Chapter 1174: Entering the dark castle
"This is?!"
Looking at the quaint black castle upside down on the roof of the cave in front of her, even Hong Ye couldn't help but open her eyes wide, with a look of surprise on her sassy face.
The castle was unbelievably huge, which was evident from the fact that she was able to soar within it even in her dragon form.
"I have to say, it is indeed a strange and shocking scene."
Catherine raised her white face, stared at the huge building high on the top of the cave, and said: "Your Highness, we have already checked it, and there is no trace of illusion in it. This black castle is real. .
After Catherine said that, Xiao Huan flapped her transparent wings and landed on Lei Xiao's shoulders again. She nodded and said, "Yes, Lord, this big guy is the real deal."
"But how could such a majestic giant castle be built on the top of a cave?"
Old White, who had just arrived, had a face full of shock and blurted out involuntarily.
"Is it possible that the opponent is trying to create a conspiracy or some kind of conspiracy?"
Louise's little face was full of confusion and confusion, and her eyebrows frowned slightly.
"From the architectural style, this dark castle is completely consistent with the simple buildings in the previous ruins. It should also be part of the ancient human kingdom."
Lei Xiao held his chin with one hand, his scrutinizing eyes constantly wandering back and forth on the towering cave roof, and said thoughtfully: "And you see, it is not only an isolated and huge castle, but also a series of supporting facilities."
Because the giant castle was too conspicuous, everyone noticed it after Lei Xiao's reminder.
In addition to the huge main body of the castle, there are also other supporting facilities such as courtyards of different styles, fountains, sculptures, and even wide and flat roads around it.
Although the flower beds and lawns in the courtyard are bare and the fountain has long since dried up, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the layout here is extremely decent and the artistic level is extremely high. It can even compete with races such as the elves and winged humans. .
Looking up, even though there is dust everywhere, it still reveals a majestic aura that dominates the world.
"Compared with this, the royal castle of my Kingdom of Grim is simply a clumsy toy."
White's beard-covered mouth opened slightly, and he blurted out: "Is this the royal castle of the ancient kingdom?"
"It is very likely that we have already passed the street area, residential area, and square area, and it is time to reach the residence of the royal family."
Lei Xiao gently rubbed his chin and responded: "Although it has gone through a long time, it is not difficult to see that this was once an extremely prosperous human nation."
"Your Highness, how could such a majestic giant castle and surrounding supporting facilities be built on the top of a cave?"
White hesitated for a moment, and then couldn't help but ask the question just now.
"General White, do you know about the "dislocation thing"? "
Lei Xiao slowly withdrew his gaze and looked at the old veteran beside him.
"Your Highness, are you talking about those ancient ruins that have appeared inexplicably elsewhere?"
White was stunned and immediately reacted: "Is this also a "misplaced thing"? "
"That's the only explanation."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and responded: "Judging from the layout of the entire underground city, the other parts are not "dislocations." I am afraid that only this giant castle has been "dislocated," and it is probably only from the ground." "Dislocation" reached the top of the cave. "
"That makes sense."
Louise nodded her head in agreement and said thoughtfully: "This is the first time for this young lady to see such a "dislocated thing" so close. "
After saying that, Louise's little face showed a trace of curiosity again, and she asked doubtfully: "Speaking of which, how are these "displaced things" formed? "
"This is the unsolved mystery of the blank era. At least we can't get a glimpse of the truth yet."
Lei Xiao gathered his thoughts and said: "Okay, this place was once controlled by the opponent. I'm afraid there is not much value for exploration anymore. The top priority now is still to find the traces of the 30 summoned legions and the exit of the dungeon. Let's start now. .
Hearing the sound, everyone nodded in agreement, immediately dispersed, and took action separately.
However, as time passed by, even though Lei Xiao and others carefully searched this vast area and even used manifestation scrolls, they still found no trace of any new passage or exit.
After the search was fruitless, everyone had to gather around Lei Xiao again, with helpless expressions on their faces.
"Lord, I'm afraid this, like the arena area at the beginning, is the end of the dungeon."
Wu held up his chest and saluted, and reported to Lei Xiaoxun: "In other words, we have reached a dead end."
After hearing Wu's words, everyone shook their heads helplessly.
This undoubtedly means that we are obviously trapped in this underground city deep underground.
For a time, an extremely heavy atmosphere quietly spread among the team.
You know, that mysterious existence has officially implemented the so-called "sacred plan".
This undoubtedly shows that the time left for us to stop our opponent is extremely limited.
Under this extremely urgent situation, if we are trapped here all the time, the result will be simply unimaginable.
No one knows what will happen once the other party successfully completes the plan.
But what is certain is that judging from the other party's desperate and crazy methods, the human world will inevitably experience a huge catastrophe that has never been seen since the blank era.
"That abominable Gusta must have closed all the magic circles when he left, and deliberately trapped us here!"
White clenched his fists and said with sadness on his face: "Not only did they take away the residents of the royal capital, they also took away our hope of escaping!"
After White said this, several other generals of Grim also lowered their heads with gritted teeth but helpless expressions.
"It's far from time to give up."
Lei Xiao's calm voice echoed in everyone's ears: "Maybe hope still exists in this huge underground city."
"But the residential area and the street area alone can easily accommodate thousands of legions. Our number is extremely limited, so where should we start the search?"
Louise's little face was filled with a crazy look, and she said feebly: "You can't search house by house, right? Even if you find it in the end, I'm afraid it will be too late."
"Don't worry, Miss Louise, don't forget there is a big guy above us."
Lei Xiao tried his best to squeeze out a smile. Although he was not sure in his heart, he still said: "Since this is the castle of the royal family, it is naturally also the management center of this city. Maybe the way to leave is in it. It seems that this Now we have to explore this upside-down castle."
After hearing Lei Xiao's words, everyone who was originally in a low mood regained a glimmer of hope and nodded excitedly.
"But the black castle is at the top of the cave, at least several hundred meters high. How are we going to get up there?"
White looked up at the giant black silhouette and swallowed involuntarily.
At such a height, let alone physical powerhouses like them, it is probably difficult for even ordinary fifth-level magic powerhouses to reach it.
Among the entire team, only Hongye, Catherine and Louise appeared to be at ease.
Needless to say, Hong Ye, who is a dragon, also has a body that is different from ordinary people when she transforms into a human form. Catherine and Louise both possess the special physical blessings of the vampires, so it is naturally easy for them to do so.
"Don't worry, I have a way."
Lei Xiao smiled faintly, turned his palm up slightly, and a pile of black and purple scrolls emerged.
As soon as these scrolls appeared, they were not piled on Lei Xiao's palm, but all suspended in mid-air, which was quite magical.
"This is an extremely rare gravity magic scroll?!"
White was stunned for a moment, and then quickly reacted.
"That's right, there is a special spell called "Gravity Walking" sealed here, which allows us to walk on any flat surface like a gecko, let alone flying over the walls, even if we turn the world upside down. "
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and introduced: "With the blessing of this special spell, the upside-down castle is naturally no different from a normal castle."
"I didn't expect that His Highness the Prince could even produce such a magical magic scroll."
White's old face was full of surprise, and he asked cautiously: "But it must be very expensive, right?"
"It doesn't matter, it's just an ordinary fifth-level scroll, no big deal."
Lei Xiao smiled lightly while distributing the scrolls.
This magic scroll was presented by Eckhart not long ago. It came from one of the secret treasures collected in the Green Kingdom. However, after being upgraded quantitatively, it naturally gave Lei Xiao the capital to use it at will.
As one after another strange black and purple magic light flashed past, after feeling the lightness of their bodies, Lei Xiao and his group, who had been blessed with the "Gravity Walk" spell, flew out one after another, heading straight towards the Upside Down Castle. Go quickly.
When the strong wind stirred up by the rapid movement subsided, when the group stepped onto the ground where the black and simple castle was located, everything looked the same as normal.
"From an ordinary perspective, this giant castle is still extremely majestic and spectacular."
Catherine's starry eyes flickered as she looked at the tall black building outline in front of her, and couldn't help but blurt out: "I'm afraid there are no huge buildings of this size on the ground today, right?"
"Not necessarily, maybe in the near future, a castle of this size will still appear."
Lei Xiao smiled lightly and took his own steps.
What Lei Xiao was referring to was naturally his lord's mansion.
Although the lord's mansion has not been upgraded for some time because rare building resources have not been found.
But Lei Xiao believes that as long as he can overcome this difficulty, everything will surely reach a higher level.
After that, Lei Xiao gathered his thoughts, nodded to everyone and said, "Let's move on."
Passing through the mottled courtyard ruins exuding an ancient and vicissitudes of atmosphere, the group soon arrived at the gate of the black and simple castle.
I saw that the outer gate of the castle was half hanging, and the inner metal double door had a small gap.
Although this small gap seems insignificant to this giant castle, for a relatively small group of people, it is enough for two or three people to pass side by side.
"Lord, let your subordinates and others explore the way."
Wu, Huzhang and Hongye stood in front of Lei Xiao, and the other three stone elves followed closely behind. Only Jiang Lei stood by Lei Xiao's side, ready to cast teleportation spells at any time.
As for Louise, she was also eager to stand on the front line, while Catherine and White were in the back row of the team.
"Use caution first."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and took another step.
With more than a dozen magic light **** passing through the door first, the group carefully stepped into this dark castle that exuded antiquity and mystery.
Pairs of leather boots stirred up thick dust, and the ethereal footsteps echoed in the empty castle hall. Under the reflection of the magic light ball, Lei Xiao looked around and couldn't help but exclaimed.
This is at least a vast hall the size of a football field, no different from a small square.
In the center of the hall, a large fountain with the theme of a group of wolves jumping on the top of a mountain is extremely eye-catching.
Although the entire fountain has lost its color over time and looks mottled.
But it was still possible to distinguish the white and red fluffy hair on the wolf, as well as the gray and earthy yellow on the mountain top.
"Lord, that should be the Ice and Fire Coyote~www.mtlnovel.com~ It is a kind of magical beast that has become extinct in the blank era."
Hong Ye, who was already standing next to the fountain, observed for a moment and introduced to Lei Xiao: "It seems that this is the monster on the heraldry of this ancient kingdom."
"So, we did see a lot of wolf-shaped emblems along the way."
Louise also walked around the fountain and said thoughtfully: "But it seems that there are not only wolf-shaped coats of arms here."
After that, Louise pointed to two other smaller fountains not far away and said, "There are two other fountains there, and they look like the monsters depicted in the coat of arms."
Looking in the direction of Louise's finger, Lei Xiao noticed further.
Just as the other party said, the other two fountains are a griffon with a dragon's claw in its mouth, and a pelican also with a dragon's claw in its mouth.
Looking at the two small fountains surrounding the wolf, Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes involuntarily.
He always felt that he had seen the patterns painted on these two fountains somewhere before, but he couldn't remember them for a while.
Just when Lei Xiao was trying his best to search for clues in his mind, the extremely vast castle hall suddenly began to tremble violently and inexplicably.
Immediately afterwards, an extremely primitive energy wave suddenly surged out, stirring up dust all over the sky.
Before anyone could react, an extremely excited old voice suddenly reached the ears of Lei Xiao and his group: "Hahaha, my son, you are finally back!"
