Volume 1 Aquaman's Sigh Chapter 33 The Forbidden Land of Death

Eisen walked in silence at the front, followed by Veges, and the rest of the group was on guard. Although the firelight illuminates a small area, the darkness that firmly envelops the firelight is always large and deep to make people feel palpitations, and there seem to be countless ghosts and evil spirits lurking in the unknown darkness, and a rich and strange atmosphere surging from all directions, like a rising tide, silently sweeping towards everyone......

"Captain, I can't feel anything!" Angela suddenly opened her eyes in the dim firelight, her slightly trembling eyes shrouded in a thick haze, "I don't feel any soul power flowing in this dead forest......"

"Does that mean there aren't any monsters or other humans within the limits of your exploration?" said Eisen's voice in a low voice, but he also obviously sensed the vague uneasiness and confusion in Angela's tone, so he accentuated the tone of questioning.

"Theoretically, this is true, even a master who can fully control the flow of soul power cannot accurately seal all the flow of soul power and suppress them from being in a completely static state, and as long as there is the slightest flow of soul power, I can capture it accurately, and the monster will not deliberately suppress its soul power, so this forest should be a safe area without any magic beasts and human activities, just ......" Angela lowered her eyes again and again, as if thinking about how to express the subtle strangeness that was gradually rising in her heart.

"It's just...... What?"

"It's just...... It was a strange feeling, outside the Forest of Silence, I could clearly feel that my ability to perceive was being blocked by some force, but after stepping into the Forest of Death, I didn't feel that feeling at all, and my perception seemed to be unhindered by anything, spreading to the edge of the limit...... However, it was this feeling that made me feel faintly inappropriate......" Angela's eyes flickered an indescribable gray, and her breathing became rapid with anxiety, and suddenly a lightning flash flashed under her eyes, and she jerked her head up, looking at the people around her in horror, I'm not quite sure how wide the limit of my soul power is, but what I can be sure of is that outside of the Forest of Silence, I can easily sense the extremely faint and slow-flowing soul power in the bodies of those civilians in the ancient elf town, but once I enter the forest, I can't sense the slightest ......."

"The ancient elf town is more than 150 miles away from here, and you can still see scattered humans and animals on the way here, and the completely uninhabited wilderness must be at least about 100 miles away, and Angela can't detect the rest of the soul power flow at all as soon as she enters the Forest of Dead Silence, so it means ......" Jenora continued to analyze in place of Angela, who was silent, "Your ability is invalid in this forest?"

"No, my abilities are not failing, but ...... It's that this forest is like a completely independent space, remember the moment we stepped into the forest just now?" Angela's frightened face had completely turned dead gray, as if she had been deprived of almost all her life force in an instant, "All the light, all the sounds, disappeared in vain in that moment, as if we had stepped into a strange space completely cut off from the outside world......"

"A completely separate space?" Eisen muttered, "and there is not the slightest flow of soul power within the range of Angela's ability to detect, which means that the area of this space is at least wider than Angela's range of exploration......"

"And this unknown space has only the thick darkness of ink and the intertwining of ancient trees, which ...... It's like a vast labyrinth in itself, and it's a world completely isolated from each other......" Arya was clearly aware of the seriousness of the problem, "and the worst thing is...... We don't even know where the exit to the maze is, and maybe there is no exit to the labyrinth at all."

What I didn't expect was that this piece of the Eldas Mountains, which was known as the forbidden region, just ushered in such a strange and bizarre problem just after entering. The people who were full of hope a moment ago seemed to have fallen from the top of the mountain to the icy valley bottom, and the biting cold hit from under their feet, quickly eroding the entire body, and a helpless hesitation and fear suppressed around everyone.

"The Forest of Silence seems to be a barrier to isolate the outside world, if all the intruders are lost in the forest, then the only thing that awaits them is death, but ......" Wren, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, his throat seemed to be a little dry, so that the sound was a little hoarse, but his eyes were not rendered by the sudden change of despair, on the contrary, there was a clear calmness," If there is a record of the Eldas Mountains in the Imperial Library, then someone must have managed to get out of here, either inside the mountains or back to the outside of the mountains...... Here, by no means a dead place. ”

"That's right, whether it's a labyrinth or a completely separate space, at least there must be an exit......"

"But...... How are we going to find that exit?" Angela's face still looked pale and tired.

"There is no detailed information about the Dead Forest, it seems that we have to find this answer slowly, no matter what, if we stay here, we can't find the ...... exit" Eisen looked down and thought for a moment, looking at the hideous dark depths ahead with a serious expression, "However, for the sake of safety, let's all not act separately, I vaguely feel that this place seems to be ......"

"It doesn't seem like it's just a labyrinth, is it?" came Janora's deep voice, his soul power rising inexplicably in the darkness, and his eyes fierce like a cheetah ready to attack at any moment, "...... There is an oppressive atmosphere here, at first I thought it was caused by the darkness that enveloped the whole forest, but now it seems that it is not so simple, what really disturbs me is not pure darkness, but a certain hostility or murderous aura that is deliberately suppressed hidden in the darkness......"

The warrior who has been walking on the tip of the knife for many years is extremely sensitive to the hostility and murderous aura that lurks around him, which is an instinct and an instinct, a skill that has been gradually honed from constant killing and blood. Even if the enemy deliberately hides the murderous aura, as long as there is the slightest overflow, it will still be perceived by the sharpest warriors, which is an instinct born after countless brushes with death.

Eisen was slightly stunned, he slowly turned his head to look at the handsome face that was still a little pale in the firelight, and Jenora's judgment was actually the same as his. More precisely, it was Genora who cleared his tangled thoughts, which were like a jumble of fur. And yet it was here that he was surprised—Jenora's insight into murderous and hostile instincts was far above him......

"Indeed, I feel the same way, but ......" Eisen looked at the faint strangeness in Jenora's gaze for a moment, and he naturally fell on Angela on the other side, "Angela's abilities are never missed, if there is indeed some unknown danger lurking in the darkness, then...... What is the ...... that kills us?"

"Click......" Beges stepped casually as if he had broken something, and the crisp breaking sound echoed through the silent forest, which seemed particularly abrupt, and also interrupted Eisen's doubtful voice.

Everyone's eyes looked at Beggis's feet at the same time, and through the beating firelight, they could see that Beggis's feet were broken white bones, the shape and size were more like human hand bones, and the faintly yellowed bones were faintly visible on the traces left by the erosion of time, and it was obvious that the owner of this bone had died here a long, long time ago.

"It's ...... Bones?" Angela's beautiful face was visibly stunned, her face changed slightly, and her jewel-like pupils gradually condensed with more and more intense fear.

"It's normal to have bones, after all, it's not just a few of us who want to enter the Eldas Mountains. Begis said disapprehantly, "There are thousands of people buried in this forest, so there's no need to make a fuss......

"No, Bergis senpai, look ......" Angela's silver-bell-like anxious voice interrupted Bergis, who looked suspiciously at Angela's shocked gaze, his heart ...... Then it sank violently.

Dense bones, hideous bones scattered all around them at some point, and the area illuminated by the firelight was covered with the mottled bones left by the erosion of time. However, it wasn't just these that really made the scalp tingle, but the bones that looked almost fossilized were actually squirming at a slow pace...... Yes, struggling or squirming very slowly......

In the vast darkness, there were countless squirming sounds, as if the ghostly ghosts were whispering, and the whole world was filled with this chilling sound......

Some kind of evil that is silent in the ground is quietly awakening in the darkness, and the viscous air like thick ink is filled with a murderous aura that is getting thicker and thicker, like a sharp sword out of the sheath, with a cold coldness, tumbling and sweeping......
