"Da, da, da."
In an environment shrouded in gray fog, the familiar sound of high heels gradually sounded.
Lin Shiwei looked very unhappy. She rubbed her neck with one hand and reached to her side with the other. Only after she grabbed Du Yu's arm did she feel a little relieved.
She looked ahead warily and whispered, "Have we entered a different world underground, or have we climbed up another level of the tower?"
Du Yu held up the Ghost Firefly Torch in one hand, lighting the way ahead, his eyes fixed on the woman whose figure gradually emerged from the gray fog: "Since the enemies have disappeared, we should have reached another level."
Shadow Gu Tower, the seventh floor!
Du Yu’s idea was very simple. If this was an underground alien world, then there must be a large number of Tianbao creatures around.
But the reality is that there are no enemies around.
Not only did the monsters of the Tianbao tribe that were invaded by the cold air not become violent, but even the red mist woman in Du Yu's arms disappeared without a trace.
This is a very obvious transition. The two have entered Tower 7 and successfully reached the top!
"Click, click, click." The sound of high heels finally stopped, and the woman holding an umbrella also walked in front of the two men.
The two of them were a little nervous, and the people in front of the monitors were concentrating and holding their breath.
The black umbrella slowly lifted up, revealing the woman's face pieced together with the outline of black fog.
In the gray fog, she slowly raised her hand. On the palm of her hand, which was covered with black leather gloves, was a small shadow Gu tower.
Du Yu nodded secretly in his heart, so... I have passed the level, and the Shadow Gu Tower will give out rewards.
The story it tells is obviously a brutal history of killing.
The Shadow Gu Tower vividly displayed the cruel methods and evil deeds of the Red Mist Woman. Having lost its original owner, it committed evil and slaughtered people under the control of the Red Mist Woman.
But as a spiritual weapon, it had no way to resist and could only help the tyrants, carrying an endless blood debt. Especially the story of the massacre of the village, perhaps the red-robed man really didn't even let go of the civilian children... ...
The Shadow Gu Tower has finished telling this story. Its helplessness and suffering have all been integrated into the story.
However, in the real historical event, the woman in red mist must have succeeded in absorbing the souls of all the people in black robes.
In the real story, there was no Du Yu who carried her into the lair of the Tianbao tribe and died together with her.
The death of the Red Mist Woman is just the Shadow Gu Tower’s good wish.
Just like the last time he entered the tower, Ying Gu Tower desperately hoped that someone could stop the master from falling and hold the master's hand tightly at the last moment...
But for Du Yu, there are too many secrets hidden in this story wrapped in a shell of killing.
Regarding the twin trees, the bottomless pit, and the entrance to the underground different world, Du Yu learned one secret piece of information about this world after another!
"Du Yu." Lin Shiwei squeezed Du Yu's arm, and he immediately came back to his senses.
In front of him, the woman in black mist stretched out her hand again, and in front of Du Yu's face, she signaled Du Yu to take the small Shadow Gu Tower.
What puzzled everyone was that Du Yu did not extend his hand, but said, "I want to talk to you for a few words. Can you give me some time?"
If nothing unexpected happens, once Du Yu takes the small Shadow Gu Tower, he will be teleported out of this image world and back to the seventh floor of the Shadow Gu Tower in the real world, so he did not reach out to take it.
The woman in black mist faced Du Yu, as if looking directly into his eyes. She had no expression on her face and did not move at all.
Du Yu organized his words and said, "I know you are telling stories, telling your experiences, and sharing your pain.
We are also willing to listen to your story. It has been nearly 200 days since you appeared. Countless demon tamers have come one after another, just to learn about your past. "
The woman in black mist slowly put down her hand and silently stared at the young man in front of her.
Du Yu said in a deep voice: "I don't know how many stories you have left to tell. Maybe people will never be able to finish listening to them in their lifetime. But judging from the test you set, the Great Demon Tamer level is the last story you have to tell.
Since this level is so difficult, no one has ever succeeded, and people don’t even see a glimmer of hope... Maybe for you, this is your most important story. "
As he spoke, Du Yu slowly stretched out his hand and reached for the shoulder of the woman in black mist.
The woman's head turned slightly following Du Yu's palm, and she watched the hand gently press on her shoulder.
Du Yu said solemnly: "The next person to enter the tower is my master. She is a kind-hearted and warm person, just like you."
In front of the monitor, Yang Qingqing's eyes widened slightly.
She wasn't sure whether this was Du Yu's feeling after spending time with her, or because of Chen Linglu's guarantee.
Or is it both
Yang Qingqing couldn't see Du Yu, and could only see the woman in the black mist standing quietly through Du Yu's first-person perspective.
In the sight, the woman still tilted her head, looking at the hand on her shoulder.
Du Yu's voice sounded again: "Trust me, you can entrust your most important story to her."
Hearing this, Yang Qingqing bit her lower lip lightly with a complicated expression. She was silent for three or four seconds. She shook her head and laughed.
Yang Qingqing held her forehead with one hand, her heart full of emotion. She had never thought that Du Yu would actually "plead" for her.
This young apprentice has made unexpected moves time and time again, and the excellence he has demonstrated is not limited to his talent and potential, but also lies in his heart.
Even though he was young and weak, he still tried to take care of her in his own way.
If it were someone else, how could a demon tamer like you take care of the Great Demon Tamer? You are simply overestimating your own abilities!
But for Du Yu, at this place and at this moment, he is indeed the only one who can communicate with Ying Gu Tower.
In the picture, the woman in black mist finally moved.
She slowly turned her head, with only her eyes silently looking at Du Yu. She also raised her hand and handed out the small Shadow Gu Tower.
But he didn't hand it to Du Yu, but to Lin Shiwei who was standing beside him.
"This..." Lin Shiwei hesitated and turned to look at Du Yu, not knowing whether she should answer it.
The woman in black mist directly pressed the small shadow Gu Tower in front of Lin Shiwei and forcefully stuffed it into her arms.
Then, the woman in black mist withdrew her hand, tapped her own chest with one hand, and then tapped the left side of Du Yu's chest.
Du Yu's heart was slightly moved: "What do you mean?"
In fact, Du Yu vaguely guessed what Shadow Gu Tower meant.
He just wasn't sure, and didn't dare to have such a big dream.
Not only Du Yu guessed it, everyone understood the meaning of Shadow Gu Tower's actions, but no one dared to make a rash judgment.
Ancient spiritual weapon: Shadow Gu Tower... Is he planning to go with Du Yu
Has it finally made up its mind and is ready to open its heart and tell the last story
No one knows what changes will happen to the Shadow Gu Tower after the story is finished.
But the action of the Shadow Gu Tower at this moment is telling everyone what it will do.
Du Yu finally understood the tower after climbing it!
Now it seems that Yang Qingqing's personal strength is no longer important. As long as you are Du Yu's master, he has already made clear arrangements for you...
The woman in the black fog slowly put away her umbrella, and then the monitor screen suddenly changed. It was no longer foggy, but a blue sky with white clouds, and the picture was clear and bright.
"Someone's showing up! Someone's showing up at the top of the tower!"
"That's amazing, it actually worked? Looks like we still have to form a team to enter the tower?"
"Ah... come on, what rank are they? They're so young, could they be demon tamers?"
"Shut up! What are you talking about? Don't embarrass me!"
Amidst the buzz of discussion, cheers and applause broke out. Two figures suddenly appeared on the seventh floor of the Shadow Gu Tower.
Perhaps it was because the young couple had stayed in the dim environment for too long, they squinted their eyes and covered their eyes with one hand to adapt to the bright natural light.
“Poof~”
In Lin Shiwei's hand, the small Shadow Gu Tower shattered quietly, and a trace of spiritual energy flowed into her body.
Lin Shiwei's body stiffened and she fell down uncontrollably.
"Hold on." Du Yu hugged Lin Shiwei with one hand, "Drive out the evil spirit in your body, don't let it extinguish your spiritual energy!"
With the experience of the first time, Du Yu immediately gave instructions to his teammates.
In the Demon Tamer stage, people's control over the demon's aura is not strong enough. In the Demon Tamer stage, the situation will be much better.
But even so, the spiritual energy in Lin Shiwei's body is extremely precious and there must not be any mistakes!
"Okay...Okay." Lin Shiwei responded stutteringly.
She closed her eyes tightly, snuggled in Du Yu's arms, looked inward at the world of meridians in her body, and tried hard to drive away all the "hospitable" evil spirits.
The problem is that the demonic energy in Lin Shiwei's body is far more complicated than Du Yu's.
She is a demon tamer with all attributes. Even though she specializes in the wood and fire elements, the other demon auras still exist in her body to a greater or lesser extent!
The girl's face was very stiff, and it was obvious that the situation was not good.
Suddenly, Xiao Fenyang's voice came into Du Yu's mind: "Do you want me to help Sister Xiao Wei?"
Du Yu communicated in his mind: "Can you?"
"Huh~ I'm so awesome!"
Du Yu was delighted: "Yes, yes, Xiao Fen Yang is the best, please help her."
Xiao Fenyang: "Okay~ I like Sister Xiao Wei too, she always protects us."
Recalling his experience in the Mountain Fire Knife Training Camp, Du Yu agreed with it.
The sound of Xiao Fen Yang's beeping and cooing could be heard again: "Even though she is so weak, she still wants to protect us. Sister Xiao Wei is a good person~"
Du Yu: “…”
So... Lin is so weak
Let Xiao Fenyang evaluate Li Mengnan in the future, and then the titles of the three great generals of Yan’s organization will be complete!
Du Yu was thinking about all sorts of things in his mind, and he didn't want to stand on a high place and be watched by everyone. He gently touched Xiao Youying with his forehead, put it into the Yintang acupoint, and then took Lin Shiwei in one hand and turned to walk down the tower.
Last time, he fell headfirst from Tower 7 and was not fortunate enough to visit the scenery inside the Shadow Gu Tower. This was a good opportunity for him to take a good look at it.
Lin Shiwei's body suddenly trembled, and he felt a fire aura entering his body.
And it’s not the breath of the fire demon, but the fire spiritual energy!
"Focus." Du Yu said at the right time, stopping Lin Shiwei from asking questions, "Find the acupuncture point home for the spiritual energy as quickly as possible."
When he arrived at the wooden staircase leading to the sixth floor, he was slightly stunned. Because there was a woman in black mist standing at the entrance of the staircase on the sixth floor
Illusion reflected in reality
At this moment, Du Yu suddenly didn't know where he was.
Did I return to the real world and successfully reach the top, or was I still in the illusion
At the stairs below, the Black Mist Woman had already folded her umbrella, and her outfit of black woolen coat and black bowler hat was totally out of place with the ancient décor of the Shadow Gu Tower.
Rather than saying that she is the incarnation of the Shadow Gu Tower, it would be more accurate to say that she is more like a tourist visiting the ancient building.
In front of the monitor, Captain Liu looked solemn and pressed the communication button with one hand: "Don't act rashly, see what she is going to do."
Before, there were demon tamers who had successfully climbed the tower and returned along the same route, but those people did not encounter the image in the illusion.
However, since Du Yu is on good terms with Ying Gu Tower, then this woman in black mist shouldn't cause trouble
“Squeak~squeak…”
The wooden staircase looked very dilapidated, and as Du Yu walked down step by step, the wooden steps made a slight sound.
Du Yu went down to the sixth floor of the tower, but the woman in black mist did not move at all. She just stood there quietly, without making a sound.
"Then I'll leave first?" Du Yu hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice.
The woman in black mist was like a dummy, still motionless.
Du Yu was puzzled. He waited for a moment, then helped Lin Shiwei around the stairs and came to the stairs leading to the lower floor.
The strange scene reappeared! At the entrance of the fifth floor stairs, another woman in black mist stood quietly.
Du Yu: “…”
Oh my goodness~Are you the receptionist
Are you saying goodbye to me here
It was so mysterious that it scared me...
It was not until Du Yu went down to the first floor that the woman in black mist who was guarding the stairs finally moved. She really sent Du Yu to the gate of the Shadow Gu Tower as if she was seeing off a guest.
The soldiers in front of the monitor were all dumbfounded.
This is a true friend, and he really plans to go with Du Yu!
Countless demon masters climbed the Shadow Gu Tower again and again, and most of them were thrown out of the window. The few who successfully reached the top either fell from the seventh tower or walked out of the tower alone.
I have never seen any demon tamer accept such hospitality from the Shadow Gu Tower!
"Thank you, goodbye." Du Yu stood in front of the door, turned his head and nodded to the woman in black mist.
The woman in black mist touched her heart with one hand, then stretched out her finger and gently touched Du Yu's Lingxu acupoint.
When this action appeared again, Du Yu also confirmed the will of Shadow Gu Tower again.
He grinned and said, “You know, after I successfully climbed the tower for the first time and harvested the spiritual energy you gave me, I was worried about your future.
After all, by the time you finish telling the story, you will have used up most of your energy. I also thought about what your ending would be like, whether you would lose everything and stand forever in this desolate mountain. Now it seems that I was worrying too much.
Don't worry, I'm outside, I'm waiting for you."
A smile finally appeared on the expressionless face of the woman in black fog.
Although there was no touching gesture, it was obvious that the spiritual weapon contract had been signed!
