Chapter 444: Communication (1)
Angele was surrounded by red light after activating the elemental teleportation . He traveled more than 30 meters within a second, landing on the right side of the bush .
In the dark forest, Angele's eyes were surrounded by a thin red glow . He narrowed his eyes after detecting the retreating fire snake wolves so they would not notice the light .
*WOO*
The fire snake wolves were retreating at full speed . They went through the bushes; Angele could hear the noise made by the grasses .
Angele hid in the shadows and activated the stealth technique . He could see the red shadows passing by and the light from the snake heads on the wolves' tails .
All fire snake wolves retreated while howling .
Angele stood up slowly, charged forward, and followed after the last wolf .
He advanced for about half an hour in the forest, there were fewer and fewer trees ahead .
By the end of the red trees, there was a tall gray mountain .
On the left side, there was a dark cave that was about 20 meters tall and 10 meters wide . There was also a small river running out of the cave .
The fire snake wolves all rushed into the cave as the red light flashed and they disappeared inside within seconds .
Angele slowly walked out of the bush and drew a circle in the air . He chanted the incantation and created a light-red barrier around his body .
He then tapped on the pouch, creating another white barrier outside the red barrier .
'Without the Metal Mastery, I have to rely on the magic devices . The barriers can handle about 100 degrees of damage, but they're much harder to use…' Shaking his head, Angele approached the cave .
There was a small cave on the left of the large cave and there was a fire snake wolf inside . The fire snake wolf noticed that someone was moving toward the cave, it lowered its body and raised its head .
*Howl*
The high-pitched voice echoed in the cave and the wolves in the large cave started howling as well, Angele could see their glowing green eyes .
Angele remained calm, his eyes were surrounded by a red glow, and a red bird flew out of his chest .
The bird rotated around his body and exploded, turning into a lot of red ribbons .
Angele raised his right hand and grabbed one of the ribbons .
*Woo*
A ball of red light covered his body .
The red light disappeared after about one second and a long red-golden blade appeared in Angele's hand . The blade was connected to a full arm armor that had a mechanical look . The arm armor also looked large and heavy .
A white lion appeared behind Angele, its body surrounded by white flames .
*Roar*
The lion roared and a red phoenix mark flashed between its brow . The lion's white fur was coated with flames and it almost felt like its fur was burning .
"Go now . " Angele patted the lion's head .
The lion roared again and charged forward, turning into a white shadow .
*BAM*
The fire snake wolf in the small cave was pressed against the ground and its throat was bitten open by the lion . The wolf struggled for a while and stopped moving .
The red blood from the wolf ran down the gray ground and moved into the clear river .
The lion did not stop, it turned into a white shadow and charged into the large cave .
Angele slowly walked into the cave with a two-meter-long blade in hand . He could hear the wolves' groans as they were eliminated .
The smell of blood was getting intense as Angele walked further and there were fewer wolves howling than before .
After about 10 minutes, Angele turned several times by the corners, but he still could not see the end of the cave .
The red glow of the red barrier and the light from his eyes brightened up his surroundings .
The dead wolves lined up on the ground inside the cave and their blood all ran into the river . The river had already turned red and stank .
Angele counted as he advanced and noticed that there were about 100 dead fire snake wolves .
About half an hour later, he reached a black hole that looked like an exit . The flame lion was waiting by the hole quietly, releasing gentle white light from his body .
Angele stopped in front of the hole and peeked inside .
The hole was an entrance to a small stone chamber and there was a deep hole in the ground there that looked like a well . Chilling wind was coming out of the well constantly .
Angele leaned forward and looked down the well . However, the well was so deep that he could not see anything within it .
He took out a small red ball that looked like it was made of rubber . He waved the ball several times and dropped it into the well .
The red ball released a gentle red glow as it started falling, the glow getting brighter and brighter as it fell .
Angele watched the small ball fall; however, the red light was getting weaker and weaker in his sight . After about half a minute, he could only see a red light dot down there .
"It's not working?"
Angele's brow furrowed, he took out another red ball out of the pouch and hit the wall with it after shaking it several times .
*BOOM*
The ball exploded and released a ball of red flame . The flame ball was bright and it had a diameter of several meters .
The flame ball climbed up the wall and started burning . The whole stone chamber was brightened up by the light .
'It's still working, which means, the well is so deep and cold that the light ball is less effective…?' Angele guessed . He waved his right hand and the fire on the wall extinguished .
Angele stood by the well, he hesitated for a second but still decided to do some investigation .
'I must make sure what's under the well is not dangerous if I want to build the altar here . ' Raising his right hand, he created a red flame vortex above his palm .
The vortex quickly shrank and turned into a head-sized black lava ball with golden lava dripping down its surface; the temperature of the lava ball was extremely high .
"Let me give it a try . " Angele carefully threw the lava ball down the well .
*Woo*
The head-sized lava ball accelerated and started falling . The bright red light brightened up the wall of the well and the temperature of the lava successfully handled the coldness down the well .
Several seconds later, a loud noise came from the bottom of the well .
The red light and white smoke spurted out of the well .
Angele looked down after the smoke disappeared . He could see that there was something burning down there and the chilling wind that was coming out of the well turned into warm air flows .
'It's about time . ' Angele checked his barriers and looked at the flame lion .
"Guard this place, kill all creatures that approach . " He sent the message to the lion using mentality wave .
*Roar*
The white lion opened its wings and crouched by the well . It felt like the lion understood Angele's order without any problems .
Angele was satisfied, he nodded and jumped into the well quickly .
He felt like he escaped gravity for a second, all he could hear was the noise made by the wind and the fire . The red dots were getting brighter and larger as he fell .
The well could only fit one person at a time and its wall was extremely smooth . Angele touched the black moss on the wall by accident, the texture was wet and slippery .
Finally, Angele could see the red flames clearly after a while .
*Bam*
Angele's body hit the ground and it sounded like something exploded .
The burnt bones on the ground were blown to the air and the flame drops splashed .
Everything returned to peace after about ten seconds .
Angele slowly stood up from a fire pit at the bottom of the well . He checked his black robe and used energy particles to clean all the dirt .
The burnt bones were probably dropped into the well by the fire snake wolves; the unpleasant smell from the bones permeated the air . Some of the bones were still burning around the fire pit Angele was standing in .
On the left, there was an underground hall average in size .
Most of the lava and the flames flowed into the hall and started burning on the floor .
There were black wooden boxes lining up on both sides of the hall, most of them were empty and rotten . Rusty black weapons were hanging on the wall, including, blades, spears, and greatswords .
The well was the only thing that could bring air into the hall and there was no other exit .
Strangely, there were three stone coffins sitting quietly at the center of the hall .
The coffins were tightly closed and covered in mysterious engravings—runes or characters that Angele had never seen .
Angele's brow furrowed as he sniffed at the air . There was dust everywhere and he could smell blood .
'That's probably from those black boxes…' he thought .
Angele stepped on the lava and walked straight to the coffins .
He went around the coffins and noticed that it seemed like there was no way to open them .
*KA*
Suddenly, something in the coffins made some noise .
Angele quickly took two steps back and kept his distance from the coffins . He raised his black, he was prepared for a possible battle .
*Ka*
The three coffins slowly opened at the same time and white smoke was released from the coffins .
"Ugh…"
Three black shadows slowly stood up from the coffins as they groaned .
With the red light from the lava, Angele could finally see the appearances of the three shadows .
There were two girls and a middle-aged man . They were all wearing black noble suites and they all had perfect faces . The man was handsome and the girls were pretty . Also, they all had pale skin and eyes with the color of blood .
*CHI CHI CHI*
After three light noise, they jumped out of the coffins like lightning and landed on the floor steadily .
