Chapter 37: Beauty and Goblins

When I returned to the cellar, it was still the familiar darkness.

"Be careful." After I stood firm, I gentlemanly supported the wind chimes that followed me down.

"You also want to trouble the big beauty of the wind chimes, use your dazzling fireball technique to take a picture."

"Wow"

It was obvious that the wind chimes didn't grasp my romance, she just nodded, and then took out a bright fireball in her hand, but there was nothing to make me happy.

The Mage's fireball can be held in their hand all the time, which also gives them the option to attack at any time, and after changing to [Daybreak], this fireball can also be charged, thereby increasing the attack range and skill damage.

And this interesting skill setting, at this point, also becomes a perfect lighting tool.

The brightness is more than enough to make the surrounding environment illuminated as if it were daytime, and the rolling flames make everything around you visible.

On the edge of the boxy cellar, turnips, potatoes and cabbage were thrown all over the ground, but they were already in a mess.

"Look over there!"

The wind chimes reminded me of the spot I had explored, and I looked in the direction she was pointing, and it was clear that there was a scratch on the wall over there, and a large eye scratched by a claw.

In the middle of the eye, the delicate paw prints buckle a vivid pupil, and the pupil is not the usual black, but many swirl-like circles.

"What's that?"

"I don't know, I just found out, it was too dark when I came down before, I didn't see it."

"Otherwise, you can go and see."

Wind Chime tilted his head and motioned for me to check on the situation, while he leaned timidly against the wall.

Let her come down with her, she is already very reluctant to go, and it is too difficult to pull her over again.

I nodded, told her not to move where she was, and then picked up the Changhong Sword and walked forward.

Something that was not right was exposed in ample light.

As I started the walk, I could still clearly feel myself getting closer to the wall.

But not long after I walked out, I just felt like I had been walking in place, seeing that the wall was not far ahead, but I couldn't reach it anyway.

"Wind chimes, look at my ......, alas?"

I looked back to see the view of the wind chimes, but I found that the wind chimes were no longer visible, and only the light of the fire that came from nowhere around me was illuminating the vision.

"Xingyu?? Can you hear me? ”

There was a shout behind him.

"Yes!! Can you see me? Since I could still have a normal conversation, I asked her what I had to see what was going on on her side.

"It's been a long time, and you've been standing still." The sound of the wind chimes is a little distant, but it is still real.

Standing still? Does that mean he can see me?

I turned around and walked back a little confused, only to walk out of less than ten meters distance, the wind chimes that had just been lost suddenly appeared out of thin air without any warning, and in the picture that appeared together, the pile of highly recognizable radish and cabbage was also clearly visible.

Looking back at the strange direction I had just looked in again, the walls were still at the same distance from me, unchanged.

At this time, as I continued to walk towards the wind chimes, I could clearly feel that the distance between the wall and me was increasing.

"What's going on? Can't you see me when you walk? Wind Chime asked softly as he grabbed my sleeve with his right hand.

But I didn't have any ideas, so I nodded and answered her question, and then lowered my head and thought.

"By the way, I just said, I'm standing still, right?"

I picked up the few clues I had and tentatively asked for the wind chimes.

"Yes, you kept moving forward when you started to walk that way; But as soon as you get to a certain place, you start to stand still indefinitely, giving people the feeling that you can't walk on that wall. ”

"Is it some kind of enchantment? Can it make people fall into an infinite loop when they enter a certain dividing line? Wind Chime's answer reminded me of my guess.

"Since you can't touch the wall over there to verify it, you might as well think about the meaning of those patterns."

Wind Chime suggested this, holding the fireball in his hand high above his head, allowing the light layer in his vision to illuminate the wall more clearly.

"Why don't you try attacking with a fireball? Let's see if we can hit it. "I can't effectively grasp the current situation, so I can only come up with some bold ideas to put into practice.

Wind Chimes looked at the wall, looked back again, hesitated a little, and did as I was told.

The fireball sprang out as she threw it, streaking across the dark cellar like a meteor in the night sky.

However, the expected explosion scene did not appear, and the strange situation even made the two of us a little confused.

The fireball was just like my trajectory, first approaching the wall quickly and noticeably, and then, at a critical point, it seemed to stand still in the air, and kept spinning and flying.

Even after a while, the galloping fireball still couldn't get close to the wall, and always kept a certain distance from the wall, because the skill had a limited time to exist, and the fireball was extinguished there after a short time.

The cellar was once again pitch black.

"Oh my God! What's the situation? Normally, this fireball can fly more than 40 meters, but are we more than 40 meters away from the wall over there? Wind Chimes was very familiar with their skill mechanics, and after seeing such an incredible phenomenon, they exclaimed in disbelief.

After cooling, the wind chimes re-pinched a fireball and lit up the scene in front of them.

"You wait here for a while, I'll take a look."

Driven by curiosity, Wind Chime overcame her fear of the dark, volunteered to come up with such a plan, and then repeated the route I had just taken, going on her own and letting me keep an eye on her.

And when the wind chimes reached that critical point, they also began to repeat the situation of standing still.

She glanced back at me and called out to me softly, "Xingyu, I can't see you anymore!" You're still there? ”

"Don't be afraid, I can still see you here! You try to throw the fireball out now! ”

The wind chime obediently throws the fireball, but the fireball only repeats the situation until it disappears after the duration is reached.

"This? It's a system vulnerability, right?? How can there be such a thing?? ”

The incredible sound of doubt in my mind reminds me, and I always feel an indescribable awkwardness.

"Xingyu......, where are you......"

However, the darkness made the usually mature and generous wind chime show a weak side, and I comforted her and signaled her not to be afraid, while groping the wall and hurried towards her.

Then, I clearly felt that I had accidentally hit the wind chimes in my arms.

She has a stable personality, but her body is extremely petite, holding it in her hand, like a cute white rabbit.

She didn't push me away, but clung to the corner of my clothes, but still kept a little distance.

The fireball cooled down, and the light returned to the wind chime's hand.

Under the bright sight, the wind chime let go of his hand and took a step back, and the intimacy that I had originally enjoyed was instantly cleared by the distance of this step.

Some of them are still unfinished......

The awkward atmosphere made us not know what to say, and the two of them just returned to the starting point in silence.

"Uncle, are you lying? This cellar is at least 100 meters wide!" After a short pause, I had no clue and began to choose to question my uncle.

"Young man, you're not talking about a cellar, it's a tunnel! Uncle, I'm an ironworker, not a hole digger! And this hole is just an abandoned pit in the village that I wasted, and I didn't dig it. ”

At the mouth of the cellar, there was an angry retort from the uncle.

"Hahahaha...... are you okay?" The wind chimes on the side were amused by such a humorous conversation, and kept beating my shoulders and backs.

"That's right!" My suddenly relieved smile confused the wind chimes.

"What's right? What did you find?" The curious wind chimes kept asking me.

"The idea of solving the problem is right in front of us, and we have already gone off track from the beginning! In the place in front, people will fall into an infinite loop when they walk in, which is understandable; But you can't find an edge in the fireball, so you can't get lost in the fireball, right? ”

However, my explanation of the cloud mountain fog cover only added to the confusion on the face of the wind chime.

"You stand here and don't move, I'll ask you questions in a moment, and you can just answer."

I mischievously sold a pass, and after a simple command to the wind chimes, I walked forward again.

Wind Chime was a little angry, frowning and pushing me: "Go, go, go, go!" ”

Physically and mentally satisfied, I secretly reminisced about the taste of flirting with beautiful women, and repeated the path just now with steps.

It wasn't until the wind chimes prompted me to start walking in place that I turned around and walked back, deliberately slowing down.

When I passed that mysterious tipping point, I took a step, and the wind chimes holding the fireball and the bright cellar mouth on the other side suddenly appeared in front of my eyes.

I took out my rainbow sword and drew a long horizontal line on the ground at my feet to mark it.

Then, I continued to walk back to where the wind chimes were standing, and the wind chimes just looked at me puzzled by the dazzling fireball.

"Now, I'll go again." I walked up to the wind chime and paused, then turned around, facing the wind chime, and began to set off backwards.

After carefully counting my steps, I remembered the mark I had just made.

Dozens of steps backwards, a mark appeared at my feet.

Then I looked at the wind chimes, nodded and motioned for her to continue observing, and then I kept the same trajectory as I had just moved, and stepped back.

The eyes of the wind chimes gradually began to glow with shock.

The backward body suddenly leaned against a wall, and when he turned his hand to touch it, the hard stone texture came from his fingertips.

"Me! Oh, my God! You've met! You hit that wall!! The wind chimes shouted at me in surprise, almost jumping for joy.

This breakthrough made me myself happy, and I touched the wall tightly in my hands, and turned my head with some excitement to see where this scheming wall was sacred.

But the moment I turned my head, the touch in my hand suddenly disappeared, and in front of my eyes, there was still the wall that could never be touched.

Looking back, the wind chimes were gone, only the familiar but hazy light.

I see!

This time, I got it all right.

"What happened? Wasn't I dazzled just now? Back to the wind chime, she circled around me, full of questions, "You obviously hit the wall just now!" Why is it that the moment you look back, the wall suddenly distances itself from you? ”

And I just looked at her with a sly smile on my face.

"Oops, I'm controlled by a mysterious power! It takes a beautiful kiss to remember what just happened! ”

"Smack~"

The slight slap dispelled my evil thoughts, and the wind chime looked at me with a cold expression, as if to ask me if I wanted to take a second slap.

It's not cute at all......

"Okay, okay, I'm not going to sell it, you close your eyes." I restrained my joking attitude, put on a stern face, and spoke my thoughts to the wind chimes in a serious tone.

However, she just looked at me like a rascal, and stood there indifferent.

"Believe me, if I have any improper thoughts, there will be five thunderstorms in the sky!"

I raised my right hand and swore, and the wind chimes gave me a blank look, and then did as I asked.

"Throw your fireball straight ahead!! Remember, you must not open your eyes!! ”

"Whew!!"

"Bang !!!!!"

As the words fell, the fireball shook its hand and flew towards the wall with a huge momentum.

Such a huge force must have been mixed with anger towards me.

This time, instead of repeating the endless flight, the fireball slammed into the wall, and after a violent explosion and collapse, the dark cellar was suddenly filled with choking dust.

"Ahem...... phew...... Phew......"

The two choked coughed incessantly, then squinted their eyes and fanned the soot in front of them.

After the air was a little fresher, the fireball of the wind chime was held in his hand again.

The completely different scene in front of us was beyond our expectations.

The light rippled to the edge in the distance, only this time it was not the obnoxious wall that appeared in front of me, but a hole two meters high and three meters wide.

"Young man! What's happening below! Isn't there a big mouse? ”

Because he had lost his patience, the uncle had long since stopped watching the cellar, but the sound of the popping made him hurry up and shout at us.

"Uncle, I've found the mouse hole."

I looked up at my uncle with a smile and pointed in the direction of the hole.

The hole was too wide, but it startled the uncle, "Mom! Such a big hole! The rat is a sperm! ”

Ignoring my uncle's fuss, Wind Chime and I walked in the direction of the cave entrance.

On the ground in front of the cave, there was a stone slab lying quietly, on which was the pattern of the eye on the previous wall.

【Psychedelic Eye】:

Item description: A stone tablet with mysterious powers.

The introduction is only a few words.

"That's what you call a big mouse?" The wind chime took the slate, flipped it back and forth in his hand, and threw it back to me.

"Then I can't say, what if this slate is fine?" I took the slate and threw it into my backpack, laughing at the atmosphere in front of me.

"You think they're all like you? The slate took so much effort to cultivate to perfection, just to run to this cellar and steal the radish and cabbage? ”

I can't see that the wind chimes are so eloquent and well-founded, and the rebuttal is reasonable, so I can't answer for a while.

"Okay, don't fix that, you still tell me how you unlocked this barrier?"

Looking at Wind Chime's serious questioning face, I didn't know how to answer her; Not because I can't say it, but because I can't think of enough rhetoric.

"This ...... is actually very simple to say! If you draw an eye on the wall, there are circles in your eyes, doesn't that mean that if you look at it with your eyes, you will fall into those circles-like cycles? So, if you don't look at it, it's fine! ”

The explanation was simple and easy to understand, and the clever wind chime nodded thoughtfully, and then suddenly realized "oh".

"That is to say! When you open your eyes and look at this wall, you will fall into the formation, and then the current character will be judged by the system to be a hit, whether it is yourself or your skills, you can't escape this formation; And when there is no wall in sight, it can be judged that it is not bound by the formation, right!? ”

Looking at the wind chimes with some little excitement, I only have black lines all over my head.

When other beauties encounter this kind of thing, they are all "so greasy", "so terrible", and so on, why do you have to look like an old and old-fashioned old professor?

Such a formal and boring explanation is very boring even for me, a big man, and I racked my brains to help you describe these truths into a concept that two fools can understand.

conceived a plan full of flirtatious thoughts, and most of it disappeared at once.

"Did you hear anything?"

Wind Chimes was very alert, and while I was still reflecting on my wit, she suddenly noticed something.

When I came back to my senses, I heard a small but noisy sound.

"In the hole! It's from the cave! Wind Chime clenched, then picked up his staff and stepped back.

I also crossed my Changhong sword and stood in front of her tightly, making a protective gesture.
