Chapter 446: What Is The Purpose Of The Dwarf Statue?
This is the work of elves.
The elves believed that these dwarves were blaspheming their goddess, so they smashed the heads of the dwarves with a sledgehammer as an example to others.
After Li Ang observed the dwarf statue, he searched for other dwarf statues along the way.
On the altar, he saw some ancient monster statues with strange shapes and fierce appearance. Some have the head of a bull, some have the body of a snake, and some have the head of an eagle.
Their eyeballs were wide open, full of bloodthirsty rage, as if they had come to life, looking down on Li Ang.
Li Ang's hair stood on end like he'd stepped into the headquarters of some ancient cult.
"Don't look around." The skeleton Mage warned: "These statues contain ancient curses. Once they touch the soul, they will make you die of pain."
"Oh." Li Ang calmed down, shifted his gaze, and looked around the sacrificial altar.
This altar occupies half a block, and there are many buildings, making it appear very large.
Dozens of huge iron coffins were piled up around the altar. Each iron coffin was cast from refined steel. The whole body was black with patterns and rust mottled on the surface.
On the top of the altar is a huge bronze tripod, about five meters high.
Flames were burning in the bronze cauldron, exuding a strong smell of sulfur.
The space inside the bronze tripod is large enough to accommodate more than two hundred dwarves and thousands of ancient Egyptians.
"Your family is inside, you can go see them now." Skeleton Mage waved his hand, "Remember, this is your last chance, don't hesitate any longer."
"I understand." Li Ang focused his eyes, took a deep breath, and stepped into the iron coffin. ．
bang!
Stepping into the bronze tripod, the heavy coffin lid fell, sealing the narrow space.
He looks around.
The space in the iron coffin was relatively narrow, and rows of wooden frames were arranged neatly, with corpses hanging from them.
These corpses were all rotten and decomposed, with dry and shriveled skin, swollen bodies, and even maggots crawling all over the bones.
"These are... elves?" Li Ang raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, "The ancient wizards killed the elves and created these dwarf Warriors."
"You guessed it right." Skeleton Mage's voice sounded cheerful. "There are not only elves, but also dwarves, kobolds, ogres and other races. These corpses are used as sacrifices."
He pointed to the surrounding wooden frames and corpses, and continued: "The owners of these corpses were powerful during their lifetime. They were the most powerful army in the ancient elf kingdom, and they were also my greatest enemy. I worked hard and finally buried them all in the here."
"Hmm..." Li Ang frowned slightly, looked at the dwarf stone statue on one side, and asked, "Are these dwarves subordinates of ancient wizards?"
"That's right, they are my subordinates, they are loyal and brave, and they are willing to sacrifice their lives to follow me."
The skeleton Mage was silent for a while, and said, "Unfortunately, I am not kind enough to protect their descendants. Their descendants have become slaves and pariahs, and have been bullied for generations.
I once promised to give them glory and wealth, but I never kept my promise, and instead let them suffer misfortune.
This is because I am sorry for them, so I need your help to protect their widow and heir for me. "
Li Ang froze for a moment, and asked in doubt, "How do you want me to help them?"
Skeleton Mage said: "I will perform the technique of imprisonment here, temporarily seal their souls, and place them in this altar.
This is my only solution.
In addition, you must find a way to break the ban. Otherwise, they will be trapped here forever. "
Li Ang raised his left arm and looked at the green dragon scales on his wrist.
The Green Dragon is the mount of a legendary Mage, an extremely rare species of drake. Li Ang once took a rib from a green dragon and melted it to refine a pair of green dragon bone armor, which is powerful for defense and can be called a Divine Armament weapon.
The name of this pair of bone armor is Dragon Tooth Armor.
According to the Green Dragon, the Dragon Tooth Armor should have been hatched from a dragon egg, and then the cubs would be hatched, and then grow up slowly.
I don't know which great existence created the dragon tooth armor. production process. The original designer of the Dragon Tooth Armor, the Green Dragon, was reborn as a result.
However, the alchemy material of the dragon tooth armor is very special, even if the green dragon bred its own offspring, this equipment cannot be used. It will gradually decay and decay until it dies completely.
In desperation, the green dragon disassembled its own bones and melted them into the green dragon's spine, which was used as the material for the dragon tooth armor.
Li Ang found these bone fragments in the Dark Mountains, added the mithril provided by the alchemy school, and made the dragon tooth armor.
Since the green dragon is a sub-dragon species, its body is petite and exquisite, and its bones are more slender and soft. Therefore, the dragon tooth armor is composed of keel, green dragon spine and a small amount of dragon blood.
Far more valuable than the Green Dragon Bones, this artifact is Li Ang's favorite piece of equipment.
Li Ang looked at the ring on his hand, and muttered in a low voice: "...I can't use dragon tooth armor to resist the curse, in case something goes wrong..."
After saying this, he suddenly found that there was nothing around him.
What about the shadow of the skeleton Mage?
Li Ang turned his head sharply and saw the skeleton Mage standing next to the corpse of a dwarf Warrior, holding the dwarf's neck with his hands, and lifting it above the bronze tripod.
The body of the dwarf's corpse rapidly expanded and became larger, and the bones creaked and creaked.
Skeleton Mage sneered again and again, "Hmph, I don't know how to compliment you! If that's the case, then I'll give you a ride."
Click! Click! Click! Click!
The bones were broken, the fragments were splashed, and the dwarf's corpse was smashed into pieces, which sprinkled every inch of the bronze tripod.
Skeleton Mage clapped his hands and said slowly: "Okay, these guys have been completely destroyed, and you should also fulfill your duty and take their descendants away."
Li Ang ignored him, stared at the skeleton Mage's right leg, and said thoughtfully, "Your right leg... seems to be gone."
"Yeah, it was cut off by you." Skeleton Mage sighed with a sad tone, "I made this skeleton body with my own hands. Although I destroyed it with my own hands, I still cannot escape the blame."
"Huh?" Li Ang frowned and said, "Didn't I chop off your head?"
The skeleton Mage shook his head: "No, my head was discarded before I lost consciousness, I didn't chop it off."
"Huh?" Li Ang said in amazement: "You don't remember? Didn't you just say that you brought me here and planned to let me kill you?"
Skeleton Mage was silent for a while, then nodded lightly and said, "I said, this is my decision. You are a smart boy, you must be able to understand me.
do you know? In this mausoleum, I cannot use force.
The so-called "use of force" means killing people. "
He pointed to the row after row of dwarf stone sculptures all around, "If you don't kill me, you and your companions will be imprisoned here.
