Chapter 187 White Palace
Wan Yi took the little knight back the same way.
On the way back, even if there was no light, the power of the void was quite calm.
Even when passing by shadows, those shadows float aimlessly, and after a while they turn back into black particles and sink and disappear.
Climbing back from the abyss to the original entrance platform step by step, Wan Yi and the little knight left this terrible place without any regrets.
At the intersection early in the morning, they saw Cullom practicing on his own.
Hearing the noise, Cullom turned around and said, "You are finally back!"
It's not surprising. Wan Yi and his clones checked the time. He and the little knight were trapped in the void dream for more than a day.
He would not have been affected in the theater, but for unknown reasons after leaving the theater, he entered the dreamland where the Little Knight was.
That was the dream of the little knight tracing back to the origin of his birth.
To be precise, it is about the dream of the young knight.
However, what the little knight has walked is the old path of his predecessors.
The Abyss is where the Pale King crafted his secret weapon against the Blinding Light.
The Pale King saw the power of the void and believed that the power of the void could truly eliminate the blinding light, so he conducted countless researches.
The white mask is an empty container, carrying the void and sealing the blinding light.
The amount of work involved is huge.
Countless failed containers were buried under the abyss, and only a handful of containers truly climbed out of the abyss.
The first container to crawl out, the being that was nine times the same as the current little knight, was the only final product recognized by the Pale King.
It was regarded as a pure vessel, and was named "Hollow Knight" by the Pale Prince, who was unknown to the outside world.
It successfully completed its task, but the cruel reality did not meet the expectations that the Pale King wanted.
…
"It's time to go to the Palace Square next." Wan Yi looked at the little knight and said this time.
The little knight responded with action and walked directly towards the palace square.
Finally came here.
That vast open space.
The true birthplace of Hallownest, the residence of the Pale King, now only remains of ruins and a broken door.
They came to the door.
Cullom rubbed the knife and became surprisingly nervous.
The little knight took out the "Dream Sword" again, condensed the sword body, and slashed directly at the door.
Click!
A large number of dream flower patterns were scattered everywhere, and a white mark appeared in the door frame.
The little knight rushed into it, and Wan Yi and Kurom also followed through the door.
What is behind that is not ruins, but a white palace with a strange layout.
The palace is shrouded in clouds and mist, and occasionally strands of pitch-black, silver-white thorns can be seen covering the buildings. There are spikes protruding from the top of the building, and the ear-painful sound of chainsaws is looming.
Although I had seen it through the eyes of the moth clone, when I came in in person, it still felt very strange.
Three pairs of wings appeared behind the little knight, and as the wings flapped, it flew directly.
It was flying quite steadily and showed no signs of falling. It didn't matter to Cullom, but Wan Yi looked at it for a moment.
The Broken Knight is also one of the Little Knight's compatriots, but equipped with these wings, it can only help it climb quickly, and then stay in the air for a short time to form the illusion of a "double jump."
Why did you really take off directly?
The little knight left the platform and flew in the air, turning his head to look at Wan Yi and Kurom.
Wan Yi and Cullom looked at each other and said, "That... little knight..."
The little knight looked at them quietly.
"If the two of us are flying and falling down later, remember to hold us up." Wan Yi gave a thumbs up.
The little knight was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
In the end, Wan Yi and Kurom became the laggards in this link.
Fortunately, Wan Yi has gradually become proficient in cockroach wings and can fly longer each time. As long as Cullom doesn't make too violent movements during flight, his wings will usually not suddenly fail.
However, its wings are much smaller than before, its flying ability is further reduced, and it may completely shrink and fall off after a while.
While flying, a chainsaw suddenly flew out of the clouds and rushed toward the three in the air.
The three insects held hands and climbed up together to avoid the chainsaw. The next moment, three rows of chainsaws appeared directly in front of them.
There was also the sound of chainsaws coming from behind. When Kurom turned around, he saw a row of chainsaws coming from behind.
"The Pale King's taste is too unique!" Cullom finally sighed while holding back the blasphemy.
Just after finishing speaking, Wan Yi and the little knight worked together. The little knight mentioned Wan Yi, Wan Yi mentioned Cullom, and Cullom also quickly flapped his wings.
It took the lead to rush upwards. Wan Yi and the little knight were a little late, so they took out their weapons to resist the approach of the chainsaw.
呲——
Saw collides with weapon.
White sparks kept sputtering, making toothache-inducing sounds. The Knight and Wan Yi were caught between the chainsaws on both sides. After holding on for a moment, Cullom sent out a ring of flying blades from above to support them. After a moment of chainsawing, the two took this opportunity to rush out of the siege of the chainsaws together.
The chainsaw crushed the ring and the flying blades passed by each other and disappeared into the clouds.
After taking a short breath, the three continued to move forward.
"The scene here cannot be destroyed. Those chainsaws don't even have a fixed track in the air, but they are completely unable to shake it at all." Cullom said, recalling the scene where the ring's flying blade was shattered just now.
"In a sense, this should be regarded as the Pale King's dream." Wan Yi said.
"That king..." Cullom also felt that this was reasonable.
It is normal for the dreams of advanced beings to be a bit outrageous.
But does the Pale King like thorns, thorns and saws so much...
The fog floating in the white palace made the internal layout even more confusing. It was upside down and left and right. After being lost for a while, Wan Yi and the others chose to use these chainsaws to determine their direction.
While some saws are elusive, there are also many that are stationary.
Basically, just go to the place where there are many fixed saws, and you will gradually be able to see the subsequent road.
These aggressive appearances are symbols of the dream's resistance to outsiders. There is no doubt that the more aggressive the place, the more the dream wants to hide it.
In front of the little knight, the roads that are often invisible are revealed one by one.
Let the moth clone hiding in the clouds not far away feel jealous and envious. It will be tortured here until it becomes human-like!
What, no longer human? That's okay.
Then sideways to avoid a sudden appearance of a chainsaw.
This dream is now very targeted at the moth clones. At first, I thought everyone was like this, but it is obvious that the situation on the little knight's side is undoubtedly much better.
It seems that this dream is simply because I hate moths!
Thinking of this, the moth quickly climbed higher and avoided being flanked by two rows of electric saws.
Finally, in front of everyone's eyes, the superstructure of the white palace revealed its true face in the clouds and mist.
When we got here, it finally felt like we had entered a palace.
But after entering it, the top floor of the palace lost the whiteness of the lower floor, adding an air of decay eroded by the void, and the dark-brown environment brought desolation.
Along the way, I saw many puppets made by the Pale King using the power of the void, but they were all inoperable and their debris was piled up in every corner of the palace.
They stepped onto the final summit and saw the faded throne.
A figure he had seen in visions and dreams before sat quietly on the throne, looking straight ahead.
Cullom couldn't help but hold his breath, but the Knight and Wan Yi soon began to approach the throne unabashedly, catching it off guard.
"What are you afraid of? It's just a corpse." Wan Yi said.
"Corpse!?" Cullom screamed.
The Pale King is dead! ?
Even if Hallownest is now in such chaos, there is no doubt that this news will be a heavy bomb!
How many bugs are out there living in misery, and even so, they are still waiting for the king's return to lead them to victory and rebuild the kingdom of paleness and reason.
And now, tell them that the Pale King is dead?
The collapse of faith is easy to say, but the actual manifestation can be very terrifying.
Fortunately, the Mantis clan has already resisted the Pale King and the Kingdom of Hallownest, and Cullom has left Hallownest for a long time. To it, it is just the passing of a great existence.
Apart from feeling a little sad and sighing, there weren't many mood swings.
The little knight glanced at the body of the Pale King, but passed it over and came to behind the throne.
The thing behind him, covered by the remaining light from the Pale King's corpse, was a huge black stone egg.
Whoosh!
Moth Wan Yi fell directly from the sky and landed in front of the stone eggs: "It took no effort to get here. You have finally arrived."
"You are?" Cullom was confused.
The white furry one in front of me looks familiar.
"Drink, I am the messenger of the supreme radiation! I swear to rescue it!" said the "little moth" in front of him, directly emitting dazzling light and shining on the pebble.
The palace vibrated, and the stone eggs shook violently, cracks appeared on the surface, and finally exploded.
A huge black hole was revealed before his eyes, and the moth Wan Yi jumped into it.
At the break of the black egg, there is a void of liquid, thick and terrifying.
