Chapter 186: The White Palace
Wan also returned the same way with the little knight.
On the way back, even where there is no light, the power of the void is quite peaceful.
Even as they passed by the shadows, they drifted aimlessly, and after a while they turned back into black particles and sank away.
Crawling back from the abyss back to the original entrance platform step by step, Wan Yi and the little knight left this terrible place without any nostalgia.
At the intersection early in the morning, they saw Kulom practicing on his own.
Hearing the commotion, Cullom turned back and said, "You're back!" β
It's not surprising that Wan Yi has compared time with the clone, and it has been more than a day since he and the little knight were trapped in the Void Dream.
He was not affected in the theater, but after coming out of the theater for unknown reasons, he entered the dream where the little knight was.
It was the little knight's dream that traced his birth.
To be precise, it's about the dreams of the little knight's predecessors.
However, the little knight has walked the old path of his predecessors.
The Abyss is where the Pale Lord crafts his secret weapon against the blinding light.
The Pale King saw the power of the Void and believed that the power of the Void could truly destroy the obscuring light, so he conducted countless studies.
The white mask is the empty vessel that carries the void and seals the obstructive light.
The amount of work involved is enormous.
Countless containers of failure are buried beneath the abyss, and only a handful of containers have actually crawled out of the abyss.
And the container that crawled out first, the existence that had nine images with the current little knight, was the only finished product that the Pale King finally identified.
It was regarded as a mere container, unknown to the outside world, and the Pale Prince, who was given the name "Hollow Knight".
It succeeds in its mission, but the harsh reality doesn't live up to the expectations that the Pale King wants.
β¦β¦
"It's time to go to Palace Square next." Wan Yi looked at the little knight this time and said.
The little knight responded with action, and walked straight towards the road of the palace square.
Finally, I finally came here.
That vast clearing.
The true birthplace of the Hallownest, the abode of the Pale King, is now left with ruins and a broken gate.
They came to the door.
Cullom rubbed his knife together, unexpectedly nervous.
And the little knight took out the "Dream Sword" again, condensed the sword body, and slashed directly at the door.
Click!
A large number of patterns of dream flowers floated around, and a white mark appeared in the door frame.
The little knight rushed inside, and Wan Yi and Cullom followed him through the door.
Behind it was not ruins, but a white palace with a strange layout.
The palace was shrouded in mist, occasionally black, and silvery-white thorns covered the buildings. Spikes protrude from the top of the building, and the sound of an ear-wrenching chainsaw looms.
Although I had seen it through the eyes of the moth clone, after entering it in person, it still felt very outrageous.
Three pairs of wings appeared behind the little knight, and with the incitement of the wings, it flew directly.
flew quite steadily, with no intention of falling, Cullom was nothing, but Wan Yi was stunned.
The Broken Knight is also one of the younger knight's compatriots, but it is equipped with these wings, and it can only help to climb quickly, and then stay in the air for a short time to form the illusion of a "double jump".
Why did you really take off directly?
The little knight left the platform and flew in the air, turning his head to look at Wan Yi and Kulom.
Wan Yi and Cullom looked at each other and said, "That'...... Little knight......"
The little knight watched them silently.
"If we both fly and fall down after a while, remember to pull us." Wan Yi gave a thumbs up.
The little knight paused, then nodded.
In the end, Wan Yi and Cullom became a drag in this link.
Fortunately, Wan Yi has gradually become proficient in cockroach wings, and he can insist on flying longer every time. As long as Cullom doesn't move too violently during the flight, his wings usually won't suddenly fail.
However, its wings have become much smaller than before, and its ability to fly has further decreased, and it may be completely shrunk and shed after a while.
As it was flying, a chainsaw suddenly flew out of the clouds and quickly towards the three in the air.
The three insects climbed hand in hand to avoid the chainsaw, and the next moment three rows of chainsaws appeared directly in front of them.
There was also the sound of chainsaws behind him, and Cullom looked back to see a row of chainsaws coming from behind.
"The Pale King's taste is too unique!" Cullom finally sighed with the blasphemy.
As soon as he finished speaking, Wan Yi and the little knight worked together, the little knight mentioned Wan Yi, Wan Yi mentioned Kulom, and Kulom also quickly flapped his wings.
It was the first to rush upward, and Wan Yi and the little knight were a little too late to catch up, so they each took out their weapons to resist the approach of the chainsaw.
Whewββ
The saw collides with the weapon.
White sparks continued to sputter, making a toothache sound, and the little knight and Wan were caught between the chainsaws on both sides, and after holding on for a moment, Cullom sent a ring flying blade from above to help them hold the chainsaw for a moment, and the two took this opportunity to break out of the chainsaw together.
The chainsaw crushed the ringblades and staggered, disappearing into the clouds.
After a little respite, the three moved on.
"The scene here can't be destroyed, those chainsaws don't even have a fixed track in the air, but they can't shake it at all." Cullom said as he thought back to the scene of the Ring Blade being shattered.
"In a sense, this should be the dream of the Pale King." Wan Yi said.
"The king......" Cullom felt reasonable when he heard this.
In the dreams of higher beings, it is normal to be outrageous.
But does the Pale King like thorns, thorns, and saws so much......
The mist wafting through the white palace made the layout of the interior even more confusing, upside down and left and right, and Wan Yi chose to use these chainsaws to distinguish their orientation after being lost for a while.
While some saws are elusive, there are also many that are fixed.
Basically, as long as you go to these places where there are many fixed saws, you can gradually see the next road.
These aggressive appearances are symbols of the dream's resistance to outsiders, and there is no doubt that the more aggressive it is, the more the dream wants to hide.
In front of the little knight, the invisible roads of the insects are revealed one by one.
Let the moth clone hiding in the clouds not far away be called jealousy and envy. It's going to be tortured to the point of being inhuman here!
What, it's not human anymore? That's fine.
Then turn sideways to dodge a chainsaw that suddenly appears.
This dream is now very much aimed at the moth clone, and at first I thought everyone was like this, but it was clear that the situation on the little knight's side was undoubtedly much better.
It seems that it is just this dream that hates moths!
Thinking about it, the moth quickly raised a little higher, dodging the clamps of the two rows of chainsaws.
Finally, in front of everyone's eyes, the superstructure of the White Palace revealed its true face in the clouds.
When I got here, I finally felt a little like entering the palace.
But after entering it, the top floor of the palace faded from the whiteness of the lower layer, adding to the decay aura eroded by the void, and the black-brown environment brought desolation.
Along the way, I saw many puppets made by the Pale King with the power of the Void, but they were no longer functional, and the wreckage was piled up in all corners of the palace.
They reached the final apex, and saw the faded throne.
A figure that had been seen in visions and dreams before sat quietly on the throne, quietly looking straight ahead.
Cullom couldn't help but hold his breath, but the little knight and Wan Yi soon began to approach the throne unabashedly, catching it off guard.
"Afraid of what? Just a corpse. Wan Yi said.
"Corpses!?" Cullom exclaimed.
The Pale King is dead!?
Even if Hallownest has become such a chaotic state now, there is no doubt that this news will be a bombshell!
There are still many worms out there that are suffering and floating, and even then they are still waiting for the king's return, leading them to victory, and rebuilding the kingdom of pale and sanity.
And now, tell them that the Pale King is dead?
The collapse of faith is a simple phrase, but the actual manifestation can be very frightening.
Fortunately, the Mantis Clan had already resisted the Pale King and the Hallownest Kingdom, and Cullom had left Hallownest for a long time, which meant that a great existence had passed away.
Except for feeling a trace of sadness and lamentation, there are not too many emotional fluctuations.
The little knight glanced at the Pale King's corpse, but he crossed it and came to the throne.
Covered in the remnants of the Pale King's corpse, the thing behind him was a large black stone egg.
Sou!
Moth Wan also fell directly from the sky and landed in front of the stone egg: "It didn't take any effort to get it, you can be regarded as here." β
"Who are?" Cullom wondered.
The white fluffy one in front of me looks familiar.
"Drink, I am the messenger of the Supreme Radiant! I'm going to save it! The "little moth" in front of him said, and directly radiated a dazzling light on the stone egg.
The palace vibrate, and the stone eggs shook even more, cracks appeared on the surface, and finally burst open.
A huge black hole was revealed, and moths flew into it.
The breach of the black egg, leaving a void of liquid, thick and terrifying.
