Chapter 1048 1030. Nether World
"This is."
After the last scream of the humanoid smoke dissipating, Lan frowned and rubbed his ears. The sound was not human movement.
“Is this some kind of demon spirit?”
Lan En murmured doubtfully.
He has seen a lot of monsters like this in the Magical Middle Ages and killed a lot of them.
They are mostly souls full of resentment and persistence, unwilling to go to the place where they should go after death.
But the resentment and persistence will basically twist the soul into a mindless monster. No matter what it was that it was attached to before death, it may be forgotten after turning into a demon spirit.
But the miserable green human-shaped smoke just now gave Lan En a different feeling.
That is a more evil and darker force than demon spirits.
Lan En looked at the only black dagger left on the ground, squatted down and cautiously stretched out his finger towards it.
Just before actual contact, just getting close to a certain distance, a deep cold feeling came from the fingertips.
That is not an ordinary physical feeling of cold.
“Be careful! Don’t touch it directly!”
Radagast held the staff in his arms, pointed at the dagger on the ground cautiously and spoke.
“That thing comes from the underworld! It’s not from the human world!”
Hetherworld?
Lan En slowly retracted his palm, stood up and stepped aside, letting professionals come up to handle it.
Radagast took out a piece of leather from his arms, and then dared to grab the sword through the leather.
“That is another dimension that is different from the real dimension. It is not a place that mortals should come into contact with. Something really big happened this time! Someone has involved the power of the nether world!”
The world has different faces when viewed from different angles.
As a person with [spiritual vision], Lan En can understand this.
In the Magical Middle Ages, if he wanted to see the world from the perspective of the four-element interface, the scene he would see would be very different from the world in the eyes of ordinary people.
The structure of the world of Arda may also be very different from that of the Magical Middle Ages.
Lan En doesn’t quite know what the ‘Nether World’ is.
But this does not prevent him from understanding all this with reason and thinking.
Because the enemies are in the ‘nether world’, even Arondette cannot really touch them and cause substantial damage?
Just this ability to "stay in the nether world" has restrained all ordinary attacks. Even Lan En can't hurt enemies in this form.
I don’t know if [Arden’s Seal] is useful, but it’s probably hopeless. Arden can forcibly transform demon spirits from incorporeal bodies into more vulnerable entities.
But is it useful against ‘enemies in another dimension’? Lan En feels that Arzu, who developed the Witcher Seal, may not have even studied this.
“So, is this evidence that the enemy of darkness has awakened? Can it convince others?”
Lan held Arondette in his hands and carefully looked around the dark and ferocious old castle while asking Radagast.
He just felt that the world was relaxed and leisurely enough, but he shouldn't start a war that would affect the entire world at this time.
“I, I’m not sure! But I know who to go to!”
Radagast wrapped the black dagger, quickly tied it with a leather rope, and then put it in his arms.
He panted, pulled Lan En and walked out.
At the same time, an extremely dense sound of flapping wings began to appear in the old castle, which was originally so quiet that it was deathly silent.
It’s those big bats!
“Let’s go! Let’s go! Let’s go find Gandalf!”
Because of fright and panic, Radagast staggered and ran in front.
Lan En quickly followed him, grabbed his collar and pulled him up.
The sloppy old wizard looked like a little chicken, holding his staff tightly in his arms and being lifted up in the air.
Just like a photo with the color inversion effect turned on, the moment the figure appeared, all the colors around him turned weird.
Only himself is still deep black.
He began to talk to the smoke figure he had resurrected.
The language is awkward and barbaric, and just speaking it can make the listener feel depressed.
This is black language.
The language created by Sauron, the Lord of Darkness.
‘They have run away, my lord. Move quickly. ’
The decayed skull bowed deeply.
"That doesn't matter. Radagast is stupid and shallow, always has been, no surprises. But the guy who followed him."
“It’s so strange. That body and that sword.”
"The sword has the shadow of the high elf's technique, but it can't even enter the netherworld or affect it. I don't remember that sword."
“He has a power in him that I have never seen before.”
The black shadow fluctuates, and every slight fluctuation can cause confusion in the surrounding scene.
“.No, it doesn’t matter. Now, the most important thing is to form an alliance with the dragon.”
“Go and convince it! Go and seduce it!”
"Even if the dragon refuses to surrender, don't get in the way!"
The withered skull is lowered deeply to express compliance and obedience.
—
With Radagast leading the way, it is easy to get out of the Mirk Forest.
The big rabbits pulling his cart had very strong legs. Lan En even suspected that these rabbits were as strong as magical medieval monsters.
They had no time to talk and headed westward under the leadership of the birds.
He broke out of the dark forest and then crossed the misty mountains on a relatively gentle path.
Although the trail is very convenient, it is too secretive and winding, and it is impossible to walk it without someone to guide you.
So Radagast, who couldn't leave Mirkwood because of his mission, simply didn't even tell Lan En.
Little birds were flying in front. They had been with Radagast for a long time, and they all seemed to have humanized wisdom like the creatures around Rothgar Castle.
Lan En is not sure how they find people, but they are indeed guiding the direction.
“Keep going? Got it! We’ll keep up!”
Radagast said to the bird as he controlled the rabbit sled.
After leaving the chaotic environment of Mirk Forest due to magic, Qilin and Fluffy Ball's moods improved significantly.
They crossed the wasteland at the foot of the mountains and followed the lead of the birds straight into a small forest.
The Kirin became active and didn’t want to follow the rabbit sled anymore.
So it started playing tricks. The rabbit sled needed to make twists and turns among the exposed rocks, allowing the lead rabbit to find a suitable route.
But Qilin can easily jump onto those rocks using only the power of its feet.
The general direction was correct and we quickly ran ahead of Radagast.
In the wind, a slightly noisy sound of footsteps loomed, and the noise was due to their large number.
In the barren mountains and ridges, this group of people should be the only ones within a few kilometers.
After determining the target, Qilin jumped gracefully and lightly and ran towards the direction of the group of people.
Lan En also wanted to let Qilin relax, so he didn't pay much attention to it from the beginning.
After all, if you are looking for someone, can’t you just find it?
But when Qilin knocked away the bush without a care and stuck his head out.
“What the **** is this?”
"monster!"
There was a "whoosh", and before Lan En on horseback could rush out of the bushes, a sharp sound broke through the air and shot straight towards Qilin's face!
