This old proverb about the Hilleweg Mountains, which is rich in products but still hungry for hunters, has been verified in another way.
The land without light is shrouded in darkness, and the silhouettes of forest shadows and hills in the distance are difficult to distinguish, as if it were a moonless night.
Almost nothing could be seen, almost no sound could be heard, and the complete silence brought oppression. Only the broken roads built by the predecessors under his feet guided Lu Li and brought him sound.
This broken path, more than ten miles long, connects the coast to the town of Nice.
Stones lying on the road were occasionally kicked away and rolled far away. Sometimes they were skeletons, slender and dense, similar to fish bones. Lu Li, who was depressed and walked peacefully for about two miles, saw the owner of these fish bones:
Frogman skull without jaw.
The skull is only about the size of a palm, which is much smaller than that of humans. The frog fish man is only about one meter tall. Even if the spine is straightened, it will not be higher than the belly of an adult male.
There are no traces of newness on these bones, and quite a few of them are severely weathered and crumbled into gravel-like ashes when stepped on.
Either the frogmen group has retreated, or there is no longer any need to attack the small town of Nice at the end.
The oil lamp that was close to the broken bones moved away, and Lu Li, who straightened his waist, continued to move forward, guessing it was the former.
Because he didn't smell the stench wafting from the rotting soil.
And there are more powerful monsters or groups entrenched on the broken roads of Nice Town. Lu Li did not encounter any monsters.
Two hours later, the road under our feet was about to reach its end. Luli was very close to the town of Nice.
But Lu Li instead slowed down, took the revealing potion, and prepared for battle.
Because he was not greeted by the flowing cat, nor did he hear the cat's meow.
No matter whether the flowing cat abandons the town of Nice or not...what's entrenched here will become another powerful monster, such as
Lu Li suddenly lost control of his body, jumping like a child towards the silhouette of the dormant town of Nice in the distance, and was forced to laugh like a child.
Lu Li, who was about to start his dream to break free, stopped because he sensed the atmosphere of the ritual from the power that controlled him.
Let the ritual drag the body that became part of the strange scene into the town of Nice, and stopped in front of the fountain in the central square.
Three frogmen were waiting quietly by the fountain. They were in the same situation as Lu Li and were captured by the ritual of the shadow of the little boy standing on the fountain.
Lu Li observed the boy's shadow. He was about eight or nine years old. He had a thin body and was wearing an ill-fitting linen coat. His face was blurry.
It's not an evil spirit, it's a resentful spirit.
"It's my turn to be a ghost! Hurry up and hide, count to one hundred."
The boy's shadow simply recited the rules as if playing a game. As Lu Li and the three frogmen resumed body control, it also turned around and lay on the fountain: "One hundred ninety-nine and ninety-eight"
"Can I ask a question?"
"Ninety-seven, ninety-six, ninety-five"
Lu Li's inquiry received no response, and the countdown continued.
His attention briefly fell on the three numb frog fishmen. They were dry and thin, as if they were about to burn out. Lu Li did not think that they had just been captured by the resentful boy like him.
Maybe they were imprisoned a long time ago, until Lu Li broke into the town to meet the number of people required for the ceremony. Therefore, their bodies and minds became numb and they lost themselves after being imprisoned and controlled for a long time.
"Eighty-three eighty-two eighty-one"
Lu Li did not leave immediately. He walked up to the three frogmen and poured the latent shadow potion into the first one. When it dived into the other world, he touched the second one with his left hand. When it instinctively fled to the depths due to injury and stress, Lu Li did not leave immediately.
He grabbed the third frogman with his right hand and fled with it to the outskirts of Nice Town.
"Seventy-six nineteen sixty-eight"
The shouts of the resentful boy gradually faded away.
Along the way, Lu Li let go of the frogman who was following Numbly and moved forward alone.
"Meow"
As he approached the edge of the town of Nice, a cat's meow caught Lu Li's attention. His dark eyes turned to the place where the sound came from. He saw the shadow of a tabby cat sitting behind a broken window, standing up and walking into the darkness like a guide.
"Thirty-seven thirty-six thirty-five"
Lu Li followed the tabby cat into the house by stepping on the debris, and saw it sitting in front of the wardrobe.
"Twenty-four, twenty-three, twenty-two"
Nodding to the ghost cat, Lu Li replaced the oil lamp with a fluorite block, opened the closet door and hid inside.
"Three, two, one, I'm going to find you!"
The echoing shouts faded away, and the town of Nice returned to silence.
"Found you!"
Then only a few seconds passed, and the boy's childish laughter echoed over the quiet town of Nice, followed by a creepy gnawing sound.
Latent image potions obviously have no effect on wraiths.
In the following minutes, the second and third frogmen were discovered one after another, and shuddering children's voices rang out.
Lu Li is the only hide-and-seek player left.
As time passed, Lu Li remained quiet, waiting for the normal hide-and-seek game that lasted for an unknown amount of time to end until the sudden meowing of a cat broke the silence.
"Meow"
Then silence returned.
Lu Li, who was rising ominously, took out the oil lamp and lit it. Then under the polished dim light, the murloc skeletons piled at the bottom of the wardrobe were fully revealed.
There was also the malicious gaze on the blurry face emerging from the crack of the closet door.
"Found you!"
Lu Li suddenly opened his eyes and woke up from a nightmare.
"Meow"
The tabby cat sitting behind the display window barked urgingly.
Lu Li stared at it, suddenly took out the kettle, poured it on his hands to wash away the smell of the frog-fishmen.
Wow
The clear water washes away the frog-fish human aura.
"Meow……"
The remnant soul of the tabby cat also gradually disappeared.
Not having time to understand the reason, Lu Li noticed that the countdown no longer sounded and continued to move forward, but was blocked by an invisible film outside the town of Nice.
The solidified air became part of the enclosed space, preventing Lu Li from leaving.
The strange and bizarre dream was like seawater soaked in linen, spreading out from behind. Lu Li stretched out his hand forward, and there was no longer any obstacle, and he safely left the ceremony laid by the resentful spirit.
When the broken road beneath his feet turned into dirt, Lu Li stopped and looked back at the shadowy town that was dormant again.
The wraith strangely did not chase him out, and may not even notice his departure.
Putting his dream under control, Lu Li changed into an oil lamp and continued on the road.
The next journey is no longer smooth. The distance from the town of Nice to the town of Vigo is longer and more difficult to walk than the coast to the town of Nice.
Lu Li had to maintain speed in order to reach Vig Town before the strange fog arrived after nightfall.
It was just that it was difficult to move forward and climb in the rolling hills and mountains. What was worse was that the compass was useless. Even if the businessman Anthony came from time to time to guide the direction, Lu Li was almost lost.
Humans have never been suited to living in darkness.
At this time, Lu Li heard a baby crying from the front.
Lu Li avoided the area of the cry and continued to move forward, but soon it sounded again and followed, but gradually became less sharp, like a cat's meow.
