My Skills Have Special Effects

Chapter 183 Mist and Shadow

On the other side, inside the insect hunting camp.

Because a large number of powerful experts descended into the underground waterways, they did not have time to take care of the many genius seeds. Instead, all the genius seeds were idle.

Jiao Liang was like this. He had nothing to do but sit in the camp at the door of his tent, staring at the sky in a daze.

What I was thinking about was Yu Qian's thin, tough, and broken figure.

Ever since that day, when he saw Yu Qian's appearance in the Liu family dungeon, Jiao Liang could not forget it.

She was like a pure white snowflake falling in a rotting dungeon, which often made him dream back in the middle of the night, wishing that he would be the one to rush down and rescue her.

These days, he has also launched a passionate pursuit of Qian, and they often go in and out together. Whenever Yu Qian accepts an exploration mission, he will always climb up and join her.

I just hope that Yu Qian can look at him one more time and say one or two more words to him.

However, Yu Qian has always been lukewarm towards him, like an eternal ice peak that cannot be approached.

In fact, he also knew that although Yu Qian didn't say it, there was someone vaguely hidden in her heart.

Mr. Lin Yanlin, I heard that he and Yu Qian were once brothers and sisters, and they both entered Longmen Hall at the same time, so they had a deep friendship with each other.

Moreover, he was from a humble background, but his strength was extremely powerful. He was a hundred times stronger than those genius seeds from silver-level and gold-level cities.

I heard that he has achieved extremely powerful and precious Xuanpin power characteristics, which is no longer on the same level as genius seeds like them...

Such a legendary figure, such a legendary experience, any woman would fall in love with him, right?

The more Jiao Liang thought about it, the more bitterness filled his heart.

Although Mr. Lin Yanlin seemed to have no interest in Qian.

"Oh, why couldn't I have met such a wonderful woman like Yu Qian earlier..."

But he never thought that if he really met Yu Qian earlier, would he still be the same Yu Qian?

Would he be tempted by Yu Qian like that again?

Jiao Liang is free and easy by nature. He only feels sorry for himself for a while on weekdays, but will soon cheer up.

But for some reason today, the more I thought about it, the more depressed I became, as if there was an invisible barrier blocking my heart, pushing my thoughts and emotions into a narrow corner.

Feeling depressed in his heart, Jiao Liang stood up from the wooden bench.

"Jiao Liang, I'm looking for you."

Jiao Liang turned around and saw that the person coming was Tao Chen, a fellow genius from Ding'an City, the poor man whose mother had hanged herself to pave the way for him.

However, after becoming a genius, Tao Chen got away with it. He was very good at dealing with people and was born to be good friends with people, so he made many friends from other cities.

For example, now, not only Tao Chen is here, but also a man who is obviously noble and imposing.

Even in this simple camp, he was still wearing luxurious clothes, and his status was obviously extraordinary.

The man's eyes were indifferent. He just glanced at Jiao Liang and then looked away. It seemed that he didn't pay much attention to Tao Chen beside him.

Jiao Liang frowned slightly. The relationship between him and Tao Chen was not close. It was limited to the friendship between participating in the talent competition in the same city.

"Tao Chen, what do you want from me?"

However, Tao Chen looked mysterious and mysterious. He walked to Jiao Liang and whispered: "Brother Jiao, can you take a step to speak?"

Jiao Liang frowned and wanted to refuse.

But an idea came to his mind that Tao Chen would bring someone here to look for him, so he wouldn't let him lose face.

So he nodded and followed Tao Chen to the side.

"Brother Jiao, I have a fortune, I wonder if you are willing to accept it!"

good fortune?

What good fortune can he have?

Jiao Liang instinctively wanted to refuse.

But many thoughts popped up in my mind unconsciously, Yu Qian, and Lin Yan...

The gap between him and Lin Yan was like the great chasm in front of him, which could not be crossed...

So, listen to what Tao Chen said... What if?

Tao Chen talked about it, and the general meaning was that he discovered a mysterious place on the edge of the mountains and fields. There was a precious and rare plant growing in it, but it was guarded by evil beasts. He wanted to invite Jiao Liang to go with him. After killing the evil beast and obtaining the rare items, the benefits will be equally divided.

"This Jin Chen is a helper I invited. He is a genius from Gulan City. He is powerful. But the two of them are not safe, so I found you specifically!"

Jiao Liang subconsciously became vigilant.

Tao Chen found him out of nowhere, saying that he had discovered a strange object, and then asked him to be his helper out of nowhere.

Don't talk about whether he found the rare object, just say that he was lucky enough to find the rare object. If he found him so casually, wouldn't he be afraid that he would leak it to him?

He subconsciously wanted to refuse.

However, many thoughts popped up in my heart again.

Yu Qian and Lin Yan are worlds apart...

An idea that even he himself thought was quite weird came up, what if?

What if Tao Chen is really lucky and discovers it?

Once this idea emerged, it immediately took root and sprouted, rising in the wind, and suddenly occupied Jiao Liang's mind!

If I can get a strange object, maybe I can also achieve powerful strength characteristics. By then, Yu Qian may not be so indifferent to me...

Jiao Liang's heart was pounding, and his reason told him that Tao Chen was probably playing tricks on him.

But the uncontrollable greed and the unquenchable jealousy caused the years to expand until they filled his heart.

He only hesitantly asked Tao Chen about his suspicions, and after receiving a few reasonable answers from Tao Chen, he agreed. Together with Tao Chen and the complete stranger Jin Chen, he left the camp and headed towards the distance. We walked to the mountains further away from Anseong.

Halfway through, Jiao Liang also realized that he was too impulsive. What happened today?

Got carried away?

He actually agreed to Tao Chen's request out of nowhere.

It seems that I have been carried away by love. Emotions are dangerous and fascinating.

An idea popped up again.

It was because of Yu Qian that I agreed to come here.

If you don't even dare to take this risk, how can you talk about giving your heart to Qian?

Gradually, in Jiao Liang's heart, hunting "evil beasts" with Tao Chen became a test to verify his love for Qian. Since it was a test, he should naturally face the difficulties without fear.

The way forward.

The dense forest became deeper and deeper, the sky gradually dimmed, and the sounds of insects, ants, snakes, and rats slowly faded away.

This place is not within the scope of the poisonous fog, but apart from the trees and forests, there seem to be very few other animals and creatures.

As a member of a wealthy family in Ding'an City, Jiao Liang naturally knew that Ding'an City, a hundred miles away, was a restricted area for humans, wrapped in fog.

But isn’t it true that we haven’t reached the fog yet? What’s more, the distance we have traveled has not reached a hundred miles either…

I guess so?

Just as he was thinking this, Tao Chen suddenly stopped, and the other two people also stopped.

"Have you ever felt that... the sky has gotten a little darker?"

Tao Chen watched carefully from side to side.

Jiao Liang and the two people named Jin Chen looked left and right, and both noticed something was wrong.

The surrounding air seemed to be a little thicker and thicker, just like burying your head in water and looking at the world, so that the light was much dimmed.

Suddenly, a thin, silver-gray mist floated past the three of them.

The expressions of the three people suddenly changed: "Fog! This is fog!"

But it seemed that the three of them woke up too late. In just an instant, silver-gray mist appeared out of thin air, as if growing from the space, and began to appear densely around them.

"Quickly retreat!"

Tao Chen had also heard of Mist. As the leader, he immediately shouted and the three of them immediately retreated.

However, the forest road was difficult to walk, and the surroundings were exactly the same. After only a few steps, the silver-gray fog enveloped the surrounding world. They ran all the way, but no matter what, they could not escape from the fog!

Jin Chen's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he shouted sternly: "Tao Chen! It's all your fault! What a strange thing! Tell me what to do!"

Tao Chen was also sweating profusely and his face was pale: "I, I really saw something strange! Keep running, yes, keep running, run quickly!"

The three of them were all in the high realm, and their footsteps were not slow. After a while, they had already traveled several miles, and should have reached within a hundred miles of Ding'an City.

But the silver-gray mist around him only continued to thicken, covering everything.

"Damn it!"

Jiao Liang glared at Tao Chen fiercely.

Suddenly, in the mist, a loud noise was heard. The sound was low, like the sound of a giant object falling to the ground.

"what!"

Thanks to the previous training at Qianyuan Academy and the tactics used to face the corpse cockroach, they immediately formed a defensive formation back to back.

Deep in the silver-gray mist, it seemed like a surging ocean tide, like a giant whale tumbling and rolling up the waves.

But soon, the sound suddenly stopped, and everything fell silent.

Tao Chen took a long breath and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Maybe it's the sound of the wind..."

Looking back, he saw Jiao Liang and Jin Chen, their whole bodies seemed to be frozen, and their faces had extremely frightened expressions. Their eyes were as wide as copper bells, and their bloodshot eyeballs seemed to pop out of their sockets.

Tao Chen suddenly felt horrified, slowly turned his head, and immediately froze on the spot.

A dark figure that was forty to fifty feet high, like a mountain, stood in the mist behind the three of them.

Every part of his body was covered in fog, and his appearance could not be clearly seen at all, and he could only barely distinguish his human form.

However……

On his body, there are eight huge arms that are like towering giant trees, which can be vaguely seen. They are covered with terrifying and thick black hair like steel swords.

The eight arms swayed high, stirring the mist and rolling waves, like a giant spider.

The next moment, in the mist, eight blood-red lanterns suddenly lit up, like eyes, staring at the three people, and endless wild and bloody energy burst out.

In the mist, three screams were faintly heard.

——————

After a while.

The fog and the fog seem to be two different worlds, at the entrance of the insect hunting camp.

The three figures formed a team and slowly walked out of the dense forest, stepping on the camp.

It was Jin Chen, Tao Chen, and Jiao Liang.

The expressions of the three of them were as usual, except that their eyes were wide-eyed. They did not look at each other, but glanced back and forth in the camp.

After a lap, the three of them took steps in unison, but they walked slowly towards three different directions and three different goals.

Outside the camp, the poisonous fog has dissipated and has almost been eliminated.

There are dead trees everywhere, but they are bathed in the gentle sunshine.

The scorching sun was high above, illuminating the entire camp without any shadows. It also stretched out three dark, long black shadows pointing in three directions from under the three people.
