053 Velvet Room
readx;?“ Everything is almost organized, so let's go. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Standing in the side room of the middle of the painting, where a blue magic door was painted on the wall, Bai Ze took a good look at the outfit on his body, glanced at the white jade fox standing at his feet, and then reached out and pushed open the "door" that seemed to be fake and real.
A dazzling blue light that seemed to engulf people swayed out from the crack in the door, and the young man in front of the door seemed to be pulled out by a force in an instant, and a narrow corridor with rows of carved and strange statues carved on both sides and a gorgeous red carpet on the ground appeared, and it took only a few seconds for the long corridor to be hundreds of meters away from the small man, and at the end of the original darkness in front of him, a door slowly opened - the dazzling light diffused from the door, Shine a snow-white light on everything around you......
When the boy regained consciousness, he realized that he had found himself in a sky-blue room that was shaped like an elevator but was extremely ornately decorated.
Although no inertia or momentum was felt, the room seemed to be constantly moving downward, and the only remaining hour hand on a large dial in the center was rotating faster than the second hand, judging from the hazy white light cast from behind the extremely intricate balustrade laid out in front of the floor.
He was standing in front of a blue round table, accompanied by the beautiful female voice chanting under the soothing piano music, and the whole space floated with a dreamlike atmosphere, and in front of the young man sat on the wide velvet sofa behind the round table, and sat a white-haired old man with a bald forehead, with a huge eagle hooked nose that was beyond ordinary people's imagination and unforgettable at first sight; On the side of the sofa where the old man was sitting stood a beautiful silver-haired girl in a blue uniform and a round hat.
"Oh...... What about a guest with a special fate...... Ho ho. ”
An old man in a black suit with a big nose and white gloves folded his hands and elbows rested on the round table, let out a slightly hoarse laugh.
“……”
Looking at the old man in front of him, the young man couldn't tell how he felt.
In this strange space, everything is a dreamlike blue, blue carpet, blue round table, blue sofa, and the silver-haired girl who is too delicate to look like a human......
"My name is Igor, and this is a place between dream and reality, between spirit and matter—a room that can only be accessed by those who have made a contract through some form, and from this day forward, you will be a guest of the 'Velvet Room.'"
The old man named Eagle didn't seem to wait for Bai Ze's response, and introduced himself to himself.
"Ho ho, it's the first time in more than two years that I've seen a guest who opened the door to enter this place on their own, so I don't know where you want to go?"
The old man's gaze was quite sharp, and his worthwhile words couldn't help but make Bai Ze's heart move secretly.
"Why, do you mean—anywhere?"
The old man smiled slightly at the boy's tentative inquiry—his rather strange countenance made the smile look rather strange.
"Of course, it's not possible, the only destinations you can choose are the ones that appear on your service list."
I don't know if it's because of her uncomfortable throat, the girl with short silver hair standing behind her coughed lightly, attracting the attention of the two.
"Oh, I introduced you too late, this one, Elizabeth, is a guest in this room like me."
At this moment, the old man who realized that he had missed a person introduced him to the young man, and the girl who had been standing quietly on the side also bowed her head to greet the young man.
"I will accompany you on the rest of the journey, my name is Elizabeth."
The girl's voice was cold and distant, and Bai Ze could not see any emotional fluctuations from her body-but, judging from her small movements before, it was obviously not as innocent as it seemed on the outside.
"--I'll leave the details to you later."
As he spoke, the old man smiled at Bai Ze, stretched out his hand and waved it on the table, and then saw three cards appear on the table with a soft light, and when he turned his palm and waved it again, the three cards turned over together, depicting three landscapes with different scenery on it, and then slowly floated in front of him, standing in the air about half a meter away from him out of thin air.
"Please choose the end of this tour."
Raising his eyes, Bai Ze found that these three cards all had corresponding names written on them: Infinite God Domain, Moon World, and Fantasy Dream.
The name of the first place looked quite familiar, but Bai Ze's attention was basically drawn to the card with the label "Moon World" in the second chapter, and considering that he had just returned, he didn't want to go there again, so he just looked at it twice, and then set his eyes on the last card.
There was nothing to say, Bai Ze stretched out his hand and pointed to the card representing the fantasy realm, confirming the target of this teleportation.
Hearing this, Isabella, the silver-haired girl standing on the side, stepped forward and handed out the tome she had clipped to her side, and Eagle waved his hand on it, and the book opened by itself and turned over hundreds of pages before stopping.
"Well, before your next visit, please take care......
As he pressed his palm on the page that finally stopped in front of him, Bai Ze only felt that the room, which had been moving downward but did not have any corresponding sense, finally had a tangible sense of movement.
As if the elevator he was riding suddenly fell, the young man's consciousness was involuntarily confused, and in the next moment, there was a sense of recoil similar to that generated when the elevator stopped, and at the moment when he vaguely saw the old man close the book in front of him, he also seemed to be instantly cut off from this room!
"Huh? Here it is......"
There seemed to be a faint blue light behind him, and when he turned his head to look back, he could only see the light and shadow of a blue magic door that had closed and gradually dissipated, making him realize that he seemed to have completed the teleportation.
And when he looked closely at his surroundings, he realized that he seemed to have come to the ruins of the apartment building that he remembered in his memory.
However, just as he was looking at the black outfit that he had changed on, the white jade fox, who had walked to this world with him at some point, hiccups as if he had been bored, and then saw a faint wisp of black smoke wafting out of its mouth.
As a result, this faint smoke and dust, which seemed to be a pot at home, spread rapidly at an astonishing speed in the blink of an eye, and its hue was only a few degrees lower even if it drifted out of a few meters, so that in a few blinks of an eye, the entire building was filled with a gray tone of green smoke, and then, in this short period of time, there was a sense of vicissitudes that had been abandoned for hundreds of years, and the steel bars that were originally exposed from the broken walls had become extremely rotten. Even with a slight knock on the wall with his fist, a large piece of concrete fell from his palm, and after hitting the ground, it directly shattered into a piece of slag.
"Is this thing so fragile? Speaking of which, what did the white jade fox eat, and it was so powerful just by burping? ”
After muttering softly, Bai Ze raised his feet and stepped forward, not far away, the whole building seemed to shake slightly with his movements, but although he quickly stopped his movements, he still couldn't recover a "squeak" sour sound came from the surrounding walls, and then there was a "boom" The whole building collapsed instantly, and the teenager who didn't have time to react was suddenly buried under hundreds of tons of reinforced concrete!
Bai Ze, who was directly pressed by the four or five floors below, was startled at first, but he didn't feel any impact and pressure, as if he had covered several layers of quilts, just when he began to worry about his breathing problems, a violent storm of flames suddenly swept in all directions with his position as the center, and the concrete that should not be able to burn was also ignited by the fire as if it had turned into wood slag, and in less than ten seconds, the floor that was originally covered above his head was burned through and blown away, and when he looked at the sky above his head with a blank expression, he noticed that the corners of the mouth of the white jade fox beside him who were shaking his body rapidly and shaking off the dust on his body were still filled with sparks that had not been completely extinguished.
"Little fox, the power of your flame vortex skill seems to be a little too strong, right?"
In response to Bai Ze's emotion, the little fox snorted proudly twice, and seemed to be quite immodest to accept his admiration.
After getting out of the ruins that had already settled, Bai Ze found that the building that had completely become history had been shrouded in a milky white fog all the time, and the fog was getting bigger and bigger at this moment, even much thicker than the fog that was less than ten meters visible when the fog was deep in the mountains, and even a little similar to the feeling of the most serious haze that could not see the five fingers.
The fog soon swept in from all directions, enveloping the entire ruins, but this blind-like situation did not last long, and I saw a gust of wind suddenly blowing from nowhere, and it didn't take long to blow the whole fog away, and at this moment, the scenery around me was stunned and had a great change!
The ruins left behind after the collapse of the original building became a grassy meadow, the dark and oppressive sky became clear and transparent, and the quiet environment that was quiet enough to even hear the sound of one's own breathing was broken by the chirping of insects and birds in the distance, as if the previous ruined building was just an illusory dream, and it had completely disappeared with the dense fog that quietly dissipated.
