658 Night Valley (1/2)
As a claw extended out of the Hell Gate, the Orachiss became furious. The relationship between the Abyss and Hell generally wasn't very good, and this was especially true for the Orachiss… Their relationship with hellish lifeforms was utterly bad.
They would fight to their last breath when encountering hellish lifeforms, ready to pay any price to destroy them all.
While the Orachiss' attention was on the Hell Gate, Lin Yun cast three more Askrim Gates in front of the Dark Elves to help protect them from the berserk spells.
Lin Yun then unhesitantly jumped into the teleportation array and disappeared...
Hellish lifeforms weren't anything good. Many mages used Hell Gates, but they usually only summoned lesser hellish lifeforms that they could control in order to research them. No one would try to use them as allies.
Because the overwhelming majority of summoned hellish lifeforms would first try to get rid of the mage that summoned them. Only by enslaving them would it be possible to get them to aid one in battle.
Thus, even if Lin Yun knew of the deadly enmity between Orachisses and hellish lifeforms, he didn't dare to use a Hell Gate in battle.
But it was different now. After going through the teleportation array, the battle that went on between them would have nothing to do with Lin Yun.
Furthermore, Lin Yun had put a lot of mana into this Hell Gate, but he had no clue what he had summoned.
The Dark Elves welcomed the breather that Lin Yun created for them. Without the suppression from the Orachiss' spells, and with the activated teleportation array near them, the Dark Elves didn't even need to think about what to do as they crazily rushed into the teleportation array.
Light flickered as all the Dark Elves disappeared into the teleportation array, while the Orachiss was fiercely raining spells down on the Hell Gate on the other side.
...
On a dark leaf continent, a teleportation array carved on a branch of the Wisdom Tree slowly lit up. With a burst of light, Enderfa and the others came out of it.
They were followed moments later by Lin Yun.
And the first thing Lin Yun did after coming out of that teleportation array was to release a few dozen Mage Eyes to scout the surroundings.
After making sure that there was no danger near them, he relaxed a bit. Xiuban sat on the ground and massaged his aching arms, while Zeuss smiled bitterly as he started recovering his mana.
Less than ten seconds later, the array lit up once more, and the Dark Elves came out.
After barely surviving that disaster and seeing Lin Yun again, the gazes of these Dark Elves no longer had any hostility. Not a single one of them could deny that if that young human hadn't cracked that teleportation array and released those defensive walls at the last moment, none of them would have had the opportunity to survive.
It was actually Enderfa that suddenly became alert after seeing these Dark Elves. He readied the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel to guard against a possible sneak attack.
Lin Yun gestured at Enderfa and didn't bother with the Dark Elves. He had casually saved them just now. He wasn't afraid that they would cross him.
With Elsa and Jeremy included, there were only a dozen Dark Elves still alive, most of whom were completely out of mana and barely standing.
Lin Yun ignored them and turned to look at the surroundings some more.
This was like a sealed word. Leaves and branches of the Wisdom Tree were covering the sky, blocking all the light from outside. Only some fluorescent vegetation was illuminating the interior with some faint light.
Ahead of them was a quiet valley with unknown depths. Both sides of the valley had sheer cliffs.
After turning around, they only saw a dead end. There was nothing besides that bright teleportation array.
A strange and deathly silent aura came from the valley, and there seemed to be a faint whimpering coming from it.
Lin Yun used Detect Life and Detect Undead, but neither of them sensed anything.
That strange feeling made them uncomfortable.
Lin Yun cast Mage Eyes to examine the valley's environment when Jeremy suddenly screamed, ”Heavens, this is the Night Valley!”
He then pointed at Lin Yun with an angry look and yelled, ”It's all your fault, you vile outsider! It wasn't enough to bury our people, but you also led us to this place, you…”
