The long stone staircase leads to the unfathomable depths of the earth, and the stone walls on either side of the passage burn at intervals with purple fires, illuminating the path ahead with a dim glow. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The followers walked down the stairs with a group of adventurers who had lost their consciousness and life, and Han Fei clearly felt that the power of the darkness around him was getting stronger and stronger, and an extremely cold aura continued to pass over him and the adventurers, as if they were snooping at something.
Han Fei, who went deep into the tiger's den, didn't dare to be careless, he held back his breath and exerted the effect of the breathing technique to the extreme, not letting the slightest vital signs leak out, his bare eyes outside the face towel were gray, and he looked no different from a dead man.
After walking down hundreds of steps, and then passing through a labyrinthine corridor, a magnificent underground structure gradually appeared in front of Han Fei's eyes.
No one knew that there was such an amazing presence beneath the tulip castle, with pale yellow stone pillars and stone walls separating each other to support the dome, cleverly dividing the rooms and public areas.
All the stone pillars and walls are carved with lifelike creatures, gods, four races, spirit beasts, demons... It is completely a museum for the display of art, and it is impossible to imagine how much manpower and material resources were spent to build it back then.
There was also a delicate spiritual lamp hanging on each stone pillar, and the soft orange light illuminated the place in a delicate light, and the dark aura almost disappeared here, and the spirit suckers who guided the adventurers stopped and quietly retreated into the dark corner, and even the low screams of the sign's surname were no longer emitted.
Not far from the left side of the front, eight golden stone pillars arched a magic circle embedded in the ground, the magic circle was obviously open, and each line that made up the magic circle was emitting brilliant light, making the magic circle look strange and mysterious from afar.
And next to this circle, there stood a mage wrapped in a black robe, he slowly turned his head, and his face under the black cloth was dark and impossible to see.
He waved the staff in his hand lightly towards the team of adventurers, and the team immediately turned towards each other, or more pretentiously, towards the circle.
Could it be that this black-robed mage was the source of all the sneakiness and darkness in Tulip Castle? Han Fei couldn't be sure, and he didn't dare to scan it with his divine sense, because the power that the other party possessed would definitely not be below him.
Following the walking corpse-like adventurer, Han Fei approached the magic circle step by step, and also got closer and closer to the black-robed mage, a supreme and powerful innate true qi was condensed into his right arm, and he could send out innate true fire to attack the enemy at any time.
It has been proven that the innate true fire that can destroy all evils has an extremely strong ability to destroy dark forces and abyss monsters.
The adventurer who walked in front walked into the magic circle, only to see a flash of light, and his whole person disappeared without a trace, this is a teleportation magic circle.
Han Fei finally understood why those adventurers who broke into the castle for more than a hundred years would not see people alive or dead, and they did not even leave any traces of existence, it turned out that they had all been evaporated from the world here.
Is this a garbage removal machine? A rather ridiculous thought came to Han Fei's mind, these adventurers were all sucked away by the Spirit Sucking Monster and their flesh and blood essence, in a sense, they were really not much different from garbage.
It's just that no matter what it is, Han Fei definitely doesn't want to try the power of this teleportation circle, maybe the other end is in the river of lava in the abyss hell.
One step, two steps, three steps... He finally approached the edge of the magic circle, only a few meters away from the black-robed mage, Han Fei's right fist suddenly clenched, and the red-golden innate true fire revealed through his skin.
But at this critical moment, the black-robed mage suddenly reached out and flipped the robe and hat that covered his face to the back of his neck, revealing his true face completely.
This is a head that only belongs to the old man, the silver white hair is neatly combed and meticulous, the old face is densely covered with deep wrinkles like a ditch, the tall and thin cheekbones, the eagle hooked nose, the thin lips, and a pair of blue eyes containing the vicissitudes of time, which makes people impressed at first sight.
A smile appeared on the black-robed mage's face, and he saluted Han Fei with an extremely elegant salute, his movements were absolutely impeccable: "Your Excellency the Viscount, my master is congratulating you on your arrival, he can't wait to meet you, please come with me!"
Han Fei was suddenly shocked in his heart.
There is no doubt that the other party has already grasped his every move, and his self-proclaimed cautious infiltration is probably as ridiculous as a clown show.
However, despite the shock in his heart, Han Fei remained silent on the surface, he walked out of the team unhurriedly, put away the breathing technique and innate true fire, and all the breath of life returned to his body, calm as if it was really a formal visit.
Han Fei did not neglect a single detail, the salute he gave him and the tone of his speech were completely in line with the butler of a noble family.
Almost all aristocratic families have a butler, a well-trained and excellent housekeeper can not only arrange the affairs of the family, but also can add glory to the master, many wealthy family housekeepers are trained from an early age, after more than ten years or even decades of study to take responsibility, they not only have a good salary, many have the title of knight or lord.
As for the owner in the other party's mouth, it may be the existence that really controls the tulip castle.
"That's my honor..."Han Fei replied with a slight bow.
Since the other party has seen through it, and the person standing in front of him is not the main person, it is undoubtedly a stupid choice to tear his face and do it immediately, and in Han Fei's heart, he has an even greater curiosity about that existence, if the other party is just a dark monster from the abyss, how can he have such a butler with a noble demeanor.
There was a glint of appreciation in the mage's eyes, he made an inviting gesture, and took the lead along a passage next to him, Han Fei followed the other party to the deeper part of the underground palace, the horror in his heart quickly subsided, and all kinds of thoughts flew through his mind like lightning. This kind of situation was something he hadn't expected in advance, and the other party's use of this unexpected way could be said to have given Han Fei a solid dismount, and it also revealed the strength he had.
If it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that I would have lost all the confidence in my heart by now, but how resolute Han Fei's mind was, the slight setbacks inspired him to have a stronger fighting spirit, and the steps under his feet became more and more firm and powerful, and all the gloom was dispelled without a trace.
Life or death, success or defeat, it's nothing more than a war!
The two of them walked through the long corridor one after the other, and the golden stone door at the end of the passage suddenly opened.
The black-robed mage stood at the door, bent down again and saluted Han Fei: "Your Excellency, please come in, my master is inside." ”
Han Fei nodded and strode into the stone gate, believing that after this stone gate, all the secrets would be answered!
The front is cheerful, and the doorway is a very open space, or more accurately, a huge house without wall partitions.
The first thing that caught Han Fei's eye was the living room of the house, where some common furniture of aristocratic families were placed, such as desks, bookshelves, wooden sofas, desks... Both in style and colour look to be a long time old, and a magnificent crystal ceiling hangs from the dome, illuminating the bright yellow light that envelops the entire living room.
On one side of the wall, there are carved relief patterns, on which several tulip-shaped wall lamps are hung, and the faint light is transmitted from the colored lattice glass lampshade, which complements the light of the crystal lamp, giving people a rather warm feeling.
With a glance, Han Fei noticed that on the other side of the room was a long table with various utensils and materials piled up everywhere, and wisps of smoke were emitting from several of the crucibles, like the workshop laboratory of a mage or apothecary.
And in the innermost part of the room, there stood a square golden altar, this altar was about three meters high, densely covered with countless glowing spirit runes, located in the center of a spirit magic circle, it was surrounded by the faint glow from the magic circle, it looked extremely mysterious.
At the top of the altar was a glittering crystal coffin, and a man dressed in a white aristocratic robe stood quietly beside the coffin, looking down intently and affectionately at the person lying in the coffin.
Such a scene was so mysterious and weird, time seemed to freeze in an instant, the white-robed nobleman obviously didn't make any moves, but Han Fei just set his eyes on him, and an invisible coercive force suddenly hit him, oppressing him so much that he could barely breathe!
A god-level powerhouse!Han Fei's heart was cold, if it was just an existence of the same level as him, it was absolutely impossible to have such a powerful momentum to oppress, and it was not deliberate.
The power of coercion was fleeting, and at the same time as Han Fei's gaze settled, the white-robed man retracted his gaze and raised his head with some sense, he slowly turned to look at Han Fei and nodded, and then walked straight down the stairs from the altar, stepping through the thick wool carpet until he walked in front of Han Fei.
With his right hand pressed on his left chest, the white-robed man bowed slightly to Han Fei, showing his elegant and aristocratic demeanor.
"Welcome to my world, Lord Viscount, I've been waiting for your arrival for a long, long time..."!
