In a world composed entirely of cold tones, two figures stand on the edge of the ignorance and the dark plain.
The two are looking at each other.
In Tang Qi's eyes, in addition to the burning sun, what he reflected was a huge, gray monster. Its body was like a hill, but it had no limbs, scales or feathers.
Its state is very strange. It can't describe the creepy texture after watching it. Especially with its movement, gray white seems to be made of plaster. Eyes, nose, mouth, skin bags, hands and feet... All kinds of human or animal organs fall down one after another.
The instant it fell to the ground was shattered, but there was no sound. Only the gray smell rose and reintegrated into its body.
The only thing that can make people look at it is a "gray mask" emerging in the center of its body.
On it, except for some traces of plaster, there were no traces of eyes, nose or mouth.
But strangely, Tang Qi can feel that he is "looking" at himself.
And in the instant they looked at each other, they launched a sneak attack.
An unimaginable feeling swept through Tang Qi's body.
He suddenly had an impulse to never speak again. His mouth seemed to be bonded and could no longer open and make any sound.
At the same time, his eyes also showed signs of closure.
"It's plundering my... Expressing desire?"
Tang Qi's mind was filled with this idea.
Also received a lot of information fragments exploded, much more detailed information than previously provided by Amanda.
[extraordinary creature: silent beast.]
[status: attacking.]
[information fragment 1: the most common and weakest manifestation of desire in the dark plain of the special secret place. It has a huge but empty body. It likes to launch sneak attacks on prey. Its goal is to plunder the prey's language, expression, action... And other desires related to expression.]
[information fragment 2: its way to complete hunting is to completely integrate the target into the body, which requires a touch. At that time, it will become an entity from a "nothingness" state that cannot be attacked by the entity, spirit and even mind.]
[information fragment 3: in fact, all the incarnations on the dark plain need one touch to complete the hunting. The difference is that some powerful incarnations can make the target lose themselves between touches.]
……
When the third piece of information exploded in Tang Qi's mind, he could feel that his face had become stiff.
Like the first face pinching operation by the worst sculpture art intern, it is stiff and unable to make any vivid expression.
This stiffness is spreading towards Tang Qi's limbs.
Boom!
During the movement, Tang Qi's magic surged in his body.
But just like "trial", magic cannot expel that terrible "pollution".
The only advantage is that magic prevents the spread of pollution.
Invisible pollution seems to be in a confrontation with magic. At this time, Tang Qi is fully capable of returning to the forest of ignorance.
And he did make a similar action.
The "silent beast" who seemed to have observed Tang Qi for a long time seemed to know his reaction. I don't know when, its huge body suddenly left the boundary line of the plain and stepped into the forest of ignorance, and its hill like body collapsed silently.
Then, the sky was gray and wrapped around Tang Qi.
It has to finish the last program and eat Tangqi.
It obviously didn't see the attack. Tang Qi's head was slightly lowered and his eyes were full of the projection of the sun. The trial had been removed and replaced by a strong color of ridicule.
Tang Qi even took the initiative to put his palm into the collapsed gray torrent.
At the moment of touching, the "sense of nothingness" that made Tang Qi unable to start disappeared.
Although Tang Qi still couldn't feel anything in his palm, but felt a little cold and silky, it didn't affect Tang Qi to pour out all the magic in his body and follow his fighting instinct. Tang Qi cast the "flame curse".
The extraordinary flame mixed with the magic of the furnace is enough to burn most of the strange on the mysterious side.
The nihilistic existence called "silent beast" burst out the fourth piece of information in Tang Qi's mind at the moment when it turned into an entity.
"They are the fattest fuel."
In a word, it verifies Tang Qi's previous conjecture and turns into an entity's "embodiment of desire", which is a more attractive firewood than living reality.
If it is a higher-level "embodiment" such as eating deer and laughing bats, Tang Qi may need to weigh whether he will be forcibly deprived of those desires before burning up each other.
However, the weakest and most common "silent beast" in the dark plain certified by Merlin is not within the scope of Tang Qi's fear.
Facts have proved that there is no weirdness in this world and there is no weakness.
In the state of nothingness, the silent beast, like other incarnations, is not afraid of any attack. It also includes six "trials", which can kill the professional strong at a glance.
But once he leaves nothingness, it is the fuel that makes Tang Qi excited.
At this moment, at the boundary of the forest of ignorance, brilliant and dazzling "fireworks" bloom, and the huge body of the silent beast is instantly burned to ashes. In the fleeting illusion of nothingness, one after another flashes like human shadows cast in plaster.
These "humans" have blurred their facial features, limbs and even trunk.
No one can see any information they want to express.
"Prey swallowed in the past?"
Tang Qi looked at the fireworks in front of him and suddenly remembered another message left by Merlin.
Different from the "nodes" at the foot of the mountain, whether it is the ignorant forest or the dark plain, they will stretch out their tentacles to the real world or an exotic world without authorization. They will take the initiative to capture human and other lives, throw them into the territory, and feed the living corpses and "manifestations".
In the observation and sigh, the fireworks dispersed, and the terrible malice dissipated.
In front of me, a large "snowflake" fell.
Before landing, he was pinched by Tang Qi.
"Mask?"
Tang Qi looked at his hand, a blank mask.
This mask was previously worn on the face of the "silent beast", if it had a face.
As he gazed at the mask, he turned back to the forest as he had done several times before.
A second ago, he killed a desire manifestation called "silent beast" at the price of emptiness of magic.
At the same time, the body still has some pollution sequelae. Tang Qi's face is very stiff and can't spit out any words.
However, this did not prevent him from launching special abilities. Fragments of information about the mask broke out one by one.
"Strange thing: existential mask..."
"Huh?"
Just the first fragment, the name of the mask, made Tang Qi look surprised.
The mask is obviously the treasure that Merlin said will fall after killing the "embodiment of desire". He thought that since the embodiment was called the beast of silence, the mask should also be called "Silence".
But soon, with the debris flowing out, the surprise in Tang Qi's eyes gradually turned into a surprise.
[strange thing: the mask of being.]
[status: normal.]
[information fragment 1: a special strange object from a special secret place. It contains a trace of wonderful extraordinary power. It can give the wearer some incredible abilities. For example, imitating any object you want to imitate will express the corresponding characteristics. Even if the imitated object exists in front of you, you can't distinguish the true from the false.]
[information fragment 2: it has an upper limit, below legend.]
[information fragment 3: it is temporary and unique. One 'silent beast' dies. Because of some unknown rule, other silent beasts will not be able to drop this mask until the dead silent beast comes back to life.]
……
Under a big tree that was burned black but was recovering to its original shape, Amanda, who sensed the change of the environment, slowly opened her eyes.
Just the next moment, what came into her eyes was not the "Wizard" she was gradually familiar with.
But a tall man whose whole body was covered with old armor. The terrible but obscure breath kept pouring out of the armor.
For the first time, Amanda perceived each other's realm information.
legend? Some similar, but it seems to have fallen a lot.
When Amanda was surprised and ready to take action, suddenly there was another change in front of her. The armored man turned into a cold witch wearing a Gothic black skirt. His deep eyes were very attractive, but soon, the witch changed. The short Lori, the funny skeleton pirate, the temperament youth wearing glasses, the youth half man and half sheep... Even, It's a pitcher with a big mouth.
Amanda, who had guessed something, didn't interrupt.
Soon after, a white palm suddenly took off a gray mask, and Tangqi reappeared in front of Amanda.
He looked surprised and thoughtful, holding the "existential mask".
Seeing Amanda's curiosity, he smiled and handed over the mask.
As the first treasure dropped by the monster on the dark plain, Tang Qi has personally experienced its wonder.
The ability of the mask is undoubtedly very magical.
Probably equivalent to the high-level "deformation", and the one without flaws.
The only drawback is that it has an upper limit.
That is, you can't morph into a legendary creature.
The wandering Knight Nicholas who fell from the "legend" is just its limit.
Although Amanda is a cold girl and has an experience that ordinary girls can't imagine, as a smart "weird", it's natural to maintain curiosity about some incredible wonders.
Tang Qi ignored her and let her slowly experience the effect of "existential mask".
Tang Qi has a case in his heart about how to use "it" and how to safely break through the "dark plain".
But before that, he needs to restore his seriously depleted magic.
With this in mind, Tang Qi sat down directly, leaned on the big tree and suddenly entered a state of meditation.
