Blood of Mercury

Chapter 9: Into the Lightless Scar

"It has to be avoided."

Following An Ruosi's words, Claude said without hesitation.

That's a matter of course. It's just a young dragon. If you use a spear with a rope and a dragon hunting crossbow to tear it down from the sky, even three or four bronze rank professionals can try to be a dragon slayer.

But a large part of the reason why dragon life is difficult to deal with is that their huge size combined with the ability to fly is a big killer in itself.

Before the origin of Awakening, the dragon's air raid was close to no solution among creatures of the same order, and it could only dodge but not resist. Even if it was the skimming pterosaur not far from them at this time, if Roland and his party were really set in place by the skimming feature to force a round of aerial raids, it is very likely that there will be no next round...

"What should we do? Shall we go back?"

Roland asked deliberately.

"You can't go back. If the Shadow Pterodactyl comes out for food, and after eating the shadows of the matte trail, it is most likely to go to the dark forest to continue to prey. If we turn back and run into the dark jungle now , most likely hit it head-on."

Kluveen said in a deep voice.

"Then are we going to enter the Lightless Scar?" Claudia frowned and asked, "What if we encounter a more dangerous monster inside?"

"But we have no choice."

Macken emphasized the current situation. As soon as he was reminded, the atmosphere of the team was condensed for a while.

"If you are worried about encountering monsters in the Trace of No Light, then don't worry," Roland said at this moment, "In Trace of No Light, all monsters are blind, and the perception range is extremely low. .Although a person's vision will be suppressed to within three feet, that distance is twice as large as the monster's perception range."

"As long as we wrap the leather boots with cloth, it won't make too much noise. We walk a little slower and walk along the edge of the dull scar, so that we can retreat immediately if we encounter a monster."

Hearing this, An Ruosi asked Roland: "But what if there are other people in the Wuguang Scar? What if we happened to run into a grazing pterosaur when we were retreating from the Wuguang Scar? "

"There can't be anyone in the Dark Scar."

Before Roland could answer, Markan strongly vetoed.

"...Why can't there be someone?"

On the contrary, An Ruosi was taken aback by Macken's attitude and asked very confused. Macken ignored him, just lowered his head and looked like he was thinking about something.

An Ruosi was destined to never get an answer.

Roland's mouth curled slightly.

Why can't there be someone in the Dark Scar? Because other than the player Druids, the silent swordsmen are the people who are most familiar with this road.

As the only area between Kalar's and Bantha with no borders and no sentries, the Stubborn Oak Lock is not as defenseless as it seems.

Banza has established a country for a long time, has a strong military force, and the state religion is the goddess of war. These three things alone make Caral have to guard against them. What's more, the current ruler of Banza, Queen Ivana, although young, has already shown a strong war talent and a mad dog-like momentum.

Roland remembered that two months later, His Majesty went to war with three countries at the same time, making his name as a mad dog spread all over the world. After the White Pagoda collapsed, Bansa was the first force to dare to find a leak in the land where the gods ravaged. Many data emperors on the forum have analyzed it. It was the harvest of that robbery that greatly enriched Banza's heritage, and gave Banza the confidence to upgrade to an empire after the revival of the plague.

To use a few words to describe this person, she is a fanatical war fighter who has a long-term vision and dares to fight. Some people even suspect that she is most likely fighting for the sake of war and simply enjoying war - but that person is only It's just skepticism, not supported by evidence.

Although Ivana has not done anything earth-shattering today, the smell of a madman can be tasted no matter how far away she is. Just to guard against her, Caral must also fortify the borders adjacent to Banza, including the dangerous place of Stubborn Oak Milock.

If you look down from the sky, the entire stubborn oak lock is like a slightly twisted apple, and the area without light marks is like a fruit core, which directly connects Caral and Banza. In order to prevent Ivana from trying to infiltrate Kalar from the Dark Scar, Kalar had already dispatched secret troops to the Dark Scar to station. That unit was the Silent Swordsman, the predecessor of the Dumb Blade Unit.

You must know, the more dangerous the area is in the stubborn oak lock, the weakest monster level in the Dark Scar is also above level 30. Multiple monsters can easily destroy a motley army. However, the strength of the monsters in the stubborn oak lock is inversely proportional to the sight. The skimming creatures have no sense of smell, and can only judge the movement of the prey through sight and hearing.

Just as Roland said, the shadows in the Dark Scar have completely lost their sight, and the silent swordsman with the ability to move silently is like invisible in the Dark Scar.

Therefore, there are a large number of high-level silent swordsmen who have been sneaking and silent in the Dark Scar, patrolling like ghosts, and will not let anyone enter here without permission. After the mission to cut off the ring in the game, those Druids who are unfamiliar with the terrain but rely on their professional advantages to single-dry once they go too deep and stray into the Dark Mark, they will easily be behind the patrolling silent swordsmen. A sneak attack is a direct solution.

Therefore, theoretically, there cannot be any enemy other than the silent swordsman inside the Scar of Light. Just now, Macken just said it out of his mouth. At this moment, facing An Ruosi's question, he was completely unable to answer it.

How to say? Let’s just say that I’m actually a spy from a neighboring country. I came to you to spy on intelligence. Now I’m ready to return to my country to hand in a mission. I’m very familiar with this secret passage. Just follow me. By the way, there are all my colleagues here, so don’t be afraid. Just follow me.

So Claude could kill him on the spot.

Various thoughts flashed through Markan's mind, and then he immediately turned his attention to Roland.

Duide, a special Druid profession, has the same status in Caral as the profession of royal scholars in other countries. He is not at all surprised that Roland knows so much knowledge. Macken had vaguely heard that Duide's power was determined by the amount of knowledge he had mastered. Seeing that Roland was able to perform the group monster immobilization technique before, he might have recognized his identity and mission with his knowledge. .

I hope he can know the way to the trace of no light...

Otherwise, Macken really won't be able to come back.

Thinking like this, Markan cast his longing eyes on Roland. Not to his surprise, the Druid scholar with a girl-like face smiled and nodded.

Macken could not help but let out a sigh of relief. He raised his head and asked calmly, "Roland, do you know how to enter the Lightless Scar?"

"Of course."

Roland agreed while looking around, then walked in a certain direction without hesitation.

"Actually, what An Ruosi said just now is not true," Roland said casually, "Pterosaurs are not aggressive when they are not hungry - Del Ramos' breath polluted its bloodline and destroyed him at the same time. The intellect. Now that young dragon has only the wisdom of a sub-dragon, full of animal nature, and all actions are predictable."

Roland didn't see it, and a strange light flashed in Kluveen's eyes just now.

"Our field of vision is no more than three feet in the Scar of Light. In order to prevent someone from being lost, we must maintain a good formation from now on."

As if he hadn't noticed anything, Roland continued.

"The formation should be as dense as possible without compromising flexibility, moving in a dense array of shuttles, with at least two people in each person's field of vision. As soon as the loss of vision is found, it immediately makes a sound to attract our attention. Also, focus Focus and try to keep yourself not too forward or too backward as much as possible."

"I am familiar with the terrain, and I have a strong perception. I stand in the front row. Behind me are Macken and Kluveen, then Anjos and Miss Claudia," Roland said, turning around and saying seriously , "Lord Claude is the strongest, so I will trouble you to guard the rear."

"Give me this old bone."

The old priest said with a smile.

"But," Claudia suddenly asked, "what about the carriage in the dark forest? And what about the guards stationed near the carriage?"

Before Roland could answer, Macken let out a sneer.

"Miss, don't think about the carriage. In front of those greedy monkeys, there will be no horses left."

The one who answered her was Kluveen, who had not spoken for a long time.

"What's more, there is a shadow pterosaur." Macan added.

"Yes, there are also Pterodactyls. So Miss, I personally suggest that we don't go back, just take the trail from the Dark Mark and enter Caral. It is rare to have a Druid to lead the way." Kluveen patted Stomach, said with a smile.

"Miss Claudia, if you have to go back, I suggest you go back after the Shadow Pterodactyl has returned from foraging. Before that, for your safety, I don't think Captain Macken will let you go back. "

Roland looked at Claudia quietly, with unclear meaning.

"But those guards..."

She still wanted to argue something, but Father Claude put his hand on her shoulder lightly and shook his head slightly at her.

"…ok, I get it."

Claudia bit her lip and said in a low voice, "However, I hope it's better to go back and have a look if possible in the future."

"As you wish. However, I still prefer to pass through the dark marks quickly. After all, isn't your brother imprisoned?"

Kluveen shrugged indifferently.

After only a short while, Roland led the group to an inconspicuous black line.

He turned his head and said with a serious expression: "In the Scar of the Light, the laws are different from the matte trail. Any means of lighting in the Scar of the Light will be ineffective, even if it is the white tower wizard's gem lamp. Nothing that doesn’t touch you will do.”

"Also, don't touch any trees in the Dark Scar. Because one-third of the books here are phantoms, and there's nothing hidden in them, just in case there's a shadow hibernating inside. That's bad."

After making sure everyone heard it clearly, UU read www. uukanshu.com Roland stepped into the dividing line of no trace of light. Immediately, the shimmering light before dawn completely disappeared, and even with the extraordinary vision of professionals, everyone could only see the hazy figures around them.

At this moment, the figure in the front suddenly settled down, then turned around and said softly, "We seem to have forgotten to prepare the cloth before... Lord Claude, please use your magic to silence our footsteps."

So Claude nodded defensively.
