Chapter 238 Ancient Altar (Please subscribe, please recommend)
After spitting out the seed, the light on the surface of the bloody vine suddenly weakened a lot.
If the blood-colored vines before were as smooth as if they were waxed, then the blood-colored vines now look wilted as a whole, as if they were withered due to lack of water for a long time.
"This guy likes you so much? He even gave you the seed?" The head nurse looked at the seed in Lin Yi's hand, with a flash of surprise in her eyes.
You know, Dr. Kate had tried hard to get a seed from the bloody vine before but without success.
The bloody vine needs to consume its own vitality to condense its seeds, which is a very damaging thing to its origin.
If Lin Yi hadn't kept feeding it food and won the bloody vine's high favorability, it wouldn't have been willing to hand over this precious seed.
The reason why Dr. Kate is eager to obtain the seeds of the bloody vine is because the seeds have the characteristics of symbiosis with the host.
Once symbiotic with the bloody vines, Dr. Kate can move freely during the day without worrying about the threat of sunlight.
Lin Yi looked at the blood-colored vine's somewhat languid state, knowing that the condensed seeds had caused considerable damage to it.
In order to reward this little guy, Lin Yi took out a few more roast chickens and placed them on the ground.
The bloody vine used its branches and leaves to dexterously roll up the food on the ground, and then slowly retreated under the ground.
Obviously, the process of condensing the seeds this time requires it to take a long time to recuperate.
"It's time for us to set off. Although it's going to get dark soon, on Fate Island today, it doesn't make much difference whether it's dark or not." The head nurse seemed to be able to sense the sky outside the thick fog and looked up. Sky.
In the thick fog next to the hospital, there was a faint roar of a monster.
Since the power of the ancient gods was collected by the ancient altar, the behavior of monsters on the island has become more violent.
After leaving the hospital, the head nurse led the way.
The strange thing is that there are very few monsters along the way, and the howls of monsters can hardly be heard. It seems that even the monsters on the horror island are unwilling to approach that dangerous place.
The head nurse held a scalpel and chopped off the thorns and withered branches blocking the way.
The road leading to the ancient altar has not been traveled for too long. The road is overgrown and difficult to pass.
Fortunately, there was a head nurse clearing the way ahead, otherwise Lin Yi and the others might have spent a lot of effort to reach their destination.
Half an hour later, the head nurse stopped, pointed to the stone road deep into the thick fog in the distance and said, "Here we are, here is the altar of the gods."
Shrouded in thick fog, Lin Yi stared at the strange soil in front of him.
It is no longer a vibrant tan, but a barren gray and black, as if it has been swallowed up by the power of darkness, sucking away all vitality.
Lin Yi squatted down and lightly touched the soil with his fingertips.
A cold and stiff feeling instantly spread from his fingertips throughout his body, as if Lin Yi had touched the edge of death.
The surrounding thick fog seems to bear witness to the silence of this land. They flow slowly, but they cannot take away the deathly silence and heaviness of this soil.
"The one who should have been moving forward before was probably the one who woke up, which caused the erosion to become stronger." The head nurse calculated and found that the erosion speed had become faster.
According to normal calculations, the erosion of the ancient altar is expanding outward at a rate of about one meter per year.
But the situation in these two days was obviously unusual. The erosion rate accelerated sharply, far exceeding the range of previous expectations. "I won't be able to move forward anymore." The head nurse said frankly, "The power of my blood is preventing me from going deep. The next task will be left to you."
The head nurse said it very straightforwardly. She divided the blood collected previously into three parts, put them into three small bottles respectively, and handed them to Lin Yi and the others.
Lin Yi and the others took the bottle containing the blood of the evil monster and hung it around their necks.
In an instant, the three of them felt an indescribable force covering their bodies.
The power of the ancient god seemed to be trying to corrode Lin Yi, but as soon as the power of the ancient god invaded Lin Yi's body, he was beaten by the power of the abyss in his body and then driven out.
In terms of corrosiveness, no one would dare to claim the second place in the power of the abyss, let alone such a thin power of the ancient gods.
Compared with Lin Yi, Zuolun and People's Teacher were not so lucky.
They could feel that the power of the ancient gods was eroding their bodies at an extremely slow speed, eating away at their energy.
If the small bottle containing the blood of the evil monster is not removed from their necks in time, I am afraid that their bodies will be completely assimilated by the ancient god's energy, and they will eventually become the same existence as the monsters on this island.
"After entering the ancient altar, remember not to take this thing off." The head nurse warned seriously. "It can temporarily cover your breath and prevent you from being discovered by a large number of monsters. But remember, once you encounter a monster, this The thing cannot completely guarantee your safety, after all, it is just the blood of the evil monster."
After saying that, she took a few steps back and made way for Lin Yi and the others to move forward.
Lin Yi held a long sword to open the way in front, and the revolver broke behind. The three of them slowly moved forward in the thick fog. Soon, the three figures disappeared into the thick fog.
The head nurse stared at the direction in which they disappeared and couldn't help but sigh.
She didn't know if Lin Yi and the others could solve the existence of the ancient altar. If the three of them failed, the entire Terror Island would not be able to escape the fate of being destroyed by that existence.
None of this comes from the original intention of that being.
But the arrival of the ancient gods means that ordinary creatures are not even qualified to get close.
In the thick fog, Lin Yi walked forward for about a few hundred meters and heard a buzzing sound coming from nearby. This sound immediately aroused Lin Yi's alert.
This buzzing sound was extremely familiar to Lin Yi. It instantly evoked Lin Yi's memory of encountering a cave humanoid reptile in an abandoned village.
Lin Yi immediately turned around and made a "quiet" and "alert" gesture to his teammates, indicating that they should remain on high alert.
The revolver also captured unusual movement. Judging from the direction of the sound, the sound source came from their upper left, and the sound was approaching rapidly.
Ten seconds later, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground shocked the three people's eardrums.
Immediately afterwards, a twisted and terrifying monster broke into Lin Yi's sight.
This monster is similar to a cave crawler, but more terrifying in appearance.
Its arms were as dry as firewood, its skin clung to its bones, and its face was covered by a layer of hard bone armor, making it impossible to see its true appearance.
Its limbs were degenerated like an insect, but the power it displayed was astonishingly great.
Lin Yi noticed that when the monster was crawling, its claws dug deeply into the rocks on the ground, leaving a series of deep claw marks.
