Chapter 6: The Apparition's Guide
·
Just as Yuan Huang was panicking due to the sound of the alarm, there was a half-human-tall metal pedestal with a simple shape in the corner at the end of the passage, and some light green phantoms suddenly appeared above it.
The translucent floating, the shape is comparable to a child's stick figure, which makes people see through it at a glance that it is a phantom, and even before the source phoenix was sealed the demon, it can cast a more elaborate illusion than this.
Apparently this crude illusion is not used to deceive people, but to convey some kind of intention.
He took a few steps closer and stared closely.
Arrows to point the way.
Next to the arrow is a very simple figure of a small figure, and the head is a dot.
The villain walked with a limp, and it is not difficult to understand that it represents the source of the knee injury at the moment. It took a few steps back in the direction of the arrow, then turned left, climbed over a pile of obstacles, and stood in ......... Is it a round "wellhead"? The villain jumped and then ...... Sewer? crawling.
When climbing up to the surface again from another well, we came to a hemispherical room. The villain pulls out a ...... from the wall One...... Probably a barrel.
"Oh. You want me to do that, right? ”
Although Yuan Huang asked, he did not get any answer from the angel. It should be hoped that Yuanhuang will go somewhere to get the barrel by such a route, the reason is unknown, but because the alarm is sounding around, it is probably a very urgent situation.
He couldn't understand the next phantom. The villain stuffed the barrel into the round window next to it. The barrel flew out, and then at a great distance from the Celestial Palace......... Forehead? Turned into fireworks?
The barrel turned into fireworks and exploded in the sky, and then the villain representing the source jumped with joy.
All right.
What else can Yuanhuang do besides comply? I haven't thought of how to escape alive, such as today's situation in the Realm Palace. Maybe this isn't an alarm...... Associating fireworks, red lights, and a happy little man may be the Angel Sister's intention to celebrate a ritual that survived a crash from the sky?
He scratched his head.
Then I turned back the way I came, and after a few steps, I saw a fork in the road that was almost blocked by the collapse. Looking at the darkness in front of him, he looked down at the short spear stuck in his knee, and couldn't help but twitch his cheek.
The original section of the similarly constructed passage was blocked by a large number of metal wall panels, sticks, and ropes. There is no light source other than the occasional burst of electric sparks.
Yuan Huang struggled to climb over those horizontal and vertical obstacles, slowly groped his way through the dark passage for about six or seven meters, and finally stood in front of the circular wellhead that was like the one shown in the phantom, and swallowed his saliva.
It was dark all around, but the mouth of the well in front of his feet was steaming hot and fiery red. Words such as "entrance to hell" and "flame dungeon" kept popping into his mind.
Climbing down the mouth of the well about two meters deep, he was greeted by a hot sewer bathed in red light that was blocked by multiple vapors and could not be seen.
There is no water, and the walls are square, so even if so, Yuanhuang speculates that this is a sewer. Only a single person is allowed to climb through the height, and the metal floor is full of dense and slender holes, as if they were specially used for water leakage.
When you lie down, you can feel the metal floor being scorched by the steam when you press your palm against the floor. This place is clearly not built to let people through.
Gritting his teeth and enduring the pain in his knees, Yuanhuang crawled as fast as he could, passing through layers of steam that stinged his skin.
After more than ten meters, he finally climbed up from the mouth of the well at the other end.
As he sat on the edge of the well, gasping for breath, he was stunned by the sight around him, covering the wound that had been widened by the climb up and down.
This is the hemispherical room that the phantom showed just now.
The diameter is not very large, only four or five meters, but the surrounding walls are all made of some kind of holy white metal, and just by looking at it, it must be much more expensive than silver, and it is seamlessly connected. From the top, there are more than a dozen curved metal beams and columns that seem to be used for stability.
This must be a very special room, with a layout that is very different from other places. There were no furniture or clutter, no windows, and only one door, as if someone should have come at an important moment.
There were no more red lights, and the incessant sirens were much quieter, and it took a long time for Yuan Huang to remember that he had been commissioned to fetch the barrel.
Wine barrels.
Cask ......
…… Where are the barrels?
Yuan Huang groped around the surrounding walls with his hand and found no barrels, which were different from the pictures shown. The only thing suspicious was that there was a small gem that shimmered red on the wall, but it couldn't pick it off.
Just when Yuan Huang was at a loss, he suddenly noticed that something was shaking outside the door.
He pressed his face against the wall next to the very thick glass door and looked diagonally outside the door. Outside the door, there was also a half-human-high metal pedestal identical to Fang Cai, and a new apparition was floating above it at the moment. That was the new instruction to the source phoenix.
"Hmm. Uh-huh......"
He looked at it and nodded to himself in understanding, then got up. According to the apparition diagram, he looked at the red-glowing ...... Target...... I don't know if it's a gem or a crystal or something, and I pressed it.
Suddenly, a metal cylinder slowly protruded from the otherwise flat wall, and some cold white mist emerged from the cracks.
That's obviously what you're looking for. None of the barrels were cylindrical and made of metal, but he really didn't know what they were.
Let's take it. In addition to having no choice, Yuan Huang also hugged the cylinder into his arms because of curiosity. The size that can be easily held by both hands, but it is heavy. He moved to the side, found another gem on the wall and pressed it.
Eject a two-lever wrench.
Lift it up with all your might.
A round window pops up next to the wrench.
As it should be, this window is also strange. The metal sash opens in a polygonal spiral shape. It seems to have been built in a wall up to two meters thick, with another glass window at the end of a transverse pipe with a cylindrical diameter of half a meter. I've never heard of anyone's windows like this.
He picked up the cylinder and stuffed it into the narrow pipe of the window.
The window on his side slammed shut with heavy glass, almost catching his hand! It seemed to be in a hurry to close it, which startled him.
Then it should ...... Well.
He pressed the gem again.
Touch!
With a muffled sound like the cork of a wine being uncorked, the cylinder flew out like a catapult.
The lights around Yuanhuang, and maybe even the entire Heavenly Realm Palace, were all extinguished at once, and they returned to pitch black, and it was very silent, and there seemed to be a faint low roar on the inside of the metal wall before, but now it was completely dumb.
Strange things happened again and again, and Yuan Huang didn't understand what was going on at all. He didn't understand who asked him to do it for what purpose, and it ended up leaving him in a pitch black silence, unable to even see where the wellhead was.
What the hell is going on?
Thinking so, he kept staring out the window. Because outside the window is a forest with a clear sky, and it is the only light at the moment.
He kept staring at the inconspicuous little cylinder flying into the distant sky.
Fly, fly, it's pretty fast.
…… Hey?
"Isn't that a boulder!"
Yuan Huang immediately looked at the window. Due to the distance, he discovered that there was a huge rock in the forest that was higher than the canopy of the forest sea, and the direction in which the small cylinder flew was the same as the position of the prophet and his party!
"Grass fucking! Better smash that bastard! Thinking of the hardness and weight of the small cylinder, Yuan Huang couldn't help but blurt out and scold.
However, to his disappointment, the small cylinder flew too hard, and it was close to the top of their heads without the slightest intention of falling, and it seemed that the landing point was far away.
…… Won't you stone that old bastard?
Yuan Huang sighed regretfully.
Then the small cylinder exploded, just above the heads of the Prophet and his party.
