Chapter 229 Sorry, I have to let her save you (4/3)
Waynes, who has lived for more than a thousand years, has witnessed the ups and downs of countless geniuses, and has seen the rise and fall of countless heroes. He has truly seen the prosperity of the world.
Such an old monster, when facing the terrifying dark artifact, Link naturally wanted to seek his guidance.
Following the guidance of the message rune, Link ran all the way to the coast, then went north along the coast, crossing the soon-to-be-finished harbor, and ran north for more than three miles. Link saw Waynes at a small cave entrance on the edge of the sea cliff.
This guy was sitting on a huge rock at the entrance of the cave, posing like a contemplative person. From a distance, he looked like the body of an ordinary unlucky guy.
Doras didn't recognize him, ran to the cave, and laughed and said to Link: "Look at this skeleton is so interesting. She's still so stylish when she's dead. Look at me suffocating his head with one claw."
After saying that, the demon tiger, who had a good thing, poked out its claws and was about to knock the skeleton's head away like a ball.
Unexpectedly, as soon as his claws reached the point, a flash of light suddenly appeared in the air, and a "pop" sounded right on its claws.
Doras suffered pain, retracted his claws like lightning, and then stared at the white skeleton rack, with a look of surprise and doubt: "It's weird, this skeleton is weird!"
Waynes woke up and two balls of soul fire ignited in his eyes. He looked at the magic tiger with a funny look and said to Link with a smile: "Is this your pet? It looks quite interesting."
"..." Doras was dissatisfied and wanted to argue, but was stopped by Link.
Link jumped off the tiger's back and said straightforwardly: "Old guy, I have something to ask you."
"You said you asked for advice, that must be a troublesome thing. Tell me." Waynes' teeth were posed as if he was listening patiently.
Link then told all the news he had obtained in the palace, from the unusually demonized dark elves to the dark artifacts, to his decision to go north, and at the end, he said, "To be honest, I have no confidence in my heart."
After hearing this, there was no expression on Waynes's skeleton's face. He nodded slowly: "It's indeed a very tricky thing...you ask me to think about it."
When he was talking, Waynes rarely lost the crazy and casual aura he used to be, and he fell into deep thoughts and memories.
This state lasted for more than half an hour, and then the old lich spoke: "The Dark Elf believes in the Spider Queen Rose. This dark god is good at using the snake-headed whip, and is called the "Dark Snake, the Dark Lady's Soul Lasso". If the Dark Elf really gets the artifact, then it can only be it."
As soon as this sentence was said, Link immediately knew that he was right!
He asked, "Do you know the specific attributes of this artifact?"
Although Link knew the attributes of this dark artifact in the game, it was a game, which was very different from reality. For example, the Storm Lord Sword in his hand, the game and reality were completely different. In this case, if Link dared to rely on any game data, it would be no different from seeking death.
Waynes shook his head gently: "That is a weapon of the gods. How can mortals know the specific attributes? However, this dark snake has not appeared for the first time in history, but it has left behind some related legends."
"You said." Link asked humbly.
"Let me think about it carefully." The old lich fell into memories again, and it was half an hour later. Then he spoke in a daze: "It is rumored that the Dark Snake has a very venomous and can secrete venom. For those who are recognized by it, this venom can greatly enhance the opponent's strength and turn him into a perfect warrior, but for the enemy, venom is the most terrifying thing in the world. As long as you hit it, there is no possibility of survival, and even your soul will be corroded."
"So strong?" Doras, who was standing beside him, shrank and hid behind Link.
Waynes continued: "But it is just a weapon after all. After entering the mortal world, there must be a host. This host is controlled by it, but at the same time it will also be given terrifying power by this artifact. Legend has it that only the dark elf royal family with silver moon blood can bear this power in this world, and once it is endured, this person will become an unparalleled warrior."
"How strong is it? A legendary strongman?" Link was also shocked.
"I don't know." Waynes shook his head.
Link was a little disappointed, but at this moment, another voice rang in Link's mind: "It's not a legendary powerhouse, it's just a level 9 peak. How can a puppet surpass the legendary realm?"
The one who spoke was the sword spirit of the Storm Lord's sword.
"Are you sure?" Link asked.
The sword spirit immediately exploded: "What do you mean I'm sure? This is the fact! I've experienced ten times more things than the old skeleton in front of you! I've dealt with that dog thing in the Dark Snake!"
Link was curious: "Who won?"
Jian Ling was stunned for a moment, then replied: "I'm too lazy to tell you."
But Link was eager to know the true power of the Dark Snake, and then asked, "Wait, you said you had dealt with him, then tell me what kind of power the other party has? How to resist it?"
Without a response, the sword spirit suddenly appeared and disappeared suddenly, and its behavior was simply unpredictable.
He asked a few more questions in his mind, but never received any response, so Link had to give up.
During this period, Waynes hadn't spoken. Link probably couldn't ask anything here, so he said, "Old guy, then I'll go back to the territory. Would you be bored if you're alone?"
Waynes shook his head slowly, his voice calm and calm: "I am here, facing the sea every day, and seeing the sun rise and the sunset, fish leaping and birds flying, it's very interesting, don't worry about me."
"Oh, then goodbye." Link climbed onto Doras's back and prepared to return to the territory to make some final arrangements.
Here, when Link walked away, Waynes immediately jumped off the stone and ran back to the cave.
In the cave, Nana's body was lying through her chest. Originally, he had agreed to Link that when the other party mastered the magic theory of the puppet, he would see if the situation would repair the puppet.
So during this period, Waynes has not moved the puppet.
But now, things have changed.
When he walked into the cave, Waynes couldn't help but start cursing: "The little guy really doesn't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick. He is actually going to fight against the dark artifact. There is a weird thing about immortality!"
But after cursing, Waynes sighed again: "The appearance of the dark snake must be a catastrophe that swept the world. Who can escape this misfortune? Can I avoid it? If I don't want to become a dark puppet, it's probably just a matter of dying sooner or later...ah~"
Walking to Nana, Waynes squatted down and looked at the wound on the puppet. After a long time, he took out his wand, "Night Gaze, Dark Arbiter's Staff", and the light of transforming magic began to appear at the tip of the wand.
He already knew the reason why the puppet lost control, and he could easily repair it. He didn't move the puppet before because of his agreement with Link, and he was afraid that the puppet would lose control again.
But now, he has to repair her.
"Young man, don't blame me for not being trustworthy. If I don't repair her, you will definitely die when you go to the north alone. I'm asking her to save you."
Waynes spent 20 years on this puppet and learned about every structure of her. At this time, he repaired it quickly.
Under the influence of the transformation magic, the gap on the puppet's body quickly healed. Slowly, the puppet's frozen eyes became agile and began to turn drippingly.
A crisp sound came from the puppet's body: "Nana is starting up... The memory bank is damaged... Nana has no target... Nana has no target..."
"It's still early to fix it. Let me fall asleep first, don't think about causing trouble."
While speaking, Waynes slapped the puppet's head with his backhand, and a layer of slight white light condensed on his palm. With a "bang", the puppet closed his eyes again and the sound stopped.
On the other hand, Link certainly didn't know Waynes's plan, he had returned to the territory now.
Not far away, the foundation of the Magic Tower has been dug. Along the way, you can see the tall puppets working tirelessly to plow the land.
Scorched Earth Ridge is also extremely lively. You can see that the number of pedestrians on the road leading to Gwenter Forest is at least ten times the number of pedestrians. Some of them are carrying baskets with children and household items. A woman who also carries baskets, is following her. This looks like the rhythm of family relocation. Some simple tents are set up around Scorched Earth Ridge.
Before, Link hurriedly passed by Scorched Earth Ridge. He didn't pay much attention to it when he had something to do. Now he felt that this was very strange.
Doras was surprised: "Hey, there are so many people."
