Chapter 465 Trial of Destruction
“Ultraman Master, why is the last heroic spirit of His Majesty the Holy King in your hands?”
Ariel's tone was serious, her eyes fixed on Amber Xiu.
Amber Xiu said expressionlessly: "Ai Ge gave it to me. We are both members of the Mourning Poets Society, and our relationship is quite good. Haven't you asked about what happened at sea recently? I am helping Ai Ge seize the volcano. control of the sea.”
"I heard it. Although it happens in the deep sea, it is also closely related to us humans living at sea."
Ariel said this, but she still felt a strange feeling inside.
She didn't know what she had discovered, but the sense of déjà vu along the way made her feel something was wrong!
This feeling is very strange. It's clear that nothing is happening, but it just feels restless inside.
Therefore, Ariel couldn't help but ask: "Have you known the master of Silent Night Sea for a long time?"
"It's not too long, oh, considering my status as a dead soul, I have joined the Mourning Poets Society for less than a hundred years. But from a human perspective, we can be regarded as old friends who have known each other for most of our lives."
There was nothing wrong with this answer either, but Ariel's doubts did not disappear.
Something is wrong, very wrong.
But what exactly is the problem?
Ariel was about to continue asking when she saw Arthur Lane pulling out his long sword, pointing into the distance and saying, "You two, I'm afraid now is not the time to chat. There seems to be something in front of you."
The two of them followed Arthur Lane's gaze.
There was originally a fog behind the huge arch, but now, there are large shadows in the fog, as if some huge thing is about to rush out of the fog.
Amber tried to sense it, but found that the black shadow in the mist quickly dissipated, and she didn't know whether it was hiding or leaving.
"It seems that Talos's blessing cannot allow us to walk sideways here. Cheer up, this place may kill people. Your Highness, I don't think you are going to become an undead, right?"
Ariel also understood that now was not the right time, so she could only pick up the hammer again and look ahead warily.
Amberxiu waved his hand and said to Arthur Lane: "Your Majesty, please open the way in front."
Arthur Lane gave a wry smile, without refuting, and strode toward the mist.
Although Arthur Lane was not very good at lying, he could also tell that something was wrong in the conversation just now. He accidentally said the wrong thing and made Amberxiu start to lie to the little girl again. It's better to keep your mouth shut, otherwise this lich can do anything.
Arthur Lane was filled with holy light and strode into the mist.
The holy light is still conspicuous in the thick fog, like a guiding light, leading Amberxiu and Ariel forward.
The three of them were watching their surroundings vigilantly, not letting go of any signs of trouble.
This is perhaps the most powerful trio of warriors and priests in the world.
Arthur Lane is the most famous paladin in history, the absolute choice of the Lord of the Dawn, and the great hero who slayed the dragon tyrant.
Ariel is the chosen one of Talos, a storm priest who holds an artifact.
As for Amber Xiu, he is a master of prophecy and necromancy, and possesses several legendary favors. Perhaps all the mages in the world combined do not have as many tricks as him.
Together, these three people really don't have to worry about any enemies.
However, they never encountered any danger while going deep into the mist, which made the three of them feel like they had exerted too much force.
But it wasn't that he found nothing, as Umbersio soon found the traces left by the Githyanki.
There were many footprints on the heavily weathered ground, as well as a small amount of blood. It was probably that they were carrying the wounded.
They should also have entered from the underground labyrinth. It is unknown how many sacrifices they had to make to get here without the blessing of Talos. Amberxiu simply followed the Githyanki footprints and soon came to a huge platform.
This looks like an altar, about two hundred meters in diameter. There are three clear reliefs of lightning on the ground. It is made of the same material as the arch. It can still maintain its original appearance after countless years.
The three lightning bolts are the mark of Talos, and this is obviously the altar of Talos.
Amberxiu turned around and found three lightning marks leading to three different directions. They are three passages built on the water, extending into the depths of the mist.
Unfortunately, Amberxiu didn't know much about Talos's beliefs and didn't understand the differences between the three channels.
Fortunately, they have a devout believer in Talos here.
Although Ariel did not live in ancient times, she knew the meaning of these three lightning bolts.
"This is the emblem of Talos in ancient times. The three lightning bolts should be green, blue and red respectively. However, no one has maintained it for too long, and the colors on it have been completely erased. According to ancient records, the three colors of lightning represent the three There are different kinds of tests, green is disaster, blue is destruction, and red is rage, but I don't know what the specific content is.
"According to my guess, this should be the entrance to the Storm Arena. The warriors participating in the duel need to complete the first sacrifice to the Lord of Storms at this altar, and then choose a direction to enter. After passing the test, they should be able to enter Go to the final arena and compete for the final victory.”
After saying this, Ariel looked at Amber Xiu, who still needed to make the final decision on which path to choose. Amberxiu didn't pay attention to the content of the test, but carefully observed the remaining traces on the three passages, and then he found that two of the passages had Githyanki blood and footprints on them, but the footprints were very messy and a little unclear. Whichever direction they were going, there was no telling how many Githyanki there were.
"Look at these footprints and blood stains. They are interesting."
Ariel asked doubtfully: "Did they split into two groups?"
Arthur Lane said: "No, he should have entered one of the roads, then returned, and chose the second road again. You see, there are more footprints on the passage of the Destruction Trial, and there are more blood stains left behind. . My guess is that the Githyanki chose this path first, but failed the trial so they returned the same way, and then chose the Trial of Fury path.”
Amberxiu nodded and agreed with Arthur Lane's inference.
He is worthy of being a self-made legend. Only those with rich adventure experience can notice such details. Arthur Lane had been traveling before he raised the flag of rebellion and accumulated a wealth of adventure experience.
Although Ariel can be regarded as a young genius, she has always been the princess of the kingdom, so her experience in this area is quite different.
"Then shall we follow?" Ariel asked.
Umbershoe's goal here is to find the Githyanki. Now that the Githyanki have already reached the Trial of Fury, it is only natural for them to pursue them.
But Amberxiu said: "No, I think we can follow the path where the Githyanki failed. Your Highness, Princess, don't forget what the Storm Lord said. He wants us to recreate the gladiatorial fight of the past." Following the Githyanki, whether we kill them all or we follow the Githyanki and pass the trial, this may not be what this **** wants to see.”
The naughty child **** is currently watching the mortals fight with great interest. If Amber follows the Githyanki through the border in a clever way, or attacks them early, I'm afraid Talos won't be happy.
Ariel understood what Amberxiu meant. She was indeed the one chosen by the gods. At this time, she could still understand what the Lord of Storms wanted. Ariel had to examine herself instead. Her heart was in chaos from the moment she entered this place. .
"It's time for me to cheer up, and now I should focus on completing the test of the gods!"
Ariel's expression changed, and the hammer in her hand pulsed with lightning light, seeming to be responding to her inner thoughts.
Umbershoe pointed to the passage where the Githyanki were defeated and said, "Let's choose the test of destruction. If we can deal with the opponents that the Githyanki cannot defeat, I think Talos will be happy."
Ariel immediately admired Amber Xiu. The courage shown by this lich at the critical moment was worthy of Talos's favor.
But in fact, what Umberxiu was thinking was that these three tests were probably about the same difficulty. The road to destruction had already been passed by the Githyanki once, so it should be weakened a bit, and he might be able to take advantage.
Now that they had made their decision, the three of them walked towards the middle passage.
Following a path paved with Githyanki blood, they entered the mist beneath yet another stone arch.
After walking along for about three to four hundred meters, they finally arrived at a huge platform from the narrow water channel.
The moment they stepped onto the platform, violent thunder fell from the sky and struck all around.
Except for the relatively stable time intervals, these lightning flashes have no pattern at all.
Thinking about this trial of destruction, the duelists were allowed to fight in this thunder.
Amberxiu had put up his mage shield early, and the lightning strikes on his body were neither painful nor itchy. The same was true for Arthur Lane. His body was no longer afraid of ordinary lightning bolts, and he didn't even dodge them.
As for Ariel, her body has long been covered with the light of thunder and lightning, integrating with the surrounding thunder. Not only is she not affected, but she seems to be able to use this power.
God's Chosen is so powerful, and the power of Talos will bring powerful blessings to Ariel.
When the three of them entered the arena, three huge figures fell from the sky.
The loud rumbling sound caused the ground to shake violently, making Amberxiu almost lose his balance. Before they could see clearly what jumped out, a giant hammer was already spinning and flying towards Amberxiu.
This hammer is almost as huge as a carriage. This huge object weighing an unknown number of tons was thrown with a roaring sound. What kind of monster is it?
This giant hammer was constantly struck by lightning during its flight, and the power of thunder gathered on it to emit a dazzling light. If it was hit by this thing, it would probably first turn into pieces and then turn into coke.
But there was no need for Amberxiu to worry. Arthur Lane's long sword had already met the giant hammer. When the sword tip was raised, the thunder hammer flew out diagonally.
Arthur Lane did not spend much effort, but he had already neutralized the thunder blow. This was his swordsmanship that he had practiced for thousands of years.
Only then did they see clearly who was coming.
The three giants, with an average height of more than four meters, held an axe, a hammer and a giant sword in their hands. The fingers of each one were thicker than the thighs of the three of them.
"For Talos!"
The three giants roared, then rushed towards Amberxiu and the others in three directions.
This power is like the headless horseman Gareth charging.
Amber Xiu was dumbfounded. What the **** is this called a trial?
Were all the followers of Talos so brave back then? Who can beat this normal person? !
