Chapter 232: The Place of Bones
Everyone, including Pannis, has imagined the Bones Ground many times, as the deepest layer of the Forbidden Land, as a barrier in the core of the Death Forest, the Bones Burial Land has always been a very mysterious existence. In the more than 3,000 years since the Quaternary www.biquge.info, there are no more than ten intelligent creatures that have entered the place of buried bones and left alive without any evidence, and there has not been one in the past three hundred years, so the place of buried bones is a very strange place for everyone. No one knows what the environment is there, and even the few records in history only briefly mention the place where the bones are buried, so everyone can only rely on imagination and speculation to imagine what the place of bones looks like.
However, until they really stepped into the place of bones and saw the place of bones with their own eyes, everyone guessed that their conjecture about the place of bones was completely wrong, and it can be said that this place was beyond everyone's expectations.
Walking through the dense forest that blocked the view, everyone was greeted by a tender green meadow, and the green grass grew close to the ground, stretching into the distance, and finally out of sight. The green carpet of grass is dotted with a large number of colorful flowers, with the breeze blowing, the fragrance of wild grass shoots mixed with the faint fragrance of wild flowers wafts on the meadow, and the early morning sun shines warmly on the meadow, making people irrepressible to rise a kind of urge to lie on it and roll.
If you don't see it with your own eyes, I'm afraid no one will believe that one of the most dangerous places in the world, the place where everyone is dreaded, is actually such a beautiful dream-like place, compared with the various dangerous imaginations in everyone's minds, there is a huge gap.
"Actually, if you think about it, it makes sense. Catherine smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "The danger here is only that it is close to the core of the Death Forest and covered by the forbidden land of life, not that its environment is sinister, and even if it is very dangerous, it is not necessarily because of its own reasons." ”
"It's better to be careful. Instead of relaxing, Pannis reminded, "It's not really that simple here, maybe there are dangers hidden that can't be detected with the eyes." ”
"Of course, in the wilderness, the more beautiful the existence, the more dangerous it is often fraught. Catherine nodded: "The colorful silver snake has the most colorful appearance, but at the same time has the strongest poison in the living creature, it only takes two seconds to kill a sturdy bull, the rainbow bird is said to be as gorgeous as a real rainbow after spreading its wings, but where they appear, it must be accompanied by bloodthirsty vines and hunter flowers, especially are always dangerous, I am afraid this is no exception." ”
"Could this be the same as the one we encountered when we first entered the Forest of Death...... Well, it's called the Weeping Silk Tree, and that kind of thing is hidden, the difference is that it doesn't rely on worms in the ground, but eats people by itself. As the team cautiously moved forward on the lawn of the boneyard, Lina looked left and right and said, "Maybe when we don't know where we're going, a man-eating flower will emerge from the ground and swallow Vivien in one gulp." ”
"So you're an idiot. The mage girl glanced at Lina, too lazy to think with her about why she was swallowed, and said sarcastically: "No matter what there is here, there will be no carnivorous plants, you are fundamentally mistaken, it is really sympathetic." ”
"Huh, won't there be?" Lina ignored Vivien's pitiful eyes and asked suspiciously, "Why not?"
"Are you going to starve those plants to death?" Vivien asked rhetorically, "Don't you notice that there aren't many twisted souls here? ”
"Don't quarrel just yet. Pannis suddenly stopped, rubbed his chin and said, "We seem to be in trouble." ”
"What's wrong?" the girls raised their weapons for the first time, and even Dilly raised his tail, and then there was peace all around, nothing out of the ordinary, not even a twisted soul to be seen. Catherine held her iris shield and moved in a circle along the outskirts of the procession, but after a few circles, she had to ask in a low voice, "What is the trouble, we don't see anything." ”
"Didn't you notice?" said Pannis, smiling wryly, "Look back in the direction we came." ”
"It's nothing in the direction you came from, magic, true vision. The priest tilted his head and thought about it, and suddenly stretched out his hand and wiped it on his eyes, the true vision of the magic that could see through the illusion had been blessed on him, and in an instant, everything in front of the girl's eyes changed to black and white, but in the direction of coming, there was still no difference from what he had seen before. Lina was very puzzled and asked puzzledly: "My current true vision, except for the top-level illusion like Master Antuine, which can't be completely seen, will have no problem with the others, but I haven't found anything abnormal." ”
"No, there is a problem. Vivien's face stiffened a little, and she said hurriedly: "Didn't you pay attention, when did we go so far? Everyone has only been away from the dense forest for less than five minutes, can five minutes have this effect?"
Many times, some obvious problems are often ignored by people because of habits, just like what the girls see now, the dense forest that everyone left only a few minutes ago has become very distant in the field of vision, even if Vivian released the Eagle Eye Technique to herself, the vision is still a little blurry, which means that the distance from the dense forest has been reduced to four or five kilometers away. However, everyone did not sprint with all their might, and in a few minutes, it was impossible to get out of such a long distance.
"Go back and try. Catherine and Pannis exchanged glances, and Pannis took out a metal drill and inserted it into the lawn as a marker, and Catherine beckoned, "Just follow the footprints you came from, and see if you can walk back in five minutes." ”
Under the leadership of the knight girl, the team of seven began to turn around and walk back, this time different from when they came, everyone has increased their vigilance, always keeping an eye on the dense forest in front and the metal drill in the rear, so as to judge the current distance of the team. However, something even stranger happened, after five minutes had passed, the distance between the team and the metal drill in the rear was not even 500 meters, and as for the dense forest ahead, it was still blurred.
"It's better not to separate. Pannis said in a deep voice, "Don't move until you know why." ”
"Strange, why is that?Is the Bone Ground only one-way?" Catherine didn't ask Pannis, but said to herself, "Or is something interfering with our perception?" (to be continued.) )
