Chapter 444: Inheritance
With her heart pounding and her breathing getting heavier, Tali didn't know how long or far she had been running through the woods, but it seemed like this time was a little different from the previous eight.
Maybe it was because the long running was really tiring, and although she was still full of trepidation at this time, the hysteria was gone, and she was finally able to concentrate and start thinking about what was different this time.
After thinking for a long time, Tali slapped her thigh violently: "I know, I didn't go back this time!"
Although Tali had been in an abnormal state just now, it could be inferred from her current physical state that she had run much farther this time than the previous eight times, and if you had lived from the experience of the previous eight times, she should have returned to the lake a long time ago, but the fact that she was still in the woods made the already desperate Tali rekindle the flame of hope in her heart.
"I can get out!" Tali kept cheering herself on.
However, the wish is good, the reality is cruel, and just when Tali thinks that she has finally found a way out of this strange woods when the blind cat finally meets the dead mouse this time, a group of roadblocks stand in her way.
The new creatures took a variety of forms, some resembling tigers, some resembling brown bears, but the same thing was that their entire bodies were composed entirely of electric light, and as soon as they appeared, they showed considerable hostility towards Tali, an uninvited guest, and although they did not let out any roars, she immediately felt that if she insisted on continuing her way, she would definitely be under siege.
However, finally finding hope to get out of this jungle circle, how can Tali give up halfway, can only bite the bullet.
Her weapon had been left there when she returned to the lake for the eighth time, so she could only deal with the unknown monsters in front of her with her bare hands.
To Tali's surprise, although the monsters' attacks were aimed at her vital points, she herself was not injured and bleeding, but instead had a piercing pain.
At the beginning, the belief that she must escape supported Tali to endure the pain, but as she was bitten or slapped more often, the pain seemed to accumulate and became more and more intense, and in the end, seeing that there was no hope of breaking through, no matter how unwilling she was, Tali could only choose to run back.
The new monsters seem to be designed to stop Tali from moving on, and once she retreats, the monsters stop attacking, but still follow her not far behind, and if she wants to turn back, it will be a great punishment.
Just like that, Tali was desperate to find herself back at the lake.
Regaining her weapons and regaining her confidence, she fought the monsters again.
Before, with her bare hands, she could only be beaten passively, and she couldn't touch the group of monsters with very flexible body skills at all, she thought that the situation would be much better after having weapons, but she helplessly found that the monsters seemed to be incorporeal, and the steel ball passed through their bodies without hindrance, failing to bring them any damage.
After repeated attempts to no avail, Tali had to give up doing useless work.
Seeing that Tali had stopped, the monsters stopped attacking her, but instead of retreating, they lay down on the edge of the woods, as if to keep an eye on Tali and prevent her from returning to the woods.
They stared at each other until Tali was back in her prime, and the monsters didn't have any intention of making a move, as if their duty was just to keep her here.
Just as Tali was about to break the jar and try her best to break it again, the lake suddenly boiled.
Before she could figure out what was happening, she was sucked into the lake by a huge suction, and the monsters on the shore also turned into lightning bolts and sank into the lake the moment Tali was submerged.
"Are you going to die?" Before falling into the lake, Tali's heart was surprisingly calm, there was no hysteria, only a faint regret haunting her heart.
No matter how you look at it, once you fall into the lake full of electricity, there is no way to survive, but just when Tali is ready to face death, she is surprised to find that she is unharmed.
Not only that, but she seems to be able to breathe freely in the water of this lake.
When I opened my eyes and looked around, my eyes were full of blue arcs, and I couldn't see anything else at all, not only did I not feel any discomfort, but I also felt a comfortable tingling feeling.
Since there was no danger, Tali decided to go to the bottom of the lake, but when she tried to speed up her fall, she found that she couldn't control her body at all.
Helpless, she can only resign herself to fate.
I don't know how long later, just when she was about to fall asleep, a mellow voice suddenly sounded in her ears: "Child, you are finally back." ”
There was so much emotion in the voice, like relief, like a sigh, that Tali felt the urge to cry as soon as she heard it.
"You...... Who is it?" asked Tali tentatively.
But the voice fell silent after saying that, and no matter how much she shouted, there was no response.
However, Tali didn't bother to inquire anymore, because it wasn't long before a dazzling blue light appeared in her sight, and the electric light that filled the lake seemed to emanate from it.
Even when she was close, Tali couldn't tell what was inside the blob, and with a flash of light, she found herself in another world.
The mountains were towering, and the lightning in the sky made up for them, constantly hitting the peaks, but they did not cause any damage to the mountains, as if the mountains and rivers here would absorb the power of thunder and lightning.
"Hey, anyone?" shouted Tali after the initial amazement, quickly losing interest in the woods that were even more monotonous than before.
"Son, come to me. The voice that made her feel kind from before sounded again, "After a long time, you have finally come here, and the inheritance of my clan has finally not been broken in my hands." ”
Hearing this, Tali was confused, and couldn't help but ask, "Hey, who are you, why do I think I'm familiar with you, why do you say I'm finally back, and what's that inheritance, are you looking for the wrong person?"
"Child, if you find me, all your questions will be answered......" The voice slowly faded until it could no longer be heard, and in front of Tali, a path paved with lightning appeared, and at the end of the road, above the peak.
