Chapter 296 (1/1)
Tracking a bunch of snakeheads in a dark underground tunnel? The difficulty of this operation is as difficult as tracking a shark in the deep sea. Even the best tracker in the surface world can do very little in this narrow darkness, not to mention that every step of the tracking should be careful that the snake head finds himself. But Karus doesn't belong to the surface. Strictly speaking, the blood flowing on the devil doesn't belong to the world at all, which allows him to do many things beyond the limits of ordinary people.
The surface of the demon who is integrated with the darkness will not emit heat, and his eyes will not reflect any light. Unless someone happens to come to Karus and meet the darkness of the entity, even the creatures living in the deep underground will not be able to detect the existence of the demons. This deadly stalker stalks behind the prey, observing the behavior of these strange creatures, and marking his position on the underground map in his brain.
Like Carus, the snakeheads in front were obviously familiar with the sewers the dwarves had built, and they walked at full speed through the dazzling corridors at all corners without hesitation. This makes the mob more sure that the maze prison the old friend is involved in may have lost its function. But before Carus could think about it, the sound of heavy footfalls had already started from the depths of the passage. The giant that the curse crow once saw appeared in front of the snake head people.
This kind of giant recognized by demons is called cave giant, which crouches in front of snake heads. It can exist in the depths of many mountains. Because of their living environment, they are often mistaken for the big ones among cave dwellers, but in fact, these hairy humanoid creatures are real giants. These people are peaceful and don't like fighting, but they are not kind. They are mentally retarded and often live together in groups. Carus was curious how the cave giant got here. He didn't hear that big Duke liehammer kept a pet underground.
However, no matter how the mob guessed, it was not the first time that the giant and the serpentine met. The giant, who almost occupied the whole tunnel, knelt down on the ground like a child in front of his parents. His hands were on the ground, and he put his big face in front of the snake heads. The demon descendant saw a bruised wound on the giant's forehead. The big guy was making an aggrieved voice like the head of a snake. What people said was related to the origin of the wound from the point of his pointing.
The impatient expression on the faces of the serpents shows that these guys don't care about the giant's accusations. In fact, Karus also doubts whether these snake heads can hear the giant's hum. However, it also reminded the demon descendant that he had to think about what could harm the giant in this environment. He had a premonition that it had something to do with the wizard in the gray robe.
Things have become interesting. Karus has a ferocious smile. He doesn't believe that the Raven will be solved by a giant. The status of the grey tower in the dark world means that the caster with his name will never die in this ridiculous corner. I don't know if saving the wizard's life can make him forgive himself for leaving without saying goodbye. The demons thought, following the snake heads, they drove the giant to go ahead.
The group did not walk long before they came to the entrance of the metal church. The giant pointed to the blood on the wall of the adjacent corridor, pointed to his wound, and mumbled something. The serpents ignored their servants completely, and the stone spear armed soldiers began to inspect the nearby walls, trying to find traces beyond the giant's blood. As defenders, they were not entitled to know how to enter the church. But now the priests who went to worship did not return, so that the soldiers did not care so much.
Unlike the blind snakeheads, the mob hiding on the roof was aware of something, a circular groove, which, though well hidden in the intricate walls, had found the place of the metal basket. Since there is no trace of the curse crow here, the demon descendants guess that the spell master should have successfully activated the mechanism and entered the dark room on the roof. Now he just needs to hide here and wait for the crow to help him when he leaves the dark room. I hope the wizard doesn't stay there too long.
The truth is, the demons didn't wait long, and the heavy breath from the church came through the metal walls. Rao, with the tenacious spirit of Carus, could not restrain his fear from the depths of his soul when he heard the breath. As for the snakeheads and giants, they are now like ants at human feet, shivering on the ground, unable to even raise their heads to find the source of breathing sound.
The smile on the corner of the devil's mouth disappeared. Now he wanted to leave everything underground and rush back to the surface. He grabbed the dwarf's collar and asked him what he had buried in the ground of his city with the biggest voice he could make. Carus found that he really could not understand the confidence of Lord hammer when the warning came. Whether this guy could understand how terrible it was to be able to breathe like this. In his long life of adventure, nothing could have caused him such a fear.
”Creak At this time, a snake head man accidentally stepped on the mechanism on the ground in panic. With the sound of the machine in the wall, the heavy metal basket slowly fell down from the top of the cave. At the same time, an indescribable aura of terror escaped from the metal church along the gap in the roof. The snakeheads, sensing the deadly breath, began to chant something in their language, and the demons speculated that it should be some kind of prayer.The language of these snakeheads was obscure and deep, and Carus could not compare it with any language he knew. However, in this continuous prayer, the word is repeatedly mentioned, and different from the pronunciation of other prayers, this word should be transliterated directly from other languages. The demons tried to get rid of the noise of the serpent's tongue, and finally determined the meaning of the word in ancient dwarf language, mother of the crypt.
Mother of the crypt? What does that mean, some kind of name of a God's mansion? Carus guessed that at this time, a small dark shadow rushed out along the opening of the hanging basket. This small dark shadow just passed by the devil. Carus did not want to reach out and grab the shadow. What he caught was a raven, a raven with bleeding eyes.
