Global Dungeon: My Support Is Too Strong Webnovel - Chapter 558
558 Ancient Castle
Lu Benwei walked along the mountain road, constantly groping his way forward.
The corpses on the ground gradually increased, and the deeper they went, the colder it became.
Soon, the group arrived at a cave. The scene inside made their hair stand on end.
The ceiling of the cave and the stone walls on both sides shone with a dazzling bloody light. Fresh blood kept dripping down.
“Someone’s there?” the crocodile asked.
!!
Lu Benwei activated his Eye of Insight and searched carefully. He found that other than the four of them, there was no aura of other living beings.
“How is it?” Everyone looked at him eagerly.
“Nothing.” Lu Benwei shook his head. “There are no living beings. This blood was left behind a hundred years ago.”
“And there’s a cave ahead that leads to the main peak of this mountain range.”
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief and let down their guard.
According to the guidance given by the Ice Lotus, the Snow Lotus Seed should be on the main peak ahead.
Everyone quickened their pace and headed to another cave entrance.
Along the way, they found many corpses lying on the ground. Some were humans, some were monsters.
‘Could it really be like what the Blood Monster said, that a hundred years ago, the ice field was full of vitality, and all living things were competing for life, and all races lived here?’ Lu Benwei thought.
“Look, this corpse is different!” the crocodile suddenly shouted.
Everyone walked over.
One of the corpses was like the golem that the crocodile had fought before. It had many legs and arms. The only difference was that this corpse had a few more heads than the golem. Its cold fangs made its face look extremely ferocious.
Lu Benwei reached out to touch it, but in the next second, the monster’s body moved.
Many white bone arms waved at high speed, making cracking sounds as they attacked Lu Benwei.
Everyone was shocked and quickly retreated.
Lu Benwei did not panic. He swung his right fist and unleashed explosive power, turning the monster’s corpse into dust.
At the moment of the explosion, the corpse exploded with a powerful aura, almost injuring Lu Benwei.
This was a level-90 king. Even though a hundred years had passed, its power was still preserved until now. Unfortunately, a long time had passed, and the once insufferably arrogant king had also turned into dust, dissipating in the wind.
They were the same as the monster’s corpse in front of them. When Lu Benwei approached, they all came to life.
However, it was quickly suppressed by the old beggar and the others. After they died, they erupted with a powerful aura, causing the entire mountain to rumble.
“Strange, after the corpses of these humans and monsters resurrected, they didn’t attack us. Instead, they attacked the corpses of those monsters.” The Blood Demon Prince discovered something unusual.
“I understand now. The humans and monsters are fighting here!” the crocodile said.
Lu Benwei nodded in agreement.
However, a new problem arose. What were these monsters? Where did they come from, and why did they come?
Lu Benwei and the other three did not have time to think about this problem and continued to move forward.
After walking for about an hour, everyone found the exit and heard the sound of flowing water!
“It’s the ice river!”
The crocodile was the fastest and walked out of the cave before Lu Benwei.
Lu Benwei and the others also walked out of the cave and saw an ice river flowing from the main peak to the ground. There was ice floating on it and flowing down the river.
The crocodile patted his belly in delight and jumped down. He liked to be clean and had never been able to take a good shower after following Lu Benwei for so many days.
Lu Benwei was about to stop him when he heard the crocodile’s terrified roar. He rushed up like a rocket.
“Cold… Corpses!”
The crocodile shivered as soon as he came ashore. His golden skin began to corrode from his feet.
Lu Benwei said as he healed the crocodile, “Crocodile, what did you see down there?”
“What else? They’re all corpses! I drank a stomach full of corpse water!” the crocodile retched as he spoke, “And the water below is extremely cold. Even I can’t withstand it!”
Lu Benwei was surprised.
The crocodile had thick skin and flesh, so even the cold could not do anything to it. To freeze him, it had to be at a temperature of tens of degrees below zero.
At that temperature, the entire ice river would be completely frozen, and it would not be able to form the current situation where the river was flowing.
The old beggar patted him on the shoulder and whispered, “Don’t think too much. This mountain range cannot be analyzed based on what we see and hear. Let’s take it one step at a time.”
Lu Benwei nodded, and the group went up the river. They advanced silently; their hearts heavy.
Countless corpses floated down from the main peak. There were humans, monsters, and mysterious creatures.
One corpse after another, each with a different appearance. Some were bitten by the monsters and were badly mutilated. Some of them had their bodies pierced through, and their deaths were extremely tragic.
The temperature on the main peak was extremely cold, so the faces of these corpses were preserved. However, in the eyes of Lu Benwei and the others, they felt sinister and ferocious.
They quickened their pace, and Lu Benwei said in a low voice, “The main peak is probably the ancient battlefield. I can feel the power of the ancient king.”
When everyone heard this, their expressions became even more solemn.
Sure enough, as Lu Benwei said, the closer they got to the main peak, the more ferocious the death aura became.
Apart from the old beggar, Lu Benwei and the other two had no choice but to circulate the power of their bloodlines to resist this powerful aura of death.
However, the old beggar had his own way of dealing with it. He opened his mouth and took a deep breath. His cheeks puffed up, and he looked like a toad.
This move used stillness to stop the movement. The body stored energy to contain the power. As long as the power of death arrived, it would immediately launch an incomparably fierce force to offset it.
Lu Benwei continued deeper into the main peak, and his vision gradually widened.
On the peak of the main peak, there was a huge lake. It was dozens of miles in circumference and was as vast as the sea.
The water was clear and deep, sparkling like jade. The incandescent sunlight shone on the surface of the water, like a layer of silver gauze covering the surface of the lake.
Layers of mist lingered around. Coupled with the white snow mountain in the distance and the clear lake water, they formed a beautiful painting.
Lu Benwei and the other three were in a fairyland, and time seemed to have stopped.
However, very soon, the sparkling light from the center of the lake was accompanied by a violent explosion.
“Crocodile!” Lu Benwei shouted in a deep voice.
The crocodile instantly understood what he meant. He opened his mouth and blew out a strong gust of wind, blowing away the mist on the lake.
A small island in the middle of the lake appeared in everyone’s sight. There was a huge ancient castle in the middle of the island.
It was a circular castle, looking like a flying saucer from science fiction. The walls were covered in mold, emitting a strange and terrifying aura.
