Arthur's threats worked as expected, and Gergrit rushed in with a roar.
Arthur and Olivia fired at the same time, but they didn't expect that at such a close distance, they still missed all the shots, and even allowed her to push Olivia to the ground.
Just when Gergrit was about to attack Arthur again, Arthur suddenly turned his gun and shot at the crucible.
At that moment, Grigrit appeared in front of the crucible and blocked Arthur's bullet.
In her expectation, human bullets would be very painful when hit on the body, but they would not be fatal. Unexpectedly, when the bullet hit the body this time, three superimposed five-pointed star rings immediately erupted.
Grigrit felt as if his body was tied up by countless invisible threads.
Arthur could still move his eyes, but she seemed completely frozen in time.
"We finally caught her, but what should we do?"
Olivia stood up and looked at Grigrit from front to back.
"They say witches are afraid of fire, how about we burn them with fire?"
Arthur felt that Gregor's idea was feasible, so the two of them smashed the kerosene lamp and set the entire hut on fire. The billowing smoke instantly rose in the deep forest.
As the fire burned on Gegrit's body, it finally destroyed the formation in the bullet, but at this time she had turned into a burning person, and the sound of howling miserably resounded through the entire mountain forest.
Seeing her struggling painfully in the fire, Olivia stepped forward and fired two more shots.
With Griggrit's death, Arthur could clearly feel that the shadows in the woods were gradually dispersing.
It's like this place has returned to reality again.
"how do you feel?"
“It was a nice adventure.”
Olivia said happily, holding Arthur's hand.
Seeing Olivia's excitement, Arthur always felt like he had released something bad inside her.
He couldn't help but persuade: "I still think you are more suitable for research work."
"Study magic?"
Arthur choked, "Well, this is more dangerous. I mean those invisible things will be more evil."
Obviously Olivia did not accept his suggestion, so Arthur could only do the next best thing, "You can research it, but promise me never to try to summon those demons, not even Raven Corvis. "
"Raven? I think it's harmless, and it helps you often."
Two encounters with the raven Corvis made Olivia look down upon her, but Arthur knew that it was the one who had beaten Brigitte, the Mother of Death, into flight.
So no demon can be despised, not to mention that Arthur has never trusted any demon, not even Corvis the Raven.
Arthur exaggerated the evil of the devil ten times, and finally made Olivia agree to his request.
The hut had been completely burned down, leaving only a puddle of humanoid ashes on the grass.
The entire mountain forest began to become clearer, but the cave was still extremely dark.
"It seems that we must destroy this place, otherwise we will be discovered by the people in the village, and I'm afraid what trouble will happen again!"
Arthur looked at the cave and said a little seriously. He really didn't want to cause too much unnecessary trouble.
As soon as the two entered the cave, Arthur's right arm suddenly felt the burning sensation again.
As they continued to go deeper, there was a red mist in the passage, constantly sucking in and out, as if the entire cave was breathing.
Olivia couldn't help but said in surprise: "Is this cave alive?"
Arthur didn't believe that the cave could become a living thing, but this reminded him of the out-of-body experience that occurred when he was nailed by the shackles of the Wheel of Time.
"It's possible that Grigrit's soul returned here and caused this phenomenon."
Arthur couldn't help but speculate.
The two of them covered their mouths and noses until they reached the cave. In the darkness, a huge stalagmite protruded in the middle, standing opposite to the stalagmites on the ground.
Arthur clearly remembered that the last time they came here, these two things were not available, and what was flowing from the stalagmite at this moment was not water, but bright red blood.
Between the two stalagmites, a blood cocoon formed, beating rhythmically like a heart.
While protecting Olivia and retreating, Arthur raised the gun and pulled the trigger.
"Bang!" There was a gunshot.
The blood cocoon was immediately beaten to pieces. As if struck by a sudden attack, a ghost-like wail could be heard faintly, and the breathing of the entire cave suddenly stopped.
"Destroyed it?"
Olivia asked excitedly.
Arthur checked his surroundings again, but was not sure.
"These demons are very cunning, I'd better check with my soul status."
Arthur found a clean place and leaned against Olivia. His soft body made Arthur have wild thoughts.
When he sank his thoughts into the calm lake and opened his eyes the next moment, he was already wandering with his soul.
This time it was unexpectedly smooth, and Arthur couldn't help but frown slightly.
Under the spiritual vision, Olivia was holding her body, and Arthur looked around again. At this moment, there was nothing strange about the entire cave.
Faintly, Arthur could feel something strange, but he couldn't find anything wrong. After observing carefully, when he was about to return to his body, he suddenly felt something strange on his arm.
Countless ciphertexts began to jump up and down, and Arthur understood immediately and quickly activated the nursery rhyme halo.
"Tsk!"
A tentacle shaped like an octopus was instantly sawed off by the nursery rhyme halo, and turned into fly ash in the blink of an eye under the blazing white flames, with several strange black runes floating in it.
After being calcined by the flame, it turned into light and text and was directly arranged in the halo.
Only then did Arthur realize that his and Olivia's bodies were both unconscious at the entrance of the cave.
It turned out that when I first entered the cave entrance, I had already fallen into a dream. Everything before was just a dream.
If the monster hadn't tried to eat him and awakened the rune on his right arm, I'm afraid he would still be in the dream.
With the sense of reality just now, Arthur was really not sure whether he could see through it.
As he pushed the five-pointed star array to its limit, the entire dream finally shattered. A naked, silver-haired, horned demon with fleshy wings was staring coldly at him with hateful eyes.
Although his appearance had changed, Arthur still recognized at once that this monster was the Gergrit who was killed by him and Olivia.
This also made him feel relieved. At least it proved that what happened in the hut before was indeed not an illusion.
At this time, tentacles began to stretch out from the four walls of the cave, but apart from being greasy and disgusting, these things could not enter his body at all.
Just then, Gegrit suddenly roared at Arthur: "Insect, how dare you kill the descendants of Morpheus, the nightmare will follow you forever!"
