Chapter 2658 (1/2)
The crowd kept walking on the dark and empty hanging ladder.
With each step, the red mark will light up, turning the steps under your feet into entities. When you go to the next step, the steps in front will slowly turn into virtual shadows, and finally disappear in the dark.
They are like stepping on a ladder without a way back.
At this time, it was almost a quarter of an hour before they left the platform where the box of Western Asia was located, but they still didn't see the end of the ladder.
Moreover, the stairs sometimes spiral upward and sometimes fall tens of meters like jumping off a building. The route of overturning and handstand has become the norm.
If the red mark hadn't been pulling people in the direction, they even wondered if they were going the wrong way.
Now, they have come to a big circle of stairs, sometimes handstand and sometimes straight. The gravity field here is quite chaotic. Even if they take the handstand section, they don't feel falling.
At the halfway point of the great circle ladder, Kael suddenly wondered, ”how can my mark fly in a different direction from you?”
Because Kael was last, they didn't find anything unusual before. At this time, they turned around and looked at Kael when they heard his voice in the spiritual tie.
But I saw Kael ten meters away standing on the original ladder, and the red mark in front of him was flashing in the other direction.
At the same time, the corresponding virtual shadow of the ladder also appeared in the direction of Kael.
”Is there a different route for this ticket?” Dox looked at Angel suspiciously.
Angel is the one who has communicated with West Asia for the longest time, and knows more information than they do.
However, angel was also a little confused: ”I asked about this mark. Sisia only said that this is the rule of this alien space. Only with the red mark can we safely reach the exit. I didn't mention that there will be separate roads on the way.”
At this time, the black count also confirmed: ”I have asked similar questions, and the answer is almost the same as what angel said.”
”What should Kael do now? Or I'll go back and pick him up?” Dox road.
Angel: ”when the mark is activated, it will only move forward. If you don't believe it, try to step back.”
Dox's practical spirit was quite enough, and he stepped directly onto the back ladder. However, as angel said, the red mark did not flicker at all, nor did it retreat with DOX, but hung in its place.
The ladder on which DOX half stepped became a virtual shadow that did not exist at all.
Dox was also reckless, thinking that only a few meters, he would pull Kael over again... As for Kael's loss of red mark, DOX didn't consider it at all. Anyway, he would put it into his exile space if it was a big deal.
However, when DOX was about to rush to Kael, Kael shook his head in horror.
Dox was wondering when he suddenly felt frightened.
Not only DOX, but also others present felt something wrong.
”Quick spirit, pull DOX back quickly!” As soon as angel realized that it was wrong, he immediately ordered the quick spirit to summon a strong wind suction vortex, and instantly pulled DOX, whose feet had separated from the ladder, back to the ladder.
Dox, who returned to the ladder, was panting with lingering palpitations.
”What, what's going on? What just happened?” Dox gasped as he questioned.
However, everyone did not see the specific situation, but felt something wrong.
At this time, Kael's voice came from his heart: ”dark shadow, as soon as Lord Hongjian stepped out of the ladder, I saw a huge dark shadow floating up from the void below.”
”Huge shadow? It's so dark here. Are you sure you're right?” Asked angel.
Kael: ”I'm absolutely right. That color is completely different from the darkness around...”
”Has the shadow disappeared now?” Dox was a little worried that he was being watched by something dirty.
Kael: ”the red sword Lord stood within the light source covered by the red mark again, and the dark shadow sank and disappeared.”
Hearing this, they understood why angel said that this red mark can only enter, not retreat.
Once you step back, you encounter this unknown terror.
Angel: ”sisia said before that there was danger in the void. Unexpectedly, the danger came so fast. Once he left the ladder, the shadow immediately covered his head...”
Count Black: ”a different space shouldn't be so weird, and it's still feeding monsters in the void.”
Angel: the monster raised
Count Black: ”I can't think of any other existence except the monsters raised. This strange space is designed like this. Something's wrong... I have a hunch that there should be some unknown secrets in the depths of the void here.”
The black count looked into the dark void with a trace of exploration in his eyes.
”If there are secrets here, the prison hanging ladder may also contain secrets... Because the situation of the prison hanging ladder is similar to that here.” Angel paused: ”but even if there is a secret, it should have nothing to do with our trip.”
Angel is not curious about these ”secrets”, but the secrets here must be related to the prison ladder or the high-level decision-making of Naro City, which is obviously not what he can participate in now.
Moreover, angel doesn't want this exploration to be full of twists and turns.
”Indeed, it has nothing to do with probability.” The black count did not deny angel's words: ”you can put it aside for a while.”
”The secrets here don't need to be considered at all now. However, Kael's situation is very urgent, which needs to be considered.” Dox road.
”There's nothing to worry about. He'll go wherever the red mark leads him. Since cecia said that the red mark can take us out of here, we'll meet at last.” When the black count said this, he whispered, ”moreover, maybe we will all have our own way later.”
Hearing the black count's words, the first response was Kael in the distance: ”indeed, if there is only one road, there is no need to buy so many tickets. Since each of us has tickets, it may mean that everyone will have a different road.”
”I'll follow the red mark next.” After a pause, Kael said in a solemn voice, ”go alone.”
Kael's tone was firm. DOX thought for a moment and whispered, ”well... It's normal to walk alone.”
”It's not alone.” Cael scratched his head: ”isn't the soul tie still connected? After I go on the road, I'll report the situation with you!”
Kael took a deep breath and walked in the direction indicated by the red mark.
The crowd watched Kael's figure go farther and farther until it disappeared in the dark. They silently looked back and continued to move forward along the great circle.
Kael did, as he said, talk about the situation from time to time to show that he was all right.
