Chapter 185 Ger and Chris
The sea of fog is indeed a forbidden area for all life. Once you enter it, you can never escape.
Not only was it because of the more severe backlash of fog after leaving, but also because of that mysterious, unknown and inexplicable mental wear and tear.
Therefore, this place has always been a place where one can never return. Except for the Tanwu family, few people have the courage to set foot here.
Li Qi stood in front of the sea of fog and looked left and right.
The reason why the sea of fog is called the sea of fog is because the fog inside is too thick.
Standing outside the sea of fog and looking inside, you can't see anything at all. There are white walls of fog all around.
Therefore, the boundary line of the fog sea is also called the 'white wall', a name that is popular only among exploration teams and fog explorers who have been to the fourth floor.
Beyond the white wall is the sea of fog.
A wall separates us from life and death.
When Ronnie saw the white wall, his body was already shaking slightly, but it was not out of fear, but rather some kind of indescribable excitement.
The end point of Tanwujia, the most mysterious place in the world, is now right in front of him!
Although I have fantasized countless times in my mind that I would become a great fog explorer and enter the sea of fog to explore.
But when he really stood in front of the sea of fog, Ronnie still found it difficult to hide his excitement.
"Get ready to go in."
After standing at the edge of the white wall and observing for a long time without seeing anything, Li Qi no longer hesitated.
He instructed Ronnie as ropes appeared on his body and wrapped around himself, Ronnie and Emma before he raised his hand to touch the white wall in front of him.
The white wall was made of mist and did not present any resistance. Li Qi's hand easily sank into it.
Then it was the other hand, then the whole body, and in the end only the rope connected to Li Qi was left outside.
Li Qi entered the sea of fog. Ronnie and Emma looked at each other and walked in without hesitation.
In the blink of an eye, the three of them disappeared at the edge of the fourth layer of fog area and stepped into the place of no return in this world.
…
The sea of fog was not as scary as Li Qi had imagined.
What about the place of no return? What about going there being almost dead? These rumors can’t be said to be absolutely wrong, but how dangerous they are…
Li Qi felt that it might not be as dangerous as the foggy area.
In other words, if we can find a way to be immune to the backlash of fog inside the sea of fog, the sea of fog will be more suitable as a safe zone for humans than the first layer.
At least that's what Li Qi has observed so far.
The only thing is that the fog with visibility less than three meters is a bit annoying. If you want to live in this place, you need to deal with this difficulty.
The fog in the sea of fog did not pose much of a restriction to Li Qi.
This is probably why Li Qi is no longer human.
He is a relic now, not even a living being. It would be strange if the sea of fog could restrict Li Qi.
Li Qi could see farther, hear farther, and feel what was hidden behind the thick fog.
As a result, they did not encounter any danger along the way.
No matter what kind of danger it is, Li Qi can lead everyone to avoid it. Although this will reduce the fun of exploration, it is at least safe.
Li Qi took Ronnie all the way to the most critical part of the crystal without any obstacles.
A large manor villa that shouldn't be standing in the sea of fog.
"Teacher, aren't you going to continue?"
Ronnie, who was feeling a little dizzy after walking with Li Qi for an unknown amount of time, saw Li Qi stop and asked subconsciously.
Glancing at Ronnie, Li Qi said softly, "We have arrived at our destination."
Hearing this, Ronnie instantly became much more energetic. He raised his head and looked forward.
In a thick fog, a luxurious castle manor appeared in front of Ronnie.
The fog in the sea of fog was so thick that one could hardly see anything more than three meters away, but they could clearly see the castle in front of them.
Not only this ancient castle, but also the tall tower next to it and the building that is upside down on the ground and looks like a ship are all clearly visible.
Ronnie rubbed his eyes and made sure that what he saw was real and not an illusion. Then he asked Li Qi: "Is this our destination? What's here?"
"Your relics have no sense?"
Li Qi asked Ronnie in turn.
Ronnie shook his head: "...Crystal has been sleeping and hasn't woken up yet."
After the crystal fused one component, it has been in a dormant state. Before it could completely fuse the previous component, Li Qi brought the scepter and took Ronnie to the Light Chasing Society to fuse another crystal component.
After the continuous fusion of several components, the crystal is now in a very deep coma, and it will definitely not be awakened for a while.
And with Ronnie's half-baked sensing ability, he really couldn't sense anything.
"This is a bit troublesome..."
Li Qi stroked his chin and muttered to himself.
As an original relic, Li Qi can now sense that the largest whole of No. 5 is in the manor in front of him.
But when he walked to the front of the manor, Li Qi's perception of No. 5 dispersed, as if everything here was a part of No. 5, and he lost his accurate perception of No. 5.
Originally, Li Qi wanted to let Ronnie act as the sensor radar to directly find the key components of No. 5, but who would have thought that Ronnie's remains have not woken up yet.
This is a little troublesome.
"Forget it, just go in."
After thinking for a while, Li Qi couldn't think of a solution, so he decided to use a stupid method and rush forward.
Anyway, there will always be a way out when you reach the mountain. With Li Qi's current strength, he really doesn't have to worry too much.
Li Qi planned to go in directly, and Ronnie and Emma, led by Li Qi, had no objection and followed him into the manor.
Li Qi originally thought that this was just an unusual exploration of ruins, just like the ruins he had explored before.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped into the manor, Li Qi felt something was wrong.
The moment he stepped into the manor, he immediately turned around and looked behind him.
The rope connecting Ronnie and Emma was still wrapped around his body, but the young couple who were also entangled by the rope disappeared at this moment!
"Teleported away? No..."
At first, Li Qi thought that the two people were teleported to other places by this space.
But when he turned around again, he found that the scene in front of him had changed.
The original manor became a street.
The originally foggy environment was replaced by sunshine, and the damp and cold air in the sea of fog also became dry.
There is a feeling of stepping into the normal world in an instant.
What surprised Li Qi the most were the people on the street.
The streets were bustling with people, and on both sides there were vendors of various appearances, selling daily necessities and some things that Li Qi couldn't understand.
It's like coming to the normal world.
Li Qi was still observing and thinking about what to do next, when he suddenly felt someone patting him on the back, followed by a girl's voice:
"Hey, new guy?"
"!?"
Li Qi was startled when he was patted on the back without any warning.
According to his senses, it was rare for someone to approach him without him noticing and slap him on the back!
Li Qi instantly became alert and turned to look to the side.
But after seeing this, he froze where he was.
The man who patted Li Qi on the back had beautiful blonde hair, and the most eye-catching thing was the pair of golden eyes that were exactly the same as Li Qi's.
She put her hands behind her back and tilted her head to look at Li Qi with a faint smile on her face. The smile seemed a little naughty, but it didn't make Li Qi hate it at all.
Li Qi knew her and had met her.
Although he only saw her in a thousand disguises, Li Qi also remembered her appearance.
Yes, she is Chrissy.
Li Qi's life...
Mother.
…
"Ger! I'm back!"
In a corner of the city, in a small house, Chris pushed the door open with Li Qi and greeted the handsome boy who was cooking inside.
"Oh, welcome back... um? Any guests?"
Gel put the freshly cooked dishes aside and turned to look at Li Qi who came in.
Chris nodded and said:
"Yes, he's a newcomer here. I saw that he didn't seem to know anything, so I brought him back directly."
"Hey, hey... Can you please change your habit of kidnapping people so casually..."
Gel looked a little helpless, then turned to look at Li Qi. After seeing Li Qi's golden eyes, he was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I'm sorry, my wife is a fool. I hope she didn't cause you any trouble?"
"…No."
The young man shook his head slightly, his eyes seemed a little complicated.
"Ger! Don't call me an idiot! Seriously, I'm going to get angry!"
After hearing what Ger said, Chris seemed dissatisfied.
But everyone could see that the blonde girl was not really angry.
"Yes, yes, does this make you feel better?"
Gel smiled and picked up the food on the table with chopsticks and fed the blonde girl.
The girl's cheeks immediately turned into a hamster's. She hugged Gel tightly while chewing and said with a smile, "I forgive you!"
“…”
Although he didn't know what was going on, Li Qi felt like he was being fed a mouthful of dog food...
Perhaps noticing that there were outsiders here, Gel and Chris did not show off their affection too much. The two quickly returned to normal. Gel invited Li Qi:
"If you don't mind, sit down and eat together. It happens that I cooked a lot of dishes today."
"Is it okay? It seems like we just... just met..."
"Of course it doesn't matter. In this village, we are all companions."
Ger responded with a smile.
Chris chewed on the side and said incoherently: "...Anyway, it doesn't matter as long as they are not those bastards from the Light Chasing Society!"
"Don't worry, the people from the Light Chasing Society don't have the courage to enter the sea of fog."
Gel fed Chris again and gave an evaluation of the Light Chasing Society.
Seeing that the two were about to enter into their loving world again, Li Qi finally couldn't help but cough dryly, interrupting them and asking: "Sorry, there are still many things I don't understand, can you...can you explain it to me?"
Seeing that they didn't seem to recognize him, Li Qi was filled with confusion.
Li Qi felt strange about this place, the reactions of Ger and Chris to him, and their attitude of being content with the status quo.
I always feel like... they seem to have forgotten their responsibilities.
