Chapter 3844 Undercurrent Dog
Walking in the ruins park, they saw quite a few tourists.
However, almost 70 percent of these tourists went to the underground area, and the remaining small number, although still in the surface area, almost all went to the dog fighting arena.
The battlefield, shooting range and arena are almost deserted.
As for the reasons, according to Angle, most of them are caused by external competition.
The Wandering House opened a "simulated arena" in the Eighth Town. It is located under the Tomb Street and is an indoor arena. However, it covers a large area and has not only individual competitions but also team competitions.
The ruins battlefield is actually a kind of "team competition", which is a real-life role-playing confrontation war.
When the Wandering House opened the simulated arena, it naturally formed a competitive relationship with the Ruins Battlefield.
Although the Ruins Battlefield is just a "name", it is truly a ruin with almost no high-tech means.
Even communication had to be done by shouting, and dispatch was all about eye contact. Whether the enemy was successfully "killed" could only be known after the battle, by looking to see if the enemy was stained with ammunition paint.
Everything is extremely primitive.
But the "simulated arena" is not like this. Not only is it large in scope, it can also simulate various scenes through holographic projection.
Each participant will receive a holographic map after entering, and this map also marks the location of their own personnel and the number of enemy personnel.
Battle scheduling can also be done through special communicators set up in the arena.
The most important thing is that there is a kill list above the simulated arena that everyone can see. Whenever someone successfully "kills" an enemy member, it will be immediately displayed on the kill list.
Obviously, there are dispatchers in the arena who have a global view and can analyze the battle results in different areas in real time.
In this way, questions like "whether the person was killed" and "who is responsible for the kill" will not arise.
Faced with such a simulated arena full of high technology, the people of the Eighth Town will naturally abandon the extremely primitive ruins of the battlefield.
Of course, there are also people who like this original style.
But the support of one or two people is not enough to keep the ruins battlefield going.
In short, whether it is individual competition, team competition, or even shooting-related events, the first thing that everyone thinks of is the "simulated arena."
Firstly, the supervision of the homeless house is guaranteed. Secondly, having high-end equipment to enjoy is definitely much better than being a primitive man.
This led to the decline of all "competitive" aspects of the Ruins Park.
Except...the dog fighting ring.
But dog fighting arenas have not declined, and it is mainly related to gambling.
As for the underground area of the Ruined Paradise, it is definitely impossible for it to decline. It is even getting bigger and bigger. Even the magicians from the Wandering House will occasionally come here to enjoy special services.
While Angel was thinking about the ruined battlefield, they had already passed through the collapsed buildings and came to a relatively flat area, which could also be called a "plain."
And here is the "Ruins Battlefield"!
The entire ruined battlefield is surrounded by thorny iron nets, which were fences set up when this place was still hot to prevent outsiders from entering.
But now, although the thorn fence is still there, most of it is broken.
Not far from them, there was a broken gap into which they could step directly.
After stepping into the ruined battlefield, you will be greeted by a dilapidated wall.
Although most of the area here is plain, there are some buildings that are not rotten, such as the dilapidated wall in front.
Angel glanced at the wall from a distance and said silently, "Go around it."
At first Gleipnir was a little confused. Didn't Angel say before that the ceremony site could be reached by walking straight ahead? Why did they suddenly have to take a detour?
When she went around to one side and glanced casually towards the wall of the ruins, she immediately understood.
A hot girl in leather clothes and holding a whip was sitting on a high wall of the ruins; and right below her, there was a man in a fully-enclosed black latex suit, kneeling on all fours, with a dog chain tied around his neck.
Gleipnir: “…”
Nice play with flowers.
As Angel walked forward, he whispered, "As far as I know, the Ruins Battlefield is not completely empty. Occasionally, some guests in the underground area have special tastes and like role-playing. They will choose some open-air environments, but they are afraid of being seen, so they will come to the Ruins Battlefield."
After all, everyone knows that the ruined battlefield is deserted, empty and deserted.
"Occasionally, people from the dog fighting arena will come over to have open-air dog fights here."
After a pause, Angel continued, "There is a creature called Undercurrent Dog near the ritual site I chose. They are not dogs from the dog fighting arena, but they appear here because they are attracted by the aura produced during the dog fighting."
Fighting dogs are very ferocious and have a strong aura, which can easily attract some dogs in estrus.
The Undercurrent Dog was attracted by this.
"Undercurrent Hounds?" Gleipnir: "Will they have any effect on the ritual?"
Angel: "Just drive them away before the ceremony."
Undercurrent dogs are water dogs that are afraid of light and like to live in dark underground water. There happened to be a water hole in the cellar, so when the time comes, drive the undercurrent dog down and cover the water hole.
Although Gleipnir didn't know the specifics, she trusted Angel's judgment.
It wasn't long before they reached the top of the cellar.
They didn't meet anyone else along the way, and the man and woman at the beginning of the ruins battlefield seemed to be just an accident.
The location of the cellar was also a dilapidated ruin, but the walls were even more dilapidated than the previous ruins. There was not even a wall here, and only some ground piles that were less than half the height of the original could be seen.
The cellar was located under the rubble of the ruins.
It is precisely because it is pressed down by the broken stones of the ruins that no one has come here for many years, making this cellar meet the prerequisite for holding the ceremony.
After using his magic hands to clear away the surrounding rubble, Angel pushed open the stone lid covering the cellar.
As the lid moved away, a musty and rotten smell came from below.
If you listen carefully, you can hear a few low and distant "woof woof" sounds of dogs and the rustling of water.
They waited at the entrance of the cellar for a while, and after the smell had dissipated, they went down to the bottom of the cellar along the nearly vertical ladder.
This cellar is relatively large, with several dug-out compartments.
The whole place was relatively empty, but the ground was very moist. Even though there was no "light" around, Gleipnir could already smell the thick water vapor on the ground.
At this moment, Gleipnir suddenly heard Angel's voice ringing in his ears.
"Let go of your thoughts first. I will project the surrounding situation into your mind space."
Gleipnir didn't ask Angel what he was going to do, but nodded.
Soon, she sensed that an illusion node had merged into the center of her eyebrows.
As soon as the illusion node entered the thinking space, it immediately turned into an illusion projection.
What was projected was the real-time image of the current cellar. Even the "first-person perspective" of this real-time image was from Gleipnir himself.
In other words, even if Gleipnir didn't open her eyes, she could move freely in the cellar through the projection in her mind space.
"I've talked to Xiaolu before. Since the ceremony needs to be held in a 'lightless place', it's best not to see light here before the ceremony begins."
"And if there is to be light here, it can only be the light from the 'Sacrifice of Light'."
That is to say, before the ceremony begins, there must be lasting darkness here.
Angel didn't care whether the surroundings were dark or not, because he had a God's perspective; but Gleipnir didn't, so Angel found another way and directly projected the situation in the cellar into Gleipnir's mind using illusion.
Moreover, this illusion changes and updates in real time, which means that Gleipnir will not have any problems even if he moves here with his eyes closed.
"If there is no light at all, it would be best to close the cellar lid as well," said Gleipnir.
Angel: “It’s already covered.”
Although Gleipnir did not open her eyes, she subconsciously raised her head. The projection in her mind space also showed the perspective of looking up.
Looking from this angle, I could see that the cellar lid had indeed been replaced.
Gleipnir opened his eyes and looked again, but... he couldn't see anything.
Only by closing your eyes and using the projection of your mind space can you see the surrounding environment clearly...
"Are you able to adapt to this?" Angel: "If not, I will take care of the rituals here."
Although this ceremony is relatively simple, the necessary rituals are still required.
This includes the ceremony process, the arrangement of ceremony props, the decoration of the ceremony venue, the positions of ceremony personnel... and so on.
Gleipnir shook his head: "No."
"Although it feels a bit strange, I can adapt to it." Gleipnir said, and he took out a long strip of cloth from his cloak, closed his eyes tightly, and covered them with the cloth.
That way, she could operate purely on her cranial vision.
Gleipnir took about a minute to adjust to the situation and moved around a small area in the compartment. After making sure there was no problem, he said to Angel, "It's OK. You can 'see' now."
Angel: "If we can see it, we'll go in."
Where they were was just a small compartment with a door in front. Pushing it open led to the deeper part of the cellar.
However, this door was already more than half broken, with a hole eaten away at the bottom.
If nothing unexpected happens, it must have been bitten by the undercurrent dog living here.
"After closing my eyes, my hearing became sharper." Gleipnir paused, "I seemed to hear a dog barking, to my left."
Ingres pushed open the tattered wooden door.
Outside was a very narrow dirt road with two compartments on the left and one compartment on the right.
The one on the right is larger and more enclosed.
That was the location chosen by Ingres for the ceremony.
As for the two compartments on the left, the door of one of the compartments was not closed, and a dark shadow came out and pounced towards Gleipnir.
If Gleipnir had observed with his naked eyes, he would have seen nothing. But in Angel's full intracranial vision live broadcast, she could clearly see the shape of the black shadow.
Overall, it looks like a purple and black thin dog, but the eye area has completely degenerated, leaving only an eye socket and mung bean eyes that are not much bigger than rice grains.
But its mouth became larger and full of sharp teeth.
Two of the sharp teeth have become "fangs", like wild boar's tusks, turning to the sides.
However, at least the wild boar tusks will not hurt its mouth.
The two huge fangs of this small dog pierced directly through the walls of the mouth, looking extremely terrifying.
If nothing unexpected happens, this is the undercurrent dog that lives underwater all year round.
This undercurrent dog was extremely ferocious. It pounced on Gleipnir and bit him directly on the neck, obviously treating him as its prey.
However, Gleipnir is no pushover.
Although their strength was only one tenth of what it was in the Dream Crystal Origin, it was still easy for them to deal with these mindless beasts.
She just tiptoed and spun at an extremely unscientific angle, then disappeared from the sight of the undercurrent dog.
The Undercurrent Dog's beast instinct made it sense that something was wrong.
But it was in mid-air at this time and couldn't move at all. Even if it turned its body, it could only twist slightly.
Just when the undercurrent dog was eager to land, a crutch hit the undercurrent dog's head like thunder.
With a "bang", the Undercurrent Dog was stunned and fell to the ground with its head.
Stirring up dust like ripples.
After the dust settled, Undercurrent Dog whimpered and could no longer get up.
But it wasn't dead yet, it just fainted.
Originally, Gleipnir wanted to kill the Darkhound, and his target was its waist, but he remembered that the ritual would be performed soon.
"Blood" and "death" represent very important symbols in any ceremony.
There is a huge difference between a ritual that involves blood and a ritual that does not involve blood.
In order to avoid the ritual from going astray due to "blood" and "death", Gleipnir finally changed the target of attack from the "tofu waist" to the "copper head" of the undercurrent dog.
Hitting the head makes the person dazed but no blood comes out.
Gleipnir has a very good sense of proportion.
However, before Gleipnir could recover, several more sounds of wind appeared from behind.
The intracranial vision could rotate 360 degrees, and she could clearly see that four more dogs were attacking from behind, three of which pounced on her, and the other attacked towards Angel.
The three dogs that pounced on her were all aiming for her aorta.
The dog that pounced on Ingres was just dealing with Ingres.
Obviously, these undercurrent dogs also have a division of labor. They attack the "old and weak" first, and when the "old and weak" are gone, they can attack the only young and strong man together.
If this tactic is used against other people, there is still a chance of winning.
But facing them is meaningless.
Angel tapped the ground lightly with his feet. The sound triggered the surrounding illusion nodes and an invisible air wave quickly spread out.
Whether it was the Undercurrent Hound that was dealing with Angel, or the three Undercurrent Hounds that pounced on Gleipnir, they were all frozen by the air wave.
The next second, like a frozen rain, they staggered and fainted on the ground.
