On a cursory perception, Charles felt as if he had broken into a ghost's lair.

"These ghosts don't seem to be planning to attack you." Mei Weisi suddenly spoke, "Their spirit is very kind, there are no obsessions, no evil thoughts...... If it's another astral ghost, they've probably swooped over to take your body back to life. ”

"Hmm." Charles agreed, glancing back at the members of the Exploration Party, holding the flail and the second-legendary shield 'Hero's Shield', as he continued to go deeper.

After a corner, the cave in the front section suddenly opened up and brightened, and a tall, heavy metal gate stood in front of it.

Ignoring the metal doors carved with various intricate and mysterious patterns for the time being, the exploration team of everyone, including the live broadcast room, has increased to millions of viewers one after another, and everyone is probably staring at the figures on both sides of the door.

"Living!" The wanderer goblin Mu Fan screamed, and turned to run away, but his brother Mude grabbed the collar of the leather armor.

Goblin scholar Lu Deng's lips trembled, and it took a long time before he said in horror: "...... Siriva, Ronna, you're not dead yet? ”

A bald man and a plump woman stand on either side of the metal door, like guards of the ruins.

The braziers burning on the walls reflected their expressionless faces.

"Mercenaries?" Charles looked at the two of them's outfits, and had already guessed their identities.

A mercenary from the Astral Plane who died here a month ago. A member of the Ludon Exploration Team.

"Siriva! Ronna! Ludon called again, and the cave was empty, and no one answered.

"They're not who they are anymore."

Charles tried to step forward in a deep voice, but the bald man and the plump woman immediately looked sideways, their eyes indifferent. The bald man said in a stereotypical tone: "Please stop, traveler of the material plane!" ”

As he got closer, Charles found that the bald man's head and forehead were covered with a layer of delicate dark green snake scales, and his heart was rolling: "...... Sure enough, it was taken away. ”

The woman was similar, with a layer of crimson scales around her neck, and her body was clearly transforming into a cold-blooded scaly group.

He was not a pastor of Tyre or Loshanda, and he had no obligation or duty to cleanse evil.

Moreover, after Charles threw out a 'Detect Evil' god, the two scaly descendants who had been resurrected did not have the aura of the evil camp coming out of them. That was enough to reassure him.

The goblin scholar swallowed nervously and quietly retreated behind Shire, and said in a trembling voice, "They, taken away by the astral ghosts? ”

"Takeaway?"

The female scaly descendant said coldly, "Their souls have been divided by evil spirits, and we have only picked up the shell of the ownerless. ”

"And what about the evil spirits?" Charles asked, staring at her.

"It's all swept away." The female scaly looked at him more, "Those evil spirits are also our people, but they have not maintained their spiritual purity for a long time, and evil thoughts, desires, and obsessions have gradually grown, and they have become real astral ghosts. ”

"Why are you resurrected?"

"Resurrection? No, we never died. In order to escape the pursuit of evil witches, the master mother made us give up our original body and reside in the astral plane with an incomparably pure spirit body, spending endless years, waiting for the opportunity for revenge. The female scales said.

Including Charles, they were stunned when they heard the words.

The last Witch Empire fell more than 30,000 years ago, and this group of scales actually lived to the era of 30,000 years later!

"Boom"

At this time, the heavy metal door suddenly shook, slowly cracking the gap that only allowed one person to walk through, and at the same time, a distant voice came from inside:

"Welcome to Quetzalcoatl."

"Please come in, guests."

Hearing the sound, the bald man and the plump woman bowed their heads respectfully.

The matriarch of the Feathered Serpent?

The three goblins looked at each other. The wanderer Mu Fan whispered, "Uncle, you can't go in." Have you forgotten how Captain Siriva and Lady Ronna died tragically? ”

Luton was so frightened that he slapped his nephew on the head and scolded, "Do you want to die!" ”

"To get in?" Charles asked the barrage with a smile.

"Come in!"

"Don't hesitate, great god!"

If you are other astral explorers, without knowing the backstory of the Thunder Age, you will definitely not dare to take the risk of entering the territory of the Quetzalcoatl clan easily.

The Quetzalcoatl have taken refuge in the Serpent of Order, the Serpent of Kindness, and they can be trusted from a factional perspective. Moreover, Charles also secretly asked Mayvis's opinion, and Yinlong's answer was very succinct-enter!

Thereupon.

It was still Charles in front, three goblins and three female team members followed, and a group of seven people passed through the metal door one after another.

Behind the door is not a spatial world, but an underground city similar to an ant nest, and the inhabitants inside are all feathered serpents that exist in a high-purity spirit state.

Most of the feathered snakes maintained their primitive monster form, with a length of more than three meters, and the transparent spirit wings spread out for nearly five meters.

Some of the feathered serpents have the upper body of a human male or female, and the spirit of these feathered serpents is even more dazzling, giving people a sense of spiritual coercion from a distance, and it is obvious that similar feathered snakes are the strongest in this group.

"Come here."

A slightly hoarse female voice rings in her head, guiding the Charles in the lingua franca of humanity.

The seven of them eventually climbed the stairs and entered a Quetzalcoatl palace.

The Quetzalcoatl, with her perfect body, floats in the air in the antechamber of the palace. She was not a spiritual body, her glowing white hair was scattered on her snow-white shoulders, and her full chest was covered with only a layer of golden scales, revealing a slender waist.

As for the lower half of the body, Charles glanced over and retracted his gaze, it was a snake body, the golden scales were dazzling, there was no trace of evil, but it was full of holy aura.

"Hello, guests from the material plane."

"I'm the owner of Quetzalcoatl, and you can call me Margaret."

Sure enough, it's a creature of order and kindness. Charles was completely relieved to see the other party's attitude, and he also bowed down and said, "I took the liberty of disturbing me." ”

The Quetzalcoatl Mistress smiled slightly, her golden eyes glancing at the three goblins who were dodging, and said in a hoarse but friendly voice, "I remember your breath. ”

"Thank you for waking me up from my slumber, this era is good, the Feathered Serpent people who have been displaced to Quetzalcoatl Island, it is time to return to the place where they should return, to continue a war that has lasted from more than 30,000 years ago to the present."

"Thank us?" The goblin scholar froze.

"Yes. It's been so long since a third of my people didn't withstand the negative spirits and became evil astral ghosts, and I executed them with my own hands the other day......" Quetzalcoatl sighed, "I can't go on like this. So your awakening is necessary. ”

"This is what you deserve!"
