Everything before them seemed greatly terrifying in the howling wind.
The Eimphia could vaguely be seen in the darkness. It was like a vicious beast that would feast on humans.
There was a flash of light behind Sylvia as Henry appeared, his white clothes still looked clean and spotless.
Henry immediately noticed that there were all sorts of lines densely packed around the hazy Eimphia in the distance. However, those lines were not targeted around the entire space but only at the tower. To be precise, it was targeted around something within the tower. Those lines represented a seal and all extended into the tower. This so-called Virtual World was a place one could come and go at will.
The cold wind howled like the cries of a ghost.
Mrs. Treva took a step forward and walked towards the hazy area. The ice beneath her was all black.
"The Fallen Angels are extremely powerful."
Sayre said as he walked carefully on the ice, "Even if it's already dead, even if it's just a corpse, it could still bring about great disaster and claim our lives."
Upon hearing that, Wade could not help but retract his neck.
As the crowd advanced forward, Eimphia also gradually appeared clearer. The entire tower glowed with a dark green light, appearing extremely lifeless. The tower was thirteen stories tall, it was the most taboo number for them, it was precisely because they did not want anyone to approach the tower.
An evil Fallen Angel had come to the mortal world from the Underworld. Even if it died in the mortal world, its body would not decay. All that could be done was only to use the pagoda to suppress the power from the corpse.
It was bitterly cold there. This tower was like an entrance to the Underworld, making it impossible for anyone to feel any hope of living on.
Only when they walked to the front of the tower did they see that it was covered in frost. The cold wind that had been blowing at them suddenly came to a stop, but its howls did not.
"Would boss really be in the tower?"
Wade looked at the tower in front of him and murmured to himself.
"This Virtual World isn't very big. If you don't see the person you are looking for, then he must be in the tower."
Mrs. Treva said, "The Fallen Angels have some sort of magical power. Even their corpses could give people a strong desire to explore onwards, leading them to fall into the Garden of Eden created by the Fallen Angels. Let's go in."
The entrance of the tower was dark. Looking inside, there only seemed to be endless darkness.
All of them stepped into the entrance, and the ghost- like howls of the wind suddenly disappeared. The sudden silence felt creepy. It felt as if they had entered a place that was completely isolated from the world.
No one noticed the black shadow that appeared gradually in the sky above the tower, which then covered the tower completely. The shadow had the form of a human being, behind it were two huge wings that could fill up the entire space when outstretched. The shadow only appeared for a moment and then disappeared.
Mrs. Treva, who walked at the front of the crowd in the tower, had a mysterious smile on her face.
"The Eimphia has a total of thirteen floors. Each floor used to be heavily guarded, for fear of the Fallen Angel suddenly finding the chance to come back to life. Over the course of countless years, there had been many who wanted to find the Fallen Angel, but the guards would cause them to give up immediately. However, now, these guards have all ended up as corpses through the passing of time."
Mrs. Treva's voice sounded.
The space within the Eimphia was very large, it was pitch black, and had only a single staircase that allowed them to walk up to the top of it.
After going through level after level, they got up to the 12th floor and stopped there.
Mrs. Treva's face suddenly darkened. She turned around and looked at Sylvia and the others. She inhaled deeply and said, "Everyone, we haven't found the person you are looking for. He may not have been able to resist the temptation and went up to the thirteenth floor. I'm sorry, but the thirteenth floor is where the Fallen Angel is buried. We can't go in as we please. I can't help you with this."
Wade and the others were immediately anxious.
