Chapter 2392 The Seal of the Ancient Witch
Shade actually felt that his "Lion of Light Armor" should also help Miss Knight resist the influence of abnormal power. Unfortunately, the size of the armor seemed to be tailor-made for him, and Miss Knight, as an ordinary woman, was too different in height and weight from Shade. Once she put it on, it would seriously affect her movements, so he didn't say much.
The "Five-person Ritual" left by the ancient witch was invented specifically for penetrating into the worm's body. The content of the ritual is quite simple. Although the various rare materials obtained from the desert are not enough to fully match the needs, the Philosopher's Stone found in the coffin that sealed the demon last time can play a significant role.
[Philosopher's Stone] is a universal ritual substitute material, and even if some of the Philosopher's Stone is consumed for the ritual, there is still a lot of remaining Philosopher's Stone.
"I never thought that I would use the 'Philosopher's Stone' so wastefully. No, I never thought that I would use the 'Philosopher's Stone' one day."
Miss Sandel whispered while making the final preparations.
After everything was ready and they drank their respective potions, Shade raised the torch, Miss Sandel held a bright blue water ball, Granny Sienod let the vines attach to her relic cane, and Miss Meister melted a handful of sand with flames and let the remaining crystals float around her.
As for Miss Knight, Shade and Granny Sienod originally wanted to enchant with her knight sword, but after checking, Miss Meister thought that the fragile sword could not withstand the power.
Although it was possible to forge another sword temporarily, it was extremely time-consuming, and then Shade discovered that the petrified long sword used by the soul of the ancient hero to pass on [Power of the Earth·Blessing All Things] to him before leaving last time also met the requirements of the ceremony.
So Miss Knight held the petrified long sword, put on the helmet again, and walked towards the depths of the mouth of the huge head with everyone.
The worm's body can indeed isolate the abnormal light from the outside world. Because Shade actually only opened the seal instead of destroying the seal of the ancient witch, under the effect of the seal, the power of space movement cannot be used in the worm's body.
The torch in his hand provided light for everyone, and also allowed everyone to see clearly that the worm's body had no flesh and blood structure, and it was completely like a stone cave. There were only some sticky black residues on the ground, and no one could recognize what it was, so everyone dared not touch it.
The closer you go to the inside of the worm's body, the smoother you can feel the side walls around it become, and even look like a man-made passage. The red flame, the blue water ball, the yellow sand crystal, the green vines and the metal color of the long sword after being enchanted, which formed the pentagram ritual, helped them resist the heavy feeling that their bodies were about to turn into sand.
But even with the help of the ritual, the power of the worm's body still showed its existence. There was no sign of this on Shade, Granny Sienod, and Miss Meister. Every time Miss Sander and Miss Knight took a step, gravel would rustle down on their bodies.
The invisible mental pressure even made Shade feel dizzy, but even Miss Knight could continue to move forward, so of course he would not say that he wanted to rest.
Fortunately, the seal of the ancient witch was really reliable. Even though the hole had been opened, the power in the worm's body could not immediately become agitated. When the few people who were moving forward silently saw the light in front of them, everyone except Miss Meister became excited:
"Found it!"
The gravity in the worm's body was also affected by the abnormal force. The more inward, the greater the gravity. Because they had to take care of Miss Knight, even though they had seen the end at this moment, the walking speed of the few people after the excitement remained unchanged.
Shade's physical strength was no problem to withstand such a huge gravity, but except for him, the speed of the other four people was slowing down. Of course, Miss Meister must be pretending. Granny Siamnode is not in her prime because of aging. As for the mermaid girl, she performs about the same as Granny Siamnode, or even better. This may be related to the huge water pressure in the deep sea environment where she lives.
But no matter what, step by step, she finally successfully reached the glowing position. According to Shade's estimation, this position is not the tail of the worm, but slightly behind the middle.
When everyone saw the scene at the light source clearly, they immediately noticed the last compass fragment.
The glowing light source is a huge sphere, but in fact the light comes from three wheels with overlapping centers, tilted 60 degrees to each other and rotating in an interlaced manner. Each wheel is inlaid with thirteen different items, and the last compass fragment needed to find the "Heart of the Oasis" is inlaid on one of the wheels.
In the center of these three hollow wheels, that is, in the center of the golden light, a curled-up snake-like monster is imprisoned. The thing was obviously alive, its dark body was almost identical to that of the giant worm, and the head of the snake-sized worm was also human-like.
It looked very weak, and even when it noticed the arrival of everyone, it only trembled a few times.
Even Miss Knight, who knew the least about mysticism, saw that this was the core of the seal. And it was obvious that the power left by the giant worm's corpse should be imprisoned by the three rotating and interlaced golden rings.
"If we take away the compass fragments, it won't destroy the seal, right?"
Miss Sandel asked worriedly, and Granny Sienod hesitated:
"Judging from the current situation, the power of this worm is much weaker than when it was sealed by the ancient witch. It is also possible that the compass fragments were taken away, which will not have much impact. Of course, this is just speculation."
After saying that, he looked at Shade, and Shade asked the light brown-skinned lady:
"Miss Meister, what do you think?"
I originally thought that this lady would say something like "I don't know either", but I didn't expect that she actually stepped forward and carefully observed the situation of the seal, and then came to a conclusion:
"Judging from the ether flow of this seal, just removing the compass fragments will not directly destroy the entire seal. The methods of the ancient witch are not that fragile.
But the ancient earth witch should also have left behind a method to deal with the seal being artificially destroyed: if we try to destroy the seal internally, maybe the seal will be fully activated again. At that time, if we cannot leave immediately, we will be trapped inside the corpse of this bug forever. Of course, if there is a way to weaken the remaining power of this corpse, the ancient witch's seal will be reactivated slower. "
Although Miss Meister's tone meant speculation, Shade already regarded this as fact:
"In other words, we can take away the compass, but after taking away the compass, we have to leave very quickly."
The other three people did not question this "speculation". Although Shade knew that this god was fully capable of directly solving this trouble, he obviously would not take action again.
"I am the slowest. If necessary, you don't have to worry about my safety."
Miss Knight said immediately, and Miss Sandel opened her mouth, but did not say anything and did not need to care about her own safety.
Grandma Siam Nord shook her head:
"Without the protection of the five-person ceremony, none of us can get out. Now is not the time to sacrifice."
She did not mention that the "five-person" ceremony could be maintained by four people, and judging from the situation when she came in just now, at least close to the "exit", Shade, Miss Meister and Granny Siam Nord, You can pass safely by yourself.
"Don't rush and prepare to escape. Let me try to see if we can weaken the power of this thing."
Shade frowned and said, came to the light and tried to put his hand in.
After his hands touched the light generated by the three-round golden ring, he thought that there would be power to bounce him away immediately, but in fact he just paused and his right hand entered it smoothly.
[Outlander, the number of "Witch Reverberations" you possess has reached the limit. The ancient earth witch's sealing ceremony has made you a witch with a seat in the parliament by default. 】
"She" in his ear softly explained the information obtained from that power, and Shade didn't care and continued to stretch his hand inward.
The tiny worm that was originally just trembling suddenly jumped up and bit Shade's finger when Shade's hand was about to reach the core of the seal.
But under the suppression of the seal, its movements were too slow. Shade dodged the insect very deftly and even touched it before retracting his hand.
Granny Siam, who also came to the seal, immediately saw that the entire surface of Shade's right index finger was covered with a layer of gravel. But before more transformations occurred, the "pollution" faded away on its own, allowing Shade's fingers to return to normal:
"My petrification resistance is very high."
He explained, and then informed his companions of the results of the investigation just now:
"It's very troublesome. The worms here are not entities at all. They are the concrete image of the concept of 'worm corpse power' under the sealing technique of the ancient witch. This thing is extremely polluting, and there is no possibility for us to put it into use." It annihilates.”
Of course, others also knew that it was impossible. Except for Miss Meister, the other four people together were probably no match for the ancient earth witch. Even the ancient witches couldn't completely solve the problem, and neither could they.
"We can't hesitate here for too long. In this way, I will try to weaken it. Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, we will take away the compass fragment and escape immediately. Whether we succeed in the end depends on fate. Of course, If you have other ideas, you can propose them now.”
