Chapter 1614: Yellow Springs Cut Off (IV)

"That kind of thing outside?"

The wooden door is mottled and dilapidated, the stone wall is dimly lit, and the white bones are studded with spikes. This scene is undoubtedly horrifying.

But for Lisa, the first thing she felt was the sense of relaxation that this quiet place was finally broken. She looked at Fu Qian and whispered confirmation.

"Yes, there is still no nonsense in the report from the ashes. These things will indeed wander in."

Before paying, he still didn't mince his words and made his judgment casually.

"Then kill it first?"

"After all, judging from previous experience, they are all very aggressive without exception. Even if we want to live in peace, they may not agree."

Without worries, Professor Lisa became more unrestrained and eager to try.

"It makes sense, but is it possible that it didn't actually find us and just happened to crawl out?"

Fu Qian nodded but did not move.

ah?

Fu Qian's opinion was obviously a bit unexpected, but Lisa still observed it again very responsively.

But he saw that the densely packed thin limbs were already flying in the air as he spoke, and the back parts were brought out bit by bit like floating.

It's really those things out there.

Along with this change, she also confirmed her judgment again.

Because what is connected behind the thin limbs is a long body formed by ribs.

And through the little gaps, you can clearly see the green shimmer inside the strip.

Just like those outside, a combination of spirit and bone.

Even at the same time, its body structure vaguely confirmed Fu Qian's judgment - it did not have any head or eyes.

The body that had almost completely swam out looked like a white-bone centipede that had been decapitated.

After going out, it didn't pay any attention here, but floated in another direction.

But Lisa's surprise wasn't this - when did Fu Demigod become so peaceful?

It is hard to imagine that such a principle would be followed if the target did not take the initiative to attack.

Withdrawing her gaze, she expressed her doubts without reservation.

"What do you think it's doing?"

Before responding, he just asked a casual question and stepped forward while speaking.

…

"It's also looking for a body? Do you think you might find it faster if you follow it? But what is it looking for?"

While quickly following up, ensuring that he was always under protection, Professor Lisa's understanding suddenly shone at that moment, and she asked questions in a low voice.

"I don't know, but it certainly doesn't look like a normal wanderer."

Fu Qian gestured with his chin, and the body had already entered behind another door.

“Also, does this also explain why it’s so hard to find corpses despite so many empty spaces?”

really……

The other party's attitude could be described as easy-going, and his tone was entirely that of a discussion.

However, in the absence of basis for judgment, people can't help but feel the rationality.

"But is it possible that after judging our danger, it deliberately made this gesture to confuse us?"

Of course, this did not prevent Lisa from putting forward another guess of her own.

"It doesn't matter if you miss a piece of material. In that case, following along may be a waste of time."

"If that's the case, I think it would be more worthwhile."

Before paying, he indicated that there was no need to worry too much.

"A creature with that level of sanity, I'd be more inclined to see what it's doing down here."

…

Without much struggle, Lisa thought for a moment and allowed herself to be successfully persuaded, agreeing to Fu Qian's action strategy.

Although in theory, the other party does not need to convince himself at all.

At this depth, without the protection of the other party, I can no longer move forward.

"Do you think there really were souls living here?"

At this time, the two of them had arrived at the door where the white-bone centipede first appeared.

Looking through the cracks, you can see that the style is weird, but it really looks like the layout of an everyday residence.

Of course, there was no doubt that there were neither people nor corpses among them, so Professor Lisa asked with some emotion.

"It's really hard to imagine that this could be as complex as the world we live in."

Looking around, Fu Qian shook his head.

"But if there really is a world after death, compared to the many legendary sin trials, I think this form is more lovely - what does Professor Lisa think?"

Halfway through, Fu Qian glanced at the other person, who indeed had a strange expression on his face, as if he had misunderstood the reason for not liking the trial of sin.

"Don't worry, this has nothing to do with personal concerns. I should just skip the trial process."

Without waiting for the other party to explain, Fu Qian already sighed at not being understood.

"I see—wait a minute something seems wrong."

The other party was so natural at being self-deprecating. Lisa could only sigh at the moment, but she suddenly became wary the next moment.

The white-bone centipede had quickly crawled out of the second room and continued wandering around without any gain.

However, she was about to follow her as planned, but she suddenly noticed something strange. The skin on her hands was rapidly fading.

"The feeling of death invasion seems to be coming again, it's still mild, but -"

She looked back at Fu Qian.

"Did you cancel the protection?"

"No."

He shook his head before paying.

"How could that be possible...or is this withering power too strong and cannot be completely stopped?"

With her brows furrowed, Lisa looked around cautiously and quickly gained something.

"Could it be it?"

The next moment she gestured towards a stone pillar not far away.

The size of the stone pillar is not exaggerated, and there are no special marks on the surface. However, at the top of it is a sculpture with a human face and an animal body. The lines are very rough, whether it is the facial features or the wings on the back.

"yes."

The response before paying was equally succinct.

"Gargoyle? But I think it's just an ordinary statue?"

Lisa felt unconfident for a moment.

"It is indeed a statue, but not an ordinary one."

Fu Qian acted like a coach from the sidelines and reminded her to be careful.

"Since we entered a certain range just now, it has been sucking life force in a specific way in a special way."

"So that's it...then find a way to destroy it?"

There was no doubt about her judgment before dealing with it. Lisa immediately stared at the thing with all her attention and quickly approached it.

"You can try it, but be careful. After all, after absorbing the life force, this thing shows no sign of coming back to life."

Don’t hesitate before paying.

"Isn't that a good thing?"

Lisa was puzzled for a moment.

"I just feel that it cannot be absorbed in vain. If it does not come back to life, there must be a way to release it."

Fu Qian continued to adhere to the principle of talking but not using hands, with a sly and calculating posture, just twirling the non-existent beard on his chin.

And the facts did not disappoint him. Almost as soon as he finished speaking, a ball of green flame shot out from the stone statue's mouth and went straight to Lisa's face.
