Chapter 57 Imprisonment
The darkness is boundless and empty.
The floating Lucien looked around blankly, and there was an inexplicable force deep in his heart shouting something difficult to hear, causing the darkness to roll suddenly, like the low depression before the storm came.
Suddenly, dark green vines rose from Lucien's feet and quickly wrapped up towards his body. The dark red thorns that emerged were hideous and terrifying, as if covered with dried blood, exuding a sweet fragrance that could numb the human body.
The strange vine was so fast that it didn't give Lucien a gap to escape.
Lucien struggled hard, trying to use magic, but found that his mental power was completely dry and there was no trace of it to stimulate.
The sharp dark red thorn pierced into Lucien's body, and the severe pain and soft paralysis spread throughout his body in an instant, making him scream like Elvis.
As the severe pain arose, darkness began to break, and light shone in, bright and dazzling.
Lucien's head was dizzy, and the light in front of him made his eyes squint, but he immediately recalled that he was hit by many negative state rays of the sudden Scarlet Demon Tree. He fainted and fell asleep without even the time to inspire the "Doom Boots" to jump and escape.
The two rows of dark eyes that were densely filled with heart-pounding eyes came to my mind. Lucien subconsciously inspired himself to "short-range teleportation" in his soul, ready to avoid the subsequent attack of the Scarlet Devil Tree.
It seems that the "elemental vortex" used before sleeping helps me to wake up?
And the vines attack in the dark are subconsciously transformed, forcing themselves to wake up as soon as possible?
But when "short-distance teleportation" was activated, Lucien found that his mental power was as dry as in his dream, like a river with mud at the bottom.
"It is the sequelae of using the 'element vortex' over the level!" Lucien's mind flashed through his mind, and then he tried his best to roll and avoid it.
After using the "Elemental Vortex", he will no longer consume as much vitality as before, and even needs someone to help him walk!
After rolling for a while, Lucien felt his body soaring into the air. His eyes that had adapted to the light were stunned to see that this was a small room with white walls and gray. There were no strange vines coexisting with dark green and dark red. There were no huge, evil scarlet demon trees, and there were no two rows of dark eyes!
Bang, Lucien landed on the ground and made a dull sound.
The Knight's body was thick and thick, and Lucien felt no pain, so he hurriedly looked around.
The room was small, except for a wooden bed, there was only an open wooden box, and there was nothing inside.
"So clean and so simple, it's like a single cell." Lucien said to himself in confusion, "Where is this? Why am I here? I won't travel through time again, right?"
Lucien, who had an experience, couldn't help but think that he had been killed by the Scarlet Devil Tree, but traveling through time has always been one of the deepest secrets in Lucien's heart, so no matter how surprised or confused he was, he didn't blurt out.
He raised his hands, saw the familiar slender and powerful look, touched his neck, and felt the mark of the summoning. Lucien finally confirmed that he had not traveled through time, had no death, and had his body, or Lucien Evans' body.
But this did not relax Lucien, because two black bracelets appeared on their hands inexplicably, emitting a strange light, and above their necks, according to the touch of Lucien's hands and the sensing of their skin, there was also a tight collar.
As for his Sun Crown, Fire Weaver Bracelet, Holm Crown Ring, Ice and Snow Avenger Ring, Dodge Boots, Transformation Robe, Ogre Gloves and other items were all lost.
From the strange patterns, shapes of the black bracelets, and the needle-like things that pierce into the blood vessels, Lucien judged with a serious expression: "This is a confinement bracelet that can confine bloodline power. This neck should be a confinement collar. No wonder my mental power is dryer than using the 'elemental vortex' before being promoted to the middle level! What happened?"
Seeing that both mental power and blood power were imprisoned, Lucien subconsciously tried to enter the Soul Library, but there was no sense in the soul, as if he was hidden and closed by some strange force.
"Does the opening of the Soul Library require mental power as a medium?" Lucien never tried to enter the Soul Library when he lost his mental power, so he inferred according to common sense.
Lucien, who had not given up his efforts, continued to try to use the summon mark on his neck to see if he could make Rhine come to his dream - he nicknamed "Observer", and should know the legend of the "Devil's Land" in the Dark Mountains. Lucien now doubted that he had fallen into this Devil's Land, and needed more information!
Without bloodline power and mental power, the summoning mark cannot be stimulated. Lucien couldn't help frowning, as if he had just passed by and had not yet learned magic.
"I have a normal body, a soul that has enhanced and mutated a lot. In terms of thinking and keenness, I am better than many in the past, so I can't be frustrated and give up, and there is hope! The most important thing now is to collect information here so that I can decide what to do next." Lucien quickly returned to his calmness.
In fact, even if the soul returns to normal, Lucien can still maintain a good mental state without wavering or hesitation. The belief of not giving up and not surrendering after so many hardships is one of the most precious wealth in life. Another wealth is the knowledge that has been mastered by oneself, such as the understanding of the alchemy structure of the forbidden bracelet, the forbidden demon collar and the composition of the magic array!
Lucien pulled the iron door and found it was locked, so he went back to the bed and sat down, preparing to try to study the confinement bracelet. At this time, the crisp sound of the key jingling sounded outside the door.
Then, Lucien clearly heard the sound of the key inserting into the keyhole, and then with a click, the iron door was slowly pushed open.
A young man with a rosy face as if he was drunk slowly walked in with a bunch of keys, his back seemed to be hunched habitually, but when he saw Lucien, he raised his chest and said with a little arrogant attitude: "Since I woke up, follow me to see my master."
He was wearing a servant-like black robe and trousers, and there were no confinement items on his wrists and neck.
"Master?" Lucien, who finally waited for others to appear, would naturally not miss the opportunity to ask. At least he had to figure out where this place was and why he was here before going to meet the mysterious "Master".
The young man glared at Lucien in anger: "What qualifications do you have to call the master? You are just a guy who the master saved when he saw the lack of experimental materials!"
"You have to remember that you are the lowest and most humble experimental material in the Magic Tower!"
Lucien's heart skipped a beat. The magic tower and experimental materials were only a little better than death.
However, as long as you haven’t died yet, there is still hope!
"Save me back? Where is this?" Lucien, who pretended not to understand, continued to ask.
The young servant seemed a little irritable, and his tone became worse: "I was born and raised here, how do I know how to describe what place it is? Those guys who accidentally broke in and could never get out seemed to call this place a confined demonic land."
"I've actually fallen into the land of demons. My luck is a bit bad. A not-so-dangerous delivery mission has undergone such a terrifying change." Lucien's mood was indescribable and sighed slightly.
After finding Elvis, the contactor, Lucien thought the mission was almost completed, because he often traveled back and forth between the Adventurer Camp and the Nightmare King's Magic Tower. With him leading the way, he would basically not encounter powerful magic creatures. Who knew that the Demon Land had moved over, causing the danger index to rise rapidly.
"What happened to those guys who can't get out? By the way, where is my companion?" Lucien asked as the young servant said.
The young servant seemed to think of something funny and replied without anger: "Your companion? He has become a mummy. Those guys who accidentally broke in either made snacks from monsters in the surrounding forest or became experimental materials for their masters. Only two were still alive and were locked next to you. No, there were three living... bastards, shut your mouth! Follow me to see your master!"
This was the first time he saw Lucien, a "100,000 why" who had to ask even if he knew his situation was bad, so he answered the question casually. However, as he spoke, his face suddenly changed, and he felt deep fear and worry, and he severely asked Lucien to shut up.
Lucien did not stimulate him anymore, followed him with a confinement bracelet and a demon-forbidden collar and walked towards the top of the Magic Tower.
Along the way, Lucien stared at the back of the young servant seriously, roughly judging his hand-to-hand combat strength from his walking posture, the severity of his footsteps, etc., and assessing the possibility of his sudden pounce on him and twisting his neck or knocking him out.
When he reached the fifth floor of the Magic Tower, Lucien withdrew his gaze and recalled the information he had borrowed from the Magic Council Library: various human experiments conducted by ancient magicians.
When he arrived at a black door with mysterious patterns, the servant knocked on the door gently: "Master, you have woken up the newly picked up experimental materials, I will bring him to see you."
"Take him in." The old and hoarse female voice seemed to emerge from the crack in the door.
Lucien did not have a strange gender to the master, and for dangerous ancient legacy magicians, gender did not affect their pervertedness.
The black gate retreated on its own, Lucien saw the full picture of the Magic Laboratory. It was similar to the one left by Muskillin. It had the gray liquid "ether" flowing back and forth, the tentacles like pipes and black lines that covered the entire Magic Laboratory, the pale human hands hanging in the air, the deformed holding of chicken feet, and the dissection table, a large alchemy platform, countless strange-shaped experimental devices and vessels.
An old woman in a red magic robe and terrible hunchback stopped the human anatomy in her hand and turned to look at Lucien.
Her hair was fluffy and white, and her wrinkles were on her face as if she had lost her elasticity. She was shriveled and thin, extremely ugly and terrifying.
The old woman looked at Lucien carefully for a while, with a slight chin on her head, and said in a slight fanatical voice in the old man: "Electric shock needs to be performed first." (To be continued. Please search for Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!)
