Chapter 1580: Chapter 1581: Predicant
After progressing a certain distance, Feng Yuan seed to think of sothing and clapped his hands, saying
“Cotton, remove the illumination!”
Looking at Feng Yuan with confusion, Cotton did not act imdiately but looked toward Dou Yanlan, who understood and said
“You an, the light might be hiding clues around us?”
“It’s possible. I don’t believe this thing is just to scare people. Tsk, what a sinister design.”
Before he could finish speaking, Feng Yuan saw, as Cotton removed the illumination, strange runes surfaced on the surrounding walls. Those runes had a faint glow, and although the light was weak, it was especially noticeable in the darkness.
“Really a malicious setup, but these characters are all ornantal, without actual significance.”
Sweeping a glance at the runes, Feng Yuan said, and everyone was not surprised that Feng Yuan could understand them since he indeed knew quite a bit.
“Could there be hidden useful information within them?”
Liao Yu asked confusedly. Did Feng Yuan really know everything with just a glance? Feng Yuan turned to look at Liao Yu; in the faint light, people couldn’t see Feng Yuan’s expression. After a mont of silence, Feng Yuan said
“No, but it’s truly vile.”
“What?”
Not waiting for Feng Yuan to answer, the environnt around them shattered like a mirror, and darkness enveloped everyone instantly. The Dark Ancient Book in Feng Yuan’s hand emitted a ghostly blue fla, and a huge cloaked figure projected behind Feng Yuan.
“This joke isn’t funny at all!”
Looking at the darkness, Feng Yuan said viciously. It was then that he realized, at the mont the light went out, they had already been separated in the dark. Just now, it was rely the projection’s phantom that kept everyone unaware.
“Do you think I really wouldn’t take action?”
Without getting a response, Feng Yuan put away the Dark Ancient Book, summoned the Black Sickle, and the ancient lantern floated by his side. Xiao Ji clung tightly against Feng Yuan, afraid he might suddenly disappear. Feng Yuan reached out his left hand to rub Xiao Ji’s head to comfort it and sharply scanned the surroundings.
“Haha, I believe you would, but I think you’ll enjoy the coming challenge.”
As the voice faded away, the surroundings brightened again. Feng Yuan looked at the familiar tal wall and, with a cold face, pulled Xiao Ji beside him, looking at the cockpit ahead, Feng Yuan said coldly
“You’re provoking .”
“I wouldn’t dare. How about trying to pilot the Silver Falcon and chase the White Devil?”
“If you try to provoke again, I promise I’ll definitely act!”
Feng Yuan said as he walked to the familiar control panel with Xiao Ji. After so maneuvering, the Star Sea Warship started moving, and in front, a gigantic White Mothership appeared on the monitor screen.
“Do you think I’d really follow your intentions?”
With a cold smile, Feng Yuan said as he activated the warship. Behind him, an ancient Rune Circle appeared, and the flas burning on the Black Sickle were restrained, the ancient lantern gently landed on the table, its internal fla flickering like candlelight.
Fractured mirror-like cracks continuously appeared, the entire space howled. That sound wanted to say sothing yet couldn’t convey it accurately, only turning into twisted, bizarre cries reverberating in the space.
Unable to sustain it for long, the space completely shattered. Looking at the surroundings once again plunged into darkness, Feng Yuan coldly laughed, swinging the Black Sickle, sending ghostly white flas flying in all directions. At this mont, a helpless voice sounded
“Just a joke, is it really that serious? Fine, I won’t bicker with you. If you want to disrupt the real world, go ahead.”
As soon as the words fell, changes occurred around them again, Feng Yuan returned to that peculiar dark tunnel. Big Cat saw Feng Yuan, whimpered, and rushed over. Gently patting Big Cat’s belly, Feng Yuan said amusedly
“You, you weren’t relocated by him?”
He had already noticed that currently, only Big Cat and others were left here. The White Wolf Deity yawned, looking forward through the tunnel. After a mont, Liao Yu and the others reappeared, glanced at Feng Yuan, and Liao Yu hesitated whether to approach and speak.
“That guy didn’t set up multiple spatial transformations, rest assured. But what did you encounter? Phantom fraud?”
“Hmm, seems you don’t believe it. Too bad Agunas isn’t here. No, in this case, it seems finding it isn’t of much use. How about trying to get Ye Hanlei over here, if she were here…”
“What’s this guy babbling about again!”
While patrolling, secretly observing Feng Yuan and their movents, Ye Hanlei muttered quietly with a flushed face and began watching Liao Yu’s reaction. The latter obviously reacted very intensely, directly covering Feng Yuan’s mouth, saying
“Don’t talk nonsense! She doesn’t even have an ID card! If she cos to this place… it would only put her in danger.”
“Does this tunnel also have a transfer function?”
When Dou Yanlan reappeared, she asked confusedly. Although at first, she also suspected it was a phantom, after analysis, she believed they were all themselves.
“Forcibly dispersing the team, what is his purpose ultimately.”
Seeing Feng Yuan and the others, Huo Feng breathed a sigh of relief. After a while, everyone completed their reunion. Looking at the light ball hanging in the tunnel, Dou Yanlan said
“If the light source is extinguished, perhaps the previous situation might happen again. But if the light source isn’t extinguished…”
“Adjust the brightness, don’t block those runes. No, it should be a little brighter than the runes, and it should be fine.”
Shaking his head, Feng Yuan said as he summoned a white light ball, compared to Cotton’s illuminating light ball, the one in Feng Yuan’s hand was noticeably dimr. Cotton looked at Feng Yuan and retracted his Ultimate Move, and the surrounding runes reappeared.
Only this ti, perhaps because of the light ball in Feng Yuan’s hand, those runes appeared sowhat blurred, but this did not impact much. Looking at everyone behind him, Feng Yuan waved the sickle and said
“Let’s go, see what’s ahead.”
The surrounding runes kept changing. At this mont, Liao Yu and the others also agreed with Feng Yuan’s saying that those runes had no actual significance and were rely decorative, as the changes in the runes were completely random, looking entirely like ornantal doodles.
“Strange, according to your statents, we haven’t encountered any battles, only so challenges. Yet we’ve walked for so long, and haven’t encountered a single monster—it’s abnormal, and also, the distance doesn’t seem right.”
Stopping in his tracks, Feng Yuan suspiciously scrutinized the surroundings. Xiao Ji saw Feng Yuan patting the wall and made a curious sound. As for whether there might be hidden passages they missed?
Though the light was dim, Feng Yuan and the others could still clearly see everything around them. If they had truly missed sothing, it must be well-hidden, invisible to the naked eye, but…
“Let’s keep going.”
Glancing at the White Wolf Deity, Feng Yuan said. At this ti, the White Wolf Deity growled softly, and ice balls continuously ford, crashing against the surrounding walls. Yet, everyone kept walking for a long ti, and the sound of ice balls crashing never stopped, but they still didn’t find any anomalies.
“As expected, it’s a dead-end loop tunnel, but the way back also disappeared. Could it be a trap to imprison us? But, what’s the point in that?”
Rubbing his chin, Feng Yuan said puzzled, considering imprisoning without attacking, what’s the use? Certainly, they can’t be lucky enough not to trigger any chanism until now, right? That’s impossible.
“How about trying to forcibly break through? Although we’ve circled a few tis, the direction can roughly be discerned. The side tower should be in this direction.”
Pointing a finger, Feng Yuan said. He hadn’t forgotten their original purpose, but now, following the normal tunnel, they probably wouldn’t reach the vicinity of the side tower, so he had to take action.
“Wait, can we record those runes?”
Stopping Feng Yuan, Dou Yanlan seed to have discovered sothing. Seeing her observing those runes, Feng Yuan pouted and said
“Those things have no actual significance, no matter how they are combined, it can’t form any useful information.”
“However, these runes are quite simple, each consisting of only a few strokes. Perhaps the proper purpose of these runes is to overlay them with each other. Look, aren’t these polygons quite similar to corresponding location points?”
Pointing at a small triangular pattern, Dou Yanlan said, with furrowed brows. Feng Yuan replied
“There’s a possibility of what you’re saying, but I don’t have anything to record this.”
Big Cat whimpered, its wings patting its chest triumphantly, and Dou Yanlan smiled slightly, saying
“Scholar Owl possesses the ability to record information; Big Cat should have it as well.”
