45 - Land of Despair
Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!
A figure in the moonlight, holding a stone pickaxe, kept gouging the wall in front of him, "I'm going to dig you, I'm going to dig up, I'm ...... Call! Call! Call! When the pickaxe fell to the ground, Weir fell to his knees clutching his chest, his face pale, covered in sweat, and the sweat on his chin fell on it drop by drop.
"Whew~" Ollie climbed out of his backpack, stood up, walked to the stone pickaxe, and struggled to pick up the stone pickaxe on the ground, but suddenly somersaulted himself, Ollie stared at the big eyes and found that the stone pickaxe that fell on the ground disappeared.
The kneeling Weir closed his eyes, sweat running down his head, "Ollie, no need...... It's useless, it's simply impossible to plane here. ”
With a long breath, Weir sat down by the wall, "It's been digging for so long, and nothing has changed here. ”
Just now, when Weir saw the stone pile in front of him, combined with the strange scene after waking up, his body trembled, he looked around in a panic, but there was only a deathly silence around him, and a distorted world, Weir ran around in a panic, but no matter how long he walked back, he would only run back to the statue in two steps, still trapped in place.
Vere panicked and began to dig with a pickaxe until he had dug up all the flint in his backpack.
The moon above him still hung in the sky, and the pile of rocks behind him still did not decrease. Weir looked at the statue still standing in front of him, the quiet was terrifying, vivid and terrifying, but it only added to the sense of disobedience here.
I thought I had mistaken the door, but when the symmetrical doors were opened by Weel, the same pile of stones appeared in front of Weel's eyes.
He rinsed his face with water and then took a few sips of water. Vere tried to calm down, but he was running out of food.
"What to do? How do I get out? "There is no way to chisel through the stone wall behind him, and there is no end to walking in the direction the statue is facing." What is this place? ”
Racking his brains, Weir began to think, "Calm down, calm down, think about the weird stuff here. Statue, courtyard ......"
And then there's the endless, repetitive, no-end ...... "No, no!" It's that I haven't gone far at all! It's that place doesn't exist at all! At this moment, Vere suddenly understood what Winnie had said to him.
Without the brilliance of the sacred tree, the world outside the barrier would not exist!
He's been wandering around the sacred tree, and he can only wander within the barrier! That's why I can't get out!
What now? Can you only be trapped here? Will scratched his head tangled, looking at the courtyard in front of him, but Wei had a feeling of being trapped in the valley.
"Trapped in the valley......" Will suddenly stopped, his eyes shining. Ollie, Ollie I thought, we should be able to solve the dilemma at hand! ”
Reaching out to pick Ollie up, Ollie's two front paws kept pushing Will's hand, and then he held his chin in frustration and let Willow toss.
So, Vere ate a mushroom. The familiar headache and dizziness returned, and everything in front of me was covered in a layer of brown.
Weir found that the stone carving in front of him was under this vision, emitting a faint white light in the center of the stone carving, just like the light that had turned into Winnie.
Suddenly, a feeling of dizziness came out of his mind, and he fell backwards unconsciously, thinking that he would lie on the wall, but Ver suddenly lay on the ground.
"Oops, the back of my head!" Knocking on the ground and sitting up with his head covered, Ver couldn't help but turn his head to look back, only to find that the building behind him had disappeared out of thin air.
Instead, there was a pitch-black courtyard gilded with a layer of brown, like the place where Veel had just walked endlessly.
"Light clusters?" Staggering to his feet, Wer took two breaths to ease the dizziness in his head, Wer reached out to touch the light, but only touched the cold stone, "Is it just an illusion in front of you?" Damn, my head hurts. ”
Supporting himself with a wooden spear, he grinned and walked towards the back of the statue.
Slowly moving forward, Wille noticed that the feeling of walking on a globe was gone, and behind the statue, the stone balustrade trapezoidal shape extended to the sides, forming a huge square.
Directly in front of the square, a tall church-like building appeared in front of Will, with stone columns and stone staircases that made the building particularly imposing.
"Church?" Wiel turned his head and looked at where he had begun, feeling that the church in front of him felt familiar. "Maybe it was built around the same time."
Then, Wille looked behind the church and saw a dark forest! Jungle! It's a great sign! Wiel's heart was overjoyed, and the urge to go to the jungle flashed.
The moon was already hanging in the middle of the sky, and the moonlight cast a silver color on the building in front of it, and it cast a dark shadow on the building.
The huge glazed windows are covered with dust, and the diamond-shaped window quality allows the light to refract and exude a variety of colors. Let the scenery in front of you be bleak and eerie.
The leaves and plants on the ground rustled under Wille's footsteps, and Wille slowly walked towards the building with a torch.
It was pitch black in the jungle, and Wille wanted to stay away from this strange place, but it was dangerous to walk in the dark jungle at night, and besides, his current state was too weak!
And he saw at the top of the mountain that the nest of those spiders was not on the top of the mountain, but in the dense forest.
You know, as Winnie said, the title of the Darkburner is not for nothing.
If it weren't for the fact that the Spider-King-like thing seemed to be weakened by the glowing stone, Ver wouldn't have had a chance to win.
What if you meet another Spider King in his prime?
Wiel dismissed the idea of going out immediately, but walked cautiously towards the house, now that the way out had been found, Wiel now needed to rest.
Slowly coming to the porch, there was no sound around the quiet stone house, and the insect chirps that could still be faintly heard disappeared, but Weir's heart suddenly became more and more nervous.
Cautiously pushing open the door, creaking loudly, Ver walked into the room with a torch in hand. With the turn of his gaze, Weier's hand involuntarily trembled violently, "See, hell! ”
Familiar arrangement, familiar fake second floor, familiar chairs.
And, familiar ...... Bonfire.
The spear in Wiel's hand fell to the ground with a thud, and he turned and ran out the door. The view outside the gate has not changed, it is still the square with the dense forest and the back of the statue.
Looking at the room behind him in disbelief, Ollie was standing in the doorway, watching in amazement as Wille fell to the ground.
Trembling, he drew a circle on the ground with his fingers, "What if...... The wall that just disappeared is the back of this building...... Behind the statue, in front of me...... Could it be... That's not right! I saw that the main entrance was blocked! Somehow, Ver suddenly remembered the circular ground he had walked on.
Weir didn't want to believe it, but there were still a few sparks in the extinguished campfire on the ground, and it was obvious that someone had just left, and the familiar shape was ......
"Is this just an unsolvable cycle? Am I going to be stuck here and can't get out? Gritting his teeth, "No! I don't believe it! I don't believe it! ”
As he spoke, he crawled to the door, and Wille picked up the wooden spear in a panic, and before Ollie could react, he spread his legs and rushed out, plunging headlong into the dense forest.
After a while, Ollie noticed a pop in the direction of the statue.
Running over, Weir was kneeling in front of the statue with dilated pupils in his eyes, distracted and desperate. He muttered, "I must be dead, this is hell, and I can't get out here." ”
Weel had expected to walk into the middle of the forest, but just after a few trees, a familiar stone fence and a long courtyard of corridors appeared in front of him.
"There must be somewhere to get out, I'll be able to get out, I don't want to be trapped here!" So saying, Ver turned to his feet and made a gesture to jump from the stone fence to the abyss below.
Ollie quickly grabbed Veil's trouser leg and motioned for Ver not to be impulsive.
"Fuck off! Don't stop me from getting out of here! You are the devil! "It's all you, what star spirits, what sacred trees!" It's all your fault! Weier gritted his teeth and said with red eyes, "I'm a duty office worker, and I'm about to get married, but I was brought to this island before I got married!" ”
"I just want to go back, what the hell did I do wrong, and you want to torture me like this?!"
The resentment accumulated after several lives and deaths, because of the desperate situation in front of me, completely exploded, "In order to live, I did everything I could, I struggled to kill chickens at home, and in this damn place I actually fought with those monsters to the death!" ”
Weir almost shouted, "I just wanted to be able to return to my original world from this place, but I found some clues, I escaped from the mouth of that monster, I thought I could go back, but now I landed in this place!" It's just trapped here, I just can't get out, I can't get out, I can't get out! ”
As he spoke, Weir mourned and wept bitterly.
Ollie tugged at Will's sleeve at a loss, a look of anxiety on his little face.
"Wow~" [Calm down]
The voice in his head calmed Wille down slightly.
"I almost forgot that you can still communicate with me spiritually. Ollie, if you can get out, remember to bring my message to Winnie. Let's just say I've done my best. ”
Ollie looked at the Wille in front of him and suddenly quieted down, thought it was okay, and let go of his hand, but the message in his mind made Ollie stunned.
"Whew~" [Don't]
In a breath, Wille jumped down.
Ver felt the wind whirring in his ears, and then fell into the infinite darkness.
...... "嗷~"......
Syllable!
Slammed on the ground, "Sizzle! ~" The pain in his ribs made Wille gasp and open his eyes suddenly, he found himself on the ground, clutching his chest and slowly getting up, looking around.
The door behind him opened, the moonlight shining in through it, and Ver saw the extinguished campfire at hand, and the little furnishings around him.
Old wooden chairs, stacked fabrics, balconies high up in front.
There was the sound of footsteps behind him, and Wille turned around, and Ollie ran in from the outside, throwing himself on Vere with tears in his eyes. "Whew! ~Oh! Oh. ”
Mu Ran let Ollie hang on his lap, and the bottom of Weir's eyes revealed a deep bitterness.
