As night falls, stars appear across the sky.
The temperature on the earth dropped suddenly, and the ground was covered with beautiful flowers again.
A sentry dressed in black was running fast in the wilderness, passing through the sea of flowers, with countless flying petals splashing under his feet.
The huge figure of the killer whale floated in the air, following behind him. Lin Yuan rode on the whale's back, flying under the boundless starry sky.
She couldn't help but look at the sentinel running ahead.
Look at the flower petals crushed under his feet, look at his bent back when he runs, look at his soft and strong waistline.
Fairy tales often say that fairies are divided into good fairies and bad fairies.
People often classify guides into good guides and bad guides.
The good kind are naturally gentle, considerate and kind, while the bad kind have many bad qualities, such as those who like to bully beautiful princesses and those who like to abuse, torture and play with others.
Lin Yuan thought about it and felt that he might be a "bad guide" in essence.
The moment Ni Ji handcuffed his hands on his own initiative, something that had been suppressed in his heart could no longer be held back.
I wanted to be gentle to him, but I couldn't help wanting to bully him.
Not only satisfied with the touch, but also want to leave their own traces in every corner.
Ni Ji was a very good person at restraining himself. But the more he restrained himself, the more he wanted to make him lose control. The more he kept silent, the more he wanted to hear the one or two uncontrollable guttural sounds in his throat.
As a result, he learned everything without a teacher, and gradually became reckless and reckless.
The sentry ran in front of the killer whale, very close to her, and never looked back at her.
Lin Yuan could even see the obvious marks on his wrist.
There is a strong explosive power hidden in his body, and he runs beautifully across the sea of flowers.
He was a very beautiful man, beautiful in battle, beautiful in running, and beautiful yesterday in that dark cave.
Yesterday was their first time, and I really shouldn't have done that.
Maybe my true nature is that of a ferocious beast. I have sharp teeth and tentacles that like to tie people up. I have a heart that lurks in the dark and likes to control everything.
I bit his skin, licked the overflowing blood with the tip of my tongue, and stared at him to watch his every reaction.
He was completely ignited and trembling uncontrollably.
By the end, his voice became terribly hoarse, and with a disoriented look in his eyes he repeated words that he would never normally say.
At that time I knew I should stop, but just like I couldn't control the tentacles in the past, I couldn't control myself at all.
The sound of the tentacles crawling in the water mixed with his broken breathing, making everything out of control.
It’s all because of this damn joint heat.
Fortunately, she was a guide and was able to know his true thoughts every minute.
I know that his request is not his real desire. I know that he is the same as me, from inside to outside, there is no part of him that is not immersed in happiness.
In short, it was all because of the sudden onset of the fever that caused them to have such a ridiculous time.
At this moment, my body and mind were both refreshed. Even the strange starry sky and sea of flowers in the polluted area became beautiful sights to behold.
Lin Yuan felt that she had undergone some kind of change. The first taste of samadhi and the fusion of both made her spiritual body become a truly mature body.
The Kraken, which had been hidden in chaos and whose entire appearance had never been seen, finally slowly emerged from the vast void with all its tentacles along with the rising and falling tides.
It becomes clear in shape, full in tentacles, stable and mature.
The bond between Sentinels and Guides has always been said to be mysterious among Sentinels, and it is said to be very helpful to Sentinels. Lin Yuan thinks that it may be even more mysterious for Sentinels.
But from her own perspective, this is a mutually beneficial and happy thing.
What she got was not only physical happiness, but also spiritual satisfaction and full mental energy.
This made her feel more peaceful and calm when she looked up to face the road ahead.
This time they started from the middle of the road and moved forward very quickly. When it was still completely dark, they could already see the colorful stones on the roof in the distance.
But in the boundless sea of flowers, in front of the roof that symbolizes temporary safety, there is a gorgeous and huge pirate ship.
The City of Ghouls is a strange and beautiful pollution zone like an amusement park. Amidst the vast sea of flowers stand a number of large-scale amusement facilities. After repeated burns in the sea of fire, they are still bright and colorful.
The huge pirate ship was brightly colored, with brilliant colored lights on. The hull was bathed in starlight, swaying gently back and forth, making a creaking sound as it moved.
But at the top of that very tall support, a shell was hanging upside down in mid-air.
It was very similar to the one hanging on the Ferris wheel before, and looked like a complete piece of skin sloughed off from some giant creature.
But this one looks more like a human, with a pair of human legs.
The dry, translucent, intact bark hangs high in the air, swaying.
From a distance, it looked like a giant human figure hanging upside down. After the high temperature and fierce fire during the day, it was still hanging there strangely.
I wonder if there is still a huge and entangled mutant sleeping in the land underground.
Ni Ji and Lin Yuan were the same as before, neither hearing any movement nor exploring any emotional fluctuations.
The flowers there were in full bloom, and the beautiful pirate ship was swaying.
I just don’t know what kind of deadly danger is buried beneath that sea of flowers.
Ni Ji and Lin Yuan stopped far away, looked into the distance for a moment, and opened the map in their hands.
If they wanted to follow the previously planned route, the location of the pirate ship was almost a must-pass place.
If you want to avoid unnecessary dangerous battles, you need to change to another hiding spot.
There is plenty of time. But if that's the case, I will never be able to catch up with Nicole and the others.
From a distance, there was no sign of fighting in that area. This meant that Nicole and her friends had most likely bypassed this place, but I didn't know which route they chose.
Ni Ji and Lin Yuan exchanged glances.
This was the first time their eyes met since they left the underground cave. Their eyes touched lightly and then separated in mid-air.
It was like an electric current passing through my body, making my skin numb. Ni Ji quickly looked away and pointed at a point on the map.
"If it were me, I would take this route instead. They have veterans like Rachel in their team, and I feel there is a high chance that they will take this route."
"Now we can only guess."
Lin Yuan accepted his suggestion.
The two of them chose the longer route, bypassing the hiding point that was right in front of them and running towards a farther place.
After being baptized by the raging fire during the day, the earth began to grow grass, trees and flowers again.
Even if Nicole and her group left any traces last night, it is impossible to tell now.
We changed the route we had agreed upon in advance. In such a vast land, we can only pray for luck to let us meet again.
Ni Ji has been running in front of Lin Yuan.
He suddenly stopped in a low-lying area, squatted down, put his hand into the flower stalks, and felt the ground.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yuan came back on the killer whale.
"It's Du Yuanyuan." Ni Ji thought for a moment, "They fought here."
Du Yuanyuan has a very simple and crude skill that can increase the weight of her spiritual body - the weight of the panda - by dozens of times.
A giant super-dense panda suddenly appears from the void. It falls from the sky, destroying everything with its weight, instantly suppressing the enemy.
She called this move "one force defeats ten skills". It looks simple, but its killing power is extremely amazing, making it impossible to defend against it. Its power is almost comparable to the gravity gun carried by Ni Ji.
There were several huge pits under Ni Ji's feet. However, now they were covered with flowers, and it looked like just a normal change in terrain.
But Ni Ji, who had keen observation ability, still figured out that this was the landform formed by Du Yuanyuan's big move in this area.
Last night, several of them passed by here. They encountered something here and started a fierce battle.
Lin Yuan was surprised and delighted. He was glad that he had not taken the wrong route, as his companions had passed by here last night.
Surprisingly, after experiencing a temporary route change last night, they encountered a tough battle here and it is unknown whether they were able to successfully enter the bunker to take shelter.
Lin Yuan stood up on the whale's back. The killer whale's eyes with black fins and white belly glowed purple. The man and the whale were like shooting stars chasing the moon, passing over the sea of flowers.
Ni Ji stepped on the shadow cast by the killer whale on the ground and followed closely.
They quickly reached a new shelter and opened the roof.
Ni Ji entered first, popped his head out after a moment, and nodded to Lin Yuan.
"They were here. It's just..."
Judging from the situation inside the bunker, Nicole and her friends had been here last night and had spent the entire day resting in this hiding place.
But when night fell and the temperature dropped, they had already left and set off again.
A step slower.
A dazzling light appeared on the horizon. The hot day came again.
You can only close the roof of the shelter. Take a break in this small underground bunker to avoid the hot daytime.
They searched the small space carefully.
There were blood-stained gauze and opened medicine on the ground, indicating that some of the people who had entered earlier had suffered serious injuries.
Lin Yuan found a letter left for himself, opened it, and looked at the signature. It was written by Nicole.
Dear Yuanyuan:
I'm sure you've realized that we have to change the route we agreed with you and enter this hiding place.
I don't know which path you and Sentinel Ni Ji will choose in the end. Can you see this letter I left for you?
The sentries all said I was delusional. There were so many hiding places here that it was difficult for us to get into the same place by chance.
But I always feel that we are so in tune with each other, you must have a chance to see it. (Smiley face)
Yuanyuan was injured, seriously, and I almost cried again. But now I am the only guide left in the team, and I have to take the responsibility of calming the emotions of the sentinels.
So I didn't cry this time. Am I awesome?
I provided spiritual counseling for Yuanyuan and bandaged her wounds. As I write this letter, she looks much better.
Without you in the team, I realized how difficult it is for one person to work with multiple sentinels and take care of the overall dispatch.
Fortunately, everyone is very great and gave me a lot of encouragement and help.
The fight of the sentinels was thrilling. We paid a heavy price but luckily managed to get in here safely.
I think you and Ni Ji must be safe now, right? It must be like this?
Yuanyuan, I once again admire your strength. I finally understand how hard it is for you to get to where you are today. It takes many life-and-death battles to hone your abilities.
But now, I am no longer content to just stand there and envy you and applaud you.
I want to be a brave person like you. You have set a good example for us. In the future, there will be more and more guides like me.
The road ahead may be difficult. But I have discussed with several sentinels and we plan to continue moving forward.
This is a choice we made. I hope you can understand and cheer for us.
No matter which path you choose, I think we will meet at the end.
You once said that you would find the gem that could unlock the secrets of the world here.
Now, you are not the only one working towards this. All of us, like you, want to unlock the true secret that concerns each and every one of us.
Hehehe, then let’s have a competition this time.
We might get the stone before you do.
Come up quickly, Yuanyuan, my friend.
Don't make me wait for you too long at the finish line.
A crooked little snake was drawn at the signature position. She twisted her thin body and crawled forward. A panda with a bandage on its back was tumbling behind her. There was also a lion and a unicorn in the team.
Lin Yuan read the letter twice.
Although the words on the letter looked light-hearted and cheerful, a sense of uneasiness and heaviness remained on the paper.
The cave was filled with blood, medicine, and the scent of his companions. But they had left at the last transition between day and night.
Lin Yuan held the thin piece of letter paper tightly.
If I hadn't told them my ultimate goal before I set out, if I had been like before, hiding it from everyone and going alone.
Then wouldn't they be like this? Going forward with injuries? And wouldn't they be like this? Making themselves uneasy and anxious.
"She said, I don't want to just stand there and envy you." Ni Ji turned his head and read the sentence on the letter.
He only read that one sentence and accurately soothed Lin Yuan's heart.
Lin Yuan looked up at the sentry beside him.
The sentry's eyes were gentle, yet firm.
Seeing that gaze, Lin Yuan recalled the night before setting out.
The night before departure, Lin Yuan brought the small box of truth downstairs in the garden of his own home and showed it to all his companions.
The small wooden box was shining brightly.
The Mary cruise ship, the phantom of the golden tree, the symbol of an eye without a pupil, one virtual image after another appeared above the box.
The final result is a praying mantis suspended in the air.
"So, your ultimate goal of risking your life by entering the contaminated area again and again is to light up this box?"
"The Land of the Pongo. Does this pattern mean that you can get the gems you want in the Land of the Pongo?"
Lin Yuan nodded.
The partners were all very surprised and sighed endlessly.
Feelings of surprise, shock, and astonishment came one after another.
Box of Truth.
According to legend, if the grooves on the box are filled one by one, the person holding the box will be able to see the truth of the world.
Where did today's world come from and why did it arise? Can we even see the end of the legend? Where is the future of mankind heading?
The biggest secret in the entire world, something that all human beings should know.
There are also some things hidden in it that the Empire and the White Tower are unwilling to make public.
They had always felt that Lin Yuan was different, but they never thought that she was exploring such a big and amazing secret all by herself.
"How many stones are left?" The one who asked this question was Ni Ji, who joined last.
"Two pieces." Lin Yuan replied, "If we can successfully get the gems in the Tiger-Eating City, then we only need the last piece."
It seemed that success was just around the corner. But Lin Yuan knew that every groove that was lit up on this box had gone through hardships and dangers.
"Has anyone else ever sought these gems?"
"There were... but they are gone now, dead at the very beginning."
Lin Yuan didn't know whether there had ever been any other team that wanted to light up the Box of Truth.
She only knew that her mother and father had once obtained a gem and had tried hard to light up the box.
But mother, father, and their powerful partners are all gone. They sacrificed their lives to see the truth.
In the past, she was alone, holding a treasure, harboring secrets, and planning to take one step at a time.
Now, with so many trusted partners, she wants everyone to see the box.
If she fell down on the road, maybe someone would be willing to take the box from her.
On the last night before departure, Lin Yuan told everyone everything he was going to do.
The risks, the secrets, the places you want to go, the secrets you keep, all are pushed aside and placed here.
Everyone still has time to make their own choice.
It is very difficult to turn back once you start on this road. It is full of thorns and you don't know what kind of monster is waiting at the end.
Lin Yuan lowered his eyes and felt uneasy for the first time.
In her sight.
I don’t know who stretched out the first hand, then the second, the third…
The partners clasped their hands tightly around the small box of truth.
Many years ago, there was a little girl who lost both her parents in a fire.
She took over the secrets left by her parents and walked alone on the long dark road.
There are thorny thorns on the road, but also roses blooming at night.
Before I knew it, I had one partner after another.
…
The sun rose again in the sky, and scorching flames burned.
Lin Yuan and Ni Ji hid in an underground shelter.
Lin Yuan held a pen in his hand and added a spherical killer whale and a round Kraken behind the row of cute spirits drawn by Nicole.
Little Kraken rode on the back of the killer whale, trying hard to catch up with its little companion in front.
