Chapter 0309: Haunted Corridor
As soon as you step into the corridor, everything in front of you quickly becomes dark!
The walls of the corridors, which were already dark in color, are decaying and fading at a rate visible to the naked eye. The skin of the wall was constantly warped, broken and peeled off, and then quickly withered and withered in the air. The skin peeled off, revealing the rusty metal wall below, and a low, shocking rumble began to echo in my ears.
"Seems like an illusion!" Kerr whispered, leaning behind him.
"Who has the materials to restrain illusion?" Will, who walked in front, trembled a little.
Senior apprentice Warren fumbled around his waist for a while, took out a black clay pot, and said softly: "I have a little psychedelic grass, which of you needs it?"
"I" ...... "I" ...... "I"
The other three were overjoyed, and they couldn't help but ask for it.
Psychedelic grass is a herb with serrated leaf edges, and is one of the basic materials for making psychedelic potions. If psychedelic grass is ground into a paste and applied to the tip of the nose, it can refresh the mind and enhance the body's ability to resist hallucinations.
After the four of them concocted it according to the law, they were about to turn around and ask Alice if they needed it, but they found that the other party was holding a shiny magic gem in his hand, and he couldn't stop looking at the changes around him.
This gemstone is diamond-shaped, colorless and transparent, and when held in the hand, a soft light shoots out, giving a sense of tranquility and clarity.
True Sight Gem!
The muscles on the faces of several apprentices twitched, and they were speechless for a while.
This kind of magic gem that can see through stealth and illusion abilities has a minimum market value of 400 magic crystals, which they can't afford to buy with their financial resources. And the other party is also a wizard apprentice, although he is a more noble quasi-witch, he can easily take out one.
This...... The gap between apprentices and apprentices is too big!
Alice shook the True Vision Gem and moved a little closer to the wall, and the dilapidated and withered scene she had just seen vanished in an instant. The walls reverted to a dark brown wood texture, and everything was the same as before.
Sure enough, it's an illusion!
When several apprentices saw it, they finally put down their snacks.
Will walked forward with a bitter face again.
Based on the length of the one-sided building of the castle, this corridor is less than 100 meters at most. With the eyesight of a few people, even if the lights are dim, they should be able to see the end of the corridor at a glance. But it was strangely tight, and the sight of a few people could only extend to seven or eight meters away at most.
The scene in the distance seemed to be engulfed in darkness, and it was impossible to see at all.
It looks like some kind of illusion effect again!
Will moved forward slowly, his eyes constantly scanning his surroundings and feet. The slightest change or anomaly would stop him until he was sure there was no danger.
Little by little, the foggy darkness faded before my eyes.
The candlelight jumping on the walls on both sides reflected a dim halo of light, and the shadows cast on the wall flickered long and short, flickering left and right, like demons with teeth and claws. The planks under his feet were clearly old, and they squeaked and made a tooth-aching sound when they stepped on them.
On the left wall in front of him hung a wooden picture frame half a meter square, which was hidden in the candlelight and shadows. It was close at the moment, and Will could see the contents clearly.
This is a pastoral landscape painting, with distant mountains and near water, and in the center of the picture is a slightly raised hill, and a vague figure with an unclear gender is looking forward to this place on the mountain.
The painting technique is quite good, but I don't know what the painter thinks, the whole painting is only black and white, and Shengsheng turns a beautiful pastoral scene into a ghost painting with a hint of ghostly energy.
Will shook his head, focusing his attention on the plank beneath his feet again.
As he walked, the creaking sound accompanied him, making it almost impossible for him to concentrate on what was going on around him. And when he stopped to listen to the movement around him, the creaking sound of wooden planks came from behind him.
"You little ......," Will couldn't help but turn back and reproach, but the sight shocked him.
Several companions did follow, but ...... They were all pale, their faces were distorted, and two lines of blood and tears were slowly flowing from their eyes.
"What's wrong with you?" asked Will, his voice trembling.
Several of his companions had hideous smiles on their faces, and their claws were as sharp as those of a drowned corpse, and they gathered around him with a scream.
Will was so frightened that he took a few steps back, and finally couldn't bear the fear in his heart and turned around and ran quickly.
Crossing the creek and running across the meadows, Will ran out of breath and finally stopped out of breath after climbing a small hill.
Now you're finally getting rid of those terrible monsters, right?
With a hint of trepidation, Will looked back and noticed that something was wrong around him.
This...... It doesn't seem to be the gloomy third-floor corridor of the castle, but ......
Looking at the gloomy distant mountains behind him, looking at the gray grass in front of him, and looking at the black river...... In the distance, a wooden frame hovers in the air, seemingly as a window, through which a pale figure can be seen leading Kerr, Warren and others slowly walking through a dim and terrifying corridor.
Judging by his position and angle, Will was horrified to find that he seemed to ...... I was in the middle of the portrait I had just seen. And his original position has been replaced by the figure in the portrait!
Damn, is this illusion or reality?
For a moment, Will couldn't tell if he had been attacked by illusion or if he had really been introduced into the portrait. So he ran frantically towards the wooden-framed window, waving his hands and shouting loudly.
However, the strange thing was that no matter how much he shouted and ran, the wooden-framed window was always so far away from him that it seemed that he would never reach it......
…………
Inside the gloomy corridor.
Kerr couldn't help frowning and said, "Will, can you go faster." How long will it take us to check the entire floor?"
Will replied vaguely, and finally quickened his pace.
The corridor was not long, and soon several people came to a wooden door.
Everyone took a closer look at it, but they didn't feel any traces of witchcraft fluctuations on the wooden door, and there should be no witchcraft traps or anything like that.
At the signal of the crowd, Will dared to gently push open the wooden door.
There was a soft creak, and the wooden door opened.
Inside is a small, beautifully furnished library, with little space, but the wooden shelves against the wall are densely packed with books and volumes. Many of these books still have a faint fluorescence on them, and they are not ordinary at first glance.
Books, lots of books......
A few apprentices who have taken it as an instinct to gather knowledge want to push others into the house and look for some books that interest them. But at this moment, behind them, Alice's slightly childish cough came over.
Several people stiffened, hurriedly moved to the side, bowed down and saluted: "Lord Alice, please first!"
Alice took a step forward and sneered: "Before dividing up the spoils, you better see it clearly!"
As her delicate little hand lifted slightly, a soft white light of the True Vision Gem in her palm cast into the library inside the door...... And the intermediate apprentice Will who leaned on the side of the door!
The picture that was normal in the last second took a sharp turn in the next second, and what caught everyone's eyes was a picture that made people feel extremely terrifying.
The wooden door had disappeared, and in front of everyone was a strange black crack in the wall, and the end of the black crack led to a portrait hanging on the wall. The figure in the portrait is shaking, and several strange black shadows are sneakily looking this way.
And Will, who was originally standing by the side of the door, also turned pale under the white light, and his skin seemed to be translucent, giving people a terrifying look of ghosts.
"I've opened the door, you guys come in!" Will turned his head, smiling and urging the group.
His face was as pale as if he had been smeared with a thick layer of stone powder, and two red blood and tears were clearly visible. And with his grim smile, the muscles on his face twisted and hideous, full of the appearance of an otherworldly demon.
Damn, when has Will been dropped!
In the next second, I couldn't help but say, three witchcraft of different colors smashed into "Will".
Shadow Arrow!
Ice Dagger!
Electric Claw!
The energy intensity is between 12 and 15 degrees, although the strength is not high, but the attack is still fast. Although the fake Will realized that something was wrong, he had no time to dodge, and was hit by the rapid sorcery of the three apprentices.
The white bone shield that had been haunting Will's body was as if it didn't exist at all, and it was directly pierced by sorcery. Fake Will was screamed by the three witchcraft, and the voice he made was hoarse and cold, not at all like a human voice. And there was no trace of flesh and blood in the fragments of his body that were scattered and scattered, but slowly dissolved into the air like an energy substance.
Fake Will was exposed, and the appearance of his body changed suddenly, and his entire body instantly turned into a transparent energy substance, silently blending into the wall on his side.
The second round of attacks by the three wizard apprentices failed, leaving only a large hole in the wooden wall, revealing a completely dark space inside.
A cold air flow blew out from inside, and several people in front of it couldn't help but shiver.
"Damn, it's a spirit!" Senior Apprentice Warren cursed angrily, "We didn't attack enough just now to really hurt it." Everyone should be ...... later."
Before he finished speaking, fluorescent flickering on the nearby wall, and a transparent humanoid phantom emerged from it, and its sharp claws slashed across Warren's left arm.
"Ah......h
Warren screamed in pain.
Two bolts of sorcery shot out, but unfortunately only the sawdust that had been struck by the old wall flew away, and the spirit had long since lost sight of where to hide.
Warren endured the pain and tore off the torn sleeve of his shirt, and saw several terrifying claw marks on the side of his left arm, which were deep and bone-deep. The rolled wound had turned blue-black, and a layer of crystal frost completely froze the flesh near the wound, and it was still spreading to the upper and lower ends.
"Damn, it's a quasi-witch spirit, everyone should be careful!" Warren shouted hoarsely.
