185: Soul Candle
Margaret took the compass parts she had just taken off and went back to the altar, and when Roshi saw this, she hurriedly chased after Margaret who was about to put the compass parts back, and then took out the black magic pearl that she had obtained from the mermaid clan from the space equipment.
"Put away the compass parts, let's try this here. ”
Although the material composition of the Black Devil Pattern Pearl is different from that of the Magic Gem, the basic function is the same, and the energy intensity of this Black Devil Pattern Pearl is not much different from that of a high-grade Magic Gem.
In the center of this pillar is a magic array, after the black pearl is put up, under the guidance of the magic array, the energy in the pearl is quickly released outward, and soon flows down the magic circuit, and the soul fires in the skulls under the altar are also extinguished one after another, like suppressed ghosts.
"Bang!"
With a bang, the wall of fire that had originally stood at the entrance of the cave was also extinguished, revealing the secluded entrance behind it.
Roshi summoned a snowman again to be the vanguard, but the strange thing is that as soon as the snowman walked into this cave, he automatically lost contact with Roshi, and it should be that there is some material existence behind the cave that can affect the soul.
"If only the slaves had been brought down," said Sliler with some regret.
"Don't think about it!" Margaret said lightly: "His spell is to use magic power to simulate the soul, and even the soul of the wizard will be disturbed, and ordinary people will long disappear when they enter." ”
As she spoke, she chanted a spell and took out a slender white candle from the space bracelet, a bit like Roshi's Yuri candle, with a silver candlestick underneath.
Margaret lit the candle, which lit a white flame with a faint glow that lit only a distance of about a foot around her.
"This is the Soul Suppression Candle, in the candlelight, even a wizard's spiritual attack is unlikely to hurt a bit, you just follow me. ”
The two gathered around Margaret and followed her into the black hole.
The black hole is very short, only a few hundred meters in appearance, but after coming out of the hole, the scenery outside is unexpected by Roshi, there is no cave in this mausoleum.
It was a mountain cliff with a bottomless abyss below it, filled with a thick mist, less than a hundred meters as far as the eye could see.
A wooden suspension bridge stood lonely on the edge of the cliff, and Roshi obviously couldn't feel the wind, but the suspension bridge naturally swayed slightly in the air in an arc, squeaking, squeaking, as if something invisible was pushing.
"Haha, hee-hee!" suddenly came a burst of laughter, in this empty cavern, the voice sounded surprisingly hollow, obviously laughing, but there was no joy in it.
The white mist that was drifting in the cliff suddenly turned into a beautiful woman, floating naked on both sides of the suspension bridge, gently pushing the suspension bridge.
One of the women looked over and met Roshi's gaze, a gentle smile on the corner of her mouth, and beckoned to Roshi, motioning for him to come over.
Roshi didn't move, she let go of the drawbridge and floated towards Roshi, like an angel descending from the sky, throwing herself into her arms to mortals.
When she came to about ten meters away from Luo Xi, her speed suddenly increased, and her original angelic face was suddenly distorted, turning into a hideous face, and she suddenly raised her hands, and sharp nails appeared from her fingertips and grabbed Luo Xi.
Roshi reflexively wanted to retreat, but was grabbed by Margaret behind her, and she stepped forward and raised the candle in her hand.
"Whew!"
When the sharp nails touched the light of the candle, there was a crisp sound, and a cloud of gray smoke rose from the place where the two touched, as if something had been burned, and the female ghost who rushed forward let out a silent wail, and immediately paused, hovering beyond the firelight, and glanced at Margaret viciously.
"Why are you trying to bite me?" Margaret raised her chin and smiled coldly at the female ghost.
The female ghost gave Margaret a deep look again, then turned and floated away to the other side of the cliff, and soon dissipated into nothingness with a bang.
"Thank you. Roshi thanked Margaret.
"Excuse me!" Margaret shook her head, and then she frowned and said, "Remember, follow me, these should be revenant spirits, I don't know who the wizards here are, but they can refine such vicious things!"
"Vicious?" Roshi was stunned
"Yes!" Margaret nodded: "I have read in the book that the refining of the soul of the dead soul is to remove the spinal cord of a human being, paralyze him, and then connect his tactile nerves so that he can feel the touch but cannot move, and then wrap it with a bandage soaked in the water of life to maintain his life, and then put it into a soul wolf, leaving only the mouth and nose, and finally fill it with itchy powder. Specially concocted potions containing high elements such as flame stones make people suffer until a few decades later when human life is exhausted and they die a normal death, at which time the soul born has a very strong resentment that even ordinary apprentices cannot resist. ”
Luo Xi's eyelids jumped unconsciously, this kind of method makes people feel chills in the bottom of their hearts just listening to it, Luo Xi thinks that it will not be a psychological burden to kill a person or even a group of people, but he can't torture people to death in this extreme way.
"Alright, let's go over, remember to follow me. Margaret reminded again.
The three of them continued to walk forward, and there was a half-broken stone tablet on the edge of the cliff, with two words engraved on the tablet, which looked like it had been some years, and Luo Xi recognized it for a while before he could see that it was written as Broken Soul.
"Crunch, crunch!"
The crunch of boots on the rotten wooden plank, and with each foot, one can't help but wonder if the plank will be broken, just thinking about getting to the end as soon as possible.
But this seemingly ordinary suspension bridge is incredibly long, and it seriously violates the common sense of physics.
After walking for half an hour, what was in front of Roshi's eyes was still an indelible fog, and under the bridge was still an eternal and boundless abyss, as if it would never end.
The atmosphere began to become a little oppressive, and Margaret, who had occasionally spoken two words of contempt and ridicule at the decay of the drawbridge and the ghosts here, stopped talking.
After walking for a while, Roshi suddenly felt Margaret's breathing a little shorter, glanced to the side, and unexpectedly found that her forehead was even a little more sweaty, and her little face was solemn.
"What? do you still have a drawbridge phobia?" Roshi teased, trying to liven up the atmosphere, which also made him uncomfortable.
In the past, Margaret would always fight back at Roshi with the fastest speed and sharpest language, but at this time she was slow to speak.
After waiting for a long time, she suddenly said, "Soul Suppression Candle... It's almost burned out..."
