Chapter 255: Light is my enemy
Among the rolling mountains, the towering peaks reach the sky, and against the backdrop of clouds and mist, they appear extremely majestic and spectacular.

The top of the mountain is covered with snow, and even the temperature at the foot of the mountain is below 5 degrees all year round.

As Hammerl and his party traveled through the mountains, Cade hardly ever stopped to complain.

"The place you are going to is so dangerous, why do you want to bring a burden with you?"

Cade was riding on his horse, his face full of complaints, but Nemesis, the one he was complaining about, seemed not to have heard him, admiring the beautiful scenery of ice and snow around him.

The north wind howled through the mountains, and the horses' hooves stepped on the white snow, leaving footprints one after another. Nemesis looked at the mountain peak, sniffed his nose, and a playful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Ah, this smell. It seems that there are quite a lot of guys there." Nemesis murmured in a low voice, with a hint of disgust in his eyes.

Cade heard the voice and asked in confusion, "What did you say?"

Nemesis smiled and shook his head, saying, "I am praising the beauty of nature. Even in this icy and snowy land, there are still many low-level creatures that are surviving tenaciously."

Cade looked at the barren environment around him and gave him a look of disdain.

What a madman! The Cloudy Mountains, as the northern border of Amn, is a well-known forbidden zone for life.

The extremely low temperature on the mountain makes it a place where almost no living creature can survive. People living near the foot of the mountain say that they have only seen the white dragon a few times.

Of course, Cade didn't believe it. After all, they didn't see any white dragon when they came here last time.

Moreover, even if there really was a white dragon, he didn't believe that this noble who looked like he knew nothing could know anything.

Cade thought so because he was actually putting himself in other people's shoes. He was once a young master from an aristocratic family, and he also had the opportunity to come into contact with the arcane.

Unfortunately, his family suffered a change and his title was taken away. Cade became a lonely man and could only survive in an adventure team.

This was also the reason why he thought that this stranger who suddenly appeared and wanted to walk with them was a burden.

As a powerful 8th level mage who mastered the fourth ring spells, Cade did not sense any magic from him, and the other party's pretty face did not look like a melee professional.

An unquestionably ordinary person.

The four of them quickly arrived at their destination and stopped in front of a wall covered with thick snow.

"This is it," Hammerl said in a complicated tone.

Their team had gone through years of adventures, killing the minotaurs in the Underdark, expelling the necromancer hiding in the village, and even surviving the clutches of the devil.

But in this nameless cemetery before them, their most powerful member was killed.

Moreno, and his sister.

Hammerel walked forward, took out a mace, and struck the wall hard. The huge force caused the snow on the wall to fall in piles, revealing its true appearance.

Two huge rocks were half-covered, revealing a gap that was only wide enough for one person to pass through, and the gap was surrounded by withered vines that had frozen into ice.

Cade nervously took out a short-handled copper wand, while Ebis tightly grasped the dagger in her hand and looked around vigilantly. Hammerel took a deep breath and stepped into the cemetery first.

As soon as they entered the cemetery, a rotten smell hit them in the face, and strange lights flickered on the walls, as if the souls of the dead were whispering. They walked carefully, and the stone pavement under their feet made a "creaking" sound, as if protesting their intrusion.

Nemesis walked at the back, looking around, with a gleam in his eyes.

"The shadow energy here is so strong!"

Erbis in the team seemed to be a wanderer, and under the influence of this shadow energy, her spirit became radiant. The end of the passage was pitch black, and Hammeril lit the candle in his hand and arrived at a place blocked by a black energy gate.

The energy gate was completely black, and its surface fluctuated like water from time to time. Like a black hole, it obscured everything behind the gate from the unknown horizon.

Hammerl said in a deep voice: "Extinguish all the light sources on your body before you can enter the [Shadow Seal]."

Obviously, they were already familiar with the place after having been here once before. Nemesis followed them and turned off all the light sources on their bodies, and everything around them instantly fell into complete darkness.

Fortunately, as a scroll dragon, Nemesis naturally possesses [Dark Vision], and even in such complete darkness, he can barely see the outline of objects.

Hammerl was the first to walk towards the [Shadow Seal]. The moment his body touched the black energy gate, he disappeared without a trace as if being swallowed by the water.

The four of them entered one by one, but when it was Nemesis' turn, he stopped.

He looked at the top of the [Shadow Seal], where there was a very small text engraved on the wall.

"Light is my enemy. The sun's eye is hateful and keeps no secrets. This will not last long. I will destroy it."

Nemesis thought for a moment. This sentence sounded like the doctrine of some mysterious organization. However, he searched through all his memories and could not find any relevant information.

After standing there for a long time, Nemesis gave up the idea of ​​decrypting the information and stepped into the energy gate.

Inside the door, several people who had been waiting for a long time looked at him with dissatisfaction.

After everyone was gathered, Hammerlion led the team again, carefully leading everyone through one room after another.

Every room here has extremely deadly traps. Some rooms will spray out poison that will cause people to fester, some rooms will release music that will make people fall into pain, depression, and seek suicide, and some rooms will contain monsters that crave flesh and blood.

"There are three gargoyle statues in this room. The last time we came here, we killed the gargoyles inside, but when we returned, we found that the gargoyles were still intact in the room."

"So when we go in, we will just run away from the room. Those gargoyles won't chase us." Hammerlion instructed Nemesis.

Nemesis smiled and nodded. Gargoyle? The dwarf might be disappointed.

That powerful shadow energy is not something a gargoyle can possess.

Just as Hammer was about to open the door, Ebis suddenly interrupted him and said anxiously, "Something is wrong."

Hammerler became alert and asked quickly, "What's wrong?"

Erbis covered her chest, looking as if she couldn't breathe: "This room is emitting a strong shadow energy. I can feel it. That energy is as huge as the night that covers the stars."

Hammerlir frowned, his heart pounding.

but
Thinking of Moreno who was desperately waiting to die in the shadow prison, Hammerir gritted his teeth and opened the door.

"Run now!"

After opening the door, Hammerler ran away without even taking a look at the situation inside the room.

But the words he shouted caused a huge echo, which made Hammerler stunned. He remembered that the room was very small.

Hammerl looked up and was shocked by the scene before him.

I saw the room I was in was huge and boundless. In the darkness in the distance, a huge outline was hidden under the dark curtain, rising and falling slightly.
