In the depths of the outpost, which was supposed to be a warehouse for storing materials, it turned into a huge pit at some point.
The huge pit not only swallowed up the original warehouse, but also made the ground of the entire outpost camp shattered.
Aishik, who was wearing a robe, walked down the rope with ease.
Although his body was no longer young, such a simple matter was still difficult for Aishik, not to mention that he was still in a very safe place.
"How do grown-ups do that?"
"What was the darkness before?"
"And the pit here..."
Thinking of Dade's order, Ishik was full of doubts.
However, it was precisely because of his doubts that Aishik was more motivated to complete the tasks arranged by Dade.
In addition to satisfying curiosity, it is naturally a generous reward.
Thinking that he would soon have the strong and energetic body of his youth again, Aishik moved even faster.
When Aishik's feet landed on the ground, the oil lamps that had been prepared earlier were lit.
In the faint light, the strange-shaped stones in the underground pits and the wet ground were printed into the ground of Aishik one by one.
At the same time, a faint stench kept penetrating into Aishik's nose.
He raised his hand and covered his mouth and nose.
Ishik followed Dade's previous prompt and walked in the direction of the source of the stench.
The stench quickly changed from light to strong.
Even though he covered his mouth and nose, Aishik retched without listening.
That smell is really too stinky.
Aishik could swear that even the rotting corpses stuffed in the cellar didn't have such a smell, but soon, the stench began to disappear quickly.
When Ishik followed the smell and walked about 30 meters, the stench completely disappeared.
In front of his eyes, a magic circle with complicated layout, which ordinary people would feel dizzy just by looking at it, appeared there.
The most eye-catching thing is naturally the core position of the magic circle.
A pitch-black jar lay there.
Under the light of the oil lamp, the pitch black shone with metallic reflections.
"found it!"
"This is it!"
Aishik suppressed his excitement, took out a scroll from his arms, and carefully tore it open. After the light escaping from it completely enveloped his whole body, he walked towards the magic circle.
This is the means of protection given to him by Dade.
Only with this layer of protection can one avoid being hurt by this magic circle.
Aishik, who was wearing protection, approached the pitch-black jar step by step.
Eshik's eyes were fixed on the target.
Therefore, he did not notice that the magic circle had undergone extremely subtle changes.
In fact, the change began when Ishik tore open the scroll.
It's just that when Aishik walked into the magic circle, the changes began to accelerate.
When Ishik walked up to the pitch-black jar and picked it up, the change was complete.
The darkness that was deepened by the darkness in front of him rose up like smoke from the pitch black attached to the surface of the jar, and instantly turned into a shadow monster with claws, a head, and a torso that was twice the size of an ordinary person.
The monster opened its mouth and let out bursts of laughter.
Harsh and deadly.
The moment Aishik heard this laughter, his eyeballs shattered, his ears bled, and his whole body lost the breath of life.
To the end of his life, Ishik didn't understand why the protection Dade gave him didn't work.
That is naturally because the inside of the scroll is not any protection at all, but—
call!
Following the death of Aishik, the light that escaped from the scroll quickly merged into the corpse.
Then, Ishik's body swelled up like a blown balloon.
From the appearance of an ordinary person, it stopped when it became about three meters tall.
Then, the 'giantized' Ishik got up.
With broken eyes, or to be precise, the eye sockets, he stared at the shadow-like monster.
Although the 'giantized' Ashik is one size smaller than the shadow monster at this moment, the aura emanating from his body is not inferior.
The savage and tyrannical atmosphere blows the entire crypt like a typhoon.
Smaller stones are blown up.
The strange rocks that were not strong enough were blown apart.
But the shadow monster like smoke and mist was not blown at all. In the strange and cold atmosphere, it was like a solid piece of thousand-year-old ice.
Laughter appeared again.
It was more piercing and deadly than before.
Ripples, like ripples in the lake water, hit the 'giantized' Aishik.
Puff puff!
The flesh and blood on the 'giantized' Ishik's body burst open immediately, and the blood flowed profusely, and the bones could be seen deep.
However, facing such an injury, the 'giantized' Ishik didn't care, and even... laughed out loud.
"Hahaha!"
"I knew you'd leave some 'stuff' in these places."
"And they will be my clues to find you."
The laughter was rough and powerful, not Isiac's voice at all, but Dudd's.
Dade, known as the 'giant', borrowed Ishik's body and let out a matching laugh.
The shadow monster turned a deaf ear.
It just increased the attack of the sound wave.
"Although it's a useless body, I won't be willing to be destroyed by you like this—the shadow you leave behind must be delicious, right?"
"I can't wait to taste it!"
With a laugh, Dade, who had the body of Ishik, rushed straight at the shadow monster.
Shadow monsters don't know how to dodge at all.
In this way, Dade, who was borrowing Ishik's body, 'bitten' on the torso, as if sucking liquid food, Dade kept sucking and swallowing.
The body of the shadow monster shrinks at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At the same time, an increasingly cold force began to appear in the shadow monster's body.
"You still want to fight back?"
"come on!"
“I don't mind tasting stronger 'food'”
Dade, who was not letting go of his mouth, said in a vague sentence.
"food?"
"You never understand, who is the food!"
A sudden voice sounded from the shadow monster.
Then, the shadow monster that looked like smoke exploded just like that, turning into a cloud of thin smoke, enveloping Dade who had borrowed Ishik's body.
"Hahaha!"
"This kind of 'dinner' is also good!"
"Let's see who can eat who!"
Dud continued to laugh.
The smoke from the shadow monster continued to flow until a sound appeared.
"Dinner?"
"Sounds good, how about adding me?"
The sound, the sword arrives.
A 20-meter-long lightsaber tore through the darkness, shining throughout the crypt, and with an indomitable momentum, it slashed past two monsters who were indistinguishable from each other.
