"Is it a different dimension?" Douglas also thought that this place would always be a gray hall, a black gate, a gray hall, a black door, and no other changes, so he was slightly stunned after seeing this wooded world.

Fernando flew in first: "It seems that in addition to the gray hall, there are many worlds similar to the alien space in the 'Gate World', I wonder if there are also intelligent beings in the Dao. ”

"I tend to be different kinds of undead, just like the ones in front of me. Douglas observed the environment and made a rough guess.

At this moment, seven headless dwarves walked up to Fernando and Douglas in gray coffins much longer than their bodies, and a dull voice came out of their bellies: "Are you princes?"

"Huh?" Douglas examined his own defenses, then looked at them inquiringly.

"A prince with a head is not a good prince, and the princess will scold us. The headless dwarf at the front said with a bulging belly.

Douglas said amusefully, "Headless?"

"There will be no worries without a head, there will be no sadness without a head, and there will be no worries about appearance without a head......" A hoarse female voice suddenly came out of the gray coffin, and the lifeless feeling around it suddenly poured in from the cracks, condensing into a black gas, and the amount of death power in it rose rapidly, and soon reached the level of legend.

With a snap, the lid of the gray coffin was lifted, and a headless woman in a pure white court dress rolled over and sat up, wearing a strange necklace made of red apples on her chest.

But if you look closely, you will see that each apple has a human face on it. They are seven gray dwarf faces and a round girl's face, which makes people shudder.

"Give me your heads, give me your heads!" the headless woman wailed bitterly, and the thick aura of death began to spread, and soul-destroying sound waves rippled out.

Fernando looked at all this with a blank face, and suddenly said, "Boring. ”

Syllable!

The sound of lightning smashing on the ground was heard! Dozens of kilometers around were shrouded in a "forest" formed by lightning, and the headless princess was reduced to ashes along with the forest!

"Headless? I think I've seen this custom. Douglas recalls an inexplicable source of familiarity, "During the development of the Solal Islands, I met several tribes of natives who believed that the human head was a symbol of life, and that if there was a head after death, it would be a disaster. So every time before the burial. The head of the deceased will be cut off and burned with flames, which is very similar to the situation just now. ”

Fernando was not involved in the development of the Solar Islands, listening to Douglas. He frowned slightly, "Could it be that we are in a dream or a fantasy?" That's why things you are familiar with evolve into all kinds of weird things?"

"I am the legendary pinnacle of the astral system. If even I can't tell the difference between dreams and illusions, it can only be the action of the God of Truth, and the 'gods' of this level do not say that there is no problem. Is it necessary to use such a roundabout approach?" said Douglas, calmly but confidently, "this is the necromantic realm, and the mapping of death-related phenomena may be unique to it, and we need to study its principles and laws. ”

A gust of wind drifted by, and a hoarse and miserable female voice suddenly sounded behind him:

"Give me your heads!

The female voice gradually changed tone, and the ashes on the ground gathered in a whirlpool, and it actually condensed again into a headless figure!

However, this time it is no longer a white court dress, but a white robe and a platinum scepter in his hand!

"This monster ......," Fernando growled in exasperation.

Douglas said with a solemn smile: "Benedict III without a head seems to be much more handsome. ”

............

In a gray wilderness dotted with tombstones.

Lucien was divided into two uses, and while taking the Rhine quickly, he analyzed the crown of the "Ancient Mummy", which seemed to have been specially handled by the Lich King, and was not as easy to crack as rough refining, and Lucien estimated that it would take at least two or three hours before there was hope.

"Wait a minute. Without warning, Rhine spoke.

Lucien stopped and let go of the arm that was holding Rhine: "Mr. Rhine, have you made a discovery?"

Rhine moved his hands and feet, and seemed to eliminate some of his weakness, and the recovery ability of the Prince of the Blood Clan was really perverted: "Have you noticed the patterns on these tombstones. ”

"The pattern of the ancient Mesh Empire. "The Mesh Kate Empire is one of the three major magic empires in ancient times, occupying the area south of the Gusta Empire, and the magic patterns that belong to it are undoubtedly one of the basic contents of the arcane, and many necromantic magic needs to use similar things, so Lucien doesn't find it strange.

Rhine leaned down, his slender fingers rubbing the simple and mysterious pattern on the gray tombstone: "This is the pattern of the early Mesh Ket Empire in ancient times, because it is not much different from the middle and late periods, and the effect is similar, so only an observer like me who delves into history can distinguish it." ”

"Is there anything special?" Lucien asked in the Psychic Connection, though he was anxious to get to the location marked by Muskelin, but Rhein was willing to waste his precious time here, and there should be a reason why it was worth it.

Rhine smiled calmly: "Looking for what was left by Maskeling is to crack the secret of the 'Gate World' and the secret of the monster, and now that we have a clue, we naturally can't let it go, we can't reverse the purpose and method." There is nothing special about these patterns, but it only indicates that the entire tombstone group belongs to the early period of the ancient Mesh Ket Empire. ”

"But this 'early days', associated with the diagonal tombstones everywhere, reminds me of the original famous custom of the Methkite Empire, the 'return of life' ritual. ”

"'Life Retribution' ritual?" Lucien remembered the most famous ritual in the history of necromancy.

Rhine elegantly took out a handkerchief and wiped his fingers: "Yes, the 'Return to the Source of Life' ceremony, the early people of the Mesh Empire generally believed that there was an extremely powerful intelligent creature in the beginning, the most perfect life, with a vast spiritual light, he used his own blood to create humans, elves, dragons and other races, so he disappeared into the long river of time. If you want to gain great power, you can reverse this process and merge the intelligent life of different races, infinitely closer to the 'primordial'. ”

"The early funerals of the ancient Methers followed this philosophy, making giants out of spiritual wood and burying them in the center of the cemetery, while each deceased left only clothes in his own grave, and his body was filled into the wooden giants, in an attempt to merge with each other after death and become a being close to the 'first'. Although this custom has since faded away. However, many of the necromantic magic still have obvious traces of inheritance, such as stitching corpses. ”

Lucien thought back to the necromantic magic he knew, and nodded slightly: "That's true, could it be that the 'someone once came in' written on the shredded paper refers to a legendary magician from the ancient Mesh Empire?"

"There is a possibility. But it's hard to imagine that such a legendary magician would set up such a large cemetery complex. That's what Lucien did after all the hard adventures he came in? You should be well aware that the Necromantic Realm is the true correspondence with the main physical realm, but the location will become confused. Extending this law to the 'Gate of the World', can we think that this is the reflection of the different death customs of the 'Gate of the World'? Rhine dropped the soft handkerchief and smashed the lid of the tomb and coffin open, and sure enough, there was only a black coat inside.

Lucien pondered for a moment: "Very logical reasoning, what does the monster represent? It can't be the fear of death in the heart of every intelligent life, right? And I prefer the mysterious existence of the necromantic realm." ”

When he said 'heart', Lucien suddenly had a stir, vaguely remembered something, but he was still almost able to see through the fog, so he frowned and thought hard, maybe it was the different surface that covered the 'appearance' of memory, so he couldn't find a similar event.

"In short, monsters are things that can be traced. Rhine smiled, "Just wait for Maskelin's relics to give us more clues." ”

Lucien sighed, "Even if I finally figured out what a monster was and how it came about, the biggest mystery for me was what kind of arcane principle it was based on. ”

"You're getting more and more of a Grand Arcanist. Rhein smirked.

Suddenly, the ground shook violently, as if some monster was about to emerge from the ground, and the tombstones collapsed one after another.

Rhine laughed and said, "It seems that the 'primordial' here has 'evolved' into a powerful undead, Lucian, it's up to you, if not, I'll lend you legendary items." ”

The aura of danger pervaded everywhere, and with a pop, the tombstones scattered, the dirt splattered, and a huge blue-black arm stretched out from the ground.

Then, a blue-black giant tens of meters tall sat up suddenly, and doubles, chest, abdomen, and head could see dense and complete intelligent life, including humans, dwarves, dragons, elves, and fishmen, all of which together formed the body of a giant.

The giant's eyes opened, dark red flames jumped, and there was a dead silence in his sight, and there was no trace of life.

Lucien took Rhine to a "precision teleportation" away from the blue-black giant, and his heart palpitated inexplicably at the lifeless dead ashes, which was the fear from the heart of every intelligent life.

"It's just a level of the first order of legends, Lucien, you can't beat this slow and unintelligent guy, right? Hey, its heart is made up of the 'Fountain of Youth', no wonder Maskeling says there are a lot of surprises here. "The Rhine's weakness has not subsided, but his vision is accurate.

"Fountain of Youth?" Lucien repeated in the Psychic Connection, this is the material that can be used to hold a legendary life-extending ritual!

"Atomic fission!"

Thundered.

A huge fireball erupted in the head of the blue-black giant, quickly covering it, destroying everything around it and tumbling into a mushroom cloud.

"Simple and crude......" Rheinland commented.

Lucien condensed the "Scepter of Time and Space" in his hand, preparing for the subsequent control, and suddenly, he remembered something: "Mr. Rhein, I have also seen similar tombstone groups and patterns in the resting place of the Lord of the Dead, does this mean that some of his hidden magic is related to the 'Original'?"

Rhein pondered for a moment: "Maybe he has refined his body into the 'Primordial Body', it seems that his true strength is stronger than his performance." (To be continued......)
