Annan hadn't seen it for a long time, and his system took the initiative to jump out.

In addition to using [Nightmare Shards]...... That is, when the transcendent left after his death and the key that can open the path to the nightmare, and when Annan obtained the [Truth Manifestation] prompt when he obtained the fragment of the heavenly chariot, he basically never saw the system actively jump out when he was outside the nightmare.

And it's such a disturbing bright red font.

Annan frowned slightly, unleashing his perceptual realm as far as he could, slowing down the stairs.

Fragmented images kept appearing in front of them...... If you are distracted, you may have a chance that your foot will slip and fall.

"Be careful, don't trip. Go slower! ”

Annan reached out and grabbed the hand handed over by Zoya, using the scepter as a crutch, and slowly descended in the lightless companions, reminding in a loud voice: "I feel that the frequency of illusions has increased significantly-"

He hears his own voice, which seems to be indistinguishable from the real voice.

But when others listened to Annan's voice, they found that they couldn't hear it clearly.

In the special environment of approaching the Spell Cellar, his voice was stretched extremely long and became extremely distorted. It's like a radio with a bad signal, or a record with a slider.

"Actually...... Panic...... Because of ......"

Jacob's voice, which became more and more faint and fragmented, rang in everyone's ears. But this time it wasn't a problem of inaudible incomprehension—like a call coming from a phone near the stereo, a very high-pitched and loud whistling sound completely drowned out Jacob's voice.

They even felt an uncomfortable buzzing sensation in their ears.

Players are feeling a little familiar...... It's like the discomfort that comes to your ears when an airplane takes off.

- The next moment, all the sounds they could make were completely gone.

The sound of talking, the footsteps of walking, and the sound of Annanton's scepter all disappeared in an instant—replaced by a low, thin white noise.

Annan's eyes once again appeared in front of a line of prompts:

[-Warning, you have entered the Black Rock Crypt]

Then, Annan felt a bite under his feet—as if the ground under his feet had suddenly disappeared, and the whole person kept falling downward.

Annan felt that Zhuoya, who was falling synchronously with him, also clenched his hand tightly for a moment.

…… So you're scared, too.

The corners of Annan's mouth lifted slightly.

Another half minute passed, and he didn't feel the touch of touching the ground.

At this height, if you hit the ground, you will definitely fall to your death. Annan even felt that Zhuoya's palms were oozing sweat and trembling slightly.

In order to comfort the elder, Annan did not hesitate, shook it back hard, and shook it gently to signal her to settle down.

His firmness and calm heart seem to be transmitted to Zhuoya through the temperature of his palm. She stopped trembling almost immediately, and her grip on Annan's hand was not as hard.

But in this abyss, which was silent and kept falling, Annan had no fear.

- The reason is simple.

Because of this sense of falling...... How to put it, it's a bit fake.

A person's center of gravity cannot be in the middle, especially if the surface of their feet is not touching the ground and they cannot use force to adjust their posture. A split second fall was enough, but it had been so long that they should either fall forward or backward.

But Annan, with no taut core at all, still felt like he was falling very gently and vertically—not even the wind resistance from the constant acceleration, only a simple sense of falling. Zoya on Annan's hand is also not crooked at all...... On the contrary, because she was nervous and made some small movements, her body tilted slightly.

Zoya also seems to be quick to realize this? I gradually relaxed, and slowly adjusted my posture back.

…… That's probably why Jacob let us shake each other's hands.

Annan thought so.

Suddenly, Annan felt a slight change...... The speed at which they fall seems to be slowing down.

After that, another half or so passed.

They finally felt the touch of the ground under their feet? He stood on the ground again.

There was still a muffled hum in the air.

After a brief silence? Annan asked tentatively, "Everyone...... Can you hear me? ”

"Huh? You can hear it, you can hear it. ”

"Scared me to death? I thought I was going to fall to my death......"

"This must be the kind of slow-descending platform where the wind blows from the bottom up, huh? How could it be ...... to fall to your death?"

In the darkness, the players were the first to react.

"Can I light a fire?"

Zhuoya's throat is a little hoarse? She asked Jacob in a low voice.

What did she say to Jacob? It doesn't seem to be as unpopular as it was at the beginning...... It was probably at the beginning of Jacob's ritual of piercing the barrier that she realized that Jacob was indeed a real talent, and her attitude towards him changed much better.

“…… Yes, yes. ”

Jacob hesitated for a moment and responded, "But I'd recommend lighting without heat...... Need me to come? ”

"Not really? I'll do it anyway. ”

Zoya shook her head.

She raised her hand high and shouted, "Look at me!" ”

The next moment, her fingertips shone brightly.

Like a fire on a flint - a bright glow bloomed from Zoya's right index finger? Completely illuminate the surrounding space.

It was an idol spell called [Light of Guidance].

Shine on your fingertips or sword tips – you can maintain this light by continuously investing in the mana of order.

Can everyone who sees the light be forced to focus their attention on their own hands - in short? It's an instantaneous group taunt spell. If you forcibly don't eat ridicule, other actions will have to eat a focus on devastation, and in this way force the person who sees the light to attack himself first.

If you are in the heat of battle, you can also use this spell suddenly to try to create a momentary hole in a well-defended enemy...... Or wake up a soul-robbed teammate? It can also be used to interrupt an enemy's original attack, or to interrupt the focus action.

And now? It's a bit overkill when it's just a spell to keep the light alive...... However, with this spell, even if you encounter an enemy that suddenly attacks, you will give priority to attacking Zoya. On the contrary, it is easier for people to deal with it.

Under the light of this light, they finally saw the inner structure of the spell cellar—

- It was a stunningly magnificent structure.

They were in the middle of a circular hall that looked like a lecture hall around the center. There were many seat-like stone chips around, but there was no one on the seats.

And directly behind the "podium" is a huge pure white door with a height of twenty people.

It has no handles and no knockers.

There are no drawings on it, just carved words of elves.

At the four corners of the hall, four white columns stood like the four legs of a turtle. It is a width that requires more than five adults holding hands to hold it...... But if you listen closely, you can see that the cylinder is hollow.

It wasn't a column, it was a pipe.

But it's not so much a pipe as a monster that gets blood vessels.

This is no spectacle that the Northland Brotherhood can build. It exudes an antiquity immersed in history.

Other words......

“…… Didn't the elves here dismantle this spell cellar from the very beginning? ”

Annan's pupils shrank slightly.
