At this moment, strange noises came from the pool, and Delia and Lomon, who were approaching the pool, were bounced back again and again.
Chen Rui asked: "What's wrong? Delia."
Delia's voice seemed urgent: "The secret treasure is right next to the silver box in the pool. There seems to be an enchantment here, so you can't pass through it!"
Silver casket! Chen Rui's heart moved, and he hurriedly walked towards the pool.
"Wait!" The black mist on Guladam's body stopped Chen Rui: "You can take anything here, but not the silver box!"
In the silver box is the mysterious treasure obtained by Pagliu from killing his enemy, the blue dragon Ranieri. For this reason, he also betrayed his temporary ally, the fairy dragon Lola.
The silver box is an important bargaining chip for finding Lola in the future to exchange and decipher the ancient runes. It is also one of the two treasures that must be obtained this time. But for some reason, Guladam is so nervous about the silver box. Could it be that he discovered some secrets inside?
"We have an agreement in advance! I have stated that there are three things I must want, and you didn't mention the silver box!" Chen Rui stepped forward: "Have you forgotten the poisonous oath you made with your name? Or , our agreement was invalidated when you first breached your credit?"
Guladam tried his best to suppress his anger, his eyes glowing red, and he stepped aside. With a wave of his hand, Delia immediately felt that the blocking power disappeared, and hurried into the pool, picking up a strange thing. This is a circular object, like a convex mirror as a whole, shining, with a strange symbol in the center, like a deep eye.
Delia was extremely excited, her body trembled slightly, and she hugged the "convex mirror" tightly, unable to speak for a while, but it was Lomon who supported her shoulders, comforting her, and walked out of the pool .
When Chen Rui approached the pool, he saw that there were a few things sinking to the bottom of the pool together with Delia's family secret treasure, and his eyes fell on one of them, which was the flat silver box. Go to the pool.
By the way, this pool...is actually a fountain of vitality, which is one of the two items that can cure Skye's curse, so it seems that you need to use more brains.
Chen Rui was about to go down when Guladam's voice came from behind: "Glorfin! Don't regret it!"
"In Groven's dictionary, there is no word for regret!" Chen Rui replied very darkly, let alone a "dictionary" for Groven, everything is gone, so there is no regret at all.
Chen Rui walked into the fountain of vitality step by step, bent his body, and touched the silver box. At first he thought the box was made of metal, but when he held it in his hand, he realized that the material looked like gold but not wood, with a dark silvery brilliance flowing , there are countless incomprehensible mysterious patterns faintly appearing, and the whole box is full of mysterious atmosphere.
I remember that Pagliu said that there should be a small box in this box. Although there is a temporary peace agreement with the Lich, the next time we meet, we will definitely be enemies. Change it back
Regardless, it's worth checking out. This box is just a simple lock, and there is no special seal.
The Lich had been observing his expression, and suddenly shouted: "Don't open the box!"
Chen Rui heard the panic in the Lich's voice, and with a move in his heart, he immediately opened the lock, and only then did he open a hole, and an indescribable breath of power radiated out.
In an instant, Chen Rui only felt that his vitality was rapidly passing away, and at the same time, an "illusion" was born, as if he was in the vast and boundless universe, and everything around him was dying and dissipating.
Life, planets, and galaxies, no matter how long they are for several years or trillions of years, no matter how immortal they are, they cannot escape the end of destruction. Just like a star born from a nebula in a super system, it will also be destroyed and return to a new cloud after passing through the heyday of the main sequence.
However, this kind of destruction is not simply death, just like the explosion of a supernova, since it is destruction, it is also the beginning of new life. The cycle of life and death is an eternal principle of the universe.
Feeling the vague mystery, and thinking of the stars and galaxies in the super system, Chen Rui seemed to have grasped something, but he didn't seem to grasp it. Under this influence, the rotation and revolution of the stars and galaxies in the super system seem to become more naturally rounded, and the brilliance of the planets becomes more complex and gentle.
As if trillions of years passed in the universe, these perceptions were only fleeting, and Chen Rui's consciousness returned to Pagliu's treasure hall.
The entire hall began to tremble, as if it was about to collapse. Countless dust fell from the top, and the water in the fountain of vitality was also tumbling. Lomon and Delia fell to the ground together, with very uncomfortable expressions on their faces. Guladam had already hid somewhere, and the black energy had subsided.
"Master! My life feels like it's passing away! It's terrible!" Diu Diu jumped out of Lomon's backpack, and a terrified voice sounded, but he didn't look as uncomfortable as Delia and Lomon.
"It's not just life force..." Lomon shouted, "My strength is completely suppressed... Close the box!"
Chen Rui also felt that the passing of life was not an illusion, but the power had not been lost. He had already seen the contents of the box. As Pagliu said, there was a smaller box inside, but it was just a small box. A breath of air leaking out of the box has already caused such strong fluctuations.
No matter from Pagliu's description or the strange power, it should be this silver box!
Chen Rui recalled the Lich's reaction just now, and realized that he had been tricked, his mind turned for a while, pretending to have lost his strength, and fell into the fountain of vitality, the box in his hand was also closed, and fell into the water.
After the box entered the fountain of vitality, the tremor gradually stopped. Looking at the three of Chen Rui who fell down from strength, Guladam's black mist let out an uncontrollable laugh.
"Stupid guy, you actually opened the silver box!" Lich laughed wildly for a while, and nodded when he saw Diudiu who was trembling in fright: "It really is! In addition to devouring the statement, this silver box is also important to the royal family." It has a powerful suppression effect, but it has no special effect on life outside the royal family. No wonder I am not afraid of this suppression after I transform into a dead spirit. Tell you, within two hours, your strength and action ability will be greatly improved If it is weakened, it can only be slaughtered by me!"
Chen Rui looked struggling, and shouted angrily: "So you deliberately tricked me, have you forgotten your oath?"
"A corpse witch can even give up his life and body, so why would he care about his first or last name!" The corpse witch said with a sinister smile: "As compensation for breaking the oath, before I die, I will tell you something."
More than 2,000 years ago, Guladam discovered the crypt with the spring of vitality, killed the original owner, and used this place as his secret cultivation place. However, not long after, a more ferocious master came. This was an extremely powerful dragon. In front of him, Guladam, who had always relied on his strength, was easily killed without even a chance to fight back. Fortunately, Guladam is proficient in dark magic and undead magic. At a critical moment, he used a self-created secret technique of soul transfer, secretly hiding the soul in the fountain of vitality, and can be resurrected at that time. This kind of secret technique will sacrifice a certain lifespan as the price, and there is a considerable time limit. If it lasts for a long time, even if the fountain of vitality has a special effect, the soul will disappear.
Fortunately, the terrifying dragon seemed to be in a hurry, and he didn't expect to completely destroy his body. He just kicked it into the corner, left behind a staggering treasure, and left in a hurry (the focus is placed on the upper floors and the jungle).
Only then did Guladam, who was in feigned death, dare to come out, relying on the secret method to get back to life by being possessed by luck, seeing the huge treasure like a mountain, the excitement in his heart couldn't be more exciting. However, this place has been sealed by the special power of the dragon, and the exit cannot be found for a while.
Guladam was helpless, and became depressed again. The spring of vitality could replenish energy and magic power, but it could not be eaten as food. Even if he was proficient in magic, he couldn't sustain it. Guladam set his sights on a silver box that the dragon clan placed in the fountain of vitality. Judging from the caution of the dragon clan just now, this should be a very important treasure, and maybe they can find a way out of it.
Just when Guladam opened the silver box, the box emitted a terrifying strange force, which not only suppressed him and was unable to move, but also almost sucked his vitality.
Guladam's original lifespan was already running out, and because of the secret technique, he almost died on the spot. He was so frightened that he didn't recover until the silver box was closed for a long time.
In desperation, Guladam had no choice but to take a risk and chose the path of the Lich. After a great danger, he finally succeeded in transforming his body into an immortal monster. After becoming a Lich, Guladam no longer had any worries about food and longevity, and began to think about how to leave this place.
For two thousand years, he has practiced and studied continuously, tried various methods, and even tested the silver box at great risk. The silver box can not only swallow life, but also sometimes exudes terrifying destructive power. Guladam's body transformed into a necromancer was destroyed by that terrible power, leaving only a pure spiritual body, and the small box inside is even more powerful. Horribly, Guladam still has no way of knowing what's inside.
Finally, by chance, Guladam successfully projected part of his mental power onto the ground in the form of a spatial mirror image. The projection and the body are in a complementary relationship, and cannot be too far away from the body. It's a pity that the projection can't open the exit from the outside anyway, so I had to come up with another idea, that is projection conversion.
This projection only needs to absorb enough power of the living soul to complete the transformation into the main body. At that time, the body of the underground treasure will become a projection, which can be discarded.
After using countless corpses to die for death, Guladam also gradually figured out some rules of the traps set by the dragon clan. After the projection accumulated enough power, it set up the magic field to lure the treasure hunters to take the bait. The abnormality of the plants along the way that Chen Rui saw when he came was due to the influence of the domain. The golden crystal that Corpse Puppet Hart used to attract Chen Rui and the others came from previous treasure hunters.
The power of Pagliu's dragon language inscription is no small matter. Every three years, the pseudo-fields accumulated by Guladam mixed with the power of the silver box can weaken the effectiveness of the inscription to a certain extent.
In this way, Guladam kept suppressing the inscriptions and using corpse puppets to lure treasure hunters, and then absorbed the soul power of the dead to expand the projection. Due to the limited control distance of corpse puppets and the remoteness of Youye Wetland, until now , I haven't saved enough souls for projection transformation. As for the statement in the hall that only six souls are needed, it is clearly a lie, the purpose is to use this method to make everyone kill each other, and finally reap the benefits of the fisherman easily.
Chen Rui used the artifact to devour the power of the domain that Guladam had accumulated in three years, and instead of falling into internal strife, he destroyed the projection instead, making Guladam's two thousand years of hard work come to naught. .
However, the development of things is always unexpected. This guy actually broke the seal of the dragon clan and opened the door to the treasure! It also opened up the way of life that Guladam had planned so hard to get! Not only can you escape from this ghost place that has been imprisoned for two thousand years, but you can also take away those amazing treasures!
Unexpectedly, that damned enemy "Groven" actually possessed the power of the domain, and was almost devoured by the power of the essence of the soul. On the surface, Guladam was forced to make a temporary compromise, but in his heart, he was calculating how to kill all these people in order to monopolize the treasure. . Not only the wealth of treasures, but also that silver casket. The destructive aura of the silver box is mysterious and terrifying, and it can restrain the royal family. As long as one can understand the mystery, all the royal families in the demon world will be prostrate at his feet in the future.
In this way, under his guidance of playing hard to get, "Grofin" walked into the trap step by step, opened the silver box, and the key to victory was in the hands of Guladam again!
After listening to Guladam's words, Chen Rui gritted his teeth and said, "Don't get complacent too early! I have the power of the domain, and your method of devouring the spiritual body can't hurt me!"
Guladam laughed wildly: "Don't forget, the fountain of vitality is under your feet. With the power of the spring water, my magic power and spiritual power can be recovered quickly. Two hours is enough for me to recover my magic power. As long as I can use magic .It is not easy to kill you little fellows!"
Mental power is equivalent to bullets, and magic power is equivalent to guns. Without guns, bullets can only be used to hit people. These three people and one beast died.
Guladam's triumphant laughter stopped suddenly, because the spring water in the fountain of vitality began to decrease rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Fountain of Vitality..." Guladam exclaimed. For two thousand years, the Fountain of Vitality has never dried up. His eyes fell on the faint mist, which came from Chen Rui's hand. At this moment of distraction, the fountain of vitality had disappeared without a trace, and the recovery of magic power suddenly slowed down.
Immediately afterwards, under Guladam's unbelievable eyes, Chen Rui, who had calmed down, stood up energetically, without the appearance of being unable to move before. Delia and Lomon were also stunned, only lost Diu cheered and jumped onto Chen Rui's shoulder.
"This story tells us that the person riding the white horse may not necessarily be a prince, but may be a Tang monk." Chen Rui smiled slightly: "Or, the person wearing the mask may not necessarily be the royal family of Beelzebub. Your trick has failed, Guladam .”
