Volume 3 Takeoff Chapter 356: Mist and Shadow Dancer
However, once he entered and saw the surrounding environment, Levi felt that this hope was probably slim.
For the sky was an endless black dome, and there was no light at all to break the darkness.
Everywhere he looked was fog and illusions; his maximum visual distance was only thirty or forty meters.
There are even many places that look like mapping errors, resulting in many obvious faults on the earth and the sky, which is obviously the power of the phantom.
More importantly, colors here seem to have lost their meaning, and the whole world seems to have been bleached first and then replaced by shadowy gray.
Whether it was the originally heroic Elegy, the beautifully dressed Sally, or anyone else, they all paled in comparison under such circumstances.
There is only gray and black here, no other colors.
Those angels who usually had white and gold on their bodies and looked sacred, at this moment, collectively turned into the gray and black color they hated the most, looking like fallen angels.
In this situation, let alone fighting with the devil or looking for treasures, it would take a huge amount of energy for them to ensure that they are not attacked by the enemy.
It can be said that this was worthy of being something thrown away by the goddess who once controlled fog and phantoms. The special environment here alone was enough to give them a warning.
Even if she was assassinated by Cyric and Mask, she was still a god.
Cindy, Donna and others were also surprised. They had been to the dungeon before, more than one and more than once, but this was the first time they encountered such a special situation.
As for the ordinary subordinates, there was also some commotion, but it was only a slight one. Most of those who were qualified to follow Levi in this time were veterans who had been through many battles and had been tempered long ago.
Only Lucia seemed to have thought of something, but she was not completely sure, so she did not disturb Levi immediately because he was also busy.
Along with a series of summoning magic, the Rat Master and the Inspector Yakong were the first to emerge from the magic circle, and then they immediately went to conduct reconnaissance around them.
Levi continued to summon and planned to assign another team to Luna and Xiaotian.
Although the copy is limited to 500 people, his summoning magic can easily break this limit.
Since he possessed many specialties and supernatural abilities, he soon had a large group of summoned creatures in front of him.
Among them are faster summoned creatures such as wind elementals and cheetahs, but more are celestial creatures from the three major celestial races: Yakong, Gedin and Aici.
Although they were somewhat displeased with each other due to their different camps, they still looked at Levi obediently, ready to accept his orders.
In fact, Levi had discovered this a long time ago. It seemed that the identity of the Celestial Mystic Master represented a completely different meaning to them than that of an ordinary magician.
They would respect him more from the bottom of their hearts and be willing to die for almost all of his orders.
Levi nodded with satisfaction. Now, just summoning creatures was enough to make him powerful, and this was when he didn't use the battle flags and chessboard.
Then he was somewhat delighted to discover that the wind-making magic of the Barani angels could be effective on the surrounding fog.
Although the surrounding fog would gather again within a few tens of seconds, as long as the magic potion and wind-making spell continued, their vision could still be maintained to a certain extent.
At the same time, fire magic can also have a similar effect. However, considering that although it does not have an overly obvious color, the sound is unavoidable, Levi is not in a hurry to use it for the time being, and even asks his subordinates to pay extra attention to it.
Devils and demons are the same, most of them are born with the power of fire. If the demons in the copy intend to disperse the fog in this way, then it is possible that our side can sneak over and launch a sneak attack or something.
If the enemy mistakes his Holy Fireball for an ordinary Fireball and tries to resist it head-on, then he will suffer a great loss.
In comparison, Lily's light magic actually has the best effect.
Although it was also severely suppressed, it still achieved outstanding results.
Levi was inspired by this, and he began to work with Xiao Qi to continuously summon a large number of Holy Light Sub-Sky. With the help of their eternal flames, they could survive better in the fog.
The situation has indeed improved a lot now. At least it won't be as easy to be ambushed by the enemy as before.
But when he was actually planning to split up the team, he felt something was not right.
As soon as he saw the total number of people, he immediately knew what went wrong, because on the system panel, the total number of people was reduced by 3 and now there were only 497!
But he clearly remembered that he had brought 500 with him and he had not been attacked. So where were those three people?
However, he remained calm on the surface and secretly counted the number of people at the scene.
But soon he was very surprised to find that the number of people present was still 500.
He immediately understood that there must be someone disguised as his subordinate!
Could it be someone from the Church of Cyric? Or are they Mask's men again?
So he secretly asked Inspector Yakong to send a message to Cindy, Donna and others to be careful and alert, and asked Elegy and Alduin to slowly lead their respective guards to encircle them from both sides.
At the same time, he also tried hard to recall the number of people in each unit and compared it with the number on the system panel now.
He soon found the anomaly. There were three more Sky Eagle shooters present than what was shown on the system panel.
Seeing that Cindy and the others were already in position, he decisively ordered: "Sky Eagle Archers, step out, and the others spread out to the surroundings, be alert to possible enemies in the fog!"
Without any hesitation, all the Sky Eagle Archers followed the order and seemed to be very obedient to Levi.
But this time Levi laughed instead. No matter what means the other party used to deceive the system and disguise themselves as his subordinates, there was one thing they probably couldn't do, and that was the camp!
"Detect the camp!"
As he shouted, dozens of magical lights flashed together.
As a low-level spell, its popularity is so high that any level 1 magic unit can learn it, and all the priests on the scene know it.
So, in full view of everyone, in a sea of white light that tends to be kind, only at the very edge, three red lights representing the evil camp flashed out, appearing so dazzling.
However, the moment he opened his mouth, the three guys obviously realized something was wrong, so almost at the same time, they knew that the operation had failed.
Accompanied by misty phantoms, they ran in several directions. One look at their starting speed showed that in terms of speed alone, they were not inferior to ordinary mid-level cavalry.
As soon as he saw these phantoms, Levi roughly knew that, if nothing unexpected happened, they were all guys from the Mask Church, and their professions were most likely special shadow dancers.
There was already a shadow in Mask's priesthood, and he had previously successfully seized Leila's priesthood - the Mist (part), and his followers also benefited from it.
The Shadow Dancer's abilities include shadow jumping, hiding in sight, summoning shadows, and many other abilities. In a sense, the special environment of this copy is like a home court specially prepared for the opponent.
Once they get into the fog, it will be difficult to deal with them.
But he was not annoyed at all. Instead, he snorted lightly, activated the war flag directly, and summoned the Tiger Envoy and the Bear-headed Envoy to intercept.
Even if it costs him some gold coins, he had to find out where the other party came from.
The three shadow dancers sneered a little. No matter whether it was the bear-headed divine envoy or the tiger divine envoy, they were the same in their eyes.
It would be fine if they fought head-on, as they thought they were no match for the opponent.
But if we were just competing in agility and speed, these guys would be too clumsy, and it would be wishful thinking to try to stop them!
So it only took them a few seconds to quickly dodge numerous attacks, successfully overcome the interception of the celestial creatures, and were about to escape from danger.
But little did he know that the celestial creatures were just used by Levi to delay time. What he really trusted was the power of himself, Cindy, and Xiao Qi!
"Human immobilization technique!"
"Spider web technique!"
"Iron Binding!"
"Mind Explosion!"
After a few moves, all three shadow dancers were either bound by magic or simply knocked unconscious by Cindy.
At this time, the Tiger Masters also ran over as soon as possible. On average, every four Tiger Masters held down the limbs of a Shadow Dancer, determined not to give them the chance to escape again.
In fact, there is no need for so many Tiger Masters, because Shadow Dancers have never been known for their strength.
Levi then leisurely landed beside them and looked at the only two sober shadow dancers.
"Tell me, how did you get into my team?"
As for the current whereabouts of the three subordinates, Levi did not ask because it was no longer meaningful.
One of the shadow dancers immediately said with some disdain: "How dare you try to spy on the secrets of our Lord? Don't you know that this valley full of shadows and mist is our Lord's territory?"
"I advise you to let us go immediately. Maybe we can still have a chance of survival later!"
Levi raised his eyebrows. Mask's territory? Does it mean the shadow world?
Because the gods differ in many aspects such as race, camp and ability, the kingdoms they establish will naturally tend to certain different dimensions.
Complying with these tendencies will also help them to exert their own strength and cooperate in defense with the gods who are also nearby.
For example, the elven gods, most of them tend to be kind and natural. Currently, the kingdom of gods is mainly concentrated in the kingdom of Avandor in Olympus in the plane of Arval.
Other gods near them, mainly the gods of the Greek pantheon of human nature, also lived in Olympus.
Yes, Levi was also very surprised when he learned this information.
How could Corellon, a god with great power, share Olympus with the rest of the pantheon, where his power is weak, like the rest of the pantheon. Only one king, Zeus, is of weaker power?
How can I allow others to sleep soundly under my bed?
This is a truth that even mortals know. How could the Elf King, who is definitely ranked in the top ten among the gods, or even in the top five, not know this?
Considering that they had previously absorbed the giant crocodile Sobek and allowed the shepherd god Paine to follow Illidan around all day, Levi felt that he might be able to guess something.
Although the Greek gods were of a very low rank and had very few believers, their priesthoods were all good things.
The thunder and lightning of Zeus, the light and medicine of Apollo, the war and wisdom of Athena, the war, destruction and martial arts of Ares, the underworld and death of Hades...
These divine duties are almost all where the elven gods are weak or lacking, while the divine duties of other Greek gods are also very rich.
Although the Greek gods are generally weak, their duties are really comprehensive. As long as they are given enough time, they have the potential to become a behemoth.
Unfortunately, they showed up at the wrong time. The faith of this world had already been divided up by the gods, and they had almost no other believers except the Amazons and Spartans.
Corellon's purpose in tolerating the Greek pantheon is obvious.
Some more evil gods would even establish their kingdoms directly in the demons' base camp - the Abyss, such as the Spider Queen Rose.
Or in the demons' Baator hell, for example, the dragon goddess Tiamat , her kingdom is built in the first layer of hell.
Guys like Mask, , who is half black and half white and has no friends or relatives, will basically choose some neutral and relatively hidden planes.
For example, the Shadow Plane, or the Shadow Plane.
Lucia next to her was a little surprised when she heard this. She actually had such doubts at the beginning, but now she doesn't completely agree with it.
Because the environment here is slightly different from what Dracula had told her before.
At most, this is a demiplane with the characteristics of the Shadow Realm, a mezzanine, but not a real Shadow Realm.
In fact, Levi also thinks so.
If this is really the Shadow Realm, how could it be their turn to take risks here? Mask had already snatched away the things that the Phantom Goddess left behind!
So he just smiled and said: "Wrong answer, it looks like you need to face your death first."
He directly threw an arrow of holy power, severely injuring the Shadow Dancer with weak vitality. Then, under his instructions, several Tiger Envoys who were holding the opponent down swung their sharp claws and tore him into pieces on the spot.
But despite this, the splattered blood was also filled with a dead gray-black color.
After doing all this, Levi turned around and looked at another stunned shadow dancer as if nothing had happened.
"So, what's your answer?"
Due to the special environment here, there are only gray and black colors, so Levi, who was originally quite handsome, now looks very gloomy.
Shadow Dancer swallowed subconsciously, and then hurriedly said: "I don't know, a few vampires came to us, they handed us some special consumables, and then we came in?"
Levi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Vampire? Female?"
"Yes, that's right. Not only are they beautiful, but their faces, bodies, and every move are extremely seductive."
"I only know that they are from the Touyiduo clan, but I don't know anything else. They are all directly connected to our chief priest!"
Li Wei immediately understood.
After he and Lucia's joint hunting, there were still two survivors of Dracula's 13 families, one of whom was Toxido.
They were created by Dracula based on the Lahmia family, one of the four major families, and they specialize in seducing and controlling men (or males).
Now it seems that in the face of strong pressure from their own side, they did not sit idly by and wait for death. Even if they did not dare to confront head-on, they were still thinking of causing more trouble for themselves through other means.
Coupled with the special circumstances here, it is a perfect match with the Mask Church.
One is revenge, the other is also revenge, plus the theft of any valuable loot that may exist at a critical moment.
Unfortunately, they underestimated their own attentiveness and sensitivity.
"So, where is your base located, and where are those vampires hiding?"
"I don't know. We usually communicate through a single line. Even before we lurked in, we didn't know each other existed!"
Levi curled his lips. Although many people believed that Mask's church was essentially just a thieves' guild organized in the name of religion, there was an ambitious and scheming god above them, so they were still quite organized.
But he also knew that he probably wouldn't be able to get anything out of him.
After offending himself, he would only die, but if he revealed the true secrets of the church, his soul would not rest in peace.
Similarly, the guy on the ground who was so weak that he was knocked unconscious by Cindy's mind blast, his strength and status would only be lower, and he couldn't say much even if he wanted to.
So he waved his hand, signaling the Tiger Envoys to take action.
Then, more than a dozen sharp tiger claws swung at the same time, killing the two shadow dancers instantly again.
After doing all this, Levi signaled that the reconnaissance troops could officially move. With the help of wind-making techniques and so on, they had to try their best to reconnaissance the surrounding environment, at least to determine where the enemy was first.
As for his home team, they began to move slowly in a random direction.
This copy doesn't seem to have a time limit. If you can encounter the devil's army and annihilate it in one fell swoop, then your search for treasure will definitely be much easier.
At this time, Lucia also came over: "Levi, I think this is neither the Shadow Realm nor an ordinary plane. It is more like a plane gap created by some special force."
Levi couldn't help but look at her differently, but then he thought, vampires are also a race accustomed to living in darkness and shadows, so it's not surprising that Lucia has such knowledge, she must have had a lot of contact with them before.
"And my strength has been enhanced. Although the magnitude is not high, it is there."
Vampires consider themselves to be the children of the night, and in the darkness and under the moonlight, they will be slightly strengthened.
But the key point is that although the sky and everything in the shadow world are gloomy, there is no distinction between day and night, which is enough to prove that this place is not the shadow world.
Levi immediately laughed. After hearing the news, he completely put his worries aside.
"Well, in that case, let's find the enemy as soon as possible and unearth the treasures here!"
