Xu Huo and Nie Xuan imdiately used props and instrunts, with more than a dozen layers of barriers blocking them, but none of these had much effect. Because within seconds, a chaotic force suddenly arose inside the Folded Space, disrupting the effects of all their props and instrunts and scattering them in different directions.
In the instant their vision changed, they disappeared from each other’s sight, as if rely spinning in place, while the surrounding space seed to reset.
The dark current wrapping around Xu Huo vanished instantly, and the entrance behind him was completely invisible, along with those stone statues. The darkness encroached all around, with lighting props only illuminating a distance of three to five ters, possibly cut off suddenly by space...
"Nie Xuan!" he shouted around.
Originally just probing, he was surprised when his voice turned into an echo from behind him a second later.
"Nie Xuan!" His own voice ca from another direction, with a one-second interval, as if the space in front and behind him had folded together.
Xu Huo stood still, feeling no abnormality at present. The space he was in was rely a normal space where Spatial Power was more concentrated, though the power wasn’t so easily wielded.
However, this place was special, and he felt his judgnt might be incorrect. So he continued calling different nas in different directions to determine if the entire space’s orientation was distorted.
In fact, after experinting, he felt like the space around him had already been divided into pre-set space channels. His voice would enter one channel and co back from the opposite direction. From the interval, the channels weren’t particularly long.
If the sound behaved like this, could it an that even if he walked in one direction, he would still end up in the original spot?
"...Xu Huo..." At this point, Nie Xuan’s voice suddenly ca from far away.
He paused, still advancing towards the sound’s direction, but that’s when the sudden attack occurred again. Instinctively, he used the Water Cube Barrier for defense, but during deviation from his original position, he inadvertently collided with sothing.
Although it was just a fleeting glimpse, he sensed that it was indeed a human hand—a single human hand, as if suddenly reaching out from so space, then vanishing again.
What was that? A stone statue? Or a naturally occurring prop?
After stabilizing himself, Xu Huo reached towards that direction, and through the Water Cube Barrier, a hand unexpectedly gripped his arm, pulling him to the opposite side!
He activated several barrier-type props upfront and simultaneously opened the Spiritual World, instantly dozens of spiritual portals opened, with his childhood personality appearing behind him, transforming into a black mist intertwining him...
Engaged in combat, he slowly dragged out the object behind his arm.
The opponent was indeed a stone statue hidden within the space, originally capable of movent, but as Xu Huo pulled it out from the space, its movent beca sluggish, its power waning, yet the grim expression remained, struggling to break free.
[Congratulations Player Passerby A for finding an unowned prop.]
[Stone statue in the spatial crevice: A semi-intelligent object capable of freely traversing spatial crevices, possessing certain autonomy, usually hiding in crevices to attack others. When unnoticed, it can easily drag a person into its familiar spatial crevice, causing disappearance cases with no traceable clues.]
[Note: Due to its autonomy, it is more suitable as an auxiliary tool.]
Xu Huo stored it in the prop inventory, ultimately evaluating it as a special item.
Unlike usual props with clear level distinctions, special items often have a variety of effects, particularly those able to exercise Free Action or possess a bit of cognitive intelligence, classifying them as special items.
In a sense, it actually belongs to the sa type as Mr. Dong and Little Pink Hat, just not as smart.
It can hide in the spatial crevice, so once released, it may not be easily found; given its low intelligence, it’s more suitable for use in instances.
Having decided on its fate, within the next half hour, Xu Huo unexpectedly caught two more. After multiple encounters, he gradually realized these things had low intelligence; when touching the Water Cube Barrier, their minds would stall because they couldn’t distinguish between touching a person or space, making their reactions slightly sluggish.
After catching three "stone statues in the spatial crevice," he was already far from the ruins entrance. Based on the estimated distance, he should be in the second layer of the Folded Space.
Since entering here, he hasn’t relaxed the Water Cube Barrier, as forces continuously attack him. Starting with small and light probes, escalating to dense attacks within minutes, causing the Water Cube Barrier to ripple wave-like many tis, and he himself continually changes positions in the Folded Space under the swirling forces.
The originally placed prop rope in the first layer of Folded Space had long snapped, and he repeatedly used ntal Portal to pull the distance back, but this only barely ensured he didn’t sink too deep. The surrounding situation and events remained unknown.
Feeling he had lingered a long ti, he maximized the release of the Spiritual World preparing to leave, yet unexpectedly, an anomaly suddenly erupted inside the Folded Space. A powerful force surged from beside him—like another space suddenly appeared, compressing the space he was in, squashing him into a corner.
As the two spaces compressed, a smaller space erged inside the larger one, repeatedly crushing Xu Huo’s body, and forcibly pushing him out of the larger space!
At that mont, Xu Huo was as if crushed by multiple spaces like a worm. Because the Water Cube Barrier deford under the influence of the space, to avoid being crushed inside, he could only put props on himself, inching his way to wiggle out.
Fortunately, his childhood personality pulled him at a critical mont, yanking him out from the suffocating pressure atmosphere. But after escaping, he realized he hadn’t exited the ruins; observing nearby buildings, he seed to have entered a deeper area.
This space chamber was still soaked with water, and the excessively dense and overlapping buildings clearly differed from the original military data. This space seed to have cut the ruins into uneven blocks and stacked them together. Among the stitched buildings, Xu Huo discovered silhouettes of several military players, so remained intact, others had turned into stone statues, all dead.
