Quick Wear: Passerby A's Counterattack Revised Plot

After a pause, Qi said, "I think we should go find that island first and see what secrets the crystal ball hides. Perhaps that is where we can find the truth."

Mu Luoxi asked: "Although...but why not go to the desert?"

Shi Qi said: "I have checked the desert! There is nothing to see, or... let's wait until I find a solution to that problem before going there! The reason for going to the island is because, didn't you say you haven't finished checking it yet? Then let's go!"

Mu Luoxi nodded, "Let's go! But where exactly is that island? Last time the system sent me there directly, so I don't know the exact location. How should we find it?"

Shi Qi took out an old map from her bag. The edges of the map were yellowed, and it was obviously quite old. "Fortunately, I was prepared. This map marks all the known mysterious places, including the island." She pointed to a small dot marked with a circle on the map and said.

Mu Luoxi widened his eyes and said in surprise: "Ah? Why do you all have this kind of mysterious equipment!"

Shi Qi shrugged and said with a relaxed look: "Find the system to change it!"

Mu Luoxi frowned and answered unwillingly: "I looked for it, but the system said it didn't exist."

Shi Qi blinked and said mischievously: "Maybe... the system is in a bad mood and doesn't want to give it to you!"

Mu Luoxi looked puzzled, as if he had heard something incredible, "Really? Can the system get angry too?"

Shi Qi spread his hands, looking innocent, "Maybe! How else can I explain that I have it and you don't?"

Mu Luoxi shook his head helplessly and said with a smile: "Okay, then let's go to the island!"

The two men gathered their thoughts and set out on their journey again. The stars circled in the sky, guiding them in the direction. They passed through dense forests, crossed winding rivers, and so on.

After several days of trekking, they finally arrived at the edge of a small island.

The island was surrounded by a layer of light fog. They followed the instructions on the map and found the entrance to the island. The entrance was hidden behind a reef and would be difficult to find without the map.

They walked into the island and found that it was covered with dense forests and surrounded by blue water, which was completely different from what Mu Luoxi had seen before.

Mu Luoxi looked at the surroundings and said hesitantly, "This...is not the place I came to last time."

Shi Qi frowned when he heard this, looked around and said, "Indeed, this place is not quite the same as you described. Could it be that this island has different areas, or have we mistakenly entered another similar island?"

Mu Luoxi nodded, his heart full of doubts, "I don't know either, but I feel that the atmosphere here is completely different from last time. The island last time was more like an isolated space, and here... it feels more real."

"Forget it, let's take a look first! The map guides us here, as for the rest, we'll talk about it later!" Shi Qi said.

The two set foot on the island and began to explore further. They passed through dense woods, crossed gurgling streams, and finally came to an open space.

In the center of the open space, there is a huge altar, on which is placed a crystal ball that is shining brightly.

Mu Luoxi recognized the crystal ball at a glance. It was the one he had seen on the island before. However, the light it emitted was brighter and stranger than before.

"Look, that's the crystal ball!" Mu Luoxi pointed at the crystal ball on the altar and said to Shi Qi.

Shi Qi approached the crystal ball. She felt that it was ordinary and a little strange. "It seems that there is nothing special about this thing!"

After hearing what Shi Qi said, Mu Luoxi also walked over to the crystal ball to observe, "It seems so. It's different from what I saw then. Why don't we look for it somewhere else!"

Just as Mu Luoxi finished speaking, the crystal ball suddenly burst out with a strong light, illuminating the entire open space. There seemed to be some kind of power surging in the light, which made people feel an inexplicable shock.

Shi Qi and Mu Luoxi were blinded by the sudden light, and they quickly covered their eyes with their hands and took a few steps back. The light lasted for a few seconds, then gradually weakened and finally disappeared.

When they opened their eyes again, they were surprised to find that the crystal ball was no longer the ordinary one before, but...

"So...ugly...weird!" said Mu Luoxi.

Upon hearing this, Shi Qi smiled and patted Mu Luoxi's shoulder gently, "Haha, it is a bit... But, this may be its true appearance!"

The crystal ball now took on an indescribable shape. Its surface was not smooth and transparent, but covered with twisted cracks, like a hideous face, looming in the dimness.

Inside the sphere, the crystals that should have been clear and pure were replaced by turbidity, mixed with unknown dirty things, slowly wriggling, emitting an indescribable feeling of nausea.

What's even more terrifying is that there seems to be an invisible cold breath around the crystal ball, which makes people feel inexplicably depressed and uneasy when approaching it. It seems that this is not just an object, but a door to an ominous place, quietly releasing evil power.

The two stared at the ugly crystal ball, their hearts filled with confusion and vigilance. "What on earth is going on? It was fine just now." Mu Luoxi muttered to himself.

Suddenly, the crystal ball began to tremble violently, and the filthy things inside seemed to be disturbed and rolled around wildly.

A black mist poured out from the crystal ball and quickly condensed into a human figure.

"Hahaha, I finally waited for you..." The human-shaped black fog let out a sinister laugh.

"Don't get sick if you are sick. Go back and don't scare people." After Mu Luoxi said this, a supernatural power flew over.

The humanoid black mist smiled contemptuously and easily dodged Mu Luoxi's attack. At the same time, it stretched out a dark finger and pointed at the two people, "You are the key to unlocking the seal. Do you think you can get rid of me easily?"

Mu Luoxi dodged quickly and tried to use his weapon to block the attack of the black fog, but the black fog seemed to have its own will and nimbly avoided his attack. "What on earth is this thing? Why is it here?"

Shi Qi said, "Never mind him, just beat him back first. You've bullied me and now you still want to unlock the seal? Dream on!"

Before Shi Qi finished speaking, a dazzling light had already gathered in his hands and he moved towards the black fog.

"No..., sister, wait a moment, calm down, don't be impulsive." Mu Luoxi grabbed Shi Qi and said.

Shi Qi was pulled back by Mu Luoxi, and he took back the light. He looked at him in confusion, "What's wrong? We can't let this guy continue to be so arrogant!"

Mu Luoxi looked solemn. He pointed at the crystal ball and said, "Look, the changes in the crystal ball and the appearance of the black fog all show that things here are far more complicated than we thought. If we attack blindly, it may cause even greater trouble."

"No way! If you don't attack him now, when his energy is gathered, we will be the ones to die. After all, this is his territory, and we can't let the tiger go back to the mountain." Shi Qi said.

Mu Luoxi shook his head, his eyes firm, "No, we can't just act on our intuition. This black fog is obviously closely related to the crystal ball, and the changes in the crystal ball are so strange. We must first understand the situation before we take action."

After hearing what Mu Luoxi said, Shi Qi still felt unwilling, but she also knew that he had some truth. So, she put away her attacking posture and watched the black fog with Mu Luoxi vigilantly.

The black fog did not seem to be in a hurry to attack, it just floated slowly there, as if observing Shi Qi and Mu Luoxi. This silent confrontation made the atmosphere even more tense.

Suddenly, Black Mist made a deep voice, "Do you want to know the truth? Do you want to know the origin of this crystal ball and me?"

Shi Qi and Mu Luoxi looked at each other and saw confusion and vigilance in each other's eyes.

"You talk, we're listening." Mu Luoxi said in a deep voice.

Black Mist chuckled, and then began to slowly tell an ancient and mysterious story.
