Chapter 189: A Gathering Place for the Undead?
"Don't go down yet!" When I heard Asamiya Athena shouting, I knew that she was planning to go down for a look, but it was a pity that the reminder was a little late. As soon as I finished shouting, the screams of Asamiya Athena came from the cave. "Rose vine." I quickly stepped out of the way of the cave. A vine of the rose vine stretched into the cave like lightning, and then pulled it out suddenly after a few seconds, dragging behind it a stick that was covered in smoke. Athena Asamiya.
As soon as Asamiya Athena was thrown to the ground, she started screaming and rolling on the ground. Matsumoto was anxiously surrounding her but didn't know how to help.
"Get out of the way." Yeyue, who had just been released by me, pushed Masamoto Matsumoto away, then pressed the goggles on her forehead with one hand, and with a click, her crystal goggles popped up automatically. The rolling Athena Asamiya instantly turned into a twisted human sculpture.
After Yeyue finished her work, a sudden change occurred. Xiaochun, who had been waiting for a long time, came over and stretched out her hand to hang above Asamong Athena's head. Then she saw dots of white light particles flying from the palm of her hand. He came out and quickly disappeared into the body of Asamiya Athena.
Masamoto Matsumoto didn't remember to ask me until this moment: "What's going on?"
"Have you forgotten what I just told you?" I looked at Masamoto Matsumoto, and seeing his confused look, I had to explain again: "The place where high-level undead gather will become a negative energy gathering area. And by-products such as death mist or poisonous miasma will soon be produced. In closed underground passages and caves, there is no offset effect of sunlight and the air of the earth has a nourishing effect on negative energy, so The formation speed will be faster than on the surface. The caves below must be full of dark energy now. Although her assassin-type profession is more suitable for operating at night, it cannot be regarded as a dark profession. She can go on like this without burning her whole body. It’s weird if there’s smoke!”
"I see. Then your magic pet...?"
"Yeyue's Petrified Eye only temporarily isolates the target. Although we have always used it as an attack skill, this skill itself does not cause damage or pain. On the contrary, after petrification, the body becomes stone and loses consciousness. Originally, I can no longer feel the pain. Yeyue petrified her to help her relieve pain, and there is no way to cure her rolling around like this! As for Xiaochun, she is the boss of the Angel of Light, and she can treat the damage caused by dark energy. But an expert."
When I was explaining to Masamoto Matsumoto, Xiaochun had already completed the treatment. Yeyue also helped Asamiya Athena remove the petrified state after Xiaochun finished. However, after the petrification was completed, Xiaochun immediately started treatment again. . Unlike the previous corrosion against dark forces, what needs to be treated now is physical damage. Although the light healing technique is strong, it cannot have a healing effect on stones, right? There is no way to cure ** damage without removing petrification.
Just now, Athena Asamiya entered the cave and was pulled back by the rose vine within a few seconds. So there was nothing wrong inside, but the surface of her skin seemed to have been splashed with sulfuric acid. That look was really scarier than a ghost. , fortunately, Xiaochun's healing spell was very effective, and the burns on her body were healed in a few seconds, turning her into a super beauty again. It was only at this moment that Masamoto Matsumoto came over to care. Although he was now much more powerful in combat than before, he was not good at treatment after all. He could fight, but he had to step aside for treatment.
Masa Matsumoto and Athena Asamiya were talking there, while I ran to the entrance of the cave to study it. Since the cave has been penetrated, the dark energy inside is slowly seeping out. The purple-black mist that can almost be seen with the naked eye is the result of the high concentration of dark energy. Even in a closed underground cave, it is definitely not ordinary undead that can make the dark energy so concentrated. Bingbing saw me standing at the entrance of the cave looking in, so she came over to have a look, but I stopped her. "Don't come over here. It's okay for me to touch this thing. If you touch it, you'll be like Asamiya Athena."
"Then how do we get down?" Noreen asked.
"There are many ways, and I happen to have the simplest method here." I said and let Ling out. As soon as Ling appeared, he began to condense a small magic circle on the palm of his hand, and then printed a magic circle on Bingbing's body like a stamp. After finishing the magic circle on Bingbing, Ling walked over and built one each for Matsumoto Masa and Asamiya Athena. I explained to them: "This is a dark mark. It is valid for twelve hours. If it exceeds, I will ask Ling to add another one for you. You will not be corroded by dark energy during the valid time."
"Why not add one to everyone?" Masamoto Matsumoto asked curiously.
"The Son of the Night is a necromancer, Noreen is a golem, and Jin Coin himself is a Taoist priest. Do you think they are afraid of dark energy?"
"That's right." Masamoto Matsumoto suddenly realized after hearing my explanation.
"Okay, now everyone doesn't have to worry about the erosion of dark energy. Let's go down quickly and take a look at the situation inside." After saying that, I put away most of the magic pets, except for the darts I just released. Outside. Darts are fast and small, making them perfect for exploring paths. Following my gesture, the dart rushed into the newly dug hole like a bolt of lightning and disappeared in an instant. I followed the dart into the hole.
The hole just made by the demon puppet with Eternity is not big, and the depth is relatively narrow. My dragon suit has too many edges and corners, and it looks arrogant with its teeth and claws. Drilling the hole seems to be a bit in the way. Fortunately, I still have A small number. After snapping my fingers, I switched directly to the Silver Moon state. All the hard armor on Silver Moon's body are all tight-fitting, while some other parts are made of various soft textile-like materials, so they can crawl into relatively narrow holes.' Besides, the figure of the small one Yin Yue is much smaller than that of the large one Zi Ri, so there is absolutely no problem in drilling holes.
As soon as I climbed into the stone, I saw a large vertical hole, but there were no stairs or anything like that. Apparently only ghosts lived here, so there was no need for stairs at all. I grabbed a protruding rock in the shaft and pulled my lower body into the shaft, and then switched back to the purple sun form. This shaft is much larger than the horizontal hole we made. Even if I spread my wings, I don't have to worry about getting stuck. Looking below, there is nothing visible except a dark mist. Although I have dark vision, it cannot be used as a clairvoyant eye! The fog here is so thick that you can't see anything at all. It's better to close your eyes.
Recently, I just discovered that my quarter vampire bloodline actually has bat-like ultrasonic reception ability, but this ability only appeared after I reached level 1,000. I guess it was probably after breaking through the level limit that various races were inspired. original ability. However, even if the detection ability is restored, this ability is actually not very strong. At least I can't rely entirely on ultrasonic pathfinding like a bat. This instinct can only be activated when I concentrate.
As I began to concentrate and closed my eyes, everything around me suddenly disappeared in front of my eyes. Along with my breathing, three connected blue ripples that looked like shock waves were moving at the speed of sound waves. Spreading out, the places swept by these blue shock waves were immediately "seen" in my eyes, but those scenery would only stay for a few seconds after the shock waves swept over, and then gradually dim. Until it completely disappears, but usually before these things completely dim and disappear, my second impact will be sent out again, and then the surrounding objects will immediately return to that bright feeling, and so on, until it is better than seeing things directly with the eyes. It's easy to use.
"Follow me and move slowly." After I said to a few people outside the cave, I let go of the rocks on the cave wall, spread my wings, and gently fell to the ground. As I descended, my sound wave detection swept the The area was also expanding, and soon I "saw" a large area of caves. From the straight shaft I came down to, there is a cave extending diagonally downward. Although the cave is curved, my ultrasonic waves, unlike light, can only propagate in a straight line, so the curved channel does not affect my observation. "King, Sayoko." As I called, the king and Sayoko appeared on my left and right sides respectively. Both of them were standard undead. This completely dark environment had no effect on them at all. Because the powerful dark power has slightly increased their strength. In addition to these two, Ling also quickly appeared behind me. Strictly speaking, she is the master of darkness.
"King, Sayoko, you two take turns to cover and move forward carefully. Master, I will follow you." As soon as Ling came out, she helped me direct the others. Normally, she is the acting boss among my demon pets, so the other demon pets are all I listened to her very much. After Sayako and the king nodded, they began to move forward carefully, and I no longer closed my eyes for detection, but opened my eyes and started to activate other detection abilities. Before, I closed my eyes just to activate the ultrasonic detection ability. Once I get used to the breathing rhythm, there is no need to close my eyes again. Besides, the purpose of activating the ultrasonic wave is to "see" the road. If you encounter a ghost body, the ultrasonic wave will definitely pass through it. Shit. It can't be found. Expecting it to find ghosts is like using a deaf person as a translator. It's just a decoration.
After opening my eyes, I pulled down the mask of the magic dragon helmet, and then with a thought, the crystal lens in front of me immediately lit up with a circle of faint blue light, which was not very obvious in the dark fog. After adding this layer of blue light, the environment I saw immediately changed drastically. The surrounding environment immediately had a layer of faint cloud-like things floating in the air. Those were all negative energy, just because of the concentration. The problem seems rather bleak. However, in the picture I saw at this time, the king and Sha Yezi looked like two huge human-shaped light bulbs. They were both undead, and their main body was still negative energy. The function of my lens now is to detect negative energy, like Powerful undead like them are naturally as bright as light bulbs. I first adjusted the lens to mark the two of them, and then their brightness was immediately reduced to a level where I could only see them, so that it would be easier for me to spot the target when the undead appeared again.
After finishing all this, I felt someone filming me from behind. When I turned around, I saw that it was Ling. When she saw me turning around, she pointed upward with one hand with a strange expression. I looked up in confusion and looked in the direction of her finger, but this raise almost scared me. Sit on the ground.
