People in hell, boss four seasons

……

The incomplete city wall and huge defects separated the two places. This is the other side of the high wall, the once peaceful village, only barking wild dogs and dead burying people remained.

"Wow~Wow!"

The wild dog grinned at Wen Yao, showing off its might, and pushed its body towards Wen Yao with its powerful hind legs.

This is not a heroic fight alone. The wild dogs from the heights fell from behind, and the wreckage of the carriage was sideways, and there were also wild dogs watching.

The arc of the knife light was accompanied by a whine, and the sound of the pale green magic ball breaking bones was crisp.

"Even animals cannot escape the influence of the abyss. Their desire to attack is obviously much stronger."

It was supposed to be a guard dog for a certain family in the village, but now it was full of desire to attack.

"Can Master Siji still feel the existence of people?"

The prosperous town was reduced to scorched earth and ruins, and the gate was raised high, but the watchman was nowhere to be found.

"Chaos and the abyss interfered with my observations, but there is indeed a breath of life in this area."

The gate was raised high by magic, and in the distance was a fire that had been extinguished for some time, only to be amazed by the familiar spiral sword piercing the ground.

"Ash has stayed here, maybe there is more information here that we need to investigate."

Looking around, there is only one road leading to the dark house, the right side is a terrifying cliff, the fog will cover the high place, and the echo of the falling stones will not be heard for a long time.

"I hope I won't meet difficult guys again. I don't want to meet those creatures of the abyss again."

Lothric's memory is not friendly to the four seasons, at least the gargoyle that fell from the sky really spoiled the mood.

The gloomy atmosphere can hardly bring people a good mood, and the breath of the abyss is even more disgusting. Walking in a village full of weirdness and malice, the dry trees around seem to have unfriendly expressions.

"The residents of this village don't seem to be affected too much by the abyss."

Surrounding the bonfire in the distance, the bloated priestess chanted spells, and many villagers wearing pointed hats and holding steel forks stood around. The flames devoured the remnants of the corpses, and even the mournful cries of the souls could be heard.

This is a ceremony to dispose of the undead. The bones of the undead are placed under the "cursed" tree and burned. This can prevent their resurrection, and the soul will be imprisoned by the tree forever until it is destroyed.

"Bloodlust!"

The whereabouts of Wen Yao and Si Ji did not hide. The priests who saw them launched the attack first. Since the undead plague spread, most people who stepped into this village have been regarded as hotbeds of "plague" and buried forever. the land.

On the contrary, a foreign warrior was let go a few months ago, and even the flame demon in a corner of the village disappeared. However, the undead plague did not spread because of this, which was nothing more than a harmless thing to these residents.

The residents of the undead settlement hated the existence of the undead, and the ancient tree that gathered resentment was located in a corner of the village. The shrine originally used for worship was eventually occupied by the ancient tree, enjoying the worship of the villagers.

"It seems that these villagers are not friendly to outsiders."

Bloodthirsty is a rather cruel spell. It will always swim in your blood, erode your muscles and skin, and continuously cause bleeding effects. Many powerful knights have completely lost their fighting ability because of this, and even left them with lifelong illnesses. Therefore, there are not a few knights who died.

Especially in dark places without open flames and sunlight, such spells are more effective.

"Interesting spell, but still got it wrong."

Chapter 245 God Tree

It is inconvenient to walk with a bloated body, and the body of the priest is slightly obese. In addition to the cumbersome clothing of the priest, it is also inconvenient to release the spell.

Mosquitoes and flies in mid-air gathered together and spread along the spiral trajectory towards Wen Yao and the four seasons. Once the mosquitoes and flies exuding black air touch the skin, festering will quickly cover the body surface. The parasitic insects suck the fresh blood of the host endlessly until they are dispersed by the open flame, or the host loses blood and dies.

However, it is just a fairly common spell, and it is not enough to cause too much trouble for the two of them. The holy light of Naaru can even dispel the spells on the two Lothric princes, let alone the existence of the fire. For these Gu insect-like things, it is undoubtedly a disaster.

Tiny creatures, relatively weak in soul power, were burnt to ashes by the fire of the underworld, leaving only sporadic light spots in midair. Spells and magic spells are different in terms of the construction of the spells, but the use of energy in the air is similar.

"The power infected by the abyss is born with an unavoidable evil atmosphere, which is more terrifying than ordinary spells."

Wen Yao crushed the remaining mosquitoes and flies into nothingness ashes. These creatures have been reduced to puppets of the abyss. Naturally, Wen Yao did not have the idea of ​​showing kindness. It is never too early to clean up harmful things.

The priest's spell disturbed the surrounding villagers. Among the residents wearing pointed gray hats and overalls, there were short and agile "dwarfs". Horrible bones.

"Appropriate fertilizer. Be grateful! You will become the soil of the god tree!"

There is indescribable reverence in the tone, and more fanatical belief. The town shrouded in the curse of immortality has already fallen into the abyss. The bewildered residents let out inaudible roars, holding rusty machetes or steel forks in their hands. Their dirty eyes were blinded by nightmares and fears, and they carried out the order of extermination.

"Their souls have been completely eroded by the abyss, Yao, let them be free."

The compassionate Yan Mo had no intention of torturing these poor people. The decayed body was dispelled by the divine radiance, and it instantly turned into smoke and dissipated in the air.

The symptoms of these residents have been symbiotic with the souls. In Yan Mo's vision, those souls are all wrapped in a black abyss, leaving only a lonely empty shell inside the complete body.

"Foreigners, if you offend the majesty of the sacred tree, you will be punished!"

Belonging to the unknown "sacred tree", you can probably guess that it is a creature like the dryad, who has obtained more powerful power from the abyss, or is accompanied by the curse of immortality and endless resentment. Wen Yao can even guess that herpes protruded from the bark of Canggu, the flowing resin turned into foul-smelling pus, and the earth veins screamed under him.

The priest seems to know only this spell, but the bloodthirsty mosquitoes and flies are really not a threat to the four seasons. The receding body touches the bonfire under the dead tree, and the tongue of fire eats away at the decaying cloth and clothing. The bloated body is burned to ashes with painful wailing.

"Looks like a good harvest."

Wen Yao picked up a crystal clear fragment from the fire, in which the power of elements was brewing, Wen Yao remembered the element bottle that Ashes pinned to his waist, the aura between the two was so similar.

"The power in the crystal is very warm, and I can feel the pure magic filling my body rapidly."

Four Seasons held the crystals he received from Wen Yao's hands on his chest, and he could feel the subtle warm current flowing along his fingertips to the body, which was pure magic and vitality.

"Ash relies on the bottle made of this kind of crystal to store the recovered energy. This really looks like a very strange crystal."

Different from other crystal colors, crystal clear crystals are mixed with warm yellow and dark blue. Even in harsh environments, the abilities full of evil and chaos still cannot corrode it. For warriors fighting against the abyss, this is undoubtedly the most suitable material.

There are traces of the abyss all over the village. There are strange monsters in the static iron cages, but they were destroyed on the spot before they attacked. These crystal clear bones are the corpses left by the undead who were once buried here.

Thick dust piled up in the low room, the walls around were slightly damaged, the wind leaking in from all around made a piercing "wailing", and occasionally you could meet "people" wandering here, and the soul had already been swallowed up by the abyss, leaving only an empty shell repeating the habits of the past.

"It's really tragic enough. I can hardly feel the breath of life in the whole town."

The abyss erupted from Lothric and swept across the entire continent in an instant. The undead settlement closest to Lothric naturally became one of the places most affected by the abyss.

"There are still life fluctuations on the tower over there, Master Four Seasons, maybe we should seek some guidance from the life there, and by the way, find out what kind of weird monster that sacred tree is."

2Chapter 16 Giants

The tall tower stands alone on the east side of the village, and further east is the mountains and dense jungles.

The road under the high tower is not easy to walk. The road in the village has been in disrepair for a long time, and most of it has collapsed. There are traces of the abyss scattered everywhere. The strange fog covers the part below the high cliff. pavement.

The straddling white bones themselves are obstacles to walking. The unknown objects touched under the feet, apart from unfamiliar vines, may also be the living corpses lying on the side of the road "playing dead" and "woke up" when they sensed the vibration of the ground. It is not easy to go deep in such an environment.

"The folk customs in this village are really not ordinary."

From the ordinary villagers holding steel forks at the beginning to the villagers holding hacksaws and porcelain jars now, as Wen Yao and Siji continued to deepen, a corner of the village has been fully displayed in the eyes of the two.

Perhaps only the citizens of Yanan City are more qualified in terms of toughness.

The only option for crossing the dry river is to pass through the narrow bridge. The high-hanging wooden bridge swayed from side to side, and it was necessary to be distracted from the possibility of distant residents using huge throwing objects on this wooden bridge.

"I thought the situation in Lothric City was bad enough..."

The lift was rattling and rattling, and although it was a tall tower, it actually only stood tall among the generally low buildings in this village. If the same tower were placed in Losric, it probably wouldn't even be able to reach the floor of the large library.

"It seems that Losric may already be the best-preserved place in this world because of the existence of the priest."

This is the rough guess of the four seasons after seeing this village.

"Unorganized political system, even without the protection of well-trained priests and knights, it is almost impossible for life to survive here."

Of course, the tower is an exception, the closer it is to the top of the tower, the more obvious the fluctuation of life force will be.

"Those monsters seem to be very afraid of the existence on this tower."

The monsters chasing after them stopped chasing after seeing Wen Yao and Siji enter the tower, as if there was something on this tower that made them afraid.

The speed of the elevator finally slowed down. The space at the top of the tower was not empty, and it was even crowded because there were two more people. Facing the cold wind and walking up to the stairs that only one person can pass through, there was still boundless thick fog in front of us, but there was a giant sitting right in front of him. Yes, for ordinary humans, he was a giant in the true sense.

"Stranger, why did you come here?"

The voice was rough and thick, and the tall body made Wen Yao and Siji need to look up to this warrior.

A thick arrow was placed on his side. If he didn't notice the crossbow covered by his huge body, Wen Yao would even think that the giant used brute force to complete this process. After all, such a huge arrow can be used as a javelin for ordinary humans.

"What happened in this village?"

The purpose of their coming here is obvious, Wen Yao didn't mean to answer, but asked about the whole story of the village accident.

"I have heard about you in the prophecies that have been handed down to this day. Travelers from another world will be the key to rekindling the fire of the world. I am willing to answer your questions."

It seems that the arrival of Wen Yao and the four seasons has been expected, the giant did not show hostility, but always maintained a kind state.

"The footsteps of the abyss will not be blocked by the high wall. Since the ignorant humans began to worship the ancient tree affected by the curse, it is a matter of time before the village falls... I am here to guard the dark legacy on behalf of my friend's request, "

The giant has witnessed the whole story of the village, but for the giant who just needs to be protected, the sorrows and joys of human beings are not connected with it, so he will not do much to protect human beings.

"The kingdom of giants has disappeared a long time ago. Even the me in front of you has already infiltrated other races. That great warrior entrusted the mission of protection to my friend. He can no longer protect the dark relics, so I will take over his work... The demon that ignited the flames has been cleared away by the last undead who came here, and the cursed ancient tree is located in the sacrificial hall deep in the village. The king of this era is destined to have a life-and-death duel with his best friend, a Catalina knight...that's all I can tell you, strangers..."

The giant put a few pale branches in front of Wen Yao, and stopped talking. He looked into the distance, picked up the bow and crossbow and shot one arrow after another at the distant cemetery.

From the thin mist, the huge roar of the thick arrows hitting the ground can be vaguely heard, and the giant's attack method will only be more brutal than that of humans.

The giant had no intention of revealing more, but the known information was enough for Wen Yao and Four Seasons to continue exploring the village. The lighting technique dispersed the surrounding fog, and along the way they came, Wen Yao and Four Seasons walked towards the ancient stairs on the other side.

2Chapter 17 Loretta

The monster walked through the thick fog, the wild dogs barked wildly, and quickly disappeared in an invisible direction.

This is mostly something that only happens in horror stories.

The milky white mist passed between the fingers, but what gathered was just a touch of shade, only scattered droplets gathered in the palm of the hand, and soon merged into the humid air with the invisible wind.

"Countless sins have gathered in the village, and they have settled in this land, cursing the residents here."

Before the four seasons officially became Yan Mo, as a Jizo, she still walked in the area under her jurisdiction.

"At that time, Yingzhou's civilization had just started, and I had witnessed the same tragedy happen."

The cold voice was mixed with indistinct sighs, and there were too many things that could not be done. Even Siji Yingji, who became Yan Mo now, might not be able to give a more appropriate solution, let alone an ordinary Jizo at that time.

Most of the stone steps that go up are incomplete, and the uneven edges are very easy to scratch your feet. The distance between the steps is much higher than what you see in daily life. For the four seasons, who are not too tall, such roads are not only inconvenient, but even a bit tortured.

However, Siji rejected Wen Yao's kindness. After all, if he needs to be taken care of for such a reason... As one of the highest referees in hell, such behavior is a bit too squeamish.

There are still wandering corpses walking on the steps. They drag their footsteps, their shriveled skin rubbing against the ground, making a harsh sound. These corpses were originally the most common villagers in this village, but now they have become soulless walking corpses. Only this still-moving body is left to wander instinctively in this barren land.

At the end of the steps is a heavy gate. Touching the lines on it, you can feel the uneven surface engraved with beautiful reliefs. The height of the gate is still covered by white mist, and the specific decorations cannot be seen clearly, but according to the line of sight The magnificence of the relief can be vaguely recognized from the lines inside.

"It's a new building, at least much newer than those dilapidated houses."

Across the gate, the breath of the abyss is still strong.

"This is probably the... church built to enshrine the 'sacred tree' that the villagers called?"

Slightly pushing the door in front of him, he could faintly feel that there was a chain in it that bound him.

"Do you have to open it from the other side?"

Wen Yao looked a little distressed.

The only way to go to the other side of the village is to go back to the place where the fragment was first seen. If you guessed correctly, you can also find the door leading to the other side of the church through that eerie house.

It's just that it would be too much of a waste of time, and turning back the same way is the next best thing to do no matter what.

To be honest, just a simple lock can't stop Wen Yao. No matter how strong the material of the door is, it can't block the magic attack. There is some kind of ominous seal, so he dare not open this door. After all, in such a barren and ancient village, there are many suspicious things in itself for such a building to appear. "

"Don't worry, the other side of the door is not as scary as you think."

An ethereal female voice came from the mist, and a moment later, with a burst of thick fog, a nearly transparent soul came into the sight of the two of them.

"Is it possible to maintain a soul in a certain physical state?"

For the sudden appearance of strange souls, Four Seasons still maintains appropriate vigilance.

"Guian, two adults, I'm Loretta. If you noticed, the corpse hanging at the entrance of the village is me."

Mentioning her own body, the woman didn't feel any discomfort, as if dying there was not her in front of her eyes.

"I stayed here to wait for my lover, but in the end only the undead who visited here rashly took away my bones."

Now that she is dead, Loretta doesn't want to bring more regrets to her lover.

"My soul is already very thin, and it is an unexpected joy to be able to wait for the two adults before it completely dissipates. The reason for the development of the incident to this day begins with the sacred tree enshrined in the church courtyard. The curse of immortality has never left this place. A gloomy town, until the high wall is no longer able to restrict the flow of the abyss, the environment of the village deteriorates rapidly. The villagers who believe in the sacred tree sacrifice all outsiders as fertilizer to the sacred tree, hoping that the sacred tree will bring them eternal life and blessings."

Everything started from the very beginning of greed, but in the end this town was completely swallowed by the abyss.

"I prayed to the giant on the solitary tower, but he couldn't stop all this from happening. The warrior who passed here has not grown to the point where he can eradicate this darkness, but the arrival of the two adults made me see salvation. hope."
