Chapter 955 The Strange Ancient Castle

7days ago Fantasy Novels 14
Fors' eyes and Xiu's eyes met in mid-air, and no one spoke.

After a while, Forsy smiled dryly:

Haha, you didn't fall asleep?

Xiu frowned slightly and said:

What happened to you just now?

Nothing, haven't I told you?Whenever the full moon comes, my condition is not very good, and I will be even worse in the blood moon.Fors answered normally.

Xiu looked her up and down, pulled over the quilt and said:

I remember you had a sleeping potion?

No need for the time being, I have adjusted it.Seeing that Xiu did not ask, Forsy secretly said relievedly, "Go to sleep, go to bed, you have to get up early tomorrow and go into the forest."

Xiu didn't say anything anymore, turned over, hugged the quilt, and closed his eyes.

Not long after, her breathing became a little heavier, long and even.

Forsi stared at the ceiling in a daze, thinking for a while, and fell asleep at some point.

…………

At noon the next day, in front of a castle covered with green vines in the core area of ​​the Delaire Forest.

Fors wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a long sigh:

Finally arrived...

Hug glanced at her and said:

The hotel owner told me that it would take only two hours to get here.

They set off at less than six in the morning and spent nearly seven hours on the way.

Fors' mouth twitched:

The theoretical state and actual situation are different. We have no way out after we go, so we need to explore and develop ourselves!

Don't take out the triangular thorns, nodded and said:

You should have foreseeed this situation at the beginning, but in the end you rejected the recommendation of the hotel owner's recommendation guide.

As an ‘astrologer’, I don’t think such small things will cause trouble. Look, aren’t we already there?Moreover, the time is right now, and the resentful ghosts must be in the weakest state.Forsy, who squeezed out a smile, held Lemano's travel notes in one hand and pointed the other forward. I didn't think it was before, but now I think about it more and more confused.

What are you wondering about?Xiu also turned his attention to the abandoned castle that was almost covered with vines.

Fors looked for reasons casually:

You said, who would build the castle in the middle of the forest?And there has not been a road leading here yet...

Before she finished speaking, she really felt that it was indeed a bit strange.

Don't think about it:

Perhaps there was a road, but as the castle was abandoned and the long time washed away, all the traces of the previous were submerged.

Fors closed the hair in his ears, shook his head and said:

Then why give up?

If safety factors were taken into account when the construction was built, the unmanned forest center far away from the town would be even more dangerous. If it was a vacation, with the style of the nobles, no matter how difficult it was to repair and maintain it, they would not give up.

Jiu blurted out:

Because of haunted?

Forsy thought for a few seconds and said:

Who can afford to build large castles will not invite extraordinary people to deal with haunted incidents?

I suspect that the three major churches and the kingdom governments do not know about this castle, otherwise they would have no reason to let go of the extraordinary materials inside...

Speaking of this, she raised a possibility:

The ancient castle of the blood clan?

This extraordinary creature likes to live in places where people are rarely visited and is often associated with buildings like gloomy castles.

In addition, the information of this castle itself was also provided by the blood clan.

It's possible.Xiu first agreed, and then put forward different opinions. Will the blood clan still be afraid of ghosts?They must also be able to deal with the ancient vengeful spirits here.

It makes sense...Don't those blood clans like money and don't care about the collection of extraordinary materials?Forer thought about Mr. Moon's performance, and then denied his guess and said carefully:

Unless there are other troubles that are difficult to solve here, let high-level strong people choose to bypass them.

In this way, her actions would be more dangerous than expected.

Hugh, said:

While the sun is shining now, we will immediately make preliminary explorations.

good.Fols took Lemano's travel notes and approached the semi-collapsed castle step by step.

The two of them soon arrived at the entrance that was blocked by stones and found that the stone walls were mottled and weathered under the green vines, which seemed to have existed for a long time.

Xiu didn't rush to go in, so he called Forsi and slowly circled around the castle.

Back at the entrance, she spoke in confusion:

The style of this castle is purely defensive, and it seems that the issue of residence has not been considered at all. Moreover, I have never heard of many architectural features. It should have existed before the late Quaternary period, or even earlier.

What's the best defense here?Orcs?Tree people?They were almost extinct after the catastrophe. Haha, this is not a second or third century building, right?Fors responded casually.

She observed the terrain, took Xiu away from the entrance, came to a fairly intact wall next to her, stretched out her palm and pressed it on.

Although she lacks experience in fighting with people, she is quite skilled in various matters before the battle.

With the illusory light and shadow in front of you, Fors and Xiu Yi entered the abandoned castle.

The first thing that caught their eye was: the collapsed stairs, the overlapping wreckage of superstructures, the pure sunshine shining from the high place, and the ground with only bricks, stones, rotten wood, and no beasts, bird droppings and various green weeds.

The sound of the whimpering wind blew, even at noon, with a cold feeling that penetrated into the bone marrow.

Fors opened his spiritual vision and looked around slowly, unable to see any spiritual creatures.

However, she noticed that there was a fairly intact stone staircase to the right of the broken walls.

This step has many mottled marks, extending downwards, not knowing where it leads.

Go and take a look?Fors glanced at him and made his own suggestions.

When she thought that other parts of the castle could be seen clearly at a glance, or the collapsed objects were layered. If you were to carefully investigate, it would take a considerable time. Therefore, it would be better to roughly explore the overall pattern first, and you would have a little confidence in your heart.

Xiu looked around and nodded slightly:

The cold wind is gathering underground... I suspect that all the resentful ghosts here are hiding in the place where the stairs lead.

Um.Fors walked carefully to the mottled stone staircase, and walked down step by step along the steps with a lot of gravel.

The staircase is quite narrow and can only be accessed by one person, and it is the kind of circling deeper after another. When he walks, Fors is a little nervous.

Da, da, da, as the footsteps of the two men echoed deeper and deeper, the light inside the stairs became darker and darker.

Xiu lit up the lantern in his hand, Fors opened Lemano's travel notes, and skillfully smeared one of the pages with his fingers.

A clear and warm light leaped out of thin air, illuminating the ladder with mottled marks ahead. Fors and Xiu each tightened their nerves and walked down layer by layer.

Along the way, cold winds blew by, which made them overreact several times and almost launched an attack on the non-existent enemy.

Da, da, da, in the cramped and deserted environment, Fors finally finished the steps and stepped onto the flat and solid ground.

She wanted to say that staying in such a place would really make people crazy after a long time, but due to the quiet and silent atmosphere around her, she failed to make a sound, and was afraid of breaking this state and causing extremely bad changes.

With the help of a ball of light floating above, Fors turned his gaze ahead, trying to see clearly what the end of the ladder looked like.

This is a hall, nearly 10 meters high, covered with black floor tiles with water droplets, and there are traces of cracking and damage everywhere.

A few dozen meters away, a pair of bronze doors stood quietly on the other side of the hall where the light ball was almost unable to reach.

Up to the top, stones fell off on the left and right walls, the statue was broken, revealing the dark brown mud covered below.

The surface of the door is painted with dense symbols and strange patterns, giving people an intuitive sense of mystery and heaviness, as if something is sealing and blocking something.

Fors finally couldn't help but speak, and she said in a low voice:

Have you seen a similar gate?

Xiu next to her shook her head and said:

No.

Fors hissed:

You said, what will be behind this door?Where will it lead?

This is the purpose of building this castle?Prevent creatures behind the door from coming out?

Xiu looked around and couldn't find a mural that could provide information. He only found that the closer he got to the bronze door, the more water droplets were oozing out of the ground, and the more silver-black swords were discarded randomly.

In the Quaternary and Fifth century, murals are a widespread thing in all castles. Before the Cataclysm, it can be seen from several elves that extraordinary creatures also like to praise gods in the form of murals and record their daily lives... Combined with their own bounty hunters' experiences and experiences, he said with a slow speech.

Fors nodded slightly and said:

That's true.

This castle is even more peculiar than I thought.

At this moment, she was quite nervous and wanted to quit here directly, asking Mr. World for help.

At the Tarot Conference, after listening to Xiao Sun telling so many horror stories about ruins, when she was in a similar environment, she could not help but think too much and scare herself.

Get closer, you may find more clues.Xiu took a bold step forward, approaching the heavy door that sealed somewhere.

Fors held Lemano's travel notes tightly and hurriedly chased after him.

As she walked, a bright red suddenly appeared in her eyes.

What oozes out from the gaps in the black floor tiles is no longer water droplets, but dazzling blood!

This... Fors suddenly opened the notebook with a patina and swept the Ao beside him from the corner of his eyes.

In her sight, she had a pale face, black and green eyes, blood-red lips, dim around her body, and extremely distorted expression.
