Volume 4 The Stranger Chapter 42 The Endless Stone Staircase

"You put your arm back ......"

"Why?" Although Wang Feng didn't know what trick he wanted to play, he still did what he wanted.

Henry Bacon also stretched his arms back, and the arms of the two men were clasped together.

"I see...... The two arms are stretched back, while the other person puts his own arms through the hole formed by the arms, forming rings with each other and buckling with each other so that his back is not exposed...... In this way, the skill increase speed will not give the monster a chance, which is indeed a good way. ”

The corners of Wang Feng's mouth rose: "You guy is quite reliable." ”

Henry Bacon sneered: "You want to praise me, and you will praise me after you escape." ”

The speed of the two of them increased a lot, and they soon arrived at the exit position.

For some unknown reason, the monsters didn't follow, but blocked the exit.

"Looks like they can't get in......"

Henry Bacon looked behind him.

"Hmm...... Something must have restricted them, and they could only move around in this area. ”

Wang Feng nodded, then let go of his arm and moved his muscles.

Henry Bacon looked bottomless downward, and if he accidentally fell, he would definitely be crushed.

They were now on a platform, with stairs close to the walls, and the surrounding walls were circular and extended upwards.

"It's a bit of a tall ......"

Wang Feng raised his head and looked overhead, completely unable to see the end of the steps.

Henry Bacon patted his head: "I can only climb up ......"

The stairs are very narrow and moss-topped, and the middle part of the building is a hollow that leads up and down, and from time to time there is a strong wind blowing up from the bottom, like a wail.

"What are you looking at?"

Ever since the two of them walked up the stairs, Wang Feng had been looking around.

Wang Feng glanced at Henry Bacon and then explained: "If you meet a monster...... There's no way we can escape. First of all, these stairs are too narrow and do not have a large range of movement. And there's wind down there to disturb us...... I'm now thinking about how to run away if I'm in danger. ”

Henry Bacon felt that Wang Feng was just worried: "It seems that no one has left for a long time, there is a lot of moss on it, and it is very slippery to walk up, so instead of worrying about monsters, it is better to worry about how not to fall." ”

"Hmm...... But be prepared. ”

What Henry Bacon said was indeed right, but Wang Feng was not unfounded, he just thought of all the possibilities and planned them.

There are many things that you can't think of, and you can only be foolproof if you are well prepared.

The surrounding walls are carved with frescoes, which are so strange that they are difficult to read, as if they are narrating something.

Occasionally, there is an inscription that resembles hieroglyphs, but it is almost smoothed.

"Who built this castle? I don't feel like Van Gogh's ancestor. Henry Bacon stroked the mural on the wall.

"It's certainly not Van Gogh's ancestors, this castle is much older than his ancestors...... At least since the birth of mankind. Wang Feng stopped and gasped, the moss on the steps was too smooth, and he had to be careful with every step, so it took a lot more time and effort than before.

"You're exaggerating, aren't you? It also starts from the birth of mankind. ”

Henry Bacon didn't feel as exaggerated as Wang Feng said.

Wang Feng shook his head: "I'm not exaggerating, it's a fact...... If I'm not mistaken, the history of the castle is recorded on this wall. He pointed to a pattern: "I don't know what they mean, but there is no human record of it, and I guess it must be another extinct creature that exists on Earth." Otherwise, I wouldn't say that it began with the birth of mankind. ”

Henry Bacon didn't speak, but looked carefully at the fresco on the wall.

"When this planet was born, countless outsiders came to this planet and made their home here. The monsters we encounter are nothing more than outsiders. They have power beyond our reach. And we came to this castle because it was just one of the remnants they left behind. ”

Wang Feng raised his head and looked at the top of the photo: "How long will this go?" ”

They had been walking for a long time, but the feeling to Wang Feng was that the two of them seemed to be standing still and not moving. It seems that this staircase will never be completed.

"I suspect I'm going round and round in and out......," Henry Bacon began to grumble.

"No, you have to make a mark. I suspect we've been standing still, probably because we've run into a ghost. Wang Feng picked up a small pebble from the ground and drew a symbol on the wall.

The two of them walked down the steps again.

Wang Feng kept his eyes on the wall and paid attention to the mark he had just made.

"No, I'm exhausted...... I'll have to rest for a while...... "After walking for so long, Henry Bacon's legs were starting to go limp.

"No need to go...... We've been walking around the same place all the time. Wang Feng stopped: "The ghost hits the wall." ”

"How is that possible?"

Henry Bacon was a little incredulous: "Do you see the mark you made?" ”

"Hmm!"

Wang Feng pointed to the wall in front of him: "This is the mark I just made." ”

Henry Bacon stepped forward and saw the five-pointed star drawn by Wang Feng.

"It's impossible, we've been going up all the time, how can it be ......"

Wang Feng thought for a moment and looked at Henry Bacon with a serious face: "That should be an illusion, after all, we are already in a state of extreme exhaustion now, and it is not surprising that we will have an illusion." It seems that we are actually going up, but we are actually going down, and this step is closed from the beginning, so no matter how we go, we will return to the original point......"

"In that case, wouldn't it be better if we went straight back to the previous platform?"

Wang Feng shook his head and denied Henry Bacon: "The platform has disappeared, haven't you noticed?" At the time of the platform, this step always goes upward, but at a certain point the step forms a closed circle, but we did not notice it at the time. ”

Henry Bacon swallowed violently: "There must be an outlet." ”

"At first, I thought the frescoes were just a history of the castle...... But now I realize that I was wrong, and that these murals also serve to seduce us. ”
