Ni Ji completely opened up his spiritual vision to Lin Yuan.
The waves of the sea are gentle, the beautiful underwater garden is defenseless, and the mysterious palace opens its doors.
Even the restrictions on the most secretive houses in the deepest parts of the buildings were lifted.
Lin Yuan's spirit dived into the deep sea, entered the mysterious and pure sea, and completely took control of the sentinel's body instead of the unconscious Ni Ji.
Things didn't go well when the battle first started.
The depths of the sentinel's mental landscape were delicate, soft, magnificent, and colorful, but also a sensitive and fragile place. Lin Yuan tensed up and moved his tentacles carefully, fearing that he would accidentally hurt Ni Ji and cause him serious mental damage.
On the one hand, he had to control Ni Ji's body to fight, and on the other hand, he had to be very careful not to damage his mind and body.
Unlike Lin Yuan, Fujilu controlled Aren's body, recklessly and aggressively, without worrying about whether the soulless body would be damaged.
"I thought you were very powerful, but you are nothing special." Fujilu said with a smile, "But it doesn't matter. I still like you very much. Wait until you become our partner and stay here. You will gradually become stronger."
She still had a beautiful smile, was gentle and shy, and spoke sincerely. When she said that she liked Lin Yuan, Lin Yuan could even feel her sincerity.
"Many people have died here. How many lives have you taken by using such words?" Lin Yuan asked her.
In the seemingly cozy little house, there are piles of canned marching food, sentry backpacks that have not been put away in time, and sentry combat uniforms from different teams.
All of this indicates that this seemingly warm little house is actually a bloody place soaked with the blood of countless sentinels.
Many sentries had been deceived into this house. They lost their lives, but the supplies they carried with them were left behind and became Fujilu's spoils.
"That can't be helped." Teng Lu lowered her head and rubbed her fingers. "I'm different from you. I'm very weak and it's hard for me to survive. Sister, can't you understand me?"
She sounded very aggrieved, and it seemed like she really didn't think she had done anything wrong. She only blamed Lin Yuan for not understanding her.
Completely ignoring his physical injuries, Ah Ren quickly broke through Ni Ji's blockade and forced his way in front of Lin Yuan.
They knew very well that if they killed the guide at all costs, the battle would be over.
Lin Yuan grabbed his own short knife with his backhand, and the short black and white dagger just caught Ah Ren's knife. The sharp blades collided, creating a dazzling spark.
There is an insurmountable gap in physical strength between sentinels and guides.
Lin Yuan took the blow with great difficulty, barely dodging the knife light and rolling to the side, with a strand of long black hair cut off in front of his eyes.
The arm holding the knife was behind her back. Her hand was numbed by the huge force of the sentry just now, and it kept shaking, and she almost couldn't hold the knife.
At the same time, in the sea of the spiritual picture, a pair of big hands came from behind and held Lin Yuan's hands.
It's Ni Ji's breath.
Lin Yuan turned around in surprise. There was no one behind him.
This is Ni Ji's spiritual world, but his spiritual body is sleeping. Where can we find Ni Ji's shadow
Gentle currents surrounded Lin Yuan in the mental picture, as if the sentinel stood behind her, surrounding her body and holding her hand.
Teach her step by step how to use her body.
"Don't be so caring. Treat me as the knife in your hand." Ni Ji's gentle voice floated along with the ocean current.
"I am a warrior who would rather be injured than lose to others on the battlefield."
in reality.
Facing a strong enemy, Lin Yuan clenched his sword tightly. A golden light shone in the depths of his black pupils.
The same golden color as Lin Yuan's appeared in the depths of Ni Ji's eyes, who was controlled by her. The magic sword was unsheathed, and the red blade cut through the skin, drinking enough blood.
He began to move, awkward at first, but then became more and more fierce. The red blade light covered the sky and he fought with Ah Ren.
Aren's arm was cut off by the red knife and fell to the ground.
He lost an arm, but remained expressionless and continued fighting with one arm.
A leg fell off.
The body that lost one hand and one foot struggled for a while, and finally fell to the ground with a thud. The stump of the body on the ground had a pair of dull eyes open, and was still crawling forward.
The red blade returns and finally cuts off the head.
The sentinel who had died many years ago blinked his eyes, and this time he was finally able to slowly close his eyes.
Long ago, he came to this dark city and met a human girl hiding here. The girl was timid, pitiful, and starved to the point of being just a handful of bones.
Ah Ren felt sorry for her, took out his canned food for her to eat, and promised to take her back with him.
Later, he was killed by the girl and was exploited so thoroughly that he could not rest in peace even after death and remained like a walking corpse in this dark world for a long time.
At this moment, he finally fell into a complete and eternal sleep.
"Too much! Sister, you actually broke Aren!" Fujilu was very angry and pouted her lips, "Aren is very good to me. He is my favorite sentinel! I begged him for a long time to keep his eyes."
"Sister, you are going too far. I just invited you to stay, I didn't even hurt you. Why did you do this?"
Fujilu stamped her foot.
Figures appeared silently around the room.
Each of those people had a blank expression and a dull look, and they moved as silently as ghosts.
They are all sentinels.
Like Ren, a dead sentinel.
They had no eyes, only two black holes in their eye sockets. One after another, the eyeless sentinels, like ghosts crawling out of a graveyard of souls, emerged from the darkness with pale faces.
Densely packed puppet sentinels stood beside Teng Lu.
Lin Yuan took a few steps back and controlled Ni Ji to get behind him.
"How did you do that?" she asked Fujilu.
The girl in front of him was obviously not a guide, but just an ordinary person. Lin Yuan had not noticed any strong spiritual power from her until now. But she could control the sentinels and even manipulate so many puppets at the same time.
She used some kind of power to destroy the spiritual world of these sentinels and control their bodies, forcing the unconscious sentinels to fight for her.
"I'm just an ordinary person, of course I can't do such a miracle." Teng Lu lowered her head and lifted the hem of her skirt slightly to show Lin Yuan, "It was the gods, the great Him who gave me the power."
The layers of lace skirt were lifted up, revealing no human legs underneath, only a single tentacle curled up on the ground.
The tentacle was very similar to Lin Yuan's spiritual body, but it was gray in color, and its skin was loose and wrinkled, like an extremely old, archaic, decaying, and aging life.
Many years ago, Fujilu, who was much younger than she is now, ventured into the Land of No Pupils with a neighbor.
My family is very poor and we are starving.
"It's okay. As long as you don't go too deep into the bottom floor, there's no danger there." The neighbor's brother said, "Although there's nothing valuable on the upper floor, you can try your luck. If you're lucky, you can have enough food for several days."
"It's okay, I will protect you."
But she had bad luck and no one really protected her.
She was weak and powerless, so she missed her step on the slippery pipe and fell all the way down. She landed on the roof of the lower floor, but she didn't die, and was chased by the monster all the way.
Who come save me, Fujilu cried as she ran, why am I so weak and pitiful
Is there no god in this world who can save me
When she was about to die, she heard a voice.
{Come}
{come here}
Following the guidance of the voice, she stumbled all the way and walked deeper underground.
Deep in the darkness, a small severed tentacle lay before her.
{Eat that}
{You can use my power}
{Bring me more Sentinels}
{I am too old and I have lost my eyesight.}
{I want more offerings}
In order to survive, Fujilu shed tears, suppressed her nausea, and swallowed the terrifying tentacle.
She was given the power of the gods.
The legs stuck together and grew into a tentacle that could connect to the giant in the underworld and borrow his power.
From then on, she acted like a ghost, using the body of an ordinary human, pretending to be weak and pitiful, and diligently seduced the sentry.
Take them one by one to the deep underground and sacrifice them to the god.
"I can't do anything about it." Fujilu sighed, "I'm just an ordinary person. I don't have any power at all. I can't resist. I'm sorry to those sentinels."
"Come with me, Sister Lin Yuan. You are a guide, and the gods love you very much. They said they will never hurt you."
The girl smiled shyly, "I like you too, please stay and keep me company. I'm not mad at you anymore."
In her innocent smile.
The densely packed sentries behind him slowly pressed forward.
Lin Yuan was silent for a moment, then answered her, "I can go with you, but leave him here."
She looked calm, cool and resolute as she pointed at Ni Ji who was standing beside her.
Lin Yuan found that he was sometimes an extremely rational person.
When she realized that there was absolutely no chance of winning, she immediately analyzed the best solution to the current situation.
She could follow these people, but at least she should protect her sentinels.
Otherwise, even if Ni Ji was involved, it would be impossible for her to defeat so many sentinels with her own strength.
Besides, she was going to that place anyway.
"But..." Fujilu hesitated.
{Can}
{I promise}
{Leave a Sentinel}
{only you}
{quick}
In Ni Ji's mental picture, the waves began to roll rapidly. The sea water seemed to know something and tightly entangled Lin Yuan who was swimming in the sea.
Lin Yuan's spirit body's skirt fluttered lightly, and her tentacles swayed behind her. She floated all the way in the sea, emerged from the water, and left the warm sea.
The sky above the sea was covered with dark clouds and thunder was rumbling.
The sea was surging, and blue waves surged onto the beach one after another. They came up again and again with milky white foam, hooking and wrapping up the tentacles of Lin Yuan hovering on the beach.
Lin Yuan walked away without even looking back.
Wave after wave of waves surged up, unwillingly chasing Lin Yuan's footsteps.
Occasionally one or two of the tentacles turned around, gently rolled them up, and said goodbye to them.
The figure eventually disappeared on the golden coast.
After a long time, Ni Ji opened his eyes in the darkness.
I found myself still lying in that room.
His body was unharmed and lay intact on the ground, the magic sword had returned to its original form and was tucked silently at his waist.
It was very quiet all around, without any sound, even the howling of the wind had stopped.
There is no weird girl living in the dungeon, no sentinel who lost his eye, and no Linyuan.
He lost his guide.
Although he lost control of his body at that time, Ni Ji knew clearly what happened.
At that time he couldn't move and could only watch everything.
I looked at Lin Yuan pointing at me and said, "Leave him here, I'll go with you."
Ni Ji sat up, crossed his legs in the dark, and drew his knife.
He took out a handkerchief from his backpack and wiped the blade carefully.
“Oh shit, are we going to have a big fight now?” The crack in the handle of the knife moved open and closed like human skin. “Looks like I can drink to my heart’s content this time.”
"Don't blame me for not telling you," the pointed and strange handle reminded him, "I was there just now. That thing here is very strong. You can't beat it."
In the past, Ni Ji found it annoying. At this moment, he was suddenly a little glad that the knife could speak.
At least at times like this, there was still a voice ringing beside him, which prevented the air from being too silent, so silent that it suffocated him.
"It is stronger than any you have ever seen. Ancient and terrifying. Not only can you not defeat it, no human can be its opponent."
"Leave it quickly while it is incapable of moving and you can save your life."
"It wants to get the guide, so it won't kill her. The young Kraken might be able to survive well here."
"Hey, didn't you hear me? Don't go. You'll die."
"Hello… "
Ni Ji held the blood-red long knife and killed his way through the dark dungeon.
He had lost his guide. He had to find her, at all costs.
This is an ancient city that was destroyed at the peak of human technology. After becoming a polluted area, time was forever trapped in this distorted space.
Deep here, you can find many useful high-tech materials, especially medicines.
Ni Ji didn't walk too fast. His steps were steady, more calculated and calm than ever before.
There was no room for trial and error here. He had to keep himself alive, walk deep underground, and find his guide.
Going down layer by layer, searching all the way, I found many special medicines and therapeutic devices from that era. It was really a good era. At least the medicines of that era were very effective. They could heal the bloody wounds quickly and let the exhausted body stand up again.
Fight, get hurt, treat your wounds, and recover.
Fight again, get hurt again, inject yourself with drugs again...
The sentry held the bloody red knife and walked down level by level with infinite patience. He believed that he would reach the end, and he would not fall down before finding Lin Yuan and bringing her back.
This is what he promised Lin Yuan.
"You're crazy. Stop injecting yourself. Your blood is starting to taste like medicine."
"Can you eat that stuff like this? It's a stimulant, not candy."
"Hey, hey, don't you get tired? It's been so many days, I'm tired of it."
"Hic~ Ah, that's rare. The feeling of drinking blood until you're full."
After fighting for who knows how many days, the tireless warriors finally reached underground.
His body and face were covered in blood, and his vision was obscured by the sticky blood stains. In the flickering light, his vision was all scarlet.
"Ah, it's you? That, the sentinel brother." Fujilu, who was wearing a white skirt, discovered him and hurriedly twisted her only tentacle and ran inside.
While running, he called Lin Yuan's name, "Sister Lin Yuan, Sister Lin Yuan."
It was she, the person who took away his guide. Ni Ji gritted his teeth, clenched the blood knife in his hand, exerted force on his feet, and ran in that direction.
In the depths of darkness, Ni Ji sensed a familiar breath.
His heart moved, and he suddenly stopped and looked up.
It was dark and silent there, with countless black shadows circling vaguely.
A group of tentacles suddenly emerged from the darkness.
They were not the childish, pink, slender and lively little tentacles that usually wrapped around Lin Yuan.
The tentacles that emerged from the darkness were thick and powerful, with dark red skin. They were intertwined and turbulent, and there was a wet sound when they walked.
A pair of golden pupils appeared deep in the gap between the tentacles.
Cold, indifferent, weird, without a trace of human emotion.
"Lin Yuan?" the sentry asked tentatively, holding the knife and taking two steps back.
"Hmm?" A familiar voice sounded in the darkness, "How do you know my name?"
