Act 44 Destroy the Portal (1)
The two were talking when suddenly Carso crawled out of the cellar covered in blood, holding the sword that Bai Gang threw in.
"It seems that my efforts are not in vain."
Bai Gang smiled with satisfaction, but the next moment, Carlosau suddenly turned his head to him, his eyes full of hatred.
Annu smiled and said, "It's not in vain, and it seems that he has gained something unexpected."
Bai Gang shook his head helplessly and said self-deprecatingly: "It is indeed quite hateful to pull a crazy person back to this crazy world."
Although he was held a grudge, fortunately, Bai Gang himself did not intend to give anything to his reward. The truth that it is difficult to be a good person is the most clear to him who lived in China for two lifetimes.
In his hometown, it is really not good to do good deeds without any slight qualities, otherwise he would be angry to death sooner or later. Therefore, he just saved people as he pleased, neither demanding the gratitude of the rescued person nor paying attention to the other party's resentment.
After killing the ghoul in the cellar, although Cartho was still a little unstable, he was finally able to tell the situation at that time.
The massacre happened two days ago. At that time, the one who attacked Night Raven Castle was a undead legion led by a powerful necromancer. Although the terrain of Night Raven Castle was dangerous, the castle was mostly made of logs and bricks and stones, and was not very strong. It was indeed enough to deal with ordinary undead legions, but the Necromancer actually summoned a skull dragon out!
In less than half a day, the fortress that humans rely on to resist was smashed to pieces by the bone dragon.
There is no need to talk about the rest after the protection of the castle. The humans in Night Raven Castle were quickly defeated by the surging army of undead. Only Cartho was knocked unconscious by the baron at the last moment and threw them into the cellar to escape. When he woke up, he saw the zombie ghoul eating his body outside.
After listening to Carso's words, everyone fell into deep thought, only Bai Gang knew nothing about it.
Annu explained: "Bone Dragon is a very powerful undead spirit. Necromancers who can summon these high-level undead spirits are extremely powerful figures and can't be seen easily.
In the past, they didn’t even have the interest to take a look at small places like Night Raven Castle, let alone bringing a bunch of low-level undead to fight siege."
"Is it because the portal was attacked?"
"It is possible that the two previous expedition teams were also resting in Night Raven Castle, and it is likely that they were retaliated because of this."
…………………………
Although Cartho obviously did not want to go to the undead portal to die, he also understood that it was impossible for him to survive in the wild full of undeads by leaving the expedition team alone. Therefore, no matter how reluctant he was, he could only follow the expedition team and his eyes looked at Bai Gang became more and more hated.
It seemed that Carlsau blamed Bai Gang for all the misfortunes he encountered, but although Bai Gang noticed it, he didn't say anything and just treated him as air.
Bai Gang was very open-minded, but the other party was scared to be crazy. Isn’t it normal for a lunatic to be hostile to someone for no reason? Do you still have to stick to the nerves and help the lunatic correct their views? He doesn’t have this time. Anyway, the other party just glares and lets him stare. If he really dares to take action, Bai Gang will really dare to cut off his head.
With Carlsau, the local snake, leading the way, the expedition team's speed increased significantly. They took a shortcut and rushed to the periphery of the portal of the undead the next afternoon.
In less than two hours, Bai Gang and the others encountered two waves of patrol teams, but they were all a combination of skeleton cavalry and skeleton soldiers. They did not have much combat power except scaring people. The expedition team eliminated them with one charge.
But the closer we get to the portal, the more undead patrols, the stronger the combat power. When we encounter the patrol led by the middle undead, the expedition team did not continue to go deeper.
The reason for doing this is naturally not because I can't beat it, but because these undead patrol teams are led by the intermediate undead. It is not because I can't beat it. It's too late. The night battle of the undead has an advantage, and the intermediate undead has already asked for help. If you accidentally knock down one, you will cause a lot of them. It's better to continue the next day.
The expedition team found a safe place to rest for a night, got up early the next morning and continued to move forward. If everything goes well, you will see the portal in three to four hours.
But obviously the expedition's actions were far from being smooth.
The expedition team had been in place for more than half an hour, and a group of people gathered together to discuss something, fighting red, but no one could convince anyone.
Bai Gang couldn't understand their words, and it was useless to rely on the little bit of information revealed in the words of the mage Annu.
When the group of people were almost quarreling and they all stared at each other silently without saying a word, Bai Gang finally found the opportunity to pull the mage Annu out.
"What the hell are you talking about just now, why did you stop?"
Annu said with a wry smile: "Rasu just used Hawkeye to investigate. He said that he had discovered a very difficult warning magic tower in front of him. If we force ourselves to pass, we will definitely be discovered, but it is impossible to go around. These ghosts are simply crazy! They set up a circle of warning magic towers around the portal! Where did they get so many resources? "
"Precautionary Magic Tower..."
Bai Gang took out his telescope and searched. Sure enough, he saw a tower-shaped building more than three meters high. There was a large piece of red magic crystal embedded on the top of the tower, which should be what Annu called the warning magic tower.
"Are you talking about the thing about two people tall and has a big red crystal?"
Annu said in surprise: "Yes, Rasu said so too! How did you know? I didn't see you using [Hawkeye] just now."
Bai Gang shrugged and handed the telescope in his hand to Annu.
"You use this to see."
Annu sceptically followed Bai Gang's previous appearance and put the telescope on his eyes. Then he was shocked. The telescope in his hand almost fell to the ground without holding it firmly.
Fortunately, he also had Hawkeye. The scene he just saw was very similar to the effect of [Hawkeye], so he quickly recovered.
"Bai Earl, there are so many good things on you! Your alchemy prop can actually block the magic fluctuations of the constant [Hawkeye]. I have never seen such a wonderful thing before!"
Bai Gang laughed and said, "Of course you can't feel magic fluctuations from it, because it didn't use magic at all."
"I did not use magic but achieved the effect of [Hawkeye]!?" Annu smiled and shook his head, "You are really good at joking, but this is not a good time to joke."
