Volume 1 The Caged Bird Chapter 24 Dry Bones (10) Dry Bones +1

If something inside these stone walls has been depleted, then what is it that is constructing the illusion of this space?

Banzel stood still, and took a deep look toward the end of the darkness. Suddenly, ripples appeared on the calm water, and the black tide swirled, as if to pull people into a bottomless abyss. He was startled, and the cold sweat on his back seeped into the somewhat earthy-looking bachelor's gown.

"Your face is ugly. ”

"No... Affair. Bazel stared at the spells on the stone wall, pretending that these were good things, but it would take a lot of effort to record the expressions of surprise and distress. He handed the oil lamp in his hand to Chuanzi and said, "You take this, I will write these things down." ”

Chuanzi kicked him hard, "Do you really want to die here, or save some effort to find your own exit." ”

After saying that, Chuanzi went to the black abyss, there is no road back, there is no end to the front, and that can't stop, and those who stop are often more likely to lose themselves.

And they kept going, and going, until there was no road left and right, and there was no boundlessness. They were also tired of walking, and in this infinite world, their every step seemed small, so small that they could not see any change in the coordinates.

Although they were deeply trapped in some mysterious and powerful realm of order, when they saw this endless space, Chuan Zi said with emotion: "The world should be like this......

Banzel stared at her a little strangely.

"There's no end. She said, "The stones trapped us in a circle, those things couldn't get in, we couldn't get out." ”

Banzel retorted, "Without those walls, humanity would not have survived to this day." Those things can live in harmony with other animals, but they prey on humans. Do you think they're going to cut down trees and destroy the world? They don't have to be worse off than we are out there, and humans may be the ones who shouldn't exist.

Without that wall, the world would be truly broken, or at least, this is the real 'status quo' within the wall. ”

Baiye Chuanzi smiled, raised his eyebrows, and asked sharply, "Bachelor Banzel, why do you make such a big rebellious statement." ”

Banzel opened his mouth, closed it again, and lowered his head.

He rarely talked to Chuanzi, who was the old "big brother" of the class, and he was the one who gave them a footing in the class. The brain is not good enough, and the reason why I can learn from Professor Connor is because no one wants to come. However, she came, so he wanted to come too.

"Brother Zel, your eyes look so hesitant, do you have something on your mind? Come, talk to your sister, don't hide it in your stomach. ”

She slapped him on the shoulder from behind, like he was suddenly pushed in the back. Don't be surprised why she's falling behind you, she's at least a round trip ahead of him. That expression of joy is like when a person walks a long way and suddenly sees an acquaintance on the side of the road, so the two will naturally compare each other, and the one who is richly dressed is this expression.

Banzel's heart moved slightly, in the vast sea of people, at least this person looked at him sideways and laughed at him, in fact, this passer-by was quite righteous to him. No one has ever been so righteous to him, the world is strange to him, he is also a living from the world, and she is just a passerby on the road of his life. He was confused, he didn't know what the future would look like, and it was she who gave him direction.

"I ......"

Banzel felt that this was an opportunity, and just as he was mustering up the courage to say what was in his heart, a crack suddenly appeared in the space, and although the flame in their hands was faint and dim, the darkness dissipated at this moment.

They came to an end.

Is there really an end to the world?

The illusion is lifted, revealing the space as it is. Pitch-black stone walls, hard stone slabs, ancient incantations. The air is suffocating and the flames are still burning. It turned out that they had not lost their way, and that there was some kind of magical power that had led them here.

But that feeling didn't go away, that feeling of cold loneliness as if it was going to die. Banzel didn't know how to describe the feeling, the bird in a cage, the lost lamb in the steppe, suspended in feigned death, covered with a coffin, buried deep in the ground and woke up......

It's all a little bit, you see, that girl doesn't seem to care at all.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the bright white sunlight shines through a few transparent spots of light, turning the earth into a fairy tale world.

The soft snow was like cotton, and Xia Ming was wrapped in a thick quilt, sitting in front of the window and staring blankly at the scenery outside. The cold wind blew in and cut the face without noticing, as if it had lost an eye, and the feathers were so scarce that it didn't look very reliable flew crookedly to the window, and with a snap, the two guys lay down together.

The creature leaned back forty-five degrees before he woke up from a dream, but he didn't make any moves to save it, and he lay down wherever he fell. He wrapped himself in a quilt and changed into a relaxed position, lying on the ground with a relaxed and happy face, looking quite comfortable.

But after a while, his eyes became dull again, he seemed to wake up in a daze, his mind was blank, and he didn't even think about what was going on.

It wasn't until a long time later that a man jumped in from the window, saw him on the ground, and angrily grabbed his quilt and went straight out of the window. As long as people are frightened, anything will be cured. It's scary enough to jump out of a window, and if you fly out two stories high, even the dead will be scared back to life.

The man jumped out of the stairs again, threw something into the snow, pointed to his nose and asked, "Didn't you see my message and teach you how hard it is to go to a meeting?" ”

"I, I, you... I thought it was a lost bird, it was supposed to fly that way. Xia Ming pointed to a spired building in the distance.

"Then you can't get up yet!"

"Yes, yes, yes. ”

Xia Ming tied the quilt and turned over, trying to stand up, but he suddenly turned back and asked tentatively, "Excuse me, can you drop my shoes too." ”

"Not necessarily. The answer was simple, and the man brought him up directly.

"It's good to ...... if you have something to say"

With a flick of the circle, he saw the sky spinning, then the window enlarging in front of him, and then the floor approaching......

There are few people along the way, firstly, who will be okay to run around in the snow, and secondly, they have to go to class. For classes, this kind of school not only has to have classes in the morning and evening, but also has no holidays, just like those senior colleges.

Xia Ming pushed open the door of the council room according to the address on the paper. In the center of the spacious classroom is a circular conference table, which is said to symbolize justice. Familiar faces sat at the table, and on the board, Diana stood with the words "Temporary Enforcement Team of the Night Hunters" written in chalk.

Diana nodded at him and motioned for him to sit down. Everyone looked at him with a "this is a pig" look, and Sulos, who was to the left of his place, sat there with a look of money owed to him. Xia Ming hesitated, but sat down.

"So, all eight of them are here. ”

Diana said as she handed over the documents in her hand one by one. Everyone was staring at the document, and on the first page was the list of the interim implementation team:

Two people from the storm: Mu Shiyu and Ferin Otto, one person from the student council: Armin Xia, and five people from the training class: Los Sue, Mina Vic, Shi Yu Minghong, Zhang Monkey, and Rand Roman. Captain: Mu Siyu, Vice Captain: Armin Xia.

Objective: Assist the Performer in killing or capturing the Night Performer.

"You are all the best people in the comprehensive evaluation of the 821 training class, and you have been selected as the temporary execution ......"

“...... Why is my name there?" Rand immediately raised his hand in question.

"As far as I know, Lady Roman, you are a mobile vault...... Don't question the intelligence ...... in my hands"

Xia Ming thought to himself, there is indeed no need to question, a proper profiteer.

"Nightman" is a code name because no one has ever seen a Nightman. The Nightman only appears at night, and his whereabouts are uncertain, and he is often only noticed when he walks by, and three months ago he began to appear in a ranch in the southwestern part of the territory. The rancher suddenly disappeared that night, and a few days later only his head was found, but his body was missing. Then this kind of news spread everywhere, and it was not until not long ago, when they attacked the "Heaven" level academy and one of Taixue's instructors was killed, that the palace began to pay attention to this matter. But apparently they were in trouble, otherwise they would not have sent messengers to Varga late at night.

"The 'Night One' is very dangerous, and at a critical time, you only need to learn from the 'behind' of the executor, and it will be regarded as a practical training class. Although you have seniors to protect you, you must also be vigilant yourself. Our 'enemies' must be more than the 'Night', and the 'Night'...... The following is just my personal opinion... They may be dark 'ghosts' hiding behind the scenes of the territory, and you have to watch out, they are not easy to deal with. ”

Except for Mina and Mu Shiyu, the rest of the people all looked puzzled.

"Regarding 'ghosts', I'm wondering if they'll be added to your mission as well. ”

Dai Yana pushed the board away, and a rough coordinate map was drawn on the inner board.

"The latest information from our 'eyes' in the main city of the realm, the Nighter reappeared last night, he killed three children, and one is missing. And three weeks ago, they had killed a knight investigating him in Sanam. ”

Dai Yana marked the location of the two on the coordinates, "Unless he also has a train that moves at the same speed as us, it is impossible to return to the main city in three days." The rush of time did not allow him to commit another crime. Moreover, all the gates of the main city have been sealed, and only birds can enter and exit. ”

"So, our first stop..."

Dai Yana circled the coordinates to the west, "Sanan." ”

To be precise, Sanam is in the southwestern part of the territorial world, with a sparsely populated population, large grasslands, and a thriving livestock industry.

"This is your stop, Mr. Roman, and your credits are ready. Unless there is danger, the executor is not necessarily present. ”

To be done.
