「Ice Coffin」
Chapter 317:「Ice Coffin」
The lightning only felt that the goosebumps were all coming out.
She suddenly remembered the stories that were circulated among explorers - demons who climbed out of the abyss, ghosts who complained and ended, or who could not stop.They are not an explorer's nightmare, even the four eyes can take people's lives, illusions and seduction are their best tricks, is this a monster hidden in this relic?
Although Thunder said that these stories are nothing more than nonsense compiled by some third-rate explorers, she still felt the heart wavering at this moment.Otherwise, who else can be under the siege of the devil, can still shout in it for months, and even the tone and interval have not changed?
She now faces a dilemma – if it is a legend that kills all the demons, it seems that she will escape from her own intrusion into it.But if the other party really persists until now, then the devil should still be in the ruins, what should be done?
After a moment's hesitation, she decided to fly back to Maisie to discuss it.
To tell the story simply, Maisie said, "We can put out the fire and quietly touch it, so that the devil can't see us."
"Well, we can't see them either."
"I can turn into an owl," said the dove, rubbing her face, "and it will be hard to wilt me not to mow in the dark night."
Lightning eyes lit up, "this is a good way, but ... those legendary evil things live in the dark place all their lives, there is always a way to find the prey?" 」Otherwise, they should have died of hunger.”
“Didn’t you say they were made up by someone else to scare people?”
"It's not me, it's my father."The little girl corrected.
"It's all the same, I've never heard of immortal monsters in the Grey Fort anyway, and if they're so horrible, shouldn't they just stay in the fjord in a small place?"Macy's body shone a light, and the pigeon suddenly widened and became a gray-brown owl, with eager eyes, "I thought you would be interested in these legends."
Yes, if you are a qualified explorer, you will never pass up an opportunity to verify the legend.Moreover, she still had a heart barrier to cross, and now she lost the wilderness and escaped.The lightning hesitated for a moment, and decided to do what Maisie said.
But, wait... you came here because you needed to overcome your fears, so why is the other party so interested in exploring the ruins?Or is it...
“You can’t wait for that basket of eggs, aren’t you?”
The owl blinked his eyes and turned his head away.
...
Standing at the entrance to the basement again, the lightning took a few deep breaths, clasped the revolver in his hand, and lightly walked into the deep darkness.
Probably because of Maisie crouching on her shoulder, she felt much calmer than before.
The touch of the ground is very wet, and from time to time, it encounters a beach of standing water.Here is in the low ground, drift into the tower rain will slowly gather down, although there are general basements are equipped with dark ditch drainage, but after hundreds of years of wind and rain, these dark ditches may have been blocked.
Maisie patted her head with her wings, which meant that there was a downward ladder ahead.
The lightning slowed down, a little tested the edge of the ladder, and then carefully picked up the steps, after turning a corner, she suddenly saw the light.
The soft yellow light came from the end of the stairs and sprinkled on the ground, reflecting the sparkling light.
After watching it carefully, she found that the slightly shaking ground was actually a piece of sewage.According to the door frame buried in the water, it can be seen that the water at the bottom of the basement may not have crossed the knee.
She carefully walked to the intersection of the stairs and the water, and her feet left the ground, slowly drifted to the door, and looked inside.
I saw that the door was empty – the underground space of this stone tower was a little too large, far beyond the above part.She did not see a burning torch, and the yellow light came from the stone inlaid on the walls.They roughly outline the basement outline at the same time, but also let the lightning see everything in the room.
In the middle of the room there is a stone platform for the erection, which stands a few figures, and from the back of the carapace and the burly body, they are all undoubtedly devils.Fortunately, the enemy did not notice the movement of the door, but held up a spear and shield, surrounded by a blue pillar on all sides.
At this time, the call for help was becoming clearer, as if it sounded in her ear.
“Help me, help me.”
The lightning swallowed the mouth, what next?
“We...”
“Go and save her,” Maisie whispered in her ear.
“The yin?”The little girl said, “But there are a few devils there... we couldn’t have beaten them!”She felt that her hand holding the handle of the gun was full of sweat, "If the Nightingoper sister is sure to be okay, I can't do it alone."
“Is that the devil you’re talking about?”Maisie said, "They all seem to be dead."
“What, dead?”
Before the voice fell, Maisie had already vacated and flew toward the high platform, scaring the lightning in the same place for a while, and even forgot to reach out and hold her.When she came back, she had jumped on a demon, and the lightning had to bite her teeth, raise its gun to keep up, and meditated on Professor Nightingale's shooting essentials.
The result was a surprising scene, and the devil, who had been pecked twice by the owl, collapsed, like a broken stone with a weathering wind, turning into a pile of flying ash.
What... what happened?The lightning fell beside Maisie, and in astonishment the other three demons were seen.
Under the reflection of yellow light, they are covered with subtle cracks on their bodies, and there are traces of spider webs between their legs, and through the monstrous head, you can see that the eyes and skin show a gray color, and there is no trace of vitality.It turned out, she thought, that the owl’s vision was several times better in dim light than herself, so Maisie would say that.
But before I could relax, the lightning’s eyes were completely drawn to something else.
In the high platform around the devil, there is a huge cube, looking away like a stone pillar, and when you look closely, you can see that it is transparent.The cube crystal was wrapped in a gorgeous dress of a woman, her eyes closed, her hands open, a long blue hair spread back, as if still maintaining the posture of fluttering with the wind.
“Is this a witch?”Maisie flew to the top of the crystal a pecking, this time it did not respond and broke, but issued a crisp knock, "so hard!"
“I don’t know,” murmured the lightning, as she placed her hand on the crystal, and the cold chill came through the skin—the surface of the crystal was covered with thick dust, and it was clear that the woman had been in the stomb for a long time.Her face was lifelike, her eyebrows raised upwards, and she looked a little panicked, but more anxious and worried.
“Help me...”
The sound came again from the back of the crystal.(Unfinished.
