Backstage of players in the boundless field.
This is probably the most peaceful backstage player in the new star game so far. Nearly a hundred contestants sit or stand in such a large space, or look down against the wall, or float in silence in the air.
Even the guy with the most sharp head dare not make any action at this time. Because the captains of the four law enforcement teams, according to the four directions, although they did not release the pressure, their gloomy eyes swept around the people, making people feel cold on their backs.
"If anyone gets into trouble at this time, no matter how justified you are, I will directly cancel your award-winning qualification." It was one of the four law enforcement team leaders, a hunchback wizard with a magic wand. His skin was drooping and hugged gravity, but his eyes hidden behind his old skin were still gloomy.
They came to the new star competition in order to qualify for the endless corridor. If you are disqualified, you will definitely regret it all your life.
Therefore, under this threat, no one dares to pick the trouble lightly.
Although it is rare for players to show signs of peace backstage, it is not quiet. The law enforcement team leader only asked not to cause trouble and did not prohibit them from communicating. Therefore, taking advantage of this rare opportunity, players are also interacting.
For example, in the southeast corner, two people are communicating silently.
"You seem to be restless these days. If you have anything on your mind, you might as well say it?" Serum squatted in the corner with heidian in his arms and looked at naushika shrouded in smoke on the other side.
There was hesitation on nausica's face, as if she wanted to say something, but finally she shook her head: "I have nothing, but you. I thought you would always indulge in your emotions. I didn't think you were in the mood to pay attention to others, so you're not sad now?"
Serum's eyes were a little dark, and he held heidian's hand and tightened a little: "since heidian told angel that he would come back, I... Believe him."
Naosika held the cigarette gun horizontally and spit out a smoke with rose fragrance: "he will come back, and he will become stronger and become your strongest arm."
"I hope so." Serum paused: "I'm more curious about you than about me. Don't change the subject. I don't believe you have nothing."
"... is it because of Reynolds?"
After a moment of silence, nausica admitted, "it really has something to do with him. He... Invited me to do something. I was thinking whether to do it or not."
"Is it dangerous?"
"Everything has risks. It's just a question of whether you can afford it." Nausica's eyes were misty, and she didn't know it was the smoke or confusion.
"Can you bear it? Or what can you get if you pay the price?" Serum asked.
"I don't know, because there is a restricted area full of unknown, which may or may not be risky. Reynolds escaped from that place. His goal is to destroy it, and my goal is something inside." When she finished, she looked at serum and suddenly burst into laughter.
She found that she was not as brave as serum.
Nausica lifted her ears and hair, and serum dared to fuse the blue blood for the chance of almost dying. And myself, even the choice between these two options, are hesitating.
Thinking of this, nausica had some hesitation in her heart, but she had some bias at this time.
Serum didn't know what nausica was feeling. He still asked along with her words, "what is it?"
Nausica hesitated and said, "what I want is from that laboratory..."
Nausica was interrupted in the middle of her speech because there was a sudden commotion not far away. They looked over and found that there was a huge door in the middle of the backstage.
The door is slowly opening at this time.
With the appearance of the crack in the door, dazzling white light shines from the inside.
When everyone wondered what the door meant, a low and elegant female voice came into everyone's ears: "players begin to enter."
At the same time, the old hunchback wizard also said, "don't be stunned. It's time to go in. The final ceremony is the road of glory behind this door."
The road to glory? While nausica was still thinking about what this meant, the door had been completely opened.
Under the crowd, nausika and serum were pushed into the door one after another. The previous conversation was also forced to stop.
When nuushika came out of the crowd, she was free to observe the situation around her.
Clear blue sky, no clouds can be seen. Without the shelter of clouds, the sun shines directly down, shining the golden yellow of the land.
The place where they are now is a somewhat deserted square. Although the ground has begun to crack, it is still very flat, with some artificial patterns.
Each contestant was observing the surrounding situation. Finally, everyone's eyes gathered in front of the square.
A road full of tall stone pillars.
This road leads directly to the mountain top not far away. Along the way, there are many stone pillars up to more than ten meters, extending to the mountain top.
On the top of the mountain is a huge palace. The palace seems to be made of metal, which is reflective from a distance.
At the main gate of the palace, there was a figure. I don't know who it was.
"This is the road to glory?" When nausica whispered to herself, a gust of wind suddenly blew.
The sun shines directly on the skin, some slightly hot. The sudden wind brought a strange coolness.
When she looked at the windy place, she saw a light screen in the middle of the square. The movement of the light screen brought a cool wind, which seemed to remind people to pay attention here.
When everyone looked over, a row of words appeared on the light screen.
Welcome to the path of glory.
The typesetting shows where they are, but there is no other information.
Everyone doesn't know what to do next. Is it right here to look at each other? Or do you want to climb this glorious road to the top of the mountain?
When people were confused, the characters on the light screen slowly appeared and changed.
"No. 100 in the new star competition, shadow of the sky."
With the appearance of this row of handwriting, the center of the light screen was like the water, creating a ripple, and a card with a faint light floated out of the light screen.
Under the cool wind, the card fluttered down, spun in the air, and finally fell into the hands of a young man in blue in the corner.
Someone nearby knew the young man and whispered, "I fought with him. He is the shadow of the air."
This card is obviously deliberately blown into the hand of the empty shadow. Is this the reward of the empty shadow?
People who are familiar with the shadow of space want to come forward and ask. But the empty shadow didn't answer. He took the card and pondered for a moment, as if he were receiving some information.
After a while, the shadow of the sky suddenly moved.
Came to the edge of the square.
Previously, the square was sealed by a strange force. Although you can see the situation outside, you can't go out.
However, the shadow of the air broke the prison. He was not limited by the boundary of the square and walked out of the square easily.
And there seems to be a goal.
Without hesitation, he ran towards the road leading to the top of the mountain.
