Chapter 2219 "The Valley of the Dead" Nastrond

Chapter 171 "The Boat of the Underworld" Nagfa

"Pay attention to the black ship moored by the water, that is the famous 'Ship of the Underworld' Nagfa, legend has it that the 'Goddess of Hades' Hel made a magic ship from the nails of the dead, and it is specially used to extradite those pure and noble souls .”

Gaina pointed to the ferry to introduce Joan and Clark.

"Oh, this boat is just right for us." Clark said cheerfully, "I don't think anyone here feels that they are not 'pure' and 'noble' enough, right?"

Gaina and Hilde looked at each other, not knowing how to respond to the frost giant's inquiry, it was not appropriate to shake their heads.

"The question is not whether we are really pure and noble, but who will examine whether we are qualified to board Nagfar." Joan pointed out the key point, and then added: "There is another question, the 'boat of the underworld' Can it also carry living people like us?"

"I can't answer your question, Dr. Vader, but we can ask the ferryman in Nagfar."

Hilde pointed to the stern of the ship, and there was indeed a dark figure sitting on the deck with his back to everyone.

Joan nodded, drove the "Hull Boots" to fly over, and landed on the shore where the "Yellow Spring Boat" was moored.

The boatman seemed to sense that someone was coming, put his hands on his knees, and stood up unhurriedly.

When he was sitting, Joan didn't feel anything unusual, but when he stood up, he immediately noticed that the man was surprisingly tall, 20 feet tall from head to toe, his complexion was as black as ink, his limbs were slender, strong and The well-proportioned muscles are like a classical sculpture, showing the ingenious combination of strength and beauty.

Under the watchful eyes of Joan and the others, the boatman turned around slowly. His dark body almost merged with the night. Except for a pair of blue eyes, only the white teeth when he grinned and smiled were the most eye-catching.

Joan also noticed that this pitch-black giant had a pair of devil-like horns on its head, and a pair of deformed giant claws attached to its slender arms. The whole body exuded strong negative energy, which made people shudder.

There are various indications that the boatman of Nagfar, the "boat of the underworld", is likely to be some kind of "night shadow" creature.

The so-called "night shadow" refers to an undead creature composed of the same amount of negative energy and evil magic power. Most night shadows are formed by the corrosion and transformation of demons or devil's spirits by negative energy. The cunning and the ruthlessness of the undead are the most representative aborigines in the "Shadow Realm".

Among the literature that Qiao An has consulted, there are only three kinds of night shadow creatures with relatively detailed information, from weak to strong, they are "flying wing night shadow", "creeping night shadow" and "giant insect night shadow".

The "weakness" here is only a relative term. In fact, even the weakest "Flying Wing Night Shadow" among the night shadow creatures has a strength close to the quasi-legendary level.

The shapes of night shadow creatures are different, but they all have pitch-black skin color, have the weakness of photophobia, and all have the supernatural ability of "blasphemy aura" and "channel negative energy".

The so-called "blasphemy aura" is the negative energy enchantment radiated from the body of the night shadow creature. Within this range, the combat effectiveness of all undead creatures—including the night shadow itself—will be significantly strengthened. Necromancy, the number of undead creatures that can be controlled at the same time is exactly double that of normal circumstances!

Because of this characteristic, a large group of undead minions are usually gathered around night shadow creatures. But the ferryman on the opposite side stood alone on the boat, and he didn't see any undead creatures around him for him to drive.

"Be careful, everyone! Don't get close to that dark guy on the opposite side, it's a 'Crouching Night Shadow'!"

Gaina warned her companions in a low voice, her voice trembling slightly with tension.

"Crouching Night Shadow is one of the most terrifying monsters in the Shadowlands, especially for foreign adventurers like us, 'one' can be omitted."

At this time, the black giant on the opposite side jumped off the boat, opened his arms, and welcomed the visitors with a smile.

"Dear ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard the 'Ocean's Boat', I am happy to serve you, the fare is very cheap, only a small Hull cake."

Gaina turned around, turned her back to Fuxing Yeying, and whispered to her companion: "I suggest to do as he said, so as not to cause trouble."

"Is that black guy very strong?" Clark was a little reluctant to use up a precious piece of Hull pie. "Can't we drive him away, and let's row the boat by ourselves?"

Gaina sighed, and replied with a bitter face: "It's not just a question of being strong or not, monsters like Fuxing Yeying... are extremely vicious, do you understand!"

"We have traveled all the way, from the poles to the underworld, and encountered so many monsters, which one is not vicious?"

The frost giant shrugged and spread his hands.

"That's different. Other monsters just want to kill us, but Fuxing Yeying wants us to lose money!"

Gaina stomped her feet angrily, "Fuxing Yeying likes to create despair before killing, especially destroying the enemy's precious things before the enemy dies!"

"This monster has a very perverted special ability. It can steal magic tools from others without anyone noticing, and even snatch the opponent's weapon face to face. Then, with a light rub of both hands, no matter how strong the magic equipment is, it will be crushed in an instant. Smash, only a divine weapon can be saved from his destruction, do you have a divine weapon on your body?"

"I don't……"

"So do you have any magic equipment?" Gaina asked again.

The frost giant nodded honestly.

"Then you have to be careful, my friend!" Winter Witch warned seriously, "Joan and I can cast spells from a distance, try to stay away from Walking Night Shadow as much as possible, you and Hilde are melee professions, and you can guarantee that you will not be attacked by the opponent in battle. Touch it?"

The frost giant shook his head in horror, quickly took off the pair of dragon leather gloves in his hands, stuffed them into his trouser pockets, and then tried to untie his belt, but Gaina stopped him with a glaring look.

Hilde couldn't help but look at the enchanted spear in his hand, his face extremely solemn.

In fact, the most worrying thing among everyone is Joan. He has more magic equipment than the others combined. If he is touched by Fuxing Yeying, it will be a heavy loss and he vomits three liters of blood.

"We have two pieces of Hull pie in our hands. It is okay to keep one piece as a spare, and the other piece can be used to pay for the ferry. It is better than a conflict with Fuxing Yeying. In case of losing precious magic equipment during the battle, the loss will be nothing. big."

Joan supported Gaina's suggestion, and Clark and Hilde had no objections.

Gaina took the biscuit from Joan, held it up with the "Mage's Hand", and handed it to Fuxing Yeying through the air.
