Broad World - Chapter 318
Chapter 316 D’Annisburg 8
Henry didn’t know what this change meant, but he could feel that his previous mentality of not caring about anything was gradually changing, and his emotional fluctuations were getting bigger and bigger. He knew very well that this state was dangerous, like a flood peak hitting a dam. Once a string is broken, it will inevitably lead to catastrophic consequences.
Perhaps as the man in the mirror said in his dream, his soul is undergoing a certain transformation, and even the memory of forgotten before has begun to loosen. Especially the feeling of being in the endless universe, I feel very small and sad. Only by repeated self-affirmation can I always keep my consciousness from dissipating.
Henry has thought many times, what is his soul? Is it a transparent and colorless consciousness like human beings in this world? Or is it the brain wave induction or bio-electromagnetic phenomenon mentioned on the earth? Did his consciousness invade the soul, or did he enter the body together with the soul?
It’s a pity that I can’t find any answers to all questions. Experiments have shown that his soul is different from any living body in this world. No matter it is used by any method, even “wish-making technique”, there is no way to cut even a tiny bit of fragment from the soul. It seems that there is some kind of power attached to it, and no power can detect the situation inside.
After the experiment, Henry thought that all these secrets might be hidden forever, perhaps never solved, when suddenly a strange dream solved the secret part. Although there will be great risks in continuing to explore, he does not intend to back down. Maybe a lot of people are talking about letting go of the past and looking at the future, but that’s all bullshit, and there is no one that can really be done.
“Take all this as an opportunity to rediscover yourself.” Henry said to himself secretly. He has made up his mind, no matter what kind of memory he has gained from the world in the mirror. That is an indispensable part of oneself. Only by embracing it and accepting it can a person become complete.
Imoen was the only one who didn’t care too much about Henry’s changes, because she was lying on the ground and vying with the lock on the door. This lock is much more complicated than any one I have encountered before, and judging from the silver pattern above, it should be an old antique three to four hundred years ago. Although Naria said several times that he could just smash and break in. But they were all rejected by the girl. In her words, this is a major challenge in life. If you shrink back, what should you do if you encounter difficulties in the future?
As soon as this sentence was said, everyone could only stand and watch helplessly. After ten minutes of hard work, the ancient lock finally made a “click” sound. The door was opened. Imoen stood up and raised his fist excitedly and announced loudly to everyone: “Look! This difficulty is nothing to me. How about it, isn’t it great?”
Henry smiled, took out the portal key obtained in the underground laboratory of Joan Irenekas from his pocket and put it in the girl’s hand. “Yes, this is as a reward for completing the important challenges of your life.”
“Wow! Isn’t this that beautiful key? It’s great, but I want to come.” A surprised expression appeared on Imoen’s face. At first, she was fascinated by this key woven with mithril silk. Especially the black pearl at the top, it must be worth a lot of money if you get it on the market.
“It’s fine if you like it. Let’s go, let’s see what good things are hidden inside.” He said that Henry took the lead and walked in.
Since there are no oil lamps and torches, the room can be said to be invisible. Just when he was about to release a “lighting technique” illumination, suddenly, a cold light flashed directly in front of him, and a sharp two-handed giant sword fell from the sky. It slashed fiercely on the body that had been blessed with “Iron Skin Surgery”, wiping out a string of golden sparks.
Xina, who followed from behind, accurately positioned the attacker with her night vision ability, and then rushed up without hesitation, using the huge power of the half-dragon to slam the opponent out. Henry hurriedly released a “lighting technique”, and now everyone saw the true face of the sneak attacker, a fully armed human warrior. But his spirit is obviously a little abnormal, not only his eyes are dull, but he is still muttering something in a low voice.
Seeing that the human warrior quickly got up from the ground, he first glared at everyone. Then shouted loudly: “For the glory of my new master, I will kill you all. That’s it, kill all! Kill! Kill!”
Naria obviously recognized this person and hurriedly stopped the teammate who was about to launch an attack. “Glax? Is that you? Oh, no! Don’t rush to do it yet. He is one of my father’s most loyal guards. This must be controlled by some kind of charm magic.”
“Don’t worry, I think a “dispel magic” can restore him to normal.” As he said, Henry released the long-prepared spell forward. With his current spellcasting level, it doesn’t take much effort to disarm the magic cast by the low-level mage.
A white light flashed, and Glex, who was rushing with his weapon, stopped suddenly, and his sluggish eyes began to refocus, and after a few seconds they returned to normal. He shook his head vigorously first, then glanced at everyone in surprise. “Uh…what…what? What happened here?”
“Thank God, you finally regained consciousness. Don’t you remember? You are charmed by spells. I think it should be those trolls…”
Before Naria’s words were finished, the guard with a beard and face immediately recalled. “Yes…Yes, I remember now. That **** troll leader…Torgael, I think it should be called that name. It ordered the snake-man mage under it to cast a spell, and then I I don’t remember anything. In addition, Sir Deannis always wanted to recast his yoke before he was captured. I happened to have a lock here.”
Hearing what happened to the soldier, Henry couldn’t help but sympathize with him. Obviously, this is another guy who was played with by the applause of the mage. Normally, the memory after being charmed will not disappear, but the person in front of him is obviously not. The most likely thing is that the caster didn’t want to reveal the secret, so he falsified part of his memory by the way. As far as he knows, this kind of practice will cause certain damage to the brain, from the slightest to becoming forgetful, the severe one directly becomes an idiot.
Glex talked with Naria for a few minutes, then handed the acid-attributed shackles to the other party, and then staggered towards the stairs. He stood at the door of the room and hesitated for a long time, and finally found the right direction. This behavior once again proved the speculation just now, it seems that this person’s brain damage is quite serious.
But none of this has much to do with Henry. He glanced at the more than 20,000 experience points he had just received, and a smile appeared on his face. Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner according to the plan. If Balagas’ “Flying Flame” can also show up on time after killing all the monsters here, it would be great.
Now all the monsters on the entire second floor have been eliminated, and everyone quickly returned to the room leading to the secret road to the dungeon. Naria moved a brick in the corner, and a stone door was opened. She pointed to the dark and cold passage inside and said, “It’s here. I only remember my father mentioning it once, but I don’t know what it looks like.”
Imoen couldn’t wait to get in, and ran out a minute later. She asked with a puzzled face: “Are you sure you didn’t go wrong? It’s a dead end at all.”
“How is it possible! I remember it clearly, it must be right here.”
Seeing Naria’s face full of determination, Imoen let out a scream. “Ah! Damn, it’s a disaster. It’s dirty and smelly, and there are many spiders and mice. If you look for secret passages in such an environment, you might as well just kill me.”
Hina frowned and asked: “The environment inside is really as bad as you said?”
“Trust me, it’s unbelievable. I even saw poisonous spiders with big fists and mice bigger than cats just now.”
Imoen’s words made all the women shiver, and then they all stared at the only male in the team. Henry shrugged his shoulders indifferently, stared at the “lighting technique” and walked in. After all, he is still a druid, there is no need to be afraid of these spiders and mice. As soon as I entered the passage, I saw an adult with a big fist and a red-patterned spider on his belly. This is nothing but the famous “Black Widow”.
Henry couldn’t help shivering, and quickly walked a few steps away from this arthropod, which is deadly enough to just one bite. Near the end of the corridor, he found a mouse bigger than a cat. After simple communication, the mouse told him that there were two secret doors. One of them is on the west wall, and the other is at the end of the corridor. But the mechanism is hidden on the ceiling full of “black widows”. If you want to touch it, you must solve these big problems first.
He glanced at the dense spiders above his head, and Henry cried out unlucky secretly. He first tried to touch with the mage’s hand and found that he didn’t move at all. Perhaps because of too long time, the mechanism has been stuck with too much dust and spider webs. There was really no other way, so I had to cast a fourth-level magic “Spider Breeding Technique”.
I saw two spider eggs appeared out of thin air in front of Henry. Nourished by the power of magic, they quickly grew bigger and broke out of their shells in a few seconds. Two sword spiders with black and white patterns on their stomachs were hatched.
“Go! Kill all the spiders above” Henry gave the attack order without hesitation.
The two sword spiders quickly climbed up the ceiling along the wall and attacked those of their kind who were countless times smaller than themselves. Although “Black Widow” is very toxic, its mouthparts are too small to pose too much threat to sword spiders. The one-sided killing lasted only five minutes, and nearly a hundred “black widows” were all dead.
