From Prisoner to Si Chen..

Chapter 335 Devouring
A circular mark made of seven colors fell in a corner of Jilan's sight.

Along with the colorful number "722".

Its shape is a circle with a six-pointed star embedded in it, which is unique to the theocratic spiral, and in the center is a scepter pattern. What is particularly special is that there is also a faint phantom of an ancient wooden wheel, in the middle of which is nailed a skeleton with arms outstretched in a state of suffering.

'The Kingdom Seal of the 5th-level "Glorious" Long-lived One, Master of Soul Studies, Aldin Higgins!'

Jilan was shocked and extremely happy.

Available in the next second.

Boom! !

The iron chariot he was in suddenly vibrated, making clanging sounds.

The white-haired old man raised his head, his face quickly shrank and turned into a mummy-like state. From his empty eye sockets, he looked at Jilan with deep malice.

"You can't stop, you can't stop..."

A cold and hoarse voice came out from the old man's mouth.

“Once you stop, it’s all over.”

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!!"

"You deserve to die!!!"

The old man's mouth opened and he let out a terrifying roar.

hiss-

Its head, arms and chest tore apart by themselves, with dirty, blood-stained chains connecting them. Its hands kept squirming and turned into high-speed rotating saw blades and sharp iron hooks.

Wow!
The iron chain made a rubbing sound and the iron hook moved in a winding manner, attacking Jilan like a giant iron-gray python!
Gilan raised the hammer of justice and swung it out.

when! !

A ferocious force actually knocked the transformed Jilan away.

Whoosh—crash!
The chain followed closely and wrapped around one of Gilan's arms at lightning speed, locking it.

Immediately, a terrifying soul force spread along the chains and instantly hit the depths of Jilan's heart, causing his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose to bleed.

The pain that Jilan endured at this moment would kill an ordinary person. Even if a Level 3 Mystic was hit by such a blow, his consciousness would be annihilated on the spot.

next second.

The ferocious saw blade, rotating at high speed, fell on his head!
woo-

At this moment, the superego hanging in the air thought calmly and quickly came up with a solution.

In Gillan's other hand, which was still able to move, the Hammer of Justice shook, and amidst the burst of colorful light, it turned into a gray flower basket cross sword.

He drew his sword with one hand, leaving a hexagram-shaped afterimage in the air.

bass--

Clang clang clang clang!!

The sword blade flickered with a mysterious rhythm, colliding with the saw blade twelve times in an instant, sparks flying everywhere.

When the saw blade landed on Gillan's shoulder, its rotation speed had already slowed down and only scratched Gillan's skin.

The sword blade turned, emitting a high-temperature green flame.

when! !

The chain was cut by Gilan's sword.

The broken end was burning red and emitting green smoke.

Jilan stepped on the ground, and the sewage flowing in the drainage ditch burst into a circle with a diameter of several meters, splashing a high water curtain.

He leaped back, and in the blink of an eye he had created a distance of dozens of meters between him and the chariot.

Seeing him run away, the nightmare guard in the image of a white-haired old man became furious and started the chariot again.

rumble--

The ferocious wheels spun rapidly, and the chariot rolled over the canal with a huge sense of oppression and crashed straight into Jilan.

Just at this moment.

Ding!
A penetrating sound rang out, echoing throughout the entire sewer, even drowning out the rumbling sound of the chariot.

'Ten minutes are up.'

Ji Lan secretly thought.

Renault, the lamp keeper outside, flicked the lamp with his fingers. The clear sound penetrated the nightmare and entered the nightmare.

'Banlan, leave. '

He called out in his heart.

wow——

The chariot that had rushed in front of him seemed to turn into a phantom, passing through Jilan's body and disappearing without a trace.

"Mr. Gillan!"

Maiev called out in concern.

Gillan turned around and saw that everyone was staring at him intently.

He walked up to the crowd.

"What's the situation?" Ms. Theresa asked in a deep voice. "Have you found the core of the nightmare?"

The others also looked over with concern.

"Yes, I found it. The core is the wooden wheel on the guard's back, which I have destroyed."

Gillan nodded and said.

Everyone, including Ms. Theresa, was stunned.

Destroyed...

That's it again!

Once again, Mr. Gillan single-handedly destroyed the nightmare core during the advance exploration!

The guides of the rest of the gravedigger team will be considered qualified if they can keep their lives during the exploration. If they can further find the location of the core, it will be a great achievement.

However, for Mr. Gillan, finding and destroying the core alone seems to have become the norm.

But the problem is...

What they are dealing with now is the "Second Level Nightmare Monument" left behind by a Level 5 Long-lived Being!

The core of his nightmare was solved so easily by Mr. Gillan alone!

Shock appeared on everyone's faces one after another, and their eyes were filled with joy.

"Great!" Maiev's cheeks flushed with excitement, and she couldn't help but smile: "Mr. Gillan, you are still so reliable!"

"I never thought that you could easily find and destroy the core of the 'Second Level Nightmare Monument'..."

Ms. Theresa sighed.

"Jilan, you've been a great help. Apart from you and me, the rest of the team are only at level 3. If we face a Nightmare Guard at its peak strength, I'm afraid we won't be able to contend with it."

"After this trip, Chairman Pala will most likely transfer you to another group as the person in charge."

As she spoke, the gray-haired lady expressed her approval and appreciation without reservation.

Jilan just shook his head, and under everyone's admiring gaze, he revealed the information about the nightmare in the monument:
"It's a sewer scene, the environment is a bit dark and cramped, and the space for movement is limited. The guard is in the form of a steel chariot, and will gallop freely in the aisle... Its destructive power is extremely strong, so it is recommended not to be crushed head-on."

"In addition, on the main body of the chariot, there is a half-body old man, whose arms can transform into chain saw blades and iron hooks. His speed and strength are very terrifying, at least reaching the general 4th level."

"The most important point is that the guard's attack carries strong soul damage... Even if it is damaged, it will be rebounded to the attacker through soul means."

"This..." The tall Mugur opened his mouth in shock, his face solemn, "So difficult?!"

Everyone looked shocked.

Kaya put one hand on her waist and lifted her ponytail with the other hand, and said in a deep voice:
"It is worthy of being called the 'Second Level Nightmare Monument'... No, it should be said that it is worthy of being Master Aldin's nightmare monument."

“It’s really very difficult!”

Everyone couldn't help but look at the blond young man again.

Noticing the other person's calm expression, I secretly admired him.

Facing such a strong guard alone, Mr. Gillan destroyed its core in ten minutes and woke up unscathed! The four reserve members of the cult, including Holden, looked at each other without saying a word, but they all saw the shock on each other's faces.

Although they were not gravediggers, they were all familiar with the Nightmare Monument. After years of wandering in the mysterious realm and reaching the third level step by step, how could they not know how terrifying it was...

What's more, it is the nightmare monument of a 5th-level master of spiritual studies and a great magician.

For some reason, Holden looked at Buvig and Haridan. The two noticed his gaze and turned their heads away in embarrassment.

When they first arrived, the two had a conflict with Mr. Gillan because they refused to be assigned to the new position... Now it seems that they were just clowns who overestimated their own abilities.

The other party possesses such terrifying strength. If they were a little more irritable, they might really be killed on the spot!

"Mr. Gillan, would you like to take a break?"

Ms. Theresa asked with concern.

After learning about the nightmare in the monument, she knew very well that it would be quite difficult for her, a level 4 who was not good at actual combat, to go in with several level 3s.

There may even be irreparable casualties.

Therefore, Gillan became an indispensable part.

"Well, take a five-minute break."

Jilan did not try to refuse and nodded.

It’s not that he was injured or tired, but to be on the safe side, he planned to immediately swallow and absorb the kingdom seal he had just obtained to gain greater strength.

"Is five minutes enough?" Ms. Theresa looked at her watch and hesitated for a moment before saying, "How about taking a half-hour break until you have recovered your strength?"

"No need." Jilan waved his hand. "The sooner we can get rid of this nightmare monument, the sooner we can feel at ease."

Hearing this, everyone was impressed.

Jilan glanced at the natives standing idly by, walked to the big rock on the other side, sat down and closed his eyes.

He controlled his consciousness and sank rapidly.

In just one breath, he fell asleep while sitting.

Gilan came to his own spiritual kingdom.

Under the dark night, he walked briskly along the stone path, passed the wooden street lamps and the pentagonal wall clock, and walked into the open-air stone hall.

The Cross Sword Bonfire was still there, and five spiral stone pillars of varying lengths stood around it like five fingers.

However, on the stone pillar in front of him, except for the "Mad King" sitting on the "Thumb" throne like a sculpture, the rest of the seats were empty.

Members of the secret society "Hand of Dawn" did not come.

Jilan wasted no time and walked straight to the Cross Sword Bonfire, raising his hand to summon Master Aldin's Level 5 Kingdom Seal.

hum!
The colorful mysterious mark seemed to be a physical entity, spinning non-stop above his palm. At the same time, it continuously emitted dazzling light as it rotated.

"Go." Jilan threw his hand.

The colored imprint flew straight into the bonfire.

Suddenly, the flames seemed to have received a powerful fuel supplement and burned violently.

raging! !
The bonfire formed a spiral column of fire that shot up into the sky like a fire tornado!

The height of the fire column was much higher than before, even reaching twenty or thirty meters, illuminating almost the entire island of the mind.

The scorching temperature radiated all around, and at that moment, everything Jilan saw seemed to have turned into golden red.

He felt a very obvious feedback.

It is a special power generated after it devoured Master Aldin's 5th-level Kingdom Mark.

The "Mad King" seemed to feel the call of his heart and slowly stood up from the throne.

An inexplicable wind blew past, lifting his scarlet cloak, making it flutter.

Click...

Kaka.

On the gray stone armor of the "Mad King" covered with reliefs and patterns, there appeared pale bones as decorations.

A skeletal hand emerged from the shoulder armor on each of its shoulders, grasping and clasping the shoulders.

The sternum and ribs are symmetrically distributed on the chest.

The corresponding bone parts also appeared on the surface of the elbow pads, knee pads and shin guards.

The most obvious thing is that from the collar to the neck guard of the "Mad King", there are jagged and criss-crossed outward-turned fangs growing out from the gray stone armor!
It looks like a white fur collar or the ruff collar of a medieval noble, but it looks more ferocious and oppressive.

Bear!
In the center of the crown on the "Mad King's" head, an egg-sized skull appeared, grinning fiercely, and two tiny green flames burned in the empty eye sockets.

"The power of the wheel of crucifixion, the crown of the soul."

Iros raised his head slowly and hissed.

He held up his square-headed stone hammer.

next second.

Click, click, click!
I saw that the square-headed stone hammer expanded further, like a whole tombstone.

A wooden crucifixion wheel is embedded on the top of the hammer head. The edge of the exposed half of the wooden wheel is inlaid with triangular saw blades, and the inner ring is covered with dense ancient Hieroglyphs, all of which are hymns praising the "Lamentable Virgin Mary" of the August Hour.

Gilan witnessed the entire transformation of the "Mad King" Ilos and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

He knew that he had become stronger again.

This time, it wasn't just the stability of the mind that was improved...

Under the effect of "Colorful", he also gained a new ability that is exclusive to the "Player" essence, and its name is -

'The Heart is Coming.'

Ji Lan secretly thought.

His deep eyes reflected the firelight, and there was a hint of shock and expectation in his eyes.

This new ability is very powerful.

No, it should be said that it is ridiculously strong!
But on the contrary, the consumption after turning it on is huge!
With his current physical and mental strength, he can only last for 30 seconds.

Once the time limit is exceeded, it will cause double damage to Gillan's body and mind, and even leave extremely serious sequelae.

The characteristics of this ability made Jilan think of his gaming experience in his previous life.

"This new ability...maybe it would be more appropriate to call it "big size"."

He smiled and secretly complained.

The spiral column of fire that shot straight into the sky slowly sank, and the fire gradually died down, causing the Cross Sword Bonfire to return to its original state.

Gillan took a deep breath.

'Another trump card, great!'

...

...

The nameless island surrounded by the sea of ​​blood was silent under the cover of night.

The moonlight shines down, making the island look like it is covered with a veil.

The back of the island.

A medium-sized whaling ship slowly docked, and more than a dozen figures jumped out from it and landed on the mudflat.

These people were all wearing brown-red nun robes with white linen shirts underneath and hoods, with only a few strands of long hair showing.

One of them had bright and pretty features, but her expression was a little reserved and nervous. She was none other than Aurora Lowry, the "Middle Finger" Red Sparrow, a member of the "Hand of Dawn" secret society.

"Vice President Alida, what do you need me to do next?"

Aurora took two steps forward, followed closely behind the leading nun, and asked cautiously.

"You are a trainee sent by the Holy Sisters to our Iron Maidens. You don't need to participate in the actual battle. You can just follow and watch the whole process."

Alida, who is called the vice president, is a woman with a cold face and indifferent eyes.

His mouth and nose were covered by a steel mask, and he spoke in ventriloquy.
