The sun is high

Chapter 56 Invitation from the Dead

Although Shuge had seen many scenes in the Dream Sanctuary that were beyond common sense, when he saw these eyeballs emerging from the dark sludge-like existence, he still felt an unprecedented impact.

The magic disk in the spiritual world trembled violently, and then the interlocking precision gears immediately began to operate crazily, and the dark green crystal deeply embedded in the center of the metal disk was like a repairman at this moment. His own heart was beating non-stop, so one stream of dark magic power was transported to the surrounding magic grooves.

Shuge didn't know what this change meant.

He only knew that he must be in great trouble now.

That mass directly filled the entire sewer, and was constantly crushing and approaching in this direction. It was definitely not something that I could deal with now. What made me even more desperate was that I had no way out now - Salem The city's sealed ceremony venue has not yet been cracked. Judging from the light and shadow blocking the passage, Weilin may still need a short period of time.

But the enemy is already close at hand.

The two people standing behind Shuge also saw countless eyeballs growing out of the creeping darkness. This was a scene that ordinary people like Schubert and Sally had never imagined.

Even the most terrifying and unforgettable nightmare they have experienced in the past is enough to be called warm in the face of such a scene.

"All... all... gods!"

Poor old Schubert's eyes were dull, and sporadic words came out of his mouth. He wanted to move his eyes away, but he was attracted by those fast-changing and distorted ugly scenes. He was afraid that once he looked away, what would happen to him? The darkness that Tuan cannot understand with common sense will immediately evolve into a more terrifying existence.

As for Sally…

This girl, who had always been very simple-minded, was completely froze in place. The things that appeared in front of her not only brought fear, but also made her feel nauseated and nauseated. The pungent and sour smell in the air made her even more... I couldn't help but retched.

Those green eyeballs continue to appear and burst in the darkness, just like green bubbles floating from the swamp. Each of these eyeballs seems to come from different biological individuals. They seem to have their own emotions and Thoughts, and when they are squeezed and burst by their "companions", they will even show emotions of pain and despair.

"what happened?"

Wei Lin, who had been focusing on destroying the ritual site, also felt something terrible. She felt that her magic power was becoming disordered, as if someone had cast magic that disrupted her spirit and thinking. However, Xiuge's voice came out. Come over.

"Don't look back!"

Shuge warned with his trembling voice: "Don't look back, Miss Weilin... please speed up."

After saying that, he took a step forward and threw out two low-quality magic crystals for lighting. Then a brighter light immediately covered the dark passage, and the indescribable dark existence became clearer. .

Now, Shuge knew how his running rat was "sent" back.

Under the illumination of the magic light, he saw a ball of black pus growing with countless limbs and organs. It was rolling forward along the underground waterway. This appearance reminded Shuge of his previous experience in 37 The changeling fluid blob seen in the house.

But compared to the monster in front of me, the group of changeling bugs that were quietly "digesting" their prey at that time were already well-behaved.

Shuge didn't have time to think about the connection between this thing and the changeling bugs. Seeing it rushing towards him and others, Charron's Touch immediately exploded forward, and the black mucus covered two magic crystals for lighting. At that moment, the black tentacles with dark green light and shadow made first contact with the strange creature with the same unknown shape.

This is the first time Xiuge has felt such a strong impact from Charron's Touch!

It was as if he was trying to stop an entire wall from collapsing with his palms.

Fortunately, the highly toxic corrosive power from the dark green crystal showed its advantage at this moment. The moment Charron's Touch collided with the black slime, large groups of poisonous mist exploded immediately, The black mucus with life and perception immediately began to shrink and necrotic the moment it touched the mist. In just a moment, a large number of indistinguishable fragments fell from the huge liquid mass. After they separated from their own bodies, they seemed It lost all vitality, and as soon as it fell to the ground, it completely merged with the endless flow of cold sewage.

Xiuge took a step back from the huge impact, and the Charron's Touch extending from his palm was churning endlessly in the darkness ahead. Those weird mucus tried to swallow up and assimilate these magic tentacles that dared to attack and block him. , however, the hard keratin covering the ends of Charron's Touch has become a natural barrier. Under their protection, these tentacles seem to have turned into sharp swords, constantly killing those mucus that dare to get close to them. Cut into pieces of different sizes, and once separated from the main body, the scattered slime will quickly lose its vitality in the diffuse mist.

"Strange... this monster doesn't seem to be as powerful as I expected."

Xiuge continued to cast the spell while gritting his teeth and moving forward. In front of such an existence, he had no room to retreat or maneuver. He knew that if he chose to retreat at this time, the black pus would immediately fill it up again. , then it will be even more difficult to fight for breathing space.

While maintaining Charron's touch, Shuge raised the crystal gun and continuously pulled the trigger towards the mass of mucus. When the powerful crystal bullet hit the wriggling darkness, it triggered a small-scale magic explosion. , the scattered magic crystal fragments successfully tore out gaps and gaps of varying sizes in the mucus, but these defects were quickly filled up.

In desperation, Xiuge had no choice but to continue to maintain his magic.

However, just when Xiuge thought that this fierce stalemate would continue forever, the shapeless monster suddenly changed its behavior. After another series of sharp "whistle sounds", this group of monsters suddenly changed their behavior. The jet-black stick immediately shrank back. It was extremely fast and got rid of the entanglement of Charron's Touch almost instantly, but it did not leave. Through the uncertain light, Xiuge still You can see the shadows slowly crawling in the sewer in the distance.

Although he didn't know what this guy was planning to do, Xiuge immediately stopped casting spells. He took out a magic crystal from his pocket and began to try his best to fill the vacancy in his own magic power.

"Hold on a little longer!"

Wei Lin's voice came over, and her voice was slightly breathless. It was obvious that in order to open the passage as soon as possible, the female mage had tried her best, but Xiuge did not have time to respond to her, and instead pressed her tightly. Stare ahead.

The brief contact just now made Xiuge realize that no matter what this mass of pus is, it must be the most ferocious and greedy predator. The transformed organs and limbs are the best proof.

"It does look like a changeling bug... except that it seems to absorb too many and too many things, from humans to beasts to bugs... Damn it, I don't want to join you!"

Xiuge took a deep breath. He was surprised to find that after witnessing the true appearance of the source of the crisis, he became calm again.

“The biggest fear comes from the unknown, and it’s true.”

He comforted himself a little in his heart, and then said: "Don't be too afraid. Although that thing looks scary, it can also be hurt by weapons and magic! Wake up!"

Perhaps the scene of Xiuge successfully repelling the enemy with magic just now gave old Schubert and Sally confidence, or maybe the desire to survive revived at this moment, and they finally regained their sanity, so Schubert gritted his teeth. Picking up the simple flamethrower, Sally bit her lip while taking out a bottle of alchemy potion.

Xiuge breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling the magic power pouring into his body from the magic crystal. His thoughts began to become clearer. He put away the crystal gun and pinched the remaining one with his hand. That alchemical bomb.

Although Shuge did not think that the dense hair could successfully block the all-pervasive mucus, he believed that the magic power contained in those hairs might still be able to cause considerable damage to this unknown magical creature!

While Xiuge and others were adjusting their state, the dark mucus was also undergoing new changes.

In the darkness, a large number of green eyeballs reappeared and arranged, this time they became more orderly.

Sally tremblingly raised the magic lantern, and everyone saw an even stranger sight than the surging mucus.

They saw one independent figure after another.

There are humans of different heights, shortness, fatness and thickness, there are beasts of different sizes and varieties, and there are many shadows that are mixed together, making it difficult to distinguish them in detail.

And at the front of the "team", Xiuge saw a familiar shadow.

It was an old figure with a short stature and a stooped body.

"Old Sergei?"

Shuge recognized the other party.

These shadows made of black mucus began to move in the direction of Shuge and others. They opened their mouths, but this time what they issued was not the harsh scream, but a series of complex and weird tones.

Xiuge's eyes widened. He found that he actually understood this voice. It was not a meaningless shout, but a language... Just like the black words in the dream shelter, these voices were entering his mind. At that moment, it was strangely transformed into a meaning that I could understand and recognize.

Those are ancient sacrificial verses one after another.

"Dedicate your remains to us!"

"Sacrifice the blood of our descendants!"

"Dedicated to the cry of fools!"

Miscellaneous messages filled Xiuge's brain almost instantly, and these weird sacrificial texts seemed to contain some kind of special power. In their reverberation, Xiuge felt that his thinking began to become disordered. The calm state began to slide uncontrollably towards restlessness again.

"Shut up!"

Amid Shuge's angry rebuke, Charron's Touch swept forward again. "Old Sergei" who was walking at the front of the team was hit by the sharp tentacles on the spot, and the sticky black body was instantly destroyed. It was torn into pieces, and the head that barely kept the appearance of the giant-eared goblin fell on the wall, but it still kept repeating those ominous sentences.

For Sally and Schubert, such a scene was close to the limit of their endurance.

So, in the midst of extreme depression and panic, they made their own choices.

The young girl followed Xiuge's previous instructions and pulled out the metal plate in the medicine bottle that was used to separate different liquids. Then she shook the medicine bottle twice randomly, and then pointed it towards Xiuge's body. Throw away those shadows in front of you.

The clerks in the alchemy shop were very honest. They did not sell any inferior products to Shuge. The mixed potion exploded the moment it hit the ground. The explosion and fire created a large area among the dense black shadows. vacancy.

On the other side, old Schubert let out a desperate and crazy cry. The thin and stingy tavern owner came to Shuge's side tremblingly. He directly squeezed the rough trigger on the simple flamethrower and filled the metal can. The oil spurted out immediately, and the moment they left the spray gun, they were ignited by the magic crystal embedded in the spray gun, and a slender tongue of flame immediately rushed into the dense crowd of figures.

In the desire to survive and the human instinct to fight against the feared things, those menacing dark figures were successfully blocked for a while.

However, in fact, the simple flamethrower in Old Schubert's hand was originally a weapon used to clean up and deter magical creatures in the sewers. The power of the flames it spit was far from those destructive magics, and the ones in Sally's hand were Alchemy potions can also only cause certain obstacles. Although each explosion can stop the advancing figures, there is no way to destroy those sticky substances.

The terrifying black shadow continued to advance forward. After the black slime dispersed into a large number of independent individuals, Shuge found that even the corrosive mist he spread could not stop their progress. Obviously, that was different from The strange life that closely resembles the changeling bug possesses amazing intelligence. It is not a beast that hunts only by instinct.

The disturbing sounds were still coming one after another. The figures of the giant-eared goblins that originally belonged to the Golden Boots caravan had been completely destroyed by the efforts of Xiuge and others, but then, more strange figures came towards them. They come.

Among them are soldiers, police officers, civilians... and even dead spellcasters.

Those figures that were once devoured in the central square are now walking in the underground waterways where the sun never shines. Their faces are constantly festering, peeling off, and reorganizing, and with every step they take, those gloomy sacrificial inscriptions are also coming out of their mouths. Chant it out.

It sounds like these guys are sending a sincere "invitation" to their stubborn prey.
