"We're going to split up from here," Hethanna glanced at the witches present, as well as Hao Ren and Lily, "This is the Hall of the Divergent Road, and from this fork in the road you can go to the North Tower, the Graveyard, and the Shadow Cellar.I'll go to the North Tower to find a way to gain control of the Soulless Guard, and the witches will go to the Shadow Cellar, which is a node that maintains the boundaries of the Shadow World, and a lookout point where you can see the whole castle - I want you to keep an eye on the courtyard and report to me as soon as you spot a witcher coming in.As for the two of you ......"
Heatherian's gaze finally fell on Hao Ren and Lily, and after a slight hesitation, she nodded: "You go to the cemetery, if the 'incarnation' you mentioned has already started to move, I think you will be busy there." ”Hao Ren knew that Heathera's arrangement was a helpless move - in fact, if she didn't have no choice, she probably wouldn't let anyone except her go to the cemetery without supervision, but now that the soulless have all woken up, the appearance of the "Great Butler" also shows that the activities of these guards are losing their regularity, plus the witchers may enter this world at any time, Heatherian has to choose to split into several ways in order to save time.She was the only one who could regain control of the Soulless, and the rest were clearly split into two groups, and she was clearly more willing to trust Vivien's "friends" than the witches who didn't know the details, namely Hao Ren and Lily.Of course, the witches have no problem with this arrangement, they are quite clear about their own strength, even just dealing with the soulless miscellaneous soldiers in the courtyard has already made them feel a lot of pressure, and they are even more dangerous when they fought with the "big butler" just now, and Lady Mary knows very well that the effect that her group of people can have in battle is already the end.According to the plan agreed at the beginning, they only need to monitor the borders of the Shadow World in a safe place - it seems that the "Shadow Cellar" is the "safe zone" that Heatherian mentioned earlier."
How do we keep in touch?"
A witch asked.Hethanna waved her hand and condensed several blood-red crystals: "With these blood droplets, after infusing them with magic power, you can speak, and everyone who holds the fragments can hear it."
However, it is necessary to pay attention to the careful use of these fragments, these fragments are easily disturbed......"
Hao Ren saw this situation, opened the carry-on space casually and took out a few communicators: "Let's use these." ”Heatherena took the communicator handed over by Hao Ren, and curiously fiddled with the small silver-white metal square, feeling quite delicate: "What is this?"
”"The function is similar to your gem, but it's much stronger than that thing, not only can it transmit sound but also transmit pictures, and it's not afraid of interference or magic drive, you see there's a button here, after pressing it, you can start the mind interaction, something that is directly controlled by the brain, but anyone whose intelligence is stronger than a monkey can use it......"
Heatherian looked at the projection screen above the communicator in amazement, and when she looked at Hao Ren, her eyes became even more curious: "You won't say that this thing is also witchcraft, right- Did you dig Odin's grave or Zeus's grave?
”"Why do you say that?""
Such an intricate and magical thing looks like a legacy of the mythological era, and this shiny style is either from Olympus or Asgard......
But then again, their things don't seem to be so exquisite......
"Hao Renxin said that he had indeed dug the ancestral graves of these two "god systems", and even zoned the homesteads of the entire Nordic god system to build factories, but this must not be said explicitly.Anyway, the little bat spirit is willing to take the initiative to consider in this direction, which is also what he likes to see, and it is not in vain that he used similar statements to induce the other party before, so he nodded at the moment: "It's almost - you see that Vivian and I are friends, Vivian and Odin and Zeus had a good relationship with them back then, we think that in the mythological era, it was a fateful friendship, and it is nothing if I have the inheritance of those two families in my hand......"
"The fateful friendship so I dug up the ancestral graves?"
”The little bat spirit rolled her eyes, "No wonder I thought from the beginning that you were definitely not some human wizard that the witches said they were......
How could a human wizard have such a high status back then.So there's a good chance you're a silver wizard from Mesopotamia, right?
Tsk, the identity is quite tight. ”Hao Ren looked at the sky: "It's no problem if you want to understand it like this." ”"Alright, everybody put this ......
"Heatherena waved her hand, indicating that she did not want to further into Hao Ren's identity, and motioned for the witches to take the communicator, "Take the door over there in the Shadow Cellar, and when you get to the end, you will see an oak door depicting a black swirl, go in and go down the stairs.Take the other side of the cemetery and turn right at every fork you see, until you see a wall of thorns and roses, a phantom that you can walk through as long as you are determined—I don't think you two will be able to handle this challenge.I'll head straight to the North Tower, which is the closest to here, and if it goes well, I'll be in control before you each reach your destination. ”Helen the witch asked with some concern, "Won't we ever meet the Soulless again?"
”"The Great Butler has just been defeated by us, and its 'death' will temporarily inhibit the activities of the Soulless Guards within the inner court, and its resurrection is slower than that of other Soulless, so you still have at least half an hour to go - if you can't reach the Shadow Cellar after half an hour, then you will fend for yourself, there is no need for waste to survive in this kind of place."
Heatherian's emotionless words made the witches shudder in unison, and Lady Mary did not dare to say anything more, and hurried out of the hall with her own people through one of the three gates."
Let's go this way," Hao Ren pulled Lily to get ready to go, not forgetting to tell the little bat, "You have to be careful, I can see that seizing control of the Soulless Guards is not as simple as you say it yourself." ”"It's going to take a lot of work, but I'm 100 percent sure," Hethanna smiled, then looked at Hasselblad who was still being carried by Lily with a slight frown, "Are you really going to take this guy all the way?"
I don't understand what you're planning to do - but you're likely to be in great danger at the graveyard, and it seems to me that this witcher is a complete burden at this moment. ”Almost before Heatherana could finish speaking, Hasselblad's body suddenly shook, but before the unlucky old hunter could speak this time, he saw Lily take the alloy sword with her free right hand and slap it round: "Hey!!
”"Bang !!"
Hao Ren couldn't help but feel excited: "Lily, you don't have to be so positive—let him come in handy later!"
”After saying that, he nodded to Heatherana: "Don't worry, this witcher is really useful."
Then let's leave it at that, and keep in touch when 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 fall of the leader of the Inner Guard, the Grand Butler, nearly half of the castle fell silent.Soulless no longer emerge from the murals and sculptures, and malicious limbs and swords no longer pop out of the shadows, the castle created by Vivien's dreams in the depths of the shadows seems to be completely frozen into a black and white silent film, silent in the deep corridors without the slightest color, and if it weren't for the rapid footsteps of Hao Ren and Lily finally breaking the silence, the world would simply make people go crazy.The two of them hurried through the seemingly endless corridors, and from time to time they passed some strange rooms on either side of them: the doors of those rooms were wide open, and there were strange scenes inside, and out of the corner of his eye, Hao Ren saw that some rooms were filled with mirrors large and small, and in others stood men and women in gowns, as if they were going to hold a banquet but stood with blank faces, and in other rooms were piled with gold and silver treasures or fine food and wine, in the most bizarre rooms, Hao Ren even saw an ocean—a gray-white ocean, undulating silently, and the Vikings' dragon head ships riding the wind and waves on the sea, and the sight of the churning waves almost caused Lily to lose her mind and enter the room."
Don't go into any of the rooms," Hethana's voice came from the communicator, "most of the rooms lead to nightmares or deeper shadows, from which no one can live out, and there have been countless unlucky people who have stumbled into this world over the past two hundred years, including even a few werewolves and blood servants who were sent in by Harron as 'sacrifices', all of whom became part of these rooms, suffering eternal torment and remorse until Lord Vivien woke up." ”"Where are you now?"
Hao Ren asked."
I've come to the North Tower, and I'm unlocking the first Shadow Lock," Heatherian replied, "and I'm going to concentrate on what is here, and I won't talk to you if I don't have to." ”"We've seen the door to the Shadow Cellar," said Helen the witch in the communicator, "and it's dangerous, Gina almost walked in after seeing a mirror in a room. ”Hao Ren and Lily sped for a while, and finally walked out of the hallway and came to an open foyer.In front of the foyer, twisted brambles and black roses weave into a formidable-looking rampart, "We've arrived, too." ”Hao Ren said in the communicator.
