"Hahahahaha, little pimples, we have to make a deal first! If those corpses attack you, it's none of my business."
"Well, of course." Aranza responded, gesturing to Cyril.
The girl understood, and the dagger "Day Extinguisher" appeared in her hand. The generous necklace from Jie Xi on her neck flickered slightly, hiding Cyril's breath, and slowly disappeared outside the light of the flashing stone.
Aranza, who has soul sensing, knows that Cyril is not far from them and can respond to emergencies at any time.
When Jonas saw Cyril's movements, he didn't say much and led everyone to another room.
Christina's time-travel magic is not perfect. It can only play back scenes from a certain place and a certain period of time. And the longer the scene is played back, the more magic power is consumed. To go back to scenes thousands of years ago like this, you often need to use a magic circle.
and long rituals, and the time that can be recalled to the scene is often only a moment.
But just a moment was enough for Jonas to understand the terrain of the castle.
In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't know the terrain. Jonas has searched almost all the rooms. So far, apart from the corpses, there are only the remains of the magic machines used by the blasphemers in the castle. And Christina actually also has space equipment.
All these wreckage were collected.
Christina's space equipment is a space bracelet used by many powerful people. Compared with Jiexi's artifact-like space ring, there is an essential difference. These bracelets do not actually create their own space, but use permanent micro-teleportation magic arrays to transfer items.
Teleport to the location preset by the owner of the bracelet, as long as the debris can be moved away.
As a result, Aranza and his entourage really came here to visit and gained nothing. Except for Cyril who was wandering around the periphery and could use the corpse to practice his sword, everyone else just walked around in boredom. Jessie even secretly called Cyril
Search the remains of the wights to see if you can find anything valuable.
Of course nothing came of it.
After almost crushing through a long corridor filled with corpses, Jonas stopped. This was a hall with no further path, or in other words, some kind of mechanism needed to be opened to open the next path.
"Hahahahaha, little guys, have you seen the three small stone chambers around you?" After cleaning up the corpses here, Jonas pointed to the three small stone chambers next to the hall, each with two small stone chambers.
Platform, said, "I think this is some kind of small identity verification mechanism that requires six people to stand on it."
Jonas continued: "I will stand up there with my people in a while. As for what will happen in the center of the hall, I can't guarantee it."
"Well, that's not a good idea," Aranza said.
If this is an agency to verify identity, then the verification will definitely not pass, so it is hard to say what will appear in the center of the hall. If a moving war magic machine appears, although it will not be a devastating blow to the Thorn Mercenary Group, it will definitely be
It will hurt your muscles and bones.
"Let's do this. Let's stand in the same stone chamber. This is to continue the tour, not as a helper." Jie Xi suggested.
"Hahahahaha, okay!" Jonas agreed readily and said, "Then let's all stand in the stone room and free up the hall."
With that said, Jonas took Christina into the stone room on the left, while the controlled mercenaries were crowded into the stone room in the middle. Naturally, everyone in the Thorn Mercenary Group could only go to the right.
Then, Jonas took the lead and stepped on a stone platform. The stone platform moved down slightly, as if pressing a button. When people stood on the other five stone platforms, the entire castle seemed to tremble.
The mechanism starts.
"boom--!"
The dust that had been silent for thousands of years flew up and fell on the explorers, but at this time they did not bother to brush off the dust. They all held the weapons in their hands vigilantly, waiting for possible situations. Even the priest beside Karu Ife
, also clenched the priest's staff in his hand and looked nervously towards the center of the hall.
The floor of the hall is sinking, with a strange roaring sound. It's like the howling of a strange beast when it wakes up.
But after a while, everyone realized that the hall had not moved down. It was just the visual effect of the same stone walls. The real situation was that the three stone chambers they were in were rising.
When the stone chamber stopped, the three groups of people had arrived at another hall, which was exactly the same as the previous hall, except...
"Well, if I had known, we wouldn't be standing in the stone room just now..." Aranza sighed, looking at the center of the hall with a solemn gaze.
There, there was a rusty metal throne, and sitting on it was the powerful heroic spirit Jonas mentioned.
"F*ck, I should have guessed this!" Jonas couldn't help but cursed.
There was a tense silence afterwards.
Time passed by, and everyone was waiting for the strong heroic spirit to make a move. But he seemed to be really dead, motionless. However, his body was extremely well preserved, with no signs of even haggard, only the skin.
It glowed with the cyan color of a dead corpse, and a faint coercion formed around it, which no one dared to ignore.
…
After a while.
"Well, maybe his body has not been resurrected." Aranza said carelessly, raising her feet and stepping forward. But her eyes were fixed on the center of the hall.
"when!"
Aranza felt like she hit something.
"What is this?" The young man raised his hand and touched forward, only to realize that their path to the hall was blocked by a transparent magic wall.
Seeing Aranza's movement, Jonas also stretched his hand forward. Sure enough, the stone room he was in was also blocked by the magic wall, as was the stone room where the puppets were.
"So, our current situation is that we are trapped by the magic wall, but if we break the magic wall, we will have to face a strong heroic spirit, right?" Jie Xi rubbed her head in distress and said.
"That's right," Jonas replied. The magic wall did not block the sound.
The body of the dead strong man turned into a heroic spirit after a thousand years, which shows that the strong man's combat power was definitely above the holy level during his lifetime, while Jonas is currently only at level 12, and everyone in the Thorn Mercenary Group is also around level 6. Jonas
Nas never intended to face this powerful heroic spirit, and he controlled so many mercenaries as puppets. If he encountered it, he could use the puppets to prop up a wall of flesh so that Jonas and Christina could escape.
Yifei asked timidly: "What should we... do?"
"Don't worry, sister!" Karu smiled, "My brother's unrestrained Zhuzi is here!"
"Well, Effie, we have to rely on your magic next." Aranza said, "In this case, we will break the magic wall and meet this heroic spirit. Hey! Jonas, we have to divide the treasure equally.
!”
"Hahahahaha, wait until you can beat it!" Jonas said, having already punched the magic wall first.
"Boom!"
The magic wall vibrated, but did not shatter.
"Oh?" Jonas seemed to notice something strange. He retracted his fist and looked at the magic wall carefully.
Immediately afterwards, sporadic black spots began to appear on the magic wall. These black spots became more and more numerous, covering the entire magic wall in a moment. The black curtain not only blocked the sight, but also blocked the sound. Aranza and others had no idea that Jonna
What happened in the stone room where Si was.
"Well, this is troublesome. Should we hit this magic wall?" Aranza carefully sensed Jonas' soul, but found that this magic wall could block his perception.
"Let's see how these puppets do it first." Jexi said, and Kalu nodded in agreement.
"Well, that's right. If there is no danger, Jonas will let the puppet hit the magic wall."
Jiexi's judgment was undoubtedly correct. After a few minutes, the puppets in the stone room in the middle began to attack the magic wall. The magic wall also darkened and enveloped them. Seeing this, Aranza no longer hesitated and used the giant sword in both hands to blackmail the magic.
on the wall.
The picture of the powerful heroic spirit became darker and darker in front of them, until the entire magic wall was as black as a curtain.
"hiss--!"
Immediately afterwards, the magic wall made a sound of being torn apart, and halos of light bloomed on the magic wall, as if someone was about to come out from here.
Everyone in the Thorn Mercenary Group held their breath and tightened their grip on the weapons in their hands.
A figure stepped out of the magic wall.
Strong heroic spirit!
"Wow! There is such a thing?!"
Aranza couldn't help but curse.
"Wait!" Jiexi frowned, and the gemstone staff in her hand shone with light, which must have triggered detection magic. "...Fortunately, it is just the projection of the heroic spirit in the hall."
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The heroic spirit in the center of the hall, just by the pressure it exuded, was not something that everyone wanted to face.
