Lumian originally thought that Catacombs Administrator, who had many light brown patches on his face, had been assimilated by Catacombs and became part of this special place, www•hetush u. comm·commAnd as time goes by, it will get closer and closer to Corpse, completely losing the breath of life, and permanently Slumber in the upright rot Coffin.

Who knows, he can still leave the huge Tomb Chamber leading to "Samaritan Woman Spring" with a Burning and White Candles in his hand.

"We take turns guarding the entrance to 'Samaritan Woman Spring', and the longer we stay there, the deeper we are eroded by the specialness of Catacombs, and the less like a living person we are. In the end, we no longer need to light up." White Candles came to protect himself from being swallowed up by Catacombs? Once the rotation leaves, can he slowly recover?"Lumian looked at the old Catacombs Administrator up the steps step by step with suspicion.

As the distance got closer and the candlelight shone, several college students present gradually saw clearly the appearance of the visitor.

They all know Catacombs Administrator's standard clothing, but this is the first time they meet Catacombs Administrator who is so old that it makes people feel rotten.

The faces covered with light brown age spots, the pure black to cold Eyes, and the weak to almost non-existent breath made them involuntarily feel fear and instinctively moved towards each other, hoping to draw warmth and Courage from their companions.

Da, da, da, the sound of slight footsteps echoed, and the old Catacombs Administrator stopped at "Old Ossuary Entrance".

He suddenly turned his body sideways and cast his cold eyes on Lumian.

"I have something to ask you." Catacombs Administrator said in a hoarse voice in a straightforward manner.

Looking for me? Do we know each other? Moreover, I came here to stay here today without informing anyone. It was completely driven by impulse and a temporary decision. Why would you come to me for something? Lumian was stunned for a while.

The same is true for those college students.

They didn't expect that this classmate with an interesting style and good at scaring would meet such a terrifying Catacombs Administrator.

Has he really explored Catacombs so many times that he has become friends with the administrators?

In confusion, Lumian stood up and followed the old Catacombs Administrator to the side of "Old Ossuary Entrance".

He wanted to hear what happened to this person and why he came to look for him.

In the thick darkness, Catacombs Administrator, holding a short piece of White Candles, his face illuminated by the dim fire, became more and more terrifying, said in an emotionless tone, "There are corpses in the southwest corner of the fourth floor Mutation, go and deal with them."

"Me?" Lumian pointed at himself with his right hand that was not holding White Candles.

Why are you looking for other Catacombs Administrator or Official Beyonder to do this kind of thing to me?

And it's still in a commanding tone!

Have you seen that I am an adventurer who takes money to do things, but I don't say what the reward is...

"Yes." The old Catacombs Administrator nodded slightly, "My spirit and flesh are close to decay, and I can no longer engage in daily battles."

Lumian looked at the administrator suspiciously and asked tentatively, "Do you know me?"

On the face of the old Catacombs Administrator, deep wrinkles unfolded layer by layer, forming a strange smile:

"You are our kind."

Similar...Lumian was confused and had some vague guesses.

"Go and deal with it now, the longer it takes, the more trouble it will be." The old Catacombs Administrator turned around and returned to "Old Ossuary Entrance".

I came to guard Harrison on Easter Island, not to work for you... Lumian muttered silently, with curious and confirmed thoughts, following the tomb administrator who looked more like a corpse than a living person, step by step down the stone stairs.

In the process, he smiled at the college students and waved his hands, which scared them into silence and no one dared to respond.

When the backs of Lumian and the old administrator disappeared from Depths's stone steps, with only a little firelight still remaining, several college students relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief.

That guy is really familiar with Catacombs Administrator!

He definitely knows a lot about this place!

Are the rumors he just told true?

Recalling the abnormal conditions in the dormitory described by Lumian and the consequences of extinguishing Candle, several college students shuddered at the same time and took back the White Candles in their hands towards their bodies.

Going down layer by layer, after passing François Tomb and Crimson Order Hall, Lumian followed the old administrator and quickly arrived at the southwest corner of Fourth Level of the Catacombs.

With the help of White Candles who had one third left, Lumian saw a skeleton three or four meters high.

It is composed of multiple white bones belonging to different Corpse. The whole body is human-shaped, with seven or eight heads. All Skull's Eye Sockets are dark inside, and there is no Burning or Flames of any color.

At this time, this huge skeleton was opening different Tomb Chamber doors, taking out sharp bones, and adding them to the giant skeleton sword in his hand.

The candlelight spread Past and could only illuminate the area a little, and the darkness flowed there like water, bringing indescribable coldness and terror.

Lumian Even though he was not really close, he could not help but feel fear and resistance, as if he was walking towards death step by step.

His blue Eyes quickly turned to iron black, reflecting the color of Pale White on the Mutation skeleton.

That One is on the chest Depths, and it seems that you have to split the layers of White Bone outside to reach it.

"Did you see it? Get rid of it." The old Catacombs Administrator said again in a tone of ordering his companions and subordinates.

"What ability does it have?" Lumian doesn't mind providing some help. After all, he just got a powerful item and wants to use it, but he can't just go into battle so recklessly. He must first understand Monster's situation and plan a battle plan.

Only the last bit of White Candles is left in the hands of the old administrator, and the dim candlelight is tenaciously supporting it.

He shook his head and said, "I don't know, but it is suppressed by the tomb and cannot show much specialness.

"It won't be possible until it gets dark outside. We have to clean up now."

Suppressed by Catacombs... Lumian asked thoughtfully, "There have been several similar Mutations recently. Is the frequency high?"

"Normal, once or twice a month." The old Catacombs Administrator replied in a hoarse voice.

Even if it is sealed as a whole, some abnormalities will still occur? This is similar to other areas of Underground Trier... Lumian was about to ask some more questions when the huge alien skeleton covered with mud and mold seemed to have discovered them, turned around suddenly, and raised the giant sword made of countless sharp bones.

The surface of the giant sword then Burning rose from Paleness to Flames.

Kick, kick, kick, the skeleton with seven or eight heads moved stiffly but quickly towards Lumian and Catacombs Administrator.

The darkness flowing around him surged in, bringing a cold that could freeze one's bones and a terror that pointed directly at the soul.

Lumian did not hesitate, put his hand into "Traveler’s Bag" and held "Sword of Courage".

A wave of heat quickly filled his body.

"What's there to be afraid of?

"Fight, fight, fight!"

Lumian pulled out the large Straight Sword of Iron-Black, and rushed towards the huge skeleton and the terrifying bone sword in its hand.

Then, he waved "Sword of Courage" upward.

Blazing White The green Flames soared and ignited on the sword.

Bang!

Iron-Black's Straight Sword collided with the giant sword made of countless pointed bones in mid-air.

Lumian's knees bent and his feet sank into the soil.

The power of the bones was so great that Blazing White's green Flames and Paleness's Flames were entangled and annihilated each other.

Lumian is not afraid of this.

He tensed his thighs with excitement, straightened his knees, and without retreating, he slashed Iron-Black Straight Sword towards the behemoth.

The pointed-bone giant sword responded with an attitude like a falling stone.

Boom!

This collision triggered a violent explosion. The ferocious Impact wave rolled up Blazing White and slapped the blue Flames on the surface of the huge skeleton, making it take two steps back.

Lumian caught up and hit "Sword of Courage" again.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The swords were struck again and again, and in the huge explosions, a large number of bones on the skeleton fell off and were scorched black. Even the bone sword lost a lot of weight.

Finally, Lumian broke through its block and struck its chest with a sword.

Boom!

Blazing White The green ball of fire expanded there and penetrated the entire body.

The huge skeleton suddenly froze.

Crash, it collapsed completely, just like stacked building blocks Castle being pushed over.

Lumian took back Iron-Black Straight Sword, half-turned his body, and smiled at the old Catacombs Administrator: "It's taken care of."

While talking, he put "Sword of Courage" back into "Traveler’s Bag".

Just after completing this action, Lumian suddenly woke up:

Is this solved?

Although I expected to rush forward and fight head-on before holding the sword, I never thought of just doing a head-on attack...

It's really "Sword of Courage"...

Hearing Lumian's words, the old Catacombs Administrator slowly came closer with the White Candles that was about to go out.

Lumian's thoughts were spinning, and relying on the help he had just provided, he asked casually, "Has anyone else been to 'Samaritan Woman Spring' in the past few months?"

That should be the place with the strongest death power in Catacombs. Harrison might be attracted to Past.

The old Catacombs Administrator looked at Lumian in slow motion and said in a hoarse voice, "Kill Candle."

What? Killed Candle? Do you want me to commit suicide? Lumian's first reaction was that Catacombs Administrator in front of him wanted to harm himself.

If you don't carry the lit White Candles here, it will be erased strangely and forgotten by everyone!

At this time, the Candle Burning in Catacombs Administrator's hand reached the end, swayed for a while and then went out completely.

Darkness surged into the old man, seeming to drown him in deathly silence.

He has not disappeared.

At this moment, Lumian recalled a lot, including the fact that Catacombs Administrator regarded himself as a similar person and his own speculation about this.

Before he could make up his final, crazy determination, the darkness around Catacombs Administrator spread fiercely, shrouding him inside.

His white Candle suddenly went out.
