[Hunter] False World

Different world.

Through.

Kurolo didn't spend too much time being shocked by the fact that July almost told the truth. On the contrary, he thought that this seemingly fooling statement was more convincing.

Qiyue is different from Nian's strange ability, as well as the seabirds around her whose history and species cannot be checked, the hometown of Winter Island she said, and the strong sense of unreality when she looks at this world.All the puzzles that he was curious about seemed to become reasonable if they were put on the fantasy explanation of "traveling through different worlds".

So is the liar also lying this time?

At the end of the last world, a group of relic hunters disappeared mysteriously during the exploration of the relics. The Hunter Association at that time seemed to hide the truth and related documents for some purpose.According to the information held by Kuroro, these all happened shortly after the disappearance of the madman Gerald Byron.

What was the great discovery that this lunatic threatened back then?Why did the Hunter Association hide the truth?Why do relic investigators mysteriously disappear? ...

A series of clues are connected together, and the place where July appeared is indeed Caria, it can be boldly assumed that what Grad discovered was the space channel, and the mysteriously missing relic explorer just passed through the unknown space-time tunnel!

Oh, it's more interesting than expected.

Kuroro believes that July did not lie, but he did not tell the whole truth.

What concerned him the most was where she woke up, and July said it was by the sea.

Disappearing in a whirlpool and waking up on the beach sounds reasonable, but Kuroro thinks it's a lie.

He believes that if there is a parallel world passage, it must be inseparable from the ruins.And judging from the urgency with which Qiyue longed to return to her original world, she had never seriously explored this sea area.

Kurolo has always believed that July's weakness is water, or other substances that can restrain fire.But July doesn't seem to be afraid of water, her body can be completely soaked in the bathtub, even if she gets wet all over at the previous ceremony, it won't affect her performance.The only doubtful thing is that she never swims in the sea. If, as she said, her world uses sailing as the main transportation, shouldn't proficiency be a basic skill for survival?

So according to July's statement, Kurolo concluded that she is looking for a way to return to the original world, and she thinks there are traces to follow, so she doesn't want to spoil the situation by herself.In addition, Kurolo believes that sea water is likely to be the Achilles heel of July.The more she tried to cover up, the more exposed she became.

Being drunk was not a good feeling, and a buzzing head with a headache made it difficult for him to think clearly.

Kurolo didn't ask July any more questions that night.He just came to take a vacation and visit the mysterious ruins here by the way.He just happened to meet this woman named Qiyue and became interested in her enigmatic abilities.Unexpectedly, these mysteries got bigger and bigger, and finally became entangled together.

"Do you want to go back?"

"really want."

"I can help you."

"You don't look that kind. Is there any reason? Just like today, you got drunk for me in exchange for me saying these things to you?"

"Oh, you're really mean, can't you be more romantic like ordinary women. Maybe there are other reasons besides what you said."

"I'm just telling the truth, if you want me to be like an ordinary woman, you can be so fascinated by you, lose myself, so that you can manipulate me at will. Then you can assume that my sanity has dropped to 0, and I am running towards negative infinity, or more Improve your acting skills, at least incorporate even the slightest emotion."

"The space-time channel you are looking for is very interesting. Is this reason enough? If not, I have additional conditions. As a reward for helping you, you must let me study it."

"...you've already calculated it, haven't you?"

"Oh, then do you accept it?"

The wind blows open the curtains, and the moonlight falls into the night.

At this moment, Qiyue leaned her head against Kuroro's bed. She stared at the man who was half leaning on the bed and grinned, "I accept."

Maybe she fell in love with this man's dangerous breath.

Or she fell in love with the hope that she could return home.

Another month has passed in a hurry, and time always leaves people far behind without mercy.

During this month, Kuroro occasionally stayed in the study to study the lunatic diary left by Glad Byron, occasionally studied July, occasionally went out, and occasionally took vacations.

Qiyue thinks that he is more interested in studying his own strange physique than the madman's diary.

That pervert Kuroro found at least a dozen ways to injure himself. For example, he once tried to cut off part of the air, so that the fire in July could not burn due to lack of oxygen. While preventing her body from becoming elemental, he used The dagger cut her.

Although this includes the situation in which Qiyue intentionally let him get injured, the analogy cannot hurt her life in actual combat, but for Qiyue who has not been injured for more than ten years, the pain is not good.

In addition to being studied by Kuroro, July put more energy into the search for the cave passage.

In fact, July thinks that it is unlikely that Grad's diary will mention the space-time channel. After all, the place where she wakes up is not a ruin, but an uninhabited cave in the wild forest.But she will not give up any possibility. In July, Kuroro is a very smart man. He must have his own reasons for focusing on the ruins.

Taking out the dagger from his waist pocket, Qiyue has drawn countless marks in the cave passage.

Light up the last wooden stick in your hand, and July walks into another fork in the road.

Is it going to return without success this time?

There is no sound in the cave, and a clear echo will be brewed when a stone is kicked.The strange rocks at the top of the passage are upside down, and when you walk in, water drops drip like stalactites.

July stopped to take a closer look at this passage. The rock wall was rougher and the road was longer, especially the dripping rocks overhead... In contrast, although most of the other passages are so natural, but There are more traces of being deliberately carved.

An idea suddenly flashed through his mind!

This thought made Qiyue tremble with excitement!In the darkness, his pupils widened unnaturally, and his pace became faster and faster!

Maybe here really is the key she was looking for!

The more you cover up, the harder it is to cover up!It is impossible for ordinary caves to be so intricate!Although this place may itself have a complicated interior, more passages seem to be dug by hand!

For those who enter from the outside, it is naturally impossible to find the key, and they often exit after going through several dead ends.But Qiyue is different, she first came out of it, she came to this world from this hidden secret!

There was no dripping water in other passages, but this one was slightly damp, which meant that the end of this passage was probably the pool water she saw that day!

The trot turned into a trot, and July staggered into the cave.

She was so happy that her eyes were shining, imagining that there would be a puddle of water in front of her, connected with hope!

However, the scene that caught her eyes made her dumbfounded.

This is an empty mine cave.

It's big, smells dank, but doesn't have the pool water you'd expect.

The amber pupils dimmed, and the lazy eyes fell around... Did you guess wrong...

Stopping her steps and looking around, Qiyue lowered her head slightly, took a deep breath, and then slowly raised the corners of her stiff mouth, brewing a smile just for herself.

The firewood burned out, and July ignited a flame at the fingertips, continuing to move deeper.

There is only one low-lying place in the huge cave, and there is some muddy soil when you step on it, but most of them are still hard rocks.

July leaned over and wiped some dirt from the low-lying place to the tip of her nose.

Salty taste.

Going a little further, in a low depression, July poked open more accumulated soil with his hands, and twisted it away, revealing some tangled seaweed.

In July, she could feel her heart beating violently in her chest.

poof.Plop!

It's like riding a roller coaster with ups and downs.One moment is hope, the other moment is disappointment, intertwined and layered, making her almost unable to control herself!He was so nervous that his hands trembled slightly.

Walking forward almost close to the ground, Qiyue can still touch the water stains left in the cracks in the ground.

One foot forward, the muddy land stayed without warning!

The right foot is sunken, but the left foot is lifted in the air!Dazed for a moment, Qiyue suddenly fell down uncontrollably!

In a crisis, she stretched her hand upwards and grabbed the nearest ground tightly!

"Puff-"

You can clearly hear the echo of the collapsed stones hitting the rock wall and falling into the deep water.

so close……

Half of July's body was submerged in the water, and she couldn't use her feet at all.At this moment, she is hanging vertically at the entrance of the cave, and can only rely on the strength of her upper body to climb up!

The gravel scratched the fingertips, and the palms rubbed against the slippery ground to bleed.July finally climbed out of this big vertical drop hole.

Sitting paralyzed by the edge of the cave and regaining consciousness for a while, Qiyue felt that her feet gradually gained strength.

Below is sea water!

She ignited a large flame in the palm of her hand, illuminating this dark lair.

Now she was [-]% sure that this was the pool of water she had seen before, no, it was the pool of sea water!

This huge depression in the cave is where the seawater accumulated in the first place, and the vertical cave she just fell into is the channel through which the seawater surged up.The soil here was mixed with seaweed, smelling salty and damp, and the soil near the large vertical hole was softened by soaking, so much so that she almost fell just now.

July felt that she needed to calm down and organize her thoughts.

It is obviously a cave, why is it flooding into the sea?

Could it be that the channel is connected to the sea?

Since ancient times, there have been many accidents in which ships have sunk in the vortex, salvaged to no avail, and even the wreckage is not left... Could it be that the so-called passage to another world is actually hidden in the vortex of sea water? !

At the beginning, I was drawn into the vortex. Assuming that the vortex channel is true, then I was washed into this cave by the sea water, which just happens to explain it.

It may have been high tide at that time, and the sea water filled this place into a pool, and he was washed to land to be rescued.But these days happened to be low tide, and this cave reappeared in its original state.

Qiyue's slender eyebrows were twisted into a ball, the corners of her mouth had been bitten off before she knew it, and the bloody smell of licking seeped into her lips, only then did she suddenly realize that she relaxed.

Today's discovery seems to be a turning point, but it is also the biggest fatal injury.

Grabbing a small piece of rock, half of July leaned into the vertical cave just now.

Fingertips can barely touch the water.

Pulling her body back again, Qiyue brought her water-stained fingertips to her lips, and hesitantly stretched out her tongue to lick it.

The bright red lips were tightly pressed with the fingertips in their mouths, drooping down oppressively with a strange hue of blood-stained red.

This passage...is indeed directly connected to the sea...

Exiting the cave along the road, Qiyue's eyes were unfocused, and she put her hands on the necklace on her chest.

I don't know what Xia Ri is doing now?Are you crying and crying for your sister who was shipwrecked?Or are you looking for yourself all over the world?

Can a person... be lonely?

His fist was clenched in front of his chest, his nails digging deep into his palm.

Under the setting sun, Qiyue raised her head and took a few deep breaths, the rotten smell of forest trees poured into her nostrils.

After closing her eyes and cursing herself severely, Qiyue grinned.

I absolutely can't be so useless!

She still has summer, she must go back!

Leaving the wild forest, July returned to the beach with a muddy body.

The sandy beach under your feet is soft and soft, one foot deep and the other shallow, with the sound of waves crashing on the shore in your ears.

July walked extremely slowly, but she did not forget to raise her eyebrows and chuckle.

She decided to go to the cave to see what happened when the tide was out, even if she needed to seek Kuroro's help, even if it would reveal her weakness of fear of sea water.

However, before she could withdraw her thoughts, her body was pulled by an inexplicable force and flew back into the air.

Qiyue turned around in surprise, and before she could break free, a pair of powerful arms had firmly clamped her.

And almost at the same time, the poker pierced the skin on the side of the neck, and warm blood flowed down the veins.

"I'm here to find Kuroro Rushiru~?
