Chapter 414: Lost in the Demon Realm (6)
Evening. Athens.
Halfway through it was agreed that we would meet at noon, but after waiting for most of the day, all Bedivere waited for in front of the patriarch’s house was the elephant-man herbalist Puff.
“Where’s Al?” Brady asked as soon as he came up.
Pavle shook his head, he didn’t know either.
He only said what he knew: “There are clues. Kaos will be back tomorrow.”
“Oh, okay.” Bedivere crossed his arms, thinking, “The three Hackett brothers seem to be avoiding us on purpose. If the time is right [to ambush] them, at least a few words can be met. If so.——There is no way, let’s rest first.”
He turned to enter the patriarch’s house, but the guard at the door stopped him with a spear.
Sure enough, getting out is easy, but getting in is hard.
“Oh, Mr. Belveref, the silver wolf.” An old Leopard man came. The old man’s brown hair has turned gray due to old age. Although the black dress on his body is not luxurious, it is straight and decent, and he seems to be the manager of the house.
“Sorry, the patriarch’s premises can no longer accommodate you. Tomorrow is the New Year’s Eve. Many guests will enter the premises. We must clear the patriarch’s premises.”
(meaning, you two are not among the welcome guests at all….)
Yue Nian Festival should refer to the sacrificial ceremony of the Leopard people to celebrate the arrival of the new year. Usually in early or mid-January. This time it happened to be caught up by Bedivere and the others.
“Okay.” The werewolf boy turned his head dejectedly and looked at Paphos beside him: “Let’s find a hotel to stay in. I just hope that there are still vacant hotels in Athens.”
“About the hotel.” The butler slowly took out a map, “Master Kaos has already arranged a place for you, and you have paid for the accommodation. You just need to follow the directions to the hotel. .”
This is good news. At least tonight you don’t have to worry about finding a hotel.
“Can I ask you something by the way?” Bedivere asked, “Uh——“
“Simmons.” The old leopard introduced himself.
“Mr. Simmons——” Bedivere whispered something into the old Leopard Man’s ear.
“Understood, I will help to tell.” The old butler saluted the Bedivere and his party.
When Albert woke up, it was already night. The campfire was not burning very vigorously, and the dim light shone on the surrounding environment, and El realized that he was still in the original ruins of the Parthenon.
He tried to move, only to be surprised to find that his hands and feet were tied behind him. His hands and feet were wrapped around some kind of tough vine, and it seemed difficult to break free. He lay weakly on his side on the stone floor, only a hide and a campfire kept him warm.
“Are you awake?” Jack leaned over, chewing some kind of wild fruit, while shoving another wild fruit into Al’s mouth, “Although it’s not much, but try to eat as much as you can, it will grow tonight. .”
“Ugh!” Al swallowed a few mouthfuls of food, and immediately struggled for a while: “Stinky boy, you are plotting against me! What the **** are you trying to do!”
“Sorry, Boss, you are in a hurry to leave, but I can’t stop you, so I have to tie you up first.” Jack said with a shameless smile, “[That] has a time limit, once it starts , we don’t get in and get out as soon as possible, it’s going to be restored.”
“[That]?”
Jack raised the torch and pointed to the ground not far away. That’s where he planted the beans before.
“…Are you telling me to watch those beans sprouting here?” Al struggled for a while, “I don’t have time to mess around with you! Let me go! I And go back to meet up with friends!”
“Shh! Look!” Jack covered Al’s mouth.
The seeds sprouted.
Three tiny seedlings emerged from the ground and began to grow at an incredible rate! They soon grew thick roots, stems, branches and leaves, which were as tender as real plants, but with a strange metallic luster, reflecting the light under the light of the fire.
“Magic Meow?” Al was stunned.
“I’m going to untie you, boss, but you have to promise me not to run away.” Jack put his hand on Al’s back.
Al didn’t answer, so he wouldn’t run away. The peas in front of him were growing at an unbelievable speed, how could he not finish watching such a wonderful scene?
The pea vines soon intertwined and began to take a specific shape. a circle.
Albert didn’t notice that his hands and feet had been tied, he just subconsciously got up and walked over, intending to see what happened.
“Be careful!” Jack pulled Al.
A fully formed pea begins to spread its leaves, forming a giant star on the ground. The ground under the peas suddenly disappeared, and what replaced it was a piece of darkness, and the bottomless roots that continued to extend down.
“What the **** is this?!” Albert couldn’t help exclaiming.
“Am I right, boss? There’s a huge treasure here.” Jack pointed to the big hole in the ground. “Climb down the roots and we’ll reach the treasure.”
“But?” Al knew it would never be that simple.
“However, there’s a twelve hour time limit,” Jack said reluctantly. “Once the time passes, the entrance will disappear, the pea vine will revert to its bean state, and we’ll be trapped in it forever. .”
“Not [forever]. As long as one person is left outside to watch the post, even if the entrance is closed, planting the beans again will ——“
“It will take a week for these beans to recharge, and another half a day to plant again. Trust me, no one can live here for a week. —Even so, would you still go?” Jack warned.
This is definitely a death trap. If you run in, you can’t come back alive.
“Go ahead. Let’s find out first.” Curiosity still prevailed over Al.
Jack smiled~IndoMTL.com~ saw Albert’s heart beat again. Jack took the lead in crawling in, and Al concealed his blush and crawled down.
The dark passage is almost devoid of light. Al had to hold on to the roots as hard as he could, trying to climb down safely—God knows how many feet deep in the hole?
Fortunately, the roots are not slippery, and the grip is still stable, and there is no danger of breaking.
After about ten minutes of climbing, Al began to feel the hole getting brighter and brighter, and yes, it was almost at the bottom.
“Boss, it’s the end, just jump.” Jack shouted from below.
Albert was still skeptical, judging from Jack’s voice, he was still at least thirty feet from reaching the bottom, and he might break his leg if he jumped.
But he knows that time waits for no one, so he has to take a compromise method, relax his hand and slide down quickly.
Slap. After the muffled sound, Al found himself firmly landed on a layer of white cotton-like ground.
“This is?” He looked around and found himself in a world of pure white mold that stretched for hundreds of miles.
The ceiling is a sky-like pure blue, composed of glowing fungi. They shone day and night. Although it was a faint light, it was reflected by the pure white mold under El’s feet. After countless reflections, it illuminated this underground world as if it were day.
“Welcome to Typhon, the demonic realm,” said Jack, a young snow leopard.
