Now a few people in Acoste don't care that they will be discovered by something, a few people fled all the way without their lives, rushing into the abandoned White Castle, which was not half the distance in dozens of minutes, and now they arrived at their destination in less than a minute......
They were within reach of the White Castle before they bent down and took two breaths, then leaned their knees and turned their heads to look behind them......
Comfortingly, the creature that seemed to be a Titan didn't catch up, it seemed to be made of mist, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"Oops!" Acoste patted his thigh as if he thought of something, they might have been caught in some illusion and were driven in like dogs......
The reason is very simple, the half-elven sword saints in front of them saw the steps of the giant creature, but they didn't feel the movement of the other party's feet on the ground......
According to conservative estimates, a guy of more than 40 meters should weigh dozens of tons......
This kind of guy doesn't say that the sky is falling apart when he walks, but every step always causes the ground to shake slightly like an earthquake......
The half-elf didn't feel that feeling in front of him, nor did he feel the feeling of being oppressed by the abyss on top of the stone giant.
A few of them just glanced at each other, and then fled like frightened birds.
Could it be that there is some hidden believer in Lady Lyra? But it's not right, Lyra, who is in charge of the two priesthoods of Phantom and Mist, is not a god of the evil camp, and she has never had any contact with her church. Not to mention the feud, why would they attack a few of their own people?
And if it's really an illusion unleashed by the Lady of the Mist believers. Then the giant phantom must be more real than what I saw before, after all, this is the housekeeping skill of other gods.
But except for the goddess. Who else has such power?
The answer was soon revealed with a rustling sound......
Right under their noses, a strange sound of movement came, and then they saw a pair of dry palms with only skeletons left, sticking out from under the dirt!
"Everyone be careful...... "Half-elf Sword Saint Teng pulled out his weapon suddenly, he roughly listened to the movement in front, these rustling sounds are very dense and widely distributed, it seems that there are a lot of undead creatures underground!
A few seconds later, a skeleton with a faint fire of the undead at the skull appeared in front of the Scarlet Frostflame Adventure Team......
He was dressed in a tattered sailor's suit. Carrying a rusty iron axe in his hand, he walked towards Acoste and them.
"Ding!" With a crisp sound, the Oriental Dancing Girl stepped forward with a wrong step, the light of the stars and the light of the morning light brought two cold lights, and the skull of the skeleton sailor suddenly turned into four neat pieces like a piece of soft tofu......
"No problem, they only have the strength of ordinary people." Ling turned her head to Acoste and nodded......
However, the face of the half-elf sword saint did not improve in the slightest with the words of the Dongfang Dancing Girl.
More and more skeleton soldiers dressed in sailor costumes gathered, mixed with many black skeletons dressed in adventurer's costumes......
Acoste finally knew where the crew members who had disappeared in the Moon Sea for the past few months had gone......
"Run to the castle, quick!" The half-elf sword master made a quick decision. The first one danced his two transcendent weapons and slashed backwards, and the others reacted quickly, following Acoste's back in the direction of the castle's interior.
Thankfully. The skeletons of the missing crew seemed to have been buried in large numbers, while the number of skeletons inside the White Fort was pitiful, and Acoste encountered little resistance under their all-out breakthrough. Easily broke into the building hall of the White Castle, and the half-elf sword saint was waiting next to the gate. When everyone had arrived, he slammed the heavy door shut.
"What do we do now? Do you want to use teleportation to inform Lavis and get everyone else to come over? The little druid asked with a gasping breath, as a spellcaster, her own physique was not high. Now as Acoste and the others scurried twice, Doris's cheeks flushed unnaturally.
"Forget it, there are too many skeletons around outside, and I guess we won't be able to open a passage if we attack on both sides together." The half-elf swordmaster immediately shook his head and vetoed when he heard Doris's suggestion, joking, he wouldn't let Lavis come over in such a dangerous place.
"I feel like the people in the White Castle already know about my arrival, so let's see what's going on here!"
This is not something that Acoste himself feels, almost anyone with a little brain can see that whether it is those Titan phantoms or the sea-like skeletons outside the door, they seem to be sealing their own retreat and desperately driving themselves into the White Castle, so if you think about it along this line, there must be something waiting for them inside the White Castle......
"Let's go after a rest. Doris, you can always hang the two spells of Detection Secret Door and Detection Trap to yourself. Acoste sat cross-legged on the ground for a moment, then pulled out the Frostmourn and Ash Briele that had been stuck in the ground in front of him, and took the lead in the direction of the stairs.
"Hmph, I'm not a child, I know it without you being verbose!" It may be that Acoste rejected her proposal earlier, and the expression on the little druid's face was a little unpleasant, but she only muttered in a low voice, but her body began to cast spells very honestly.
Acoste and they followed the spiral staircase to the second floor......
The facilities here are too dilapidated, when a few people in front of Acoste walked the stairs, Ling almost fell to the first floor because he stepped on a section of stairs, if it weren't for the fast reaction of Mavi behind Dongfang Wuji, his own reaction would not be slow, and now everyone had to brave the fog to run back to the first floor to find Ling......
The half-elf swordmaster was thinking quickly in his brain as he walked......
The White Fort looks dilapidated from the inside and outside, and it seems that no living person would choose this place as their stronghold......
Coupled with the dense fog encountered in front of you, the song of the dead suddenly sounded, a huge phantom, and a huge number of skeleton soldiers......
Acoste seems to know something about what occupies the interior of the White Castle............
