Hao Ren didn't know why the places with evil spirits, curses, witchcraft, etc., had to be so eerie, because this kind of atmospheric arrangement actually had no effect on the effectiveness of witchcraft: he had consulted with magic experts like Itzax and Vivien, and confirmed that the magic circle that summoned the undead did not necessarily have to be engraved on black stone, and that the evil runes did not conflict with the golden pigment, and that magic was flexible and changeable, and it was never taboo to decorate.
Therefore, he thinks that the dungeon that seals the evil spirit can be equipped with a hundred and ten fluorescent lamps to make it brilliant, and there may be two rows of Teletubbies and Pleasant Goats next to the magic array, and of course, the coffin of the evil spirit can be painted with SpongeBob SquarePants - these things do not affect the effect of the seal itself.
Hao Ren's whimsical thoughts were of course inevitably made Vivien fall for a while, but he really felt that it was worth trying: at least it would make the sealing place seem more friendly and help the caretaker's physical and mental health. And he thinks that if it is really set up in this way, it will also effectively enhance the effect of the seal: imagine that the sealed devil and evil spirit pushed open the coffin painted with SpongeBob SquarePants, stepped on the puzzle floor of the Pleasant Goat and walked down the altar, on the left is a Vajra gourd baby, and on the right is a little demon fairy......
Anyway, Vivien said that if someone used this style of altar to summon her one day, she would rather die in the portal......
But no matter how Hao Ren complains. The dungeon of the Andrea family castle is still full of ghosts.
The rectangular stone chamber is lined with vague portraits of people whose faces are almost indistinguishable, and on the stone wall facing the ramp is the veiled witch. Other than that, the stone chamber is empty, making it seem like a quirky gallery.
Next to the portrait of the witch is a small locked iron door. There was a thin layer of hoarfrost condensed on the iron door, and at first Hao Ren thought it was just underground water vapor freezing on the iron door at low temperatures, but soon he found that the layer of hoarfrost was active.
It was like a layer of breathing light, slowly floating on the iron door.
"Do angry spirits like to play tricks?" Hao Ren made the strange atmosphere here furious, but after checking the shield capacity on his body, he boldly stepped forward and pushed the iron door, unexpectedly, the iron door opened as soon as he pushed it, "No lock?" Are they not afraid that the wrath will come out? β
"This door is not a barrier to the wraith, it is to hold out humanity - as a marker to mark the boundary between the human world and the demon realm. Prevent any unlucky guy from breaking in," Nangong Sanba clenched his crossbow and looked very nervous, "Beyond this door, we will be out of the normal space, and the further we go, the more we will enter the world of angry spirits, and the deepest part is like a crazy place like another world." Don't be careless, I know you're all very good at fighting, but dealing with angry spirits. It's useless to be able to fight. β
Behind the iron gate, there was a hollow void, just a dark corridor with no lighting inside.
Hao Ren took the lead and let the number of terminals float in front of him. At the same time, rubbing the stone walls beside him, he felt that those stone walls were very fragile, and a large piece of sand-like things would fall down with a light touch: "How long has it been since no one entered this place?" β
"If I didn't count the one I visited two days ago. It's been at least two hundred years," Nangong Sanba's voice came from behind. "The first few generations of the ancestors of the Andre family still have some skills in exorcism and life-saving, probably learned from witches. They were still able to enter the iron door to reinforce the seal on the surface, but soon the Fury affected their future family heirs and eliminated the exorcism from Andre's family completely. It is said that no member of the Andrei family has ever entered the iron gate since...... But maybe there are a few brave exorcists who have been there, who knows. β
The bricks on the stone wall were rough and cold, and some rune-like nicks could be faintly seen on them, Hao Ren reached out and stroked those nicks, but the bricks were more fragile than he imagined, and a large amount of sand fell on the spot.
No...... Not sand falling from bricks!
Hao Ren looked at his fingers, flicked them slightly, and then watched as his skin and flesh fell apart like dry sand sculptures, and the yellow-brown sand fell from between his fingers, followed by his palms, wrists, and forearms......
"Hallucination," Hao Ren was confused in shock for two seconds, then shook his hand vigorously, he finally felt that his spiritual power was fighting some kind of inexplicable erosion, and as the erosion faded, his hand returned to its original state, "Be careful, there will be hallucinations here." β
Betsy, who was walking next to him, also seemed to have just woken up from a dream, and the smirk on her face quickly turned into anger before it faded: "I finally saw a mountain of gold, it turned out to be a TM special effect?!" β
Needless to say, Hao Ren also knew what this girl had just seen.
The dark corridor stretched somewhere, and the light at the end of the count looked a little weak, so Lily was very happy to lift the fire and help light the way. Her eyes had turned golden, and she forcibly detected the illusions around her with her senses beyond human senses, and Hao Ren could still hear her whispering as she walked: "Braised pork ribs are fake, sweet and sour pork ribs are fake, meat buns are fake, spicy strips...... Spicy strips...... Spicy strips are fake......"
It was not easy for her to open her way forward under the influence of the hallway of illusions.
Deeper in, strange cold winds began to appear in the tunnels, as if there was an exit to the surface in the corridors deep underground. Hao Ren felt something strange on the soles of his feet as he walked, and when he looked down, he found that he had stepped on the thick snow at some point.
The corridors grew wider on both sides, and the walls twisted and pulled out uncharacteristically, leaving behind unobstructed stumps and broken columns. Everything was covered with a thick layer of snow, and snowflakes were falling from the darkness and whirling towards everyone under the stronger and stronger winds of the strange wind. Hao Ren looked up and saw that he could no longer see the rock roof of the corridor: there was only endless darkness above, and heavy snow was falling from the darkness.
Betsy pulled out a delicate one-handed sword from under her coat, and a layer of flame quickly burned on the blade, and she looked solemn: "Hallucination? β
"No, it's true," Nangong Sanba held a crossbow in one hand, and took out a few small medicine bottles from his arms with the other, "We have crossed the boundary line of reality, this is the territory of the angry spirit, and any abnormal sight is true - this is the result of the distortion of time and space." β
"Terminal, scan." Hao Ren simply ordered.
"Left front, energy convergence phenomenon."
Nangong Sanba immediately raised his crossbow and pointed in that direction, and almost at the same time, a vague white light suddenly appeared in the dark clearing in front of him, and the light emitted a series of creepy screams, and the walls of the corridor on both sides, which had been stretched far away to an abnormal position, suddenly became even more distorted, and disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye, making this place unprecedentedly open.
With a soft bowstring "bang", Nangong Sanba fired a silver-white crossbow arrow, but this crossbow arrow was not lethal: when it flew in front of the angry spirit, it suddenly exploded, bursting out with a burst of golden light, and the figure of the angry spirit seemed to materialize for a moment under this burst of light, and Nangong Sanba took this opportunity to throw out the small medicine bottle in his other hand.
The vial exploded the moment it came into contact with the Fury, and the holy salt inside burst into flames.
However, the Fury Spirit didn't do anything at all under such an attack, it just shook aimlessly in place for a while, and then suddenly rushed towards Hao Ren!
Hao Ren had already taken out his matching gun (he was not sure that his spear could deal with this mass of things that didn't even have a physical body), and raised his gun and opened fire the moment the angry spirit pounced.
With a bang, a blue-white light exploded, and a large piece of fine azure crystals fell from the sky.
Hao Ren's shot did hit the angry spirit, but the latter's body expanded into a white mist with a large range at that moment, and the ghost energy with the gun only dissipated a small part of this white mist!
The shadow coalesced again, but just as it was about to launch a second attack, a bright grid suddenly flew from the side, and the grid was made up of countless small bats, each of which acted as a node, bursting out a large amount of thin electricity to connect with the other bats, and the web they intertwined was even larger than when the wraith spread into a white mist, enveloping the latter in the blink of an eye.
The grid and the furious spirit slammed into each other, and then disappeared with a glick of light, except for a swarm of small bats fluttering back to Vivien.
Lily scratched her hair: "That's it?" β
"No, it's just a hello to it," Vivien frowned, "It was just a 'phenomenon' caused by the Fury, and we are far from seeing it in its true form." β
Hao Ren exhaled and looked at the dark snow field spreading out in front of himβhe kept reminding himself that it was in a corridor under Andre's Castle, but he didn't know what to say about it.
