Chapter 3 You chase me, you catch up with me
When Carey's consciousness was overwhelmed by the darkness again, suddenly a spirit, as if waking up from a dream.
He felt as if he was no longer in a cave, there was no sound of ticking water, and he walked here with the soft touch of stepping on the sand.
It was pitch black all around, but he could see his body clearly.
In a trance, he noticed that there was suddenly an extra ball of light not far away.
"Where the hell am I?" muttered to himself, still involuntarily walking towards the ball of light.
An illusory light blue Rubik's Cube, with no substance, just quietly suspended in mid-air.
Carey subconsciously reached out and touched it, and the Rubik's Cube suddenly emitted light and shook his eyes white.
After his eyes adjusted for a moment, an interface appeared out of thin air in front of his eyes.
"Is this a holographic projection? Awesome...... Is there already this kind of technology in this world? It doesn't seem to be as backward as it can be remembered!" Carey couldn't help but sigh, and looked around again, seeing that there was still no one responding to him.
After the initial exclamation, he swiped the screen and began to take a closer look.
However, except for the first and last columns, which are bright, the rest of the content is hazy and cannot be seen.
"Hmm...... Looks like this is your own system, right? There's a list in such a big space?" Carey couldn't help but spit again.
After a cursory look, he flipped to the top column again.
"Equipment?"
The words resembled the mysterious symbols used by Dinah, but Carey seemed to understand the meaning of the runes at this moment.
It was a decent look of black armor, much like the one I saw myself wearing in my memory.
At least from the projection, as he reached out to hold the armor, the illusory image suddenly faded away, replaced by a series of mysterious runes heading straight for his brain.
Before Carey could react, he felt as if his brain was about to explode, and wave after wave was pounding his nerves.
"Ahh
......
"Carey, Carey!" Dinah shook Carrie as she called softly, not daring to make too much noise.
The entrance to the cave had been sealed by her, but Carey's scream of pain had already attracted the lost who wandered nearby.
"How can this be? His source texts were silent before, why did they all suddenly recover!" Dinah looked at her with her head on the ground and screamed at Kyrie with her head in her arms.
At this time, his whole body was surrounded by source texts, constantly emitting a pale blue light, but these source texts were like chains that demanded his life and dragged him into the abyss again.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Dinah suddenly looked at the entrance of the cave, and the violent knocking made the previously sealed hole tremble.
Her brow furrowed tightly, and she stared at the hole for a few seconds, weighed it up, gritted her teeth slightly, and slowly took a few steps back.
"I'm sorry!"
Dinah silently apologized inwardly, turned around and walked deeper into the cave.
The cave had been sealed off by Dinah in the early days, and she could be sure that there were no dangerous passages, and that she would not be in danger if she waited quietly for the night.
Before she could take a few steps, Dinah hesitated again and stopped, taking out a glowing hedron smaller than a fingernail from the pocket of her tattered clothes.
"Just as a thank you for today's deliciousness, this source stone can help you alleviate some of your pain. Dinah placed the little hedron on the ground and walked deeper without hesitation.
The sound of percussion is getting denser and denser!
"WhewโI feel like I'm going to die!" Suddenly Carey held his head and muttered to himself in a somewhat drowsy voice.
Then the source text on his body suddenly appeared, echoing with the source stone on the ground, and some of the source text was immediately attracted by the source stone, and the spar suddenly exploded, forming a bracer on Kairi's right hand.
"Boom!" The stone at the entrance of the cave suddenly cracked, and just as he came back to his senses, Carey, who had no idea of the outside world, was startled by this scene.
Then a black bear with red eyes roared violently, and it was at least twice as large as Carey remembered.
He didn't have time to think about why he was able to see the hole in the dark, but the knee-jerk reaction in his mind was to run!
"Dinah, let's go...... Eh, Dinah?" Carey looked at where Dinah had been, then was stunned to see that she was scurrying deeper into the cave.
"What's it called! Don't go yet!" Dinah replied angrily.
The black bear is huge, but it doesn't feel as heavy as it should be when it sprints, and it is dexterous like a cheetah!
Fortunately, Carey's body is relatively strong, and Dinah's arm keeps surging, so that the two of them still have the capital to deal with the black bear chasing behind them.
Suddenly, the two of them stopped completely, and in Carey's puzzled expression, Dinah lowered her head and said, "This is the entrance to the cave behind me, I can feel the lost people outside, do you want to open it?"
"It's so exciting!"
Carey roared inwardly, but still smiled wryly, "Is there any other way?"
Dinah shook her head at first, then nodded and said, "At this time, I very much agree with what your human queen Emily III said, and it is never wrong to always remember to leave yourself a way out." โ
"Who is that? I don't remember, Elmiri seems to be the surname of the Star Spirit Royal?"
Carey's heart was pounding, but looking at Dinah's calm expression, he took a deep breath again and said, "Yes, so do you have any good ideas?"
Dinah wanted to speak and stopped: "You go to be the bait, as long as you can entangle the black bear for ten seconds......"
Carey was silent for a moment, he felt like he was going to be sat to death, and three seconds was the limit.
"Boom!"
Carey felt that the fat bear was getting closer and closer, and after hesitating to estimate that he could only become a bait, he was silent for a while, and his tone couldn't help but increase: "Specific plan!"
"I prepared the summoning ritual of the two forest guards before, which can be activated as long as the source stone is injected, and with their protection, it is enough for us to escape from here!" Dinah's expression was still calm, but the speed of her speech was noticeably quicker.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a muffled sound startled both of them at the same time, and the black bear was already close to the two of them!
Dinah took a deep breath, pulled out the knife that she had been holding all along, and said: "Forget it, I'll delay, you go to activate, remember to keep running forward after going out, there is a giant tree engraved with source text a hundred steps away, put it in it, and we can survive."
And you fail, we die, understand?"
After making up her mind, Dinah's right hand flickered and handed him an egg-sized spar and a ...... Huh?
It's a bit heavy to start with, so you can only do a simple swing.
Carey suddenly felt that the air was circulating, and it was not so stuffy.
Carey looked at Dinah's back and saw her pull out a gem-encrusted knife, and the pale red light on the knife swirled, and the gem shone brightly.
With extremely skillful movements, she quickly carved a string of source texts on the stone wall blocking the black bear, and then stabbed into the stone wall with a knife.
The stone wall shattered suddenly, and at the same time, the black bear roared in pain.
"Not yet!" Dinah yelled angrily when she saw that Carey was still in a daze.
