Chapter 585: Pillar of Soul Binding (1/3)
Chapter 585 Soul-Binding Pillar (13)
"You know our goal is to save dragons?!"
Even in the process of charging, Zhuang Guang still couldn't help being surprised.
Saying so, the giant sword in her hand didn't stop. With a cleave, she smashed the forehead of a monster like garlic, and also smashed the two phantoms into thin air. It was obviously a good sword.
Although Redemption is a Minoan, his true form is "Fenrir's Hunt". The top rank of the wolf family is the highest level of tracking created by combining the advantages of the most powerful hunter in the northern border of Yanjiang. True form of hunter and hunter.
Even at the second energy level, she possesses brute force that cannot be matched by ordinary monsters. With one punch, she can blow up iron and wood that cannot be surrounded by three people, and she also has the eyesight to see through the marks left by the target at a glance.
When Redemption enters the 'hunter mode', her physical fitness and tracking ability can be enhanced in all directions. Even if it is more than ten kilometers away, her hunter instinct can still sense the badly damaged enemy—while in normal times , she can even briefly rejuvenate herself by drinking the blood of her enemies.
Right now, Redemption has naturally not entered hunter mode, but the process of killing phantoms and all kinds of weird chimera monsters still excites her, her power is getting stronger and her speed is increasing.
"Of course I know."
Ian induced calmly, he said lightly, and led everyone into the next little garden.
After that, he didn't stop, and immediately led the crowd towards the next little garden—but the many carrion corpses and phantoms lingering in this little garden didn't react, and let Ian lead the crowd to pass them over in a daze.
Ian said as he walked: "Your goal is to rescue the survivors. Who doesn't know the purpose of Huaiguang?"
Apart from that, he didn't say much else. Others will make up for him.
In the process of such a conversation, Ian led the Huaiguang rescue team across three small gardens, and all the phantoms along the way were as Ian had foreseen, very weak, but quite 'difficult', belonging to the kind of killer It will splatter all over with blood, and it will definitely slow down the progress because of fighting them.
"Powerful phantom, those subordinates of the dead king are gone, now is a good time."
Ian predicts every choice. Thanks to his prophetic ability, the more people there are, the more useful they are.
After all, if there is danger, like Frost Butterfly, it may be fine, but such a large team, apart from the 'correct path', it is impossible not to experience some danger and damage.
As long as Ian can find the least dangerous of all choices, he must be on the right path.
The fact is true.
Under the inconceivable gazes of the Huaiguang Rescue Team, Ian passed through one box garden after another quickly as if he was in his own home, approaching the central area of the laboratory faster than any researcher.
Soon, they arrived at their destination.
After crushing another batch of phantoms that didn't even have a second energy level, everyone suddenly felt that their eyes suddenly became clear.
Here is a rather peculiar box garden, its space is extraordinarily large, covered by grasslands covered with countless thorns and vines, only one rugged path leads to the very center of the grassland.
And in the very center, there are eight erected pillars, nine to be precise, but because the middle pillar collapsed for some unknown reason, only the eight outer pillars are left shining with various colors of soul light.
At the top of each pillar, there is a group of shining things imprisoned. Others may not be able to see it clearly, but Ian can see it. Those are the imprisoned souls.
Either an individual or a group. All in all, this is the place where the soul is imprisoned.
Strangely... there are no apparitions here.
Or, there was, but was seduced away by another group—and the person who seduced the Phantom Guard was an acquaintance.
"Viscount Avak."
Ian squinted his eyes, and the silver chip analyzed the remaining source quality characteristics here. He could clearly perceive that this was the Viscount Avak leading his knights, seducing the guards who guarded the place where the souls were imprisoned. Mark of…
but why?
Although the strength of Viscount Avak and his knights has become much stronger because of the proximity to the subspace, even surpassing their real strength, it is not the same as the battle between Ian and Tres and others in the real world language.
But why would they do it?
Instead of protecting the researchers on the Grand Duke's side, they came here to steal souls?
Or, it is precisely because Viscount Avak and the others stole one of the nine pillars of soul that the "Dead Lord" will fight the researcher of Archduke Thorin with his serious injuries unhealed?
Ian was full of doubts in his heart, but he did not see any danger here, so he turned his head and said to the astonished Huai Guang behind him: "I think this is where the souls of our respective targets are imprisoned."
"The situation here is not right. I am walking ahead. If you want to keep up, just follow up. If you want to observe carefully, please feel free."
After speaking, without waiting for anyone else to reply, the Knight of the Valley turned around and rushed towards the center of the thorny plain along the rugged dirt road.
Soon, Ian arrived at his destination.
Immediately, Ian saw Xiou.
Among the eight pillars, there is only one soul on two pillars.
One is Xiou curled up in a ball, the body of a dragon soul that doesn't look very real.
The other one is quite surprising, it is actually Lübeck's body.
Harrison Port’s original mercenary leader Lubeck, although he was already at the peak of the first energy level seven or eight years ago, he has not broken through to the second energy level because of lack of inheritance and resources.
Originally, Ian felt that the other party should become the second energy level with the support of Huaiguang Church, and become the executor of the temple like Huijian and Redemption.
But before he got permission to advance, Lübeck returned to the mountain people for some reason unknown to Ian, and had relations with Dragon Worship and even Xiou, the descendant of the real dragon.
Then...he was imprisoned here.
And he already has a soul? But why is the whole body here?
Ian put aside this doubt for the time being. Anyway, not many people were saved, and there will be more time to ask slowly in the future.
The most important thing now is to see how to rescue Xiou.
The nine soul-binding pillars located in the center of the Thorn Plain bind the souls of 'Xio', 'Lubeck', 'Fairy', 'birds', 'beasts', 'insects', 'plants' and 'invisible things' respectively.
Ian was a little confused at the beginning, but soon, he groped out the door and said: "Interesting... Invisible things are some fungi, and they actually have souls, entwined with different mycelium..."
"In this way, the soul-binding pillar is actually entwined with the 'Animal Kingdom Aves', 'Animal Kingdom Mammalia', 'Animal Kingdom Insecta', 'Plant Kingdom' and 'Fungi Kingdom'."
"However, goblins and real dragons are independent of all of these—they don't belong to any of the above categories, so they are listed separately. For real dragons, there is only Xiou, and for goblins, there are probably only Hua An and Miss Mofeng. A friend... but there are quite a few, there are actually eleven fairy souls?"
Ian was a little surprised. He didn't expect the Avak Laboratory to be so bold that they dared to catch more than ten goblins... If a few goblins died or even lost contact, it would surprise Starfall City, but it wouldn't overreact .
After all, everyone knows about this ghostly place in Terra, and it is not surprising that they disappeared without a sound. God knows what strange labyrinth or monster made it.
But if there are more than seven or eight, the major fairy towns will definitely respond and try to search for them.
—Avak Laboratory, this is for the sake of experimentation, regardless of the future!
Ian probably understands why all parties are in such a hurry. The feeling is that they plan to evacuate directly after finishing their plans, and throw all the crimes and blame on the other party.
Of course, what puzzled Ian the most, and what he couldn't explain, was Lübeck's classification.
He...is actually independent of all the other creatures above, with a single soul...no, a body, occupying a soul-binding pillar?
Why is this?
