Volume 1 Wind Clan's Abandoned Son Chapter 138 The Fountain of Death
Gwendrin stretched out his left hand and waved it downward, but he didn't expect that wherever the spiritual power went, the water was not only not affected, but became more turbulent.
"Strange, it's impossible...... The water here seems to be immune to my psychic powers, and I can't make it freeze at all, or even transport it away......"
The girl still did not give up, and tried to reach out again, and a stream of spiritual power shot out from her palm.
But there was still no movement below, and the water was still flowing in a hurry, with no intention of stopping.
"Don't waste spiritual power, the awakening of Arques is a once-in-a-century event, if any psychic can change the environment and landform here, let alone any 'astrological inscriptions' or 'sharp arrows', it is estimated that this place will have collapsed long ago." Rin Ye also stepped forward, and there was a strange wind in his eyes again-
"This place is called the 'Fountain of Death'. ”
Gwendlin wondered, "Fountain of Death?"
"It is recorded in the ancient books of our astrologer that all the groundwater in the Violet Empire originates from the Lingyuan River. And the underground water here, the Fountain of Death, gave birth to the ancient and mysterious mermaid race. The river below us should lead directly to Tubrick Bay. ”
Rin Ye's hand pointed forward and continued, "Do you see those floating stones in the distance?"
Everyone looked at the fingers of the night, and the starlight continued to illuminate the road ahead, and the four of them were on high ground, and the cliff was under the spring. On the other side, far away, there are many pumice stones floating one foot square, like black and white on the Go chessboard, sometimes bright and sometimes dark, not very clear.
Rin Ye continued, "Of the many suspended stones, only a small part of them actually exist, and the rest are illusions created by illusions. ”
Bai Lianzhou cautiously asked, "Whose illusion?"
"Who else is so powerful, of course it's the illusion of the Heavenly Lord!" Rin Ye added, "The gods are showing you the way, we have to walk over those pumice stones." ”
After that, he saw the little junior brother trembling all over.
"What's wrong?"
"Senior brother, I'm afraid of heights. Bai Lianzhou swallowed his saliva and said solemnly.
Gwendrin said disdainfully, "Why are you still afraid of heights as a wind spirit master?"
"Most of the time I'm not afraid, it's just this ......" Bai Lianzhou stretched his neck to look at it, and said with a pout: "It's too ...... It's so tall...... I'm afraid I can't hold that little bit of spiritual power. ”
Rin Ye tugged at the corners of her mouth, wanting to laugh at him a little, but she couldn't.
He was also scared, it was really too high.
Little Sissel cleared his throat and asked, "What happens if we go the wrong way?"
"It's going to fall off a cliff......" Rin Ya said with a straight face.
"No, I mean...... What is the bottom of the cliff like?" Little Sissel stared into the dark abyss, "I always felt like something was staring at me. ”
Rin Ye swallowed and said in a deep voice, "Well, I will face the challenge of death." ”
"Senior brother, this Grim Reaper you are talking about...... Is it the god of darkness and death, or is it some monster we don't know?"
"Certainly not the heavenly one. Rin Ye said in a deep voice.
There was silence.
After saying this, Bai Lianzhou felt that there seemed to be a wild beast hidden under the cliff, and opened a big black mouth and waited for the four people to fall, allowing it to feast.
Fear had surged down the ground to his feet, leaving his ankles cold, and he didn't dare to move.
Little Sissel pondered for a moment and said, "Emperor Star Master, try summoning magic. ”
Rin Ye shook his head again and again, and said, "Summoning magic? We tried it just now, but we can't teleport out." ”
"I'm not asking you to teleport us, I'm asking you to teleport these illusions. Little Sissel reached out and swiped twice in the empty space.
"Huh?" Rin Ye was stunned for a moment, unable to keep up with little Sissel's whimsical ideas for a while.
"I mean, since Gwendlin can't carry away the water that really exists, then the real stone can't be carried away either. Little Sissel patiently explained: "On the surface, only real things can be moved by spiritual power, and I guess this place is the complete opposite of the outside world, only illusions can be destroyed. ”
In the huge cavern space, only the faint light of the fire lit by little Sissel was flickering for a long time.
In the dim light, the rough textures on the stones could be faintly seen in the dark night, which was very real.
"Okay, I'll try. ”
In the darkness, Rin Ye raised his hands, wisps of golden texts dancing appeared on the tips of his fingers, and countless satin-like spiritual power networks galloped towards the other side of the cliff.
A huge portal rose in mid-air, and dense golden carvings fell on the void stones, flickering into countless golden threads, bouncing and jumping with the boy's movements, and disappeared with the sound of clattering stones.
Darkness swept over again, and ten sleek, smooth stone treads appeared in front of everyone.
Bai Lianzhou said excitedly: "Mr. Sisel, you are also too witty! You are simply our think tank!"
Gwendlin leaned forward with some trepidation, and gently stroked the nearest ten pieces on the edge of the cliff with his hand.
The plane screened by the spiritual power was different from the previous illusion, and the whole stone was flat and smooth, looking like finely polished marble.
The land on the opposite side seemed out of reach, but there were only ten pumice stones......
It takes a big stride over, or a girl like Gwendlin might need to retreat, recharge, jump over.
If you make a mistake, you will fall into the abyss.
In case the distance gets bigger and bigger, you still have to run.
The tip of the girl's shoe leaned forward slightly, and the gravel fell in pieces.
"Can we really get over?" said Gwendlin, looking nervously at Rinya.
"If you can't get by, you will fall to your death. ”
"I'm not kidding you, Rin Night......" Gwendrin hesitated, scared, "You look at the distance between the pumice stones and the pumice stones, and the abyss below, are you sure you didn't make a mistake in the 'screening' process?"
Rin Ye knelt beside Gwendrin, stretched out his finger and tapped the pumice stone, and said, "There is absolutely nothing wrong with my selection, those stones are solid, and it is no problem to step on them." Under this underground, it is certainly not 'crossing the river' in the ordinary sense. There's no way, it's just this way, and falling down is just falling into a cake......"
Bai Lianzhou, Gwendlin: "......"
Seeing the three spirit envoys with embarrassed faces, little Sissel stood up and said, "In that case, I'll go first." ”
"No! Are you crazy?" Gwendrin immediately stood up and grabbed his wrist.
Little Sissel said: "I'm the oldest here, so it's only natural to be the first to go." "You can't take such a risk, we don't know if it's an exit or a dead end, we have to find a way to verify it first." ”
Fang Jue's reaction was a little too strong, and the girl retracted her hand like an electric shock.
"You're so afraid I'm out of danger?" Little Sissel lowered his head and looked earnestly at Gwendlin's anxious face.
"No...... I just don't want our team to be downsized. Gwendrin lowered his head and whispered, "Of the four of us, you can make up your mind at a critical moment, and if you are in danger, we will all die here." ”
"Don't worry, if my approach is right at the beginning, then the rest of the operation will definitely be correct. ”
Little Sissel looked at them carefully, and his face showed a kind of courage and determination that was unique to mercenaries.
"I'll clear the way for you, if I fall, no matter what movement is below, you must not get close, try to find a high place to send a distress signal overhead, understand?"
"You better stop talking, Raven's Beak. Gwendlin muttered.
"Take it. Little Sissel handed Gwendrin the female knife from the God of War Twin Blades, "This one is light." ”
Before she could speak to the two astrological envoys, his left foot had already stepped on the first pumice stone.
As if sensing the man's burly body, the pumice stone trembled slightly, and sank a short distance.
"Ahh
“......”
The slightest tremor made him break out in a cold sweat nervously, and Bai Lianzhou's voice almost shouted out his heart.
"Why are you yelling so loudly? Lao Tzu's soul scared you. Little Sissel looked back and said angrily.
"I ...... It's fine if you're okay. Bai Lianzhou covered his mouth.
Sissel Jr. moved slowly, and it took nearly half a minute for him to lay his second foot flat, barely balancing.
The pumice stone looked crumbling, as if it was going to collapse at any moment.
"Big, don't make a fuss. He looked back and said with a smile.
In order to appease the three spirit envoys who were hugging each other, he tried to suppress the fear in his heart, and quipped, "It's not far, you can cross it in one step." ”
With that, he immediately stretched out his leg and stepped on the next piece—
But the second piece is far more distant than imagined......
As Gwendlin said, the distance between the pumice stone and the pumice stone made Sissel Jr. have to jerk his strength backwards.
Then he summoned up a hundred and twenty points of courage and leaped forward angrily.
Sincere.
Stopped.
Gwendrin watched him leap desperately, a wave of fear in his chest, and hurriedly shouted, "How is the situation ahead?"
"Just come and see. Little Sissel let out a long sigh of relief, stood up and smiled back.
As everyone knows, looking down from his point of view, it is a dark abyss, and the slightest disdain is broken bones.
Although he looks burly and strong on the outside, the more he is in this extreme environment, the more he is the one he fears the most.
He could already clearly feel the cold beads of sweat sliding from his back to his waist, and every inch he moved was a tingling from his toes to the top of his head.
Directly ahead, there are eight more.
No astrologer ever said I would die. Little Sissel thought to himself.
