Is the executor.
He walked out of the dirty light and emerged like passing through a waterfall, exposed to everyone's surprised eyes. When his lifeless eyes looked over, only Ji Xun reacted the fastest: he gently pressed his hand on Xiaomi, letting his palm stick to the killer's back like glue, and then Then lift it whole to the executor. Suddenly, he had a fluffy cat shield.
Xiaomi roared angrily. Almost at the same time, Qiaoqiao Tianyi shouted angrily: "Hey! You said you didn't want to kill it!"
"This is a matter of priority." Ji Xun said lightly and calmly.
For a few seconds they stood in a stalemate, waiting for one of them to burn and disappear without warning. But strangely, this didn't happen. The monster looked at them, or one of them. It was difficult to tell from those empty eyes where his attention was.
"What happened to this thing?" Qiaoqiao Tianyi asked quietly, "How could he break in suddenly? What does he want to do now?"
No one can answer. Both Yaleriga and Ji Xun seemed to be very surprised by this unexpected situation. They not only stared at the intruder who exuded an ominous aura, but also stared at the filth behind him. Between the death waterfall and the safe area, the looming rainbow light is still shining.
Perhaps the same problem bothered them, so they both said, almost at the same time, "This can't be possible."
"This happened!" Qiaoqiao Tianyi said ruthlessly. She nervously wrapped one of her wings around herself, and blocked the other in front of Yaleriga. This was of course a desperate and futile attempt, but they seemed to have no better solution. There is no targeted strategy. They could only stand there staring at the terrible thing, their chests and eyes as still as a sculpture, while a black shadow shrank under their feet. The thing made no sound at all, no emotion or change, but the black clothes under his feet and the coat on his body seemed to be alive, all twisted and trembling, so that it was almost impossible to see the details clearly.
They were in a stalemate for a few more seconds, which could be said to be a luxuriously long reaction time under the circumstances. There are hundreds of thoughts running through every head (or every thread in the brain) and at least dozens of countermeasures. But this was an emergency that had never been conceived, and nothing could help, no secret weapon against something they didn't understand yet, be it graphic filter glasses, magnets, or whatever they had at the moment. Accessible equipment. In these few seconds, Yaleriga also noticed that Bodi on the other side was moving slowly. Maybe he wanted to do something to that thing, or maybe he just wanted to go around and cover the unconscious Jules. In those few seconds, Yaleriga couldn't tell. She just made a very inconspicuous gesture to stop him with her hand on her waist. Bodie noticed and did as he was told. Yaleriga thought this was more or less a good performance, and she hoped it was worth it - to devote such precious seconds to looking after someone who had betrayed her.
She should think of something. But after a few seconds she couldn't think of anything. She had never seen anything like that in front of her in her memory, a completely unfamiliar magic eye. She thought of the information she had read about the magic eye when she was investigating Xiaomi, and what she saw in front of her might be the weapon called the "Visual Eye" by the mage - the most difficult type of magic eye to deal with, and Unfortunately, it is also extremely fatal in terms of specific functions. But Shadow had no clue. There are so many legends about shadows, and it's entirely possible that they are something else that looks like a shadow. Or worse, a new invention of the wishing machine. She has read many cases that show how difficult these types of disasters are to destroy.
"Any suggestions?" Qiaoqiao Tianyi asked. From her stiff voice, Yaleriga knew that she didn't either.
Ji Xun said nothing. He remained crouched on the ground, almost completely hidden by the cat's shield. Qiaoqiao Tianyi glared at him angrily, but didn't want to do anything that might attract attention at this moment. She stared at the thing for a while longer.
"Am I overthinking it," she asked hesitantly, "or is that thing really uncomfortable?"
"I couldn't read his expression."
"Oh, of course, I can't tell either. But... doesn't it look like the shadow under his feet is trembling? It wasn't like this when he appeared before. I feel... well... I feel like he seems to be enduring something. pain……"
Her questioning sparked another line of thought. They all turned their attention from the dangerous eyes to the thing's soles. The shadow was trembling, like a warning before some kind of attack, or a tremor of suppressed rage - it was easy for a wary person to judge this. But when Qiaoqiao Tianyi put forward a new hypothesis, it seemed that all this might have a completely different meaning. Although the shadow's body is as dead and stiff as a wooden statue, the atmosphere surrounding it is so manic and desperate. The shadow was screaming for him, screaming and wailing for him. Once they realize this, they can almost hear the soul-piercing pain in those silent tremors. Suddenly, Yaleriga understood this.
"He shouldn't have come to us," she said.
"What?"
Yaleriga pondered her thoughts. She said: "He hasn't gotten rid of his last opponent... but he wants to come to us first... or one of us. He is very urgent, but it costs him a lot."
This hopeful conjecture made them look into the thing's eyes together again. Yes, more than ten seconds have passed since that thing appeared, enough for those deadly eyes to kill them all, killing everyone ten times, even Cat Shield was not immune. And then the answer was finally revealed on its own initiative. On the reptile's head, bright red sparks flickered faintly in the two unfathomable caves. That little bit of crimson fire immediately spread and filled his entire eye socket. The inside of those eyes seemed to be filled with red feathers or red catkins, or thousands of layers of worm threads soaked in blood.
The red completely covered the inside of his eyeballs. That may not be completely true, but to the few people standing opposite him, it looked like he was blinded by the finely woven red net. He opened his dry, gray mouth, and all the teeth inside were as sharp as daggers, shining with a poisonous metallic sheen. This time he let out a real scream, nearly ripping the listener's scalp from his skull. He shook his head violently, reacting like a man whose eyeballs had just been ripped off.
"He can't see us!" Qiaoqiao Tianyi shouted in sudden realization. She then realized that she shouldn't have made such a loud noise, but it didn't cause any consequences. They were already talking, and the thing didn't seem to hear anything. His hearing, like his eyesight, was taken away from him when he left his last battlefield. Now a much more harmless enemy appeared before them. Yaleriga realized this was an opportunity. If they could fundamentally address the threat, they wouldn't have to follow Ji Xun's plan - whatever his plan might be.
She didn't have time to figure out what to do. Can that thing be killed? Is there any piece of equipment on her that can achieve such a purpose? She has a scimitar that may have come from a fairy, a visual pattern filtering device, and a few small items purchased from public or private sources, almost always for cats or poisons. She also has a quick-acting paralyzing potion, but it's hard to say what use it will be used for.
The thing started to move. Just like a person who had just lost his sight, its arms were waving wildly in front of it, sliding straight forward. That gesture was a bit funny, but everyone could only dodge in a hurry. Yaleriga and Qiaoqiao Tianyi hid to the right and ran towards Bodi and Zhuer's position. But Ji Xun chose the right side intentionally or unintentionally.
Yaleriga guessed that he wanted to see who the thing was looking for, but now that the thing was invisible, it was hard to tell whether his judgment was in line with his original intention. Anyway, the thing stopped before it hit the edge. He seemed to be able to sense the scope of the safe zone, and after a moment's hesitation, he rushed towards Yaleriga.
"Why is he chasing us!" Qiaoqiao Tianyi shouted, "We didn't do anything to him! Go find the infanticide!"
She and Yaleriga began to flee. As they ran past Bodie, the thing swung its arms so wildly that Bodie had to keep up with their escape. They no longer circled along the edge, but turned towards the golden bell in the center, trying to deceive the blind monster by changing their route. But somehow, the other party was fully aware of their escape route and followed them quickly. In just two breaths, the ends of his grotesque limbs had almost reached Bodi's back. He looked as if he were ready to gut Bodie's chest.
Yaleriga had no choice. She paused, blue flames burned on the scimitar, and then she swung it back suddenly. She didn't think about anything at that moment. She didn't know what the consequences would be if she came into contact with that thing now. Maybe her scimitar would melt, her entire arm would melt, and her whole person might disappear. For that The man holding the cat shield provides a bit of information. But so what? If she allowed Bodie to stab him in the back, the next step would be nothing more than a second earlier and a second later.
Her arms brushed against a layer of cold wet mist, the ominous black smoke that once surrounded the monster. A deafening roar filled her mind. What a sound that is! The thunder is approaching in the spinning red lotus, the giant snake is rolling under the endless deep ice, the corrupt and scorched star corpse sea is pregnant with a weird blue color - ah, he is shouting to tear his soul. A wish! A wish! This must be the wish! That's her -
A hand grabbed her throat and lifted her off the ground.
