This isn't a souls-like game at all.

"This Wushanza... seems to have a lively personality."

Ye Yiyi pouted awkwardly, then turned her head and looked up.

"Come down first Adam, we should be there."

“To the place…?”

Adam struggled to move his gaze away from the huge Pisang Sea, and looked down at Ye Yiyi, his brows furrowed, his eyes full of shock and confusion.

"Sir, are you sure we've arrived?"

"That should be right." Ye Yiyi scratched his head, "This door should be opened by the thing in your hand."

"This……"

Adam looked at the two objects in his hands whose light was gradually dimming, and swallowed subconsciously.

Did my grandfather actually want me to come to a place like this?

An ancient ruin with ancient guardians?

Looking at Wushanzuo, whose emotions seemed to be getting more and more excited, Adam felt extremely complicated.

His grandfather asked him to deliver the letter, which obviously meant he had dealt with these beings before.

But why didn’t my grandfather ever mention this?

"Is this where the witch is?"

Ignoring Adam who was still hesitating, Norsley turned into a wisp of black smoke and drilled into the crack, appearing next to Ye Yiyi.

The female psychic looked around and finally looked up at Pisanza, whose bodybuilding movements had suddenly stopped and he looked down at her with a strong sense of oppression.

"Oh, there's another cursed person who I don't know."

There was a dazzling light in Wushanzuo's eyes as he stared at Norsley from head to toe.

"He is my companion." Seeing that something was not right, Ye Yiyi hurriedly explained.

"Don't worry, Nameseeker."

Wushanzuo stretched out his big hand and gestured to Ye Yiyi.

"I have no ill intentions... but the premise is that this cursed person is not an enemy, so necessary testing is indispensable."

"Test?"

"Indeed, this place is home to a large number of cursed beings and valuable facilities. For safety, preventing the intrusion of cursed beings and detecting spies and enemies is also one of my responsibilities!"

Ye Yi subconsciously exchanged a glance with Norsley, feeling relieved for the moment, and stopped trying to stop her.

Then the white light in Wushanzuo's striped eyes became more and more dazzling.

The light passed through Norsley's body, and also swept across Ye Yiyi who was standing beside her.

Seeing that Wushanzuo didn't react, Ye Yiyi finally felt relieved.

Then he saw the light fall on Adam who came in from the crack, and the knights behind him.

When he glanced at one of them, the white light in Wushanzuo's eyes suddenly turned into a striking blood red!

"Huh? Not good!" Ye Yiyi's eyes focused, and he quickly raised his right hand. The Moonlight Gun popped out from his palm and was about to cast a spell.

But the black-armored knight reacted extremely quickly. When he saw the color of the light change, he took a step forward like lightning and curled up to hide behind the other knights.

Seeing this, Ye Yiyi had no choice but to put down his light gun, waving the light wings behind him, and rushed forward like a stream of light, while shouting:

"Adam, be careful!"

And Adam hadn't even reacted yet.

In his opinion, the knights following him were all loyal companions, so how could there be spies among them?

It was because of this deep belief that he hesitated for a moment and subconsciously looked back in the blood-red light.

At this moment, the knight had already passed through the crowd and came in front of Adam.

As Adam's pupils gradually dilated, the knight raised the sword in his hand. A gray-white cloud surged onto the sword, and then he stabbed hard at the throat of Adam, who was standing there in a daze.

"clang!!"

A sharp metallic buzzing sound startled Adam in front of him.

Adam shuddered, his stiff face, filled with a mixture of emotions, illuminated by the dazzling sparks.

The long sword that was thrust towards his throat was blocked by a silver-white curved blade.

"court death!"

A cold light flashed in Ye Yiyi's pupils, and he raised his long knife and swung the straight sword away.

The black-armored knight remained silent, but his figure suddenly turned into a gray mist and dissipated, causing the long swords of the other black-armored knights who were slashing from behind to miss.

"Wow! A mouse has sneaked in!"

A dull and disdainful laugh emanated from Wushanzuo's mouth, and the huge horns standing on the giant helmet suddenly flashed with a startling light.

"Bang! Bang!"

Two semicircular glass covers suddenly appeared at both ends of the cracked door, and then closed together, turning into a glass cylinder as tall as a person.

Gray mist emerged from the completely sealed cover. It rushed around, as if trying to get out of the cover, but it was like a turtle in a jar, with its retreat completely blocked.

"What kind of trick is this?"

Seeing the spy caught, Ye Yiyi lowered his long sword and looked at the glass dome curiously.

"Could it be a clever technique?"

"You are only half right." Wu Shanzuo stood there with his heavy arms folded, speaking words filled with pride and complacency.

"That's a composite spell that combines Heavenly Craftsmanship, Skillful Techniques, and Cosmic Magic. It's extremely difficult and demanding to cast!

"I think only Lord Wushanza, the Kingchoir Knight, could perform this move so quickly!

"Once this technique traps someone, there's no other way to escape except to commit suicide on the spot. They will become my defeated enemy! A prisoner within the spell!"

"So awesome?!"

Ye Yiyi was a little surprised. Different spells could actually be combined and released to become compound spells?

And it is a combination of three techniques?

This was the first time he knew how to use it!

"I have a question."

Norsley watched the black-armored knight gradually reveal his figure in the glass cover and raised her hand high.

"Speak," Wu Shanzuo said proudly, folding his arms. "Feel free to ask Master Wu Shanzuo any questions you want! I will show my generosity and answer your questions!"

"You just said there's no other solution besides suicide, so what if...ah!"

Norsley pointed her finger expressionlessly.

“…He seemed to be about to commit suicide.”

"what?"

Wushanzuo's voice paused, and he quickly looked up, and saw the black-armored knight taking off his breastplate, pulling out a dagger from his arms, and stabbing it into his chest without hesitation!

“Yaru!!”

Adam opened his bloodshot eyes wide and watched with his own eyes as the black-armored knight's body gradually lost strength and slowly slid down the glass cover to the ground, letting out a roar filled with shock and sadness.

"Yalu! Why! Why are you a spy!

"Tell me! Yalu! Tell me!"

"..."

The black-armored knight lowered his head, seemingly looking through the slit in his helmet.

At this moment, a heart-shaped beam of magical blue light flew across the air, but was bounced off by the glass dome.

"Quick! Wushanza, open that thing! My magic was deflected!"

Ye Yiyi raised the Moonlight Spear and shouted at Wu Shanzuo who was frozen in place:

"Information! Information about the Curse Bender!! He can't die yet! I have life-extending magic and hymns that can save his life!"

"Your Excellency! Your Excellency! And Lord Wushanza! Please! Please save him!"

Hearing this, Adam seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and begged desperately to Wushanzuo.

"what……"

Wu Shan Zuo let out an awkward groan, his originally smug demeanor suddenly turning into one of loss and frustration.

"But I can't open it... It's a technique that mimics a black box. Once formed, the inside and outside are completely isolated. Therefore, there's no escape or opening. Only after a certain amount of time, it will disappear on its own...

"This is also why it is said that there is no other way to escape except suicide..."

"This……"

Ye Yiyi stood there in a daze for a moment, finally reacting and helplessly putting down the Moonlight Gun.

To imitate the black box technique, I think no one can open the glass cover unless they are the King of Craftsmen or the King himself.

"Lord Hawkwood? Lord Wushanzuo!?" Seeing this, Adam pleaded anxiously.

"Please, both of you, save Yalu!"

"It's too late to save..."

Ye Yiyi shook his head and sighed helplessly.

"That cover isn't just a simple cover, it's a completely isolated black box. Even Xiaoyu and Yukuza's spatial abilities probably can't penetrate it..."

Having said that, Ye Yiyi looked up at the small fish with two tentacles sticking out from the gap, then turned his head to look at Wushanzuo and saw it shaking its head.

"Bai Shou You Yu and You Kong Zuo have similar abilities. Both can enter alien space..."

Wu Shanza whispered, "But the inside and outside of the black box are isolated spaces... Young human, while he is still dying, say goodbye."

“Yaru!!”

Adam let out a heart-wrenching cry, calling out the name of the black-armored knight in a hoarse voice.

But Yalu still did not answer. He took off his black helmet, revealing a young but thin face with purple spots flashing between his eyebrows.

"Hypnosis..."

Ye Yiyi whispered to himself, "He was hypnotized by the Curse Master and his cognition was rewritten."

"That's what I'm afraid of."

Wu Shanzuo shook his head slightly, "Those who control the curse are all resurrected from the immortal death. The remnants of magic on their bodies are too obvious, I can tell at a glance!

"But the hearts and souls of people in this era are defenseless, so chaos magic is extremely effective, easily making them lose their true selves and turn them into puppets...

"So the light you used to sweep over them before..." Ye Yiyi looked up thoughtfully.

"A technique to detect the existence of chaos magic." Wu Shanzuo whispered.

At this moment, the purple light flickering between Yalu's eyebrows gradually dimmed and finally disappeared completely.

As the light spot disappeared, the knight regained his ability to move, but it was too late.

He sat slumped in the glass case with a pale face, and the blood from the wound on his chest soaked his clothes.

"Yalu..." Adam knelt down sadly, looking up with red eyes at his companion who had accompanied him in patrolling the kingdom.

Yalu shook his head and said nothing.

Just died like that.

Soul Echo +460

"Hey……"

His eyes swept across the light curtain, Ye Yiyi sighed, put the long knife back into his arm, walked forward and patted Adam's shoulder gently.

“That’s what war is.”

Wu Shanzuo looked at Adam calmly, then lowered his head to look at Ye Yiyi who was walking to his feet.

"...He's very young and has never experienced anything like this before. He still needs to adapt."
