"It's over."
"That temple is doomed."
"Those are thugs. They require at least two Level 3 or Level 4 Templars to kill them. And it would be best if they were Elemental Hearts or Hunters..."
The warriors who fell to the ground by the explosion were pale, because of their own injuries and because the rescued temple might have met with an accident.
He smiled bitterly. "The thugs usually self-destruct before they die. The effective attack distance of the War God class is too short, and the mobility is poor. Even if we can kill it, we won't have time to escape before the explosion."
"What a pity, such a young person..."
The warrior sighed, holding onto the wall and trying to get up, and then he heard a series of strange gasps from inside his helmet. Looking up, a trace of fear flashed in the warrior's eyes.
Just in front of the corridor, wanderers came out from the big door next to it. Behind those twisted figures like lepers, there were hairless mad dogs walking lightly.
When these black people saw the warriors, they swarmed over in groups. The terrifying numbers of them made the warriors' eyes overflow with despair.
There were black civilians in front of him and the corridor behind him was blown up, so he had no way to retreat.
At this moment, a black light suddenly flashed on the wall next to it, outlining the shape of a "door". Then the wall collapsed with a loud bang, revealing a gap, and someone came out from behind the wall holding a black long sword.
The warrior's eyes suddenly lit up: "You're not dead? You're still alive!"
It's that young temple.
What makes you think I will die... Tianyang looked at the warrior in silence, and then his attention was attracted by the black people on the other side of the corridor.
“There are quite a few…”
"Try that one."
Tianyang's momentum suddenly rises, star energy appears, and power takes shape.
freed!
The warrior behind him suddenly felt an invisible wave gently passing through his body, and then he felt darkness and falling into the depths.
At this moment, bulges appeared in the shadows around the black people on the other side of the corridor.
The shadows were like sheets of thin black gauze, being lifted up one by one.
Suddenly, the bulges rose up, pulling out pieces of gauze-like shadow sections, sliding across the bodies of the black people in an instant. When the light shone, there were so many shadow sections in the corridor, they were interlaced, blocking the passage without leaving a single gap.
After three seconds, the shadow sections shrank back and the corridor returned to normal.
Under the lights, the black people were still in their original positions, not one was missing, but they had all stopped moving...
The warrior looked at Tianyang in confusion, not knowing what he had done. When he looked at the black people again, he suddenly found that there was a mad dog running in the front. Its face suddenly slipped off its head, revealing the skull and brain behind it...
Afterwards, the group of black people in the corridor fell down like broken porcelain, with dirty blood splattering everywhere, covering the entire corridor!
Inside the helmet, the warrior grinned from ear to ear.
Those shadows just now seemed to have no power, but they were like guillotines, easily cutting through the black people.
Moreover, those guillotines were thin and sharp, so after being retracted, the black people could maintain their shapes until one or two seconds later, when they completely fell apart.
What kind of ability is this
The warrior couldn't help but look at Tianyang.
Tianyang was recalling the details of the ability he had just activated. The ability of Shadow Killing could turn shadows into weapons. As long as there were shadows nearby, he could create thin shadow blades like the one just now.
this
The advantage of this ability is that it can be activated without any warning, no preparatory actions are required, and it does not need to be triggered by weapons.
It has a large range, no signs, and high lethality.
With the Shadow's class characteristics, as long as the opponent is not familiar with his own abilities, there is a high probability that he can kill the opponent.
However, the disadvantage is also obvious. This ability requires the presence of shadows to be activated. In other words, it is very sensitive to the environment, but in the adverse world, it can play an unexpected effect.
I feel like it's very close to the dark side's abilities.
Tianyang put away Jinfeng and lifted up the warrior: "Come, I'll take you out."
They found another staircase to the hall, and when they came out of the hall door, Tianyang had the strange feeling of passing through the Clave Gate again.
Fortunately, he saw the defensive position, the lights, and He Wenchi, Wuhen and others.
The people on the defensive position also saw Tianyang and discovered that Tianyang was carrying a warrior out. Wuhen hurriedly brought a few people to help.
They sent the warriors to the position. He Wenchi came over and was about to ask questions, but Tianyang pulled him aside and said softly: "This man may have been a member of the investigation team three years ago."
He Wenchi was shocked: "There are indeed survivors!"
He hurriedly took out an electronic board, activated an interface on the surface, and pointed with his fingers. A green light flashed on the helmet of the injured warrior not far away.
At the same time, the corresponding information appeared on the priest's electronic board: "Nanxun, born in Xiacheng District, his family are all church believers. Yes, that's right, it's him."
Tianyang glanced at the electronic board and found that the photo provided on it was indeed the same as the face in the helmet.
"Your name is Nanxun, right?"
He Wenchi put away the electronic board and walked over quickly: "Please tell me, what happened to you?"
The warrior named Nanxun raised his head and looked at He Wenchi in confusion: "Pastor He? Is this the rescue team you organized? You came really quickly. Priest Wei only sent the rescue message 48 hours ago. You came too quickly."
"Could it be that you are carrying out a mission nearby?"
There was dead silence on the defensive position.
Almost everyone heard the warrior's words clearly.
The rest is not important, the key is the sentence '48 hours ago', which means that this warrior named Nanxun has only been in the building for two days
Tianyang looked at He Wenchi in surprise and found that although the priest was surprised, he quickly adjusted himself, as if he had known this would happen.
"I will answer this question later. First, please tell me what happened in your building?"
Nan Xun showed a thoughtful expression: "After we arrived at the hospital, everything was normal. But after entering the building, something strange happened. We got separated..."
He Wenchi was puzzled and asked, "Lost? Are you lost?"
The warrior shook his head. "We are not lost. I still remember that two days ago, after we entered the building, we were exploring each floor. But when we reached the third floor, when our team passed the entrance and came back to our senses, there were only me, Priest Wei, and two others around us."
He Wenchi was stunned: "You mean, there was a whole team, but after passing the entrance, only a few of you are left?"
The warrior nodded: "Yes, we tried to contact other people, but failed. Priest Wei felt that the situation was too unusual, so he sent a distress message. I thought we would not be able to get rescued, but I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly..."
He struggled to stand up and pointed at the building, saying, "Quick, Wei Siji and the others are still inside, go in and save him. You..."
The warrior suddenly found that the people around him were staring at him.
As if there were a flower on his face, he asked in confusion: "Why are you looking at me?"
He Wenchi took two steps back and exchanged glances with Tianyang next to him. Tianyang shook his head, indicating that he could not understand.
"What are you doing? What's wrong with my face? Tell me... Wait, why did my voice change? Why did it become so hoarse and old?"
Nan Xun seemed to have thought of something terrible and shouted, "Mirror! Someone give me a mirror!"
At this moment, under this protective suit and helmet, the young warrior who was only in his twenties was aging at an extremely fast rate.
His skin quickly lost its luster, and the muscles in his face drooped and then began to contract.
The soft black hair was now covered with a layer of white frost, turning grey in the blink of an eye.
The warrior's eye sockets began to sink, his eyes became cloudy, his body was shrinking under the protective suit, and he suddenly looked decades older.
Moreover, this process is continuing and accelerating.
"Mirror... "
After uttering two more words, the warrior, who had already become like an old man, fell to the ground, opened his mouth wide, and exhaled his last breath with difficulty.
died...
Wuhen was about to take off his helmet.
"Don't touch him!"
Tian Yang shouted, and at the same time said: "Stay away from me, we may be carrying something."
Everyone was shocked.
Only He Wenchi said calmly: "It's not what you think. This is not a virus or a result of my ability. This is the 'backlash of time'."
Nuo Jin, who looked frightened, almost shrank behind Wuhen and asked in a low voice, "What is 'the backlash of time'?"
He Wenchi habitually tried to lift up his glasses, only to find that he was wearing a helmet, so he put his hand down again: "Remember the survivor from before? He was sent to the fortress for treatment, and everything was fine. But not long ago, he suddenly aged rapidly."
"The weird thing is, we tried everything, but we couldn't find the cause. He wasn't sick, he wasn't affected by his abilities, he didn't have any virus. But the cells in his body were aging at an extremely fast rate. It was as if time was flowing a thousand times faster for him than for other people."
"One day passed for us, but he passed for ten years, or even more. Just like that, within a few days, he died. He died of old age..."
He Wenchi pointed at Nan Xun on the ground and said, "It's the same for him. Time is accelerating for him, but the situation is more serious than that of the last survivor. We call this phenomenon 'the backlash of time'."
"It's just that, although there have been cases of time backlash in the past, they were never as serious as these two cases. That's why we came here."
"We suspect that this is a 'time gap' rather than an ordinary 'space gap'."
Tian Yang said in a deep voice: "Master He, why didn't you tell us these things in advance?"
He Wenchi smiled bitterly: "I can't help it. This is the secret rule of the church. Only when it comes to it can I reveal the information."
"So, if the same thing hadn't happened to this person, would you have continued to hide it?" Wuhen said with a frown.
He Wenchi nodded: "That's right. The fewer people who know about these secret knowledge, the better. You don't have to be angry. Even if I didn't explain things like this, as long as you contribute enough to the church, sooner or later you will be exposed to this knowledge. It's just a matter of time."
"And if I'm already involved, then it will be like this, I will explain it in detail to avoid mistakes that lead to disasters."
