Act Seventy-One: Eyeballs
l9]G . % Ë T )P 2 B5 @ [6MQ Under the canopy, ashes are falling, and on the white pillar not far away, countless ash-covered insects are tangled together, constantly wriggling, a huge gray vortex in the sky is slowly turning, and in the middle, an eyeball is peeking into the world, exuding a malicious light.
Fina opened her eyes and saw that Rosen and Irandall were quietly watching her.
Everything before was like a dream, and after Fina woke up, it had become a little blurry, and she felt a little moist in the corners of her eyes, and reached out to wipe it, only to realize that it was her own tears.
"I'm ......"
She was a little confused, but when she saw the eyeballs in the sky, she was shocked.
"What's going on with that eyeball......"
"I don't know. ”
Rosen said, seeing that Fina seemed to be fine, he also stood up and turned to look at the eyeball in the whirlpool.
The eyeball was exactly the same as in the dream, and now it was obvious that the eyeball was the master of the cave, the monster that could enter the dreams of others.
At this point, Lawson can roughly imagine the ecology of this cave.
The eyeball monster was able to enter the dream realm, causing some creatures that could have broken free to continue to sink, thus becoming the food of those ash bugs, and the ash bugs were isolated from their prey, making it impossible to break free, and at the same time, the eyeball monster was also able to devour the spirit of those people to gain power, which was more like a reciprocal symbiotic ecosystem, with dreams as the main source of energy.
"It's just ......"
Rosen looked up at the eyeball.
"We're still in a dream. ”
"What?"
Irandall was a little surprised, obviously now that he had changed back to his original body, and his strength had reached a normal level, Rosen said that this was still a dream?
"Yes, to be precise, we're lucid dreaming right now. ”
He explained.
"Originally, I didn't realize it, but in Fina's dream just now, I found a detail, that is, dreams always have no beginning...... Like, how did you get to this cave?"
"We don't come from dreams...... Ahh
Irandall was still a little determined, but then he felt a little confused.
She didn't actually know how she got to this cave, and Irandall had been in a dream since the beginning, and it was Lawson who woke him up, and the cave she had discovered, and Fina was the same.
If it hadn't been for Rosen's intervention and they woke up on their own, it would have been the case.
So who and how did they get to the cave in the first place?
"I didn't fall into a dream, but I came here after the fog hit, and I didn't feel any trace of the teleportation spell. ”
What Rosen means is that as a silver rank, he is extremely sensitive to the law, if there is really any existence that can transfer it without him even being aware of it, then the strength of the other party is at least at the level of a legend, after all, even the gold level, if you want to move some hands and feet, it will leave traces.
So there is only one answer, and that is that although Rosen did not fall into the dream of being devoured by the eyeball monster like Randall, he also fell into the dream of entering this cave.
However, this dream is quite real, and it may even be a wonderful scene caused by the accidental existence of a fragment of a plane in the endless abyss.
It's no wonder that this cave is haunted, because this cave may not have existed in the main material plane in the first place.
"So how are we going to get out of this cave?"
Irandall asked, if according to previous experience, it was possible to get out of the dream if it was clear that there was a clear difference between the dream and reality, but now it seems that this dream is something special.
"It's simple, just kill the culprit. ”
Lawson pulled out the Wolf Knight Greatsword from the law space behind him, and the blade pointed directly at the huge eyeball.
Almost at the same time, the eyeball also sensed the oppression emanating from Lawson's place, and the terrified pupils turned to this side, and then, the earth began to shake.
On the nearby pillars, the ash bugs began to move, and soon a sea of bugs was formed, like flowing magma covered with a layer of ash, which was pouring towards Lawson's location from all directions.
"Irandall, you and Fina stay where you are. ”
Lawson pulled out another longsword from the Law Realm and plunged it into the ground.
Buzz –
A shock wave of magic reverberate, forming an impregnable barrier of magic around the three of them.
"I'll come when I go. ”
Rosen said, leaping into the air, and then accelerating sharply, causing a mist to fill the surroundings.
The eyeball saw Lawson coming towards him, and the whirlpool began to spin faster, exuding amazing magic power, condensing into countless thick tentacles, trying to block Lawson's progress.
But Rosen didn't even swing his sword, and went straight forward, and all the tentacles that were wrapped around burned with pale blue flames, hanging down weakly, and turning into ashes and scattering.
From here, Lawson can also see that the strength level of this monster is just an ordinary bronze level, and most of the use of magic power is in terms of mental attacks, and the actual combat is quite weak, presumably due to the fact that most of the time it is protected by those ash bugs.
And the so-called mental attacks of the lower ranks, in Rosen's opinion, are not even tickling.
The sky was actually much lower than it looked, and Lawson soon approached near the eyeball.
Several barriers of magic were breached without much effort, and Lawson came to the front of the eyeball and made eye contact with him.
His eyes had revealed a deep fear and seemed to want to escape, but the power of Lawson's law had turned into chains, imprisoning him tightly.
"It seems to have a bit of a chaotic aura, and it seems that it is also the power of chaos that can have this level of power. ”
Lawson sensed it, then raised the longsword in his hand.
"Just let me see what the essence is. ”
A sword swinged, slashing through the air and reaching the middle of the eyeball.
Puff –
With a muffled sound, the eyeball was completely sliced open, and the sword wind blew away the swirling clouds, revealing the eyeball's body.
It was indeed a huge eyeball, more than fifty yards in diameter, and the spherical eyeball had been cut open by Lawson, and a thick amount of slime flowed out of it, and at first glance, it looked like a hole in the sky.
When the slime flowed to the ground, white smoke immediately rose, and the pillars that were touched by the slime and the ash bugs on them quickly began to dissolve, presumably the slime was quite corrosive.
But Rosen didn't care about the dangerous slime, and flew towards the center of his eyeball, keenly aware of one of the glimmers of light that was about to escape, and he grabbed the thing with an outstretched left hand.
At the same time, the surrounding scenery began to distort, and the sea of ash and insects in the sky disappeared.
In a trance, Lawson saw the rainforest of the six-legged crocodile's burrow again. 1.
