The sky is full of yellow sand dancing in the wind. In the Desert of Fire, ordinary people cannot see clearly the scenery three meters away, let alone level up and fight monsters here!
Like Ling Yun, who relies on his senses to identify the surrounding environment and monsters, he may not be able to find another person in his dream!
At this moment, Ling Yun was standing on a sand dune with his legs spread apart. The roaring wind not only rolled up the yellow sand, but also lifted up Ling Yun's cloak, making a "Woo! Woo!" sound!
Breathing heavily, Ling Yun had never felt so tired. After condensing five drops of liquid mental power again, Ling Yun felt that he had reached his limit. An irresistible feeling of fatigue filled Ling Yun's nerves. If he continued to condense it forcefully,
It may cause unpredictable harm to yourself.
Therefore, after condensing the fifth drop of liquid mental power, Ling Yun decided to call it a day and wait until his mental power recovered before continuing to condense his mental power.
After his breath calmed down a bit, Ling Yun rushed into the group of refreshed monsters again with the fifth drop of liquid mental power. He used his body skills to skillfully avoid the surrounding monsters and pulled all the surrounding monsters behind him.
, but when Ling Yun threw out the purple lotus flame carrying the liquid mental power, and was about to control the explosion of the liquid mental power, an accident happened, a feeling of dizziness and a pain of a needle pricking the brain at the same time.
came.
This accident not only caused the drop of liquid mental power to collapse into a gaseous state in advance, but also caused Ling Yun's perception to be blinded for a few seconds!
Fortunately, the drop of liquid mental power that collapsed in advance fell just in front of those monsters, causing the monsters in the front row to collectively fall into a state of dizziness, and the pursuit speed of the entire monster group was stalled for a while.
It was precisely because of this short period of time that Ling Yun finally got rid of the dizziness and pins and needles feeling.
"I didn't expect that excessive use of mental power would have such strong side effects! I have to pay attention to restraint in the future... Phew..." Ling Yun took two deep breaths of air and shook his head vigorously to wake himself up.
At this time, the monster that had returned to its normal state had already rushed forward and surrounded Ling Yun. It was about to submerge Ling Yun.
With no room to retreat, Ling Yun had no choice but to sink his teeth. Gritting his teeth tightly and concentrating his mental power completely, Ling Yun managed to stabilize his surrounding perception.
Seeing the monsters swarming around him, Ling Yun smiled bitterly in his heart. If this continues, sooner or later he will be beaten to death by the monsters because he has no room to dodge!
In desperation, Ling Yun had no choice but to take a risk. He concentrated some mental energy and decisively released a shock wave in the direction where the monsters were sparse. After the release, a strong sense of dizziness swept over him again.
Ling Yun, who was well prepared, immediately bit the tip of his tongue. A heartbreaking pain made Ling Yun wake up for a moment. Without the slightest hesitation, Ling Yun immediately rushed towards the monsters who were in a dizzy state, relying on his body skills to cleverly fight against those standing still.
He passed through the gaps between the monsters and finally escaped from the monsters.
After getting rid of the monsters, Ling Yun did not dare to stop at all and rushed forward at a very fast speed. The monsters that were not stunned continued to chase Ling Yun.
Glancing at the monster chasing behind him, Ling Yun couldn't help but reveal a wry smile. It was the first time in his memory that he was chased by an ordinary monster in such a panic.
"How wonderful it would be if Xiao Zi was still with me at this time!" Ling Yun suddenly felt a little emotional in his heart. Although he is free to level up alone, he will occasionally encounter some emergencies that make him embarrassed, like
This is it now.
Maybe we should find a fixed team to level up together. Even if our mental power is overused, we don’t have to worry about encountering a situation like today. At this moment, Ling Yun couldn’t help but think of Kevin and the others. But he quickly rejected it.
After all, they already have a fixed group of five people. Although it is not impossible for Ling Yun to want to leave, but if this happens, it will inevitably affect the person who is squeezed out by him.
Unfortunately, Ling Yun would not do this kind of thing that would hurt others, so he denied Kevin and others.
After driving around a few times with the monster behind him, Ling Yun's mental strength finally recovered somewhat. Although he was still unable to use the shock wave normally, at least it would not affect Ling Yun's normal attacks.
After being chased for so long, Ling Yun inevitably felt a little angry. Now that he finally no longer had to run away, Ling Yun would not be polite.
Looking at the monsters that were chasing after him, the corners of Ling Yun's mouth could not help but curl up coldly, and a ball of purple flame suddenly appeared in his left hand, and then his whole figure faced the monsters that were chasing after him.
Soon after, the explosions of flames and the whines of monsters came one after another! Mixed with the howling of the wind, the sand dunes turned into a land of Shura.
After a long time, looking at the stumps on the ground and not a single complete monster corpse, Ling Yun finally relieved the suffocation in his heart. He didn't care about the bloody land around him that made people vomit, and just sat down.
On the ground, he was breathing heavily.
After sitting for a while, Ling Yun suddenly thought of something and hurriedly opened the prompt bar. Looking at several eye-catching red damage values, he couldn't help but frown. Looking at his blood volume again, Ling Yun's frown deepened.
Already.
At this time, he couldn't help but think of what Jasmine had said to him.
"Maybe one day you can eliminate all your weaknesses, but before that day comes, please learn how to accept support from others and give the same support to others..."
Thinking of Jasmine's smiling face at that time, a glimmer of light flashed in Ling Yun's eyes, and he smiled as if he had some enlightenment, and murmured: "I still can't change the laws here! Before I have the ability to transcend these laws,
Maybe you should try to integrate yourself into these laws!"
After taking a deep breath, Ling Yun slowly stood up and looked at the desert under his feet, his eyes full of nostalgia.
"It seems that I need to experience another kind of gaming life!" After saying that, Ling Yun's eyes flashed with anticipation, and then a smile appeared on his face, and he strode away from the flaming desert that he had been with for a long time.
!
In the Castle of the Dead, Anna sat on a chair with a sad look on her face, looking at the old photo on the wall in a daze, with two traces of tears still remaining on her face.
"Dong dong!" At this time, someone knocked on the door.
A knock on the door woke up Anna who was in a daze. Then Anna frowned and glanced at the door. When she sensed who was outside the door, a trace of panic suddenly flashed in her eyes. She hurriedly wiped away the tears on her face before getting up.
He walked over, opened the door, and then squeezed out a smile and said, "Grandpa, why are you here!"
Anna took a step to the side to make way for the old man outside the door. The old man was Anna's grandfather, the third elder Omar.
Before Omar stepped into Anna's room, he saw the tears that had not yet been wiped off Anna's face. Seeing this, Omar's face suddenly darkened and asked in a deep voice: "Anna, what happened?
Did you cry just now?"
"Grandpa, you saw it wrong, how could I cry?" Although Anna said this, her eyes unconsciously avoided Omar's sharp gaze.
"Anna, don't lie to grandpa. Grandpa watched you grow up! Can your little thoughts escape grandpa's eyes?" Omar's tone was a bit stern. Anna's parents left when she was very young.
Because of her, Anna was brought up by Omar.
And Omar has always regarded Anna as the apple of his eye, and cannot allow Anna to be aggrieved at all. Now seeing Anna's unnatural expression, Omar is already furious. No one knows Anna better than him. Anna has been better than Anna since she was a child.
Other children are much stronger, especially when they grow up. Unless she is greatly wronged, Anna will never cry easily!
"Anna, did someone bully you? Or did you say something that shouldn't have been said? Tell grandpa! Grandpa will seek justice for you!" Omar's tone became more and more gloomy, and he could not help but exude a powerful force.
momentum!
Feeling the aura released by Omar, Anna remained unmoved and just looked at Omar with expectation.
"Grandpa, Anna hasn't listened to your story for a long time. Tell Anna some more stories, okay?" Anna did not answer Omar, but made a small request.
Seeing Anna's expression, Omar was extremely helpless. Since Anna didn't want to talk, he couldn't bear to continue forcing Anna. However, after hearing Anna's request, Omar couldn't help but recall the scene when Anna pestered him to tell stories when he was a child.
Omar sighed softly, immediately put away the aura emanating from his body, showed a kind smile mixed with bitterness, and said: "Okay! As long as Anna likes it, grandpa will tell it to you. What story do you want to hear?"
"
"Dad, Mom! I want to hear the stories of my parents! Grandpa, you used to refuse to tell me. You always said you would tell me when I grow up. Now that I have grown up, you should tell me too.
I listened!" A faint smile flashed across Anna's face, and there was also a trace of expectation in her eyes!
Hearing Anna's words, Omar's brows suddenly frowned, with a hesitant look on his face.
Seeing this, Anna didn't say anything, just looked at Omar quietly.
Not long after, Omar let out a long sigh, glanced at Anna, and then slowly told a sad story from twenty years ago...
Twenty years ago, when Anna was still a baby, his parents Joan and Eisna entered the mysterious space under the castle to find the record in order to replace the contemporary Saint Leah who had not returned home.
A scroll that revealed the method of breaking the seal of the teleportation array. Accompanying them was Hill, who had high hopes at the time.
Because none of the tribesmen who entered there before them could come back, and the three of them were the three most outstanding young people in the tribe at that time, so everyone still had high hopes for them. So they returned to their homeland with them
With their longing, the three of them stepped onto the teleportation array to that mysterious space.
However, as time passed day by day, the three people still failed to return, and all the tribesmen gradually lost confidence in them.
Until one day three years later, the teleportation array under the castle suddenly opened. All the elders who sensed this abnormality rushed to the cave. However, when everyone rushed there, all they saw was the teleportation array covered in blood and unconscious.
Unawakened Hill.
Unfortunately, Joan and Eisna, who went to that mysterious space with Hill, never came back...
After listening to Omar's story about what happened twenty years ago, Anna's eyes couldn't help but moisten, and she murmured: "It turns out that mom and dad left for the sake of all the tribesmen..."
After sighing softly, Anna couldn't help but reveal a resolute light in her eyes, and said softly: "Why?"
Omar was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Anna meant by this.
"Why haven't we sent people there for so many years? Grandpa! Tell me why?" Anna stared into Omar's eyes and asked.
Faced with Anna's questioning, Omar showed a helpless smile on his face, and after a long sigh, he slowly said: "It is a decision jointly made by all the elders not to continue sending people to that mysterious space. Sending people there will only make things worse."
Our tribe has lost more elites! You should know that in recent years, fewer and fewer awakened tribesmen in our tribe have been awakened. Every awakened person is very important! For that unreachable dream of return, let our tribe continue to explore
That space, then gone forever, we can't do such a thing!" Omar's words were full of deep helplessness.
Anna did not make a sound, but stared at Omar closely. After a long time, Anna spoke again: "Grandpa, why didn't you stop mom and dad from going there? If you had stopped them, they would definitely not go there!"
Hearing Anna's words, the helplessness on Omar's face became more intense. He shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Anna, you don't understand your parents. They have extraordinary talents just like you. They reached six years old at a young age.
They have a great reputation in the clan, but despite this, they have never been able to catch up with one person, and that person is the current generation of saintess - Leah!"
Mentioning Leah, Omar's eyes couldn't help flashing a look of admiration, and continued: "Your parents and Leah are both students of Teacher Sola. Although they are classmates, your parents have always regarded Leah as a pursuer.
Target! It’s a pity that until the day Leah left, they couldn’t catch up with her!”
Speaking of this, Omar couldn't help but sigh, and then continued: "They knew that they would not be able to surpass Leah in their lifetime, so they thought of surpassing Leah in other aspects, so they decided to go there instead of Leah, and this decision
I also got the support of Teacher Sola! So they became more determined to go there, even if I tried to stop them, they wouldn’t listen!”
Omar closed his eyes, with a painful look on his face. A tear slipped quietly down his old cheek. After taking a deep breath with a slight trembling, Omar slowly opened his eyes.
"Anna, grandpa is old, and you are the only one left by his side. Grandpa just hopes that you can live happily." Omar said slowly, but the meaning was different.
Anna didn't answer, just lowered her head and stood there silently.
"Hey~~~" Seeing Anna didn't respond, Omar couldn't help but sigh. How could he, who knew Anna's personality, not know what Anna was thinking?
"Grandpa, I won't disturb you anymore. If you're tired, just go to bed early!" Omar shook his head, turned around and walked out the door.
"Grandpa, since you didn't stop my parents at the beginning, then please don't stop me!" Anna suddenly raised her head, the expression on her face was so firm.
Hearing Anna's words, Omar trembled all over. After letting out a sigh, Omar walked out of the room and closed the door. After that, he stood there with a look of pain in his eyes.
After a long time, Omar turned around and left, but she said as if talking to herself: "I understand what you mean, it's better to go back! Let Anna be alone!"
Soon after, Omar's figure disappeared at the end of the corridor.
At this time, on the other side of the corridor, Snow came out of the darkness and looked at Anna's door with a hesitant look on his face. However, looking at the direction where Omar disappeared, Snow still gritted his teeth.
Turned around and left.
