Chapter 5 It's a little cold this day
The road ahead is much more difficult than people think. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
It felt like a long way off, and even the hills in the rear had become blurred. But in fact, until now, people have not even stepped out of the wild grass on the outskirts of the sand ridge.
The most fatal thing is that the position of the Great Gobi in front of us is constantly changing in the eyes of people, and even its appearance is constantly distorted in the eyes of people, and the land of the widow seems to be near and far away.
In it, only veterans who have explored more than once outside know how to find the right way in the ever-changing light.
Because, whatever can't be found, it's already dead.
The gift of the increasingly scarce sunlight to this world is the cold.
The world of light has been lost, it has become colder and colder, and the sunrise and harvest season have become legends of the past.
While in the Vault, Kerr learns from the old mage that it should have been a hot summer day today. But nowadays, even the warmth can only be felt from the oil lamps in the shelter.
The Divine War has been going on for thirty years, and it seems like it's going to continue like this. Those who survived the past either fell on the way to escape, or because they were corroded by the demon spirits of constant turmoil and chaos, and even their souls were already decayed.
......
The demon spirit is the channel between matter and soul, on the contrary, the soul will also be affected by the demon spirit, just like the fire demon born of lust is mostly short-tempered, and the wood spirit of the child of nature is mostly undisputed...... Nowadays, the air is full of desperate and chaotic spirits, which not only corrode a person's body and accelerate his aging, but also cause those who have been in it for a long time to fall into the abyss of fear.
The young people who can still have the courage to go out and explore and find life are no longer the original older generation, they have never even seen the magnificence of the sunrise since they were born, and the younger generation can only hear and feel the clear scenery of the sky in the past from the mouths of the older generation.
In their eyes, this cold and dark world is the original face of this world.
......
Kerr tightened his robes, the most luxurious item in the entire Vault. This robe is a symbol of the mage that the old master put on him when he accepted him as a disciple. Well...... Although, now it's useless. But a generous robe is always a good piece of warm clothing. After all, the weather is getting colder. The beginning of the Dark Ages made it pointless to even think about spring, autumn, winter and summer.
Sniffing the air gently, even though everyone in the exploration team had cheap and practical isolation talismans on their bodies, the boy could still smell a deep sense of fear through the air. Those obsessions kept whispering in their ears about their dying despair.
It was annoying, but Kerr was surprised to find that their presence was the reason why he was able to settle down.
The obsession of floating around and the despair after death make it easier for Kerr to realize the fear, which informs the negative cries of the world around the boy.
Without superior force, but trying to survive, Kerr can only make the judgment of the least consequence through these cries he hears.
"Listen to negative voices by experiencing fear." Kerr's biggest secret is known only to the old mage, and the bearded Laws. He didn't trust the rest of the people, and he couldn't trust them.
You know, under the constant invasion of fear, trust can also deteriorate.
At the same time, in order to survive in this dangerous world, to perceive fear and despair - there is no more useful skill than this - to smell the smell of danger and avoid it.
That's when Rouse said to the rest of the expedition, "You're lucky. "Here's why.
......
Faced with this ability, born out of despair, Kerr has a different attitude from the teacher he has always trusted.
Perhaps, the prudence and rationality of the magician were the reason for the hesitation of the always resolute old mage. The old man has always been afraid that this is the key that will pull others into the abyss.
However, Ker, who left the mage's side, regained the iron and ruthlessness that had not appeared in the teacher's side and did not fit his age.
My father said, "A true warrior is not without fear, but one who faces it head-on." "Besides, we need strength, Teacher. We need the strength to survive, Teacher. Even in small straws, we need to squeeze out the last value of it. Kerr clenched his fists and shouted his own declaration in his heart.
What's more, the boy firmly believes that there is no fear that can defeat him.
On that day, on the day life was about to regain hope, on the day when his mother smiled again, on the day that his father pushed him violently...... He has endured, and endured the deepest despair.
Now, he needs to clench his fists and turn all his tears into motivation to move forward.
"Captain, I think if we go there, we will be more likely to encounter less dangerous prey. A wine trough beside him, who looked to be in his thirties, pointed to a low-looking grass, and lowered his head to ask Cher, who was not saying a word at this time.
The erosion of the environment made him look much older than he really was, and even so, the almost twenty-eight Long was still much older than the nineteen-year-old Kerr. But the trough nose looked at the young man's gaze, but it was full of fear. No one is not afraid of a madman who is only thirteen years old, but takes the initiative to apply for exploration and comes back alive.
With a sneer, Kerr stared into Long's eyes, "Your bravery and aggressiveness in exploration are truly impressive. But I have to say that you are also a veteran who has been out twice, and it is possible that you were lucky not to encounter any danger on those two occasions, but smart people who have been out should know that the premise of wanting to gain glory and status is to live first. ā
Long looked at the back of Kell who turned to leave, and suddenly there was a slight condensation, and then a fierce light suddenly flashed, and it was gone in a blink of an eye, and he instantly put on a smile on his face, as if the unpleasantness just now had never happened. Quickly followed Kerr in front of him.
He didn't notice that Ker, who had turned to leave, had a sneer on his lips.
Despair breeds sin, doesn't it?
......
"Are there three rookies in the team this time?"
Now, the team of people who have never gone out to explore is stuffed with a few newcomers who have never gone out to explore, so that they can understand that the cruelty of the world is the unwritten rule of the refuge.
Gerle looked at the rear of the line. There was a short child hanging from the back of the line, looking up at the black sky in surprise.
Kerr recognized him, and before he came to this refuge, he was a baby without parents, and even his name was given by the kind old mage - Pol. Because of his natural thinness, he was often oppressed by his peers. On a few occasions, he was bumped into by Kerr and helped him.
Well, he is definitely a rookie, you must know that the most dangerous place here is the back of the whole team - unable to effectively observe the environment, the most likely to be targeted by a single demon beast, and the leader can't take care of it...... , all the lethal factors are there to grab a handful. And the old bird obviously won't be so kind to remind them, and he won't be selfless and take the initiative to stand behind.
And standing in that kind of place, the only one who can still be in the mood to look up at the sky is a newcomer......
However, Kerr couldn't help but look at him a few more times. There is no other reason, why would a timid thin boy make Long En so hostile, and even want to use his hand to lead him to a dead end.
"Did I look away? ā
Kerr couldn't help but pay more attention.
"Bang!"
"Ahh
