Throne of Magical Arcana

There was no wind, no vibration, no raindrops, and no stars could be seen in the gray sky. Everything in the Mystery World was frozen and silent, but the blood-red liquid shrouded by the big cross seemed to be vibrating and swaying non-stop. , and the dark red color is in sharp and weird contrast with the black, white, and gray background of the whole world. Even a magician like Lucien, who is good at keeping calm and focused, can't help but feel palpitations.

Lucien took a closer look at the bright big cross, and flipped the "Book of Astrology and Elements" in the Soul Library to the corresponding position for comparison: "This is not like the use of magic locks such as protective magic towers, but rather It seems that most of the power is concentrated to seal something."

Thinking of this possibility, Lucien looked carefully at the shaking blood-red liquid again for a few seconds, then corrected his previous calculation of the location of the magic garden according to the positions indicated by the reflections of the nine stars, and did not hesitate until he got the accurate result. Turn around and run along the path by the lake to the edge of the Black Forest to the west, where there is the nearest magic garden.

Lucien is very curious about what is sealed, but he understands even more that he is not yet an official superpower to approach the legend-level mystical seal, which is courting death. You can't be confused by greed. main purpose.

A faint gray-white afterimage flashed across, and Lucien, who had recovered a lot with the powerful self-healing ability of the moonlight blood, quickly left the path by the lake and entered the "real" Black Forest.

It was extremely quiet, not a single living creature could be seen, and even the leaves showed no signs of shaking.

In this depressing woods, Lucien silently counted the distance, and after ten minutes, he saw a huge building shrouded in black shadows. From time to time, bright lights were pulled out from inside and fell towards Lake Elsinore direction.

Lucien slowed down, holding the "vigilance" long sword tightly in his right hand. The closer he got to the magic garden, the more he dared not relax. The stars, but the formation of a self-circulating magic garden is also a useful supplement. It is impossible not to have magic traps or magic circles that prevent others from breaking in.

The black "bat pituitary gland" appeared on Lucien's left hand, and a silent incantation was uttered, and the invisible fluctuations spread around Lucien as the center, and reflected back when encountering obstacles.

Tall black firs took shape in Lucien's mind, and the scene within a few hundred meters nearby gradually became clear, but the ultrasonic detection could only return the approximate shape, and many strange things that were still and motionless made it impossible to judge what they were , As for living creatures, there is no aura at all.

While checking the magic traps, etc., Lucien moved forward cautiously, and when he got close to a strange thing detected just now, he realized that it was a big black rock with a strange shape, and it was not a dangerous thing.

Slightly relieved, Lucien continued to walk forward.

"There is another strange thing ahead, it may also be a stone..."

Bypassing some of the dense bushes, Lucien, who had dark vision, immediately saw the strange thing.

This is a tombstone carved out of stone. In the Mysterious World, it appears gloomy black and covered with a layer of faint gray haze. Behind it is a small tomb.

A line of pale words is engraved on the tombstone: "The noble and brave Mr. David Shetrion, he became the mayor of the small town of Bonn because he executed many heretic poor people, but he died because he fell in love with someone. Well, Although he fell in love with a man, a man with great strength."

Facing the black and humorous epitaph, the corners of Lucien's mouth twitched slightly. If he remembered correctly, he had seen this tombstone when he sneaked into the small town of Bonn, but it was located in the town's cemetery rather than in the Black Forest: "Could it be that in the Mystery World, the cemetery has moved here?"

In the cemetery behind the burial chamber, there are many black cross tombstones without burial chambers. Against the background of black, white and gray, it looks particularly gloomy and cold.

Lucien glanced at the cemetery, considering that the monotonous black, white and gray mystical world is very suitable for undead creatures, so he turned to the side, preparing to bypass the cemetery.

Although this will delay for several minutes, it is much safer.

Turning around just now, Lucien, who was holding the "vigilance" tightly, once again felt the feeling of standing upright and icy cold, so he swung the long sword behind him without hesitation.

The touch as if hitting rotten wood and a huge force came through vigilance at the same time. Lucien's arms were numb, and he rolled forward with the momentum, and his body quickly turned into moonlight.

After hitting a tombstone on the edge of the cemetery, Lucien bounced to the side and took the opportunity to turn around. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the pale writing on the black cross tombstone:

"I used to be fat, but I'm finally going to lose weight."

A rotten hand suddenly protruded from the slightly raised black and cold soil behind the epitaph that made people laugh, and then a humanoid undead creature covered in rotten flesh, bones exposed, and emitting a stench sat up with the swirling of the soil.

After turning around, Lucien also saw a similar undead creature, the door of Mr. David Shetterion's tomb had been opened!

Lucien turned into an afterimage, vigilantly slashing forward with the long sword, but the undead creature chasing Lucien was very fast, instinctively flashed the long sword aside, and rushed towards Lucien.

The long sword had some strength left, and after making a circular arc, it happened to block in front of him.

After the silent collision, the vigilant long sword shook rapidly, and the power of the undead creature surpassed Lucien by a little bit. At the same time, after smelling the stench and decay, Lucien had a headache, a fever on his forehead, and his body was slightly ache. Numb feeling!

"Ghoul!"

Lucien recognized the type of the undead creature from its sharp teeth and fighting features, which were much stronger than ordinary skeletons.

In this weird mystical world, it is even more comparable to a formal knight. While its speed and agility are not much worse than Lucien's, its strength is slightly better than Lucien's.

The ghoul has the characteristics of an undead creature, and its whole body is covered with a halo of corpse plague and negative energy. As long as it is hit by it, the whole person will be paralyzed and unable to move, and will be infected with the plague.

And if killed by it, one day later it will become a new ghoul.

After recognizing the type of undead creature, Lucien began to swim without coming into direct contact with the first ghoul, while the second ghoul seemed to be weaker than the first, with neither speed nor agility. He could only angrily chase the afterimage dragged by Lucien beside him.

Dealing with the ghouls without intelligence, Lucien gradually gained the upper hand, and was vigilant against the long sword slashing at its body from time to time. Although each time it was like hitting a thick block of wood and couldn't be completely cut off, it also made the ghouls Pieces of the ghoul's rotting muscle fell away.

At the same time, Lucien was preparing the "Brimstone Fire Wall" magic, trying to get rid of the ghouls quickly.

The ghoul became more and more frantic, and suddenly opened his mouth to scream silently.

The screaming did not cause any harm to Lucien, but Lucien saw rotten arms suddenly stretched out from the cemetery, forming a strange scenery with the black cross.

"So many undead creatures?! Is there any one as powerful as this one?"

Lucien took advantage of it's screaming and cast a pale flame in front of him, with a strong sulfur smell.

Then, Lucien fled to the place where he came from without looking back. There are so many undead creatures that he can't handle. If there is another similar ghoul, he probably doesn't even know how it died.

He cut down the second ghoul blocking him with a sword, and Lucien was about to escape when he smelled a strong rancid and disgusting smell.

Another powerful ghoul stood in front of him, and more than a dozen ghouls behind him were climbing up from the cemetery.

Beware of the long sword, Lucien's left hand shone brightly, and three pale ice blades flew out with intense cold.

"Palmela's Ice Blade" hit the ghoul in front of it, leaving deep gashes on its arms, neck and chest.

Being undead, such injuries are not fatal, and they are immune to cold damage!

At this time, the lingering cold breath of the "Flying Ice Blade" quickly condensed a thin layer of ice on the ghoul's body, temporarily freezing it in place.

Immediately after Lucien activated the "Ice and Snow Avenger", he cast the "Ring of Out of Control", and the gravitational force suddenly became a little heavier, causing the ghouls who had circled the "Brimstone Wall" suddenly lost their balance and fell to the side.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lucien dragged out a faint afterimage, passed by the ghoul that was beginning to crack in the ice, and ran towards the way he came.

In the cold and hopeless silence, behind the moonlit Lucien was a large group of rotten ghouls who were emitting foul smells and were chasing wildly.

Lucien was very calm, and began to change directions as soon as he was running away, heading for the magic garden.

There are strong and weak ghouls, and they are slowly thrown away by Lucien. Only two formal knights are still chasing after them. At this time, Lucien has already seen the black gate of the magic garden.

The magic garden is surrounded by black and gray shadows, only the gate can be clearly seen, and behind the gate is a low building, it seems that the only way to enter the magic garden is through it.

This low-slung building seems to be a magic tower whose lower floors have been cut off. It has a pointed black tower top, with a strong ancient magic empire's weird and gloomy architectural style.

Lucien was going to go around a few more times to get rid of the two ghouls, but when he left the dense black forest and approached the magic garden, he suddenly found the strange circular magic circle carved on the gate very familiar.

It is the most basic magic circle of the "Grand Cross Star Frame" fanlock, but a small part is missing, but it has a complete structure in the "Book of Astrology and Elements".

"Specially prepared for your inheritors?" The unrealistic feeling of anticipating partial confirmation rose, and Lucien had no time to hesitate, dragging a gray and white afterimage, and ran towards the gate, holding a tube of mercury in his hand, and his mental power was gathering momentum ready to go.

Just approaching the gate, the mercury turned into drops of white water and flew out, and began to complete the magic circle under the control of mental power.

The incomplete parts are very simple and special. If you don't know the complete structure, even the archmage may have to analyze it for a long time to come up with it, but Lucien, who knows the basic magic circles of the 'Grand Cross' and has already prepared It only took a little time for the lines and structures of mercury to become three-dimensional to be integrated with the original magic circle.

Two ghouls rushed to the back of Lucien, one left and one right. Their unpleasant stench and corpse plague made Lucien slightly dizzy.

The lines of the magic array were all lit up at the same time, the bright light bloomed, and the black door sank into the nothingness behind, revealing a deep and mysterious void.

Lucien gritted his teeth, and jumped in when the palms of the two ghouls were about to grab onto his back.
