416. The Scarlet Gate
"The laws of this world are not friendly to the undead, and I think it's time for us to get out of here and go where we need to go."
Derek. Count Fornak touched Howl's head and bowed his head to him.
Hal who entered the soul state just looked at Count Fornak with a blank expression, and he only had the primary wisdom for the time being, and he had not yet fully opened his mind, so he could only feel Count Fornack's full of fatherly love, but he couldn't understand what he was saying at all.
Count Fornak looked at Surdak again and said to him, "Before I leave, I have one more request, I hope you will do me a favor!" ”
"You say!" Surdak said.
He readily agreed, for he felt that Count Fornak would not be able to ask for something difficult to do, and it was hard for Surdak to refuse the request made to him by such a great father.
Count Fornak glanced at the torch of holy light in Surdak's hand, and solemnly pleaded to Surdak: "You have the power of holy light, holy light can purify all unclean things, he still has the last bit of body in this manor, it is full of demonic runes, I want you to purify the part of his demonized body, so that he can be free from this world, and he does not have to be trapped in this castle all the time." ”
"I'll do my best!" Surdak said, getting up from the couch.
"Then please follow me." Count Fornack's body floated through the air, and little Hal obediently followed him, and the two ghosts took the lead in the direction of the basement of the manor.
Surdak and Karl followed, along the side passage of the dining room, past the kitchen and storage room, and re-entered the basement, where the animal pen at the entrance no longer had the eerie atmosphere it had before.
Count Fornak did not forget to introduce Surdak and Karl to say: "They once raised more than a dozen hellhounds here, but those hellhounds did not survive much in the end because of the influence of the power of the laws of the world, and their abilities also declined, and when they left the manor, they took all the few hellhounds with them. ”
In fact, just outside the hall, Captain Miluo stabbed a surviving hellhound.
Count Fornak looked at the rows of iron bars at the entrance to the basement and introduced Surdak and Karl: "Among those people is a magical biologist, he has been trying to transfer the bloodline of Hellhounds to the local endemic forest gray wolves, and breed a large number of Hellhounds that can adapt to the Roland Continent, but his experiments on the side of Fornak Manor have not been successful. ”
Walking past the iron fence, Count Fornak added in a deep voice: "These guys have sold themselves to demons in order to gain greater power. ”
When passing through the hall, Surdak raised the torch of holy light in his hand again, and saw the magic array painted on the ground again, Surdak didn't expect that these magic metal runes on the ground were actually mixed with the blood of Xiao Hal, although this magic array had been completely destroyed, but it still made Surdak feel very uncomfortable.
The group came to the test bench, and little Hal . Suddenly, as if attracted by something, Fornak flew directly past Count Fornak to the cage next to the test bed, his spirit hovering over the cage, his hands made wings outstretched, looking like a bird about to fly, constantly rotating around the cage.
The cage covered with thistles contained the bones of a little boy, the corpse had been in the cage for a long time, so long that the boy's corpse had turned into a dry corpse with tattered skin, most of the yellow hair on the scalp had fallen off, revealing the skull inside, only two black holes were left in the eye sockets, and the lips had inexplicably disappeared, revealing a piece of eerie teeth, and some black magic lines could still be seen on the remaining epidermis on the boy's bones, but the ink had become less clear.
Without waiting for Count Fornak to prompt, Surdak had already stepped up and exploded the chain on the small door of the iron cage, and the torch of holy light in his hand fell on the iron cage, and suddenly the flame of holy light on the torch was blazing, and there seemed to be a trace of black magic on the cage, which was instantly ignited by the flame of holy light, and the entire cage burned under the flame of holy light, and the bones of the boy in the cage also burst out of high white flames.
The sacred flames quickly reduced the boy's bones to a pile of white ashes.
A trace of soul breath from the bound body constantly floating in the air of Xiao Hal, converging in Xiao Hal's spirit body, making his already vague soul body clear, and even the laughter of Xiao Hal's silver bell came from above the iron cage, and his empty eyes seemed to have a trace of aura.
Old Count Fornak looked at his little son with satisfaction, stood next to him and beckoned to him, little Hal seemed to feel his father's call, and ran to his father's side without hesitation, and at this time the soul body of the old Count Fornak also emitted a strange light, and in front of the two of them, a blood-colored gate suddenly appeared, and the gate was engraved with countless flowers competing to open, and the flowers were covered with endless bones, the sky was cloudy, and the vast land in the distance was full of skeletons, zombies, ghosts, and witches, Bone dragons and other undead creatures.
Old Funa took little Hal's hand, and with the other hand held the Blood Stone aloft aloft in the other, and slowly walked towards the gate.
When he walked to the gate, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and took out a fingerbone-like thing from his body and threw it to Surdak, and said to Surdak with a smile: "I almost forgot to leave this thing to you, every time I blow this bone whistle, you can summon me out of the underworld, maybe you have something to worry about, or when you feel lonely when you drink afternoon tea alone, you can send me a message, but due to the influence of the power of the laws of the world, I can probably only stay for a cup of tea." ”
Surdak clutched the bone whistle in his hand and looked at the old Count Fornak with a bewildered expression.
At this moment, Old Fornak had already pushed the blood-colored door open a crack with one hand, only to feel that the rich dead air was surging out of the door, and the yin wind swept through the wailing sound that almost made people's souls tremble, and from the door there were constantly some skeleton arms climbing on the door, as if they wanted to get out of the door, but these arms would turn into a white flame and burn on their own as soon as they stretched out from the door.
Old Fornak stopped being wordy, and led little Hal into the blood-colored gate, and then the blood-colored gate, which only opened a gap, slammed shut tightly, and quickly disappeared in front of Surdak and Karl.
Only Surdak and Karl were left standing in front of the test bench, but they didn't expect the old Count Fornak to walk so simply.
Surdak glanced down at the phalanges in his palms, and felt a little sick to his stomach at the thought that he was going to take this finger bone in his mouth and blow it in the future.
Do you want to set up a delicate afternoon tea in the courtyard in the future, and then blow the bone whistle and chat with a high-level ghost or something? Thinking of this, Surdak couldn't help but feel a little creepy, so he put the bone whistle in his magic waist bag.
Carl was almost recovering, and the two of them discussed going outside the manor to find the whereabouts of the other two members of Team One.
As soon as he walked out of the hall of the main building, there were still the corpses of three members of the first team including Miluo lying on the steps, and he saw a tall figure walking over the gate, carrying a blood-red demon corpse on his shoulder, that tall figure was clearly Captain Sauron, he was wearing an extremely delicate magic pattern structure, and there was a surging fighting spirit outside his body, but it seemed that every step was quite difficult, and it looked like he should have been injured a lot.
He looked at Surdak and Karl on the steps with a wry smile, walked up to the two of them without a sound, threw the demon corpse covered in black magic patterns on the steps, and then sat on the bloodstained stone pedestal without any image, tilted his head and said apologetically to the two subordinates: "Sorry, I'm late!" ”
Karl shook his head, who would have thought that a seemingly simple evil spirit incident would have so many changes, and it also involved two magicians from the Dark Arts Hermitage Society, I knew that this was the case, I should have invited the law enforcement team of the Magic Union to come over, and to be able to have the current situation, I can only say that the living people are lucky enough.
Surdak unleashed a collection of magic flares into the sky, hoping that the members of the first team patrolling outside would be lucky enough to survive.
Carl sat silently beside Captain Sauron, he saw a very exaggerated depression in Captain Sauron's right shoulder, it seemed that the bone should be broken, which made one of his arms completely incapacitated, but as long as there was a lot of endurance, it could make his face appear so calm, Carl pointed to the demon corpse on the ground, and asked Captain Sauron, "What is this?" ”
"It's a dark binder, and I almost died at the hands of this guy." Captain Sauron said with a gloomy face, his voice filled with exhaustion and irrepressible pain.
Surdak walked briskly up the steps and began to help Carl with the wound on Captain Sauron's shoulder.
Captain Sauron's shoulder seemed to have been smashed by a sledgehammer, and his skin became bloody and blurry, and Surdaq didn't dare to feed Captain Sauron's bones casually outside, so he could only continuously inject the power of holy light into the wound to alleviate Captain Sauron's injuries.
Captain Sauron endured the pain and asked the two, "It looks like you've encountered some terrifying monsters too, why is there a trail of fireballs everywhere in the courtyard?" ”
Seeing that he was clumsy and couldn't help at all, Karl simply stopped and told Captain Sauron what happened after the team entered the manor: "Captain, you may not believe ...... when you say it."
“……”
After listening to Karl's narration, Captain Sauron looked at the two people speechlessly, he didn't expect that the battle in the manor was far beyond his imagination, originally he thought that these knights died at the hands of evil spirits, but he didn't expect that the Black Arts Retreat was involved, he sighed and asked, "So...... Derek. Fornak has already left? ”
Carl nodded.
Captain Sauron struggled to his feet from the statue and commanded the two, "We must now rush back to the city of Highlandsa at once. Catch Fornak before he escapes, and this guy should be guillotined! ”
