Chapter Seventy-Five: Passing Death

(The chapter sent yesterday was actually messed up.,And the chapter number is wrong.,I didn't find it.,I'm really sorry.,Readjust it now.,Today's update will be the same at night)

The dark night sky, the yellow sand in the sky, and the silvery moonlight.

The moon light hangs in the distant night sky, and the silver-white full moon exudes soft moonlight, bringing the breath of life and driving away the haze of the world. The silver moonlight shone on the ground, reflecting the continuous desert and the mountains of white bones piled up on the desert. In the distance, under the silver moonlight, a pretty silhouette stood at the top of the sea of corpses and bones, looking up at the night sky with a spear.

The scene in front of me is lonely, sad, and indescribably poignant, which makes people can't help but indulge in it beyond fear, and can't extricate themselves.

Perhaps feeling Catherine's gaze, the figure under the silver moon slowly turned its head, and the two people, two pairs of eyes, and four gazes, seemed to cross endless time and space, crossed the distance between life and death, and met in the air.

The scene is fleeting, and Catherine's eyes darken, and she finds herself back in the tunnel, standing safe and sound outside the wind, and Pannis is by her side.

"I'm ...... Still alive?" Catherine had just finished speaking, when two bloody arrows suddenly burst out from her body, blood spurting out of her neck and abdomen, and dyeing her petticoat red in the blink of an eye.

"Let's stop the bleeding first, and then destroy the mechanism, or I'll probably lose too much blood when Lina comes over." Pannis pulled out the vial and handed it over.

"What happened just now?" Catherine sleepwalked into the bottle, as if she had not recovered from the crisis just now, and asked after a long time as if she had just woken up from a dream, "What did I see?"

"Just now, it's just a little trick, a little trick to save your life. Pannis shrugged his shoulders and said, "As for what you see, how do I know, maybe it's a dying hallucination." ”

"Really?" Catherine asked with suspicion as she put medicine on her stomach to stop the bleeding, "It always feels so real, it doesn't look like a hallucination." ”

"Who knows. Pannis took out a bandage and bandaged Catherine's neck: "Hallucinations, if they are not real, how can they be delusional, right?"

"Maybe. Catherine, who escaped death, didn't bother to pursue it, hastily stopped the bleeding, and touched the wound through the bandage: "Your little trick is really timely, if it is half a second late, it is estimated that I have been cut into several pieces." You were able to discover this trap before I did, right, you seemed to have shouted a sentence before, right?"

"yes, that's what I thought of. Pannis nodded, "It's a pity that I figured it out too late, and it was almost irretrievable, sorry." ”

"Hey, you saved me, and then said sorry to me in turn?" Catherine laughed, "You guy...... Forget it, anyway, thank you very much. Hey, listen to people, why did you suddenly run there. ”

"Huh, what are you talking about?" Pannis had already run two meters away as Catherine spoke, crouching on the ground and wiping his fingers in the air, and when he withdrew his fingers, his fingertips were already rubbed with a bright blood stain.

"Ha, you're shy when you hear thank you. Catherine directly pierced Pannis's cover, but did not add an additional attack, but crouched side by side with Pannis. Looking ahead with an annoyed expression: "This trap is too insidious. ”

The invisible trap in front of the two of them is actually very simple, just a few criss-crossing wires. The wire is as slender as a hair, but it is very strong, and the two ends are fixed to the top and bottom or left and right sides of the rock wall, and it is tense tightly, and it is like an invisible blade that is horizontal, and even if the body is unconsciously rubbed, it may leave a bloody mark.

Such a trap cannot be effective in most places, and even if it does, it will not be fatal. Because although the wire is slender, it is not invisible in itself, and it can still be found by careful observation, and when a person collides with it, it will not use too much force, so it is difficult to cut through the defense of a high-level professional that has been strengthened many times when he advances.

But in such a specific environment now, the meaning of this trap is completely different, in the environment of strong winds, people can't even open their eyes, they can only squint their eyes and grope forward, and they can't see these inconspicuous wires at all. At the same time, the location of the trap is very delicate, the intruder has just taken the first step out of the strong wind range, and the miscalculated wind force makes the speed and strength of the intruder's advance reach a maximum, plus because of the air flow, the thrust exerted by the air flow from behind increases the impact force of the intruder when hitting the trap. The combined strength of these two was enough for a tough wire to easily cut a high-level professional without armor and a Fighting Qi shield in half.

"I'm going to destroy this silk trap. Pannis stood up and drew the knight's sword from Catherine's waist, "You'd better stand away from the wall, and then stretch out the shield, I suspect the trap is not over." ”

"And the follow-up?" Catherine hid seven or eight meters away and stood against the wall, watching Pannis raise the long sword high above her body: "Hey, if there is really a trap, aren't you just attacked by the trap?"

Pannis was stunned, hehe laughed a few times, stepped back a few meters in embarrassment, waved his long sword into the air, and turned around and ran at the same time. The vacuum slash formed by the Dou Qi shot out from the tip of the sword along the arc of Pannis's swing, and the half-moon-shaped Dou Qi blade cut diagonally into the taut wire, cutting all the wires together, making a sound as the bowstring broke.

The sound continued, dozens of spears made of metal stabbed down from the top of the tunnel at a very fast speed, the sharp spear tips easily sank into the rocky ground, and when the spear array slowly withdrew into the rock at the top of the tunnel, the ground had left a dense small hole, just covering the space of one meter on each side of the wire trap.

"It's a serial trap. Catherine looked at it with palpitations, even if someone discovered the existence of the trap before it was cut into pieces by coincidence, and destroyed the trap with a weapon in time, I am afraid that he would not be able to escape the ensuing gunfire, unless he has always maintained the state of vindictive shield. However, in this environment, the fighting energy is concentrated in the body to strengthen the body to stimulate the potential, and no one has the spare strength to maintain the existence of the shield, obviously the trap arranger has taken into account various circumstances, and is good at calculating people's hearts and anticipating ability, so that with only a few simple magic arrays and a few wires, a gold-level professional can easily force a gold-level professional to a certain death situation.

"It should be gone. The light from the goblin illuminator in the distance was no longer enough to illuminate the surroundings, and Pannis turned on the crystal energy lantern for emergency use in spite of the consumption, holding the lamp and looking around, and only breathed a sigh of relief after a while: "At least I didn't find that there are still traps." ”

"The more I think about it, the more scared I become. Catherine sighed, "It seems that I've been a little too relaxed lately, and my sensitivity to danger has decreased, and it's a miracle that I survived this time, and I'm getting more and more curious about how you did it, Pennis." ”

"Forget about it. Pannis said, "It's my secret, please keep it a secret for me." ”

Catherine was stunned for a moment, but finally nodded: "Okay, including Lina and Vivien, I won't say anything to anyone." ”

"Thank you. Pannis nodded gratefully: "Okay, ready to work, the three of them are probably impatient to wait." ”

"Good. Catherine picked up the sword that was thrown aside by Pannis, cheered up and asked, "I'm in charge of the destruction, and you're in charge of telling me where the destruction is." ”

"I'm not professional in this area, so I can't necessarily find all of them, but destroying some of them can greatly reduce the wind, and it will be easy for them to come. Pannis groped on the rock wall, sensing the flow of energy inside the rock wall, and looked for a while before pointing to a location and saying, "Here, stab it directly." ”

With a soft sound, the long sword infused with fighting energy plunged deep into the rock wall, without a straight handle, easily adding a broken trace to the magic circle hidden inside the rock wall, making the entire magic circle lose its effect in an instant.

"Hey, it's out of the wind. Catherine asked, confused, "I thought the circle would be carved into the wind." ”

"Hurricanes are usually generated with the circle as the activation point. "But if you do something special, you can extend the distance of the hurricane by a certain length, and that length is manageable, so that's why the wind is constant from beginning to end," Pannis explained. ”

"It's a scheming trap, and it's up to them to think of it. Catherine swung her sword into the position designated by Pannis, destroying the second circle: "But I'm also curious, it stands to reason that you shouldn't have seen those wires, how did you find the trap in advance?"

"Actually, I didn't find out. Pannis continued to grope for the wall: "I just suddenly found the answer to the question in my mind, so I guessed the existence of this trap. ”

"What doubt?" asked Catherine.

"If there is no trap, then this wind corridor is actually not lethal. Pannis explained: "Any professional who does not rush forward hard will not be harmed, even if he is reluctant to move forward, at most he will be blown back and hit the wall, and generally will not kill anyone." ”

"That's true. Catherine stabbed another sword: "Is there a problem?"

"Remember the trap we encountered when we first passed through the portal?" asked Pannis, "That trap looks like this, too." None of the spikes could have stabbed the person who had just teleported in, so it seemed completely harmless, but in reality, if someone was affected, it was almost certain that they would die, unless they were not afraid of death at all. ”

"Like you?" said Catherine with a smile.

"Well, yes, like me. Pannis nodded and continued, "So, the first trap seems to leave room for people, but in fact it leaves no room at all, and is one of the most dangerous traps. So I've always wondered, why did this storm corridor suddenly become so mild and not lethal at all?"

"No wonder you have to come with me. Catherine suddenly realized.

"Yes, it's because of this doubt that I've been worried about whether there will be a murderous intention hidden behind the gentleness like the entrance. I pondered all the way, and suddenly thought of the existence of this kind of trap, and after shouting that you found that you couldn't hear it, I used my little trick as soon as possible. Pannis pointed to the corner of the wall and pointed to the last circle he could find: "Fortunately, there was no delay, and in retrospect, it was really dangerous." ”

"So it's a miracle that I survived. Catherine pulled her sword from the rock wall and put it into its scabbard lightly: "Let's go, let's see if the hurricane goes away." ”
