Wasteland Echoer

When several people slowly approached the giant door, the "Improved Everlight Flashlight" in Duck's hand flashed violently for several times and then suddenly went out. No matter how much the panicked Duck slapped it, it could not recover.

Soon, the surrounding dark smoke like the abyss suddenly rushed in, almost filling the entire space except for the giant door in front of it.

Immediately afterwards, the superimposed sound of violent falling of heavy objects and metal collision came from behind several people. They discovered that a huge door shrouded in darkness and engraved with a geometric pattern of dark blue stripes was completely blocked. The road they came from temporarily closed them in the narrow space formed by the door and the wall.

Faced with the embarrassing predicament and the black smoke that gradually rose to his ankles as he fell to the ground, Wulfya shouted:

"Come up, come to the door, it's higher here."

After several people quickly ran up the metal stairs to the small platform where the giant door was located, within a few seconds, the place where they were standing was "submerged" in black smoke. Generally speaking, Duck found that if he had run a step too late, Now the black smoke will reach their chests. He estimated that even if the smoke would not cause immediate disaster, it would have unbearable negative effects.

Seeing that the black smoke was stabilizing, Abena, who was lying in Wovya's arms, coughed a few times and said slightly weakly:

"Don't... go near the smoke."

"What are those?" Luo Nie, who was standing aside, asked curiously. Even if he didn't know anything about the smoke that suddenly appeared in the underground area of ​​the "Kuchen Ruins", the magic power in his body and the "Master of Machinery" gave him Some of his original perceptions still made him feel the strong aura of "sadness" contained in it.

"It is a type of sequential monster... Ahem, Wulfya, please put me down first and let me sit for a while." Abena explained while requesting.

"Okay, but does your wound matter?" Wulfya placed Abena firmly on the ground and sat cross-legged behind him for support, asking with concern.

"For the time being... it should be fine. After all, the 'Unintentional Man Virus' remaining in the Lost One's body is somewhat useful. If you can endure the primitive urge to eat and the madness of human nature, you can adapt to stronger food in a short period of time. 'Shang', I can feel that the wound has not continued to worsen, maybe... it is healing slowly. Speaking of those black smoke..." Abena stretched out his pale fingers and pointed to the "dark pool" that had just been formed in front of him, explaining road:

"It is a derivative of a type of sequence monster. It once spread all over the continent, but was later strangled and brutally banned by the foundation. It is one of the few sequences that was completely controlled and perfectly used by the Krusted royal family. A monster accessory.

"Its body is MB-1917: Bizuni's Tear, an eyeball that was chiseled out by Emperor Charles III of Crusted after he killed the evil dragon 'Plaris' in the middle of the Second Era. Resulting from incorrect purification rites performed by the Orthodox Patriarch.

"It was originally placed for worship in a church located on the outskirts of Binglin City. Its initial appearance was a bright red gem like a planet, with electron-like light spots shining and wandering inside from time to time, as if it were reflecting the The supreme truth of the universe.”

"What became of it later?" Wofya asked curiously.

"Falled." Abena turned to look at Wovya, then turned back and continued:

"Perhaps, it is the reason for the 'curse of the Red Lord', or it may be the conspiracy of the radicals of the 'Comprehensive Sect'. In short, the patriarch has mixed with the senior leaders of the 'Comprehensive Sect', and whenever the full moon and blood moon come, they will He would go to the vampire settlement and try his best to get a bottle of his blood and pour it into it.

"Soon, ordinary believers who had no magic power picked up scissors, daggers, etc. and stabbed their families one after another, and then left with red eyes, stabbing their own hearts. Then came the patriarch, the highly respected Alexander Crew. Nov Rurik, bewitched by the Tears of Bizuni, pierced the chest of Charles III with his own hands with a round-headed cane. The people of Crusaders at the time agreed that Alexander must have thought he saw hell and the devil .

"It is said that in front of Alexander were streets filled with filth and filth, a sky of black and scarlet, dilapidated buildings entangled with purple vines, palace doors full of scars, and insects. The beams, columns and decorative gold railings. As you know, gold is the most stable substance in nature and will not be oxidized and corroded, not to mention the urban construction of Crusted Capital. In terms of sanitation, even in the Steam Age In the middle and late stages, it far exceeded most cities in the Ptoia Empire.

"Back to the 'Tears of Bizuni', this sequential monster gradually turned into pitch black, but when exposed to sunlight, it would be burned briefly, reflecting the original red color in the blue flames. Color. Some people speculate that it is affected by the power of the underworld, or the curse shared by the vampires and the 'Lord of Eternal Red'.

"Later, in the middle and late third era, after Light Hein solved the 'Eternal Red Lord' staying in that church, Ivan XXII got in touch with the slaves of the 'Night Lord' and was awarded Manipulating its power and methods so that throughout the entire late Crusted Empire, the Emperor was almost never harmed by any assassins again."

"That sequential monster... what is the tear? How does it work?" Dark asked curiously, glancing at the still "silent" black smoke.

"'Tears of Bizuni' means 'Tears of Fear' in our ancient Krusted German language. It is said that the blood of the Krusted royal family is mixed with a weak vampire element, which allows them to play the role of 'Bizuni'" "Three forms of tears." Abena further explained:

"First, if it is touched by water source, dark magic source power, or the professional power of the 'Chaos Order Group', in addition to slightly enhancing the user's extraordinary power, it can also completely control everything about a single individual and achieve manipulation His spirit and thinking can turn it into a slave, and can even transform its body into a creature with tentacles, tentacles, and demonic faces, changing the reality of the controlled person, for example, making everyone forget his existence. .

"Usually, people with Crusted blood can only use it once in their lives. If they don't cultivate an absolutely loyal 'person who dares to die', they will never use it easily.

"The second is to have the professional power of flame, light magic power, or the 'good order group'. For example, Ivan 22 himself wears it with him to fight against the mutual attack between 'light' and his own 'dark' , in balance with each other, improve the level and order of the user's magic source power, and increase their spiritual vitality, keeping their consciousness awake at all times and unable to be manipulated by anyone. It also gives them extreme insight, and Accidentally predicting an extremely limited future.

"Third, as we have seen, if it is not used by any human beings and is placed in a certain space, MB-1917-A and MB-1917-B will be generated. One is when the concentration of 'Shang' is high. The black smoke generated under a certain threshold, as long as there is no demigod level, will quickly go crazy, manifesting as self-mutilation and harming others. The black smoke is like a medium, accurately sending 'sad' into deep within your spiritual consciousness.”

"So, what about the other one?" Luo Nie asked.

"Radiation is an invisible, intangible, non-entity, and it is not a magical existence." Abena explained:

"Like a protective barrier, the closer you get to it, the more it will be affected. Eventually, humans attacked by radiation will slowly decompose themselves, that is, the skin will become red, swollen, and ulcerated until they completely lose their ability to repair and turn into a pile of conscious minced meat. .

"But I didn't feel much radiation belonging to 'MB-1917: Tears of Bizuni'. It may have been buried here with Ivan XXII. According to my estimation, we may be vertical We fell into a certain entrance, and then the place we came from was buried by the rocks vibrating from the tentacles that attacked us. In a real sense, we are still in the shallow layer of the 'deep ruins of suffering'."

"However, from the moment we came in until now, there is only this one road in front of us. We don't know whether we can get out or get stuck in it." Dak complained.

"You should have heard of "Future Epic". In the middle of its eighth volume, I recently interpreted a sentence that should be very consistent with our current situation." Abena said.

"What is it? Tell me?"

"The bitter life will not continue to endure hardships, and the wanderers who have gone astray will still lose their way, but the eyes of the Lord are still watching the unyielding soul, leaving a path to the true." Abena chanted.

"That is to say..." Luo Nie analyzed:

"Should we keep moving forward in the only direction until we reach the end point designated by the person who created all this?"

"That's right. Our world, no matter every flower, tree, grass or wind, is the product of the nightmare of the Creator. Perhaps, the great Him is watching us somewhere." Abena spoke in a low voice , as if he was really avoiding something.

It happened that at this moment, the giant door behind several people shook violently.

Clutching their frightened and pounding chests, Dak and Wulfya stood up and looked back, only to see a line in the middle of the rusty, old empire-style door made of steel. The written text, and below it, not far from Wovya's head, the keyhole that was emitting blue light just now turned into a round object that clearly revealed a bit of chaotic white.

"What kind of writing is that?" Wulfya asked doubtfully.

After hearing this, Abena stood up with some difficulty, looked at the text that exuded a faint blue light, and interpreted:

"Burn the sins of mankind, and the world will return to flames. This is... their mantra of the 'Wind Mine', quoted from the long-standing 'Plamini Declaration'."
