Volume 1: The Appearance and Interior of the World 099 The relationship with Chu Qiu has been tested
Walking along this new bloody path, Poplar found a completely different scene, the border area that had previously appeared as an incomparably huge sphere was once again reduced to a black body the size of a ping-pong ball in the distance.
Although the darkness is still there, there is a lot less chaotic and uncertain feeling, and there is a sense of direction from front to back, left and right.
A humanoid object suddenly broke into the edge of the range illuminated by the red light and entered the poplar's field of vision, and according to his previous habits, his first reaction must have been: "What is this?"
But right now, under the influence of the ability [Empathy], his first reaction was: "Keep your distance, defend yourself, identify friend and foe, gather information, and find weaknesses." ”
The energy armor naturally unfolded, the wooden knife was held in his hand and aimed at the comer, and the primordial magic was also active, ready to attack at any time.
"The object is about three meters away from me, it is within a dangerous distance, it should be the first time to strengthen the defense, prepare to dodge, the object is humanoid and has the ability to move, it is presumed to be a creature, 3.1 meters tall, 4.3 meters of arm span, no energy reaction, it is inferred that the attack method is a simple physical attack using physical advantages·······" Then, naturally, he used the information he knew so far to conduct a detailed analysis of the comer.
This is the standard reaction of federation operators when faced with the unknown.
"It seems that Mo Qiushui is also experienced. Sensing what was going on in his head at the moment, Poplar secretly smacked his tongue.
Soon the mystery was revealed, and the figure was completely exposed to the red light, and it was a desire to open its mouth and let out a silent roar, waving its arms and rushing towards the poplar.
The poplar tree, who had been prepared, took a sharp step back to the right, dodged the swing of his arm, and then leaned forward, his hand raised and fell, and the wooden knife carrying the power of faith slashed at the ribs of desire, piercing it with a knife.
The desire came to an abrupt halt.
With the wooden knife as the center, the void on the body of the desire began to spread, and soon spread all over the body, turning into a puddle of black liquid and disintegrating into the ground and disappearing.
"The intensity of this attack is not high, it is not enough to have a killing effect on the desire to be killed, this matter must be strange, and we need to be vigilant. Yang Shu looked at this scene, not smug, but secretly reminded himself.
If it was in normal times, he would definitely have to brag about it again to earn a little middle and two value by the way, but Mo Qiushui didn't think so.
Subsequently, the frequency of wanting to haunt each other became higher and higher, as if it was stopping the poplar's progress, but it was also a blow to collapse, and it seemed to tempt him into a trap.
So he stopped and tried to walk backwards.
As soon as he took two steps, two more desires entered his field of vision, like him rushing, this time it was not like the previous posture of waving his arms like a child fighting, but he pressed his body low, his arms were transformed into sharp blades, with a solemn aura, which came in an instant.
Ordinary people in this situation, either block or dodge, Mo Qiushui is no exception, under the influence of [empathy], Yang Shu also intends to take such an action, his feet move back, the horizontal knife in front of him, ready to defend.
However, he interrupted the effect of [empathy], and Poplar's way of thinking returned to its original trajectory, the scenery in his eyes began to distort, and his brain began to dizzy.
"Ordinary people block or dodge when faced with danger, but I'm different. A mysterious smile appeared on his lips, "I'll turn around!"
He turned, turned his back to the two desires that were rushing towards him, and took a half-step with a gesture.
There is no doubt that he was hit by two desires at the same time, but the originally powerful attack hit his body suddenly lost its strength, like a coquettish girl punching you in the chest, just with some itching.
The primordial magic in his body fluctuated reflexively, releasing a shockwave that was about as powerful as blowing a breath.
Behind him, the two of them collapsed in response, turning into two pools of liquid and melting into the ground, disappearing.
"With this kind of acting, you will lose money when you go out and slander people. Before reopening [Empathy], Yang Shu seized the opportunity to complain.
Medium two +30
After the opening of [Empathy], he returned to Mo Qiushui's way of thinking, a qualified federation agent.
"From the current situation, it can be surmised that these desires are deliberately leading me to move towards the Border, so what is the motive?" he pondered calmly, examining his belongings before finally fixing his gaze on the ruby and the key.
"The most suspicious item is this ruby, which can emit darkness, illuminate in this environment of light and dark, and can also guide the direction, locate and teleport ······" He raised his eyes to look at the red light, which spread forward and extended to the inside of the sphere of the Border, "And obviously, it has some kind of special connection with the Border, and there is also this key, which played a vital role as a prop to open the ruby, but it has been useless since then." ”
"It's suspicious. ”
Probably because he hadn't moved for too long, two more lusters appeared behind him, waiting for an opportunity to attack, apparently trying to coerce Poplar to move on.
"Heh," Mo Qiushui's trademark wry smile appeared on his face, and he raised his feet and slowly moved forward, but he didn't stop thinking.
Sure enough, seeing that the poplar tree continued to advance, he retreated into the darkness and no longer stayed on the sidelines.
As he walked, he looked at the key in his hand, the shape of the key did not change much, the main body of the gold texture, the embellishment of precious stones, and the black gemstone in the shape of a skeleton as a mosaic.
"The corners of this skeleton's mouth seem to have risen a little more, what does that mean?" he keenly captured.
The distance between him and the prison was getting closer and closer, and looking at the pitch-black sphere that was getting bigger and bigger, a sense of familiarity suddenly rose in his heart.
"Actually, the color of this thing looks ······ Quite similar to this skeleton?" he found that there was an indescribable resemblance between the Border Prison and the Black Jewel on the Key.
But he was always missing some inspiration and couldn't figure out the connection.
"Why don't I try Chu Qiu's thinking?" Yang Shu remembered his [Empathy] ability and the two remaining opportunities to use it, and decided to give it a try.
"Activate [Empathy], simulate the object, Chu Qiu. ”
His vision began to blur, light and shadow began to twist, signaling that the ability was in effect, and the way he looked at things changed.
So the question arises again, does Yang Shu know Chu Qiu?
"Hmph, that kind of brainless violent woman, of course I know her. At first, Poplar thought confidently, but as the simulation progressed, his mind changed.
"She is 1.7 meters tall, weighs 52KG, her birthday is July 2nd, she likes autumn, she doesn't like summer, she likes to eat ice cream, but she can only eat it once a month in order to maintain her physical fitness······" He thought back to the things about Chu Qiu, he knew many things, but these things actually had nothing to do with a person's true understanding.
Why is she happy, why is she sad, why is she fighting, why is she born, how does she see the world, how does she treat people's hearts?
When she mentioned her parents, what kind of sadness did she have, "They are long gone"?
She always treated Chu Bai with a look of disgust and impatience, but why did she look at his departing back and cry silently?
"I don't know," in Yang Shu's heart, Chu Qiu's originally clear image gradually blurred, "I'm really careless." ”
The vision in his eyes returned to stability, the process of [empathy] was over, and in his eyes, the world returned to the way it was when [empathy] was not activated, looking up was a sphere so big that people couldn't tell the shape, and on the opposite side was the border prison, surrounded by chaotic darkness, unable to distinguish between front and back, left and right, and he was like a headless fly.
"It seems that the [Empathy] launch has failed, I really don't know Chu Qiu at all. He shrugged helplessly, "Then let's use my train of thought to solve the problem." ”
"Perhaps, it's not the ruby that sends out the darkness, it's the Border. He guessed casually.
In this world of inverted light and shadow, a red light connects the ruby and the inky black prison, so in the real world, it is conceivable that a dark light connects the two.
"Well, it feels like the prison is extracting the power inside the ruby······" He touched his chin and said inadvertently, "Well, that seems reasonable, huh?"
"Positioning, teleportation, spatial attributes?" he suddenly remembered something important, "This thing is very similar to the Zeus Stone that Chu Qiu said!"
He vaguely remembered that at dusk, Chu Qiu was explaining some common sense of the supernatural world with a straight face in the activity room, among which the "Zeus Stone" was mentioned, but at that time, it was ······
"I think I'm sleeping, huh?" he scratched his head, a little embarrassed.
Behind him, a chill struck him, and a pitch-black arm reached out from behind him, turning into a sharp knife and resting it around his neck.
In addition, there are all kinds of weapons made from the body of the desire to be aimed at all parts of his body.
A scalpel aimed at the back of the heart, an electric drill in the center of the eyebrows, a hammer in the back of the head, and scissors in the lower body.
The expression of the desire is also completely different from before, and the desire that appeared before was often with its mouth wide open and constantly roaring, as if it was mentally retarded, but now its lips were tightly closed, and there was no word, only indifferent killing intent.
Looking at the various weapons, especially the scissors, Yang Shu felt a strong sense of crisis.
He turned his head and said to the [Book of Listening], who had not appeared for a long time, "It has been observed that the desire has the ability to transform weapons, and the weapons that are conjured are related to the identity of the deceased. ”
Then, like a prisoner about to be beheaded at noon, he was escorted by a large group of desires, and continued to advance in the direction of the border prison.
······
In Chu Qiu's eyes, this world was simple, there was only one dark road, leading to the front, and in front of him was the black ball of light that Yang Shu called the "Border Prison".
The dusty path under her feet began to flicker, and her face showed joy: "It's coming soon!"
