Chapter 114: Speculation
The dampness of the night permeated the air, diffusing a sentimental atmosphere, looking up at the sky, the starry sky was exceptionally clear, like a small tear but slowly began to brighten up, and the sky was gradually dawning.
It's been about three hours since the first time she entered the jungle, and Noah seems to be deliberately avoiding something, avoiding Ye Yin and Kong Xue, avoiding the fact that the two of them don't know themselves anymore, and they are no longer the two people they know, but despite this, the two of them are still those two people in their hearts, Noah is willing to think like this, but she still deliberately chooses to avoid it, just like she doesn't want to see them all the time now, how good it would be if there were no memories.
Thinking like this, it is extremely frustrating, in this place of God's Domain, Noah has exposed too many tricks, and she has to act carefully, Noah is not the same person she used to be, at least not now.
However, I still can't feel the breath of the moon, even if it is the huge Zhangqi hovering under the entire jungle, it is too amazing, but at least go back before dawn, the special Zhangqi in this jungle is very easy to hallucinate.
Thinking of the man in the iron mask before, the elemental power is fire, even if he was wearing a mask at the beginning, he could see that his body sobbed when he saw Noah, he seemed to know himself, or he didn't want to see himself, he ran away, he didn't have the confidence to continue to stay there, but this is not what Noah has to take care of, the first thing to do now is to find Mao Yue, in the divine domain, Noah wants to avoid any out-of-the-ordinary behavior.
In fact, the Trial Forest is not as big as expected, it may have been very large before, but after the previous fire, the Trial Forest was renovated, and the outer part of the forest was transformed, leaving only the central part, so the current Trial Forest is less than a quarter of what it used to be.
The maximum perception range under the pupil of the realm covered almost the entire trial forest, but there was no awareness, and it was impossible for the breath of other creatures to be covered, and the moon disappeared out of thin air.
Or maybe she's out, Noah wants to think so, but she doesn't.
At this time, a huge roar came from the sky not far away.
"What's going on...... Noah sniffed the smell coming from the air, a fishy smell, a few birds with huge wings flew in, saying that they were birds, but they were just dragon-like heads, but they were extremely hideous, and their bodies were a little deformed, as if they were subspecies of some giant beasts, let's call them birds, and there were soldiers on the birds, and there was a small team of people circling in the sky.
Silver armor, holding a spear, dressed heroically, like a tree of Qiongzhi, planted in the white water of Black Mountain, revealing the brilliance of glass for life, dark and bottomless eyes, like a pool of deep water directly submerged so that people have nowhere to breathe, eyes like fire, all the way to the bottom of people's hearts.
The blue satin draped over the bird's chest has a huge and conspicuous emblem - the Holy Knights.
But how to explain this, it seems that the Holy Knights have intervened, and Noah pursed her lips, she should continue.
The birds swept by the wind, a wisp of breaking wind, and the crystal flashes were interspersed with it, and from time to time a deafening huge roar sounded in the ears, all the way through the wind layer.
No, it should be retreated, Noah hid in the treetops and watched, but it was not a way to find Mao Yue for a while, but there is no reason why Mao Yue would disappear for no reason when he came here, otherwise there is some kind of teleportation circle in the forest, plus the departure of the Holy Knights now, maybe Noah in the forest did not find out that there are some ulterior secrets.
Thinking about it, Noah sighed, but suddenly a burst of blue ice came from a distance, and the target was Noah.
Noah's face changed slightly, and her body turned into white light again, dodging the blue ice cream, and then turned her gaze to the source of the ice cream.
A figure was slowly approaching.
Wrapped tightly in armor, at least his face can't be seen, and the five vertical paths on his chest are also a little different, with murderous intent on his face, the blue spear in his hand keeps spewing out cold ice divine power, which is not very rare, it should be a weapon that is standard by the Holy Knights, and it is not so threatening.
"Noah—Hiltellea!" came out of the man's mouth, but it seemed extraordinarily incongruous.
Noah frowned slightly, but why did this person know his name, but this person looked very strange, as if someone else called it on his behalf, he didn't go with the other paladins, but chose to come, as if he went to the place that had been agreed at the beginning to meet, very strange.
And it's also strange to attack himself from the beginning, he has no reason to do this, the Trial Forest is deserted, and there are no laws against it, but it's strange to look at his expression.
After thinking about it, this person then swung a shot, and the ice divine power quickly condensed, and an arc-shaped ice blade flew out.
Noah hurriedly got up and dodged, jumped onto a dead tree in three times and divided by two, and stared down at the armored man.
"What...... What do you mean?" Noah's pupils tightened.
"Noah really lives up to her reputation!" the armored man spoke, and his voice was still so strange, as if the two of them were separated by a wall.
"Who are you?
"The Trial Forest has been ordered to be closed, can you go back?"
"That's it!" Noah nodded, a sneer on her lips.
"What about you? I have something to ask you!"
Turning his hand into a knife, he swung it directly towards the armored man, trying to split it in two in one go.
The snow-white cold light smoothly streaked past, and the armored man blocked it in front of him with his spear, and the flames that burst from the broken spear burned away.
The armored man snorted with a muffled sound, and in the crack in the armor on his chest, there was a terrifying wound, but the wound did not bleed.
"How can it be so incongruous? Hey, let me ask you, are you a nibder?"
"I am!" muttered to the armored man, barely audible "or not, you guess!"
"Cut!" Noah gritted her teeth and flew away, taking the initiative to attack, "Squeak!" She focused her strength on one point, and with one foot lightly stomped on the ground, a thick and terrifying explosion poured out from the sole of her foot. With a muffled bang, Ayaba's whole person flew out like thunder and lightning, and the rocks on the ground shattered due to the strong recoil, splashing up in all directions under the strong pressure of the huge force, leaving a shallow crater, and the craters were covered with criss-crossing cracks around the holes.
Noah was extremely fast, and in an instant, he came to the armored man's side, and with a bang, the armored man was kicked squarely by Noah, and although he tried to block with one arm, it was still very difficult.
"Take it?" Noah said with a smile, the texture of touching the armoured man's arm was very different, and as soon as she gritted her teeth, her left hand was raised.
There was a terrible whistling sound, and a gale swept over, how wild, and it tore off one of the armoured men's arms.
However, the armored man didn't make any noise, and it seemed like it was holding back the pain, but Noah didn't seem to be in pain at all.
"Sure enough, it's great, now, I understand, I know!" the armored man finished, as if he had accomplished his purpose, and stopped making a sound.
As soon as Noah gritted her teeth, her pupils suddenly dilated, and a force burst out instantly, pressing it to the ground with a huge force.
Slowly pushing his hands, the armored man's body also slowly pressed downward, becoming hideous and blurred, and constantly struggling, when a deep core radiated crystal energy, Noah shook his head slightly.
There was no special sound, just the sound of some kind of sonic heartbeat, the armored man was paralyzed, no longer moving, and did not produce any heat, although the corpse that had just died was not hot, maybe it was not a living thing from the beginning, it was just an empty shell.
Or is it...... Noah's eyes flickered, if he was a corpse, then the time of his death was not a day or two, judging from the degree of dryness of his skin after the divine power was exhausted from him, it was at least more than a year.
That's not what happened these days.
Noah breathed a sigh of relief, but now there was another question, since she was already dead, what kind of force made the corpse act on its own, and what was that sense of incongruity?
Maybe it may be a puppet that has been artificially changed, but Noah didn't find any medium for remote control of the puppet in this corpse, so in this way, the corpse acts on its own, and it is impossible to deceive the corpse, and someone should use what method to manipulate the corpse, but the method used is particularly secretive and completely incomprehensible.
After thinking about it for a while, Noah suddenly realized one thing, one thing that should have been discovered a long time ago, and slowly touched the armored man's scorched earth-like body a few times, isn't this the same as before?
The state of death of the armored people, except that some of the creatures are gone, is the same as the victims of the gnawers.
From these and the previous Felix's point of view, Noah finally came to the following points.
First, there is more than one predator, or one or more groups.
Second, the ontology of the gnawer has the ability to control others, and the person who controls is the person who is defeated by the predator and then erodes its will, but it can also be a corpse.
Third, the deceased may be a clone of the eater.
Fourth, if the above three points are true, then the deceased who has become a clone of the eater is a new consciousness dominated by the consciousness of the eater, as if a new soul has been added, and the above is also a hypothesis.
Da~Da~
There were some slow footsteps, stepping on the wet earth, and the leaves of the bean curd gave off magic, and they walked quickly, looking like a sense of vicissitudes of life. The eye bubbles were slightly swollen, there was a faint black shadow under the slightly drooping eyelashes, and his eyes were sharp, and he carefully looked at Noah and the armored man next to him.
"Noah?"
"Arashi?" Noah remembered the person in front of her, the man who had helped her a lot on the first day of her visit.
"This is our Paladin?"
It can be seen from the coat of arms on Arashi's chest that Arashi's position in the Holy Knights is also similar to the team leader level, but at this time, he is really going to escape.
"Noah, are you ......" Arashi's eyes became ominous, and she looked at Noah incredulously.
Sure enough, you shouldn't have lingered in this place for too long, if the assumption just now is correct, if the idea just made sense, then Noah has been tricked.
"Eater?"
Noah's pupils constricted instantly.
"I'm not!"
Lan looked at Noah inexplicably and said, "Then what's the matter with our people who died here, whether it's or not, I think you should go back with me!"
"Are you sure it's 'here'?"
"Are you kidding?" the man was a little surprised, and looked over with a straight face, "Who believes it?"
"Believe it or not, I believe it anyway!"
"What!"
"I gotta go!!"
"Stop!!"
After that, the two divine powers erupted in an inch of strength, burst out and converged together, with a strong smell of burning, and the surrounding space was somewhat distorted and deformed under the erosion of powerful energy, and at this moment, the ground immediately collapsed one layer.
Not all Paladins are so useless, and the Paladins, as the backbone of the God's Domain Guard, are not as unbearable as Noah imagined.
The killing intent that shook the mountains and tore through the air roared down, flashing white light, flooding everything around.
............
"What is this?"
Obviously, the two of them attacked, stimulating a little of the surrounding space, and they happened to reach the area where Felix was.
Felix still looked at ease, and even though he had just seen the fluctuations around him, nothing could deter him.
At least for now.
Then the scene in front of him deviated a little from what he had thought, even the people of the Holy Knights who were slowly gathering towards several people.
"Idle people, evacuate quickly, now this place is taken over by the Holy Knights!"
Felix subconsciously clenched his palm.
However, the half-squinted tiger, who has slowly shown his sharp claws, will step out of his huge steps, with a slight hint of self-deprecation, is there anything behind?
