Piaotian Literature Chapter 54 The Place of the Dead
"Mr. Phil, it's too rude to just barge in so recklessly" Walking into the gap in the mountain wall, Jonathan, who was following Phil, couldn't help but smile bitterly: "We It doesn¡¯t have to be like this. In fact, we can change to a more secure way.¡±
"Are you worried that this will alert the enemy?"
Phil smiled slightly: "I think your worries are unnecessary. You said it before. Even you can't accurately know whether these 'Avengers' exist before they reveal their true abilities. If they have been We can't hide, and we don't have any means of searching. Therefore, even if there is conclusive evidence that the descendants of King Allen are hidden among this group of treasure hunters, there is nothing we can do about these people. It is also impossible to doubt The targets are investigated one by one, because this project is not only huge, but also, once done, it will inevitably cause an extremely strong backlash from these desperadoes. They may even join forces to besiege a few of us. Doing so will only put us in extremely dangerous situations. Situation. And I believe this situation is what the 'Avengers' are happy to see. Since they are here to conspire, we will confront each other with scheming and take the initiative. Enter the imperial mausoleum openly and tell them of our existence. Let these People got into trouble and came to us."
"Sir, you may be right, but this strategy of luring the snake out of its hole is too risky after all. You need to be careful when walking in this unknown area full of mysterious powers." Before Jonathan could answer, Charlie had turned back and said solemnly.
"Lieutenant, you have to have confidence in me."
Regarding Charlie¡¯s refutation, Phil acted very innocently, and of course, he didn¡¯t refute anything. They walked along the way, accompanying each other in life and death, sharing weal and woe. They have already been closely connected. The relationship is unbreakable. Naturally, you won't feel grudge over this kind of thing. Besides, Phil is not a ungrateful person. He understands that Charlie is trying to protect his own life and does not want him to take risks easily. That's all.
Walking in the gaps in the mountain, at a glance, there are all kinds of skeletons lying along the way. These skeletons include human beings, birds and beasts. Judging from their attire, they may have been accidentally trapped and trapped in them for more than a thousand years. Innocent creatures included. However, there are also some skeletons holding various tools. These people may have been like the treasure hunters outside when they were alive. They are all gravediggers who want to get into it, dig out treasures, and then become rich overnight.
Phil looked around, and as far as he could see, there was no vegetation, no life, except for the whining like a sad wind, there was no sound at all in such a huge space. Within the field of vision, there were all huge bare rocks and countless dead bones with miserable faces. There is no clean place to stay. This is a completely different world from the lush and vigorous forest outside the mountain. I really can¡¯t tell that these two places are actually only a thin line apart! It was as if the mere distance of more than a hundred meters in front of us had turned into a chasm, tearing a region apart and turning it into the ends of the earth and the ends of the sea. Can never be connected together. Looking at the faintly dark red rocks, the pale smoke floats, lingering and rising, but does not disperse, echoing with a sad atmosphere. With a gentle sniff, you can even smell a faint smell of blood. It's like there's an ancient giant beast lurking in the mountain that swallows clouds and smokes and eats an astonishing amount of food. He has a big mouth, luring arrogant, ignorant, greedy mortals into the trap!
¡°There¡¯s something wrong with these skeletons.¡± Phil looked at them for a while and suddenly murmured. I vaguely captured something, but in a hurry, I couldn't figure out where the source of this strangeness was.
¡°The ones that exist here are all the remains of some age. It seems, wait¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡±
Charlie looked at the skeleton of a body leaning against the mountain wall, half-shrunk in the depression, and saw a piece of iron with a black skull printed on it exposed from its worn collar. His expression couldn't help but change, and he was about to continue the conversation. t - Decomposed in an instant and turned into nothing.
"What are you looking at?" Jonathan came over, scanned the corner where Charlie was looking, and couldn't help but said: "Oh, no need to be surprised, this guy was also a gangster from the Skull and Bones Society during his lifetime."
"Skull and Bones!? Are you talking about the prisoners who were lying in the west? But looking at the degree of weathering of this skeleton, it must be at least 1500 years old." Charlie said calmly.
Seeing the gazes of Phil and others, Jonathan could only explain: "King Allen's mausoleum is the resting place of the dead. It is no longer the human world. There are no living people with flesh and blood at all."?Can stay in there for a long time. Otherwise, you will definitely die. Even though this passage in the mountain seems to be connected to the outside world, in fact, its existence has long been affected by the imperial mausoleum, and it is completely different from the laws of the world we are accustomed to. The souls of the creatures who die here will also be trapped and die in it, unable to achieve transcendence. The blood, bones and flesh in their bodies will also quickly decay and peel off under the influence of the death energy. Only the dead who had condensed fighting spirit during their lifetimes and could be counted as masters could still keep their skeletons intact. In the end, they were transformed into undead monsters under the infection of death energy. "
When Jonathan spoke, he looked towards the sky and pointed at the clouds in the air. Signaling Phil and others to look up and take a closer look.
Phil and the others took a closer look and suddenly realized that in the flowing mist, there were still blurry faces, with their mouths wide open and wailing, their faces hideous and terrifying, and they were impacting the scene in front of them. A mountain wall, struggling endlessly in the sea of ??fog! It makes people look at it and can't help but shiver down their backs, and a chill comes from the bottom of their hearts.
At the same moment, on the huge mountain in front of us, the dull stones began to peel off quickly, and a little bit of dazzling scarlet appeared among the rocks. Then, as if soaked with dye, countless dense red colors appeared on the mountain wall. Dots, like beating blood vessels, twist and connect these red dots, and there are vague appearances of internal organs and muscles behind the peeling rocks. What¡¯s even more weird is that these organs are still squirming and beating slightly! Phil turned around inadvertently and saw the faces of Charlie and the others. He was horrified to find that the other party had turned gray-haired and was in the last years of his life. The turbid eyes were filled with rancid and unpleasant pus, and even the body shriveled up in just a few seconds and then began to rot!
"Don't be affected by the illusion. This is the spiritual illusion that you must endure when entering the tomb of King Allen. It is also a ray of resentment that has been bred by countless creatures who have mistakenly entered it when they are dying for more than a thousand years. , the terrifying illusion that finally condensed and precipitated.¡±
Jonathan immediately reminded him. In fact, he had already mentioned these things before coming in. But the fantasy derived from this kind of resentment comes and goes without a trace, and it is impossible to guess when it will appear. It often invades the moment your spirit becomes relaxed. If it were a person without a mind, I am afraid that at this moment, he would be overwhelmed by the endless horrific fantasies and turn into a confused idiot. Fortunately, among them, Jonathan has been in it many times and is already familiar with all the change processes, so he is naturally unafraid. Charlie's determination is stronger than steel, and nothing can shake him. As for the t-x, it is a killing machine controlled by a computer. Even if these illusions are a hundred times more real, to it, it is just a relatively realistic 3D movie. Therefore, among the group of people, it was Phil who was ultimately affected!
Fortunately, Phil was stunned for a moment and immediately woke up from the nightmare filled with hallucinations.
At this moment, the mist that looked like flowing clouds in the gaps in the mountain had already wrapped Phil and his party in it. The space in front of him also experienced some strange distortions, and it seemed that he had passed through a stream of mist pouring down from the clouds. The invisible waterfall rippled in circles.
When they looked again, the scene in front of them had changed drastically, and a straight and deep corridor appeared. A second ago, the towering mountains, huge mountains, a ray of skylight and mist that seemed unattainable in front of them all disappeared in an instant and disappeared. It turned into a deep and silent world! Moreover, there are many human figurines displayed on both sides of this corridor. Thousands of years have passed, and the color painted on it has long since peeled off, making it look dilapidated. But these figurines are still lifelike, like real people!
Jonathan looked at these human figurines and said: "These people are all warriors from various tribes in the barbarian empire. Because they resisted King Allen's army, the tyrant was furious. When their tribe was attacked by the tyrant's army, they were The captured men, women, and children were all beheaded in public. These people were left alone, and were sealed into the earth by King Allen's priests using evil methods. They turned into undead guards and guarded this place. They have great fighting power, and they only know how to kill. , there is no pain in the body. One person is as good as a hundred well-trained elites. However, our bodies are all smeared with Shabot¡¯s secret medicine, which can isolate the living breath from our bodies. We can avoid being ¡¡¡¡¡¡±
Before he could finish speaking, the ground suddenly shook. Although it was very slight, it made Phil and others' hearts tremble inexplicably!
In the dark cave, a solemn horn sounded from nowhere. Pairs of stone figurines disintegrated amidst the sound of horns and were covered with mud for more than a thousand years. The armor covered with rust was revealed. In fact, their bodies have long been corrupted by the changes of the times, and only a few bare bones and mud have formed their special bodies today. Before these monsters are revealed?At that moment, their empty eyes were already lit with the fireworks of their souls. The shaken dust, the beating flames, and the silent roars all reveal their unwillingness and resentment when they were made into human figurines! They are the resentful spirits that have no rest in hell, and the ghosts that struggle to climb up to the world for revenge.
Living creatures living in the mortal world, tremble, scream, and despair! Let the knife in my hand cut off your sinful heads! Let me suck your blood and turn it into the flame of my revenge!
