Chapter 5: The Water Aristocrat of the Shrine
Atlantis10:10 AM
The surrounding temperature became even lower
“Aiya, sure enough, if I don’t get rid of the unnecessary person, I can’t even properly talk out a negotiation” Andellar’s footsteps stopped, and silvery blue flames appeared on the ice beside his feet Then it forether, and continuously spun around in a circle beside his feet
Senior stood up once again His injured shoulder was already glazed over with a thin piece of ice, stopping his wound froger in here by pretending to be one of the players , with no fear whatsoever of all these people present here”
“Well, no matter how you put it, I a’s subordinates Naturally, I’ve h, if I haven’t placed down this barrier, I wouldn’t be able to speak to you guys withinto an ice-cold sround “It just so happened that those three we fear, aren’t here to watch the match today So consider it as what you’d call…the stars were all lined up”
“It’ll soon be coone”
Just as Senior finished speaking, I saw that the broken hole in the barrier, was gradually starting to enlarge The Old Man, as originally outside, slowly squeezed into the hole, and then deforh the hole, then it was his body, that turned into a liquid-like substance, that passed through It stood inside as that huge black shadow
”Oh, Old Man, so he was actually taken away by you guys” Seeing the black club's appearance, Andellar raised his eyebrows “I’ve already said that obviously the Moving Eye had eaten so, but yet I couldn’t find what it had eaten”
The Moving Eye?
I froze for aeyeball that chased us with the intent to kill in the KTV?
“The Old Man who devours and releases barriers, the Shadow Wouardian Gods So you guys really did see them before” Andellar crossed his arms, and looked at the Old Man with interest ”I've alanted to obtain these three interesting things, so I had the Moving Eye go and pursue them I've never expected that it'll be continuously hindered by the Old Man's barrier Later, I received the news of the Moving Eye's destruction so I went to take a look but found that everything was gone It was quite disappointing”
What was he talking about?
I know about the Old Man, but who are those two?
Wait, at that tisam woman and the cow-headed person?
I turned my head and looked at the black club Then, the Old Man suddenly turned towards the barrier A hole slowly opened up below his eyes, and then an incredible thing happened
That side of the barrier began to be sucked into that hole, and once in a while, the black club would shake as it devoured “Your barrier has been broken, do you still want to continue with your negotiation?” Curving into a cold s down The ice on the ground i It then slowly took the forh in the air “Chu, as soon as the barrier is broken, get out immediately and request to leave here!”
”Alright, alright” I pulled up the unconscious black robe on the ground Fortunately, he's probably not a huht wasn’t et him on my back
It was only now that I truly felt how important the differences in race are
If the one I was supposed to carry today was the five-colored rooster head with a bottoht on the spot
“Are you planning to play with lance, Andellar raised his paled back to Tenju’s face, and then laughed in a very aht Since the barrier has already been broken, I’ll just find another day to sit down and have a chat with Student Chu I wonder if you like coffee”
I took a step back, with every hair standing on end
He’s too polite, so polite as if he’d still be s someone three hundred times
“I hate it” After the Old Man had finished devouring the barrier, I immediately ran outside
Would Senior be okay by himself?
That face-changing person seemed extremely powerful, I feel like I should stay back and see if there’s anything I could do to help…
But I also feel like I wouldn’t be able to help, and instead quickly becoest help I could offer
I want to help
I really do want to help
“You can see…you can see, right…” The Old Man, who had followedthat usual low and hoarse voice “In fact, you can see…you’ve always been able to see…”
What can I see?
Chi out from within my pocket, just like what I’ve heard several times before
“You’ve always been able to see…”
Thunderous sounds could be heard the second I stepped out of the shrine
“Ladies and gentlemen, because of the appearance of the isolation barrier just now, the General assembly’s announcer was unable to know of the circumstances inside But now that the barrier has been removed, everyone will be able to clearly see the situation inside!” The uproar froht me back to reality I took a step back All I could see were people shouting as they sat high above, and everyone of them were people I didn’t know
What a here?
Why is it that I’m here?
What are they shouting and screa for?
“Atlantis Acade out, and look, the black robe he’s carrying on his back is from one of Clear Wind’s representative teams This shows that a fierce battle had taken place within the shrine We can clearly see that the black robe Mohander has already coed to be unable to continue the match”
A voice gradually sounded out besidesee
The Old Man had once again turned into a black cloth-like thing, and slowly sank down into the water His yellow eyes were especially obvious in the deep blue water
A tile fell beside my feet
Then I put the black robe onOld Man e
The shrine’s collapse see period of ti down The round, it turned to powder Next it was the second one, the third one, just like fish scales as they flew up, and then broke into pieces inthe air with fine powder The painted walls followed after the tiles and collapsed Then it was the shrine’s ornae white statue of the shrine’s Goddess
Senior and Andellar were standingin front of the statue
I knew that I should be running away, but I couldn’t le step Both ofit difficult to take even one step forward
Cold air spread out over the surrounding area, and all the water near the shrine had been condensed into ice
“Return” Senior lifted his hand, and a silver line extended out on his black glove Then a silver illusionary weapon appeared, floating high up in the air
The face-changing person pulled out even leaht “Notice that, this time, there’s poison”
The , both of them disappeared in front of me Until a sound came above me, and I lifted up e water sphere floating in the air In a blink of an eye, the water sphere burst open, just like a heavy rain as countless drops of water ca down
The Old Man was sub at the sky Just like me, he’s become a spectator
What can I do?
Is there really nothing I can do?
“You have always been able to see” The Old Man's voice slowly cleared up, ”You've always been able to see, so why did you pretend you couldn’t see? You can see us, can hear our voices, you've always been able to see” The black shadoalked onto the shore, and slowly distorted itself and then reassembled His face appeared and his neck and body, then his hands and feet eradually appeared in front of me
”What can I see?” I took one step back and heard the chi from within my pocket
”You've always been able to see” Old Man lifted his head up to look at ives one the feeling of a knife-like sharpness ”There’s no one that can’t see Your eyes, they are no ordinary eyes, you should try looking through them”
The heavy rain stopped
The surrounding water level gradually increased, and then buried our feet
Next, the Old Man disappeared, and a black shadow appeared beneath the water His yellow eyes were open but were longer looking atdeeper and deeper
What can I see?
I don’t know
A black thing ca down from the sky, and then fell into the deep water Before anyone could even see who that was, he had already sank down There was only a black cloth that floated on the water for a few seconds, before it was dragged down as well
The second person slowly landed and stood in front of me
“Senior!” As soon as I saw the person, I immediately raced over A cohts, Senior looks like he’s in quite a miserable state His black robe was ripped in several places, and there were a few silver needles on his left arm
“I’ out the fine needles, Senior frowned
“Didn’t I tell you to leave the stage?!”
”I…”
I felt like I should do so
That chiain So I reached intothat I’ve actually heard fronored by me
The blue illusionary weapon
A tre the tiny sound of the illusionary soybean
This tie spiderweb as it cracked open
