Chapter 19: Staggered

I can't forget what happened that day, when I came out of that hell, I had no companions by my side, and I even doubted that I was still alive, until the cold rain woke me up from my nightmare, and I breathed a sigh of relief and told myself that I was really alive. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info That day, in that palace of ice and snow, in that hat that was always smiling, that crimson monster, brought me an unforgettable torment, maybe this is also one of the curses of the snow witch. Excerpt from "Memoirs of the Winter Forest" -

Everyone who was stared at by the scarlet vertical eyes felt a terrifying aura pressing on their bodies, and even felt a little difficult to take a step back, at this moment Clotea and Ron stood in place, looking at the light in front of them and seemed to be thinking about something, whether the ice and snow lost in the mouth of the mad hatter was the next test, feeling the performance of Mr. Hat before, Ron was bottomless in his heart, and as for the group of people who were separated from them, they were even more exaggerated and ready to use magic to blast at the vertical eye in the air. Didn't the performance of the magic just now make them realize something?

I saw a few guys with columnar magic guides on their shoulders stuff something into it, and the magic guide began to light up a magic circuit at the position of the red vertical eye, and when the magic circuit was extremely bright, a terrifying sonic boom accompanied by huge smoke flew towards the vertical eye.

"I say, what are they doing?" Ron tugged at the corner of Lacrotia's coat and watched as the thing exploded in mid-air, shaking the whole palace and mixing the curses and wails of the people, like an interesting play.

"I don't know. The guys who were with them were all out of luck. Crodyanunu mouthed, pointing to the places where most of the ground had been blown up, burying the bodies of many people, and you could see a lot of twitching hands and feet, and Ron had a black line.

"Hahaha, it's funny, if only you were all so funny. The vertical eye of the sky smiled exaggeratedly, and then the darkness obscured people's vision, and everyone could only see a little light from the huge ice building in front of them, and it slowly spoke, "Come in, magicians, I hope you have fun." ”

"It seems that if you don't move forward, you won't be able to leave. Ron said, taking the lead in the middle.

"Hey, don't you say hello?" Clotea looked at the darkness behind her, and when she turned her head, Ron had disappeared in front of her, she stomped her foot hatefully, and followed Ron with her breath, and the others saw that there was no way to retreat, and they walked in helplessly towards the only point of light.

Only Flender, who changed from standing to sitting, remained motionless.

"Hey, boy, why don't you go in?" The Mad Hatter saw that everyone except Flender had entered the ice building, and immediately put away the posture of the "Demon King", changed back into the tattered hat, and floated in front of him, "Aren't you afraid of me?"

"Why are you afraid?" Flender opened his eyes and looked at the hat in front of him, "It's a pleasure to see my old friend here. He stood up, and gently stroked the hat with his outstretched palm, caressing every fold of it, and the hat did not speak, but inexplicably lifted the brim, as if a shy person was secretly watching this person under it.

Why does it feel so familiar? It seems like I met him a long, long time ago.

"Almost, it's time for me to go in. He patted the top of his hat, pressed the brim of his hat down, and walked towards the ice building.

"What about the Mad Hatter, who will be your master in this life?" he waved his hand, as if saying goodbye to an old friend, and stepped into the light and shadow, and said silently in his heart. And the hat turned in a circle, and the brim of the hat was raised again, and a little boy appeared under the hat, 7 or 8 years old, wearing a large dress, his hands were completely covered in the sleeves, and the number 13 was embroidered on his chest, he was suspended in mid-air, looking at Flender's disappearing figure, his eyes were indescribably confused.

In the ice building, the darkness continues, and everyone's field of vision is only 5,6 meters, and every time the magic is lit up, it is quickly swallowed by the darkness, and every time it is used, it consumes a lot. Soon, many people sat in the dark and worried.

Ron, who took the first step, was quickly caught by Crodia, one side laughed awkwardly, and the other took out a frying pan and waved it coldly.

"Ahh

"Oh, this. I felt very good about you last time, so I kept it with me, rest assured, an ordinary pot will not leave a scar. Clotea explained gloomily.

“......”

After a friendly reunion between the two, Chang began to test the space, and found that the magic passed much faster than usual, and when he was preparing for more experiments, several voices came over.

"Damn, what the hell is this place, why doesn't the lighting magic work? And the body is getting heavier and heavier. ”

"Don't mention it, damn that chick of Crodia, don't you let us catch it, as for making us lose so much?"

"Okay, okay, everyone has losses in that encirclement and suppression, one of my sons and two grandsons have been dragged into the water by Terry's boy, if that girl is caught by Lao Tzu, she will definitely be worse off than dead. As he spoke, Crotia had already clenched the dagger in his hand, and before Ron could hold it, he saw a red light pass in front of him, and then a sudden sound of falling to the ground appeared in the darkness.

"Hey, what's wrong? What's going on over there?"

"It's okay, it's okay, it's like kicking a brick. A voice responded.

"Kicking the bricks?"

"Yes, kicked the bricks. Before the man could react, a gentle breath had been blowing in his ears, his hair was rising, agitating all over his body, and then he turned around, only to find that the light around him had shrunk, and it was pitch black, only the wind that blew made him tremble, he called out to his partner, but there was no response, his hands holding the weapon began to tremble, and he called his friend again, and the answer to him was a wind that broke through the air.

"Pretending to be a ghost. The magic array around him lit up, as if shrouded in a purple light, and the red dagger went straight against the lit magic array, he smiled coldly, knowing that the opportunity could not be missed, he waved the weapon in his hand and slashed at the enemy, and when he saw the person coming, it was a dead soul. The pale face was burned by the flames, and there were two terrifying holes in his eyes, looking at the person who looked like he was with him, under the swing of the weapon, the head of the person who came was cut off, and it rolled to the feet of the man, and the burning and pitch-black eye holes met his gaze, which made his magic stagnate, and his good defense was much weaker all of a sudden. He was sweating profusely, panting, and the magic around him could no longer be maintained, and it shattered with a pop, followed by the blood-colored dagger. He resisted the key point in horror, but did not realize that the real target of the dagger was his lower back. The blood flowed like an infusion. He gasped, feeling the murderous aura in the air, but didn't notice anything.

"The lack of oxygen to the brain due to massive bleeding was a mistake, and magic could not last long in this darkness, so it was a very wrong decision to pluck up defense. Ron's voice floated into the other's mind clearly, and the man was half-kneeling, his weapon propped up on the ground, his head hanging as if he was seriously injured. He waited expectantly for the enemy to come forward and finish him one last time, but after waiting for a long time, the other party did not appear except to speak.

"The poet once said that a weak magician is also a magician, and it must not be treated by ordinary people. Ron's words sent chills through his heart, and he knew that his disguise was meaningless, so he tried to muster a little strength to attack the source of the sound.

"A powerful opponent like you deserves respect, but it's too careless at the moment, and with a lot of blood loss, you don't even have the strength to walk, and forcibly using magic will only hasten your death. Ron continued, distracting the other man, "You know, the echoes produced in this place can only be picked up where you are standing at the moment. If you don't do the math, where am I now?" the ethereal voice made the enemy even more agitated, and the strong wind that blew up the moment he swung his weapon kicked up countless ice chips.

"Shut up !!" once again forcibly instigated the mana, and the area-of-effect attack caused a lot of vibrations, and countless ice edges fell from above. In the next moment, a blood-colored dagger had appeared in the center of his eyebrows.

"It's a pity. The attacks are too scattered. Ron's figure appeared in front of the man, and with his last glance he tried to remember the other man's face, but in the darkness he could only see him clutching a bleeding arm, and then fell into darkness. Crotea put away her dagger and looked at the injured Ron with a concerned gaze.

"You're still so impulsive. Ron looked at Crothea with some reproach, knowing that she was just carried away by anger, and after saying a word, he searched for the other party's finances.

"I'm a little uncomfortable with your sudden nagging. "Crotea threw Ron a book," the first guy found. ”

"It's useless, I can't use magic yet. Not for me. He said this, but still put the book in his pocket, "Look at the harvest of the battle just now." Clodia, your assassination is getting more and more proficient, the perfect one-hit kill, if it weren't for the second guy who was too strong, you would have done it. Our visibility has also been improved at this time, and I don't know if it was the effect of their killing. ”

"Regarding this, I feel that after a certain distance away from you, the field of vision is much less, but after killing one of the other people, it returns to its original state, and after you come, the visibility is improved again. Clotea put away her magic and said as she played with the dagger in her hand.

"In this way, visibility can be increased by looting and combining. Ron cupped his cheeks and stood where the man had just stood, "From what I said just now, I probably know the distance of this space, it's huge." Depending on the path you've walked, we'll be able to roughly identify some obstacles. According to the general architectural style of this continent, we can also judge the basic structure of this space. The next step is to make some plans to weaken the adventurer's team. ”

"I hate planning, and I'll never be able to keep up with the joy of my slash. Clotian raised the dagger in his hand.

"That's no way, we're too weak, and if we're besieged, there's no chance at all. Ron spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders, and bit his thumb in analysis.

"I'm going to find my way. Crotea shook her dagger and disappeared in place.

Where darkness and light are intertwined, what awaits everyone is ......
