Chapter 85 (1/2)
In this way, in Ellie's worry, time passed day by day. Three days later, Ellie sat in the room with an uneasy heart, but ya frowned and stared at the black door not far away.
”Creak.” The door was pushed open, two soul wizards followed by a dozen children.
”Come on, let's have an adult ceremony today. After today, you will become one of us and be free.”
The words of the soul wizard aroused the loud approval of several children behind him. Among them, two boys came and pulled Ellie and Keya excitedly.
These days, Ellie and Keya are waiting for kolomir every day. They hope that this grandfather can come. No matter whether the ceremony is really out of here or dead, they all want to see kolomir at last.
But they were disappointed. Coromir didn't come, but the soul wizard came first.
Ellie and Keya follow behind the soul wizard. Ellie, who is usually like a swallow, is worried and can't say a word.
This is a long dark downward staircase. On the wall of the staircase, there are fireballs hanging, which can be regarded as illuminating the whole staircase.
Under the light, the shadow under the stairs is like a beast with its mouth open, waiting for the giant beast that devours such a group of children.
Ellie and Keya didn't know how long the stairs were, but they held hands and their palms were full of sweat. Ellie clenched Keya's hand a little uncomfortable.
In the light of the fireball, Keya's face was not quite right.
Soon, in the laughter of other innocent children, the party finished the long stairs. Led by the soul wizard, they came to the dark square.
”Hoo!”. A sudden burst of flame broke the air.
Dozens of flame lamps light up at the same time, illuminating this area as bright as day. The figure of the soul wizard mysteriously disappeared.
In this light, everything is seen. But Ellie would rather not see clearly. The playful children stopped laughing and the panic on their faces suddenly came.
This is a circular square. In fact, the platform is more suitable than the square. Two deep circular gullies divide the original circular square into three areas. Inner ring, middle ring and outer ring. And in the light of the fire, these gullies can vaguely see dry bodies
At the moment, these children are standing on the inner platform. Ellie no longer thinks about how they cross these bottomless gullies to come here. Because, at the moment, she has been swallowed by despair. She knows what she will face and can no longer escape.
”Ke, Ke ya...”
Ellie's voice trembled, and she held Keya's hand tightly.
”Don't be afraid, Grandpa clomir will come and save us.”
