Although Curt hated the strange magician, what he did so far proved his strength - and the madness that existed with his strength.

Just the fact that he led the construction of the huge rock statue and the dark "sun" placed inside it showed that he was far beyond the ordinary magic and spell knowledge that was powerful than ordinary spells. Now he was still controlling a large number of monster troops behind him, which made Curt unwilling to declare war with him easily.

Considering the premise that the female archer did not deceive them, there was only one way to escape from the cave, which was the door that was now open in front of them. The little monster who had blocked them with his body retreated to the sides, giving them a way to leave here.

Although what the other party said was not worth believing, he really did not need to lie in such a place - because it was impossible to stop Curt by relying on his combat power alone. Even if he ordered the surrounding monsters to attack the three of them together, they would only need to spend more effort to clean up obstacles on the road ahead.

The conditions in front of him are already very clear. The other party is just waiting quietly for him to make a choice. Is it to fight against these unstable elements for a member of the enemy's True Eye, or to take this opportunity to withdraw from here and no longer get involved in the whirlpool of chaos.

"It's really troublesome. I thought I could escape from trouble and live a stable daily life by escaping here." Curt shook his head tiredly and said helplessly, "It seems that even if I escaped a small trouble, I will be swept into a larger vortex."

This is undoubtedly a vicious cycle. He wants to get out of trouble and choose to escape, but he is involved in another trouble. If he chooses to eliminate those unstable factors in order to live a stable life, it will only allow himself to take the initiative to step into the throat of chaos.

Humans really cannot predict what will happen in the future. Even if they think they can make the best solution to the status quo, they may find that they are just being self-indulgent. But then again, it is precisely because of so many uncertain factors in life that they will not make people feel bored.

For the two people who were deprived of their freedom to choose death, the slightest turmoil caused by dullness is a comfort. And if they want to stay in Katris and return to their past lives, it will be just a matter of time to fight with the group led by the other party.

Compared to the True Vision Eye or the Ultramarine Sect who attempted to restore power, the group of these madmen may be more dangerous - perhaps the female archer was one of the key points. So he pulled up the female archer who collapsed on the ground, almost losing consciousness, and carried her behind her back.

Maybe she was avoiding herself becoming a burden. She kept barely standing by herself when Curt was fighting with the little monsters, while insisting on acting with Liqi. But shortly after the monster started talking, she lost the strength to support her body and collapsed softly on the ground.

"So that's it. It seems that you have made a decision to tell the truth. Curtleinst, your choice disappoints me very much." There was no change in the monster's face, and no emotion could be heard in his tone. "Everything will eventually come to a liquidation, you just need to wait."

It knows everything, and no one can escape from the network of fate, whether it is the past or the future. As if it is chanting something, the monster begins to shout loudly. Gradually, its voice loses the tone that should belong to humans, leaving only howling like beasts.

After a moment, it flapped its deformed wings behind it, supporting its weird body and flew up. Soon, it disappeared without a trace just like it first appeared, and the monsters that accompanied it gradually disappeared around the cave under the leadership of the commander.

"Damn, what exactly does this guy want to express?"

After all the foreign objects were evacuated, the noisy cave completely returned to peace, and only the flesh and corpses remaining on the ground proved everything that had happened here. Curt sighed and walked towards the steps ahead with the female archer on his back, while Liqi followed him thoughtfully.

How long have you been in this stronghold now? Curt felt that his feelings about time were blurred. But the moment he walked down the steps, the dazzling sunlight attracted the attention of Curt and Liqi - it was not illusory, and this warm feeling was nostalgic.

In front is a canyon under the abyss, perhaps it can be said that the style of this underground space is between the canyon and the sinkhole. The gap above is like a thin line extends to the defense line where the sun is located, and then turns into a vague gap, creating a style like a sky.

He looked down following the huge crack that casts sun shadows in the distance. What appeared before the two of them was a huge forest. Enough sunlight penetrated through the huge cracks in the distance, allowing the outlines of the plants that were staggered in height to appear in the slightest.

The scenery in front of him reminded Curt of the lower area of ​​the Coria Mine, which also has a large number of plants growing, which is full of vegetation for various reasons. However, the mushroom bushes growing deep in the mine are absolutely different from all the vegetation below the canyon in front of him.

——Realistically speaking, it is not surprising that underground forests grow in these caves connected to the outside world, but only here seems strange and terrifying.

Yes, the scenery that spread before the two people now is a strange forest growing in the hollow underground. These plants grow unrestrictedly and eventually grow to this extraordinary size, as if they themselves are portrayals of the word "huge".

The shrubs that usually only grow to the height of the adult thighs are as high as two stories here, and the following are the branches that grow vigorously. The varieties that are usually exaggeratedly called "tower trees" really have to reach towering heights here - they rise from the ground, with straight branches to the sky. Even the insignificant grass is enough to submerge everything that has been involved in it.

In addition to the original plants that grow abnormally, there are many withered small plants left in it. They are much thinner than ordinary people, and they look extremely inconsistent in this forest full of giant plants. The branches are twisted, and there is no green on the treetops. They are all gray, and their clear outlines make them look like sinners struggling in hell.

"What's going on with these plants? Could it be that they were cursed!"

Looking at the scenery in front of him, Curt couldn't help but be amazed. After entering this stronghold, he felt the incredible spells because of the products of the experiment. But now this forest is not just like this, they show another situation that he would not even think of in the past.

Although he couldn't say it, he felt a very uncomfortable feeling nearby - as long as he looked at the withered plants, Curt would feel an inexplicable strange feeling. All the common sense he had before was distorted here, and the space in front of him was forcibly replaced for foreign land.

The malicious intention in the air is extremely distinct. Although it is difficult to affect the overall range, it makes people feel an indescribable discomfort. These things should not have appeared here, just like there should not have been dissonant scales with different styles in a massive performance.

In addition, Curt always felt that he felt the rhythm of life from the inside of those plants that ordinary plants could not feel. It was as if they were not just ugly on the outside, but in essence they were also the sinners bound by this suffering, roaring in the cracks between life and death.

"I thought you were so dull that you couldn't feel anything." Liqi, who was thinking silently, suddenly laughed, and pointed behind Curt, "This is really interesting. It's more lively than all the cemeteries I've seen. You can see so many things without using spiritual vision."

Liqi tucked her ears with some disgust because she could hear them making sharp calls. The magicians who study souls all attach great importance to the ability to communicate with spirits, but Liqi was troubled by her strong spiritual vision ability because they were too noisy.

Of course, covering your ears physically cannot stop the murmurs echoing deep in the soul, and the subject that makes such sounds will not care whether they will interfere with the living person. The souls who stay in the past longing and pain of death are endlessly wailed, and are all bound in this woodland.

"It's really spectacular. As you say, this forest is not only as weird as it looks, but they have become a 'container' for spiritual hosting?" Curt looked around, as if the trees that came out of the horror story were also looking at him, "This is really a big deal."

He carefully observed the struggling trees, as if to confirm that there were indeed a large number of spirits in them, which made the trees so distorted. Perhaps that was the reason why he felt uncomfortable. Even if he could not see the existence of the spirits, he could still feel deep malice from the air.

"What should you say about 'container'? Although it is something similar in essence, it is still a little different." Liqi thought for a while and began to explain her opinion. "Although things that give the spiritual body that has lost its physical constraints in normal cognition are containers, the woods are a little more extreme. They are densely filled with souls like cans."

For those spirits, the trees that accommodate them are no longer just boarding containers, but are imprisoned and restricted freedom. Perhaps it can be believed that it is precisely because of the filling of a large number of souls that the trees grow into such a terrifying form.

The malicious intention is so dense that it almost possesses entities, and even the warm sunlight cast through a ray of sky cannot dispel the chill they emit. (To be continued)
