Yin Tenglixiang, Yin Fulin, Dinah, and the Snow Wolf God...
They're all gone?
Qiu Gongyue was very surprised. Forget about her best friend. In addition, Yin Fulin and Dinah had obtained the power inherited from assassins. Even if they were ambushed due to their inexperience, they still had the Snow Wolf God who was on par with her in strength.
How could three people and a dog disappear so suddenly and silently?
Is there something wrong with me?
Qiu Gongyue subconsciously wanted to deny this speculation. She believed that with her own strength, it was impossible for anyone to do anything to her without her noticing.
But what if? Just in case someone can do it.
Or maybe you're dreaming? But now my thinking logic is very clear.
Faced with this strange situation, Qiu Gongyue did not panic, but quickly calmed down and began to check the three people's rooms.
The room for three people was very ordinary, nothing special. There were even signs of being pressed on the bedding, but there was no warmth left on it.
Qiu Gongyue returned to her room to check and found that the pinhole camera was still there, but it had stopped working.
If an ordinary person encountered such a strange situation, it would be safest to stay in the room and not go anywhere.
But Qiu Gongyue wanted to find out the truth. She left the room again and entered the long corridor shrouded in darkness.
There are a large number of oil paintings about the waxing and waning of the moon hanging on both sides of the corridor, and the switch on the wall seems to have cut off the power and cannot turn on the lights.
The entire castle was silent, the darkness was filled with dull mist, and the temperature had dropped to close to freezing.
With Qiu Gongyue's hearing, she didn't hear anything. She suspected that her senses might have been cut off by some invisible force.
The entire castle is very large. It originally had more than 120 rooms. Later, after the expansion by the Moon God believers, the area was expanded nearly ten times, and it has more than 3,000 rooms, which is enough. Thousands of people live here.
Qiu Gongyue walked around for several times without seeing a single living person. If she hadn't seen one just now, she would have almost suspected that she was the only living person left in this place.
After passing through the maze-like corridor, Qiu Gongyue turned into a dark living room.
She had also been here during the day, but unlike the warm and harmonious atmosphere during the day, the place now became eerie and scary. There were a large number of portraits hanging on the walls. She stared intently at Qiu Gongyue who walked in, as if she would come to life at any time. .
Qiu Gongyue walked in and checked around, and found that everything was as new as new, cleaned very clean, and no dust fell at all. There was also a plate of fresh fruit on the table, covered with water droplets.
At this moment, Qiu Gongyue seemed to feel something, and suddenly looked back and saw a shaky figure walking past outside the door of the living room.
She rushed out immediately and saw a woman with disheveled hair walking staggeringly in the corridor.
Qiu Gongyue thought it was the woman she saw at first, but after careful observation, she found something was wrong. This was another person.
She did not alert the other party, but quietly followed her to see where this woman was going.
After following her for a while, Qiu Gongyue discovered that this woman had been wandering around aimlessly with no definite destination.
She had no choice but to take a few steps forward and said, "Wait a minute."
Hearing the sound, the woman stopped, then slowly turned back, revealing a face under messy hair.
This is a young woman in her twenties, with a pale face, an extremely haggard and distorted expression, her eyes almost bulging out of their sockets, and the whites of her eyes are blood red, like a female ghost crawling out of a horror movie.
Qiu Gongyue was not frightened, but recognized her immediately. She had seen this woman in the cafeteria today. She sat aside and watched the four of Qiu Gongyue. She was a friendly and smiling girl, but she really couldn't help it. I believe that he can make such a terrifying expression.
"ah!"
The girl suddenly let out a scream and sprinted towards Qiu Gongyue. The hand hidden in her sleeve was raised high, and she actually held a kitchen knife with a cold light in her hand.
Moreover, her sprinting speed was extremely fast, and an afterimage was instantly produced. This was at least the power of a third-level ability user.
Qiu Gongyue used the murderous wave, but it turned out to be ineffective.
She took a step back, raised her leg and kicked horizontally, hitting the girl who was rushing towards her in the waist.
boom!
The girl's waist was bent, and her whole body was kicked up and hit the wall of the corridor next to her, causing the wall to collapse.
"So hard?"
Qiu Gongyue showed a surprised expression. Her attack could at least seriously injure the opponent and break through several walls in a row, but the effect in front of her was less than one-fifth of what was expected.
Is there something wrong with the environment here? Or has her strength been weakened unknowingly?
The girl pulled herself out of the wall as if nothing was wrong. After landing, she continued to swing the kitchen knife and slashed at Qiu Gongyue.
Qiu Gongyue raised her hand and grabbed her wrist, kicked her knee with his side kick, causing her to kneel on one leg. Then Qiu Gongyue cut her hands behind her back and pushed her to the ground.
"If you can understand what I'm saying, don't struggle anymore, otherwise I won't rule out hurting you."
Qiu Gongyue warned, but the girl seemed not to understand her words, and kept struggling to fight back, making meaningless roars from her mouth.
Kaka!
With two soft sounds, Qiu Gongyue directly removed a pair of her arms.
However, when she let go of her hand, the girl suddenly jumped up from the ground, and her removed arm returned to its original state.
She held the kitchen knife tightly and aimed it at Qiu Gongyue's face.
boom!
The fierce energy spurted out from Qiu Gongyue's body, and the kitchen knife flew away.
The Gang Qi formed several sharp sword Qi, which instantly penetrated the girl's hands, feet, and limbs.
She fell to the ground covered in blood, but still struggled to get up, and the wounds on her body healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Qiu Gongyue's eyes turned cold, and the sharp sword energy swept across the girl's neck. Her head rolled out with a plop, and the wounds on her body that were recovering finally stopped.
Looking at the girl's body that was gradually losing its vitality, Qiu Gongyue frowned and her heart was full of doubts.
What is going on with this place? Weird night, weird environment, and weird people.
She thought about it for a while, but still had no clue, so she walked around the corpse and began to explore the castle.
In the maze-like castle, Qiu Gongyue keeps encountering similar women. They are unable to communicate. If they don't speak, they will wander around. Once they speak, they will immediately launch a crazy attack on Qiu Gongyue. .
And most of these people are women Qiu Gongyue has met during the day.
They are warm and friendly during the day, but turn into such crazy people who can't communicate at night.
This reminds Qiu Gongyue of what Ellie said. She said that the Moon God believers here are crazy. Has she ever encountered such a situation?
For half an hour, Qiu Gongyue couldn't find any useful clues. She could only encounter this kind of madman constantly in the darkness. At the same time, there were things related to the moon everywhere in the castle, including various murals, furnishings, and sculptures. , it’s like being in a moon exhibition hall.
Qiu Gongyue, who couldn't find any clues, could only follow the path she had taken today and came to the gate of the castle, intending to go outside to take a look at the situation.
"stop!"
Just as she was about to open the door to the castle, a voice suddenly sounded from behind.
Qiu Gongyue was not surprised but happy. Every lunatic she met here couldn't communicate at all. Finally, someone who could speak normally appeared.
She looked back and saw two people wearing pointed hats with bulging chests. They should both be women.
The pointed hats only reveal a pair of eyes, and the clothes underneath look like some kind of religious clothing. What they hold in their hands is not a cross, but a crescent-shaped object.
Before Qiu Gongyue could speak, one of the pointed hats asked: "Let me ask you, why is the moon so great?"
Her voice was full of solemnity, as if she were asking for the greatest philosophy.
Qiu Gongyue frowned slightly and asked: "Why do you think the moon is so great?"
The eyes of the two pointed hats suddenly widened, and the whites of their eyes turned blood red at a speed visible to the naked eye. They raised their fingers and pointed at Qiu Gongyue, and said angrily: "Heretic, you are a heretic!"
They took out a sickle shaped like a crescent moon from under their robes and rushed towards Qiu Gongyue.
"Again?"
Qiu Gongyue sighed slightly, isn't there a normal person here?
Two pointed hats had already rushed in front of her, swinging their scythes at her face.
boom!
Gang Qi spurted out from Qiu Gongyue's body, directly deflecting their attacks.
Qiu Gongyue raised her foot and kicked, hitting the waist of the pointed hat on the left side. With a kacha sound, the opponent's waist was directly kicked off and the whole person flew more than ten meters away.
The other one didn't care about the life or death of his companions, and rushed forward again brandishing a sickle.
Her hands were extremely powerful, and she swung the sickle to create a series of afterimages. The speed was so fast that it would definitely kill an ordinary person.
Qiu Gongyue reached out and broke the opponent's wrist, then grabbed the pointed hat's arm and threw her over the shoulder, slamming her to the ground, making a big hole in the floor, and then grabbed the opponent's pointed hat. , pull it apart with force.
Below is the same face I saw during the day, with a ferocious expression, staring at Qiu Gongyue.
Qiu Gongyue picked up the sickle and put it on her neck: "Where is this place?"
"You heretic!"
The girl turned a deaf ear to Qiu Gongyue's words, and instead opened her mouth to bite her.
The other pointed hat, whose lumbar vertebra was kicked off, actually got up from the ground. It was obvious that his broken waist had recovered.
Qiu Gongyue cut the neck of the girl who was yelling with a knife, then flicked her backhand, and the sickle flew over and hit the second person's forehead.
From just now to now, she has killed more than a dozen people in a row, and these people behaved in the same way, crazy and unreasonable, unable to communicate.
Qiu Gongyue dropped the two corpses, raised her hands, and pushed open the castle door.
The pale moonlight immediately shone in. Qiu Gongyue looked up and was slightly startled.
The moon was hanging in the night sky, but it seemed too huge, more than a hundred times bigger than the original moon, as if you could touch it with your hand.
Seeing such a huge moon, Qiugong Yue finally determined that something was wrong with this place.
It is very possible that she was brought here without knowing it.
Qiu Gongyue's feet ejected Gang Qi, and her whole body flew directly into the air.
After the expansion, a very vast castle appeared at her feet, shrouded in a layer of fog, making it difficult to see clearly.
She turned around and flew out, ready to see if this was the case elsewhere.
When she flew to the edge of the heart-shaped island, Qiu Gongyue found that the other side of the river was shrouded in a layer of black mist. She flew across the river and came to the black mist, and suddenly the alarm bell rang in her heart.
Tell her directly that she must not fall into these black fogs, otherwise she will most likely not be able to come back.
After becoming a superpower, Qiu Gongyue has rarely encountered such situations where she intuitively senses danger. The last time she faced the great wizard in Hanoi or when she faced Yue Yue in the Shadow Sect, she had no such dangerous intuition. .
In the black mist, there may be something more dangerous than the great wizard or Yue.
Suddenly, black mist rolled over at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Qiu Gongyue hurriedly retreated, and the black mist seemed to have vitality, chasing after her closely.
The entire island was shrouded in black mist, with nowhere to escape. Qiu Gongyue wanted to leave the sky, but found that the moon had also been obscured by black mist at some point.
She had to return to the castle, and soon the whole world outside became invisible.
The black mist began to penetrate into the castle through the analysis of doors and windows, flooding the living room and corridors.
Qiu Gongyue kept retreating, and finally retreated to her room and closed the door directly.
There was obviously a gap in this door, but the black fog outside did not seep in again, and the sense of crisis that had been lingering in Qiu Gongyue's heart also disappeared as the door closed.
Qiu Gongyue stared closely at the door in front of her, and suddenly realized that this room was probably the key to her coming to this strange place.
In order to verify this, Qiu Gongyue glanced at the clock on the wall. It was half past three in the night, then returned to the bed and lay down, eyes closed, counting silently in her heart.
In the past hour or so, Qiu Gongyue felt the temperature rise.
She opened her eyes and looked up at the clock - six in the morning!
At the same time, various subtle movements were heard outside, including footsteps, exchanges, washing sounds, and many people in the castle were getting up.
Qiu Gongyue realized that she had returned from that weird place.
The pinhole camera hidden in the corner of the room was working. She pretended to get up as if nothing had happened, started washing in the bathroom that came with the room, and then went out.
In the corridor at the door, there are no murals on the walls on both sides, let alone anything about the moon.
Soon after Akimiya got up, Yin Tenglixiang and Yin Fulin also got up one after another. They may not even have slept last night.
"Sisters, morning~~"
Dinah rubbed her eyes. She had been unable to sleep until midnight last night before finally falling asleep.
Qiu Gongyue observed the three of them and found that their expressions were very normal, and they were completely unaware of what happened last night.
