The dark and lightless well gives people a particularly depressing feeling, like a death road leading to the underground abyss. Even though the danger has been temporarily eliminated, and all those strange snake-like creatures have receded, the sound coming from the bottom of the well The sense of danger... never went away.
When everyone took out their flashlights as lighting objects, under the dazzling white light, the spiral stairway seemed to become illusory and hazy, as if it had turned into a spiral vortex in the water, and there would be some strange things when you looked deep into the bottom of the well. Feeling dizzy, a bit like motion sickness, it seems that the individual's consciousness has been confused by this spiral staircase.
"The situation is not good." Chen Xian said in a low voice, took a flashlight to shine on the wellhead sealed by vines, and glanced around a few times, the expression on his face became more and more serious, "It seems that something is forcing us to go down .”
Accompanied by a huge roar, Mr. Skeleton gradually began to destroy the mouth of the well, but no matter how powerful he used to move the mountain, the vines could not be shaken at all.
Those seemingly weak black vines are harder than metal, and judging from the current observation results, they also have some kind of weird toughness. Whenever they are attacked by Mr. Skeleton, the whole will sag outwards very slowly. A few centimeters seemed to be using this movement to offset the impact, and every attack would be so perfectly resolved by them.
This crazy offensive continued for nearly five minutes, and finally ended with Mr. Skeleton in vain. In terms of the destructive power he can display so far, he is not enough to destroy the vines blocking the way.
"We can't go out for the time being."
Mr. Skeleton sat cross-legged on the steps, looking up at the wellhead covered by vines, his eyes were already full of dignity.
Could it be that the gods that these Meishan people talk about... are really that powerful
Or is there really a "god" in this world
Mr. Skeleton pondered over these questions, struggling to find answers in his mind. In his long life, he has seen too many unreal existences, such as the "gods" that humans say. In his opinion, those so-called God is nothing more than an extraordinary life form, if one day he is also powerful to that extent... He does not need others to believe in him, he is also a god himself.
But the strange thing is that the living body in this deep ancient well... the breath it emits is very strange.
Especially after the mouth of the well was sealed by those vines, the air here was no longer able to circulate, and the breath coming from the bottom of the well became easier to perceive.
It is an ancient breath, which is very similar to the breath of Mr. Skeleton's body. It seems to be an ancient life that has survived from that long time, but it is different from Mr. Skeleton's breath. The breath of life at the bottom of the well has Strong adhesion, whether it is the bricks that can be seen everywhere in the spiral staircase, or the moss that can be found occasionally on the edge of the well wall, they are all contaminated by the breath of that strange life... No, it is not so much contamination, it is better to say that they are related to That life merged into one.
All objects that Mr. Skeleton can perceive are filled with that weird atmosphere, as if the entire space is connected with that life, and it seems that this stairway is a part of that life...
"This time the risk is great." Chen Xian sighed in a low voice. In order to avoid causing panic to others, he also deliberately lowered the volume, which sounded a bit like he was complaining to Mr. Skeleton.
"That life should be the same as me. It has survived for a long time." Mr. Skeleton kept looking around, and the ubiquitous aura around him made him a little uneasy, "I'm not sure about killing it, at least... I can't destroy the vines it summons, and I can't compare to it in this regard."
Hearing Mr. Skeleton's words, Chen Xian couldn't help but feel a little nervous. After all, Mr. Skeleton's highest combat strength in the team is now, and even he bluntly said that he can't beat the opponent... What chances do the others have
At this time, Mr. Skeleton seemed to have noticed the change in Chen Xian's mood, turned his face to look at him, and said in a low voice.
"Actually, you can give it a try."
"Try it?"
"I still have some abilities that I haven't used yet, because I'm not in a desperate situation yet, so I dare not use them. Those abilities are very depleting to me. Once I use those abilities, I will soon..." Mr. Skeleton seemed to be comforting Chen. Leisurely, but the voice of speaking is getting lower and lower.
"What will happen to you?" Chen Xian asked cautiously, "Will you die?"
"I will lose my ability to move for a period of time." Mr. Skeleton said helplessly, "If I still fail to kill the god of Meishan at that point, I may really die at its hands."
Hearing this, Chen Xian fell silent, nodded and stopped talking.
"Boss, what should we do now?" Lu Yisheng stood aside and looked around. The deep and dark spiral staircase brought him a great sense of oppression, which made him feel a little difficult to breathe, "Think Way to get out or keep going down?"
"I don't really want to go down." Li Daosheng shrank aside, as if he felt the sense of danger that could not be ignored, his voice became very low, "Don't blame me for speaking in frustration, I feel that we are going to die if we go down."
"I think so too." Xu Yanan sighed, with an ugly expression on his face.
"But is there any other way for us to go now?" Lu Yisheng picked his ears and asked helplessly, "We can't go up in this situation, so we can only go down to find the master."
During this process, the old man did not speak and stood quietly in the corner.
He looked up at the mouth of the well from time to time, and looked down to the bottom of the well from time to time, as if he was thinking about something.
"Is there a way for you to get out?" Chen Xian asked with a glimmer of hope.
The old man shook his head and said that he would definitely not be able to get out, but... everyone may not necessarily die.
"Those vines seem to be the hand of God." The old man looked at the densely layered black vines above his head calmly by the light of the flashlight, "It relies on these vines to kill those disobedient people in the mountains. "
"It relies on these vines?" Chen Xian frowned, and couldn't help asking, "Then why doesn't it use these vines to attack us?"
"I don't know." The old man shook his head and said, "But I heard from the priest that the god's body doesn't seem to be very good all the time, especially before it fully recovers, the reason why it needs those sacrifices is because it wants to protect itself. The more... just like being sick, once the sacrifices are not supported, the god will also weaken."
As he spoke, the old man raised his finger and pointed to the inconspicuous dark yellow spots on the vines.
"Whenever it gets weak, these dead spots will grow on its hands. The more these dead spots, the weaker its body will be. If it doesn't get the sacrifices in time... it will be very angry."
"What happens when it gets angry?" Lu Yisheng asked curiously.
"The priest will pick a disobedient person from the village and escort him into the woods in the mountains where sacrifices are made, and then let him kill the sacrifices himself... The pine forest before was such a place," the old man replied. .
Chen Xian looked up at the vine, and seemed to realize something, so he asked.
"It controls the vines to kill people in a fixed place?"
"Yes." The old man nodded.
"It seems that its ability is also limited..." Chen Xian murmured, with a relaxed expression on his face, "It doesn't seem to be as strong as I thought."
According to the old man, judging from the spots on the vines, the current Meishan God should be in a weak state, at least weaker than usual... If you want to kill it, maybe this is an opportunity.
Of course, apart from being fortunate, Chen Xian was also a little apprehensive.
If this time they're facing the Meishan god in his prime...how scary is it
From the previous fights, it can be seen that the Meishan God did not use his full strength at all, but simply made some snake-like creatures out to do things. Those weird lives are already very difficult for everyone, let alone the constant The Meishan God behind the scenes
"Go down and have a look." Mr. Skeleton said, and lightly patted Chen Xian on the shoulder. The bloody and bloody skeleton face couldn't show much expression, but Chen Xian could still see an inexplicable expression on his face. Reliable, "If we can't fight against it, we will run out the same way. In the state of exerting all our strength, I am sure that I can tear the vines at the mouth of the well."
Chen Xian took a deep look at Mr. Skull, and nodded silently.
"Everyone, be careful, don't fall behind... Let's go down and have a look!"
