In the long and dark valley passage,
Clang clang clang ~ the sound of chains colliding could be heard continuously.
A man and a woman were walking through it, their wrists linked by chains to prevent them from being separated.
The iron chain came from the man's body, and there was a burning white candle on the woman's head. It was indeed a candle doll specially used to explore extremely dark places. It could still keep the white light burning after staying in the original tomb for such a long time.
At this moment, an independent group of dark hair covered with burn marks emerged from the shoulder and stood with its hands on its hips.
The mouth with the eyeball structure made a mixed sound: "William, why do I feel that you have been down there for so long, and your mentality has changed... Those 'things' that you completely sealed up seem to have overflowed a lot."
"Is there?" Yi Chen turned his head and asked with a smile.
"It's obvious~ Even now, it feels like you would kill me too.
I suspect that the death in the original tomb infiltrated your soul invisibly, or that when you fought against the abyss death statue, the 'deep death' that seemed to have no effect on you was actually infiltrating deep in your brain, destroying the 'memory safe' you created."
Now that Little Grape had come to this, Yi Chen's smile turned cold, and a voice as cold as ice crystals spilled out from his frozen lips.
“Really… No wonder Stephen and the craftsman noticed something. It looks like I’ll have to spend some time reinforcing the safe. The “nature” that my genes and the orphanage gave me is indeed difficult to completely seal off.
My current strength is not enough to reveal my true self.
By the way, Little Grape, don't you like the original tomb very much? If you stay in the original tomb, you may even have a chance to activate all the old corpses in your body and find a 'tombstone path' that suits you, but you don't seem to have mentioned this to me throughout the whole process."
Little Grape said with disdain, "Aren't you going to the leather factory next? Without my eyes, can you really see through some hidden things
If you could keep that pervert Stephen around and make full use of his ears, I definitely wouldn't go.
Unfortunately, others are still unwilling, so I will have to continue to accompany you... As for the activation of the mixed ancient corpse in my body, just do it step by step~ When the time comes, remember to kill more enemies and give me more grapes. "
Yi Chen smiled normally and continued walking through the valley.
When the city gate with a large number of dead bodies hanging on it comes into view, it means that you have walked out of the canyon and left the realm of the dead.
At the same time, the bonfire in the mountains also shone down.
Hiss hiss hiss~ When the strong bonfire fell on Yi Chen, wisps of white smoke actually rose.
Due to living in the original tomb for a long time, Yi Chen seemed to have been partially assimilated, so that he was regarded as a dead person by the bonfire and was not allowed to leave.
He stood there for more than ten minutes, until the white smoke on his body stopped rising and the "identity recognition" was completed before he continued to move forward... During this period, Yi Chen also took off all the iron chain masks, replaced them with the gray scarf that Little Grape had transformed into, and changed his clothes to a relatively normal high-necked windbreaker style.
The hanged body began to spin and the city gates opened for it.
Just as Yi Chen was about to go straight through the fortress and head to the plains to take the black worm train,
Ga!
The crows are wailing,
A knight with a pair of pitch-black wings and a crow mask descended heavily, blocking the way... And with the arrival of this knight, the sky above the entire Black Mouth City was filled with crows.
Renato Battis,
The Knights of the Deathly Plague were assigned as temporary lords of the Black Mouth City. They were also known as the Crow of Mourning. They were knights in the Knights of the Order who were good at frontline reconnaissance and covert attacks.
Although his overall strength ranks low, his reconnaissance is still very important to the Knights.
Renato also noticed the skull pendant on Yi Chen's chest at a glance, and joked: "Oh, you have become a "high-class dead citizen" in less than a month? It seems that you don't plan to stay here, or did you fail the knight assessment and were forced to leave?"
"Mr. Renato, my journey to the original tomb has ended, and I am ready to leave here now."
Although Yi Chen was well aware that the man in front of him had once induced him to go to the mountain bonfire, he still responded respectfully. After all, he was about to leave and there was no need to make enemies.
"Journey? You mean, you just came here to take a look, treating the original tomb, a great area representing the origin of death, as an ordinary tourist attraction... This won't do!
Otherwise, what if our place really becomes a tourist attraction? All patients would come to take a look, bringing endless risks to the original tomb.
As the guardian of the pass, I will never allow this to happen."
As soon as these words came out, Yi Chen also heard that the other party was deliberately looking for trouble, probably because of the last bonfire incident. But not only did he not feel unhappy, but a wicked smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Yi Chen stepped his head forward slightly, kept smiling evilly and tilted his head slightly to ask: "What does Mr. Renato want to do?"
“Since you are here, you can’t leave so easily… I will give you two choices. As long as you can achieve one of them, the conditions will be met, and I will allow you to leave completely, and even send my crows to escort you away.
First, you must stay inside the Kurokou Fortress as my direct subordinate for a period of twenty years.
Second, go to the campfire in the mountains and absorb as much fire core as possible to weaken the campfire's intensity by 10%.
Make your choice? The dead from the outside."
Yi Chen still kept smiling and did not give a direct answer. He walked to Renato's side with relaxed and comfortable steps.
Pah~ The right hand of friendship gently falls on the other's shoulder, and even strokes the crow feathers between the knight's armor.
His lips were as close to Renato's ears as possible, and they trembled and pronounced together. A sound that could not be rejected or offset went straight into the other person's brain:
"I choose the third option... Get out of here now!"
The last word, combined with the effect of brain epilepsy, seemed to explode in Renato's brain, and even forced him to shake his head, with black blood flowing out of all seven orifices.
Quack quack~
At this moment, the army of crows on Heikou City pressed down frantically, almost covering the entire city. Their dark eyes stared at Yi Chen, treating him as their mortal enemy.
It seems that a war is about to be triggered here.
Renato had never expected that an outsider who was just an open source would dare to openly challenge him, the Knight of Death, in the area of the dead.
Just when he was about to kill this ungrateful guy.
Hiss, hiss, hiss~ A large amount of white smoke rose from the shoulder where Yi Chen's palm was pressed. At the same time, he could feel the strong pinch from five fingers and the painful piercing of the iron chain.
Turning his head, he saw that Yi Chen's palm was suddenly covered by Yu Jin.
Renato exclaimed, "Evil Sun!"
At this moment, the bonfire burning in the mountains seemed to sense the "breath of the father". A beam of white light suddenly shot out, piercing through the crows and landing on Yi Chen and Renato.
Just like the spotlight on the stage, it focuses on the two protagonists of this stage play.
The burning from the campfire made Renato miserable, and all the attributes of his body were greatly weakened.
"Mr. Renato, don't make the mistake... I didn't kill you right away because my life in the original tomb has been pretty good during this period, and the dead have been very kind to me.
If you dare to do anything while I'm away from Heikou City, I'll just use my sword to sharpen you!
Thirteen, let’s go.”
Yi Chen remained in a state of unrestricted state, with his clothes covered with grains of salt lifted by the wind. He led Shisan across Heikou City, and no one dared to stop him.
Renato, known as the Mourning Crow, was stunned the whole time, and did not come back to his senses until Yi Chen left the city... He was angry, ashamed and indignant, but helpless.
As a dead person, he actually felt that death was really possible.
The crows dispersed,
Renato retreated to the attic and began to torture the dead people imprisoned in the secret room crazily to vent his impotent anger.
