Chapter 203: News of Princess Helen
In the black air where the dead air precipitated, a whirlpool suddenly twisted, and countless souls erupted from the whirlpool, becoming a forbidden place that the underworld could never be freed from.
This is the gate of hell, which has no fixed form, and can appear anywhere in the underworld at any time, opening a passage that only allows entry but not exit, and ingesting the soul of death into the underworld.
Kratos has seen the gates of hell open three times, but this time the souls ingested are extremely turbulent, thousands and filled with negative emotions such as despair, fear, resentment, etc., and powerful soul fluctuations spread far into the depths.
Woowoo......
A rotting fleshy, ragged bird-headed monster emerged from the tumbling air, and the sound of a revenant's whimper came from its throat.
The carrion-fleshed bird-headed monster had a blue soul fire burning in its eyes, and its beak opened, and a large number of revenants were devoured without the ability to resist.
Feeling the exuberant resentment of these revenants, the rotting flesh bird-headed monster let out a sharper whimper, and its wings stretched directly at the gate of hell.
As more and more souls were devoured, the soul fire in the eyes of the carrion bird-headed monster became more and more vigorous, and the blue gradually shifted, with a hint of green light.
At this moment, there was a sharp whistling sound in the air, and the rotting flesh bird-headed monster was devouring the souls of the dead, being pierced directly without warning, the Spartan war spear was inserted into the abdomen from the bottom up, and large pieces of rotten flesh that were stiff and stenched fell from the sky.
Kratos stepped on his winged boots and used the power of the griffin beast's soul, and the whole person soared into the sky like a bird, and appeared under the monster in the blink of an eye, grabbed the handle of the Spartan war spear left outside, and stabbed it with a sharp force.
Woooooo
The carrion-headed monster let out a terrible whimper, and its sharp beak fell, shooting out like an arrow, leaving a shallow trail on the armor of the Calamity.
The body of the carrion bird's head monster is extremely weird, the bones and flesh can be stretched and contracted at will, the slender neck suddenly grows, and the sharp beak connected to it is like a spring, which catapults continuously, and it pecks at Kratos hundreds of times in the blink of an eye.
The sonorous sound of metal colliding was endless, and the armor of the calamity was left with hundreds of dense dents, if it were not for the protection of the armor, even how strong the body was, it would have been pierced through countless holes in an instant.
Mysterious runes appeared on the surface of the armor, and after the strange light flowed, the dense depressions were instantly smoothed out, and the cold and merciless cold air was emanated, and there was no physical trauma at all.
Kratos's face hidden under the helmet was expressionless, he stood in the void as if he was on the ground, one hand suddenly stretched out and grabbed the sharp beak of the bird, no matter how long and twisted the neck did not waver, and the other hand pulled out the Spartan war spear, only to see a cold light flicker, and the slender neck was cut off in the middle.
The fluttering ragged wings came to an abrupt halt, and the stenching body lost its strength and fell, weathering and collapsing at a rapid speed in mid-air, forming countless powders that dissipated in the thick of dead air.
The body of the undead is just a container, painless, and can be discarded at any time.
The remaining bird's head suddenly erupted with great force, as if it was about to break free from Kratos's grasp. At the same time, the blue and green soul fire continued to shrink violently, and the broken part of the neck began to gather dead qi, and the naked eye could see that the rotten body was condensed little by little.
If it is a low-level monster, its body will be completely destroyed, and only the head will remain, and it will not be able to reunite its body with the help of the infinite death qi of the underworld.
This carrion bird-headed monster was already on the verge of transformation, and after devouring a large number of resentful souls just now, it finally made a breakthrough, and as long as the soul fire was not extinguished, it was able to recondense its rotten body.
In the underworld, such as the revenant souls and skeletons, they are the lowest level of undead creatures, they have no autonomous consciousness, only a never-satisfying thirst for flesh and soul.
After wandering the underworld for countless years and absorbing enough dead energy, a metamorphosis may occur, and the gray soul fire will be born into a few colors and gain some special powers.
Gray, blue, green, red...... This is the power of the soul fire, the skeleton king that has been seen before, the eyes burning in the sockets are a piercing crimson red, standing on the top of the undead.
If the soul fire of this carrion bird-headed monster completely transforms into green, it is equivalent to a dominant-level existence, and the true immortal body, no matter how the body is destroyed, can also be reorganized in an instant.
Suddenly, the body growing at the fracture came to an abrupt halt, as if the follow-up was weak, and part of the body began to gradually collapse.
Kratos is like a black hole, endless dead air is constantly pouring towards him, and a vacuum is formed around the rotting flesh bird's head monster, no matter how the soul fire beats, it can never be compensated for by a trace of dead air.
After smashing his head with a punch and devouring all the monster's soul fire, Kratos did not stop, and began to scavenge the influx of souls in the air, and the lines on the surface of the Bad Armor resurfaced, echoing the cursed tattoos on his body, exuding a faint evil aura.
The soul of the carrion bird-headed monster has undergone a metamorphosis, and the quality of the soul fire is thousands of times better than that of ordinary undead creatures, coupled with so many revenant souls, the illusion of the pyramid in the depths of the soul is much clearer.
When the fragment that carved the eye entered the soul, countless tentacle-like lines stretched out, rooted in Kratos's soul, and esoteric and obscure fragments continued to emerge.
Contrary to Maklov's guess, the Pyramid Phantom did not erase Kratos' consciousness, but stayed quietly in the depths of his soul, and little by little it exuded a mysterious power, nourished by this power, Kratos could even feel the continuous growth of his soul.
Around the phantom of the pyramid, the phantom of Solomon's Key floats, which comes from ancient texts, also seems to have some kind of mysterious connection with the pyramid.
As more souls were devoured, the illusion of the pyramid became clearer, and Kratos had a strong premonition in his heart that this pyramid was of vital importance to him, and what he had to do now was to recondense the pyramid at all costs.
After the power of the soul fire was disintegrated and absorbed, some scattered memory fragments poured out of it. This place not only contains some memories of the undead before its death, but also includes a part of it devoured, which has also accumulated and precipitated together.
A blurry image flashed, and Kratos' steps suddenly stopped, and he stood motionless.
Maklov was also surprised to see Kratos's strange behavior, he thought that the pyramid phantom suddenly absorbed a large number of revenant souls and then underwent a mutation, and the soul magic power containing a trace of law power began to brew, as long as he was not the slightest bit unhesitating, he would not hesitate to use thunder methods.
Kratos looked up suddenly, and although his face was cut off by the helmet, he could sense his fluctuating emotions in his twinkling eyes.
The power of the soul fluctuated, and a blurry picture unfolded in front of Maklov. This ability to materialize memories is miraculous in the mortal world, but it can be easily done in the underworld, among powerful souls.
After seeing this picture, Maklov couldn't help but be stunned, and his youthful face became gloomy, and he was silent for a long time before he finally spoke, but his voice was a little hoarse.
"I owe Thebae...... Now that I know it, I won't be indifferent. ”
Kratos turned, and the stopped step was taken again, and it was heavier...... At the same time, a cold sentence was left.
"I won't let my incompetence repeat itself a second time!"
The area of the underworld is boundless, and legend has it that in order to divide the underworld into various parts, the Hades used rivers of fire to run through the entire underworld continent.
In Lamia's environment, Kratos had seen the illusory river of fire, but compared to the real river of fire in front of him, it was simply the difference between a stream and the sea.
The so-called river of fire is not made of molten flames, but hot blood, which can pollute and corrode everything, and legend has it that even if the gods fall into it, the divinity will be polluted and degenerate into an evil existence.
Among the countless tributaries of the River of Fire, there is one place that is notorious even in the underworld, and that is the Bloody Falls.
Legend has it that it condensed the filthiest essence of the river of fire, and the bones covered the riverbed, causing the blood to overflow and erode the entire land.
In the memory of the carrion-fleshed bird-headed monster that roamed the bloody waterfall, Kratos actually saw an unexpected figure, Princess Helen's gentle and beautiful face, even the darkness of the underworld could not hide it.
Princess Helen's soul is as pure as a perfect gem, exuding a sweet scent that drives all the undead crazy. And what is even more amazing is that her purity is not only not polluted by the dead breath of the underworld, but is more and more dazzling, as if she wants to become a rising sun and sweep away the darkness of the underworld.
The entire area around the Bloody Waterfall is simply a sea of bones, endless, the bones of various creatures are piled up into mountains, and the vicious death qi in the air is several times stronger than that of the three Tutan, and as soon as ordinary revenants enter here, they will be polluted into evil spirits in an instant.
Feeling a strong soul breath, the skeletons covered the ground suddenly changed, and a skeleton undead creature made of various bones crawled up, and there was no soul fire in the empty eye sockets, but it exuded the fluctuation of evil spells.
This is the power of Hekata, the goddess of witchcraft, capable of casting evil spells and cobbling together powerful skeletons that are not even undead, but only puppets driven by witchcraft.
The huge bloody waterfall, only these soulless skeleton guards, without the existence of any undead creatures...... For those who dare to enter here are devoured by powerful beings, leaving only pale bones and bewitched by witchcraft.
