Arcane Journey

Chapter 341 The Ridiculous Ghost Prince
The strong wind blew, causing ripples in the grass among the ruins, and rustling of the tall oak trees. Clouds passed over the surface of the moon, and the moonlight sprinkled on the ruins from time to time, soaking the pale brilliance and dyeing the undulations of the few remaining city walls. shadows.

"found it!"

Agrela, who was standing among the ruins, suddenly opened her pale red eyes, then raised her hand, and a portal lingering with shadow energy appeared in front of everyone.

"Did you just get in like this?" Ecacia saw the ruins of a ruined tower inside through the oval portal, and said, "This is the place where the Elminster tower was destroyed. The space is distorted and chaotic. It might not be that easy to catch up to him in the first place."

"That's right." Agrila nodded thoughtfully, and expressed his conjecture, "But he didn't choose to escape, but hid in the surrounding space. It seemed that he wanted to follow what we did just now. Waiting for us to jump into the trap together."

After he opened the portal, he didn't choose to teleport immediately, because he knew that the cunning mage lord of Mokou Town would never give up the opportunity to break into Arokar's lair easily.

In order to prevent the opponent's trick, he must find a way to get rid of it.

This is mainly for the plan of the Lost Lady, and also to prevent the accident of the dark ceremony. This time, he will never worry about whether Brian's soul can escape.

Although in his opinion, they only need to wait patiently in place and guard Arocar's lair, and the other party will probably come to the door automatically, but this is not what he wants to see.

After all, this may also mean that the opponent chooses to give up temporarily because of fear of their strength, and then joins the battle against the Black Hope Legion led by Sai Luer.

If the armed forces of Shadow Valley really defeated the Black Hope Legion, then even Egrila would not be absolutely sure to deal with the enemies who greeted them.

Especially the 'Crown Wearer' Ilseveri of the Elven Expeditionary Army, and the Elven Mage Srinxi who lived in seclusion in Myth Draenor.

In such an urgent situation, if Brian can inadvertently break into the lair self-righteously, then they will cooperate with the lich inside, and then they should cooperate internally and externally to kill it.

Therefore, under the Eye of Arcana opened by Lamorac, he wants to see what kind of means this person who can kill the black dragon Despiel and destroy the Dark Canyon plan has.

"Then what should we do?" Ecacia asked.

"What should I do?" Agrela raised her eyelids and glanced at him, as if thinking of something, said with a chuckle, "Of course I asked you to go in and explore the way first, and the three of us will arrive later."

At this moment, he has confirmed that Brian is definitely hiding near the ruins of the tower in Elminster and has not left yet. Faced with this situation, he is not in a hurry.

"Let me?" Ecasia stared at Agrela, "Why did you ask me to explore the way? You know that this brat named Brian probably prepared an ambush in advance, waiting for us to jump in together. You let me go there alone, are you trying to avenge yourself? You don’t like women, so I don’t have any hatred for you, do you?”

"Because you are the most flexible among the four of us." Agrela explained to him, "Even if you are really caught in a trap, you still have a way to escape."

Yada on the side nodded approvingly, and the Shadow Sword Saint Oripa, who was leaning against the big tree, silently used the shadow energy to repair his own Ghost Ancient Sword, as if he didn't care about anything that happened next. matter.

"That's what I said." Ecacia nodded stinkingly, agreed with Agrila's words, and continued, "But what if I really fell into the trap and was killed?"

This seems to be a worried word, but the tone of the ghost ranger is very flat, it looks like he doesn't care about his own life or death at all, and when his bright eyes look at Agrila, there is also a hint of expectation .

"If you really die by accident, I promise you, I will help you transform into a lich." Agrila saw through Ecacia's thoughts at a glance, and he took out a scroll and handed it to him:
"According to my knowledge, Brian's best spell is the evocation school, and he is also very skilled in using "Sun Flame Blast", so the moment you step into the portal, immediately activate this scroll. "

As a legendary spellcaster of both Sinnoh and Austrian cultivators, he is naturally aware of the characteristics and weaknesses of the ghost race, and has researched many targeted spells in advance.

"Is this true?" Ecacia took the scroll and looked at Egrila, "Are you really willing to help me transform into a lich?"

"That's right." Agrela nodded slightly, "In this way you can pursue the witch witch openly."

It is very easy for a spellcaster to transform a lich, but Ecacia's profession is a ranger, and he wants to transform him from a ghost into a lich while retaining his full strength. If it was two or three hundred years ago, for Egrila, It is indeed a very difficult thing, but now he has already researched the method of transforming the Shaman Lich, but the materials and resources consumed are too large, and he has not yet invested in the real experiment.

When this mission is over, it's time to try it with Ecacia, he thought while looking at the ranger beside him meaningfully.

"You still know me best." Ecasia patted Agrila's shoulder happily, and chattered endlessly, "When I really become a lich, I will go to Arocar as soon as possible. You have to know, this kind of woman who has been a lich for thousands of years, the emptiness in her heart is so strong that it makes people feel terrible, at this time I will talk to her..."

"Why are you talking so much nonsense, get the hell out of here!" Agrela frowned, kicked Ecacia impatiently, and kicked him into the portal on the spot under the blessing of the spell.

The moment Ecacia stepped into the teleportation array, Brian, who was waiting patiently on the other side, instantly noticed the abnormality, and immediately raised his vigilance and prepared for battle.

He knew that Agrila, the ghost prince, was an extremely cautious caster, and it would be very difficult for him to fall into the trap he had set in advance, so he didn't dare to be careless.

If he was given a choice, he would not want to fight these four ghost princes at all. The battle just now seemed easy, but in fact he was already on the verge of death and struggled back and forth several times.

If it wasn't for the one-time life-saving tool that Azara gave him before leaving, he would have confessed to the ruins of Harsh City.

Seeing that the surrounding space had begun to distort, Brian knew that the enemy was coming soon. Based on his understanding of the Prince of Shadows, he understood that Agrila would never bring anyone in with him, and would definitely be like how he dealt with the half-orcs back then. Just like Manrason, send a clone, or let other princes explore the way.

Just as he expected, with the flickering light of the magic circle, what appeared in his line of sight was actually a living prince of ghosts.

- "Yang Yan burst!"

Seeing this, Brian released the spell he had prepared for a long time without hesitation.

Accompanied by an incandescent ball of light rising in the air, a dazzling flash erupted suddenly, and the scorching heat emitted by the strong light ignited all the weeds in the ruins.

Looking at the effect of the spell, Brian thought that this eight-ring spell, which he had strengthened with various supermagic feats, would at least make him shed a layer of skin even if he couldn't kill the ghost prince.

However, something happened that he didn't expect.

At the moment when the incandescent light ball exploded, the body of the ghost prince who appeared was suddenly surrounded by a bright barrier.

This defensive barrier seems to be composed of countless small reflective chips. The moment it blocked the "Yang Flame Explosion", the crystal barrier suddenly flickered, like countless dazzling high beams, shining on Brian's body at the same time. on the eyes.

Brian's expression changed slightly. In the blink of an eye, he opened the spiritual defense barrier and closed his eyes in time.

At the same time, he did not hesitate to activate his powerful killing move composed of the ninth-level abilities "tornado storm", curse fire vortex, and "arcane storm".

In an instant, a tidal wave of energy surged out of Brian's body, turning into a wild storm, rolling towards the approaching Shadow Prince, successfully interrupting his sneak attack.

Even though he prevented the Prince of Shadow's attack, Brian still felt a dark purple whip made of shadow energy condensed, firmly drawn on his body.

His complexion suddenly became a little strange, because the whip softly lashed against his protective barrier. Although it had no strength, it actually contained a strong mental attack.

Brian's ears were instantly filled with loud screams, his head was in a mess, and the horror images that did not belong to his memory jumped out uncontrollably.

Immediately afterwards, he was shrouded in a large thick shadow, and the dark purple whip was like a tentacle, tightly wrapped around his body, as if to forcibly drag him into the shadow plane.

Shar's Whip!

Brian immediately recognized this spell. This is a legendary spell that only the legendary shadow magic net instructor who believes in the Lost Lady can master. Like his Star Sword, it can be released in advance and used as a weapon, which comes with Various powerful effects.

Feeling the shadow energy surging in the air, Brian knew that he must not indulge in fighting at this time. When Agrila and others arrived, he would not be so lucky to have a teleportation life-saving item.

With a thought, he cast an advanced dispelling spell to dispel the energy that dragged him to the shadow plane, followed by a teleportation spell, and disappeared in place.

Seeing Brian disappear, Prince Ekasia did not chase after him, but looked towards the void on the other side.

"There is no ambush here." Seeing that the three of Agrela arrived late, he conjectured, "This kid wanted to sneak attack on me, and I saw it through in advance."

"I already know." Agrila pondered slightly, and after a magical aura floated through the dark orange lens worn on his right eye, he pointed and opened a portal, "Catch up with me, I want to see Let's see where he can escape."

"Aren't you afraid of an ambush this time?" Ekasia couldn't help asking.

"I have asked Lamorac to scan the entire Valley of Shadows with the Eye of Arcane." Agrila snorted coldly, "His every move is under my control."

After finishing speaking, he stepped in without hesitation, and the other three princes followed closely.

On the other side, just as Brian came to a vast wilderness through the teleportation spell, he instantly sensed the subsequent spatial fluctuations.

He immediately guessed that the reason why Agrela was able to find her escape track so quickly was definitely with the help of the Shadow Tower in the floating city.

He stood in place and meditated for a moment. Through the spiritual link established in advance, he exchanged a few words with Myrcella who guarded the wizard tower, and then appeared in other places in the Valley of Shadows through teleportation.

With Brian's departure, before the figures of Agrila and others emerged from the magic circle, they were once again wrapped in the light of the magic circle, following the disappearing Brian.

Under the dark night, Brian and the ghost princes staged a back and forth chase between teleportation spells.

They have appeared in the ruins of Shadow Valley, Old Skull Mountain, Silver Mirror Mill, Asaba River, Foggy Valley Mountain and many other areas. The two are often Brian just showing his figure, and Agrela and others are close. With the appearance, Brian activated the teleportation spell without hesitation and ran away, and the latter immediately chased after him.

After a dozen consecutive confrontations, Agrila and the others appeared again at Toad Hill in Shadow Valley.

"The sixth child has already started to complain." The second prince Yada said to Agrela, who was frowning deeply, "He said that if the chase continues like this, the energy of the Shadow Tower may not be able to bear it."

"He's farting! I know exactly how much energy the Shadow Tower has." Agrila said with a gloomy expression:
"The opponent is always able to detect our arrival one step ahead of us, and escapes ahead of time. Obviously, he also did it with the help of the wizard tower. Since he wants to play, let's play with him. I want to see who is in the end. I will be the first to fail, so I can take this opportunity to take away his Mokou Town together!"

"Huh? Why is there still a note on this tree?" Agrela was about to follow it, but Ecacia, with sharp eyes, found something unexpected on a big tree not far away.

Agrela frowned and looked over.

He saw the note on the trunk that said: Mr. Agrela, hello, I am curious why you keep chasing me, if you really plan to keep chasing me, please open the second Page.

Only then did everyone see that this note really hides the second page. Agrela showed a puzzled look. After carefully confirming that the note was not dangerous, he waved his hand and turned to the second page curiously:

Why are you so owed, you really plan to keep chasing me, dog?Are you not afraid that I will lure you into a pre-arranged trap, and then take your dog's life?
I really admire you. If you had been unrequitedly in love with Blakes, Ms. Polaris, if you had pursued her so persistently, would you still be single like a dog until now?
Well, since you are a single dog who has lived for thousands of years, if you want to continue chasing him, you must be careful that I will suddenly look back and take your dog's life away!

The cold breeze blows, and the air in Toad Hill seems to suddenly become solidified. The reason why this place is called Toad Hill is that every spring, many toads and frogs will always be left on the river beach submerged by the rising river.

But there are no frogs and toads in the coming winter season, only the four ghost princes silently staring at the note left by Brian.

"Push!"

In the end, after a seemingly long but short period of tranquility, Ecacia ignored Agrila's murderous eyes and couldn't help laughing.
