139 Shadows of the Abyss

……………… 139, Abyss Shadow ........................

The dark shadows were dull in the dark, and the dim light at the head of the bed stopped in front of the wide bed where Qiu Zhi was, and there was no trace of it, as if there was an invisible barrier in the middle.

The extremely cold breath came towards the autumn words, and the color of the pendant on her chest became thicker, green like a pool of late autumn cold pool, and the warm feeling spread along her chest to her whole body, warming the blood that was about to be frozen. In June, even at midnight, the temperature of the Purple Moon Star is still very high, where does this cold come from?

Qiu Ci's eyes widened suddenly, and the only remaining trace of sleepiness disappeared, and the first reaction in his heart was that the demons had come to the door.

Ah Pu in the standby was also awakened, and before he could complain, the data on the screen of the brain surged out, and after a while, he shouted in panic: "Girl, hurry, stop it, don't let it form!" ”

A darker shadow slowly flowed in the darkness, gradually gathering and evolving into the shape of a lump of softness.

Qiu Ci heard Apu's exclamation, and immediately took out the pocket ray gun under the pillow, Apu shouted in a hurry: "Don't use the ray gun, it's useless to it, ask that little girl to use poison." ”

"Ah Qing." Qiu Ci shouted, he didn't have time to think about it and chose to believe in Ah Pu, which could make him, who has always been arrogant and unserious, afraid of being like this, obviously not an ordinary opponent.

"Bang."

The door was pushed open, and under the light in the living room, Qiu Shi could see clearly that Qiu Yeqing was standing at the door in pajamas, and the strange thing was that the light in the living room could not shine into the room.

Qiu Yeqing looked at the darkness sandwiched between the bedside lamp and the living room lamp, like two incompatible worlds interspersed together, her eyes shrank slightly, and before she could react, she heard Qiu Ci say in her ear: "Poison." ”

After a brief pause, the pale blue mark on Akiba's forehead surfaced, and a vague green qi floated into this dark space.

"Boom ......" made a small sound in the dark, like a very painful ****, and like an unconscious call, the shadows in the darkness struggled, and the fast-forming shape melted like ice and snow.

Qiu Ci listened to the creeps, what kind of creature is this, if it is the revenge of the demon clan, she is afraid that she will not even be able to sleep well in the future.

"Boom ......" seemed to be very unwilling, the voice suddenly increased, and the dark space began to tremble, faintly moving slowly in the direction of the autumn words. There is more green smoke wafting from the forehead of Autumn Leaf Green, constantly blending into the black.

Obviously there was no sound, but Qiu Ci seemed to hear a sound of breaking silk, and the entire dark space exploded silently, and was dispersed by the light, disappearing without a trace.

Qiu Ci turned on the lights, and then got out of bed to check, and the room was empty. She felt a pang of anxiety in her heart, the old people often say that there are ghosts and ghosts in the world, how similar are the descriptions of shadows and ghosts in the dark?

Ah Pu breathed a long sigh of relief, and sighed in her mind in fear: "It's okay, it's okay, it's not formed, otherwise it will be troublesome." ”

Qiu Yeqing ran over from the door, and the cyan mark on his forehead was like a fierce snake that chose to devour, becoming more and more vivid under the lamp. Her eyes were confused, and she looked at Qiu Ci without speaking.

"Ahu, what is this?" Qiu Ci stroked Qiu Yeqing's face and asked Ah Pu. Listening to Agui's tone, he seemed to know this kind of thing.

Ah Pu sighed and said distressedly: "This thing is called the Abyss Shadow, it is a creature of another time and space, and it can only appear in dark places. In the abyss, it is the lowest existence, and has always been used as a spy in the abyss. ”

"The abyss?"

"You think it's another galaxy." Ah Pu didn't bother to explain, and said hurriedly: "This planet can't stay, there are already abyss shadows appearing here, it must be the breath of flowing fire that has been discovered by them." ”

"What kind of abyssal creature is the mysterious enemy you're talking about?"

Ah Pu was silent for a long time, and after hesitating for a while, he said: "I'm not sure, my memory chip is damaged, and the database hasn't been fully restored, I only know that this thing is called the shadow of the abyss." But it must be for the flow of fire, otherwise it won't appear in your room, fortunately, this little girl uses poison, there is no **** out of the flow of fire, and the shadow of the abyss has not been formed, if you can't see us, otherwise it will be troublesome. ”

There was a strange shadow tonight, and Qiu Ci didn't dare to sleep alone, so he simply hugged Qiu Yeqing on the bed and slept with her. It's not that she's afraid of the shadows of the abyss, but she doesn't know how to deal with such strange creatures. Ah Pu asked her not to use the flowing fire, and the ray gun was useless against it, so she could only rely on the poison of Akiba Qing's time to temporarily ward off the enemy.

Stayed up until dawn, Qiu Ci woke up and calmed down, what about the creatures he had never seen, even the demon king was sold by her as goods, what are the other things? As long as the Flowing Fire can obtain the Divine Tear Stone, you can make a short-term space jump, and you will be more sure whether to fight or flee at that time.

Qiu Ji immediately went to visit Josu, she had thought that she could hold out for a long time, and she could wait until everything was ready to go to find the Tear Stone. But the appearance of the shadow of the abyss last night sounded a wake-up call for her, if she didn't improve her ability to flow fire earlier, what awaited her might be the same fate as the previous masters of the flowing fire.

As she expected, the sacred stone in Huo Su's mouth is in the most mysterious national teacher's mansion in the empire, and the national teacher's mansion is the earliest organization in the history of the Dikal Empire, and has been in charge of the empire's sacrifices and prayer ceremonies from ancient times to the present. Legend has it that the priests are messengers of God and possess incredible powers. In the Empire, the priest is a detached figure, equivalent to the status of the three great martial arts masters.

"The National Teacher's Mansion is jointly run by a high priest and thirty-six priests, and each generation of high priests will pass the scepter in their hands to the successor when they die, and the stone inlaid at the top of the scepter is called the sacred stone." Huo Su knew everything and explained to her in detail the origin of the Divine Stone.

The delicate woman in a pale red dress next to him recorded the conversation between the two in a complete way, so that it could be used as evidence of the transaction in the future. Qiu Ci sneered in her heart, noncommittal to Huo Su's pretense of business, she concluded that this volume of video data would never be published, and she could not get the help of the Black Goat Company to force her to complete the contract.

As the largest trading enterprise in the interstellar world, the Black Goat Company has a principle that it will never get involved in the disputes of any forces, so that it can gain a foothold in the four major galaxies. And Huo Su's move was completely on the side of the empire, and the words "I am the great spy of the empire" were written on the door of his head, which was completely inconsistent with the trading principles of the Black Goat Company.

Of course, if someone in the Alliance sells the information of the humanoid mecha, the Black Goat Company can buy it and trade it to the Empire, which does not violate their business principles. But Josu is clearly doing things for the Imperial, which is beyond the bottom line of Black Goat's absolute neutrality.

Since Huo Su wanted to pretend, Qiu Ci simply accompanied him to pretend, and the two formally signed an information sales contract, and left their names respectively, Qiu Ci said goodbye and left, planning to leave Ziyue Star on a shipping spaceship today.

As he left the room, Qiu Ci finally asked, "What is the relationship between Mr. Huo and the empire?" ”

"I'm from the Empire, but ...... It was before joining Black Goat. Josu replied with a smile.

Qiu Ci understood what he meant, once he entered the Black Goat Company, the employees became stateless people, everything was only based on interests, and he would never intervene in any disputes.

After leaving, Qiu Ci went to say goodbye to Bernaldson, this old man seems to be a lot older, the alliance has too many ties for him, not that he can leave in style.

Qiu Ci is not a person who is good at comforting others, and sat with Bernardson for a while, then got up and left. Having lost a good partner and replaced her with the ill-intentioned Huo Su, she was also very depressed, this is an internal matter of the Black Goat Company, and outsiders can't help at all.

After the three of them boarded the shipping spaceship, Ah Pu was in a good mood and sighed happily. Qiu Ci frowned, and said strangely: "Is the shadow of the abyss so terrifying?" ”

"The garbage color of the abyss shadow is not in my eyes at all, even the demon race last time can destroy dozens of shadow creatures at once." Ah Pu said disdainfully.

"And what are you afraid of?" Autumn words are even more curious.

"I'm afraid of the presence behind it." "The Abyssal Shadows are the most numerous and weakest creatures in the Abyss, they are able to melt their bodies into the darkness, and in this way they can move quickly and explore a wide range, and they are pathfinders for other creatures in the Abyss. Once they have explored their target location, they will send the message back to the abyss, and other monsters will follow. ”

Qiu Ci suddenly said: "That's why you didn't let me use the flowing fire, only let Ah Qing make a move, trying to confuse it, so that it mistakenly thought that it had found the wrong target, and other creatures would not follow." ”

"It's not to confuse it, it's to confuse the other shadows of the abyss, which was poisoned by the little girl last night. But the disappearance of the same kind will definitely arouse the suspicion of other abyssal shadows, and they will come to check. Therefore, we must leave the Purple Moon Star as soon as possible, and the abyssal shadows will leave if they can't detect the mark of the flowing fire. ”

"Sigils?"

"Drift Fire has fought these creatures many times before, and there are special marks left by them, and the Abyssal Shadow can sense the location of Driftfire. But don't worry, there are distance restrictions, and it is not easy for these wastes to find us. ”

Qiu Yu was silent, the shadow of the abyss must have been looking for the whereabouts of the flowing fire all over the universe, and one of the monsters happened to be hovering near the Purple Moon Star, and he stayed here so that he would not be aware of the location.

"Ahu, how do you deal with this monster? can't just rely on Ah Qing, the poison of her time consumes her life. ”

Ah Pu was silent for a moment, and said murderously: "Kill, see one and kill another, you can't leave a living mouth, otherwise it will lead to other abyss monsters." I told you that in the past, there were many mecha like Flowing Fire, all because they were found by the shadow of the abyss, and then destroyed by other creatures in the abyss, so you must not be careless. ”

Qiu Ci smiled, this is the way she has always acted, no matter whether she can beat it or not, if she dares to provoke her, she will always pay the price, and she will never be caught, obediently waiting for someone to save or wait for someone to kill.

"Then kill. Ah, I'm getting more and more curious about the people who made you and the fire. ”
