If the anomaly could have been discovered earlier that day, what would have happened at the end of the story?
If I could have discovered the problem with the portal itself earlier that day, maybe I wouldn't have rushed into the battlefield rashly, right?
If I could have noticed that woman's disappearance earlier that day...
If he could stop her in the final battle...
call--
The piercing whistling interrupted Duan Qing's gradually immersed thoughts, and at the same time swept towards his team with endless black aura, and the faint screams of souls also accompanied the appearance of this sinister wind, which began to incessantly It kept echoing in the ears of everyone in the Fool Adventure Group. Knowing in his heart the existence of this black wind that was different from the breath of void air, Duan Qing's attention gradually began to focus on the edge of the breath that was darker than the night sky, and then the faint and faint cracks sounded all around at the same time. In the air, he suddenly swung his sword forward: "Bald head!"
clang!
Amidst the loud metal collision, the big shield from Lost Dreams then appeared in front of the direction pointed by Duan Qing. The shield defense with a standard posture then collided hard with a long sword that appeared from the darkness. Together, a spherical hole was created in the black smoke-filled sky. It seems that he did not expect that the opponent could completely defend against this attack. The player who was blocked back by the big shield looked at the eyes of the lost dream with a surprised look on his face, and then turned back to the ground with a trembling sound that hurt the eardrums. Within the range of the black mist: "You actually..."
"We could actually predict your surprise attack?"
The person who answered him was Duan Qing, who was standing in the center, gradually raising the corners of his mouth: "It's very simple, as long as you learn to listen to the voice and identify the position. The black mist can only block the player's sight, but it cannot block the player's hearing..."
"Hmph, it is indeed possible to do this." He gestured calmly to his teammates, and Mephisto, who began to wander in the middle of the black mist, also let out a hoarse chuckle: "But... we are fighting now. This is a battle for the top of the mountain, and it is impossible for you to leave this area."
"When the black fog of war swallows up everything here, where else can you hide?"
The thick black fog continued to spread forward as he spoke, gradually completely surrounding the area near the corner of the summit square, including the NPC figures simulated by the system who had been fighting in this square. , was gradually drowned in the screams one after another. Worried about the potential killing effect of that cloud, Black Corn, who originally wanted to pursue him, also retracted the long knife he had raised, and the sizzling lightning was retracted as he regained that little bit of transport power. Arriving at the strange-looking long knife: "...Black Corn changed his weapon! He actually changed to a new, more powerful weapon! This weapon... seems to have the effect of electric shock!"
"But there are no so-called electrical elements in the free world, and both electrical attacks and electrical effects are very rare..."
"There have been many lightning-type attacks in the history of the free world, such as the Battle of Tania in the past and the Battle of the Ring of Morna in the Free City. Logically speaking, it should belong to the category of wind magic, but This is the first time that the electric effect attached to the weapon has appeared..."
"Although the source is unknown, this power is now in the hands of Team Zhushan!"
boom!
The loud cracking sound accompanied by the chopping made by Black Corn's hands together fell on the surface of the black mist that was about to submerge them, and a shining electric light falling from the sky penetrated it from top to bottom, and then just like what the lost dream had done before. As he arrived, a hollow round hole was blown out of the nearby black fog. The two Devil Paradise players located near the hole were also hit by the scattered electric light. Their bodies were originally hidden in the black fog. It also gradually appeared, but before the rest of Duan Qing's side could make the next move, their paralyzed figures disappeared again as the black mist surged up again: "...Recovery speed Very soon."
"Is this the solution you came up with?"
Amidst the rumbling echoes, Mephisto, who was also covered in the black fog, replied with a low smile: "Unfortunately, the scope of the fog of war cannot be dispelled. As long as the air exists, this fog will It must exist..."
"That is to say... we need to create a vacuum, right?" Recalling Black Corn's figure who was about to rush in again, Duan Qing slowly lowered his head: "Don't think I can't do it. , old man.”
"I'm not that old." He was answered by Mephisto's still elusive voice: "If you can do it...just do it for me."
Quietly retracting his dagger, Duan Qing turned to look behind him. Several figures running up pushing the carriage were slowly emerging from the bottom of the mountain road there, and then ran towards the mountain top library. He rushed over from the direction of the pavilion. Duan Qing sighed secretly in his heart, but when he turned around again, his eyes became firmer. He once again stopped Xiao Hongchen's eager move, and at the same time pulled the team's defense line back and kept retreating: " For the sake of this map, I won’t let you open your eyes this time, but..."
"If we want to break your fog, we have many other means."
The cold sword energy appeared in the center of the black mist with Duan Qing's words, cutting the seemingly endless black mist into two halves in an instant, and the figure belonging to the black corn and the lost dream seemed to be ready to go. Like cannonballs, they rushed in along the road opened by Duan Qing. The other members of the Devil's Paradise, who carefully concealed their footsteps, then took the black mist that surged forward again and strangled the two enemies who rushed into the field. However, a brilliant flame rushed to close the gap again. Before, it rose in the center of the black mist: "...It's the flame of Red Lotus! The Red Lotus girl finally takes action!"
"Two, three, four...could this be the flame cage used in the last game?"
"After the last game, many players have also checked the existing magic directory in the free world. They came to the conclusion that... the magic name 'Fire Cage' does not appear among the fire magic known to players!"
"In other words... this is a new magic created by Qian Zhihe himself?"
"wrong."
Amidst the commotion from the audience that was rising together with the flames in the picture, Lu Rigu Yan, who was sitting in the corner of the arena, shook his head and judged: "The distance is too far, and the intensity of the flames is not as high as before... This It’s not the same skill as it was a few days ago.”
"But it doesn't look like a simple pillar of flame." Fusheng Limeng, who was sitting next to him, replied with a faint smile: "Since it is a specially designed tactic, it must have its own effect, right?"
"Attack the enemy? Mark the map?" Then Luo Riguyan rubbed his chin: "Or is it simply used as lighting? Do they want to use this thing to dispel the fog?"
"They should be trying to create heat flow." Nifeng Youran, who was sitting on the other side of Sunset Guyan, was the first to light up his eyes: "Look..."
"The air current is rising."
clang!
The sound of loud metal collisions sounded in the center of the battlefield filled with black mist as the words between these people fell. A figure suddenly burst out with a lost dream and was dragged to the edge of the mountain cliff outside the mist. Then, a pillar of fire shot into the sky. It also spread to the direction where the black mist that wanted to continue to protect its own members was following, once again sending the blazing flames flying into the night sky. The thick black mist then swirled past both sides of the surface of the pillar of fire, wrapping up the struggling figures of the two people in Lost Dreams without any hindrance. However, the red-haired girl standing behind Duan Qing with her eyes tightly closed. He still maintained the posture of casting spells and shouted loudly with a concentrated expression: "No. 4! Two o'clock!"
boom!
A dull crashing sound then appeared on the left front near the penultimate pillar of fire. It was the sound made by the black corn that suddenly appeared there and knocked over another Devil Paradise team member who wanted to sneak up. Another pillar of fire lit up Duan Qing's figure. He then used an earthen wall to block a black energy flying diagonally from the black mist. A proud smile appeared on his face: "Yes, this kind of simple war The fog...just needs a few radars.”
"...That girl also expanded her own domain?"
"It's not really a domain, but with a little training, it's easy to control where the fire elements you release go..."
Pointing in the direction of the last Demon Paradise player hiding in the black mist, Duan Qing's eyes became cold and silent: "Except for Baili Duyou who has not yet appeared..."
"You guys who have relied on the darkness to survive until now should be under our noses now."
The flashing electric light then appeared with a crackling and harsh sound in the air around the pillars of fire on the right side of the black cloud. The scene of the confrontation between Black Corn and another player in black also followed. The electric light rushed outward, faintly passing through the light illuminated by the fire pillars. The black mist also began to rise and fall as the two battlefields gradually unfolded, which seemed to represent the same ups and downs of their owners' moods at this time. Duan Qing, who had been paying attention to the surrounding movements, was the first to receive the message from Qian Qian. Zhihe warned, then pointed to the left and forward with the corner of his mouth: "...The rest is all up to you."
"superior!"
"Ah--"
A roar that could tear through the night sky then crossed the top of the black mist. It was Xiao Hongchen's excited shout as he jumped from Duan Qing's head in that direction. The shirtless man stretched as hard as he could. It also appeared extremely eye-catching in the field of vision of all viewers, falling towards a certain point in an elegant parabola: "Take my spear!"
"Xiao Hongchen finally made a move! This seems to be his first shot in this UEFA Cup qualifier!"
"He jumps really high...how high is this guy's strength?"
"The strength attributes shown in the data are still a little behind those of other top players, but that guy barely wears any equipment, so his load-bearing capacity is extremely low... Huh?"
"What happened to him? Is he immobilized?"
Like a heavy stone falling into the lake, the black mist at the spot where Xiao Hongchen fell suddenly spread out to the surroundings as he fell, and Mephisto's rickety body also appeared there. In the center of the sunken black mist, he looked up at the attacking opponent with indifferent and calm eyes. As if he had no expectation of what was happening in front of him, the shouting voice of the shirtless man who was still flying in the air paused slightly for a moment, but a few dim rays of light were a finger stretched out by Mephisto, covering it. Arriving next to Xiao Hongchen who had just raised his spear: "The power of shadow——"
"The art of shadow binding!"
"Shadow Curse!"
"Power failure!"
"Slowness!"
Someone was fixed in the strange scene in mid-air like a sculpture. The deeper and deeper darkness surrounded Xiao Hongchen as Mephisto announced the curtain, and the darkness gradually appeared on the upper body exposed to the air. , even people who don’t know anything about fighting can see what’s wrong with it: “How many curses must be placed on this.”
"Curse Mage Mephisto...this is the real ability of the second master of Devil's Paradise."
"This way Xiao Hongchen won't have any lethality... No, that's not right, it should be more than that."
"By the way...and the Staff of Judgment!"
"Laugh at the mortal world!"
Loud shouts then appeared in the direction of Duan Qing, and at the same time, he suddenly took out a certain pendant. A cross-shaped energy symbol then flashed across Xiao Hongchen's body, restraining him. The shadow lines were instantly dispersed. A loud shout belonging to Xiao Hongchen then appeared in the mid-air above Mephisto along with his dizzy expression, using another shining light to wash away all the negative states he carried, hard top With the light of judgment, he then raised his gun and stabbed the figure of the black-robed magician deeply into the ground: "Hahahaha! You didn't expect it! I specially prepared a dispersal scroll for you! I... uh .”
"Why...you stopped talking?"
The hoarse voice then slowly rose from Mephisto's mouth, which was nailed to the ground, and then turned into a smile full of malice. The black cloud that had dispersed inexplicably flowed back to its original place like thick mercury. The scene where Xiao Hongchen pinned Mephisto to the ground in mid-air was slowly covered. Then the screams of black corn and the muffled hum of lost dreams came to his ears. Standing in the center of the battlefield, Duan Qing's expression became much more serious again. He inspected the teammates in the team panel who were losing their lives. After a long while, he gritted his teeth and spoke again: "This fog..."
"Your tactical arrangements are good, but unfortunately my fog of war is not that simple."
With blood still hanging from the corner of his mouth, Mephisto, who was still lying on the ground, waved and threw Xiao Hongchen's body aside: "Once the true power of the domain is activated, all friends in the domain will gain the ultimate in various attributes. With a big bonus, others will also suffer various weakenings, just like what you are showing now..."
"Weak."
Buzz——
The figure that seemed to be able to tear apart the space then passed through the entire black fog, flashing past Duan Qing who had not yet reacted. The almost provocative invisible dagger then passed by his ear, and the red hair fluttered from his head. The Thousand-fingered Crane was pierced into the chest.
