Chapter 301: The Palace of Gold
Chris nodded, and half an hour later, when the two of them looked at the staircase in front of them, they still had no end in sight, and they even had the desire to scold.
"Who is so boring to build such a long staircase?" said Andrea, "It is unforgivable to make Miss Ben so tired!"
Chris was made to laugh and cry again by the other party's remarks, and this out of desperation began to release the nature of the aristocratic lady, but how do you think this kind of brutal willfulness is also quite cute!
Chris, who had just had this thought, shuddered, he hadn't fully recovered yet......
Well, it seems that the after-effects of the remnants of that previous world are still there!
Half an hour, an hour, two hours...... Five hours, when the two of them were exhausted, they finally saw the huge palace gate not far ahead.
Because Andrea herself is from the royal palace, she is not very amazed by this splendid palace.
On the other hand, Chris's appearance of a dirt bun entering the city, fortunately there was no one around, otherwise Andrea would not want to walk with him.
It's such a shame.
Chris stroked a few pillars outside the palace gate and said in disbelief:
"Andrea, do you see it? These pillars are all made of gold, but there must be something else added to them, otherwise they wouldn't be so hard and strong. ”
Andrea walked to the golden gate with a helpless face and sighed:
"It's a pity that we can't move away, it's a pity!"
As he spoke, he pushed open the gate of the palace.
Light, a great burst of light and warmth swept over the two of them.
Before Chris could stop it, Andrea strode in, but there was no way, Chris had to follow closely.
Contrary to what they imagined, there were not many extravagant objects in the interior of this magnificent palace, as if the construction of the house consumed all the money of the owner, and the decoration and purchase of the house were so-so.
In the center of the main hall, there is a golden illusory door, the door frame seems to be made of gold, and the inside seems to be covered by a silver glittering film, making it difficult to see what is inside.
"Why is there a door in here?" Chris wondered.
Andrea walked to the side of the Golden Gate, and after a careful turn, replied uncertainly:
"Behind this film, it can't be the real underworld, right?"
Chris guessed:
"It's very likely, you said that the only way to get out of that world was to go to the underworld, but we did get here after entering the pillar of light, so the exit must be here. ”
"Then let's explore the palace now and see if there are any treasures of gold and silver, ah no, some other exits. ”
As she spoke, Andrea grabbed Chris's wrist and urged:
"Alright, don't look at this door, come with me on an expedition, you have to go ahead and protect Miss Ben." ”
Searching almost all the rooms in the palace, Andrea was disappointed, for there was no treasure or anything of value at all.
And just as they reached the innermost and final room, Chris suddenly grabbed Andrea's sleeve and stopped her from pushing the door.
"What's wrong?" Andrea's big golden eyes looked at Chris, puzzled.
"I don't know what it's like...... Chris hesitated, "but I don't think we'd better go through this door." ”
Because just now, the spirit in his body began to beat actively, and at the same time, he clearly felt that the "wheel of fate" suspended in his spirit body actually turned quietly.
There must be something unusual when things happen, so Chris wants to stop Andrea from entering.
Andrea looked at the doorknob made of gold, tilted her head and thought for a second, then smiled:
"Okay, since you don't want to go in, then let's not go in, there won't be anything of value anyway. ”
Immediately, Andrea took Chris by the way, and went to the door in the center of the palace hall again, which only had a door frame, and said:
"This looks like an enchantment that connects to other places, and it looks like we really have to enter it if we want to get out of here. ”
Looking at Chris, who was a little stunned, Andrea's strength in her hand gradually increased, and Chris screamed when she pinched her.
"Hey, are you listening to me! Really, you can desert at this time. ”
Chris rubbed his wrist, which was pinched red by Andrea, and smiled reluctantly:
"I'm listening, don't you mean that we have to go in and have a look, there is no other exit here, just listen to you, go in." ”
In fact, Chris noticed just now that as soon as they left the innermost area of the palace, the spirituality in his body had returned to stability, and the "Wheel of Fortune" was also free of any abnormalities, so he suspected that there must be something extraordinary in it.
But at the same time, the passive ability of his "gambler" "tells" him that if they do go in now, they may end up miserable.
After hearing this, Andrea hesitated, lowered her head to hide her expression and asked:
"If it's really the Underworld on the other side of the door, will you follow me?"
Chris said without thinking:
"That's natural, after all, I want to protect you, after all, the creatures in the underworld there are definitely not easy to deal with. ”
"Tell the truth!"
"Uh, well, I'll be honest, I don't know the way, so I need you to take me back to the human realm. ”
"Hmph, I know that you kid is coveting my peerless beauty!" Andrea said with her head slightly raised.
Hey, what kind of logic are you, it seems that you should take my first sentence!" Chris complained inwardly, and then said:
"When it comes to peerless beauty, I have a sister named Caroline Carol.
"She had joined the 'Gates of Hades' before because of something, probably because she was a witch, and she exuded a deadly temptation all over her body...... She really is the most stunning lady I have ever met. ”
"Oh, yes?" Andrea stared at Chris, smiling, "Do you secretly like your Caroline?"
"No, no!" Chris hurriedly waved his hand, "She's the ex-girlfriend of our 'Punisher' Corps, and my adoptive father's son before his death, so she's like a big sister to me." ”
"What a mess of relationships!"
The little girl's head grew for a while, and she punched Chris in the arm, but she still endured her shame and asked the question she wanted to ask the most:
"And what type of girl do you like?"
Chris couldn't help but sneak a glance at the other party's expression, and replied with a pretentious cough:
"I like kind, gentle, cute and simple girls, and of course, it would be better if they looked so good to you. ”
