Chapter 2631: Wax corpse

   Chapter 2631 Wax Corpse
  Way swallowed a bit nervously, obviously he was a little afraid, but still said: "Kael, you must not scare yourself."
  Kael didn't speak anymore, he was afraid that the crow's mouth would be real.
  Although he is only an apprentice, and his inspiration is not as strong as a formal wizard, he will be a little "surprise" from time to time. And this kind of surprise, to put it bluntly, is a good spirit.
  Kael prayed silently in her heart: He just said nonsense, don’t work, don’t...
"Although Wye was a bit wrong, but at least what he said was right." When Anger saw the two apprentices trembling in a hug, he finally couldn't bear it, and said: "There is really a normal-sized fork, and it is the same as the dog hole. In fact, it’s easier for us to find the clues. Don’t underestimate the wizard’s ability."
  Angel didn't say this to comfort them, and it was indeed the case.
  Don’t look at them as if they were not wary, and walked straight forward without fear. But whether it is Angel or Earl Black, they are observing the surrounding details in their own way.
  For example, the olfactory positioning point set by Earl Black. In addition, Angel was also observing the direction of the magic patterns on the surrounding walls and the ground along the way.
  Assuming that the dog hole is really big enough to be true, then the corresponding size must correspond to the corresponding complicated magic pattern. Angel can completely determine the specific situation by the direction of the magic pattern, which is easier to judge than the current dog hole.
  Angel: "Speaking of which, I'm really looking forward to having a dog hole the size of what you said, which can help us solve our doubts. Is it a trap of human control or... some kind of creature?"
  Wood can be a spirit, and the stone on the wall can be a spirit. Isn't this a basic operation? Of course, if you think about it, you can think of it this way. What is truly a spiritual object requires the right time and place, and the spirit of the wizarding world will not be so small.
  For Angel’s words, everyone else listened in reverse. After all, who would have nothing to hope that unknown dangers would be encountered during the expedition?
   However, Angel really wants to encounter a large "dog hole". The second is to solve the puzzle. What he wants to know is, what is the reason for the "dog hole" to discover their existence?
  You know, this is not the first time.
  Although outsiders only regard Angel’s chief position as an alchemist, Angel’s own ranking is based on illusion and supplemented by alchemy.
  In fact, Angel did indeed do this. His illusion, as long as the power of nightmare was added, even Sanders would be difficult to break at a glance. This means that Angel's illusion skills have far surpassed his own realm. Even if you encounter a True Knowledge-level opponent, it is not difficult to control the opponent for a short time through illusion.
   But this time, Angel encountered Waterloo in succession in the illusion that he considered his best.
  When the dog hole appeared for the first time, Angel didn't care because he didn't know the principle of the dog hole.
  Later, Earl Black said that when the dog hole opens when encountering talents, no one will close it. At that time, although he did not show anything, he silently remembered it in his heart.
  Until later, before they entered the stinky water ditch, Angel used the guise of adding a few more layers of purifying force field, which also strengthened the concealment ability of the illusion. Angel just subconsciously took this precaution, but he didn't expect to encounter the dog hole for the second time.
   But this time, under the enhanced illusion, the dog hole still found them in the illusion.
  This makes Anger very eager to know, how did the dog hole feel them? The answer to this question might give him a better understanding of nightmare art. Even if it doesn't work, at least it can make up for the shortcomings of illusion.
  It can be said that no matter what the answer is, it is an essential improvement to Angel.
  If it were not for the leader of this expedition, Angel might have gone to study the dog hole now. However, this matter is not in a hurry, as long as the underground maze is still there, he believes that he will encounter the dog hole again...
  Even if you can’t meet it in reality, isn’t there still a nightmare world?
  ……
  Angel suppressed his eager thoughts, took a deep breath, and regained his role as a "reliable leader".
  "Don't worry about the dog hole for the time being. Our goal this time is not a dog hole."
"Go ahead, if you don't go the wrong way, it shouldn't be too far away from the ladder of the suspended prison." Angel: "After all, Zhou said, that wood spirit's character is a bit intimidating, it really runs here. , And will not run too far."
  Because the monsters in the stinking ditch are terrible than the witches above.
  Even if the wood spirit can rely on the talent of "playing dead" and pretending to be a dead thing for several years, it will not be discovered by the monster, but Angel believes that even so, it is basically impossible to stay in the stinking ditch for too long.
  This is full of darkness, filth, foulness, and unbearable odors. Even the energy life like Su Ling has to return to the purification field, let alone the wood spirit, which is born with a "pure aura"?
   "The reason is this, but the premise is that we really didn't go the wrong way." Dorks muttered beside him.
  Angel didn't care about Dox, he didn't go the wrong way, and he would know if he went a little further. If there are a lot of traces of monsters nearby, it can basically be confirmed that it is the wrong way. vice versa.
  Restart on the road.
   But this time, the atmosphere was much silent.
  Until Anger projected a familiar pattern onto the light screen, the stagnant atmosphere began to dissolve in the doubt.
  This pattern is slightly broken, and even the color is almost lost, but the outline can still be seen.
  A black hollow circle, divided into two halves by a diagonal line, and in each of these two semicircles, there is a silhouette of a silhouetted figure.
  I can’t see the specific faces clearly, but we can know that in the left half circle are men with hats, and in the right half circle are women with long hair.
  If it is the first time to see this pattern, everyone will definitely be confused. However, not long ago, they had seen exactly the same pattern, and the pattern was still complete and clear.
   "This is... the pattern of the Demon God of Mirror?" Dorks frowned, "Where did you find it?"
  Angel pointed in a direction first, but because the outside was dark and dirty, everyone did not explore their mental power. Therefore, in the end, Angel still directly used the phantom light screen to clearly simulate the place where the pattern was found.
  The first picture that appeared was a dilapidated mottled wall, which was normal in a stinking ditch, and it was basically corroded by dark and dirty air. And in the middle of the wall, there was a raised platform on which lay a thin, waxy corpse. And the dry skin on the surface of this corpse was engraved with the pattern of the Demon God of Mirror.
  "Is this a wax seal?" Earl Black questioned.
  Angel nodded: "Well, the wax used for the wax seal after death is quite high. Judging from the pattern on his body, the identity of this wax corpse may be one of the Demon Cultists of the year."
  Dox wondered: "If this is the case, then this is a wax corpse that is close to ten thousand years old?"
  Angel: "Because the grade of wax is very good, it cannot be ruled out that it can be waxed for ten thousand years. But for the specific situation, I have not directly touched the wax corpse, and I still can't make an accurate judgment."
   After a pause, Angel asked: "Do you want to go over and have a look?"
  Way: "Is there... in danger?"
Angel shook his head: "I don't know, but the message from the Earle fan said that no living thing was sensed. However, the location of the corpse is quite strange. The high platform protruding in the middle of the wall... It seems that it is specially protruding to present this wax corpse."
  Because the location of the wax corpse is a bit strange, Angel did not lead the crowd directly, but first simulated it with an illusion and listened to the opinions of the crowd.
  "Since there are weird places, then don't go? Anyway, I have already seen the corpse, knowing that he may be a disciple of the Demon God of Mirror, it's almost the same." Waye said timidly.
  Angel did not immediately express his opinion, but looked at other people, to be precise, at Docks and Black Earl.
  Docks rarely commented, but after a moment of silence, Earl Black said:
Let’s take a look. My previous inspiration has not changed. At least there is no danger here that can threaten us.

  After speaking, Earl Black knocked on Angel's shoulder with a slate, as if to beckon him to come forward.
   However, Angel was very clear in his heart. Earl Hei was not only urging him to come forward, but also hinted that there is indeed no danger here.
  As for why Earl Black is so determined, guessing, and prophecy?
  Angel does not matter whether the previous prophecy is still working, or Black Earl has released another prophecy. Since Black Earl said there is no danger, it does not matter if you go and have a look.
  Earl Black said, the previously timid Wye could only change his words, and Angel also intentionally passed by, and the number of people who agreed was already more than half. Seeing that the general situation has changed, Dox and Kael can only nod their heads and agree to the proposal.
The location of the wax corpse is actually not far from them, it's only 30 meters away, but because it is close to the wall, and the bottom of the wall is a sewage ditch, so even if Angel has stacked two layers of purification force field, it can vaguely smell the outside Smell.
Although it is possible to stack the third layer to purify the force field, this may cause the light-dark conversion illusion on the outer wall to collapse. In the end, Angel found a way to center, so that Su Ling would drive all the smells that penetrated to the end, and then Isolate a small space through the wind barrier.
  Because the smell is not very strong, Su Ling did not strike.
  This made everyone...or, in other words, Wye and Earl Black, both let out a long sigh of relief.
  There is no odor interference, and Anger has increased the depth of the illusion, which allows everyone to directly use their mental power to investigate the wax corpse.
After a while, Anger lowered the depth of the illusion again, while maintaining the height, but also to leave room for the rapid spirit behind, which made Anger a little worried, and the Earl fans as the main body could not bear it. Therefore, after seeing everyone's observations were almost the same, he shrank the illusion.
  After shrinking the illusion, Angel was about to ask everyone's findings, but before he could ask, Earl Hei took the lead.
"It is basically certain that the wax corpse was ten thousand years ago, and it should have reached the realm of a formal wizard before death. The wax seal was made by other people after death, perhaps other demon cultists. The pattern on his body was there before his death. So he is undoubtedly a Demon Cultist." Black Earl paused: "Other than that, there is no other discovery."
  Angel looked at the others, including Docks, and basically shook his head. The information they found either overlapped with Earl Black, or there was no information at all.
After confirming that no one else had discovered anything, Angel said, "I did not focus on the wax corpse, but was observing the protruding platform. I thought that the platform was the original on the wall. Yes, because the magic pattern on it is smooth with other magic patterns around it."
"But after careful observation, I noticed that the magic pattern on the platform, the blood ink used, is slightly different from other magic patterns. The color is not darker, but darker gray. At this point, if Lord Black had just used it With the sense of smell, you should be able to smell the difference in the taste of blood and ink."
  Earl Black didn't say a word. He didn't use the sense of smell just now. The main reason was that his sense of smell was too sensitive. Even if Su Ling dissipated the infiltrated smell to one side, he could still smell it clearly as long as he clocked in on the smell.
  "Through the difference in blood and ink, I can be sure that this platform is not native. It was built by a latecomer, and the other party also knows magic patterns very well."
  Dox was suspicious on his face: "Who would be so boring to build a platform to put corpses on purpose?"
  Angel: "I didn't say that the purpose of building the platform is to put corpses. However, your guess is highly likely to be correct."
  "As for why a high-altitude platform was built, perhaps it was because the identity of the corpse was familiar to the other party, and couldn't bear to see him exposed to the ground, eroded by dirt, and eaten by monsters."
  Dokes: "I have the intention of building a platform, why don't you leave with the corpse?"
  Angel shrugged: "I don't know about this. Perhaps, the existence of the construction platform may not leave the underground maze."
  Docks keenly caught that Anger did not mention that the builder was a "person" this time, but that the construction platform "existed", and directly said that the other party might not have left.
This is hardly an allusion, but a clear indication that the building platform is most likely an old monster who knows alchemy and can cruise around the underground labyrinth, and who often comes to the Ladder of the Suspended Hell, who has lived for thousands of years. ?
  Dox: "So, the existence that built the platform knows the Demon Cultist?"
  Angel: "You don't necessarily know the Demon Cultist, but you know this person. For example, it's like you know Angel of the alchemist, but not the Angel of the illusion wizard."
  Man itself is multi-faceted, but what he shows outside is often only one side. But some people are different. They tend to play different identities in different aspects. Wax Corpse may be the latter, his identity may be a jailer of the Ladder of the Suspended Prison, or other famous people in Narok City, but at the same time, he is also a disciple of the Demon God of Mirror.
  Of course, he can’t be completely sure, maybe he is also a spy put in by other organizations in the sect of the Demon God of Mirror.
  So, you can’t just look at one side.
  The existence may have met the Demon Cultist, or he may not know the identity of the Wax Corpse Demon Cultist.
  The specific answer can only be known from the person who exists. However, what Angel hoped more was that they had better not meet that existence.
Angel: "There is no other discovery, let's leave here first. In other words, whoever of you is interested in wax corpses can also take them away together. The wax seal also seals most of the energy. Search for the energy passing away. It's not serious, it should be quite valuable."
  Angel's remarks were mainly addressed to Dox. Wai and Kael, they obviously dislike the wax corpse, and don't need to ask, they can't take a corpse with them.
  However, Dorks also rejected this tempting proposal. If Angel didn't imply that this wax corpse might be related to that existence, Docks might actually take this wax corpse away.
  But they might meet that existence face to face soon, in this case, he still won't ask for trouble.
  Since Dorks also refused, Angel did not hesitate and signaled everyone to move on.
  The Demon Cultists have all appeared here, and Angel has always guessed that the target of the Demon Cultists’ attack is the Ladder of the Overhanging Prison, so he more firmly believes that he has not taken the wrong path, and the Ladder of the Overhanging Prison should not be far away.
With enthusiasm, everyone quickly left the platform and disappeared into the darkness.
  However, Angel did not notice. Not long after everyone left, a green glow suddenly flashed across the wax corpse on the platform.
  The place where the green glow is emitted is the pattern on the skin of the wax corpse, which looks like the demon of the mirror.
  ……
  At the same time, in a hidden dark space in this underground labyrinth.
   A playful voice sounded: "Adanis, who only likes to sleep, just come and see, what did I find?"
  After a while of silence, a slightly lazy female voice sounded: "Noah's descendant, and the blood is so weak, I don't even have the qualifications to step here, and I don't know what you are excited about?"
  For so many years, many Noahs have come to explore the underground maze, but in the end, no one came here. Therefore, Adanis has no expectations of these thin-blooded descendants of Noah.
  "I want to see Naraku's return more than Noah’s descendants now."
   "Naraku's return, Naraku's return, they are all saying this. But does he really have a way to return?" The joking voice in front of him suddenly became low.
"Who knows, but those obsessives are always talking, and it's really possible." The lazy female voice paused: "Okay, I will continue to practice. Before Naraku returns, stop yelling. "
  "Are you practicing? You are just sleeping!"
   "I once met a spirit. She told me that I can practice in my dream. Anyway, I have time. I am practicing now."
   "The spirit is deceiving you."
   "It doesn't matter, even if it is cheating, I still like this kind of practice."
   "To put it bluntly, you just love to sleep a lot... After you sleep, I am lonely, and there is nothing to talk to me."
  "Shut up, I will smash you if I talk again, and I don’t want to talk to my mouth without blocking it!"
  After the words were over, after a moment of aggrieved murmur, silence was restored in the dark space.
  Long and long silence.
