Volume 3 The Shadow of Uxir Chapter 221 The Frozen Gate

After stepping into Hercules' body, Emir had a strange feeling, as if the whole world had fallen silent.

But he didn't think too much about it, he just thought that the sound insulation was very good.

It was pitch black, and Emir had to take out the crystal ball he had borrowed from Ophelia, but for some reason, the brightness emitted by the crystal ball could only allow him to see a meter or so around him.

"Is the magic of the crystal ball insufficient?" The emir couldn't help but wonder.

He wanted to inject some more mana, but he thought that it wasn't too big here, so it was better to save his mana for battle.

As he went deeper, the temperature dropped significantly, until the emir came to a tall, narrow door.

He noticed that the door was covered in a layer of frost, and he felt cold just by getting closer.

He couldn't help but wonder, is it cold and snowy behind this? Shouldn't Cones have frozen to death long ago if he stayed in such a cold place?

However, he thought that since Cornes was a demon, he should have enough cold resistance.

"That's great, I also want a physique that is not afraid of the cold."

Thinking so, Emir put his hand on the door, and then a cold that penetrated deep into his bone marrow instantly swept through his body, making him shiver.

“…… What's going on? ”

The Emir withdrew his hand in disbelief, and at this point he had reason to suspect that Hercules had stopped acting because Cornes had frozen to death.

But this was only speculation after all, although the cold was no longer something that the living body could bear, but no matter what, he had to open the door to confirm the situation inside.

He stood there and thought for a moment, then pulled out a punched sword from the magic ring and pressed the tip of the sword against the door.

However, the next scene couldn't help but surprise him, only to see that the thin layer of frost quickly spread to the blade, and only a few seconds later, the entire sword body was frozen full of cracks.

The emir was well aware that the quality of the sword was not bad, but in front of this door, it could not hold even for a few seconds.

The Emir was not going to give up here, and if Cornes could get in, he would certainly be able to do it.

So, with this unyielding spirit, the emir took out everything he could use, but the result was no suspense, and it was all scrapped in a matter of seconds.

In desperation, he could only use his magic to slam the door open with the faint force of the impact.

However, before he could release it, a familiar voice came from outside, and he knew that it was Lilith who came.

It's just that the hole is too small, so she can only talk outside.

"Emir, are you in there? Do you want me to help? ”

The emir glanced at the door in front of him again, and suddenly thought of a way, since this door was covered with a layer of frost, then it would be enough to roast it with flames.

So, he hurried out and made Lilith spit out a dragon's breath into the hole.

However, when he went out and saw the scene outside, he was stunned for a moment.

It turned out that the world outside the corridor had turned into a land of ice and snow at some point, and the king in the distance had disappeared without a trace, and he looked around again, and found that he was not in Hercules's body, but in a cave.

The edge of the cave was covered with icicles, and a cold wind blew, and several sharp icicles fell, and if the emir hadn't stepped back in time, his body might have been pierced.

After a while, he was still confused about his situation, but it was only ethereal when Lilith's voice came again.

“…… Why don't you speak, Emir, really, I've been calling you for a long time, at least give me a letter. ”

Lilith could not help but be a little impatient when she received no answer for a long time, and after hearing this, Emir realized that she had been teleported to another place.

And the only one who can take the opportunity to release the teleportation magic is Cornes.

However, it occurred to him that since he could still hear Lilith's voice, it meant that the place where he was teleported was not far from his original location, at least not more than a hundred meters.

But looking at the heavy snow and the endless snowfield in front of him, the emir couldn't believe that this was the grassland outside the royal capital, so there was only one answer.

"Alternate space?"

It was only after thinking of this possibility that the emir really fell into fear, because he would probably be trapped here.

Then, dejected, he returned to the depths of the cave, which was at least warmer than outside.

When he returned to the door, he found a tall figure standing there, and when he walked in, he recognized it as Cornes in the form of the Dark Knight.

"You bastard, why did you bring me here!"

Emir was furious and decided to rush to fight him to the death.

The distance between the two sides grew closer, and it was not until they were about two meters apart that Cornes raised his magic sword and pointed it at the emir.

"You should be honored," his expression was indifferent, as if he had seen through something, "to have pushed me to this point, do you know what the price of using this alien space is?" ”

"What do I care you are? Anyway, as long as I kill you, I can go back, let me die! Without saying a word, the emir unleashed a large number of magic missiles.

In the end, they all hit, and now that the dense attacks are not at all, Cornes can't dodge them at all, and the Emir can't help but be complacent.

But as the explosion subsided, Cones's tall body stood still in place, unscathed.

The scene of "......" once again shocked the emir.

"It's useless, I'm already dead," Cornes smiled slightly, and then explained, "Because the price of this move is my soul, and because of this, my body didn't explode, so you don't have to worry about your friends." ”

"A fool will believe you."

"Hehe, believe it or not, anyway, things have come to this point, and even I have to be impressed with you, so this is the biggest gift to you, enjoy the thick burial I gave you."

“……”

The emir stared at him through gritted teeth, and after he finished speaking, his body disappeared like a gust of wind.

Leaving only the sound of the wind creeping in, and the frost that gradually spread from the door, the Emir could only slowly retreat towards the entrance of the cave, and the cold behind him was even more bone-chilling.

"Damn, if only my magic attribute was fire."

The emir didn't want to throw in the towel, but he really couldn't think of a way.

He knew it was a matter of life and death, and maybe Lilith would soon teleport here and get him out.

But he couldn't help but fall into suspicion, even if Lilith came in, they could only be trapped here together in the end.

"By the way, I can teleport out."

It occurred to the Emir that there were so many markings made outside, and any one of them would get him out of here.

So, he didn't even use a small piece of paper, and directly drew a magic array himself.

This is his last chance, and if he can't do it, then he's really in despair.

Then, with the infusion of mana, the magic array on the ground began to emit a pale blue light, although it was faint, but it was clear that it was a sign of a successful release.

At the same time, Emir mentally imagined the location of the target so that he could teleport more accurately, but after a minute passed, he opened his eyes and found himself still standing in the cave, the chill looming around his body so real.

"Hehe, sure enough, I'm thinking too much."

When all was lost, the emir couldn't help but laugh.

He had thought that he might die in a battle, after all, as Lilith said, he would always provoke some tricky enemies, and maybe one day he would meet enemies that he couldn't deal with.

However, when this day came, he still didn't expect that he would be trapped in this alien space.

After being mentally prepared to die, he simply sat on the ground, wanting to be frozen and unconscious as soon as possible.

As consciousness faded away, a familiar voice came again, and Emir knew it was Lilith who had been teleported in.

This made him feel sad, it didn't matter if he died, he was just not worth it for Lilith, and he would die with a human like him.

Emir was secretly saddened, but in the next second, he was picked up by a huge dragon claw, followed by a scolding from Lilith.

"Emir, are you stupid to be frozen, sitting on the ground so cold?"

“…… I'm so sorry to bother you. Emir looked up at her and said with a guilty look on his face.

"Huh? What kind of are you talking about," Lilith yelled angrily, "possessed by an evil spirit?" Transform me back into my original emir. ”

As she spoke, she shook the emir from side to side, but when she accidentally missed it, the emir flew out and slammed into the stone wall of the cave.

"Woo! Are you plotting against me? The emir bared his teeth in pain.

"Oops, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll hold on a little next time." Lilith hurriedly apologized.

Seeing that she was about to stretch out her claws again, the emir retreated.

"Don't do that? I don't want to be tortured and die...... Wait, you're not blaming me for causing you trouble, that's why you're torturing me, are you? ”

"Uh, you think I'm that kind of person...... Dragons? ”

"Well, it's not like that." The emir nodded.

"By the way, what the hell is this place?"

Lilith then began to look around, perhaps feeling a little cold, and she spat out a dragon's breath that melted the frost around her.

The flame also dispelled the chill in Emir's heart, allowing him to finally regain his former glory.

"Haha, your flame can melt frost." The emir couldn't help but get excited.

"Oh? So, you would have guessed that this would be the case, so why did you look generous and righteous just now? I was so scared that I thought you were possessed by an evil spirit. ”

"Hehe, maybe it's really what you said, I'm frozen stupid." The emir smiled wryly.

This is not speculation, he has reason to suspect that this kind of environment can make people negative, so when he encounters something tricky, he can't help but think of giving up.

Still, after regaining consciousness, he still had a hard time, and if there was nothing behind that door, then he and Lilith would probably really die here.

Because this is an endless snowfield, Lilith's flames will always run out.

But he immediately realized that he was in a negative mood, so he shook his head vigorously and got rid of distractions, after all, no matter what the outcome, he had to see the end.

Then, as Lilith's dragon breath spat on the door, the frost that penetrated deep into the bone marrow was indeed all drawn with water.

When the door was hot, the emir dared to put his hand on it, and then pushed it inside, but there was no response for a long time.

"Looks like I don't have enough strength, Lilith, come and help."

However, hearing this, Lilith couldn't help but cover her face, and finally said helplessly.

"Miss, don't you understand? It's going to be outward. ”

"What?"

When Emile looked closely at the gate, he saw two delicate doorknobs carved into it, which were difficult to detect because they were almost as frosty in color.

Lilith ignored him and snapped the doorknob with her paws, opening the frozen door.

Immediately afterward, a thick white mist gushed out like a spring.
