Strange Voyage: Summoning the Fourth Disaster.

Chapter 661 The Cobblestone Road, the Road Builder

I saw the distant flames of war flickering back and forth.

Li Miao and Shang An immediately realized that this route could indeed only accommodate one person at a time.

Seeing the distant firelight disappear, they continued their journey and arrived once again at the Soul Cleansing Night Pool.

"Phew, damn it, I was suffocating. It's so annoying not being able to communicate in this dark." He breathed a sigh of relief after getting ashore.

Li Miao double-checked Aluga's direction of travel: "Fortunately, his direction of travel coincides with the guidance of the spirit candle."

"Okay, let's go."

"Hey, what's the rush? Tell me what you got from that sacrifice."

"Stop nagging, hurry up and explore, get closer, don't get lost."

Li Miao didn't have time to waste with him; he was now extremely curious about this hero, Aluga.

I don't know if the other person is already dead or...

After leaving the area of ​​the Soul Cleansing Night Pool.

Those who went ashore were unable to speak and were forced into silence.

Following in the footsteps of the hero Alucard, they soon emerged from the forest area near the Soul Cleansing Pool.

What followed was a dark cliff and a strange cobblestone path extending from it, its destination unknown.

The path of the hero Aluga is not in this direction.

But Li Miao couldn't help but stop and fix his gaze on a very old notice board.

There is no treasure ahead, please detour.

What the hell?

Is this a case of "the truth is hidden here" (another world version)?

Li Miao had something to say but didn't know how to express it.

Although it is unknown whether there is treasure ahead, or whether there is danger.

But he had to admit that the words on the sign did indeed catch his attention and pique his curiosity.

Meanwhile, Shang An was clearly losing control, constantly moving in and out of Li Miao's presence.

His meaning was quite clear...

Hurry in and find the treasure! There's treasure ahead!
Seeing his arrogant demeanor, Li Miao couldn't help but facepalm.

Why is this guy like a dog, wagging his tail nonstop whenever he smells something delicious?
Li Miao felt that this was most likely a trap.

However, he still decided to go and take a look.

Even if a player finds a jar of something that looks exactly like excrement in front of them, they'll still taste it with a spoon to see if it's salty enough, and gamble on the possibility that it's soybean paste...

After stepping onto the cobblestone path, Li Miao quickly discovered that the path was quite strange.

What he found strange was that he keenly observed something unusual growing within the pebbles on the ground, something that resembled a caterpillar.

The texture when you step on it doesn't feel like ordinary pebbles; instead, it's more like a hard shell.

However, the colors are bright and eye-catching, suggesting that there might be some hidden treasures along the way.

Li Miao bent down and squatted down to examine the pebbles carefully.

The spirit candle did not provide any information.

It seems these strange pebbles should be considered part of the dungeon's architecture.

Thinking of this, although he still had some doubts, he didn't dwell on them too much and continued forward.

As he moved forward.

The color of the cobblestone path began to change.

The once gleaming road began to be stained with blood, and broken bones started to appear along the roadside.

As they went deeper, they found more and more skeletons on the ground, and they became increasingly complete.

This place seems to have witnessed one fierce battle after another, spanning a vast period of time.

Li Miao seemed to be deep in thought.

Although the person who went ashore next to him couldn't speak, he kept looking left and right, seemingly busy even though he wasn't helping much.

The cobblestone path had turned a disturbing red.

until……

"Wow..."

Suddenly a strange sound came from ahead, as if something was giving birth or vomiting.

However, Li Miao's first notice was not the source of the sound, but the figure gradually emerging from the darkness, holding a huge golden cup.

"More road construction materials have arrived..."

A deep voice sounded, and the enormous golden cup was slowly raised, the pendants on its rim clinking and tinkling. [The Nameless Road Repairman]

[Rank: Torch Flame]

【Level: 66】

(The power of darkness obscured some information.)

[Note: A road repairman waits patiently at the end of the strange cobblestone path.]

"This……"

Upon seeing this, Li Miao was startled.

He wasn't surprised by the monster's strength.

Instead of being classified as an "unknown fire" like other NPCs, they were surprised to find that the other party was directly transformed into a monster in the dungeon.

However, the nameless road repairman on the other side clearly had no intention of wasting any more words with him.

In the darkness, Li Miao, dressed in a monk's robe, held a large golden cup in his hand, resembling a high monk holding a staff. His deep-set eyes were incredibly sinister as he stared intently at Li Miao.

"Yet another greedy person..."

"Full of vitality, with tough muscles, a rare material for road construction..."

The nameless road repairman gave a low laugh.

Upon hearing this, Li Miao raised an eyebrow.

He felt he could gather more intelligence and information from the other party's instinctive words.

However, the nameless road repairman did not grant his wish and suddenly smashed down the golden cup in his hand.

The next moment, attacks enveloped in the power of darkness came toward him.

Li Miao's heart tightened, and he subconsciously glanced at the person who had just come ashore, preparing to step forward and signal to the other person to calm down.

However, when he looked down, he saw only a torrent of water engulfed by the darkness.

"What are you babbling about?"

"Eat me, Mythos—Torrent!"

The Holy Fire Aspect manifested on the shore, its immense power emanating from a single point.

boom--

The powerful torrent of magic enveloped the nameless road cultivator, swallowing him up in an instant.

The nameless road repairman's actions were interrupted, his health rapidly decreased, and the cobblestone road stopped splitting at that moment.

"Ugh!!!"

"Do not!!!"

"My road isn't finished yet..."

You killed the nameless road repairman.

"call!"

"Just enough blue, awesome!"

I breathed a sigh of relief after getting ashore, feeling refreshed.

He started gathering his power the moment he appeared.

The other party said a couple more useless things, so it's understandable that he defeated them in one fell swoop.

After putting down his staff, he habitually took out a healing wax block and threw it into his mouth.

Then he saw Li Miao gesturing wildly in front of him, saying something he couldn't quite make out.

When he got ashore, he felt that his son must be praising him.

That's amazing! They took down the boss in one go!

……

"You idiot!"

Why kill him instantly? Keep him to hear his lines!

"I'm truly speechless..."

Li Miao was utterly speechless.

The nameless road repairman's skills are just so-so; I believe either he or Shang'an could easily handle it.

For a boss like that, you have to squeeze every last drop of potential value out of him.

Since the boss has lines, let him say a few more words. Maybe he'll just reveal the situation here?
