Chapter 12: Sacrifices
Xiao Xuan's fingers couldn't help but caress the dark gold ring, feeling the cold chill transmitted from the ring, and then, he felt that there seemed to be a strange touch on the ring, as if something was engraved on it, Xiao Xuan subconsciously looked there, and now there was really a word engraved there, this is a Latin word, meaning the soul.
"Soul ...... Soul Ring? ”
Xiao Xuan muttered to himself, he took off the name of this ring, but according to the mark and engraving on it, its name should also be this translation.
There must still be a great secret hidden in this soul ring, but Xiao Xuan knows that he doesn't have time to dig carefully at this time, at least he has to give this task world first, and then he can have a comfortable environment in the main god space to study it carefully, so Xiao Xuan began to wave his arms and swing his legs again, intending to leave this blood pool first and continue to look for an exit.
However, halfway through the swim, Xiao Xuan suddenly stopped his movements, which made Su Muran and Sarah, who were standing on the shore, a question rising in their hearts, before Xiao Xuan's body suddenly trembled and they felt very worried, is there something wrong now?
"I'm ......" Xiao Xuan slowly closed his eyes with some uncertainty, and started swimming again, and then, he opened his eyes again, sure enough, his direction and position were not wrong, the feeling of closing his eyes and opening his eyes was actually the same, and even, the perspective explored with his eyes closed was more delicate and comprehensive and detailed than observing with his eyes open.
Xiao Xuan tried again, he began to rotate his body in the pool of blood with his eyes closed, but he could still sense the position of Su Muran and Sarah, and when he opened his eyes again, it was indeed the case, Su Muran and Sarah's positions were the same as when he sensed them with his eyes closed.
"It's ...... Psychic probing ability? Xiao Xuan said in disbelief, and then, his eyes fell on the soul ring again, he knew that the ability he suddenly had now should be the effect of wearing this soul ring, perhaps, it may be more than that, Xiao Xuan remembered that the mutant ogre could even control people's emotions, and its ability obviously came from this soul ring, the ability that ogres can control, Xiao Xuan believed that he would definitely be able to, this soul ring really brought him too many surprises.
Xiao Xuan closed his eyes again at this time, and he began to try to see how far he could use this so-called spiritual power to probe the distance, and at the same time, he continued to swim towards the edge of the blood pool.
Below the filthy blood, there are white bones, white bones are piled up, like a small mountain, this is the scene under the blood pool, of course, this qiē is naturally the situation that Xiao Xuan can detect with the spiritual power blessed by the soul ring, when Xiao Xuan continued to explore, he was stunned, because he "saw" an old altar surrounded by white bones, there were several steps on the altar, and at the top was a stone stele, and the center of the stone tablet seemed to be enshrined something.
Is this what the side quest says...... An ogre's sacrifice?
Xiao Xuan forcibly suppressed the urge to dive directly, but struggled to swim back to the edge of the blood pool, Sarah and Su Muran saw that Xiao Xuan had arrived on the shore, and they also gathered together in the direction of Xiao Xuan, and the two women worked together to pull Xiao Xuan out of the bloody surface.
Without that thick blood restraint on his body, Xiao Xuan only felt a burst of relaxation on his body, his body was lying on the rock wall, and a feeling of tiredness hit him, but Xiao Xuan forcibly shook his head and dispelled these fatigues, he couldn't rest at this time, and he must not drag on this underground for too long.
However, Xiao Xuan still decided to complete the side quest first and then find a way out of the underground, after all, in the quest world, completing the main quest is a necessary condition for survival, but completing as many side quests as possible and digging out hidden quests is the key to quickly accumulating reward points and plot levels, and it is also a necessary way to strengthen and improve yourself to become stronger.
The space ring flashed, and some clean drinking water and some simple wilderness survival medicine appeared in Xiao Xuan's hand, for this scene, Su Muran was quite calm, after all, she knew Xiao Xuan's identity, he was a veteran, and naturally he must have obtained something from the main god that was very unbelievable in the eyes of ordinary people.
Xiao Xuan is wearing a space ring on his left hand, and a soul ring is on the ring finger of his right hand, which is not very eye-catching, and in these years, there are not a few people who want to wear rings on all ten of their fingers.
"Xuan, are you a magician, how did these things come about?"
Sarah was extremely surprised by these things that suddenly appeared, but Xiao Xuan didn't have the slightest intention to satisfy Sarah's curiosity at this time, first cleaned his wound with mineral water, and then took a little anti-inflammatory medicine casually, and he didn't bother to bandage the wound on his shoulder, because he had to go down to the blood pool again after that, there was no need to waste that effort, and then, he stood up directly and walked to the edge of the blood pool again.
"Xuan, what are you doing here?"
"There's something extremely important underneath the pool of blood, and I'm going to take it out." Xiao Xuan turned his head and said to Su Muran, "You go down with me, I may need your help when the time comes." ”
Whether it is physical or psychological, Su Muran is excellent, with Su Muran's help in the blood pool, it will be greater to take out the ogre's sacrificial object, of course, the main reason is because Xiao Xuan is injured now, and his spirit is very tired, and some things will inevitably be powerless to do again.
Su Muran nodded, stood beside Xiao Xuan, and had already made a gesture of entering the blood pool with Xiao Xuan later, she didn't ask so many whys like Sarah, because she knew that this man didn't need to ask why.
"Xuan......" Sarah walked over and grabbed Xiao Xuan's arm, as if intending to persuade Xiao Xuan not to venture into the blood pool again.
"Obedient, you can stay here in peace, and don't move like you did just now, understand? I'll come up as soon as I get something, you take care of yourself first. ”
Xiao Xuan pushed Sarah's hand away, and then walked straight back into the blood pool, Su Muran followed, Sarah stood on the edge of the blood pool and looked at the two people who were gradually walking towards the middle of the blood pool, and bit her lip helplessly.
The depth of the blood surface gradually increased, Xiao Xuan and Su Muran began to swim, at this time, Xiao Xuan opened his mouth and said to Su Muran beside him: "I can see the situation under the blood pool clearly, therefore, you don't have to go down with me, you just wait on the blood surface, and when I grab your leg below, you can dive into the blood surface and pull me up, I am afraid that I will have no strength when I come out." ”
"I see, you have to be careful." Su Muran nodded, signaling that he understood.
Xiao Xuan closed his eyes, plunged deeply, and dived into the blood pool, the blood pool was full of blood water, very thick, and the density was much greater than that of water, so the resistance was also very large, and it took extra strength to swim and sneak in it, and now Xiao Xuan just gritted his teeth and insisted.
Soon, Xiao Xuan dived into the bottom of the blood pool, the deepest part of the blood pool was only four or five meters, not very deep, and Xiao Xuan could use the spiritual exploration ability given by the soul ring, so he didn't need to open his eyes to be able to understand all the scenes under the blood pool, he kept grasping the bones under the blood pool with both hands, and he was getting closer and closer to the altar.
At this moment, in the midst of a pile of black "water plants", a corpse suddenly floated out, this corpse was not white bones, she was very "fresh", because she was Juno, the dead Runo.
What made Xiao Xuan pay a little attention was that Ru Nuo was not drowned, but was killed by a gun, and there were obvious bullet holes on her body, and here, the ones with guns were herself and Su Muran, so who shot Ru Nuo, the answer is already obvious.
As for why Su Muran killed Ru Nuo with a gun, Xiao Xuan can also guess one or two, because one of Ru Nuo's legs was entangled by those black "water weeds", it is estimated that she and Su Muran fell into the blood pool together at that time, and in the process of the two of them floating together, Ru Nuo, whose legs were entangled, grabbed Su Muran, hoping that Su Muran would help her get rid of the "water weeds", but at this time, it was naturally a critical moment for each to seize the time to float and save her life. How could Su Muran joke with his life here to save someone who had nothing to do with him at all?
And in this blood water, nothing can be seen, and it is almost impossible to do anything, Su Muran doesn't know what happened to Ru Nuo, but Ru Nuo has been holding on to herself, so she can't float up, and in the end, everyone can only be drowned in this pool of blood, in this case, Su Muran can only shoot at Ru Nuo.
Xiao Xuan swam past Ru Nuo's corpse and cautiously swam past the black "water grass", and at this time, Xiao Xuan was surprised to realize that where is this "water grass", these are completely human heads!
