Sou!

Mia didn't know how many times she had teleported, but she saw that everyone was on the edge of a certain river.

This is the first time that everyone has seen a river in its natural environment since entering the abyss, its surface is unusually wide, it is almost impossible to see the opposite bank, the water surface is calm without waves, and it looks quiet and strange in the dim light.

Mia and Mi'er looked at each other, then at Asker.

"River of Eternal Darkness." Asker replied, "It is said that the river leads to the end of time, so you must not fall into the water." ”

"The end of time?" Mi'er was suddenly a little curious.

"The 'end of time' in the truest sense of the word." Asker replied, "When you fall into the water, your time on your body slows down compared to the outside world. In other words, from your point of view, time in the outside world is gradually speeding by. ”

"The farther away you are swept away by the river, the more noticeable this slowdown becomes. By the time you're swept away by the river, time outside is almost at an end - no one knows what it will be like, and it's said to be an endless horror. ”

"Hey, Asker, you're a bit weird." Mia said curiously, "Since no one knows what the end looks like, how do you know that the end of the river of eternal darkness is the end of time?" And how do you know that it is an endless terror? ”

"Because being pushed downstream by the river will cause your time to gradually become static relative to the outside world, and conversely, from your frame of reference, the speed of time in the outside world will gradually tend to infinity. Therefore, when you reach the end of the river of eternal darkness, it must be equivalent to the end of time, which is a mathematical derivation. "Isn't it terrifying that the moment you fall into the water, everything you know has been washed away by time, and there is no possibility of turning back?" ”

"Uh, okay." Mia showed an expression of "I don't understand what you're saying, but I think you're right" and subconsciously took a few steps back, "Then let's stay away from this terrible river." ”

The crowd rested on the banks of the river, waiting for Mia's spirit to stabilize.

Although the Sword of Ripples has no consumption and no cooldown, the premise is that the travel distance is short enough, and if it is used for long distances, it will cause severe dizziness and exhaustion if used multiple times.

Therefore, Miya also lay on Asker's lap and comfortably accepted the "temple massage service" of the head of the group.

Mi'er was very envious from the side, and she couldn't wait to replace her. It's just that she also knows that everyone has not gotten rid of the risk now, and it is important to let Xiao Ya lead everyone to run away quickly in the best condition, so she didn't say much.

A few hours later, at the bottom of the abyss, in Research Institute No. 710.

The nuclear reactor finally stopped, and with the complete dissipation of energy and the temperature dropped below the threshold, the fusion reactor could no longer maintain its original chain reaction.

Immediately afterward, the entire research institute fell into darkness in an instant - all light sources, after losing their power supply, were extinguished in an instant.

A pitch-black figure stepped out of the reaction room, looked at the four of them who were dizzy and couldn't move, and let out a strange low sound.

Their bodies instantly disintegrated into the darkness, like wheat that had fallen into a high-speed spinning millstone, and instantly turned into powder.

However, the shadow quickly let out a cry of exasperation, as it sensed that the four were not really dead, but more like they had quickly left this world after some kind of power had been lifted.

That is, a false phantom.

Another shadow came up to it, letting out a raspy laugh.

Then the two shadows vanished in place, steadily chasing in a certain direction.

Moments later, the entire institute had completely disappeared into the darkness, leaving behind only a large abyssal void.

"Huh?" At the same time, Mi'er suddenly raised her head.

"What's wrong?" Aske immediately asked.

"The 'we' of the parallel worlds that remained in the research institute and that I was responsible for maintaining were killed and expelled back just now." Miel replied.

"So those bosses are coming out?" Asker reacted.

"Hmm." Mi'er nodded.

"Let's go!" Aske pushed Mia, who was lying down, and the latter quickly got up and led everyone to teleport up and run away again.

The surrounding scene changed rapidly, and everyone realized that they were in a certain tunnel, and there were obvious traces of artificial excavation and repair around it.

"Where is this?" Mia asked, wondering.

"The Labyrinth of the Tunnels of Darakra." Asker replied, "The lowest level of the Dark Elf dungeon. ”

"The Dark Elf Dungeon?" Mi'er was a little curious, especially about the word "dark elves".

Her elven bloodline is inherited from her deceased mother, and she rarely encounters other elves. The only time I've seen dark elves is in the Olympia City's demon tide attack, those brutal creatures with dark skin and hair as thick as nerve bundles make her slightly frightened and disliked.

But since Aske said that they built this dungeon, it means that the dark elves actually have their own civilization, and are not only beasts that know how to kill?

"Ah, the Dark Elves." Capet sighed for no reason, "This barbaric creature hasn't been extinct after a thousand years, and now I believe a ......little more in what you call the 'Demon Tide'."

"Dark elves used to bury the remains of their ancestors under their living quarters, in the so-called dungeons." "Then they have a habit of sacrificing their prey or captives in the labyrinths at the bottom of the dungeon, leaving them disoriented and hungry until they die, and it is said that such spirits will become food for their ancestors in the underworld." ”

"Barbaric customs." Capet commented.

"If someone else were here, we might still be trapped in the maze, but we can teleport directly." Asker waved his hand and said to Mia, "Let's go." ”

Mia nodded, and the spatial perception was released again, and the complex layout of the surrounding labyrinth appeared in her mind. Sensing continues upwards, penetrating layers of dark matter, and an empty spot is discovered.

The surroundings of the group changed again, and the Sword of Ripples led them directly to the hall above the labyrinth.

Sure enough, as Aske said, this seems to be the ancestral burial chamber of the Dark Elves.

On the walls hung linen tapestries with some kind of strange symbol painted with some kind of red paint. There are a total of eight stone coffins in the hall, which are placed vertically with the center as a dot radiating to the surroundings, as if they are arranging some kind of magic circle.

"I'm a little dizzy." Mia grabbed Asker's arm and seemed to be unsteady on her feet.

After all, frequent long-distance teleportation with four people is too much of a drain on her willpower.

"You ...... first Take a break? Asker looked around and hesitated.

After all, this is the tomb of the ancestor of the dark elves, and it seems a bit immoral to sleep here.

However, there is nothing Mia can do if she can't hold on, so Aske plans to find a hidden place around to let Mia have a good rest......

At this moment, in the corridor in front of the hall, there was a sudden sound of dense footsteps.
