Chapter 390 Wilderness Underground
Below the cave.
Colin has successfully controlled the huge purple-black meat mountain at this moment.
The remnants of the Wood family under Bone Mountain charged at him angrily, but they were all knocked to the ground in the blink of an eye.
"O'Neill, come down and help me guard them, and rescue those people in the iron cage by the way." Colin shook his arm lightly and raised his head and shouted.
"...Yes." O'Neill on the cave was stunned, and turned around after a while.
The white mountain of bones, the dirty iron cage, the reactions of Elder Dennis and those great knights, and Colin's words... All these made him have a terrible association in his heart—
‘If the mountain of purple and black meat is indeed Alec’s ancestor, did he end up like this because he ate crypt plants like himself? '
O'Neill touched his left chest subconsciously, as if he could feel the strange touch of the purple-black skin through the hard armor.
‘But, why did Alec’s ancestors eat people? ’ But soon, new doubts and…fears arose in O’Neill’s heart.
O'Neill's throat moved slightly, suppressing the nausea surging in his stomach, and walked down the cave while thinking silently.
…
"Have you degenerated into a beast and lost the ability to communicate?"
After knocking the remnants of the Wood family to the ground, Colin turned around and came to Alec who was under control, and asked a question tentatively.
This huge mountain of purple and black flesh has a strong body, but it is extremely weak in spirit.
Although it is already equivalent to an ordinary junior wizard apprentice in comparison, when combined with a body that is close to the first level, or even far beyond the first level in some respects, there is a sense of incongruity and deformity.
It looks like the meat ball grass that I saw not long ago, with hair-like slender rhizomes hanging from fist-sized knots.
"Roar!"
Zihei Roshan didn't respond to his words, and was still trying to struggle, and his eyes were full of red when he was trapped in layers of flesh waves.
Chick!
The next moment, the invisible breath spread from the huge body again like a tide.
The remnants of the Wood family who had been knocked to the ground seemed to have been beaten to the ground. Although most of them could no longer stand, even if they were crawling, they continued to crawl towards Colin.
"Hmph!" Colin snorted coldly!
Spiritual power quickly spread to the surroundings with the sound, instantly clearing away the bewitching aura floating in the air.
He has long felt that there seems to be something wrong with those Wood family members—they are too fanatical, as if they are under some kind of mind control.
And the aura exuded by Alec just now undoubtedly proved his conjecture.
To Colin's surprise, he couldn't dispel it, and couldn't even detect the traces of being bewitched on the Wood family.
And this ability to bewitch seems somewhat familiar...
It is not only spiritual, but more like physical body...or the ability produced by the combination of blood and spirit.
Kind of like a... knight halo?
Colin was taken aback for a moment, surprised by his deduction.
But thinking carefully, it seems that this reasoning is also very reasonable.
After all, the Zihei Roshan in front of him should be... barely a knight?
At this moment, Colin suddenly raised his head.
Roshan in front of him seemed to have some kind of change, looking through the purple and black flesh folds, he found Alec's eyes with difficulty.
Colin suddenly discovered that the red eyes had turned into a slightly cloudy dark green before he knew it.
Even the struggling movements gradually stopped, this purple-black meat mountain was exceptionally calm at the moment.
"Alec Wood?" Colin asked tentatively.
Zihei Roshan was silent for a moment, and finally reacted, saying in a hoarse voice: "After all, this day has come..."
Compared with the crazy and terrifying voice before, Alec's tone at this moment sounds more like a tired old man, vicissitudes and weakness.
For more than a hundred years, Alec has been hiding in dark underground caves. Although he is alive and growing stronger, the loneliness and fear in his heart are growing like weeds.
If it weren't for the existence of descendants, he would almost forget his human identity.
Especially when the crazy time takes up more and more.
"If you don't want to suffer anymore, you'd better tell me everything you know."
Colin didn't feel the slightest fluctuation in his heart, he just asked in a cold voice.
He didn't deliberately emphasize it, but it doesn't mean he didn't see the white bone mountain not far away, and those men and women who were imprisoned in cages like cattle and sheep waiting to be slaughtered.
Whether it is Alec in front of you or the members of the Wood family, as long as they know the insider, they deserve to die!
Alec seemed to understand this, but kept silent.
"Sooner or later you will speak."
Colin was not annoyed, he said something in a cold voice, and then waved lightly.
He just suffers from the fact that he has never learned interrogation witchcraft. He will go back to Neustadt in a few days to learn some interrogation witchcraft.
Light blue cold air gushed out like a fountain, and within a few breaths, the entire Alec was frozen.
On the surface, it seems to release frost witchcraft, but in fact it is the shadow of frost behind the scenes.
In the battle just now, Colin discovered that, unlike his vulnerable strength, Zihei Roshan's vitality was extraordinarily tenacious, almost catching up with him who possessed the talent of strength, and even seemed to be even stronger in some aspects one chip.
It can only be said that Alec's huge body is not for nothing.
And it is easy to know by simple calculation, the purple-black meat ball in front of you has survived for more than three hundred years.
You must know that there are many first-order wizards who can only live for three hundred years at most!
So the mere freezing can only temporarily trap Alec, and if you want to kill him, you may not be able to do it.
"How are they doing?"
After confirming that Alec couldn't break free from the ice crystal, Colin turned and came to O'Neills.
O’Neill has opened all the cages, and the remnants of the Wood family have been bound up by him with their clothes.
At the moment O'Neill is taking care of a thin girl.
"Not very good." O'Neill glanced at Colin with a downcast expression.
The rest of the cages were still alive—O’Neill found that although each cage was simple and dirty, they had enough drinking water and food during the rescue.
But it's just alive.
These survivors basically look the same—the face is numb, and the eyes are dull and dull.
O'Neill tried to call out Martina's name, but she hardly responded, only moving when she heard drinking water.
"Send them out first." Colin sighed.
Not to mention ordinary people, even if an apprentice wizard is imprisoned in this kind of place, it may be difficult to guarantee his normal mind.
In addition to the environmental factors of the crypt, the influence of the purple-black meat mountain like a knight's halo is also one of the important reasons.
Thinking of this, Colin suddenly noticed something. He carefully observed Martina in front of him.
The latter stayed in the burrow for so long, but there was no sign of catacomb disease on his body... This is obviously also the influence of Alec.
There are many special features on this purple-black meat mountain.
By the way, there is O'Neill... Colin suddenly thought:
"Don't you get burrow sickness, O'Neill?"
When he came in, he forgot to distribute the anti-magic potion to O'Neill, and the latter didn't mention it either, showing a look of indifference to the pollution of the crypt.
O'Neill shook his head: "I still think it will, but if you only stay for a day or two, there won't be any discomfort."
Colin nodded lightly. Just a day or two is amazing. You must know that as a second-level wizard, he feels that the longest time he can stay in the burrow without being affected is about a day or two. .
The purple-black pollution seems to be worth studying.
"grown ups…"
"Huh?" Colin turned his head to look.
O'Neill was half-embracing Martina, and was staring blankly at the purple-black meat mountain in the distance.
"Master Colin, why don't you kill me now." After a while, he suddenly turned his head and said, "I don't want to become that kind of monster... let alone be like it... eat people."
O'Neill's tone was calm, but from his slightly trembling fingers, it could be seen that he was not at peace.
"I've already answered your question, O'Neill." Colin paused and said calmly.
Not everyone can make such a choice in the face of death. The disgusting mountain of purple and black flesh behind him is the best example.
This illegitimate son from a humble background has a character like gold.
"You are not the same as your ancestors, let's go." Colin finally said:
"Maybe I can help you get back to the original state after researching it clearly later."
O'Neill was silent for a long time. He stared at the blank face of Martina in his arms, finally got up slowly, and followed Colin.
…
In the next three days, Colin completely put an end to the Wood family incident.
Wood family, he was accused of killing his servant.
Then under his guidance, Into City Lord accidentally discovered that the Wood family seemed to be hiding some deep sin.
Maids, slaves, grooms, and even married foreign wives or husbands...their frequency of accidental death is too high.
After some in-depth and careful investigation.
A death list that is still incomplete, but already extremely large, made the master of Into, with a pale face, hang most of the members of the Wood family overnight.
The only ones left were children under the age of six, and they were all reduced to slaves and scattered to various parts of the kingdom.
The Wood family, one of the best in the city of Into, was suddenly destroyed in this way. Under the deliberate suppression of the Lord of Into, their destruction did not even cause any waves.
Colin did not pay attention to the news of the final trial. The members of the Wood family he left behind have all been confirmed by him as uninformed.
As for the remaining members of the Wood family, he and Zihei Roshan have been quietly transported to the wilderness on the south side of the burrow.
Colin has opened up a huge underground space here. For this reason, he even ran back to Neustadt city to upgrade the silver secret room, and spent another 200,000 magic stones.
Of course, the 200,000 yuan also includes the cost of learning new interrogation witchcraft.
Alec has just moved underground in the wilderness, and has not had time to thaw out.
But according to the information pried out from the remnants of the Wood family by interrogation witchcraft, Colin finally figured out all the details.
First of all, the Zihei Roshan is indeed, as he thought, the first ancestor of the Wood family, Alec.
In addition to the extraordinarily large body and unique bewitching ability, Colin also learned about a new special ability of Alec from them—planting a special seed of life for the descendants of the same blood.
This special seed of life can guarantee that the person who is seeded can at least cultivate to a high-level knight, and has at least half the chance of breaking through to a great knight.
The only disadvantage is that Alec needs at least a few years to plant a seed of life.
In addition, Colin also asked about the iron cage.
But the people in the Wood family didn't seem to know why Alec needed to eat people, they just said that it was Alec's request.
'It seems... More information still has to be obtained from Alec. '
In the bright silver underground hall, Colin stood in front of the purple-black meat mountain, twisting his neck in relaxation.
He was about to thaw Alec.
