Chapter 43 Eternal Hunting Twins: Disaster Is Coming
Chapter 43: The Forever Hunting Twins: Disaster Is Coming
Entering the underground of the Shining Light Tower, both sides of the huge archway are lined with gilt doors covered with special symbols and decorations. There is no keyhole in sight, not even the crack in the door.
The exquisiteness of his skills is unparalleled in the world.
The sounds of mechanical gears and levers came from the stone wall, and the light of the holy stone was activated layer by layer as if it had triggered some secret mechanism, illuminating the front of the passage.
And at the end that can be seen at a glance, a pair of huge double stone doors connected from the ground to the ceiling dozens of meters blocking everyone's way.
The arcane symbols, interlaced lines and geometric patterns appear chaotic at first glance, but upon closer inspection, you can feel their perfect and precise symmetry.
An eye that seemed to be burning in flames was located in the center of the two doors.
Before Josh could look into those eyes, Ritz next to him grabbed his wrist and shook his head seriously.
Knowing what Ritz meant, Josh held the hilt of the holy stone giant sword on his back with his right hand, shifted his gaze and looked around both sides, and at the same time told the people around him:
"This is the outside of Wanzai Well, everyone, be careful of ghosts."
Except for Yorick who said something, the other four people shook their heads.
Rubbing his red and painful forehead, Piotr muttered dissatisfiedly: "I just said..."
The main hall in front of the Wanzai Well is not as grand as the surface, but if you only walk at a normal speed, it will take several minutes to descend the spiral staircase from the Xinghe Hall to the arcane stone door at the end.
However, after a while, the strange situation did not happen. Instead, Yorick was the first to break the quiet air: "I felt the lost soul..."
"Josh?"
The group of six people fell into tension, and the only sound left in the already silent hall was the sound of rapid breathing.
The next moment, Josh suddenly discovered that a spirit wearing a purple-black wolf mask appeared next to the dead soul who had just planned to attack Yorick.
At this moment, they have arrived in front of the gate of Wanzai Well. The burning eyes on the stone gate are even brighter, and the keystone in Josh's pocket is trembling faintly, as if he is eager to return to the keyhole that matches it.
Faced with serious occasions, Zendakaya no longer shouted, but became extremely vigilant.
By the way, you can also use the key stone of the Well of Ten Thousand Years stolen by Ryze to open the door and take some water of life.
"Okay sentries, now is not the time for joking."
"I'm hungry, I want to eat it!"
"You who are chosen by fate, can you help us and help these lost souls return to rest?" Yang Ling paused, "We can give you a message in return."
But when asked about Lunessia, this dark goddess with a keen sense of death couldn't explain why.
His voice was dull, but his words contained a kind of magic that made people feel peaceful.
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, another hoarse and dull male voice with cruelty and impatience sounded out: "Hunt them and eat them!"
Josh was stunned, turned around and made eye contact with everyone looking at him, "Didn't you hear it?"
The pair of fierce and cold eyes glowed with blue flames symbolizing death, and they stared at the faceless undead next to them with bared teeth.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that he could catch a fleeting shadow out of the corner of his eye, either black or silvery.
Yorick ignored Zendakaya, dragging the shovel and slowly approaching the faceless undead that had been silent since its appearance.
Several people turned their gazes and looked in the direction that Ryze was looking. A ghost, who had been wearing a robe and whose face could not be seen clearly, separated from the wall and was wrapped in a dark corner. Its shape was outlined by translucent white mist.
He did not mention at all that this time he went down to the depths of the earth to help Margusa and Zendakaya solve the problem of the faceless ghost.
The evil wolf sharpened its fangs and opened its mouth to point at the undead, but it could not close its mouth.
Josh looked calmly into Yang Ling's eyes and said in an indifferent tone: "Let's talk about it. If I am satisfied, it doesn't hurt to help you."
Suddenly, Yorick's short but very strong body stood in front of Zendakaya, and without looking back he raised his hand to stop her: "Wait a minute, let me communicate with him!"
The faceless undead shifted his face, and moved his eyes towards Yorick where they should have been. He raised his arms glowing with blue light, and the surrounding temperature dropped sharply.
It seems that it is impossible to sense this through magic or breath, and can only be observed with the naked eye...
"That voice just now..."
"It seems that the dark descendant on your chest has informed us of our existence." The female voice representing the sheep spirit sounded again.
"Shut up, I'm the one talking."
The muzzle of Zendakaya's holy stone without a barrel was instantly deflected in the direction of Ryze. Controlled by his mind, the silver light lit up, and the white stone gradually attached a layer of deep red, as if it was ready to go.
"If you can hear my voice and respond to me, I can take you to rest..."
Immediately afterwards, a very ethereal female voice without any emotion suddenly came from an unclear direction: "If I were you, I would kill them directly. The weapons you carry can do this."
"Kindred?!" Josh felt unbelievable, "Why are they here?"
"Don't be greedy!" The wolf grinned and showed his teeth, warning in a bad tone.
"ghost!"
"clear!"
"There is only a vague breath..."
Josh was about to ask Lunessia, but before she finished speaking, she took the initiative to interrupt:
[A pair of spirits that represent death. According to you humans... they are the gods of death? Well, if you guessed correctly, they should be the rumored twins of eternal hunting, Qian Jue. 】
"Hell, you can't suddenly stand in front of my gun!" Zendakaya shouted angrily, "If the gun misfires, your water of life may not be able to save you!"
Thinking quickly in his heart, Josh quickly issued an order: "Everyone form a circle, back to back as much as possible, and don't miss any blind spots."
Piotr and Aila held warhammers and holy stone crossbows respectively, and stayed beside Zendakaya, waiting in full formation.
This sentence appeared in Josh's mind unconsciously.
"They are imprisoned here by the curse of life. Restricted by the rules, we cannot take them away, dear wolf."
Wherever the Lamb goes, wolves will follow...
At the same time, Josh asked Lunessia in his mind: "Do you feel the breath of the undead?"
Seeing Yorick walking towards the main entrance of Wanzai Well, Josh quickly pulled out his giant sword and followed closely, reminding: "Everyone, follow, don't act on your own!"
Zendakaya also raised his two guns and took aim, "This... doesn't feel like a big deal."
And only I can hear their voices?
The three sentries beside him, Ryze and Zendakaya, all cast doubtful looks. Even Yorick, who returned to the crowd after failing to communicate with the undead, looked surprised, wondering who Josh was talking to.
Not long after she finished speaking, Riz suddenly shouted: "Look at that!"
Aila and Piot responded respectively.
Ryze, who had been attacked by these undead and knew their methods, quickly reminded: "Be careful! It is about to attack!"
In desperation, Josh could only quickly remind everyone: "Everyone, stay alert, I seem to have seen something!"
And lurking in the shadows, wearing a white sheep mask and a single-headed evil wolf, surrounds the sheep spirit.
[They can only take away the souls of those who believe in them and are about to die. Since you are affected by my power, you can naturally hear their voices. 】
It looks like a human little girl, but has lamb features all over her body.
[Hey, I don’t believe that after wandering around the world for so long, I don’t have any good goods... I just want to exchange you for a piece of information to work as a coolie? 】
"It feels so peaceful. Why haven't I seen an undead yet?" Piotr asked in confusion.
"I know, boss."
Lunessia sneered and said, [No way, no one really agrees, right?]
The sheep spirit waved, and the wolf's head returned to his side, and their eyes focused on Josh in unison.
Lunessia smiled disapprovingly and said, "Don't pay attention to them."
Immediately afterwards, Zendakaya added: "Piot, Aila, you should be alert to the rear. The young apprentice and I will be responsible for the situation. Report any situation immediately!"
"who?!"
Josh's eyes widened, there were actually other sane creatures in this place?!
"Huh? Why are you so excited all of a sudden?" Zendakaya looked confused, "Did you hear something?"
But at this moment, the undead soul that was supposed to be going berserk was affected by unknown factors, and actually lowered its arms and returned to calm.
Josh frowned, and his left hand had touched the Dance of Death on his chest.
[The vitality of the water of life has obscured my perception. I can only remind you to be careful. Those souls have no sanity and will not be merciful in their actions. 】
Yang Ling stared at Josh for a moment in silence, and then said lightly: "An unprecedented disaster is about to engulf this island. Are you prepared?"
But as she said this, she looked serious and showed no sign of relief.
"I can relate to your confusion, brother."
Aila gave him a shock and said angrily: "Idiot, shouldn't it be a good thing not to see the undead?"
Josh concentrated on sensing the arcane fluctuations, but the arcane aura emanating from the interior of the Wanzai Well was particularly obvious, almost suppressing everything.
As he walked forward, Josh looked at as many dark corners as possible where the light of the holy stones could not shine.
