Chapter 285 The Castle of Terror

After washing off the blood on his body, Rhodes lay on the bed again.

It's only two or three o'clock in the morning, and I can sleep for a while, so I can try to see if I can enter the conscious world where the buffalo used to stay.

Those robbers were handed over to Baron. Originally, Baron planned to start training them today, but he was called to eat hot pot by Rhodes. Unexpectedly, such a thing happened.

But even if Baron was there, they would still have the idea of ​​killing and fleeing. Fortunately, not many people died this time.

After closing his eyes, Rhodes soon entered the dreamland again.

When he opened his eyes this time, this familiar room appeared in front of him again.

He stood up, opened the window and fell.

A feeling of weightlessness came, and the surrounding scenery flashed rapidly. Rhodes felt like traveling through a time tunnel.

Sure enough, as I thought, the window is the entrance to another world of consciousness.

After free falling in the sky for a while, Rhodes finally landed on the ground.

Fortunately, it doesn't hurt.

Rhodes stood up and began to observe the surrounding environment.

The sky is blood red, and purple lightning flashes from time to time, unlike the blue sky and white clouds in the world of the black cat.

Right in front of him was a castle, which he had never seen before, definitely not in his territory.

The shape of the castle is very peculiar, like a dragon head with long horns.

Not a faucet, but the head of a western dragon.

Rhodes showed a two-handed sword and walked slowly towards the castle. He felt that this time he had consumed more mental power than before.

In front of the gate of the castle stood two swordsmen in steel armor. Rhodes hadn't seen them in the distance before.

He felt as if the two of them were loaded after they got close.

The two swordsmen turned their heads to look at Rhodes. Their eyes were exposed under the steel helmets, without any emotion, just like a hunter looking at his prey.

"Hello? Can you talk?" Rhodes greeted the two of them.

He took another step forward, the two swordsmen rushed up suddenly, and Rhodes attacked first before they made a move.

In the conscious world, without the protection of the golden bell cover and the iron cloth shirt, he would not dare to let others attack randomly like in the real world.

One of the swordsmen blocked his slash, and just as the other swordsman was about to attack, Rhode turned around and cut off the swordsman's head.

The swordsman's head rolled to the ground, and then the head on the ground and the swordsman's mutilated body turned into white light spots, half of which dissipated in the air, and half poured into Rhode's body.

Rhodes felt that his strength seemed to have increased a bit, and at this moment, the remaining swordsman stabbed Rhodes with his sword.

Rhodes unhurriedly pushed the stabbing sword away, while controlling his pace to get closer to the swordsman, and then cut off the swordsman's head with a slash.

After the swordsman died, it turned into white light spots, half of which poured into Rhode's body again.

Rhodes felt as comfortable as if he had sweated all over in summer and then took a sip of Bingkuoluo.

Then he walked towards the gate of the castle, put his hand on it, and pushed the gate of the castle open with light force.

The castle was pitch black, and Rhode walked in. The furniture in the hall was covered with dust, as if no one had cleaned it for a long time.

Rhodes showed a bright flashlight, held the flashlight in his left hand, and explored the castle hall with a sword in his right hand.

He felt that there would probably be swordsmen like the gate in the castle.

In fact, the strength of those swordsmen is not bad, but after Rhodes practiced the Dugu Nine Swords, he could clearly judge their next attack intentions, and then he could use the most common moves to kill them.

Rhodes searched the hall, but did not find any creature or spirit body.

Bison had told him earlier that there would be many strange spiritual bodies in their conscious world, and these spiritual bodies were manifested by some human spiritual thoughts.

Some of them will take the initiative to attack like those two swordsmen, while others will stay in a certain place and sit on something repeatedly.

But the bison didn't say that killing them would increase their mental power.

Is this also one of my talents?

Rhodes felt that this might be a talent shared by human beings. These energies could not be absorbed by false gods cultivated by beasts like bison, but could only be absorbed by humans. After all, the energy sources of these spiritual bodies were countless ordinary humans.

Then he walked along the huge spiral staircase to the second floor. This was the first time he had seen such a staircase in the castle hall. The stairs of other castles were hidden in a small corner.

Halfway through, a snarling dog rushed towards Rhodes. Rhodes quickly stabbed with a sword, and the blade accurately pierced the abdomen of an ugly hound.

The ugly hound flying in mid-air whimpered and there was no further movement.

Like the previous swordsman, the hound also turned into a white spot of light.

Rhodes felt a little stronger after absorbing the white light spot.

His physical fitness in the conscious world was the same as that of ordinary people, which meant that his mental strength was barely enough for him to enter the conscious world, which was the minimum standard for entering the conscious world.

After the white light on his body completely dissipated, Rhode walked up the stairs with a vigilant face again.

A dark, uninhabited castle like this is a place that almost everyone will be afraid of.

Although Rhodes is not afraid of dying in the conscious world, he still feels a little panicked.

After he reached the second floor, he took a flashlight to take a look around.

The warm yellow light flashed across a smiling face, scaring Rhodes into a fright.

He pointed the flashlight at the place where he saw the face before, and found that the face seemed to be a little closer to him. It was the face of a greasy middle-aged man, and the wretched smile looked particularly weird in this environment.

The position of the human face was behind a table in front of Rhodes. Rhodes thought it should be an decoration in the castle.

But what pervert would use such an ornament?
Rhodes held up the face of the man, and walked over with the sword tightly.

"what!"

Face suddenly let out a scream.

Rhodes was frightened by the sudden scream, and the light path of the flashlight was also deflected. When he pointed the flashlight in the original direction again.

The face was already in front of him.

Rhodes yelled and slashed at the face with his sword. When the sword was about to touch the face, the face suddenly disappeared.

"Hey, I'm on top of you." A strange voice came from above Rhode's head.

He looked up and saw a twisted monster above his head.

The monster had four human hands that secreted some kind of slime that made it crawl on the human ceiling.

Its head is in the opposite direction to that of a normal human being. It hangs upside down from the ceiling, and the hanging head is upright.

Rhodes threw the sword in his hand vigorously, and the long sword nailed the monster to the ceiling.

Countless green slime dripped from the ceiling.

It really was an absurd world, and Rhodes felt that his fear seemed to be magnified in this castle.

But then again, why hasn't that guy on the ceiling turned into white light?
