Chapter 542 Show your trump card

Due to the influence of the Spider Goddess, most drow have a special liking for spiders. They not only use spider-shaped ornaments, but in some places, they also use harming spiders as a legitimate excuse to attack enemies. They even use spider silk to build cities above the underground abyss, just like a spider weaving a web.

So when you see a large group of eight-legged creatures running out of a cave, followed by dark elves, there is basically no escape, they must be believers of the Spider Goddess.

The scene was already chaotic, with the Wild Bear Mercenaries and the Glowing Ion Order of the Yin fighting each other fiercely, and this group of drow with spiders rushing out of the cave, it was even more unclear which side they wanted to help.

Because they beat both sides.

This is like the Chu-Han contention turned into the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, with everyone participating together.

Under the protection of the invisible magic ball, Olde quickly grabbed Nimia and Zora, signaling them not to move.

The invisibility orb merely makes you invisible to others, but smell, sound, and even sixth sense may give away their location.

This is not an unfounded worry. It seems that the five-headed snake whip in the hand of the female drow who is the leader is twisting like a real snake, giving people the feeling that it is spitting out its tongue.

This is the standard weapon used by Spider Queen priests. In addition to being sufficiently pious, the priest's perception ability will gradually increase as the time he serves the deity increases.

To be fair, even if Zora stood in Zora's position, Alday would be discovered by Zora if he walked over using invisibility, not to mention Zora who had been a priest for a longer time.

In addition to spiders of all sizes, there was also a group of drow warriors wielding exquisite swords joining the melee, and there were also mages, but very few.

The female drow dressed as priests basically watched the show from above and did not leave the stage immediately.

This is because of the different social status.

The spider goddess Rose only accepts female drow as her priests, so women have a very high status in drow society.

Their social status is priests, women, mages, and warriors. For male drow, the highest status they can reach is to become the chief mage or chief warrior of a family. Other non-drow races are considered inferior slaves by them.

This social status also made the priests feel that it was natural to drive slaves and men to fight and reap victory when the opportunity arose.

Of course, in the current situation, it may also be because the priests do not want to expose the fact that they cannot use divine magic.

Having a high social status does not mean you can sit back and relax. The drow are a very "motivated" race. If those in high positions show the slightest flaw, they will be stabbed in the back by their subordinates and replaced. Few drow can live to the end of their lives.

Having said that, the drow priest was too close to the cave the three wanted to enter, almost right next to it, so before finding an opportunity to escape, Alde decided to stay here and watch the show in hiding, since they weren't the ones getting beaten anyway.

So the three of them found a rock above to use as a cover to avoid flying arrows and other stray bullets, and watched the show for the time being.

Actually, there are no drow in the Demon Realm. These black elves can only live underground. They will go blind or even die if exposed to sunlight. Only a few drow who have escaped the evil control of the Spider Queen have the ability to move on the surface.

For example, the drow who believe in the moon maiden Eilistraee.

Originally, elves were not native to the Demon Realm, let alone a species that was strongly restricted to a certain region. All that Alde knew about the drow came from descriptions in books.

This also shows how much of a dog-coin race the drow are. Even the planes where there are no drow activities have heard of their shitty deeds.

The joining of Zhuoer also caught the Wild Bear Mercenaries and the Glowing Ion Yin Society by surprise, and both sides suffered a small loss.

However, it is almost impossible for a group of big spiders alone to cause any serious threat.

The life span of elves is about 500 years, and their extremely long life span makes their fertility rate not very high, which is reflected in the fight, that is, there are not enough people. The male drow who can clearly see the outcome hide behind the big spider and stab, and dare not go up to fight hard. After all, they are not in a numerical advantage at all, and they may suffer if they rush too hard.

It was unclear what the Wild Bear Mercenaries were planning, but the Glow Ion Yin Cult probably didn't want to continue to fight, so they revealed their trump card immediately.

From the surrounding purple-black cracks, a large group of mechanical creatures that looked like wild beasts or monsters emerged, like beast-shaped golems.

Their strength was not as great as that of golems, but their movements were more agile. Giant spiders alone could not stop them at all, and their numbers were quite large. As soon as they appeared, they started to beat the drow and wolf mercenaries.

However, the defense of these guys is far inferior to that of the golem. It feels like they are wrapped in iron sheets. Any heavy weapon can make a hole in the shell, not to mention the fine swords of the drow. Only their large numbers can hold down the two sides.

Alde, who was watching the show, recognized at a glance that this was a magic shell. It was indeed an alchemical creature, but it was really a shell in the literal sense.

Their interior, which is the power core, is the heart of the monster.

Many monsters are born with spell-like abilities. Unlike mortals who store magic in their souls, monsters store magic in their hearts.

A typical example is the dragon.

Since the heart has the function of storing magic power, if we take out the heart and install it on a machine, wouldn't it be like having a battery?

So the magic case was created.

The more powerful the monster, the more magic power its heart can produce, and vice versa. However, it is a waste to put the heart of a powerful monster into a salt water tank and use it as a battery.

However, the magic output power of the heart of a low-level monster is insufficient to carry its overly heavy mechanical body.

Due to the existence of this objective fact, the magic casing has become a cheap substitute for golems and puppets. The advantage is that it is really cheap. As long as there is a wizard to make the core, the casing and mechanical structure can be easily mass-produced in a blacksmith shop.

The disadvantage is that cheap goods are not good. Their combat effectiveness is far inferior to that of golems, and they can only rely on numbers.

However, in such a chaotic battle, a large number of magic shells are still quite useful. Even if you can kill one with one sword, you will be helpless if I pull out ten.

After all, cheap means it can be mass-produced.

The appearance of the magic shell has significantly reduced the pressure on the Glow Ion Yin Society. There are also quite a few Wild Bear mercenaries, and they are constantly running out from the dark caves below. In terms of numbers, they can still hold out.

But the drow who suddenly joined the battlefield were a little overwhelmed. Their numbers were small to begin with, and the big spiders they drove over could not withstand the magic shell. The situation did not look good.

But it was not only Orde and her companions who were standing up there watching the show. Several female drow priests did not leave the field immediately. They watched their people being beaten back step by step. Even the beauty of the elves could not hide their faces that were twisted with gnashing teeth.

"Trash! Kill these inferior races!"

The five-headed snake whip in her hand raised its head, making a hissing sound, as if responding to its master's anger.

The other drow priests around them looked at each other and raised their holy emblems downwards.

Circles of purple-black light waves spread out, as if they could distinguish between friend and foe, bypassing their own people and the giant spider, and all blew onto the enemy's face.

What the hell? They can actually use magic?
