362 Curse
That thing is a ball of energy, and I don't know what color it is, but after Roland's spiritual net is entangled, he will have a feeling of nausea and want to vomit, and what is even more outrageous is that this thing seems to be able to suck his spiritual power.
It's slow, but it's really smoking.
So Roland quickly took back his spiritual thread.
"Then it should be the gatekeeper left by the brave grandfather." Cage looked at the rocky beach in front of him: "It seems that it will be very troublesome to clean up these things, and the most feared thing is that when we are about to clean up, the gatekeepers below will launch a surprise attack on us!" ”
Cage's concern is not unfounded.
As a former mercenary, although he hadn't fought for almost a decade, Cage was still alert enough.
He knew exactly what would happen if he was attacked while he was working.
I have suffered losses in this regard.
Just when he was embarrassed, Roland took the initiative to stand up and flicked his fingers.
The rocks in front of me 'melted' into a liquid like ice in the sun, turning into a swamp, and finally a small whirlpool appeared, and the swamp mud began to flow down.
"That's amazing!" Cage sighed in amazement: "Instantaneous large-scale magic, and it is also a second-level magic like fossil mud, at your age, it is already more than the word genius." ”
Andonara seemed to smile happily, and she liked Roland to be praised by others.
Roland smiled modestly.
But then Cage frowned: "These swamps are all trapped in the secret room, what if the three blood vials are buried?" ”
"Rest assured. I've probed my mental power just now, and the secret room is quite large. Roland looked at the whirlpool that began to gurgle and bubble: "Even if this small swamp were poured into it from the entrance, at most it would only be able to spread a layer of mud less than three centimeters high on the floor of the secret room. ”
Cage relaxed a lot when he heard this.
Soon most of the swamp flowed away from the whirlpool, and a dark entrance appeared before the three of them.
Roland snapped his fingers, and the remaining mud turned back into rock.
Cage glanced at Roland again, then shook his head in admiration.
The three of them came together in front of the black hole...... There was originally a stone staircase, but when it was filled with muddy water, it was almost impossible to see the stone steps, only a faintly undulating inclined slide.
Cage and Andonara both looked at Roland.
Roland flicked his fingers again, and the slide, which was made of mud, became a rocky slide.
At this time, a cold aura came from under the cave entrance, and the surrounding air fell at an extremely fast speed, and the breath of the three of them instantly carried white water vapor.
"It's a little chilly." Cage pulled out his long sword, and with a touch of his left hand on the sword, the blue flames immediately filled the sword body, and the cold aura around him immediately became much less. He continued, "I'll go down first, and you'll follow." ”
With that, he jumped straight in.
Because there was still more than half of the time for the levitation technique, Cage was not worried that he would be fallen, and he fell very slowly.
Roland immediately threw three balls of light into the air, and jumped down at the same time.
Andonara immediately followed behind Roland.
The three of them staggered down into the chamber from above, and the three balls of light reached the center of the chamber first.
Under the illumination of the light ball, the three of them could clearly see the entire secret room.
The floor of the chamber is covered with a layer of rock about ten centimeters thick, and the rock layer on the front side of the entrance is particularly thick and uneven.
Roland glanced at Cage at this time, and the latter jumped down directly without the illuminated light ball just now, not afraid at all.
There are only two possibilities, until Cage is actually familiar with this secret room...... But this is unlikely,
Another more likely reason is that Cage has a dark illusion.
Generally, this kind of special ability is mostly found in different races...... For example, kobolds, drow elves, or nocturnal monsters.
There are not many races on the main plane that have dark vision, just six or seven.
But the demons are different, it is said that the world in which the demons live is very dim, and in order to survive, all races in the demon world, 'per capita' dark vision.
Combined with those Demon Realm texts last night, Roland had some special conjectures in his heart.
But the thought only flickered in his mind, and then his attention was immediately drawn to what was in front of him.
In the middle of the chamber there is a large bluestone platform that resembles a sacrificial platform, and above the platform, there is a red copper chest with a white key hanging from the box.
What really caught their attention was the black energy tumbling above the copper box, like a black cloud boiling in front of a summer thunderstorm.
In the middle of the energy cluster, there are two red balls of light, like a pair of eyes, looking at the three of them, they don't move, it seems that there is no wisdom.
Andonara drew her long sword and subconsciously blocked it in front of Roland.
"This is the gatekeeper?" Cage looked left and right, then waved the long sword with blue flames, and said with a smile: "It turns out that dark creatures, our family is born to restrain this thing, no wonder the old ancestor said that this thing is not difficult for us." ”
"But I find it a little difficult." Andonara's red lips pursed, and she said quite uncomfortably: "I am a great swordsman, and I am born with no way to do anything about this kind of disembodied thing. ”
"Then I'll kill it first." Cage was carrying the blue flaming sword and was about to walk forward.
"Wait!" Andonara suddenly called out to him: "Uncle, unless you plan to take the blood of Phoenix home in the future, this thing should continue to stay as a gatekeeper." Otherwise, if someone breaks in at will, it's easy to take the rest of Phoenix's blood. “
Cage stepped out of the foot and retracted it: "You do have a point. “
"So what should I do?" Cage looked at the black energy cluster: "If we don't kill it, we estimate that as soon as we step forward, we will be attacked by it." ”
"Cover your whole body with that blue flame, go over and open the box, and come back?" Roland thought for a moment with the thought of a mage, and said, "Anyway, your family's blue flame restrains this thing, and it shouldn't dare to take the initiative to attack you with the blue talisman flame." ”
Cage looked at Roland with a wordless expression, making the latter a little confused.
"Did I say something wrong?"
Looking at Roland's innocent expression, Cage said depressedly, "We are warriors, not magicians. It is impossible to control the magic with precision like you mages and use it as you please. It took me more than a decade to be able to attach flames to my sword and keep them from burning everywhere...... You let the flames spread all over my body? While it doesn't hurt its owner, it burns all the clothes and hair, and there's no way I'm going to be able to do that delicately. ”
"Then it seems that the only way to do it is to destroy it." Roland spread his hands.
Cage took a step forward with his sword, but at this moment, the two red balls in the energy mass suddenly became very bright, and more than doubled in size, and now changed from the size of an apricot to the size of an apple.
At the same time, a very peculiar voice sounded in the secret room, which was very unpleasant and extremely uncomfortable.
Zilazila's voice is a bit like a fingernail scratching an iron blackboard, which makes your scalp tingle.
Cage subconsciously took a step back and assumed a defensive posture, and Roland immediately summoned two blue shield-wielding magic figures in front of Andonara.
And the iridescent blast magic is ready to be cast in no time.
"The descendants of the Phoenix family, how weak they are."
A sharp voice rang out in the chamber, and all three of them felt extremely uncomfortable in their eardrums.
And there is also a rather strong mental attack that begins to appear.
Cage has the blood of a brave man and has his own 'brave' specialty, and ordinary mental attacks have no effect on him at all.
And Roland's spiritual power is extremely high, and he has a magic shield to protect his whole body, and the spiritual attack he receives is not large, and it has almost no effect.
The only one who has a greater impact on Biro is Andonara, she is a pure warrior, and her natural resistance to spiritual attacks is weaker, but fortunately, the Great Swordsman itself specializes in the defense ability of all magical attacks, and mental attacks are also included, so she is also more resistant to magical attacks than ordinary warriors.
Although she felt very uncomfortable in her head, and always felt a little tingling, she was just like that.
Cage looked at this black energy in surprise: "You actually have the will, doesn't the manuscript say ...... You're just a simple pale soul. ”
"Hehehe!" The voice of the black energy cluster buzzed in the secret room, full of mockery: "I have been here for almost a hundred years, and it is not strange to rebirth my consciousness. ”
Cage's expression is a little ugly, there are self-conscious and unconscious souls, the difference between the strength of the two is huge, the brave bloodline on his body is not too obvious, it is okay to deal with ordinary evil monsters, but it may be a little difficult to deal with this kind of soul that has not dissipated for more than a hundred years, and there is self-consciousness.
Then he looked at Roland, and felt a little relieved, but fortunately a magician followed.
For 'energy' creatures, the caster is the most proficient.
"So, you have your name and past?" Roland had secretly mobilized his magic and was ready to attack.
"Of course." The shape of the black energy mass began to change, expanding, deforming, and finally turning into a giant humanoid monster with two horns in the first place.
At about three meters tall, it looks very formidable.
This shape, Roland felt a little familiar, and he narrowed his eyes slightly.
As for Cage and Andonara, their faces changed drastically and became ugly.
"It seems that you remember me, the descendants of the demon traitors, the descendants of the demon king Phoenix." The giant black horned monster let out a furious laugh: "A poor little man who betrayed his own people and tried to kneel and lick the Terrans. A demon king, who actually gave up the demon world that gave birth to him and raised him, and actually wanted to become a dog in the main plane, is your ancestor, ruining our closest chance to conquer the human world. Phoenix, you will always be cursed by all demons, half of your life will sleep in pain, and your children and grandchildren will always lose their loved ones at the happiest time, I see it...... I see the curse in the two of you growing and screaming, hahahahaha! ”
Upside down, full of malice and schadenfreude laughter, shook the chamber and caused puffs of dust to fall.
Cage and Andonara, on the other hand, turned pale and bloodless.
