Chapter 142: Strange Red Crystals
When he first saw the red crystal, Benjamin didn't feel right. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Inside this unusually large cavern, there was nothing but red crystals. There are no raised stone pillars, no hanging stalactites, the floor is smooth, and the ceiling is regular...... Everything here bears a strong artificial trail, not at all like a naturally formed cave.
And that crystal happened to be placed in the center of the entire cave hall, and it was placed so well that it was obviously deliberately placed there.
What is this?
Benjamin also knew that this was the place where the "soul flame" was hidden. Looking at the red crystal, it is somewhat similar to the fire element crystal, but it feels different, and it is likely to be something left by the mage's predecessor.
But...... Michelle must have been here before.
The remnants of the "Soul Flame", this is what she has always been thinking about. Although Benjamin does not know how Michelle died, her undead spirit also said when she cast the curse that she had been retained.
And what is this strange red crystal?
Thinking of this, Benjamin probed around again. Strangely, he didn't see any other exit from the cave hall other than the way he had entered.
Is this a dead end?
No way......
After thinking about it, Benjamin felt that the problem was probably still with the red crystal. Therefore, he first approached, leaned over, and looked twice, but he didn't see anything special, but his body suddenly felt warm.
"Is it because of the fire elemental......" he muttered to himself.
It's a pity that his mental power is damaged, otherwise he can use the water elemental induction method to sense what is so special about this red crystal.
What to do?
Because of Michelle's unexpected death, Benjamin had a bad premonition in his heart. After all, a good person will never say that he will die, there must be a reason.
I don't know why, but after coming here, he suddenly felt that Michelle's death had something to do with this thing.
Because of this, he had to act a little more cautiously.
He circled around the red crystal twice, but found nothing. Then, suddenly, he turned around and began to walk around the entire cavern, observing everything that was possible around him through the faint glow of light coming from overhead.
It felt like he was playing an escape room, and he was inexplicably locked in a room, and then let him rummage around here, and finally tried his best to make up a multi-digit password.
However, other people's escape rooms will give some clues, and they can also know how many digits the password they want to get. But right now, this cave hall is really bare, except for the moss on the top of the head, which is the red crystal in the center, other than that, it is really clean and abnormal.
He can't decipher the color distribution of those mosses, right?
It took him nearly an hour to search through the entire cave hall. When he found nothing, he had to go back to the red crystal.
After thinking about it, he reached out and picked up the crystal.
Nothing happened.
Benjamin felt a little weird. He also thought that the crystal would have some kind of mechanism attached to it, and that if he picked it up, the cave would collapse, or a door would be opened. As a result, he took this thing in his hand and threw it left and right, but there was no movement in the entire cave hall.
"Hey, come and see, isn't this weird?" he said to the system.
Surprisingly, the system, which has always been chattering, has no response at the moment. Benjamin's mind was quiet, eerily quiet.
He suddenly felt a little frightened.
What's the situation?
"Is it dead? If it doesn't crash, don't grind. So he urged again in his heart.
"Warning, warning!" Finally, the system's voice rang out, but the mechanical tone was very different from usual, "Fire elemental anomaly detected, please quickly stay away from high-risk items, otherwise your life will be in danger!"
...... Fire Elemental Anomaly?
Hearing this, Benjamin was stunned, and then looked at the red crystal in his hand.
To be honest, he didn't feel anything unusual just holding this thing in his hand. At most, there is a warm feeling in the body, not to mention any life-threatening danger.
However, the system said so, and out of caution, he decided to put the crystal back.
He crouched down and put the crystal back in its original position. However, the strange thing is that when he let go of his hand, the red crystal seemed to be stuck to his palm and could not be put back.
This......
Benjamin looked stunned.
At that moment, he suddenly felt that the warm feeling in his body seemed to be magnified several times, and it flowed rapidly in his veins. Suddenly, his pale face turned red, and the blood vessels on the back of his hand also burst out at once, looking hideous and terrifying.
He didn't know what was going on, and he felt like he was going to be cooked. A strong burning sensation rose from his chest and instantly spread throughout his body.
It's hot...... What's going on?
"Warning! Warning, fire elemental anomaly detected, please quickly stay away from ......" The system's voice sounded in his head again, becoming more and more urgent, repeating the words over and over again.
Benjamin was eager to scold.
Damn it...... He wants to stay away, too!
Shocked, Benjamin could only wave his right hand desperately, trying to throw the red crystal out. However, no matter how hard he tried, the crystals seemed to grow into his flesh, and he couldn't shake them off.
Looking at his increasingly red skin, like a boiled lobster, Benjamin's eyes were a little red.
W-What the hell is this?
However, it all seems to be just the beginning. In a panic, he suddenly noticed that little by little blood was oozing from the back of his hand.
Stunned, he looked at his other hand, and so did his other. More than just his hands, he wiped his face with the clothes on his shoulders, only to find that the blood oozing from his face was enough to stain his clothes red.
Soon, without moving, he found himself bleeding from top to bottom. In a few moments, the beads of blood stained his clothes and pants completely red—he was on the verge of becoming a bloody man.
Groove ......
Benjamin was terrified.
He didn't know what it was all about, but he knew that if he didn't do something about it, the blood in his body would soon run out - he would be a dried corpse.
Yarn!
He didn't want to be killed by a strange red stone and just turn into a dried corpse.
What to do?
At that moment, countless crazy thoughts flashed through his mind.
Otherwise...... Just cut off this hand?
Besides, even if he had a knife, there was nothing that could stop the bleeding, and if he cut off his hand, he would have died of excessive bleeding.
But...... If he didn't cut off his hands, what else could he do to get rid of this ghost thing that looked like an elemental crystal, but was a hundred times more dangerous than an elemental crystal?
At this moment, Benjamin's intestines are about to repent.
, why the hell did he pick this thing up!
No, no, no...... Calm down, there must be another way. He managed to escape from the pursuit of the church, how could he die silently in this hellish place?
Suddenly, it was as if a bolt of lightning struck Benjamin.
Elemental crystallization......
That's right!
He suddenly remembered that before, he had brought the water elemental crystallization into the consciousness space. The thing in his hand now is very similar to the elemental crystal. If he could bring it into the consciousness space, would he be able to stop this strange state of bleeding?
However, the exclusivity of the space of consciousness is so strong......
No matter what! The blood is about to run out, how can there be so much care? At that moment, Benjamin's heart was crossed, and he entered the state of stepping into the consciousness space with half of his feet and half of his feet remaining in reality, and then let his spiritual power be aimed at the red crystal in his hand.
With a whoosh, the crystals vanished.
Benjamin was stunned, and the ease of the process made him a little incredulous. However, he could feel the change in himself deeply - the burning sensation in his body quickly subsided, and the reddened skin gradually returned to its original state, and there were no more blood beads seeping out through the pores......
Actually...... And so successful?
Call......
Benjamin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
If you want to bring something to the consciousness space, the conditions are actually very harsh. He had experimented before, and only pure elemental bodies could be brought in, ignoring everything else.
He didn't expect that his desperate move to go to the doctor would be successful.
Thinking so, Benjamin stretched out his hand and wiped something on his face that he didn't know if it was blood or sweat, feeling a sense of luck for the rest of his life.
However......
Before Benjamin could breathe a sigh of relief, the mechanical sound of the system sounded again.
"Warning! Warning! Detection of water element abnormality, please quickly stay away from high-risk items, otherwise it will be life-threatening ......"
