EBE Chapter 891 Something is wrong
Chapter 891 Something is wrong
Feng Liu frowned slightly: "Something is wrong... This feeling... Could it be that someone is secretly controlling all this?" She stopped and turned to look at the mysterious girl standing next to her. "Little girl, do you know what is going on?"
The mysterious girl smiled slightly, "Maybe I have some ideas, but now is not the time to reveal them. Anyway, as long as we continue to cooperate, it will be fine. I believe that with your wisdom and strength, you will be able to help us overcome many difficulties." "Humph," the romantic young man snorted, but there was no dissatisfaction in his eyes, "In this case, I will play with you to the end, and I hope I can see something new and interesting."
After saying that, the two walked forward side by side. Alan and the other companions smiled at each other and followed closely. What secrets are hidden in the secret room? What fate will await them? Everything is still unclear...
Just as the team was passing through the door of the secret room, the whole space suddenly shook violently, cracks appeared on the wall, and there was a sound of rocks falling down overhead. "Danger! Find a place to hide!" Allen shouted, pulling his eyebrows to the side to dodge. The others also reacted quickly and barely found a temporary safe place to hide in the chaos.
When they regrouped after the aftershock, they found that not only had the structure of the chamber become more complicated, but even the originally flat road had become bumpy. "Damn it, how can we continue exploring in this situation?" Lena expressed everyone's thoughts in a somewhat frustrated tone.
At this time, Feng Liu stood up, her eyes brighter and clearer than ever before: "Don't be impatient, since it is the result of human destruction, there is always a way to solve it." Then she closed her eyes and seemed to begin to sense some special fluctuations. She stood for a long time before opening her eyes. "Come with me, I know where there may be a way out or key clues."
So everyone followed her instructions and when they arrived at the destination, they found another passage and a stone wall with symbols engraved on it.
"There are strange patterns on the wall!" Mei'er exclaimed in surprise. "Don't touch it!" Melina nervously advised, "There might be a trap."
But as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a click, and then the entire stone slab slowly moved away, revealing the inner space. There were actually some strange props and scrolls stored inside. Just as everyone was excited to check, Feng Liu quietly retreated to the corner and took off his hood, revealing his long, smooth hair and delicate face. Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned, "Are you a woman?! And a beautiful saint?" Allen said in surprise, breaking the silence.
"Well... you guys have discovered me." The other party admitted with a smile. "Then why did you dress up as a man before?" The mysterious girl asked the other party in confusion. Fengliu's expression changed slightly, and a trace of barely perceptible melancholy flashed in his eyes. "Because I have my own unspeakable secrets... But the most important thing now is that we need to interpret this information as soon as possible so that we can get out of the current predicament as soon as possible."
Allen nodded to show his understanding, and the others also returned to normal. Although they were full of doubts, they still tacitly chose to put them aside for the time being and focus on the task at hand. "Then do as she says!" Lena's cheerful voice sounded, instantly making the atmosphere much more relaxed. "Let's get to work~!" She was the first to bend down and pick up one of the books to study carefully...
Under the dim torchlight, everyone picked up the various scrolls and books displayed in the stone chamber and began to read them one by one. The atmosphere in the secret room was tense and full of curiosity to explore the unknown.
"Come and look, there is a mark here that looks like a compass!" Mei'er's surprised voice attracted everyone's attention. "There are some text instructions on it... It seems to point out the direction of the way out."
The romantic gentleman slowly approached and observed it carefully, then nodded: "Yes, it is indeed a guide map." She raised her head and looked around, "This may lead us to the next key location."
Just as everyone was immersed in the excitement of the new discovery, Allen suddenly frowned. "Wait - the vibration just now was too violent. Could it be that there is some control mechanism inside this relic? If it is not simply caused by external forces, then there is probably some kind of will behind it that controls everything."
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. Melina then agreed, "That's right. The small monsters and the earthquake phenomenon may all have the same origin. Since Feng Liu mentioned that there is an ancient power hidden here, there is no guarantee that there won't be similar threats or even worse situations again."
"So we have to be careful," Lena said firmly while holding the weapon tightly in her hand. "But there is no need to panic too much. After all, everyone has performed quite well so far, especially the extraordinary strength shown by you, which is really admirable!"
At this point, everyone present couldn't help but cast admiring glances at Feng Liu. However, the latter waved his hand slightly to reject the compliment and turned to look at the mysterious girl. "Little girl, what do you think? What is the safest option for us to take?"
Hearing this, the girl was silent for a moment before she slowly spoke: "In fact, I have been thinking about this question. From what we just discovered, it at least provides a clear direction for our next move. From now on, as long as we stay vigilant and cooperate with each other, we should be able to move forward smoothly."
Hearing this answer, several people around smiled with relief. Allen gently patted Mei'er's shoulder and said, "Don't be too nervous. As long as you follow our Saint, there will be no problem."
After saying that, he turned to the other companions and said, "Okay everyone, according to this map, we are heading northeast, please be prepared for battle!" As his voice fell, the group was ready to go and set out on the road leading to the unknown world ahead.
Moving slowly along the narrow and twisting path, no one dared to speak loudly for fear of causing unnecessary trouble. Fortunately, no new enemies harassed them along the way, which made everyone feel a little relieved. It was not until a faint light appeared in the sight ahead that everyone perked up again. "It seems that there may be a path to another space or a safe area?" Melina guessed in a low voice.
The moment they walked through the narrow corridor and stepped into the open space, they were greeted by a stunning spectacle - a magnificent and huge palace stood before them, with complex and gorgeous pictures carved on the walls, and every detail seemed to be telling a story of the past thousand years...
Everyone stood there for a long time without coming back to their senses. Until the slightly hoarse but gentle and pleasant voice of Feng Liu broke the silence: "Welcome to the legendary 'Palace of Time and Space', the real adventure has just begun..."
"The Palace of Time and Space?!" Mei'er asked in surprise, "What is hidden in it? Why is it so magnificent? And what do you mean by real adventure?"
Feng Liu sighed and said, "I only know some superficial information about this place. More secrets need to be revealed by everyone together." She looked at the people around her and continued, "But before that, I must remind everyone that any abnormal things here cannot be touched casually. Otherwise, it may lead to unpredictable consequences..."
After hearing this warning, everyone looked at each other and exchanged worried glances before regaining their composure. So after a brief discussion, they decided that Fengliu would lead the exploration first, while the others would disperse and look for useful clues.
Just as everyone was busy at their respective posts, a strange and deep voice suddenly rang out in the air: "Foolish mortals... do you think you can escape the shackles of fate like this? Soon, you will pay a heavy price for the mistakes you have made..."
This sudden statement made the atmosphere at the scene suddenly drop to freezing point. "What was that sound just now?" Lena asked seriously. "No matter what, stay alert first!" Melina responded.
Alan turned around and asked the playboy anxiously: "What was that sound just now? Did we trigger a trap?" Faced with the sudden crisis, everyone couldn't help but sweat.
Just as everyone was getting nervous because of the strange sound that suddenly appeared, the whole palace suddenly began to tremble slightly, as if some powerful being was gradually awakening. Alan immediately stood at the front of the team, tightly grasping the hilt of the sword in his hand, and looked around vigilantly. The eyes of the romantic young man also became solemn, and she quickly stepped forward a few steps to block in front of everyone.
"Everyone be careful!" Feng Liu's voice was low and powerful. "There seems to be some kind of power hidden here. We may have touched something we shouldn't touch."
At this time, a cold breath spread, and along with this breath, a black shadow gradually emerged in everyone's field of vision. It was dressed in ancient armor, had a hideous face, and emitted an ominous black light. It was obviously the one who had just spoken.
"Foolish human, how dare you break into my forbidden land." The shadow's voice was filled with indifference and arrogance. "I am the true ruler of this place - the ancient demon Karion! Since you have broken in, be prepared to face destruction!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the ancient demon Karion suddenly raised his hand and waved it. Countless black demonic energy instantly surged out from around his body, transforming into shrieking and dancing imps, rushing towards everyone.
Lena and Mei'er quickly raised their bows and staffs, and used their special skills to fight against the evil spirits. At the same time, Melina also summoned a light shield to protect the safety of her companions. However, these little ghosts were extremely fierce. Even if one batch was eliminated, more new ones would soon appear, and each one was constantly consuming their physical strength and energy.
"This is not a solution!" Allen shouted anxiously, "We must find this guy's weakness before we can successfully counterattack!"
"You're right, but the key is how to get close to its body?" Melina responded, "The ancient demon has a very strong protective barrier around it."
Just when the situation was at a stalemate, Fengliu's figure suddenly turned into a whirlwind and quickly swept past, leaving several dazzling afterimages in the void, and then accurately bypassed the obstacles and hit the target core area. Then there was a shrill scream, followed by a large amount of black smoke. It turned out that she took advantage of the opponent's distraction to break through the blockade and directly attack Karion's heart!
Although it failed to cause fatal damage, it gave others a precious opportunity to fight. Mei'er immediately took the opportunity to shoot several feather arrows containing powerful elemental energy at the head of the ancient demon; Lena followed closely behind and used a short knife to flexibly jump to avoid the opponent's counterattack and at the same time give a fatal blow; at the same time, Allen swung the Holy Light Sword to cut off the endless evil power...
Finally, with everyone's joint efforts, they succeeded in weakening the power of the ancient demon and found a way to completely defeat it: only by destroying its soul core could the battle end. So they divided the work clearly, Fengliu was responsible for restraining the opponent and looking for the opportunity to launch a decisive attack; the others were responsible for covering her actions...
After a desperate fight, with a clear whistle from Fengliu that resounded through the sky, her figure instantly disappeared and then reappeared behind the ancient demon and gathered all the spiritual power that had been condensed for a long time into an extremely powerful palm print to hit the core of its soul. With a loud rumble and dazzling white light shining throughout the venue, the ancient demon who once dominated the world finally let out a last roar unwillingly and fell down and turned into ashes...
After the threat was resolved, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground. Although they were covered in wounds, they smiled with relief as if they had survived a disaster. However, this joy was soon replaced by new doubts: What kind of challenges will be waiting for them next?
At this time, Feng Liu slowly stood up and walked to the middle of the crowd. "Well, don't let your guard down yet," she said softly, "After all, there are still many unknown risks here. But at least we are safe for the time being."
Hearing this, Mei'er couldn't help but interrupt and ask, "But what should we do now? Should we just keep going like this?"
Fengliu was silent for a while before he said softly, "Following the directions on the map should be the best option at the moment... After all, there is no turning back."
Allen wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded in agreement: "In this case, let's keep moving forward. After all, the battle just now has exhausted most of our strength. Finding a safe place to recover as soon as possible is the top priority."
Melina nodded and looked at the others, "So, does anyone have any comments?" (End of this chapter)
