Chapter 46: Who Am I?
"These are good ......" Duqi stood in the dark room with a bitter face. He didn't even dare to pull out the torches in his space to illuminate them, but the energy surging around him made him clearly aware of the huge gap between the two sides.
Indeed, the mansion is not owned by anyone. But the reality is that the other party's behavior of occupying this place cannot be called domineering, and the repeated reminders before the move, coupled with the fact that he did not use all his strength in actual combat, these actions can even be interpreted as benevolence. Think about it, how many strong people would be so patient with an intruder?
Suddenly some points of light appeared in front of them, as if countless fireflies were flying in the darkness. Then, the points of light became more and more numerous, and gradually converged to illuminate the entire space. It was only then that Du Qi found himself in a small sacrificial ancestral hall, with a huge golden statue standing in front of him.
Dozi didn't recognize the statue, but it seemed to be some god.
The colorful points of light became more and more numerous, and they gathered as if they were being kneaded by a pair of invisible hands, gradually revealing a child-like face.
"My lord, we have no ill intentions, please forgive us for our recklessness in insisting on breaking in." Du Qi bowed, and didn't care what form the other party appeared, he simply put himself in a low place, "We will leave here immediately." ”
As he spoke, Duzi felt a powerful force trying to break into his mind, and it felt like players chatting through the friend system, but more domineeringly. He understood the meaning of the other party, although he intended to resist, but the difference in strength between the two sides was too big, and he had to open the door obediently in the end.
"The smell on your body is familiar, so you shouldn't be a bad person." The voice sounded very childish, like a child who was only six or seven years old, "Can you tell me who I am?" ”
"Eh......" Du Qi was a little stunned, and he couldn't figure out what the situation was for a while.
"I had been sleeping and then I heard someone calling me. The voice sounded gentle, so I followed it. But when I opened my eyes, I didn't see anything. The big mouth's mouth opened and closed, and the immature voice continued to sound, "Your taste is familiar, do you know me?" ”
"That...... Can you elaborate on that? I don't know you, but I'm smart with my friends outside...... If we work together, we might be able to help you. Duzi asked tentatively.
A childlike laugh sounded in Duzi's mind; "Giggle...... You're such a funny person. I used to be happy to greet those who came here, but they always screamed and ran away. Then someone said they were going to tear it down, so I kept scaring them, and no one came. In the end, his voice became a little lonely again.
"This ......," Du Qi's courage slowly grew, "It may be because your spiritual power is too strong, and ordinary people may hallucinate if they come into close contact with this power." ”
"Huh...... Is that so? ”
The wooden door of the ancestral hall opened again, and three more figures were suddenly pulled in. Dozi's companions sat down on the ground under the force of inertia, looking up at him in horror.
"Ahem...... Are you alright? Feng Xing is a very smart person, and she quickly deduces her current situation from the situation at the scene alone. After being relieved of the fighting state, she turned back into an indifferent princess, stood up gracefully and asked, "What's going on here?" ”
"Giggle...... If you are willing to help me, I will introduce my friends to you! Childish laughter rang out again. The air tore through a huge hole, and several black shadows floated out of it.
"Wait!" Du Qi gave his friends a color and continued to chat with the big face, "What are these?" ”
"They're called Reisuke, and I'm called Elf!"
"Is that your name?"
"I don't know...... Well...... I just know anyway. ”
"Born to know? You were born with ...... Is that what you know when you wake up? I kind of get it. Du Qi had already roughly guessed the identity of the other party at this time, this guy who called himself an elf might not be a human being, but a more special existence. After freeing up his moment, he gave his friends a rough overview of the current situation, and then continued, "Do you remember anything else?" Or is there something in particular about this that you care about?"
"Concern? What does that mean? There was a puzzled look on his big face.
The black shadows seemed to understand Du Qi's words, and they jumped in the air a few times, and then floated over and circled around Du Qi and the others twice.
"Do they mean to take us somewhere?" Duzi asked.
"Yes, yes! Hey...... Tell me about that place? Okay, I'll lead the way. The elves jumped for joy. The door of the ancestral hall opened automatically, and the big face floated outward, and he didn't forget to turn around and beckon, "Come with me." ”
Du Qi and his companions glanced at each other, shrugged helplessly, and took the lead in following. At least as things stand, they probably won't die.
Surrounded by several black shadows, Du Qi and the others followed their big faces that were almost transparent in the sunlight, and walked through the courtyard to an old but imposing gray-white stone building in the middle of the mansion. Continue inside, through the messy hall, and down the dimly lit passageway into the basement.
With the glow of the elves, Dozi saw an old bronze door. "Is there room for hiding?" He asked.
"Yes, yes! It's big inside, and we play in it a lot, so come on in. ”
The bronze door slowly opened, and down a somewhat slippery staircase, a basement appeared before them.
"Can we go around?" Duzi was a little excited. However, judging from the surrounding situation, this stone chamber should have a long history, and it is likely that some unknown secrets are buried in it.
"Just look at it!" The elf was very thoughtful enough to condense a few balls of light and let them follow behind Kui Qu and the others, while it itself continued to stick to Du Qi's side.
The basement is huge, and although it looks cluttered due to its age, it's not dirty at all. Walking through a passageway, he came to a larger space with a huge altar standing in the middle.
"Is this some kind of sacrificial place?" Du Qi approached the altar and observed for a moment, but did not find any traces related to the runes, but something outside his knowledge system, "Brother Yuanya, they must be interested in this." He muttered to himself as he walked over to the large wooden table beside him, trying to dig out something useful from it.
However, most of the items here are strange utensils, and the system doesn't give any explanations, so Duzi can only guess that they are some kind of sacrificial items. In addition to this, he found some rotting plants and fruits, but they were of no avail. "At least it doesn't look like some kind of horrible cult." He comforted himself so much.
"Brother Duqi!" Hanekawa's voice sounded on the other side, "This way, we found a scroll of codex. ”
