After the field of vision was invaded, it was followed by a feeling of dizziness.
After a while, Lin You came to his senses, but Li Zihan, who was not far away from him, was still in a daze.
Lin You, who had fallen down at some point, tried to stand up, but felt a violent shaking. He had to use magic to attach his feet to barely grasp the ground... No, this didn't feel like the ground. The feeling from his feet was softer and a little slippery.
Could it be that...
Savoring this feeling, feeling the movements of the outside world, and combining it with everything he perceived at the moment, even though the vision in front of him was still black and red, some astonishing guesses emerged in Lin You's mind.
And before he came to his conclusion, the edge of the irregular area.
Surrounded by the power of the super source, Zhang Ze, standing in the air, had already sensed the movements of the Death Forest. He couldn't help but smile and said, "It seems that in terms of mobility, the young man from the human world is still better. This has triggered the Undead Python. Brother Ni, your people need to work harder."
Doubt flashed across Nicolophia's eyes. After a moment, she snorted coldly, "You've entered the Death Forest so quickly. You can imagine how dense the death aura is. Perhaps you won't even need anyone from my realm to intervene. You'll be buried in this Death Forest."
"That may not be the case."
Zhang Ze laughed, then teased, "Brother Ni, you're being a bit too blunt. Have you forgotten that there are benefits to being the first to enter the Death Forest? You should really want your people to get these benefits, right?"
Nicolophia's expression changed slightly, but she then said coldly, "Those who are strong will naturally benefit from it, but those who are weak will only seek their own destruction. Especially if they rush in first without regard for the cost, it is extremely foolish!"
"Oh haha, do you really think so?"
Zhang Ze's smile was inexplicably mean, and that smile made Nicolofia feel extremely uncomfortable.
His figure flashed and turned into pitch-black smoke, disappearing in vain on the spot.
"Escape now?"
Zhang Ze felt a little bored, but he stretched his body and fell into thought.
They succeeded in climbing the mountain so quickly... Did Xiaoye use the super source power?
A bit luxurious!
…
"What... is going on?"
Li Zihan, who had just woken up from dizziness, looked around, but even with the magic power in his eyes, he could only see black and red.
The only thing that is certain is that Lin You is also in this environment, and his breath can be felt not far away.
"You're awake."
Noticing the movement, Lin You said with a smile: "Don't panic, it's just a small scene. It seems that we have been swallowed by something."
“Who’s panicking…”
Li Zihan was a little unhappy, but when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he was stunned when he heard the next sentence.
Then, he said dully, "You're kidding me. How is this possible? We clearly..."
He was halfway through his speech when he sensed some movement outside and began to sweat coldly.
Why does it feel like I'm moving at high speed?
Could it be?
Thinking of what Lin You just said, Li Zihan broke out in a cold sweat.
Soon, he couldn't sit still any longer and said, "Then what are you waiting for? Summon the monster quickly and disintegrate this thing that swallowed us for no apparent reason from the inside. Is that slippery thing here stomach acid? Does this bastard still want to digest us?"
I was a little angry and a little panicked.
This is not a joke!
"Don't be impatient."
Lin You said calmly: "Don't you feel something is wrong?"
Li Zihan even had the urge to curse. It was already this late, and he still had the mood to think about this and that?
But he managed to calm down somewhat. After all, seeing Lin You was so calm, wouldn't it be embarrassing if he appeared too flustered?
After calming down a little, Li Zihan also discovered something unusual.
The connection between myself and the outside soul...is still being established!
In other words, the Blue Ice White Night Dragon was not destroyed!
Based on the soul connection, he could sense that the Blue Ice White Night Dragon outside was launching an attack, but the guy who swallowed them was still moving on its own.
What does this mean?
Seeing Li Zihan's confusion, Lin You chuckled and explained, "You've noticed it too, right? Our monster is attacking this guy, but he's choosing to ignore it. This means two things: first, it's strong enough to withstand the external attack and maintain its high speed. Second, it's likely not hostile to us."
"No hostility?"
Li Zihan looked at Lin You in surprise.
"That's probably the case."
Lin You nodded. "I can't believe it. We just entered the Death Forest and we actually encountered such a powerful monster. It swallowed us up before we even had time to react, and then it started moving at high speed. And to prevent being left behind, it even brought my Gunner Dragon with it. Why do you think that was?"
"Is it still moving with your Gunner Dragon?"
Li Zihan was surprised, his mind racing as he vaguely understood something. "It's afraid you'll lose your soul connection. If it were a pure undead monster, it wouldn't have such thoughts. In other words, is it part of this fatal battle, a setup between the two realms?"
Lin Youxu pressed his index finger and said with a smile, "That's right. They're acting like this right after we entered the Death Forest. It looks like they're trying to take us somewhere, or rather, forcefully control our location."
Li Zihan said with a cold face, "You're just a troublemaker."
Inside the belly of the unknown creature, the two stopped talking and were constantly sensing changes in the outside world.
After a while, the speed of this unidentified creature gradually slowed down.
After a while, it stopped completely.
As soon as it stopped, Lin You and the other person felt a surge in their stomachs, and a large amount of stomach acid pushed them to move higher.
After a burst of uncontrolled push, the two people's vision suddenly became wider.
It’s like flying up to the sky, and all you see is the gray sky.
The sound of breaking wind was heard, it was Qingbing Baiyelong, who immediately caught the two people in the air.
The sound of heavy footsteps was also heard, and the Gunner Dragon was indeed nearby.
At this time, Lin You and the other two finally saw clearly the monster that swallowed them.
It was a giant python with a black and red body, nearly thirty meters long, taller than many of the surrounding trees.
At this moment, the giant python stood upright, looking down at the two of them from a high position. Its body was filled with a thick aura of death, which was extremely oppressive!
Suddenly, the giant python swept its body, as if using it as a whip, and slammed it hard on a tree beside it.
Bang!
The tree exploded into powder in an instant, but at the moment the tree exploded, a smooth, round glass bead emerged.
That glass bead looked like the soul of some monster.
What is worrying is that this glass bead is also constantly emitting a black and red aura of death.
As soon as the glass bead appeared, the giant python blew a breath, and the bead flew towards Lin You and the others on its own as if it had heard an order.
"Well, there's an unexpected gain?"
Lin You stared at the flying glass beads with great curiosity. Li Zihan also looked over and immediately noticed something. "Those two black spots gathered together on it, they must have some special symbolic meaning, right?"
"Try it and you'll know. Pay attention to the black spot on it."
Lin You suddenly thought of something and jumped off the Qingbing Baiye Dragon.
When he was about to land, a large amount of magic power attached to his feet, and he landed steadily in a half-squatting posture.
As soon as he landed, he used his magic to transmit a message to Li Zihan, "How is it? Has the black spot above changed?"
Li Zihan, who was a little confused just now, was surprised at this moment: "It moved. This black spot can record our location? Then, it can probably record the location of others as well. With this thing, it will be much easier for us to integrate our forces."
"That's right, but maybe there's more to it than that..."
Lin You said this with an intriguing smile.
Li Zihan understood immediately this time, and then he smiled excitedly in front of Lin You, which was rare. "If we can also record the positions of those sub-source duelists, those guys will be in trouble!"
As the two were talking, there was a sudden loud noise.
It was the giant python that suddenly dived into the ground, but the ground did not crack, but instead layers of energy ripples were created.
In a moment, the huge python disappeared from the spot.
The little guy could still sense its breath, but it was already thousands of meters away!
Lin You whispered, "This giant python looks like it's here to give us some benefits, but we may not be the only ones who get these benefits."
Li Zihan nodded slightly. "Indeed, if everyone has one of these, it will help the fight progress. Otherwise, in such a large area, it would take who knows how long just to find an opponent. But who cares? With this thing, those sub-source duelists should prepare their necks. I will break them one by one!"
"But for the time being, it's probably impossible to find anyone. It's going to be difficult for them to get here faster than us."
Lin You said this while observing the surrounding environment.
This place is already inside the Death Forest, but the place where the giant python brought them is a relatively open area.
There is a large open area at the back, and many black and red marks can be seen on the ground, which is a sign of infiltration by death energy.
After observing for a while, Lin You said with a little disappointment, "Is this place so poor and desolate that only the air of death remains? I was hoping to make a fortune in the Death Fight Secret Realm."
But who would have thought that, let alone treasures, even the most basic card souls do not exist here.
Undead monsters are all born from death energy. After they are destroyed, only death energy can be seen.
Li Zihan was stunned. Why do I feel like you are more arrogant than me?
Do you even know what the occasion is?
A fight to the death!
If you are not careful, your life may be lost here. How can you still think about other things?
While I was still thinking, suddenly, the black and red glass bead began to tremble slightly.
This movement immediately attracted the attention of the two.
Then, two more black spots appeared on the glass bead.
The two newly added black dots seemed extremely far away from the black dots they transformed into.
It just appeared and disappeared immediately.
"What's the meaning?"
Li Zihan was stunned. Lin You pondered for a while and guessed, "Maybe the detection distance is limited. If it exceeds the distance, it cannot be detected."
"Then why did you appear just now?"
Two possibilities
Facing Li Zihan's doubts, Lin You explained, "Either it's a special mechanism. When other people first appear in the Death Forest, a reminder will appear on the 'detection bead' and then disappear. Or it's related to the detection distance. The two people represented by the black dots were within the detection range when they first appeared, but then suddenly exceeded the range and disappeared."
"It should be the former."
Li Zihan was immediately convinced, but Lin You shook his head slightly. "Not necessarily. The latter is also possible. Even though it only flashed for a moment, who can guarantee that they wouldn't appear further away in that short moment? Don't forget what we just encountered. That giant python was extremely fast."
After saying that, he added, "Of course, theoretically, the former is more likely, but it's also possible that neither hypothesis is true. There's no point dwelling on this now. Only when a fixed black spot emerges can this detection bead truly demonstrate its value. Otherwise, we won't have a definitive answer to its basic function."
"So what do we do now?"
As soon as Li Zihan finished asking the question, his face froze and he felt a little regretful.
grass!
How could I just give him the decision-making power of the action!
But he asked it so naturally, without thinking there was anything wrong with it.
He couldn't help but curse himself in his heart. In response to Li Zihan's question, Lin You simply said, "Let's just wait and see. In short, we still need to find a stable black spot first. Otherwise, there's little point in moving. Even if we're aiming to explore the environment, the disadvantages will outweigh the advantages. This place is too vast to gain a thorough understanding. We might even encounter some troublesome undead monsters along the way."
Li Zihan said nothing.
But he didn't object, because he knew in his heart that this was the best choice.
Staying here first should be the safest place.
If nothing unexpected happens, the giant python just now has a considerable deterrent power in the Death Forest. It is difficult to be targeted from the position where it leads the way.
This was indeed the case. The two of them stayed where they were and let the Blue Ice White Night Dragon land. While they were waiting quietly, they did not encounter any undead monsters.
Of course, this is related to the extremely weak death energy that lingers on them.
That faint death energy was absorbed by Li Zihan when he activated cards and summoned monsters before, so it was nothing.
Once you are in the Death Forest, you can activate the card and everything will be fine.
Otherwise, the Qingbing Baiye Dragon would not be able to fly so freely.
Time passed slowly, and after another half a while, the black spots appeared on the test beads again, and there were still two of them.
But this time the ending remained unchanged. As soon as it appeared, it disappeared again.
"Disappeared again..."
Lin You thought for a moment and said, "It seems that for black spots that are beyond the distance and have just arrived, they will only leave a mark for a moment."
Li Zihan frowned and said, "Maybe it has nothing to do with distance. You've overestimated the effect of this thing. It might just be a one-time marking."
"Perhaps."
Lin You didn't refute him. Li Zihan frowned even deeper. "Then what should we do? Continue to wait here?"
After saying that, he slapped his forehead.
I feel a little tired and too lazy to call myself stupid.
"Wait and see."
Lin You nodded, "Let's wait for two more black dots. If the situation persists, we can try to take action and focus on capturing any signs of combat."
"Still waiting?"
Li Zihan was a little annoyed. Just as he was about to say something, the detection bead moved again.
Two black spots appeared again, but this time, they were different.
Lin You and the other man's eyes lit up at the same time, "Got it!"
