Chapter 175: Sejin Stone, Inner Space
Bai Mo sat up suddenly. If a hunter disappeared in the wild, he could basically be declared dead. Super-class people were not just any cats and dogs. The disappearance of two super-class people at once was no small matter.
He turned his gaze to the hunter girl, "Are you sure?"
"They were my last partners and I haven't been in touch with them for a month."
The hunter girl said sincerely, "I am not sure whether they are dead or not, so I am the only one who knows this."
"Where did they disappear?"
"have no idea."
The hunter girl said this first, then turned on the tablet, placed it in front of Bai Mo, and called up a map of the distribution of monsters.
"This is part of the plague water monster distribution map I helped them make. Currently, only the plague water monster to the east of Changhe has not been detected. I think the source of the plague may be related to this area."
The hunter girl stretched out her white fingers and pointed at several bodies of water on the map, including several lakes and rivers.
Most of them are the territories of demons, but these are the lower reaches of the long river near Jiangcheng. If the source of the plague is in the water, it should be in the upper reaches.
He shook his head, thinking inertially is not good.
Bai Mo wrote down the distribution map. Just thinking about traveling such a large area gave him a headache. But he still asked:
"What's your last guess?"
"This is a rumor among the wizard community," the hunter girl said, "It says that this plague is the work of the Black Church's Saran. She is not satisfied with what happened in Bo City and wants to start a plague that will spread across Kyushu, with Jiang City being the starting point."
"Oh." Bai Mo nodded, unable to deny it. He stood up, stretched himself, and opened the window with a wave of his hand.
"Continue to help me keep an eye out for useful information. I'm leaving now."
After he finished speaking, he turned into a breeze and blew into the world outside the window.
Bai Mo did not rush to check out the place mentioned in the intelligence, but first bought a map of the area near Jiangcheng and a map of the distribution of monsters.
By the time I had these things in mind, it was already dark.
Chenghu
The morning mist was blown away by a gust of wind, revealing an empty and desolate area with a dark purple flat ground, next to a huge sunken pit that was a hundred meters deep.
In the flowing breeze, Bai Mo's figure slowly emerged.
There was nothing to see in that barren land, but this pit also had many signs of human visitation.
Looking down from above, the light gradually became thinner. The entire giant pit was about six meters deep, and the uneven pit bottom to the left was illuminated by the thin light.
A corridor of neither too big nor too small is just revealed. There is no need to look carefully, as the footsteps of predecessors have already marked its location.
With a flash of his figure, Bai Mo appeared at the entrance of the corridor.
A crystal ball of light appeared in his hand, and he stepped inside.
The passage is built with blue bricks with magical restrictions, probably to guard against demons that can walk on the ground.
There is a piece missing, and the trace is still very fresh. I don’t know who is so bored.
The pervasive sound waves presented the entire structure of the dungeon before his eyes. First was the hall, where there was nothing to find.
Not only was there no antique to be seen, Bai Mo even discovered traces of chiseling on the wall tiles.
Continue going inside, searching room by room according to the image in your mind.
Room after room looked like they had been visited by someone, and there was really nothing left, even the lamps that should have been embedded in the wall.
Don't miss any details and search bit by bit.
But the deeper he searched, the less Bai Mo found. He didn't even find a coffin. The entire small underground palace was empty.
He even had the urge to turn around and leave, not wanting to waste time here. It felt like even the traps and anti-theft formations might have been used up by people who had been here before.
Therefore he felt that the chances of him discovering anything here were almost zero.
But it's here.
Better finish checking it out.
When he reached the last basement, Bai Mo looked at the space in front of him which was only the size of a dormitory, especially the stone wall in front of him, and fell into deep thought.
In the structural diagram constructed by his string detection, there should be an area shaped like a dumbbell.
There should be no wall in front of me.
“Bang!”
With a crisp sound, a stronger string detection spread along with the sound of the finger snapping, once again providing more detailed feedback on the surrounding situation.
There is indeed a wall in front of us, but there is also a passage.
Concentrating his mind, Bai Mo heard a barely audible sound like the sound of wind, which came from the wall in front of him.
"Sound Fantasy?!"
Bai Mo said this in confusion, stretched out his hand, and a gust of wind hit the wall in front of him, and then dispersed as if it had hit a real wall.
"interesting."
With a chuckle, Bai Mo discovered the mystery of the wall in front of him.
A silver light flashed on his hand, and a huge thought impact hit the wall in front of him hard.
With a faint cracking sound, the wall in front of him seemed undamaged.
However, Bai Mo stepped into the wall and came to a passage which was slightly narrower than the wall.
That wall is a spatial wall of the space system, and then it is covered with sound illusions of the sound system. If it were not for the sound system, it might not be possible to find it.
Bai Mo looked around the passage and saw no signs that anyone had been there.
Continue along the passage and you will come to a basement on the opposite side.
This basement is about the same size as the one outside, but to Bai Mo's surprise, this basement has a door.
This means that there is actually space behind the door, but he didn't detect it.
Bai Mo's eyebrows twitched, and he looked carefully at the door and the walls around it.
The walls of the previous passage changed from green to khaki, and the walls of this basement also turned khaki.
Bai Mo didn't pay much attention at first, but now after observing carefully, he found a little difference.
The wall in front of me with the stone door, along with the stone door, was glowing a faint golden color.
Bai Mo had a guess in his mind about the stone that could block sound magic detection.
He stretched out his hand and pointed, and the outlines of two arrows appeared in the air, one with a faint silver glow, and the other with nothing in it.
Two arrows hit the pale golden wall in front of them, but nothing happened.
The space and sound attacks did not cause any damage to the wall!
Bai Mo tilted his palm, and a wind blade came out from his palm, which was lightly imprinted on the light golden wall in front of him, leaving a not very deep scratch.
It is basically confirmed that the wall in front is made of serpentine stone that can isolate dimensional magic.
Seirgenstone is not a very hard mineral, but a product of elemental veins. It can be found in all elemental veins.
If this entire basement is made of sekinite, Bai Mo's dimensional magic will be useless.
Knowing what this thing was, Bai Mo checked the basement again but found no mechanism.
Then you will know what to do.
The contract magic circle shines, summoning the Divine Dust Tiger.
"Daju, quickly use the Tiger's Heart to smash it!"
Bai Mo pointed at the stone door in front of him and gave orders to the still confused little tiger.
In a month, the Divine Dust Tiger had already digested the commander-level spirit and was just sleeping out of habit.
After all, children like to sleep.
After hearing Bai Mo's words, it suddenly became a little sober, and looked in the direction of Bai Mo's finger, at the stone door that looked very heavy.
He immediately twisted his body, and the tail behind him was like a knife handle. He pulled up a tall, thick, bright yellow rock knife from the ground, and as he twisted his body, he slammed it heavily on the stone gate in front of him.
With a loud bang, countless pieces of gravel flew everywhere, and the stone gate in front was directly split open by the powerful tail blade of Shenchenhu.
When the dust settled, the Divine Dust Tiger ran inside curiously.
"Wait" Before Bai Mo could stop him, he saw a bright yellow figure leap into the passage.
When she heard what he said, she looked back at him and uttered a puzzled sound.
“Ah~”
"Be careful, it might be dangerous." Bai Mo said and stepped into the passage.
"Cat!"
"No? Even if you don't have any, be careful. Don't be too curious. It will kill the cat."
Bai Mo said casually, asking Daju to follow him and not walk too far. He looked around the passage.
The passage was also glowing with a faint golden color. He indeed felt that his dimensional magic was suppressed. Before he walked in completely, a detection sound was emitted by him.
Not sensing the presence of any living creatures, Bai Mo felt a little relieved, so he continued to walk inside.
The light from the crystal ball clearly illuminates the walls above, below, left and right. The walls look ordinary, without any murals or information.
Suddenly, a faint yellow light suddenly flowed across the side wall. Bai Mo paused and turned to look.
When Daju saw that Bai Mo didn't leave, he looked up at him curiously, and then followed his gaze to the wall on the side.
"Woo-hoo?"
Bai Mo ignored Da Ju's doubts, extinguished the crystal ball, and walked to the wall, staring at the line between the bricks.
If he saw it correctly, the forbidden light just now flowed through here.
But now there is nothing on the wall.
Bai Mo was not anxious and waited quietly.
After a while, Daju had shaved off three floor tiles, finally.
A touch of pale yellow color lights up from the edge where the wall tiles and floor tiles meet on the side, and flows slowly upwards in a winding manner along the lines formed between the bricks on the wall.
The brick line flows through the side wall, reaches the top of the head, and continues forward, but suddenly disappears when it reaches the middle part of the brick wall above the head.
It's like the current is flowing through a circuit, and suddenly the power is cut off in the middle.
Bai Mo looked up and watched the scene quietly. It was indeed the forbidden light, but this light dissipated before completing the forbidden trajectory.
It’s not surprising. This underground palace has existed for too long, and time is enough to change too many things.
Generally, the pale yellow forbidden light is used for reinforcement and sealing, while the forbidden thunder has more functions. This restriction has not been completed, and Bai Mo does not know whether it is for reinforcement or sealing.
But it was enough to remind him that the place ahead might not be a safe place.
Light up the crystal ball and continue forward.
The entire passage is not long, only one hundred and twenty meters.
The further you go in, the more obvious a familiar chilly feeling becomes. At the same time, the dimensional suppression around you becomes stronger, and the moisture in the air becomes thicker and thicker.
Bai Mo frowned, and continued to move forward slowly, quickly trying to find where he had felt this familiar cold feeling in his mind.
Cursed Crow Island!
When he faced the powerful cursed crows on Cursed Crow Island, that area gave him this kind of gloomy feeling.
There's a curse in it! And it's very strong.
Bai Mo glanced at the Shenchen Tiger at his feet, a moon-white light flowed in his eyes, and a recalling magic circle appeared instantly. In the puzzled eyes of the Shenchen Tiger, he took it back to the contract space.
He continued to go inside, and the moment he finished walking through the passage, he suddenly felt a spatial fluctuation.
It seemed like it had passed through a layer of space, or it seemed like a short-distance space teleportation array.
Bai Mo felt that this teleportation mechanism was very ancient. With his strength, he could completely resist the power of space teleportation, but he did not do so.
He was very curious about what this mysterious thing was.
As soon as my feet touched the ground, a chilling and cold feeling as if I were in the coldest days of winter instantly enveloped my whole body.
The Guardian Wind and the Illusionary Heart Armor, which had been protecting his soul, also had different reactions.
The wind of protection dissipated bit by bit, and on the mind protection armor of the Void Armor, wisps of dark red power crawled up.
Bai Mo looked down at his feet. He found that the ground under his feet was not the actual ground, but a thin layer of spatial plane.
Seeing the patterns on the spatial plane under his feet, he quickly realized that the spatial force just now was not spatial teleportation.
In modern terms, the platform is a space elevator.
When Bai Mo passes through the passage and enters, it is equivalent to entering an elevator. He will instantly be brought into this inner space opened up in mid-air by the power of space.
If the magical world is compared to a painting, then he is now in a relatively deep place under the canvas, deeper than the depth of the canvas opened by his dimensional walking.
He looked outside and could vaguely see the world on the surface of space. He was located just above the exposed pit below the half-blown hill.
If the hill had not been blown up, he should be inside the hill.
Bai Mo looked forward, and countless spatial turbulences poured in, constantly destroying the originally stable space.
It became like a big hole in a house, with strong winds constantly rushing in.
The entire space opened up is not large, just the size of a fighting hall, but space means similar to the three-step tower should have been applied. The space turbulence that poured in has been lingering in the place where there is a space hole until now.
But because the entire space is incomplete, this means of stretching the space is disappearing.
Turning his eyes, Bai Mo's gaze fell on the seven stone carvings in the center of the space in front of him, and the pool of water surrounding the stone carvings.
The water in the pond was a mixture of dark red and dark green. Dark green gas was rising from the surface of the water, like poisonous mosquitoes and flies, slowly spreading outwards. A cold and cursed feeling was also emanating from the water.
Curse and poison!
Bai Mo's eyes lit up. Could it be that the plague in Jiangcheng and the thousand-meter-long dead zone outside were caused by this pool of water? !
Whose catacombs are these? Why is there a cursed poison pool here?
