Chapter 1711 - Scared To Tears On The Spot

"This place is a little strange?"

Babla followed behind Irina as they walked through a dark tunnel. Her surroundings felt eerie and a little scalp-numbing. She quickened her pace to catch up with Irina, and walked within the area of the Holy Light to feel a little more at ease.

After breakfast today, Irina brought Babla out of Chaos City to a place where there were thunder and lightning everywhere. After that, they went into a tunnel, and came to this creepy place.

"Don't be afraid. There really are ghosts here," Irina comforted.

"Er…" Babla was even more flustered. She quickened her pace again, and was almost sticking to Irina's back.

The dark tunnel seemed to go on forever, which made Babla increasingly nervous. She suddenly regretted agreeing so quickly last night. She felt way more at ease serving dishes in the restaurant than being here.

"Afraid?" Irina paused and looked back at Babla with a seeming smile.

Babla raised her brow. How could she admit that she was afraid in front of her idol? She widened her eyes, and said, "How's that possible? I'm not afraid."

"That's great. There's more scary stuff ahead." Irina smiled and continued walking forward.

What's up ahead that even Big Sister Irina would be afraid of? Besides, it even has something to do with ancient spell formations. Babla could not help but think a lot.

Bang, bang, bang!

Just then, there was a banging sound coming from up ahead in the tunnel.

"What's that!" Babla jumped in front, and hit her head against Irina's back.

"We're here." Irina smiled and glanced at Babla. The Holy Light shone at the end of the tunnel to reveal a huge stone door in front of them. At the same time, the horrifying mural was also displayed in front of them.

"That's scary!" Babla only took a look, and her legs went jelly. She grabbed onto Irina's thigh and started shaking.

What was that scary-looking monster on the mural? It was huge and terrifying!

It was just a glance, but Babla seemed as though she had seen the devil. It was a fear that came from the depths of her soul, making her forget all her shame and pride.

"It's just the devil," Irina said with a smile as she turned her head to look at Babla, who was hugging her thigh as she shook.

"Devil?!" Babla was stunned. She felt her body temperature go down, and did not think that it was just the devil.

After leaving the bustling city to come to this deserted place, then going underground a few thousand meters, and marching through a creepy tunnel to this large stone door, combined with the ancient spell formation Irina showed her yesterday, Babla could not help but have a bad feeling about this.

"Could there be a devil sealed behind this door… Are we going to release it?" Babla asked after swallowing.

"You're half right. There is a devil sealed here, and it's the one on the mural." Irina nodded with a smile. "However, we're not here to let it out. Instead, we are going to try to seal it once again in case it escapes from the seal and causes harm like in this mural."

Babla heaved a sigh of relief. She did not want to be the henchman of the devil. However, she quickly realized something, and looked at Irina in shock and horror. "Th-the devil on the mural is sealed right behind this stone door?"

"Yes." Irina nodded.

"We're… going in?"

"Yes."

"C-can I reject? I'm not ready yet…" Babla shook her head pitifully.

"No. You're the only one who could understand the ancient scriptures so far." Irina shook her head gently and crouched down slowly. She looked at Babla, and smiled coldly. "If you don't look for it now, when it breaks free from the seal, it'll come looking for you. Think about it. Those tentacles filled with eyes squeezing through your room door and wrapping themselves around you, the sticky tentacles…"

"Wah…"

Babla was scared to tears on the spot.

So weak? Irina looked at Babla, who was crying, and was stunned. After a while, she smiled and caressed the girl's head as she said, "Let's go, what we need to do is prevent such things from happening. Therefore, we have to seal it before it escapes from the seal so that we can buy ourselves more time before we find a way to kill it."

Babla slowly stopped crying with Irina's comforting, and let go of the other party's thigh to slowly stand up. She pressed her lips together with grievance, and said, "Before this, I always thought that the demons were the scariest-looking race in this world, but they really look very kind compared to this devil."

"That's because you haven't seen an ugly demon. There are so many of them who look way worse than this," Irina said with a smile. "I'll bring you over to the Demon Islands to take a look when we have the chance, alright?"

"No, no, no. I don't want to." Babla shook her head furiously. She looked at Irina with fear in her eyes. This was not what she imagined her idol to be!

"Let's go. We'll take a look at the situation inside." Irina pulled out a foldable chair, and swung it on a protruding rock tens of meters above them. After that, the heavy door started to open slowly.

Irina walked in first.

Babla hesitated for a bit, and followed behind quickly for fear of being left outside.

Upon entering, Babla hid quickly behind Irina, and shut her eyes tightly.

Krassu and Urien, who had already spent a day here, appeared rather exhausted. Novan was studying the spell formation carefully at the side. It was just the three of them in this huge cave.

When they heard the door open, everyone greeted Irina, and then looked at Babla, who was behind.

"Isn't this a server working for Boss Mag? Why did you bring her here?" Krassu asked with bewilderment.

"Didn't you say to gather all the spell formation masters in Chaos City? Why are there only the three of you?" Irina asked.

"I showed them the spell formation, but it was too old, and no one could understand it. This fellow can affect our psychology without us knowing, and even Krassu almost fell for it, so I didn't bring them in," Urien replied.

"Yeah. This fellow is a little creepy." Krassu nodded with some fear. After that, he asked, "Why did you bring this lady here?"

"She might just be the only one we could find who could understand the spell formation." Irina shifted to the side, and patted Babla's shoulder as she said, "Open your eyes. I'll block everything for you."
