"This is hell, and it's normal for the souls of the dead to remain."
Without much hesitation, Lin Qiye and the others entered one of the narrow cracks in the mountain.
Under the sky of the wasteland behind them, countless demons lowered their bodies and hovered. Some of them flew to the sky above the continuous valley in the direction that Lin Qiye and others left, and began to disperse and search.
Witnessing two demons flying over the crack above his head, Lin Qiye frowned slightly while walking sideways along the mountain.
He didn't expect this group of demons to be so persistent. They had obviously lost their traces and were still hovering around here like a carpet. Fortunately, the cracks in the mountain here were very narrow, and the rock walls on both sides were uneven.
Looking down, it was difficult to see the figures of Lin Qiye and the others.
The crimson sky was scattered with dim light. Under the heavy obstruction of the rock walls, it was almost completely dark at the bottom of the crack in the ground. Apart from sensing the direction by touching the rock walls on both sides with both hands, it was almost impossible to see the direction of the road in front of you with the naked eye.
Relying on his mental perception, Lin Qiye walked at the front to clear the way. The ghostly Jiang Er floated in the air, and the Anqing fish fell at the end of the team.
"Have you ever felt that the terrain here seems to be always pointing downwards?"
After walking silently in the darkness for a long time, An Qingyu suddenly spoke.
"That's right." Lin Qiye nodded in agreement, "I noticed when I was flying on the clouds in the sky before that the terrain of hell is not flat, like a slope that gradually slopes downward... From the time we entered this crack in the ground to
Now, it has been going downhill, and the altitude has dropped by at least several kilometers compared to the beginning."
An Qingyu seemed to have thought of something, "Downward..."
"What's wrong?"
"Have you not heard of the legend of hell?" An Qingyu pushed up his glasses, "It is said that there are nine levels of hell. People who commit different sins during their lifetime will fall into different hells and suffer torture."
"But the terrain here is not layer by layer?" Jiang Er said doubtfully.
"There are still some discrepancies between myths and legends and reality. After all, no human being has ever seen the true appearance of hell with his own eyes." Lin Qiye said, "But judging from the current situation, this legend is not completely groundless, at least as we go further down.
, the lower the temperature, if I guess correctly, we are getting closer to the core of hell."
"The gap of departure, in the deepest part of hell?"
"If a 'miracle' really happens, it will be like this."
Jiang Er sighed, and was about to say something else when his expression suddenly froze, and he raised his head and looked doubtfully towards the depths of hell.
"How is this possible..." she murmured to herself.
Lin Qiye and An Qingyu looked at her at the same time, "What did you find?"
"I...I seem to be able to vaguely feel my own body, which is in the direction we are going." Jiang Er's figure floating in the air stirred like an old TV screen, and it appeared from An Qingyu's waist.
The sound coming out is also somewhat intermittent.
"What?"
Lin Qiye was stunned, "Isn't your body stored on the ship? How could it appear in hell?"
"I... don't... know..." Jiang Er looked down at his twisting and beating body, with a look of anxiety on his face, "My magnetic field... is about to be forcibly... dragged...
.”
"Your [Psychic Field] cannot leave the scope of one kilometer of the main body. Heaven is essentially the pure land of human souls. There is no concept of distance, so you can move freely in it, but it is different now that we are in hell." An Qing
Yu quickly clarified the situation and spoke calmly.
"Although I don't know why your body appears here, you must obey the instinct of the magnetic field, otherwise after leaving the brain, the magnetic field of your remaining consciousness will soon dissipate.
After you return to the main body, first figure out the surrounding environment to see if Brother Drag has come in with the ship, and then if conditions permit, try to pass the message to us."
"……good."
Jiang Er's figure in the air became fainter and fainter. After the last sound came from the Bluetooth speaker, her figure jumped suddenly, like an old-fashioned TV screen with the off button pressed. A white light flashed, and instantly
Disappeared in place.
"Shashasha——"
The disconnected Bluetooth speaker made a low noise, and the air fell into dead silence between the narrow cracks in the mountain.
An Qingyu held the Bluetooth speaker in his hand and stared at it with his eyes, a rare expression of anxiety appeared on his usually calm face.
Lin Qiye stood aside, also frowning as he waited for the sound to come out of the speaker.
After more than ten seconds of noise, the sound of the stereo began to disturb slightly. A female voice could be vaguely heard coming from it, but it was extremely subtle and intermittent, and was almost completely submerged in the noisy rustling.
middle.
"No." An Qingyu frowned, raised his head and looked around, "There is something nearby that is constantly interfering with the magnetic field signal. Jiang Er is connected to this channel, but it is difficult for the sound to be transmitted."
An Qingyu's eyes swept over the bare rock walls on both sides, and finally locked on the scattered ashes in the sky, his expression became increasingly ugly: "It's this thing..."
Lin Qiye stared at the Bluetooth speaker in An Qingyu's hand. After a moment of silence, he stretched out his hand and lightly touched its surface.
A faint golden light flashed past.
With the addition of "miracle", Jiang Er's urgent voice in the speakers became clear for a short time:
"Can you hear me? Hello? Can you hear me..."
An Qingyu's eyes lit up, "I can hear you!"
"Exploration ship! The exploration ship is in hell!" Jiang Er saw that his voice was transmitted, and immediately said anxiously at a very fast speed,
"I don't know how it got in, but...but it has traces of attack everywhere. The deck, cabin, and engine were almost all torn to pieces! Now my coffin is raining down in the bloody sea water along with the wreckage of the ship's hull.
Shen, I'm about to hit the bottom. I've searched all the areas where I can move, but except for the water and the lava flowing into the water, I can't tell where I am now...
Moreover, Brother Drag is missing."
Hearing these words, Lin Qiye and An Qingyu's hearts trembled at the same time, and their faces turned extremely pale.
"I found fragments of his cloak and blood stains in the wreckage of the ship. He must have been injured, but... boom!!"
Before Jiang Er finished speaking, a dull loud noise came from the Bluetooth speaker, followed by endless rustling noises, echoing among the abyss-like cracks in the mountain.
An Qingyu frowned and looked at Lin Qiye. Just as he was about to say something, the latter immediately reached out and made a silencing gesture to him, and lowered his voice and said:
