Darkness erodes the mind.

There was severe pain in the back of his neck. He Qiyang felt as if he was in the water, flowing with the waves. He had no strength in his body and could not lift his hands. His eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.

He Qiyang only felt something lifting him, and then there was the sound of metal colliding with each other. Then, with a hard push from behind, he fell down. Because he had no strength, he couldn't move even if he was conscious, so he could only

Let your body fall forward according to the opponent's strength.

"Crack!"

He only felt that he fell heavily on an iron fence. Along with his movements, there was a sound of iron chains hitting, and then a burst of footsteps left, gradually getting further away.

Is this the right place?

He Qiyang leaned on the place where he was lying down, rarely thinking about it. He now had no strength in his body and could not open his eyes. It was difficult to maintain his clear consciousness. Now that he had reached the spot, he could no longer hold on and fell asleep vaguely.

.

Another unknown amount of time passed.

He Qiyang only felt that there was a lot of light in front of him, and there were a lot of rustling sounds of clothes rubbing against his ears, which was a bit dazzling. He frowned and subconsciously opened his eyes.

What he saw in front of him made his pupils shrink.

This is a huge cave dwelling,

There was a milky white stone above the cave ceiling, thick at the top and pointed at the bottom. He could see clearly through the fence above his head. It was at this time that he realized that he was in a gray-black iron cage.

.

There are dozens of such cages in cave dwellings.

There is a person in each cage, either unconscious or awake.

He took a look and saw that they were all about the same age as him, and they looked like they were about to awaken. Thinking of this, a thought flashed in his eyes, did the person who was about to awaken so quickly want to do something?

After a moment, a light flashed in my mind.

Wait... If he remembered correctly, He Qiyang thought of the records in a certain book he had read and then thought of the words he heard about gods before he fell into coma, and his face became ugly.

It's hard not to imagine the gods and young men and women who are about to awaken.

Sacrifice.

There is no shortage of crazy people in every era. However, in this era where everyone will awaken their power, madness will only become more unscrupulous.

Just as he was thinking about it, a strange voice suddenly appeared next to him: "Excuse me, is this He Qiyang?"

Um?

When He Qiyang heard his name, he immediately raised his head and looked at the place where the sound came from. He saw a young man wearing a skirt-like hem made of coarse cloth dyed dark blue and wearing a mandarin jacket of the same color on his upper body. He looked like he had the aura of the mountains.

The long hair is braided into a long and thin braid, and the end of the hair is decorated with a scorpion-shaped silver ornament.

This unique outfit immediately awakened He Qiyang's memory. This outfit was so eye-catching that it was unique even among classes with different shapes.

This is his classmate, Miao Yin.

The characteristic is that they always have scorpion-like clothing, decorations or tattoos on their bodies.

That guy He Kuang had gossiped with him and said that Miao Yin was from a village with long roots outside Shicheng. That village was so powerful that it was said that there was an ancestral spirit who had been protecting them, and that ancestral spirit was Xie.

shaped creature.

The risk value is very high.

He Qiyang believes this.

In today's world, it is safe in the city. Being alone as a small village outside is dangerous. Being able to face the surrounding beasts and monsters alone and still live happily is enough to prove the strength of that village.

Even when his father asked him to give the invitation letter, he also considered giving it to Miao Yin.

Unexpectedly, it was interrupted and was not handed over.

Now it seems that He Qiyang glanced at the opponent's cage and was caught in it? It seems that that group of people specifically found children with high talents? Although he didn't pay attention to the outside world when he woke up, he wanted to come to Miao Yin.

The talent is definitely not low.

Miao Yin was not sure. Looking at the back of the person in front of him, he just felt familiar and couldn't help but ask. As soon as he finished speaking, the man's face looked over. As soon as he saw this handsome face that was so handsome that people and gods were angry, he immediately relaxed.

tone.

It was indeed He Qiyang.

He was afraid that he had recognized the wrong person.

He Qiyang also noticed his relief and couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "You're not sure it's me, but you still dare to ask?"

This guy doesn't seem to be an unwary guy.

When Miao Yin heard this, she touched her nose and said, "You look familiar, mainly because my cousin saw the feather tattoo on your wrist when the man in black robe brought you here."

"Now I feel seventy-eight percent convinced."

"You woke up again just now. You seemed to be observing something, so you asked."

"Anyway, everyone was caught in the cage. Even if I admit my mistake, I can't be tricked." Miao Yin was also very single, and even said it in a scornful tone.

"Cousin?" However, He Qiyang was concerned about another point in his words. He remembered that Miao Yin came to Shicheng to go to school alone and had no relatives.

"Nuo, right next to you." Miao Yin was not afraid that He Qiyang knew about his relationship with her cousin. Maybe it was because they were both classmates, so they felt a little more close. Well, it was not ruled out that he was deliberately disguised, but from the beginning

He Qiyang breathed a sigh of relief at first, but he reasonably suspected that this man was pretending to be weak.

The same familiar scent.

Maybe they want to form an alliance and find out the other party's true intentions in three seconds.

He Qiyang followed his gaze and saw a woman with green eyes next to Miao Yin. Her lips looked a bit like a snake. She must have just awakened. She was dressed similarly to Miao Yin, but she was

A snake-shaped silver ornament was tied to the end of the braid.

He Qiyang's eyes stayed on the snake silver jewelry for a moment, then he changed time, turned his head, and asked Miao Yin: "You and your cousin are not from the same village?"

The words were interrogative, but the tone was very affirmative.

Miao Yin blinked and said, "How do you know? Oh, you seemed to have seen silver jewelry just now, no wonder."

"Okay, my cousin is indeed not from our village, but she is indeed a cousin."

"I was also surprised to see her here. She disappeared three days ago. Our village and theirs were on the verge of death. I didn't expect that she was kidnapped by this group of people."

The woman with green eyes glanced at her cousin and then at He Qiyang.

He Qiyang met her eyes and asked: "You and your cousin should not be in the same batch. Did you come before us?"

His mind was spinning rapidly. Through that piece of information, He Qiyang could know a lot of things.

For example, this woman did not come here at the same time as Miao Yin. She also saw the scene when he came here and knew what happened when he was unconscious.

To summarize, you can ask for news,

Miao Qing looked at He Qiyang with green eyes. She was not as dramatic as her cousin. On the contrary, her expression was very calm. When she heard He Qiyang's question, she raised her head and glanced at Miao Yin next to her. The latter did not stop him.

Meaning, she nodded and said, "I came in the group ahead of you."

"The time was three days ago."

"And when I came here, there was already a group of people in the cave dwelling."

He Qiyang narrowed his eyes instantly, sensing something was wrong, and said, "In other words, we are the third batch of people to arrive here? You are the second batch."

"Yes, that's right."

"In the past three days since I came here, people in black robes have come to deliver food to us every day, always on time, usually three times a day. Apart from that, I have never seen anyone else."

"It's almost time for lunch delivery."

Just when He Qiyang was about to say something, the silver ornament at the end of Miao Yin's hair whip next to him suddenly moved. His exaggerated expression immediately stopped and returned to a serious expression. He raised his hand to stop the conversation between the two people next to him and looked at the entrance of the cave dwelling.

direction, and whispered: "Someone is coming."

The two shut up immediately.

With an expressionless expression, He Qiyang sat back down on the fence where he had just collapsed. He was a little far away from the Miao Yin siblings. He deliberately created an unfamiliar scene. It is always right to be cautious when facing such a scene.

He raised his head and looked at the cave entrance.

Sure enough, just as Miao Yin said, a figure in black robe appeared at the entrance of the cave.

has a problem!

He Qiyang observed for a moment, his eyes lingered on the hands of the man in black robes, and his brows couldn't help but wrinkle. According to Miao Qing's words just now, logically speaking, it should be time to deliver food.

But the man in black robes didn't hold food in his hands. Instead, he had a machine in his hands.

The machine is very small, about the size of a palm, and is silver-white.

He glanced in the direction of Miao Qing from the corner of his eye and found that the latter had the same puzzled look on his face. His expression didn't look like he was faking it. It was obvious that something unknown had happened.

He Qiyang withdrew his gaze and looked at the man in black robe again. However, the man in black robe opened his mouth from the entrance of the cave and held the small silver machine in his hand. He approached each cage. He Qiyang noticed that every time he came to a cage, the man in black robe

People will look at the silver machine in their hands, and the machine will light up.

It seems to be testing something.

He just watched silently as the man in black robe came to his cage with the machine.

"drop!"

This is the sound of the machine.

With the sound of the machine, he felt that his mind was much clearer, and his originally fuzzy brain seemed to have been poured with cold water, and he shivered violently.

Is this machine meant to wake people up?

Wait, where are those people? He Qiyang turned back and looked at the route that the black-robed man walked, and found that all the people in the cages on that route were awake, regardless of whether they were unconscious before.

Things developed beyond everyone's expectations.

Especially Miao Yin, He Qiyang was not far away from him and saw with his own eyes that this person stopped pretending for the first time and narrowed his eyes.

He didn't make a sound, just watched everything quietly.

The man in black robe moved very quickly, and after a while, everyone was awake. He said in a low and hoarse voice: "I didn't expect that the quality this time was good, and they all passed the standard."

"It seems we can proceed to the next step."

Then, He Qiyang saw another group of men in black robes appearing at the door of the cave. However, unlike the leader at first glance, most of them maintained a part of their animal form and exuded a dangerous aura. This group of people picked up
