Chapter 13: The Broken Seal
Chapter 13: The Broken Seal
The power of the Hell Ferryman was extremely strange, and with Zhang Shen's current soul cultivation, it was difficult to parry, and he was instantly dragged into the illusion by the plot.
After a whirlwind, he came to the reversed world. The dark void, the deep and endless ocean, the waves of the black sea, the space is full of indescribable eerie treachery.
Two black shadows suddenly appeared, turning from virtual to real, and they were the ferrymen of hell.
In the illusion, the black robes on their bodies that had not changed for 10,000 years disappeared, revealing their skinny and shriveled bodies, which at first glance looked like two goblin corpses, which was disgusting.
桀桀桀~~
The ferryman made his voice for the first time, and a grim laugh came out, full of smugness.
Pulling Zhang Shen into the illusion, the two seemed to think that they had eaten him, but they were not in a hurry, and looked around leisurely. The specific appearance of the illusion is based on the memories of the person who was attacked, and it is the first time that the two of them have seen such a strange illusion, and they find it quite interesting.
It's not because of the geographical structure reflected in the illusion, but because of its peculiar temperament. As a derivative of the laws of hell, the ferryman sensed the extraordinary.
Zhang Shen was unaware of the performance of the two.
At this moment, all his attention was on the reversal of the world.
In the labyrinth, for the memories of the wooden plate after it was shattered, all the memories were sealed for some unknown reason, and Zhang Shen tried many times, but he couldn't unlock the invisible seal that could not be touched.
I didn't expect that today it was coincidentally solved because of the attack of the ferryman from hell!
"Come" to the reversed world again, and a corresponding part of the memory resurfaces.
He remembered. After the wooden plate was broken, he and the other guards did leave the labyrinth and see the light of day again, but it was only a feast before the execution, a short-lived enjoyment. Soon, the black-robed man who called himself "Heaven" waved his hand, and everyone was captured one by one, and when he fixed his eyes again, he was already in the reversed world.
And after that? What happened after that?
Zhang Shen's brows furrowed, his fists clenched, racking his brains to regain his original memory, but the lack of trigger conditions was just in vain. This futility has been repeated countless times in the long years of the Void Wandering.
The ferryman is very confident in his own strength. Indeed, the enemy's behavior was as they expected, and he was completely trapped in a fantasy and unable to extricate himself. Having appreciated enough, the two met their eyes and completed the partition agreement in the blink of an eye.
The way they look at Zhang Shen is exactly the same as when humans look at poultry and livestock, but with a little more "pity".
The two of them suddenly had a knife in their hands, and they walked towards Zhang Shen with a big grin, gesturing at him.
Zhang Shen is completely immersed in his own world, seemingly unaware of everything in the outside world.
Suddenly, there was a thunderclap!
The rumbling roar resounded throughout the fantasy world, and the two ferrymen were also startled.
The thunder was followed by a strong wind.
The black ocean above set off huge waves, the sound of the waves crashing was extremely clear, and everything was shockingly real.
The two couldn't help but glance at each other, and saw a trace of hidden fear in each other's eyes.
Then there was a deep sense of shame. I can't forgive myself for having a fear of the enemy on my home field!
Fear transforms into anger and murderous intent.
The two of them walked a few steps quickly, clenching the long knife and slashing at Zhang Shen's head.
The blade slashed the wind, the momentum was fierce, and when it was about to touch Zhang Shen's head and smash his head open, two thumb-thick purple thunderbolts shot out, with extremely fast speed, and accurately landed on the ferryman's eyebrows.
The bodies of the two trembled, and even the people with knives disappeared!
The focus of Zhang Shen's eyes was always on the Black Sea above, motionless. The ferryman is just an ant that can be pinched to death at will, so he doesn't have to care at all.
I don't know how long it took him to move.
Leaping into the air, like a sharp arrow, pointing straight at the strange Black Sea.
Sealing this kind of thing, once the first crack is opened, it will be easy to do after that. It was originally formless and phaseless, but now Zhang Shen could vaguely feel its existence. Following some kind of vague sense, Zhang Shen realized that as long as he entered the Black Sea above, he could get more information.
However, the distance that seems to be close at hand is even farther than the end of the world.
Zhang Shen soared, moving forward at full speed, but still couldn't touch the ocean that seemed to be on the opposite side.
Suddenly—
Heaven and earth are turned upside down, and light and darkness are extinguished.
Fix your eyes again, and you're back in hell!
Still inside the wooden boat, his hands wrapped in a layer of rocks were grabbed by the ferryman. As soon as Zhang Shen moved, the two of them collapsed like a sand tower, and the ashes were annihilated - their souls had dissipated in the illusion. Because of this, the remaining strength is not enough to sustain Zhang Shen's further exploration.
Wiping away the blood from the corners of his mouth, Zhang Shen only felt that his head was throbbing, as if someone was stirring with a red-hot iron rod.
He underestimated the enemy. I didn't expect that the ferryman, who looked weak, had such a strange power, and was suddenly attacked, and he was caught off guard and unable to defend himself, although it was a blessing in disguise to break a seal, but the sequelae that followed made Zhang Shen feel awe-inspired.
"Fortunately, the other three died when they fell into the illusion, otherwise the consequences would have been unpredictable......"
After a self-examination, Zhang Shen ignored the sharp pain in his brain, and carefully exerted the power of the Gate of Truth, and the wooden boat, which could only be controlled by manpower, and the limited speed was instantly like a tractor with a sports car engine, and Biu's voice disappeared.
Somewhere in hell, a castle of the utmost luxury.
This is the lair of Hades, the king of Hades, and at the moment he is leisurely in his own home, chatting with his wife Persephone while teasing his big dog, very happy.
Hell has its own rules, which are quite perfect, and unless there are things or special events outside the rules, there is no need for Hades to deal with anything. It's not just him, it's the other gods of hell and even the gods of Olympus.
It is precisely because of this that the idle gods will sneak into the world every now and then to change their faces to chat with girls/handsome guys.
Hades, as an outlier in the Olympian god lineage, has a very dedicated relationship, and has never gone out to mess around since marrying Persephone, and the relationship between the two couples is very good.
Hades frowned suddenly, and a vague trace of doubt crossed his eyes.
Persephone knew everything about her husband and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Hades stared for a moment: "It seems that some strange guy has gone to hell." Big dog, go and see whose little cub is restless. ”
The aura of divine power in the sense is not familiar, according to normal circumstances, it must be some demigod or human hero. As for demigods and heroes, don't they mean bastards?
Woof!
The big black dog was enjoying the gentle scratching of the hostess, and it was so comfortable that it was destroyed, and he was so angry that he didn't dare to send it to his master, so he could only transfer it to the intruder, and secretly decided to teach him a good lesson and give him some color.
The big black dog moved like a whirlwind, the speed was extremely fast, the moment it left the castle of Hades, the original docile appearance instantly became fierce and brutal, and two smaller heads were born, one on the left and one on the right, and it was the ancestor of the legendary three-headed dog of hell - Cerberus! (The Three-Headed Dog is a race, but only Cerberus has intelligence, and is a descendant of the Demon Progenitor Storm Troll and the Serpent Banshee Eckadena, and by the way, Hydra and the Sphinx the Sphinx are also descendants of Ecardena)
Seeing Cerberus leave, Persephone smiled: "Little Beros is really getting more and more naughty. ”
Laugh at it!
Hades showed a fascinated expression, and suddenly smiled lewdly: "Little Beros is not here, do you see if it's ......?"
"Nasty, oops~~"
……………… Divide............ Cut............ Line..................
After turning on the acceleration plug-in, Zhang Shen finally got rid of the ferryman's entanglement temporarily. Although the latter could sense his general position, the ferryman's little broken boat was too slow to even follow behind to eat dust.
I didn't encounter an annoying ferryman for several days, and Zhang Shen's headache sequelae also recovered. The scenery of hell is the same, and after a long time, aesthetic fatigue makes him lose interest, and he just rushes away.
Hell is vast, but it is also boundary.
Think of Hell as a continent covered in magma, but this continent floats in mid-air and is very irregular in shape, a shuttle-shaped.
On both sides of the "shuttle" are the untouchable void chaos; Its two tips, but each of them has a very wonderful thing.
What Zhang Shen is going to at this moment is one of them, which is located at a certain tip of the "shuttle".
There, there's a high wall!
In fact, it is inaccurate to describe it as a "wall", but any intelligent life will only have this feeling when it sees it for the first time: what a majestic wall......
It is like a pillar between hell and earth, supporting the two interfaces, and it is a pillar-like existence, and it is impossible to peek into its end.
This is the gateway to Tartaros.
Generally speaking, there are often passages such as doors/openings in high walls, and this is no exception.
But its doors are special.
The Ancestor of the Monsters - Typhon!
That's right, the gateway to Tartarus is Typhon, the oldest monster and the heir of Hera, the queen of the twelve gods...... Legend has it that Hera, because of her resentment, gave birth to Typhon without having a relationship with Zeus. As for whether she had sex with other male creatures, it is unknown.
After the victory of the Titan War, after the Titans were imprisoned in Tartarus, Comrade Zeus had a "flash of inspiration" and captured Typhon and used secret methods to integrate them into the high wall, allowing it to replace the original gate and become part of the high wall, acting as the guard of Tartarus.
For all this, Typhon's biological mother, Hera, did not care.
There's no way, one god is already weak, and the other is too much, so he doesn't care about the life and death of one or two unfavored guys......
There are many children, just so willful!
