Falling Star Caves, a place where the direction cannot be determined.
The fog was heavy, the mountains and rocks were rugged, and a few protruding crystal stones not far away were so eye-catching in the eyes of the convoy.
"We are back here again, something is wrong, very wrong!"
A burly middle-aged strong man wearing navy blue armor, holding a sword and shield, frowned, carefully guarded in front of the chariot, and advanced slowly.
Even though there were only a few dozen evil spirits around at this time and there was no threat, the middle-aged strong man still had an ominous premonition in his heart.
suddenly,
"Ah" screams sounded, and when the middle-aged strong man turned his head and looked around, he found that there was a missing figure in his team.
"Where's Xiao Wu?"
Hearing the words of the guard captain, the guards suddenly widened their eyes.
"Xiaowu...Xiaowu is missing!"
"He can't go to the tub."
"I just remembered that he was still there."
The middle-aged strong man frowned even deeper. Was he the only one who heard the scream just now?
The ominous omen in his heart became more and more obvious, but he didn't know where it came from, and he had no clue. He could only order to continue moving forward, and the chariot also drove forward. Even if it was driving on the rugged land, it was still extremely smooth, and the wheels passed by
The rough place seemed to have become smoother.
This is a certain kind of special ability, fixed on the craft chariot.
At the four corners of the top of the chariot, there were four candlelights burning brightly, and the diffuse invisible power dispersed the surrounding thick gray fog.
only,
The fog seemed to be getting thicker and thicker, and the evil spirits continued to appear as if they were not affected by the candlelight. All this seemed abnormal.
The middle-aged strong man kept frowning, and suddenly, another scream sounded.
As soon as the sound started, the others burst out, but it was still slow. The place in front of them was empty, leaving no traces, except for one less person in the team of guards.
The convoy had to stop.
The burly man walked up to the chariot with a serious look on his face, "Your Royal Highness, the situation is not good. We are afraid that we have fallen into some kind of dangerous situation."
Inside the carriage, a girl with a slightly immature face opened the curtain.
She was wearing gorgeous clothes and six-pointed star earrings. Despite her young age, she still had royal majesty between her brows. She clenched her hands tightly at this time, seeming a little nervous but still forcing herself to calm down.
"We have walked this route hundreds of times in Falling Star City. One possibility is that we were affected by the fog tide and deviated unknowingly. Another possibility is that there have been new changes on this route."
No matter which one, it is not uncommon in the strange world.
Even if it is a confirmed and safe route, it is normal for danger to suddenly appear.
This is a strange world, and danger is the norm!
"Uncle Zell, what should we do now?"
"Use the divination ritual first to see if we can find a way out."
When the guard captain Zell thought of this, he immediately took out some materials from the storage device and arranged the ceremony on the spot. It took a lot of time to arrange the ceremony in such a dangerous environment, and the risks were also very high, but at this time
, they can't find a way out, and continuing to move forward will not only circle back to the original place, but also cause everyone in the team to disappear one by one.
There are invisible dangers!
You have to find out clearly.
Zell called a few accompanying mages who were better at rituals, and after some fiddling, he began to divine.
Click——
The divination ritual suddenly shattered.
failed.
"Influenced by a high-level existence!"
A mage who is proficient in divination murmured, conjecturing based on limited information, his face gradually turning pale, "We... we may be in the body of a terrible existence!"
Upon hearing this interpretation, combined with the various experiences he had experienced at this time, the burly man's eyes widened and his face turned a little pale.
"There is a possibility that we have met..."
"The rules are weird!"
…
"The rules are weird?"
Most of the guards were still at a loss, and even a few of the 'knowledgeable' mages who accompanied the team also frowned.
Only the third princess in the chariot,
His figure swayed slightly, and his face couldn't help but turn a little pale.
The burly captain took a deep breath,
"Above the Seven Stars, there are three types of evil spirits that are comparable to mythical beings. The first type is the nest type, which is huge and terrifying. It can continuously hatch lower-level evil spirits with lower star ratings than itself. There is almost no limit.
.”
"Such a nest type, as long as it wants to, it can hatch a wave of evil that will destroy an ordinary world, causing annihilation."
"The second type is the conventional type. Conventional means that their fighting methods are similar to mythical beings, and their body size is often small. There is a saying that they are the upper-level secretive evil spirits among the medium and low star evil spirits."
"The third type is the regular evil. This evil is the most terrifying. It has no body and covers the world. Once caught in it, even mythical beings may fall."
"hiss--"
After listening to this popular science, the guards' faces became paler and their legs trembled a little.
They are indeed elites, but facing the Seven Stars, they are still the most terrifying category among the Seven Stars. Little people like them cannot withstand this battle!
Probably realizing that what he said was not good for the morale of the team, the burly man added,
"But we still have hope!"
"If we encounter a lair-type or conventional seven-star world-destroying evil, we will definitely have no way to survive. But since we encounter a regular type, there is still a glimmer of hope."
"Rule-type, as the name suggests, kills according to rules. This kind of evil has its own hunting mechanism and behavioral logic. But at the same time, if we can explore this evil hunting logic and find loopholes, we can escape.
!”
"As long as we can find a loophole, even a second or third level awakened person can escape, let alone us."
Seeing the hope rekindled in the eyes of the guards, the burly man also breathed a sigh of relief.
However, only he himself understands that if the logic of behavior is so easy to detect and the loopholes are so easy to find, how can this type of evil be considered the most terrifying, and how can it make the existence of mythology possible to fall!
Hope is still very slim.
At this time, as the team stopped moving forward, there was no such thing as the sudden disappearance of the guards.
"That kind of invisible swallowing may... be related to our pace. It won't be triggered if we stop."
he said.
Seeing the joy on the faces of the guards, the guard captain Zell retreated to the Third Princess and whispered, "Your Highness, there is not only one regular evil mechanism. Moving forward may trigger random devouring, but stop..."
After taking a few glances around, the gray fog seemed to be getting thicker, and the area covered by the candlelight of the chariot seemed to be further compressed?
No, it doesn't seem to be.
After recalling just now, with Liu Jie's strong memory and meticulous observation, the guard captain made a comparison of the surrounding environment.
The fog has indeed become thicker, and the range of the candlelight that can dispel the fog has shrunk by more than three inches.
Once the gray fog completely engulfs the candlelight, it is likely that their life will disappear.
No, they may not be able to survive until that time.
As the convoy stopped moving forward, the gray fog slowly pressed forward, and more and more evil spirits appeared, and even disaster-level evil spirits began to appear.
"The power is passing."
"The evil is getting stronger and stronger."
