Chapter 773 The "Everyday Life" of the Dark Mountains
A dark mist enveloped the castle, which seemed to be from the time of an ancient magical empire, and bursts of heart-pounding roars of beasts came from inside, occasionally accompanied by a mournful wail.
In any place, similar situations will definitely create all kinds of horror stories, scaring children to cry at night, attracting the cleanup of church clergy or the magic council's battle mage department, and also attracting groups of adventurers to explore one after another, but in the dark mountains, this situation abounds, and there may be more frightening castles somewhere.
In a richly decorated room, covered with thick carpets from the southern desert of the Gusta Empire, there are artworks with a sense of historical vicissitudes, and floor-to-ceiling windows that have only emerged in recent hundreds of years outside the mountains.
In front of them stood a man in his thirties wearing a classical robe, his body and face were extremely thin, but his head was a circle larger than ordinary people.
He had a smile on the corner of his mouth, which looked eerie and unusually against the background of the dark fog outside, his eyes were faintly scorching, and he greedily looked at the man and woman back and forth, as if he couldn't restrain his inner desires.
"Both the mind and the body are so delicious, this harvest really surprised me......" The man squatted down, stretched out his thin right hand, and stroked it over the woman's beautiful face and the man's hard face, as if admiring two works of art that made him excited.
This kind of touch made the two sleepy people react immediately, their eyes rolled under their eyelids, as if they would wake up soon, but the big-headed man was not guarded at all, and continued to grope his skin inch by inch of his skin.
Half-asleep, Sharon felt something cold and slippery wandering around her face and body, like a long snake wriggling, which made her, who was very disgusted with this creature, wake up and open her eyes suddenly.
In his sight was the golden ceiling with crystal chandeliers and a familiar face, and this face was so close to him.
"Brother Faen, ...... My power!" Sharon subconsciously called out the other party's name, but halfway through the conversation, she suddenly found that her bloodline power could not be mobilized, and the bloodline power that had worked so hard to raise to the level of a great knight actually disappeared!
"Fain, what are you doing!" The man next to him woke up a few seconds earlier than Sharon, so he noticed Fern's abnormality.
Fein laughed: "Constant, what do you think I want to do?"
"Did you arrest us? Why?" Sharon was also a battle-hardened knight, and quickly restrained her panic and found that the reason why she could not mobilize her bloodline power was because her hands and feet were wearing imprisonment bracelets and anklets.
She and Constant have known Finn since childhood, adventured together, grew up together, were promoted to knights, got the title of kingdom, are no strangers to the dark mountains, and often come to the edge to look for rare materials.
Who knew that the castle was not as simple as Finn said, the three of them were attacked by many powerful dark creatures, and after a bloody battle, they encountered a strange fog and fell into a coma, only to find that Finn had become so strange.
"Fain, he has long been my slave." "Finn" laughed madly, suddenly, his eyes bulged up, as if they would explode immediately, and then, in his nostrils, mouth, and ears, octopus-like tentacles grew one after another, and his skin turned scarlet.
"Mind Flayer!" Constant shouted a little desperately, this kind of monster is good at controlling minds and is good at many related spells, if it falls into his hands, it is definitely worse than death, maybe in the future he will be a slave to the other party with all his heart while retaining most of his memories and personality.
"Finn" shook his head: "I'm not a Mind Flayer, I'm just a heavenly knight with the Mind Flayer's bloodline, I was seriously injured and dying, I couldn't recover, who knew that the news of the ruins I deliberately spread before actually attracted adventurers, and their brains became the source of my recovery, including Finn, hehe, greed is indeed the beginning of bad luck, in order to not see the shadow treasure, they actually came to my castle one after another."
"When I suck out your brains and transform them into my slaves, my injuries will basically recover."
With such words, Finn had an indescribable ferocity against the background of the dark mist, which made Sharon, a determined knight, tremble slightly, which was more terrifying than death.
The tentacles of "teeth and claws" next to "Fain's" head spread towards Sharon and Constant, aiming directly at their heads.
Sharon and Constant couldn't use their blood power, so they could only support their bodies with their hands and retreat backward, their backs pressed against the cold wall.
"It's useless, the reason why I don't use mind control to make you obedient is because I want to appreciate your expression of fear and fear." "Fain" laughed proudly.
There is actually not much difference between the Dark Knight and the ordinary knight, but because their bloodline is often related to demons, devils or mind flayers, etc., it will affect their personality and mental state.
After feeling that the cold and slippery tentacles had touched her face, no matter how firm her will was, she couldn't stop Sharon from shouting in despair and horror:
"No!"
"It's useless, this is deep in the dark mountains, in my castle, there is no life around except my slaves, no matter how loud you shout, no one will hear you, hahahaha." "Finn" clearly liked Sharon's fearful behavior, so he stopped his tentacles, adding to their despair once again.
Dong dong dong.
A rhythmic knock on the door suddenly sounded, and the three people in the room "froze" in place as if they had pressed the pause button.
Who? At this time, in this place, how could someone knock on the door? Among the three, Finn was the most frightened, no one knew the situation around him better than him, and there might not be a wise life who knocked on the door in a year or two passing by, and this was his own castle, and there was also the "dark mist" outside that he had worked hard to find the Mind Flayer elder to arrange!
At this moment, he felt like he was back in his childhood, when he always pestered his father and mother to tell horror legends, and then he was so scared that he didn't dare to sleep at night.
Dong dong dong.
The knock on the door was neither loud nor small, and it seemed polite.
"Who?" Fein withdrew his tentacles and asked guardly, as a heavenly knight, he still had basic qualities and did not have blind impulses.
Sharon and Constant were surprised, frightened and expectant at this time, even if they temporarily escaped their tragic fate, they were not relieved, at this time they found the castle of "Finn" It was definitely not a special trip to save the two of them, it was likely to be the enemy of "Finn", and the strong men of the Dark Mountains would not deal much better with the two of them than "Finn".
"Me." A gentle male voice came from outside, "Since someone is here, then I'll come in."
Who knows who "I" is! "Finn" couldn't figure out the other party's strength, so he cursed in his heart while stopping in place and didn't open the door. This is the core of the entire castle, surrounded by many defensive magic circles, and it is not so easy to break in!
At this time, he saw the doorknob turn and the door slowly opened.
No! "Faen's" eyes widened even more, where is my transcendent magic circle? What about my layers of defense? This room is the core of my control over the entire castle, the most heavily defended place, but how can it look like an ordinary hotel room now? Why did those defenses disappear?
"Finn" stood in place like a stone statue, watching the door open completely, and watching a handsome man wearing a black double-breasted long dress slowly walk in.
"I, I surrender, don't kill me!" "Finn" could guess how big the gap between himself and the other party was without using his brain, so he begged for mercy without hesitation, without caring about his own face at all.
Then, he added: "I have a good relationship with the nearby Mind Flayer tribe, I have visited the 'Elder's Brain', and if you need my help, I can do it for you."
This is moving out of your own backstage and making the other party a little scrupulous.
Lucian laughed and said: "I'm just here to ask for directions and inquire about something, so you don't have to be so serious."
If you can't find out again, then you have to go to the King of Nightmares.
"Ask for directions...... "Finn" felt that he was about to spit out a mouthful of blood.
Suddenly, a jingling sound sounded, and Sharon and Constant's bracelets and shackles fell off one by one, but there was no abnormal fluctuation in the entire room.
This, this is even more exaggerated than eliminating bloodlines...... "Finn" has seen a lot of bloodlines, but he has never seen such a situation, and he doesn't know what kind of power it is.
When Sharon and Constant excitedly wanted to express their gratitude, Lucian smiled and said, "That's right, I want to inquire about how the nearby Observer Castle was moved."
…………
Ten minutes later, Lucian left the castle with satisfaction.
According to "Finn", at this time yesterday, the "Observer's Castle" was still in place, but then news came from the Dark Council headquarters to summon all the legendary members.
This seems to be the move of the ancient dragon Danissus and the vampire prince Dracula, who wanted to truly knead the Dark Council into one, after all, now that the power of the Magic Council, the Church, the Elven Kingdom and the Endless Ocean is getting stronger and stronger, the Dark Council itself can no longer be so dispersed.
This is what "Finn" learned from the "Elder's Brain", and he was inevitably terrified by the sudden disappearance of the Observer's Castle.
In view of the fact that "Finn" was very satisfied with his intelligence, Lucian did not kill him, but just put on him the confinement bracelet and ankle bracelet (this can only work on those below the highest level, but "Fain" has not fully recovered), as for what will happen after that, it is not his consideration.
"It is very difficult to change the dispersion and internal strife of the Dark Council, is Dracula willing to restrain his emotions and live in peace with the werewolves?" Lucian shook his head and smiled, preparing to go and take a look, and visited Mr. Rhein by the way, "I hope I won't be full of brains at that time......"
