Chapter 198 Source – Curse of Alienation
Look at that giant circular symbol.
Gary was at a loss. Although Milan has some impressions as a wizard, he is not too sure because of different majors: “This is?”
“The ceiling of the hall we just passed by. There is also a symbol on it, but the name of that one is ‘Kingdom’, and now the name of this hall is ‘Foundation’.
They are all ‘inverted trees’ or the top ten originals in ‘Life Tree’ One of the elements, more precisely the two at the bottom, are the tenth element and the ninth element.
Each hall corresponds to a different number of passages, representing the Twenty-two paths in ‘Inverted Tree’.
If I’m not mistaken, the layout of this subterranean ruin should be similar to ‘Inverted Tree’, with at least eight other halls still remaining Deeper.”
Alwin looked towards the passage leading to deeper at the end of the rotunda, revealing a thoughtful expression. The scale of this ruin may be much larger than I first imagined. Isn’t this hollowing out the entire island?
However, there is one thing Alwin didn’t say.
The deeper he goes into the ruins, the stronger his sense of spirituality will give him, and there seems to be some kind of existence in the depths of the ruins that attracts him.
However, looking at the reactions of Milan and Gary, they obviously did not have such a hunch.
Is it because of something special about yourself? The secret of the ruins has not been solved yet, but Alwin has a new mystery in his heart.
Nothing.
The three of them continued to move forward, and once again passed a stone platform that was not down but was equally empty.
The two halls are calm and tranquil, which is obviously completely different from what happened when the “White Shark Skook” led the pirates to explore. After all, it has been several years since the last time they came in, and no one can say what has changed in the ruins.
And the next hall may be the place where even “White Shark Skook” at the peak of Second Rank suffered a loss, and it was also the reason why he quit in a hurry and didn’t even have time to converge the corpses of his subordinates.
The normal “inverted tree” pattern has twenty-two paths connecting the ten primary substances. The general shape of this underground ruin is like this. In this “basic” hall, the entrances and exits are suddenly increased to Four.
It leads to the tenth element “kingdom”, the eighth element “brilliance”, the sixth element “beauty”, and the seventh element “victory” respectively.
Not dare to breakthrough, the entire group follows the normal path to the next eighth original hall, and the door is also open!
This made Alwin wonder for a while whether Skook received any other guidance besides the bronze key when he explored the ruins.
In the straight corridor, the three of them walked slowly.
The safety of the two consecutive halls not only did not make the three people relax, but instead became more tense. Unknown enemy, unknown attack method, unknown place of appearance, unknown time of appearance, all the uncertainties make them not dare to relax.
Even if it doesn’t get to the point where the grass and trees are all soldiers, but concentrated attention is completely alert to every movement here.
In the continuous progress, except for the corpses of fallen pirates that appeared on the ground from time to time, the same rock walls finally changed.
Crack!
It seems like a huge centipede-like crack formed after the wall breaks after an earthquake.
And after this abrupt crack.
“Is this the root of a plant?”
“Impossible! Even if there is a crack in the wall, what kind of plant’s roots can penetrate through a rock layer of unknown thickness and extend to Where is this place? And it has grown so much?”
Milan couldn’t help but exclaim.
However, the criss-crossed thick and long roots attached to the wall like climbing Mountain Tiger, but it can’t be faked. It was just the same as the wall with a slightly cold and hard color of iron and stone, and the scale that spread across the entire road made them think it was a relief carved on the rock wall at first.
Dang——
Without hesitation, since he realized that there might be something weird, Alwin directly drew his sword and cut it off. Although this kind of root is hard, it is far impossible to resist the sword of the official Knight.
When a piece of root falls on the ground, it really makes a sound like a stone hitting, and the fracture is smooth and there is not even a drop of tree sap that should be there.
It seems that the petrified wood that existed long ago has now been completely turned into stone, and there is no extraordinary feedback in the spirituality vision.
“No problem, move on.”
The light of “Illumination” gradually faded away with the sound of the three people’s footsteps.
However, in the darkened corridor, there was a rustling sound, as if there were thousands of poisonous snakes squirming gently.
In the second half of the corridor, more cracks appeared in the stone wall, and there were also cold and hard roots.
Tick tock
“There seems to be a sound of water in front?”
With the new movement, the three of them could not help but speed up their pace.
The stone gate in this hall is also open, as expected, but this time there is no need for the light of illumination, a blue orb on the stone platform in the center of the hall is shining brightly, The entire underground space is reflected in a blue sky.
And by its light, the ceiling was what Alwin had guessed as the “brilliant” quality.
Gary was about to step into the hall, but was blocked by both Alwin and Milan reaching out.
“Don’t go in!”
“Dangerous!”
The two wizards looked at each other, and the exploration of the ruins was finally no longer a peaceful “outing” “, they have noticed the strangeness of the blue orb in the middle of the hall at the same time.
Only because in their spirituality vision, the bright and undisguised black extraordinary aura escaping from the orb clearly told the latecomers, please don’t approach! Do not touch!
“This thing seems to be exuding some kind of strange curse all the time?!”
Using his expertise in early warning and detection, Milan closed his eyes and carefully sensed it. came to this conclusion.
“It may be nothing to irradiate the blue rays of light for a short time, but if you touch the bead directly with your hands, some kind of terrifying curse may take effect immediately!”
“Well, and have you noticed that the stone platform under the bead is exactly the same as the two halls in front.
As a pure Knight, there is no wizard spirit. Vision. Is it possible to directly enter there, trying to take that precious jewel like the previous one?”
Alwin suddenly thought of something here, and said in unison with Milan who was prompted. : “Curse of Alienation!!!”
Legend has it that “White Shark Skook” suffered some kind of vicious curse a few years ago. In addition to being unable to sleep, his appearance gradually changed to that of a real shark. Approaching, indirectly created the name of the ferocious and bloodthirsty “white shark”.
“Could it be that ‘White Shark’ was cursed here a few years ago? That orb is the source of the curse?!
Yes, although pirates before The casualties are not small, but the scale of the ‘Sharktooth Pirates’ is far from breaking the bones, and it is fully capable of further exploration.
It must be because Skook himself appeared. The problem caused the exploration not to continue!”
I don’t know why, in addition to the curse of Skook, Alwin also thought of the “Ocean Treasure·Mist” obtained from the “Sharktooth Pirates” in his hands “Silver Lamp”, will it have been placed on a stone platform in the previous two halls?
“Then what are we? What’s the sound?”
The three of them turned around at the same time, looking towards the direction they were behind.
In the darkness, the rustling sound became louder and louder, as if there were countless snakes writhing and neighing, but the strong wind that assured the senses one step ahead told them that there was no weird smell.
Fully alert.
With their backs against the stone wall, the three raised their sharp long swords at the same time.
“Come!”
Soon the roots and vines that were wriggling fast on the ground rushed like a group of snakes, almost as if the entire corridor had come alive Same!
And not only the smell, in their spirituality vision, not to mention the possible transcendent aura, they can’t even find a trace of life.
This is a pile of petrified wood that should have turned to stone!
“It turned out to be those roots from before?! How is it possible? The roots that have been turned into stone are still alive?” The impact was the biggest, almost directly subverting the past cognition of the world, throwing it on the ground and smashing it. Even if he encountered sea monsters and beat transcenders of evil, he was still shocked by this kind of thing beyond common sense.
“Is it some kind of extraordinary plant with strong life force and concealment?”
As he spoke, the twisting roots were already close to the three people, as Among the three, Alwin with the strongest martial power took the lead, and the long sword in his hand turned into a dazzling light curtain that blocked the front without any blind spots.
clang! clang! clang!
Sparks flew, and the Swift Wind Rainstorm-like symphony of gold and stone resounded through this underground space!
