Chapter 811: prey

It was getting dark.

According to Selina, the first group of explorers who entered the sandbox to check the situation was attacked after nightfall.

Gao Wen stood in front of the house, looking up at the clear and translucent night sky in the desert area. The surface was calm and calm, but he secretly mobilized his perception of the surroundings and mobilized various arrangements.

Until now, no strange phenomenon has occurred, and no one has been polluted by the soul. Duvalt and Naritiel are resting in a house not far behind, while the three Serenas remain alert and take turns. On duty in the house.

It seemed like it would be a night to spend peacefully.

The desert is quite cold after nightfall, but the temperature has not affected Gao Wen. He took a deep breath and let the cold air cool his mind. At the same time, he couldn't help the technology of creating this world for the eternal sleeper. Be amazed

Such a real wind, such a real chill, the vast earth, the twinkling stars, everything is just the same. How long did it take them to create a real world that is so fake, and lives in this world ... How long did it take to realize the existence of box boundaries?

Feeling a movement in her heart, Gao Wen gathered her divergent thoughts, turned her head and looked at the direction of the door. Naritir, whose long white hair almost fell to her ankle, quietly opened the door and walked out. She stepped on the ground barefoot. There was almost no sound, but I didn't know how to hide my breath.

"Are you awake?" Gao Wen asked casually, looking at the weird girl.

Naritir quickly looked up at Gao Wen, nodded slightly, and then came to the place not far from the door, then sat down on the floor, holding his knees in both hands, looking up at the sky dreamily.

Although always thinking that the other party is weird, suspecting that the other party is the minions of the upper narrator or the dangerous mind wandering in the sandbox, Gao Wen could not help but ask curiously: "What are you doing?"

"Look at the stars." The white-haired girl sitting on the floor said quietly.

"... It's obvious," Gao Wen said a little embarrassingly for a moment, "Aren't you going to sleep at night just to run out to see the stars?"

Naritier was silent for a while before hesitating to say again: "Look ... the stars."

Gao Wen: "..."

He suspected that there was some kind of communication barrier with the other party, but after hesitating, he stood next to Naritiel, seemingly casually asking, "How did you and Duvalt meet? You and him are just A travel companion? "

"... is a travel companion," Naritir replied still very slowly and shortly to make it difficult to understand, but at least he was answering Gao Wen's question, "I don't remember."

"Don't remember exactly how you met?" Gao Wen guided the other side to say more while understanding the other's vague answers. "How long have you been wandering here?"

"A lot ... many years," Naritiel said.

"Do you also believe in the upper narrator?"

"... I don't know," Naritiel shook her head, "I don't remember."

"You've been wandering here all these years? Did Duvalt tell you what the purpose of wandering was? Do you have anything to do?"

Naritiel remained silent for a while, shaking her head: "Look at the stars."

When Gao Wen guessed what the other man ’s answer was wrong, he heard Naritir adding: "You disturbed me to see the stars."

Gao Wen: "..."

The communication seemed unable to continue, and Gao Wen could only sigh with regret, and judged that there should be some problems in Naritir's mind, and her memory and thinking skills were significantly lower than ordinary people.

Just then, a flare of light suddenly appeared in his sight.

In front of the temple with many columns and stone statues, which has been abandoned for an unknown number of years, I do not know when a large-scale bonfire suddenly appeared. The burning flame rose from the temple square and was immersed the previous moment. The building in the dark night was instantly illuminated by this bright flame. Then, more and more fire or lights appeared on the top of the stone pillars around the temple, on the streets near and far, and in a household. Inside the house!

The whole city seems to be waking up quickly in the lights!

Gao Wen's eyes widened, watching the lights spreading rapidly in the city, and then he suddenly turned his head in the direction of Naritiel.

Naratil, who was still sitting there looking up at the starry sky a second ago, did not know when she had disappeared.

Gao Wen even failed to lock in her breath change at all and failed to detect when and how she left (or disappeared)!

But he was already ready to face the weird situation. At this moment, he was not even surprised. He saw the door behind him suddenly being opened, and the red-haired Archbishop Magnum rushed out of it. Walter's old man is gone! "

"I know," Gao Wen responded lightly. "It's not just Tanaritl who's gone."

Magnum stared, noticing the lights that were constantly lit around the city, his voice suddenly exploded: "Our ancestors in my family! What is this?"

Yuri and Selena also came out of the house. They had heard Magnum and Gao Wen talking outside the house. The lights spreading rapidly in the city reflected on their faces. Selina only watched. With a glance, he turned to look at Gao Wen: "Is this what you are waiting for?"

"It looks like its patience is worse than I thought," Gao Wen nodded. "Be prepared, the upper narrator is here."

Almost at the same time as Gao Wen's voice fell, on the distant streets, in the shadows between houses, between the boundaries of light and shadow swaying from lights everywhere, countless creepy shadows suddenly emerged from the air. !!

Those large and small shadows lay on the ground and quickly moved along the ground. At first, it only looked like the rolling mist at the border of the lights. Until some shadows came close, Gao Wen realized what it was. It was a spider. Countless Spiders crawling on the ground in shadow form!

Countless shadows are moving under the lights, and they are elongated or shortened from time to time as the angle of the light changes. It is as if an invisible "real" spider is crawling against the ground. It is completely transparent, but stays on the ground. A strange shadow fell, and the moment he saw those shadow spiders, Gao Wen suddenly thought of a word Duvalt said to himself:

"There are a lot of spiders here at night, but don't worry, they are mild and harmless, and they will actively avoid people ..."

These things don't seem to be harmless at all now.

Yuri opened her hands in an instant, and countless golden runes hovered around to protect everyone. The soft and warm light covered the audience. Selena Gell, who held the lantern, took a step forward, and the lantern shone. All the shadows crawling on the ground faded quickly, and then Magnum opened his hands and his thunderous voice burst suddenly:

"Mind storm!"

The powerful magic gathers in an instant, transforming into a dim light halo spreading in all directions. Wherever the halo passes, all the spider shadows pause for a short while, and a quiet and peaceful atmosphere fills the entire block.

A powerful aura of tranquillity, high-level spiritual spells, can soothe all mental units, including enemy and self.

But it couldn't handle Yuri, who was in a state of great consternation. The temperamental archbishop with monocle almost exclaimed, "What about your storm of mind?"

"Damn! I forgot I had replaced it with a soothing aura!" Magnum shouted.

The temperamental archbishop Yuri is probably the first time in his life that he shouted, "You barbaric! Do you usually rely on subconscious casts!"

"I used to be a Warlord priest. I used to rely on my subconscious to cast my spells. What can I do ?!"

"Don't use this as an excuse. I'm not not aware of the normal War God priest!"

The quarrel between the two archbishops from behind made Gao Wen feel a little bit shocked for a while. He never expected that there would be such a talent in the Dark Sect. These two people could not help but think of Philip and Byron. He even felt that if Yuri and Magnum had arrived in Cecil, they would probably become national first-level comic actors within a year ...

But a warm and clear light interrupted all the confusion, and Selina's lantern in her hands bloomed with a strong brilliance. Her voice sounded as if with some force that could penetrate the endless curtain: "Quiet! Yuri, Mag Nan, you are affected!

"The night here is amplifying your personality defects and negative thoughts, and is confusing your judgment!"

Yuri and Magnan, who were about to fall into a quarrel, were affected by Selena's lantern and awakened by her words. Suddenly, her eyes widened and she instantly realized the slight pollution and erosion.

In the next second, the extremely powerful mental energy erupted around Magnum, setting off a real "storm" in the entire building and a considerable area around it.

At the same time, more shadows are still gathering in all directions, and more lights are lighting in the streets and alleys of Nim Sandra. Light and shadow seem to form an intertwined grid line, centered on the temple area. Spread across the city, even strangely beyond the city, across the desert ...

Looking at it all from the air, Nim Santrow and a large area around it are covered by this web of light and shadow, like a cobweb, and the small mental storm set off by Magnum is at the center of this huge cobweb Struggling flying insects, like prisoners in a spider web ...

In the darkness not knowing how far from Nim Sandro, on a weird mountain peak standing in the desert like an inverted arthropod, an old paper lantern suddenly cut through the darkness, reflected in the dim light The figures of Duvalt and Naritiel.

The former was holding a lantern and was quietly looking in the direction of Nim Sandra, while the city was completely covered by a huge cobweb, and a huge spider shadow was slowly patrolling around the edge of the web, while the latter sat on the floor With both hands on his knees, he continued to look up at the sky, staring at the starry sky simulated by the sandbox.

"The last predation has begun, Naritiel," Duvalt said softly, "don't you come and see?"

Naritier sat unmoved and said with a sense of perseverance, "I want to see the stars."

Duvalt frowned. "It's all fake. What's so nice about it?"

"But for me ... it's true ..."

Duvalt frowned and looked at Naritiel, then slowly shook his head: "It doesn't matter if it's predatory, the real starry sky is waiting for us."

Naritiel was silent, quiet for a long time under the night sky, and then suddenly muttered softly: "Cake, it's delicious, wine, it's not good."

Duvalt didn't hear him for a moment: "What are you talking about?"

Naritiel didn't speak again.

Duvalt looked down at Naritiel for a long time, and finally shook his head helplessly: "... it doesn't matter."

Then he looked back and looked in the direction of Nim Santrow again, looking at the final predator after the end of the world.

The net woven by the upper narrator will eventually catch the glimmer of light from reality ...

The shock wave of the psychic storm rages between the streets, tearing away this world supported by dreams, the shadows of countless spiders are soaring in the energy surge, and even the nearby houses and slate floors have been turned into after several storms. The debris dissipates.

However, the shadows are endless. The lights in Nim Sangdrok's city lit up a large area of ​​the night sky. In the starry and dim night sky, there are larger, more abstract shadows converging, like a giant predator. Approaching the temple area like a beast.

"These things are weird and can't be cleaned!" Magnum shouted in the center of the storm. "They must have a source, hidden somewhere we can't see!"

Yuri maintained the protection of the golden runes and also raised his voice: "We should find a way to leave this city, this whole city is probably a trap!"

While struggling to cope with the shadows of spiders and the ubiquitous mental pollution, Yuri and Magnan turned their heads in unison, looking in the direction of Gao Wen.

The upper narrator has already begun to work, the extravagant wanderer ... shouldn't there be something to do? !!

"Should you take action ?!" Magnum shouted, "We can't hold on for too long."

Gao Wen was standing not far from Magnum and Yuri, beside Selena Gulfen. He didn't do anything from start to finish, just watching the shadows quietly, watching As Magnan and others launched a counterattack, they watched the chaos quietly as if it were none of their business.

His silence made Selina care, and made Yuri and Magnum even more nervous.

What are the outsiders waiting for? Why doesn't He act?

As such doubts became more inflated, and almost would shake Magnum's confidence, Gao Wen finally exhaled softly.

"So it is ..."

(Mama yeah !!!)
