Chapter 58: Ghost Path
Rewind the clock to half an hour ago. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Led by Irene, the adventure party enters the "Ghost Path".
It's an intricate system of underground passages, connected together to form a labyrinth of ant burrows.
When ordinary people get here, they can't tell which way to go, and whether to go left or right at a fork in the road.
Erin, however, seemed to be familiar with the road, without the slightest pause, and led the adventure team to turn left and right, as if she had already determined the direction.
"Sister Irene, what is your relationship with that necromancer Andrew? Why do you seem familiar with this place? Have you used to come here a lot? Annabelle had big beautiful eyes and a curious baby look.
She is a happy porcelain doll, and nothing can make her sad and sad for more than ten minutes. Even if Brand was seriously injured and dying, even if she came to such a terrifying underground labyrinth, she still had a smile on her face.
A smile is a power that drives away heaviness and sadness and makes people feel light.
Erin replied softly as she discerned her direction, "Annabelle, Andrew and I used to be teammates in the same adventure team, and we separated two years ago because of something. ”
Annabelle blinked and asked curiously, "But Andrew is a necromancer!" It's an evil man! How could Sister Erin be teammates with him? ”
Erin said softly, "Annabelle, necromancers are not all evil, just like the Church of Light will also have murderous maniacs. Although Andrew is a necromancer, he has never killed a living person...... Otherwise, after so many years, he would not still be so weak. ”
Annabelle nodded as if she didn't understand.
She's about to turn fourteen, not too young.
It's just that she has been living in the City Lord's Mansion, and she doesn't know how cruel this world is.
Good and evil are not written on the face, and good and bad cannot be distinguished by occupation alone.
Ghosts wander through the passages.
This underground labyrinth, known as the "Ghost Path", is often filled with ghosts and ghosts wandering around.
These are the weakest ghosts and ghosts, and all of them are below level 5, but there are a lot of them.
In just ten minutes, they saw five ghosts and a dozen ghosts.
Annabelle was terrified!
Willy's face was not very good-looking.
In fact, even Hank and Barton felt cold all over.
"Sister Irene, what the hell is this place? How can there be so many undead? It's scary, it's scary! Annabelle's small hand tugged at the corner of Irene's coat, and in the other hand she held an aquamarine staff.
The palms of his hands were covered with cold sweat.
Erin said softly: "This is a strange underground labyrinth, it seems that it is not naturally formed, but it is thought that it was built, and it should be hundreds of years old. When I was adventuring with Andrew and Leshardt, I stumbled upon this place, and I entered it with a moment of curiosity, and I almost got trapped inside and didn't get out. ”
Annabelle let out an "ah", and then asked curiously, "Then Sister Irene, how did you come out?" Did you encounter anything inside? Are they all ghosts and ghosts? ”
Irene's face changed, and there seemed to be a hint of fear in her eyes, but she hid it well and didn't let Annabelle find out.
Erin said softly: "It's nothing, it's just that the maze is too complicated, we got lost, and it was not easy to get out." Then we got ready, and we went in several times, and found several paths, one of which led to the vicinity of the crevice in the ground. ”
The two walked as they talked.
Perhaps because of the distraction, they felt a little less fearful in their hearts.
Keep going.
The labyrinth was pitch black, and they were lit with special magic lights.
This magic lamp burns a special fuel, and even requires a little arcane energy to ignite, and a little fuel can burn for a long time, and the light is very bright.
At each fork in the maze, Erin would look at the signs above and determine where to go down.
Suddenly, a gloomy wind blew.
The lights are out!
"Ahh
Annabelle let out an exclamation.
"Don't be nervous, pay attention to defense. Annabelle, with light. Erin's voice was very calm.
Annabelle hurriedly recited the incantation, and the aquamarine at the top of the staff shone brightly, illuminating everything around her.
"Check the magic lamp, is it running out of fuel?" Erin walked over.
She picked up the magic lamp from Annabelle's hand and examined it closely.
There's a lot of fuel left.
Erin had a bad feeling in her heart.
Erin...... Sister Erin, just now, just now I felt as if someone was blowing on my neck. Then, and then the lights went out. Isn't death a ghost or something? Isn't this a ghost road? We've only seen ghosts and ghosts just now, but haven't we seen ghosts yet? ”
Annabelle pulled the corner of Irene's coat, a little uneasy.
"Don't be nervous. Maybe there's something wrong with the magic lamp, but it's also possible. There's a lot of wind here, and it's normal for it to blow on your neck, so don't think about it. Erin whispered comfortingly.
No one noticed that her face had turned a little pale.
Suddenly, Willy's trembling voice rang out.
"Ai ...... Sister Irene, those two ...... Those two guys are gone! ”
Erin looked up suddenly.
Following Willy's finger, she saw that there was no one in front of her, and Hank and Barton, who were supposed to be there, had disappeared.
How is this possible!
"Jean, is your rope tight?" Erin asked in a low voice.
"Bundle it tight, Sister Irene. I also felt a chill just now, I'm afraid we really ran into something. ”
The voice of the stalker came out, but he was nowhere to be seen.
He hides in the shadows.
"How...... What should I do? It's scary here! And, and those two guys are gone, what about Brand? What are we going to trade with that skeleton mage? Are we going to die here? Willie's voice was sobbing.
In fact, he was literally going to cry.
"Don't panic."
Erin's hands trembled slightly, but her voice remained as calm as possible.
She grasped the bow in one hand, but with the other she felt something from her body and held it tightly.
"Come with me, let's get out of here."
"Don't worry, I've walked this road many times, and I'll definitely be able to take you out."
"Once we're out, we're going to attack the Skeleton Mage, restrain him, and force him to heal Brand."
"If he doesn't want to, I'll tear it down one by one until he says yes!"
"Don't worry, I promised the city lord to bring you all back safely. I will do what I promised! ”
