Chapter 54: The Cave Blood Pool
It was a tunnel deep underground, but it wasn't pitch black, and there was a faint and eerie red light in the damp tunnel.
Mondos looked ahead, then at the back, hesitating.
"Where should I go?"
At this moment, a light blue mist rose from the back of the tunnel. The blue mist quickly changed from faint to thick, and began to materialize from nothing, and in the mist, resentful spirits with teeth and claws appeared. They screamed, slowly closing in on the crowd.
All living beings have souls, and in addition to the effects of dark magic, the creation of resentful spirits must also be brutally tortured in unimaginable ways, and the extracted souls can be refined into resentful spirits.
Seeing so many resentful spirits, the faces of the seven people were not very good-looking.
"It seems that there is no choice, let's move on."
Darren is a shield warrior with good defense, and a small shield in his hand can resist sudden attacks. Mondoth, Geralk, and Erid were in charge of the break, and the attacks and throwing knives in their hands shot towards the wraiths surging behind them, and the feathered arrows and throwing knives infused with fighting energy tore apart the wraiths that had been pressing closer.
Wraiths filled the sky, their shrill howls whistling and fluttering in the air, revealing their white fangs. Although they don't have much attack power on their own, they are staggering in number. Fortunately, the tunnels are narrow, and it is not difficult to defend against them, but if you want to cross directly through them, it is undoubtedly a fool's dream.
"Burst Arrow!"
At Darren's suggestion, Mondoth fired a barrage of dazzling feathered arrows at the wall of the tunnel behind. The Level 2 Bow Fighting Skill "Burst Arrow" has the same explosion effect as the "Fireball Burst", but the explosion is more powerful.
"Bang ......"
The tunnel collapsed with the sound of the explosion, blocking the group of resentful spirits, and the road was already a dead end anyway, and they didn't care about any more dirt like this.
However, the spirits are refined by the soul after all, and they can still pass through the walls, but the speed of the surging will be much faster.
The blood in the cavern grew brighter and stronger, and the wraiths finally stopped, screaming in the broken tunnel behind, as if what was in front of them made them fearful. Feeling the strong smell of blood blowing in their ears, Wu Yu's faces were a little unpleasant. Step by step, they cautiously explored, alertly aware of the changes around them.
Turning a small corner of a tunnel, the scene in front of you suddenly opens up. This is a huge cavern, and under this cave, there is a huge pool of blood glowing with a faint light, and the naked eye estimates that the area is at least 600 square meters! At this point, the smell of blood in the air became even stronger, and the blood in the pool of blood was boiling like boiling water, and the bubbling red mist formed a small whirlwind. Only then did everyone notice a strange red skull suspended on the blood pool, its eyes glowing with blood, and its mouth greedily absorbing those red mist......
Everyone's faces suddenly changed, and they fell into a dead silence for a while.
It's a hellish sight!
"This ...... So much blood...... Which...... Where did it come from? ”
Deaton was dumbfounded, how could he have ever seen such a scene? Wu Yu and the others are the same, but the elf child who believes in the goddess of nature has the palest face. What's more, although he is 121 years old this year, he is still a child in the natural elf race.
"Yes...... The villagers who disappeared ......"
Mondos's hand unconsciously tightened his grip on his bow and arrows.
At this time, Erid noticed something unusual, and his hand was raised, pointing to the bottom of the cavern.
"Look around that pool of blood!"
It's a corpse! Densely packed corpses! Because of the blood-colored light, they also turned red, so no one saw these corpses for a while.
At the other end of the cavern, a figure slowly flew out. He wears a black magic robe and holds a 2-meter-long jet-black magic staff, and the reason why he can fly is because of a pair of magic wings condensed by magic on his back.
A mage who can condense the wings of magic power, he is a Dafa teacher!
Through the blood light, Wu Yu and the others could also see his face clearly. What a terrifying face, his bald head, half of his face as if it were rotting, faintly visible in the flesh, and his eyes glistening with mysterious blood.
"Whoa...... It's finally here...... My darling...... Fresh blood has come to the door...... Whoop ......"
Darren drank cold.
"Who are you!"
"Who am I? Who am I? I...... I...... Who the hell am I? ”
The black-robed man hugged his head in pain.
Darren and Wu Yu looked at each other, what is the situation?
Cedric...... By the way, I remembered that my name was Cedric! Oh...... No...... My darling...... Whoop...... No! Get out of my head! Whoop...... No...... Baby...... I'm sorry, I was too fierce just now......"
The black-robed man named Cedric held his head as if he was struggling for something, and the blood in his eyes flickered and flickered.
Deaton couldn't help but yell.
"What is this guy talking about? Schizophrenia? ”
"His name seems to be Cedric."
Mondos came to such a conclusion.
And at this time, Cedric was no longer in pain, and he was no longer struggling, his eyes were full of blood! I saw Cedric's hands stretched out to the sides, and a cold and evil aura suddenly filled his surroundings.
"Whoa...... The blood of the strong has the power of purer blood, I know, baby...... Whoop ......"
Deaton swallowed.
"Guys, what does this guy look like now...... It doesn't look like it's going to be good......"
"Buzz ......"
The jet-black magic wand in Cedric's hand was a little empty, and the magic power surged wildly, and even the air was vibrate. Suddenly, a huge dark red magic seal appeared in the cave. The corpses around the pool of blood moved! They got up and rushed towards Wu Yu and them.
"Ahh Get ready for battle! ”
Mondos hurriedly took the arrow and wound it.
Beldon frowned, recognizing the magic.
"This is a level 4 dark high-level magic, 'Dance of Death'! Be careful, everyone! ”
In dark magic, the "Dance of Death" magic is actually very similar to the "summoning of the undead", both of which summon the undead to fight. "Summoning the Dead" is the use of magic to communicate with the dark element, summoning the undead from the Soul Realm. The "Dance of Death" is even more domineering, transforming corpses into undead in diameter. When the magic of the former disappears, the soul fire of the undead will disappear and return to the soul realm, but the undead of the latter will not disappear, so you can use this dark magic to create an endless army of the undead! The premise, of course, is that there is a constant stream of corpses.
"Piercing Arrow!"
"Violent Arrow!"
"Half Moon Slash!"
"Whirlwind Throwing Knife!"
"Lancet!"
The moment the corpses got up, everyone unleashed the fastest ranged attack, and the light of the fighting spirit was particularly dazzling. Although they are still human corpses, they are real undead, and one day their flesh will rot and fall off, turning into a white skeleton of bones wandering around.
"Poof! Burst! ”
Under the bombardment of a series of fighting skills, a large number of undead were shattered, but many of the mutilated corpses were still crawling on the ground. The undead formed by the Dance of Death are more difficult to deal with than the undead summoned by the Call of the Dead.
"Aim for their heads!"
Darren was the first to discover the lethal parts of these undead, and those who had been blasted off their heads fell to the ground and did not move.
The army of the undead withstood Darren's long-range fighting skills, and after falling nearly a hundred corpses, they finally rushed in front of them. They have no mind, so they are fearless and go forward.
At this point, the archer Mondoth, the Assassin Geralc, and the ranger Eried quickly retreated, their bows and throwing knives not suitable for close combat. The Assassin Geralc was good at sneak attacks, and in this situation, he could only rely on the throwing knife in his hand. Wu Yu, Darren, Beldon and Deaton immediately took the front row. Darren and Deaton are warriors and are good at close combat, Wu Yu is a magic swordsman, and it is okay to say that he is a law practitioner, because this profession is originally a combination of martial arts and law. The arrogant dragon girl disdains to flinch, and the "lollipop" magic wand she dances with great power is even more powerful than the average warrior.
Wu Yu's Star White Jade Sword had already ejected the Star Sword and turned into a rope dart. His hands danced gracefully, throwing, sweeping, and swinging, and the star sword and rope dart in his hand merged with him, like an arm dancing. The jade-like star sword turned into a circle of white shadows, and wherever the white shadows went, the heads of the undead fell one after another. Those undead who occasionally broke through the sword net, they were greeted by the Sun Sword in Wu Yu's left hand. The star sword rope dart attacks from afar, and the sun sword attacks closely, and there is a sword shadow no matter how far or near it is.
Darren's small shield can be prevented and attacked, and with the short sword in his right hand, the battle is very fast. His shield fighting skill "Shield Strike" is combined with the short sword fighting skill "Whirlwind Piercing", both offensive and defensive.
Deaton's dancing twin swords are all whistling winds, and the "Twin Willows with the Wind Swordsmanship" is a kind of fast sword swordsmanship, so Deaton basically doesn't need to defend, because those undead have not yet had a chance to attack, and their heads will be quickly cut off by Deaton's short sword.
Although Beldon holds the professional title of a mage, he uses the attack method of a warrior. Her attack is fierce, and the "lollipop" magic wand should not be called a magic wand, it should be called a hammer, and it doesn't have to be aimed at their heads, because every hammer is like smashing a watermelon!
"Whoosh!"
Ed shot a "piercing arrow", a series of shots through the five undead in a straight line, when he bent his hand to take the arrow, he was stunned, the quiver behind him was empty, and his feather arrow had actually been shot!
A black shadow flashed over his head, and before Ed could see anything, a huge spider jumped on Eried's head, and eight thighs wrapped around the entire spider's body against his face.
"Damn spiders!"
Geralk next to him was the first to react, holding a short throwing knife in his hand, and slashed towards the giant spider. His throwing knives had long since been shot, and the last one was now used as a dagger by him.
