“Dici’s pies use more ingredients than Backlund’s, but they like to add some local spices. The first few bites will feel a bit strange, but once you get used to it, you’ll find it has a unique flavor…” Klein sat in the hotel room, occasionally taking a bite of the greasy pie, and occasionally drinking some cool and refreshing sweet iced tea. He was having a very comfortable time.
After eating and drinking, he did not clean up immediately. Instead, he picked up the top hat on the chair next to him and put it on his head.
At the same time, the glove on his left hand suddenly became transparent, and his entire body quickly faded and disappeared.
Klein entered the spirit world and was going to "travel" to the port of Hakata in the Raging Sea to find food for his "creeping hunger".
The Eskoson Port where he was located did belong to the Disi Gulf, but it was not at any point on the coastline, because it was an island, the southernmost island in the Disi Gulf. Crossing it meant entering the raging sea.
So, just after Klein traveled towards the predetermined coordinates for a second, something strange appeared in front of him:
Air currents from the nearby spiritual world took shape, swirling into wind, whistling and covering a vast area with no visible edges. The light inside was dim, dark clouds were piling up, and lightning flashed one after another with a sense of gloom, making the surrounding scene look like the end of the world.
At this moment, Klein seemed to have arrived at an ocean ruled by endless storms, but he knew clearly that this was the spiritual world.
"Sure enough, just like what is mentioned in many mystical books, the mighty power of the death god's fall not only changed the climate of the ocean between the northern and southern continents, making it full of natural disasters, dangerous currents, and known for its violence, but also broke the barrier between reality and illusion, polluting and destroying the corresponding spiritual world, causing the two sides to influence each other... In the violent sea area, if a ceremony involving the spiritual world is held and abilities related to the spiritual world are used, there is a high probability that accidents will occur and unexpected changes will occur..." Klein sighed, verifying the records in the book with the scenes he saw with his own eyes.
In his opinion, if it were not for this, the countries of the Northern Continent would not have waited until Emperor Roselle discovered a safe route before they had the opportunity to invade the Southern Continent. After all, for many High-Sequence Powerhouses, the natural barriers in the normal sense could be directly bypassed.
The Roselle safe passage is not only in the geographical sense, but also in the mystical sense!
In other words, because the raging sea and the corresponding spiritual world influence and overlap with each other, Klein can directly refer to the local nautical charts and travel through the natural disasters in the spiritual world.
After recalling what he had read before, Klein found the correct location and entered the deep and dark spiritual world.
The sound of howling wind came from all directions. Even if it was just the aftermath, it made Klein feel a chill from the depths of his soul or his bones. This made him believe that if he was moving in a spirit state and had not used the "Black Emperor" card, "Tyrant" card, or Azik Copper Whistle to strengthen and enhance himself, he might have suffered quite serious injuries.
If he was not on the "safe channel" and faced the black storm full of death, he felt that even with a physical body, he would probably not be able to withstand it.
Compared to the strong wind, the deep lightning is more dangerous. Even with just one lightning bolt, Klein doubted that he could withstand it. As for the hidden whirlpools and the roaming creatures, they were another risk.
"There is no real seawater here. I wonder what is at the end of the whirlpool..." Klein moved along the safe channel at a slow pace, occasionally looking around to gain experience.
Suddenly, he saw a strange creature.
It was dragging a huge sickle, and was located in the black storm. It was made up of one skull head after another, bloated and huge.
Those skull heads were either gray or gray-black, of varying sizes and races. They were layered on top of each other to form the body, limbs, and head.
Almost at the same time Klein saw this strange creature, it also discovered Klein. All the skulls turned their heads at the same time, and with a crackling sound that could not be covered up by the whistling sound, they all looked over.
Those deep eye sockets were one after another, one on top of another, countless.
Klein's forehead jumped, and he used his "travel" ability to directly pass through here and enter the next safe channel.
And beneath the illusory sea level nearby, bloody arms stretched out and blue-black illusory tentacles waved upwards.
…………
Outside the Silver City, a black mausoleum was embedded upside down in the ground, like an upside-down pyramid.
At this time, dense clumps of black plants grew in all the cracks between the bricks and stones of the mausoleum, and even the heavy gate at the entrance had been eroded.
Colin Iliad, with two swords on his back, was standing outside the door with two other elders from the "Six-Man Council", examining the passage that sloped deep into the ground.
Luo Weiya, with her silver-gray curly hair, stared at him quietly for a while and then said:
"That should be enough."
Compared with his previous irregular switching between different mental states, this "shepherd" elder is now deep and calm, without any abnormality, and his pair of light gray eyes are restrained and deep.
Colin nodded slightly, took out a bottle of medicine from each of the two small compartments on his belt, unscrewed the lid, and gulped down the drink.
His light blue eyes quickly brightened, and the blood vessels on his wrinkle-free skin stood out, tinged with silver.
Then the chief drew out a straight sword and evenly smeared the silver-grey ointment on the surface.
As he prepared step by step, another elder of the "Six-Man Council", White Hillmon, was doing something similar.
This sturdy man with a shaved head and a dark green symbol tattooed on the top of his head, who is nearly two meters and a half tall, looks no more than 45 years old, but his actual age is almost 80. He is also a Sequence 4 "Demon Hunter", a half-god, half-human being, and one of the main pillars of the City of Silver.
——In Silver City, since there is no shortage of main materials, the residents know how to act, and have enough combat experience, so the upgrade of mid- and low-sequences is relatively simple. There are many extraordinary people at Sequence 6, but starting from Sequence 5, due to various problems such as rituals, the number of extraordinary people began to drop drastically. By the time of Sequence 4, which is a qualitative change, not even one may be born in a generation.
Waite Hillmon did not use the dual swords that orthodox "demon hunters" usually use, so that different ointments can work at the same time and deal with more and more complicated situations. He held an iron-gray long hammer and carried a huge bow on his back that looked huge given his height and physique, like a miniature giant walking out of an oil painting.
The giant bow is a magical item, and its side effects are not too severe. It is recorded in the history books of the City of Silver. It got its name because it shot and killed a giant dragon at the level of a demigod. It is called:
"Dragon Hunting Bow"!
After making his preparations, Waite slammed the iron-gray hammer in front of him, then took out the giant bow and slowly pulled it back.
Suddenly, flashes of lightning appeared and gathered together, stretching longer and longer, forming a dazzling and brilliant arrow between the bow back and the bowstring.
As soon as Waite loosened his fingers on the bowstring, the long lightning arrow jumped directly onto the gate of the mausoleum covered with weeds that looked like human hair.
Silently, the heavy door seemed to have been corroded long ago, and it suddenly broke into pieces in the exploding lightning, shattering into debris, revealing a deep passage.
Pale lights flickered in the passage, and there was no end in sight, giving people a gloomy and cold feeling.
Two complex dark green symbols then appeared in Colin's eyes, reflecting the scene at the entrance of the mausoleum in the center.
A few seconds later, he walked into the mausoleum with the straight sword in his hand tilted. Waite slung the "Dragon Hunting Bow" on his back, drew out the iron-gray long hammer, and followed closely behind him.
Lovia, who was wearing a purple robe, had no change in expression. She walked through the broken door at a moderate pace with her hands empty.
Continuously descending along the passage and stairs, the three members of the "Six-Man Council" were not at all impatient or uneasy in the completely silent environment, letting the sound of their footsteps echo around them.
After walking another floor, a river suddenly appeared in front of them, an illusory and dark river.
Beneath the surface of the river, there were bloody arms with their skin peeled off, green vines with baby faces, and slippery tentacles with eyes, all crowded together and constantly leaping upwards, trying to grab everything that passed by.
At the edge of the river near the entrance, there were figures of some taller and some shorter, dressed in shabby clothes, walking back and forth with their backs to the three elders, seemingly worried about how to cross the river.
Suddenly, one of them noticed someone approaching and slowly turned to look at Colin, Waite and Lovia.
This is an old man with completely white hair, deep wrinkles on his forehead and mouth, light blue but empty eyes, and a numb and confused expression.
Colin Iliad's eyes narrowed suddenly as he recognized who the other person was.
This was his brother, the brother possessed by Amon, the brother whose life was ended by his own hands!
At this moment, other figures turned around, revealing faces that Colin, Waite and Lovia were very familiar with but extremely numb.
There was still no noticeable change in Lovia's expression, but behind her, an illusory knight over five meters tall had appeared.
The knight was wearing an ancient silver full body armor, his eyes were dark red like blood, burning like fire.
…………
After carefully passing through the "safe channel" for more than ten seconds, Klein arrived at the Port of Hakata in the Turbulent Sea. This place is off the main channel and does not belong to any country. It is a free city for pirates.
After his feet touched the rock surface, Klein, who had casually created a stranger's face, did not rush into the port town with its haphazardly constructed buildings. Instead, he reached into his pocket and took out an iron cigarette box.
Just now, while traveling through the "Raging Sea" of the spiritual world, he noticed that Azik's copper whistle was vibrating slightly!
After removing the "spiritual wall", Klein opened the cigarette box and pinched the ancient and exquisite copper whistle.
The copper whistle lost its usual coldness and softness and felt a little hot, but this abnormality was quickly fading away.
