Chapter 196
The pillar stood there quietly, sucking the blood from the ground silently, the dark red lines were gradually lit up, and the whole pillar began to exude a weird and evil aura.
The two sides that were still at war stopped the fight by coincidence. The people on the boat were staring at the strange pillar vigilantly, but the villagers seemed to have lost their sanity, ignoring the swords that were on their bodies, and looked at each other with blank eyes. The pillar walked over.
"What's going on here?"
"I do not know……"
"They're getting weird..."
The sailors couldn't help whispering, everyone was taken aback by this sudden change, instead of continuing to fight, they watched from afar.
Julian was tightly protected by Owen in his arms, and the protection was airtight. When the column changed strangely, he didn't want to fight, and immediately took Julian to the outside of the stone column.
However, his movements seemed to be a step slower, and there seemed to be a layer of air around the four stone pillars. If Owen hadn't reacted quickly, he would definitely hit it hard.
He sensed something was wrong, and swung his sword, the blazing sword light pierced through the air without hindrance, the air wall seemed to only stop living people.
Those villagers entered into the four stone pillars one after another like walking corpses. Their originally half-human and half-beast appearance began to gradually transform into beasts. Only a few determined people seemed to have regained their senses. , but also fell into the air wall and could not escape.
"The situation seems to be a bit wrong..." Siegfried and Eggers, who were watching from a distance, both noticed the situation on Owen's side.
They noticed that Owen was standing very close to the stone pillar with Julian in his arms, but he never escaped from the stone pillar.
"It seems to be a bit bad. Could it be that they can't get out?" Archbishop Willy's observation skills became more acute. He found that the few villages trying to escape were blocked by invisible things, and suspected that Owen was also trapped there.
Siegfried and Eggers looked at each other. They also tried to attack the air wall just now, but just like Owen's sword light, their attack landed inside the four stone pillars unscathed and injured several villagers.
As the light on the pillar became brighter, those villagers who lost their minds threw themselves to the ground one by one, picked up the scorched ringworms, and stuffed them into their mouths desperately.
Julian looked disgusted, and looked away with difficulty. He felt that he might leave a shadow on such bugs in the future.
When the demented villagers ate up the remains of the ring worm, they began to kill each other. The companions who had just fought side by side became sworn enemies in an instant, biting with their mouths and tearing them with their hands. They seemed to have forgotten The attacking skills of human beings are all based on instinct. In a short time, the remaining villagers are almost dead. The bright red blood soaked the land and provided more nutrition for the pillars.
Julian noticed that there were only four people alive in this space, besides him and Owen, there was also the village chief and another relatively unfamiliar snake man.
Although those two were still rational, they couldn't hold on for too long. Their eyes were covered with a layer of blood mist, and they would swing the butcher's knife in their hands at any time.
Julian's heart moved, and he asked loudly, "What's going on in your village?"
The village chief looked up at him, perhaps because he knew that he would not be able to survive today. The village chief said rather self-destructively: "Didn't you see how our village is doing? We are just a group of people who have to be sacrificed by others in order to survive." Poor bastard."
"Excuse me, what do you mean?"
The village head looked at Julian with a bit of relief, and he smiled wryly: "What are you talking about? Even we don't understand it very well."
He closed his eyes suddenly, raised his right hand and pierced his chest. Under Julian's shocked gaze, not only did he not die, but he grabbed a ring worm from his chest.
The ring worm seems to live in his heart, and a big hole can be clearly seen in his chest, and there is nothing inside...
"We're just a bunch of poor worms..." The village chief leaned on the pillar, looking at the sky with confused eyes. On the top of the cave, there was also a large piece of fluorescent moss, which shone brightly in the dark environment, as beautiful as a starry sky.
"What a beautiful starry sky..." The village head showed a rare smile on his always serious face, but after saying this, he violently crushed the ring worm.
"I'm human! I'm a damned human being! Let all descendants go to hell!" He roared with all his strength, and then died.
Julian and Owen looked at each other in blank dismay. The words of the village chief made them even more confused. The mystery has not been solved, but it has become more.
"Forget it, let's leave as soon as possible. My intuition tells me that this place is really dangerous." Julian glanced at the column that was about to be stained red with blood, and felt a bad feeling in his heart.
Owen also felt the same, but that invisible air wall, no matter what he did, was always firmly in front of him.
Owen's face became more and more ugly. He hadn't experienced this feeling of life hanging by a thread for a long time. The last time he was in the Land Abandoned by God, he had a similar experience when he was hunted down by a great mage of the Dark Church. a feeling of.
Julian was also working hard to find a way to break it. He suspected that the air wall might be the effect of some kind of magic circle, but he searched all around, except for the patterns on the pillars, there was no rune mark at all.
Escape, obviously cannot escape.
After confirming this point, both Julian and Owen gave up, and began to think of a way to deal with the column.
Anyone can see the weirdness of this column, and it is obvious that when the column is completely dyed red, some unpleasant things will definitely happen to them. In order to avoid such a result, the two have to do everything possible Solve the uprights in advance.
It's as if knowing that the enemy is holding back a big move, the smart person's approach is to interrupt it in advance, instead of waiting foolishly to meet the strongest impact at the end.
However, everything seems to be doing futile work. No matter what method is used, there is no way to stop the formation of the column.
In the end, the two could only hide in the corner as much as possible, and Owen stood in front of Julian to meet the final result.
When the last drop of blood was absorbed into the pillar, the pillar exploded, and the whole land began to boil.
Julian and Owen couldn't even stand firmly, so they could only rely on Owen's flying ability to barely float at a distance of about half a meter from the ground.
There was a loud bang, and with Julian's groan, the ground exploded, and a huge ring worm as thick as three people hugged emerged from the ground, and a circle of spiral sharp teeth bit Owen fiercely. past.
Siegfried and the others were almost dumbfounded. They were far away before and didn't see the ring worms in the stone basin at all. Later, although the villagers were half human and half beast, they were still half human.
But this big bug really broke through their bottom line. The most frightening thing was that they watched Owen throw out a series of red sword beams, but they landed on the big bug like tickling. No trace was left.
The moment the large ring worm broke through the ground, the blockade of the surrounding space by the four stone pillars completely disappeared. Owen relied on his agility to escape from the mouth of the ring worm several times.
"Why are you still standing there, fire!"
Just when everyone was shocked by the horror of the ring worm, Bishop Willie woke up in time and yelled at Greenton and the others.
The Crimson was equipped with a large number of cannons. In order to hunt sea beasts, Greenton even got two rare magic cannons.
Usually, there are very few opportunities for the magic cannon to leave the factory. Greenton almost forgot that there is such a device on his ship.
"Get ready, launch!" Greenton is worthy of being a senior sailor. After being reminded by Bishop Willie, he quickly recovered his responsibility. He quickly directed everyone to turn the boat around, turn sideways to face the lake shore, and then opened the muzzle. Burning shells roared out one after another, landing on the ring worm.
A few seconds later, the bow and stern of the ship flickered with magical flame effects at the same time. Immediately after two dazzling rays of light, the ring worm that was chasing Owen exploded, and the ring worm wailed in pain.
Greenton stared at the smoke caused by the falling shells. However, after the smoke passed, he was shocked to find that the ring worm was not dead. Not only was it not dead, but the injuries on his body were not very serious. Mang, these two magic cannons obviously caused some damage to him.
After the ring worm let out a scream, it turned aggressively and slid towards the Crimson.
There was a sudden turmoil on the ship. With the configuration of the Crimson, it would be okay to harass them with a few shots from a distance.
Julian on the shore was also anxious, the ring worm was so powerful, how could those people on the Crimson handle it?He hurriedly communicated with the Crimson's center in his body, and then saw the Crimson, which was quietly parked on the lake shore, move quickly, and even used snake-like evasive movements, and ran away in two or three strokes.
The ring worm didn't want to give up, and tried to go into the water to continue chasing, but at the moment it touched the water surface, Tan Ran suddenly let out a wail, and his whole body retreated again and again, never daring to approach the lake for half a step.
A flash of inspiration flashed in Julian's mind, and he suddenly remembered that he was chased by ring worms, but they were blocked by a river.
Either the river water is special, or the ringworm is afraid of water!
He communicated with the Crimson again, and then saw that the inside of the Crimson trembled for a while, and then a group of large pipes formed beside the side spin, and several sailors worked together to lift the pipes towards the shore.
Ring Worm: ... MMP!
With an order, a large amount of lake water spewed out of the thick pipe, and if it wasn't for the fast running of the ring worm, it would have almost splashed his face.
The angry ring worm kept flapping its tail, but it didn't dare to get close to the water, so it could only pour its anger on Owen, turned its head and rushed towards him.
Owen's figure flashed sharply, relying on the ring worm's inability to fly, he tried his best to avoid the ring worm's attack without touching the top of the cave.
The Crimson cooperated with Owen, so it took a cold shot to give the ring worm a little bit. After being sprayed a few times, the ring worm also became smarter and drove Owen towards the opposite direction of the lake shore.
"Do you think that although this guy is rough-skinned and thick-skinned, he...has no brains?" While Owen was hugging Julian to hide, Julian was not idle, but observed carefully, trying to find out the ringworm's origin. weakness.
"careful!"
Before Owen could answer, Julian's pupils shrank suddenly and he roared.
The ring worms chasing behind Owen suddenly disappeared, and suddenly appeared directly in front of Owen.
It had never shown the ability to teleport before, and this sudden move caused a fatal crisis to Owen!
The big mouth exuding a stench opened in front of Owen's eyes, and the sharp white teeth reflected the icy light.
Owen felt that he could smell death, he... vomit!
Vomited……
Owen Diary:
This hellish new plane is a mess... It's like a large-scale cult sacrifice scene.
No...even the sacrifice scene of hell demons is not so disgusting.
Bugs or something... vomit...
