Chapter 352: The Ancient Path
The swampy land beneath Skeletron's feet has become very slippery. Originally, Skeletron was a huge undead with a large body, and his body coordination was not very strong, and coupled with the influence of environmental factors, it became even more unbearable.
When Skeletron fell and got up, repeating it twice, the team sent by the Holy See had completely escaped and stepped into the unknown tunnel of discovery.
Although the tunnel was dim, it was nothing to the group. Their physical strength was strong enough for them to detect movement from ten meters away in this dark environment.
What's more, Jamie, the guy who casts the Holy Presence, is simply a humanoid light bulb with the blessing of the Holy Spirit's phantom. It can be said that the tunnel is centered on Jamie, and they can see the environment within five meters clearly.
"Werther, you and Vu have really found a good place. Not only is this place not damn demonic fog, but it's not as greasy as the outside world. ”
Jamie didn't like the environment in the mist. Compared to this one, the previous environment was simply terrible. Although the air here is just as bad and smells musty, it is much better than before.
Now, they are out of danger and have relaxed temporarily. However, Jamie still asked Werther with some concerns, "Werther, can this place block the mark brought by the magic fog?" If we can't, we'll be stuck in this two-end passage, and we'll be unlucky! ”
As for Jamie's concerns, Witt was equally worried. After all, Jamie is right, this environment is indeed not conducive to the retreat and transfer of the team. However, Witt also couldn't hit his teammates after a fierce battle.
"No matter what kind of mark is given to us in the demonic mist, it is nothing more than breath. As long as we cross the thin magic film outside the body, it shouldn't be a problem to isolate those markers! Besides, there is no magic mist in our location at all, so we are not afraid of new marks being contaminated with the magic film. ”
Werther's words made Jamie clap his hands and suddenly say, "Yes! At least they won't be hunted down by the undead at the top of the tunnel. ”
Seeing the smiles on Jamie and Fu's faces again, although Witt also had a smile on his face, he sighed helplessly in his heart. Jamie was right, the dangers out there would never come to them because of the markers. However, this does not mean that there are no hazards in the tunnel.
Although there are a few traces of man-made repairs in the tunnel here, judging from the surrounding environment, this tunnel should not have been visited for a long time. Although this environment has eliminated the fear of being plotted in Werther's heart, no trace of use for a long time means that there may be danger here.
Don't think there's nothing dangerous about this kind of abandoned passageway. Generally, if it has not been used for a long time, in addition to the possibility of a large amount of miasma and musty smell, there is a high possibility of being entrenched by wild animals. After all, cobwebs can appear in the corners of a house that has not been cleaned up for a month, not to mention such a passage that has been abandoned for a long time?
Unconsciously, Werther, who had been in a hurry, was pushed by Jamie and asked with concern, "Werther, what do you want?" It's so distracted, I don't look good at your face! ”
"It's thinking about something inconsequential, and my face is not very good because of the influence of the air here! I'm not a genius of demonic and martial arts cultivation like you, my body is too weak compared to you! ”
Witt didn't want to tell Jamie about his worries, and that would do no good except for one more person to have concerns. Besides, he is the brainchild of the team, and he has enough pride. Therefore, it is enough for him to have a headache in this matter.
Although Jamie has a straight temperament, he is not stupid. After all, a fool wouldn't cultivate to this extent. However, the clever Jamie didn't break it. Although he didn't know why Werther prevaricated him, he could sense that Werther had no ill intentions.
Seeing that Jamie didn't ask, Witt quietly breathed a sigh of relief. After thinking about it, Witt felt that he still had to remind Jamie. If you are caught off guard by an unknown danger, there will be no place to cry when the time comes.
"Jamie, this place isn't as dangerous as it is up there. However, after all, no one has been to this place for a long time. The vigilance that should be there must be maintained! ”
Because Werther said this in a rather casual tone, Jamie didn't realize that Werther was worried about it. With a soft 'oh', Jamie put away his previous nonchalance and replied to the vigilance he should have had when he first arrived in the Valley of the Buried Dragons.
After seeing Jamie's attention, Werther focused his attention on the passage, trying to determine whether there was danger through the surrounding environment and smells.
As the group continued to move forward, behind the gradually disappearing light, transparent ghosts appeared through the walls, and illusory bodies appeared in the tunnel. With hateful faces and hostile eyes, they all seemed to be not as calm as before.
The main reason why there are no traces of small spiders, rats and other creatures in the tunnel is that a large part of this tunnel is also occupied by the undead. And it is occupied by the most special soul class of the undead, ghosts and resentful spirits full of hatred for the living.
The reason why these ghosts didn't immediately take action against the Holy See team was that they knew that they couldn't keep this team, and they might even be killed by the other party. The second is that the guy in front is not easy to mess with, and when the team arrives at that guy's territory, maybe they can pick up the cheap after them.
"Strange, I had a feeling of being watched just now? Is it incomplete that the mark is not isolated? ”
Jamie, who acted as a lighting tool at the front of the team, immediately caught Witt's attention.
After carefully examining the magic film covering his body, and finding that there was no problem, Werther asked a little solemnly, "Jamie, are you sure you feel this way?" ”
"It's fleeting, but I'm sure it's not an illusion!"
Jamie's words made Werther's expression solemn. Not only that, but Witt also advised: "Jamie, your instincts are rarely wrong, and since that's the case, we should slow down and be vigilant." This kind of unknown prying eyes, if you can't find out why, is always unsettling. ”
Jamie hesitated for a moment, but agreed with Werther's proposal. He sensed that something was wrong in the passage, and he couldn't say what was wrong. However, this uncomfortable feeling is indeed there!
"It's good to trim up, after all, we haven't had a good rest since we got out of the battle!"
Not only is it a direct warning, but also the mental state and physical strength of the team members also make Jamie feel that it is better to adjust. If there is really any danger, the partners who are not in good shape do not know how much combat effectiveness they can exert.
You must know that the narrow terrain of this ancient tunnel is not conducive to squad combat, and it does not even support large-scale magic!
