Chapter 4630: Desperate Escape (Part 9)

"Blot?! Blot... where is the blot?!" Loki groped the wall bricks anxiously. After seeing that black wall brick, he hammered it forcefully, but found there was no movement at all.

He took a few deep breaths, forcing himself to calm down. Not only could he not feel the pain in his collarbone at all, but his brain was also turning fast. He leaned closer, and then took down the torch beside him in one go. The moment the flame swept across the wall brick, the revolving door made a heavy sound.

Whoosh—Pop!

"Oh... ptooey... ptooey ptooey ptooey..."

Thor, soaked through, lay on the ground spitting out water. Loki was about to go crazy, he waved the torch and roared: "You damn bastard! How dare you!!!"

Thor, lying on the ground, just lay flat like this, lifted his face and smiled at Loki. Loki threw away the torch, dragged him from the ground, strangled his neck tightly and said: "If you dare to throw me in alone again, I will kill you!!! Bastard!!!!"

"Cough cough... cough cough cough..." Thor easily got rid of him, gasped for air through his wet long hair, looked at him and said with a smile: "I said it, your memory isn't very good. You've said this about a few thousand times, and I'm still alive and well."

Loki was so angry he looked around, then picked up the other torch and hit Thor with it. Thor hurriedly stretched out both hands to stop him: "Don't don't don't, you're an ordinary person now, don't burn yourself!"

Loki was clearly angered to the point of confusion, he forgot how to speak English, and was cursing a bunch of Old Norse in his mouth.

"Alright alright." Thor comforted him hurriedly, gave Loki a bear hug, ignored his struggle, and touched his long black hair again, then said: "Don't be like this, Loki. I just knew you could definitely solve it, that's why I threw you in."

"You do this every time!! Every time!!!" Loki's roar had broken his voice, "You fell into the ice lake last time, and the time before last you were rolled away by that man-eating flower, and the time before that..."

Thor grabbed his head and kissed his forehead forcefully and said: "But I have never broken my promise, my dear brother. Every time I came back, didn't I?"

Loki was so angry he was shaking all over, simply unable to speak. He pushed Thor away, forgetting he had an injury on his collarbone, slammed fiercely against the wall on the side, and then let out a cry of pain.

Thor rushed forward to support him: "Sometimes I really can't understand you, Loki. You clearly also took tactics classes, but you never understand what division of labor and cooperation is. The vanguard of course has to charge in front, and the staff and mages are the objects everyone needs to protect. This is not because you are weak, but the best tactic for thousands of years, because it is classic, it is good."

"I..." Loki gasped fiercely, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, and then said weakly, "I am not... not like you, because I can't be brave, I'm so angry... jumping up and down... you bastard..."

"I understand, you aren't angry because you stayed behind, but because I rushed to the front. But you even tricked me into traps several times."

"I just did it for... to let you know that the recklessness of an idiot like you will have... hiss..."

"Alright alright, stop talking." Thor helped him sit down.

"Help me over there." Loki said unhappily, "I have to see what's on the wall... what's on the wall..."

Thor had to help him again, came to the door, let him face the wall with the torch, and then picked up the torch on the ground and inserted it. This torch was also very burn-resistant, whether it was waved several times or dropped on the ground with water, it didn't go out.

"Take away... that side..." Loki directed him.

So Thor walked over and took down the torch on one side, followed by the other. Loki spelled out a word using the previous rule: "'Font'? What is font?"

"'Font'?" Shiler held the torch, stared at the word on the wall and said, "In religious terminology, this usually refers specifically to a stone holy water basin, where holy water is placed for baptism. Of course, in ancient English poetry or hymns, it also has the meaning of 'fountain'..."

"I understand, isn't fountain 'where water comes from'? We have to go back." Bruce held the torch and turned to look at the room door, revealing a look of realization. He raised the torch and shook it on the brick with the stain, and the tightly closed door soon opened.

Shiler also took the torch, they passed through the room door again, walked back from the corridor to the original two rooms, came to the room where the water prison was, and saw the collapsed ceiling. There was a hole in the center of the ceiling, but a part around it hadn't collapsed.

Bruce turned to look at the wall that had been rushed down. He handed the torch to Shiler, then went to move wall bricks to step on. After taking back the torch, he threw the torch up, stepped on the wall bricks, grabbed the edge of the ceiling with both hands, jumped up fiercely, and then did a pull-up, turning sideways to the upper floor.

He let out a long breath, and then said: "It's been too long since I was Batman, I almost couldn't get up. Wait a moment, Professor, I'll see if there's a rope or something."

He held the torch and turned around in the space above, and soon moved a ladder over. After putting it down, Shiler climbed up from the ladder and also came to the second floor.

This place could be called pitch black, if there was no torch, it was truly impossible to see one's fingers. Beside that big hole, there was a room that could be considered spacious, and the two searched there.

"I said you underestimated me." Lucifer shook the key triumphantly, "If I hadn't discovered there was a problem with the key, you might have fallen into a trap."

"Alright alright, you're amazing, happy now?" Anatoli reached out to take the key, but Lucifer pulled his hand back with a swoosh.

"No, this is a puzzle I solved myself, I want to open the door myself." After speaking, Lucifer walked to the door with the key, he carefully pinched the wooden part of the key, and inserted the key into the keyhole.

With a gentle turn, the door revolved. Lucifer was stunned by this magical way of opening the door, but soon, he was attracted by the unknown world behind the door, and turned sideways to walk in.

"Wait..."

Swoosh swoosh!

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!!"

Lucifer screamed and knelt on the ground, blood flowing from his right wing. Anatoli stepped forward to hug him, turned to look at his right wing, and there was a cold steel needle piercing it.

Lucifer was flapping uncontrollably in pain. If it were only human limbs, it would be fine, but the problem was he still had a pair of huge wings. Flapping like this, Anatoli was slapped to the ground directly.

"Lucifer!" But he still grabbed Lucifer's wings tightly, "Don't move around! We have to take that thing off!"

"Uh... ah..."

Lucifer couldn't hear at all, the pair of big wings were still flapping non-stop, and several feathers had fallen off. The whole person was as savage as a wild beast caught in a trap, futilely wanting to break free from the thing causing them pain.

Anatoli didn't feel surprised, just a bit helpless, and muttered in Russian: "Compared to divinity, I always recognize your bestiality more clearly, angel."

After speaking, he turned over and pressed on Lucifer, making Lucifer unable to move while lying on the ground. Anatoli pressed Lucifer's back neck with one arm, and pressed the wing root with the other arm across.

But Lucifer didn't give up struggling at all, always trying to get him off his body. Anatoli had to retract the hand pressing his back neck, then wrapped it around the front of his neck and pulled it fiercely.

"Uh!!!!"

Lucifer let out a dying low roar, his wings first contracted suddenly, flapping and trembling violently, and then unfolded powerlessly, like a dying swan.

But Anatoli still didn't let go. Until Lucifer's breathing began to become weak, he slowly loosened his arm, and while standing up, asked: "Feeling better?"

Lucifer just gasped for air and couldn't answer. And at this time, Anatoli came to his side and started to remove the steel needle from his wing.

Anatoli groped for the steel needle among the feathers, the whole wing trembled again, but he could feel Lucifer trying hard to control himself not to move. And the moment Anatoli pulled the steel needle out, Lucifer let out another scream, and the whole wing flapped fiercely. He turned sideways and wrapped himself tightly with his wings.

Anatoli took the steel needle and looked at it, then went to check the door panel, and immediately understood the purpose of this mechanism. It's a pity, this was designed for humanoids, the level designer didn't seem to consider the situation where wings would reach out first.

It can only be said that it's fortunate Lucifer had wings. If he hadn't brought wings into the game and walked over directly with his body, he might have been pierced through the lung lobe by now, and death would have become very painful.

Anatoli lowered his eyes and stroked the steel needle with his thumb, then silently put the steel needle into his pocket.

He walked over, knelt before Lucifer, and knocked on his shell. Lucifer turned over and lay on his back on the ground, his eyes looking at the ceiling with some distraction. Anatoli knelt in front of his head and reached out to cup his head.

"Wake up, Lucifer. Now is not the time to die, wake up quickly..." He kept chanting like this tirelessly, until Lucifer came back to his senses.

"People see Satan when they die, then who does Satan see when he dies?" Lucifer said weakly, "... of course it's you, you bastard!"

"I wanted to call you to stop." Anatoli said, "It was your movement that was too fast, I didn't have time to stop you at all. Promise me, next time even if there is a door to pass, don't reach out your wings first, okay?"

Lucifer also seemed to realize that his reaction was a bit over-the-top, he said while slowly climbing up from the ground: "My wings have never been injured, never!"

"Doesn't the time I pulled your feathers count?"

Lucifer only gave him a roll of his eyes.

But standing in front of the door again, Lucifer was clearly still having lingering fears. Anatoli had already passed sideways, but Lucifer was still hesitating and didn't dare to enter, turning from left to right, and then from right to left, seemingly wanting to find an angle where his wings wouldn't have to enter.

"Come over quickly," Anatoli said, "we have already wasted a lot of time. I'm afraid..."

Boom!!!!
