Chapter 972 Sheep Demon
After leaving the withered giant rock forest, the forward speed of the supply team began to decrease significantly.
Within the scope of the giant rock forest, there were people from the guard team patrolling before, so the general danger has been eliminated. But once you leave the giant rock forest, danger may be lurking everywhere.
After leaving the giant rock forest, there is a junction area where space energy is chaotic. After carefully passing through, they arrived at the Sacrifice Mountain Ridge.
As far as the Sacrificial Mountains are concerned, there are dry and undulating barren mountains. But on the barren mountain, it is full of dead energy.
While Angel was still wondering what was going on, as they moved forward, a large number of altars appeared in the barren mountains. The offerings on these altars are all piles of white bones, and endless deathly silence emanates from these bones.
As they passed over the altar, these sacrificers who had turned into bones suddenly started to move, raising their skulls one after another, their dark eye sockets shining with ghostly fire.
It was like the breath of a living person disturbed the bones sleeping here.
They all held the weapons in their hands and wanted to attack the living people in the air, but the distance was too far. There were only some bones holding bows, and the bows and arrows they shot were slightly threatening. But most of the arrows had already fallen before they even got close to the supply team.
"These altars were built by the aborigines of the abyss. Some tribes believe in demons and will sacrifice their people to the demons. These bones are only part of them, and more are actually still inside."
Madeleine's words were quickly confirmed.
When they entered the depths of the Sacrifice Mountain, the bones were no longer limited to the altar, but could be seen everywhere.
Dead silence and dark energy are densely distributed in every corner. The supply team passes by and the army of bones is resurrected one after another, making people feel endless depression.
It took nearly two hours to pass the Sacrificial Mountain. However, even after leaving this mountain range, the sense of depression has not dissipated. Instead, it has become heavier with the worry about the unknown future.
Seven hours after leaving the Ember Earth Rock, they were attacked by a group of Death Bone Birds.
The endless flock of dead birds, a dense mass of darkness, covered the already gloomy sky. They are violent and fearless, and their speed far exceeds their flying vehicles, so they cannot escape and can only fight head-on.
Under the large-scale magic attack, groups of death-defying bone birds fell from the sky.
But their dead companions did not make them feel afraid at all. Instead, they became more and more courageous as they fought, and more death-defying bone birds attacked from all directions. The endless fighting has caused most of the apprentices to gradually lack energy and their emotions are gradually collapsing.
Fighting time, one hour.
A total of three apprentices died, and more than 100,000 bone birds died.
Even though the battle was over, the previous battles still seemed to be echoing in front of Angel's eyes. The dead bone birds died extremely heroically. They fell one by one and added one after another. It was like "white bones" were raining down in front of their eyes. "Rain" in general.
In reality, this rain of bones only lasted an hour. But it almost turned into a nightmare that will remain in everyone's memory forever.
Seeing that Angel still showed fear, Madeline said: "What can be solved is nothing. In the abyss, there are more things that cannot be solved."
"Like what?" Angel asked smoothly.
"For example..." When Madeline was about to answer, Snaffa's voice suddenly rang in everyone's ears.
"Everyone stops moving forward."
Snaffa's tone was so urgent that everyone was stunned and began to explore the meaning of Snaffa's order. Madeleine also looked over in confusion, wanting to know what happened.
Suddenly, Madeleine's pupils shrank, and after a while she whispered: "You ask me what can't be solved? For example, this thing in front of me."
In front of Sinaifa, from the mountainside to the top of the mountain, there are rows of buildings. Each of these buildings is very large and magnificent, like an ancient temple that has experienced endless years of baptism.
"This is the branch of the Devil's Monastery." Madeline said softly.
The main campus of the Demon Monastery is on the third floor of the abyss, but its branches are scattered all over the surface of the abyss. The so-called demon monastery is actually just a place where some indigenous people or half-blood demons worship demons. Generally speaking, there are no demons at all.
The reason why the Frost Moon Guards took this route was because the Demon Monastery was safer than other routes and would not take long detours.
However, what I didn't expect was that this monastery, which usually had no demons at all, actually emitted a demonic aura at this time, and this demonic aura rose into the sky. It was definitely not an ordinary demon!
As Madeleine finished speaking, a tall demon with black bone wings, a body as thin as a bamboo pole, a goat's horn on its head, and a curly tail slowly rose from the monastery.
"This is... the Goat Demon." Madeline said in a solemn tone.
"The Goat Demon is a mid-level demon, with strength comparable to that of a true wizard. With Lord Snaifa's strength, he should be able to handle it. However, because the Goat Demon is cunning and deceitful, he has always been a favorite subordinate of the great devil. If this sheep Behind the devil stands a great devil. Once the great devil takes action, we can only wait to die. "
Snaifa's urgent voice reached everyone's ears again: "I will drag this goat demon with me later, and you all will take the opportunity to break through the demon monastery and meet at the Hangu ruins!"
As soon as Sinaifa finished speaking, the sheep demon Jie Jie's laughter came over, and at the same time he whispered the devil's language and rushed towards everyone.
The demon language triggered a wonderful chain reaction, invisible ripples, with powerful dark energy eroding towards everyone. Once eroded, there is no way to save.
At this time, Sinafa swung his hand horizontally, and the huge fist force with the power of ice and fire seemed to break through the barrier of time and space, blocking the dark erosion out of thin air.
It also made all the people behind Sinafa breathe a sigh of relief.
The sheep demon finally noticed Sinafa at this time. It put away its playful expression and looked at Sinafa with a serious look.
Sinafa did not give it a chance to observe, but snorted coldly, and rushed directly to the front of the sheep demon with powerful energy, and started a hand-to-hand fight with it.
At the same time, the deterrent pressure brought by the sheep demon was broken at this moment.
All those who were trembling in the pressure recovered a little.
"It's time, run!" It was Maher who spoke, and he rushed out first. Everyone reacted and followed forward.
The goat demon also noticed that others wanted to break through. It wanted to stop them but was unable to pay attention because of Sinafa's violent attack.
Angel also turned the gondola's speed to the limit at this time. At the same time, he also signaled Toby to be on guard. If something bad happened, he would immediately transform into a griffin and open the gravity veins to speed up his escape.
When they bypassed the goat demon, even though they were several miles away, the violent feeling of the battle between the true knowledge still made Angel feel frightened.
Under Sinafa's powerful attack, the goat demons could barely take care of him. It was hard to imagine that if there was no Sinafa in the supply team this time, they might have been defeated here.
Bypassing the goat demon, they began to break through the demon monastery.
There were also spellcasters in the demon monastery, and two half-blood demons. Although they were strong, they were at most at the wizard level. There were more than 20 wizards on the scene. With full firepower, they crushed them directly.
Half an hour later, they finally broke through the demon monastery and arrived at the next area, the Han Gu Ruins.
There is a relatively safe underground cave in the Hangu Ruins. They had not planned to rest here, but now that Sinafa has not returned, they can only stay here temporarily.
"There are usually no monsters in the Hangu Ruins. We thought it was a safe area before and wanted to build a base city here. Later, we found that the Hangu Ruins actually have crises, and this crisis is more secretive and more terrifying. So far, we have not really explored it." Maher explained the Hangu Ruins to others. He did not explain the "horror" of the Hangu Ruins in detail, but there was obvious fear in his eyes.
As Maher said, they flew in the Hangu Ruins for most of the day and did not see any monsters.
And as they moved forward, there were vegetation areas on the ground. Although the trees were not thriving, they at least appeared green.
Soon, they stopped in front of an extremely hidden cave.
"The relatively safe area is inside, everyone follow." Maher still entered first.
The road in the cave went down, and it seemed to lead deep underground. After walking for about five minutes, they came to a relatively large underground cave.
The cave looked very flat and spacious. There were several extinguished fires, indicating that someone had been here before.
"Stay here for the time being and wait for Lord Sinafa to come back." After a pause, Maher said again: "Remember, try not to act alone here."
After that, Maher lit a fire and discussed the next plan with the other guards of Frost Moon with a serious face.
Angel and Madeline also lit a fire nearby and sat cross-legged.
"The sheep demon appeared on the first floor of the abyss. This is not a good sign." Madeline frowned and whispered to herself: "In the past, the sheep demon always roamed on the third floor. At most, there were little demons on the first floor. Could it be that something happened on the third floor?"
Angel's heart palpitations had not stopped at this time. This journey was even more terrifying than the trip to the Devil's Sea.
The most important thing is that in the abyss, the sense of oppression is too strong.
When the oppression accumulates to a certain extent, it will turn into despair. Angel looked back at the other apprentices in the distance. Some of them were already showing hysterical emotions...
Angel's first impression of the abyss was: no hope.
But now, Angel added a second impression to this label: endless oppression.
