Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

Azik grabbed Hobert's shoulders: "Recall the location of the ruins in your mind."

"Wait a minute!" Hobert took out a 2 suler note and put it on the car seat, and then said to the driver: "I want to get off."

Otherwise, the driver of the taxi will definitely think that he has seen a ghost! Good passengers will be gone if they say no.

When the coachman heard Hobert's voice, he immediately stopped the carriage on the street. He waited for a long time without waiting for the guest to get off: "Sir, sir?"

He came to the back and took a look. Is there anyone else in the carriage?

Fortunately, there was 2 suler fare in the carriage, which he didn't notice because he was a guest getting off the bus, and didn't think about it.

At this time, the coachman's guest, Mr. Hobert, was being held by Azik's shoulders and traveling in the spirit world.

There is a gorgeous colorful mist in the spirit world, and there are spirit world creatures of various shapes. What is most surprising to Hobert is that his feet are not standing on the ground, but he and Azik are in mid-air.

To be precise, there is no concept of "ground" in the spirit world. There is no concept of up, down, left, or even distance. Although they seemed to be standing still, Hobert knew that if they left the spirit world at this time, They had already moved far away from where they were when they entered the spiritual world.

Before entering the spirit world, Azik told Hobert not to look at the creatures in the spirit world.

Hobert lowered his head slightly and only used his peripheral vision to observe everything around him.

Suddenly Hobert saw a simple black coffin in a black mist.

It stood there and seemed to notice Hobert. Although there were no eyes on the coffin, Hobert was aware that the other person was staring at him closely.

Hobert looked away, not daring to "look" at the other person.

At this moment, everything around him seemed to be splashed with paint and began to become abstract and unreal.

These abstract and unreal brilliance gradually "solidified" and Hobert saw them transform into trees and rocks, weeds and mounds of earth.

At this time, they were already on the hillside outside Backlund, and from here they could see the camp at the foot of the mountain.

That was the camp of the Jacob mercenary group. At this time, they had already transported all the valuable antiques away, but there were still a dozen people finishing the work.

They first filled in the entrance to the ruins, and then dismantled the camp.

Azik asked: "Is this here?"

"Yes." Hobert said, "Probably directly below."

Then Hobert felt his vision blur, and his vision was quickly covered by darkness. They had arrived at the ruins.

Hobert smiled bitterly: Do all the big guys like to be lazy so much? If you can go to the spiritual world, you will not follow the right path.

Hobert was prepared in advance, turned on his flashlight, and led the way.

Yes, Backlund already has a flashlight at this moment. The reason why it is called a "flashlight" rather than a flashlight is because the shape of the flashlight is a bit like a desk lamp in his hand.

Its main structure is a large battery, in the middle is a round light that shines forward, and at the top is the handle. The overall structure is a rectangular parallelepiped, so it cannot be called a flashlight "light".

There is no civilian version of the flashlight yet. Hobert bought the military version from the mercenary club. It is very heavy and can not only provide lighting, but can also be used as a weapon. At least it is much easier to use than bricks.

For Hobert, this "high-tech" product has two flaws. The first flaw is that the light bulbs have to be replaced frequently. Light bulbs have also been invented, but the quality is very poor. Most light bulbs can only work for hundreds of years. hours, so change it frequently.

The second drawback is that it costs money, because the light bulbs are not only of poor quality, but also very expensive.

But when Hobert saw the flashlight, he still bought one, uh, no, one.

Because the flashlight provides much better vision in the dark than an oil lamp, is windproof and rainproof, and can also protect yourself, it is much more versatile than an oil lamp.

Of course, Hobert thought that after he became a high-sequence person, his body would undergo qualitative changes, and he would be able to see things around him clearly in the dark without a lamp, but that was a story later.

Carrying the flashlight he bought on impulse, Hobert came to the noble courtyard in the ruins and pointed out the entrance to the underground structure to Azik.

"This seal is very delicately made." Azik smiled. As he spoke, he raised his hand, and the seal that Dophis spent a lot of effort on was broken with a tap.

Then the two men opened the stone slab, Azik in front and Hobert in the back, and entered the underground structure of the ruins.

Azik explained: "When I ask you to close your eyes later, you must close your eyes immediately."

The horrifying memory in Hobert's heart was awakened again, and he swallowed: "Okay!"

After walking along the underground corridor for more than twenty minutes, Azik suddenly stopped and said, "I know what's going on. This door hides itself most of the time, and it keeps changing its position."

After saying this, he took out a small dagger, cut his finger open, squeezed out a drop or two of blood, and spread it evenly on the stone wall.

The stone wall immediately became illusory, with the shape of a door appearing and emitting a light that made people feel cold all over.

Azik said: "Close your eyes!"

Hobert immediately closed his eyes, and the feeling of fear and oppression that swept through his body reappeared.

But the huge feeling of oppression only lasted for more than ten seconds, and Mr. Azik said: "Okay, you can open your eyes now."

Is this enough?

Although he had doubts in his heart, Hobert still trusted Mr. Azik. When he opened his eyes, he first saw a strange door in front of him.

Standing inside the door was a creature that was as tall as a person, with the head of a dog and the body of a dog. It closed its eyes tightly and was covered in black hair. The expression on its face was very kind and reassuring.

Just seeing this face brings peace to one's soul.

This image is very similar to the image of Anubis, the Egyptian god of death, in Hobert's memory.

"This is the black dog spirit beast," Azik explained: "Seeing it reminded me of some knowledge. It is said that it is the guardian of the ancient Death God, and its heart is one of the main materials of the Death Path Sequence 3.

“However, the state of this black dog spirit beast is very strange. First of all, it has the extraordinary characteristics of the complete Sequence 3 ‘Ferryman’ in its body, and it is already dead.

"Well, in other words, no one can completely kill him because it is already dead."

Azik paused and then said: "But I can use the power of the underworld to extract its extraordinary characteristics. It will no longer have terrifying power, and will only retain this state of death that does not rot and can move slowly and freely." state.

"But my spirituality tells me that if I borrow a lot of power from the underworld here, it will cause very terrible consequences."

Hobert asked: "Is this a zombie or a living corpse?"

"In a different state, he will remain incorruptible until the end of time." Azik said: "I suspect it has been blessed by the ancient God of Death."
