"We're going to split up from here." Heatherana glanced at the witches present, as well as Hao Ren and Lily, "This is the Forked Road Hall. From here, you can go to the North Tower, the Cemetery and Shadow Cellar. I went to the North Tower to find a way to gain control of the Soulless Guard, and the witches went to the Shadow Cellar. That place is a node that maintains the border of the Shadow World, and it is also a surveillance point. You can see the movement of the entire castle from there— I want you to keep an eye on the courtyard and report to me immediately if you see a witcher coming in. As for the two of you..."
Heatherana's gaze finally landed on Hao Ren and Lily, and after a little hesitation, she nodded: "Go to the cemetery, if the 'avatar' you mentioned has started to move, I think you will be there busy."
Hao Ren knew that Hesianna's arrangement was helpless—in fact, if she hadn't had no choice, she probably wouldn't let anyone else go to the cemetery without being monitored, but now the soulless They have all woken up, and the appearance of the "big steward" also shows that the activities of these guards are losing their regularity. In addition, the demon hunter may enter this world at any time, so Hessiana had to choose to divide into several routes in order to save time. She is the only one who can regain control of the Soulless, and the rest are obviously divided into two groups. Compared with the witches who don't know the details, she is obviously more willing to trust Lord Vivian's "friend", that is, Hao Renhe lily.
Of course, the witches have no objection to this arrangement. They are quite clear about their own strength. Even if they just deal with the soulless soldiers in the courtyard, they already feel a lot of pressure. There are frequent dangers, and Mrs. Mary knows very well that the role that her group of people can have in the battle has come to an end.
According to the plan agreed at the beginning, they only need to monitor the border of the shadow world in a safe place-it seems that the "shadow cellar" is the "safe area" mentioned by Heatherana before.
"How do we keep in touch?" A witch asked.
Heather Anna waved her hand and condensed several blood-red crystals: "Use these blood drop fragments, and after injecting magic power, you can speak, and everyone who holds the fragments can hear them. But be careful when using them, these fragments are easy Disturbed...”
Hao Ren saw the situation, opened the portable space and took out several communicators: "Let's use these."
Heather Anna took the communicator from Hao Ren, and played with the small silver-white metal cube curiously, feeling quite delicate: "What is this?"
"The function is similar to your gemstone, but it is much better than that thing. It can not only transmit sound but also transmit images, and it is not afraid of interference and does not need magic power. Look here there is a button. After pressing it, you can activate your mind. Interactive, direct brain-controlled things, as long as the intelligence is stronger than the monkey, it can be used... "
Heatherana looked at the projection screen that appeared above the communicator in amazement, and then looked at Hao Ren with even more curious eyes: "You won't say that this thing is also witchcraft-you dug Odin's grave Ah, or plan the tomb of Zeus?"
"Why do you say that?"
"Such a delicate and magical thing looks like a legacy from the age of mythology, and this shiny style is either from Mount Olympus or from Asgard... But then again, it seems that they don't have any So exquisite…”
Hao Renxin said that he had indeed dug up the ancestral graves of these two "divine systems", and even set aside the homesteads of the entire Nordic divine system to build factories, but he definitely couldn't say that clearly. Anyway, he likes the fact that the little bat spirit is willing to take the initiative to think in this direction. It is not in vain that he used similar words to induce the other party, so he nodded at this moment: "Almost—you see, Vivian and I are friends, Vivienne Wei'an had a good relationship with Odin and Zeus back then, we thought it was a fateful friendship in the Age of Mythology, and it's not a big deal for me to have the inheritance of those two families... "
"You've dug up people's ancestral graves because of a deadly friendship?" The little bat spirit rolled his eyes, "No wonder I thought from the very beginning that you must not be the human wizard that those witches said... How could a human wizard be so tall back then? Status. So you are probably a silver wizard from Mesopotamia, right? Tsk, your identity is kept very tight."
Hao Ren looked at the sky: "It's okay if you understand like this."
"Okay, everyone, bring this...communicator with you," Heatherana waved her hand, indicating that she had no intention of further investigating Hao Ren's identity, and at the same time signaled to the witches to take the communicator, "Go to the Shadow Vault and that's there." There is a door at the end, you will see an oak door depicting a black swirl, go in and go down the stairs. Go to the door on the other side of the cemetery area, and turn right at every bifurcation point you see , until a wall formed of thorns and roses appears in front of you. The wall of roses is a phantom, as long as you are determined and walk over it-I think the two of you should not be able to handle this challenge. I will directly Go to the North Tower, which is the closest to here, and if all goes well, I will gain control before you reach your destination."
Witch Helen asked with some concern: "Will we not encounter soulless people again?"
"The butler has just been defeated by us, and its 'death' will temporarily suppress the activities of the soulless guards within the inner court. Its resurrection is slower than other soulless people, so you still have at least half an hour—after half an hour If you still can't reach the Shadow Vault, then you can just fend for yourself, there is no need for waste to live in this kind of place."
Hessiana's emotionless words made the witches tremble in unison. Madam Mary didn't dare to say any more, and hurriedly left the hall with her people through one of the three gates.
"Let's go this way," Hao Ren pulled Lili to go, and he didn't forget to tell the little bat, "Be careful, I can see that taking control of the Soulless Guard is not as simple as you said .”
"It does take a lot of trouble, but I'm 100% sure," Heatherana smiled, then frowned slightly and looked at Hasselblad, who was still carried by Lily on her shoulders, "Are you really planning to take this guy all the way?" I don’t understand what your plan is—but when you arrive at the cemetery, you are likely to encounter great danger, and in my opinion, this witcher is completely a burden at this moment.”
Almost before Heatherana finished speaking, Hasselblad's body suddenly trembled, but before the unlucky old hunter could speak this time, he saw Lily swinging the big alloy sword with her free right hand. Rounded it up and patted it up: "Hey!!"
"boom!!!"
Hao Ren couldn't help but get excited: "Lily, you don't have to be so active—he will come in handy later!"
After speaking, he nodded to Hesiana: "Don't worry, this witcher is really useful. Then let's say goodbye and keep in touch if there is a situation."
Then without waiting for the little bat to react, he took Lily and strode towards the passage leading to the cemetery.
After the leader of the inner court guards, the Chief Steward, fell, nearly half of the castle fell silent.
Soulless people no longer emerge from murals and sculptures, and malicious limbs and swords and weapons no longer suddenly emerge from the shadows. This castle in the depths of the shadows and created by Vivienne's dream seems to be completely frozen It became a black-and-white silent film, and there was no sound in the deep corridor without the slightest color. If Hao Ren and Lili's hasty footsteps hadn't finally broken the silence, this world would have made people go crazy.
The two of them were running fast in the seemingly endless corridor, passing some weird rooms from time to time on either side of them: the doors of those rooms were wide open, and there were strange scenes inside, Hao Ren saw it out of the corner of his eye. Some rooms are full of large and small mirrors, others are full of men and women in full dress, as if they are going to hold a banquet but standing blankly, and some rooms are full of gold and silver treasures or fine wine In the most bizarre room, Hao Ren even saw an ocean—a gray-white ocean, undulating silently, and the Viking's dragon-headed ship was riding the wind and waves on the sea surface. The scene of the waves churning almost made Lily lose her mind. walked into the room.
"Don't go into any room," Heatherana's voice came from the communicator, "Most rooms lead to nightmares or deeper shadow worlds, no one can come out of them alive, the past two hundred years There are countless unlucky people who walked into this world by accident, even including a few werewolves and blood servants who were sent in as "sacrifices" by Harrown. They all became part of these rooms. Eternal torment and remorse before waking up."
"Where are you now?" Hao Ren asked.
"I've come to the North Tower, and I'm unlocking the first shadow fan lock," Heatherana replied, "Next, I will concentrate on dealing with the things here, and I won't talk to you if there is no situation."
"We have already seen the gate of the Shadow Cellar," Witch Helen also said in the communicator, "It's so dangerous, just now Jin Na lost her mind after seeing a mirror in a room, and almost walked in."
Hao Ren and Lily ran quickly for a while, and finally walked out of the corridor and came to an open hall.
In front of the hall, twisted thorns and black roses interweave into a daunting barrier, under which there are dense bones.
"We're here too."
Hao Ren said in the communicator.
