The Shadow of the Crown of Snow [Western Fantasy]

Selene thought that the puppet soldiers in the corridor would make them face a tough battle, but unexpectedly, Gu Yinuo used the yellow talisman paper she took out from her pocket to easily solve these problems that were worse than they encountered before. And fierce puppet soldiers.

Gu Yinuo's greatest achievement during these days in Penglai mainland is the improvement of Taoism.

When she was a member of the Talis Alliance, she also learned something because of her interest and blood, but in the continent of Hindley, even Penglai people are rare creatures, let alone Penglai Taoism. She has worked hard for many years Her research and study were all basic and common sense in Penglai mainland. Just when she went back with Lin Qinghuai's merchant ship, Lin Qinghuai explained in a few words things that she had never understood before.

After arriving in the mainland of Penglai, on the one hand, she allowed herself to settle down, and on the other hand, she begged Lin Qinghuai to guide her more in this area. Lin Qinghuai is also a good teacher, but she couldn't help but be soft-hearted all day long, so she passed on the lineage passed down by her family. Art taught her a lot.

Compared with the divine art of the Hindley Continent, one of the characteristics of Dao art is that it is all-encompassing, it can be advanced, attacked, retreated, or defended. There is never a fixed feature at all. More importantly, it has miraculous effects in dealing with puppet soldiers.

"If only we had a few Taoist experts from Penglai when we counterattacked Frost City." Selene shook her head with a wry smile, and kicked away the puppet soldiers who fell on the ground, "Maybe it wouldn't be so hard. "

"That's not necessarily true. Qing Huai said that their ancestors made a living by exorcising ghosts and subduing demons, and they were best at dealing with zombies. Maybe Hussein's puppet soldiers happen to be the same thing as the zombies in Penglai mainland." Gu Yinuo took back the talisman paper that he hadn't had time to use, and wiped the sweat from his forehead, "I may not be able to help you in other aspects, if you still encounter puppet soldiers, leave it to me."

Fortunately, after solving the few puppet soldiers they met at the beginning, they did not encounter any enemies in the corridor.

The ground of the corridor has a slight slope, leading to the basement deep in the castle.Hecate remembered that when he was still a proton in Yoda City, he had passed through this corridor countless times, and almost every time he wanted to go in, but his body didn't obey. Now thinking about it, it was probably when Hussein left her body. The spell is still in effect, keep her away from here.

"Yinuo's Taoism, Light God, Phoebe, Udulla's Light God Art, and Hecate's Nord Magic." Selene turned around and looked at her companions, "These three add After thinking about it, it still can't compete head-on with Hussein's magic alone."

"This is what the people of Penglai call impermanence." Gu Yinuo stared at his hands and sighed, "I only learned a little bit of Taoism, and I'm not as good as those half-gods and half-immortals in Penglai who are proficient in Taoism." It's so different, but the God of Light and Hecate are here, there should be no one in the world who is better at the magic of light and the magic of Nord than them."

"Speaking of this matter really hurt my self-esteem." The corridor was longer than they imagined, and the God of Light squatted there panting to rest before walking far. Fortunately, there were two of her faithful followers, Yudu Ra can dangle a pure metal scepter, and it is not a big problem to carry a five or six-year-old child on his back. "I have spread my beliefs on this continent for thousands of years, and my believers constitute The most powerful country in the Hindley Continent. Before the appearance of the Talis Alliance, the name of the God of Light represented the truth and the direction of human progress. Others called the northerners who did not believe in me as barbarians. Even so Brilliant, but also no match for Hussein's crazy devour."

Hecate glanced at the God of Light out of the corner of his eye: "I can't blame you, God of Light. Except for what you are born with, the power of the gods comes from the accumulation of believers. I am stronger than you because I had a lot of accumulation in combat before I became a god. Hussein overdraws the believers' vitality and faith to achieve himself regardless of the consequences. When you were born, you had nothing but a ray of light. You You were not born to be on the battlefield. And... you and I are the same in this regard, we all have our own bottom line and principles."

"Sometimes I also wonder, what have we brought about by our adherence to the principles and bottom line? If the consequence of adhering to the principles and the bottom line is to let people like Hussein get the world, then is it really necessary for us to stick to it? Selene seemed to recall the tragedy of the Frost City after the duel between Hecate and Hussein that day. "Whether it's the process of the battle or the result of the battle, it's the people who really suffer."

"Selene, this is the law. Unscrupulous people will become stronger, and it will be easier to leave everyone behind. If he doesn't care about conscience, principles and bottom lines, of course he won't care about others. Condemn him with that. Hussein is like that," Hecate said, "If I also use his way to gain power, then now we don't have to worry about it, I will have far above him. strength. But I don’t want to do that, I have love for this world, or at least, I know that after I do that, I will definitely lose you.”

"Hussein is different from you, and also different from Selene." The God of Light leaned on Udura's back, raised his head and told them solemnly, "The Godhead of the Continent God is restricted and cannot directly interfere with the change of human regime. I didn't dare to hand over this godhood to you, but...Hussein has long since lost his throne as a monarch. According to the laws of this world, he is no longer the emperor of the Nagrand Empire."

"I really hope that the gods have the same set of judgment criteria as the monarch, so that the laws of this world can judge that Hussein is not a god." Hecate snorted contemptuously, "I will make this a must for my career as a god." first thing to do."

Selene hadn't heard Hecate mention "later" in such a light tone for a long time.

"Did you find anything wrong?" Hecate looked suspiciously at the wall beside him and the ground under his feet, "I have felt from the beginning that we have been spinning around in the same place."

Hecate has never really entered this corridor, so he does not know its exact length, but in this regard, everyone trusts Hecate's intuition unconditionally, and it is very simple to verify this, just go straight ahead road.

"Wait a minute, I'll make a mark." Selene drew out her long sword, and left a long scratch on the wall.

They knew without explaining that if this mark appeared in front of them again after a while, then they would be in trouble.

"Don't talk, let me count the time." Gu Yinuo put his right hand on the wrist of his left hand, silently counting his pulse, "Just in case."

So several people walked silently in the dimly lit corridor. The God of Light really hated the oppressive light, so he condensed a few balls of light to illuminate the corridor. He didn't let go of any simple divine arts, and quickly devoured the light ball that had escaped the control of the God of Light as the source of the power of faith.

"Ten minutes." Gu Yinuo still grabbed his wrist, "How big is the castle in Yoda City in total? Counting the distance we walked since we came in just now, we should reach the basement anyway."

"It's probably... it must be now." In order to prevent the power of faith from being swallowed by Hussein, Hecate firmly attached a ball of light to the crescent blade, and she raised her hand to illuminate the wall with the light on the blade. "The mark made by Selene is here."

"Okay, that means we are indeed trapped in this corridor, and the cycle is about 10 minutes. In Penglai dialect, it is called ghosts hitting the wall." Gu Yinuo glanced at the mark, and lowered his hand helplessly, "Should we Why don't I try using Taoism again?"

"It's not just you who want to try it, we all have to try it." Phoebe and Udulla have already raised their scepters, each trying different magic spells, "No one knows what method will really work."

"It stands to reason that this kind of magic should create something similar to an enchantment. As long as the barrier is broken, the magic will naturally fail." Udulla put down the scepter in his hand, "I failed here, Not to mention breaking the barrier, I haven't even touched the existence of the barrier."

"It's the same here." Phoebe put down the scepter with the same disappointment, "I haven't even found any trace of the magic being used, let alone find a way to break it."

"I can feel it." The God of Light who was placed on the ground by Udulla reached out and touched the wall, "The two of you have almost never been in contact with systems other than the God of Light, so you have no sensitivity to such strange magic. It can be said. However, if I want to break it, I still can’t do it with my strength.”

Everyone looked at Hecate in unison.

She shook the crescent blade in her hand: "Where?"

The pure white power of faith gathered on the blade, and the Crescent Blade swung in the direction pointed by the God of Light under the control of Hecate. After the harsh collision sound, the corridor still looked unchanged, but The mark Selene left on the wall disappeared.

"Hey, look back." Udulla pointed behind him, "This magic has been working since we entered the corridor, and we are still standing at the door."

"We can't delay any longer." Hecate leaned over and carried the God of Light on his back, "We can't give Hussein any more time, let's go."
