Chapter 799: The Ruins of the Mutation (Part II)
"I'd suggest opening any door!"
Xingshen looked at the dark suspension bridge, and then looked at the ghosts floating in the abyss, and looked down in thought.
"Any door? It's a waste, but it's a safe bet, because we don't know anything about the bridge. Charles nodded, glancing at the maiden, who had already put away the notes left by the ancient elves.
Sensing Charles' gaze, Cathy blushed slightly and said, "In the notes of Sarifer's predecessors, there is only a rough description of this bridge of revenants. ”
"Legend has it that every high-level professional of the Exorcist Organization, when they are confused, will return to the headquarters to cross this bridge of revenants, land on the other side, and enjoy the broader scenery."
"There are countless examples of success, and there are many who have fallen. Surifer said that this is a bridge that tortures the heart, goes to the depths of the heart, and only if the will is strong enough can it reach the other side...... Otherwise, the trialist will be dragged down into the abyss by the burden of the past, degenerate, demonized, and imprisoned forever under the abyss......"
Cathy bowed her head after speaking.
"Is that so?" Charles breathed a sigh of relief.
It's a trial, not a mutation.
Since there was a saying about the trial of the Revenant Bridge in ancient times, it must not be interfered with by external forces when crossing the suspension bridge, in other words, if the will is strong enough, there is no need to waste an arbitrary spell at all.
"You two use any door, I'll walk over!" Charles Road.
For the strength of Kathy and Xingshen's will, he was naturally ten thousand worried.
"Good!"
Xing Shen Shen did not recklessly, waved his staff and chanted a spell, well, with a wave of her staff, a magic door of light and shadow appeared in the void, however, when Xing Shen Shen stepped towards the magic gate, there was a sudden wave under the abyss, sizzling, it seemed that the dimensional space was distorted, and the magic door collapsed and shattered in the squeezing.
"The spell failed!" Xing Shen Shen retracted his right foot, and there was a trace of anger in his eyes, "There is a confinement enchantment in the abyss!" ”
"So...... Won't any means of dimensional movement work? Charles sighed.
Cathy looked a little distracted.
She is the main plot character of this trip, and it is impossible to leave her here. Charles tapped his head and could only walk up to the noble lady. He withdrew the flail, freed his right hand, and reached out two fingers to lift Kahy's chin slightly hard, ruffled her lowered head, and then looked at her, "Can you do it, Kathy Carroll?" ”
Charles doesn't believe that the system will give Cathy a plot kill here, no matter how you look at it, Cathy seems to be the inheritor of the exorcist organization, as long as Cathy herself is okay, the system will definitely not give her a trick lunch.
Cathy is not a trick, and Charles has an almost intuitive affirmation of this on the day he was born and meets a noble lady.
It is thanks to her that Charles is qualified to talk to the librarian, Master Haziz, and by reading enough books to gain knowledge and skill points, he has successfully obtained the basic profession of [Priest of Ogmar].
No matter what he thinks, his bond with Cathy can't be severed here.
For Charles's tough and aggressive gaze, this time Cathy did not dodge, his eyes flashed with resolute and calm colors, "Please believe me this time, Charles, believe that I can do it!" ”
Nodding. Charles let go of her and took a few steps back, the emblem in his left hand flashing with different magical lights.
A whole bunch of buffs that increase immunity hang on the status bar.
"I'll go first!" Charles threw the emblem back into the object space, grabbed the Heroic Shield, and walked up the drawbridge on his feet.
Click.
The rubble fell into the endless abyss, and there was no echo for half a day.
The suspension bridge was made of sturdy and unworn metal, and Charles walked on it, the wind whistling past the soles of his feet and above his head, and he lowered his weight, deaf to the cacophony of screams and cries that sounded in his ears, and took a steadfast and steady step.
This scene fell into the eyes of Cathy and Xingshenshen, and at first glance there was no problem, and the ghosts of the dead that they feared did not come out like a tide to attack the bridge crosser.
The mysterious abyss has not changed.
Everything is so quiet.
It's just that they didn't perceive that a pair of evil eyes imprisoned at the bottom of the abyss slowly opened their eyes.
"No danger ......"
Cathy and Xingshen looked at each other, nodded to each other, and stepped onto the bridge at the same time.
Unbeknownst to them, Charles, who was walking across the bridge with his back to them, had hollow eyes and numb expressions, as if his soul had been lost, leaving only an ownerless shell.
“…… Shire...... Shire! "In the legendary Mithril Armor, Mayvis is constantly calling.
Just now, she lost her soul connection with Charles, and according to the contract, Mavis could faintly feel that Charles's soul had been taken to an unknown place, and the distant time and space made the connection extremely weak, almost nothing.
"Damn it!"
Mavis was a little angry, and a trace of silver water spread from the Mithril armor to Charles's body, and Mavis took possession of the body without any obstacles, but she was not happy at all.
Dragons' bodies also have a lifespan limit, while souls do not, so Mayvis prefers to use the soul dwelling method to gain immortality.
"Charr" is still walking on the suspension bridge, but the soul in the shell has been replaced by a silver dragon. All Mavis can do now is to do her best to protect Charles' body and wait for his soul to return, no matter how long. This is the job of an entourage.
……
The anxious call of the silver dragon fainted in his ears, and finally disappeared.
Charles opened his eyes, and instead of a dark and terrifying abyss, an open green plain appeared in front of him!
A clear river meanders from afar, looping around a human city and into the unknown. Women gathered on the banks of the river, wooden basins filled with clothes, chatting as they washed, and crisp laughter echoed in the sky.
It was supposed to be evening, the sun was not hot overhead, and the rough and deep voices of the men came from behind him, and Charles turned to see hordes of human hunters, coming out of the riverside forest not far away, all carrying some dead prey in their hands, rabbits, deer, wild boars, and wolverines.
"That's not right! These people's clothes ...... "Charles just wanted to go up to say hello and ask for directions, but as soon as he stepped out with his right foot, the whole person was stunned.
Both women and men wore a very primitive and backward leather coat and leather trousers, the needlework was not neat, the workmanship was rough, and some even wore bone ornaments.
"I'm not going to be teleported back to the Ancient World!" Charles can only infer that.
One moment he was still on a drawbridge, the next he was in front of a small city in some ancient era, and only holographic games could do it to such an extent. Trials are like crossing over.
Charles took a deep breath and finally stepped firmly on his right foot.
"Hello!" He beckoned to a leading hunter.
This is a burly middle-aged man with a big beard, he is carrying a dead bear, and when he hears the voice, he looks over and says, "Hello, outsider, this is the city of Uther!" ”
"Uther City?" Charles's thoughts turned, and he simply took out his holy emblem and looked reverent, "I am a traveling priest from a far, far away land......" (To be continued. )
