Heavy footsteps quickly came to the end of the passage. The howling wind that had been passing through this place changed for a moment with the appearance of a huge black shadow. The magic weapon that had previously sent out a series of bombings also followed suit.
With his arms raised, he arrived at the area where Duan Qing and others had just disappeared. The muzzles of the black guns, which were still emitting green smoke, were pointed at the dark front represented by the narrow cracks in the wall. The sound of roaring wind
It seemed that he had chosen to go around as the muzzles of the pair of guns moved, passing his strong and piercing momentum around the tall black shadow that looked like a robot. The thick smoke and dust that had originally rolled here were also accompanied by it at this moment.
The atmosphere gradually became silent, and the magical creature whose shape was almost the same as Kyle II slowly blew over the head of the quiet man: "Clear the threat, remove the threat——"
"Unable to access this area, start looking for a solution."
The electronically synthesized sound kept flowing around the square head, and finally turned into a lingering magic circuit that gathered on the surface of the muzzle formed by the deformation of the two arms in front of you: "Substitution: Use flames to burn the target area."
boom!
The two muzzles that were supposed to fire out the bombardment sprayed out streams of light like flamethrowers, and the hot light that was as bright as daylight instantly filled the narrow gap in the wall. With ordinary life forms,
The unbearable heat then rolled back together with the light that dispelled the darkness and the thick smoke rising from the cavity above the crack in the wall: "Five, four, three, two——"
"Start scanning." The flood of fire slowly extinguished after a period of countdown. The tall robot held the black muzzle and replied emotionlessly: "The vital signs have been eliminated, confirming that the threat has disappeared."
"Return to patrol protection plan protocol."
The roaring sound then slowly disappeared in the direction of the heavy steps, and along with the still swirling strong wind, it disappeared into the cracks in the hot wall that still maintained the residual warmth at the end of the passage.
Then a glimmer of light flashed, and with Duan Qing's loud breathing, it exploded around the crack in the wall: "Huha——"
"Fortunately, it is a flame composed of magic." With a layer of magic shield shrouded in blue-purple fluorescence, Duan Qing's voice sounded from the depths of this dark slit with a sense of fear: "If it is really
The flamethrower, the burning just now may have killed us."
"Even if the magic shield can block the damage of the fire, the lack of oxygen caused by the burning of the air is inevitable - this is what you want to say." Duan Qing's body blocked him behind, and he was surrounded by
Xueling Huanbing, who was standing next to him, then squeezed out his head with an indifferent expression: "But even so, the power of your magic shield is a bit too powerful, right? Are you trying something new?
Trick?”
"That's right, I can't help but want to praise your smart little brain." Duan Qing raised his arms due to lack of space, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and then he moved his arms with difficulty.
Body: "Considering that we have to swallow our 'aura' together, I chose this this time."
He waved his hand, and the ancient disc in his hand also reflected an obscure light under the movement of the gray-robed magician. A cube exuding strange magical energy was also in front of Xueling Huanbing's eyes.
Gradually taking shape, the center of the disk in Duan Qing's hand continued to float and rotate: "This is - Hyperton Cube?"
"That's right, the one we picked up in the Ruins of Wind." The squeezed space made Xueling Huanbing's breathing sound extremely close, and the softness so close at hand also made the gray-robed magician
The movement of raising his hand became a little more unnatural. He tilted his head back involuntarily, and directed his fiery breath and curious eyes to the surface of the disc in his hand: "I'm just trying to look at this thing.
Can you express the power contained in the cube? I didn't expect it to perform so well."
"It shows the characteristics of absorption. This layer of strangely colored magic shield is the product of this power." He twisted his eyebrows and his attention was forcibly diverted from the body fragrance emanating from the woman next to him.
The surface of the blue-purple shield in front of us: "Now not only the magic attacks from the outside, but also the aura and magic power emanating from within us have been absorbed."
"It's a good way to hide your figure." Then Xue Ling Huan Bing lowered his head: "But it must be more than that, right? You are always like this, you never reveal your true identity until the last critical moment.
His ability is revealed——"
"I'm talking about you two."
Before Duan Qing could say his next answer, Shi Ayun from behind the two people came out from an unknown dark corner: "Can we do those things like 'Merakwo' later?
?I am still at the bottom."
"Obviously he was the last one to run into this gap, so why did he get behind us?" Duan Qing's teasing voice also sounded in front of the middle-aged homeless man: "On the issue of escaping for one's life.
In terms of strength, the two of us are still a little ashamed of ourselves."
"It was obviously you two who deserted first. I was forced by the situation and had no choice but to do so!" With difficulty in answering these words, the figure belonging to Shi Ayun also struggled to the crack of the wall with his shouts.
Deeper: "Are you going to leave me there alone to fight against that big guy? Do you still have any sense of morality as a fellow human being?"
"Really? But I saw your momentum before, and I thought you were planning to go up and challenge it." Duan Qing, who no longer dared to make any moves and raised his hands, finally found the opportunity to move in front of him.
Awkward atmosphere: "Seeing how energetic and determined you were earlier, we were too embarrassed to stop you, so we had no choice but to slip into this gap ourselves... Well."
"It seems that this crack in the wall is not a deliberately constructed passage." He glanced in the direction where Shi Ayun struggled to leave, and his eyes also stayed for a moment at the end illuminated by the homeless man's breath.
: "There is no other way for us to go?"
"This is exactly the question I wanted to ask just now." Because of Shi Ayun's retreat, there was a little space for separation, and the voice belonging to Xue Ling Huan Bing also struggled behind Duan Qing: "Keep going, always
You can’t stay in this narrow crack in the wall forever, right?”
"It's impossible to walk back along the original path. The big guy is still waiting for us in that direction." After carefully checking every corner of this dim area, Shi Ayun's voice also sounded low again: "
Regardless of whether it is the same kind as Kyle II, it must have its own patrol route and territory it protects. If we encounter it again, there is no such thing as a cave-like place for us to hide.
Already."
"The key to the problem lies in its patrol range and patrol time." Xueling Huanbing also began to ponder: "If you can take advantage of the gaps in its patrol to sneak into other directions...or go in the opposite direction? Go to the connecting area.
Try your luck?"
"Without the support of Kyle II, my magic shield cannot last for long in the connected area." Duan Qing quietly put away the magic disc in his hand, and turned his head indifferently:
"Before the storm outside subsides, we can judge this road as a dead end. The only remaining options are to continue along the passage and go deeper in, and -"
"Up."
He pointed to the top of his head and guided the eyes of the other two people to the top of the crack in the wall. The dark curtain and the end of the invisible field of vision also appeared here with the gesture of the man in gray robe.
The top of the crack in the wall seemed to have no restrictions at all: "Up? Is there a road up here?"
"There should be, because I feel the flow of the wind." Nodding his head, Duan Qing also looked up at the top of the crack in the wall that was also unable to be explored with his eyes: "Maybe there is something similar to a vent,
We can crawl along the vents to other locations."
"A vent that has been neglected for thousands of years... Are you sure you can still pass through it?" Putting away his gaze, Xue Ling Huan Bing stared at Duan Qing's face expressionlessly: "Even if the quality is not good,
What's the problem? I wouldn't climb into a place full of dust and all kinds of underground 'little animals'."
"Don't rush to back out now, let's go up and take a look first." Duan Qing looked back at the other party's face with a smile on his face: "As one of the options that is likely to lead to an unknown place, it's impossible not to take a look.
Wouldn’t it be a pity to give up like this?”
"...Then how do you plan to go up? Climb up directly?" Looking at the look in the eyes of the man in front of him, Xue Ling Huan Bing sighed helplessly and then pointed to his left and right: "I know it can be done.
You can climb in such a narrow place by supporting the wall, but you must have enough space to operate. The gap in the wall in front of you seems to be only one person wide, and you can't even stretch your arms."
"There's no need to ask, of course it can be solved using magic." Duan Qing reluctantly snapped his fingers and slowly raised the disc in front of him again: "First of all, you need to use the light wind technique to lighten it.
The weight of the body, this thing can only be used under the current situation. If we were fighting in the previous connected area, we would be blown away by the storm the moment it takes effect..."
"Then - get up!"
He let out a soft drink, and then a trace of emerald green light flashed across the surface of the magic disc that was stuffed into the Wind Stone. Countless breezes appeared out of thin air and surrounded everyone, followed by lines visible to the naked eye.
, wrapping their slightly frivolous bodies in the rising wonderful feeling: "Okay, okay, the 'Breath of Wind' method is indeed feasible, but in order to prevent accidents, I specially adjusted the speed of the rise...
"
The wall that was unrecognizable due to the dim light kept passing in front of several people, and the slowly rising vision was gradually shrouded in a magical halo shrouded in emerald green light. The unknown scene was also in the sound of Duan Qing closing his mouth involuntarily.
Slowly appearing in the dim field of vision, the originally unchanged wall surface also began to show some strange phenomena and changes: "This, this is... a pipeline?"
"It seems to be the same pipeline as the one in the passage just now, but it doesn't look like a magic pipeline."
"Is there any magic reaction?"
"I don't know how effective their isolation is. Anyway, I didn't feel any traces of magic on these pipelines. But if it is true that historical relics left over thousands of years ago retain such complete functions, this quality
It can be considered as enough - yes, yes."
The pipelines illuminated by the light green light gradually began to feel a little more obstructed. The intertwined pipelines also began to tangle together as the height increased, and they twisted their bodies to avoid these entangled lines.
Xueling Huanbing then shook Wugen's body at his feet, and subconsciously hugged the waist of Duan Qing who was speaking: "My physical strength is not enough right now, you'd better move faster."
"Who do you think I am? A super hacker who can hack into the entire system building by simply plugging into a circuit?" Duan Qing curled his lips casually, and Duan Qing, who was also holding Xue Ling Huan Bing's body, let out a burst of helplessness.
Smile: "And what I'm talking about is not the reaction of the magic circuit, but the road has come to an end."
"So fast?" Looking at the nearby rock formations blocking his head, Xue Ling Huan Bing couldn't help but widen his eyes: "There is no passage at all."
"Don't be disappointed in a hurry, look at what's ahead of us."
After gesturing behind Xue Ling Huan Bing, Duan Qing whispered calmly: "Although the rocks above seem to be naturally formed, this crack in the wall does not appear to be naturally formed."
The knotted pipelines and loop-like walls finally changed in the direction indicated by Duan Qing, extending horizontally at a ninety-degree angle to the front of the dark space. The dug cave had the same existence as this platform.
Another gap formed by the combination of each other then quietly appeared in front of them with the heads of the two players protruding and the glistening green light protruding from their bodies: "Is this - the roof of the building?
"
"And the roof looks like an office building... Even in the Free Continent, I haven't seen this style of building for a long time."
"Because the houses on this continent are all built with bricks or magic, there don't seem to be many things built with cement and concrete as materials."
After pondering carefully for a while, Duan Qing, who was floating on the spot, then focused his gaze on the same narrow and long gap again: "Although I can also use magic to do this, I have to sacrifice the fundamentals and choose the inferior.
Ordinary magicians will not do things that make up for shortcomings."
"If this is really a building, it would seem a little out of place with the surrounding ruins."
He smiled at the other party, and at the same time took the lead in reaching out and placing his hand on the edge of the gap.
"Let's go in and take a look."
