Half-elf Ranger

Astral Insight?

"This tower is really related to the Insight Organization. What kind of existence is this Insight Organization composed of prophets? What role does it play on the continent?" Thorne looked at the content on the wall and frowned slightly. My heart is full of confusion.

According to the last words of the other party, the high elf wizard who once lived in the high tower in the town of waterfalls can know that he belongs to the time and space insight, and the owner of the tower in front of him belongs to the astral vision.

Thorne remembered very clearly that when he was wandering in the wilderness that night, he met the Nightingale Walker in the Emerald Garden, a mysterious half-elf Druid. Matters concerning the Planar Insight.

Obviously, this mysterious half-elf druid should know that he has had contact with the Insight, and she seems to know nothing about the Planar Insight, but she has a strong interest.

"The time and space insight is lawful neutral, the astral insight is absolutely neutral, and the plane insight is a group of deranged idealists, and their camp is chaotic neutral."

Thorne recalled the female player again, what the goblin wizard Malvasia had explained to him about this mysterious group of prophets.

"What's the connection?"

Thorne, who became more and more confused, finally shook his confused head and walked towards the unknown underground passage. He always felt that these questions might be able to get the answers he wanted in the underground passage.

So Thorne carefully avoided the terrifying rat group and came to the vicinity of the underground passage.

Then he pulled out his long sword, focused his entire body, carefully looked at the entrance of the staircase leading to the underground, and then turned into a hazy figure, walking along the long staircase into the darkness go.

The distance of the stairs is not very long, Thorne walked carefully all the way, and arrived at the destination after about ten minutes.

The entire underground space displayed in front of him was a world shrouded in dark clouds, looking eerie and terrifying, filled with deep darkness and shadows everywhere, like a giant beast that wanted to devour any living being at any time.

Because of his "dark vision" feature, he can only have a visual distance of up to 20 meters in a completely dark space, so he can't see how big the entire underground space is.

However, Thorne let him know that this underground world is probably not as simple as he imagined, based on the icy cold wind blowing from his side from time to time, it is more like a secret base for cultivating something.

Thorne walked forward slowly while feeling the cold negative energy aura wafting, and his inner vigilance increased a little again with the silence.

After all, Alvi, the curious female player two days ago, almost lost her life here.

Suddenly, Thorne, who was walking slowly, felt the slight trembling of the demon in his hand, his expression changed, and he immediately sensed the fatal crisis coming from behind him.

So he turned around abruptly, waved the Demon Slaying Sword that was ready to go, and slashed into the dark shadow.

"boom!"

The sharp blade ripped through the air, but it was suddenly offset by an invisible force. There was no sound of cutting flesh and blood as expected, but it sounded more like it had hit some kind of hard claws.

With the end of the collision, Thorne immediately backed up and distanced himself from the unknown enemy.

"Jie Jie Jie!"

At this moment, a strange night-owl-like voice sounded in Thorne's ear.

Immediately afterwards, a sturdy figure floating in mid-air appeared in his sight, and the other party roared angrily: "Small mortal, you have broken into the territory of the undead king Orbis, you must die!"

"Undead King Orbis?" Thorne narrowed his eyes.

As one of the most powerful demon monarchs in the Abyss, his general information is no secret on the Material Plane.

The main reason Orthus calls himself the undead king is because he created the world's first undead creature, so he is worshipped by all undead creatures and the living who harness the power of undead.

For example, for the most common lich, in the main material world, wizards who want to master the secret technique of immortality and successfully transform into immortal lich must make an equivalent deal with demons, evil gods or other evil beings.

And most of the wizards who intend to transform into lich will choose to find the most powerful undead king, Orbis. Of course, the price they pay is basically swearing allegiance, which also leads to the wisdom of the wizards will be used by Orthus. , indirectly strengthening the power of the undead king.

As one of the most powerful demon monarchs in the bottomless abyss, what he desires most is to make the entire multiverse a dead and dark world suitable for the survival of undead creatures, so that all existences are subject to his will and become eternal, So the undead king has been working hard towards this goal.

"So, on the first floor of the tower, the woman mentioned in the message of the necromancer Winster is very likely to have made a deal with Orgius.

Although it failed, but in this underground world has left the minions of Orthus. ' Thorne thought to himself as he looked at the demonic creature floating not far in front of him.

The only thing that puzzled him was that after the necromancer named Winster left the tower, he said in the message that he would come back again, so has he ever come back?

"Don't worry about it, let's clear up the troubles in front of us. It is very likely that the lord of Twin Towers died in the hands of this demon." Thorne ignored this annoying problem for the time being, but looked at Devil not far away.

Based on the remaining memories of the Immortal Malice that he had absorbed, Thorne immediately recognized the identity of the demon, a burly demon from the bottomless abyss.

The Bulwark is the descendant of some terrifying demon monarchs, a demonic creature created at an ancient **** ritual.

It is said that the birth of the Strong Demon has a close relationship with the undead king Orbis, who is in charge of undead creatures. They are directly under the command of the undead king, and they are lurking in many places in the main material world to perform secret tasks of subverting the material plane.

"Is this a real demon, not a projection? So what role does he play here? What secret mission does the undead king carry out?"

Thorne looked at the bald humanoid creature with pale skin and a strong body in front of him, and saw a pair of rotten wings sticking out from his shoulders, constantly flapping to maintain his balance, the most conspicuous is the third embedded in the middle of his forehead. The only eye is emitting scarlet blood all the time, as if it contains some kind of terrifying energy, so that he dare not look at it too much.

Then Thorne's eyes narrowed slightly, and the sharp blade in his hand involuntarily tightened a little bit. In a simple collision between the two sides just now, although he was not damaged, he still found the claws at the end of the strong demon's arm. Slash marks left by the blade.

That is to say, although their strong fire resistance can be immune to his fire damage, they still can't resist the sharp blade.

As long as it can cause damage, Thorne has a way to keep the opponent here completely.

"Small mortals, face the fear of death!" The sturdy demon's scarlet eyes first glanced at the blade in Thorne's hand with fear, and then slapped the claws cut by the sharp blade, roaring angrily.

Bulky demons are never afraid of combat, and although they are not as proficient in combat as most other demons, they can subdue their foes with their gaze attacks.

- "Supernatural ability: energy-absorbing gaze!"

Immediately afterwards, the third vertical eye on the forehead of the strong demon radiated a strange red glow, piercing the cold darkness and covering Thorne's body at a lightning speed.

In the face of the attack of "Energy Absorbing Gaze", Thorne is naturally clear. If this terrifying supernatural ability is hit and the will save fails, his occupation level will be directly forcibly lowered by one level. recover.

With the 9th-level challenge level of Zhuangshuo Demon, although Thorne is confident that he can pass the will save through the Steel Soul faction martial arts, but this kind of thing related to his own level, in order to prevent accidents from happening, he does not dare to be blindly confident and big.

So at the moment when the strong demon roared, he immediately activated another countermeasure of the Steel Soul Sect, "Walking Before You Care". With the blessing of the "Concentration" skill of the tall 24 points, he instantly predicted that the strong demon "absorbed energy". Gaze" attack trajectory.

Thorne jumped up with his sword and jumped out a distance of more than ten meters, easily successfully avoiding the shrouded area of ​​"Energy Absorbing Gaze".

- "Three-Level Spell: Ray of Exhaustion!"

When Thorne's feet just touched the ground, a cold evil smile came from the other direction, followed by a pure black negative energy ray shot out of the darkness.

Corpse!

After hearing the evil laugh, Thorne immediately guessed the identity of the other party. This is another supernatural ability of the Zhuangshuo Demon. Any humanoid creature killed by him will be transformed into a corpse demon with spellcasting ability.

Then, the corpse monster hiding in the dark and attacking him is likely to be transformed by the lord of Twin Towers Town.

——“Steel Soul School (response skill): Spiritual Body!”

Noticing the unavoidable attack, Thorne unhesitatingly used the Steel Soul faction's counter-attack to make a fortitude saving throw.

The third-level spell "ray of exhaustion" belongs to the necromantic school. If it hits the target and fails to pass its Fortitude save, it will fall into a state of exhaustion within a certain period of time, resulting in the lack of strength to move. Only to be slaughtered.

When the pure black negative energy ray hit him, it quickly spread to his whole body. Thorne immediately felt that all the strength in his body seemed to disappear suddenly, and the sharp blade in his hand almost came out of his hand.

However, with the activation of his coping skills, a spiritual force transformed by the energy of qi instantly began to fight against the eroding negative energy aura, and the ring of the paladin he was wearing also exuded a sacred aura. He was enveloped in his body, constantly dispelling the erosion of negative energy aura.

"call!"

Feeling the power that was lost and found, Thorne let out a long sigh, then clenched his sword tightly, looking directly at the direction that had just attacked him with his icy eyes.

In the thick darkness, Thorne's figure was like an arrow from the string, and a cold wind blew up, rushing at a speed that was difficult to catch with the naked eye.

——“Desert Wind Sect (Strike Skill): Flame Star!”

When Thorne approached an ugly figure, a short sword drawn from his waist suddenly burst into a dazzling white light, and the entire dark space became like daytime under the flash, and the bright and dazzling light illuminated the figure. The ghouls in gorgeous aristocratic costumes were clearly illuminated.

As an undead creature, the dazzling light makes them instinctively fear even if they do no harm.

"Pfft!"

Thorne's long sword in his right hand crossed a scorching fire in the shrill wailing of the corpse demon, and a rancid head crossed a parabola and fell to the ground.

- "See through the invisible!"

When the corpse died, Thorne's movements did not stop at all, and immediately activated the ring of insight he was wearing.

In the thick darkness, the white pearls on the ring like eyes flashed a shimmer, and a sturdy figure waving two claws immediately appeared not far from Thorne.

"Clang clang!"

Thorne immediately greeted the strong demon, and the collision of the sharp claws and the long sword sounded one after another.

The strong demon slapped the two rotten wings on his shoulders vigorously, while waving his sharp claws and roaring angrily.

As the two sides continued to collide, shrieks from the depths of the soul continued to emanate from the colliding blades, and there was a hint of instinctive fear in the heart of Zhuang Shuo Mo.

- "Supernatural ability: energy-absorbing gaze!"

At this time, Zhuangshuo devoured a slash from the half-elf ranger, endured the wound torn open by the blade, and took the opportunity to shoot scarlet blood from the third vertical eye on his forehead, covering the chasing ranger.

When Thorne noticed that the sturdy demon raised his head and roared, he immediately guessed the attacking action the opponent was about to prepare, so he jumped again, avoiding the irradiation of the blood light in advance.

When he landed, the two swords in his hand had been replaced by a composite longbow and a sharp arrow.

"call out!"

Accompanied by a crackling dark purple arc that jumped from the arrow, with a whistling sound of tearing the darkness, it galloped away towards the sturdy demon who turned and ran away.

When the arrow was out of hand, the composite longbow in Thorne's hand was replaced with a long sword to kill demons again, and then disappeared in the package of a cloud of shadow energy.

"Pfft!"

The sharp armor-piercing arrows accurately penetrated the pale skin of the strong demon with a jumping arc, and the tearing pain with the electric shock caused the strong demon to wailing, desperately flapping the rotten wings to the darkness. swept away.

However, a dark shadow appeared strangely in front of him in a cloud of energy, blocking his path, followed by a blade with a demon screaming down from the sky.

The strange whistling sound filled the depths of the strong demon's soul, causing his strong body to tremble, and the wings that were flapping hard stopped abruptly.

"Pfft!"

When he reacted, the sharp blade had already started along the third vertical eye on his forehead, drawing a shocking bloodstain from top to bottom.

"Small mortal, you sabotaged the plan of the undead king Orbis, the great demon king will not let you go!" Before the strong demon was about to die, he uttered a cruel word, and his entire body immediately turned into a pool of filth. of pus.

Just when the light gray soul of the strong demon was about to be teleported to the bottomless abyss, it was suddenly pulled by a strange force, accompanied by a piercing scream, all submerged in the demon mark in Thorne's palm.
