As soon as I stepped into the barrier, I could clearly feel a cold air blowing towards my face. It was obvious that the fog was getting thicker. Other than that, the scene inside the barrier is not much different from the outside. There is still a street extending back.
"What is the principle of this barrier? Why does it block the strong and allow the weak?" Kaguya still finds it very strange. Normally, the barrier is deployed to isolate the weak. The current situation is really puzzling. .
"Actually, we have already noticed this when we entered this city." After separation from Crowe, Mu was able to speak out what he had discovered.
"Oh? You might as well tell me!" Gawain was also a little curious.
"The fog that permeates here is not so much fog as it is a kind of weird Taoism. When we were outside, we felt an aura from it, and after entering the barrier, the aura became stronger." Mu explained said.
"You mean, this barrier is not naturally formed, but man-made?" Gawain frowned.
"Although it is man-made, I did not sense the breath of any living beings from it. It was either a high-grade weapon spirit or a dead thing. And being able to develop such a large-scale barrier at least proves that its strength is definitely not low."
"Undead..." Artoris almost lost her soul when she heard this name, "Is it too late for me to regret it now?"
Artoris just said something casually, but she didn't expect Mu to reply immediately: "It's too late, the other party has already discovered us!"
"Dingling bell~"
"Dingling bell~" A strange silver bell sound came from the empty and silent street, huddled in the pile of debris on the corner of the street, Atoris's heart was in her throat. As the ringing sounded closer, a black shadow in the mist flashed past the eyes of the three of them.
There was no sound of running, and there was no other sound except the sound of the silver bell. If it is not flying in the air, how can any living thing not make any sound when it moves?
The fog was so thick that I couldn't see the black shadow at all. I only knew that the opponent was very tall and moved very quickly.
When the ringing sound faded away, Artolis finally let out a breath. It's so depressing. It's such a scary place. Fortunately, I'm not alone...Eh?
When she turned around, Atoris suddenly realized that Gawain and Kaguya were nowhere to be seen. The two people who were still beside her just now seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
"What are you looking for?" The Wolf King's voice suddenly came into Atoris's mind, which shocked Atolis, but she felt a little relieved after knowing that it was the Wolf King's condolences. .
"Gawain and Kaguya, they are gone, even though they were still there just now..."
"You brat and Kaguya?" The Wolf King wondered, "Didn't you come in alone from the beginning?"
"A... what are you talking about, Mr. Feng? The three of us obviously accepted the commission together." Artolis took a breath, but for some reason she felt quite unsure when she said this.
Is it really three people? Artoris' eyes moved downwards, and what she kept holding on to was not the hem of Kaguya's clothes, but the yellowed order form. Artoris had a headache. She was too tired these days and was in a daze. In fact, she was the only one who followed Crowe here after accepting the commission?
Artoris shuddered, and the next second the silver bell sounded again. It was also at this time that the Wolf King reminded: "You've been discovered by that guy, run away!"
This time, the black shadow captured her position, and she was afraid that she would not be able to hide. Without hesitation, Artolis put away the order form and got into the alley next to her.
While running, Artolis suddenly thought of something, the Taoist method of transforming the Three Purities into One Qi. Ever since she understood this method, Artolis found that her attention was clearly spread too far, but she was still able to concentrate on the work at hand. . This is also how she can talk to others calmly during the enchantment process without affecting the completion of the enchantment.
But what she didn't realize was that maintaining this state was putting a lot of pressure on her spirit. Could it be that he had hallucinations under this pressure, and with the help of Sansing Taoism, he divided his personality into three and created the appearance of Gawain and Kaguya in his own eyes?
Thinking of this, Artoris wiped her sweat. If so, what were your thoughts in accepting the commission requested by Mr. Crow? Even if the A-level commission was an exploration type, could it be completed by myself? Still in a place like this!
I don’t know how long I ran, but when I could no longer hear the ringing from behind, Artolis leaned against the wall and took a few breaths. A purple-gold formation illuminated in front of him, and the Wolf King jumped out of the formation and walked in front of Atoris, roaring twice towards the end of the road.
Upon seeing this, Artoris raised her head. Eighty percent of the thick fog in front of her eyes dissipated, revealing a streetlighted intersection in the dark world. Artoris' pupils trembled as she saw eight people sitting around the center of the intersection.
Gawain, Xilu, Ye Jian Qianyin, Yun Guixi and three unknown young people, it is quite strange for these people to appear here together. But what really frightened Artolis was not these, but the fact that she saw herself among those eight people!
After swallowing her saliva, Artoris lowered her head and realized that the Wolf King had disappeared at some point. The crossroads ahead were shrouded in fog again, but it dispersed only within a few breaths.
There was no one at the intersection this time, and the empty intersection was lit only by a dim street lamp. Artoris mustered up the courage to walk towards the intersection ahead, chose a direction and continued moving forward.
But after a few minutes, she felt a little surprised. It's still the same intersection, and the dim lights are still there, as if I've chosen a direction and gone around in a circle and come back here.
It was probably just that the intersection was similar. He was obviously going straight, so how could he possibly return to the original place. Walking into that intersection again, although she hinted in her heart that she was overthinking it, Artolis still threw a spiritual stone in a corner of the intersection just to be on the safe side, and then chose the same direction again.
However, ten minutes later, she returned to this intersection again, and this time Artolis walked in without much thought. If this is still a coincidence, then what is the explanation for the spiritual stone in this corner?
To be honest, Artolis was a little panicked. This strange phenomenon was beyond her comprehension. Although she felt fear in her heart, she still chose to give it another try. This time, she ignored it and went straight ahead!
The Wolf King couldn't contact him for some reason. As a contracted beast, he could communicate with him at any time. He just hoped that the other party would never encounter any danger.
