The approaching footsteps echoed in the chaotic sounds behind Duan Qing. The approaching figures belonging to Legend of Lieyan and others also appeared at the back of the passage. Then, with sudden bursts of shaking, they fell crookedly. on the gravel-strewn ground. The wall on one side of the stone passage beside them then decomposed into the same fragments together with the phantom wall that disappeared in front of them, and flew out towards both sides of the passage like dominoes, and the dark and pitch-black space followed. The fragments floating in the air were sucked into everyone's field of vision, and they were intertwined together into a strange scene that had lost all gravity: "This, this is..."
"Wow--"
"Did we go into the universe?"
"Don't make trouble, I am a member of the seven-day space tour group in 2129. The real solar system does not look as dark as it does now..."
The floating fragments that are still spreading into the black area are mixed with the purple-black mist, and they move straight to their respective distances like planetary fragments. The scene that is darker than the real universe is like a movie curtain rising in front of the audience. Slowly and unstoppably, it pressed towards the direction of everyone. Involuntarily making a retreating movement, Lieyan Legend, who was protecting Xiaoyu'er behind him, then suddenly threw out a large golden shield reflection, and then in a dazzling flash of the picture, he escaped from this extremely fantastic picture. came out: "Being, being sucked in? Huh?"
"This is where?"
The still extremely dim stone wall once again enveloped these players, and at the same time echoed in their ears the horrified shouts that the group of people had just made. Lieyan Legend, who smelled the ancient atmosphere, was the first to regain his composure. , recovered from the posture of protecting others: "Is this... an underground passage?"
"We're back?"
"Look at the map."
In the scene where the collision sound and the cry of pain were mixed together, the big shield warrior took out the adventurer's manual at his waist, and then slowly opened his eyes wide as the two teammates behind him helped each other to stand up. Eyes: "...Holy shit."
"We were teleported away." He pointed to the other side of the map that was completely opposite to the south: "This distance... feels like flying, okay?"
"Zakro District? Isn't this in the north of Zaraha City?" Feitian Qixia, who also took out the map, also widened his eyes: "Why did you come to this place without even moving?"
"The problem is that we just knocked down a wall before." Lie Yan Legend hit his forehead with a slight headache: "Although this is the best way to solve the maze, but now it seems that this approach is probably What strange mechanism was triggered..."
"Are you right, Moshang Qingshan?"
He turned around, trying to find the figure of a certain man who should have been teleported as well: "Huh? Where is Mo Shang Qingshan?"
"They should have been teleported away."
At the other end of the underground pipe network thousands of meters away from them, Duan Qing, who gradually emerged from the spread of black, slowly emerged from the newly broken passage. While arranging his slightly embarrassed silver armor, he He waved to Maggie, who was also there not far away: "Those who have not seen the power of the void should not be able to escape from this kind of turbulence..."
"You should have never seen this kind of spatial turbulence." Maggie stared at Duan Qing closely: "When...have you ever entered the void world?"
"...Don't forget my current title. I am still a criminal who destroyed the Temple of the Mage Council in name." A hint of concealment flashed in his eyes, and Duan Qing pointed to his chest half-jokingly: "That world I’ve seen a thing or two about what he looks like.”
"...No wonder you were able to discover such a secret." Maggie, who stared at the other person for a long time, finally shook her head: "But..."
"You don't seem to have told your companions...why is that?"
"For each other, of course."
Duan Qing sighed helplessly, and Duan Qing's voice gradually became deeper: "I have said before that this trip is a trip for us to find the secrets of your past. If we find something ulterior... …The fewer people who know, the better.”
"...I don't need you to be so kind."
As if she had spent a lot of effort to understand Duan Qing's words, Maggie touched the short hair on her temples: "Even if I encounter the worst result... I will accept it."
"That is to say... you also think that your teacher is hiding in the void in front of us?" Duan Qing took out his adventurer map and once again left a deep impression on his location. One stroke: "With those unknown dangers?"
"...Of course." Maggie, who was silent for a moment, raised her head: "It's just..."
"The dangers involved are definitely not as small as those in the real world."
【Ding--】
[…Achieved, triggering the mission: Maggie’s past, do you accept it? 】
You should give me something to accept...
The sudden surge of pride in his heart was quickly overshadowed by the faint sound of system prompts. Duan Qing smiled bitterly and followed the footsteps of the woman in black, and then along with the countless gravel and dirt floating in the air. , blended into the pitch-black void. A slight feeling of suffocation, accompanied by stinging pain that spread across every inch of his skin, tightly surrounded Duan Qing's body. He gritted his teeth slightly and then used it to get rid of these negative feelings that seemed to be brought to him by another space. The state floated behind Maggie like taking a leisurely stroll: "How is it?"
"...Many." He answered with a slender finger pointing around: "And they all have bad intentions."
"We are considered invaders now, and of course we will not be welcomed." Duan Qing shrugged casually: "The question is...how should we deal with it?"
"Half for each person." Maggie glanced at the other person sideways: "You should be fine, right?"
A silent dark light then replaced Duan Qing's answer, and appeared behind the purple-black aura not far away from them. A terrifying giant head with ferocious black horns then appeared along with a large piece of black mist. In the distance in that direction, he instantly jumped in front of Duan Qing at an incomprehensible speed. Drifting slightly backwards two positions, Duan Qing barely dodged the first attack of the black giant beast, but a white light that turned into an entity appeared immediately after the giant beast suddenly pulled it. The other side of the long body wrapped a spike that was raised on the surface of the scales: "This attack...can I understand it as a regular attack?"
"You moved them out of the rift?" What answered him was a reminder from Maggie from nowhere: "This will hurt the real world!"
"What else should we do? We can't just stand there and wait to die, right?" Duan Qing helplessly answered the other party's voice that suddenly came and went, but Duan Qing retracted his move to create the next space rift: " Although these things have not reached the level of representing the rules of this space, but..."
"This kind of attack that has no form at all is already difficult enough to deal with."
He stretched out his hand, pointed his palm at the other side of the space where he was, and then blocked the other pair of eyes that suddenly appeared there, along with the countless dark auras surrounding it, from himself. It seemed that he was a little angry that his attack was hindered, and the tentacles formed by the countless black energy that originally surrounded those eyes danced more intensely, but no matter how hard the monster struggled, it could not get past it. Duan Qing's palm represents half of the horizontal plane: "Do you really want to come over, little guy? Hehehehe..."
"...How did you do it?" In the scene where the figure that originally represented the woman in black had disappeared, Maggie's voice once again appeared in his ears: "Why can you still fight them physically? "
"It's not themselves that urge them to kill us, but the rules of space that shape them." Looking at the monsters that seemed to be struggling in his hands, Duan Qing said with a bit of a smile: "Unfortunately The thing is...I am still somewhat confident in my understanding of the rules."
"...The rules of space?" The surprise in Maggie's voice increased again: "What is that?"
"Although I don't know what those destiny weavers got in this place, but... in my eyes, this place is very malleable."
Converting the inner meaning of Yi Jian into another way of saying it, Duan Qing waved his hand to catch back the black shadow that suddenly retreated: "The essence of void lies in devouring, and the essence of devouring lies in chaos. They try to accept everything, But it can’t accommodate everything…”
"Under such conditions, many energy situations will become their nemesis." He pulled back his finger, and then drew straight white lights around the struggling black shadow: "The way these energies exist They may be very strange, but they have common characteristics..."
"That characteristic is called purity."
call--
For the first time, sounds other than Duan Qing's voice sounded in the purple-black alien space. At the same time, there was a strange scene of a black shadow surrounded by light burning fiercely and a ball of white light: "Just All it takes is a little bit of pure energy and they melt away as quickly as snow on spring.”
"But that kind of energy doesn't exist at all." Maggie's voice then appeared in the space not far from the white light, and at the same time, there was the blur of her fighting with several other black shadows. Action: "Even if pure energy existed, it would be incompatible with this space... How could you possibly introduce it?"
"Of course they exist."
Showing his hands, Duan Qing pushed forward twice: "Balance is a ubiquitous thing. A single existence will only lead to the collapse and destruction of the world. In order to balance the existence of the void, there must be a certain amount of energy in this world. There is a space where there is another kind of existence, for example..."
"I'm just saying." After a moment of pause, he pushed the other invisible barrier in his hand forward, and then swept out the large pile of dark eyes in front of him from the void like sweeping the floor: "For example In order to restrain the existence of void energy, this world has set up another world of pure energy, which is responsible for separating chaos from the normal world we live in..."
"……Then what?"
"And then of course there's what we're seeing now."
Reaching out and drawing a few straight vertical lines again, Duan Qing chopped the void in front of him into several identical cubes: "These... let's call them void beasts, they have become prisoners."
"Prisoners trapped in chains of the void."
Snapped.
A crisp muffled sound then appeared around the white lines in space drawn by Duan Qing, exploding the cubes that had revealed their edges into scattered Rubik's cubes. The dusty stone walls were followed by the explosion of those Rubik's cubes. Floating, little by little, it appeared behind the extremely smooth spaces. A shrill scream then appeared on the surface of the black shadows surrounded by the Rubik's Cube, burning the black air masses that were still struggling into ashes visible to the naked eye. Duan Qing, who didn't even look at it, used With empty steps in the air, he stepped in front of the real scene that was cut open, and threw away the terrifying giant beast covered in scales that appeared behind him: "Of course..."
"This is just a targeted method, and the damage it can cause is very limited." He waved his hand in an unknown direction around him: "If the void beast here has evolved enough IQ..."
"They will use a slightly more substantial form of 'order' to escape the judgment of the world's rules."
boom!
A deafening sound then appeared next to him, and the other sharp horn of the terrifying beast suddenly stabbed in the direction. Duan Qing, who had already entered the real world, hit hard with the edges of the space he closed. The sound the other person makes when touching their body. Black clouds and mist then appeared on the rippled surface of the space that had returned to normal, gradually forming Maggie's appearance, but the eyes looking at Duan Qing now had a bit of fear and sullenness. "You, you want to lock me in?"
"Sorry, I don't have enough confidence to take the frontal attack from the one just now." Duan Qing joked again: "Besides... I am very confident in you."
"...Next time we encounter this situation, I will make you responsible for all the enemies." Maggie glared at the other party fiercely: "Since you are so familiar with the so-called rules, it must be possible to have twice as many enemies. Pour you?"
"Instead of discussing my pitiful fighting ability, it is better to study the remains in front of us."
Duan Qing, who successfully diverted the other party's attention and pointed to the front of the new underground passage, took out his Adventurer's Manual first: "Although it looks like..."
"The previous journey in the void only moved us a few miles."
