Chapter 1047 1029. Dol Guldur
The closer we get to this old castle, the more ominous and depressing the atmosphere becomes.
It is a stone building complex built on a hill, and you can vaguely see the towering and majestic appearance it once had.
But as thousands of years pass, even stone castles will decay and collapse.
In Dol Guldur now, there is no decent roof in the entire building, only the vertical city walls and the remnants of the floors that have barely collapsed.
The closer the trees of the Dark Forest are to this place, the more ferocious their images become.
The dry and twisted branches seemed to be longing for something. The branches of the strange trees all over the hillside were stretching in the direction of Dol Guldur.
Obviously they are in the same forest, but the area near Dol Guldur is always shrouded in dark clouds that are so thick that they are almost opaque.
At the foot of the mountain where Dol Guldur was, even Lan En felt a burst of anxiety and panic for no reason.
“We.” Radagast swallowed and clenched the staff in his hand. "We have to leave the car and Qilin here, so that when necessary, we can escape quickly."
Although he was trembling when he spoke nervously, he still insisted on entering this chilling old castle.
Lan En nodded.
"Flannel ball, you stay too."
"Meow?"
Lan En explained: "Protect the rabbits with Qilin, there may be something here at any time Come out and eat them.”
After receiving the mission, Mao Mao immediately held his head high and raised his looting knife to Lan En, showing his reliability to the boss.
Radagast and Lann looked at each other and said nothing more. He raised his wand forward warily and walked towards Dol Guldur.
The entrance to the old castle is a solid and heavy stone bridge without any guardrails. It is only as wide as two people shoulder to shoulder, and below is a dark abyss.
The malice of this building reminded Lan En of the dim world of flames.
Continuing to walk inside, due to the collapse of a large area of the floor roof, the entire building has turned into a strange scene with only many stairways interlaced out of thin air.
There are steel spikes on the edges of every building, and the vines clinging to the walls look like thorns. Even if you just brush against any place at walking speed, you will get a layer of skin scraped off if you don't have armor.
It seemed as if the entire old castle was eager to harm every creature that came close.
The closer you get, the stronger the malice and the sense of mental oppression become.
Lan En watched from behind. Radagast's legs and feet, which were originally agile and powerful than those of a young man, were already trembling slightly.
The witcher did not mean to look down on Radagast's performance.
He is one of the only five wizards in Middle-earth. If he can feel something deeper than the witcher, and be more frightened and affected, then Lan En has no reason not to believe it.
"I'm behind you."
Lan said quietly from behind. This stable and rational voice made Radagast feel the support from behind.
His steps became much more steady.
But at this moment, the two of them had just walked through a helpless suspended staircase.
Lan En's ears twitched slightly, and then he immediately turned around on guard!
On the transfer platform in the middle of the stairs, there is a human sculpture about four meters high.
The sculpture image is a gloomy human warrior. His gauntleted hands hold the hilt of the sword, and the sword is on the ground in front of him.
In what Lan En heard just now, he heard the sound of the gauntlets clenching the hilt of the sword.
A demon hunter will not be like the protagonist in a horror movie, who, out of luck and afraid to face the terrifying reality, will regard the small movements he hears as auditory hallucinations and hallucinations.
The objectively existing danger will not really disappear because of ridiculous actions like hiding one's ears and stealing the bell. If you don't face it because of luck, you will only make your death worse.
‘Image analysis is in progress.’
Needless to say the tacit understanding between Mentos and the subject, the moment Lan En turned his head to look over, it had already begun to retrieve the memory images.
After a moment, the analysis results were clear.
The tightness of the 'statue' holding the sword hilt has indeed changed!
It can move!
The confirmation of turning his head and adding the biochemical intelligence brain was completed almost simultaneously. The moment Lan En passed his peripheral vision, Mentos's image analysis was over.
So from the outside, Lan En almost looks like a stress reaction. But in fact, every move he makes is well-founded and follows calm logic and tactical planning.
After passing the statue, turn around immediately!
“Choke!”
A sharp explosion!
The sharp silver light pouring out from the waist, the upward Iai slash cutting the rock all the way, and the iron sword held in front of him by the statue!
The cross section is so smooth, crisp, and transparent from front to back that the upper part of the statue almost slides off the whole!
But Lan En did not take it lightly.
Because a biting chill burst out from the other direction, making the hair on his body stand on end!
The moving statue is just a pretense! Real malice comes from other directions!
But fortunately, Lan En has never regarded the evil in this world as brainless monsters.
His actions are just a pretense!
The Iai Slash was drawn out diagonally upwards before the move could be retracted. But the witcher's peephole had turned in another direction.
With his free left hand, he turned around and pulled him over without looking!
“Huh?”
The collar of Radagast’s tattered brown robe was pulled, and he himself turned in the right direction due to the force of the pull.
Lan En's series of actions just now were so fast that he hasn't reacted yet.
Radagast, who was already nervous, was even more confused and in a state of stress after being pulled from behind by Lan En.
With almost no reaction time at all, the wand he had been holding cautiously in front of him emitted white light under the burst of his power!
“Ah!!!”
A scream that was chilling to the bone.
What is the essence of the wizard, Lan En does not know, but the white light emitted from Radagast's staff has an almost ethereal and distant sense of sanctity.
No match for this crazy, sloppy old man who loves animals and eats mushrooms.
But for the things that attack, this is a great match!
The whole body of the attacking thing was like green smoke, with only the upper body condensed into a human shape.
It was a hideous image of a withered, decayed skull, with only a few sparse strands of hair still attached to the scalp, and a crown.
It also holds a short sword in its hand.
The chill that Lan En felt just now came from its approach!
Not only does this thing look like a ball of green smoke, but its light movements and appearance of being completely unaffected by inertia are like flying smoke.
The white light emitted from the head of Radagast's wand seemed to have substantial thrust, pushing away the flying smoke directly.
And in mid-air, the human-shaped miserable green smoke had no inertia at all, and it rushed up again in an instant.
Lan En's left hand, which was holding Radagast's collar, stretched forward, and the handprint he made sent out a shock wave.
【Alder's Seal】!
There was a roar of surging airflow. Logically speaking, Lan En's body has been strengthened many times, and there are Valyrian steel wires covering the muscle layer that have good magic conductivity.
The power of his seal is enough to lift up a layer of land in front of him!
But a moment later, in the fan-shaped area in front of Lan En's palm, the stone bricks paved on the floor of Dol Guldur did make a "krak kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkrkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk closer
But that human-shaped ball of miserable green smoke seemed to be unable to feel the thrust of [Alder's Seal] at all!
Not even the slightest obstacle!
The vertical pupils in the demon hunter's pupils suddenly shrank into slits.
Following that, his good on-the-spot adaptability prevented him from panicking and being at a loss.
The long knife in his right hand turned, taking advantage of the moment when the opponent rushed in front of him.
"Boom!"
Light red fighting energy exploded on the surface of the body. !
[Lance Skills·Strengthened Defense]!
Hunters in the New World say they use long spears, but they are actually a combination of long spears and large shields. Their defensive performance is the best among the fourteen hunting weapons!
And
"Dang!"
Sparks burst out between the dagger and the long knife.
The witcher's eyes flashed with a look of 'Sure enough'.
Alondette, you can touch this thing!
Although there is still a strange feeling of weakness, as long as it can be touched.
"Boom!"
The light red fighting spirit on the body surface after receiving the attack In an instant, from red to white!
[Lance skills·Defense and counterattack]!
The enemy's power is harnessed by the precision-operated fighting spirit, which in turn strengthens his next attack.
The key to skill lies in timing.
The long sword that was blocking the short sword suddenly retracted, and then attacked again with far extraordinary speed and force!
The miserable green smoke figure was slashed on the side by the Lake Lady's Sword. The huge force almost pressed it down and flew straight away!
If it can be cut effectively, this knife will be enough to end the battle.
Unfortunately, the feel still feels weak.
The opponent's way of moving without inertia was too flexible, and Lan En didn't dare to let it have a chance to breathe.
While the opponent was being chopped away, he rushed over.
The sword of the Lake Girl is pressed against the chest, the tip of the sword is pressed against the opponent's neck and pushed forward!
But even so, the other party didn't appear to be substantially harmed.
Until Radagast finally woke up from the sudden change, he quickly picked up his staff and kept up with Lan En's rhythm.
Lan used the Sword of the Lake Lady to push against the opponent, while Radagast took the opportunity to rush the white light blooming from the wand towards the miserable green smoke.
“Ah!!!”
The shrill scream in the green smoke did not sound like a human voice.
Both Radagast and Lann's eardrums ached.
But the sloppy wizard still frowned and continued to increase the power of the white light blooming on the wand.
Finally, after a burst of screams, there was a 'ding, ding, clang', and the miserable green smoke disappeared, leaving only a dark dagger lying on the stone brick floor.
