Chapter 12 Hot Springs, Plague, Little Knights Arrive!
After walking out of the passage, Lu Zhengkang realized that he had arrived in an unfamiliar area. Although he still forgot about the crossroads, he was already quite far away from Shangchong Village.
Without a map, it is easy to get lost. Fortunately, Lu Zhengkang was able to ask for the pheromones he left behind, so he could at least return the same way.
Lu Zhengkang initially judged that there was nothing unusual about this strange place. It was just a normal area at the crossroads, with reptiles and reborn insect shells sparsely distributed. However, as he walked a certain distance, he was surprised to find that this place turned out to be a similar place.
At the three-way intersection, you can go to different areas on the three floors.
There are usually road signs in places like this. When Lu Zhengkang came to the upper steps, he found an old and beautiful road sign. The pattern on it meant hot springs. In other words, the passage behind this sign led to the hot spring!
Taking a deep breath of air, it was moist and clean. It must be a hot spring. Lu Zhengkang felt itchy and walked quickly into the passage. He walked quickly for a distance. The deeper he went, the more abundant the warm water vapor became.
There was light coming from the end of the narrow passage, and suddenly it opened up, and we came to a spacious and bright place.
The walls of the cave are dotted with large and small water outlets carved like horned helmets, sloping hot spring water into a small pond. The warm hot spring water seems to be emitting a soft white light and has a good smell.
There is no weird sulfur smell at all, which is a miracle of nature.
There were already insects soaking in the hot springs here. Lu Zhengkang looked at them curiously. These insects were exactly the same as the unconscious bodies wandering around the crossroads, but they were truly intelligent, not dead, but alive. They relied on the hot springs.
On the edge of the pool, people relaxed and communicated in low voices.
There are a total of four bugs here, three are taking a bath, and one is taking a nap on the metal carved bench beside the hot spring pool.
Lu Zhengkang's arrival did not cause any disturbance. These bugs raised their hands and even said hello. The contented atmosphere made Lu Zhengkang very comfortable.
He walked to the edge of the pool, observed the hot spring, and found that the spring water was really glowing. It was indeed unique. No wonder it could restore the soul energy of the little knight in the game. He happily took off the redundant equipment.
Jump into the hot spring pool.
The moment he entered the water, he felt like a piece of ice falling into hot water. The coldness of his body compared with the warmth of the water, and the strong stimulation made him shiver involuntarily.
This excitement caused him to hold back his breath. Only when his whole body was warmed up did Lu Zhengkang take a long breath.
It's simply a wonderful experience that goes deep into your bones.
Lu Zhengkang imitated those insects, leaning on the edge of the pool, holding the hilt of the bone nail on the ground with his right hand, gently closing his eyes, and relaxing to enjoy.
Unknowingly, sleep came over me, but before I fell into a complete sleep state, the dream world was like a golden bean in the dark sight, shining and attracting attention.
In such a peaceful and peaceful state, half asleep and half awake, suddenly, a dazzling golden light poured out from the dream world, occupying Lu Zhengkang's entire field of vision. In this huge golden world, there was a sun-like light
Exuding a strong sense of presence.
Lu Zhengkang struggled hard to wake up, but still failed. He was trapped in this sudden dream!
A majestic voice came from that ray of light, "Do you want to go home? Believe in me! Believe in the radiation! Make your wish come true!"
Memories of the past came flooding back, and the beautiful life on earth was vivid in his mind. Lu Zhengkang was completely pulled into the memories, but he still had the consciousness that he had to resist!
Although all the good things in the past are worth recalling, Mr. Lu is by no means an escapist from reality and a waste of mother-in-law and mother-in-law!
He is now a maintenance bug, a bug! Not a human! He is a warrior, not a mediocre person!
"Come on! Radiant! Defeat me or destroy me!"
Dozens of warriors holding bone nails slashed and killed in the memory, shattering the false imagination and revealing the radiation hidden under the memory.
His demeanor is sacred, tall, and radiant, but he is wrapped in a white sphere composed of a layer of complex patterns. He can't see clearly. He can only roughly distinguish the broad white wings behind his back.
The pattern surrounding the radiant light has simple lines and exquisite textures. There is a pure white pattern in the center that is shaped like a V and has an arc like the moon.
This is a seal.
There was once a Hollow Knight who used his own body as a container to seal the radiation and contain the infection.
But now there seems to be a loophole in the seal, and the radiation has begun to wreak havoc again.
After resisting the erosion of radiation, this layer of dreamland began to shrink and returned to the golden light spot.
But in reality, Lu Zhengkang in the hot spring suddenly began to splash on the water, like a drowning person who was about to drown.
The three "bathing friends" next to him were startled and approached Lu Zhengkang cautiously, wanting to see what was going on.
When a kind-hearted insect tried to pull up Lu Zhengkang, who was about to sink into the water, he woke up and suddenly swung out the bone nail in his right hand. The blade of the sword was like a brilliant meteor. Just before it was about to pierce through the outstretched insect, he stopped.
.
The insect locked by the bone nail was petrified and did not dare to move at all. The other two insects carefully used the soles of their feet to stir water and quietly retreated. As for the insect taking a nap on the bench, he was sleeping soundly.
.
Lu Zhengkang opened his eyes, retracted the bone nails, and then sincerely apologized to the frightened good insect. Without waiting for the other party to recover, Lu Zhengkang came ashore, and without waiting for his body to dry out, he hurriedly packed his equipment, and a few manipulators
Jumped and left the hot spring.
"What a weird insect!" Several bathing friends lost interest in continuing to bathe and sat around the edge of the hot spring to vomit to Lu Zhengkang. They did not realize that the insect that had been sitting on the bench resting in the closed eyelids
A trace of orange light leaked out.
Radiation continues to spread the plague after all.
And the destined Hollow Knight has not yet appeared.
The lost kingdom of Hallownest is about to enter its most dangerous period.
And Lu Zhengkang is now preparing to go home. He has to make sure that Natty and Paya have not lost their minds.
…
On the surface, on the edge of Hallownest, a petite figure stood on the Howling Cliffs. He wore a huge, pale, helmet-like mask. The main body of the mask was like a flat drum. There were a pair of pairs on both sides of the front face.
A pair of symmetrical, inward-curved horns extend from the top of the pitch-black eye holes, with small bifurcations at the top, like antlers or crescent moons. Under the mask, there is a gray cloak swaying gently in the wind, and the cloak is tied with
A handful of small bone nails. His body is petite, smaller than his helmet, and his black gel-like torso is mostly hidden under his cloak. He looks like a big-headed doll made of ceramics.
He is the Little Knight, the protagonist of Hollow Knight, an invincible fighter.
He accepted the call and came to deal with the radiation that erupted again, to fulfill his birth mission, and to end the sad fate of being bound...
A responsibility as heavy as the whole world rests on his petite shoulders.
The little knight stared calmly at the dim lights in the distance with his dark eyes, then jumped off the cliff.
