Volume 3: Artifacts Chapter 150 Assassination
Mendes' mood fell to the lowest point, and the huge psychological gap made his head hurt even more.
He had never thought that the Shadow Clan, one of the five ancient civilizations, had such a big flaw. No matter how strong they were, they were all equal in front of the Spirit Wave Blade specially developed for the Shadow Clan.
All the honor and pride that I once had are like bubbles, shattered and gone without a trace.
And the Psychic Wave Blade is also effective against the Dark Chief.
If the Warchief is assassinated...
Mendes didn't dare to think any further.
Now it is no longer a matter of a few Shadow Clan members being assassinated, but a question of how the Shadow Clan can survive.
"Your Majesty Taotie, I will go to the Deep Well Palace immediately to report this matter to the Dark Chieftain. Before the Dark Chieftain makes a decision, please do not publicize this matter to the outside world, and I hope you will not leave the Deep Well City."
Luke put on the pride of a dragon and asked Mendes: "Are the Shadow Tribe still planning to kill me and my dragons to silence us?"
Mendes knew that he was flustered and didn't pay attention to the wording. He explained: "This matter is too serious for the Shadow Clan. I think the Dark Chief will arrange a meeting with you again after knowing it.
The Shadow Clan and the Dragon Clan fought side by side during the ancient war and established a deep friendship. Now is the time when the Shadow Clan needs the help of the Dragons the most. Your Majesty, please lend a helping hand. "
Luke was very satisfied with Mendes' current attitude: "I came to visit Gruzerei to reiterate the friendship between the Dragon Civilization and the Shadow Civilization. It's just that the Dark Chief said some irrational words after meeting me, which hurt my sincerity.
I didn't leave Shenjing City because I wanted to give both of us a chance.
I hope the Dark Chieftain can seize this opportunity for the Shadow Civilization!"
Xiao Tiantian is now Mrs. Niu.
A spiritual wave knife instantly widened the gap between the Shadow Clan and the Dragon Clan.
A few days ago, you ignored me.
Now, you are out of my reach!
Luke seizes the opportunity to postulate his best interests in his second meeting with the Dark Lord.
Mendes was no longer able to think normally, and even ignored etiquette as he hurriedly left the Dragon's Nest.
After the Shadow Tribe left, Luke asked Malken, "You seem to be very familiar with Dr. Bruckner's research."
At this time, Melken also realized the greater value of the Spirit Wave Blade.
His voice was trembling with excitement: "When I was working at the Imperial Extraordinary Biology Research Institute, I was a research competitor with Dr. Bruckner, so I paid close attention to his research projects.
His Majesty……
The Psychowave Blade is effective against all iterations because they are all split from the remnant of the Shadow Parasite in the research institute. Could it be that Dr. Bruckner's research can really destroy the entire Shadow Clan?"
Luke replied: "You heard what I just said to Mendes. The homogeneity of the race is the fatal flaw of the Shadow Clan. These assassinations also prove the lethality of the Psychic Wave Blade to the Shadow Parasites.
From now on, the Shadow Civilization could no longer be ranked alongside the other four civilizations.
What a pity. What a pity. "
The value of Shadow Civilization in Luke's heart has greatly decreased.
"Is there no solution?"
Luke was curious about why Melkan would ask this question, so he smiled and asked, "Are you concerned about the fate of the Shadow Clan?"
Malken said with emotion: "I have spent most of my life studying the Shadow Parasite. In my mind, it is a perfect spiritual supernatural creature. I don't want this race to sink into depravity or even... perish because of a flaw."
"In theory, there is a solution."
Malcolm asked: "What method?"
"This is what the Imperial Extraordinary Biology Research Institute has been studying. The host and the iteration of the shadow parasite coexist. With such a whole, even if the spiritual wave knife separates the spiritual power of the shadow parasite from the host, the host will not be easily killed, causing the shadow parasite to lose its host and be slaughtered at will."
"But the Shadow Parasite's mental power is too strong, and there is no way it can coexist with the host. The Iterative Body weakened a lot of its mental energy to achieve coexistence, but the success rate is not high."
"That's not something I can answer." Luke said sadly, "Why don't you make this your new research topic? I think the Shadow Tribe will be very supportive of your research."
After hearing Luke's advice, Malcolm suddenly became energetic, as if he knew the purpose of his life.
"As long as the Shadow Clan allows me to do this research, I will definitely find a way to keep the Shadow Clan alive."
Luke smiled and said, "Do you think the Shadow Clan still has the power to choose?"
The Shadow Clan has no power to choose.
Luke didn't even have to wait long before the Minotaur Mendes came to the dragon's nest again.
"The Dark Chief invites His Majesty, the Dragon King Taotie, to the Deep Well Palace to discuss the renewal of friendship between the two civilizations."
When Luke came to the Deep Well Hall again, he saw the true appearance of the Deep Well Hall.
It was the head of a giant creature, with an abnormally large skull and facial features squeezed together. Although this giant creature had been dead for who knows how many years, its majestic spiritual power still existed, and a faint blue light emanated from its eye sockets.
The skull was embedded in a huge cave. Luke followed Mendes across the stone bridge and entered the cranial cavity through the left ear hole of the skull.
The brain tissue in the skull no longer exists, and mental power simulates the nerves that make up the brain.
In the middle of the psychic brain there is a pine cone-shaped luminous body.
Luke walked in front of the pine cone-shaped light and couldn't help but smile and said, "Is this the first time you reveal your true form to a visitor? Chief of Darkness..."
The pine cone light flickered, and the ancient voice of the Dark Chief came from all directions.
"Yes, you are the first visitor to see my true self. My disguise and my arrogance were peeled off, revealing my extremely vulnerable nature. Your Majesty Taotie, I apologize to you... although this apology is a little late."
Luke said: "It is indeed a little late to apologize when facing a crisis. But I am not a narrow-minded person. It is better to realize the mistake than to persist in making the mistake."
Luke referred to himself as "human" in his speech, which made the Dark Chieftain laugh bitterly: "I didn't expect that humans would become the gravediggers of the Shadow Tribe, and they actually invented such a deadly weapon against the Shadow Tribe.
And this weapon is in Shenjing City.
Your Majesty Taotie... the other party is not something the Shadow Clan can deal with. Can you help us find that person and destroy the Spirit Wave Blade?"
"Sure!" Luke agreed readily, "What can I get from you?"
"The Shadow Civilization will continue to be an ally of the Dragon Nation, but the Dragon Nation must help the Shadow Clan eliminate all technologies related to the Spirit Wave Blade and those who master this technology."
Luke asked meaningfully: "If it is not only the Golden Shield Empire that has mastered this technology, but the Shining Gold Civilization has also mastered it...what should the Shadow Civilization do?"
"That is to destroy the Shining Gold Civilization!"
The pine cone glowed wildly, and the Dark Chieftain felt a threat to his survival that was stronger than the ancient war. If the Shadow Clan wanted to continue, they had to eliminate everything related to spiritual fluctuations, completely eliminate them.
Faced with the somewhat crazy Dark Chief, Luke decided to comfort him first and continue the conversation after his emotions stabilized.
"Captain, you are a little confused and your decisions are made without much thought. I think the situation may not be as serious as you think...
"Great Chief, Great Chief!"
Luke noticed that the pineal gland was flashing strangely. He kept calling out to the Dark Chief but received no response.
Suddenly, the pineal gland flashed violently and then suddenly went out!
The nerves inside the mental brain trembled vaguely, and the entire Deep Well City began to shake violently.
Luke steadied himself and realized that the Dark Chief was under attack.
At this time, the pineal gland flashed and emitted a faint light. The voice of the Dark Chief came out intermittently and weakly: "Yes, yes, it's the spirit, the wave knife... I saw him... He is...
It's really the Golden Man!"
The pineal gland goes out again.
The Tauren Mendes rushed into the Deep Well Hall: "Great Chief, we were attacked by the Shining Gold People. They rushed into the Deep Well City. A part of the Shadow Clan betrayed you and are..."
When Mendes saw the extinguished pineal gland, he stood there in a daze.
"Great Chief...Great Chief..."
Mendes kept shouting, but received no response from the Dark Chief.
Luke asked the stunned Mendes loudly: "What happened outside? How did the Golden Man get in?"
Mendes regained consciousness and quickly answered, "I don't know how the Shining Gold invaded Deep Well City. They must have been helped by the traitorous Shadow Clan.
Chieftain, Chieftain, what happened to him?"
The Golden Man unexpectedly attacked Deep Well City. This sudden incident caught Luke off guard.
However, the ancient war started with the Golden Man's raid on Sky City, so it is not surprising that the Golden Man once again raided Deep Well City.
Now we must understand the scale of the Shining Gold's attack on Deep Well City, and whether the Shadow Clan has the ability to resist such an attack.
Luke said to Mendes: "The Dark Chief was attacked by the Spirit Wave Blade and is now separated from the host's spiritual power. We must find the Spirit Wave Blade that attacked the Chief so that we can save him.
Go and gather as many shadow assassins as you can."
When the Dark Chieftain was attacked, the Taotie King of the Dragon Kingdom became the backbone of Mendes.
He quickly calmed down and said, "Yes, Your Majesty! I will go and summon the shadow assassins now. Do you know where the spiritual wave blade that attacked the chieftain is?"
"The Great Chief has just found it and left a place for us."
Luke pointed to a cranial nerve where there was a highlighted spot.
When entering the Deep Well Hall, Luke discovered that the direction of the nerves on this spiritual brain was very similar to his map of Deep Well City. The changes in gravity in various places in Deep Well City corresponded to the direction of the brain nerves.
Although the true relationship between Deep Well Hall and Deep Well City has not yet been clarified, the bright spot on the brain nerves must be the place where the attack on the Dark Chief was launched.
Mendes took one look and knew where it was.
"Your Majesty, I will gather the Shadow Assassins to attack here now. Please return to the Dragon's Nest and reunite with your dragons... If there is a chance, break out.
The Shining Gold Man may not make things difficult for you."
Although he knew the location of the Psychic Wave Blade that attacked the Great Chief, Mendes was pessimistic about the battle situation.
The Shining Gold Man, the Shadow Clan Traitor, and the Psychic Wave Blade.
With these three fatal factors added together, I'm afraid the Shadow Clan will not be able to escape this time.
Luke said, "I will make a decision based on the battle situation. If...if the battle situation is not favorable to the Shadow Clan, I hope you will break out of Deep Well City at all costs. In the vast Gruzerei, the Shining Gold People will not be able to wipe out the Shadow Clan."
"That's not what I need to consider now. The Shadow Clan will rescue the Dark Chieftain at all costs. Your Majesty Taotie, from now on, the Shadow Clan will have no way to protect you."
"Go do what you should do!"
Mendes turned and left.
Luke took a look at the dim pineal gland and the gradually blurred brain nerves, sighed, and left the Deep Well Hall.
The Shenjing City outside was in complete chaos.
The city was constantly shaking, large sections of buildings collapsed, and countless residents of the dungeon fled in panic. From time to time, one could see the Shining Gold Men wearing golden armor fighting fiercely with the Shadow Clan.
During the fight, the Shadow Clan will suddenly fall to the ground and be killed by the Shining Gold People.
This was definitely a long-planned attack. As long as the Psychic Wave Blade was successfully developed, the Shining Gold Man would be able to eliminate the Shadow Clan in one fell swoop.
Luke flew into the air, rushing towards the dragon's nest.
His whereabouts were discovered by the Sparkling Gold Man, but the Sparkling Gold Man did not attack him. Instead, he quickly avoided him after encountering him.
Luke did not feel relieved by the Golden People's fear of the Dragon Kingdom. Instead, he felt filled with frustration.
This is what failure feels like.
And it was a major failure.
Just now he was proud that he could easily control the Shadow Clan and gain more dominance after the two civilizations formed an alliance, but he didn't expect that the Shining Gold People would wipe out the Shadow Clan's power from the future struggle between civilizations.
Clean, neat and vicious.
Luke experienced for the first time the cruelty of the struggle between civilizations. If he was not careful, a powerful race would fall and perish.
At the same time, he also realized that the current Shuojin civilization is no longer the Shuojin civilization that he is familiar with.
The opponent in the game has changed. If you still follow the previous rules of the game, such failures will continue to occur.
Luke flew alone over the noisy battlefield.
The Shining Gold Man, who had mastered the technique of the Spirit Wave Blade, slaughtered the Shadow Clan wantonly. The abnormality in the Deep Well Palace caused the entire city to shake violently. The gravity in an area changed, and the city was being torn apart by the pull of gravity.
Suddenly, dragon roars echoed in the closed urban area.
Giant dragons flew over from the front, deploying multiple magic circles.
The dragons did not attack the Shining Gold people they encountered, and the Shining Gold people only targeted the Shadow Clan and ignored the dragons flying past them.
Soon the dragons joined Luke.
White Dragon Eiffel said to Luke nervously: "Your Majesty, the Shining Gold people are attacking the Shadow Civilization. We will protect you to break through."
Luke, who was surrounded by giant dragons, said, "No! Let's go back to the dragon's nest!"
