Chapter 2930 - A Dark Place (2/2)
Han Sen was a bit annoyed. He did not know how to get through the dark zone. Bao’er, who was on his shoulder, asked, “Dad, didn’t you get a stone lantern before? Can you light up this place with that?”
“I can try to.” Han Sen had already been thinking about making use of the stone lantern, but the stone lantern’s lantern flame was different from the flame that adorned the long, bright lanterns around. He did not know if it would work, but he resolved to give it a go.
Han Sen took the stone lantern out of Destiny’s Tower. The stone lantern was the same as before. The flame was about the size of a thumb. It was not very bright.
Holding the stone lantern, Han Sen tip-toed closer to the darkness. Where the light shone, the darkness melted and fell back. It carved out a lit area.
“It really does work!” Han Sen was extremely happy. He held the stone lantern and kept moving forward. Large amounts of darkness were chased away.
The stone lantern did not look very bright, but in the dark, it was able to light up an area that was several dozen feet wide. In the radius of the stone lantern, the universal cogwheels returned to normal. They did not break again.
“It looks like this stone lantern is better than these long, light lanterns. I do not know what this stone lantern is, but it is very weird.” Han Sen stroked the stone lantern hard. He really loved it.
A significant portion of the zone was lit up. It was not difficult to bring the goldfish family through with him. Han Sen held Bao’er and sat atop the big goldfish’s back. He enabled the big goldfish to lead them. Han Sen held the stone lantern to keep the area bright.
The big goldfish’s rabid powers did not advance any further, but the fish had not recovered either. It still seemed as if it had some clarity even though its reaction was a bit slow.
Fortunately, the fish was still able to understand Han Sen’s words. It kept following Han Sen’s direction. The small goldfish followed next to them. It seemed to be scared while venturing through the dark.
While they were traveling, Han Sen thought he heard a woman wailing in the dark. It was a sorrowful sound, and it seemed rather close to them.
The crying voice was more than spooky. It was very sad as it rang out from the silence. It made people feel a chill.
“Dad, it looks like someone is crying,” Bao said while looking into the dark area.
“It does not matter. Just ignore it.” Han Sen continued to hold the lantern. He made the big goldfish carry on toward the next long, light lantern. The lantern was not too far away. It was just 120 to 150 feet away, but they had been traveling a few hundred miles. They had yet to reach the long, bright lantern.
Han Sen thought, “Sacred is so weird. When I walked past the long, bright lantern, both of the distances seemed 90 to 120 feet apart from each other. Even if there was a long, bright lantern missing, it would only be 210 to 240 feet away. Now, we have walked a few hundred miles and have yet to reach the next lantern. Clearly, there is some problem with the space in this area.”
The darkness around was suddenly filled with a countless number of sharp blades. They were headed for Han Sen from every angle.
“Moon Shadow God!” Han Sen recognized who the black blades belonged to.
“I will make you pay for my son’s death.” Moon Shadow God’s angry voice sounded out from the dark. She was able to travel through the darkness, and she seemed to be able to control it.
