The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 598 Dissipated Small Animals
On the other side, Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu were staring at the barrier in a daze.

Behind them, there is an ordinary-looking mountain, which is very small, without any big woods or anything that can be used to identify it. There are countless such hills in the underworld. Normally, The two of them would never look at each other more.

But now they couldn't help but look at it, because there was only this mountain top where they were, and other than this, the other places were dark.It's not the kind of darkness when it gets dark, but the darkness of nothingness. This mountain seems to be an isolated island floating in the void. Apart from its existence, other places are empty nothingness.

On the other side of that mountain, there is a transparent enchantment, but the strange thing is that this kind of enchantment seems to be one-sided. They can see the outside from the inside of the enchantment, but others cannot see from the outside. see inside.This is just the second thing. What both of them can't accept the most is that this enchantment seems to be impossible to enter. The two of them have seen countless creatures from the underworld come in from outside the enchantment, and then gradually disappear at this end.

When they saw it for the first time, both of them were scared to death.

Although the underworld is not small, it is not as big as the human world. The two grew up here since they were young, and they were responsible for patrolling after that. It can be said that they are very familiar with the underworld.However, even with such familiarity, the two still have many doubts. The most important point is that they have almost never seen small animals.

You know, the underworld is a separate space. Since Houtu became the six realms of reincarnation, this place has evolved into a world other than the human world after thousands of years of evolution. There are native animals and plants here, but In any such place, there will inevitably be a food chain.

Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu naturally haven't seen so many animals of all kinds in the human world, but even so, they can still see a lot of things in the illusion of the underworld, although these things are not real, more based on The memory of Hades was created as a prototype.But this does not mean that it is a castle in the air. After all, that illusion was set up to protect them, and Mr. Kunlun also participated in the production of it.

Therefore, many things are very real, otherwise, it would not be true as Lord Kunlun thought, protecting the clansmen of Houtu for so many years.So although Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu grew up in the underworld, they also know that there are small animals at the low end of the food chain in this world, but the strange thing is that there are no such animals in the underworld.The two had discussed this matter before.

Especially when they have grown up and taken on the task of patrolling and traveled to many places, this strange phenomenon has been rooted in their minds. Although they have also asked someone to ask, no one seems to have the answer to this question. Know.The entire underworld has become accustomed to the absence of lower animals. Few people will pay attention to this, and few people will think about the answer to this question.

Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu are probably the only two people here who recalled this matter.

And now, all these questions have answers.

It turns out that it’s not that there are no low-level animals in the underworld, nor that those animals are good at hiding, but because they have existed, but died, and they quietly escaped from this world in a way that no one has ever imagined or imagined. Disappeared.

When they saw those small animals for the first time, Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu were very excited. Although they were not so persistent in finding these animals, deep down in their hearts, they still wanted to prove that the underworld they lived in was a A complete world is a place that can exist independently outside of the human world, and the evidence of all this is that there is a complete and independent food chain.

And now, after searching for countless years, they finally proved this matter at an unexpected moment. How could this not make them happy?For a long time, because they were afraid that Mingjun would be sad when he remembered the past, they never mentioned this matter. Even if they asked, they would quietly ask some people in private, but they never let this matter go. Go to the stage and say it.

However, it has now been proved that their ideas are correct.

No matter what the underworld originally existed as, the current underworld has slowly become a new world.This world can completely exist without the human world, even if one day, it does not serve as a place for the reincarnation of those creatures in the human world, it can still exist.

Of course, the premise of all this is the existence of these little things.It's a pity that there seems to be some force preventing all of this from happening. These small animals that were quietly absorbed into the barrier and then slowly dissipated proved everything. No one knows how long this happened, and no one knows how No matter how many times everything has happened, it was a pure accident that they were able to come here.

"Say, can we still go out?" Xiao Liu asked suddenly as he watched a small animal gradually disappear into smoke in front of him.This was the first time he asked this question in so many days.

Since they came here, their strength has been weakened slowly. At the beginning, they were not without panic, but after seeing those little things gradually dissipating, they suddenly became open-minded.It turned out that there was an explanation for all of this. Those little things gradually dissipated due to the existence of this enchantment. Although their power was tens of millions of times stronger than those little things, their essence was the same.

If this enchantment can gradually disintegrate those forces, then it is normal to become weaker day by day.

"It should be possible." Hearing his younger brother's question, Xiao Wu, the elder brother, subconsciously spoke to comfort him: "Our patrols have always been traceable and regular. If we disappear rashly, the Lord will Surely he'll send someone to look for it, and it might take some time, but once they've looked for places we might be, they'll start looking for places we can't be, so we'll just have to wait."

It has to be said that, as an elder brother, Xiao Wu has a much better understanding of Ming Jun than his younger brother.He almost perfectly predicted all the actions of Hades, but in his own heart, he didn't have much hope for this matter.Because, where they can't come, obviously the Lord of the Underworld cannot come, even if the Lord of the Underworld is different from them, the blood of the witch clan is left in the body of the Lord of the Underworld, but after so many years, the power of the underworld has gradually entered No one can guess what the consequences will be if he appears here.

Therefore, for the sake of the peace of the underworld, neither Mingjun himself nor the brothers who stayed by his side will let him take this risk.Therefore, even if they found this place, they knew why they disappeared, but they couldn't find the right person to save them.What's more, how can I save it?

Even if they find someone who can enter the enchantment, how will they bring themselves out?
Hearing what his brother said, Xiao Liu felt a little comforted in his heart. He lay down on the spot, looked up at the empty sky and said, "I used to despise Xiao Qi's annoying chirping in my ears, but now I start to miss him. gone."

"Xiaoqi will be happy to hear you say that." Hearing him talking about the younger brother, Xiao Wu's mood also improved. The two of them were talking when they saw the place not far outside the barrier. The lights gradually came on.

However, the two were very calm.

In fact, they had seen such lights countless times before, but unfortunately, they could see the lights outside, but the people holding the lights obviously couldn't see them.No matter how they yell and struggle inside, in the eyes of people outside the barrier, they don't exist.Over time and more times, they gradually got used to it.

"Tell me, is it the Lord who sent someone to look for us again this time?" Xiao Liu saw the lights getting closer and closer, and he was still in the mood to joke.

"Besides the Lord, I'm afraid there is no other possibility." Xiao Wu said so, watching the group of people getting closer and closer until...

"Are you sure it's here!?" Hu Weixian frowned, looked at the empty space in front of him, turned to look at his companion and asked.

Yun Yuan didn't show any displeasure when he was questioned like this, he just stared at the compass in his hand, nodded after making sure, and said, "The compass told me that this is the right place."

"But here..." Nothing!
Before Hu Weixian could finish his words, Xuanze, who had been walking silently at the end, suddenly stepped forward to the open space, and then his figure seemed to be swallowed up by a transparent water-colored film. The silhouette began to gradually disappear in the eyes of the two of them.

Obviously, the answer is now very obvious, and there is a new enchantment in this place.

Seeing this, Hu Weixian didn't have time to say anything to Yun Yuan, he just turned his head and nodded at him, then followed Xuan Ze's footsteps and stood on the open space, while behind them, Yun Yuan stopped and started I started to take out various things from the package that I carried with me.

At first glance, those things are not very eye-catching, even a little messy, like children's toys stuffed in the package randomly, there are spinning tops and sieves, and the most exaggerated thing is that there is a pen that is half bald.

But after these things were sorted by Yun Yuan's hands, they began to look good.While tidying up, he looked up at the open space in front of him from time to time, as if he was preparing for something at any time.
