numb. Chapter 459 "One Hundred Demons Night Parade" (Part ) Hill was completely stunned, his jaw almost dropped, and he froze in place, unable to utter a word. As she stared with horror, the petite figure in a cloak walked out of the darkness slowly. There was an unfathomable abyss under her feet, but the person was standing in mid-air on some invisible plane, with no signs of falling at all. The man put his hands behind his waist, tilted his head slightly, and showed a faint smile on the half of his face. He said calmly and leisurely: "It seems I'm not too late." Hill suddenly reacted and immediately turned his head and looked around in surprise. However, all the team members maintained their previous focused and alert posture, but no one's eyes stayed on the figure walking out of the darkness, as if they didn't notice this person's existence at all. Even the great elder Julian behind him did not show any strange expression. He continued to keep a gloomy horse face and remained calm. It was obvious that he did not notice the cloaked figure. At this moment, Hill realized that although the figure could be illuminated by the fire and the voice could be transmitted normally through the air, he was the only one who could see it.
Incredible! I have no idea how they did it! But it is true. While she was surprised, the petite figure had stepped out of the dark void onto the platform, stepping steadily on the wooden boards, making slight footsteps that were particularly noticeable in the empty and lonely abyss. But no one noticed it except Hill. Hill stared straight at the eyes hidden in the haze, his heart pounding wildly. He wanted to say something, but when he opened his mouth halfway, he found that his mind was blank and he couldn't utter a word for a while. It’s Him... This voice is so familiar to me, it’s Him! That mysterious foreign god from the "other world" where the rust plague curse does not exist, a divine being who calls himself the "true creator"! He did not know how he had come to this world filled with curses and darkness, and now he was standing in front of him! After realizing this fact, Hill was shaking with excitement, but reason prevailed in the end and he did not shout out in front of his teammates and the great elder. After all, since the "True Creator" chose to show his existence only to himself, it means that he does not want more people to know about his existence for the time being. Before others noticed his abnormal emotions, Hill tried his best to suppress his facial expression and trembling shoulders, maintaining his previous nervous look, and blinked at the figure standing on the edge of the platform as if nothing had happened, indicating to the other party that he could see Him. Qi Ji could of course see her concerns, so he said slowly: "As usual, just say it silently in your mind and I will hear it." Hill breathed a sigh of relief, and then said in his heart with great excitement: "My Lord! Are you...really you? Have you come to this land in person?!" Even though it was just her inner voice without any intonation or voice, Qi Ji could hear her almost fanatical passion. He smiled helplessly and answered: "Don't get too excited. I don't recommend you go down any further. The situation down there... is not something you can handle." These words calmed Hill's heart, which was almost burning with anger. She was slightly startled, and asked in confusion and anxiety: "Sir... is there a monster down there? There was clearly nothing there when I came here last time..." Qi Ji stood at the edge of the platform, only one or two steps away from the nearest team member, nodded and said:
"Something has indeed happened. This big hole is not as simple as you think." After Qi Ji's whole body was immersed in the gray mist hidden within the blood moon, he instantly lost all perception of the outside world. At that time, she could sense nothing except the eternally restless gray. Not to mention inspiration, even if she tried to perceive the divine power... all she got in return was emptiness. It was as if... in that grey world, nothing existed, and no senses could get even a tiny bit of information from it. This is a state that is more empty than nothingness, pure "nothingness". Fortunately, Qi Ji's body has a special physique and is almost impossible to be damaged or destroyed by any external force. Otherwise, if it were anything else, no matter if it was a demigod or some mythical creature, once it entered here... it would be annihilated on the spot and turned into complete emptiness. However, in such a situation, let alone her commonly used transfer skills such as "Stand-In Flash" and "Space Grafting", even "Wandering in the Secret Realm" is completely ineffective - she can't even enter the secret realm! In this case, even "moving" is a luxury, because how can people move in a field where the concept of space does not exist? What's even more terrifying is that in that mottled and surging gray, no matter what power she released to the outside world, whether it was spiritual power or the "ash of connection", they were all like a drop in the ocean, failing to create the slightest ripple. Being in such a field gives people a feeling of being completely abandoned and forgotten by the world, being lost forever... is the only ending. But Qi Ji is not an ordinary person after all, and such a situation cannot stump her. Before entering that strange area, although she did not expect the actual situation to be so extreme, she had already planned how to deal with the difficulties in advance. It's still the Mirror of Reed Mormon! This thing is also quite magical. Although it does not possess divine power, the spirituality contained within it, although abundant and vigorous, is not a tremendous force. However, it can very stably penetrate the barrier between the "distorted earth" and the ordered world, and construct a channel that can transmit huge amounts of information. In short, Qi Ji activated the Reed Mormon Mirror and connected it to the sealed space in the gray forest. He then followed the invisible but extremely solid passage between the two... and found the breakthrough point to leave the gray area and enter the gray forest. The specific operation process is very complicated, but this is basically the principle. Just like a traveler crossing a river by feeling the stones, after several hours of searching and exploring, she finally found the exit to leave the gray area and jumped in directly! The moment she penetrated the so-called "exit", she felt a huge amount of sensory information flooding in, which meant that her senses had finally gotten rid of the maddening emptiness and were able to capture the situation in the outside world! "I didn't expect that I would end up here right after I came out." She originally thought that she would first arrive at the sealed space where the out-of-control angel was lurking. After all, that was where the Reed Mormon Mirror was connected. But in fact, when she left the gray area, the first thing that came into her eyes was a scene similar to the "shaft" of the End Mountains. Round pits, vertical rock walls, and flat sand. It was the huge hole in the center of the ruins of the city of Saint Hydra, the bottom of the space named "Abyss" by the Last Kingdom! This immediately made her realize... could it be that the blood moon at the top of the "shaft" was originally connected to the bottom of the "abyss"? The two have been connected from the beginning, and the Order of Saint Hydra originally wanted to use the blood moon as an entrance to enter the gray forest from the bottom of the "abyss". This also explains why there is a city:
It was not the members of the Order of St. Hydra who built the city more than sixty years ago who dug this big hole, but the people who walked out of the big hole and built the city around this channel connecting the ordered world! "My Lord, what do you want me to do? What should I do?" Hill asked. Since the "True Creator" personally persuaded her to stop exploring, she naturally had no objection. She was just thinking about how to persuade the team to cancel the mission with her insignificant status. "you……" Qi Ji opened his mouth halfway and was about to suggest something, but suddenly stopped. "Uh?" Hill looked at her in confusion. The girl who looked like a little girl or a god slowly lowered her head and looked at the abyss of silence just a few feet away. After a half-second of silence, she laughed and said: "It seems that I don't need to suggest it, 'they' are coming." "they……" “Ho ho ho!!!—” A scream like the wailing of thousands of ghosts penetrated her brain, interrupting her question. "You all saw that giant climbing up just now, didn't you?" Qi Ji retracted his gaze and looked at the stunned Xi'er with a half-smile: "Do you know why it's in such a hurry to climb up there?" Chapter 460 "One Hundred Demons Night Parade" (Part ) The endless roars and cries seemed to have an evil magic. The moment Hill heard them, she felt as if her head was being pricked by needles. The intense pain penetrated deep into her scalp, making her eyes go black and unable to speak. Others also suffered the same blow at the same time. They couldn't help but raise their hands to cover their foreheads and temples tightly, and their postures and formations became chaotic. "Emergency alert!" The first one in the team to escape from the attack was the most powerful elder, Julian. Facing the howling that tortured his spirit, his expression froze for a moment. The next moment, he waved his hand, and the sleeves of his loose robe danced with a crisp sound: "Cup of gluttony!" Blood-red mist poured out from his sleeves, expanding rapidly and covering everyone on the platform in an instant. Once this blood-like mist came into contact with everyone's skin, it quickly penetrated into their bodies and merged with their flesh. "call……" After being soaked in the blood mist, everyone's originally painful expressions immediately eased. Hill only felt that an endless stream of life energy was gushing out of his body like a spring, and his own condition was greatly improved: Not only did strength, stamina, and physical fitness improve significantly, but the spirit also became like an iron wall, and most of the negative emotions were dispelled and reduced. At this moment she had an illusion: she was fearless and omnipotent! Qi Ji glanced at her and said jokingly:
“It’s just an illusion.” "Uh……" Hearing these seemingly mocking words, Hill's excited and confident face collapsed, but he also regained his rationality: he calmly performed "Flame of Dawn·Clear Vision" and lowered his head to examine the situation below. "A skill that improves physical and mental fitness in a short period of time... This method of performing a skill places a heavy burden on the caster." Qi Ji looked at Julian's cuffs which were oozing blood mist, nodded his chin thoughtfully, and made a casual comment. Then she flashed and appeared beside Hill and said to her: "You'd better not look around casually." "what?" Without waiting for the other party to react, she stretched out her hand and wiped it in front of the girl's eyes, and a barely perceptible light flashed. Hill felt a refreshing coolness in her eyes. When Qi Ji moved her hand away, she found that her vision, which had been strengthened by "Yan Zhi Xin Dan·Ming Shi"... had undergone some subtle changes. She couldn't tell exactly what was different from before, but she subconsciously thought that she could see less "things", as if there was a layer of "filter" in front of her eyes, "filtering" out some...content that she shouldn't see. But if she really wanted to look into it, she couldn't really tell what was missing... In short, the things she could see did not suffer any significant loss of information due to the vague "filter". "Okay, let's see." The "real creator" wearing a cloak and a hood withdrew his hand and hugged his two thin and tender arms to his chest. Hill looked at the little girl, whose height was not even as high as the tip of his nose, with a strange look and felt very subtle. Although the "True Creator" had previously communicated with him in a spiritual way with a voice that was ethereal and pleasant but still childish... But she only thought it was some kind of disguise to hide her true identity, and never thought that this mysterious outer god was really a little girl who looked younger than herself. The result... is really?! Although it is not difficult to accept that a great being at the level of a god can change its own appearance at will. Moreover, whether the little girl in front of him is the "real creator" himself is another matter. Maybe she is just an incarnation or projection. But... when she really saw such a delicate girl speaking in a voice that she was familiar with and respected, she couldn't help but think of this scene: Whenever the "True Creator" contacted me, He would appear in such a lovely and delicate image and communicate with me in a serious and pretentious manner... Hmm... This really gave her a magical sense of contrast. "Junshiro! What the hell am I thinking about!?" Hill suddenly slapped himself hard on the forehead, forcibly pulling back his thoughts that had been letting go too much. Now is not the time to make wild assumptions! This is a mysterious and terrifying "abyss" where countless terrifying monsters lurk! She immediately stopped her reverie and lowered her head to look downward. "Ho-" The strange, terrifying, shrill and hideous howl had been increasing in volume and complexity over the past period of time. It was obvious that the source of the sound was approaching at a considerable speed.
When Hill's eyes passed over the edge of the platform and looked down, she just happened to see...what was the entity that made that sound. It was hard for her to describe those things in words. There was a group of reptiles whose number was difficult to count. Their body length ranged from three to five meters. Their lower bodies were bipedal, similar to humans, but much thicker and twisted, and full of disgusting lumps. The upper body was a mass of pink flesh, wriggling, shrinking, and expanding in a mess. Tubular flesh-colored tentacles extended from the surface of the tumor, waving and swinging aimlessly, splashing unclean and filthy mucus. At the end of each tentacle, there is an eyeball, which is red and bloodshot. The red vertical pupils are densely swaying in the darkness, emitting an ominous red light.
