“Why are there more and more of these things!!!”
In the dead and silent land of chaotic spirits, a tragic scream suddenly sounded.
"I...how do I know? If I tell you not to be so loud, won't this attract more people?"
"Is there a difference?"
"It seems...no."
The little fox and I were running in the silent wilderness, looking back from time to time. Less than a kilometer away from us, there was a vast expanse of white, like a thick mist rising slowly from the horizon.
However, if this were the case, the little fox and I would not have to run away. These mists are all ghost monsters in the land of chaotic spirits. With a cursory glance, you can see layers of dusk souls and demon spirits, following them. Behind us, it seems to never tire of chasing us.
The number of these twilight souls and demon spirits is so huge that they form a sea of mist. From a distance, it looks like a beautiful mist has arisen in the land of chaotic spirits.
However, these ghosts that turned into water mist walked silently, and they did not like to make strange screams and roars like other hell monsters. More than five figures of ghost monsters gathered together, but they did not make any sound at all, if we hadn't looked back from time to time. , didn’t even know they had gathered so many and were chasing so close.
This matter has to start with when we met the first batch of twilight souls... Well, I won't go into details. Anyway, we just killed one batch after another, and finally were submerged by the vast ocean of people, and almost turned into lightning. Roasted chicken.
The most important point is that we don’t know whether the master of the area here is also mixed in the army of ghosts behind him. Ghosts are a very special kind of existence. They are very good at hiding their aura, and it is more difficult to identify which one is there than other monsters. He is the leader. If the number is only tens or hundreds, it would be fine. It is not difficult to find a needle in the water tank, but with this white mist-like ghost army, it is like finding a needle in a haystack.
Therefore, the little fox and I didn't dare to be careless. Seeing that the situation was not going well, we had already learned the trick of being a coward. We ran away without saying a word, regardless of whether the regional master was inside or not. I won't play with you, Ni Zoukai!
"How about we return to the border? I guess they don't dare to cross the border easily and catch up." I saw ghosts everywhere, emerging from the ground, from the sky, or out of thin air, joining the ones behind like moths flying into the flames. In the ocean of mist, the mist became thicker and thicker, and the oppression radiated became stronger and stronger. I looked at the little fox, afraid that she wouldn't be able to hold on.
"This is a helpless last resort. Even if we return to the borderland to avoid their pursuit, these ghosts know that we want to enter their territory and will definitely be on guard. When the time comes, we want to sneak in and look for ice under their noses. Marks, but it will be troublesome."
The little fox frowned beautifully, and had no other options for a while. Monsters like ghosts are particularly difficult to deal with, not to mention that the entire land of chaotic spirits is almost full of ghosts. When it comes to being elusive, even assassins will be defeated in front of them. , There is no way, this is a racial advantage, just like Uncle Hei will automatically get the dodge +10 effect when fighting in the dark.
"I just don't understand. There are ghosts and monsters everywhere in the sky and on the ground. Why did you say you didn't encounter them when you first came here? And you patted your chest to assure me that it was safe here."
"I can't say that I haven't encountered them. It's just that the density of monsters is the same as in ordinary areas, and a group of them will come every once in a while." Thinking of the nonsense I had said in front of the little fox before, I defended myself with some embarrassment.
"How long is the interval you are talking about? One minute? Half a minute? Ten seconds?"
"It's not that exaggerated. I don't know what's going on."
Is there really something wrong with my memory? When I came here with Twin Tails, I really didn't encounter so many ghosts.
"Yawn!" Twin Tails, who was wandering around the hell world with Galen, suddenly sneezed. He elegantly took out a white handkerchief and wiped the cat's nose, waving his cane lightly.
"I really want to see what kind of interesting expression your good student will show when he sees me again."
"Don't rely on your old age. Maybe in ten or eight years, he will be able to pull out your other tail." Although Galen was unhappy with his stupid student, he was even more unhappy with the arrogant two feet in front of him. cat.
"Can we not mention this?" As soon as he mentioned his tail, Twin Tails shuddered. He could no longer maintain his gentlemanly demeanor. The shadow of his soul after Belial pulled out one of his tails would probably never happen in his life. The method is forgotten.
"Besides, why did he pull out my tail for no reason? Do you know how hard it was for me to secretly protect him last time? There is hard work without credit, right? If I hadn't often sneaked away when he was sleeping He went out to negotiate with several regional lords he knew. He had been swallowed up by this land long ago. That stupid boy really thought that it was so easy to break into the hell world. I hope he comes this time instead of the last time. You must take your impression as the benchmark, otherwise you will definitely suffer a big loss.”
"Isn't it your fault for being overprotective?"
"You think I am willing? I just see him... I see him as very stupid, so I have to protect him with more strength." Shuangwei retorted, pressing down the brim of his black tall hat and hiding his expression in the shadows. .
It didn't dare to say that this was Belial's order, and it would be fine if it got mixed up with Gallon, but if it betrayed Belial's conspiracy to others, it would be doomed. Speaking of which, Belial didn't kill anyone at that time. Shuangwei already felt very strange and felt very lucky to have silenced him and saved his life as a cat. How could he dare to seek death again.
…
"How's it going? Can you still hold on? Otherwise, we'd better go back to the borderland. These ghosts are gathering more and more, and if this continues, even I won't be able to bear it anymore."
After running for an unknown amount of time, the army of ghosts behind us not only did not stop, but came from all directions, gathering more and more. Even with the speed of the little fox and I, we were unable to completely get rid of them. It should be said that as long as we are still among the chaotic spirits, It is impossible to get rid of these ghosts.
At this time, we can be sure that there is a leader in this group of ghost army who is leading and controlling. Even if he is not the master of the area here, he is still a deputy level existence.
As an assassin, the little fox's physical strength has always been her weakness. No, she is already starting to feel a little out of breath.
"It only consumes a little bit of physical strength, at most one percent. This Tianhu is not as weak as you think." The little fox rolled his eyes at me and said unconvinced.
"Yes, yes, but these ghosts can obviously chase down the remaining ninety-nine percent of your physical strength, can't they?"
"How about we call that luminous body out and let her recognize these ghosts as relatives or friends, maybe we can save the day?"
At this time, the little fox was still thinking of joking, and did not forget to trick his old rival. He seemed to be doing it with ease.
As a result, with a PIA sound, a light elf who looked like a little ghost emerged from the necklace, lay down on the little fox's face unexpectedly, and bit hard on the tip of the nose. The painful little fox shed tears and He tore off the light elf and threw it at the ghost army behind him, making his seven holes smoke.
"This luminous body... even the little goblin it created has this virtue. It bites people very painfully. Oooh, my nose must have been bitten and bleeding."
"No bleeding, no pain, little fox, be good and let me give you a blow." With an army of 100,000 ghosts chasing behind us, such a show was being staged here, and it was painful to watch.
"I don't want you to be hypocritical. You raise such a luminous ghost just to piss off the fox, right?" The little fox didn't appreciate it, and instead blamed me for the little ghost's crime.
"Speak more rationally, you slutty fox. It's obvious that I got to know Xiaofan first. If I want to be angry, I should be angry with Xiaofan. It's just me messing around with women outside. Why did you find such a slutty fox to make me angry?" .”
Before I could say anything, the little ghost was already shouting angrily in the necklace.
"What you said is completely wrong. This kind of thing has nothing to do with how long we have known each other. Otherwise, according to your statement, wouldn't this idiot have to carry the first bed he slept on when he was born to save the world?"
"What do you mean? Beds are dead objects. How can we compare them? Don't confuse the concepts."
"Ghosts are dead things too."
"Nonsense, although this saint is dead, she is still alive. This saint died in order to live a better life and to meet Xiaofan. How can such a fetter like you, a flirtatious fox like you, love each other? You might understand."
"Who... who is a frivolous person? Tianhu has been infatuated and loyal throughout the generations. Could it be that you, a ghost, have lived for too long and are too old to have forgotten everything in your mind?"
"This ghost has lived for ten thousand years and only likes one person. How about you, who have loved one for a thousand years and you still dare to say that you are not a flirtatious person?!"
"You are obviously changing your concept. Those are the ancestors of the Sky Fox in the past generations, not me. In this life, no, even if there is an afterlife, I will only love this bad guy!"
The little fox's quarrel skills are far inferior to that of the little ghost, but he has a character that refuses to admit defeat. Not only has he started to get angry and talk indiscriminately.
"Puff, puff, okay, I admit that you are a loyal and loyal fox." Faced with the little fox's anger, the little ghost gave me a cotton punch at the critical moment, and then turned around to claim credit from me.
"Xiaofan Xiaofan, look, I asked this arrogant and tough-tongued fox to woo you and show his loyalty. How do you want to thank me?"
"There are many rewards, it must be given." I looked serious, saying that for this great contribution, I must be promoted and make a fortune.
"You... you..." Facing the tacit partnership between me and the little ghost for many years, the little fox was so angry that he could not speak.
Oops, I was so busy enjoying the bickering between the two saints that I forgot to look back at the enemy.
"Huh?" My footsteps suddenly stopped.
"What are you doing? Do you want to die?" The little fox ignored his anger and quickly tried his best to pull me away.
"No, look back, those ghosts... are gone?" Even I couldn't believe my eyes, and there was a strong doubt in my words.
"What?" The little fox turned around, right? The thick fog chasing us disappeared for some reason while she was bickering with the little ghost.
"Could they be playing some little conspiracy, for example, breaking them into pieces and then quietly surrounding us." Shengyue Xianlang frowned, realizing that things were not simple.
"I think so. Let's leave here quickly and find another way to find traces of Duriel." The little fox was also full of uneasiness.
"Yeah, traces of Duriel?" I was in a daze. First, I was chased by an army of ghosts for a long time, and then there was a wonderful bickering between the little fox and the little ghost. It was a rare opportunity for me, who was always lying on the gun, to benefit from the fisherman's advantage. I had a little brain. I was so dizzy that I actually forgot the purpose of our coming to the Land of Chaos Spirits.
At this reminder from the little fox, I subconsciously swept my mental energy around and suddenly froze.
Wrong...can't be wrong, absolutely can't be wrong, it's this aura!
My eyes widened, and suddenly I took the little fox's hand, raised it high and cheered.
"You idiot, are you stupid? What on earth do you want to do...could it be that you...have found the aura of Duriel?" My sudden move made the little fox unable to react for a moment, but she soon guessed it correctly.
"Yes, it's not far away. I can feel it. It's absolutely unmistakable. This breath is purer than my eternal freezing power!"
I was so excited that I was a little incoherent. Not only did I have the hope of finding the Holy See Mountain, but I was also filled with nostalgia. I also remembered what the little ghost had told me about the speculation about Duriel's identity. So now, I actually had a very suicidal thought. Thoughts - I want to see Duriel.
"Right here, the permafrost atmosphere is getting stronger and stronger. Look, it's really still there!"
Finally, following the breath, we found the ice mark, one meter wide, lying quietly on the desolate field. It was like a snail's trace. It was not very eye-catching, but it exuded the residual feeling of the owner. The power is terrifying.
It was this ice mark. The Demon Moon Wolf Witch followed this ice mark all the way westward, like a pilgrimage. Finally, stimulated by the remaining frozen breath of the ice mark, he finally completed the world power level change of werewolf transformation—— Holy Moon Wise Wolf.
At the same time, it also means that another huge crack in the bottle of moral integrity has appeared, although the smell of moral integrity can almost no longer be smelled in the bottle.
"No wonder those ghosts suddenly dispersed. They probably noticed the breath of ice marks and didn't dare to catch up."
The little fox stared at the ice mark with a shocked look on her face. This was the first time she had seen the power of the Four Demon Kings. She just walked along and left an ice mark unconsciously under her feet. It had been there for countless years and was still a deterrent to this day. Other monsters didn't dare to get even close.
What kind of power is this? Can the Dark Continent really defeat such an existence? The little fox was a little shaken, but quickly shook his head to get rid of these negative thoughts.
"Find the ice marks. Then just follow the ice marks and you will find the Holy See Mountain, right? And because of the existence of the ice marks, monsters will not dare to come close. Maybe we are already very close to the end of this journey. It’s the end.”
