If excuses are meaningless, then when others think you have a problem, you'd better really have one.
"Are you sure?"
As the sage announced that he would not abandon or give up, not only Scrooge and the others, but also the remaining two members of the group reacted in disbelief.
The left hand in front of me not only behaves abnormally, but is even disabled now. No matter from any angle, I can't see its value.
"certainly."
The sage had no intention of continuing to explain, and his tone did not allow for refutation.
"Take off their belongings, we should set off."
"good."
Ais was the first to respond, throwing a golden belt in her hand directly to the group, and then looked at the sage with a questioning look.
"Left hand glove?"
Her meaning was very clear, should she take off her gloves to avoid unnecessary risks?
"No need? Then you won't know what to call me."
Before the sage could speak, the left hand standing there suddenly spoke.
The blood that had covered half of his face didn't seem to affect his hearing, and he even told a cold joke.
"That makes sense."
In the air silenced by the cold jokes, the sage smiled lowly.
"We'd better continue to call him his left hand."
"...Do we need to treat him?"
The atmosphere seemed to be getting weird rapidly. Ais hesitated for a moment and looked at the two eyeballs thrown on the ground.
"No need, I don't think he needs it."
The sage shook his head.
"Right left hand?"
"Yes, I feel very good now. This is the right way to enter the Holy Land of the Academy."
The latter replied simply.
"It seems there is no doubt, let's go."
The sage gestured towards the group card.
…
No one made a sound. In the complex underground ruins, the exploration team walked through the ups and downs of the forked roads under the guidance of the sages.
This march lasted for quite some time, and was finally blocked by a prostrate figure on the road ahead.
"Snake feet."
Following the sage's call, the person at the end of the line walked up with a slightly complicated expression.
This should have been the responsibility of the left hand, but it is obvious that he is unable to do it at the moment.
Or even if he is willing to do it, there is a high probability that he will be banned.
…
As the team member codenamed Snake Foot stepped forward, the group card had already given way.
But most people's eyes did not pay attention to this first frontal battle, but looked at the only blind team member.
At the request of the sage, the left hand was thoughtfully placed in the center of the team.
But along the way, he acted as if he was not affected at all.
Even when there is no one to support and guide me, there is still no lag in my actions.
Perhaps it can be explained as having excellent hearing, but it always feels more like receiving some invisible guidance, which makes people wary.
Well!
At this time, a slightly painful sound came, and a dark wave condensed on Snake Foot's legs, and quickly became turbulent.
And just when the living corpse on the ground arched its body and tried to start taking action, the blackness that had accumulated to the extreme drew a smart arc and struck it like a snake.
No damage could be seen on the surface, and the snake shape disappeared in a flash. However, the living corpse that was attacked suddenly fell to the ground, and pieces of it withered into ashes.
At the same time, the attacking Snakefoot let out a slightly heavy gasp.
Shocking purple bruises appeared all over his body, as if his skin and flesh were about to be torn.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Indicating that he could return to his original position, the sage commanded the group to continue moving forward.
But just as the team passed the ashes of the living corpses, he signaled to stop again.
The team members were puzzled by this, after all, there was only one road in front of them.
"Left hand, what do you think?"
Ignoring the many confused looks, the sage looked at the blind left hand in the middle of the team the next moment.
How to watch it...can he still watch it?
Ais, who was closest to her left hand, looked like she didn't know what expression to make.
However, the person being consulted squatted down without saying a word and grabbed a handful of ashes from the ground.
Under everyone's gaze, he crossed the group sign at the front and sprinkled it into the air on the other side of the road.
Then a magical change occurred. A small half of the ashes actually stopped on a flat surface and did not continue to fall, as if there was an invisible bridge there.
"very good."
The sage looked very satisfied.
"Without the encumbrance of your eyes, you become more sensitive."
"continue."
Everyone who was in a daze for the next moment was asked to move on.
…
With a crisp knocking sound, Tuanpai walked to the end of the invisible bridge, and the golden shield in his hand was hit by two living corpses again.
And the layers of ripples that rose above it also blocked a black snake from the outside at the next moment, and the living corpse that launched the attack fell down.
Facing the remaining two zombies who quickly turned to the defensive, the last snake foot was called up again.
After a tense confrontation, the two living corpses also fell down.
During the whole process, the left hand in the team did not make any movement, just waited quietly.
The sage, who saw all this, motioned for everyone to enter through the opened secret door.
Inside the secret passage, the scene was much more dazzling than outside, making the atmosphere even more depressing while walking.
The advantage of this is that the team can move even faster than outside.
"stop."
However, not long after, the left hand, which was one of the reasons for the depressing atmosphere, suddenly broke the silence.
"how?"
Narrowly avoiding bumping into the person in front of her, Charlotte couldn't help but frown and ask.
His left hand did not speak, but pointed towards the back of the line.
"Snake feet?"
Looking back in confusion, Charlotte was immediately surprised.
A figure was running quickly into the distance.
"Go and have a look."
Without waiting for Charlotte to ask further questions, the sage gave the order directly, and the entire team activated instantly.
Although I couldn't understand the reason, Snake Foot obviously just left the team and was quickly caught up.
"what happened?"
However, Charlotte, who was running at the front, could hardly believe her eyes after seeing the figure clearly in the darkness.
Although it looks like a snake with legs, its movements and demeanor are already like a living corpse.
Unfortunately, Snake Foot, who was running away in a hurry, had no intention of answering his question.
Seeing that there was no hope of escape, with a painful roar, darkness surged over his body again.
Using the ability multiple times in a short period of time directly tore cracks in his already shaky body.
The next moment, the black snake, which had accumulated to the extreme, whipped Charlotte hard.
Unfortunately, this almost life-consuming attack was blocked by the group cards that quickly caught up, and scattered on the golden shield.
With a cry of pain and relief, the snake's broken body fell to the ground, its flesh and blood disintegrating.
"how so?"
Charlotte, who didn't get the answer, couldn't help but turn her head and look back, her eyes blank.
