From Prisoner to Si Chen

"Finally found……"

Ms. Teresa said solemnly.

"Master Aldin's Nightmare Monument."

Her expression was extremely serious, after all, what she was facing now was the "Nightmare Monument" left by a level 5 powerhouse.

Moreover, Master Aldin Higgins has extremely profound attainments in the dual fields of soul and magic.

Therefore, the danger of the nightmare in the monument is absolutely extremely high!

"Jilan, I'll leave the rest to you first."

Ms. Teresa turned her head and spoke to Gillan in a deep voice. She paused briefly and added another reminder:

"The Mystics have no resistance to the nightmare energy. Once they come into contact, they will be dragged into it instantly... But the Kusei people are different. Because of the 'Shenxiang Brand', they have a certain ability to resist the nightmare energy, so you want to If you want to enter the nightmare in the monument, you need to actively relax your mind. "

"Understood." Gilan nodded.

This flat area at the top of the mountain is quite peaceful.

Ji Lan stepped forward under the expectant gazes of everyone, and walked straight towards the huge nightmare monument, and was overwhelmed by the scarlet nightmare aura.

"Muguer, take two steps forward."

At this time, the dwarf Renault, who was sitting on the shoulder of the strong man, spoke. My best friend said nothing and just took two steps forward obediently.

Renault took out the cleaning lamp and clicked the switch to light it up.

Warm yellow light suddenly spread through the glass cover, illuminating the surrounding area and dispelling the approaching nightmare.

"Mr. Gillan, it's still the old rules, five minutes... When the five minutes are up, I will ring the clear light to wake you up from the nightmare."

Renault said loudly.

"Ten minutes," Ji Lan said calmly without looking back. "This nightmare monument is far more difficult than before. I may need more time to fully explore the situation inside."

Renault was startled for a moment, then nodded heavily.

"Okay. Then... please be careful."

Ji Lan raised his hand and made a gesture to show understanding.

Immediately, he stopped after walking a dozen meters away.

If it is true what Ms. Teresa said, the nightmare energy floating around his body will be repelled once it gets close to him. In Jilan's heart, the dial-shaped "Shenxiang Brand" shimmered slightly, keeping him awake.

Seeing this, Gilan silently closed his eyes.

He emptied his mind, let "Shenxiang Brand" calm down, and allowed the nightmare energy to affect it.

Buzz——

Almost in an instant, the moment Gilan relaxed, his consciousness fell into a trance.

When he opened his eyes again, he found that the environment around him had changed dramatically. The original forest glade on the top of the mountain turned into a dark and damp sewer scene.

There was a nauseating stench hanging over the place, and the dim light came only from the aging and dirt-covered light bulbs above, making it difficult to see clearly.

Gilan was standing in the aisle on the right, which was barely wide enough for one person to pass through. To the left was the drainage channel, in which dirty and turbid sewage was flowing.

This is where the odor comes from.

The walls, ceiling, and floor were very damp, and while water was seeping through, the surfaces were covered with slippery and disgusting moss.

Tick ​​tock tick…

A slight dripping sound came from the front of the passage, but otherwise it was silent.

Jilan scanned the surrounding environment and walked forward. At the same time, the "Apocalypse Dream" was stimulated.

A colorful beam of light fell from the sky, fell on him, and turned into a halo of light behind his head.

Guillen suddenly received guidance.

‘The weakness of the nightmare in this monument is in front. ’

He remained cautious and quickened his pace.

The scene of Level 5 Kuze's Nightmare Monument was obviously larger. After Jilan walked forward for thousands of meters, the environment of the sewer still did not change significantly.

But he was surprised to find some solid wood bookshelves on both sides of the aisle. These brown bookshelves are crudely made and made of stiff wood, with many seemingly ancient books placed on them.

The books are densely packed and disorganized, and they seem to have been piled here haphazardly.

Ji Lan walked over, picked up a book, and opened it.

The pages are yellowed and the edges are worn, showing signs of age. The writing on it was blurry, as if the ink had stained due to moisture.

He frowned slightly, closed the book, and changed it to another one. But the result was still the same. The ink stains were so smudged that it was impossible to see what was written on them.

Gillan flipped through several books one after another, and finally saw several pages of clear handwriting in a black-covered book:

"...The weight of the human soul is 0.46 ounces. To refine a Philosopher's Stone (Philosopher's Stone) requires 309.5 ounces of soul, which is the total soul of 673 people."

"After death, the soul will continue to stay in the earthly world for a few hours, and then disappear (smudge). No, it should go somewhere...the land of gods? It is very possible...there are a large number of spirits wandering in the 'corridor' area , most likely those living people who died in this world.”

"Speculation: The devil may have transformed from a spirit body (lack of evidence). But there is a black cemetery in the 'corridor', and there are many devils in it... (record of personal experience of visiting the Land of God)"

Wow.

Turning back further, the pages of the book were already black and sloppy, with ink stains soaking into the mess.

Gillan closed the book with some regret and put it back.

He looked at the books on the wall and couldn't help guessing that these were probably the memories of Master Aldin Higgins before his death, recorded and reflected in the nightmare of this monument in the form of obsession.

Jilan quickly searched the bookshelf for a while, but the contents of most of the books were vague.

He finally found another book with barely recognizable words, but on a few pages, there were some strange words:

"I am not going to live long..."

"I often lament my ignorance and the vast knowledge that I have not been able to see... It's a pity that I have been wandering in the 5th level of the "Fire Sword Road" for nearly half a century, but I have not been able to touch the truth at the end."

"It's a pity... It's a pity."

"..."

"Right now, it seems that an unprecedented natural disaster is coming... The island where I live in seclusion is not an island (indistinct)... This inland sea of ​​blood is not an ocean (scribbled)."

"Miasma has existed since ancient times, but no one has ever known its source... Perhaps it is under my feet."

"Its outbreak is extremely Suddenly, as if someone was guiding me... For some reason, I thought of an ancient secret cult, that abominable group full of sulfur. "

"It's too late, I must act immediately. I will use my dying and aging body to slow down the eruption."

"..."

"Pala, Sadeh, President Dode, if I can survive, you can still find me in the Imperial Library of Mussiti."

"I will sit in the middle of a pile of books, looking out the window from time to time, looking at the noisy world below, and feel pity for a group of fools who only know how to pursue material or power."

"The truth... is out of reach."

"How I wish I could understand the mystery of the truth, so that I can die without regrets."

"What a pity."

Pah.

Gilan frowned slightly and closed the book.

The content on it looks like a diary, which was left by Master Aldin before his death.

'Is there something wrong with this island or even the blood sea? The source of the miasma... is it really from under the volcano?'

Gilan guessed secretly.

After reading the scattered contents in the book, he couldn't help but feel that Aldine Higgins was indeed an amazing master. After discovering the abnormality of the island, he was willing to take risks.

'We can't waste time here anymore. We have to find the weakness quickly and destroy it. '

Gilan said secretly.

He stopped looking through the bookcase and ran forward.

But not long after, the ground began to shake.

Rumble...

Rumble!

The violent sound became louder and louder.

Gilan stopped and looked closely, and his pupils shrank.

I saw a steel chariot that could almost completely block the sewer space, coming quickly from the front!

Rumble! !

The chariot was black all over, exuding a metallic luster, and the surface was covered with various patterns and reliefs. On the two huge wheels on the left and right that were taller than a person, a skeleton was embedded, the bearings overlapped with the skeleton heart, and a half-meter-long hideous three-edged spike protruded from the outside.

Squeaky! !

As the chariot sped away, two triangular spikes scratched the walls on both sides of the sewer, creating dazzling sparks and plowing two deep marks.

The sewage in the drainage ditch was rolled over, splashing water.

On the chariot, a hunched, thin, white-haired old man in an old-fashioned suit was writing something at his desk without raising his head.

On his back, there was a huge rotten wooden wheel hub, which was engraved with dense ancient Greek characters and some symbols pointing to the "Mother of Sorrow" in August.

This wheel hub was like a clockwork, making a clicking sound as it turned, and the old man kept writing, muttering:

"Can't stop, can't stop, can't stop..."

Jilan's sight was immediately attracted by the wheel hub behind the old man.

Under the guidance of the "Apocalypse Dream", he instantly determined that the core weakness of the nightmare in this monument was the huge clicking wheel hub!

‘Zhelun…’

Jilan silently said the name of the original substance in his heart.

The chariot approached quickly, with no intention of stopping. The bookshelves along the way were easily destroyed, and wood chips and paper pieces flew across the road.

It seemed that it was going to crush Jilan as well!

Swish——

Jilan made a prompt decision and jumped up directly.

The chariot was like a wall of knife nets pressing down, but there was only a gap where the old man was.

Snap!

At the moment when the two sides crossed, Jilan fell on the chariot and stood in front of the white-haired old man who was writing at the desk.

It was at this time that he saw clearly that the old man only had a human form in the upper half of his body, and his lower half was integrated with the chariot!

His face was expressionless, and he was concentrating on writing repeated words on the notebook with a fountain pen:

“Can’t stop! Can’t stop! Can’t stop!”

At the same time, he had no reaction to Jilan’s appearance, and didn’t even look up at him.

The chariot was still speeding in the sewer, shaking violently.

Jilan narrowed his eyes, raised his leg and kicked the wheel behind the white-haired old man——

clang clang clang clang!

Suddenly, square solid black iron railings appeared under Jilan's feet. And these railings bent upwards and closed, forming a big ball, protecting the old man.

Bang! !

Jilan kicked the big ball with a loud noise. The whole chariot was shaken.

But there are no footprints left on the surface of this big black iron ball, which shows how hard it is!

"Shattered iron!"

Ji Lan's eyes narrowed and he kicked him again in disbelief.

This time, he used his secret fusion technique with all his strength.

The shadow of his legs flashed.

The scream of woo.

Bang! ! !

The kick hit the surface of the big ball, bursting the air, and the dust waves formed a circle of air and spread out in all directions.

However, the black iron ball only trembled violently, but it was not damaged!

Ji Lan, on the other hand, was shocked by the reaction force of the kick, and the soles of his feet were numb, accompanied by a pain that penetrated deep into his soul.

Jilan groaned.

I immediately understood that this is the soul field that Aldin is good at...

‘When attacked, will there be rebound damage to the enemy’s soul? ’

Fortunately, he was trained by the "Iron Thorn Meditation Method" every day. This kind of soul attack was what he was best at enduring.

And for this, I have to thank Master Aldin.

"Since it's so hard, I can give my destructive power a try..."

Jilan's eyes burst with fighting intent.

He grinned.

Wow——

The next second, his muscles bulged like a balloon, his body straightened up, his messy blond hair grew longer and redder, and his eyes dyed from azure to scarlet.

Suddenly, the transformation skill "Crazy Owl State" was activated.

"The Hammer of Justice."

Jilan raised his hand and took out a bronze cane, a blunt weapon more suitable for strong attacks.

After the deformation with a clicking sound, the handle turned into a ferocious hammer.

Immediately, Gilan held the hammer in both hands, exploded with his strongest strength, and slammed it down on the big ball——

"Broken!" He shouted violently.

The bronze hammer fell like thunder and hit the iron ball.

boom! ! !

With the terrifying force and the impact of the explosion, the green flames that burst out turned into dense sparks.

The chariot that was speeding suddenly came to a standstill as if it had hit an invisible wall.

The air waves were overwhelming and passed by.

At the same time, an even stronger sting of soul spread along the handle of the hammer-head staff to Jilan's body, rushed straight into his mind, and then exploded!

His originally scarlet eyes burst instantly, leaving blood and tears from the corners of his eyes.

But Jilan's expression showed no pain at all, instead he grinned an even more ferocious smile.

In the "crazy state" controlled by the mad king, the superego is suspended, and all pain and injury cannot affect his consciousness.

He can endure extraordinary pain!

In Jilan's sight, a pit was left on the surface of the big black iron ball!

"Happy!" He raised the hammer again with cruel eyes. "Come again!"

Bang! ! !

The hammer of justice fell, and the green fire exploded.

The entire chariot shook violently.

"Come again!"

"Come again!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Come again!!"

Bang bang bang bang! !

Jilan smashed the iron ball crazily, even knocking the chariot backwards.

His face was covered in blood at the moment, but he had already smashed the ball protecting the white-haired old man into a dent, deformation, and tatters.

Jilan suddenly raised his leg and kicked out again with a "broken iron".

This is his strongest attack at this stage.

Woo——

boom! ! !

The iron ball shattered under the powerful kick, revealing the old man's body as the nightmare guard underneath. He finally raised his head, his cloudy eyes showing surprise.

It seems that he did not expect that Iron Ball's defense would be forcibly broken.

The red-haired young man swung the hammer again, hitting the wooden wheel hub behind him——

"Crush it for me! Ha!!"

Bang! !

The bronze staff hammer hit hard, knocking the old man down on the iron plate of the chariot with one blow, and the wheel hub behind him broke and exploded into countless fragments.

Ji Lan's big hand reached out and grabbed the largest broken piece, and colorful light burst out, corrupting it into rotten wood residue.

"The brand of the kingdom. It originated from the soul of the long-lived Aldin Higgins. It belongs to the spiral of the divine scepter, the path of August Sichen's 'Mourning Virgin', the fifth level of essence, and the wheel."
