Fog of Loss.

This is really not an unfamiliar word to Aono.

Whether it's in the watch world or in the Lost Lands, Aono has dealt with it.

Even the extraordinary skills that he has obtained have become a very important non-physical attack method in addition to Aono.

Before Aono arrived at the scene, he realized this from the familiarity and intimacy.

It's just that I got it from Ida Ryoma's mouth.

"It's it again."

Aono looked out to sea.

Even after he spoke, most of the tourists were subconsciously following his instructions and staying away from the sea, but there were still some people who stayed in the sea.

It's not that they don't know the danger of the situation, it's that their family or friends have sunk under the surface of the sea and never reappeared.

It is those people who do not want to leave.

The reason why I say "again" is because in the course of a month, the fog of Lost has appeared more than once.

In fact, this phenomenon has been happening in the vicinity of Tokyo and even in half of Japan.

Aono asked Rin Tamagawa.

only to learn that when she accidentally went to the Lost Land, she also encountered a black fog.

Obviously, Rin Tamagawa was lucky that she was not digested and absorbed directly in the Lost Mist.

"Is it below the surface of the sea?"

Kanda Yukie's gaze locked on the deep waters.

On the surface, the sea is calm and the sea breeze blows normally.

But the unique smell in the air cannot be ignored!

She now understood how Aono had become aware of the anomaly on the edge of her private beach, and she was secretly amazed that she could detect the anomaly at such a distance, with the faint influence of the seawater.

Ida Ryoma nodded heavily: "That's right. ”

"By the way, where is Sister Liumei?"

The little girl suddenly realized this, and turned her head to look on the beach, but she could not find the iceberg beauty.

"She's already down there."

Ida Ryoma pointed to a sea area that exuded a faint chill.

The temperature of the sea in that area is much lower than that of the surrounding circle, which is the embodiment of Hino Rumiko's extraordinary ability.

"I'm not good at handling this kind of thing, so she asked me to evacuate the crowd on the coast."

Ida Ryoma's honest and honest face rarely showed a little worry and shame.

It's not that he doesn't want to go down and help, but he really can't help!

The wateriness of Ida Ryoma is not too good, and he has no strength, and he can't exert himself under the surface of the sea!

"Aono-kun, let's go and help."

As a descendant of Rumiko Hino, Yukie Kanda has always been taken care of by Rumiko, and now she must be worried about her safety.

At this time, Aono's attention was attracted by an ordinary boy near the sea.

"Yosuke Hirata."

Aono frowned, the face in his sight was somewhat familiar, not very good-looking, not ugly, the kind that should not be recognized when thrown into the sea of people.

But now, why do you see him at a glance?

Yosuke Hirata looked dazed, and his writing was full of panic.

One of his classmates disappeared in the sea.

Any normal high school boy will probably have this expression in the face of this sudden situation.

Kanda Yukie didn't know why, and his heart became more and more anxious.

But just stared at Aono, waiting for his reply.

After observing for a while, Aono still made no new discoveries.

Simply put the distracting thoughts behind for the time being.

Get on the motorboat again and take Kanda Yukie to the sea where Rumiko Hino is.

His instincts told him that it was never a wise choice to sink into the sea.

The closer we got closer, the chill in the sea was even worse, as if it was about to freeze the sea around it.

It can be seen that Rumiko Hino's state at the moment is not optimistic.

"I'll go into the water first, and if you don't come out in three minutes, you can dive down with you."

Aono instructed Yukie Kanda.

"Remember, wrap a portion of the air with yin energy."

"yes, I see."

Kanda Yukie nodded vigorously.

"Whew-"

Aono took a deep breath and filled his lungs with fresh oxygen.

"Wow!" A bang.

He plunged into the sea.

The first thing I felt was the sea around me.

The touch of the sea is very strange.

It's more viscous than ever, slightly corrosive, and cold.

But none of this is a problem for Aono.

Under the sea, Aono held his breath and opened his eyes.

What appeared before his eyes was a completely strange world.

The sea water is blue-black.

The Lost Mist, mixed with the sea, formed this strange color.

The sun's rays, refracted and scattered by seawater, form a psychedelic halo.

What's even more weird is that fog can exist in water!

It is clearly a gaseous substance, but in the seawater, it still presents that diffuse and expanding state.

Visibility is not high.

The depth of the sea is much deeper than Aono expected.

You know, this is a shallow beach, or a place for tourists to go into the water, and the depth should not exceed five or six meters - beyond this limit, there are many more dangers and variables.

But in Aono's estimates, the sea water here is at least tens of meters deep!

Compared with the deep sea where kilometers are often carried out, it is naturally very shallow, but for ordinary people, only people wearing professional equipment dare to dive to this depth.

In the sea water, there was a young girl.

She struggled in the water, trying to swim up, break through the surface and get fresh air.

But the struggle seemed futile.

No matter how hard she stroked her arms and swung her legs, the distance between her and the sea would only get farther and farther.

The oxygen in the chest cavity is running out.

There was a dull pain in her lungs that made her want to open her mouth.

But the girl knew that once she really did it, it was really not far from death!

Heavy water pressure on the girl's body.

Movements become sluggish and stiff.

'Am I going to die here?' ’

The girl couldn't help but think, a look of despair on her face.

"Huh!"

But now, she saw a face that didn't look like a human face.

'Am I dreaming?' ’

Aono waved the gray stick in his hand.

"Bang"!

His target, of course, would not be the poor girl, but behind her, a void monster with fangs.

And before Aono hit it, the sharp teeth would not be more than ten centimeters away from the girl's body.

It's strange to say.

Aono had thought that the gray stick would lose its attack power in the sea - this thing was too heavy, and it was not impossible to sink directly into the sea.

The strength and activity of the human body in the seawater will be greatly affected, and Aono is no exception.

But I didn't expect that under the surface of the sea, the stick was unusually light and flexible, and it was not heavy on land at all.

It's easier to be controlled by Aono.

The unexpected change played an unexpected role at this moment.

If the original combat power of Qingye was only thirty percent underwater, then now it has recovered to at least sixty percent!

The gray monster was directly scattered.

But no prompts appear on the panel.

Qing Ye knows it.

It was the old trick of the Lost Mist, a monster born of the girl's fear.

Seeing that the girl's face was purple and blue, Aono quickly supported her body and swam up.

But at this moment, a petite figure also dived down.

It is Kanda Yuki-e.

'Three minutes, so fast?' ’

Aono thought about it and noticed something unusual.

It seems that the time here is also different from outside.

There is a large spherical space next to Kanda Yuki-e, which isolates the seawater.

It's the size of a small room.

Her hair and clothes were not wet.

This is the use of a special yin qi in her body.

From the simple movement of objects at the beginning, to the Yin Binding Technique, and now to the present, Kanda Yukie has not only stood still, but has made great progress.

Looking at the barrier formed by the yin qi, Qing Ye had the idea of wanting to take a bite, but fortunately he held back.

A space filled with air, enveloping Aono in it, and the girl was saved.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem!"

After coughing up a few mouthfuls of water, the young girl woke up leisurely.

"Where is this?"

Looking at the sea around her, she asked in confusion.

Even though it's still under the surface of the sea, you can still breathe fresh air, can you say?

"Am I dead?"

The girl's expression was sad, and she was about to cry when she saw it.

But out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Aono.

His eyes were glazed, and his tears were held back again.

If you want to maintain a ladylike demeanor, you don't know whether to cry or not.

Kanda Yukie: ""

I knew it was going to be like this. ’

Aono didn't pay attention to the girl's gaze, and looked at the sea above him.

The light shone overhead, but it didn't feel warm at all.

He tentatively stretched out his hand, but the distance between him and the sea did not decrease at all, as if he could not touch it.

Aono concluded.

"We're stuck here."

"Seems like so."

Kanda Yukie also used Yin Qi as a test and found that Yin Qi could not pass through the thin plane.

To put it simply, the fog of the Lost mixed with the sea creates an enclosed space bounded by the sea.

If you are only half in the sea and your head is on the surface, it will not be affected.

But once they are all submerged in the water, they will not be able to touch the surface of the sea, let alone get out of it, just like at this time.

If it weren't for Kanda Yukie's yin qi that could carry a lot of air to dive underwater, the situation would have been really urgent.

"Aono-kun"

Kanda Yukie was a little nervous in her heart, but the thought of having Aono by her side made her feel a lot more relieved.

"What do we do now?"

"Let's find Miss Hino first."

Aono turned and looked into the bottomless depths.

In the deep silence of the water, the strange atmosphere is quietly spreading.

Except for the Fog of Loss.

There must be other dangers lurking here.
