When he saw this large group of butterflies flying out of the castle, Ning Zhou realized that he was careless. His attention was focused on preventing the devil from sneaking into the castle, but he didn't expect that it had been in ambush inside for a long time, and it was hidden like this It was so deep that he didn't feel the devil's power at all when he patrolled the castle before.
Yuying returned to the pet luggage, Ning Zhou walked down the top floor quickly, his footsteps made a crisp dab on the quiet revolving stone staircase, he went to the room first, Qi Leren was no longer there, the quilt was neatly folded Qi, he should have left after waking up.
There was no one in the restaurant, no one in the lounge, not only from Qi Le, but also Dr. Lu and Su He, and the castle was eerily quiet. Ning Zhou searched all the way down, and finally came to the library...
Pushing open the door, the person he was looking for sat quietly at the table, happily talking to Su He, the latter seemed to have said something funny, he laughed out loud, it was the one who was with him The different Qi Le people in front of him were not nervous, worried, uneasy, hesitant to say anything, but simply happy, and he had hardly seen such a relaxed and happy expression on his face.
He has seen many, many smiles from Qi Le people, gentle, happy, bitter... But in front of him, no matter how bright his smile is, there is always a hint of caution. why? Why has he never laughed like that in front of him
"Ning Zhou!" Qi Leren suddenly stood up from the chair, took two steps forward, and stopped again. The familiar cautiousness appeared on his face again, and he seemed to have a stomach full of problems. I wanted to ask, but in the end I swallowed it abruptly, showing only the most ordinary concern, "I didn't see you everywhere just now, are you alright?"
Ning Zhou shook his head. Although he did not have the Shutman Chan skill card because it was a team action, he was still used to being silent. His eyes crossed Qi Leren's shoulders. He saw the traces of chairs dragging on the floor. There was no drag mark there when I was in the room, and the books on the table were also messed up. What happened just now
Behind the long table not far away, Su He met his gaze and smiled at him. It should have been a friendly smile, but Ning Zhou couldn't instinctively like him. It wasn't that he had any opinion on Su He. Su He was a very easy-going person, gentle, kind, knowledgeable, and very talkative. They are two completely opposite individuals, and it is best to stay together and live in peace.
"Leren, don't go there yet." Su He called Qi Leren back.
Only then did Qi Leren remember the two consecutive dangers just now, and he couldn't help but suddenly, a moment of doubt made him look straight into Ning Zhou's eyes.
The dim candlelight was reflected in his eyes, the beating flame was like a burning ice fire, but it was precipitated in the inorganic blue, all the extreme emotions were rationally covered by ice and snow, only extreme restraint remained, as if Even the self is destroyed.
There is no mistake, that is Ning Zhou's eyes.
"It should be Ning Zhou." Qi Leren's character made him never come to a conclusion with certainty, he just said tactfully, "Besides, didn't the monster just run away?"
"That's not necessarily, maybe it's still lurking nearby?" Su He said lightly.
Even when he suspected Ning Zhou, Su He's tone was calm, without personal emotions or prejudice, just stating a possible fact.
"But Mr. Ning Zhou is a member of the Holy See, so it's easy to identify. Demons can't use the Holy See's magic." Su He said.
"...Ning Zhou is not very good at it either." Qi Leren said with little confidence.
Ning Zhou didn't speak, the short knife fixed on the outside of his thigh with a leather strap was unsheathed, and a holy aura burst out, dispelling the doubts of the three. Qi Leren breathed a sigh of relief and doubted a person, no matter how reasonable the reason was, it would always make people feel guilty when the misunderstanding was eliminated, and Qi Leren was no exception, but he was too embarrassed to say anything, so he had to turn the hand in his hand. books.
Dr. Lu held his forehead and sipped tea vigorously, so that he could use wifi skills to reduce his sense of existence.
"It will be zero o'clock in the near future. Let's confirm our actions later. Don't worry, the monster will not hear our conversation now." Su He opened the gorgeous and exquisite pocket watch and confirmed the time.
The serious matter of negotiating actions attracted the attention of several people, and they listened intently to Su He's words: "After 0:00, I will use my domain to partially interfere with reality to ensure that we will not be noticed by people or anything else. But you can't be too far away from me, more than five meters will probably lose the concealment effect."
"A lot of clues should be found tonight, and there may be battles. I don't think the deformed demon will give up easily." Su He said.
Ning Zhou didn't know what happened just now. Qi Leren whispered what happened just now: "...It wants your mother's token brooch, maybe it wants to take this brooch to escape from the realm?"
After hesitating for a while, Qi Leren still took out the token brooch: "Otherwise, you should keep it, after all, this is your mother's thing..."
"It's too late to hand it over to Mr. Ning Zhou... In fact, if you know its purpose, it's easy to guess the means it can use, and it's no longer feasible to use the deformed method to deceive the token, and you may hand the token to Others will take care of it, so to make sure you get the domain token, the best way is to force us to hand it over." Su He folded his hands on the table and said slowly.
"Force?" Dr. Lu murmured, and asked consciously, "Don't you want to take me as a hostage?"
"This is a possibility. Let's adapt accordingly." Su He said with a smile.
"..." This is too casual, Qi Le and Dr. Lu looked at Su He speechlessly, do you want to paddle like this
Su He said calmly: "Don't worry, we are only facing an opponent who hides its head and shows its tail and dares not confront it head-on. It is deliberate and careful, but it is only because it is weak, so be confident. This time we are the hunters."
Su He's words made Qi Leren suddenly enlightened. Yes, he used to treat the enemy from the perspective of the weak, and every time he was worried for fear of any accident, but this time was different, he brought his teammates! In front of the god teammates with their own plug-ins, an opponent who is not at the domain level is destined to be crushed.
Su He Wenwen said, "But I still have to prepare a little... Well, I have an idea to try."
…
…
…
Although in "Nightmare Game", Qi Leren died quickly on the night of the new moon, but this time he was full of confidence.
Time passed by, and the pocket watch on the table moved by Su He with a crisp mechanical sound. Finally, the hour hand and the minute hand overlapped on the Roman numeral XII. He picked up the pocket watch and showed a calm smile to the three of them. :"lets go."
The world after 0:00 seems to be no different from before. The four of them walked from the lord castle to the bustling area of the holy city. It was pitch black and silent, with no moonlight, no lights, and no night vision. Qi Leren was blinded: "Can't you turn on the lights?"
In the darkness, Yu Ying, who was hiding in the pet's luggage, flew out, let out a mocking hum, flapped its wings and flew into the night, exploring the way ahead.
Dr. Lu was even worse than Qi Le's. He pulled Qi Le's clothes for fear of another tragic fall to the ground under his feet.
"I'm afraid not. If the light is on, people in the distance will have a very strange effect when they see it... Probably there is a black hole with a radius of five meters in the light." Su He said.
Imagining the picture is really intoxicating, what is the difference between being invisible or not? Honestly, keep walking in the dark.
In the darkness, Qi Leren's eyes gradually got used to it, and he could vaguely see the silhouette of his companion under the starlight. Unfortunately, he was watching people, but he didn't pay attention to his feet. He kicked a protruding stone with one foot, and immediately focused He stumbled forward unsteadily, thinking that he was going to fall into the ground, but he was picked up by someone.
"...Thank you." Qi Leren, who was pulled up by his arm, thanked him glumly.
Ning Zhou released his hand silently.
"If you're worried about tripping, you can pull me." Su He's smiling voice sounded in the dark.
Qi Leren hesitated for a while, but before he said a word, Dr. Lu next to him had already shouted happily: "Okay, okay! I stumbled twice just now, it's too dark to see!" He happily grabbed Su He's arm.
A warm hand was held on Qi Leren's wrist, he turned his head, only the outline of Ning Zhou could be seen in the darkness, he stared straight ahead, as if the person pulling him had nothing to do with him.
"Watch your feet," he said.
"Oh... um." Qi Leren responded twice. The temperature on the wrist seeped from the skin into the blood, and was transmitted to every corner with the beating heart. It was the body temperature of another person, from a very different individual. They have different growth experiences, different personalities and hobbies, different religious beliefs, they are not even people in the world of one person, but they meet and even fall in love with each other...
Qi Leren squeezed his sweaty palm tightly, feeling the temperature on his wrist quietly, he didn't speak, and he didn't dare to move.
Why
The person holding him is no longer the dream lover whose gender he has misunderstood, but his heart is still beating for him.
It shouldn't be like this, he thought with joy and despair. It shouldn't be like this.
