The second floor of the basement is a prison. According to Heidi, this was once a place for imprisoning blasphemers. However, in peaceful times, the decorative effect here is often greater than the actual effect, so the prison is not too big. In total,
There are ten small rooms, distributed in a ring.
Half Apple quickly found the secret door, which led to the underground passage connecting the entire Spinal Castle - this was originally one of the many fortifications in the castle, but was later used by the fallen lord to perform his evil rituals.
.
The number of monsters in the underground passage is even denser, especially the undead creatures that seep down from the ground, almost filling the entire tunnel.
Xiao Fen and his party had to clean up all the way. When they reached the entrance to the deeper cave, Ning Xue and Sophia had almost used up all the magic and exorcism abilities they could use, and not a single soul died in their hands.
One thousand also has eight hundred.
"I've upgraded!" The little girl was wielding a long sword with both hands to stab a demon in front of her. Suddenly, a burst of white light broke out from her body, which represented an upgrade. She couldn't help being surprised and happy, and even ignored the attack of the enemy in front.
.
"Be careful, little fool!" Xiao Fen pushed away the little girl who was immersed in joy. With a move of his left hand, a Ma Youfu acid arrow made of energy came out of his hand and shot the demon's eyes right through...
The little girl was frightened. She murmured an apology: "I...I...I'm sorry, oh...thank you."
"Hurry into the hole!" Half Apple shouted from behind, and the undead kept coming, making it impossible to kill them.
Xiao Fen nodded to the little girl, and then quickly retreated into the deep cave with everyone. Strangely enough, the undead seemed to have a special fear of this cave, and they actually gathered outside the cave and did not dare to enter...
Of course, don't even think about going out.
Heidi looked around, showing a slightly excited and uneasy expression.
"Is this right here? This cave?" Xiao Fen asked.
Heidi nodded and said, "The altar is in this cave...Thank you." As she said that, she bit her lip.
Xiao Fen glanced at the darkness deep in the cave and thought to himself: "Maybe there should be demon-type monsters here?" As soon as this idea came up, a high-frequency chirping sound immediately came from the depths of the cave, followed by pieces of
Creatures that looked like lumps of flesh surged out of the darkness. Due to their extremely large numbers, they looked like a wavy sea of flesh from a distance.
Although the meat ball creature only had vague limbs, it moved extremely fast and quickly reached a place not too far away from everyone...
"Oh my God! What is that!" Because Wrought Iron had dark vision, he could spot these things from a long distance.
"How disgusting!" Ke'er frowned and took out an arrow and placed it on the compound long bow.
"Is this... is this also an undead creature?" The little girl waved the sword in her hand and asked eagerly.
Half Apple shook his head and said: "These things are demons!"
"Devil? That is also an evil thing... I will definitely teach them how to be a good person!"
Quiet Snow was so amused by Sophia's boastful words that she couldn't help turning her head and snickering. She chuckled and said, "My sister is so naive."
"This is called a manifestation of strength, right?" Before the little girl, Half Apple replied teasingly: "I knew you were going to answer like this, yes, I am a genius."
Her lines were snatched away, and the little girl snorted bitterly and stopped talking.
"This is a lemure, not too powerful... Sophia, do you want us all to give you a chance to perform by yourself?" Xiao Fen stared at the sea of flesh and blood pouring out, half-smiling but not smiling.
question.
Sophia took a closer look at the squirming piles of meat, and couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. She quickly used her coquettish skills and said: "Ignore you! I asked you all to bully me, huh!"
"Haha!" Xiao Fen laughed loudly, and at the same time released a smelly cloud spell in front of everyone. All the lemures who were close to the foul-smelling green gas fell to the ground one after another and fell into a deep coma - to deal with such low-level people
Movies of monsters are the mage's specialty.
"Everyone, let's switch to long-range weapons and shoot!" As he said that, he took the lead and took off the crossbow, aiming at the lemures who were stunned by the smell, and fired fiercely. Although the accuracy is not very good, it is better because of the high attack density, plus the
The target was stunned like a dead pig, and a dozen of them were shot to death with one shot of crossbow arrows.
The long-range intensive attacks of eight people were indeed fierce, but there were too many monsters. The darkness deep in the cave was like an endless black hole, spitting out more demons continuously. At first, they were just evil demons delivering food. Slowly,
Some more advanced imps were mixed in with them. Although they still couldn't get close to Xiao Fen and others, the smelly cloud technique would eventually dissipate, and there were not many arrows left in everyone's hands.
"This won't work!" Xiao Fen was secretly worried.
Just as he was anxious, the scene changed again. After the imp, several Osei demons jumped out. This thing is not on the same level as the imps and lemures. The Osei demons belong to the Batzu demon clan and are immune to fire magic.
It can reduce damage to a variety of attacks, and it can use some simple magic and summon companions. So as soon as the thing came on the scene, the defense lines of Xiao Fen and others were immediately scattered.
"You attack the Osei demons, I'll get rid of the other low-level demons first!" Seeing that the situation was not going well, Xiao Fen hurriedly shouted.
As he spoke, he chanted a spell and raised his hand to shoot a fireball. The burning fireball accurately hit the center of the monster and exploded into a huge flame. The rolling heat wave centered on the explosion point and swept out in all directions, even far away.
The adventurers near the cave entrance were forced to take a few steps back.
The magic flame does not need fuel. It then burns with the help of the air. Screams are heard from the fire. Everyone only sees the rows of experience jumping in the battle log, and they know how many demons died this time.
Under attack.
"Yeah!" Sophia half-covered her eyes with her small white hands, stepped back and leaned against the cold stone wall of the cave, then blinked her beautiful eyes and stared at Xiao Fen in admiration.
Wrought Iron, who was carrying the crossbow behind him, danced with excitement, as if he had sent the fireball. He laughed and said: "Hey, the fireball technique is really enjoyable... Tsk, tsk, he is indeed the number one mage in Canaan. I guess the entire Osla
You are the only one in the area who knows this."
Xiao Fen shook his head. Now no more than a month ago, at least there is another level 5 mage in the level rankings - Fengyun. Although his absolute experience is not as high as his own, he should have learned the level 3 magic fireball technique at least.
"Be careful with Osei, this guy is not afraid of fire!" he warned.
Sure enough, four Osei demons soon jumped out of the sea of burning fire. Apart from being a little black on their bodies, there were no wounds at all. They were indeed monsters immune to fire.
"On the wild rocks!" Xiao Fen ordered.
Barbarian Stone immediately waved his double-headed giant ax to kill him. The barbarian's charge was terrifying. The Osei Demon did not dare to confront its attack, so he had to scatter and avoid it. However, Barbarian Stone did not give them this opportunity, and seized the opportunity to kill them.
He gave one of the Osei demons a hard blow with an axe.
The Osei demon screamed, half of its 100% life lost, and its companions took this opportunity to prepare to go around behind the wild rocks and launch an attack.
But of course the adventurers would not give them this chance. Sophia shouted angrily, blocking the path of another Osei Demon with her long sword, and then started killing one monster at a time...
Quiet Snow used the Level 2 Monster Summoning Technique to summon two Fermi worker ants to kill the third Osei Demon, while Keer nailed the fourth Osei Demon to the ground with a heavy arrow strike...
The battle ended quickly, and everyone was left with some small wounds, but these injuries were nothing and they would heal automatically in a few minutes.
After timidly packing up the loot scattered on the battlefield - some coins and gems, everyone continued to move forward without encountering any obstacles on the way, so it didn't take long before they arrived at the altar pointed by the ghost girl. Surrounding this altar were placed magic symbols.
These gems emit light red light, and the hazy red light clearly outlines the entire altar.
This is an exquisite altar. The outstanding stonemasonry technology can be said to be the work of dwarves or gnomes, and the finely poured mithril talisman was completed by the top magic craftsmen. The entire altar exudes a
A mysterious aura - only more mysterious is a skeleton on the altar and the blood-stained parchment in the hands of the skeleton.
"The dagger is pierced through the heart. This is a standard move for sacrifice... Well, this is probably the sacrifice." Half Apple looked at the skeleton and commented indifferently.
"Little man, are you looking for death again?" Sophia's gnashing voice came from behind.
"Oh... I'm sorry, Miss Heidi! I forgot that this was you." Half Apple quickly turned around and apologized to Heidi behind Xiao Fen.
Heidi's expression changed and she hesitated: "No...it's nothing."
Quiet Snow gently patted Heidi's shoulder to express comfort, and then she used a curse removal on the bones and scrolls, forever removing the curse that had haunted the girl for a hundred years.
Heidi stared blankly at the broken bones and the blood-stained scroll, as if she was thinking or recalling something, showing an expression of pain and reminiscence. After a long while, she came back to her senses and gave everyone a deep look.
He bowed, tears rolled down his face, and said in a grateful tone: "...Thank you, thank you all!"
"Congratulations to the player for completing the 'Freedom of the Soul' mission, gaining 10,000 experience points and increasing reputation by 10 points." Xiao Fen immediately heard the sweetest reminder from the system. Of course, at the same time, a white light flashed on his body - he was upgraded!
Choosing 'Spell Distance Increase', which increases the range of magic's influence, as a new specialty, Xiao Fen couldn't help but check his own attributes. Since his physique was pretty good and his life had reached 37 points, he believed that as long as it wasn't instant death magic or
It is a super monster, and it is generally difficult to kill itself instantly. It can also use as many as 18 spells, which is basically enough to meet the needs of a day.
"As long as you upgrade to another level, you can use level 4 spells." He thought to himself.
After so much trouble, several adventurers have basically been upgraded, especially the little girl who has just been upgraded. Naturally, she is very happy to cross the level again and reach more than half the height of level 5. As for the poet Yun at level 3
, it directly jumps from level 2 to level 5...
But the little girl didn't jump for joy because of this. On the contrary, she frowned and comforted Heidi who was crying... How can I put it, I can only say that this girl is too innocent.
"I'm fine, I'm just so happy, thank you." Heidi put away her tears, held Sophia's little hand in hers and patted it.
"Sister, are you leaving?" Sophia asked.
Heidi nodded.
"Is it okay if you don't leave?" The little girl's face turned dark, her eyes were red, her big eyes were blinking and she was about to shed tears.
Half Apple almost stumbled and fell to the ground when he heard the little girl's words. He wondered if the little girl had to follow the procedures when re-anthropomorphizing NPPC... It can only be said that it is a little more free than the previous game.
There is no need to read a sentence over and over again according to the script.
Heidi smiled slightly: "Silly sister, my sister has been trapped for a hundred years... You should be happy for me to be able to leave today."
"Well..." Sophia sniffed hard, finally keeping her tears from falling.
Hearing this, Half Apple suddenly smiled strangely, and Xiao Fen happened to see this scene. He frowned in confusion, but couldn't figure out what bad idea this guy was having.
At this time, Heidi quietly glanced at each adventurer one by one. Although everyone knew that she was an NPC, the gratitude in her eyes still made everyone feel proud and happy.
"Thank you!" She repeated this sentence again, but said it extremely solemnly.
"I'm leaving...but I have one more request. My heroes, can you help me complete it?" Heidi's eyes were full of solemnity.
Having just completed a high-level task, everyone who was bursting with confidence naturally nodded subconsciously. Xiao Fen, who seemed to be the only one who was still calm, originally wanted to stop him, but at this time, Half Apple reached out from behind and pulled his robe.
, shook his head at him.
"This request will be difficult to fulfill. I hope everyone will consider it carefully... Now you are my best friends, and I don't want you to get hurt." Biting her lip, Heidi actually poured cold water on the adventurers herself.
Everyone woke up at this time and focused their attention on Xiao Fen.
Xiao Fen was still thinking about the meaning of half an apple at this time. Although he believed in his own judgment, he also cared very much about the opinions of the halflings - as one of the few closed beta players, half an apple didn't usually have a playful smile.
It's true, but it has proven its value time and time again at critical moments. Under normal circumstances, half an apple will not interfere in its own choices, unless...
He smiled slightly, raised his head and nodded gently to Heidi.
"Please continue, my lady." Xiao Fen replied in a noble tone.
Heidi's eyes showed a mixture of admiration and excitement, but she tried her best to remain calm and said: "It's like this, the Lord of Spinal Castle himself is not a heinous person, although... although he may be blinded by hatred for a moment
With his eyes, he made a mistake that was outraged by both humans and gods...but...but..."
"You mean the lord of Spinal Castle is still alive?" Xiao Fen gasped.
Heidi nodded, then shook her head, "Strictly speaking, he... is dead, but the devil imprisoned his soul and made him exist in this world in a form composed of hatred and resentment...,
This way of existence is a kind of suffering for him, or a kind of torture, so... I want to ask you to free him and let his soul rest in peace."
