Chapter 290 140. Will return like lightning.
"Is this place as smelly and long as the dungeon?" Darkus muttered in disbelief. He thought he had passed the level, but in the end, this... again What's the fuss about?
Darkus shook his head again, rubbed his eyes and looked over again. His expression became serious. He didn't know whether he was still in an illusion or had broken away and touched the core of this place. The yellow mouse in front of him is not the so-called Pikachu, but a Slann Demon Priest with a yellow appearance. The black dots are just stripes.
As we all know, the appearance of the Slann Demon Priest resembles a toad. Just like there are many varieties of toads, each Slann Demon Priest also has a different appearance, including green, yellow, orange, etc., and various types of toads. A gradient of colors, such as red and blue, yellow and red, etc. Master Ma's skin is a classic reddish-brown color, with golden rune lines on his back.
"You're a little knowledgeable, aren't you?"
After Darkus judged that the person in front of him was the Slann Demon Priest, he walked over, but it was not his fault. Usually the Slann Demon Priest sat on the Chengyu, with his back Leaning on Chengyu. The mummified Slann Demon Priest had met the first Lord Kroka, but Lord Kroka was also sitting on the throne. He and Master Ma also saw the positive side when they were taking a bath in the divination pool. He didn't even see it. He had never seen the Slann Demon Priest's back. If he had been facing him head-on, he would have recognized it at a glance. After all, no matter what color the Slann Demon Priest's body was, his iconic round belly would be the same and eye-catching.
"Hey, don't sleep!" Darkus discovered that the Slann Demon Priest in front of him had not turned into a mummy. The Slann Demon Priest's body was intact as before, and there seemed to be a specific light around the mist, giving the Slann Demon Priest a special light. After lighting up the whole body, he patted the arm of the Slann Demon Priest and said loudly.
Darkus patted it a few times and found that the Slann Demon Priest had not moved yet. He took off his boots, stepped on the Slann Demon Priest's thighs where he was sitting cross-legged, and climbed up to the Slann Demon Priest's round belly with great effort. He put his ear to He stayed attached to the unique two atria and one ventricle of the Slann Demon Priest for five minutes. Just when he thought there was no chance, he vaguely heard the faint beating of the Slann Demon Priest's heart.
"Damn it! It's alive!" Darkus exclaimed. Although he didn't know how many generations the Slann Demon Priest in front of him was from, judging from his rich experience in identifying generations, it couldn't be the fourth or fifth generation. "Damaged products" are guaranteed to be third-generation SR grade.
The reason? It's very simple. When the magical wind of the invasion was strong, Carlos's strength was undoubted. It was impossible to spend so much effort to deal with a weak chicken. If it was a weak chicken, it would be crushed in the first place, just like Carlos in other gods. Temple City does that.
In the current situation where Slann Demon Priests can no longer be produced, every Slann Demon Priest is an extremely valuable asset.
To put it bluntly, Slann Demon Priests are favored for their superior intelligence and magical abilities, and have become strategic nuclear weapons among the Lizardmen. The items rediscovered in the Gods Engine, Sun Engine and ruins are only suitable for tactics and play critical value and power in battle. Moreover, the existence of Slann Demon Priests can not only be reflected in combat, they are also the core of the lizard people, and they are the class that rules the lizard people. Although some are a little pretentious, they all play an indispensable role.
To put it in a joking way, the Slann Demon Priests from the first generation to the fifth generation can be summarized as UR, SSR, SR, R, and N to express the strength and weakness of these five generations.
"My Witch King's Hand, what are you doing?" Malekith emerged from the illusion and saw an incredible scene. His Witch King's Hand took off its boots and lay on the body of the big toad, with a look of madness on his face. After asking, he looked at Dacus carefully. He found that Dacus's expression was not crazy, but a side that he had never seen before. It was a kind of joy from the heart, a There was a joy that could not be concealed by his eyes and expressions. It was the first time that he saw such a real expression on Darkus.
"Live! This is a living Slann Demon Priest! This is a rich reward for our adventure!" Darkus said excitedly and incoherently. After speaking, he reacted, his expression became serious, and his face The complex emotions on his face began to twist, like he was frowning, but also like laughing. He was worried that Malekith would take advantage of this moment to do something that would make him collapse. He looked at Malekith before he could say anything. What.
Malekith shrugged indifferently. He knew what Darkus was thinking, although he now had many things to ask Darkus and wanted to confirm from Darkus' mouth what he saw in the illusion. However, he still suppressed his inner impulse. While he was hesitating, he heard Darkus' words.
"What is your gold?"
"Skrottiz! Anxious gold." Malekith was stunned for a moment after hearing what Darkus said, and then said, he knew that this was Darkus telling him a code, and he was very worried. He quickly thought of something. Maybe Darkus was also caught in the illusion and encountered terrible things in the illusion. That's why he asked him this question and asked him the secret code that only the two of them knew. He smiled softly. Thinking that Darkus was childish, he then asked, "Where's yours?"
"Thig! Lucky Gold."
After that, Darkus kept putting his ear against the Slann Demon Priest's chest. He wanted to listen to the Slann Demon Priest's heartbeat again to confirm that what he heard just now was not an illusion.
Malekith stood there and looked at Darkus quietly, not knowing whether he was lost in memories again or thinking about other issues.
"My Chief Consul, although I don't know what you are doing, I still want to advise you to hurry up. This place is starting to become unstable and there are signs of collapse." After a long time, Malekith said slowly .
"I'm offended." Darkus nodded after hearing Malekith's words. He bowed slightly to the Slann Demon Priest in front of him, and then jumped up in the arms of the Slann Demon Priest. Slap the Slann Demon Priest's big mouth fiercely.
"Damn, I'm really here to achieve feelings." Darkus thought as he fanned his arms from side to side.
After a while, under Darkus' physical awakening, the Slann Demon Priest with a yellow body woke up faintly, his unpredictable and elusive spherical eyes widened, and his broad body was still Ripples in the shock of consciousness.
"Give me another Ash Grub." After a while, the Slann Demon Priest said leisurely.
"Sorry! Not now, but later. This place is going to collapse. We have to get out quickly." Seeing that the Slann Demon Priest had woken up, Darkus jumped directly. There seemed to be no concept of time here, or maybe it was Time is frozen. No one knows whether the Slann Demon Priest in front of him has been sleeping here for a moment, or he has been sleeping for thousands of years from the Great Invasion to the present. Don't show stress reactions to him, he said loudly while holding up his boots.
"You?" After hearing Darkus' words, the Slann Demon Priest finally regained consciousness. He looked at the strange hot-blooded species in front of him with some confusion, and asked slowly.
"Don't get me wrong! Although I am a hot-blooded species, I am Umak of the ancient saint Iqi! There is no time to explain now. Let's leave here first. The second generation Lord Slan Mazdamudi will explain to you about me. Everything." Darkus said anxiously again, because he saw Malekith looking around with his peripheral vision, and he knew that this was a sign of Malekith's uneasiness, indicating that this place was really about to be completely destroyed.
The Slann Demon Priest who heard Darkus' words again did not say anything, but closed his eyes, seeming to be thinking and sensing quickly. The next second, he nodded slowly.
In another second, Darkus, Malekith and the Slann Demon Priest appeared in front of the trio of Drusala and Edreeze.
"How long have we been walking?" Malekith asked directly without waiting for any reaction from the other Druchi.
"Your Majesty, it's less than five minutes! A minute ago, we heard a terrible cry, and then there was a strong wind here." Drusala, who was maintaining the teleportation array, relaxed when she saw her lover and His Majesty the Witch King coming out. tone, she quickly replied after hearing His Majesty the Witch King's question.
"The barrier surrounding this place has lost its effect. The power of reality is closing in on this place. This is a storm of time that will sweep away everything here." When Malekith said the last word, a voice came from beside him. There was a sharp noise, cracks like huge spider webs emanating from the bricks that made up the nearby wall.
"We'd better get out of here now!" After Malekith finished speaking, he looked at Darkus and then at the Slann Demon Priest standing next to Darkus.
"We need to exit this space and go to the continent of Lustria." Darkus nodded to indicate understanding after seeing Malekith's gaze. He turned his head and said to the Slann Demon Priest standing there. After he finished speaking, He was about to turn his head back, but halfway through, he turned his head back suddenly because he saw a Slann Demon Priest standing with his hands tightly clenched in fists and his legs normal.
You must know that this kind of scene is rare in ten thousand years. Although I don’t know what it looked like in the beginning, every Slann Demon Priest is a supreme treasure in the lizardman society, except for the Slann Demon Priest who soaks in the pool. At that time, the skink boys who usually served the Slann Demon Priest would not allow their master to walk on the ground like this. It would be a serious breach of responsibility for them.
Usually, Slann Demon Priests sit on Chengyu, and they have to be carried even if they are mummified after death. Moreover, they are magical creatures and do not need to worry about excretion or problems caused by sitting for a long time. Apart from soaking in the divination pool, they usually only get off the ride under one circumstance, and that is the moment of death.
Although the Slann Demon Priest is still a little confused about the hot-blooded species in front of him, he can really feel the power of the ancient saint in Darkus, the hot-blooded species. To be precise, it is more like an echo. He also knew that now was not the time to study this, as the place was about to collapse.
The next second, a group of Druchi and Slann Demon Priests came to the messy beach. At this time, the heavy rain had subsided, and the sun began to rise slowly in the distance through the dark clouds and rain.
"It's been a long day." Darkus looked up and couldn't help but sigh. He thought of the long day in Bretonnia shortly after he came to this world. He touched The wound on his neck was already showing signs of festering.
"My Ancient Sage! Ancient Sage! This...? This...this...Old Sage! What happened? What is going on?" Qiu was staring at Qiu who was doing nothing and was leaning on the staff and snoring. Pa Keke was suddenly awakened by a wave of magic. He turned his head and looked over, and then saw an incredible scene.
I saw a Slann Demon Priest whom Chupa Coco had never seen before standing behind Umak. The staff in his hand was almost unsteady. His body leaning on the staff swayed as the staff fell. Get up, he said incoherently as he stabilized his body, and after finishing speaking, he ran over rolling and crawling. One was driven by his instinct as a skink priest, and the other was his master respected Mazda. Lord Moody ordered him to come over.
"Shakespati! How... how is this possible?" After watching the stars all night, Lord Mazdamudi, who was taking a nap on Chengyu, suddenly became energetic. He saw the reappearance through Chupa Coco's vision. Umak, and even saw the Slann Demon Priest behind Umak. Qiupa didn't know the Slann Demon Priest, but he knew him, and there was no reason why he shouldn't know him.
That was Shakspati, the second-generation Slann magic priest who mysteriously disappeared during the Great Invasion!
Now, six thousand years after the Great Invasion, Lord Shakspati has returned to the continent of Lustria. What is the concept?
There are only five second-generation Slann Demon Priests in total!
This is a major event that can be written on the lizard people's chronology. In the past, one event might only be included in the lizard people's chronology every hundred years, but this year, two major events happened, and they happened one day before and after. What's even more outrageous is that this year There will be one big event that is bound to happen, and that is the Sunken City, Chapeiuto will rise from the sea, and Lustria will reconnect with the southern rainforests of the Old World.
All of this seems to indicate that the lizard people are about to usher in a new chapter. The stars have arrived, and the era of lizardman has arrived!
"Shakspati is back." Lord Mazdamudi reacted telepathically to Lord Adoshi Tehega and Hua Hua, who were also napping next to him.
The two Slann Demon Priests didn't react at first to this familiar yet unfamiliar name. The next second, Lord Mazdamudi shared Chupa Coco's vision with them. Through the perspective of Chupa Coco, the two Slann magic priests suddenly became energetic. As the second and third generation Slann magic priests, both of them had dealt with Shakspati.
"He was so excited to see you." Darkus pinned down Chupa Coco who was running over, and turned around to explain to the Slann Demon Priest. Then, he looked at Chupa Coco and asked, "Why are you carrying Ash Grubs with you?" After saying that, he raised his head behind him.
"Yes! Yes!" Chupa Coco understood what Darkus meant. He kept nodding and saying, and while talking, he kept taking off the gourd that was straddling his waist.
"Let them gather here. Today's adventure is over. It's time to go back and rest." Darkus continued to order.
Soon after, the Drukis began to gather one after another where Darkus and the others were. They looked at the Slann Demon Priest behind Darkus with some surprise. They did not understand why there was an unsettled person here. The Slann Demon Priest on Chengyu.
Darkus ignored Druch. He did not need to explain the existence of Slann Demon Priest to Druch, and his eyes were also attracted by a strange creature. I saw Ren carefully leading a green beast over. It looked like a cold lizard in terms of body shape, but it did not have the characteristics of a cold lizard, because this green beast had open pleats and a neck that cold lizards did not have. It has the characteristics of an Australian umbrella lizard. Although this beast now looks sick and wilted, these characteristics make it look very intimidating. Upon closer inspection, this beast has a V-shaped crown on its head, green pleats with yellow stripes, and black texture covering its back.
"Isn't this thing capable of spraying poison?" Darkus thought to himself. He also spent some time in the Lustria continent. The giant beasts and wild beasts here are very strange. They are not the same as those from the Cretaceous or Pyrrhic period in his previous life. There are certain differences between the dinosaurs of the Jurassic Period, and some look like the synthetic dinosaurs in Jurassic World.
He didn't know whether the beast in front of Darkus could spray poison or how far it could spray, but he knew that this beast was blessed by the ancient sage Huangqi, because he saw the blessed one in front of the beast's crown. Mark, he could conclude that Ren's trial was to rescue the beast from the hands of this group of skinners, not the majestic majestic scimitar that Genevieve mentioned. That machete might be a Tim. head.
Just when Darkus looked at the beast, the beast also noticed him. He found that although the beast was blessed by Huangqi, it could also communicate with it. Although the beast was not in good spirits after being tortured, His eyes are still so smart and smart, and he seems to have wisdom that those stupid naughty pear children don't have. But it doesn't matter, just like he never robbed Arkadan's Pale Death, he also wouldn't rob what belonged to Ren, as long as the beast didn't spray possible poison on him behind his back.
As for the rest, there was nothing else. Maybe it was because these Druchi dignitaries had seen the big world, or because the Skinner's things were dangerous and disgusting, they were unwilling to seize the loot.
After Umak's personal guards and the giant beasts gathered together again and asked the giant beasts about their wishes, Darkos gestured to the Slann Demon Priest who was still looking in the direction of the tower.
At this time, the tower that existed before has long since disappeared, or there was no tower there before, or the tower there only existed in the river of time, but not now, but these are no longer important.
Although this day passed long, Darkos received a rich reward. The hammer and the spheres he obtained under the water of the Hollow Lake were indeed the weapons of the Slann Demon Priest behind him. Fortunately, he had left behind him I was careful and didn't tell them apart, otherwise it would be so embarrassing now.
The Slann Demon Priest is shaking the hammer in his hand, and the spheres are moving around the hammer, but this seems to be a weapon or a toy, and it is indeed not a miniature universe.
At least Darkus didn't notice it clearly. The world he was in changed from morning to night, from rainy season to dry season, and from winter to summer with the rapid rotation of the sphere. But with the rotation of the hammer and the sphere, the wounds on his neck began to disappear gradually, and he became more energetic. His body, which had been fighting, traveling and running repeatedly, also recovered, but the mental state of his mind was that he wanted to collapse immediately. The feeling of sleeping is still there.
The green and chirping beast that belonged to Renn, the Druchi and the lizard people who had experienced mosquito bites and battles were also recovered.
"There is a divination pool in the pyramid where we are resting. The water there is blessed. After washing, eat something and sleep. We are not going anywhere today. Let's take a good rest." Dak stood in Spica Zuma Square Us waved his hands and said to the Druchs. Then he looked at Malekith who was still there looking at him. He nodded. He knew that Malekith must have something to ask him. He pointed again. Refers to the pyramid where the Slann Demon Priest and Lord Mazdamudi are located.
This is Darkus, who now has a high status in the Lustria continent and can arrange for Druchi to bathe in the sacred divination pool.
The communication between the Slann Demon Priests was very calm. There was no such thing as Lord Mazdamudi jumping down from Chengyu to give him a warm hug. As for what Darkus communicated through telepathy between them, there is no way to know. Maybe Will the entire Slann Demon Priest in Lustria know about the lightning-like return of this Slann Demon Priest?
"How about we change places? I want to take a good bath."
Dacus, who was swimming freely in the fortune-telling pool, learned some key information. The tower did not seem to exist in reality, and there was indeed Carlos there. The remaining echoes there are indeed a crack passage in the Kingdom of the Ancient God.
During the Great Invasion, Carlos reached a deal with an entity in the Kingdom of God, but Carlos was Carlos. Carlos tricked that entity, and the second-generation Lord Slanshakspadi who was teleported was not that entity. Being able to chew, that being constantly borrowed the echoes of Carlos to corrode Shakspati's thinking, but like a dog biting a hedgehog, it could not deal with Shakspati. Although Shakspati was If you are stuck, just sit there and close your eyes, there is no solution!
What's even more confusing is that after Carlos's arrangements, it became more difficult to find there. In the past years, some people may have arrived there one after another, but they never discovered the inner layer there, let alone Darkus and Malekith entered the rift, and only the Nurgle army vanguard, whom Darkus still didn't know his name, discovered the inner layer, but that was all, unless it was the Slann Demon Priest from the first to the third generation. To, or wearing a steel ring on his head can find the unusual Malekith can find.
At this time, Darkus was standing up in the pool and pouring water on Mazdamudi who was soaking there. It may also be because Mazdamudi was in a good mood after Shakespati's return and stretched out his hands to tell the fortune teller. The sacred water of the pool was poured back in response to him.
"Dear Umak, let Shakspati rule Itaza? Or?" After some fun, Mazdamudi opened his mouth and said slowly.
"What do you think?" After hearing Mazdamudi's words, Darkus, who was lying on the divination pool, turned over and stood up. He wiped the water from his face and looked at the other three Slann men. asked the demon priest.
Shakespati and Hua Hua looked at Darkus and nodded, indicating that it was okay.
"The Kauchen Plain? Or the southern rainforest?" But Adohi Tehega, who was not good at words, said at this time.
"Soon, Chapeiuto will rise again. My idea is to first let Lord Shakspati know what happened in Lustria and this world when he was away, and then go to the south. The rain forest needs to be restored to order. Although I have not been there, I learned from the mouths of Druchi who have been there in Druchi society and from documentary records that the decline there may be worse than that of Lustria. It's not bad."
"Druqi has fought with the skinks there more than once, but the important thing is that he has never fought with the lizards! This shows that the lizards are a valuable force surrounding the Slann Demon Priest. In general It means that the Slann lords who rule there use the lizard soldiers as temple guards and the skinks as lizard soldiers. At the same time, the skinks have to bear corresponding social responsibilities." Darkus stood in the middle of the divination pool. He said with a serious expression.
Moreover, the problem of the first city, Itaza, cannot be said to be difficult, but it is also a bit noisy. Although it is the place where the lizard people have the strongest power, it is also the most arrogant.
It is said that it is ruled by the third generation of Slanthroth lords, but it is more like self-governance. Darkus does not think what will happen after Shakespati is gone, otherwise Mazdamudi will not From there, they will be moved to Hesiota in the far north. With the center of gravity of the lizardmen's power in Lustria continent moving north, it will be fine as long as the troops there can still be mobilized by Mazdamudi at critical moments. , everything else will be discussed after the return of the first generation Lord Slankroka.
Darkus believes that Croca will return like lightning after the 5700th anniversary!
"Moreover, what's worse than the southern rain forest are the lizard people on Dragon Island. It is said that the lizard people there are different from those in the southern rain forest. They are more savage, wilder and more fierce. Without the management and restraint of the Slann Demon Priest, Next, the lizard people there have restored their original wildness. This is what we have to solve in the next stage. If there is no way to restore the hatching pools in the Lustria continent, then we can only turn our attention and eyes to the southern rainforests and giants. Dragon Island."
Shakespati looked at the naked Darkus, or Umak, who was standing there. Combining some of what Lord Mazdamudi had told him before, he felt that the times had really changed. Well, at least he had met the first generation Lord Slam Blot Bova before, and now Blot Bova's soul echoed in the sky above this temple city.
Lord Mazdamudi, the second generation of Shakspati, currently rules Lustria, something unimaginable before the Great Invasion. Moreover, he found from his observation that Mazdamudi seemed to trust the hot-blooded Umak who awakened him from that realm. This was even more unimaginable before the great invasion! Is this part of the bigger plan?
The three Slann lords who were familiar with Darkos nodded and agreed with him.
"Is this also part of the big plan?" Shakespati opened his mouth and slowly asked the question he had been concerned about for a long time.
Darkus didn't say anything, but stood and spread his hands towards Shakespati. It seemed that the three Slann lords said something to Shakespati at this time, and Shakespati clicked He nodded in approval.
"There is a more important thing in front of us, Queza!" After seeing Shakespati's support for him, Darkus said solemnly, gesturing with the index finger of his right hand in front of his face.
"I obtained some extraordinary information yesterday. Queza seems to be more complicated than we thought. There seems to be something hidden there that we don't know." After Darkus finished speaking, he brought the gang of skinners to sea. Tuhe sang with Malekith and told the Slann lords present the information he had extracted from the mouths of Nurgle's army leaders.
Just as the Slann lords began to think after hearing Darkus' words, he continued.
"I can say with certainty now! It may be like the tower on the seaside, hiding an extremely secret existence! Otherwise, how can we explain that Queza survived the great invasion, but in the years that followed, the Slann Demon there The priests were killed continuously, until finally Queza quietly and suddenly disappeared mysteriously." "
During the great invasion, it was briefly occupied by Nurgle's servants. However, I immediately organized a limited force to kill those damned people. Chaos drove out and occupied it again, maybe at that time?" Lord Huahua nodded and said, and he was not sure at the end. After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and recalled the situation at that time.
"There may indeed be something abnormal there. Ever since those ratmen came to Lustria, magic wind has been drawn there every time the spiritual network fluctuates. Although the amount each time is very small, I always thought it was This is because Queza is the core of the spiritual network of the Lustria continent." After a long time, when Darkus was about to fall asleep in the water, Mazdamudi said.
"I think it doesn't matter. Now that we know what's going on there, let's go and find out! Tomorrow! Just tomorrow!" Darkus knew that he couldn't delay too long. Malekith was still waiting for him. He poured water on his face to regain his consciousness, then wiped the water on his face and said.
"We worked hard today to prepare a large number of temporary talismans, the kind of talismans that will not be corroded by the disease when worn on the body. The Thousand Rash Giant Cauldron mentioned by the Nurgle Army Front may be their artifact or holy weapon or something like that. The thing, the device to seal that thing must be made in advance." After Darkus saw the Slann lords nodding in agreement with his arrangement, he continued, "The next step is to order the troops, no! It is to order the generals! We The target to deal with is the Chaos Demon and his army, which may be blessed by the wind of magic." "
Maybe tomorrow we will go deep into the underground of Queza, Ku Jia, Tiga, the giant lizard Kami,..." Darkwu Si said while clasping his fingers.
Darkus wanted to recruit Tiktato's generals, but if they went deep underground, Tiktato, as the leader of the Skinks who was good at aerial combat, might not be able to play a big role. Teto Ikau? Should he think about it and let it go? Summon a comet to hit Queza's ground underground? Teto Ikao is too important to Moon City, Talaklan and the Lords of Adohi-Teh who rule there.
Moreover, Teto Ikao has entered his old age. If he is caught in a battle in a narrow place, Darkus will not be able to explain to Lord Adoshi Tehe. Thinking about it, Chupa Coco couldn't take him with him either. He knew that Chupa Coco's fighting skills were unreliable, and Chupa Coco had also entered old age. In his mind, there are not many Skink Priests left who can fight, Coptiti? Pull him down, even if Coptiti is a magic genius, he will not take her with him.
Soon, Darkus settled on Insi-Huzi as the candidate. Although he might not be able to ride his mount, Inxi-Huzi, as the leader of the skinks, has good fighting skills. As for the magic support, he was going to leave it to the sorceresses or Malekith who was willing to go. He was going to take his army of officers, the Druchi, to see the so-called world.
The military book and the running group book say that there are 5 second-generation Shilans
. However, the information I can find so far, the names of the second-generation Shilans are the two in this chapter, and Master Hui.
So... snap!
(End of chapter)
