Wizard of science

Looking at the sudden entrance, the group looked at each other with some hesitation.

But in the end, I mustered up the courage to file in and go inside.

Going all the way deeper, Li He could feel that he was traveling diagonally downward. After walking like this for more than ten minutes, he felt that he had penetrated hundreds of meters below the surface, and a huge underground space appeared.

The depth and width cannot be measured, and the height is more than ten meters high. The top is inlaid with fluorite that emits light yellow light. I don’t know if there is energy that has been exhausted for too long. The brightness is very low, and it cannot have much effect at all. The illuminating effect is, at best, an embellishment on everyone's heads.

This obviously could not satisfy everyone's needs. The group of people cast spells one after another, summoning red, green, or purple light groups to illuminate the surroundings.

But there seems to be a special law in the underground space. No matter what lighting spells everyone casts, the light can only spread thirty meters. No matter how far away you are, you will be swallowed by darkness.

The second-level wizard apprentice girl in Thorn Valley blinked her eyes, took out a palm-sized lantern, which should be a demonized item, and injected energy into it to light it up.

An extremely bright orange light was released, but it only spread the light to a range of about thirty-five meters.

Is light restricted... Li He thought... is it because of the medium through which light propagates? Or maybe something else?

"There seems to be some disturbance here." The girl from Thorn Valley said in a serious tone.

Frank nodded in approval and quickly issued a warning: "Everyone, be careful, gather together and don't separate."

Everyone responded quickly, increased their vigilance, and forced themselves to explore slowly.

One minute...two minutes...ten minutes...

In the blink of an eye, more than twenty minutes passed. Everyone was slowly exploring in the darkness, but found nothing and couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

"You can't keep wandering around like this." said the first-level wizard apprentice of the White Bone Monastery.

The exploration speed began to speed up, and after more than ten minutes of careful exploration, a small house finally appeared in the field of vision.

Everyone carefully opened the door and looked into the light ball thrown into it. They found that it was just an empty room with a gray carpet on the floor and a worn-out crystal lamp hanging from the roof. There was nothing else.

"It's empty." The first-level apprentice of the White Bone Monastery who spoke before said, slightly disappointed, and walked in unwillingly to see if there was anything to take. He came to explore the treasure and did not want to encounter danger, but it would be even worse if there were no dangers and no precious things, resulting in nothing.

The boy from the Bone Monastery walked in, frowned slightly, glanced around, and found that it was really empty. He shook his head and turned around to walk out.

As a result, the moment he turned around, the carpet he was stepping on suddenly rolled up from the four corners to the middle, wrapping the boy from the Bone Monastery like a bundle.

"Damn it, this carpet is alive, save me!" The boy from the Bone Monastery shouted loudly, struggling violently in the carpet. But the force of the carpet was so great that he couldn't escape from it at all. It was even compressed a little, and he could vaguely hear the "click" sound of his bones being overwhelmed.

"Help!" Another second-level wizard apprentice from the Bone Monastery quickly shouted, rushed into the room, waved his hand at the carpet, and a ball of flame flew out, preparing to burn through the carpet.

But the carpet was thicker than expected, and there was a layer of stains on the surface. The flames burned on the surface, and it couldn't be burned through at all for a while.

When everyone saw the sudden change in the carpet, they were startled at first and reacted quickly. They rushed into the room and cast spells.

Ice picks, wind blades, and acid balls flew quickly towards the carpet.

The surface of the carpet was beginning to be damaged, but there was obviously still a long way to go before it could be completely destroyed and the people inside could be rescued.

At this time, the people inside could no longer hold on and screamed: "Hurry... save me... he is eating me, he is eating me... ah!"

Accompanied by a scream, the people in the carpet became silent.

The only remaining second-level wizard apprentice in the Bone Monastery became anxious. He shouted, pointed at the carpet, and uttered a spell quickly and quickly: "Kree...Nars!"

"Crack!"

The index finger, middle finger and ring finger of the extended hand were suddenly broken and detached, like three flying knives flying towards the carpet.

There was a "stab" sound, and the carpet was cut open by three fingers.

In an instant, the carpet seemed to have been drained of its life force and returned to the state of an ordinary carpet, unfolding loosely.

Looking over, he saw that the person who was wrapped before had been dead for a long time. Under the compression of the carpet, all the bones in the body were broken, the flesh and blood were blurred, and the human form was almost invisible. At the same time, when the carpet was wrapped, it seemed that some kind of transparent corrosive mucus was secreted. The places where the corpse and the carpet were in contact were dissolving to varying degrees. It seemed that the entire body would be melted away in a short time.

Damn it!

The only remaining second-level wizard apprentice in the White Bone Monastery looked extremely ugly. He gritted his teeth and recited the spell again: "...Nomoraku...Buno...Fars!"

It took a long time to finish the long spell. With a flick of his hand, a ball of pale white flame flew out and landed on the carpet.

The entire carpet burst into flames, and soon all the bodies were burned away, leaving only a very fine layer of ashes on the ground.

The second-level wizard apprentice of the White Bone Monastery collected the ashes into a small cloth bag, looked at everyone, and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry everyone, I didn't expect this to happen as soon as I entered the treasure. Char is dead, and I must put him If you take the ashes back, I won’t accompany you on the rest of the exploration.”

After hearing this, Frank wanted to persuade, but the other party didn't give him a chance and walked towards the door.

Li He raised his eyebrows, sensing something, and wanted to remind him loudly.

But the second-level wizard apprentice of the White Bone Monastery moved faster and already had one foot out the door.

Just then, the door moved.

"Crack!"

The door of the room was like a big mouth that suddenly closed and bit the second-level wizard apprentice into two pieces. Blood splattered everywhere. The second-level wizard apprentice died on the spot.

"Crack, click, click!"

The door kept chewing, and soon the corpse was chewed into a ball of minced meat, which was then spit out and returned to normal, exactly like an ordinary door - if you ignore the thick blood flowing from the cracks in the door.

The faces of everyone in the room became ugly. They didn't expect that the inside of this treasure was so weird. Just a simple empty house could kill two people. They didn't dare to act rashly for a while.

After a while, someone said: "Have you noticed that this house only attacks people when someone wants to leave. The first time is when someone turns around from the carpet and wants to leave, and the second time is when he walks out the door."

Everyone thought about it carefully and found that it was really like this.

"So, as long as we stay in this house, we can be safe?" Frank guessed.

"But maybe, this is the real purpose of this house." Li He narrowed his eyes and said.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Everyone was confused.

"Have you not noticed that during our stay, the space inside the house is getting smaller and smaller? It wants to swallow us up!"

"What!"
