The crowd kept walking on the dark and empty hanging ladder.
With each step, the red mark will light up, turning the steps under your feet into entities. When you go to the next step, the steps in front will slowly turn into virtual shadows, and finally disappear in the dark.
They are like stepping on a ladder without a way back.
At this time, it was almost a quarter of an hour before they left the platform where the box of Western Asia was located, but they still didn't see the end of the ladder.
Moreover, the stairs sometimes spiral upward and sometimes fall tens of meters like jumping off a building. The route of overturning and handstand has become the norm.
If the red mark hadn't been pulling people in the direction, they even wondered if they were going the wrong way.
Now, they have come to a big circle of stairs, sometimes handstand and sometimes straight. The gravity field here is quite chaotic. Even if they take the handstand section, they don't feel falling.
At the halfway point of the great circle ladder, Kael suddenly wondered, "how can my mark fly in a different direction from you?"
Because Kael was last, they didn't find anything unusual before. At this time, they turned around and looked at Kael when they heard his voice in the spiritual tie.
But I saw Kael ten meters away standing on the original ladder, and the red mark in front of him was flashing in the other direction.
At the same time, the corresponding virtual shadow of the ladder also appeared in the direction of Kael.
"Is there a different route for this ticket?" Dox looked at Angel suspiciously.
Angel is the one who has communicated with West Asia for the longest time, and knows more information than they do.
However, angel was also a little confused: "I asked about this mark. Sisia only said that this is the rule of this alien space. Only with the red mark can we safely reach the exit. I didn't mention that there will be separate roads on the way."
At this time, the black count also confirmed: "I have asked similar questions, and the answer is almost the same as what angel said."
"What should Kael do now? Or I'll go back and pick him up?" Dox road.
Angel: "when the mark is activated, it will only move forward. If you don't believe it, try to step back."
Dox's practical spirit was quite enough, and he stepped directly onto the back ladder. However, as angel said, the red mark did not flicker at all, nor did it retreat with DOX, but hung in its place.
The ladder on which DOX half stepped became a virtual shadow that did not exist at all.
Dox was also reckless, thinking that only a few meters, he would pull Kael over again... As for Kael's loss of red mark, DOX didn't consider it at all. Anyway, he would put it into his exile space if it was a big deal.
However, when DOX was about to rush to Kael, Kael shook his head in horror.
Dox was wondering when he suddenly felt frightened.
Not only DOX, but also others present felt something wrong.
"Quick spirit, pull DOX back quickly!" As soon as angel realized that it was wrong, he immediately ordered the quick spirit to summon a strong wind suction vortex, and instantly pulled DOX, whose feet had separated from the ladder, back to the ladder.
Dox, who returned to the ladder, was panting with lingering palpitations.
"What, what's going on? What just happened?" Dox gasped as he questioned.
However, everyone did not see the specific situation, but felt something wrong.
At this time, Kael's voice came from his heart: "dark shadow, as soon as Lord Hongjian stepped out of the ladder, I saw a huge dark shadow floating up from the void below."
"Huge shadow? It's so dark here. Are you sure you're right?" Asked angel.
Kael: "I'm absolutely right. That color is completely different from the darkness around..."
"Has the shadow disappeared now?" Dox was a little worried that he was being watched by something dirty.
Kael: "the red sword Lord stood within the light source covered by the red mark again, and the dark shadow sank and disappeared."
Hearing this, they understood why angel said that this red mark can only enter, not retreat.
Once you step back, you encounter this unknown terror.
Angel: "sisia said before that there was danger in the void. Unexpectedly, the danger came so fast. Once he left the ladder, the shadow immediately covered his head..."
Count Black: "a different space shouldn't be so weird, and it's still feeding monsters in the void."
Angel: the monster raised
Count Black: "I can't think of any other existence except the monsters raised. This strange space is designed like this. Something's wrong... I have a hunch that there should be some unknown secrets in the depths of the void here."
The black count looked into the dark void with a trace of exploration in his eyes.
"If there are secrets here, the prison hanging ladder may also contain secrets... Because the situation of the prison hanging ladder is similar to that here." Angel paused: "but even if there is a secret, it should have nothing to do with our trip."
Angel is not curious about these "secrets", but the secrets here must be related to the prison ladder or the high-level decision-making of Naro City, which is obviously not what he can participate in now.
Moreover, angel doesn't want this exploration to be full of twists and turns.
"Indeed, it has nothing to do with probability." The black count did not deny angel's words: "you can put it aside for a while."
"The secrets here don't need to be considered at all now. However, Kael's situation is very urgent, which needs to be considered." Dox road.
"There's nothing to worry about. He'll go wherever the red mark leads him. Since cecia said that the red mark can take us out of here, we'll meet at last." When the black count said this, he whispered, "moreover, maybe we will all have our own way later."
Hearing the black count's words, the first response was Kael in the distance: "indeed, if there is only one road, there is no need to buy so many tickets. Since each of us has tickets, it may mean that everyone will have a different road."
"I'll follow the red mark next." After a pause, Kael said in a solemn voice, "go alone."
Kael's tone was firm. DOX thought for a moment and whispered, "well... It's normal to walk alone."
"It's not alone." Cael scratched his head: "isn't the soul tie still connected? After I go on the road, I'll report the situation with you!"
Kael took a deep breath and walked in the direction indicated by the red mark.
The crowd watched Kael's figure go farther and farther until it disappeared in the dark. They silently looked back and continued to move forward along the great circle.
Kael did, as he said, talk about the situation from time to time to show that he was all right.
After walking for a few minutes, when the great loop was at the top, a forked road also appeared in front of DOX.
This time, without much to say, DOX nodded to the crowd and embarked on a dark journey alone.
When DOX went away, VAI sighed: "it seems that adults are right. Everyone really has a different way..."
Count Black: "everyone has his own way, so I didn't stop you from deciding to stay in Mesopotamia, because this is your own choice and your own way."
Wai was speechless on the surface, but he had to take the opportunity to teach him a few words at this time.
Obviously, the road here is not the same.
VAI felt a little wronged, but this grievance soon disappeared, because he led the red light mark of the black count to the other direction.
The black count did not say anything and left on his own.
The rest are angel and Wai.
VAI was in a rare good mood at this time. He could walk with his idol. This dark long road also became bright.
However, it's good to be alone with idols, but VAI doesn't know what topics to talk about. Will idols be interested in the topics he is interested in? If you're not interested, isn't it embarrassing to talk?
When VAI thought about how to speak, angel said one step ahead of him: "you said before that you wanted to customize a crystal ball. Are you sure it was a crystal ball? Are there any other options, or what effects the crystal ball needs, and are there any restrictions on material and shape?"
VAI hurriedly said, "yes, I'm sure to use the crystal ball. Because my ability, relying on some of the essential characteristics of the crystal ball, can play better... Moreover, the diviner looks more professional with the crystal ball."
"As for the limitation and effect of the crystal ball, I personally hope that the introduction of energy can be smooth, and the bearing energy level should be higher. Most importantly, it can not be eroded by the smell of death..."
Angel raised his eyebrow: "are you sure it's the smell of death?"
VAI subconsciously said, "yes, the smell of death."
But after answering, VAI found that angel was looking at himself with deep eyes. VAI thought for a moment: "did your excellency find it?"
"I don't know what the breath of death is like. Your surface is the breath of death. In fact, it contains another opposite breath. Well... In other words, you live to death."
Wai's expression was a little surprised, but his eyes were bright: "it's worthy of being super dimension. It's so deep that you can detect it. My adults also said that unless it's a wizard whose soul is on the death side, other wizards can't perceive it unless they reach the realm of true knowledge."
"DOX never noticed."
VAI looked at angel with adoration on his face.
Angel was a little embarrassed by this look. In fact, the black count was right. Anyway, he didn't see it. The words in the back were just a patchwork of sisia's words.
Angel must have a purpose to point it out.
"Although this alternative breath of death can also be treated as an ordinary breath of death, a series of materials such as dead bones, Requiem stones, soul separation crystals and so on are used to resist its erosion of alchemy props."
"But after all, it's not the real breath of death. If I can specifically feel this breath of death, I should be able to refine it more in line with your requirements."
After a pause, angel added: "I don't know if you can understand that as a member of the R & D Institute, all the props I need to refine are high-quality products... I don't want to say the specific reasons. Therefore, I don't want to have any defects in my alchemy career."
Angel's words first set out the facts, then guided them, and finally gave VAI a reverie space with perceptual blank.
At this time, VAI had completely entered angel's rhythm and said excitedly: "do adults need to observe my death olfactory ability? I can cut off my nose and let adults study!"
Angel: "
Do you Noah people have the habit of splitting organs? Always cut your nose. Besides, why do I study your nose. Blood ability is inherited from the black count, and the nose is just a medium.
Angell's heart was tucked up, but his face shook his head gently. "No need for trouble. If there is something similar to that crystal ball before, let me make complaints about the smell."
"Something like a crystal ball?" VAI thought for a moment, but he couldn't think of anything similar to his crystal ball.
Seeing Wai's confused appearance, angel had to guide again.
"Are you the only descendant of Noah who inherited the smell of death? Have no other descendants of Noah had the smell of death before?"
Angel has prompted this. Why doesn't Wai understand.
"Yes! I remember!" Wai's eyes changed from confusion to enlightenment: "my adult used to have a crystal ball. It is said that it was given to him by an old friend of the adult. But later it was useless and said that the crystal ball was not good-looking. But I think the crystal ball clearly fits the ability of death smell, and it is relatively powerful, which will make the guests of the divination shop more trust."
VAI muttered to himself, then patted his chest and assured him, "when adults need it, I will bring the crystal ball to adults."
Angel: anytime after you leave here
Wai's eyes lit up and his heart was slightly moved. As a member of the R & D Institute, he must have received many refining requests, but now he puts his refining requests in the first place. I think he is worried that if he doesn't have a crystal ball, the divination shop can't open.
How sweet!
Angel looked at VAI with slightly moist eyes and wondered, what's the matter with this guy? Why are you so emotional?
Angel was thinking about whether to say something to comfort vay.
VAI didn't give him a chance and said to angel with an excited look: "I, I'm sure I can live up to the love of adults!"
Angel:
Before angel could figure out where the wind was blowing in VAI, the red mark in front of him began to fly in another direction.
Angel looked at another slowly emerging virtual shadow ladder around him and said to VAI, "it seems that it's time for us to go our separate ways. I'll go first and see you at the door of the hanging prison ladder."
Angel waved to VAI and walked to the other side.
Under VAI's reluctant gaze, he slowly disappeared.
Angel walked very freely, also because he had finished what he should say and what he should pave the way. As for whether he could finally get the crystal ball of count black, it depends on VAI's own play.
However, speaking of... Before, vay said that one of his friends gave the black count's crystal ball to him?
Black count's friend? Crystal ball? These two key words make angel have some associations.
Angel always had an inexplicable hunch that the friend of the black count... Should not be the one he knew.
