Chapter 170 "Dead Gully" Nastrond

(The chapter is messed up, adjust it)

The configuration of the 9-ring necromancer "Astral Projection" has certain similarities with the 7-ring "Projection".

The difference is that the projection created by "Astral Projection" appears directly in the astral realm, and it is not a false phantom, but an entity composed of celestial qualities. The class level, physical attributes and various abilities are exactly the same as the body, even equipment It can be copied automatically, and the function is the same.

The caster can bring several companions to cast the "Astral Projection" together. After the spell is cast, the bodies of all participants stay in place and fall into a state of suspended animation. During this period, there is no need for food or aging.

The spirits of the caster and his companions are transferred to the astral world replica, and then they can roam in the astral world as long as they want.

The astral copy looks exactly the same as the main body, except that there is a one-foot-long silver thread dragging on the back of the head or between the shoulder blades. This "spirit thread" is closely connected to the body remaining in the material world, and the caster ends the astral travel At that time, the soul will return to the body along the silver thread and wake up, and the astral copy that has lost the soul will disintegrate and dissipate on its own.

As long as this silver thread is not cut, even if the astral world replica is destroyed, the traveler will not die, and the spirit will automatically escape from the replica and return to the body along the silver thread.

The silver thread looks fragile, but in fact it is difficult to cut off. Except for the 8-ring "Spiritual Confinement", the 9th-ring "Spirit-Binding" and the 9th-ring "Splitting", in Qiao'an's impression, there seems to be only Gisyan Jiren's special weapon "Silver Blade" can cut off the line of soul and indirectly kill the body of the astral wanderer.

The astral replicas of the caster and his travel companions can also go to other planes through the "Colorful Vortex (a kind of natural portal in the astral world.

When the replica leaves the star realm and steps on other planes, the body will teleport back along the silver line to replace the astral replica and re-integrate with the soul.

After the fusion of the body and soul, the silver thread will automatically disappear, which is equivalent to completing a "transportation from another world".

In general, the main purpose of "Astral Projection" is for astral travel, and it can also provide a certain degree of security for astral travellers-it doesn't matter if the copy dies anyway, it is equivalent to an extra life.

If you use this spell to travel to a plane outside the astral world, it’s actually not as convenient as "Transportation from Other Worlds", not to mention that every time you cast "Astral Projection", it consumes expensive casting materials-including red worth 1,000 gold coins. Zircon, and several silver rods.

Qiao An copied the "Astral Projection" onto the spell book, put away the pen and book, and greeted his companions to continue on the road.

Joan, Clark, and Gayna activated the magic "Soaring into the Sky" attached to the "Hull Boots" and lifted off one after another.

"Iceland Spirit Wolf" Sharon shared the magic effect with her paladin master, and flew with Hilde.

Following the guidance of "Hull Boots", the four men and one wolf flew in the wind on the eternal night sky of "Heim Underworld", flying for three hours until a wide ravine appeared in front of them.

Qiao An looked down in the sky and found that this gully was oval, like the same arms, encircling the core area of ​​the "Hem Underworld", and no matter which direction outsiders moved forward, they had to cross this abyss-like gully.

Qiao An also observed that the ravine extended to the periphery with many radial cracks, connected with the Gower River, and led the Styx water into the ravine, forming a natural "moat".

Slightly lowering the flight altitude, Qiao An took out the "remote mirror" to investigate the situation in the gully, and when he looked at it, his scalp was numb!

In the deep ditch of stagnant water, you can see tens of thousands of Styx viper, which is the hybrid product of Styx poisonous dragon and the underworld python, and occasionally you can see pure-blood poisonous dragons, surrounded by a group of snakes, segregating one side, just like in the ravine Lord of the nobility.

In addition to poisonous snakes and poisonous dragons, there are countless ghouls living in this huge gutter, like wriggling maggots, endlessly suffering from cold flames and biting by poisonous insects, just like a scene in hell.

"The huge gap in front is the'Dead Gully' Nastrond. It is not only the moat of the underworld, but also the prison for sinners."

Gaina explained to Joan and Clark in due course.

"The souls of the deceased crossed the Styx via the Crystal Bridge, and the next level waiting for them is this gap called Nastrond. The dead must swim across this gap and at the same time will be judged."

"All the evil spirits before death will be transformed into ghouls when they enter the water, and they will be punished by being submerged in ice water and bitten by poisonous snakes. Only innocent souls can pass the barrier safely and reach the pure land of the other side of the underworld."

"That's okay, a kind person like me should be able to pass the test safely." Clark patted his chest, thankful.

The Winter Witch gave him a mocking look: "Let’s not say whether your evaluation of yourself is reliable or not, even if you are the number one good person in the world, as long as you step into the'Dead Gully', the breath of life exuding from your body will immediately It will attract countless venomous snakes, poisonous dragons, and ghouls. They don't care if you are a good person or a bad person. They will only gnaw you into a dead person!"

"Uh... this place is too unfriendly to living people!" The frost giant wiped away his cold sweat.

"Nonsense! Nastrund is simply not where the living should come!" Gayna said gruffly.

"Can we fly directly over this gap?" Clark was lucky.

Qiao An gently shook his head, looking at the gloomy sky above the gully.

Under the observation of "True Knowledge", the undead has faded away from the invisible camouflage, and many shadows are faintly visible in the air. There are countless ones looking at it, and you can feel the cold and terrifying aura from a long distance.

Most of the monsters in the sky are incorporeal undead creatures, and there are some huge triangular shadows, like huge manta rays hovering in the night sky.

Qiao An couldn't see what monster it was, but his instinct told him that it was definitely more dangerous than ghosts!

"Silly big guy, look at those boots on your feet. They have answered your question." Hilde pointed at the feet of the frost giant.

The navigation function of "Hull Boots" confirmed Qiao'an's intuition. The luminous beacon that originally pointed to the sky suddenly turned down and pointed to a black rectangular open-top ferry boat moored on the bank of the ravine.

It can be seen that crossing the water by boat is the best shortcut to cross the "Dead Gully".

...

Allusion: "The Gully of Dead" Nastrund (Nastrond)

Nastrund (Nastrond) is a region located in the "Heim Underworld", which means "Dead Gully".

It is said that a person who committed a lot of evil in his lifetime will be sent here after death and be punished by being submerged in ice water and bitten by a poisonous snake.
