Chapter 599 Between Destiny (5)
The magic technology of elves is terrifyingly powerful, and even many technologies are beyond the imagination of today's people, such as space transfer, space folding and other technologies.
Aldai checked the mark she had left in the rotunda. It was indeed there, confirming that she had really circled back.
It seems that Destiny still has something to show, so he is not allowed to let people out yet.
In this case, it would be great to continue looking, get some magic items, and get some clues.
So the three of them didn't stay to rest for a while, and immediately took a fork in the road that they had never entered before, and continued to move along the corridor.
This time it didn't take more than 20 minutes like last time, but as we moved forward, the width of the corridor increased obviously. Soon the corridor was almost as wide as a passage, and it was more than enough to drive two cars side by side.
Looking forward at this time, you can see a gorgeous double door. The door panel is four or five meters high, covered with gold and inlaid with silver. The door is decorated with gorgeous patterns and gems. You can tell that it must be an extremely important place.
However, like the previous times, the door was still unlocked. Zola stepped forward and pushed the door hard. Neemia and Alde were on guard. When they saw the door opened a crack, the three of them immediately stepped in.
Here, the three of them saw a majestic hall with rows of black marble columns. Braziers emitting blazing red light were placed under the stone columns, making everyone's shadow thin and long.
Empty, yet claustrophobic, this is the first impression the hall gives.
Immediately afterwards, the three of them saw a throne placed at the end of the arranged stone pillars.
Its original splendor and jewels have disappeared. It is not only dilapidated, but even broken. It is just placed quietly on the high platform.
The marble steps that were once inlaid with gold edges were now covered with cracks, just like the throne at the highest point, like a king who had been betrayed and separated from his relatives, still sitting there, looking at the empty hall with sadness and pain.
I don’t know how long no one has come in. The sound of the three people’s footsteps slowly moving forward was transmitted, and echoed back with an ear-tingling echo. Perhaps countless guards and ministers once stood here, but now they are all gone. Made soil.
Suddenly, that dizzy feeling came back.
The three of them were all used to having their heads suddenly go numb while walking. However, this time, before the three of them could wake up from their dizziness, they immediately heard the sound of "Urululu", like a wild beast in the dark. growled.
Resisting the discomfort, the three quickly drew their weapons and faced the source of the sound.
Then they saw a huge and terrifying head slowly emerging from the darkness.
It only had one huge eyeball, occupying half of its face, and the other half of its face was occupied by a large mouth full of fangs. This terrifying head was floating in the air without any support.
There are more than a dozen twisted and wriggling tentacles on the top of the head, and at the top of each tentacle, there is a small eyeball.
The black and purple body looked like a nightmare sneaking out of the darkness, looking fiercely at the position of Aldai and the three of them.
"It's actually a beholder, how did it get in!"
Beholders, the most dangerous creatures among underground creatures, especially to mages.
The beholder has more than a dozen eyes. Except for the one eye in the center of the face, the eyes on each eye stalk on the head can emit deadly rays, such as petrification rays, death rays, chaos rays, etc.
The most terrible thing is that the main eye in the middle will release an anti-magic force field. Within the scope of this force field, all the wizard's spells will be invalid.
In other words, when faced with a beholder, your rogue teammates will turn into stone statues in an instant, your warrior teammates will suddenly disown each other and kill everyone on sight, and you, under the gaze of that terrifying one eye, will Loss of all spellcasting ability.
This kind of monster is very difficult to deal with. Its only weakness is that its eyesight is not very good.
That's right, even though there are more than a dozen eyes, this thing is super myopic, which is the beholder's only weakness.
Aldai had already planned several tactics in her mind, but at this moment, a figure suddenly bumped into Aldai and the three of them from behind, passing through them like smoke.
Taking a closer look, it was still the red-haired demon.
The beholder's attention was obviously following the red-haired demon, which made the three of them understand. Oh, it’s still an image?
I was shocked!
Aldai is planning tactics, Zola is not afraid because she doesn’t know what it is, and is ready to fight. Neemia is so frightened that she is planning to write a suicide note...
Since it’s an image, let’s just watch the show.
"Get away, you beast!"
The beholder wanted to get closer, but the red-haired demon then swung it, and an invisible shock wave hit the beholder, who was knocked back on the spot.
Looking at the dilapidated throne at this time, it seemed to have restored its original splendor. The blue-haired woman whom I had seen before was sitting on the throne.
She watched the red-haired demon approaching and said softly: "Are you here to witness the last moment?"
"No, I came to say goodbye to you."
The red-haired demon said as if he was troubled: "This is your last chance."
"You know I'm not going back."
The plot is still the same as before, one is trying to persuade and the other is not listening at all.
When the three of them thought that the plot was about over, a burning flame suddenly exploded in the darkness on the right side of the throne, and a strange creature appeared there.
Its whole body was covered with maroon skin, and its muscles were bulging. A pair of huge bat wings were inserted behind its back, and its curved horns poked diagonally at its head.
Under its feet, the flames were like flowing lava, emitting terrible heat.
Aldai said to the others in surprise:
"Barlow the Fire Demon?!"
Among the demons, the highest demon race is the Balor Fire Demon.
This thing is guaranteed to be level 50. Once it appears in the mortal world, it will definitely cause huge panic. It can easily destroy a city.
But what's even more surprising is that after appearing, the Balor Balrog suddenly changed color.
Its flames turned into ice, and its maroon skin instantly turned into bluish-white, like the skin of a dead person. Only the red light shining in its eyes remained unchanged.
Aldai's judgment on it was too conservative. It was true that the Balor Fire Demon was true, but it was not accurate.
"It is one of the demon lords, Ice Lord Granrom..."
Every demon lord is not easy to mess with, and lord-level demons are at least sixty levels. Some of them are particularly powerful, almost as powerful as gods, and some demon lords are even gods.
For example, the monster goddess Lamashtu.
Wait a minute, so there was actually a demon lord involved in the disappearance of the old demon king?
If Aldee remembers correctly, Ice Lord Granrom is a lord loyal to the demon lord Demogorgon. Does that mean that the most powerful demon in the abyss is also involved?
Is it because I can see this scene because I am closely related to Aldai’s ancestors, or...
Aldai looked at Neemia, paying special attention to her red eyes.
The latter pointed at his face, also looking confused.
Are you trying to say that my evil ancestor is the Ice Lord?
No way, right?
