Chapter 305: Robbed by a ghost
A few days later, a full moon hung high in the sky, and the stars around it appeared sparse and dim, but only one star was very bright, and it seemed that there was a starlight flowing on the pyramid that illuminated it for eternity.
A large group of people split into two sides and stood under the pyramid.
Opposite Freega and Baberg stood the young man and woman and Van Quyden, and the men on both sides stood quietly, and no one spoke,
The girl, whose name was Deripatos, looked up at the night sky, and felt that the moon seemed to be frozen, and time was as slow as a frozen river, frozen there forever.
Van Quyden did not stand behind the young man and woman, but took the lead, standing between the two.
He looked leisurely, holding a cigarette stick and smacking it non-stop, as if he had just eaten at home, and took two beautiful puffs.
There was not a single wind in the desert, and the surroundings were eerily quiet, Van Kuiden clicked, looked up at the sky, then nodded, and said, "Let's start." ”
After hearing his words, the girl first stepped forward and took out an ancient wooden staff, which was simple and old, standing still in the air.
Baberg flew up as well, and he took out a gem and embedded it in the hollow at the top of the staff, which suddenly lit up with a misty glow.
The sky and the earth were dark, and in the starry sky, a star was pulled by a wooden staff, and a bright starlight shot straight down from the sky and hit the gem.
Immediately, the gem cast a beam of light and hit the top of the pyramid, and an ancient portal immediately appeared on the tower.
Starlight shines through the portal, revealing a deep passage that leads to the interior of the pyramid.
Seeing the passage appear, Van Kuiden also flew up, only to see him pick up the cigarette stick and blow it violently, blowing out the tobacco in the cigarette stick, and then, wisps of green smoke came out of the cigarette stick, which was almost invisible to the naked eye against the background of the night.
Ferrega and Baberg couldn't help but secretly praise Van Quyden for being an old fox who hid the precious soul-attracting incense in his usual cigarette stick.
Van Kwyden stretched out his cigarette stick and drew intricate trajectories in the air, which lit up one by one along his strokes, and the lit lines soon formed an ancient altar standing in the air.
The starlight in the night sky seemed to shine on the altar, and the whole altar rose with a faint light mist.
At this time, dark shadows began to appear in the passage. These black shadows were like smoke and mist, like pieces of silhouettes rushing outward.
These things were all dead souls, they were in tatters and horrified images, attracted by the altar, and rushed towards it.
The broken souls came to the altar, and the light and mist on the altar soaked their broken bodies, and their bodies were immediately repaired, and their terrifying faces changed back to the appearance of ordinary people, and their faces showed a serene expression and drifted away towards the sky.
Van Kwaid walked in the air with a strange stride, spilling powder from his cigarette stick with each step. The powder turned into green smoke and shrouded the altar.
The green smoke was bound by a mysterious power and floated into the portal passage on the pyramid,
After a few moments, a revenant spirit, distinctly different from these remnants, came out of the passageway, this revenant was intact, dressed in a neat and proper gown, and walked unhurriedly.
At this time, everyone was staring at the scene in the passage, and the young man said, "It's your turn! ”
Frega nodded to his subordinates, and several people flew up with him, and they stopped outside the door on the tower,
Ferrega took out a box and quickly pointed at it, the lid popping open, revealing a black and shiny bead.
Ferrega put the beads on the altar, and the other eight people's hands were sealed, and eight rays of light shot from the hands of these eight people to the beads, and the soul gathering spirit beads suddenly shone brightly, illuminating the night sky brightly.
As soon as those dead souls saw the Soul Gathering Spirit Bead, they scattered and fled like a person seeing a ghost, but the neatly dressed Soul Gathering Spirit Bead looked at the altar greedily, hesitantly wanting to move forward, but it seemed to be afraid of the treasure light of the Soul Gathering Spirit Bead, and did not dare to move forward.
Ferrega nodded towards Barburg, and the ancient incantation came out of the mouths of the two of them, and the eight people who had formed the magic seal in their hands were sweating on their foreheads at this time, and the light on their hands was more focused on the soul gathering spirit bead, and Van Queden and the others also held their breath, for fear of disturbing their spell casting.
Everyone was engrossed, and the Soul Gathering Spirit Bead also lit up more and more.
This well-dressed revenant didn't seem to be able to see these people, it hesitated to wander around the light altar, but it never dared to step into the aperture of the soul gathering spirit bead, Van Queden's movements became faster and faster, and the light on the altar became more and more intense, and Frega's side also stepped up to cast spells, just waiting for this revenant to step into the aperture and collect it.
Everyone held their breath and looked forward to it with all their attention, but they saw that this revenant suddenly accelerated, rushed to the altar, rushed to the side of the soul gathering spirit bead, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he held the bead in his hand.
The Revenant smirked, "Don't bother, don't you just want to summon me to show up?" I'm here, I'll take this bead, get out! ”
As soon as the words fell, the revenant retreated into the passage and disappeared without a trace.
At this moment, everyone froze.
That's not right! According to ancient legends and what they knew, shouldn't the souls of Soskutus run out under the guidance of the Soul Incense, be imprisoned by the Soul Gathering Orb, and then sign a contract with them to lead them to the tomb of the Great King?
At this time, the light on the altar was getting fainter and fainter, and it was about to disappear, Van Queden looked at the few soul-attracting incense left in his hand, knew that there was nothing to be done, sighed, and fell to the ground.
The altar vanished, and with it the portal, and all the people in the air fell to the ground with him, leaving only Freega and Barburg standing in the air.
The young men and women walked up to Van Kuiden and asked eagerly, "What's going on?" ”
Van Kweden smiled bitterly at Freega and Baberg, who were parked in the air, "Let's talk about it when they come down." ”
Freegar and Barberg stood in the air, staring blankly at the vanishing portal, what had just happened seemed to be just an illusion.
It was a long time before sanity returned to the two of them, and the two returned to the ground, looking at Van Quyden and the young man and woman, unable to utter a word.
Van Kuiden was the first to speak: "Two, let's talk about it, what's going on?" ”
Ferrega's eyes were full of shock, and he had not yet recovered from the accident just now, and Barberg rolled his eyes up, as if he had not heard Van Quidden's question.
The young man was angry and shouted, "What about you? What's going on? ”
Frega moved his lips and said, "We don't know, we don't know what's going on?" ”
The young man said, "You don't know? The Soul Gathering Spirit Bead didn't play a role at all, you dare to say that you don't know, do you want to play tricks, let me tell you, the Lionheart Emperor is not afraid of steel blades! ”
Freega looked dead and said, "We really don't know what's going on. I swear to Mirran, we don't know. ”
"I believe you have ghosts! You have also seen the soul-attracting incense we took out, and it did work, but what about the soul-gathering spirit beads you took out? was snatched away by the souls of the dead, who would believe it! ”
Frega regained a little of his senses and said: "Prince Bergero, I swear to Mirraten, the Soul Gathering Bead I just took out is absolutely real, and His Majesty Steel Blade personally handed it to me, I have not left my body since I got it, if someone can exchange the soul bead from me unknowingly, unless it is a divine spirit." ”
Fan Kuiden stepped forward and said: "This matter is too strange, we have agreed that we will provide soul-attracting incense, and you will gather soul spirit beads, and the value of these two items is equal." Now we have run out of soul incense, but your soul orbs have no effect. This has to be doubtful. ”,
Freega calmed down a lot at this time, and said: "Van Quuden, you have also seen everything that happened just now, the Soul Gathering Spirit Bead was snatched, and we also gained nothing and lost the Spirit Bead. ”
Berjero laughed angrily: "The soul gathering spirit bead that detains the ghost has been snatched away by the ghost, and you don't believe the ghost when you say it to the ghost!" ”
"Prince Bergero, everyone can see the situation just now, so if you don't believe it, I can't do anything."
Bejero said: "What happened just now, there was nothing wrong on our side, it was all done by you. At the beginning, we were not surprised by this matter, and your Steelblade Emperor and my uncle made a heavy guarantee. Now that you've failed, according to the agreement, the oasis will be ours in the future, and you'll have to get rid of the Thirteen Tarans for us, hum,"
Bejero sneered a few times, and then said: "Now that the oasis has a strong man in charge, I see how you can fulfill the agreement?" Let's go. After Bergero finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to Ferrega and the others,
Van Quidden opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but finally followed Bergello and the others without saying a word.
