Chapter 13: The End of the Lost Tower of Babel
β......β
Kahlan's expression changed from nonchalant to as cold as a dagger.
- Not only him, but I can also feel it clearly.
- Powerful magic from inside the cave.
"βwould you like to go in and have a look......?"
"Uh...... We can also choose to cross the mountains on the west side and find a way through the forest on the other side. I said, looking west.
The sun has sunk in the west, and it will not take more than 2 hours to go. The surroundings will be plunged into darkness.
- Don't be unprepared to stay alone in the wilderness of the Continent of Lanceis in the middle of the night.
I remembered the warning I had earlier in Casadis and the traveling merchant.
If we hadn't been able to cross the canyon and find a proper place to rest before sunset, we would have had to turn back to Casadis for the night, instead of camping on the battlefield where we had just fought dozens of thieves.
- The fresh air flowing from the cave shows that there must be a connection with the outside world ahead, although it is not known where it leads.
Karan waited quietly for my answer, and Charlotte on the side also stared at me with a determined gaze.
I can't help it......
I made a wry smile to the two beside me.
- So
"βLet's go. β
I reinserted the two Demon Breakers into the straps around my waist. Take out your wand from your back.
"It's worthy of Allen, he still looks blind and decisive when he is forced to be helpless. Kahlan quipped. But he was full of vigilance against the unknown cave in front of him.
"Whew. A flame ignited from the glass oil lamp around his waist.
"In the darkness, the light must not be lost. β
"Take it, don't break it like Kahlan. I handed Charlotte the oil lamp, jokingly.
β......γ Well...... Mr. Allen. Charlotte nodded slightly.
"I'm going in. I waved my hand.
"Ahh β
Under the flickering oil light, the three of them took this as a base point to move forward.
- The air inside the cave was unusually humid, and the orange dotted light only illuminated a small part of the area. Even if the front is straight or a turning point. However, there is no other way but to move forward bit by bit.
It wasn't long before a putrid stench crept into my nose.
- A rancid smell that makes stomach juices tumble.
- There is a faint sound of meat being entangled with meat, slimy.
I clenched my wand tightly. Try to keep your eyes open to get used to the dark ring mirror inside the cave as quickly as possible.
In the depths of darkness, a stone wall slowly reflected. The three of them slowly approached, and there was a surprisingly quiet around them.
- There is a corner ahead. It's different from the previous darkness. The dim light of the fire was shining behind the corner.
- At the same time, reflected on the wall.
- There is also the shadow of a man standing behind the corner.
The shadow didn't move the whole time, but kept facing or turning its back to the corner.
- Could it be that you've noticed us?
The sudden sensation in my heart made my scalp tingle, so I had to slowly squat along the stone wall. The darkness around you and the brightness in front of you create a huge visual contrast, which in turn makes the environment even darker.
I turned my head slightly, but I couldn't make out the outline of Kahlan and Charlotte's bodies. All you could see was the faint blue light from the magic crystal hanging from Kahran's body, and the faint beating oil light on Charlotte's waist. There was a deathly silence all around.
In this environment, there is nothing more frightening than not being able to see the expression of the person behind you.
Slowly cling to the rocks around the corner.
- Next, just poke your head out slightly and look at it with your eyes.
I took a deep breath and held my breath.
- Suddenly the eyes are bright. The entire cave instantly expanded several times.
Ahead was a room just big enough to fit into the cavern. The floor was littered with all sorts of leather books. Axes, daggers, knives, and potions were piled up in the corner, and a row of oil lamps was burning vigorously.
I gasped.
The "object" standing in front of it looks like it is a combination of the limbs of various animals and people.
The mutilated skin was covered with bright silk threads and steel nails. The blood-colored eyes sunken deep into what appeared to be a skull
It is wantonly chopped, separated, pasted, and fused.
- Monsters.
Specks of red light emanated from its body. The whole body is filled with the air of madness.
Kahlan crouched behind me, taking in everything I saw through the gap between me and the stone wall. A calm and thoughtful look quickly appeared on his face. At the same time, he gestured to Charlotte beside her, signaling her to see the situation she was facing.
- No, no!
A strong voice suddenly appeared in the bottom of my heart.
It's too late.
- The girl let out a sharp inhalation in fear. I pulled her back and covered her mouth tightly with one hand. Eyes fixed on her pale blue eyes that widened in horrorβtears rolling slowly.
I held Charlotte's hand tightly in an attempt to calm her down. At the same time, pray secretly in your heart. Let's hope the monster didn't notice the noise.
ββββ late.
The stone walls around him quickly shattered under the violent impact.
I looked up and saw the face of the monstrous monster - looking straight at me.
"Whoosh"
I pulled Charlotte and dodged quickly to the left. Seeing this, Karan immediately rolled to the right.
The side of the monster is unobstructed.
- It was made up of countless human bloodshot eyes
- What kind of research can make such a boring thing, it's disgusting to think about.
"βare you retreating, Alan?" Karan's loud voice suddenly came from the right.
Now that it's been discovered, there's no need to hide.
- "No, there is no need to retreat. β
- Now that it's been discovered.
"Alright, Lord Allen!" Karan laughed boldly.
"Then you're going to get onβ"
He stood up and swaggered towards the monster. Countless eyes swooped in.
The horror of the monster, which was difficult for ordinary people to observe, was dispelled by his iron will and incomparably calm intelligence.
I clenched my fists and activated the magic in my body. Slowly chanting a mixture of ice and fire destroying magic.
Kahlan galloped at the speed of a Scud, and countless limbs from the monster swooped down on him as if they were trying to capture him.
- "Smack!" He kicked several arms away with a solid thud.
Wave your arms, tear and pull off.
Foot stab the guts and bounce them off
"Oooo
"Smack!" went straight to the monster's skull. The jet-black liquid slowly flowed down from the knife edge.
The monster didn't slow down, but lunged at him even more frantically.
- "Bang" A loud collision sounded.
The monster slammed into the wall with Kahlan.
- "REF-ICED-MIXIA" has finally come to an end after a long time of chanting. The tip of the wand shook as it was filled with a lot of energy.
The next moment, I swung my rod at the lump of flesh that was swaying on the wall.
In an instant, the magic bullet formed by the fusion of ice and flame pierced through the monster's abdomen in a dazzling blue-purple light.
"Woooo Burned by demonic flames.
"Smack!"
- Kahlan thrust his blade into the monster's cracked skin, slashing from his abdomen to his chest in one go. Dragged out what was exposed inside.
ββββIt was a very thin man, encased in slime. Large, round eyes stared straight at each other.
The man's body fell to the ground, trembling all over. Fragmented reading.
Kahlan crouched down silently and grabbed the man's neck angrily.
"Desperate to break through the taboo of the Demon Path, hiding in the shadows and studying the shadowy ancient magic. You guy, do you have a problem with your brain?"
"Hush!" the man said in a tired voice, his hair down.
β
ββββWhat do aristocrats like you, who live in a privileged environment, know?"
The man shouted in a mad tremble.
ββββ "In all your relativesβwhen you are being used alive as a target for your nobles to practice the devil's way." β
"β Whoβwill come to appreciate those of us who live at the bottom?"
The man's face was twisted to the side in pain, revealing hideous vascular interfaces.
"For countless days and nights, a lonely man read these books of demons in the cave. Just to get revenge on those filthy guys one day. β
"Ahh β
"I fell in love with them. I'm heartfelt to be happy with the monsters I've created!"
"Babies and old people are fused to make a man with three brains...... What a wonderful art, ancient magic. β
The man trembled and shouted in a hysterical voice, which was especially harsh in the cave.
Now, at last, it's working. I succeeded in resurrecting the human body. A finger, a strand of hair, nails, eyeballs. Until the whole body can be resurrected!"
"Now, it's just a matter of how to recall the souls of the deadβfinallyβfinallyβ"
"The resurrection of a loved one, a supernatural miracle of antiquity!"
He smiled as if he had seen heaven.
- "Smack!!" A crisp sound sounded, and the man's face quickly became swollen.
Kahlan raised his palms and slapped him stiffly......
βββ......γ God...... You who are angry with each other and who are righteous and who are dedicated to studying these evil arts. β
ββββ "Do you really understand the true meaning of life?"
ββββ "wantonly destroying the lives of others"
ββββ" also fantasizes about resurrecting life. β
βββββ.................. No kidding!"
Now, as cold as ice, Kahlan yelled at the man curled up in his hands.
βββββ "You guy, but you're just like those aristocrats who act arbitrarily......!"
β...... ............" The man's eyes widened in shock.
- "Ahh!!!!!!h
- "βActually. To slander the art I studied so much. β
ββββ "Give me death, ahh Blood eroded by dark magic spurts out of his mouth.
"Whoa!"
The mutilated limbs piled up behind him began to slowly move, splic, and merge.
βββββ "Go-die-!"
Kahlan let go of the man and turned around, pulling out the dagger at his waist.
ββββ "Boom!"
The moment he turned around, the ground cracked, and the man was dragged in at an alarming speed, and he couldn't even pull it.
"What......!?"
The three of them ran to the edge of the cavern on the floor to inspect what seemed to lead to the dark abyss at the bottom of hell.
"Ah, is this what he is after, the miracle of resurrecting the dead......" I sighed.
"Who knows, it's just that that person, from the very beginning, understood it distorted and wrong. β
Kahlan said leisurely.
Follow the light and go deeper. A path came into view, and a fresh wind whistled in front of me.
- "It's a little cold...... I said.
Stepping out of the cave, from the other side of the mountain, I saw the lilac sky of Lances again. Countless stars appeared in the clouds in the sky at this time.
Another step into the distance. I thought to myself.
- Dreams, from the deep sleep, quietly take away the darkness in the heart.
- The wind, tell me what is happening in the distance.
- It's like reminiscing, the sadness that has been forgotten.
- A golden apple, with another falling treetop.
- It was a scenery that I had never seen before.
- That is, the only one
- the other side that life can reach.
- An ancient magic book
- Moonshine droplets
- The curtain of the night
