Geno was counting how many ghost spears were inserted in the courtyard, which can be seen as how many undead spears had just killed here in the Spear of Revenge.

Inferring the number of undead will help them speculate on the military deployment and defense strength of the castle.

Although this is not helpful in finding the Spear of Revenge, thinking about it is just to use the waiting time.

A ghost spear that Geno stared at suddenly dissipated, and they gathered into a wisp of ethereal black mist and slowly drifted in a certain direction.

"Follow that black mist, it will take us to find the Spear of Revenge," said Geno.

Several people followed one after another.

The reason is very simple. Each ghost spear is part of the spear of revenge. After being thrown out, they will disintegrate after a period of time and return to the body of the spear of revenge.

This is the same rule as the endless cycle that takes place on Shadow Island.

After pursuing this wisp of black mist, Geno and his men came to a tunnel.

The tunnel was filled with black mist. As soon as I approached here, Elise told Geno about her anxiety. Some vicious things lurked in the darkness.

And Jorick felt the same way.

Since he arrived here, Yorik felt the sound in the black fog begin to become active.

It entertained him more "entertainly" than usual, giving him the illusion of being at home.

Yorik felt that this place might be related to the voice that has been with him for hundreds of years, and perhaps it could solve the mystery of the sound here.

As they spoke, the black mist belonging to the Spear of Revenge had merged into the thick black mist, like a stream flowing into the sea, and could no longer divide you and me.

As the black mist penetrated into the darkness, Geno's clues also broke.

But there was no suspense in the direction that followed. Geno felt that the black fog in the tunnel was flowing, constantly gushing out of the tunnel from a certain direction.

It is definitely the place where black fog originated.

So as long as they walk straight along the tunnel, they will inevitably reach the source of the black fog when they reach the deepest point.

At this moment, how could he not understand that the source of the black fog is the place of resurrection of the dead.

The powerful beings on Shadow Island will be waiting for him there.

...

The group of people walked slowly in the tunnel, like a school of fish going upstream.

They could feel as if they were walking in the torrent of black fog. The black fog in the tunnel was as rich as fluid, making every step of their stagnant. The black fog came and made the Queen grass smolder and emitted a faint fire, as if each step was consuming only a small amount of their vitality.

It is still too difficult for these grass to resist such a rich black fog.

Geno looked at the blades of grass burning out quickly like cigarettes in the wind, and suddenly there was a thought that only he could reach the end.

Before I knew it, I was already deeply trapped in the quagmire.

He realized that he had to do something to save it, otherwise Sarah and the others would be swallowed by the black fog before he could reach the basement.

The black mist would seep into the crystal, so he put his body on a cloak of soul fire, walked at the front of the team, hoping to bring shelter to those behind him.

But black fog is not a dead object, they are the carrier of black magic, and countless devoured souls live in it.

They are full of malice towards the living, and will bypass Geno's soul fire cloak and entangle with the weak, until they drag them into the boundary of the Styx, which will never be reborn in the dark.

"Sarah, you can turn back and wait, you can't walk here."

There was no way, Geno could only persuade them to withdraw and prepare to face unknown dangers by himself.

"But... there is still a big battle waiting for you. How could you beat them alone?"

Although Sarah wanted to turn it back, she couldn't let her take risks alone.

This reminded her of Lucian after the Soul-Earing Night. At that time, no matter how Geno persuaded him, he would not listen. He would not be able to pull back the Nine-Cows to go to Shadow Island.

Then what happened to him?

Is this more important? He died, but he was lucky and did not die thoroughly, and became a spirit who retained consciousness.

The situation in the basement was unknown. Thresh had prepared some traps to greet them. Hekarim had saved up many undeads of the Iron Group. Karthas was a tricky enemy that even Geno could not even detect.

Even if the Spear of Revenge can help Geno stop Hekarim, there will be Thresh's conspiracy and Karthas's undead army waiting for Geno.

As for Lechers and Lucian, they entered the undead's lair first, Sarah guessed that they might have been unable to protect themselves, so how could they help Geno?

"If you want to leave, leave together. Let's go out and think of it and try to pass here." Sarah didn't say anything to death so that Geno could accept her suggestions more easily.

Geno felt that this trip was extremely dangerous. Even Geno did not feel so unsure when facing Zelas.

"Then let's do it first." Geno agreed.

"No, you can't do this!" Yorik suddenly shouted, frightening someone else.

"What's wrong with you? Is that voice saying something to you again?" Jeno asked.

Yorik repeatedly engaged in a strong ideological struggle, and couldn't listen to Geno's inquiry, and was like a fool.

But another voice answered.

"Why waste time?" asked a group of thick voices, and the black mist behind Jorik sarcastically.

Geno and the others were shocked, because even they heard the sound in the black fog this time, which was no longer just the torture exclusive to Jorik.

"If you want to go in, throw away the amulet and join us here, and we will take you into the arms of the Father." The voice said again.

Although it calls itself "we", everyone can hear some difference between this voice and the Spear of Revenge, which is the voice of the Misty Girl.

"Are you bluffing us? Throwing away the amulet will kill people." Jinx grinned and she would not speak well about the things she wanted her life.

"It's too late now, you can't get away." The mist joked. "Someone has come to send you on the way, and we'll get a share of it."

"Why can't you get out? Jinx has passed so many prisons, so you have never been afraid of anyone! You have a habit of coming out, see if Jinx won't beat you to death!" Jinx said furiously as he heard the mockery coming from all directions.

"We may really not be able to leave..." A desperate voice rang out.

Elise stared at the entrance when they came, her face turned pale.

What she saw was Karthas in a broken robe, floating in the air with a staff.

Under him was an army of the dead, blocking the retreat without leaking.
