Chapter Forty-Eight: The Gauntlet of Lightlessness

Twilight is thick.

The yellow glow of the setting sun rendered everything he saw dreamy and unreal, and Ye Xiao slowed down, feeling as if he was about to walk into a huge piece of translucent amber.

Wooden and stone buildings are scattered on both sides of the road, and the uncrowded or even somewhat sparse houses are hidden among the trees, giving people a sense of relaxation.

In the past, it was in a hurry, but this time it was different, Ye Xiao walked towards the mission area with a relaxed posture, looking around, everything around seemed familiar, but there was an inexplicable strangeness.

A small wooden house crawling with plants was built very close to the path, Ye Xiao stood on the edge of the brown doorway of the wooden house, the path branched off under his feet and stretched to both sides, one directly connected to the door of the Oak Tavern a few dozen meters away on the left, and the other extended to the wooded and dimly lit mission area.

The trees in the safe zone are not as dense as those in the mission area, but most of them have a wide canopy, and the lower edge of the canopy is mostly flush with the surrounding roofs, making them look like large half-dyed orange plant canopies.

Ye Xiao walked out of the shadow of the tree, the warmth of the sun shone on his body, and the twilight sunlight was evenly swayed under the magic cover, which made people squint their eyes unconsciously, but it didn't take long, as if it was like passing through an extremely thin water curtain, the warm feeling was no longer there, and the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped and became cold.

The security area and the mission area are clearly separated, bright and warm while deep and dim, Ye Xiao raised his arms and crossed his fingers tightly in front of his chest, so that the gloves on his hands fit more closely in his palms.

Naturally, this time I went out to the mission area with some kind of purpose, so of course the glove is not an ordinary glove, but a special alchemy product - a glove of lightless enchantment.

As the name describes, the main enchantment effect of the black gloves on Ye Xiao's hands is to absorb all kinds of light rays.

Of course, as an enchanted weapon, the enchantment effect of absorbing all kinds of light is too shabby, so the Gauntlet of Light Enchantment can also mask the casting fluctuations of small strength and the alchemy reaction that is not violent. And the above two main enchantment effects are indispensable and important for the purpose of Ye Xiao's trip, so he will spend a lot of points to buy various materials, and even when he found that a major material was missing, he did not hesitate to spend more than six times the original price of the task points to let the Shadow Alliance purchase a black tarantula spider silk on his behalf, so Ye Xiao, who had long decided to refine this enchantment, delayed until the materials were ready today, and then made this lightless enchantment glove.

And when the matless gloves were successfully made, Ye Xiao, who had been impatient for a long time, immediately set off for the mission area, but when he was about to approach the mission area, Ye Xiao forced himself to calm down, and adjusted his mentality while slowly admiring the familiar building plants in the safety area, this is because the fluctuating mood is very unfavorable for the next action.

Everything must be fully prepared, even if it is the mood before the action, Ye Xiao turned around and urged his spiritual power to stimulate the self-made enchanted boots on his feet, the cyan light instantly lit up, and a gust of wind exploded under his feet, and at the same time, Ye Xiao, whose body was slightly squatting, also instantly crossed the distance of five meters in an instant, and sprinted lightly and quickly towards the depths of the mission area.

All the way to the dust, the stirring dust was carried by the whirlwind, and followed Ye Xiao's figure all the way, and finally disappeared into the dense and dim dense forest......

Straight and thick trees, low glowing plants, this is the most impressive mission border area for Ye Xiao.

The low plants have long leaves, and the blue spots spread along the veins of the leaves, but most of them do not cover the entire leaf, but they also make most of the long leaves translucent, as if they were glass crystal products that emit blue light.

"Huh!"

The blue light with an extremely limited enveloping range shook for a moment, and a large number of blue light spots flew around, and the range of light shrouded suddenly expanded outward, but it could only climb to the middle of the tree trunk, and the higher place was still hidden in the darkness, invisibly stretching the distance and height of the darkness.

Immediately after that, there was a hurried sound of soots, and a somewhat exaggerated black rabbit with a shiny coat and a large body rushed out of the low glowing plant in a panic, and its body was also covered with blue points of light, and it was constantly flying around with its movements.

"Huh!"

A black shadow flashed, catching up with the huge black rabbit almost instantly.

"Whew-" "Whew-"

A black shadow barely as high as the black rabbit's waist staggered past the red-eyed rabbit, first with a faint sound of tearing cloth, followed by the sound of water dripping into the pan.

Although it was not very clear, it could still be seen with the help of the dim light around it, and there was a large laceration on the black rabbit's thick hind legs, which was constantly smoking, as if it had been violently corroded by some substance.

Of course, the wound was caused by the black shadow, and it was caused in a moment when the two were intertwined, so the black rabbit, which was jumping and running rapidly, immediately suffered from pain and fell to the ground and rolled unsteadily.

"Uhhh

The most eerie cry came from a black goat with a white exoskeleton on its face, chewing on the meat of a night rabbit with black hair, saliva dripping from the corners of its mouth falling to the ground with a loud sound, corroding small holes and stirring up white smoke.

"Uhhh

It's another weird scream that makes you want to shiver, the cry is full of bloodthirsty and cruel creatures**, and the black eyes hidden under the white exoskeleton are also full of malice and evil.

In fact, the night rabbit is not a good species, it is large and strong, with sharp teeth and elemental powers, it often treats other animals from the position of a predator, but in the world of elemental monsters, it is only the lowest kind of existence.

A black mist gradually climbed up the red eyes of the night rabbit, and at the same time, a thick dark element surged towards the wound on the leg, trying to contain and resist the corrosive corrosion of the black goat's saliva toxin.

The night rabbit was vigilant and careful of the black goat, and the black goat kept staring at the body of the night hare, as if he was choosing the position of the lower mouth, and kept moving his four hooves, and the black goat seemed to be a little impatient.

But whether it is vigilance or caution, whether it is evil and cruel or fear and cowardice, these are just relatively appropriate descriptions of the state of night rabbits and black goats, and the various emotions they show are just the embodiment of instinct, both from the biological body and from the elemental power, in essence, they are actually very different from the high-level thinking reaction of emotions, after all, they are just low-level elemental monsters, and bystanders will neither sympathize with the night rabbit nor hate the black goat, so Ye Xiao chose to turn a blind eye, but it was also because he was used to this kind of scene。

It has nothing to do with Ye Xiao's thoughts, the black goat was the first to find Ye Xiao who was dragging a blue light belt behind him at an extremely fast speed, while the night rabbit always focused on the black goat, so when it saw the black goat's hair exploded all over its body, as if it had seen an extremely terrifying creature, it couldn't even turn around.

Ye Xiao felt that he was flying as fast, and although the air carried resistance, it also gave the boots under his feet an endless source of help.

This is the feeling of Ye Xiao, whose speed is constantly rising, but he did not continue to accelerate, but tried to stabilize his state, and now it is just a warm-up, he wants to save his physical strength and energy for the next action.

Ye Xiao didn't care at all, he looked at the black goat and the harre, and then he focused on the black goat, but as if he had been bitten by some fierce creature, the black goat arched his back and jumped back violently, turned around and fled into the depths of the dark jungle without looking back.

Ye Xiao was speechless but kept walking, the blue point of light was pulled behind Ye Xiao by the whirlwind, and it looked like a blue starlight ribbon at a glance.

Without the slightest delay, Ye Xiao's figure also disappeared into the dark dense forest, and it was not until the remnants of the blue starlight ribbon also disappeared into the darkness that the night rabbit came to his senses and limped around and left the area.
