Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens
Chapter 1691: Outside the Game
Although countless curse words were rolling in their hearts, the chief shopkeeper and the other two had no time to care about anything else. All their attention was focused on the formation in front of them.
Their minds were tightly locked on the formation, and the formation jade in their hands continuously released various runes to control the changes in the formation. If someone was here, even if they didn't understand the formation runes, they could see that the three were a little flustered.
There was no time to talk, and they could only communicate with each other with their eyes. The chief shopkeeper looked at the "accountant" with anger on his face. Before, the formation suddenly stagnated and no one knew the reason, but now during the adjustment process, the "accountant" obviously made a mistake.
Looking at the chief shopkeeper helplessly, the accountant sighed with a guilty look on his face and refocused his eyes on the formation. Just after a breath of calm, the chief shopkeeper's eyes bulged slightly, and then he looked at another guest angrily.
The two of them made mistakes one after another, causing the formation that was just about to return to the right track to have problems again. Although this situation is not too serious, it will make it more difficult to adjust the formation, especially once it has a counterforce with the city defense formation, the existence of the formation will be exposed to the whole city in an instant.
However, it is almost impossible to reach that step. After all, there are three of them working together to adjust the formation in front of them. No matter which one has a problem, the other two will adjust it as soon as possible to get the operation of the formation back on track.
After finally working together to get the formation back to its original running track, the next moment the formation paused again for a moment, and then the three of them were busy again. This time, the big shopkeeper did not vent his dissatisfaction to anyone, but the "accountant" and "guest" secretly turned their heads to look at him.
After seeing the big shopkeeper's face like ten thousand years of ice, the two retracted their complicated eyes, and some of the dissatisfaction was controlled by each of them and not vented.
After the two retracted their gazes, a careful observation would reveal that the big shopkeeper's ears and neck were red, and there was also a hint of embarrassment in his eyes.
The "accountant" and the "guest" made mistakes repeatedly. Although the shopkeeper did not speak, his sharp eyes were equivalent to scolding them from head to toe.
I don't know if it was because he just focused on scolding people, or it was just a simple accident. The shopkeeper made a mistake right after that, and it was a big mistake that almost stopped the formation from running.
Although the other two did not say anything, the three of them knew that such a big mistake was very "low-level" for them, so the other two cast such a look at the shopkeeper.
In addition to being depressed, the shopkeeper was also very speechless. Although the formation in front of him was complicated and unimaginable, he was not completely ignorant. At least he had used the formation jade to adjust the formation countless times. Not to mention such a "low-level" mistake, he had almost never encountered a similar situation.
With confusion, depression, and shame, the shopkeeper forced himself to let go of distracting thoughts and focus on adjusting the formation again.
At this moment, a person was secretly laughing inside the formation. It was obvious that all this was done by him, and only he could do this without anyone noticing.
The index fingers of Zuo Feng's two hands were still lightly placed on the golden silk thread. The method used to help Captain Lin before was not only an attempt, but also a deeper understanding of the formation.
Retracting his fingers on the silk thread, Zuo Feng turned his attention to Captain Lin with a smirk. This feeling made Zuo Feng feel comfortable from the inside out. There was no danger, and he could see a series of good plays. The most interesting thing was that he could occasionally make a move and slightly adjust the story development of this play.
This time, Zuo Feng secretly made another move, which directly made the three big shopkeepers anxious and exhausted. They threw all their efforts on adjusting the formation, and temporarily had no time to worry about other people.
However, they did not need to worry too much, after all, the old city where the entire Lin family was located had been fully mobilized. All the sentries and sentries on the periphery were mobilized, and all the warriors inside went to the periphery, which was equivalent to emptying this part of the old city.
The three of the chief shopkeeper only need to fully activate the formation, and then they can let the formation run on its own. Those sub-formations will naturally play a role in dealing with external enemies, and they can then focus on adjusting the formation.
Of course, this is the most ideal situation. If there are no other changes, everything will be as expected by the chief shopkeeper, but there is a variable that no one knows, and this variable is Zuo Feng who is in the formation.
Captain Lin, who broke through the maze, was surrounded by emerald green aura. He looked aggressive, but he looked like he was fleeing.
Not far behind him, Yanzhi, who was wrapped in orange-red aura, followed closely in the air with a face full of hesitation and contradiction. She didn't dare to let Captain Lin walk around in this old city at will, and she didn't dare to intercept him easily.
Regardless of whether the mysterious man in front of her was really Captain Lin, she deeply understood one thing, that she was not qualified to fight with the other party based on her own strength.
She couldn't let Captain Lin go easily, at least she had to follow closely behind to find opportunities.
The two of them flew away one after the other. Captain Lin noticed that Yanzhi was following them and turned back. However, Yanzhi did not hesitate at all and turned around and ran away.
But when Captain Lin opened the door again, Yanzhi immediately turned back and continued to follow. The two of them kept a safe distance, neither widening nor shortening, and the situation looked very strange.
However, this situation only lasted for a moment, and Captain Lin suddenly felt a fog suddenly appearing in front of him. Or it can be said that Captain Lin did not notice it at all before, and when he noticed it, he had already crashed into the thick fog.
"No, it's an illusion!"
Captain Lin's pupils shrank slightly, and his body subconsciously stepped back, and then he rushed out of the thick fog. When he saw the scenery outside the thick fog clearly, Captain Lin's heart sank directly to the bottom of the valley.
In front of him were rows of houses and courtyards close together, forming large blocks of buildings. This was exactly the appearance of the old city where the Lin family was located, but after seeing this, Captain Lin frowned even more deeply.
His eyes did not fall on the buildings below, but looked far away at the distant eastern sky. There was a slight change in the eastern sky before he fell into the fog, that is, the sky had turned slightly white.
If ordinary people may not notice it, there is nothing wrong, but Captain Lin always pays attention to the surrounding situation and secretly calculates the time. He clearly knows that there are about two quarters of an hour before dawn. At this time, the eastern sky is white, which means that there is a time error of about two quarters of an hour before and after he entered the fog.
Since it is an error, it means that everything he sees does not exist in reality, whether it is the house below or the "fish belly white" in the eastern sky, all of this is unreal.
When seeing all this, Captain Lin's face looked more nervous than before. As a member of the Lin family, of course he knows something about the maze and the illusion. Especially compared to the maze, the illusion is more difficult to deal with.
The maze makes it impossible to distinguish the direction. Obviously, you are trapped in the game, but you can't get out. But everything around you is not nothingness, those are real.
But the illusion is much more terrifying. Whether it is the scenery you see, the sounds you hear, the smell you smell, or all the feelings you touch, they are not real.
That is to say, if someone approaches him at this time, Captain Lin cannot detect it through his five senses at all. All he can do is to spread his spiritual energy with all his strength as the only means to perceive the surroundings.
About ten feet away from Captain Lin, the fire attribute spiritual energy outside Yanzhi's body gradually converged, and only a small part was released outside, keeping flying in the air.
In front of her, she could see that the space was slightly distorted, but this was not a real change in space, but after the eyes touched this area, they were blocked by some special force, which was of course the power of the formation.
Yanzhi tried her best to suppress the spiritual energy and let herself float forward very slowly, as if everything was normal and there was no special change. But at a certain moment, Yanzhi stopped suddenly, and then she stretched out her hand to touch forward.
The next moment, she saw her fingers, palms, and wrists began to blur one by one. This feeling was a bit like watching her hand reach into the water with her own eyes.
Seeing this scene, Yanzhi's expression moved, and she stretched out her hand to take out a formation jade, which was almost exactly the same as the one in the hands of the big shopkeeper and others.
The array jade was activated in Yanzhi's hand, and array runes flew out to wrap her body. She reached into the array again, and in the same position, Yanzhi could see her palm clearly this time, and was obviously no longer affected by the power of the array.
Nodding gently, Yanzhi moved and floated forward. She could feel a slight change outside her body. If she hadn't been wrapped by the power in the array jade, she would have been confused by the illusory scenery in front of her like Captain Lin.
Although Yanzhi was in the array at the moment, she was not affected by it at all. Captain Lin in front of her looked around with a vigilant look, and his eyes were clearly on Yanzhi, but his eyes did not change at all.
With a cold smile, Yanzhi moved again and slowly floated forward. She was not affected by the array, and she could see the emerald green wood-attributed aura emanating from Captain Lin's body from a long distance.
She only needed to get as close to the opponent as possible and suddenly launch a full-strength attack outside the opponent's aura. By then, even if Captain Lin reacted at the last moment, it would be impossible to save the situation.
Zuo Feng, who was in the core of the formation, frowned unconsciously when he saw all this, and said to himself: "Although this guy is annoying, if I lose him now, it will be disadvantageous to me in the overall situation. Captain Lin must be kept to fight against the chief manager and his people."
