Chapter 1097: Convergence and Decision
"Costat!"
Ronald called out the maid's name in surprise.
But the surprise that Costa brought to him was obviously more than that.
The maid holding the lantern of the sea to isolate the darkness of the unknown people below did not just come alone. Behind her, there were even many fellow casters who landed on the island together!
The thing is obvious -
although the Great Tomb greatly suppresses the casting of spells, how many spellcasters who can follow Ronald to the island are really simple people?
Relying on their own trump cards or unique skills.
Although their progress was fast or slow, they still explored the maze in an orderly manner.
The battle between Keya and the [Nine Rings Secret Society] caster just now attracted more than just Ronald.
There are others approaching at the same time!
In the end, Ronald's action and the chase between the three seemed to light up a beacon in the maze, constantly attracting everyone to come towards them.
And the final result is the current situation.
Costart, holding the sea lantern in his hand, can completely exclude the darkness in the maze with the power of negative energy ion flames. The casters who kept gathering here naturally followed the maid's footsteps and rushed towards the battlefield!
"..."
"Sir, please forgive Costart for being late!"
Seeing Ronald's figure, Costart quickly ran over holding a lantern, and then knelt down on one knee in front of Ronald.
From the maid's perspective, Ronald had obviously experienced a lot of battles during this time.
As his maid, she has never been with him to help defend against the enemy. This is definitely a huge dereliction of duty!
In particular, Costat's personality model has become more and more perfect in recent years.
Under the emotional condemnation in his heart called guilt and dereliction of duty, Kostat could even experience the unique human emotion of apologizing for one's sins through death.
"..."
"No, Costat! You're not late at all!"
Ronald, in front of the maid, certainly wouldn't condemn the other party for this.
He immediately stretched out his hands to help Costat up, and then said in a clear and sincere tone:
"Even I can hardly resist the threat of the unknown person. Your arrival at such a critical moment is definitely a help. Very busy!"
"The unknown person..." After hearing Ronald's answer, Costart's expression changed.
She had read Ronald's memories, so of course Costant would not miss what Ronald knew.
The maid thought about the series of books called "Tales from Earthsea" in her master's memory.
Immediately, just like Ronald when he first understood the situation he was in, he had exactly the same worries and corresponding thinking results.
"In that case... Sir, then we should find a passage out of the Great Tomb immediately!"
Seeing Costant's nervous and serious expression, Ronald smiled slightly:
"After understanding where this place is, I kept the [Astrolabe] on and didn't dare to turn it off for long."
After responding, Ronald even took the initiative to take Costate's hand and put it on his forehead:
"Come on, Costate, read Take my memory."
"This place can suppress my memory map, but for you, the map in your mind will never be wrong." "
..."
Costate's order to Ronald Absolutely implement it seriously.
So almost as soon as Ronald finished speaking, the maid began to read the relevant memories in his mind.
Although the map recorded in the [Astrolabe] is complicated, considering Costa's ability, it did not take too long to record. But after completing the most important work, Costart realized another piece of information conveyed in Ronald's mind, and his expression became tense for a moment.
"Sir, are you going to let me lead the way?!"
"That's right, Costart." Ronald nodded calmly. In fact, the moment the maid appeared, he had already decided the next action in his mind. "You know my memory, and you should know the danger and terror of the nameless people." "Although there is a lantern in the sea to help us isolate the darkness
. attack, but no one can guarantee that this kind of safety can last until we escape the exit of this ancient tomb." "
So the most rational strategy is for me to attract the attention of the unknown people and deal with them, and you Then seize this opportunity and head for the exit. As long as you leave here, this environment created by magic will naturally disappear."
Ronald said his plan in a smooth tone.
The magicians around him heard his thoughts and chose to remain silent at this moment.
Everyone is a capable spellcaster, and they can all feel how exaggerated the terror bred by the darkness below is, even if there is a Costat holding a lantern to provide them with protection on the road.
But if you really want to leave the hands of such an enemy with confidence...
no one has the confidence.
"..."
In such a solemn atmosphere, only Costat, who put Ronald's safety first, was quite reluctant, so the maid immediately spoke: "
But sir, there is no need for you to serve as bait yourself. Ah!"
"You are undoubtedly the most powerful magician among us, and it is the wisest choice for you to provide protection for everyone."
Ronald looked stunned - Costart retorted because of emotion It's your decision!
Ronald knew in his heart that if he seriously issued an order again at this moment, even if Costate was reluctant, she would obey his order honestly.
This should never be done.
Ronald made a decision in his heart, and then faced the anxious and flustered look of the maid, he held her shoulders with both hands, and then looked directly into Costat's eyes with a calm look:
"Costat, you can also protect everyone, And you did a great job just now!"
The maid opened her mouth:
"Sir, my ability..."
Ronald directly interrupted Costate's unsaid words:
"Listen, Costate. This [ The caster of the "Nine Rings Secret Society" was injured by me, and the first target of the unknown people he summoned was naturally me. So as long as I escape the protection of the Juehai Lantern, the first target this guy will chase will definitely be me. ."
"Then during the time I'm fighting for, you will definitely lead everyone to the exit, right?" "
..."
The maid's expression was extremely uncomfortable.
She finally reunited with Ronald and was ready to pay any price to make up for her previous negligence.
But the reality is that Ronald's order is completely opposite to her idea.
Snap -
At this time, Ronald patted Costat on the shoulder comfortingly.
Finally leaving a smile to the maid, he turned around and went into the dark tunnel on the other side. His agile figure disappeared in the blink of an eye under the light of the sea lantern.
...
"Roar!"
Boom--
not long after, exaggerated sounds and terrifying shouts came from the depths of the large ancient tomb.
Upon hearing these movements, the faces of the spellcasters who stayed in place all changed.
They knew that after Ronald left, there would be a battle beyond imagination. But he didn't expect this movement that seemed to cause the world to collapse.
Ronald...
what kind of thing is he fighting?
Just when people's hearts were agitated, Costart spoke:
"Everyone, please follow me closely."
"We must leave this ancient tomb immediately!"
Costart spoke to everyone, but followed closely. What followed was the maid leaving as fast as lightning.
Everyone quickly followed.
But speaking from the facts -
if it weren't for the huge range of light provided by the Juehai Lantern.
Even these elite spell casters will probably lose sight of this maid soon!
