Mercenaries and Adventurers

Kiel, using an ax and a long sword, advanced all the way to the depths of the monster's belly. He had to cut through the fixed peritoneal tissue of many monster organs blocking the way, and then push these huge monster body tissues back.

The closer he got to the penetrating blue-white light organ in the depths, the more uncomfortable Keir felt. The nausea kept coming from his stomach, and his head was also constantly aching.

And the more time passed and the closer he got there, the more uncomfortable he felt.

But just because of this, Keel knew that he had to speed up his steps and movements, after all, that glowing thing was about to blow itself up no matter how it looked.

This must be stopped, otherwise he who stays in the carapace of the monster will definitely end badly. Afterwards, it may be difficult for hunters to find any traces of him in the flesh and blood of Warcraft.

The long sword cut open the peritoneum of the organ blocking the way, and the ax cut off some tiny muscles that were twitching and hindering his progress, and then he finally got close to this magical organ deep in the monster.

Many thick blood vessels connect this spherical light organ, hanging it in a small cavity here, it looks like a spider lying on a web waiting for its prey.

Many luminescent substances are infused into the intermediate organs through these blood vessels, and then the organs transform many luminescent substances and penetrate them in the form of aerosol. These floating luminous substances gathered in this cavity, and as soon as Kiel touched it, it penetrated his armor and touched his body.

"Hiss, it hurts." When Kiel was touched by this thing, he withdrew his outstretched arm as if he had been scalded by coals. With the illumination of these luminous substances here, the light is very bright. He took off the armor glove on his arm, and took a closer look at the skin of the luminous mist that he touched just now.

There is no wound on the skin, and it doesn't hurt when touched with hands. It seems that the pain just now seems to be an illusion.

But Kiel lifted his arm up in front of the visor for a closer look, and the result surprised him.

The place I touched just now, if you look carefully, there is even a faint blue-white fluorescence, but it is not very obvious.

Kiel put down his arm, put on the glove again, raised his head to look at the organ right in front of him, and felt bitter in his mouth.

But he ran out of time, not to mention that he was so close to this light organ, the pain in his stomach became more and more obvious, and his head gradually became dizzy.

The soliloquy of the monster in his ears seemed to be getting clearer and clearer, and he even felt that he could feel the natural emotions of the monster from its words.

The energy mist released by the light-emitting organ not far away was increasing, and the death feeling brought by it made Kiel know that he had no time. I don't know when there will be some bad changes here.

He didn't want to rush up recklessly like a moth to a flame, so he pulled out the dagger first, and threw it towards the light-emitting organ vigorously.

At such a short distance, he naturally has no chance of missing the target. The dagger body of the steel dagger was firmly inserted into the surface of the light-emitting organ, but it was only inserted shallowly, and did not bring about any other changes.

He knew it wasn't enough just by looking at it.

After thinking for a while, Keir made up his mind to die and survive.

Taking a deep breath of the strange-smelling air, Kiel rushed forward, passing through the floating mist energy around the luminous organ. Although it caused great pain in an instant, Kiel gritted his teeth, and the Axes and long swords struck the organ viciously.

Puchi, puchi.

Two consecutive large wounds landed on the luminous organ, and a large amount of luminescent substance filled inside gushed out of the wound, dousing Kiel in front of him to the head and face.

He felt as if he was being roasted in the flames, or like dough, being baked and heated in a hot furnace.

"Ahhh!" Unable to bear it any longer, Kiel cried out in pain.

Those luminous substances and the surrounding luminous mist seemed to be like sulfuric acid, causing Kiel who was touched to kneel down in pain on the ground of this cavity.

Keir even felt that his brain seemed to be melted by these things, but he obviously didn't have the ability to accept the pain. His whole body was twitching in pain, and he couldn't complete the action of destroying this thing at all.

He gulps and gulps the air around him, not caring that the glowing mist that he inhales into his lungs after each inhale brings him even more pain, making his lungs twitch and cough.

However, his hands never let go of the two weapons he was holding tightly, even though he was in so much pain that he couldn't even faint.

In the last bit of consciousness left in the pain, Kiel was like a puddle of mud. When rolling on the ground, he could only swing his arms upwards. To hack.

Although it was just an attack caused by the painful rolling, it was enough for the blood vessels in these vital parts.

Many blood vessels close to the ground were cut off by his back and forth attacks, and the luminous substance in the blood vessels spewed out and sprinkled on the ground of the cavity. Soon, Kiel could only lie down in these liquid luminous substances.

But apart from being stimulated more painfully, there is no more change.

Barely adapting to this huge pain for a moment, Keir roared, jumped up from the ground, jumped up and hugged the luminous organ suspended in mid-air, the last consciousness made him wave his arms, and put the last few pieces of the upper part of the luminous organ The roots are still cutting off the blood vessels that carry the luminous substance.

Then, he threw himself on the falling light-emitting organ, and passed out while holding it.

In a coma, his hands and feet twitched from time to time, and his breathing stopped for a while, but he was stimulated by the surrounding luminous substances and luminous mist, and the diaphragm under his lungs twitched to drive his breathing again.

After a while passed like this, the organs of the surrounding monsters gradually stopped working, and the monsters gradually died.

But the dead Warcraft was attracted by an ax held tightly in Kiel's hand, and a small part of its soul was finally bitten off by the ax, and then absorbed into the ax. The long sword in Kiel's other hand was also eager to try, but in the end it was only soaked in the luminous liquid substance on the ground of the cavity, shaking and bouncing for a while, and after realizing that he couldn't do anything, he calmed down helplessly.

But the huge and violent magic power around them is not to be trifled with. They are eroding the only living beings on the scene, performing the last task entrusted to them by the monster.

Until the sound of 'boo', a khaki-yellow light came out from the ground of the cavity, and a goblin with a hat and a big beard who was only one hand high came out sitting on a big snail shell.

It looked at everything around it in surprise, and flew towards Kiel who was lying on the ground cautiously.

Along the way, the surrounding luminous mist still wanted to attack the goblin, but was attracted by the energy storage gems made by the elves that it took out from the snail shell, and all of them flew into the gems.

After a gem is filled and emits a strong blue-white light, the goblin takes out another gem. But it didn't bring many gems, and after all the gems it carried were used up, it could only do it by itself.

The goblin jumped out of the snail shell and landed on Kiel's helmet. He jumped a few times in secret joy, and the helmet slammed when he stepped on it. The goblin didn't calm down until the ax in Kiel's right hand vibrated. , took out a very small paintbrush from the pony clip he was wearing, penetrated Kiel's armor, and began to write and draw on Kiel's body.

While writing something, he muttered dissatisfiedly.

After a while, it got tired again, and made a face at the painful Kiel, as if it was very satisfied with Kiel's pain.

But Keir was eroded by the luminous mist and luminous liquid substance, his breathing became weaker and weaker, and his heartbeat gradually sank.

At this time, a small metal ring flew out from the goblin's car, and this thing suddenly flew to the goblin's head and hit it.

After being taught a lesson, the goblin picked up the knocked-off hat and was very unhappy, because under its hat was a head with few hairs left. The goblin's secret is revealed with the drop of the hat, which makes it jump up and down, flying around by itself in this cavity.

The metal ring ignored the goblin as a whole, illusory for a while, and then fell through Kiel's glove, and put it directly on Kiel's finger.

After venting her emotions, the goblin realized that there was no one else around besides Keir, and immediately put the hat on her head, and tied the hat firmly on the top of her head with a rope that she didn't know where she came from.

Feeling safe, the goblin jumped onto Kiel with peace of mind, penetrated his armor, and used a small pocket paintbrush to write something invisible on Kiel's body.

--

Keel thought he had a dream.

In the dream, he returned to the ancient elf ruins.

But when he looked around, he realized that everything around him could not be called a ruin.

In the channel made of silver metal plates, there is light without shadows.

At intervals, a glowing pedestal can be seen shining.

Kiel even felt that in the entire passage, only one luminous pedestal was enough, and the surrounding silver plates would naturally reflect the light into the entire passage.

But when he touched the things around him, they all felt illusory. When he touched them with his arms, he couldn't feel anything.

Just like a ghost.

ghost?

Yes, am I dead?

Only then did he suddenly recall the previous events, he was in the body of the monster, and the monster seemed to use magic to explode itself because it was defeated?

"So, I am already dead." He said in a low voice.

It feels a little weird, even if he died, he should be near the monster, but why did he return to this elf ruins?

And it's not in the current elf ruins.

Kiel looked at the silver plates that reflected the light around him. There were many subtle light flows on these precious metal plates, not the kind of random light flows, but one could tell at a glance that they were artificially controlled, with fixed Logical energy flow routes.

He squinted his eyes, and felt that he had treated these silver plates as pure precious metals, which seemed a little superficial.

This kind of thing obviously has some other uses, and it is estimated that it is the main purpose. Reflection and precious decoration are only their most superficial functions.

But Keel quickly let out a sigh of relief, thinking that these things are of no use. He is not even sure whether he is alive or dead now.

The only certainty is that everything around is not real. Because the elf ruins are in such good condition, they only looked like this ten thousand years ago.

He stayed where he was for a while, and found it boring, so he walked casually towards the depths of the elf's former secret research base.

If his expectations are correct, the place in front is the main huge underground space for research.

Now this huge underground space is used by him to live in for the bats who spend the winter. I don't know what the meaning of this place is now.

He walked down the passage, and when he got inside, he stood on the edge of the high balcony railing and looked down, but he saw something unbelievable.

A monstrosity of gigantic, bizarre half-vegetal, half-animal rages at the bottom of the Elven Research Base. Opening its teeth and claws, its limbs like vines are constantly grabbing and waving everything around it.

But that's all. After all, the research here is not the weak physique of scientists in his previous life. Each of these elves is a very powerful guy.

Several elves floated in the air, each covered with a thick magic shield, watching the monsters wreaking havoc below, and even chatting closely.

One of the female elves, Kiel recognized, was the one he'd always seen before.

He speculated that the ring that kept him dreaming before probably belonged to this female elf. And it's not something unimportant.

He looked down curiously, and then felt that the distance was too far to see clearly, so he walked around the stairs next to him, looking at it, and walked down slowly.

Those elves were all excited, raising their hands and gesticulating something to chat with their colleagues. Keir estimated that the monster below looked dangerous, but it was not dangerous to the elves at all, which was what excited these researchers.

Are these things closed behind the doors that cannot be opened in the ruins?

It looks okay, it's huge, and its wielding tentacles are nimble and powerful, but that's about it.

Besides, even if this thing is real, it has been at least ten thousand years since it was abandoned from the ruins. For such a long time, countless things have been reduced to ashes.

Just like the huge trees above the elves' research base.

Thousands of years have passed, and only the last ruins of the big tree remain.

The monsters at the bottom who were 'playing around' randomly grabbed any objects placed on the bottom layer, waved, smashed, and threw them. These elves didn't care. After all, they were just daily necessities. The important research base facilities were protected. Looking at the monsters without IQ, they probably couldn't even open the door, let alone destroy the base.

But when the monster's tentacles grabbed a carved stone statue at the bottom of the base, the female elf raised her heart. The stone statue was the stone statue of her hero's father, which was carved by herself after she returned. To her, it was very important. emotional meaning.

But fortunately, the stone statue is protected by the magic power in the base, and it cannot be destroyed by weak monsters at all, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.

But after the monster fiddled with the stone statue for a while, it pulled out a stone sword that was a decoration on the stone statue from her father's stone statue.

This thing is also recognized by the base as part of the base facilities, so within the scope of the base, it is also protected by powerful magic.

After the monster got this thing, it swung it wildly, and the stone sword protected by magic was extremely hard, and immediately scraped a large area around it to pieces.

The other elves looked at the female elf. The female elf patted her head and puffed up her mouth, and she fell down angrily. She released a large amount of freezing air between her hands, freezing the monsters that were not resistant to cold at all, and her tentacles fell to the ground, weak. swinging.

The female elf kicked the frozen monster's tentacles, breaking the apparently green tentacles like vines into pieces, and the stone sword fell down.

Gently twisting the stone sword as tall as her with her hand, the female elf seemed to sense something, and glanced at Kiel who was standing on the stairs beside her.

This glance made Kiel's scalp tingle.

--

Keel, whose scalp was numb, opened his eyes.

Taking a breath, the cold air poured into his nostrils and lungs, which lifted his spirits, and his consciousness immediately became clear.

Opening his eyes, he found that he was in a small tent at this time. The armor on his body had been taken off, covered with a thick animal skin, and the same animal skin underneath.

Turning his head, he found a woman lying beside her. The woman wearing thick and messy clothes seemed to be one of the six people they rescued from the bandit camp.

She was lying on the side, snoring softly, and seemed to be sleeping soundly.

Keel felt all over his body, and was surprised to find that he didn't feel any discomfort in his body. The pain caused by the contact with the luminous mist in the cavity of the Warcraft body before seems to be some memories that cannot be recalled.

He only remembered that he seemed to have jumped on top of that light-emitting organ in the end, and then his consciousness disappeared afterwards.

But judging from the current situation, it seems that he finally prevented the self-destruction of the monster. Of course, it was more about saving himself who was locked in the monster's body.

Getting up carefully, Keel gently wrapped an animal skin around his body, which was only wearing underwear.

He is very curious now, what happened after he passed out.

The sound of someone talking outside the tent~www.readwn.com~ and the sound of young hunters and rescued women singing together.

It sounds like the battle is over.

Keel didn't want to wake up the sleeping woman next to him, opened the curtain of the tent with bare feet, and walked out.

The weather outside was fine, the days of wind and snow had stopped, and there were sunny days. It's just that the temperature is still very low.

Wrapping himself tightly with animal skins, Kiel found that not far away was the huge body of the monster, but some snow had fallen on the body, which looked like a snow-covered hill.

He turned his head and looked around, and found that there was a campfire nearby, and there were five or six simple tents. The hunters gathered around the campfire, roasting work, heating up food or new bows and arrows.

Knight Lanisa's horse also leaned against the campfire to keep warm, but she didn't see where the female knight was.

Across the campfire, several wooden shelves were erected not far away. Interestingly, there were five bandits hanging in the air with their hands tied. Those guys are only on their toes, so they have to work hard to keep their hands from being pulled off, and they have cloth gags in their mouths, so they can't speak out all their grievances, they can only accumulate all the curses, waiting for someone to come save them.

But they all know that no one will come to rescue them. There have been such a series of incidents recently in this winter bandit forest. All the surviving bandit gangs, except for one or two bandits sent out to investigate, will only He hid himself even more secretly, and would never send anyone out again.

Keel looked at the sun above his head, and for the first time felt that this thing, which was very annoying in summer, now looked very kind.

"Huh." Letting out a breath, he shook his head and walked towards the hunters who saw him stand up.
