Chapter 30: Hell Is Over?
There's indeed a Greenwich mage here, and it's right underground, and it's right in the ground that the demon Bart has come out of. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe huge boulder is a cover.
In fact, there is a larger space inside, but this size is only relative.
The underground space could not accommodate the entry of so many people from Li Jie and his party. More people still have to stay in the space on the ground, and they also need to watch over their surroundings.
However, seeing this Greenwich mage was not like what Li Jie thought.
Originally, seeing that Lan was not very friendly to the Mages of the Greenwich faction, Li Jie thought that the two would have a conflict. But in the end, it turned out that he was overthinking.
The expected conflict didn't happen at all, because there's no way a dead person can jump out of the graveyard and quarrel with you.
Well, that's the reality in front of Jeffrey.
A Mage in Greenwich for some reason, perhaps Master Merlin wrote something in a book. Or maybe it's something he's found on his way to the true meaning of magic.
Anyway, for whatever reason, the mage went to Hell with his minions, the Sheephorn Demon Bart, in a special way.
Then, there is no then.
He lay quietly here, protected by a coffin that Bart had made out of stones. And he has been dead for almost five years.
The craftsmanship of the coffin is crude, and it seems that the person who made it did not have much experience in folding and did not have the slightest artistic talent.
The knife marks that were indiscriminately chiseled with sharp weapons are still left on the outside of the sarcophagus, which looks pitted. At first glance, it is clear that this was made in a very hurry.
"This looks like it was supposed to be the laboratory in front of Master Rooney. Because there was a small tombstone in front of the coffin, with the mage's name engraved on it, Li Jie and Lan knew what the mage should be called.
It's not a very open underground space, but it's well organized. Most of the furniture is made from the most common materials here.
It is made of black and gray hard stone. Unlike rough coffins, these furniture are made of the roughest stone.
But apparently the makers put in a lot of effort. The furniture is finely polished. Li Jie suspects that it should not be polished by hand.
Because he didn't think that a mage who came to Hell would be so bored and spend a lot of time polishing his furniture. Maybe it's all made with magic, but not necessarily.
This would explain why Barthes's coffin seemed out of place with the rest of the room's furniture.
Li Jie also saw a platform made of boulders. The platform is neat, and even in the middle of the platform there is a flowered font with the letter G, which looks like a decorative inscription.
"It seems that Master Rooney originally intended to stay here permanently. Li Jie made his own inference after looking at the furniture.
He's even in the mood for artistic carvings and inscriptions on his furniture, and it looks like he's really ready to stay here for a long time. ”
"But why did he come here, and why did he die here?" Arashi's brow was already twisted into Sichuan characters. She threw the question to Bart.
"Because the host is here for a study. Bart stroked the coffin, and a demon made such a move that made Li Jie feel a little chilly.
"What research?what about Master Rooney's books and magical notes?" Li Jie and Lan had just seen the bookshelves in this room, but they hadn't seen a single book.
There are bookshelves that prove that there were books here, or notes from the mage's experiments. But now there is nothing, and the only explanation is that it was taken by the demon Bart who is still alive here.
"Master Mage, this is hell. The master is dead, and he is not allowed to leave his remaining magical knowledge in hell. Bart lowered his head and stroked the coffin.
"So what about the books?"
"Burned according to the owner's wishes. ”
"All?"
"All!"
"Then why is Master Rooney here? Li Jie continued to search in the room, and he was also a little curious about a mage appearing in hell for no reason.
"Can't tell you, unreasonable stranger. I am only loyal to mages, not to humans. Bart didn't like Lee's questioning, and he looked a little angry.
He raised his head and shouted in Li Jie's direction, which seemed to be foul language, but it was said in demonic language, and Li Jie couldn't understand it.
"What is he talking about?" Li Jie glanced at Lan.
"He's cursing you for being merciful. Lan's explanation made Li Jie a little confused.
"Huh?"
"It's a curse in hell. Arashi explained. Well, because of the meaning of this foul language, Li Jie is not going to trouble Bart.
"Then you should tell me what Master Rooney is doing here. Arashi continued with Jie Lee's question.
Bart's eyes looked hesitant. His lips squirmed several times, but he still didn't speak.
"My patience is limited, Bart. If it weren't for the fact that you were a servant of the Greenwich Mage, I could have stripped your soul of the whole thing. I'm sure you saw that we were followed by a Ghost Rider. ”
"I think you understand what Ghost Riders represent, they can torture your soul, and the spirit of vengeance has the power to make your life worse than death. Arashi intimidates Bart with Johnny Blazer's identity.
Of course, this can only be intimidating, because Johnny is not an orthodox ghost rider, he is just an imposter who has been transformed by Mephisto. But that didn't stop Bart from being scared.
For most hellish demons, death is not terrible. Creatures born in hell have a much smaller fear of death than humans.
But they fear the torture of their souls, which will be a terrible punishment for never being able to transcend life.
Maybe those powerful bigwigs aren't afraid of the Ghost Rider's soul punishment, but there certainly isn't a single one named Bart on the list of these bigwigs.
Bart finally spoke up despite Arashi's threats. "I can't tell you everything because the host asked me to keep it a secret. This secret can only be told to the London Templar Mage Baron Mordo. ”
Li Jie and Lan glanced at each other, and the temple mage in London was also involved?
"How do you want to inform Mordo, write to him in Hell?" asked Bart with a slight teasingness. Although it is not known how this Mage Rooney ended up in Hell before.
But Li Jie didn't believe that an ordinary demon could simply leave hell.
"Of course not, I'm looking for an exit back to the world. Bart said, gesturing his hands and feet.
"Now the shadows of hell are spreading the news that there is an exit to the earth. Many demons are looking for this exit, and everyone is preparing to get out of here. ”
Li Jie suddenly felt a sudden shock in his heart. "Who's circulating all this, and why are demons leaving hell?"
Bart glanced at Li Jie out of the corner of his eye, and then said to Lan in a very regular manner. "Master Mage, I don't know who is circulating these rumors. ”
"As for why you want to leave hell. Because hell is almost over now. Bart came out with shocking news.
"My master and I entered here more than twenty years ago, when the Earth Dragon Nesario was still the ruler of the land. ”
"But everything changed after a while. As Bart spoke, there was a look of remembrance in his eyes. "Now you're here. Master Mage, there must be a way for you to return to the world. Please take me, I need to go back to Greenwich and bring the master's message to Baron Mordo. ”
