Chapter 379 The Devil's Ambush
The Old Bone Dragon is missing, the Githyanki are plotting sacrifices, the Llane is being divided... there are many important things in the world for Umbershoe to consider.
But he has more things to care about now.
Amberxiu played with the black ring on his hand many times, but still couldn't fully understand its purpose.
This must be an artifact that can exert the power of the concept **** in the Dragon Tomb, condense a large amount of dark magic power, and also give these magic powers magical properties.
It's just that, no matter how hard Amber Xiu thought about it, he could only use one function.
It is to use this ring to transform dark magic power... But isn't that the instinct of a lich? Amber Xiu is a professional lich, and he doesn't need this ring to transform dark magic power at all.
At most, this ring can transform faster, but the speed is limited.
As for the divine power contained in these dark magic powers, it is too rare. I don't know how many years of accumulation it will take to perform the move in front of the dragon's tomb.
Thousands of years of accumulation were used up by Amber Xiu in one move. This is not a good value for money.
Unfortunately, he quietly asked the president how to use the ring, but the president didn't reply at all.
This president seems to like sleeping very much, and he has been sleeping for decades at every turn. From the time Amber Xiu transformed into a lich until now, the president has only appeared once.
It is estimated that the president will not wake up until the end of the world or new members join.
This is a bit troublesome. Amberxiu can't get the news from the master, so he can only make a little trial and error on his own.
“I don't believe it.”
It is obvious that he can sense the power contained in the ring, but Amberxiu just can't use it. It was like a whole vault was placed in front of him, and Amberxiu didn't even have a lock pick!
This was unbearable, and Amberxiu could only keep trying to use his magic power to communicate with the ring.
Or, it would be more appropriate to say seduction, Amber's magic power kept trying to invade the ring. It's just that the effect is not very good. The ring is still the same as before, and no change can be seen.
Amber Xiu was not in a hurry and simply stuffed the ring into his chest to see when he could crack it.
After Canggu sent the other small bone dragons from the Dragon Tomb to the secret room under the Sleeping Island, everyone took the ghost ship Aige to the island where the other dragons were.
There were only one hundred and two dragons alive in the original clan, and there were not many islands in this sea where dragons could live, so the dragons that originally lived alone were divided into three dragon islands. The sleeping island where the dragon tomb is located is considered the fourth.
The giant dragons that originally lived alone were forced to start living in groups. It took them more than a thousand years to adapt, but it was still difficult to completely change their habits. Even brothers who grew up together would dislike each other as adults. Dragons often fight with each other until they are **** and bloody.
Even some giant dragons couldn't bear it and flew to live on an isolated island in the sea. As a result, they were found within a few months with only a few bones left.
There is no shortage of monsters in the sea, nor is there any shortage of legendary strong men, and there is even more power from the ocean gods. Now they no longer have that powerful king to protect them.
It is precisely because of this existential threat that the dragons temporarily tolerate the solitary nature of their genes and live together.
But more than 1,700 years is indeed too short, and being squeezed onto a few islands is really unbearable for the Dragon Clan.
For this reason, all the dragons are eager to return to that vast land. In that homeland, there are all kinds of creatures that the Dragon Clan can't eat. Instead of just eating fish every day, there is a golden desert there. Under the desert is real golden gold. There are a lot of intelligent life there that can be used as food for the Dragon Clan. Slaves, providing various resources to the dragon... I really want to go back to the past, when the dragon still ruled the continent.
Amberson thinks Arthur Lane is stupid and naive, and this is the important reason.
Human nature determines that all intelligent beings will only remember the glorious times, but will not remember the mistakes they made in that era. No matter which country or race it is, there are only two ways to completely eliminate conflicts.
The first is to eliminate it completely. If one of the parties is dead, there will naturally be no conflict. The second type is complete integration. Once mixed living and intermarriage occurs, there will be no conflicts at all after more than ten generations.
As for any other superficial efforts, they are useless. They just postpone these conflicts for a while, and in a few years, they will fight to the death with different excuses.
In the final analysis, it is just a lack of resources, and the insufficient supplies force various races to compete for each other.
It was because of the emergence of Arthur Lane more than a thousand years ago that the war seemed more just. If the Holy King had not been around, it would probably not be much different from other dynasty changes.
Since it has nothing to do with justice and is just a simple conflict of interests, it can be discussed.
Isn't it just that the island is too small? The World Weaving Technique is best suited to transforming the terrain. With enough land, most of the problems can be solved naturally.
As long as these dragons can get enough, Amber Xiu can sell anything.
However, there is a key question now, which is what happened to the old dragon Severis?
According to normal reasoning, Severis can be regarded as the patriarch who raised this group of giant dragons. No matter how ruthless these dragons are, they will not unite with outsiders to kill Severis.
But there are often a lot of abnormal things happening in this world. If anything happens to Severis, Canggu and Gareth will never let these dragons and Githyanki go. Then there's nothing Ambox can do. They can only reluctantly collect some dragon corpses as support expenses.
It is impossible for Umberto to have a conflict with Gareth over a group of ungrateful dragons. This account cannot be calculated correctly. So, now I hope that the IQ of those giant dragons is online. If they are all mentally retarded, it can only be said that they have a right to die.
Ai Ge was moving towards the largest dragon island. Just after passing through an entire submarine volcano, Ai Ge's speed slowed down.
Ai Ge said to everyone: "There is a situation ahead, and there is a smell that makes me feel sick."
Amberxiu spread his perception and quickly caught the disgusting smell—the stench of the devil.
“It's Isei Rays, and there are quite a lot of them... How could this happen? Is Demogorgon's territory in front of me?”
Demogorgon, the demon prince of the abyss, is a baboon with two heads and many tentacles. There are also believers in Demogorgon in the deep sea, namely those Isis rays. This mutant is so huge that it can be caught and used as a mount, and its blood also contains the toxins of the abyss, which can brew wine to make the undead drunk.
The place where Ixi Stingray lives is naturally Demogorgon's territory. Amberxiu thought that Ai Ge chose to go straight in order to rush, and accidentally broke into Demogorgon's territory.
This is troublesome, because the poisonous blood of the devil will poison the souls of the undead. A small amount is fine, just like being drunk. If a large amount is inhaled into the body, it will seriously damage the soul.
In other words, if you encounter a demon, Ai Ge's ability to directly swallow the skin and bones cannot be used.
“Let's go around it, it's not far behind.” Ambrose said.
But Ai Ge shook his head and said: "We are surrounded. This is an ambush set by them."
As soon as Ai Ge finished speaking, those huge Ixi manta rays surrounded him from all directions.
At first glance, the Isi ray looks similar to an ordinary ray, except that it is much larger. But if you look closely, you will find that the mouth of this Isi ray has several rows of sharp teeth, and there are thick barbed hooks on its back. of tentacles.
This is in line with Demogorgon's aesthetics. A demon without tentacles is as ugly as a human without a nose.
These Isis rays are overwhelming and their numbers are astonishing.
And after they gathered together, a huge whirlpool appeared in the sea, enveloping Ai Ge's body, as if it was trying to tear the giant ship apart with water currents.
Aige did not move. She could maintain the state of traveling in another dimension for a long time, and the simple water flow could not affect her.
But Amberxiu immediately reminded: "The situation is not right, quickly, get out of here!"
"Why?" Ai Ge asked strangely: "Don't you first find out who is behind the scenes?"
The Githyanki came here on the back of the Isei Rays, and here they encountered a large group of Issi Rays ambushing them. This was definitely not something the dragons could do, and someone must be plotting against the people of the Mourning Poets Society behind the scenes.
Ai Ge is very curious, what impact can Ixi Stingray have on her?
Amberxiu said: "It is risky to stay in someone else's ambush circle. As you said, if there are people behind the scenes that we don't know, then they definitely want us to stay here."
Ai Ge agreed with Amberxiu's statement and asked: “Then what should we do now? Break out from the bottom of the sea?”
Ai Ge can travel through the seabed. As long as there is no water at all, he can travel through the virtual state.
Amberxiu shook his head and said, "No, go up!"
Aige said strangely: "But the Yixi stingray can jump out of the sea, but I can't fly. Sneaking is the best way."
This ability of unlimited navigation must be used in a place with water. She is a ship after all.
Amberxiu shook his head and said: "I don't know, but this is my intuition."
Ai Ge hesitated for a moment, and finally said to Amber Xiu: "Okay, I believe you. Get ready, I'm going to speed up!"
After Aige said this, the ghost ship trembled for a while. It was originally suspended flatly in the sea water, but now its bow tilted up and rushed towards the sea.
This is a thousand-meter-deep seabed. It is not easy to rush to the surface, and there are densely packed Isis rays above our heads.
This is not a good choice, but it is the most correct choice.
Just as Ai Ge accelerated his charge upwards, the seabed below suddenly erupted like a volcano, except that what spewed out was not magma, but blood with a filthy smell.
The pus and blood that had accumulated for an unknown period of time spurted out and chased after Ai Ge.
