Mistbound Chronicles: Lumian's Legacy Novel Chapter 148
Transparent worms covered with bright stars emerged from the palm of the lazy lady, and connected with the invisible and illusory gaps, making it dyed with the color of starlight.
As the lady pulled hard, the layer of transparent skin covering the surface of the world made an overwhelming and terrible sound, rolling up to both sides irresistibly.
With an indescribable cracking sound that was heartbreaking, the gap was forcibly torn open, turning into a huge hole that shone with stars.
This makes it look like the entrance to a tunnel leading into the unknown.
The next second, the figure of the lady in an orange dress flashed and disappeared over the wilderness.
The face of "Ms. Moon" who was sitting in the cradle carriage changed slightly, and she drove the devil-like creature pulling the carriage into the "tunnel".
Ms. Judgment followed closely behind.
In a world where the ground is covered with knotted tree roots and the white clouds look like oil paintings.
As the branches close to the virtual canopy "secreted" thick black liquid and grew various strange-shaped things, although Lumian was ordered by Termipolos and did not raise his head to look, something still happened. A feeling of insanity.
His skin was itching, and the flesh and blood underneath was squirming abnormally, as if dense pimples or tumors were about to grow.
At this moment, rays of pure starlight shone into the world, illuminating Lumian's eyes.
Not far from him, a small gap instantly expanded into an illusory and mysterious starlight gate.
"Close your eyes and rush through that door." The majestic and rich voice of Thermipolos sounded in Lumian's ears.
Without hesitation, Lumian grasped the "Fallen Mercury" with his left palm that was blown into the lake of flesh and blood, and ran towards the starlight door.
He closed his eyes tightly, relying on the hunter's grasp of the spatial position and accurate distance, and ran in front of the target in a few steps. Regardless of any changes there or whether there were dangerous creatures hidden there, he jumped in and jumped in.
After a brief moment of spinning, Lumian seemed to emerge from the bottom of a deep lake, and his whole body became relaxed.
He opened his eyes and saw the giant brown-green shadow tree not far away, the Golden Rooster Hotel and other buildings wrapped in branches and vines, the different areas of the streets separated by strange forces in the wilderness, and the people who were addicted to Vendors and pedestrians who had their own desires saw Franca jumping down from a window on the second floor of the Golden Rooster Hotel.
He escaped from the alien space inside the "Tree of Shadows", but he had not yet returned to the real world.
[In view of the general environment,
Franka also discovered Lumian who was not far away from her, and shouted happily and eagerly: "Quick, find the exit!"
Although she "summoned" Ms. "Judgement" and felt confident, she still didn't want to stay here for a long time.
How could a battle involving demigods be something she, a little Sequence 7, could participate in? Even just watching from a distance is extremely risky.
Lumian nodded, and while running towards Franka, he looked left and right, looking for something that seemed to be an exit.
The more he looked, the more he felt that this place was like the "other world" gifted by the "Great Mother", but there were not a large number of undead souls and devils who threw sinners into the abyss.
Could it be that followers of the "Great Mother" were involved in the actions of the "Blissful Society"? Lumian suddenly made a guess and shouted to Franka, who was already close to Chi Chi: "Go to the edge of the wilderness!"
Based on his experience, if this is really the "other world", it should be possible to escape from the edge of the wilderness.
Franka nodded lightly and ran along without asking.
Suddenly, the wilderness shook violently, and a dull roar sounded from inside the giant brown-green tree.
The sky then became dark, and the whole world seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
The branches and vines that wrapped around the buildings and streets in the neighborhood were quickly retracted, and the vendors, pedestrians and tenants affected by different desires regained consciousness in a daze.
They stopped frantically devouring food, they let go of the opposite sex they were holding down, and stood up in fear. They ended the bloody slashing, and looked around the Golden Rooster Hotel in confusion with minor or serious injuries. Inside, the eloping couple who were cursing each other stopped exercising. They didn't feel there was anything wrong with what they were doing, but they were just confused about why the sky suddenly became darker, as if it was evening.
Anthony was hiding under the wooden table and shivering. Rhett first calmed down his trembling, then his expression darkened, he got out and looked out the window.
Gabriel, who was frantically signing his name, instantly regained his sanity and wondered if he was suffering from mental illness due to excessive stress while further polishing the script of "Light Chaser" based on the theater manager's opinions.
Pawar, the owner of the speakeasy. Nissen put down the brush, but was reluctant to take his eyes away from the drawing board. Although he had just made a quick draft, he felt that it was the most outstanding work of his life so far, far surpassing his previous highest works. level, he subconsciously wanted to return to that state, but he couldn't do it no matter what.
In an instant, all the branches and vines retracted into the "Tree of Shadows", and most of the vendors, pedestrians and tenants who regained consciousness saw the extremely terrifying brown-green giant tree.
They didn't know what was happening, but followed their instinctive fear. Quickly flee away from the "Tree of Shadows".
At this time, Susanna was wrapped in long green hair. Matisse stands out on the similarly blurred tree canopy, Charlotte. Calvino stood on the lower branch with a look of loss, frustration and hatred.
After the "sacrifice" escaped from the ceremony site, their sacrifice temporarily failed, so they quickly escaped from the alien space to avoid being affected by the battle at the demigod level.
Susanna suffered backlash and divine influence. Matisse's figure became extremely desolate, as if he would disappear completely at any time.
Her eyes reflected Lumian and Franka running towards the edge of the wilderness, but she was unable to exert any influence on them.
Under normal circumstances, combined with the "Tree of Shadows", she could use her abilities at such a long distance, but the backlash caused by the interruption of the ceremony and the uncontrolled pollution after the "Son of God" came to power made her just He almost died on the spot and was now extremely weak.
Susanna is already an evil spirit and is extreme, extreme and persistent in nature. Matisse was unwilling to give up just like that, and wanted to capture Lumian and drag him into the "Tree of Shadows" again to continue the unfinished ritual.
She caused the branches and vines of the "Tree of Shadows" to spread quickly. They caught up with a vendor, hung him up, and pierced the spikes on the surface into his skin, absorbing the energy that could restore Susanna. Essence.
This is equivalent to using the "Tree of Shadows" to make the process of absorbing energy during dream intercourse and gradually leading to the death of the target simple and crude, and speeding up the progress!
Seeing those brown or green branches and vines rushing over like monsters, seeing their companions being hung up on the spot, struggling and screaming, the vendors, pedestrians and tenants trapped in this wilderness were horrified. Shouting, running wildly, terrified.
The eloping couple wrapped themselves in sheets and ran out of the Golden Rooster Hotel, following Anthony. Red ran towards the edge of the wilderness, followed by Gabriel and Pavard. Nissen is the tenant who has not gone to work elsewhere at this time, and in front of them are vendors and pedestrians running around.
One after another, the refugees were hoisted up by branches and vines in panic, and screamed for help.
The vendor who had given Lumian more sour wine tripped over a stone on the ground and saw in despair that green vines were climbing up his body, wrapping them up layer by layer.
After noticing such movement, he turned his head and stared for a few seconds before Lumian slowed down.
When Franka saw this, she immediately cursed: "You want to go back to save them?
"Fuck! Please recognize your identity. You are just a wanted criminal and a gang leader!"
Lumian did not continue to slow down, but he did not speed up either.
He and Franka were nearing the edge of the wilderness.
At this time, the magnificent sound of Thermipolos sounded in his ears.
Duplicate voices.
This time, the angel of fate did not speak one sentence at a time, but poured a large number of words into Lumian's ears at slight intervals: "Have you not recognized your destiny yet? "After enduring the power of fate, there will naturally be corresponding erosion.
"From the moment Kordu Village was destroyed, you have become an unfortunate one." Many things before were not influenced by me, but by your unfortunate fate.
"As an unfortunate person, not only will you become unfortunate yourself, but the people around you and those close to you will also become unfortunate." If it is not for your lack of occult knowledge, let Susanna. Matisse discovered what was wrong with your body and began to contact Hugues. Artois used the explosion of the chemical plant to arrange the sacrifice. Jenna's mother would not commit suicide, and Jenna's brother would not go crazy.
"If you are careful enough, when Flemish regains his sobriety and you drink, remember to find an opportunity to ask a real "psychiatrist", he may not necessarily choose to commit suicide. "If you not only warned Ruel, but restricted his movements, he would not be infected with the disease again and die soon, and Michelle would not lose the will to live.
"All these misfortunes are brought about by you." My existence is not only a trump card that gives you the power and intimidation of grace, but also a curse that you cannot escape.
"Only when you bow to fate and release me from the seal will your misfortune stop." If you continue like this, you will not be able to save what you want to save, and you will also be unable to protect what you want to protect. You will only give They increase misfortune.
"When the time comes, the people here calling for help will die." Gabriel will die.
"Charlie will die." Jenna will die.
"Franka will die as well."
Lumian stopped for a moment, his expression distorted, and he could no longer hide his pain.
Franka shouted again: "Wake up! When you are usually fine, occasionally going crazy and doing good deeds is no problem. Now it is better to escape and find the official Beyonders! Those demigod fighting ghosts know what will happen, Susanna Now it is equivalent to an enhanced sequence 5 with a bit of divinity, which is not something we can deal with!
"Those people didn't expect help from a villain who likes to bully them with pranks!"
Near the giant brown and green tree, many people were already hanging on the branches.
With a sweep of the floor, Gabriel was lifted directly by a few green vines, and the "Light Chaser" script was scattered all over the floor.
Pawar, the owner of the speakeasy. Nissen was next to him, with spikes inserted into his body.
Among the eloping couple, the woman ran slower, tripped over a branch, and got entangled in vines.
The young man wrapped in sheets was frightened and continued to move forward, but after a few steps, he suddenly stopped and cursed himself: "Shit!" Before his voice fell, the man turned around and ran towards his partner, gritting his teeth. The ground wants to tear at the vines and lift the person up.
Desperate cries and frightened screams echoed across the wilderness one after another.
Lumian's fists clenched unconsciously.
Suddenly, he laughed in a low voice: "Then you are considered someone close to me. After all, you are in my body. Will you also encounter misfortune?" I know that I will fail again and again, but I will also fail again and again. Do it and pursue that illusory and small hope!
"If I had chosen to give up, I would have been knocked down long ago!
"And now, there is still a possibility of success."
After saying this, Lumian took another step and continued running towards the edge of the wilderness.
Although Franka didn't understand what he was talking to himself just now, she was still happy to see that he had made a wise choice.
Two or three seconds later, the two of them arrived at the edge of the wilderness. Lumian, who deliberately lagged behind Franka, suddenly stretched out his hands and pushed his companion out.
Franca, who was caught off guard, was shocked to see her body gradually leaving the wilderness, and turned her head to look at Lumian.
Lumian smiled and said in a soft voice: "I was once as desperate and painful as them, hoping to get help, and that time, someone reached out to me."
After saying that, he suddenly turned around
He passed his body and ran towards the huge brown-green tree.
In the dim wilderness, red flames ignited on his body, and this time, the flame cloak was no longer isolated from the clothes, directly burning his skin and flesh.
He will use constant pain to fight against all the desires he will encounter next!
While running wildly, his eyes locked on Susanna, who was entangled with long turquoise hair, but what he "saw" was not only this "fallen tree spirit", but also the figure in his memory.
The one who gave him light.
