Chapter 48: The Cocoon of Light
"Reiko, do you know this person?" her captain Mu Shan frowned, "It's your friend?"
"I'm not going to be friends with this kind of redneck. Reiko said categorically.
"Save it, I'm ashamed to even talk to you. Ghost Tiger replied.
"You should be begging for mercy instead of talking about it. The big worm next to him punched him in the stomach.
"He is the best friend who often walks with that half-human Mu Zilei, and he should be the ghost tiger who broke the army and said he wanted to teach a lesson. Reiko said as she looked at him with disgust.
Ghost Tiger didn't expect anyone to recognize him, and he struggled to escape, but his captors on both sides beat him violently.
Mu Yun connected all of this together, and finally figured out the ins and outs of the matter, the only thing that was uncertain was whether the damn Mu Zilei was still in the maze or not, and whether he was still around.
"Since his best friend is here," he boldly speculated, while carefully observing the change in Ghost Tiger's expression, "then the half-human Mu Zilei must be nearby." ”
Mu Yun caught a flash of panic in the ghost tiger's eyes, and he knew that he had guessed correctly.
"The big worm stayed to watch over him, and the others scattered to search," Mu Yun said, "Leave fluorescent powder as a mark along the way, he is not lightly injured, and he can't escape." Half an hour later, no matter what the outcome, everyone had to follow the mark. ”
"Zilei, run, those twins, who are neither male nor female, are coming for you!" roared the Ghost Tiger.
Because of these words, the big worm that stayed behind kicked him hard, hitting him in the ribs.
"You son of a bitch," he said as he fell to the ground, gasping for breath, "I will redouble your kindness this time, I swear to the gods." ”
"I'm a big worm waiting. He sneered, punching and kicking again.
The search went more smoothly than expected, and in less than ten minutes, something was discovered. When Mu Yun summoned everyone back, pushed the ghost tiger, and followed the phosphor left along the way to find Mu Zilei, everyone was surprised.
Mu Zilei sat cross-legged on the ground, breathing intermittently, as if he was completely unaware that he was surrounded. The most amazing thing is that his whole person is wrapped in a huge translucent blue light cocoon that looks like light and silk, and those light filaments keep flashing back and forth as if they are alive. His throat bulged one after another, radiating to all parts of his body until it disappeared completely.
Ghost Tiger had seen Mu Zilei practice "Strange Spirit Strategy" more than once, but he had never encountered such a scene now. He suddenly realized that the problem must be the drop of jade in his mouth, what he was devouring could not be the energy of the jade, right?
"This is a psychic skill, right?" Reiko speculated.
"I think he's being devoured by something?" the brown girl swallowed uneasily.
"Whether it's a psychic skill or something else, try it to know, big worm, you go over. Mu Shan commanded.
Although the big worm was also frightened in his heart, he had no choice but to bite the bullet. He first used his spiritual power with all his strength, forming a thin layer of spiritual light armor outside his body, and then began to walk cautiously over, and he suddenly shouted halfway, but it only frightened his friends, and the light cocoon in front of him still did not move.
He tentatively touched it with his fingers, but Hotaru only recessed inward before recovering as before. He took a deep breath and clenched his glowing fist slammed into the blue cocoon. The light cocoon immediately appeared with multiple deflated fist marks, but it also quickly bounced back and returned to its original smoothness.
It turned out to be something harmless to humans and animals. He turned back to tell his companions what was on his mind, but all he saw was the frightened expressions of the crowd.
"Watch the back!" Reiko exclaimed.
He hurriedly turned his head, and the light cocoon stretched up and down at some point, and then swelled into a strange giant flower made of light filaments in mid-air, the flower was shaped like a sun wheel, the center of the flower was like a big hollow, and the petals were slender and pink densely covered on both sides, like spreading wings.
The ghost tiger recognized it at first glance, it was the twin flowers on the roof of the dining hall.
Before the big worm could react, his whole body was swallowed by the giant flower, swallowed in the cocoon of light in the middle, and he kept slapping and struggling in vain, unable to break free.
The strange light cocoon mouth spewed out a faint small ball of light in satisfaction, and the ball of light quickly disappeared in midair.
It's hiccuping! That's what everybody thinks.
Ghost Tiger couldn't be more familiar with this scene, it was exactly the same scene as when he and Mu Zilei first watched the twin flowers devour birds.
"Monster! Escape!" Lingzi screamed, even people like Mu Yun, who had always been calm and calm, were scared a lot, after all, they were only twelve-year-old children, and when they encountered this kind of thing, they immediately recovered the courage of a child.
But the giant flower reacted faster than them, and as soon as they flashed with light, eleven branches made of light filaments swept in like lightning.
As the only survivor, the ghost tiger saw the people around him being swept into the light cocoon one by one, and he was already frightened and collapsed to the ground.
The people of Xingtaban are trapped in the swelling light cocoon one by one. The big worm was desperately shouting for help, Reiko was sobbing silently, Mu Shan and another girl with long brown hair struggled hard, only Mu Yun barely kept his composure and tried to use his spiritual power to break through, but what made him frightened was that the spiritual power in his body was rapidly withdrawing. He wasn't the only one, everyone felt it, and this light cocoon was like a vampire constantly absorbing the spiritual power in their bodies.
Their spiritual power turned into a stream of light, and it continued to converge towards Mu Zilei in the center of the light cocoon.
When the last trace of light flowed into Mu Zilei's body, his head suddenly tilted and he passed out, and the light cocoon immediately dissipated out of thin air, and the people who had been frozen in it fell from mid-air like raindrops, losing consciousness.
The ghost tiger's mouth opened wide, and it took him a long time to recover. He hurriedly dragged his injured body and ran over to help Mu Zilei up, and slapped his face hard to try to wake him up.
The blue droplet jade spit out with Mu Zilei's fierce cough, fell to the ground and returned to normal.
His eyelids twitched, and he slowly opened them. This sight is like the first sight of a baby born in life, everything is full of surprise, everything becomes so incredible.
I saw that the whole maze was much clearer, not only did he see it more clearly, but he also felt a lot of subtle situations that he usually ignored, and even the subtle changes in the wind that he usually ignored could not be missed by his sensitive hearing.
The strangest thing is that whether it is the ghost tiger in front of him, the wall in the labyrinth, the bricks on the ground, or even a speck of dust, no, it is far more than this underground world, the entire heaven and earth are all alive as if they are connected to him, and he has become one of them, and the two are no longer unrelated.
In his eyes, the world has completely changed!
"Zilei, what's wrong with you?" Ghost Tiger's concerned voice seemed to come from a long distance.
"Ahh ”
"That's not a dream, it's true!" Ghost Tiger was stunned for a moment, and then said, "You don't remember what you did just now?"
"It's not a dream?I just remember that when I practiced the "Strange Spirit Strategy" to the third layer, suddenly the jade in my mouth reacted, and then I began to practice the fourth layer of the mind method in a daze, and then I estimated that I fell asleep, so I had that strange dream of turning into twin flowers," he only then noticed the six Star Tower Class people lying on the ground, "What is this going on? Why did the Star Tower Class people fall here? Did you do it? You seem to have suffered a lot of injuries." ”
Ghost Tiger smiled bitterly and shook his head, he began to tell Mu Zilei what happened after cultivating "Alien Spirit Strategy", from his trick Star Tower to fight with the two sides of the Big Bear Team to Mu Zilei's unconscious control of the light cocoon into a twin flower.
Mu Zilei was dumbfounded when he heard it, and it took him a long time to recover.
"I think it's very likely that this kind of thing happened because of the interaction between 'Strange Spirit Strategy' and the drop of jade. Ghost Tiger finally speculated.
"Well, I may have found the trick to cultivating the Alien Strategy. Mu Zilei picked up the droplet jade on the ground and said softly.
