Blood Candle Keep Disciple

Chapter 368 The Wisdom of Mortals

In an instant, the seal opened by the white-robed mage seemed to turn into an invisible curse and swept over everyone present.

Of course, they had no way of noticing it at this time, but simply because the trap expert died, they slowed down their progress and advanced in a more cautious formation.

But 10 minutes later, a terrifying anomaly happened.

At first, some team members saw ghosts who didn't know whether they were hallucinations or real ones, and then more and more people said that they felt that the entire passage was shaking more and more violently.

Until the end, Lecky himself felt the abnormality in front of him.When the team members reported it, he thought it was a slight earthquake, but seeing it with his own eyes now made him wonder if he was walking inside some living thing disguised as a rock.

The "squirm" of the tunnel is too natural and gentle, which is a characteristic of living things, not earth and rocks.

Bite the bullet and persist for another 10 minutes, the team had to stop.Because of severe vertigo, even the most elite soldiers had to start vomiting.

After resting on the spot for 5 minutes, the situation didn't get better, but got worse.The world in the eyes of the expedition members became more and more distorted.

Some of them feel that the road ahead has become an infinitesimal point, and they need to squeeze themselves into a wireworm to pass; some find that the companions in their eyes have been seriously distorted and deformed, and the whole arm of the friend around them is spiraling. Curl into the shape of a treble clef.

If it's just this, the illusion is not enough to shake this group of elite soldiers.But then, the soldier who was pointed out that his arm was twisted tried to touch his own shape, and then he was horrified to find that his arm was really twisted, and he didn't even know it!

In the next second, he went crazy and rushed into a random passageway recklessly, and was never seen again.

Seeing one's own body distorted and deformed is undoubtedly one of the greatest horrors a human being can face, but it is not enough to drive a specially trained soldier insane.

Lecky immediately realized the seriousness of the problem. Their minds and spirits were definitely affected by some kind of unknown influence. There was a big problem in this pothole!However, it was too late.

Madness is like an epidemic, and after the soldier with the twisted arm comes the second, the third.It wasn't until the naturalist went crazy and gouged out his own eyes that the problem was solved.

The frenzied attempt brought him a sudden lucidity, and he immediately pointed out the problem.

Whether that's a curse or something, whether it's the real world or their minds that's distorted, it's all about the vision.Just give up vision and you can return to normal.

And the so-called abandonment of vision is not just about closing your eyes.As long as you still have the organs of vision, the chaos and disorder surrounding you will be twisted endlessly, even if you don't open your eyes.

After two or three simple attempts, the exploration team confirmed these hypotheses.Immediately afterwards, the second disaster that caught Leckie off guard occurred.

Through the performance of the eight "players" who came from different church forces and were called Lamarck game candidates by the Earl along the way, Lecky judged that they all had considerable distrust of each other, and even had murderous intentions.

However, they didn't want the seven surviving people to take the same action immediately after the mutation happened, as if someone commanded them.

They seem to ignore the pain and the possible miserable second half of their life after being blind, and they self-destruct their eyes without hesitation.

Then, they launched an attack on their own men.

At the beginning, Lecky wondered whether these people were affected by some kind of curse at the same time because of their abnormal behavior that was too uniform, and lost control of themselves.

But then their clear and intelligent communication and tacit cooperation with each other made Laiji aware of the problem.

The unexpected attacks of the candidates and their unique methods caused the expedition team to suffer heavy losses in the first place.But no matter how distorted the scene in the field of vision becomes, the man with eyes still has a certain advantage in battle over the man who is suddenly blind.

Expanding the realm of [Climbing the Path], Lecky crushed the past under the cover of his soldiers, and finally turned the tide and ended this unexpected and catastrophic internal strife.

There are only four people left on our side, that is, myself and three private captains with outstanding strength.And two of the candidates managed to escape to the depths of the ruins even though they were blind.

All the rest died in this short but deadly battle.

At this point, Lecky actually wanted to evacuate.But he didn't know how much the two escaped players knew, and what else they would do in the ruins.

If it is true that there is a powerful weapon hidden in the depths of the ruins, as the information obtained by the Earl, then things will be quite difficult.

It’s okay if you simply suffer a serious loss and choose to quit and regroup, but now there are two enemies with unknown details staying deep in the ruins, who knows if you make a fuss at this time, will you see the sudden power of heaven descending from the sky as soon as you go out? Uptown leveling?
As a last resort, Leckie bit the bullet and led the remaining three to pursue in depth.

What happened next was beyond Leckie's expectations once again.They walked blindly, but they touched the bodies of the two candidates one after another.

There are neither traps nor traps along the way. The only most serious crisis that seriously injured a private soldier captain was a life-threatening attack launched by his own people who had gone mad and fled into the depths of the ruins.

Inexplicably, the success is complete, but at this time, if you want to retreat again...

Think back to the present.

"Hey... It's not that I want to die, but that we have no way out," the old housekeeper said in despair, realizing the loyalty of the three captains:

"Half an hour ago, I didn't touch any walls. Did any of you touch them?"

There was a silence.Lackey could feel the trembling of his arms above his shoulders.

At this time, as the commander of the army, Lecky needs to play a role in stabilizing the morale of the army.He explained: "Now we have completely lost our way, and the only way to break the situation is to go to the place where the sound came from.

Thinking about the complexity of the corridor just now, even if we turn around and walk in the opposite direction of the sound, it is impossible to find the correct passage to go back outside...

Wait, did you see that? !That thing, the place where the sound came out, is right in front of you! "The old butler suddenly yelled hysterically, startling the three blind captains behind him.

"what?!"

"No! My lord... My lord, he is crazy! We are all blind! Blind... How can we see things if we are blind?!"

"Wait! I saw it too! It's a crystal, I don't know what material it is, it's the sound it makes, it's spinning right in front of us, it's... a regular octahedron.

You see, the one as big as your palm is right in front of you! "
