Chapter 346: The Top of the Phantom Mountain: Avalanche
At this time, in front of their eyes, there was a very steep downhill road, this downhill road seemed to be very long, and I don't know where it leads, but it is not the unfinished dark road they took when they came, it was as if the owner of this illusion was playing with them.
Now, they finally understand the essence of the so-called "illusion", just like its name, "illusion" is actually a virtual world created by magic, presumably the owner of this illusion is also very awesome, can create such a large scale of illusion, but also in his own illusion to cause such a devastating catastrophe, and his control of the illusion is like people playing a game, he created an illusion is equivalent to people creating a game that can be controlled in real time, The game's creator can adjust the game's internal structure at any time to increase the difficulty of the game according to the player's progress.
In other words, the mastermind behind the scenes is not controlling this illusion in real time, this is just some mechanism in the illusion, from the time they walked out of the unfinished tunnel, they must have unknowingly triggered some mechanism, so they can't find the way they came now, and after discovering the danger, they returned the same way not only did they not find the way they came, but also encountered two uphill and downhill roads that they had never walked before......
In fact, not only Gong Piqing, but even the team members really wanted to pull the lord of the Extremely Cold Country over and beat him hard, and then trampled him under his feet and said to him: "You are very good at playing, so playful?" You're used to playing with magic every day, right? But this is just their current "incompetent fantasy", if they can't even get out of a magical illusion now, how can they meet the lord of the Extremely Cold Country......
Although I don't know where the downhill road in front of them leads, this is definitely the next level of the "game", they must not be able to return the way they came, the uphill road they just walked is extremely dangerous, maybe at some point a stone will roll down from the top and smash them flat, although the downhill road in front of them looks steep, but there will definitely not be the kind of "anti-physical event" that has stones rolling up to them from below......
"Let's go...... Don't worry, let's just walk together. Gong Piqing sighed from the bottom of his heart before saying this, and the team members could hear his despair from his tone, but the despair didn't come from the hearts of each of them, from the time they entered the palace, they had a feeling of being "played with in the palm of their hands" by the enemy, and they were dealing with death almost all the time, and they didn't even know if the mastermind behind all this was the lord of the Extremely Cold Country, Perhaps this was just the work of one of the generals under the Lord of the Extremely Cold Country, the real lord was sitting on a large soft sofa, drinking a drink in the bright sun, watching them desperately in these illusions through a large magic screen......
There was a burst of sighs in the team, but these sighs were very weak, presumably the team members didn't want to infect their emotions to others, sighing when they encountered difficulties was obviously not what their group of well-trained special forces should do, all they could do was to follow Gong Piqing and continue to go down, until the next round of danger came, and then see what new tricks the masterminds behind all this could come up with to toss them.
But to their surprise, they really didn't encounter anything dangerous on the way down, the whole downward tunnel was like a winding tunnel in the mountains, and after walking a long, long way along the spiral downward tunnel, they finally saw the end of this tunnel, but it was also equivalent to seeing a scene of destruction-
They never thought that this downward tunnel would lead all the way to the bottom of the mountain, and at the end of the tunnel was a forest that was being destroyed, but all the trees in the forest had collapsed at this time, and they could see that the whole forest except for the half of the big trees standing on the ground, that is, the broken trees lying on the ground, those burning meteorites that fell from the sky ignited these trees, which had caused fires in some places, but the fire on the side of their tunnel exit had not yet risen, and it seemed that it was the last clean place.
But they all know that there is nothing "clean" at all in this situation, even if the fire at the exit of the tunnel has not yet burned, let alone the fire has not burned, even if the big tree at their door is completely fine, and there is even a rest room for them to rest, and it is also in the open air area, and it is possible to usher in a meteorite falling from the sky at any time.
Unconsciously, the tunnel they were in was probably the only safe area in the mountains or the forest, they were in a very low position, if there were no stones rolling down on it, they should still be able to enjoy a period of purity, but no one could guarantee how long the mountain would last, how long the tunnel would last, if the mountain collapsed and the tunnel collapsed, where else could they go?
When the vault finally collapsed, it must have been their time to die......
"We ...... Do you want to go out? One of the team members looked at the devastating scene outside the tunnel and hesitated, staying in this tunnel now is the best option, the so-called "long-term strategy", but other than that, they may really have no way to fight this illusion, let alone think about how to break it.
"Don't you need it yet...... Take a break here, everyone is tired after walking so far......" Gong Piqing's voice was very soft, and it even sounded like he was weak, but how many miles did they actually walk? The team members didn't feel tired much, and he, a person with the skill of "adaptive evolution", can feel tired now?
In fact, the team members somewhat understood in their hearts that their captain was finally going to give up, although his code name was the World Tree, but he was still just a helpless ant in the face of such a catastrophe that could destroy a world.
Although the team members understood in their hearts, they still didn't expect Gong Piqing to really choose to give up resistance so early, they were stunned for a long time and didn't come to their senses, their minds were full of everything they had experienced along the way.
Yes, how many hardships they have experienced along the way, even the divine beasts that controlled the ocean or something before were not their opponents, even the thousands of infected armies were not their opponents, even the immortal legions were not their opponents, and now they finally tried their best to come to the palace, but after all, they still couldn't get out of the illusion in the palace, what a great sorrow it must be......
Even if there is a saying that those who travel 100 miles are half 90, and they have really walked 90% of the way now, who can easily accept failure in the last 10% or even 5% or even less? Even if 90 percent is only half, then they are the 90 percent who have really come step by step! This is just an illusion, then it means that they are still in the palace, and they are not even a thousand meters away from the lord of the Extremely Cold Country, what are these, can they be said to be half ninety for those who travel a hundred miles? They're 99 percent gone!
If the lords of the Extremely Cold Country can sense their thoughts, you can remove these illusions and come out to fight with us with real swords, even if we can't beat you, at least don't make us feel that all the previous roads have been in vain, and all the hardships have been in vain......
Finally, some of the team members still had not come to their senses, standing there in a daze, and some of the team members had tears in their eyes, and their suits were all with head protection turned on, so no one knew that they were crying, and no one even knew what their expressions were at this time.
Gong Piqing really took out a dry strawberry cake from his small bag, and no one even knew that there was actually a jelly in his small bag.
So he ate it in front of all the team members.
"After eating, ask your team members to ask the mage, what kind of illusion is this, how can it be broken, we are ready to fight to the death, and tell your team members that it is time to eat and drink, even if we know that it is death, we can't wait for death in vain, be ready to fight to the death, and tell them that their captain is going to make a big move." The queen said from his head.
"Again, if I give you the three percent, can you leave safely with everyone?" He asked the queen from his heart.
"I'm not sure, if the lord refuses to let me go, then I can't help it, if he is willing to let me go, I will definitely be able to return to Earth safely with everyone." The queen said from his head.
He nodded, and the conversation between them ended here, I ate all my favorite things, and there was nothing to be reluctant about, the last battle, if you want to fight, let's fight!
