Berry - an exclusive unit of length measurement in the free world. Because it follows localized habits and is in line with the communication methods of the game world, this term often appears in conversations between players and NPCs. After the older generation
The attempts and conclusions of the pioneers show that the length represented by this unit is probably slightly shorter than one meter. It is precisely because of this that this just-in-distance unit has become one of the most commonly used units by players and aborigines.
one.
However, from the current perspective, this length is obviously not suitable for the current situation Duan Qing is facing, because the straight-line distance represented by a few miles is completely inconsistent with the width of the void scene in the universe they just passed through.
of.
"It should be because space is distorted."
Putting away his adventurer's manual, Duan Qing looked back at the wall he had just walked through before: "The singularity of the void should appear wherever the void may appear, and the realistic distance between them should
It has nothing to do with the distance we see inside. Flying a few miles away inside may only allow us to move the distance of a wall in reality..."
"We have only moved the distance of one wall." Maggie stared straight ahead: "We just moved from the passage just now to the passage on the other side of the wall."
"Walls made of void... Is this the true face of the underground pipe network?" Duan Qing sighed in surprise: "The builders of Zaraha City did not hesitate to spend their money."
"The residents of Zaraha City and the past city lord definitely do not have such ability and determination." Maggie walked forward and shook her head: "This place..."
"It should be the work of a greater man."
As Duan Qing nodded in agreement, the woman wrapped in a black tights slowly squatted down, showing off her amazing back curve while inspecting the human corpse in front of her: "The leg is injured.
The bones were damaged. Although they were not completely broken, they should have affected his actions..."
"The chest was penetrated. This should be the cause of his death." Maggie, who reached out to touch the skeletal chest, said calmly: "There are no traces of metal scratches...it should have been penetrated by energy."
"Energy that is enough to penetrate the human body... should be able to catch up with the strength of a great magician." Duan Qing, who came forward, also squatted down: "Ordinary magic cannot achieve such hardness, except for more advanced ones.
energy……"
"For example...the ones you just mentioned."
Nodding towards the other party, the woman then stood up in the direction where the body fell: "There should be no more clues on him... let's go."
"It would be best to find out who they are."
Duan Qing glanced around the withered bones for a while again, and then followed Maggie's steps towards the deeper part of the passage: "Maybe the reason why they died here."
"There should have been a battle of a certain scale here." Maggie, pointing at the walls around the passage, replied casually: "Look at these sword marks and traces of energy burning... Such traces should not be left by ordinary magic.
Down."
"One party has been running away." He reached out and wiped the traces for a while, then Duan Qing looked towards the front of the passage they were pointing to: "But he should have killed the previous person."
"He didn't just kill the person before."
Amidst the footsteps that were too quiet to be noticed, Maggie's figure suddenly disappeared beside Duan Qing: "And..."
"There are many similar ones."
Scattered swords, unidentifiable charred armor, fragments of rags nailed to the ground, and countless dead bones that were beginning to look pale... As the passage gradually opened up, a post-war scene with countless wreckage gradually emerged.
Now in front of Duan Qing, he sniffed hard as he gradually approached, and then used his strong willpower to filter out the terrible smell coming from his nose. Carefully avoiding the fragments of battlefield ruins on the ground, he
His eyes kept looking back and forth among the bones intertwined with various weapons, and finally found the figure of Maggie who had disappeared before in a corner: "Well... it seems like this is it."
"Is he the one who caused this look?" He pointed at the withered skeleton sitting against the wall that Maggie was facing, and after a while he nodded his head: "Look there, and there... so
Many traces emerged with this guy as the starting point."
"..."
"Well, that's not right."
Facing the other party's silence, Duan Qing, who observed for a while, shook his head again: "The two bodies next to him are okay, but what's going on with the one outside? The direction in which he fell is completely different from this mark.
Come on, and the injured part doesn’t quite fit..."
"This person... I am very familiar with him."
Without answering Duan Qing's question, Maggie's next words made Duan Qing's eyelids jump involuntarily: "He should... be my teacher."
"...I'm sorry." Duan Qing, who was silent for a moment again, lowered his head apologetically: "Sure enough, I still let you see the scene you least wanted to see."
"I said I'm fine. After all, the relationship between me and that teacher is not very deep." Maggie replied without looking back: "Although it is very regrettable that I didn't say thank you to him personally.
,but……"
"Let's check it out first." She pointed at the corpse in front of her, and then glanced in the direction of Duan Qing: "Compared with remembering things, I'm more interested in the cause of his death..."
boom--
A sharp roar then appeared inside the corpse that the two people were facing, completely covering up Maggie's unfinished words. A loud roar also appeared directly in front of Duan Qing, like a jet of water.
Convection generally blew him away. He hit hard against the wall of the passage not far away. Duan Qing suppressed the churning feeling that suddenly rose in his body, and then he was about to hit him again when the next strong air flow was about to hit him.
Before he hit himself, he rolled towards his side with difficulty: "Who is it?"
"who is it?"
Amidst the chaotic sounds of the white withered bones being thrown around by Duan Qing, a similar rhetorical question also echoed in the not-wide stone passage, and then with the gradual convergence of the air flow, they all converged into the depths of the passage.
The abyss is far away: "Tell me your name."
"I am...we are a group of ignorant adventurers."
After secretly looking at Maggie who was hiding on the other side of the corner, Duan Qing was the first to give his answer: "Please forgive me, but we got here accidentally..."
"Ignorant adventurer!"
What answered him was the black energy rolling in front of him again, and the increasingly intense feeling of darkness: "Accept the sanction of justice!"
Boom!
The heavy ringing of the bell accompanied by the loud knocking sound appeared in the depths of Duan Qing's mind, instantly shattering his consciousness into thousands of tiny fragments. Duan Qing, who was aware of the mental attack used by the other party, then hurriedly used force.
Dispelling the dizzy feeling of separation, he gritted his teeth and rolled away from the opponent's subsequent tentacle attack. A subtle sound of breaking through the air followed by a few dark rays of light appeared on Duan who was half lying on the ground.
In front of Duan Qing, the black aura that arrived later was blocked from Duan Qing's body. The unknown consciousness that had been entangled with Duan Qing then gave up its urgent entanglement and came towards rescue.
He flew in the direction of Maggie: "Who are you?"
"An ignorant lost girl." Maggie's deep and cold voice answered him: "Do you...remember?"
"Ignorant and pitiful girl..."
The black energy paused in front of her for a moment, and then transformed into a huge air ball that suddenly expanded: "Hahahahaha!"
"This is the wish that has been pursued for thousands of years! This is the fulfillment of the last dream!"
In the scene where immeasurable black energy suddenly spread, a completely different white light and shadow suddenly appeared in the air between Duan Qing and Maggie, enough to illuminate the entire passage extremely brightly, and then the consciousness was also there.
The increasingly frenzied laughter spread out the space around the two people: "This feeling of being about to realize your wish... is really wonderful! Hahahaha——"
Buzz!
The harsh friction sound that made the teeth sour then appeared on the side of the ball of light, interrupting the laughter represented by the ball of light again. Duan Qing, who raised the black dagger, then moved down hard.
Pull, a deep crack was cut on the surface of the light group that was still swallowing forward. A terrifying roar followed, along with the familiar purple-black breath, fiercely in the space crack created by Duan Qing.
Running out, the swallowing power that seemed to have no big difference then quickly became entangled with the light group, and disappeared into the void in front of Duan Qing's eyes: "You! You actually..."
"How dare you let them out!"
In the scene where the white light suddenly amplified, a small proto-nucleus with fiery red light then appeared in the center where the white light exploded again, and then another identical fiery red human shape gradually formed amidst the screams one after another around it.
The pale bones filtered by the white light then emitted light smoke, and then gradually transformed into phantoms that were constantly making fighting movements in Duan Qing's field of vision, without causing any impact on the real world.
Any phantom movement that affected it was like a red cloth covering the front of the bull, completely angering the red light floating in the center: "Burn in my anger! Evil!"
"Is this guy sick..."
After whispering these words in his mouth, Duan Qing took out his small buckler, and then when a manual knocking sound suddenly appeared, he instantly moved to where Maggie was. The red gas
The waves then scattered like waves hitting the rocks, passing through the invisible barrier held up by Duan Qing, and then burned all the white shadows behind Duan Qing like firewood: "This is fire magic!
But it’s not all fire magic… it not only has the effect of destroying demons, but may also have the effect of dispelling illusions!”
"Perhaps you shouldn't call it fire magic." What answered him was the voice of Maggie who was hiding behind and disappeared again: "But you should call it...the incarnation of anger."
"Before, it was the incarnation of joy, and before that, it was the incarnation of resentment..."
With the cover of the invisible barrier released by Duan Qing, her figure rushed towards the fiery red light: "And now..."
"It should be the embodiment of sadness."
Black lines appeared in the center of the flames along with Maggie's suddenly stretched out hands, stirring the light of the flames that was continuously radiating outwards into black air all over the sky. The surroundings of the passage were extremely brightly illuminated by the blazing flames.
It also became darker as the light gradually mixed with black, and finally the body that fell together with Maggie fell silent. His hands were gently lifted in the air, and Duan Qing, who followed closely, hurriedly lifted the body that was about to fall to the ground.
The woman hugged the surrounding red and black flames that were spreading out, and while watching the movement in front of her with vigilance, she suddenly felt a chill: "This is..."
"This is what that person left for me."
Slowly loosening her grip on the opponent's hand, Maggie pressed a dark cross on Duan Qing's right arm, then turned around with difficulty, quietly looking at the man who was gradually engulfed by black flames.
The direction of the consciousness: "Now it seems... he should still recognize this thing."
"...I did not complete my mission, I failed."
The swaying black light then appeared in front of the passage where two people were half-kneeling on the ground. In front of the withered bones that the two people were facing before, the figure represented by the consciousness also slowly condensed into shape like a ghost, feebly.
Floating on the surface of his own corpse: "I failed to save you, Kasha, and now..."
"I can't even save myself."
"...This guy shouldn't be able to communicate with us now, right?" So Duan Qing curled his lips helplessly: "What should we do next?"
"The energy in this pendant may be able to awaken his consciousness, but it cannot save his life." Maggie, who fell into Duan Qing's arms, said in a weak voice: "What we can do... is probably to cherish his last moments.
It’s time.”
"There is no hope in this world."
Before Duan Qing could continue to ask questions, the black flame spoke again in the increasingly shrinking scene: "It has no results, no future, it has nothing, it...is dying."
"Man's only dream is in the sky, but no one can find it." The flame suddenly jumped a little: "No one can find it, fate...has abandoned it!"
"What on earth is this guy talking about..."
"Go find it!"
Unlike the black flames that gradually disappeared, a loud shout suddenly appeared above the withered bones: "The ancient glory will become a guidepost, and the ancient magic will turn into a flying ritual! You can't wait any longer.
Yes! You..."
Snapped.
In the refreshing sound, the flames and the increasingly shrill shouts were extinguished in front of Duan Qing, leaving only a faint glow emitting a scream, together with the unyielding screams.
The finished words dissipated into the silent air.
