The journey to Teyvat from the Abyss Mage

Chapter 52 The Protagonist Outside the Stage

At the party, dancers danced gracefully on the dance floor, with flashy neon lights draped over their bodies. They all thought that they were the protagonists of the party.

…………

No matter how much everyone discussed it, it was unlikely to make any new progress regarding the Beast Realm Hounds, so after a brief discussion, everyone decided to continue to act separately to ease the crisis in the Wolf Territory while ensuring their own safety.

"Luo Mu, why don't you come with us? You are not good at swordsmanship and you are easy to get hurt." Paimeng floated on Ying's shoulder, rising and falling. Ying also nodded. She saw Luo Mu's strength. He was very strong, but not balanced. He was obviously panicked after being approached. It would be much safer to have someone who knows swordsmanship to cooperate with him. This can be regarded as an apology for wanting to kill him the first time he saw him.

Kaiya turned around in surprise and looked at the travelers Ying and Luo Mu with amusement.

Oh my god, is today my lucky day? Luo Mu felt that he was starting to get cocky. He was about to agree when his face suddenly changed.

"No, thank you." Luo Mu said politely: "My ability is enough to protect myself, and dividing into several groups will also help to quickly clear the area. I still have some things to do, so I'll leave first." With that, Luo Mu straightened his back and walked into the jungle on the side.

"Huh? What's going on?" Paimon looked at Ying in confusion, and the two exchanged puzzled looks.

Wendy, who had remained silent all this time, suddenly had a strange light in her eyes.

…………

Luo Mu walked in the jungle of Benlang Territory like a dried-up corpse, even his joints were not bent. His delicate facial features were tightly wrinkled, as if he was resisting some irresistible force.

This power came from the Hilichurl mask that he put away!

What on earth is going on! Luo Mu only felt that his consciousness was pulled into a completely dark space. He could think freely, but he couldn't feel his body at all.

In less than three minutes, Luo Mu had tried everything he could think of to regain control of his body, but he was horrified to find that even the system was blocked by the endless darkness. At least in Luo Mu's consciousness, the power that controlled him had authority over the mysterious system.

Luo Mu had no choice but to let that power control him, walking step by step towards the unknown distance.

Bang! The darkness in his mind suddenly dissipated, and Luo Mu was able to freely control his body again. The sudden freedom made him a little unbelievable. In a hurry, he kicked a tree trunk that was hovering on the ground, tripping Luo Mu to the ground. He tried his best to raise his head, and what came into his sight was a pair of black combat boots.

"Finally I meet you, Abyss Mage." The clear young man's voice echoed above Luomu's head: "Let me introduce myself. My name is Kong."

Kong! This name hit Luo Mu's heart like a heavy hammer. He stood up tremblingly, looking at the handsome young man in front of him who looked very similar to Ying. He slowly took two steps back, trying to distance himself from Kong.

According to Luo Mu's personality, he should have turned around and run away at this time. If he couldn't run away, he should immediately admit his defeat and swear a poisonous oath that he would be with Brother Long for the rest of his life. If I betrayed him, I would be a pigeon raised by Timmy! What kind of backbone is it? He should wait until he survives and then slowly fight with Brother Long.

But now he really couldn't run away. Although he had regained basic control over his body, it was only basic control. Abyssal magic, system skills... none of them could be activated normally. Without the assistance of these spells, he didn't even have a glimmer of hope. Kong had already firmly controlled him.

"Your Highness... Kong." Luo Mu barely controlled his racing thoughts and said, "Are you here to... erase me?"

Alas, I kept complaining in my previous life: Why didn’t those big guys personally take action to kill the protagonist when he was at his weakest? Now, I’m getting my retribution in this life.

"Erase you?" Sora smiled and said, "Why should I erase you?"

Hmm? He...isn't here to kill me? Luo Mu suppressed his doubts and asked carefully, "You didn't betray the Abyss for me?"

"No one in this world can betray the Abyss." Kong replied. He waved his hand to let Luo Mu sit down, and he casually cut down a towering tree that five people could hug with a sword. As the huge tree trunk fell, it strangely turned into a bunch of flying ash, and before it fell to the ground, it completely dissipated into the air. Kong sat on the tree stump.

"No one will join the Abyss, and no one will betray the Abyss. It's just that some people are born to belong to the Abyss." Kong continued, and he pointed at Luo Mu's storage bag through his white robe: "Like the guy you killed, it didn't have the chance to rebel. Because it was born to be a servant of the Abyss."

"Even that old wolf can see the peculiarity of your soul, so I can see it too," Kong said with a self-deprecating smile, "I can't force a human to stay in the abyss."

"So today you..."

"I'm just here to give you some advice." Kong replied: "Don't get involved in the affairs of the Wolf Territory."

"What?" Luo Mu suspected that he had heard it wrong.

Kong stared at Luo Mu seriously and said word by word: "Don't get involved in the affairs of the Wolf Territory."

"You should have seen that the Abyss played a role in this matter. The old wolf also had some plans. I am personally in control of the situation in the Wolf Territory. This is no longer an event that you can participate in."

"You are just dancers who are called upon to dance on the dance floor, but the real protagonists will be sitting on the viewing platform on the second floor, right?" Kong patted the dust off his clothes and stood up: "Don't be a dancer. Sometimes you have to learn to watch." After saying that, he turned around and left without waiting for Luo Mu to respond.

"Wait!" Luo Mu called out to Kong for some unknown reason: "Um, Your Highness Kong, your sister is here too, don't you want to go... see her?"

Kong stood there blankly. He was silent for a moment and whispered, "I've been watching her the whole time."

"This is her journey. I won't disturb her until the very end." Kong's figure disappeared in the shade of green leaves. Luo Mu was surprised to find that the towering ancient tree that Kong had cut off with his sword had returned to its original state. However, the smooth bark told Luo Mu that this was not an ancient tree, but a "new bud" that had just grown.

What on earth is this... Luo Mu’s doubts are about to fill his mind.

The Lord of the Abyss suddenly arrived and communicated with Luo Mu, who was now obviously his enemy, and left in a hurry after leaving a "warning". Luo Mu guessed that Kong might help him, but he never expected that Kong would communicate with him in such a straightforward way.

But this also shows that the Abyss Cult attaches great importance to the affairs of the Wolf Territory, and some aspects are even beyond Kong's control. Otherwise, he probably wouldn't have to use such a hasty method to meet Luo Mu.

Looks like there's a chance, I need to talk to some Abyss Mages.
