43. Eve (2)

When playing RPG, if you are in a labyrinthine corridor, when entering a very open field, I believe most people will be the first to archive - just kidding, the change of scene shows that there must be an event to happen!

"Io-senpai, it's clear that it was still the environment of the corridor just now, but it became like this when I walked around...... When the hell did we get here?" Looking back at the exit of the corridor dozens of meters away behind him, Kaede felt deeply puzzled, "There's no reason why I walked dozens of meters before I noticed the difference in the environment?"

"Because most of the 'roads' here are already blindfolding......

Io said that his own people are also good - in the past, when playing hide and seek with his friends, he has seen a lot of similar tricks, and if this trick can fool Io, who once ranked (7th), then Io's friends will be stunned (enough, there is no laughing point in this stalk!).

"Actually, where we're now is in a different space than where we've been before. Xiaofeng: The exit of the corridor you see is not actually the exit we walked through, it only corresponds to the concept of 'the entrance of this scene'. ”

"Is this a separate space? What about the exit?"

"Look, there it is. ”

Looking in the direction Io was pointing, Kaede was imprinted with a dim magic circle on the ground in the distance.

"Hey...... It's not that I want to complain, Aiou senior, that kind of setting with an obvious abrupt conspiracy atmosphere, is there really no problem?"

"Of course there's a problem, that's where the aura of 'woe' comes out of it - but even so, I have to go, I'm already ready to do a big job, there's no need to be afraid~"

Io naturally knew that Kaede's personality tended to be cautious, so he simply took Kaede's hand and pulled Kaede forward.

"This is ......" Kaede hesitated for a moment when he walked into the circle.

"Well, Xiaofeng, do you know anything about this, have you found anything?"

"Uh, I'm sorry, I'm Ao, in our eyes, the magic array is the same...... It's just that I suddenly feel a little strange, as if I've suddenly been hung upside down - well, maybe it's my delusion, right?"

Io glanced at Kaede meaningfully.

"I'm not good at this, but because Xiao Feng often uses your natural ability, can you still feel the simple spatial incongruity?"

"Io-senpai, do you know what you said? wasn't that a delusion just now?"

"Tell me more about your instincts, Xiao Feng...... You're an assassin, and your sixth sense or something is very important. ”

In fact, Kaede will naturally be alert to his intuition, but as the saying goes, "when the sky falls, there is a tall man on top" - comparing his own ability and insight with Io, Kaede's lack of confidence in himself is inevitable.

"So there's a problem, isn't it? That's ...... Wait!Is it okay to be as straightforward!?"

Io didn't hesitate to inject magic power into the magic array, and seeing Io's move, Kaede hurriedly made a posture to prepare for battle.

To activate these key mechanisms in such a dangerous place, you should save a file first, right?

Just as Feng Ning was calmly waiting for the battle, Io suddenly turned around and showed a bright smile to Kaede.

- Kaede reflexively felt a chill in his heart.

"Xiao Feng, do you remember what you said about your 'illusion'? It's as if you were suddenly hanging upside down...... Hehe, be careful~"

"Huh!?"

Before Kaede could understand what Io was saying, Kaede suddenly felt her blood rush to her brain, causing a wave of dizziness - but not only that, but before Kaede could fully react, she realized that she was in mid-air...... Whereabouts!

The thrill of falling (?) made Kaede immediately startled and regained consciousness.

"Don't strangle it, rightβ€”β€”β€”β€” it hurts !!!"

The experience of falling from a height is actually not lacking, with Kaede's experience and ability, he is not afraid of ordinary heights, but just when Kaede just reacted and was about to adjust his posture to land...... There was a buzzing echo in the back of his head.

At the end of the day, at a height of five meters, the fall is very fast......

The dazed Kaede opened his eyes while rubbing his head.

β€œ...... Familiar ceiling β€” huh, no, the floor?"

The magic array above his head is so conspicuous, and besides, the pattern of the "ceiling" is obviously the kind that he stepped on under his feet before...... Suddenly, a pair of hands touched the back of Kaede's head.

"Hehe, I saw a very interesting scene...... (Touch)"

"Io senior, you definitely did it on purpose, you obviously know what will happen to the Dao, you don't remind me, just to see my jokes, right?"

"Well, don't deny it......"

Ion's sunny smile made Kaede grit her teeth.

Kaede looked at the situation around her, and couldn't help but smack her tongue - the magic array that was originally imprinted on the ground was now above her head, not because it had changed its position, but because the ceiling that was originally above was now at her feet.

"Upside down!?"

"Because the environment here is relatively bad, in fact, it is all unreal, so the same budget can make a better performance...... Ahem, I mean, bizarre sights are going to be more frequent......"

"Although it seems to you that this place is 'upside down', in fact, there is no so-called 'floor' and 'ceiling' here, and if you ask what is the effect of this...... Well, Xiao Feng, you can see it when you look up. ”

With Io's words, the scene above also changed.

As if the glass had been shattered, a spiderweb-like crack radiated from the center to the surrounding area, centered on the magic array. At first glance, it seems that the original ground will collapse in the next second, and people can't help but worry about the people below.

"Hmm, it's, it's shattering?"

Kaede subconsciously prepared to meet the shattered stones, but when she saw Io who was calm and composed, Kaede immediately calmed down - as Io said, this is not a reality that follows common sense, even if the scene in front of her is real, but its essence is just an empty fantasy.

What will happen next?β€”β€” Kaede, who has calmed down, begins to look forward to it.

"Xiao Feng, are you ready?"

"Well, even if I'm like me, I can feel that kind of shudder from the soul - this is the instinct of human beings to face the legendary creatures at the top, right?"

Through the rift, a strong and dangerous aura continued to be projected below, and Io, as an elf, was not affected, but Kaede, as a human, the tremor that began to pass through the muscles to the skin began to manifest.

If it was before, presumably Feng wouldn't dare to think about her current behavior at all, right? No matter what her strength was, as long as she had the concern of "sister", she would not be able to make such a move. However, now that she is different, she is not going to "challenge", the little person named Kaede, but just following the predecessors she trusts to "accomplish" one thing.

It's just a "mere thing......

If, even under the protection of his predecessors, he could not even stand firm and straighten his waist in the face of a creature that had no reason and glory, but only powerful force......

Instinctively kept shouting and asking himself to retreat and flee.

But the consciousness is soberly telling itself to look directly and face it.

β€œ...... Is this the feeling of a cowardly self and reality, in conflict with ideas and pursuits? The war between instinct and reason is really painful......

Although the sweat had soaked the clothes, after shaking her body several times, Kaede slowly recovered from her half-kneeling position and struggled to stand up.

β€œ...... If even here, shrouded in the light of my predecessors and the favor of my ancestors, I can't overcome fear...... I...... How am I going to hug her as an older sister......"

"I ...... It's just to save her...... Butβ€”"

Even though her breathing became extremely rapid, Kaede struggled to straighten up.

"Actually, this is me, such an incompetent me...... I'm the most annoying......"

At this time, suddenly a hand reached over and grabbed Kaede's hand and supported Kaede's swaying body.

"It was even better than I expected, the first time I faced an enemy of this magnitude, it only took me a minute to get back up on my own...... With such a resilient soul, it seems that I don't have to worry. ”

"Of course, because now, I am shouldering the gaze of my ancestors and the expectations of your predecessors, and for the blood I am proud of, I ...... I won't run away!"

"That's right! Even if there are people like Xiao Feng, this world won't be boring!"

In this time, the rift had spread throughout the dome. As if unable to withstand the pressure from above, the crumbling dome turned into debris after holding on for a few secondsβ€”unlike the expected stones, which looked like they were made of minerals, like murals painted on thin glass sheets, which shattered and naturally turned into thin shards, and then "evaporated" into the air.

The coercion of existence above that poured down unreservedly.

Its posture, without a doubt, is as shocking and desperate as the calamities recorded in the classics.

Compared to Kaede, who was staring at the other party in a daze, the corners of Io's eyes twitched, and he frowned and looked at the other party's gaze, very unfriendly.

"I didn't expect it, although I thought of a lot of possibilities, but it was really unexpected that this guy was the last one...... It was a wise decision to transform the Tree of Life before and hand it over to Xiao Feng. ”

"Io senior, do you know what that is?"

"Of course, I can't forget it in my life. Io looked at the stinging crimson figure in the air in disgust, "The one who once destroyed our hometown, the King of Flame in the Hellfire Lands. ”
