"We have to split up from here," Hesiana glanced at the witches present, as well as Hao Ren and Lily, "This is the Forked Road Hall. From the fork here, you can go to the North Tower, the Cemetery and
Shadow Vault. I went to the North Tower to try to gain control of the Soulless Guards. The witches went to the Shadow Vault. That place is a node that maintains the border of the Shadow World and is also a surveillance point. You can see the movements of the entire castle there.
I want you to pay close attention to the situation in the courtyard, and report to me immediately if you find a witcher coming in. As for you two..."
Hesiana's eyes finally fell on Hao Ren and Lily. After a slight hesitation, she nodded: "You go to the cemetery. If the 'incarnation' you mentioned has started to move, I think you will be there."
busy."
Hao Ren knew that Hesiana's arrangement was a helpless one. In fact, if she didn't have no choice, she probably wouldn't let anyone other than herself go to the cemetery without being monitored. However, now the Soulless Man has already
They were all awakened. The appearance of the "Big Butler" also showed that the activities of these guards were losing their regularity. In addition, the demon hunters could enter the world at any time. Hesiana had to choose to divide into several groups in order to save time. To regain the invincible
She is the only one who controls the soul, and the remaining people are obviously divided into two groups. Compared to the witches who don't know the details, she is obviously more willing to trust Lord Vivian's "friends", that is, Hao Ren and Lily.
Of course the witches have no objection to this arrangement. They are very aware of their own strength. Even just dealing with the soulless soldiers in the courtyard has already made them feel a lot of pressure. They were even more stressed when they fought against the "big housekeeper" just now.
There were frequent dangers, and Mrs. Mary knew very well that her group's role in the battle had come to an end.
According to the plan agreed upon from the beginning, they only need to monitor the border of the Shadow World in a safe place. It seems that the "Shadow Cellar" is the "safe zone" that Hesiana mentioned before.
"How do we keep in touch?" a witch asked.
Hesiana waved her hand and condensed several blood-red crystals: "Use these blood drop fragments, inject magic power into them, and you can speak. Everyone holding the fragments can hear it. But be careful when using them, these fragments are easy to
Being disturbed..."
As soon as Hao Ren saw this situation, he opened the portable space and took out several communicators: "Let's just use these."
Hesiana took the communicator handed over by Hao Ren and played with the small silver-white metal square curiously, feeling it was quite delicate: "What is this?"
"The function is similar to your gem, but it is much better than that thing. It can not only transmit sound but also pictures, and it is not afraid of interference and does not require magic power. You see there is a button here. After pressing it, you can activate your mind.
Interaction, direct brain control, can be used by anyone with more intelligence than a monkey..."
Hesiana looked at the projection picture that appeared above the communicator in surprise. When she looked at Hao Ren, her eyes became even more curious: "You don't think this thing is also witchcraft, do you? You dug Odin's grave?"
Or dig up the tomb of Zeus?"
"Why do you say that?"
"Such an exquisite and magical thing is a heritage from the mythical age at first glance, and this shiny style is either from Olympus or Asgard... But then again, their things seem to be too
Not so refined..."
Hao Renxin said that he had indeed dug up the ancestral graves of these two major "gods", and even allocated the homesteads of the entire Nordic god system to build factories, but he certainly couldn't say this clearly. Anyway, the little bat spirit was willing to take the initiative to build a factory.
He also likes to think about direction, and it goes without saying that he used similar words to induce the other party, so he nodded at the moment: "Absolutely. You see, Vivian and I are friends. Vivian was friends with Odin and Zeus back then.
The relationship is not bad, we thought it was a fateful friendship back in the mythical age, so it doesn’t matter if I have the inheritance of those two families..."
"Because of our fateful friendship, you dug up all the ancestors' graves?" The little bat spirit rolled his eyes, "No wonder I thought from the beginning that you were definitely not the human wizard those witches were talking about... How could human wizards be like this back then?
High status. So you are most likely a silver wizard from Mesopotamia, right? Tsk, your identity is kept very closely guarded."
Hao Ren looked at the sky: "It's okay if you understand it this way."
"Okay, everyone, please bring this... communicator," Hesiana waved her hand, indicating that she had no intention of further investigating Hao Ren's identity, and at the same time motioned to the witches to pick up the communicator, "Go that way to the Shadow Cellar.
When you get to the end of that door, you will see an oak door with a black whirlpool. Go in and go down the stairs. Take the door on the other side of the cemetery area. Every fork you see is to the right.
Turn around until a wall made of thorns and roses appears in front of you. The wall of roses is an illusion. As long as you are determined and walk straight over, I think you two should not be able to handle this challenge. I will directly
Head to the North Tower, which is closest to here. If all goes well, I will gain control before you each reach your destination."
The witch Helen asked with some worry: "Won't we encounter the soulless again?"
"The Great Butler has just been defeated by us. Its 'death' will temporarily suppress the activities of the soulless guards within the inner court. Its resurrection is slower than other soulless ones, so you still have at least half an hour. If you
If you can't reach the Shadow Crypt yet, then you can just fend for yourself. There is no need for trash to survive in a place like this."
Hesiana's emotionless words made all the witches tremble. Lady Mary did not dare to say any more and hurriedly led her people out of the hall through one of the three doors.
"Let's go this way," Hao Ren pulled Lily and prepared to set off, not forgetting to tell the little bat, "You have to be careful, I can see that seizing control of the Soulless Guards is not as simple as you said.
.”
"It does take a lot of trouble, but I'm 100% sure," Hesiana smiled, then frowned slightly at Hasselblad, who was still being carried on Lily's shoulders, "You really plan to take this guy with you.
?I don’t understand what you are planning, but when you get to the cemetery, you are likely to encounter huge dangers. In my opinion, this demon hunter is completely a burden at this moment."
Almost before Hesiana finished speaking, Hasselblad's body suddenly shook. However, before the unlucky old hunter could speak this time, he saw Lily holding the alloy sword with her free right hand.
Yuanyuan patted him: "Hey!!"
"boom!!!"
Hao Ren couldn't help but feel excited: "Lily, you don't have to be so active and let him come in handy later!"
After saying that, he nodded to Hesiana: "Don't worry, this demon hunter is really useful. Then let's say goodbye and keep in touch if anything happens."
Then, without waiting for the little bat to react, he took Lily and strode towards the passage leading to the cemetery.
After the leader of the Inner Guards, the "Grand Steward," fell, nearly half of the castle became quiet.
Soulless people no longer emerge from the murals and sculptures, and malicious limbs and swords and weapons no longer appear suddenly from the shadows. This castle deep in the shadows, created by Vivian's dream, seems to be completely frozen.
It became a black-and-white silent film, and the deep corridor without any color was silent. If Hao Ren and Lily's quick steps hadn't finally broken the silence, this world would have made people go crazy.
The two of them ran quickly in the seemingly endless corridor, passing some weird rooms from time to time on both sides of them: the doors of those rooms were wide open, and there were strange scenes inside. Hao Ren saw it out of the corner of his eye.
Some rooms are filled with large and small mirrors, others are filled with men and women in formal attire, as if they are holding a banquet but standing expressionless, and some rooms are filled with gold, silver, treasures or fine wine.
Delicious food, in the most bizarre room, Hao Ren even saw an ocean, a gray-white ocean, rising and falling silently, and the Viking's dragon-headed ship riding the wind and waves on the sea. The sight of the rolling waves almost made Lily lose consciousness.
Walk into the room.
"Don't walk into any room," Hesiana's voice came from the communicator. "Most rooms lead to nightmares or deeper shadow worlds. No one can come out of there alive. In the past two hundred years,
There are countless unlucky people who have entered this world by accident, including several werewolves and blood servants who were sent in by Harron as 'sacrifice'. They have all become part of these rooms.
Suffering eternal torment and regret before waking up."
"Where are you now?" Hao Ren asked.
"I have arrived at the North Tower and am unlocking the first shadow mystery lock," Hesiana replied. "Next, I will concentrate on dealing with the things here. If there is no situation, I will not talk to you."
"We have already seen the door to the shadow cellar," Witch Helen also said on the communicator. "It was so dangerous. Just now Jinna lost her mind after seeing a mirror in a room and almost walked in."
Hao Ren and Lily ran quickly for a while, and finally walked out of the corridor and came to an open foyer.
In front of the entrance hall, twisted thorns and black roses intertwined to form a daunting-looking barrier, with bones beneath it.
