Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Castle of Shadows I
Led by Fu Tian, several people came to a medium-sized floating island through a manned platform.
Far away from this floating island, everyone noticed its difference, and the buildings on the other floating islands, most of which were shining with golden light, exuded a sacred smell all over, and only the twilight castle here was shrouded in gloomy shadows.
From a distance, the castle was overgrown with weeds, and the black-painted walls were covered with vines, like the arms of demons. The castle is old, full of Gothic architecture, with tall ribbed vaults. However, the windows here are very narrow, and the narrow windows contrast strongly with the vast space inside, making the interior of the castle dimly lit and dark.
When the holy light erupted from the vortex of order shone on the floating island where the castle was located, it was isolated by an invisible mysterious force, and could only penetrate a faint dim yellow halo, which made the ancient castle even more eerie. Relying on this dim light, Chauco saw that the gates and outer walls of the castle were carved with various scenes of the battle between the devil and the angels, and the hideousness of the devil and the holiness of the angels were vividly depicted.
The crowd landed directly in front of the gate of the castle, and beside them, on a vast land, stood one tomb after another, and the crosses covered with cracks lay across the tombs, looking very bleak and desolate. The cemetery is littered with messy roses and thorns, stretching as far as the eye can see.
When everyone passed by the cemetery, there was a faint cry in the grave beside them, and a large shadow erupted from the grave, turning into a dark black shadow, and the eyes of the black shadow showed a light red light, staring at everyone coldly.
Seeing this strange black shadow, of course, everyone was on guard. Xiao Ke asked the burial sky, "What are these?" ”
Fu Tian observed it carefully, and said: "These are the souls who died in the battle with the shadow creatures, they are corrupted by the shadow energy, and they cannot return to the sea of consciousness, they can only become the minions of the shadows, wandering in the world in pain!" ”
As he was talking, those black shadows suddenly moved, they slowly floated into the air, frantically converged in one place, and finally condensed into a huge phantom, rushing towards everyone!
Funeral Heaven shouted, "Elena, purify them with a moonlight blast!" ”
Elena shouted softly, and with a slight finger of her jade hand, a hazy moonlight fell from the sky and washed over the body of the huge phantom, and the phantom let out a painful cry, like a woman crying in the middle of the night. Under the washing of the moonlight, the black energy was stripped from the phantom, and when the impact ended, the black on the phantom's body had completely disappeared, scattered into a faint dark blue soul. By this time, they had regained their former appearance, most of them were winged people, but there were also a few other races, and even trialists.
Those souls smiled, nodded in thanks, and disappeared into the sky of light.
A hint came from the Soul Seal: "You have rescued the souls corrupted by the shadows, and you have received the blessing of the souls, and the shadow creatures in the Shadow Castle have reduced your damage by 10%. ”
Wanqing smiled: "We're lucky, this kind of thing doesn't happen every time." ”
Burial Heaven replied: "Then there must be a means to solve it, if we can't purify them, we can only get the curse of corrupting souls, and then instead of reducing the damage by 10%, it will increase!" ”
Several people came to the gate of the Shadow Castle, the portal at the door was rare black, like a small cosmic black hole, it made people's scalps numb, Wanqing scanned it with a code card, the black hole slowly rotated, she smiled slightly, tied up her long flowing hair, and entered first.
To everyone's surprise, the interior of the castle is not at all as dilapidated and desolate as it looks, on the contrary, it is brightly lit and resplendent inside.
The interior of the entire castle is a huge palace complex, completely Western-style, with high domes, huge columns, and gold as the main color throughout, and rows of oil paintings hanging on the walls, in which several people have even found several world famous works on earth.
The huge palace is very neat, and the golden marble floor is spotless, and everyone's face can be clearly reflected. However, instead of admiring this beautiful palace, the crowd carefully searched for the enemy who did not know where to exist. But no one noticed that when everyone withdrew their eyes to observe the ground, the images they reflected on the ground were all smiling strangely!
Shoko and the others had walked a long distance, and they didn't find any enemies, and he asked suspiciously, "Is there really a shadow creature here?" As the name suggests, shadow creatures should like dark places! ”
"Don't talk nonsense, who told you that shadow creatures must like the dark?" Don't think of shadow creatures as brainless monsters, on the contrary, some shadow creatures are very intelligent, even much higher than humans, so they are very cunning and will definitely attack when you don't expect it, don't let your guard down! ”
The men walked around two corners to a long, winding corridor where the walls were filled with a large candelabra every few steps, emitting a bright and warm light.
On either side of the corridor, there are two rows of statues composed of armor, which closely resemble the full-body plate armor of ancient European knights, covering from head to toe, and only a few parts such as eyes, elbows and knees are exposed.
Several people carefully examined these combined armors, but unfortunately they were empty inside, and there were not monsters hidden as imagined, Xiao Ke was curious for a moment, picked up a helmet of armor, put it on his head, put a few poss on the ground, and laughed to himself.
Wanqing glared at him, snatched the helmet, put it back in its place, and said angrily: "Do you still have the mind to be funny in the parallel space?" What if there's something weird about the armor? ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she put back into the armor where she came, and the eyes of the helmet suddenly flashed two dark red lights, like two bloodthirsty eyes. The armor that was originally an empty shell suddenly moved, pulled out the sharp long sword at his waist, and slashed at Wanqing with great speed!
Xiao Ke's eyes were quick, he pulled Wanqing away, stretched out his hand, and already used his arm to block the attack of the sword, he waved his hand to summon an energy spear, and a spear was inserted through the gap in the armor warrior's helmet, and there was a stabbing sound in the armor, like throwing a red-hot iron into the water, and a puff of black smoke actually rose. After the armor was pierced by the energy spear, it writhed violently, and after a while, the shadow dissipated, and the armor seemed to be sucking the support away from the inside, and scattered to the ground with a bang!
At this moment, the armor on the entire corridor moved, and there were hundreds of them. They slowly turned their heads, and through the gaps in their eyes, a bloodthirsty red light came out, staring at everyone deadly.
Xiao Ke probed with mental power, and the message he gave was: "Shadow Warrior, HP 300, attack with shadow energy, after damaging the enemy, it will make ** wounds difficult to heal, the healing effect will be reduced by 50%, and the damage of physical attacks to Shadow Warriors will be reduced by 50%. ”
Fu Tian Ning said: "Be careful, shadow creatures are not afraid of physical attacks, these shadow warriors are quite easy to deal with, and most of the other shadow creatures are completely immune to physical attacks!" ”
At this time, the shadow warriors had already launched an attack, and these empty shell armor moved silently, but the swing of the sword was powerful and swift, and it seemed that the attributes of strength and agility were very high.
The fierce battle was about to break out, due to the limited damage of physical attacks to these shadow warriors, the funeral sky waved his hand into an air cannon three times, each cannon was poured into the gap in the head of a shadow warrior with great precision, and then exploded inside the helmet of the shadow warrior, and the violent wind swept away the shadow energy that controlled the armor, and the armor of the three shadow warriors was scattered.
Xiao Ke's energy spear is the nemesis of the shadow warrior, the spear is composed of pure energy condensation, when it pierces the shadow, the two energies are as incompatible as fire and water, and the shadow energy can be exhausted in an instant.
Elena snorted and unleashed the Fall of the Stars, and the energy star projectile smashed on the Shadow Warriors, smashing them all over the place, but when the Shadow Warriors tried to attack her, the other four were firmly in front of her, blocking the Shadow Warriors' offensive route.
Wanqing waved her arms, and every time she slashed her hand knife, orange-yellow energy weapon phantoms would appear, and those phantoms were like energy spears, pure energy condensation, and where the sword light flickered, several shadow warriors and their armor were cut into several pieces in a row.
Wanqing's arms are actually her biggest secret. This involves her father, the national government, and the earth-shattering plan of another world, which has turned her arms into an invincible holy sword, and also has a certain ability to control metal, and her secret is only known to Xiao Ke! (The secret of Wanqing's strength will be mentioned later)
When she entered the temple that night, her secret turned into an amazing natural ability, Devouring Soul Eater! Wanqing's arms can devour any soul weapon, fuse it with her own arms, and attach all the weapons' attacks, special effects and skills to her arms, she is attacking, the devoured weapon can conjure up an energy form to appear on the front of her palm, auxiliary attack, whenever a more powerful weapon is devoured, it will replace the weak weapon.
The name of the Empress of the Blades of the Late Qing Dynasty is worthy of its name after entering the Temple!
Kane roared and unleashed the Flame Frenzy, which was a qualitative boost after reaching level 3, and the loss of life from Level 3 was a little bit every two seconds compared to Level 1, which doubled the combat time after his Rage, and in this kind of battle against group enemies, the special effect of the Flame Path was extremely effective. Flames burned in the path behind him, and the Shadow Warrior would soon die under the scorching flames and the rain of energy.
One by one, the Shadow Warriors were scattered in armor, and the ground was in shambles, and when the last Shadow Warrior fell under the claws of the Beastmaster of the Burial Heaven, this battle was not easy, and at this point, Elena's star-falling spell was not even finished!
