Chapter Ninety-Six: The Dark Side
"So there's only one way we have to go over it?" Chie caught up with Sakuruma and hurriedly held her somewhat weak body. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
It's not too late in time, there are Qiancao and Mu Fengye's ice crystal scales illuminating, and they can also travel quickly at night, there are marks left by Gao Zhi along the way, although the wall cannot be destroyed, he still smashes a small crack on the ground with a knife from time to time to mark which fork in the road they have gone, those cracks are not very big, and you have to be extremely serious to discover its existence.
"It has begun, the war between the two sides ......"
Camp Rozt, it was late at night, Fika didn't stop the output of his abilities, if that was the case, it would take a lot of effort to find Takagi's position again, and the best time was when they were ready to stop and rest, when they were at the same time as they were retrieving the pieces.
"Fika, do you remember the girl named Sakuruma Aizuki?" Rozter recalled the girl he had seen in the video before, if Aroh was serious, few people would be able to survive from his men, so he was particularly impressed by the name, and he had heard the surname Sakuruma when he was in school, but he vaguely remembered that she was a very ordinary girl when she was making the introduction.
"That girl doesn't seem to have anything to do with anyone, even if you let me remember it too hard now, but there is such a person. Fika wasn't quite sure what kind of person Sakuruma was seeing at the time.
"Sakurama Aizuki...... We hadn't seen her when we first met under the Celestial Tree, had we?" Claude had never seen a girl with such long silver hair in his memory, and he didn't dare say that his spirit and memory had been strained at school, at least since he came into this world.
"Rozt. Iroh interrupted Claude and looked coldly at Rozt, "I have a request. ā
"What requirements?"
"If you meet Sakuruma Aizuki again and give her to me, today's battle has not yet been decided. ā
Rhozt was not interested in paying attention to Eloh's request, besides, Sakurama was not too much of a threat to him, and it was clear from the images that came that she did not take advantage of the battle with Eloh at all, and if she had not used some tricks to escape, she would have died under Iro's sword by now.
"Whatever you want, my target is only Mu Fengye and Kenichiro Takagi, these two people will definitely not survive. ā
ā¦ā¦
Takagi's team marched for two hours before coming to a halt, and they had not encountered a dead end so far, suggesting that at least they were on track.
"That...... Takagi-san, I want to ......" Ibella found Takagi with a twist, and she didn't have any time all day, but after all, people are in a hurry, her face is already red, it's dark everywhere, the atmosphere is extremely depressing, and she doesn't dare to leave the team alone as a girl.
Takagi didn't seem to be such an unreasonable person, and after looking around, all the girls had no desire to accompany Ibera, and at this moment, a person's voice suddenly came from the corner.
"Ibera-san, if you don't mind, I'll go with you. ā
"Vera?" Gao Zhi raised his head and glanced at him, Vera rarely took the initiative to ask for something, but he seemed to have been holding back for a long time, so he didn't suspect anything, "Forget it, you two just be careful, fortunately, the road was safe when we came." ā
The two of them left the camp with a torch, and Ibella was grateful that Vera would come out at such a juncture to solve her urgent needs, and this morning he had obviously lost his temper at his companion, but he didn't seem to be such a vengeful person.
"Ibela-san, there are some things I want to tell you. ā
"Huh, what's the matter?"
"I'm sorry about Stella-san, and I apologize for Jorym-san's words, he shouldn't have said that about your friend. Vera walked ahead with a torch in hand, and had inadvertently turned two or three corners in the conversation with Ibera.
Ibera didn't pay attention to the road under her feet at all, but said with some guilt: "It's okay, I was really impulsive at the time, Stella is really a very good girl except for being a little timid, and she can ......"
"In that case, let's live with her, Ibela-san. ā
"Well, yes. Only then did Ibella care about the distance from the camp, and took Vera's shoulders and asked, "Well, Vera-san, have we gone a little too far?" ā
"Eh? Seems like yes, then here it is, I won't watch it. Vera turned around and went to the other side of the corner.
After a few minutes, Ibella relaxed a lot, and her body is now extremely comfortable after holding it all day.
"Vera-san, thank you for coming with me, let's go back. ā
"Well, okay. Vera seems to have been waiting for a long time, and the torch in his hand feels like it's about to go out, and it looks like he's going to have to get back to the camp soon," the ...... Ibela-san, in fact, I ...... I forgot that I came from that fork in the road......"
Ibera wasn't very nervous when she heard this, there were two paths here, and Takashi had made a mark on the ground when he came, as long as he found it......
"Why did the markers become two?!" Ibera panicked, the two rifts looked similar, and they were both smashed with knives, so that it was impossible to discern which one was the way back.
"Doesn't Ibera-san remember?"
"Because I patronize and chat with you, so ......"
Vera sighed in frustration, and a method suddenly flashed through his mind, he handed the torch to Ibera, and said, "Ibera-san, you take the torch and walk this way, I will go this way, and in five minutes if you don't see the team, you will come back here, and if you encounter a fork in the road, you will also come back." ā
Ibera's heart was now in a mess, and she could only listen to Vera's advice: "If you give me the torch, are you okay?"
"It's okay, don't worry, it's only five minutes anyway, and I'll be back soon no matter what happens. Vera smiled and walked into the fork in the road on the left, and when Ibera saw Vera disappear into the stone wall, she also dared to walk to the right passage.
Vera ran slowly with his slow steps, and a strange smile suddenly appeared on his face, when he brought Ibella here before, he turned at least three times, and each bend had two forks, adding up to six, if he couldn't remember the way back, he would only be trapped here!
"Ibela-san, I seem to see the previous me from you...... Giggle~"
The torch in Ibera's hand was quickly extinguished, and she had no choice but to continue walking in the dark, she remembered Vera's words, whether it was five minutes later or when she encountered a fork in the road, she had to go back to the previous fork, and it was because of these words that she had some courage to keep going.
A minute later, Ibella found a fork in the road not far ahead, and now only three minutes later, if he goes back, he will have to wait for Vera, but he probably won't leave himself here and leave alone.
Back at the fork in the road, it was so quiet and eerie, the labyrinth without light was eerie everywhere, and Ibella could only pray for Vera to appear soon, she kept counting the numbers in her mind, and when she counted to the two hundred and ninety-eighth seconds, Vera had not yet appeared in the fork in the road.
"Is it a little slower to come back?" Ibera walked into the fork in the road on the left with hope, ready to meet Vera as she returned.
After a long time, Ibera's breathing began to become more frequent, her tears were already reaching her eyes, and Vera, who she had been expecting, did not return as promised.
"Why is this happening......" Ibera stopped suddenly, staring at the fork in the road ahead.
Vera wanted to kill herself, and Ibella became more and more convinced of the idea, and he deliberately went around the road so many times, using words to attract his attention, all in order to lead himself to this place and abandon it.
"Bastard!"
With tears in her eyes, Ibella chose a fork in the road and walked in, Vera must have remembered the way she came before, why did she believe him so easily?!
"Kawada, Takagi, did anyone hear!" Ibera shouted in a hoarse voice as she strode forward, but there was nothing but her own echo, no hope in the darkness, only the cry of her soul and the cry of helplessness.
"Anyone?!"
"Please, Vera, I don't want to die here!"
"Please, come back soon......"
Despair seemed to swallow up the voice, and Ibella felt nothing but an endless void, nothing seemed to exist in front of her, and only the same stone walls on both sides awaited her, and death that belonged only to her.
"Help Me ......"
"Whew-"
A low gasp made the hairs stand on end all over Ibera's body, as if something was approaching her step by step, the ground trembled, and the air around her was as silent as death.
āā¦ā¦ā
"I don't want to die yet......"
"Uhhhh
Screams resounded through the labyrinth, but the layers of stone walls had long since swallowed her voice away, and not even the cries for help could reach the camp.
It was late at night, and when Vera returned to the camp, Takashi was the only one waiting for him.
Seeing that Vera came back alone, Gao Zhi was a little curious, and kept looking behind him: "What about Ibela?"
Vera frowned, tilted her head and asked, "Isn't Ibera-san supposed to be back a long time ago?"
Gao Zhi began to tremble when he heard this, his eyes were full of disbelief, he thought that it was impossible for Vera to do anything excessive, I am afraid that Ibela would have been more than lucky: "Hey...... What are you talking about......"
