In the dark passage, Xien was slowly moving forward unknownly, heading towards the deepest part of this space alone.
This time, no one showed him the way, and he couldn't use the previous search method to confirm the location and terrain of others.
Here, once Sheen released his magic power so blatantly, he would definitely be noticed by the high priest.
Therefore, Sean can only find his destination by relying on the intelligence sensed by [External Perception of Destiny].
The direction of the airflow.
Magic texture.
Vibrations formed by various movements.
A slight strange sound.
The existence of these kinds of things has become the basis for Sheen at this moment to gather intelligence in this space, allowing him to think while maintaining the hidden state under [Lijue Destiny], following the passage, all the way Going forward, even though the pace is slow, it moves forward with firmness.
On the way, Sheen didn't encounter any knights on patrol.
Perhaps it was because this area was a relatively important area, and other people were not allowed to approach, and Shinn didn't find any traces of patrolling.
But no one is patrolling, it doesn't mean that there is no "other existence" guarding here.
Sheehan stopped at the end of a passage, looked at the scene in front of him, and was speechless for several seconds.
"——"
A shocking pressure is permeating here.
The source of stress is a giant lying on the ground.
Sheehan was quite familiar with that behemoth.
Because he also has one in his family.
That is...
"Dragon... ?"
The behemoth lying at the end of the passage is a dragon.
No, to be more precise, it was not a living dragon, but a "dead dragon".
It has a pair of tattered dragon wings, the film on the dragon wings appears torn, and the flesh and blood have disappeared a lot, leaving the bones exposed to the air, which is very obvious.
Its whole body has rotted, at least half of it rotted, not only can't see any intact place, even the internal organs have disappeared without a trace, only a very huge magic crystal is inlaid on its chest, It seemed to replace the heart, while exuding magical brilliance, it turned steadily.
This can't be called a dragon at all, it can only be said to be a dragon corpse.
But this dragon corpse has obviously undergone transformation, and the body exudes a very strong death energy. At this moment, it is lying there like a nap, and the eyes that have lost their eyeballs are replaced by dark green light spots. The pupils flickered, telling Sheen that this corpse dragon was able to move.
Needless to say...
"Is this the dragon resurrected and manipulated by the necromantic magic of that high priest?"
Its level is as high as ninety-one, and it actually has legendary combat power.
"In a small secret base, two legendary existences appeared one after another..."
When did the existence of Legendary rank become so worthless
Of course, the corpse dragon in front of him was the dependent of the necromancer, strictly speaking, it was a magic product, and it was not a complete legendary existence.
But even so, the opponent's legendary combat power is beyond doubt.
"It's worthy of the rumored necromantic magic. It has created the taboo power of millions of necromantic forces."
The magic that can manipulate the dead and subvert death is truly amazing.
However, Xien was more concerned about the situation behind the opponent than this corpse dragon.
It is an entrance and exit, with steps extending downward.
"In other words, is there the basement they just mentioned?"
Sheehan confirmed this.
"It seems that there is indeed a place that is not allowed to enter casually."
The legendary corpse dragon guarded this entrance, even lying in front of the entrance, completely blocking the entrance.
In such a situation, unless the other party gets up and moves, no one wants to go in.
fortunately...
"It's still useless for me."
Sheehan visually checked the direction and distance, then he teleported directly and appeared at the entrance.
He just passed the legendary gatekeeper corpse dragon and entered here.
"Go down."
After entering, Xien didn't hesitate, glanced at the corpse dragon that was still dozing behind him, and walked down the steps swayingly.
Presumably, no one would believe that someone could sneak in so silently to such an extent without attracting anyone's attention, right
Even the highest level of assassins came, I'm afraid they can't do this.
According to Sean's estimation, apart from himself, there is only Layxia that can sneak into this level of existence silently.
Of course, Nadula, the goddess of nature, can also do it.
That person's avatar is naturally a bit foul, if it were her, maybe she would have explored here more calmly than Sheen.
Sheeen went all the way down, fully turning on the perception ability of [External Enlightenment of Destiny], observing the surroundings, so as not to set off any traps.
But there seems to be no trap here.
"It should be thought that relying on that legendary corpse dragon is enough to block everything, right?"
Sheehan thought so.
When Sheen finished walking the steps and finally entered the basement, he realized that his thoughts were too naive.
Although there are no traps here, it is definitely not only guarded by a corpse dragon.
"Ho..."
"Ho..."
I saw that in the dim basement, a cry like a roar of a wild beast was undulating.
A group of figures slowly wandering here, like walking corpses one after another, very frightening.
However, it is not wrong to say that they are walking dead.
The figures wandering here are not people at all, but corpses.
That is the dead.
That is a dead soul.
Just like the corpse dragons outside, ghouls with rotted bodies, green eyes, ragged clothes, and hideous faces wandered here.
"...Am I coming to the zombie world?"
Sheehan only felt a physical discomfort for a while.
Now, he understood a little bit why Anima was so angry that she came directly and annihilated the domineering necromancer.
Not only was it because the other party was doing things that were unreasonable, but also because the use of the dead person's corpse was too blasphemous and would make the goddess of life angry and understandable.
Sean even saw two figures that seemed to be familiar.
"Aren't they the two of the First Knights led by the Duke of Sterling?"
Sheehan stared tightly in one of the directions.
There, there were two figures walking staggeringly, imprinting in Sheehan's eyes.
Sheehan recognized the two.
At that time in Cosmos, before the evil spirit erupted and was about to enter the dark temple, Sheen met them.
"Yuri Sterling..."
He is the chief of the knights led by the Duke of Sterling, Barry's own brother, and Limjo's uncle, a strong man with a level of eighty-eight and not far from the legendary level.
In the Cosmos incident, he disappeared with Limjo.
Unexpectedly, when I saw him again, he had already turned into a ghoul and became one of the many dead, wandering here.
Beside him, the leader of the First Knight Order who had targeted Sheen at the beginning was also there.
"Remember it's Sona, right?"
The head of the First Knights is Yuri's brother-in-law, and he has a rank of eighty.
But now, he has also become one of many ghouls and one of the watchdogs in this basement.
It was clear that Limjo was well outside, even holding power, but the two masters of the Sterling family who had disappeared with him fell into this field, even Sean felt a little sympathetic.
"At the beginning I advised you not to enter the place of evil, but unfortunately you didn't listen, so I can't blame others."
Sean shook his head, put the matter of these two people behind, and watched the surroundings.
After this observation, Sheen discovered that there are many cells in this basement.
The iron fence separates the caves and the outside space, making the outside of the cell full of wandering ghouls, and the inside of the cell is imprisoned by guarded people.
Sean frowned, and finally stepped forward helplessly, mixing into the many ghouls.
No way, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get close to those cells.
Sheehan watched the inside of the cell while paying attention not to touch the ghoul.
As a result, Sheen found that in the cell, there were actually female knights imprisoned.
Some of them were sitting on the straw with their knees shivering, some were sobbing and crying, and some of them looked dull, not knowing what they were thinking, but without exception, they were all stripped naked. , Naked.
This situation didn't make Sean feel full.
Because, this made Sheen feel that these female knights were raised like livestock.
They still have iron handcuffs on their necks, handcuffs and handcuffs on their hands and feet, and wounds on their bodies. They are obviously treated like torture.
Of course, this is not the most important thing.
Most importantly, Sheen recognized the identities of these female knights.
"They are the female knights of the Knights of Broken Blade, right?"
That's right.
These female knights are the second emperor of the Ragnar Empire, the guards of the princess who is called the Valkyrie.
Sheehan had dealt with each other in Cosmos and recognized them.
"so... "
Sheen seemed to have thought of something, narrowed his eyes, and stopped observing slowly, but jumped in and went deeper into the basement.
"Ho..."
"Ho..."
The ghouls who passed by Shinn seemed to have noticed some movement and couldn't help but stop and let out a low growl.
Sheehan ignored them and swept forward directly.
Before long, Sheen came to the deepest part of the basement and saw the largest and darkest cell.
Inside, a figure imprinted into Sheen's eyes.
"Sure enough..."
Sean stopped and stared at the opponent for a long time, and finally called out the opponent's name.
"Capelyn Ragnar..."
It is the princess's Royal Highness.
