At the corner of the stairs leading to the next floor, three gray tents are squeezed together.
Chen Hao scattered the seeds of the thorn tree into the stone crevices at the edge of the corridor. After a while, a row of dense thorn trees grew out and extended to the roof.
The notes from the thorn tree will approach any creature that approaches them. In this dark dungeon without sunlight, several people can finally have a good sleep peacefully.
"Dion, you and I are sworn in!" The barbarian, who had just regained some strength, smashed his right fist on the ground and said through gritted teeth.
Even if demons invade, humans cannot give up their selfish desires.
They just didn't let the opponent grab monsters and equipment, but everyone didn't expect that the paladin named Dion would be so cautious.
First, he contacted the Assassin's Guild to reveal the information about Chen Hao, and then he personally led people to deal with the two gay groups of Owen and Hall.
Owen and Hall were killed and left without armor. In a panic, they stumbled onto the countess's tower.
But unexpectedly, he was controlled by Butler Brand and others, and was sacrificed to the devil as a living sacrifice.
After hearing Hall's story, Chen Hao sighed. He didn't expect that Dion was so cruel and wanted to kill everyone.
After returning to the camp from Tristram, Chen Hao temporarily forgot about this guy, thinking about collecting materials to resurrect Daisy first.
Now that he knew what happened to Owen and Hall, Chen Hao immediately made up his mind to find an opportunity to eliminate Dion as a hidden danger after dealing with the countess.
It is a miracle that the poor savage is still alive after so many days of inhuman torture.
According to him, he was just unconscious for the first few days, but later he had nightmares day and night. All the terrifying memories in his life were replayed in his mind over and over again, and his spirit was also endlessly damaged.
torture.
In this case, physical pain is more like a kind of "compensation" for the spirit.
Under the double pain, Hall, who was tied to the pole, gradually lost consciousness and completely became a living sacrifice.
Hearing this, a chill suddenly rose up Kasha's spine, and her whole body trembled.
"Chen Hao! Take your hand away!"
Chen Hao had no time to dodge and was hit hard by the Little Demon Fairy's staff on the back of his hand.
When Hall was narrating just now, it was he who gently scratched a line from Kasha's tailbone to her neck with his fingers.
After Hall had eaten and drank enough, Chen Hao wanted to send him back to the camp, but found that there was no way to open the return scroll in the dungeon.
After several attempts, Kai'Sa finally gave up. The stone slab used to build the dungeon was a special material that could effectively block the transmission of mana.
"Master Chen Hao, I won't leave, I will stay here to avenge Owen!" the barbarian shouted, waving his ax.
Looking at Hall's blood-red eyes, Chen Hao nodded.
He took out a set of blue warrior equipment and threw it to Hall.
The barbarian didn't show any pretense. After taking it, he thanked him and lay down to rest.
After a while, Hall's snoring could be heard in the corridor.
Wolfgang sat at the entrance of the tent, leaning on his scepter and dozing off. Even after fighting for a day and night, this competent paladin was still unwilling to let down his guard.
...
On the lowest level of the tower dungeon, the countess drew a circle outside a familiar pattern.
The ring is shaped like an "8", with a double-pointed dagger stuck in its place, and an amber gemstone inlaid in the center of the dagger.
A stick burned in the center of the symbol, but the edges of the room were completely obscured by shadows.
But she can see everything in the room clearly in the dark. Her eyes are as sensitive to light as a cat's eyes and can easily penetrate the darkness to find prey.
The countess walked to the desk next to the circle and read a spell loudly.
This is an extremely complex ritual that requires the use of blood as a medium to serve as a bridge between different times and spaces.
The past time is like films that are intertwined with each other, constantly changing and rearranging. The Countess controls her mind to find the correct route in the dangerous labyrinth of hallucinations. Ordinary people will get lost if they are not careful.
Among them, you can never return to the human world.
After an unknown amount of time, a dazzling flame suddenly burst out from Lazhao, and then the ghost father calmed down again.
The ring pattern and the runes below both glowed brightly. The countess pulled out a dagger, raised the palm of her other hand upward, and then stabbed the dagger in hard.
Blood seeped out from the wound, pooled, then dripped along her fingers, onto the ground, and finally disappeared in the center of the "8".
She quickly knelt down in the ring and recited more powerful spells loudly.
Then he took out a small bottle and poured the blood into the spring.
In an instant, the ground trembled, and the Countess could even feel the huge pulse of energy beneath her feet.
Phew!
A large amount of blood gushes out from the ground, like a red fountain, spraying onto the face of the countess, dyeing her white dress red.
The Countess hurriedly filled the glass and drank it quickly.
When the blood flowed from her throat, the woman's face showed unprecedented satisfaction.
"The route has been determined!" The Countess licked the corners of her lips, "Then comes the final ceremony!"
The rest of the blood covered the floor of the hall, but quickly flowed into the dark groove in the floor and disappeared.
In an instant, the entire tower seemed to come alive, full of vitality.
For the countess, this tower has already become herself.
No matter male, female, old or young, as long as it is human blood, it will bring energy to the countess and the tower.
But only the blood of young virgins can bring her back to life.
The blood moon is coming soon, the day of her coronation.
The countess died with resentment, and Andariel awakened her, so she naturally accepted him as his master.
What does it matter if it's human or not?
As long as her appearance lasts forever, the countess doesn't mind whether she is a human, a ghost, or a devil.
The room next door is full of warmth, like a princess's boudoir.
Diana was wrapped into a big cocoon, with only her head and left hand exposed. She was lying on the pillow and sleeping soundly.
The head is used for breathing, and there is a knife mark on the left hand, where the blood sacrificed by the Countess was taken from here.
The cicada silk wrapping Diana has a magical ability that can corrode clothing and magic equipment without harming the human body.
After finishing the preparations for the sacrifice, the Countess came to Diana's bed and sat down.
She looked tenderly at the naked body under the white stockings, just like a mother looking at her daughter.
"You are God's gift to me."
"With your blood, my appearance can be maintained for at least ten years."
"Next, I can concentrate on providing a steady stream of energy to my master Andariel..."
The long red nails slid from Diana's face to her neck, and the sleeping little Loli seemed to be aware of it.
The young female Roger frowned slightly and muttered a word: "Brother Chen Hao..."
Seeing how cute the little loli looked, the countess resisted the urge to rush forward to suck blood and retracted her nails.
At this moment, the iron door of the room suddenly banged, and a foot kicked it open.
"Let that girl go!!!"
As soon as he entered the room, Chen Hao saw the nails around Diana's neck and the blood stains on the Countess' body, and he was immediately frightened out of his wits.
What do you want to do?
What are you going to do to my girl?
If you dare to disfigure your face, I can't get around you!
"I didn't expect you to come so soon." The countess stood up slowly, adjusted her wide dress skirt, and glanced at everyone elegantly, "It seems that my servants have not fulfilled their obligations.
, what a bunch of unreliable guys.”
Looking at the Countess, whose wide-brimmed hat reached to the ceiling, Chen Hao suddenly got excited and reached into the storage space to rummage around.
