Chapter 130: This way.

Chapter 130 Go This Way

Before the frost froze the soles of the crowd’s shoes, they finally punched through the wall made of shadows.

Bill runs out immediately, and the others escape before the “wall” closes in again.

Thor looked up and reminded the crowd with slight excitement, “Take the passage to the right, and you’ll be able to get back to the exit near the ground!”

However, just as Saul reminded them, he saw Bill, who was running at the front, raise his left hand, “Watch out for the land craft, go this way!”

Bill then turned into the exit on the left, while Wright and Byron behind him followed without a word into the cave on the left.

Saul wanted to say that the left side was a dead end, but before he could open his mouth, the few people in front of him had already run in.

He ran to the fork in the road and couldn’t help but stop for a moment.

Behind him was a cold winter like gloom, to the right was an exit but probably an ambush of land traveling boat people, and the left was a dead end ……

Thor gritted his teeth and followed suit, turning into the left passage.

Maybe Bill and the others had some way to introduce the evil spirits chasing behind them into the right passage?

If the people in the land traveling boat could be directly confronted with the evil spirits, then they might be able to take advantage of the opportunity to escape.

Saul had a stomach full of questions, but as he looked at the people in front of him, each one of them was bored and running wildly, and no one was talking, he could only shrink his questions back to his stomach for the time being.

A few minutes later, the crowd came to the end of this passage.

A pile of boulders blocked the road in front of them, and it was impossible to see if there was still a passage after the boulders.

Relying on the few of them, even if they could break through the boulders, it would take a long time.

Saul slowly came to a stop, and he was just about to ask what to do next when he was shocked to find Bill slamming headfirst into the pile of rocks without losing any speed.

Behind them, Wright and Byron, who was carrying unconscious Nick, also went through the boulders one by one.

Saul stopped incredulously.

The scene in front of him reminded him of a scene from some classic novel.

“Could it be that one of the 2nd-order sorceries can go through walls?”

However, Saul had a trace of ominous foreboding in his heart.

In that novel, there was a scene where the protagonist was the one who was left behind ……

Saul reached out and touched the wall, and sure enough, it was an incredibly hard wall that his hand couldn’t penetrate through.

His chest rose and fell violently, and his mind was already enlightened, but he still took two steps back like a fool and slammed into the wall once more.

“Bang!”

Saul’s shoulder was hit with a raw pain, and a lot of dirt fell on his head.

He leaned against the wall, his arms and legs shaking violently from anger.

“So, this is how you lure away the evil spirits.”

A gust of white haze was exhaled with Sol’s breath.

The walls around them began to condense with delicate ice patterns.

The cold burrowed down Saul’s collar and cuffs into him.

“He’s coming.”

Saul already knew what was about to happen.

Not surprisingly, the diary flew out.

Saul glanced at what was on it, and not surprisingly it was another death.

He thought about being wary of Wright and Bill, but never expected Byron to sacrifice him so easily as well.

A full-fledged sorcerer-level evil spirit, an existence that Saul could not afford to outwit.

But he didn’t resign himself to his fate, if he did Saul would have turned into a pile of white bones long ago.

Saul took another look at the contents of the diary, his brain turning rapidly.

The knowledge he had learned over the years flashed before his eyes in turn.

“Fear comes from the unknown, but I don’t know nothing about evil spirits.”

A bold idea surfaced in Saul’s mind.

A soul assassin silhouette leapt on his arm, only their movements were no longer as active as they had been due to the cold.

Sol drew out the scroll of Spirit Armor Technique that he had failed to use several times and looked in the direction he had run from. In the darkness, he clearly felt something approaching, no sound, just an increasingly chilly aura.

Saul moved his arms, the crystals on his clothes repeating back and forth between condensing and crumbling, his frozen cheeks spreading into a twisted smile.

Clang – clang – clang…

The Shimmering Spell began to flicker uncontrollably.

Sol looked up and saw a pale, greenish-purple figure appear at the end of the darkness.

His face was grim, the corners of his mouth were twitching slightly, and his entire body, only the upper half, was floating in the air.

If one could look closely, one would realize that his hands, nose, and even his hair did not belong to the same person, as if it was a jigsaw puzzle made up of the limbs of countless different people.

And while the figure appeared to be motionless, it approached Saul in an instantaneous manner between each alternation of light and darkness.

The old man’s face was wrinkled, his skin drooping downward, his eyes resentful and passionate.

Once again, Saul’s ears were filled with countless vague cries for help and wails, as if he had traveled back in time to the day of the great battle in the Valley of the Drooping Hand.

“Come on!” He shouted, shattering the vulnerability and uneasiness within him, his mind rehearsing the thoughts he had just had, not even having the time to confirm the future with his diary.

The wrinkled, aged face zoomed in, zoomed out, and zoomed in again in Saul’s retinas!
Finally, darkness descended!

……

“Wright, block off the cave entrance!” After the whole group entered the right passage, Bill hurriedly asked Wright to activate the ground spikes to seal off the narrow passage.

Wright turned around and was about to cast a spell when he suddenly froze.

But he opened his mouth and said nothing, directly reciting the spell.

As his spell fell, a ground spike crisscrossed the narrowest part of the passageway, sealing it off.

Byron carried Nick on his back for a furious run, already a little tired, he muffled his voice, “What are you guys doing, evil spirits can manifest nothingness at any time ……”

“Saul!?” Byron suddenly turned around and looked back.

He realized that Saul surprisingly did not follow him in!

Having been casting spells at a high frequency since he met the evil spirits, Byron’s mental body was still shaking fiercely, causing him to completely fail to notice when Saul behind him had disappeared.

He finally realized for whom these two people had spent their magic power to seal the cave using the ground spikes!

It was simply to prevent Saul from coming out!

“Are you guys crazy?”

Byron said as he was about to charge back.

But at this moment, Bill pulled him back and said with a gloomy face, “Byron, will you be able to save Saul if you go back? The three of us can’t even resist that evil spirit when we join forces.”

“So you guys are using Saul as bait?” Byron’s throat cracked open in a huge mouth, his sharp teeth bared outward like an enraged vicious dog.

Wright didn’t say anything, just averted his eyes uncomfortably.

Abandoning the weak was kind of the usual maneuver, except that Byron and Saul were on good terms, so he hadn’t thought of abandoning Saul in the first place.

But now that Bill had stepped in, it was impossible for Wright to go back and save him.

Bill didn’t want to continue wasting time here, ”Saul has already dropped out, it’s just right for him to buy a little time for us. If you want to go and rescue someone, I won’t accompany you. Wright, let’s go.”

After saying that, Bill turned around and was about to leave.

“Bill,” Byron closed his eyes for a moment, and when he opened them again, peace had returned to his eyes, “was that the last intersection where you tricked Saul into another passage?”

Bill didn’t say anything, but his eyes said it all.

“I can sense that there was no spell casting fluctuation just now. So, you have long given Saul hallucinogenic poison …… was that the time he injured his arm?”

Thinking of abandoning him so early?
After all, Byron hadn’t been promoted to the third level for long, and didn’t know Bill very well.

But after today, he felt that he also recognized the third level apprentices.

It was just a slightly more powerful demon.

Bill laughed and lifted his feet to continue running, his voice remaining in the passageway, “You’re overthinking it, what am I doing against a second level apprentice?”

However, he had just taken two steps when he saw Byron rush in front of him at once.

Bill laughed coldly in his heart, “Didn’t he also choose to abandon Saul, just now wasting time pretending to be a good guy.”
