41- What the hell did I trigger
Curiosity kills cats, but not all cats have nine lives.
"Hiss~ Ollie, I'm awake, do you want to bite my hand off?" Will grinned in pain as he twisted his hands.
Just now, Ollie saw the state of Wiel and sensed that something was wrong, and he tried to get the stick that had made it suddenly uncomfortable out of Veil's hand. But Wiel's right hand was clenched to death.
Ollie tried to rip Will's hand away, but Ollie's small claws didn't have that much strength, and Ollie's face flushed, and both big ears stood up. But it didn't work.
But it was even more unsettling, and a creepy feeling came from nowhere.
Ollie knew it couldn't be delayed any longer, and looked at Vere's right hand, and Ollie took a bite of it, and then Veel came to his senses.
"It's weird, but it gives me an idea of where we are...... Call! ~" Will healed the wound on his hand, carefully picked up the wooden stick on the ground, and looked around again, feeling that the situation just now should not have appeared.
"Ollie, do you find anything else besides this?" Touching Ollie's head, Weir felt that he was in better shape, at least, there was no longer cold sweat on his head, and there was no longer a stinging pain.
[But the big spider I just saw was my hallucination?] Or is it really in the middle of that woodland? 〕
Will's brows furrowed, looking at Ollie in front of him, remembering the spider's eyes just now, "What a terrible feeling...... Is that woodland the same complex I saw there......"
As he spoke, Ollie thought for a moment, then stood up and pointed in the other direction, where there was another gap.
"Nothing else? ...... that direction" swallowed, and Weir realized that the direction that Ollie pointed to was the direction of the spider he had just seen. "Really, disaster doesn't come alone...... Could it be that at the bottom of this road, is the spider's lair? "There are spiders ahead, ghosts in the way. So Wille proposed.
"Ollie, we can look for it again and see if we can activate this portal." Wiel looked around, and found a different stone on one side of the arch, outside the stone henge.
"What's there? Let's go over and see. So saying, the two of them walked there, and Vere found that although there was a lot of rubble and vegetation on the ground, there was actually a rune connection between the strange stone and the stone arch.
It's just that this texture is not only partially covered, but more importantly, the texture itself is a symmetrical but intermittent pattern.
"Looks like a slot here?" When Weel came to the strange stone, there was a stone on the ground that looked like a plate, and in the center of it there was a small round hole. Weel tried to lift the stone from the ground, but the stone seemed to be one with the mountain.
"What is it?" Ver stabbed the stone with the stick in his hand, and suddenly in a flash of inspiration, he stuck the stick in his hand into the hole.
Just right. And then......
I can't pull it out.
"Hey~!" Wiel and Au's pulls out with force, but to no avail.
"Could it be that this thing is a switch?" Will wrenched his chin and thought carefully, "Let's see if I can push it." Wille grabbed the end of the stick and tried to push it around.
"It really pushes ...... Is that! With a click, the vertical lines on the stone plate lit up, and the light that Veel was looking for gradually brightened along the lines on the ground, and those lights seemed to have power, and with the light of the runes, the stones and plants covering the ground were blasted apart and scattered to both sides.
It extends all the way to the stone gate in the center.
As the stone door lit up, the runes in Weir's hand lit up again. "Is it activated? Great......" The lines on the stone door quickly lit up one by one, and the white light was like a fire that ignited the lead, igniting the ravine on the stone gatepost.
Soon, all the runes of the stone gate lit up. Although there was no sound at all, there was a sudden silence, as if something was brewing. Suddenly, the whole stone circle shook, and the stones on the ground began to rattle.
Will was unsteady on his feet, and reached to the ground with his ass. At this moment, the stone gate that shone with rune light suddenly spread out a circle of white brilliance, impacting the surrounding stone walls.
Following the lines of the base of the stone gate, the light lit up from the rune lines on the ground and spread out in all directions. This time, however, the light spread very slowly, as the lines on the ground were worn out.
"What's going on?" Wiel's eyes widened as he watched everything in front of him, and this was the first time he had seen such a magical effect in this world.
The lines came to the surroundings of the stone henge, and Wei found that the places where the light path led were all places with dense stone piles, but many of the lines were interrupted halfway, and finally only one line reached the boundary of the stone henge intact.
At the end of the line, a pile of stones floated around it, gathering together with the light, slowly turning into something like a chanting platform. Then the light dimmed slightly, leaving only a bright white light, and the drastic changes subsided.
At this moment, the sensation of Ollie's claws pushing on his back was heard, and Veil turned his head.
"Scrolls?!"
That's right, the scroll with a black spider painted on it that was originally in the backpack by Veil is quietly hovering above the backpack. That is, right now in front of Will's eyes.
Will stood up and grabbed the scroll with his hand, "Do you want me to put this scroll on that table?" Weir swallowed, "This...... Is...... Terrible. I'll try to see if the portal is open. Coming to the stone gate again, Ver walked through the middle, and although the runes of the stone pillars were lit up, no portal opened.
"Looks like I'm going to have to put this scroll on that stone platform." Ver had no choice but to make his way to the stone platform, and Ollie hid behind him, away from the door they were directly averse to. Putting the stick away, he carefully placed the scroll on the stone platform with his other hand.
A vision happened.
The scroll that had been rolled up unfolded and floated flat above the stone platform, the front of which was a smooth stone slab that was so flat that there was not a trace of protrusion.
Dots of light rose from the stone platform, and Wille noticed that the only image on the scroll, the black spider, had reverted to a black streamer as the light shrouded it.
The scroll fell, and Vere caught it and put it back in his backpack. At this moment, the black light rushed to the stone slab, and the image of the black spider reappeared on the stone platform.
Looking at the appearance of the spider on the slate, Weiel's heart chuckled apprehensively, "Yes, what will happen?" Wer was a little nervous, staring at the stone gate in front of him.
The black brilliance flowed backwards towards the stone gate along the lines, and then crawled all over the stone gate, and in the center of the stone gate, a black crack slowly appeared, gradually twisting into a black, constantly circulating black hole.
"Gollum ......" "Woo...... Whoa, whoa"
Weir's eyes widened, looking at the black hole in front of him, and swallowed, and at the edge of the rift, many palm-sized spiders fell out of it, "Oh no, where does this portal lead?!! How can there be spiders crawling out! ”
And the moment Ollie appeared in the crack, the hair on his whole body exploded, and he turned around and ran towards another exit, boom! Ollie slammed into the 'wall' and bounced to the ground. Ollie covered his nose, tears streaming down his cheeks. "Whew!!"
A transparent circle of light enveloped the entire stone formation, and Ao used his small claws to continuously hit the transparent wall of light with his small claws, causing ripples on the wall of light.
"Damn! Stuck here, yes, switch! Seeing that the stone henge was surrounded by a wall of light, Ver hurried back to the place where the stick had been inserted, trying to straighten it, thinking that perhaps this would close the portal......
"! Unexpectedly pulled it off! Wiel grabbed the stick in his hand and noticed that the aura around him had not disappeared. The light in the middle also has no tendency to wane.
Ollie saw the scene, squatting on the ground, holding his head with his two front paws, shaking his head constantly, and tears from his two big eyes flowed down his eyes.
At this moment, a huge black spider monster that Weir had fought twice was trying to squeeze out of the narrow crack, "Withered spider?!" This portal leads to the Spider's Nest! ”
But this sense of danger was soon replaced by greater fear.
I saw a huge claw just piercing through the black crack, inserting the spider in half, and throwing it at the wall of light behind Weel.
On the wall of light, black and white intertwined violently, and the spider turned into pieces under the huge impact, and then turned into a cloud of black smoke, which dissipated at once.
Ollie was startled by the impact, and no longer shook its head, it turned around with its ears pricked up, glanced at the black portal, and then snorted, and fainted to the ground.
But Ver had not noticed any of this, his head was covered with sweat, and if anyone could touch his hand holding the stick, he would find it cold. "I... What the hell did I do! ”
Behind that claw, in the pitch-black crack, the scarlet eyes of a behemoth stared directly at Vere, conveying cold killing intent and greed to Veel.
