Chapter 41: A one-man show

Compared to the first floor, the fourth floor is much cleaner and tidier.

It seems that what is recorded in the first diary is indeed the truth, and the desperate frogs are gathering at the lowest level to fight for survival.

There is no suspense in their ending, and the hundreds of corpses that have been purified have explained everything, but the shadowchasers still have many unsolvable doubts in their hearts, but they have never been able to find the answer.

Who are they fighting at the last minute? It can't be with real plants, it can only be with frogmen who are controlled by plants. However, the plants can directly control all the people, so why do they want to use the siege to deal with the remaining frogmen?

No one can answer this question, not even the owner of the first diary, the director of the research institute, I am afraid that only those plants that cannot be seen or touched now, but who are always around everyone.

Of course, neatness is only relative to the first layer, and in fact the fourth layer is quite messy.

Discarded shoes can be seen on the side of the road, perhaps left during the evacuation, the rags in the center of the road that have not completely decayed, or the debris thrown in a panic, the few pools of blood on the ground that have long since dried up, it must have hurt itself in a hurry, as for the corpse whose head was trampled flat, its stomach was dissected, and its internal organs were hollowed out......

"No, I can't make it up. Shur held the holy book in his hand, and pressed his finger on the corpse's flattened forehead, and the glimmer of light flashed, and the corpse turned into a point of light and drifted away.

"Shhhh "Saf had taken off his glasses since just now, and now he was being guided by Shuer's hand, like a real blind man.

After years of reading a lot, while accumulating a wealth of knowledge, it also paid a heavy price, and the female swordsman must wear thick glasses at all times, otherwise there is not much difference from the blind.

Sometimes, though, it wasn't necessarily a bad thing to lose, and her eyesight was getting worse and worse, and her hearing was getting better and better, so that even the sharpest hunter couldn't compare to her in hearing. The flowers bloom and the snow falls, and she can feel the world with her hearing.

"Don't speak, thirty-one degrees north-east, one hundred and thirty-seven meters away, there was a sound just now. Not sure if it was him, or if it was the sound of the building itself's expansion. ”

"One hundred and thirty-seven meters, go. Shul put his arm around Saf's waist and lifted her to Moria's back and sat down. The fawn angrily kicked a hoof on his knee, and then ran directly to the top of the fence, trotting along the metal fence.

"You're a deer, not a goat, so you don't need such a difficult move. Shure, dressed in a cloth robe, scurried up and down the roof and walls, his feet smoother than anyone else's. In fact, relying on the hard work of his hometown era, his control over his body is the strongest among all his teammates, and this level of balance control seems to him to be as simple as eating and drinking.

"Click", a few meters away, hooves on the metal floor, a crisp crash echoing in the silent space.

Moria, who had fallen to the ground, bent down, her face resting on the ground, her fingers gently caressing the marks on the floor.

"He didn't go through this road. Lin Jing finally put his finger under his nose and sniffed a few times, shook his head, and said, "These are very ancient traces, and they must have nothing to do with him." ”

"Wait, no, he passed by, and the voice was him. Within a second, Moria did not hesitate to overturn her judgment, "The trail is well hidden, but the smell can't hide from me, he definitely stepped on the ground." ”

"Here?" Shuer pointed to the place where Lin Jing had touched just now.

"Well, that's it. ”

"Sniff sniff sniff. Saph followed Moria's example, lying on the ground and sniffing, squinting his eyes trying to see where his friend was, "I didn't smell anything special." ”

"Sasa don't mess with it. Suffocating Saf's head so hard that she shrunk to the side like a wronged cat, Shul pressed his finger to the point where the forest spirit was pointing, and the other finger moved slowly on the ground beside him, outlining a circle.

"The lightless moon dwells forever in the night sky, and under the dark moon, all things in the world are hidden, and the holy name of our lord Luna is praised, and I am given the gaze of the moon. At the end of the prayer, the circle of the ground was outlined at the same time, and the range of the finger was suddenly rippled, and when the ripple subsided, a light screen appeared within the circle, showing the surrounding scene. The image is blurry, but it can still be barely seen.

The Moon Gaze, a high-level divine technique of the Dark Moon series, connects with the Lightless Moon and reveals what someone has experienced not long ago.

Like all high-level magic techniques, the Moon Gaze is highly expensive and restrictive, requiring not only what the person touches, but also no more than three minutes to touch, and the target person's rank cannot be higher than that of the caster. It's a very limited magic technique, but it's just right here.

Soon, Macajalen's image was reflected on the light screen.

"Huh, why is it so vague. Moria lay on the ground holding her chin, and stretched out her finger to poke at the light screen in dissatisfaction, "It was clear before. ”

"Smack. Ruthlessly knocked off the troublemaker's hand, Xiuer rolled his eyes, and said angrily, "This is an otherworldly projection, separated by a space barrier, it would be good to be effective, and there must be interference in the picture." If it weren't for Sasa's previous statement that the essence of this place was still Pavatiga, this kind of divine art could also penetrate in, and I didn't plan to waste my spiritual power. ”

"You two idiots stop bickering. The female swordsman weakly protested, "Look at the picture." ”

"Huh?" the two of them raised their eyebrows, glancing at Saf with a dangerous gaze, "Okay, we'll remember it for you, and when we get back, hehehehe." ”

"Ahhh

"Stupid, we've been watching. Shul slapped the female swordsman in the back again, causing steam to almost bubble up the top of the girl's head. But he's right, he's been watching, because Macageren's reaction is really not normal.

The halfling is like a one-man show.

It was obviously an empty environment, but he fled quickly along the street as if something was chasing after him.

It's easy to explain if it's just running away, but his actions are more than just running away.

Dodging, dodging, rolling, jumping, as if something he couldn't see was attacking him all the time, and in the process of escaping, he kept making various moves in order to avoid these invisible attacks.

The most incomprehensible thing is that while he is doing these actions, he occasionally smiles and says a few words to the side of no one, almost as if there are teammates following him and dodging enemies with him. Perhaps in his perception, he is strategically shifting with his teammates, trying to get rid of the enemy's pursuit and find a point of disconnection.

"Bang", the light screen flashed suddenly, and finally dimmed, and the ground returned to its original state, but the mood of the people who saw this scene was not so easy to calm down.

He ...... What do you see?" Saf's face turned a little pale, and the strange state of the halfling even made her feel a trace of fear from the bottom of her heart.

"I don't know, maybe it's us, I'm afraid in his eyes, it's still with us. Shuer sighed, "To be able to do this, the ability of these plants is more difficult than I imagined, I thought they could only forcibly control the body of a living person, but I didn't expect that it could actually affect the perception of a living person and make the controlled person take the initiative to do what they ordered, which is much more powerful than forcibly controlling it." ”

Indeed, if the parasite is a shadow chaser, many abilities cannot be used at all when the plant forcibly controls them, but now it is different, and now the controlled person Macageren can fully exert his full strength. A hostile Gold-tier thief is a serious threat to any teammate, especially in the event of a fight, it is really a headache to show mercy to him.

"We ...... We...... Could it be that we are all the same as Macageren now?" Saph clenched the hilts of her two-handed swords tightly, as if the weapon could give her enough courage, "Could it be that we have all been separated a long time ago, and everything we see is an illusion created by plants, in fact, now Shure and Moria, you two are not here at all, and I am also acting in front of a cloud of air like Macageren?"

Saf couldn't go on because her mouth was gagged.

The warm touch on the lips, the familiar smell in the nose, the hug that binds the heart, everything is as before.

"What about now, do you still think it's a hallucination?" the playful voice echoed in her ears, a hateful, but warm voice that she would never forget.

"Bastard, Shul is a bastard. Cursed weakly in her head, but the girl's heart was filled with sweetness, even if it was an illusion, it was not bad, if it was always by his side, even if it was an illusion?

"Yo Yo, Yo Yo, I'm a deer, Yo Yo Yo, I didn't see anything. ”

This is definitely not an illusion, sometimes the deer roars, and sometimes the forest spirit of human words makes the girl grit her teeth and accept the reality. Only that stupid Moriah could say something that tickles the roots of his teeth, and those plants can't do such a nasty thing, so it's not an illusion!

"Moria!" Saph screamed, covering her face, and slammed into the back of the forest spirit's deer, lying on her stomach in the soft fluff and not looking up.

"In the name of the divine, the power of the divine is strengthened. Shur suddenly tore off a page from the holy text, raised his hand and threw it into the air, and the pages floating in the air turned into countless points of light in the blink of an eye, quickly penetrating into everyone's body.

Each sacred book is copied by the clergy himself in communicating the state of the gods, which embodies the power of the faith of the clergy and is also contaminated with the power of the gods. Tearing off the holy book is equivalent to directly borrowing the power of the gods in the true sense, which is completely different from the effect of simply releasing divine magic.

"Then you don't have to worry, Sasa, I don't believe that they can break through the power of divinity. Hehe, now let's see these things hiding in the shadows, and see what other tricks they have. ”

Yes, of course.

Just before Shuer's words fell, a sword light swept behind him.
