Chapter Seventy-Four: The Battle of the Sewers (5)

The black hair was like coal dug deep underground, ignited by the sparks, and the rose-red flames continued to rise, like a volcano that erupted again after many years of dormancy, and the golden flames under the skin of his forehead were stirring back and forth, making Aldrich Tris's body glow with pure white brilliance like a majestic immortal god.

The tormented ghost of the widow, trapped in a room of blood by a sorcerer, transforms into a heart-rending wail of pain. As a result of being used to kill the innocent criminals, it has gradually transformed into a banshee, and the child's nightmare is her source, with the deliberate spread, she gradually decays, but unfortunately lacks the evil baptism of the abyss species, and has never been able to take the last step.

Behind her, the bronze bell that was about to come to the end, the hourglass of time of the banshee's howl, stuck at the last moment, as if the knight of the sun god had descended here, opened his spiritual realm to contain the widow's ghost.

Unexpectedly, this triggered the trap that the sorcerer had planted in the room in advance, and the icy elemental storm spread rapidly in all directions with the chandelier as the starting point. The cold wave of death swept by, the ominous dark red ceiling turned into a dead silence of ice blue and white frost, and the faint green phosphorus fire was extinguished in an instant, as if it had never existed.

Aldrich and the widow ghost are still in a stalemate, realizing that danger is coming, and instinctively seeking to save themselves, but fortunately they hold the mad knight in their hands and restrain their hands against their shoulders. Due to his high position, most of the power of the Elemental Storm was concentrated on this poor man, taking his life in an instant.

The aftermath immediately dissipated, but the power was insufficient, even the skin of the Knight of Tris was not frostbitten, and he now had extremely strong elemental resistance and was completely immune to psychic attacks, so he stood in place unharmed, but it was the Night Watchman who was squatting against the wall and the black knight on the opposite side were not prepared to choke on the frozen ground.

The life that quietly withered in the cold wind meant that another soul fire was completely extinguished, but it was inexplicably pulled into the silent widow's ghost, supplemented by the source of this fallen black knight, and the bronze clock that had just stopped turned again.

Aldrich had no choice but to hope that the transcendent state when the source of faith burned would be able to avoid the hammer of fate.

The "......" whistle that had never been heard before, the frightened screams of countless women, spread far and wide, not penetrating the walls, but reverberating back and forth in the room.

Everyone present, except Aldrich Triss, who was still standing, collapsed limply, their bodies trembling violently, and the intense nausea made them vomit constantly.

The battle in the spiritual realm is still going on, but with the end of the Banshee's howl, the widow ghost, who has exhausted its source, can no longer maintain its black-skinned, scarlet-eyed banshee form.

Aldrich Tris, who was the embodiment of the sun god, did not strangle her with a sacred flame condensing weapon, but emitted a soft sunlight that was not strong, slowly melting away the traces of the banshee left in the widow's ghost shell. The gray-black particles continued to peel off and roll down, like flowing mercury, gathering at the edge of the skirt, lingering and still trying to cling to climb. It quietly evaporates in high temperatures.

'Is that her burden, her guilt, always entangled and refusing to let go?' the sympathetic Aldrich Triss made the following decision without even thinking about it.

"I hear your cry, as I hear your prayers, I come at this call, and I hold you in my arms, and I will bear your burdens, and let eternity begin here. ”

The sunlight then turned intense, the black mercury evaporated in an instant under the heat, and the sorrowful ghost smiled with relief for the first time, tears of joy slipped from the corners of her eyes, and the pillars that maintained her existence collapsed, and the colorful starlight flickered non-stop, and then a light breeze swept up, sending her to where the deceased should go.

"Whew!" Aldrich Tris, who had stopped the burning of the source of virtue and returned to his original state, felt an indescribable exhaustion, not an unscathed body, after all, there were mad knights who carried most of the damage, and the instant blow of the banshee's howl could not hurt the soul that was closely protected by the source of faith.

His mind and spiritual world were so traumatized that his silent efforts to maintain the sanctification of the golden glory brought his spiritual power to the brink of exhaustion.

Then the promise to bear the guilt of the widow's ghost weighs Aldrich's burden, and the sweet taste of killing, the smell of death and blood, and the joy of revenge, turns into terrible thunderclouds that are constantly eroding the majestic halls of the mountaintops.

He found that all his knightly skills were sealed and could not be used, but fortunately, the clever martial arts were fortunately preserved, and he gently put down the crazy knight who had been frozen into ice, and shook his head vigorously, feeling as if he had been working for three days and three nights without sleep.

Unable to concentrate, unable to focus a bit, the monochromatic room kept spinning, Aldrich grabbed a handful of snow on the ground, wiped his face vigorously and repeatedly, and the biting cold finally brought his dizzy head back to some sense.

Several knights of the Night Watch, who kept vomiting and vomiting bitter water, gradually eased up, and Captain Rufer West, who had the best physique, wiped the yellow-green saliva from the corners of his mouth, stood up first, took out the phosphorus wood from his arms, and wiped it vigorously on the thick soles of his leather boots, and the familiar smell of rotten eggs rekindled the extinguished torch.

In the darkness, the flames gave hope and courage, then Perry Prescott, then the Bull Kent, and the other two full-time knights who lacked exercise, Rick Demilo and Myron Elton, stood up and bent over and wanted to vomit, but in order not to lose face in front of others, they forcibly suppressed them. Collect the extinguished torches and light them with each other's fire, and the dim room will have light.

The room was empty, there was nothing to clean, the night watchman pulled up the five dying black knights in the opposite corner, the negative emotions of the widow's ghost did not hurt them much, but the instant blow of the banshee's howl threw all of them to the gallows who could not win the victory Maiden Vitria, and the noose was tightly wrapped around their necks, and it was almost a breath of air.

Brute Kent picked up a hand to shatter the broken shield guard, in the underworld his profession is a dark guard, but unfortunately it only ends here, his physique is good, and he can still speak.

"Give it to me...... Don't let me go on...... This damn pain...... Enough torture. ”

Aldrich saw them looking for a secret door to escape on the wall just now, and it must have been blocked, and it was expected to be open soon for normal use: "Kent, ask him where the secret door is?"

The brute bull nodded, gently shaking the drowsy, dying black knight, "Tell me, where the secret door is, I promise to give you a good time, die as a knight, not at the hands of a ghost." ”

The dark guard who stepped into the underworld with one foot, as if hearing the most beautiful music in the world, took a deep breath and turned his gaze to the wall beside him: "Count the seventh layer from top to bottom, count the twelfth column from left to right, push inside, and the key to open the secret door." ”

Aldrich Triss did so without hesitation, and sure enough, he found the only loose stone brick, pushed it hard, and touched the hidden mechanism, and behind the wall of the blood-colored room, there was the sound of metal gears turning.

"Ding!" a door that allowed the two of them to flick open in parallel, and Aldridge walked ahead as usual, and he didn't say a word about what to do with the Black Knight, but Captain Rufer West, who also hated and even hated them, picked up the topic.

"Kent, send them on their way. ”

Without hesitation, the brute bull took the dagger from his belt, and with a pop, the blade sank into the shield guard's chest, almost slicing his heart in half. Kent, who was a mercenary, was extremely proficient with this knife, and carried out the captain's orders with a blank face, preferring to have blood on his hands.

"The Night Watchman left the Scarlet Room, the Black Widow ghost seemed to disappear into thin air, the weakened version of the Banshee's Howl didn't hurt a single hair of their hair, and it was all ours who died. What a loss, we suffered a big loss. ”

"Those worthless black knights are as many as they want, anyway, in any dilapidated tavern, with a flick of the ticket in your hand, you can recruit a large group of down-and-out knights, and people who easily give up their knightly precepts for money are everywhere. ”

"That's right, after giving up the old-fashioned and regular poor life, letting their desires drive them, and falling into the dark realm, their source of faith is even richer, and their strength is at least thirty percent stronger than in the past. Coupled with a rich life, there are people rushing to sell us our lives and break our heads. ”

"Taking advantage of this buffer time, I finally found out the reason for the Dark Police Department's punishment wrath through the councilors who were closely connected with the city hall. The Rose Theater, which Lord Earl values, the second female lead mysteriously disappears, and the suspect points to the group of madmen in the Broken Mask, and he should lead people into the ninth arrondissement. I just don't know where this wolf cub is hiding?"

"Don't move the people in the Secret Police Department, if you provoke those judges, the bigwigs will have a headache. The Night Watchman entered the labyrinth and walked around in circles. There are too many secrets hidden here, and everyone involved in them will be discarded after being revealed, so let's find out the puppy and send it to the Secret Police Department for them to deal with. ”

There was a moment of silence, a series of "seconding" sounds, an undercurrent surging in the depths of the shadows, and all the passages and secret rooms in the ninth section of the sewer were inspected one by one.

After agreeing on the action of the underworld, the footsteps gradually approached the shadow hand Musk hiding in the hidden place, and he gently stroked Isabelle, who was infused with snake venom and caused her body to ossify, and saw the anger and unwillingness in her eyes, as well as a trace of pity.

"I don't need your poor, stupid woman to think that I loved you so much in the first place, and thought of you as a soul mate with whom I would spend my life. I didn't expect to be betrayed by you in the blink of an eye, and I should be the one who should be angry. However, thanks to your foolishness, I was resurrected through death and gained greater power than ever before. ”

Musk scrutinized his right hand, a limb shaped from five poisonous snakes, with only basic attacks such as poison, entanglement, and pounce, but as long as he bought or stole it on the black market in the sewers, and even grabbed the eyes of a petrified lizard, and fused them with pale alchemy 'mosaic', he could make this hand sublimate again.

"I look forward to returning as Medusa! Bring my words to the old men of the Broken Masks, old things that are outdated, not knowing that as great as I am will surpass them. ”

Instead of following the Serpent's instructions to kill Isabel and seize her Shadow Shield's abilities, Musk had her act as a messenger to deliver a message back.
