Intermittently, a hazy pale white mist hung between the sky and the earth, blurring out areas of vision. Large clumps of white cotton seemed to be floating in the air, and occasionally strands were torn out by the airflow, floating among the crowd.
between; there is fog everywhere,
Even the companions around him were obscured and sometimes disappeared.
Traveling through the moist and silent mist, everyone was careful to keep quiet; on the wild grass, only Lin Sanjiu's faint calls could be heard from behind: "Where are you? I can't see you... I accidentally
I twisted my foot..."
Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but look back, her eyes seemed to have been swallowed up by the melting white mist, and she couldn't see the depth of the mist.
"I'm here," even though she knew it wasn't necessary,
But he still couldn't help but whisper: "That's not me,
I'm dragging Yuan Xiangxi with me."
"Is anyone looking back for you?" the puppet master sneered darkly. He was probably the most recognizable person in the white mist; even the mist seemed unable to resist it.
It was suppressed by that pitch-black shadow and dispersed.
"I think you can loosen your consciousness," Yuan Xiangxi said reluctantly, "I can't run away..."
"Xiaojiu," Yu Yuan's voice sounded distantly from behind the crowd, "Did you twist your foot? Don't move. I'll go over now..."
Lin Sanjiu raised his eyes. A few steps ahead, Yu Yuan was supporting Qing Jiuliu as he walked forward step by step. When he heard his own voice coming from behind, he couldn't help but look back.
"The source of the sound has always been the same place, it has not changed." Yu Yuan said thoughtfully.
After they climbed onto the ground from the cement corridor,
He pressed the cement board back immediately; it was just a cement board, but it blocked all the replica creatures in place - the only one that caught up through the gap was their own voice.
"Probably due to the influence of dungeon rules, dungeon creatures can't come out?" Yuan Xiangxi guessed,
"So they're doing everything they can to lure us back."
All of Qingjiuru's willpower was put into confronting the dungeon; he had no time to be distracted by searching for the crystal coffin where the great shrine maiden was.
Hearing this, he just shook his head: "I only know that employees can come to this wild grass.
But I don’t know the replica creature... Well, let’s go over there and take a look.”
There are many crystal coffins scattered on the grass, and even Qingjiu Liu is not sure what they are used for - he once saw an dungeon employee transfer an evolution that was near death and comatose after being in danger in the dungeon.
The deceased was put into a crystal coffin to maintain the latter's vital signs; so inspired Qingjiu Liu stuffed the great miko into it as well.
"Many of them are empty, and some have been stuffed with a lot of debris."
In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, Qingjiuru did not open the coffin rashly, but leaned down and looked at the black shadow inside through the translucent crystal plate, and said: "I suspect this has something to do with the dungeon trying to increase the number of human employees.
, but I don’t know its specific plan.”
Everyone gathered in a circle around the crystal coffin, and after discovering what seemed to be a sleeping maned dog inside, they dispersed and continued to search for the great witch in the next crystal coffin - only the puppet master seemed to feel that he was bent.
It was very humiliating for him to look at them one by one, so he just lowered his eyelids as he walked past the crystal coffin.
"Oops, I remember that there is a copy of the creature that can transform. Maybe it has turned into one of us.
He's sneaking in..." The voice in the distance rang again without giving up, this time it was Qing Jiuliu's voice.
"Don't worry about it," Yu Yuan whispered to Qingjiu Liu, "just continue to remember where the great witch is."
Turning a deaf ear to the insistent calls in the distance, everyone searched silently and intently among the dotted crystal halls for a while. The first person to find the great witch was unexpected, but also seemed to be reasonable. She was exactly
Pina has always been good at observation.
She suddenly straightened up from the side of a crystal pavilion and took a small breath - the sound of gasping immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Is she a woman with a well-proportioned figure?" She only heard the second-hand description of her master's appearance, so she was not sure, "There seems to be one here, sleeping in a blanket..."
At that moment, no one had time to react - a surge of consciousness suddenly surged out like a rapid tide, rushing through the grass, scattering the white mist, and hit the crystal coffin hard.
Immediately, the lid flew into the air, causing Pina to let out a low cry of surprise and quickly stepped back to avoid the falling crystal lid.
It seemed that even the puppet master was surprised.
When the crystal cover smashed into the grass with a muffled sound, stirring up a blade of dirt and grass, everyone hurried up and cast their gaze towards the crystal pavilion.
Everyone, even the puppet master who resided in the mind of the great miko, did not make a sound for several seconds.
This was the first time that Lin Sanjiu truly saw the great witch in many years after their separation.
Compared with the last time I saw her, the great witch had lost a lot of weight. At first glance, she almost looked like a young girl; she was lying sideways on the pillow in the Crystal Pavilion, and the half of her exposed face was peaceful, as if she was sleeping on a light pink bed.
In her dream, the long blond hair that almost touched her thighs spread out gently and spread over her body like waves, like a rich and soft bed quilt embracing the great witch.
Not only did her hair grow longer and her makeup disappear, she also changed into a plain white dress, probably because it was more convenient to change into. The two feet sticking out from under the cotton skirt had curved arches and thin insteps.
It was like a pair of arched bridges formed by pale white crescent moons. In Lin Sanjiu's impression, she had never seen such a frail, weak, relaxed and peaceful great witch.
Pina stared at the great witch in the coffin without blinking, as if the latter had a thousand colors, details and lustres, and her eyes needed to linger repeatedly to imprint a small part of the beauty in her mind.
"She...she is the great witch?" she asked in a low voice, somewhat dazed.
"Yes," just one word made Lin Sanjiu's voice crack.
She took a deep breath and suppressed the turbulent emotions in her chest. It was at the expense of the Great Miko that she was able to keep herself safe. If she didn't restore the Great Miko to her original state, she would never be able to feel at ease; no matter how late she was,
It took so many years, but she finally fulfilled her promise - for a moment she just wanted to bury her head and shed a good tear.
Although Yu Yuan had never gotten along with a great witch, he was a little moved at this moment and asked in a low voice: "How to wake her up?"
Only then did Lin Sanjiu realize a problem.
They have to escape from the dungeon before they can pick up the great witch; but when they pick up the great witch, it also means that they are no longer isolated from the world by the dungeon - that is to say, she can't call the old woman here and activate
[Concept Collision], let the spirit of the great miko return to the body.
"Let's take her away quickly," Lin Sanjiu said, reaching out to help the great witch up from the crystal hall. She was still immersed in the longest dream in the world, her breathing was steady, and her face was peaceful; as Lin Sanjiu
As she drank, the great witch softly leaned her head on her shoulder. "After we go out, there must be other places where we can activate [Concept Collision], there are so many copies."
Qingjiuru watched her carry the great miko on her back and exhaled a long breath.
He was alone as a comatose person, and had spent all these years in countless hardships; now seeing the great witch awakening and forgetting, it seemed that somewhere in his soul was finally relaxed, loose, and finally transparent.
A long wind blew in.
"She said, thank you." The puppet master said gloomily.
Everyone can see that he just managed to convey the great witch's gratitude in two words, which has already made him very embarrassed and unhappy - no one knows how many words the great witch spent before she finally persuaded him.
, making him willing to spit out these two words.
"Let's go," Lin Sanjiu used her consciousness to carry the great witch's body firmly on her back, as if the latter's weight could suppress all the uneasiness, guilt and anxiety over the years and make them disappear. She could do it herself.
She could feel that she couldn't help but keep smiling on her face. "Where are we going now——"
"Be careful!" Pina suddenly shouted, surprising everyone - "There is something on the ground! It seems... it seems to be a duplicate creature?"
Lin Sanjiu lowered his head and understood what she was warning about. The winding thick black hair was like countless strips of black rice noodles, hidden in the wild grass; covered by the white mist, they were silent.
The earth covered a vast area.
In the distance, behind the crystal coffin they had just inspected, a shadow that was folded in half suddenly flashed past. It was unclear whether it was bent over or bent over; it was on all fours and quickly flashed towards another coffin.
Finally, he took a few steps closer to everyone, as if he still thought he hadn't been discovered, and couldn't help but chuckle.
"Could it be that it was just to make us relax our vigilance?" Yuan Xiangxi responded quickly, "So before we knew it -"
"What are you still analyzing?" Lin Sanjiu interrupted him by pulling him, "Why don't you run away quickly?"
"Over there," Qingjiuru also called out, pointing to the distance and shouting: "As long as you run out of this white fog, you will return to the barren grassland you saw when you landed. You came here in a spaceship.
Are you there? Is there anyone on the spaceship to help you?"
There was no time to explain that they were hung on the aircraft like a basket of piglets and hoisted all the way over - Lin Sanjiu hurriedly said "no one is coming" and rushed out first, dragging Yuan Xiangxi.
, shouted: "Everyone, leave quickly, we will think of a solution after we get out!"
The group of people are almost all top-notch evolvers, and when they go all out, their speed is naturally astonishing. Qingjiuru and the great miko separated from each other, such a long and lonely part of their lives, and in just ten seconds, they were in the dungeon.
The wild grass outside ushered in a break.
The puppet master's aircraft was already covered in darkness in the sky, suppressing the wind above everyone.
