The green flames illuminated the entrance to the corridor, making the dim lights in the distance seem even more depressing and gloomy. In the disturbing darkness, the "historical incarnation" that had been contaminated by some force suddenly stopped, as if
Standing in the distance like a stone statue, he turned a deaf ear to Duncan's words.
But this silent and strange confrontation only lasted a short time - in front of Duncan's eyes, the "incarnation of history" that had been stationary for only a few seconds suddenly trembled again, and the next moment, it suddenly turned its head!
The former facial features have been distorted into dark holes and whirlpools. Only the tearing laughter covers the chaotic face. It twists the body at an angle that humans can never achieve, and its limbs turn into clinging in the blink of an eye.
With tentacles on the walls and ceiling, and accompanied by a sudden, sharp and chaotic roar, this strange and frightening thing rushed towards Duncan without hesitation!
Duncan frowned for a moment, and the next second, the blazing green spiritual fire ignited the entire corridor - the flames filled everyone's sight like layers of barriers, and the terrifying polluted thing roared
Smiling, laughing wildly, burning, and running towards the exit of the mausoleum without fear, it passed through the barriers built by spiritual fires - and even broke through until it was less than four or five meters away from Duncan.
The flaming remains finally twitched and fell to the ground, completely stopping.
After a few more minutes, the flames gradually subsided.
Duncan frowned and cautiously came to the wreckage that was almost burned to ashes. He saw that there was only a shrunken, charred mass left in the ashes - this was left by his conscious control of the flames.
, on this small mass of matter, the characteristics that once belonged to the Senjin people have disappeared, but there is still a weird and twisted crack, covering the charred mass like a maniacal smile, full of chilling emotions.
of ecstasy.
After a moment of hesitation, he picked up the remaining remains with a strange mood, cautiously exited the corridor of Vision 004, and returned to the door.
The few people who were left outside the door immediately came closer and looked at the "coke" brought out by Duncan with a nervous and strange mood. Helena frowned and looked at the tear marks on the wreckage that looked like a smile.
After a moment, he raised his hand and gently traced the mark of the Storm Goddess on his chest: "Goddess bless you... Frame, this is the ugliest smile I have ever seen."
"I'm glad to see you can still joke under such circumstances," Bancet glanced at Helena, shook his head hoarsely, and then returned his attention to the wreckage, "
…It’s the breath of subspace.”
"Why is there the power of subspace in Vision 004?" Lu En frowned tightly, and at the same time raised his head and glanced at the mausoleum door next to him, "Although it has always been dangerous, its danger is reflected in the strict operation of the mausoleum.
Code, and that powerful and strange tombkeeper... I have never heard that it will have the power of subspace..."
Duncan thought for a while and asked: "What is the structure inside the mausoleum? What kind of existence is the so-called 'Unknown King'?"
Several people at the scene couldn't help but look at each other after hearing this. After a moment of awkward silence, it was Fanna who answered the captain's question: "Aside from some basic 'codes of action', no one knows what the tomb really looks like."
Duncan suddenly looked confused: "No one knows?"
"When leaving Vision 004, the 'listener' will forget all memories about the inside of the tomb, and only a small amount of information will be brought outside in the form of 'parchment fragments'. We can only confirm that there is a tomb in Vision 004
, and an ancient mysterious existence will be waiting for the listener to visit in the tomb," Fanna explained patiently, "but no one remembers what the tomb looks like or what the owner of the tomb looks like."
"Protective oblivion..." Duncan repeated this word softly, and then suddenly, he seemed to feel something, and he suddenly looked up and looked into the door of the mausoleum.
A burst of heavy and slow footsteps suddenly appeared in the corridor, and a tall and sinister figure walked into everyone's field of vision following the footsteps.
The tombkeeper from Vision 004 appears!
The tombkeeper who had been "late" for a long time suddenly walked out. Even Duncan didn't see how he appeared - it was as if the tomb itself suddenly "generated" an entity. This strange tombkeeper
The man walked towards this side with stiff and heavy steps like a corpse, and the iron chains wrapped around his body made harsh friction sounds as he walked.
Helena and the others immediately tensed up their nerves, while Vanna subconsciously leaned forward slightly, making a gesture of getting ready. After obvious abnormalities appeared in the Tomb of the Unknown King, this person walked out of the tomb.
The "gravekeeper" who came out was obviously no longer safe.
But the "gravekeeper" didn't seem to pay attention to these alert actions. He just walked out slowly as usual, and finally stopped in front of Duncan.
After a moment of silence, the tall guard, who was wrapped in bandages and seemed to be somewhere between life and death, turned sideways, raised a hand and pointed towards the tomb passage, making a silent gesture of invitation.
Duncan raised his eyebrows: "Let me in?"
The tomb guard nodded slowly.
Lu En immediately warned in a low voice: "Be careful, something is wrong."
Duncan ignored it and just stared calmly at the mausoleum guard's cloudy eyes exposed outside the bandage. After a few seconds, he suddenly said: "What if I refuse the invitation?"
The tomb guard fell silent, and just when everyone thought that this special entity "created" by Vision 004 would not answer at all, he actually spoke, and a low voice came from under the bandage: "Then
When are you free?"
Duncan: "..."
He was stunned for a moment, and the tomb guard spoke again: "He doesn't have much time."
"He? Don't have much time?" Duncan was stunned when he heard this, and the expression on his face immediately changed, "You mean the owner of the tomb? What do you mean by not much time?"
The tomb guard did not answer this time. He just stood quietly in front of Duncan, saying nothing, and yet it seemed as if he had said everything.
"...Okay," after two minutes of serious thinking, Duncan nodded suddenly, "Then I'll go see 'him'."
As soon as he finished speaking, Helena on the side immediately spoke: "Are you sure? The current situation inside Vision 004..."
"The subspace is not a pollution to me," Duncan shook his head, obviously having made up his mind, "I heard the 'bell', so it seems that this time it is prepared for me - my intuition told me that I should not refuse.
This time 'invitation'."
"Intuition..." Helena was startled, and then seemed to realize something. She immediately withdrew her prepared dissuasion and took half a step back slightly, "Okay, I understand."
The tomb guard slowly turned his head, his eyes falling on Helena, Luen and others.
"Keep your distance and don't cross the facility gate again," he said suddenly, "The C-32-E7 protocol tree is unstable."
Helena and the others were stunned when they heard this, and Lu En subconsciously said: "...What agreement tree?"
The tomb guard didn't mean to answer. He just stepped aside and gave way to the entrance of the tomb passage, making an invitation to Duncan.
Duncan looked at the guard with a deep look, stepped forward, and turned slightly before entering the tomb passage, and nodded slightly to Fanna who was standing there with an uneasy expression: "Don't worry, I will be back soon.
.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he walked into the deep, long, seemingly endless dark tomb passage.
The heavy mausoleum door slammed shut, cutting off all sight outside and all sounds outside Vision 004 - not very bright lights were burning quietly on the walls on both sides of the tomb passage, and a strange dead silence came from all directions.
Coming under cover.
Duncan could only hear the heavy footsteps of the tomb guards and the harsh sound of the iron chains rubbing against each other.
But as he walked, he suddenly noticed that the footsteps behind him had changed, and the sound of the friction of the chains disappeared.
He turned around curiously - a look of astonishment appeared on his face.
A tall, silent, dark-haired man wearing a white robe was walking in the tomb passage.
After being stunned for a moment, Duncan suddenly reacted: "...This is your original appearance!?"
The tall man with slightly dark skin turned his gaze. He had strange light golden eyeballs. It seemed that something deep in those eyes suddenly shrank and adjusted and focused on Duncan. Then he nodded gently: "Yes."
Duncan frowned, but just when he was about to ask something more, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye, interrupting his train of thought——
I don't know when a structure like an intersection appeared deep in the corridor. The intersection was illusory and floating, like a phantom. In front of the illusory intersection, a group of hazy figures also wearing white robes suddenly appeared.
Take steps towards the distance.
They passed through the illusory intersection, passed through the deep and long corridor, and disappeared into the solid and thick wall on the other side.
Duncan looked at this scene with surprise and curiosity, and couldn't help but ask: "What is that?"
"With the imbalance of the protocol tree, the folding and disorder of the time flow is being rolled back to the source - that was the scene when they set out a long time ago."
Duncan's heart moved: "Them? Who are they?"
The tomb guard who returned to his "human" form was silent for a few seconds, and replied in a low voice: "... Doomsday Observers, Doomsday Survey Team."
Duncan suddenly stopped.
He opened his eyes slightly, as if he suddenly thought of something, and chaotic and shocking thoughts were surging in his mind. He took a breath and looked up at the long corridor ahead, and at this moment, another hazy phantom appeared.
In his dazed vision——
Another figure wearing a white robe came over.
It was a young man with short black hair. He held his head high and his eyes were calm but firm. He walked through the corridor with long strides. The moment they passed each other, he wondered if it was an illusion... Duncan felt that this figure seemed to
He slightly turned his eyes in the direction of where he was.
