So what exactly is a hound!

What is the broken space?

Mia frantically frenzyed. She had never wished Asker had been by her side more than she had now—her little little head was bursting with question marks.

However, neither the student next to her nor the bald professor could explain it to her. Everyone was muttering mysterious things like "get rid of the horns" and "don't touch the hounds".

Soon, everyone finished building their mental preparations, and then under the auspices of the professor, they each took out the pills and began to prepare to swallow.

Mia kept an eye on it. Or, thinking of being stared at by Aske on the sidelines at this time, making her small brain run wildly, she finally figured out how to deal with the current situation.

She tucked the pill between her fingers, using the same trick that thieves used to do, and pretended to shove it into her mouth. Then he lowered his palm, swallowed with a grunt in his throat, and then looked at everyone out of the corner of his eye.

Seeing that Maria next to her had collapsed on the chair and began to babble out of her mouth, Mia also hung her neck, leaned back in the chair and tilted her head, and stumbled vaguely.

But now no one appreciated her virtuosity, for the others lay back feebly, muttering to themselves, even drowning out the rustling of tape tapes in the room.

"Constantinople fell...... Black Friday ......"

"The steam engine started the Industrial Revolution...... The tireless machine is eating people......"

"East and West camps...... The Iron Curtain of Nuclear War...... Shelter must be sought as soon as possible...... Leave a spark before destruction......"

"The baby destroys its cradle and descends into darkness...... What a sad future......"

"Separated...... We are separated...... I just found a place where I looked good......"

"The tide has destroyed everything...... Lost technology, hidden civilization...... To find them...... ...... from the long river of time"

"I found it!" Maria suddenly jumped up from her chair, dancing stiffly like a puppet, her pupils completely out of focus, and the corners of her mouth twitched and grinned, "A perfect civilization before the first magic tide!" The developed science and industry are enough to support mankind to cross the sea of stars and the crystallization of the most brilliant civilization! ”

She began to quickly report a series of theoretical terms, what multiphase nuclear fusion, what orbital logistics network, what alien microbiology, and Mia shrunk her neck in some fear, feeling that the schoolgirl was completely crazy.

The others were still in a deep dream, and in order not to arouse their suspicions, Mia could only learn their tone of speech, and began to read indiscriminately:

"Shattered entrails, clotted blood, tangled tentacles, godless eyes, twisted plants, shriveled limbs, mutilated brains, scarlet fruits......" she muttered, a little hungry, and quietly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Suddenly, Maria screamed: "No! It's a horned monster! Wickedness and emaciation! They smell me! Run! Run! ”

She fell to the ground heavily, and then, as if she had regained her senses, she hurriedly got up from the ground, and first shook the professor in a psychedelic state awake with all her might:

"Quick! I was discovered by the hounds! They smell me!! ”

"Maria ......" Professor slowly opened his eyes, and then gave a frightened chill, "Hound? Did you encounter a Hound in a space-time rift? ”

"Yes!" Maria couldn't help but whimper and cried, "I found information about prehistoric civilizations...... I was intoxicated and stayed there for too long, blocking the flow of time...... I was found by them! ”

"Wake up the others!" The professor also made a decision and said sharply.

So Mary wept in fright as she woke up the others. Mia pretended to be in a coma and slowly "woke up".

"Now that you've met a hound, it's inevitable that you'll be targeted by them. Listen, I'm going to find someone to solve the problem of the hounds, and until then you have to stay in this special room, protect Maria, and don't take a step outside! ”

The professor spoke sharply, then picked up the tape recorder next to him and opened the door to the room, which was also made of strange curved surfaces, similar to those of a tape recorder, and was designed and built to avoid any edges and corners.

The door was locked again. All that remained in the room was the sound of Mary crying, and a few other students staring at each other.

"What should I do?" John spoke first, his blunt braces making him speak in a strange voice, "When will the hounds come?" ”

"It may vary from 1 day to 1 month." Joshua replied cautiously, "It depends on how far we are from the Hound and how long we have been there, but it is said that whoever they are targeting will ...... sooner or later."

He glanced at Mary, who was still covering her face in pain, and continued:

"As long as you fight off the hounds once, they usually don't chase anymore."

"But how are we going to defeat it?" Mary looked up suddenly, and hope appeared again in her tearful eyes.

"There's definitely a way for the professor." Joshua said in a euphemistic tone that "he doesn't know either."

Maria stared at him blankly, then turned around as if hysterically, and pounced on Mia fiercely:

"It's all you!" She tried to rip Mia's hair and choke her neck, "It's your curse that attracted the hounds and framed me!" ”

Although the opponent's movements were extremely fierce, where could Mia be hit by such a flawed attack, she just stepped back agilely, and Maria pounced.

Then he followed up with a knee.

The knee slammed into Maria's abdomen, causing her to fall to the ground like a shrimp, vomiting out of her stomach. The remaining two male students hurriedly came over to pull the fight, while Mia quickly retreated, once again avoiding their entanglement.

"Don't blame me!" Mia exclaimed a little speechlessly, "I just wanted to dodge, but she was so well positioned that I couldn't help but make up for it!" ”

John, Joshua: ..................

Did you hit someone or was it someone's fault?

"Then you can't ......do the same," said Joshua, weakly, when he suddenly heard John exclaim:

"Wait...... What is that!!! ”

The two immediately followed John's gaze and looked at Maria who had fallen to the ground - her protective suit had been broken by Mia and was leaking, and she was hunched over her abdomen in pain, and her upper and lower bodies had bent almost to about 70 degrees...... From the apex of this acute angle, a dark blue mist spreads outward, forming a long strip of beast figure in the air.

It has a slender body and misshapen legs, and its mouth is a long tubular organ that reminds Mia of the Nightmare Tapir she once encountered in the Hearthfire Island dungeon. The tail is flattened like a duck's beak and covered with strange scales.

More detail, however, is blurred in the distorted light. Like the high-dimensional creatures in the last Spiritual Tree mutation, the appearance of this creature cannot be accurately observed, and everyone can only see the general outline, and any attempt to see it further will bring a slight spiritual tingling.

A hounds from a space-time rift.
