597 The Cell in the Basement(1/2)
In the dark passage, Sheen was slowly moving forward unknownly, and he was heading towards the deepest part of this space.
This time, no one led him, and he could not use the previous search method to confirm other people's location and terrain.
Here, once Sheen blatantly releases magic power, he will definitely be noticed by the high priest.
Therefore, Xien can only rely on the information perceived by the perception of [External Destiny] to find his destination.
Direction of airflow.
Magic texture.
Vibration formed by various movements and stillness.
A subtle strange sound.
Such existences became the basis for Xien to collect information in this space at this moment, making him think while maintaining the hidden state under [Lijue Destiny], following the passage and moving forward. Even though he was slow, he was moving forward unswervingly.
Along the way, Sheen did not encounter any patrolling knights.
Perhaps because this area is a relatively important area and no idle people are allowed to get close to it, Sheen did not find any signs of patrol.
But no one patrolling does not mean that there is no "other existence" guarding here.
Sheen stopped at the end of a passage, looked at the scene in front of him, and was speechless for several seconds.
“———”
A rather terrifying pressure filled here.
The source of pressure is a giant lying on the ground.
Sheen is quite familiar with that giant.
Because, there is one in his family.
That's...
"dragon...?"
The huge creature lying at the end of the passage is a dragon.
No, to be more precise, it is not a living dragon, but a "dead dragon".
It has a pair of tattered dragon wings. The membrane on the dragon wings looks broken, and the flesh and blood have disappeared a lot, exposing the bones to the air, which is very obvious.
Its whole body has rotted, at least more than half of it. Not only can it not see any complete place, but its internal organs disappear without a trace. Only a very huge magic crystal is embedded in its chest, as if it is replacing the heart, emitting magical light while rotating.
This cannot be called a dragon at all, it can only be said to be a dragon corpse.
But the dragon corpse has obviously been transformed, and its body emits a very strong dead aura. At this moment, it is also lying there as if it is dozing off. There are miserable green light spots in the eyes that have lost their eyes instead of their pupils flashing, telling Sheen that this corpse dragon can move.
There is no doubt...
"Is this a dragon resurrected and manipulated by the high priest's necromancer magic?"
Its level is as high as 91, and it actually has legendary combat power.
"A small secret base, there are two legendary existences that appear in it..."
When did legendary existences become so valuable?
Of course, the corpse dragon in front of me is the relative of the necromancer. Strictly speaking, it is a magic product and cannot be regarded as a complete legendary existence.
But even so, the opponent's legendary combat power is beyond doubt.
"It is worthy of being the rumored necromancer magic, and has created the forbidden power of millions of necromancers."
The magic of being able to manipulate the dead and subvert death is indeed amazing.
However, compared to this corpse dragon, Xien cares more about the situation behind the other party.
It was an entrance and exit with steps extending downwards.
"In other words, is it the basement they just mentioned?"
Sheen confirmed this.
"It seems that it is indeed a place that is not allowed to enter casually."
The legendary corpse dragon guarded the entrance, and even lay in front of the entrance, completely blocking the entrance.
In this case, no one can think of going in unless the other party gets up and moves.
fortunately...
"It's just that it's useless for me."
Xien visually measured the direction and distance, so he teleported directly and appeared at the entrance.
He just passed the legendary gatekeeper corpse dragon and entered here.
"Go down."
After coming in, Xien did not hesitate. He glanced at the corpse dragon lying there like a nap behind him, and walked down the steps with a swagger.
I believe that no one would believe that someone could sneak into this level so silently, and it would not attract anyone's attention, right?
Even the highest level of assassination comes, I am afraid that it will not be able to do this.
According to Heen's estimate, except for himself, the only space magician who could sneak into this level silently.
Of course, Nadura, the goddess of nature, can do it too.
The person's body was naturally a bit foul. If it were her, she might have investigated this place more calmly than Sheen.
Xien went all the way down, and opened up the perception ability of [External Destiny] and observed the surroundings to avoid any traps.
But there seems to be no trap here.
"I think that relying on that legendary corpse dragon is enough to block everything, right?"
That's what Sheen thinks.
When Sheen finished the steps and finally entered the basement, he realized that his thoughts just now were too naive.
Although there are no traps here, it is definitely not just a corpse dragon guarding it.
"Huh..."
"Huh..."
I saw that in the dim basement, there were sounds of screams like wild beasts roaring.
Figures slowly wandered here, like walking zombies, very terrifying.
But it wasn't wrong to say that they were walking dead.
The figures wandering here are not humans at all, but mummies.
That's the dead.
That's the dead.
Like the corpse dragon outside, one by one, the corpse ghosts with rotten bodies, green eyes, ragged clothes and hideous faces wandered here.
“…Is I coming to the zombie world?”
Sheen felt a physical discomfort.
Now, he understood a little why Animal was so angry that he came directly and annihilated the mighty and unleashed the unruly magician.
It is not only because the other party is doing something that is harmful to the world, but also because the behavior of using the dead body is too blasphemous life, which will make the goddess of life feel angry and understandable.
Sheen even saw two seemingly familiar figures in it.
"Those aren't those two people who led the First Knights in Duke Stream?"
Sheen stared in one of the directions.
There, two figures were shaking and imprinting into Sheen's eyes.
Sheen recognized the two.
At that time in Cosmos, before evil spirits erupted and were about to enter the Temple of Darkness, Sheen had met them.
"Yuri Strinm..."
He is the head of the Knights under the Duke of Stream, Barry's younger brother, Limjo's uncle, a strong man with a level of 88 and not far from the legendary level.
In the Cosmos incident, he disappeared along with Limjo.
Unexpectedly, when he saw him again, he had turned into a corpse ghoul and became one of the many dead, wandering here.
Next to him, the leader of the First Knights who had been quite targeting Sheen at the time was also there.
"Remember it's called Sona?"
The leader of the First Knights was Yuri's brother-in-law, and he was also of eighty level.
But now, he has also become one of many corpse ghouls and one of the watchdogs in this basement.
Even though Limjo was still outside, he even held great power, the two masters of the Strem family who disappeared with him fell into this field, even Shian felt a little sympathetic.
"I advised you not to enter the evil land, but unfortunately you didn't listen, so you couldn't blame others."
