Chapter 21: Hung Up?
"Ahem~" The dust caused by the collapse of the wall filled the narrow passage and was very choking, Chang An blocked his mouth and nose with his arms and hurriedly ran forward, the scene in front of him was too amazing.
The wall just looked thick, but in fact it was only a thin layer, as if it had been built to hide what was behind it. Behind this wall is a large room, which is obviously a confined space underground, but it is very bright by a dozen night pearls embedded in the wall.
There were some magic tools in the room very messily, it looked like an abandoned laboratory, Chang An couldn't tell what these tools were used for a while, and before he could think about it, the task terminal hanging around his neck flew in by itself, and this usually babbling word didn't even have an explanation.
Chang An shrugged his shoulders and ignored it, what he was most concerned about now was the life or death of the poem.
When the wall collapsed, Soshi's body was buried in bricks, bleeding from his forehead, and he lay motionless on the ground.
Chang An squatted down, reached out to probe her snort, and there was a faint wheezing, it seemed that she had only passed out temporarily. Chang An immediately grabbed Song Shi's neck with one hand, and quickly took out a dagger from his waist with the other hand.
The arm holding the dagger was trembling, Chang An had never been so excited as he was at this moment, as long as this knife pierced him, he would be free! For this moment, he had been waiting for thousands of years!
Now, all you need to do is cut off the head of the poem......
Chang An did not hesitate to put the dagger across Song Shi's neck, the blade cut a bloody mark on the skin, and his arm was about to press the dagger down forcefully, when a black stone suddenly flew over from a distance, knocking the dagger in Chang An's hand into the air!
"Keep people under the knife!"
Chang An's blood-colored eyes glared angrily at the stone that hit the flying dagger, isn't this the task terminal that he owes his mouth? If he doesn't give himself a reasonable explanation this time, Chang An decides that he must throw this cheap thing into the dung pit for it to reflect on.
"Don't rush to do it yet, come and take a look at this. ”
The tone of the terminal was very serious, Chang An could only follow it into the depths of the room, and if he didn't come in, he wouldn't find that there were countless strange magical devices here, and many things couldn't tell what they were used for with Chang An's knowledge.
In addition to the equipment, Chang An also saw a lot of bloodstains, on the floor, on the wall and on the equipment, the blood stains were very messy and obviously not just one person, according to Chang'an's experience, there were only two situations that would create so many blood stains, one was that there had been a massacre of extermination operations here, and the other was a blood sacrifice...... Or both?
As she had said before, she didn't know that there was such a space under her family, and judging from the integrity of these tables, it was abandoned more than ten years ago. What kind of tricky magic did the Zou family study here? The necromancers I've seen before haven't been so secretive. Chang An said to himself as he walked, but it didn't take long for him to see only a wall in front of him.
"That's the end of the road, isn't it? What the hell are you trying to show me?"
"Sao Nian, you move this pile away. ”
Chang An glanced at the pile of empty bottles and broken cans in his hand suspiciously, so he had to do so. When he moved everything aside, a magic array with a diameter of more than one meter appeared on the original ground!
The magic array is depicted with black unknown materials, and it is still as good as new after many years, and what surprises Chang An is that he can't understand many of the lines in this magic circle. You must know that with Chang An's level of magic theory, there are very few magic arrays in the whole universe that he can't understand, and he has seen it once in the dwarf tribe before, but he didn't expect to encounter it here again so soon.
"Tsk, this world is really interesting. But does that have anything to do with you not letting me kill the poem?"
The terminal didn't have the slightest idea of joking with Chang An this time, and said solemnly: "Find a way to activate this magic array and try it." ”
Chang An spread his hands helplessly: "Don't make trouble, I don't have magic power, I can't even send out a small fireball, how can I start this thing?"
"It's important to figure it out on your own, it's about whether you can complete the task and go home. ”
The terminal said that Chang'an could only do it.
He bit his finger and dropped a drop of blood in the middle of the magic array, and said in his mouth: "With my blood, draw the power of heaven and earth!"
This is a very common set of magic circle activation methods, Chang An has successfully launched the immortal family formation and activated the magic array with this method, but here...... It's not useful.
Chang An frowned, if this is not good, he can only use the power of the sun in his body to try it, and the power of the evil sect does not know what it is, God knows if it will work.
Condensed a trace of the power of the sun and heaven at his fingertips, Chang An was just about to point his finger at the magic circle, and a sudden change occurred!
I saw that the ground in the center of the magic circle suddenly cracked, yes, it cracked silently, and a red light rose from the crack, and after turning a corner in the air, it went straight to Chang'an! Frightened, Chang An hurriedly raised his dagger and subconsciously blocked it.
"Ding!" There was a crisp sound, it was the sound of the dagger's blade falling to the ground, Chang An still maintained the posture of holding the dagger just now and did not move, he didn't feel a little thrust just now, and then, the dagger was cut in half by the red light like a piece of tofu!
Cold sweat instantly soaked Chang An's back, this red light is too evil, and what is even more evil is that the red light seems to have eyes, and after cutting off the dagger, it spun around in the air and flew towards Chang An!
"Damn!" Chang An pulled his legs and ran, it would be a fool not to run at this time, while running, he also pulled out his pistol and shot at the red light that was chasing him in the sky, but as soon as the bullet hit the red light, it was cut in half instantly, and the castration of the red light did not decrease at all.
Fortunately, this room is big enough to make a quick detour. And although the red light is very fast, the accuracy is a little worse, and many times when Chang An's head is about to be cut off, Chang An tilts his head and dodges it. But......
I still can't run away!
In the face of such a terrifying existence, Chang An couldn't think of a way to deal with it with all his might. In the face of this overwhelming force, all his petty means were in vain.
The danger came very suddenly!
"Poof!" It wasn't until a muffled sound came into his ears that Chang An reacted, and his chest had been pierced.
When I looked down, I saw a strangely shaped straight-edged long knife inserted into his heart, and the entire blade was as red as blood, and I didn't know if it was my own blood.
"Huh...... Scold...... I really didn't expect that I would just hang up like this?" Chang An felt that the strength of his whole body was being lost, he knew that it was impossible to survive such an injury, after all, there was no Holy Demon Master by his side to cast a holy technique that reversed life and death for him.
Consciousness was gradually blurring, Chang An seemed to hear the terminal shouting something in his ear, but he no longer had the strength to respond.
The long knife inserted in Chang An's chest suddenly moved again, but this time the speed was very slow, and Chang An watched as it pushed itself towards the strange magic array on the wall!
The blood was flowing rapidly, and soon the entire ground was dyed red, and then, as if more and more blood was being absorbed, it quickly dyed the black magic array on the ground red.
Blood Sacrifice!
At the last moment when he was still conscious, the word suddenly popped into Chang An's mind. Immediately afterward, his eyes went black and he lost consciousness completely.
