When the blood approached, the shadow immediately noticed it, so it adjusted the position of the veins to gather more of them under the blood beads. It also seemed to be able to clearly distinguish that the blood was not a threat to the insect swarm, so it quickly spread out, turning from a fine net into a small black pool, from which dense gray worms poured out, swarming and crawling towards the suspended blood beads. .
The silver wolf waited patiently for the insect swarm to pile up, lifting the blood beads a little more from time to time. Only when the shadow stopped spreading did it suddenly let out a long howl. The strong wind rolled up from the soles of its feet and rushed towards the shadow pool under the insect pile. It should have been an invisible and colorless scene, but Luo Binhan could "see" some kind of barrier gradually taking shape in the wind, spreading outward in a cylindrical shape, squeezing the insect swarm bit by bit.
He unconsciously put his hands on his eyelids and pressed them in gently. There was a stinging pain deep in the eyeball, as if a small, sharp fragment was burning. It is buried deep behind the eye socket, piercing all the way from the optic nerve to the depths of the brain.
But that's just an illusion. he said quietly to himself. There is nothing there.
He endured the foreign body sensation in his eyes and looked outside the fire wall again. The shadow may be forced by the wind pressure, or may be to avoid harming the insect swarm, so it does not change its form, but continues to spread outward. From a small pool as big as a palm, it turned into a narrow channel big enough to accommodate a washbasin.
The accelerating swarm of insects encountered the blood beads, and the wind barrier seemed to be unable to expand even further. At this time, the size of the shadow pool was large enough for an adult to pass vertically. However, the swarm of insects piled up as high as a hill blocked it, making it difficult to imagine what kind of world was on the other side.
Luo Binhan didn't imagine it. He calmly took a step forward, ready to jump out of the wall of fire and squeeze into the shadowy passage leading to an unknown place. He had to do it because the voice was...
Some force pulled him. Luo Binhan turned around and saw Lan Que pulling his arm.
"You are a psycho," it said in a broken voice, "Why do you do this? Why do you let me encounter this kind of thing? Go away and die!"
It began to pull Luo Binhan with all its strength, trying to drag him back from the edge of the wall of fire. This behavior really puzzled Luo Binhan, but the quality of the bone overalls was too light, and Lan Que, who had not used enhancement spells, was not able to compete with him.
With a flick of his arm, he easily got rid of the blue magpie's knuckles and swung it to the opposite side.
"If you don't want to go, you can stay here." He said coldly, "I'll go check the situation on the other side first. If I can't come back, you can just send the signal here."
"This is not the key at all!" Lan Que roared angrily.
Its unknown anger made Luo Binhan even more strange. He stared at Lan Que inexplicably, and then heard the other party say: "I thought you were a reasonable person. I thought you were willing to communicate with the White Tower Master and helped my former mentor awaken me... I thought you It’s not that kind of ancient law! But now it seems that I was completely wrong!”
Luo Binhan couldn't help but stayed for a moment. In a few short seconds, some kind of horror, almost guilt, attacked his brain, giving him a convulsive feeling like an electric shock. But then the fragments deep in his eyeballs penetrated deeper. A voice echoed endlessly inside his head.
"Then you are indeed wrong." He replied without any hesitation, and then jumped out of the fire wall without hesitation and fell into the high pile of insects. The densely packed bugs squeezed his body through the antifreeze suit, and the squirming feeling of a foreign object completely enveloped him. In order to prevent the swarm of insects from immediately eating into his body, he tightly covered the hole in his abdomen with his hands, then swung his feet and sank deeply under the swarm of insects.
Passing through the hollow wind barrier, he dipped into the dark bottom of the shadow. It felt like falling through thick grease into an endless abyss.
The surroundings were vast but empty, and even the concept of time no longer existed, leaving him falling in eternal terror. And this illusion disappeared again. A huge suction force came from above his head, dragging him upwards rapidly, piercing through a tar-like shadow screen, and then he was swallowed up by the swarm of insects again.
Luo Binhan continued to protect his abdomen with one hand, while waving with the other hand, and climbed up from the sea of countless gray worms in embarrassment. Several insects took the opportunity to slip through the gaps between his fingers, lay down on the exposed skin of his abdomen and gnaw, and were immediately crushed to death by him.
He began to jump up and kick his legs constantly, relying on the trampled insect swarm as a foothold while looking up to observe the surrounding situation.
The environment of this insect sea is dark, but it is not really dark. The top of this huge ice abyss is facing the starry sky, and little gleams of light are faintly discernible. The insects gathered at the bottom of the abyss, like a gray-black river gurgling down from a vast convex rock above.
On the top of the ice rock that was more than ten meters higher than the abyss, lying quietly was a spaceship as dark as night. It has cold and beautiful contours, complex but exquisite external components, and two wings that are slightly tucked inward.
This extremely familiar spaceship fell into Luo Binhan's eyes at the bottom of the abyss, like a swallow perched in the shadow.
Swarms of insects snaked down from the belly of the black swallow.
Luo Binhan is already very familiar with the general structure of the Silence. He knew the location of the hatch that allowed the crew to land, and that opening usually required Yaleriga to enter some kind of authentication code. But at this time, the door was open as if it was damaged, allowing the insects to pass through freely. In the gap between the gray tide, there was a faint dark green light.
A clear voice came from the light, calling Luo Binhan to walk through the door. At this moment he was finally convinced that that was the reason why he came here.
Several waves suddenly appeared in the sea of insects, and then a pale skeleton emerged from it.
"Phew! It seems these bugs don't eat bionic materials. How about it? You damn idiot? Now let's see who begged whom!"
The blue magpie floated a few meters above the sea of insects and looked at Luo Binhan with an imposing manner, who was still jumping to avoid it. It seemed to be preparing to give a victory speech, but soon found that Luo Binhan ignored it at all.
"What are you looking at... is that a spaceship?"
It followed Luo Binhan's line of sight and looked at Bingyan, and let out an exclamation. At this time, there was another commotion in the insect sea. A whirlwind swept away all the bugs, and then the silver wolf jumped out from the bottom. It rushed straight up to a slightly higher platform and hid on it to rest while dying. It didn't even have the energy to say a word to the other two.
Lan Que no longer paid attention to the black ship, but fell back to Luo Binhan's side. It put its arm around Luo Binhan's shoulder and said, "What are you so stupid about? Those bugs have already started to bite your clothes. Climb up quickly! I can only help you reduce some weight. Don't expect me to fly with you." stand up!"
Luo Binhan gently shook it off, his eyes still staring at the bug ship that was exactly the same as the Silence.
"You fly up and ask for help first," he said.
The blue magpie floated up a little in surprise. It almost flew away, but then it couldn't help but ask: "Now you don't care that I ran away alone? What are you thinking in your mind?"
Luo Binhan ignored it. The existence of Blue Magpie was no longer important, so he quickly forgot about the other party and concentrated on approaching the ice rock. He tore away the insect biting his stomach and began to climb the steep cold rock. Several times he almost fell into the sea of insects, but his body instinctively taught him how to avoid danger.
The call in the black swallow's belly became louder and louder.
