Casting spells

"That's right! We have to kill those little wolf cubs! Blood for blood! This is the real justice!" The dwarf clutched his weapon tightly, gritted his teeth and said his plan.

Seeing that his teammates had been blinded by hatred, the half-elf druid finally could only sigh helplessly, shut his mouth and continue walking along the foul-smelling sewer.

After about half an hour, they finally came to a relatively dry cave.

This place is far away from the sewer pipes. It seems to be a secret base dug out by someone or an organization. Not only are there a large number of tables, chairs and beds, but also rows of weapons and armor of different lengths and types.

The werewolf who launched the attack before stood near the relatively empty hole, staring at two beastly eyes, and might pounce on him to attack at any time.

Not far behind the werewolf, stood a beautiful woman dressed as a mage. It was Xini who had been waiting for a long time.

She glanced at the paladin first, and immediately greeted meaningfully: "Welcome, dear Eleanor, I have been waiting for you for a long time, I hope your performance will not disappoint the master too much."

"Who are you? Why did you order the werewolf to attack us? And who is the master you mentioned?" The half-elf druid stopped the companion who wanted to do it directly, with a vigilant look on his face.

"Hehe, you guys came to assassinate the master, and you actually have the nerve to ask me why I attacked you? Could this be the shameless face of the Harper Alliance?" Sydney sneered and sarcastically.

"Damn it! Is that the black dragon?! Does it know we're coming?" The dwarf looked around nervously, as if a terrifying prehistoric beast might jump out of the darkness at any time.

Sydney curled her lips in disdain: "From the moment you entered Luskan, your every move was under the watchful eye of the master. I really don't know how to describe your behavior. Brave? Or ignorant and fearless? If you don't understand the power of your master, you are as weak as ants in front of it."

"So you designed to frame Joey and turn him into an evil werewolf?" Eleanor asked loudly, suppressing her anger.

"You don't know anything at all, do you, poor little one? The master really wants only you, and he wants to see with his own eyes what you look like when you fall. Now, let's play a little game, the master calls it The test of human nature. Let me see how long you can last..."

The voice just fell!

Sydney suddenly raised her hand and snapped her fingers.

Snapped!

Accompanied by a crisp sound, two huge iron cages fell from the sky in an instant, enveloping the dwarves and half-elves who had no time to dodge.

Immediately afterwards, two arrows shot out from the small holes on the left and right walls at the same time, piercing the arms of the two people precisely.

"what!"

"mean!"

……

Sydney ignored the two injured people, and explained with a smile: "Now, let me describe the rules of the game. As you can see, these two people were shot by deadly poisonous arrows. In the next 5 minutes, you A decision has to be made, which of them will live and who will die. The selection process is very simple, you just kill one of them. But if you refuse to make a choice, then when the time comes, they will both be poisoned to death."

"Shameless! How can you do this vicious woman! Don't listen to her! I am a druid! I can..."

Just as the half-elf was yelling and trying to use natural magic to detoxify, one of the werewolves suddenly jumped up and strangled her neck with a thick arm through the iron cage.

The strong suffocation instantly interrupted the incantation being chanted.

Undoubtedly, the detoxification failed.

Seeing this scene, Xini nodded in satisfaction, and continued to say to the young paladin: "You still have 4 minutes. Friendly reminder, due to the damage caused by toxins to the body, the sooner you make a choice, the better. Otherwise I will There is no guarantee that after drinking the antidote, there will be no sequelae."

Eleanor clenched her fists tightly, trembling all over her body, turning her head to look at her increasingly weak companions from time to time.

Although she really wanted to draw out the long sword, immediately kill the vicious woman not far in front, and find the antidote from the corpse.

But the remaining rationality kept reminding him that since the other party stood in front of him confidently, he would definitely not be defenseless.

What's more, mages are notoriously difficult to deal with. Unless you attack a mage suddenly, you must first decipher its various protective magics. If you can't take it in a short time, your teammates will die.

"There are still 3 minutes!" Xini obviously noticed the entanglement and panic in the paladin's eyes, and once again reported the little time left.

"Bah! Despicable human beings! Don't even try to succeed!"

The dwarf struggled to get up from the ground, pulled out the arrow, aimed at his eyes and stabbed it hard, intending to stop the plot from succeeding by ending his own life.

But before the poisoned arrow pierced the eyeball, a figure suddenly appeared in the darkness, snatched the arrow from his hand, and teased with a light smile: "Don't rush to die, dwarf. You think your Is my life still in my hands? No, it belongs to me now."

After all, Zhang Cheng gradually left the cover of darkness and appeared in everyone's sight without haste.

"Master, why are you here?" Xini blinked in surprise.

"Why can't I come? Don't forget, this is a script I wrote by myself." Zhang Cheng came to the paladin's side as he spoke, and sniffed a strand of his long black hair. "Well, the taste of depravity. Believe me, you won't last long. Give up struggling and embrace the darkness completely. Instead of indulging in Tyre's hypocritical and boring preaching, it is better to obtain powerful power by all means. Because of power, you can To implement the justice in my heart, instead of watching the tragedy happen..."

Chapter 488 Fallen Paladin

Without any hesitation, Eleanor responded directly with the magic long sword in her hand that was specially aimed at dragons.

Being too young, she was obviously agitated, maybe it was because of her hot head, she didn't think about the consequences at all, all she could think about was killing the enemy.

But it's a pity that before the dragon-slaying sword could exert its original power, Zhang Cheng stretched out his hand and pinched it in the palm of his hand. The azure blue magic light seemed to form an invisible energy field, completely blocking the sharp blade.

Feeling the strong malice against himself coming from the sword, he couldn't help laughing and teasing: "Poor little thing, do you think the Dragon Slaying Sword can really slay dragons? I can only say that you are too naive! This thing is a piece of cake at best. Magic weapons are no different from those swords with additional damage such as fire, acid, sound waves, lightning, etc. You only need a high-level protective magic weapon to easily handle them. Tell me, who sent you to die?"

"Death?!" Eleanor raised her head, keenly grasping a key word.

"That's right! Don't you know? I am a dragon! A giant dragon standing at the top of the food chain! The power I possess is even feared by legendary mages and goddesses of magic like Erastriol and Kelben. .And what about you? You are just a group of little characters who don't understand what power is, but want to assassinate me with a magic long sword. If this is not death, then I can only say that the Harpers can It is a miracle that he survived to this day."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Cheng let go of the long sword in his hand, and took the initiative to take two steps back.

He did not hide his intentions at all, and exposed the most contradictory aspects of the whole incident.

No one is really a fool!

Although Eleanor has various personality shortcomings, it doesn't mean she can't think.

After contemplating for a while, she realized how many loopholes there were in this operation, especially the high-level people who gave the order did not give specific information about the enemy from the beginning to the end, let alone any support.

Noticing the uncertain expression on the paladin's face, Zhang Cheng pursed his lips, and continued on his own: "Look, even you find that there is a little problem with this matter, don't you? Although I don't know much about what happened inside Harper. What, but one thing can be confirmed, you are abandoned pawns. Maybe it is to test, maybe it is to exclude dissidents. I know you must be very angry now, eager to vent the resentment in your heart. But before that, you You must complete the game just now. There are still 30 seconds left, choose, which cage companion are you going to let survive?"

"Wait! I am willing to make an exchange with you! Tell you who is behind the scenes!" Eleanor interrupted loudly.

"Hehe, sorry, the answer was wrong, you still have 20 seconds." Zhang Cheng bluntly rejected the other party's proposal.

As a person who is good at observing and analyzing mental activities, he already felt that the young paladin in front of him was only one step away from falling, how could he allow him to rein in the precipice.

On the contrary, he still has to push hard.

"Ten seconds!"

"Nine seconds!"

"Eight seconds!"

……

With the final countdown, the two poisoned people had already turned blue and foamed at the mouth, and the half-elf with a slightly weaker physique even stopped beating his heart.
