Chapter 152 - The Corridor of Time (VIII) (2/2)
“In that case, he should have forgotten a lot of things” Looking at the pathetic spirit of the NPC, Luo Jian couldn’t refrain fro It was impossible for him to take Luo Jian to the door which he had opened
Nevertheless, Luo Jian could not help but hold a glimmer of hope He asked the NPC, “Do you remember how you died?”
The NPC finally had a reaction He gloomily raised his head and replied to Luo Jian, “I had been walking in the dark constantly The beast without a heart had killed me I want to find my heart”
The beast without a heart
Luo Jian thought about what he had said It seemed that this was the key to this chaly si back to look at Cloas in a daze Because his eyes could not see, Cloas also very confused as he held Luo Jian’s hand tightly and refused to let go…… It was not knohen he grabbed onto Luo Jian’s hand This fellow also placed Luo Jian’s small hand in his pal a dirty smile from tirily withdrew his hand, and his weapon changed into a rod in an instant, and he used it to knock on Clown’s head Clown’s forehead suddenly swelled He whimpered and covered his head with his hands
Then, Luo Jian said to the NPC, “Can you take us to find the beast without a heart?”
The NPC raised his pale face His facial features appeared blurred in the dark stairway He said, “I cannot find it myself, but I know it is…… Two levels down, I opened the black door It’s always there, behind the door It has never left”
After saying that, the NPC did not speak any more No matter what Luo Jian asked him, he only looked to be in a trance So Luo Jian did not waste his efforts He lifted the spirit-evocation banner and dragged Clon After they descended two levels down, as expected, they saw a black door that had been opened
The black door was half open It was so dark inside that even Luo Jian’s night vision did not work He could not see as in the deep darkness It was as if there was nothing behind the black door
Luo Jian was not afraid He boldly opened the black door and dragged Clown as they went into the pitch-dark place where darkness would s the shadows of the duo Silence and serenity were fully displayed in front of Luo Jian
“I haven’t experienced this kind of darkness for a long time” Luo Jian talked to himself This scene before him was very familiar to him He encountered one such enemy in the Asura Realm that used darkness as a weapon Before that, Luo Jian was defeated several tiht vision In the dark, Luo Jian couldn’t really see things He could only rely on hearing, his sense of smell, and various creatures and objects which emitted pheromones that ordinary people could not decipher to identify objects in the dark
However, in the later periods when Luo Jian was able to defeat hie Luo Jian, to compete for as the most powerful He remembered that the enemy had shown him such darkness The real darkness His body and soul seemed to fall into the endless darkness At that tie of ti He could only remain stuck in the darkness as he wandered around in it
He would sos, and he would so Yan once said, ‘He is a soul born from infinite darkness and pri Yan was also born in this kind of darkness that almost drove people crazy? Why was he born? Why? Was he born because the secret chamber intended him to, or was it just a coincidence under a combination of certain factors?
And here, in this deep and never-ending stairway, once again, such feelings roused within Luo Jian When he ca back, he found the door behind hied his weapon and turned it into the netherfire laht of the lamp could not penetrate the darkness
“That’s interesting” Luo Jian swayed the netherfire lahtest hint of light
In fact, the darkness that the player engulfed Luo Jian in was a kind of ic Naturally, he could not really move Luo Jian into a coic to force other people to have ht with him had all crazily committed suicide Even the ‘revival’ effect in the Asura Realm could not completely eliminate the sequela caused by the darkness
“So, is this a kind ofset in reality?” Luo Jian murmured to himself, “The real darkness can only be fully unfolded after one experiences death Any other ‘darkness’ is just the adjustht in this place However, from the moment I entered here, I entered an illusion It madeIt shut down alland reading s are, ultimately, creatures who require their senses to perceive the world”
Luo Jian shook his head “But this doesn’t affect me”
When he said this, the world lit up
The darkness suddenly retreated and vanished while the surroundings clearly showed that behind this horrifying black door was just a small narrow roo here There was only a corpse that was leaning against the wall in the roo only white bones
There was also Clown standing behind Luo Jian He stood motionless Luo Jian raised the netherfire lamp in his hand and shook it in front of him Clown did not react at all It was estimated that he had not left the illusory darkness However, Luo Jian wasn’t in a hurry He let him remain there
Luo Jian went to check the skeleton that was supposed to be the NPC’s corpse Because it had becoh his clothes and found a letter in his pocket that was crumpled into a ball of paper
Luo Jian unfolded the paper, and in the letter, a few siht you shouldn’t be so weak, but I’m still disappointed, so this ain I don’t ever want to see you again]
There was no signature It was just some lines of words It felt like what a lover would say to the other when they were about to break up The paper seemed to have been kneaded repeatedly by its owner It seemed that he could have wanted to tear up the letter at any point in time but was reluctant to do so no matter what had happened
“A beast without a heart” Luo Jian stared at the handwriting on the letter and said to himself
