Path of light

Chapter 622 623. Byron Thor in Dilemma

In the lounge on the second floor, a group of great magicians set their sights on the great magician Grimes almost simultaneously.

A great magician approached the great magician Grimes and asked excitedly:

"Have you really discovered the magic eye?"

Seeing the proud look on the face of the great magician Grimes, a group of great magicians suddenly became excited.

"Then we have entered the territory of the lich?"

"Well, on the way back, I also met three gargoyles who were killing the elf demon hunters." After the Archmage Grimes finished speaking, he glanced at Roy.

This battle was quite thrilling for him and Roy.

If the two make even the slightest mistake when fighting, or even if there is a lack of trust between them, the gargoyle may take advantage of it...

When the great magicians heard Grimes talking about meeting a gargoyle on the way, they all became energetic. They all gathered around the great magician Grimes and asked him with concern:

"Gargoyles? Level 4 dark monsters? Did you kill them?"

The great magician Grimes took off the silk scarf around his head, took off the magic cloak covering his body, took a cup of fruit tea handed over by his companion, took a piece of elf biscuit and stuffed it into his mouth, and slowly said:

"Well, they were having a meal at the time. They might not be that alert to the dangers around them. I stole one of them, and then we killed the remaining two."

Although Grimes spoke in a more relaxed tone, these great magicians are also well-informed and naturally understand the dangers involved...

A great magician who had a good relationship with Grimes put his arm around his shoulders and sighed:

"Grimes, you are really... quite capable. When you met three level-4 dark monsters in a dark place, you didn't turn around and leave immediately. Instead, you directly chose to defeat them one by one. You are really confident. of."

Another great magician also interjected:

"That's right, Grimes, you should explain the entire battle process in detail so that we can learn more. To be honest, I might not even dare to take action when I see a gargoyle alone."

Roy sat in the corner of the rest area without saying a word, eating a plate of fruit in silence.

At this time, Grimes had to deal with a group of companions surrounding him. He took a sip of fruit tea and continued:

"When Roy and I met these three gargoyles, we found that several elf demon hunters were unfortunately killed at the scene. It seemed that they had just died, and the blood on their bodies had not yet dried. The three gargoyles were surrounding them. A corpse, constantly taking out intestines, liver, etc..."

"Grimes, can you skip these cruel and bloody scenes and tell me directly how you defeated them?"

Oppa, who was leaning against the pillar at the entrance to the rest area, interrupted Grimes' bloody description...

Grimes spread his hands with some dissatisfaction and said ruthlessly:

"How else can I defeat them? I will kill one with the ice gun first, and then work with Roy to kill the other two. I must admit that if Roy hadn't helped me, even if I could kill these three gargoyles, I would probably Now I might be seriously injured too."

He paused and then said: "Sometimes there is only a thin line between success and failure. This time we are more lucky..."

A group of magicians looked at Grimes with envy.

"I'll give you a suggestion. If you have the chance, you can recruit a more reliable priest in your team. I think the water magician and the priest are a perfect match!" the great magician Grimes said with confidence.

A great magician sitting next to him said somewhat unexpectedly:

"I've never seen you speak so highly of other professions."

"Then it can only be said that Roy is very strong, and he was able to win the approval of Grimes..."

The great magician who had to stay on the watchtower of the wooden house every day took the opportunity to say:

"Everyone, let's get down to business. I also found traces of the Demon Hunting Group's activities along the way. According to my judgment, they seem to be right in front of us."

Archmage Grimes pushed the empty cup aside and began to discuss with everyone the demon-hunting group that dared to enter Haiti.

…

The magic wooden house was parked next to a huge rock, and it was pitch dark outside.

There is no light in the entire magic wooden house...

Outside Magister Cedric's room, six magisters sat around a round table. On the round table was a mostly blank map. Only the area where the magic wooden house passed was traced by countless lines.

Leah sat on a chair near the door. She didn't need to say anything at this time, because the magic wooden house had successfully arrived in Haiti, and Grimes had detected the magic eye in front, which meant that there must be a Warcraft Lord nearby. .

This means they are not too far away from the Lich.

Before encountering the lich, the six magisters must get together to discuss the 'hunting plan'.

As the only observer of this meeting, Leah huddled on a chair at the door of the conference room, trying to make herself look as inconspicuous as possible...

At this time, Leah heard an old voice saying:

"Let's get started now!"

The Grand Magister who spoke was none other than Cedric.

He has white hair, even his beard is white, and the skin on his face and body is somewhat loose and full of wrinkles.

As he spoke, he felt the temperature around him drop...

Magister Ellaud quickly took over the topic:

"We have now entered Haiti, which is considered a place frequented by Dark Land murderers. Yesterday, we also hit a black magic whale."

He turned his head and looked at the elf girl at the door:

"Leah, have you seen this lich?"

Leah, who was distracted, was startled by Magister Elaud. She quickly stood up and said:

"I only know that there is a lich here, but I have never seen it with my own eyes. I only remember that my mother died here, and there were many famous witchers in the Elise camp. At that time, everyone said that they were captured by Haiti. Killed by a lich at the edge."

Magister Elaud indicated that Leah could sit down...

At this time, Magister Joyce, who had rarely spoken, suddenly said: "We can't let them go out to explore the road anymore. They can easily scare the snake. This time I want to go ahead and explore."

The ‘them’ that Magister Joyce refers to are the great magicians headed by the Great Magician Grimes.

They are usually responsible for exploring the area around the magic wooden house.

Magister Joyce was worried that there would be some mistakes in their investigation, so he decided to go see the lich himself.

Joyce is a wind magician, the most proficient in combat among the six magicians.

"Joyce, let me come. After all, it's easier for me to come in and out."

Magister Jonas, who was sitting opposite Magister Joyce, said, her voice was particularly sweet.

With the help of the power of magic, Jonas Magister has been adjusted to the most perfect state in terms of appearance and voice. Although she is also a water mage, she is also proficient in teleportation magic. Because of this, Jonas Only then did Magister Si take the initiative to investigate the lich deep under the sea.

"After investigating the true situation of the lich, we still need to choose a hunting ground." Archmage Cedric turned his attention to Magister Wesley, who had always been silent beside him.

Magister Wesley is proficient in setting up various magic circles. He quickly raised his hands and said: "Leave this matter to me!"

"I'm here to help."

Magister Dunlop next to him also took the initiative to speak.

Regarding the matter of maintaining the Dark Portal, the six magisters responded very positively.

"Everyone, let's take action now."

Archmage Cedric said with finality.

…

The other great magicians have dispersed, and there are only a few great magicians left in the magic rest area on the second floor.

Roy wanted to take a shower in the bathroom before going to bed, but there were only two bathrooms on the second floor, and both of them were currently in use, so he could only sit in the corner and wait quietly.

There was one orange left on the plate, and Roy was peeling it slowly.

The rich juice in the orange peel splashed out, and a refreshing fragrance suddenly rushed into Roy's nose.

He doesn't like eating oranges very much, but he particularly likes the smell that comes out when peeling them.

The elves like to use apples to make wine, but the wine made from apples is sour. They also like to use oranges to make wine, and they add a lot of honey, so the orange wine is very sweet.

Opelia was lying on the sofa in the lounge area.

The skirt has high slits, revealing her long, round legs.

She lay lazily on the long leather sofa, her narrowed golden eyes passing over Roy from time to time, looking quite like a predator.

There was a glass of tree sap of life on the coffee table, and she would take a sip gracefully every time.

Perhaps they noticed that the atmosphere in the rest area was a bit strange. The two great magicians who originally wanted to sit in the rest area for a while found excuses to leave one after another...

Opelia stretched her neck, glanced at Roy who was eating fruit, and said to Roy:

"Roy, I also want to go outside tomorrow, but I'm not familiar with the outside environment. Can you go out with me?"

"sure."

Roy readily agreed without raising his head.

The corner of Opea's mouth raised, and she glanced at Roy, who was concentrating on eating the last few orange slices. Like a hunter watching his prey dive into the net, the secret joy in his heart was almost written on his face.

Roy wanted to say to Opelia, 'Can you not look so nakedly at others and express all the thoughts in your heart...'

But considering that the other party is a great magician, once he angers her, the rest of the journey may be difficult.

So I thought about it and finally swallowed it.

As for entering the Dark Land together tomorrow, Roy actually knew that after the Magic Wooden House entered Haiti, for the sake of everyone's safety, Magister Elaud began to impose more restrictions on these great magicians. At least Grimes has no plans to go out tomorrow. .

Opea usually stayed with Magister Jonas and almost never went out on reconnaissance missions. Roy estimated that Opea would not have a chance to go out tomorrow.

"See you tomorrow morning."

"See you tomorrow morning then..."

Opelia glanced at Roy proudly, her gaze was like a hook to tease Roy, then turned around and left the rest area.

Roy exhaled when he saw Opelia's figure disappearing at the top of the stairs.

After Grimes secretly told Roy Opea's true age, he had no idea about this silver moon elf grandma who was over 400 years old.

That night, the injunction signed by Grand Magister Cedric came down.

A piece of parchment is taped to the wooden door of the magic wooden house:

'The magic wooden house has entered the territory of the lich, and all great magicians are not allowed to leave the magic wooden house'

Opeia saw the ban on the door and stood at the door for a long time before returning to the room with a bad face.

Roy was lying in the utility room under the stairs, not knowing that he had been hated by Opeia...

On the black sand, a group of second-level elf warriors with dark energy on their bodies hid behind a raised earth slope in a panic.

The blood on the face of the great swordsman Alvin had dried up. He half-crouched on the ground with a broken parchment map in front of him. There were several second-level warriors squatting around him, including Byron Thor.

There were also some elf warriors guarding around...

The great swordsman Alvin wanted to return to the Isness camp along the original route, because almost all the members of the adventure group were infected with the dark energy, and the accompanying priest died a few days ago.

Everyone is now infected with the dark energy. If the dark energy cannot be dispelled in time, it will soon corrode and burn the body...

"That lich has been following us, and we can't get rid of it at all. We have to decide whether to fight or flee. If we keep fighting and fleeing like this, we will probably continue to die..."

An Abyss Walker next to Byron Thor said.

There are some bandages wrapped around the left arm of the Great Swordsman Alvin. His arm is injured...

Everyone has not rested well these days. They are on the road almost every day and flee every day.

There are always elf warriors who fall behind and die at the hands of the lich.

This makes the Great Swordsman Alvin exhausted. He even regrets coming to Golfito Canyon...

Inside the narrow tent, the air is filled with the smell of blood and sweat.

"I think we can't solve the big trouble in front of us just running away like this. Only by doing our best to repel it once can we escape." A second-level strongman next to Byron Thor said.

Great Swordsman Alvin hesitated for a moment, looked at the status of other warriors in the adventure group, and knew clearly that it was not suitable for fighting now.

The priest in the team had died, and no one could dispel the dark aura on their bodies.

The status of the members of the adventure group was getting worse day by day...

"As far as I know, we are currently at the edge of Haiti. As long as we work hard to get out, the lich should not easily run out of the territory..."

Byron Thor also interjected.

He originally wanted to enter the expedition camp deep in the dark land and bring the bones of those dead companions back to the Elf Kingdom, but when he was at the expedition camp of Isness, he could not resist the invitation of Great Swordsman Alvin, so he just followed the crowd and ran here.

But now they met the lich...

They couldn't beat the lich at all, hiding behind the earth slope, and were in a dilemma.

As long as it got dark, no matter how far away they were, the lich would smell the smell and chase them...
