The black mist didn't answer Zhou Ke'er's question, but just changed the topic to himself: "When he takes the book, this secret realm will be closed immediately." ”

Zhou Ke'er raised her eyebrows, leaned over, supported her chin with both hands, and looked at each other innocently: "Doesn't that mean that I came in and worked hard to do so many things, but it was all in vain?" Just to run for him? That's a bit of a stretch, isn't it? ”

The dark shadow nodded matter-of-factly, "In terms of general reason, it is indeed very unreasonable. ”

As a result, there is no follow-up to this sentence.

Zhou Keer had no choice but to be more straightforward, stretched out his right hand, and made a gesture of rubbing his index finger and thumb against each other: "Since you don't think it's reasonable, it's better to give me some compensation as compensation, I think it's barely reasonable." Right. ”

The black shadow didn't answer for a while, but the black mist was slowly accumulating, as if thinking.

Zhou Ke'er didn't panic at all, but stood up and walked around the room while looking around the scene.

Anyway, at most, it annoyed the existence and let it kill him. Let's not talk about whether this existence will ignore the other existences standing behind Zhou Ke'er and directly act like this without scruples, and besides... Even if it did do - it wouldn't have much to lose if it died in this secret realm.

Besides... It's really not good, Zhou Keer can also use the academy watch to drive it directly. Not at all afraid.

However, after looking at it like this, Zhou Keer found that the scene in this room was some... Characteristic.

The corners of the room were densely strewn with something similar to "eggs", but at first glance it looked a little strange, these "eggs" appeared on them with sharp spines that were waving chaotically, and the color was like colorful metal.

On top of it, some kind of green liquid slowly seeped out, gradually forming one after another, large or small, looking like tumor vesicles, earth-like objects, bulging and bulging, as if they were filled with green pus.

But fortunately, those ghost things didn't spread to Zhou Ke'er's side, even Zhou Ke'er would find this kind of thing disgusting.

Zhou Ke'er thought about it, but walked back to his original position in a few steps, Shi Shiran sat down, crossed his legs, and tilted his head to look at the other party: "Do you need to think about it for so long?" If you don't want to give it, just refuse it, anyway, I can't force you to give me something, can I? ”

While speaking, Zhou Ke'er seemed to be careless, and her eyes swept over the ancient book on the table.

The covers of ancient books are depicted with strange images, and every stroke and drawing seems to reveal a wail. In the lower part of the cover, a line of ghostly characters that look like some kind of ancient script is drawn.

Wait a minute... Ancient texts?

Zhou Ke'er's wandering gaze moved back to the cover of the book again, squinted his eyes slightly, and involuntarily began to subconsciously try to decipher.

The distorted words were reflected in Zhou Keer's pupils, as if they were wriggling dots, and like ink dots that had penetrated out, as if they had spread out many tentacle-like traces, as if they were opening their teeth and claws.

But with this change, the meaning of this line of words also began to emerge in Zhou Keer's mind inexplicably.

“`aki...”

Zhou Ke'er seemed to lose his eyes, and the heavy pupils of his right eye seemed to have received some strong impact, and suddenly began to tremble violently, and the numbers in his pupils flickered and jumped wildly from "one" to "seven".

At this moment, the black shadow reached out and lightly covered the cover of the ancient book, blocking what was written and painted on it.

"Oh? Can you read it? And it can echo it, which is something I didn't think about. ”

The black shadow shook his head and waved his hand, and then in Zhou Ke'er's eyes, the ancient book seemed to be a blurry thing like a mosaic.

Zhou Ke'er came back from the trance and chaos at this time, and gasped a few times, her forehead was already covered with fine cold sweat.

The black shadow waved his hand at Zhou Ke'er: "I'll give you a piece of advice, you can see something very dangerous at a glance, it's best not to try to explore it." If it weren't for the Seven Secret Texts of the Earth and the protection given to you by other beings, you would have been parasitized or possessed by this book right now, and in that case, even if I watched from the sidelines, I wouldn't have time to stop you. ”

Zhou Ke'er wiped her sweat casually, but a smile appeared on her face, and she asked rhetorically: "What kind of results will be produced if you are parasiticized?" The book I have now... Uh, isn't the "Seven Secret Texts of the Earth" in your mouth also a state attached to me? And when Long Aotian comes later, shouldn't he also be parasitized by this book? ”

The Black Shadow nodded, "It's exactly what you said. You've got a tolerance for this energy, and even if the book were to parasitize you, you wouldn't have much of a backlash, at most you'd just get a little shock on the spot - but that's only part of the story. The big problem is that if you get two copies by yourself... Then you're violating, well...'rule'. Violates the rules of this game. That's the most troublesome thing — and I'm going to be implicated as well. ”

"Rules? I kind of get it. ”

Zhou Ke'er touched her chin, nodded slightly, and thought to herself.

It seems that either there is a being who is higher than all the other beings who makes all the rules, and the other beings are the "chess players" who follow the rules. Either that, or all the beings are checking and balancing each other, and in order for the "game" to continue, they have made such rules for each other.

If it is the former, then it doesn't matter if one of the beings violates the rules, it will be immediately purged by the highest being. But if it's the latter... If one being takes the lead in breaking the rules, it is possible that someone else will join in to expel him, or it is possible... As a direct result of all other beings starting to break the rules, this is the most dangerous and chaotic situation.

"Oh, the guest is here at last. So do you avoid it first, or do you just watch? ”

At this moment, the black shadow clapped his hands and asked Zhou Ke'er.

Zhou Ke'er came back to her senses, chuckled twice, and shrugged her shoulders: "Why should I avoid it?" There is no need for this. I'll just watch it right here. ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw an embarrassed-looking bat slam open the door of the room and appear in Zhou Keer's sight.

The bat instantly changed into the appearance of a dragon arrogant, looking unscathed, but with an exhausted look, he looked at Zhou Ke'er in surprise: "You... Why are you here? What's going on? ”

The black shadow looked at Long Aotian's appearance, sighed, and said to Zhou Ke'er: "It's a pity, if only you weren't designated by other existences." ”
