Release that Witch - Chapter 1075
[Chapter 1053 The Source of Radiance]
The guide and the liaison envoy immediately declined the invitation, especially the former, who had unknowingly moved away from the entrance. If the soldiers hadn’t been staring at him, he might have fled long ago.
Rosser didn’t choose to wear that weird outfit, “I don’t need it, let’s keep a copy as a spare.”
“Are you sure?” Sean frowned.
“The resistance and self-healing abilities of God’s Punishment Warriors are much stronger than ordinary people. Ordinary evil plagues and poisons are ineffective against us. I don’t think a disease that can make mortals suffer for ten years can threaten the body of God’s Punishment. And this is also the most common thing in the ruins.” She shrugged, “On the contrary, this jumpsuit will make my movement inconvenient and my perception will decrease. Wearing it in an unknown situation will undoubtedly bind my hands and feet, so I still avoid it. Besides, if we do get caught in a dilemma, we have a spare set of clothes so that someone outside can come to our rescue—although that’s rarely the case.”
This is a very good reason. The God’s Punishment Witch can only rely on vision and hearing to perceive the environment, so she is extremely dependent on it.
Hundreds of years of training have allowed them to judge the moisture and flexibility of the soil even by the sound of footsteps trampling on the ground, which Akima has seen on the road.
Because of this, for ordinary people, it is just a protective suit that slightly covers the ears and eyes, but the impact on the God’s Punishment Witch is probably much more serious.
“But what if…it’s really a curse from the gods?” Azima worried.
Roser laughed—just like the previous one, with a ferocious expression on his lips, “Let’s not talk about whether a leather jacket can resist the gods, if so, let it be directed at me. I want to see , when millions of Taquila people are buried on the fertile plains, what else can the gods curse us for!”
“I see,” Sean nodded after a moment of silence, “Then let’s go.”
Azima took a deep breath, and followed the guard into the stone gate.
The interior of the ruins was not as damp as imagined. The sand infiltrating from the entrance occupied most of the space in the passage. At first, everyone could only walk forward hunched over, but as it gradually deepened, the passage gradually became wider.
Although still descending, the slope is much gentler.
Within the range illuminated by the torch, it can be seen that the stone walls on both sides have been severely damaged. Tree roots and plant vines have pried open layers of brick cracks, extending in from the outside, and blocking the passage in a haphazard manner.
Roser, who was at the front, hacked and slashed with a hatchet to clear the way for everyone.
If it weren’t for the God’s Punishment Witch to open the way, it would probably take half a day just to go downhill.
“It’s true that this place has been deserted for a long time, but it’s not exactly what Naff said, it was closed because the team was cursed,” Sean said suddenly, “At least for a while, it should be full of people coming and going. ”
“What did you see?” Rosser asked curiously.
“There is a torch trough on the wall.” He pointed to the waist of the wall. “The texture of the drilled surface is much clearer than that of the wall, which shows that the time of the two formations is far apart. If it is just a temporary shelter from the rain, there is no need for them to come every ten How about leaving a torch on the wall?”
There is no doubt that the digging of torch slots is only necessary if frequent and prolonged access to the place is required.
“Heh, let me just say, as long as there is a baby, how could the local lord not be interested?” Rosser sneered, “That mortal guide is not necessarily lying, but the rumor itself has been processed.”
“What I’m worried about is whether the thing His Majesty asked us to find is the treasure in his mouth…” Xiao En pondered, “If there are many sources, how many have been transported away in the past hundred years, and transported again? Where? According to His Majesty, that is the key to creating the Sun’s Radiance, and we must not let it fall into the hands of others.”
“These questions can only be concluded after Miss Azima leads us to find the first source.” Roser suddenly paused slightly, “…I think we are not far from the goal.”
The soil under his feet finally receded, revealing the buried stone steps below.
The speed of the group of people suddenly accelerated a lot.
About two quarters of an hour later, the ground illuminated by the fire in front was suddenly engulfed in darkness, as if there was a black wall separating everything there.
“That’s…” Azima said in surprise.
“Big hole,” Roser walked into the darkness holding a torch, and disappeared without a trace.
Next came Sean.
“Please watch your step,” reminded the soldier in charge of guarding the rear.
“Well,” Azima took a deep breath and walked towards the darkness—before agreeing to His Majesty Roland, she always thought that she was not lacking in courage, but now it seems that she has a lot more than Sean and Rosser difference.
Perhaps it was this gap that kept her from making up her mind to leave Sleeping Island.
“To put it bluntly, it’s just cowardice.”
Nightingale’s words echoed in his ears again.
But this time, it is no longer pure irony, but has a different meaning.
Darkness enveloped her.
After about a few breaths, her eyes re-adapted to the indissoluble darkness, and the torches of the two people in front of her were also reflected in her eyes again, but the light of the fire seemed to have shrunk a lot, leaving only a circle of dim orange red.
“Is this the bottom layer of the ruins?” Roser looked around, and at the same time there was a faint echo from above his head, “It’s not too big, no more than two hundred steps anyway.”
“Can you see the border?” Sean asked.
“This is nothing to us at all. As long as UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com stays underground for a hundred years, he will either adapt to the environment or become completely blind.”
Only then did Azima understand the meaning of the other party’s reminder of the “big hole”. After entering this place from the passage, as the space suddenly expanded, the firelight lost the reflection of the stone wall, so it appeared much dimmer.
In addition, there is a certain angle between the crossing and the cave, so the person walking in front seems to disappear suddenly.
“How far is the source from us?” Rosser looked back at her.
Azima quickly took out the coin from her pocket, and the green light instantly occupied her entire field of vision!
From the dome to the feet, countless emerald green light spots flow happily, depicting the outline of the entire ruins.
It seemed to be a fictitious world, the originally invisible dark ground became clear and clear, and under the outline of the light spots, she could even see the shape of each floor tile clearly!
The surrounding walls are covered with bizarre fluorescent murals. It is a scene that she cannot describe in words. Its content seems crazy and chaotic, and it is definitely not from the hands of humans.
Under the murals, there are rows of iron cages, with bones piled up like mountains. I don’t know how many lives were imprisoned here, and then died in despair.
About a hundred paces away from them, the ground sank, forming a huge pit.
A dazzling beam of light rose from the pit, matching the coin in her hand, but many times brighter.
This is the first time she has seen such a spectacle!
“Azima?” Seeing that she didn’t answer, Sean also turned around, “Are you okay?”
Azima couldn’t help feeling that her throat was a little dry. She licked her lips and replied with difficulty, “We… have arrived.”
“Ah? You mean, have you found the source?” Rosser spread his hands, “Where is it?”
“We are now… in the source.”
whispered the witch.
