Chapter 207: Underground Labyrinth 2
Landscape City, Marzer Mansion, Study
There are two men with different temperaments and diametrically opposite states. An aristocratic teenager abandoning his elegant route was pacing anxiously, while another elegant young man with silver glasses was buried in the huge desk, so silent that no one could be seen. But the same uneasiness pervades the air.
"Why didn't they give them this map sooner? What if it's so complicated!" said Melson, shaking a roll of parchment in his hand, as he paced the doorway of the bookcase.
"Don't rush just yet. Sitting at the desk, Melson, who was quietly and seriously looking at the materials in his hand, had to look up, hold up his silver glasses, and speak to comfort the fried-haired little lion in front of him.
"The diagram in your hand, it's useless to give it to them. This map is only a general mark, not marked with details, and it is not intended to guide the way, but only as an archive. The most important thing is that they are two of them going down together, what else can happen. If you have time to wander around, you might as well go through the bookcase over there. After Melson finished speaking, he glanced at Melson, then at Jing who was tied to a chair and glared at the two of them, and at Malzer, who was still asleep on the sofa, and then moved his gaze back to the material in his hand.
"No, even if you know that the boss and Brother Ying are powerful, you still have to worry about it. What's more, this ghost place, before looking at this map, who can know the dungeon in this old guy's mouth, not a dungeon in the traditional sense, where is this dungeon, this is a city at all. Not to mention encountering dangerous obstacles, even pure walking will take at least half a day, a day, if you get lost again, won't you be able to say what will come out?"
When Robert heard this, his eyes also moved to the secret door, and the back of the slightly thin young man that appeared in his mind.
If the body is online, don't say it's a city, it's a country, he believes that it can also make the two of them stir the world upside down, but the problem is that the person is still sick, and his body is slightly hot in the morning, so he won't let others say it.
Thinking of this, Robert couldn't help frowning. But reason still let him speak comfortably. "There's the boss here, he has a plan. He doesn't feel sorry for you, doesn't he know that he feels sorry for Xiaoying and pities the saint? You still accompany me to do what we can do at this time. ”
The admiration and trust in Peng Xiu is enough to erase once again the reasonable uneasiness that extends because of the unfavorable situation.
"The Boss will feel sorry for me, too!" Melson protested! "Besides, looking at this pair of materials, my head hurts, so I might as well stand and pace. ”
"What's more, if you want me to say it, just try this woman directly, or wait for the old man to wake up and ask directly. ”
"Then you do it. I'm okay with that. The appeasement of Melson was also a persuasion to himself, and Robert himself relaxed a little, and this time he stopped looking at a few people, and bowed his head and said.
Melson looked up and down, tied to his chair, staring at him with round eyes. This is a very beautiful woman, with a mature intellectual taste, with an indescribable sex appeal.
"I'm not going to say anything. Die to this heart. Jing angrily reprimanded.
"Luo, I'm thinking a little bit about Mega at this time. He's a bastard, he can do something. Melson turned disdainfully, walked to the desk, jumped on, sat down on the table, and said with a bit of melancholy.
"That's the only time you think about him. Robert heard the mention of Micah, and also heard Melson's melancholy, and his hand paused. "He'll be fine. ”
"Yes, I know. Boss and Brother Ying, and you, I won't let them go. By the way, and the fierce saintess, I really didn't expect her to knock down this old man so neatly. I just don't know when this old man will wake up. ”
"She used a secret technique, and I can't find out where he was wounded, but it seemed to inflict great pain on Malzer without dying. So I can't tell what he's going to wake up. Robert lifted the frame of his glasses and looked at Malzer, who was still asleep, looking old and frail.
"Well, if it weren't for the unknown methods she used, these people wouldn't have listened to us so obediently. Melson squinted at Jing who didn't know what he was thinking. "The means are good, it would be better if they were lighter, and it would be good for the old man to say a few more words. ”
"It's good that she's willing to help. Everyone was actually a little surprised by Yulia's sudden arrival, but they couldn't question her identity, and their active participation after her arrival was even more unexpected for them. Robert is actually suspicious of Yulia's involvement, and she is too enthusiastic about Sunkage and Penxiude.
"That's right, I didn't expect that in addition to her identity as a saint, she is better used here as a princess. ”
"The power of the Bright Holy Court is all over the continent, and the noble status of the Holy Maiden is understandable, but the princess of another country is still here, and it is so easy to use in our own territory, which can only show that we are really underestimated. ”
It was also the man who knew their formality too well. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. But this time the man may have really made a mistake.
"What is this?" Lan and Yulia asked, puzzled by the red object in Peng Xiu's hand.
The red stone has a magnificent color, red like a drop of blood in the light, which has both a natural saturated color and a water-like moist character.
"It's a blood crystal. Sun Ying stood beside Peng Xiu, stared at it carefully, and said with a frown.
"What is a blood crystal?" Arashi asked.
"It can't be. Blood Crystal is a legendary gemstone, rare in the world, and there are only a few records of it, and its true power is not described. If so, even such a small piece should be worth a fortune, how can you just pick up a piece here?" Yulia looked incredulous.
"This is not a natural blood crystal, although it is somewhat similar to the appearance of the best gem that Yulia said, but in fact it is very different, and it is not something to be praised. The shadow of the sun picked it up, and against the faint light, it folded through the strange color, and instantly turned into powder with a pinch.
"Let's keep going, and if we're here, maybe we'll find a place to make this thing. Peng Xiu turned around and led the team forward.
"You mean this thing is man-made, and what does that do? Why don't I know?" asked Yulia continued.
"Where Yulia is standing, there is no need for such an ugly thing. Sunshadow concealed the disgust in his eyes, and continued to explain unhurriedly, "Moreover, this thing may have appeared in the past two years, and we only discovered it after investigating Duke Morton." There is a very small amount of circulation on the black market in the imperial capital, but the exact source of circulation is unknown, and the specific utility varies. But one thing is mentioned in general. ”
"What is it?"
"The exaltation of power. Peng Xiu's magnetism came slowly in front of him. "Sudden transcendent power. ”
"How is this possible. There is no price?" Yulia doesn't believe that this world has always been equivalent, and there should be no such cheap and costless thing.
"The feedback on the cost is inconsistent. Sunshadow replied. "Because the amount is very small and the feedback we get is small, when we go to investigate, some of them are in the period of increasing strength. ”
"If you say that, there should still be a price to pay. Otherwise, this is too rebellious, just relying on such a stone to get a different power, then what talent and tempering are needed. Arashi also asked suspiciously.
"The price has already been paid on the spot. Peng Xiu pointed to the shadows ahead.
A few people who were already slightly accustomed to the bloody breath felt the intensity of the breath again at this time, as if they were not breathing air, but drinking water with bloody breath.
A few people couldn't help but speed up their pace and walked towards the dark corner. There was a moment of pause, speechless.
It may not be a rare place, but there is some indescribable disgust, and in front of them is the source of all this bloody breath, a dark pool of blood. In the center of the pool of blood, there is a small high platform that is close to the square, and there is a small box on top of the high platform, which is not really visible in the deeper shadows.
"Is this real blood?" Arashi crouched down on the shore and moved his nose. "It's human?"
"It's real blood, but it's not all human blood. Yulia frowned in disgust as she looked at the pool of blood and turned to look at Sunshadow. "Shadow, let's go out and kill that old bastard. ”
Sunshadow nodded mechanically, at this time the memory was playing in his emotions, this pool of blood made him feel extremely familiar, it was not the first time he had seen such a scene.
And the pool of blood in my memory is bigger, deeper, and more disgusting to the extreme. The pool of blood in front of him may only feel disgusting and cold sin, but the pool of blood in his memory can only feel boundless resentment and despair, and those floating corpses are staring at them with big eyes, and they are not blind.
"What's wrong with you?" Yulia was keenly aware of a clear fluctuation and stood in front of the Hikage.
The beautiful face of the girl who approached her, the big clear and innocent eyes seemed to dispel the overlap of the desperate images, interrupting the memory of the sunset.
But the funny thing is that the innocence of the girl in front of her and the source of the guilt of the memory picture are such a source.
At this moment, a familiar large hand covered Nikkage's head, as if it was infused with warm power. "It's still a little hot. Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Peng Xiu asked in a low voice as he stood behind Sun Shadow at some point.
"It's fine. Sunshadow shook his head slightly, like a kitten rubbing obediently under his big hand, "It's just a little disgusting." ”
People who walk around in the pile of corpses and don't react will be disgusted by the pool of blood in front of them, which is nothing. But the girl's sensitivity still frightened Sunkage. At this time, both Arashi and Yulia cast concerned glances.
"Is it fever again?" asked Yulia.
"No, it's out of the way. Who?" Sun Ying soothed everyone's worries, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw a small white figure shaking on the other side of the pool of blood, and his body tensed vigilantly.
"Who?" Peng Xiu, who was standing behind the Sun Shadow, obviously saw it too, and spoke at the same time as the Sun Shadow.
As if frightened, the little white figure turned into the wall and disappeared, and by the time Arashi and Yulia turned around, they were nowhere to be seen. The two looked at each other.
On the opposite side of this blood pool is obviously a gable, and it doesn't look like there is any passage at all, so why did it disappear. Could it be that Peng Xiu and Sun Ying could be wrong at the same time?
