From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star
Chapter 279: Great Archmage
It is easy to imagine how strong the mysterious killer who made Xie Shien almost unable to escape must be.
With Xie Shien's elusive ability, even if Lu Heng did it himself, he would not be sure to stop him.
If it were someone else, they would probably not even have a chance to run if they met this mysterious killer.
Lu Heng became even more curious about the identity of this mysterious killer and asked, "Can you recognize the identity of this mysterious killer? It would be fine if you can know the race."
Xie Shien shook his head and replied, "I'm not sure."
Then, he pulled Lu Heng aside alone, used mental power to isolate the sound, and said, "But I know what he wants."
Lu Heng raised his eyebrows and asked, "What does he want?"
Xie Shien replied with a serious expression, "He should want the life box on me, so I suspect that this mysterious killer may be related to the lich."
He only told Lu Heng this news, because there were three people including Rong Xincheng here.
Information about the life box must not be leaked, even to the allied team of superpowers.
The more people know, the greater the risk of leakage of this secret.
Once the secret of the life box on him is exposed, it means that his identity as 027 is exposed.
The reason why he can survive the pursuit of the Creator Organization is because his identity has not been exposed. Once his identity is exposed, the Creator Organization will hunt him down like a storm.
After the two exchanged information, they sat back to their original positions.
Xie Shien continued, "In addition, I have another piece of information to provide. This mysterious killer does not seem to dare to approach the city of Kolos. When I was about to reach the outer city, this mysterious killer did not continue to chase."
This situation is very normal. If this mysterious killer is an abyss demon or an undead lich, he naturally dare not approach the city of Kolos.
After all, this is the capital of the Quel'dorei elves. No matter how strong this mysterious killer is, he can't be so crazy to rush into the capital of the elves to kill people.
After all, the elves have not declined to the point where there is no strong man. At least there is a great arcanist Augustus in the city.
Before becoming the queen, the elven queen Orianna was also a genius who was taught by three teachers. Her strength cannot be weak.
Unless the mysterious killer wants to die, he will definitely not dare to approach Kolos City.
…
After everyone exchanged their concerns, Lu Heng asked, "So far, no team of superpowers has entered Kolos City?"
Rong Xincheng shook his head and replied, "I was teleported to the outer city on the third day, and I haven't seen any superpowers enter the inner city so far."
Xie Shien nodded and agreed, "I arrived on the seventh day, and I also didn't see any superpowers enter the inner city."
"In this case, it's a bit troublesome."
Lu Heng glanced at the task panel. So far, the first main task has not been completed.
[Main task 1: Find the Elf King City Kolos and establish diplomatic relations with the elves. ]
From the task information, this task has two steps. The first is to find the Elf King City Kolos, which must have been completed.
The second step is to establish diplomatic relations with the elves.
The conditions for establishing diplomatic relations are a bit vague.
What level of communication is required to complete the establishment of diplomatic relations?
According to the current situation, although the elves have not yet reached the level of hatred towards humans, they are not particularly friendly.
After all, there were looting teams among the last batch of human superpowers recruited, which gave the elves a very bad impression.
It is not so easy to reverse this impression.
The establishment of diplomatic relations in the main task should be completed by meeting the upper elves and resolving the rift between the two tribes.
In short, you must enter the inner city and meet the upper elves.
Moreover, this task is quite special and can be regarded as a collective task.
As long as someone can complete this task, the attitude of the elves towards humans will improve, and it will be much easier for the people behind to enter the inner city.
Basically, if one person completes it, others will follow.
The main tasks of the Abyss Battlefield are usually not difficult.
If you just want to return alive, just stay in the outer city until someone can meet the upper elves and ease the relationship between the two tribes, and then stay in Kolos City until the end of 30 days, and then you can return.
Of course, if everyone thinks so and no one tries, then the first main task will fail collectively.
...
In fact, Lu Heng has a way to enter the inner city, after all, he just killed the lich Dionysus.
This lich knew the secret of the great arcanist Augustus, so the two must know each other.
Moreover, according to Teres, the original owner of the [Magic Secret Book of the Great Arcanist] obtained from Dionysus was Augustus.
In other words, as long as you take the [Magic Secret Book of the Great Arcanist] to Augustus, you will definitely meet this great figure of the elves.
However, this magic secret book is an S-level treasure, and it is a bit painful to give it away like this.
If you don't hand over this magic secret book, Lu Heng has another way, and there is a high probability that he can also enter the inner city.
Lu Heng asked almost all the information he wanted to know, and finally clapped his hands and said: "I roughly know what the situation is. If you want to enter the inner city, come with me tomorrow morning. I will try to see if I can take you into the inner city."
The people present were a little curious after hearing this.
"Is there any way to get in?"
"You will know when the time comes." Lu Heng did not answer and kept it a secret.
...
The next day.
A group of seven people came to the gate of Kolos City. The elf guard stationed at the gate was the same one from yesterday.
As soon as he saw Lu Heng and the others, he said impatiently: "I told you that humans are not allowed to enter the inner city. Let's go."
Lu Heng took out an item, handed it over and said: "Please give this to the great arcanist Augustus, or to his students and subordinates. When he sees this item, he will naturally come to see me."
The elf guards around the gate felt a breath of evil spirits, and immediately drew their weapons and surrounded Lu Heng and his party vigilantly.
Because what Lu Heng took out was Dionysus's phylactery.
This phylactery had been broken by Teres, but the fragments were also valuable.
Not to mention that these fragments were originally phylacteries, just the gems inlaid on them were worth a lot of money.
So Lu Heng picked up the fragments and put them to use now.
"What an evil breath, what kind of monsters are you?" An elf guard captain stepped forward and looked at the few people vigilantly.
Lu Heng explained, "This is a lich we killed, named Dionysus, and these are the fragments of his phylactery. Take these fragments to show your Lord Augustus, he will be willing to see me."
When the captain of the Elf Guard heard the name of Dionysus, he immediately showed a surprised expression on his face, took the fragments of the phylactery, turned around and went in to report.
...
Not long after, the captain of the Elf Guard ran out and said, "Follow me, Lord Augustus wants to see you."
When the three members of Rong Xincheng's team heard this, their eyes lit up.
They have been here for more than ten days, and they have tried every way to get into the inner city.
As a result, Lu Heng went in casually as soon as he arrived, and he took them in with him.
Rong Xincheng sighed in his heart, fortunately he chose to form an alliance with Lu Heng at the beginning. If he had been a little stupid at the time and formed an alliance with Black Field, he would only be able to eat dirt in the outer city now.
The group followed the captain of the Elf Guard and walked into Kolos City, and finally saw the elegance and grandeur of this Elf King City.
The elves are a very elegant race, which is also reflected in their architectural style.
In the city of Kolos, every building is a combination of prosperity and nature.
There are many unknown giant trees planted in the city, with treetops towering into the clouds, covering most of the sky.
The buildings in the city of Kolos are very tall, just like the trees they planted, and each building can be regarded as a palace.
A group of seven people followed the captain of the elf guard, crossed a stream flowing with magical energy, and walked towards the magic tower in the west city area.
In the area of the magic tower, unknown flowers bloomed on the ground, and some magical creatures floated in the air.
Lu Heng knew what this creature was. It was a creature that the Quel'dorei elves liked to raise, called the Mana Wyrm.
Although the word "dragon" is in the name, this creature has no lethality. The word "dragon" in the name is basically the same as the chameleon of Blue Star.
This Mana Wyrm is actually a pet raised by the elves, equivalent to a butterfly in the garden.
Mana dragons suck morning dew from flowers and plants every day, and emit faint light at night, making the night in the city full of fluorescence.
Generally speaking, this kind of mana dragon likes to gather in areas with dense magic energy, and the place with the densest magic energy in the city is naturally the magic tower in the West City District.
A group of seven people followed the captain of the elf guard into the magic tower, and then walked up the spiral stairs.
All the way to the top floor.
The top floor of the magic tower is a spacious hall with a very elegant interior space.
However, Lu Heng only took a glance and felt that the space was a bit wrong.
Because from the outside of the magic tower, the width of the top floor space will not exceed ten meters, but this top floor hall is very spacious, and the width is definitely more than twenty meters.
You can't see ten meters from the outside, but there is twenty meters of space inside.
Obviously, there must be some kind of space array or something like that arranged inside this magic tower, so this strange difference has occurred.
At this moment, in the magic hall, an elf in an arcane robe turned his back to the door and looked at the arcane star map on the north wall of the hall.
After the captain of the Elf Guard came in, he saluted respectfully: "Sir, they have brought it here."
Obviously, this arcanist should be Augustus.
He waved his hand and asked the captain of the Elf Guard to go down.
The captain of the Elf Guard left the magic tower, but Augustus did not turn around immediately.
Lu Heng looked around and saw that the fragments of the life box were placed on a long table in the middle of this magic hall.
After a long time.
The great arcanist Augustus turned around and looked at the seven people present.
Lu Heng and his friends were also looking at him. The two sides looked at each other with complicated eyes.
This great arcanist Augustus looked very old. Although he looked only fifty years old from a human perspective, he should not be younger than Seren in the Elf Clan, and should be more than seven hundred years old.
The great arcanist Augustus observed the few people for a moment and asked, "Who got these fragments?"
Lu Heng took a small step forward and replied, "I got them."
Augustus sighed slowly and asked, "Did you help Dionysus free him?"
He used the word "free" instead of "kill".
After all, for the lich, this way of prolonging life is also a shackle from a certain perspective.
At least for elves, they worship the elegance of life and despise undead like lich.
It's a pity that Dionysus was originally an Elf Arcanist.
In other words, even elegant and intelligent creatures like elves actually want to continue their lives when they know they will die, even at the cost of transforming into a lich.
Augustus then asked: "Dionysus once stole one of my magical secret books, have you found it?"
Regarding this magical secret book, Tyrese had said before that the original owner was Augustus.
Now that he had taken the initiative to ask, it was impossible to hide it.
After all, Tyrese also knows the whereabouts of this magical book, and it would be stupid to lie now.
Lu Heng directly took out the [Great Arcanist's Magic Book], put it on the table, and replied: "I found it. Tyrese and I cooperated to free Dionysus, and he left behind after his death. This magic book."
Augustus reached out and picked up the magical book, looked at it in his hand, and said, "It is indeed the one Dionysus stole."
He sighed, with a hint of sadness on his face, and said: "Actually, Dionysus is a very talented arcanist. Unfortunately, he went astray and chose to study undead magic, and finally escaped from Kolos. , transformed into a lich in the Twilight Mountains."
He held the magic book, considered it for a moment and said, "This magic book originally belonged to me, and I hope I can take it back, but you got it back, and I can't take it back by force.
"So, I'm considering exchanging other items. You can think about it, what do you need?
"As long as it's suitable, I can exchange it for this magic secret book. You think about it."
This thing was originally stolen from Augustus by Dionysus, and now it has been returned to its original owner.
Logically speaking, there is no problem.
Lu Heng was originally worried that he would take it away by force. If he insisted on doing so, there was nothing Lu Heng could do.
Now he is willing to exchange for other things, which is a way that satisfies both parties.
Lu Heng had just arrived in Koros City, and he still didn't know what good things this great arcanist had.
This Abyss Battlefield recruitment has 30 days, so there is no rush to make a decision now.
"I need to think about it for a few days, okay?" Lu Heng asked.
"Of course, I hope you can leave the magic secret book with me. You can take this magic tower badge. With this badge, you can enter and leave the city of Koros at will. Come to me when you have decided what you want." Augustus said, took out a magic tower badge and handed it to Lu Heng.
Lu Heng took the badge and couldn't help but smile.
Although this magical secret book is an S-level treasure and is very precious, if this thing is really to be brought back to Blue Star, it will also need to consume divine energy for law assimilation.
Now get Augustus' Magic Tower badge, which means you can come here to see him at any time.
This will be of great help to the subsequent abyss battlefield missions.
This is the beginning of taking control of the situation. With this badge, you can enter and leave the Elf King City at will, and there are so many things you can do.
After the abyss battlefield is over, you can still exchange a treasure from Augustus, which is a profit no matter how you calculate it.
After discussing the exchange of magic secrets, Augustus continued: "Can you tell me how you found the phylactery of Dionysus?"
When Lu Heng heard this, he was keenly aware of his thoughts.
Because Dionysus said before his death that he knew a secret about Augustus, and it was a secret that could ruin his reputation.
Now Augustus wants to hear what happened before Dionysus died, obviously to confirm whether his secret has been leaked.
Lu Heng did not intend to offend the great arcanist, so he briefly explained what happened, but omitted the part about the "secret".
Moreover, when describing the process, the name "Tyrese" was highlighted, emphasizing that "Tyrese" was also present at the time.
This means: If you still have doubts, go to Tyrese and ask.
After listening to the process described by Lu Heng, Augustus nodded slightly, obviously very satisfied with the process.
Then, he pointed to the fragments of the phylactery and said, "These fragments are full of evil spirits. I need to keep them for destruction. Do you have any objections?"
Lu Heng immediately agreed: "Of course, the gems on it are very precious, which is a pity."
That's right, Lu Heng's words were just asking for money.
This phylactery is inlaid with gems, and it would be a big fortune to cut it out.
Since the great arcanist wants to take it away, he must exchange it for gems of equal value.
After all, to Augustus, this gem was nothing.
Augustus smiled without being angry. He took out a bag and said, "I have some magic crystals here. The value must be more than these gems. I give them to you."
Lu Heng took the magic crystal, thanked him, and then handed it to Su Muyu to put away.
These magic crystals were still raw materials and had not been processed, so they were given to Su Muyu for her to practice with when she had time.
It would be even better if high-level magic crystal jewelry could be made.
Seeing that this opportunity was so good, Lu Heng hurriedly said: "Mr. Great Arcanist, I heard that the elves' inscription skills are the best among many races. My friend is also an inscription master. During his time in Kolos City, , can I ask the elven craftsmen for advice on inscription techniques?”
This request is not excessive. After all, if humans learn the inscription skills, it will not have any impact on the elves. It is a way to pass on the inscription skills.
This matter will not cause any trouble to Augustus. He agreed casually: "Okay, you take the magic tower badge to the gem workshop and find the elf craftsmen there. They will be willing to teach you."
This answer is not limited to Su Muyu alone.
In other words, if Rong Xincheng, Xie Shien and others follow, they can also learn together.
Therefore, Rong Xincheng and the other two were all excited. If they could get the secondary profession of inscription master here, the gains would be great.
So the three of them were more excited than Su Muyu. They couldn't stay for a moment and wanted to run to the gem workshop now.
