Embarrassment of Golden Dragon Tails

According to Sally, after being involved in the turbulence, he immediately caught Hill and did not separate from him.Then, they came here.Unlike Vera and Tails, Sally and Hill came to a long and narrow passage.The end of the passage is full of rubble, and traces of chiseling and divine magic can be seen everywhere.In the passage, numerous white bones are stacked staggered, emitting a cold phosphorescent light at the bottom of the water.According to Hill's judgment, there are at least fifty human skeletons here.And, without exception, all are priests.

Sally felt that there was something wrong with Hill. He was originally taciturn and rarely showed emotion.But at that time, facing the remains of many priests in the dark and turbid lake, for the first time, Hill showed a slight sadness on his face.Also as a priest of the Lord of Shadows, even though death is commonplace, grief is unavoidable in the face of the bones of the predecessors.What puzzled Sally was that under the cover of sadness, he keenly caught the flash of enthusiasm in Hill's eyes.

Sally didn't pursue it. Power is the basic pursuit of every spell operator, and so is the priest.This temple of the Lord of Shadows more than 1000 years ago should have some exciting "legacy."

After Tails' blessing dissipated, Sally cast a spell for herself and Hill, and after groping along the passage in the water for a while, they finally left the lake and came to the end of the passage.Hill stopped at the end of the passage, looked at the complex runes on the stone wall, and stood quietly.The lake water dripped down his long silver-gray hair and dark purple robe, and soon soaked the ground.Under the dim light, Hill's side profile was like a knife carving, and against his expression, he looked extraordinarily solemn.The wet long silver-gray hair was tangled and stuck to his pale cheeks in a mess, and Sally couldn't help but want to reach out and push the hair off his face for Hill.

At this moment, Hill raised his hand, traced the runes on the stone wall lightly and solemnly, and said in his unique indifferent tone: "They built a wall of darkness here, trying to isolate this passage, in front Find a way out."

"them?"

"Those priests."

"Why?" Sally asked. "What happened here?"

Hill didn't answer, and continued to walk into the darkness.

It didn't take long for them to find the main hall.Hill stretched out his right hand, pressed against the rune on the door, and recited complex sentences in a deep voice.Soon, the door opened silently.

The strong breath of death made Sally very uncomfortable. He suggested to wait for Vera before entering together.But Hill ignored him.After entering the gate, Hill cleared their footprints before walking into the darkness.Although he was very puzzled, Sally didn't ask any further questions and followed closely.

Immediately afterwards, they found the pitch-black egg in the center of the altar.This is the artifact?The staff had been lost in the turbulence. Under the altar, Sally stretched out his hand curiously, cast a detection spell, and tried to study it.

"Don't touch it." Hill's voice was like ice, making Sally feel chills all over. He stopped casting spells and looked at the solemn and indifferent priest.

Hill didn't look at him, stepped up to the altar, went straight to the center, pulled out the dagger at his waist, cut his palm, and covered the egg with his bleeding palm.

The blood flowed down and disappeared on the dark surface of the egg in a blink of an eye. As more and more blood was swallowed by the sacrificial egg, Hill's expression became more and more icy.Seeing something was wrong, Sally rushed to the altar, trying to pull Xier away, separating him from the thing exuding a cold and deathly aura.

However, as soon as it touched Hill's palm, several streaks of black mist suddenly burst out from the pitch-black egg, attacking Sally fiercely.Sally was caught off guard, and the force of death penetrated straight through his body, quickly taking away Sally's vitality.At the same time, Hill's curse fell upon him, gags his mouth, and makes him lose control of his arms.Sally's heart was cold, unless the channeling curse was cast on the subject in advance, otherwise, this kind of spell would never be activated so quickly.

It seems that Hill has premeditated.

The cold death kept taking away Sally's vitality. Before he passed out, Sally saw Hill's eyes for the last time. Those originally azure eyes were covered with a layer of black air. It belonged to the high priest he was familiar with.As if sensing Sally's doubts, Hill opened his thin lips and said indifferently: "I said, don't touch it."

Sally's world went dark.

When they opened their eyes again, Vera and Tails just fell into the trap set by Hill.

"Evil mage, what should we do now?" Sally leaned against the cold stone wall, hugged his knees, and muttered blankly.

"Evil? My dear Sally, that beautiful priest of yours looks much more evil than me." Vera shrugged, half-closed her eyes, thinking, "I've heard of the sacrificial egg, the legend The artifact of the Lord of Shadows. According to records, it has been lost for more than 1000 years. Sally, I should have thought that apart from the Egg of Sacrifice, no artifact of the Lord of Shadows could have such powerful power. "

Sally closed his eyes wearily, and sighed: "Vera, what is this thing? Hill..."

"The Sacrificial Egg, just like its name, is bestowed by the Lord of Shadows to obtain powerful power through sacrifices again and again. Priests of the Lord of Shadows have used it to protect their temples from generation to generation, destroying A powerful enemy. But this artifact is very difficult to control. According to the records of "Shadow of Annihilation", only those who are truly approved by the Lord of Shadows can control it. If not approved by the Lord of Shadows, the Sacrificial Egg will It will stimulate the user's strong hatred, and it uses the user as a medium to absorb the strong resentment and despair of the sacrifice, and become stronger."

"Resentment and despair? Like Kania?" Tails asked.After making sure that the black smoke would not come after him, Tails untied the package that had been tied around his waist, took out three pieces of bacon, and handed them to Vera and Sally.

"Yes, she is a sacrifice to the Lord of Shadows. Through her strong resentment and despair, she used the Black Star Stone brooch as a medium to integrate with the protective barrier supported by the sacrificial egg. As for Hill ..." Vera took the bacon from Tails, took a bite, shook her head, and said indistinctly, "Only the priest of the Lord of Shadows can use the sacrificial eggs. Obviously, he tried to Controlling the artifact, but failed. However, as a high priest, he should be fine now, as long as he doesn't try to resist the artifact. But later..."

Vera didn't say any more, biting the bacon in small bites.

"In the future? What will happen in the future? Don't be fooled, evil mage, tell me clearly!" Sally took the bacon and glared at Vera viciously.

"How do I know? If everything was recorded, the book wouldn't be called "Shadows of Oblivion". My dear Sally, if you were really interested, why did you tear up my books in the first place?" What about wicked books'?"

"...Vera Semmeril! You still have the face to mention what happened back then, really good!" Sally said through gritted teeth.

"Sally, what is it, each other."

"Sallyan Chillis." Sally emphasized each word, his emerald green eyes almost bursting into flames.

"That name really suits you. Well. Sally what," said Vera lightly.

"Hey, you two." Tails couldn't bear to interrupt this meaningless dispute, "Don't worry about the past, what should we do now?"

Vera shrugged, "My dear servant, I'm sorry, I don't know. But, I think..." He raised his left hand and shook it, and with his movement, the wide black sleeves slipped down, revealing the string of black Star stone bracelet. "This thing might work."

"Despicable mage, it's mine! You can use it, but don't try to occupy it." Tails warned viciously.

"My dear servant, I think it is necessary for me to remind you that it belongs to you, but you..." Vera smiled and pointed her long and slender fingers at Tails threateningly. "Tals, if everything goes well, as a reward, I can let you try my unique secret skills."

Thinking of the sorcerer's skill, Tails swallowed his saliva, and couldn't help asking: "What secret technique?"

"Baked deer leg with velvet leaves, believe me, you will fall in love with it." Vera approached Tails, raised her head slightly, looked directly into Tails' eyes, and whispered bewitchingly.

Tails took a step back, nodded, avoiding the sight of the mage, imagining the charred outside and tender inside, and swallowed again.
