Chapter 278 Please Keep the Fire Light in the Darkness

"Wow, what a scary sound."

Screams came from the dark scene, and whoever encountered this situation had to become cautious.

"But why does it sound like someone is shouting?"

It's not "like", but it's just someone screaming, screaming and shouting "Don't come near me!".

Tammy finally understood. He was encountering another adventurer, and he didn't know whether the other adventurer was from Bede City or the Royal City.

But since he heard the cry, it would be unreasonable for him not to go over and take a look. Even if he didn't want to save him, he had to go over and take a look.

It would not be good if it was the Light Eagle Group, because it meant that their progress was not bad, and the Skyrim Raiders team would not be able to maintain their advantage.

Tammy quietly dealt with the monsters on the road while approaching the source of the sound. As a result, after walking for a while, he heard hurried footsteps running towards him. From the sound, he could guess that the other party must be panicked.

A woman appeared, wearing the equipment of the Light Eagle Regiment.

Tammy immediately didn't want to save him, but the little angel and the little devil in his heart struggled for a while, and finally he decided to take action.

He jumped out, pushed the female mercenary of the Light Eagle Regiment into the gap where he had previously hidden, and while drawing his sword in the direction she ran from, he shouted: "Don't worry, I'm here to save you."

The mercenary reacted immediately and huddled in the gap without daring to move. At this time, heavy footsteps came from the darkness.

Listening to this movement, I guessed that this monster must weigh several hundred kilograms. I am afraid it is a super monster.

Tammy looked at her katana sword and suddenly felt a little worried. What if she couldn't defeat him? He was so focused on saving people that he forgot about himself.

Here we come, the footsteps are approaching, the giant monster is about to reveal its true face!

"Come on, I'm not afraid of you!" Tammy looked solemn and shouted as if to be brave.

"Who are you"

The girl's confused voice came from the darkness, and Tammy couldn't help but be startled. After seeing the face of the visitor clearly, he called out "Ah".

"You, are you Gus?" He was deeply impressed by the girl who once saved him with a giant sword.

"Who are you?" Elsa didn't remember Tammy's name at all. It seemed like he hadn't told anyone his name at the beginning.

"What's going on? Why did your companion run away?"

"Whoa, the monster is catching up!"

Just when Tammy wanted to ask what was going on, the female mercenary screamed and ran away without looking back, her words and actions full of panic.

Elsa's eyes dimmed for a moment, and she turned and walked towards the darkness.

"This," although Tammy didn't understand what happened, he felt that he had to catch up with someone and ask. After thinking twice, he ran over and grabbed Elsa's wrist. The other party had saved him. If he encountered difficulties, If so, he has to return the favor.

"Don't touch me!" Elsa swung her arm and slapped Tammy away, causing her to retreat uncontrollably.

Her wrists were so thin and tender that it was impossible to tell that there was so much power hidden in her thin arms.

"Ah, I'm sorry," Al Huasa was a little flustered, pursed his lips, and then explained: "I've been cursed, don't come near me."

Cursed?

Tammy grinned and took a sip of the element bottle. The bones in his arm were broken by Elsa's swing. Fortunately, he still had the omnipotent element bottle.

This stuff is much better than healing potions

It hadn't even been half an hour since he got it, and he felt like he had already fallen in love with it.

"After the torches were used up, everyone thought I was a monster." Elsa's expression was a little lonely. "Everyone ran away. It must be because I was cursed."

Ran out of torches?

Tammy looked behind Elsa. The darkness there was as dark and solid as an abyss. Without lighting, the boundless darkness could really drive people crazy.

"But why do you say you're cursed?"

"Because, a monster cast a spell on me, and everyone was scared after that," Elsa said in a low tone, but asked curiously: "Why weren't you scared?"

"Well"

What should Tammy say? In his eyes, Elsa is who she is. Who would be afraid of a beautiful girl?

"Maybe my willpower is stronger." That's all he could say.

Elsa nodded in understanding, turned around and walked into the darkness.

Why are you leaving after just saying a few words?

Tammy scratched her hair and remembered the wise words Luluwo taught him:

"There are many friends and many paths. If you meet someone who needs help, you can try to help. Of course, you can help others. Don't let yourself get hurt and don't help bad people. It all depends on your own judgment."

"She shouldn't be a bad person, and besides"

He recalled what Roger, the magic consultant of the Skyrim strategy team, said to him:

"A man can't leave a sad beautiful girl alone!"

Although he felt that these words were somewhat unfair and inappropriate, the back of Elsa in front of him looked very lonely, and he had received help from her, so——

"Hey, what are you going to do next? I also got separated from my companions. Let's get together again!" Tammy chased after him.

Elsa stared at him for a long time, confirming that the other person really wanted to help her.

"I'm going to find my companions," she said. "I don't feel comfortable leaving them here."

"Then you don't have to worry about the person who ran away just now. It's safe back there."

"Well." Elsa nodded, and suddenly said: "Thank you."

If this was an RPG game, there should be [the character "Gasi" has temporarily joined the team! 】Such a reminder.

Tammy has always found the girl with the giant sword on her back to be mysterious. Her personality seems a little off-kilter, and she always behaves in unexpected ways, and it seems impossible to predict based on common sense.

But certain details can show that she is not ignorant of the world, but just skips all those troublesome steps.

In the process of getting along with her, Tammy often encounters her behavior that seems inexplicable but makes perfect sense if you think about it carefully.

Ordinary people might find it tiring to get along with Elsa, but Tammy thinks it's okay. After all, his captain Lulu Wo is also a troublesome guy.

"Do you still remember where your companions have gone?"

Elsa shook her head, and then said: "I can feel it."

"Then I will follow you." Tammy's words made the other party show a troubled expression.

It was learned from the exchange that Elsa and some mercenaries entered the dungeon on a temporary basis, but she did not say the reason.

The route they took down was also different from Tammy's. It was based on another route found by the Light Eagle Group. The entire route was staggered from the path that most people were exploring, so they had not yet discovered the existence of the three corpse warlocks and the bonfire.

Tammy wanted to complain. Logically speaking, this should be the top secret news about the Light Eagles winning the game. I didn't expect Elsa to tell me so easily. Did she believe me a little too much?

Judging from the girl's appearance, I'm sure she's really trusting people. Is she really not going to be abducted?

"A little dizzy"

Tammy suddenly frowned. He knew some simple spells, such as the light spell that now provided them with light in the dark.

However, the light produced by magic is not as effective as a torch in this dark area. Even if the illumination increases, it cannot dispel the darkness [mechanism].

In the lower level of the Casas underground cemetery, the mechanism of this area shrouded in darkness is that the longer you stay in the darkness, the easier it is to breed negative emotions. After the negative emotions reach a certain level, people will have all kinds of strange emotions. Weird thoughts, incomprehensible behavior, and even eccentricities.

This mechanism is also documented in "Dark Dungeon".

The only thing that can fight against darkness is a torch. It must be a burning flame attached to the handle. It cannot be a fire ignited out of thin air, nor can it be a light spell.

Tammy could tell the mechanism here at a glance, because there was a path in the big tomb area that was exactly the same as the mechanism here. This is an enlarged version!

But he had been searching for a long time and couldn't find anything to make a torch, so he had to bite the bullet and come in, preparing to run out as quickly as possible if something unexpected happened.

But after walking for nearly half an hour and soaking in the darkness for a full half hour, he felt his first discomfort.

"Does it mean that my strengthened spirit after injecting fire can resist the darkness?"

After discovering this, he felt a lot more relaxed. When he turned around, he found Elsa staring at him nervously.

Why are you so nervous? He doesn't know how to-

Elsa's form suddenly twisted and transformed into what Tammy feared most.

"Ah!" Tammy screamed.

In the blink of an eye, Elsa returned to her original appearance, and everyone was also startled by his sudden voice.

"Are you okay?" Elsa looked at him nervously, fearing that the other party would also run away.

"It's okay, it's okay." Tammy wiped the sweat from his forehead. He guessed that the reason why he could see the "hallucination" just now was because of the magic exerted by the monster as Elsa said before.

It is a kind of magic that acts on the spirit. The person who is cast by the spell will become the most feared person in the eyes of others.

But people with strong mental strength can resist this effect, just like Tammy now who has been strengthened by injecting fire.

As he stayed in the darkness for longer, his mental power declined due to erosion, so Elsa gradually changed in his eyes.

It's just a momentary transformation now. If it takes a little longer, I'm afraid it will

Tammy suddenly slapped her face, forced herself to cheer up, and thought:

Isn't it just a change of appearance? She won't hurt me. I don't need to be afraid!

Originally, he chased her to comfort Elsa. If he ran away again because of fear, wouldn't he make her even more depressed?

Then repay a favor with an enemy!

Elsa noticed something and said nothing, but took the initiative to distance herself from Tamira.

Tammy leaned forward forcefully, no matter how hard the other party tried to shake him, he couldn't get rid of him, like chewing gum.

Don't underestimate me, I won't be afraid!

Elsa curled her lips, but became more relaxed when communicating with the other party.

There are constant attacks by strange monsters in the darkness. In the absence of torches, the monsters are even more dangerous, but the brave man's giant sword brings a complete sense of security.

Tammy sometimes guessed where there would be ambushes and traps based on experience, but Elsa completely obeyed his arrangements and did whatever he asked without complaining.

Like a doll without thoughts of its own, Tammy kept frowning after noticing it.

But I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but as he gets acquainted with Tammy and his emotions heat up, the giant sword seems to become sharper and more powerful.

By the way, shouldn't a hero have a magic weapon? What is Elsa's magic weapon?

"I've come to a fork in the road."

A fork in the road appeared in front of the two of them. Tammy turned to look at Elsa, only to find that the latter was also looking at him, and her eyes were self-evident.

"Let me make the decision?" Tammy pointed at herself.

Elsa nodded, as if "I just need to be a thug."

It's like this again, she has no opinion, probably when she is with her fellow mercenaries, right?

For some reason, the man named Sally didn't come with them, but if he was here, he would probably be responsible for giving advice and not letting Elsa make a decision.

I always feel that Sally overprotects her.

Tammy hesitated, and his tone suddenly became tough, saying: "No, you make the decision this time!"

Elsa was stunned and shook her head firmly.

"If you don't make a decision, I'll leave." Tammy used the ultimate killer move!

It works great on Elsa!

""

She hesitated, but under the "coercion and inducement", she had to agree, as if she had made a great sacrifice, and pointed to a random road.

Tammy smiled and said cheerfully: "Very good, let's take this road!"

They were lucky. Although there were many monsters on this road, they picked up a spell called [Kasas's Beacon].

[Kasas's spell in the Gravel Country, one of the most secret ones. The more continuous the attack, the higher the attack power]

[Kasas's invasion is like a flame spreading, and since ancient times, this flame has been used as a signal of war like a beacon]

As the first discoverer, Tammy forced the page to Elsa, who refused but had to accept it, with an expression of "I will cherish it for the rest of my life".

I can't say that I dislike Casas's things and don't want to use them, Tammy secretly complained in her heart.

This time Elsa's choice was very successful, so when she encountered a fork in the road next time, Tammy still let her choose, and the same thing happened the next time.

At first, she was not used to it, but gradually, Elsa gradually became familiar with making choices. When she encountered a fork in the road, she would think for a while before making a choice.

But one time, she failed.

"Dead end"

Tammy looked at the dead end in front of her, and Elsa beside her felt ashamed for having made the wrong choice.

The latest chapter of this novel is released, please go to read it!

On the way back, she didn't say anything. When she encountered a fork in the road and needed to make a choice next time, she resolutely refused to do it, no matter how Tammy threatened.

Tammy had to resort to provocation.

"You can't do it after just one failure? You scumbag, if your mental endurance is so fragile, why do you still want to be a mercenary? Why not just..."

After a while, Elsa's face turned black, but she took the initiative to make a choice, and then without Tammy's urging, she also rushed around in the underground cemetery angrily.

During this period, she encountered a series of events that could be described as a car accident, including but not limited to being bitten on the head by a treasure chest monster that fell from the sky, falling into a sense-covered pit, and being drowsy due to hypnotic smoke.

"Wait, don't go over there, that's the tentacle monster swamp!"

"The poison pool swamp in the Fran Fortress!? Why is there one here too!"

"It's raining? No, it's the acid slime, it's a trap!"

The consequence of rushing around is stepping on landmines everywhere, but having strength means being willful. For ordinary people, Elsa can even rush through a situation that is doomed to death.

Even so, she still inevitably felt frustrated.

But under Tammy's continuous "taunting", Elsa turned sadness into motivation, made her own decisions continuously, and continued to step on pits and make continuous progress.

Gradually, she didn't seem to realize that she had become accustomed to expressing her ideas, and even talked more.

Very good, Elsa's character correction operation was a great success!

Although Tammy was very tired and her lips were almost numb, she felt it was worth it mentally.

Talking to Elsa also helps to keep his spirits high and fight against the darkness.

But as time goes by, his spirit is inevitably eroded, and he can occasionally see strange things in the darkness.

Elsa's figure sometimes flashes in his eyes, changes its form and changes back, often scaring him into a cold sweat.

But even if his spirit is hit hard, he didn't call out again, not wanting to bring more pressure to Elsa, who is slowly changing.

"Are we friends?" Elsa suddenly asked after helping Tammy kill a monster that tried to sneak attack.

"Friends?" Tammy's tone suddenly changed, and the whole Elsa became nervous instantly.

It can be seen that she has a deep understanding of the word "friend". Should it be said that it is an obsession or something else?

She hesitated for a long time and did a lot of ideological work before asking this question. Tammy's question made her heart instantly rise to her throat.

"We were friends when we first met." Tammy smiled and said, "You saved me so many times today. I think even if we can be considered family, family members may not be so close."

Home, family

There was no color in his mind at all, but this word that was more intimate than "friends" made the brave man's brain crash for a while.

"Hey, wake up, the monsters are around again!"

The exploration continued. During this period, they did not find any lost mercenaries. I'm afraid they had already died at the hands of the monsters.

After nearly two hours, they reached the end of darkness. When they walked out of the darkness, Tammy couldn't help but tremble in the chill.

The empty room, and the monsters that were emitting cold air, undoubtedly, they encountered the second elite monster in the Kasas Cemetery.

The opponent's style was completely opposite to the cemetery, and it could even be said that it was incompatible.

[War Knight]

The forces from the Cold Valley appeared in front of the adventurers for the first time. At the feet of the beast-like War Knight, a mercenary was screaming.

Elsa's eyes turned red when she saw this, and she immediately rushed up. The War Knight roared like a beast, jumped up and pounced on her!

Then he was slapped away by the giant sword.

Tammy looked at Elsa who was treating the mercenary, and then looked at the direction where the War Knight was beaten away. Finally, she gritted her teeth and ran over to collect the heads.

"Ruth, wake up!"

Elsa rarely showed an anxious expression, and poured the last bottle of healing potion on the mercenary.

"Elsa, is that you?"

The mercenary slowly opened his eyes, but screamed at the top of his lungs the moment he saw Elsa.

"Monster! Don't come over here!"

He knocked over the healing potion with a slap, rolled and crawled to the side, and shivered in the corner.

He looked at Elsa with disgust and fear.

Elsa was stunned for a long time, and her hands were shaking.

But on the other side, Tammy's scream forced her to come back to her senses. When she looked again, she saw that the other party had been pierced through the chest by the Knight of War!

"I, I'm really sorry for being so bad." Tammy smiled helplessly. He couldn't be blamed, because this Knight of War had been strengthened to the level of C+.

"Tammy!"

Elsa called out his name for the first time. At this moment, her body seemed to have been turned on by some kind of switch. In the blink of an eye, the Knight of War was knocked out by the huge force, and Tammy fell to the ground.

"I'm fine, kill him!"

Tammy waved her hand with the element bottle. As long as he drank a sip, he wouldn't die.

Elsa gritted her teeth and flashed in front of the knight like a mad beast. Suddenly, flames burned on her body. It was Kasas's beacon fire!

Without any pre-casting swing and no spell casting props, the beacon fire actually burned by itself?

The giant sword burst out with unprecedented strength at this moment, even more powerful than when it fought against the rampaging Sean in Bed City!

The knight was beaten without any ability to fight back!

"Haha, it's really strong. It would be great if I could poach him. The captain must be very happy."

Tammy drank a sip of the element bottle, and the injury on his chest recovered quickly, and his mental strength was also replenished.

But there was still a faint darkness here, and the erosion of the spirit by darkness could not be gotten rid of by replenishing mental strength.

While being severely injured by the knight, Tammy's spirit was also deeply eroded by the darkness, and the mental strength strengthened by the fire injection ceremony could not withstand it.

Elsa's figure, in his eyes, completely turned into a distorted appearance, becoming the thing he feared the most.

"Oh no!"

With a bang, the body of the knight turned into ashes, and the purple light fell to the ground, but no one picked it up.

Elsa turned and ran towards Tammy as soon as she won the victory, but after just a few steps, her steps gradually stopped.

Because she saw Tammy trembling, trembling with fear.

And the thing he feared was obviously himself!

At this moment, Elsa understood the reason, and even the strength to grit her teeth disappeared, and the giant sword fell to the ground with a "clang".

Tami's body was stiff and trembling. He finally understood why those mercenaries screamed and ran away. This was not as easy as he imagined.

Elsa became the most fearful appearance in his eyes, which was more or less a mental attack, making his heart tremble constantly.

He also wanted to escape, no, he was about to escape, and his feet were already moving slowly!

At this moment, he saw Elsa make a move - she turned around and walked away without even picking up the giant sword that fell on the ground.

That back looked like she was running away, perhaps because she was afraid to see Tammy, a friend she had just met, shouting at her as a monster.

But at this moment, her shoulders were suddenly pressed down, tightly pressed down.

She could break free with just a little effort, but she didn't dare to move.

"Where are you going?" Tammy's sunny voice came from behind, "We just defeated the elite monster, we should celebrate."

"Tammy, you"

Elsa turned around and suddenly covered her mouth, because in her eyes, although Tammy's smile was exactly the same as usual, her whole body was soaked with sweat, as if she was holding back her fear.

"Look, this is the item you just got from killing an enemy. It's called [Pope's Right Eye]. It's a purple light spot. I really envy you."

Tami put the Pope's Right Eye on Elsa's finger and took her wrist and walked away - towards Ruth.

Elsa didn't know how to react, and followed him in a daze.

"Weird, monster"

Ruth looked at the two in horror. In his eyes, Tammy, who was holding the monster Elsa, was also an inhuman thing. The closer the two got, the more he trembled.

At this moment, Tammy suddenly grabbed his collar, forcibly pulled up the strong man who weighed nearly 100 pounds more than him, and shouted at him:

"Watch this, this is risking death to save your partner, you are not a monster!"

"You are the partners who give their lives to each other on the battlefield, right? You are much closer than a stranger who just met me for half a day. I can see through that inferior illusion magic, why can't you!"

Tammy yelled, and Ruth was silent.

However, the next second, he suddenly took out a dagger and stabbed Tammy, who hurriedly blocked it, but he took this opportunity to escape and rushed into the darkness without looking back.

While running, he shouted:

"Captain Gus, where are you, come and save me!"

"Fuck Gus, where are you, come and save me like before!"

"Damn, if it weren't for the power, who would want to deal with a weird woman like you, save me!"

If negative energy can be condensed into substance, I'm afraid Elsa can drown Casas at this moment.

However, Tammy suddenly put his arm around her shoulders and showed her signature sunny smile.

"Let's go, aren't you looking for a partner? We haven't even met anyone yet. Keep working hard."

Without waiting for Elsa to react, he pulled her away with a smile, as if nothing had happened.

Elsa bit her lip, something crystal-clear was spinning in her eyes, and she nodded heavily.

"Yeah!"

The Lord's room in the Sean Dungeon.

Gong Qiying saw everything through the crystal ball, and couldn't help but reveal a quack-like expression.

"What a kingly plot development, I didn't expect to see this when I opened a dungeon."

He recognized Elsa as the brave warrior in Bed City at the beginning, so he started to think.

He had to find a way to keep this high-quality customer and turn her into a big fan of the Sean Dungeon.

Just like the swordsman Gapar in the past.
