Chapter 304 Suddenly I had an epiphany(1/2)
At the end of the tunnel, on a raised platform.
Everyone stood on the edge of the platform and looked down, and could see the stars of fire leaping on the river involuntarily.
There is a gentle and peaceful wind on the river, bringing the silent singing voices in the distance. Only a few words can be heard on the edge of this platform, but it is enough to move everyone.
A figure flowed peacefully from their eyes on a paper boat or a wooden boat.
"This is the river of the dead."
Sanger whispered:
"The road I chose is a shortcut to Ice Saw Valley. As long as we successfully cross the River of the Dead, we will only have about two days left before Ice Saw Valley. Even if Biros wants to take action on the second half of the road, she will not have a chance."
River of the Dead.
Xu Nan nodded silently.
As part of the multiverse, the world of the dead has always been relatively independent. The monarchs of the dead rarely appear outside the world of the dead. They are only responsible for maintaining the order and balance of the world of the dead.
Although there are lichs, undead and other undead creatures active in the world, and various undead magics are popular in the world, people always know very little about the world of the dead.
Most people only know that the monarch in the world of the Dead has supreme authority and is an existence that can be on par with the Lord God of the Heavenly Realm.
Generally speaking, even the madmen in the abyss will not easily provoke the world of the dead.
Even more so, the devil and evil spirits.
Therefore, the status of the Dead World is quite transcendent, and near the River of the Dead, which represents the souls of the Dead World, there are also powerful [Muser Knights] patrols. No one dares to provoke troubles around here, otherwise it is equivalent to provoking the majesty of the monarch of the Dead World!
Sanger chose this path, probably because he wanted to minimize the chances of Biross taking action!
After all, no matter how bold Biluo was, she would not dare to provoke the monarch of the Dead World when she was almost Mingtao provoked the three gods of the Heavenly Realm and the Ancient Gods.
If she has ideas about the seal of the astray, then the road after crossing the River of the Dead will be her only chance.
It is not difficult to see from Sanger's tone that he must have made arrangements for the subsequent road.
With this in mind, Xu Nan was also much more at ease.
"However, how should we get through?"
"It seems that the River of the Dead is not something that the living can pass through? Do we need the undead to transform into bodies?"
Xu Nan put forward his own ideas.
He himself had the ability to incarnate the undead early, and the rest could also be solved by magic.
I believe that with the spells of Lich Sanger, it is not a big problem to temporarily turn a few people into a dead state.
"You want to try to deceive the head of the life contract?"
Sanger shrugged: "This is almost impossible. Don't say that I'm just a divine lich, even if I'm a supreme lich, I'm afraid I can't do that."
"The contract of life is the biggest secret of the world of the Dead. It's okay if you want to use spells to pretend to be a ghost elsewhere, but it won't work here. Have you seen that black knight? He is just one of the eyes of the king's monarch. What you do cannot be hidden from him..."
The lich pointed to a black shadow on the other side and said.
Everyone looked over and looked at the shadow for a long time. The shadow did not act rashly, as if they had not seen the legendary team at all.
He stayed there for a while, then left on his horse.
This should be the [Muser Knight] who is responsible for patrolling the River of the Dead.
They have incredible power in the realm of the world of the dead.
"Then how should we get through?"
Dingxiang couldn't help but say curiously: "Swim over? Or fly over?"
"But I can't fly..."
Sanger laughed:
"Swimming over? It's really a good idea."
"Maybe you'll find yourself becoming a real skeleton rack as you swim...Okay, I'm not kidding."
In Xu Nan's urging eyes, Sangel shrugged:
"We don't need to do anything, we just need to wait for a ferryman."
"This river is not only the River of the Dead, but also a very famous ancient event. I was too lazy to explain it to you because that incident was too complicated... What you need to remember is that the River of the Dead and the freshwater lake of the underground world [Heart-Devouring Lake] overlapped partly, and there is a ferryman on the Lake of the Devouring Lake that I am very familiar with, and he will take us there."
"Did you see the docks upstream and downstream of the river beach?"
"The only thing we need to do is to split the manpower and spread it on these docks..."
...
In Sanger's introduction, everyone briefly learned about the history of the River of the Dead and the Lake of the Heart.
Simply put, before the River of the Dead officially flowed through this place, there was a huge lake called the Heart-Eating Lake here in the underground world of the main material world. Something happened in this lake, so after the River of the Dead passed through this place, the lake itself did not disappear, but instead overlapped with the River of the Dead.
Sanger himself didn't know why this overlap occurred, but it was certain that this overlap brought about a bug that could be used.
The dedicated ferrymen on the Heart-Devouring Lake can freely enter and exit the two ends of the River of the Dead.
He and his ship, and other passengers on the ship, can pass through the River of the Dead - or in other words, they pass through the part of the overlapping of the Heart-Eating Lake and the River of the Dead.
Both the Knights of the Messe and the Dead Monarch have accused of the existence of this bug.
When Sanger was young, he often worked for the ferryman's boat - this is also an important reason why this shortcut exists.
However, the ferryman of the Heart-Devouring Lake itself is also a very strange existence.
Because of the big incident at that time, he was almost immortal. He would provide ferry services to passengers on both sides of the Heart-Devouring Lake, and all the passengers had to pay was to answer him a question.
Of course, this question cannot be lying.
Otherwise, you may be thrown directly into the Heart-Devouring Lake or the River of the Dead by the Ferryer. If the former is lucky, you can escape alive, but if the latter is basically gone...
In addition, the docks where ferrymen's ships dock are also random.
According to Sangel's observation, there are five piers on the east bank of the Heart-Eating Lake. These piers have their own names when they were discovered, namely [Old Man's Wharf 1] to [Old Man's Wharf 5].
There must be someone waiting at every wharf. Once the ferryman appears, he must send a signal to summon others to come as soon as possible.
Because the ferrymen usually don't wait long at the pier.
There are five docks, theoretically only five people are needed.
However, in order to prevent accidents, Sanger still performed the following scheduling and allocation:
There are four legends, each of whom is responsible for an old man's wharf - Sanger himself is in the old man's wharf 1, Ben Frank is the wharf 2, Akun is 3, and Evelyn is 4; the last wharf is 3, Luo Song, Ding Lilac and Liu Yi and three people are waiting together.
There is a reason for this distribution method.
"Although I don't know if it's because of the Heart-Eating Lake or the River of the Dead, those who stay on the Elderly Wharf are prone to hallucinations of different degrees. At the beginning, they are often stunned and dazed, but if the subsequent development is more serious, they will gradually lose their souls."
"In order to prevent this, the best way is to keep talking, so you three must keep chatting..."
Sanger seriously reminded Luo Song and the other three to say.
Luo Song opened his mouth, but stopped talking.
Dingxiang frowned and remained silent.
Still, I felt wronged and said:
"We don't know how to chat!"
Xu Nan thought for a while and asked, "Just keep them in a high-intensity speaking state, right?"
Sanger looked at Xu Nan and nodded:
"Theory is this, there are actually other ways, but they are all just to maintain their mental state."
Xu Nan took out a magic wand and said happily:
"If you can't chat."
"Let him chat with you."
...
On the 5th of the Old Man's Wharf, how Luo Song, Ding Xiang and Xiao Liuyi chatted happily with the noisy magic wand is no longer the focus of Xu Nan's concern.
As the only non-staff member, he has his own job—in laying the way, he is a professional chat with four legends!
To put it more specifically, it is to patrol the Pier 1 to Pier 4 regularly, check the mental state of the four legends, and occasionally say a few words to them to make sure that these four people will not have hallucinations due to long-term solitude before the ferrymen come.
Sanger repeatedly emphasized the uniqueness of the Old Man's Wharf, which made Xu Nan dare not be careless.
He must ensure that the legend on each dock has had a chat with him at least once within two hours...
Well, that should be enough.
After the grouping was ready, Xu Nan first visited Ben Frank on Pier 2.
Because Sanger has the highest level, Xu Nan arranged the chat with him at the end, and he planned to patrol according to 23451.
Although Pier 5 has a noisy wand in charge, in theory, Xu Nan does not need to interfere in the past, but he is also afraid that the noisy wand will be too strong and will directly scold the other three. This will lead to a low-probability event where hallucinations appear faster.
As for Sanger, who made him higher?
To be continued...
