Burning torches were fixed on the walls, and the swaying firelight illuminated the narrow areas of each room.
The players are ready. They are guarding the seventh room, holding crudely cut spears in their hands.
A row of half-man-high wooden horses stood in front of the door. The extremely strong triangular structure and narrow door frame, coupled with the spears of everyone, were enough to make any entity with a body eat a pot.
The wooden door is closed so that the players cannot observe the ninth and tenth rooms.
Yes, it's the door.
Mu Su took advantage of the fact that he had not passed the sage mode yet, and extravagantly made two doors from the remaining wood, and placed them in the ninth and tenth rooms. As for the outermost parts, he used the strongest parts early.
This also makes the players have no idea what Musu did.
Their trap devices are different, but they are generally the same. The main body is a movable horse, followed by ground spikes placed at intervals.
Time was tight, and three logs were only enough for them to do this. Fortunately, they had prepared eight such rooms.
As long as I survive tonight...
One, two, three, four, five... eight, eight players are waiting in the eighth room, waiting for the countdown to gradually return to zero.
And in the ninth and tenth rooms, it was now shrouded in darkness.
The weak light shines through the gaps in the wooden boards, and tiny floating waves float close to the wooden boards.
More than ten centimeters away, nothing could be seen in the pitch black.
Everything is silent in darkness.
Richness is like substantial darkness flowing in this narrow space.
Room ten.
A beautifully carved wooden chair was placed in the middle, and an illusory black shadow sat on it, looming.
The owner of the chair is quietly waiting for the upcoming guests.
The countdown numbers all evolved to 0 and gradually dissipated into the air.
"Gudong..."
I don't know who made the sound of swallowing saliva.
One second...
Three seconds...
Ten seconds...
Thirty seconds...
One minute and thirty seconds...
The players looked at each other, and some people kept wiping the cold sweat from their palms on their clothes and gripping their spears again.
Very quiet...
It was so quiet that they could hear their nervous swallowing and suppressed trembling breathing.
"Pay attention to your surroundings to prevent attacks by evil spirits." At the beginning of the fall, he turned his eyes to look at both sides and added: "I didn't sense anyone approaching."
Jiuyue Fuxingxing agreed, and then reminded: "It's just dark, they won't appear suddenly... maybe they will come in waves."
"It's also possible that they sensed Senior Musu," the most peripheral beaver, Lijiang, muttered.
The few of them looked at each other. Although it was not impossible, seeing the only female player in the team respecting Mu Su so much... felt a little uncomfortable for no reason.
Even so, no one dared to say anything.
Even if Mu Su can't hear it.
The powerful name of the Great Demon King Musu rests on their heads.
…
The afterglow of the black sun enveloped the dark land, and whispers spread in front of a hill.
Rustling——
It was like someone was talking in a low voice.
Dark silhouettes of different shapes, tall or low, fat or thin, surrounded from all directions and gathered in an open space on the hill.
They surrounded each other, forming an almost perfect circle. Mixed in the outline were several silhouettes wearing black robes. They spread out, and murmurs echoed from under the black robes. It was a language that did not belong here.
The obscure syllables seem to drive those who hear it into a state of madness.
It was as if they were praising someone indescribable.
The murmurs spread, turning into whispers, into readings, into chants.
Instead of the five men in black robes, the strange shadows around them joined in the chanting.
In this land, countless silhouettes are approaching from everywhere, and more and more shadows are joining them. They are all over the mountains and plains...
Suddenly at a certain moment, the ancient and loud English syllables echoed.
look to the sky,way up on high
(Looking high up in the sky)
there in the night stars are now right
(The time has come for the stars to return to their alignment)
eons have passed,now then at last
(The past is gone and the end is coming)
prison walls break,old ones awake
(The seal has been destroyed and the Old Ones wake up)
look to the sky,way up on high
(Looking high up in the sky)

(The time has come for the stars to return to their alignment)
eons have passed: now then at last
(The past is gone and the end is coming)
prison walls break,old ones awake
(The seal has been destroyed and the Old Ones wake up)
The repeated words echoed and resounded, and they were sounds that could be heard by all the players in the eighth room. They were pervasive and could drive people crazy.
Wow——
Suddenly, the outermost door of the camp was violently pulled open, and a face full of displeasure poked out.
"Why are you making such a fuss! Don't even look at what time it is. Don't sleep! If you keep making any noise, I'll sue you for disturbing the residents!"
The chanting suddenly disappeared, and dead silence returned in an instant. A silhouette turned back and stared at Mu Su.
"What are you looking at? Come and hit me, you idiot!"
Bang!
The door slammed shut.
Swish——
The strange shadows turned back and started singing again.

Amid the chanting, a black-robed figure faced everyone's gaze.
It spread its arms to welcome the coming existence, and recited the last syllables extremely loudly. At this moment, there was only this one voice left in the whole world.
The black sun turned into a back figure stirred and trembled in the sound of syllables.
The world is welcoming its new owner.
[Look to the sky, high up. The time has come for the stars to return to their positions]
【The past is gone, the end is coming. The indescribable thing wakes up】
[They will return, and humans will be frightened. When they return, they hope to return to darkness]
【Madness will rule fear and pain】
[Ignorance and stupidity become the new masters]
[Where they are, they are the rules]
【Star shining and hot, boiling and trembling】
[The abyss is still dead, cold and silent]
[Rising from the bottom of the sea, rising from the ground, falling from the sky, emerging from the abyss, they are everywhere]
[From the sky, the great ruler of the old days...
[I implore you... to come here]
It becomes empty beneath its robes, and with the last syllable of madness, it melts into nothingness at its center.
Instead, there was a shadow emerging from the void. It was almost dark here, but you could see that it was a light gray illusory cloak covering something.
——Its outline is not fixed, but changes briefly. It looks similar to a human, but is half times larger than an ordinary human. It also seems to be thickly covered by some kind of light gray fabric.
