FINAL BATTLE WITH EVIL.
(On the third level of "LORD OF CHAOS".)
Sinister glow of candles flickered on the white stone
corridor, and every step of the heavy echo sounded muffled,
carry forward into the unknown. Mazirian walked cautiously
stretched out his right hand forward, to lose no time to fight
or shut the spell. Red demon back protects it and the danger
was just ahead. Another twist - and suddenly forward, blindly
eyes, shading and discoloring the surrounding world, with
increasing noise spell hit the enemy. Numb hands, the fire
began to eat clothing and Mazirian horror felt pain bites into
his stranglehold, but the pain of the soul was stronger body
aches. His head throbbed: "How so?" How so? " And when both of
these pain merged, he felt that this is the limit and sank into
the darkness, and only remnants of consciousness caught the
triumphant laughter Rugar ...
Slowly coming to himself, Mazirian surprise felt that the
body does not hurt, and that light is trying to break through
the closed eyelids. "It's a dream just a dream." - Mazirian
reassured himself, but the calm did not come, and even his cat
cautiously looked around the sides. Mazirian realized that not
having calmed down, he can not even start preparing for battle,
fell on his knees and rested his head on stone of wisdom. Cold
marble pripechatat forehead and flew hours, merging into the
infinite future. He did not know how he stood so only this time
he again lived his long life.
Ochnuvshison once knew him to be a deadly fight
knew, but did not fear him, and waited. Everyone is preparing
for death own: the patient write a will, the sailors are
changing clothes, and magicians put your head amulet. Great
magicians can not spend its energy and therefore do not have
children, but are students. Mazirian with thought sadly that he
had no one: neither the children nor the students. Holding the
amulet, he put forth that if you win, it will look for his
pupil, and not - ... Wearing a heavy chain with a magic circle
the sun, he quietly went to the library, although I knew that
it was unlikely that find there the castle of darkness. And so
it happened: the only inscription brown ink reads: "I saw the
castle of darkness ...". The letters were jagged and gnarled,
and Mazirian realized that the man wrote in blood, as the time
to look at the ink it was not. Sun has already rose up and
began the day. Glancing view room, he took road knapsack,
stroked the cat and got on the magic circle, saying the portal
spell. If u go to the castle of darkness, then it is better
day. Why give Ragarilu trumps the night? Mazirian knew spell
portal, and Rugar, following the code of the great magicians,
was obliged to give him access to the third world, or he would
lost his magical powers. Mazirian knew that the choice of the
place remained for Ragarilom and that he would try to win on
this one. But the choice of was not. He could not walk, but
walking, and Rugar did not want to see But let's palace. With
each word spells become fainter light, blurred outlines of the
walls and loomed black a temporary corridor. "Just a dark," -
time to think Mazirian and disappeared into it.
* * * * *
Rugar could not conjure up the appearance of the enemy, but
he could prepare for the appearance of an uninvited guest to
another. And he tried to glory. Even now at the thought of
these preparations, He wanted to rub his hands with pleasure.
"Well! Welcome, Mazirian! even knew by heart the castle, not
Rugar could get used to the new walls, partitions tricky, but it
Goblin yesterday narrowly escaped death in the new unseen trap.
"That's and tested "- chuckled quite a while Rugar. Increasing
noise and shrieking with fright soaring bats, said Ragarilu,
that Mazirian use spells portal and now stands at
his castle. Cheerfully jumping up and standing in a pentagram
ring, Rugar thought, respectfully: "Bold, and yet could easily
be trained in the catacombs, calling the spirit of an innocent
is Elbo. Good Practice no risk no one interferes. "And it is
not wasting any time, Rugar started call into being their
accomplices. Lightning flashed, the fragrance smoke and stir
the outlines of the emerging army of darkness.
* * * * *
Recovering, Mazirian looked around. Still there! Rugar used
his trump card and brought him out of the portal in the very
corner hall of the castle. Still looking, Mazirian had two
friends demons and Pegasus, since realized that the way to
close Ragarilu not work. While out of the fog loomed features
satellite Mazirian thought that this fight will be like a chess
battle. There too, to getting at the enemy king, but after
putting a good half of the army. Demons friendly smile: "Hi,
boss!" Mazirian and nodded to them. His demons liked him. He
himself created figure and his demons were smiling, though in a
battle of a smile shudder. From the hall were two doors: the
north and east. "Let's try this way first," - he decided
Mazirian and a demon in his order to open the northern gate and
moved on, and the other Mazirian sent east to the first
intersection to guard and not let anyone hit in the back.
Mazirian sat on the Pegasus and rode slowly behind a formidable
intelligence, but then realized that not only close, but will
not be an easy way. In an instant the demon was gone, and
before his eyes appeared vines. "Wow!" Mazirian not surprised
themselves, and commended myself for having sent a demon
forward. Tom was nestrashny such obstacles, he broke through
with a roar their way forward, but Mazirian ordered: "I first
tries way to you! "As long as the demon struggled, Mazirian
thought:" if I just bumped into a trap, then what other
surprises await me? "- and wasted no time, he summoned a ghost:
a weak, amorphous creation was indispensable for the
exploration. Quietly penetrating through walls, it could see a
lot. "Fly, check it!" - Ordered Mazirian and apparition slowly
disappeared, having gone through the beautiful white stone
walls. Yes, this world does not compare to predyduschimi.Les,
catacombs, where they equal the splendor of the castle. White
walls, marble patterned floor, beautiful candles in gilt
candelabra, to be sure: the beauty of it and the castle of evil
beauty. Mazirian saw collapsed last branch of the vines, and as
the demon began to burst forth. Even this shaggy Scarecrow was
not easy to get out of this trap, and any other would have
stayed there forever. Finally demon could go on and Mazirian go
after him, but reaching the middle of the hall, he again saw
the falling climber. And once the demon was making the road.
Coming out of the trap, Mazirian gave respite to the demon, and
again set off. But the roar of Satan's throats, shouting,
trampling, the sound of blows Mazirianu said that his hairy
friend has already found his opponent. "It's interesting,
because the corridor was totally clear, but now has a huge
giant, bleeding backs back. "bright light on the left was
getting stronger and saw a shimmering Mazirian purple circle.
"Unilateral teleport!" - Mazirian heard knew that this peak of
magic, but had never seen. "So, Rugar made such teleports in
the castle, and can send their Warriors in the necessary
places! "Mazirian tense and rushed past teleport podospev to a
head battle. Sharp claws, the demon tore heart of a giant, and
he fell in a dead-end wall, left to lie shapeless pile of gray.
Mazirian meanwhile, looked haunted eyes and remember what they
see. So: here the trunk, there is still and again, but hiding
killers: goblin, zombie, even some ghost that is dangerous even
for a demon, if strike first, and surprise. And here is the
throne room Rugar, but ghost just look and in horror ulepetalo.
Yes, and have something: himself a magician, a demon ghosts,
trolls, vampire, an army of giants zla.I all scream, break,
snap canines. But for this second Mazirian noticed that in the
corners of rooms are flashing four red circle starting point
teleports. "So, in four places you can expect uninvited guests.
Only that's where these places? Wait and see! "Examining north
wing and is found in one room key from the door, Mazirian
returned once again broke through the vines to the place where
you started the path. Going to the eastern door, he slowly
explore the labyrinth. In one room he was in a museum of arms
mages killed Ragarilom. What is just not there: bows, shields,
battle axes, spears, swords and even a shuriken. All of it,
which failed to help their owners, lying in a beautiful display
cases of heavy-duty glass. "Once you work!" - Said Mazirian
demon, and when he broke the glass with a few attempts, took a
bow, shuriken and a shield. "You're not handy, can be useful to
me" - he said the former owners and moved on.
* * * * * *
Looking into the magic ball, Rugar mused: "boldly go,
Mazirian, even reckless: only a demon and Pegasus". And wanted,
even as once to rush into battle, but he knew that to him was
not a simple magician, a killer junior Lords. And who knows
what would happen had he with him. Close Mazirian magic shield
to cause assistants, begin to beat the lightning, but rain
curses. Maybe odoleesh it, maybe ... "But why take the risk, if
he still All koridaram have to go, but it is not rolled carpet
walk! "- and Rugar abruptly laughed a laugh so that even the
undead took a step back.
* * * * *
Going to a sturdy oak door, Mazirian noticed lying on the
half roll. He ordered him to lift a sacrifice on the altar
Mazirian took the bridle of Pegasus and cautiously opened the
door. Comfortable rooms, in the depth of which stood the altar.
But this was not a church altar, and Altar, spattered krovyu.I
as not resist soul Mazirian, he also had to pay someone to
slaughter the forces of darkness. "For what to pay and who to
pay? "thought on.Dazhe weak warrior was needed, Mounts alone,
because a lot of this very long corridors do not run against.
"We'll have to give the centaur" - sadly thought Mazirian. Here
the breadwinner was out of work. Summoning the spirit and
waiting for the Incarnation, led Mazirian zalu.Neobychaynoy
beauty sex purple color feast for the eyes, and in the corner
lay another roll. "The flame of hope burning bright!". "Well
enough!" I'll be back, take a pebble in a fight! " - Mazirian
tired, he was tired of walking through the maze, solving a
mystery with no tangible benefits, but came to the stone, he
suddenly found himself in a trap: green flames surrounded him,
and no burning was not allowed back. And why did he not only
took the scroll from the trunk? After all, there a hint, but he
forgot in the heat of the entire text. "Maybe I can fly?" -
Mazirian drank the elixir, but felt unusual lightness in the
body, take off all the same I could not. "Do not go!" despair
already creep into my heart when he remembered the catacombs
and a sly smile Elbo. "Jumper" Only close. I after three spells
with him ... "When he came to, Mazirian saw that freedom and
stands next to the walls of the throne room of the castle.
"Well, a ghost, has discovered that there! While I rest."
Seeing the army Rugar, Mazirian just shook his head: The Force
and the unequal fight will be difficult. And Mazirian prayed
maramor fair and all the bright gods, so they sent him the
wisdom and courage. And they probably could not leave it
unanswered, sent in his head bold and mischievous idea. Become
a teleport, that walls interfered with the enemy, and tease
him! "- he ordered a ghost, pointing to the side closest to the
demon, and prizraku.Prividenie peeking out from the wall and
zauhalo, whistled, and the whole army Rugar a few moments to
recover. But the order triggered faster consciousness: the
demon and ghost, and a giant failed to teleport rushing
directly to privideniyu.I although Rugar destroyed it in the
next second, he was left without protection. Meanwhile Mazirian
closed magic shield and teleport into the room where waiting
for him unknown. Rugar wanted to rush ahead, but saw the golden
glow of protection and sent them ahead of giants and zombies.
They ran to Maziriana and hug him, bending to the floor.
"Gotcha!" Rugar screamed - "the end of thee."
* * * * *
Crouching in the ram's horn, Mazirian hurriedly whispered
spells off. "Faster, faster, until the action ended in a magic
shield ... Flight!" - Choking and spitting fur giant Mazirian
shouted end of the sentence and began to climb upwards, not
feeling the gravity of the beetle on its body. Enemies at once
let him go they were afraid of heights than Ragarila.Mazirian
flew up to his foe and fell beside him. "Mean soul! Get ready
to justice!" But I'm even dirty my hands on you I will not.
You're not the magician of darkness, and worm, a snail, but I
got to your sink! "And Mazirian summoned a demon, vampire, and
blow a magic lightning forced the Giants Rugar, came to the
rescue to help, to attack its host. And yet the one twirling
round and round parried their blows, shaggy demon slowly
approached Ragarilu and scope slashed clawed paw. "This is for
the first brother!". Cracked fabric shield fell, but Rugar
stood. More blow: "it's for the second brother!". Rugar dropped
to one knee, the stream of blood spurted from the broken ribs
on the floor, but his eyes gazed without fear, and his lips
were whispering order. And Mazirian not understand who and how
to fall on top of him, but realized that he has not long to
live if he does not get rid of the enemy. "To me!" had to order
it - and it saved him. Demon knocked with him and tore
viciously hissing vampire - the last hope Rugar. "Rugar, turn
to good or perish!" - "No, Mazirian, I'm not afraid of death,
it is closer to me!" - Wheezing and Rugar remnants of faith and
magic brought to life the giant, and zombies. But Mazirian
immediately sent to meet them invisible-fairy. And although she
died, but time has been won. Demon caught Rugar and without
haste, with two strokes laid the greatest magician of the dark
half of the world.
Just a few seconds to lay wizened old man with malicious
grin, and then poured into a giant prah.Raneny difficulty
standing, fighting off a vampire clinging, and the craven
zombies Rugar ran into the teleport.
"That's all ..." - Somehow detached Mazirian thought - "well
yet the action of the elixir of flight is not over, but it
would ...". wounds were superficial, but serious. from blood
loss dizzy and flickering lights portal presented not
fireworks, as to think and dream, but simply a signal to the
rest all tired out and the wounded body. Treading heavily, he
went.
Tomorrow he will be back, restore order, and while sleeping,
sleeping ... AND already entering the portal, Mazirian
remembered, and smiled: "Yes, but some students will now have
to find ..."
