Volume 2 The Birth of the Demon King Chapter 94 Rendezvous

Although he didn't have anything to do, he knew that there was no way to back down at this time.

If Anne was really in front and in danger, how could he have escaped?

He remembered what had happened before, and on several occasions when his life was in danger, Anne had gone out of her way to save him, even using life-consuming magic.

Therefore, whether he can do it or not, he must move forward, as Anne did for him, and go with all his might.

So, he carried the wreath in his bosom, and by feeling he chose a path, the one in the middle.

It doesn't matter if you go wrong, it's a big deal to go back the way you came and choose again.

However, as soon as he took a step, he found that his foot had stepped into a ditch, and there was actually standing water in it, but it did not flow, so he didn't notice, he quickly withdrew his foot, and then walked against the wall.

The air here was visibly damp, and as he went deeper, he touched the walls, and water seeped directly from them.

And I don't know if it's an illusion, he always feels that the space around him is getting narrower and narrower.

To confirm this, he walked to a place and stretched out his arms to the sides, only to touch the walls on the left and right sides, and then he continued to walk forward to a new place and repeat the same move, but his arms could not be extended.

It stands to reason that the sewer specifications in Baifeng Town should be about the same, how can there be a situation where it is getting narrower and narrower?

With this question, he continued to move forward, and after about half an hour, he suddenly found that the surrounding area was no longer a brick wall, but like the inner wall of the cave, the dome was gone, and it was replaced by a cloud of darkness.

He heard water dripping from the top of the cave, making a tinkling sound in the stagnant water, especially in this quiet environment.

After a while, the cave also became very narrow, and it could only accommodate one person who could barely pass through, and he could only keep his body sideways, otherwise he would come into contact with the water clinging to the inner wall of the cave.

It's late autumn and the temperature is low, so it's not a good idea to get soaked in a place like this.

After walking some distance further, still not reaching the end, he couldn't help but wonder if it was really possible for Anne to come to such a place.

However, although he was skeptical, he had a hunch that he would find something if he continued to walk, and the sudden sound of a small voice seemed to confirm this.

Because the sound was so subtle, and because there were constant droplets of water dripping around him, he couldn't tell what it was.

Driven by curiosity, he chose to keep going, and the voice grew louder and louder.

Gradually, he finally heard that it seemed to be the sound of a waterfall, but it was strange, how could there be a waterfall in the depths of such a narrow cave?

Now he was even more curious, no matter what, he wanted to see what was going on.

So, after more than half an hour of difficult walking, the sound of the waterfall in his ears became deafening, which was even more unlikely to be an illusion.

Eventually, he reached the deepest part of the cavern, and by the light of the crystal ball, he could see a huge waterfall swooping down from above.

However, he also noticed that the water from the waterfall did not flow into the cave, but fell deeper.

That is, the water of the waterfall flows into an abyss from a higher place, and this narrow cave where he is located is only on the inner wall of the edge of the abyss.

There was a shallow layer of stagnant water beneath his feet, but it was only seeping from the damp cavern, and he guessed that if there had been more water in the previous sewer, it would have flowed here and into the bottom of the abyss.

"What the hell is this place?" The emir muttered quietly.

Then, he took a crystal ball and looked around, and found a path on the left side of the cave, which was actually a staircase made of square long stones, a meter wide, clinging to the inner wall of the abyss, spiraling upwards.

It was clearly a sign of human construction, and whatever the purpose of the construction, the emir knew that if he followed the staircase, he might be able to get out.

Because of the water splashing from the waterfall around it, the stairs are covered with moss and must have been slippery.

He was hesitant to go up, for if he stumbled, he would be dead, and he wasn't sure if Anne had gone down the stairs.

As he was undecided, he found a familiar object, a wand of dead wood, which had been thrown haphazardly on the stairs.

He recognized it at a glance, this was the wand that Anne usually used, what kind of situation did he encounter to lose the wand he was carrying?

It's obviously not carefully placed here, but more like it fell here.

Emile glanced overhead, and in that thick darkness, I don't know how high, he faintly saw a glimmer of light.

To figure out what it was, he covered the crystal ball with his clothes and looked up, but the moment he saw the object, he couldn't help but hold his breath.

Because it was a large building, I don't know what force was used, but it actually floated there, and a soft light emanated from it, presumably this staircase should lead to that building.

Along the way, he found Anne's wreath and wand, and now there was a staircase leading to the strange building, and he had to believe that Anne was here, which strengthened his determination to climb up and find out.

However, the first foot he stepped on began to slip, which made him suddenly break out in a cold sweat and he felt a double blow.

"Tsk, am I really useless?"

He was angry at his powerlessness, but giving up in the face of difficulties was never his style, he looked at the wand in his hand and suddenly an idea came to mind.

He rubbed the moss off the stairs with the end of his wand, and then stepped on it, and sure enough, it wasn't slippery, and although it took him a few minutes to clean the moss with each step he climbed, he was at least able to get closer to the building.

These stairs are steeper than the stone steps leading to the hilltop castle in White Peaks, and although the number of stairs is not too many, there are still hundreds.

However, he thought that Anne was even willing to consume his own life in order to save him, so what was it for him to climb hundreds of steps for Anne?

So, under this self-motivation, he climbed up step by step, and gradually reached the point of selflessness like casting a sword.

After about a few hours, because he was counting while climbing, he clearly remembered that he had climbed more than two hundred steps, about half of the way.

“…… Alas. ”

At this time, he was so tired that he couldn't climb, so he simply sat down directly after cleaning up the first step of the ladder, leaning his back against the inner wall of the abyss next to him.

His hands were so sore that he couldn't even hold his wand and crystal ball, so he had to put them beside him.

However, the crystal ball could not be held steady on the slippery staircase, and rolled directly towards the edge of the staircase, and the emir screamed that it was not good, and quickly reached out to stop it, but he was too tired to lift his arm for a while, and finally could only watch the only lighting tool disappear into the abyss.

At this moment, there was only a darkness around him, except for the shimmering building above his head, as if there was only that thing left in his world.

"Damn, if only I could do magic, no, not so much better than that, alas."

Emil was annoyed, and he regretted that he had not followed Ophelia's advice and exercised properly.

After that, he sat there for a moment, and suddenly remembered something.

"Oops, I'm so stupid."

Emir scolded secretly, and then showed a helpless smile, this abyss is very spacious, estimated to be sixty or seventy meters in diameter, such a huge space is more than enough to accommodate a dragon, he can completely call Lilith over and carry him to fly up.

But after he left Blackpool Town, he seemed to have left Lilith behind, and he couldn't help but feel guilty that he was so incompetent as Lilith's master.

Although Lilith was dozens of kilometers away in the town of Blackpool, Emir knew how to summon her, and he glanced at the bottomless abyss in front of him and decided to jump in.

According to the contract, when Emir's life is threatened, Lilith will teleport to him and rescue him.

The Emir believes in the power of the contract, after all, it has been used many times in battle before, so this time it should be the same.

So, he closed his eyes and jumped forward.

"Hey, Emir, what are you doing?"

In the darkness, a hand suddenly stretched out and grabbed him, and the force of that hand was so great that it directly caused the emir's body to hang in the air.

He hurriedly opened his eyes, but only saw the bottomless darkness in front of him, and a bad chill suddenly crept all over his body.

However, fortunately, the hand used another force to lift him up.

"Okay, what are you doing to commit suicide." A woman's voice rang out.

Only then did the emir react, what he said just now was also said by a woman, but it was obviously not this person, and it sounded familiar.

When I looked back, I realized that it was Ophelia, who pulled Emile up, and the other woman, illuminated by the crystal ball in Ophelia's hand, could be seen to be Melissa.

"Huh? Why are you here? The emir was dumbfounded.

"Of course, like you, I can't find my way back, but if we hadn't been here in time, I'm afraid you'd have fallen into meat sauce," Ophelia said hatefully, "So, why can't you think about it?" Even if you're too tired, you won't be able to do it. ”

"No, no, no, you're mistaken, I'm summoning Lilith." The emir hastened to explain.

"Lilith?" Melissa was puzzled.

"Oh, it's a dragon with whom I have a contract, and I want to use her power to fly up, but only if my life is in danger."

"Hey, there is still such an operation?" Melissa's eyes widened, and she thought it was incredible.

"I see," Ophelia nodded, and then added, "but what are you doing up there?" Is there something on this? ”

Hearing her say this, the emir immediately smiled mysteriously and then proposed.

"You cover the crystal ball and try to look up again."

Ophelia did so, and her expression was as shocked as Emir had been before.

"This ...... How is this possible! She muttered under her breath.

"How is it possible?" Melissa didn't know what to do, so she looked up and was stunned.

"Hey, how's it going? Isn't it quite shocking? The emile smirked, seemingly proud that he had been the first to discover the building.

"No, it's fear, you don't understand what that place symbolizes." Ophelia said with a cold face.

“…… Yes? ”

"Tsk, I really didn't expect that thing to be a legend." Melissa couldn't help but sigh as well.

"Uh, what the hell is going on?" The emir was completely confused.
