Chapter 22: Let's see something exciting for your physical and mental development

People who have not experienced the scourge of the dead simply cannot appreciate this terrible scene that is difficult to describe in words. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The endless hall was lit with a faint dark red magic light, making everything seem to be immersed in blood, and the smooth stone walls and the sky dome were covered with dense inscriptions, like the sky was covered with blood-red stars. Su Wen looked around, and the first thing that caught his eye was the striking altar in the center of the hall—an altar of the undead made of countless bones like a hill of white forests.

Through the extremely dim light, Su Wen saw that in the five directions of the altar platform, there were several death mages in black robes standing silently. Beside these necromancers, five strange eyeball-like devices were in operation, and smooth blood lines as thick as fists shot out of the pupils of these 'eyeballs' and converged directly above the bone altar, forming a red-black vortex as smooth as a mirror.

Just looking at this whirlpool with his eyes, Su Wen felt the strong negative aura coming from it.

This kind of negative aura is almost the same as what Su Wen encountered outside the gate, but it is dozens of times thicker, and if it weren't for Donald's clarity technique that is constantly working, Su Wen feels that his current situation will probably be very bad. At the same time, he noticed that thirteen inconspicuous black dots were slowly circling around the dark red vortex, seemingly accompanied by a faint cry of a baby.

'Resentful Baby......

Su Wen muttered to himself.

And at this moment, a thick roar exploded in Su Wen's ears.

"Roar!"

His attention immediately shifted to the direction where the sound came from, and he saw a huge four-legged monster with a silhouette like a lion and tiger slowly walking out under the bone altar of Bai Sensen. Its body is wrapped in a sticky blood film like a newborn child, and its back extends from the same blood line as on the 'eyeball' device, connected to the red-black vortex at the heights, but the difference is that this blood line seems to absorb the energy within the vortex, rather than outputting energy like those devices.

It wasn't until the beast stepped out of the altar that the blood line snapped and its movements became sharp in vain, and it rushed into the darkness of the restless atmosphere. His gaze shifted, and Su Wen soon realized that the vast expanse of darkness was the source of the agitation felt outside the door—although Su Wen could barely see anything because the light was so weak, he could still vaguely detect the outline of the monster.

Su Wen guessed that perhaps in the darkness of the hall floor, there were many monsters similar to the one just now.

And at this moment, there was a sudden muffled sound behind Su Wen.

"Bang ......"

Looking back, Su Wen found that the entrance door had slowly closed, and the group of Donald clones following behind him were long gone, but Donald himself was walking behind him unhurriedly, leisurely.

"Didn't your doppelganger come in?"

Su Wen knew that those clones didn't really disappear, but they didn't enter this gate at all.

"We're here to do business, not to be free thugs—" Donald patted Suven on the shoulder, "They're going to work, it's a commercial trade." Well, don't be too nervous, just think of this as an amusement park, you see how pretty those cute giant stitch monsters are, I want to slide down the slide over their heads, pull all the stuff out of their bellies and watch them slurry fly. ”

Donald pointed to the huge silhouettes of several mountain-like buildings in the distance, and said enthusiastically.

“...... Even if you point it to me, I can't see it. ”

Su Wen frowned and said.

"Oh, then do you need night vision services, the scenery here is unique, it's a shame to see nothing. ”

"It's better to be free, I don't want to vomit. ”

To be honest, Su Wen really didn't want to see something in the dark if he could.

But Donald doesn't seem to think so.

"Tsk, it's always time to face it, and men have to be brave—"

He snapped his fingers and said.

Before the words fell, Su Wen felt that his eyes suddenly opened up, and all the darkness in his vision disappeared in an instant, and those things hidden in the darkness were so nakedly exposed to Su Wen's eyes.

And then......

"Wow!"

In the next second, he vomited extremely happily, and the barbecue he had eaten not long ago was scattered all over the floor before he could digest it, and his throat was full of sour and bitter taste.

Even when he first stepped through the door, he had already agreed with the description of the scene of the undead scourge as 'no less than the end of the world', but it was not until he saw everything about this underground altar that he finally understood what it meant to be extremely evil and crazy - compared to the situation in his eyes, the pool of blood filled with orc corpses in the slave market not long ago was like a pure little white flower, because the bloody and filthy was beyond the limit of anything Su Wen could imagine!

Blood!

The entire floor of the altar was covered with blood, bones, and rotten flesh in the form of mud, and thousands of broken limbs could be seen everywhere. The shattered flesh was trampled by the monsters from the undead plane, and the barely lumpy pieces of limb fragments were snatched and torn by them, Su Wen didn't know how long this scene had lasted, but from the bloody sea that seemed to be a red ocean, this question made Su Wen not want to get an answer at all.

"So you see, the worst people on this continent are the lower intelligent creatures. Donald said behind Su Wen, compared to Su Wen's embarrassment, his tone was very relaxed, "I'm afraid that there are not 10,000 but 8,000 unlucky people who were stuffed into the space props and brought here to be executed, among them are sub-orcs, Naga and fishmen, Bode birdmen, and lowly rat and weasel, in this altar isolated from the outside world, no one will avenge them for turning into pulp, and no one will even remember them." As fertile ground for the undead scourge, their destiny is to provide ample soul power to the altar while also serving as a ration for these damned monsters......"

“......”

Su Wen couldn't speak, he still kept vomiting. Although the blood-stained monsters were more terrifying than any creature Su Wen had ever seen, they were nothing compared to the floor of the altar hall that was covered with mud and flesh.

As if sensing the anomaly behind him, Nikolai in front turned his head and looked at Su Wen coldly for a few seconds, but did not make any indication. And it wasn't long before he walked away as if nothing had happened.

Su Wen looked at Nikolai's distant back, and there seemed to be a little doubt and incomprehension in his eyes, as well as a little ...... Unquenchable anger?

If it weren't for the sake of benefiting from it, this hellish scene might have been avoided, right? And if the main purpose was to get rid of the pest death mages on the continent, then it could have been done before this altar was formed, before these creatures died, right? But the fact that the death mages led by Nikolai chose not to do so until now shows that in their eyes, the value of thousands of alien lives is even far lower than the harvest brought by the undead natural disaster?

Su Wen was a little cold.

This disregard for life made him very uncomfortable.

"Ahem! Don't overthink it. ”

Suddenly, Su Wen heard Donald's voice behind him.

"That's what I want you to see. Donald continued, "If I hadn't wanted you to see the Scourge with my own eyes, I could have waited until the fact to introduce you to Nikolai, and as for signing a contract with the monster, it didn't have to be here. ”

"So...... Why?"

Su Wen's brows furrowed even tighter, obviously not feeling good.

"Because you're still too sweet. ”

“......”

"People who are too sweet always die early, and the old fellows who can live to the level of a magister don't come from the wind and waves? Even if the scene is ten times more tragic than now, they won't blink twice. Donald smiled sincerely, "There's nothing wrong with seeing these things in advance that are destined to be buried in the shadows, it's a very rare opportunity." As an elder, it is important for me to tell you some life lessons - since you have decided to embark on the path of power, you need to remember that everything has a price, and the dead lives in front of you are of the less valuable kind. ”

Suvin remained silent, and Donald clearly had no intention of talking about it again.

"Let's not talk about this, next, as the audience, we can enjoy the performance of those group of necromancers. Tsk, only 20% of the pay, I didn't bother to take the initiative to help them work, Nikolai stupid* just thought he had pulled a cheap strong man, and specially recommended the guy I don't remember at all - not surprisingly, it was definitely a hard stubble, let me help clean up? ”

Hearing this, Su Wen knew that it was indeed Donald's profiteer style......

"Okay. ”

When he answered softly, Su Wen's eyes were a little red. He pressed his chest hard, leaning against the blood-colored stone wall not far from the gate—he would never take another half step forward if Donald hadn't spoken.

As for the reason?

Donald is right, looking at the dark side of the world in advance is not bad for your own growth. Su Wen did not deny this, he was just a little unhappy with Nikolai's 'seeing death and not saving' just now.

But-

The reason why Su Wen vomited and didn't want to take half a step towards that Shura field was not because he felt uncontrollable fear and nausea......

It's because he's so excited!

Yes, this excitement is like the most primitive impulse, constantly hitting every cell in Su Wen's body, so that when he instantly saw the sea of corpses and blood here under the effect of night vision, he instantly reached a high-tide feeling, and he vomited out without holding back for a while. And if he followed Nikolai to the floor of the altar hall, Su Wen even doubted that he would be completely unable to control this strange desire, and then do even stranger and terrible things......

And even so, the irrepressible excitement still made Su Wen's blood boil all over his body, and his eyes became red.

But that doesn't mean Su Wen enjoys the excitement.

On the contrary, he was scared!

To put it in layman's terms, this feeling is like obviously hating eating *, but when you encounter, you can't resist the urge to go up and taste it. Since coming to the Brilliant Continent, although his memory of his previous life has been a little blurred, he has always felt that he is a good person with normal and positive outlooks......

So, how did this bad habit of eating * come about? He can't even remember what kind of character he was in his last life, he is definitely a good person!

However, just when Su Wen was a little crazy, a sudden change occurred!

"Hmm...... I actually took the initiative to come. ”

He seemed to suddenly hear Donald's faint muttering to himself, with a smile of surprise and excitement.

And in the next moment, when Su Wen turned his head to look at Donald in surprise, he saw a sharp bone spur shoot out from behind, piercing the latter's skull in an instant......
