In fact, even if the Thor stone monster does not use this spell, Brian and Brian can still travel among the rocks in the earth elemental plane.
Because in the wizard's spell list, there is a five-ring transformation spell called "Thor Stone Monster Travel".
Led by the Thor Stone Monster, they avoided the magma bursting out of the ground, the flooding in the fissures, the diffuse dust and poisonous clouds, and more than a dozen earth vein fluctuations, and finally arrived without any danger. A dark cave.
It can be seen from the countless fist-sized caves on the wall that this is the habitat of a group of earth element sparrows.
However, except for sparrow droppings and bird feathers, it is completely silent.
Obviously, these poor little guys were probably scared away by the earth giant spirit lord who broke into this place.
"The mission of Thor Stone Monster is completed. Thor Stone Monster felt the call of other travelers. Thor Stone Monster reported..."
The words have not been finished yet, business is busy. The Thor stone monster was pulled by the light of the summoning circle that emerged out of thin air and disappeared.
Bryan and Myrcella walked cautiously towards the depths of the cave.
About ten minutes, they found a spacious cave filled with shining ore at the end of a twisting tunnel extending in all directions.
As the Thor Stone Monster said, there is indeed an earth giant lord with earthy skin and a torn dark orange robe hiding here.
The Lord of the Earth Djinn stared at the two uninvited guests with golden eyes, and looked at the two uninvited guests with vigilance. He greeted them with vicious words:
"They are actually two substances that do not know whether to live or die. Guys, welcome to my territory. Now, I solemnly declare that from today on, you will officially become my slaves, subordinate to the benevolent and powerful Hatun Zangfala Ailkin Zarain, the king of the Mantle Abyss. , Bishop of the Diamond Cathedral, protector of the Star Scepter..."
"We don't want to talk nonsense with you." Myrcella took the initiative to take two steps forward, speaking in a slightly playful tone. The voice said to the Earth Djinn Lord:
"I need you to go with us to the material world. Now, I give you two conditions to choose from: first, give you what you want, and second Two, beat until you surrender.”
"Hahaha..."
The Earth Djinn Lord was amused by Myrcella's words and laughed loudly. His loud voice was like a boulder rolling down the cliff, causing the entire cave to shake slightly.
"Arrogant material guys, it seems you haven't realized your status yet." He became angry and roared viciously, "If you want to hire me, then beat me until I surrender!"
Immediately afterwards, Brian suddenly realized that the female lord next to him had established a super-magic link with himself.
This is a method developed by the super magicians in order to facilitate the use of their own abilities to assist their companions.
In the past few days of getting along with each other, and the understanding in his previous life, he had already understood the ins and outs of this female lord.
Even the several legendary specialties she has mastered regarding the super-magic spellcaster can be roughly guessed based on the energy she released to amplify the magic burst.
Such as legendary collaboration super magic, legendary enhanced super magic, legendary magic condensation, etc.
In this case, as an arcanist who is proficient in the field of creation, he naturally took out his staff without hesitation and began to launch what he thought was the best attack on the arrogant earth giant lord in the distance. Fierce magic attacks.
Along with a series of powerful spells whispered from Brian's mouth.
Myrcella on the side also quickly used the metamagic link between the two to amplify her metamagic expertise one after another into the spell that Brian was about to release.
In an instant, terrifying energy filled the entire cave at a dizzying speed, and even the air began to distort at a speed visible to the naked eye.
——"Seventh Ring Spell: Otiluk's Siege Sphere!"
——"Seventh Ring Spell: Otiluk's Glory Sphere!"
——"Seventh Ring Spell: Otiluk's Ice and Fire Balls!"
In an instant, red and blue balls exuding scorching heat and extreme cold, dense gold balls that rapidly increased in concentration, and radiant balls that erupted with dazzling colors, all accurately hit the earth element lord who was caught off guard, and burst into brilliant balls. Magic flame.
The earth wall that the earth giant spirit lord had hurriedly propped up collapsed like a shoddy project.
"Ah!!!..."
Suddenly, heart-rending wails echoed in the slightly trembling cave.
Otiluk is an authoritative wizard of the Evocation School. Whether it is his works, magic and spells, they are widely spread in all material worlds of the kingdom.
As a spellcaster of the Evocation School, Brian naturally cannot help but collect all the arcane knowledge and remaining magic about this legendary wizard.
Seeing the earth djinn lord screaming in pain, Brian knew very well that the earth djinn, whose strength had reached the legendary realm, had almost despairing defense and magic resistance.
——"Mayouf Micro Meteor!"
——"Avando Star!"
——"Silver Starlight!"
He immediately activated the trigger spell "Magic Rapid Fire" that he had set in advance, submerging hundreds of fist-sized meteors on the Earth Djinn Lord's burly body wrapped in thick smoke and steam.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!..."
Countless meteors were like locusts raining down from bullets, hitting the Earth Giant almost at the same time.
The terrible impact and the air wave generated by the explosion instantly caused his rock-hard body to fly backwards, hit the hard wall hard, and then slid down like a broken doll.
This instant burst of arcane energy made even the female lord who was assisting in casting spells unable to help but cast an incredulous look at Brian.
She rolled her sleeves to block the smoke and dust raised by the aftermath of the explosion, and felt a wave of emotion in her heart. She couldn't believe that this storm-like attack was actually the hand of a wizard whose strength had not yet entered the legendary realm.
——"Seventh Ring Spell: Berlant's Rock Splitting Technique!"
Brian shouted, and condensed a dark blue light on the top of the staff, pointing at the sluggish The djinn lord.
This is the most restrained magic for earth elemental creatures. Even the stone golem, which is famous for its defensive power, can hardly resist the attack of this spell.
Moreover, the casting material of this spell is a diamond cut into the shape of an awl, which is worth at least 2,000 gold coins.
"Stop! Stop! I surrender, I surrender to you! Stop now! People are going to die!!!"
As if feeling the terrible energy and fatal threat emanating from the deep blue light, the Earth Giant Spirit Lord Feeling panicked in his heart, he took his last breath and used all his strength to shout for mercy to Brian.
Seeing this, Brian shifted his staff slightly, and the dark blue rays shot out, instantly hitting the wall above the earth giant lord's head.
"Boom!"
A thick and winding crack spread to the surroundings at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, the earth giant spirit lord who was frightened into a cold sweat was collapsed. Buried in rubble.
