The storm clouds gathered into a terrifying vortex, and the whirlwind once again ravaged the whirlpool, and everything in the depths of the earth was shaking.
This means that Twisted Shadow has begun a new offensive.
As expected, this time it will last long enough until the whirlpool is breached or Lu Li and others are rescued.
Lu Li maintained the dreams of the exorcists again and again, making them familiar with the attacks and weaknesses of the Whirlpool Man.
Their instinct is to continue with the status quo and wait for the final result to appear. At the same time, they imagine that the twisted secret group can directly break through the whirlpool, leaving their simulation with no chance of realization.
But Elena could hardly hold on any longer.
If the Whirlpool Land is regarded as a living thing, it suffered a stress response after being invaded - the pollution of the Whirlpool Land deepened, and Elena had been trying to avoid it, and the almost stagnant curls grew again.
They didn't know what would happen if it curled up, and they couldn't let Elena continue to be deformed, otherwise the rescue mission would be meaningless.
It's time for them to take action.
Elson and Lille will stay here. Someone needs to stay on the outside to deliver news and observe the outside.
The others followed Lu Li and Elena as they left the house and headed towards the spiral tower.
The stress response in the land of whirlpool is not all bad. The wind and sand are even more violent in the narrow streets. The whirlpool people have difficulty maintaining balance and movement, so they can only hide in the long house.
This reduces the chance of them being discovered on the street. The later they are discovered, the more likely they are to reach the tower.
Gradually from the outer layer to the inner layer, the clockwise whirlwind blew through the narrow streets. They had to have several people dragging Elena and someone to shield her from the wind, so that she would not be swept away by the strong wind or become entangled in a cat's legs.
The yarn is pulled away in circles.
Langer squinted his eyes and stared at the sky, thinking divergently about whether swirling clouds were formed because of this, and then rejected it himself.
The swirling clouds also rotate clockwise.
This tense relaxation lasted until the seventh round of Potter's count when they were crossing a shack without walls. The neighbor spotted them from the window and rushed out muttering something.
Elena popped out the tentacles to bind and entangle the Uzumaki Man who was still six or seven meters away, and then the exorcist who rushed over swiftly and silently stabbed the dagger into the Uzumaki Man's head and eyes.
The whirlpool man no longer maintained his curl due to his death. They threw the whirlpool man into the house like dragging a ship's rope, closed the door and continued moving forward.
They were discovered several times with similar success. Because of Elena's help, they defeated the Whirlpool Man faster.
Of course, the Uzumaki people are also upright enough to rush out immediately after discovering them instead of hiding.
The closer they got to the deeper levels, the fewer they encountered the vortex people. The Ember Zone and the Twisted Order attracted most of the vortex people and guards, allowing them to walk through the empty town that stirred up wind and sand.
It was still easy to deal with the vortex people with more circles. They were tied up by Elena before they had time to react, and then dozens of holes were poked out by the exorcists because their weaknesses were difficult to find.
The vortex people are obviously not suitable for fighting. Their whirlpools are like human hair that is genetically inherited, useless and meaningless.
The spiral tower standing in the dark and windy sand gradually became clear. It was not as tall as expected, but the relatively slender tower body caused a visual illusion, but it still made people feel incredible: the spiral tower that supports the height of the three lighthouses is made of wooden structure
It is unimaginable that it can stand firm in the strong wind, or even shake.
Howling winds raged through the streets, blurring their outlines and covering their traces.
The sobs that echoed through the cracks in the empty house suddenly disappeared as the door opened, and the uninvited guest, carried by the wind, broke into the room.
Finally, Lanna pushed open the door that screamed.
The sobs echoed in the empty room again.
They have reached the depths of the Whirlpool Land, and there are only the last ten laps left before the Whirlpool Tower.
Porter moved closer to the window, observing the blurred shadows of the towers deep in the storm.
"They actually don't protect the core."
The journey was so smooth that it was doubtful that except for the strong wind, there was no food in their way.
"We should be grateful for this." Potter looked at Lu Li and waited for the new arrangement.
"Ten minutes' rest and departure."
Lu Li swept past his companion who was taking out the water bag and can, and came to Elena's side.
The situation was not optimistic. After walking for about twenty minutes, her body increased by nearly half a circle. Fortunately, after falling into a dream for a short time, I learned that she was still conscious.
"I can't help on the way back... I can only hope there aren't many guards out there."
With Elena's last words ringing in his ears, Lu Li returned to reality.
"…Climb up or knock it over?"
"We didn't bring pickaxes."
"Then burn it."
"We didn't bring any fuel either."
"Are you worried that the wood won't burn?"
Langer and Elson were talking, and Lanna saw Lu Li and Elena waking up and opened two boxes of cans and handed them to them.
Elena declined the food, and Lu Li took the can and ate it quietly.
It tastes terrible, just smells of salt and preservatives, like eating pickled paper.
"Do you think the wind is getting stronger?"
"Because it's close to the center."
During the casual conversation, the exorcists finished their food and packed their supplies. When 10 minutes were up, Porter opened the door to the strong wind and set off again.
There is no obvious difference between the last ten circles guarded by the Uzumaki and the outer perimeter. The dilapidated longhouses form a more curved arc.
There were no silhouettes of guards or whirlpool people, just the quietness of the wind and sand all around.
When Lu Li silently counted to the fifth circle, an open space engraved with spiral patterns appeared in front of him, leading to the whirlpool tower standing in the center.
People were stunned that the tower appeared in front of them so easily, and then turned into joy, speeding up and moving their legs tilting in the wind. Soon Elena's tentacles popped out again and got into the shack they passed.
The people around waited for Elena to catch the Whirlpool Man, but her straight tentacles suddenly dragged her towards the house.
Langer immediately helped Elena grab the tentacles, and the others followed. They were at a disadvantage in wrestling with the unknown existence in the shack, and were gradually being pulled away.
Lu Li pulled out his dagger and cut off the stretched tentacles.
The broken tentacles retracted, and Elena, whose body was reduced by a quarter, screamed in pain and was blown away by the wind, but it also prevented them from being dragged back to the house.
At this moment, a blood-curdling horror scene appeared around the wind-swept house: closely connected groups of vortex people appeared strangely and silently.
They turned around and ran without hesitation, and the unstoppable tidal wave of whirlpool people rushed from behind.
"Spider potion! Throw it behind!"
Langer shouted, took out the potion from his stomach bag and threw it behind him.
Others who heard the shout followed suit, and the sound of broken potion bottles was heard one after another. The tide of the Uzumaki Man touched the soaked floor tiles, and then its tentacles floated like weightless, being pulled by the strong wind, forming chaotic sketch lines that blended into the strong wind.
But the endless whirlpool people came from behind.
"Run! Run into the tower! Don't stop!"
They were chased by a group of vortex people and ran wildly, rushing into the tower that blocked the storm.
