Chapter 81: The Fog Fills
Chapter 81 is foggy
"You're right. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" Mo Xunyun lowered his head and rolled up the sheepskin map, his brows furrowed, "However, let's go in first, after all, this is our task." ”
Horst nodded, no longer thinking about the strange things of the past few days, especially the mysterious corpse of the young man.
"The Summoning Mage Canyon is the first canyon since entering the Ram Mountains, and it is said that there are some ruins of summoning mages in it, which should be worth exploring. Mo Xunyun mentioned the summoning mage ruins for the second time, "What's more, in the past few days, we haven't seriously explored a ruin, and the amount of information we can get is too little." ”
"Well, Brother Mo is right, Horst, we need to explore some ruins. Dominic stroked his ukulele, "This is the task set by the Mage Competition. ”
"Good. Horst arranged the division of labor and took Tucker, Dennis, and Mo Xunyun into the Summoning Mage Canyon.
It is said to be a canyon, but there are no steep stone walls as imagined, but more stone statues carved on the stone walls. On the stone walls on both sides, the grass and trees are sparse, and there are rats and monsters running around from time to time.
It took about an hour for a few people to pass through the canyon, and at the other end of the canyon was an open plain, which was actually a forest plain. A large forest, from which the occasional roar of demonic beasts can be heard. In the canyon, there are many stone statues, and Horst and the others have not had time to take a closer look, so they just care about moving forward.
Upon returning to the entrance, Horst noticed a lot of messy footprints on the ground, and it was clear that a team had already explored the area. Combined with the messy footprints, it also says that the team seems to be looking for something.
Horst didn't dwell on this, maybe the team had discovered something important, which caused the panic.
"Huh, it's raining?" a light rain began to fall in the sky, and the four of them immediately picked up speed and headed towards the place where they had begun to enter the valley mouth.
"No, how can this rain smell of blood?" Horst stopped suddenly, his keen sense of smell, and immediately told him that the smell of rain was a little strange.
"What?" the other three were startled and immediately stopped.
If it were normal rain, it should be odorless, but now Horst smelled a faint smell of blood, which was enough to prove something.
"I smell it too, and it falls on my body, and I am full of that smell. Tucker frowned, "Is there something going to happen again?"
"It's not possible, it's certain. Dennis stretched out a hand to catch a falling raindrop, "If something goes wrong, it must be a demon, and I am afraid none of us know about the strangeness of it." ”
"It's really strange, it's still a sunny day just now, why is it raining?" When approaching Taniguchi, several people also heard the voices of Moria and the others.
"Let's find a cave to shelter from the rain. Horst was indescribably happy to see that the people who remained outside the valley, especially Moria, were safe and sound.
No longer bothering about the stone statues in the Summoning Mage Canyon, the group quickly found a place to shelter from the rain in the mountain forest. It was a cave, and Horst had summoned beasts to probe and make sure nothing was going on before the group entered.
"The smell of blood is coming from the rain, and I don't know what will happen again. Horst changed his soaked clothes, "Rest here for three days, tomorrow and the next two days, the four of us will go to summon the mage canyon again, the shape of those stone statues is somewhat familiar." ”
A fireball rose to keep everyone warm, and Horst made more detailed arrangements.
The minds of the people were a little unfocused, and it was obvious that they had been affected by a series of strange phenomena in recent days.
"I'm afraid I can't wear these clothes anymore, I've washed them two or three times with a water balloon, and the smell of blood on them still can't be washed away. Moria grumbled, and she could smell the blood in the rain.
"Things are getting weirder, and they've gotten weirder ever since the Mage Tournament started. "The mage competition that Horst is referring to is naturally a continental-level mage competition.
"Is there really no way to solve it?" Tucker looked impatient, a lot of things have been in a nonsensical state lately. Either it was a member of the Sachar Empire and was never seen, or a member of the Sachar Empire was killed but the other members were not seen. If the other members were also killed, then what about their corpses? At least so far, no one in the Horst team has heard of any other corpse incidents. Or maybe it's this mysterious light rain full of the smell of blood.
Everything is so foggy and clueless.
An ominous premonition rose over Horst again, and he listened to the crowd's questioning, and looked beyond the cave. The light rain was still falling, and the dark clouds obscured the sun, which felt a bit stormy.
"It seems that this rain will not end today. Let's rest here. Horst shook his head, he was also clueless, he had guessed before, but he couldn't be sure.
"I don't know what happened to Sattar and what problems the members of the other teams will have. ”
With that, Horst took the blood-soaked garments from Moria, and a fireball burned them.
"These clothes can't be worn anymore, if you wear them out, it will cause suspicion, and this is the Rams Mountains, although predatory demonic beasts don't exist, but if you encounter them, it's really hard to deal with with the cultivation of all of us. The worry on Horst's face gradually revealed, the heavy rain was fine, it didn't last too long, but the most annoying thing was this continuous, drizzling rain.
In normal times, Horst might consider taking Moliya for a walk in the rain, but now, it's obviously unlikely, not to mention the smell of blood.
"Roar-" The roar of the demonic beast suddenly came, startling everyone's hearts.
"Didn't you say that there weren't any large predatory beasts?" Horst's face changed continuously, looking a little uncertain.
"Methane ......" Just as Horst wanted to summon the Methane Beast and go out to investigate, he was pulled by the nightingale. The nightingale shook her head at Horst, signaling him not to do this.
"What's the matter, Nightingale? The nightingale of the whole team, like Dominic, spoke the least, and was often silent, and her loneliness could be seen on her grim countenance.
"When the rain that smells of blood falls on the earth, a lot of life is lost. Nightingale whispered, "It's a phrase that often circulates in the Assassins' Guild, and I think it should help." ”
"The Assassin Guild?" Horst only then learned that Nightingale was a member of the Assassin Guild.
"When the rain that smells of blood falls on the earth, a lot of life is lost?" Moria repeated the nightingale's words, "what does that mean?"
"After the rains, there was a lot of fog, and it brought death and darkness. Nightingale continued, "This is the second half of the sentence, I thought that I would not encounter this phenomenon at the time, but I did not expect it to appear. ”
When Horst heard this, he searched for information in his mind, and finally got the answer.
"Someone has changed the rules of the world?" Horst whispered, he didn't dare to say it, it was a secret of this world, or it could be easily revealed.
The development of the world can be changed, just like the wizarding era, the epic era, and the post-mage era, different eras, mean different developments.
Of course, from the moment an era is created, there are world rules, a mysterious force hidden between the worlds.
"I thought you were talking about the Assassins. Horst was a little embarrassed, his voice just now was soft enough, fortunately few people heard it, and now he had to change his words, "Forget it, sooner or later I will know." Nightingale, let's talk about it. ”
With a sigh, Horst knew that there were things that had to be told to everyone, despite the content that belonged in the forbidden book section.
"Ostensibly meant the Assassin's actions, success. However, assassins are also synonymous with thieves, and good thieves usually have assassin skills, so the derivative meaning is that the thieves' actions have been successful. When the rules of the world change, unpredictable things happen. Nightingale's words were so cold that even Horst was a little frightened when he heard them.
Looking at the blank looks on everyone's faces, Horst knew that they didn't understand Nightingale's words, but he didn't explain either, after all, this was the content of the forbidden book zone. Of course, Horst didn't know how to know about the nightingale, but at least the nightingale could say that, and Horst knew that the nightingale must have understood.
The phrase circulated by the Assassins' Guild, Horst naturally knew it. Books are the source of knowledge, the carrier of knowledge, and sometimes reading more books is not a bad thing.
In fact, many of the contents of the forbidden book section cannot be circulated, including many things that happened at the turn of the ages. This includes the change of world rules.
The rain was still falling, and this rain was not just falling in this area of the Rams Mountains, it was raining such strange rain in the entire Demon Heaven Continent.
Meanwhile, in the secret place of the Summoning Mage's Guild, Dimmit sat at the very end of the crowd, discussing something.
"The protection of the Kanas Divine Bow, is it okay?"
"It's ok. ”
"You can't let this holy artifact fall into the hands of that organization?!"
"How's that kid doing now? I'm afraid he's a little too late to grow up? The organization is so fast, unexpectedly fast. ”
"Dimmit, you go to the Kanas region of the Warcraft Mountain Range again, the barrier of the warrior, and the seal of the mage to strengthen it again, just in case. ”
