Chapter 122 The Wandering Travel Group (Fifty-three)
【bite--
The red veil was detected to match this copy.
Tip: The red veil can help you hide your breath and blend in with the ghosts. This prop is not a one-time prop and has no time limit for use, but it can only be used by two people at most. 】
Nan Huan already had a plan in mind, but her plan was too risky, and if she had to take Bei Xi into consideration, her plan would be greatly reduced.
Just as she was considering whether to take a gamble, the system suddenly spoke.
Nan Huan realized belatedly that the prop category on his control panel had been flashing.
It is very likely that the item has been activated before, but because I didn't notice it, the system had to remind me.
It seems that the system is really anxious this time, and it is obvious that it does not want to let the game enter a period of deterioration.
With this reminder, Nan Huan remembered that this red veil was a game reward from the previous copy. It had been used only in limited copies, so she had not taken it seriously. She did not expect it to come in handy at this time.
The closer you get to the abyss, the darker the light becomes, as if you will never see the sun here.
Nan Huan quickly pulled out the red veil and put it around her and Bei Xi. In an instant, the surging ghost shadows suddenly stopped approaching them and attacking them.
While the woman in the long robe had not caught up yet, Nan Huan found a hidden space blocked by coffin fragments near the entrance of the abyss below.
"You can't put yourself in danger. Once the whip hits you, you won't be able to move."
Bei Xi realized what she was trying to do, and although she tried her best to stop her, she was still stiff from being whipped, and could not move at all, nor interfere with Nan Huan.
"You expect her to recognize you within two whips. That's too risky. She is still under the control of the Imperial Master. What if she doesn't wake up? If she does, you will be dead after three whips."
Nan Huan's body was still feverish. She endured the discomfort and temporarily dragged Bei Xi to a secluded place and covered her with a red veil.
"Don't worry. The Book of Infernal Affairs has already given a detailed explanation, stating that only Heer can control the Infernal Affairs Spirit Whip. This also indirectly shows that the Imperial Master only used some means to influence the other party, but did not completely control the other party. You can see this from the different colored robes on her body."
"What we need to do now is to wake her up. There is no other way except this. My fighting power is not good enough, so I can only take a gamble."
Nan Huan knew that Bei Xi was worried, and he also knew that if the other party could make a move, he would never let himself take the risk.
But the current situation is that Hel is not conscious. Not only will all of them fail to pass the level and die here, but more importantly, the door cannot be sealed, the mission will fail, and the ghost will enter the rest area and other copies.
Although I don’t know what it means for the game to enter the first stage of deterioration, I have a hunch that it won’t be a good situation.
Nanhuan has no choice but to take a chance.
Bei Xi disagreed with her approach. If she were asked to choose between everyone and Nan Huan, she would undoubtedly choose the latter. No greater justice was as important as the person in front of her.
However, she knew that Nan Huan didn't like to hear those words in the past, so she never mentioned them before the other party's New Year. But now it's different.
Nan Huan had been with her for such a long time, how could she not understand her heart? Before she could speak, she held her hand again, "I know what you want to say, but you just found a way to let me escape alone, so what? Do you know how I lived during the three months when you had no news? I really don't want to live that kind of life again, do you understand?"
She lowered her head and kissed Bei Xi on the forehead, "Didn't we agree that if we encounter this situation again in the future, we will never let each other leave first?"
Bei Xi was silent for a moment, but his eyes were always fixed on Nanhuan in front of him.
"You only have two chances. If the situation is not right, use your skills and make sure you stay alive."
There were so many things hidden in her deep eyes, and these words were almost squeezed out of her throat.
"I know, I will come back to find you, wait for me."
Nan Huan nodded, glanced in the direction above Bei Xi's head, but didn't say much.
After hiding Bei Xi in a secluded place, he did not forget to use props to catch two ghosts and keep them outside.
Because of the sudden loss of the breath of two living people, the ghost at the entrance of the abyss finally broke free from the dark ghost world and hurriedly ran towards the bright place.
The few scattered ones were temporarily controlled by Nanhuan using props.
She stood at the entrance of the abyss, leaning sideways to look inside, while in one hand she was holding a few golden threads and playing with the ghost shadows.
This was the scene that the woman in the robe saw when she caught up.
The hand without the whip instantly turned into black mist when she saw Nan Huan, as if it wanted to stick to him immediately, but for some reason, after moving for a long time, it was stuck in the same place and couldn't move.
The woman in the long robe who had been swinging the whip changed her previous behavior of running away when she saw Nan Huan alone, and stood far away, not swinging the whip at the first moment.
"Hull?"
Nan Huan called out tentatively, "Do you still recognize me?"
Time was a bit tight, and Nan Huan couldn't find the props for face-shaping for a while, so he could only hurriedly replicate the plain clothes that the princess wore when she went to see Heer for the last time.
The details may not be so accurate, but they are basically the same. In his mind, he recalls the wandering soul of the princess and lets himself see the scenes before the princess' death, thus imitating the princess's behavior and expression.
Their faces were identical, with almost no difference except that the princess's was slightly younger.
It was so dark here, and once she put on the clothes, she looked 90% like the real person. Besides, Nan Huan's previous acting had fooled the imperial teacher, so she suddenly said this.
Not only was the real Hull stunned for a moment, even the consciousness of the national teacher who was focusing on the other party paused for a moment.
His left hand was still jumping back and forth between the black fog and the normal limbs, but after hearing Nan Huan's voice, he suddenly raised his hand and took off the hood of his robe.
Under the hat was a face that Nan Huan was familiar with, exactly the same as Bei Xi.
It’s just a little more mature compared to the memories or role-playing plots.
She stared at Nan Huan with red eyes, as if she didn't believe it and was struggling, but in the end, she was replaced by pain.
A ferocious look flashed across Hull's face, as if he was trying hard to control his body, but in the end he still swung the whip uncontrollably.
Nan Huan was always watching the hand holding the whip in Heer, so before the other party made a move, he had already spread his wings and flew up.
She really wanted to use this trick to wake up Heer, but that didn't mean she would just stand there and let him beat her.
Seeing that this method was effective and that Heer did respond to what she said, Nan Huan gave up on running away and chasing, and instead circled and dodged in front of the other party.
But the words never stopped.
"Ha, you can hear me, right?"
With the help of her wings, Nan Huan's speed was quite good. She used the coffin fragments on one side to gain momentum, and the moment she turned around, she brushed past the whip, and the wind blew up her hair.
"It was the Imperial Master who controlled the princess... that is, me. He made me go to Ghost King Ridge, which almost caused a disaster." In this environment, Nan Huan could only try to arouse the other party's more awareness. "Don't you know all this? How could you be deceived by this person?"
The hand holding the whip waved faster and faster, as if it didn't want Nan Huan to say more words and disturb Heer's controlled mind.
Nan Huan's physical strength had gradually reached its limit. She turned and flew slower and slower, and the words she shouted no longer had any logic.
"Why are you still not awake? I can't hold on any longer."
Bei Xi, who was hiding in a hidden place, could hear Nan Huan's voice through the channel.
Whether it was the opponent's increasingly heavy breathing or the gradually slowing sound of flapping wings, it all proved that the opponent was almost reaching his limit.
"Anan, please be obedient and leave here first, leave here first..."
Bei Xi coaxed Nan Huan to leave while she was exerting all her strength with her hands. She didn't care about the Infernal Soul Whip at all, she just kept using her mental and physical strength to move as quickly as possible.
There were already beads of sweat on his forehead, but only a few of his fingers could bend slowly. Apart from that, his whole body was still incredibly stiff.
Nan Huan didn't know if he heard Bei Xi's words or not. He just showed a bitter smile on his face, "I don't know how this national teacher deceived you at that time. How could you be so gullible? I told you at that time to go out more often so that you won't be easily deceived..."
Nan Huan's voice became lower and lower, and he didn't know whether he was speaking to himself or to the other person.
But before she could finish her words, she was interrupted.
“Hurry…go…”
Heer finally spoke with difficulty. Nan Huan caught a glimpse of her, and saw that she seemed to be fighting with both hands. She held the wrist of her right hand with her left hand, not wanting the other party to whip her.
I can already speak and resist with difficulty, it seems it is still useful.
Nan Huan was just about to make another effort, but she caught a glimpse of the golden whip out of the corner of her eye. She tried her best to dodge it, but her sideways flexibility was far inferior to that of the other party.
The whip was like a tongue of fire, wrapping around Nan Huan's back, sweeping across her wings, and hitting her shoulder blade hard.
Because the position was too tricky, Nan Huan's wings retracted due to pain, and she fell to the ground, hitting the broken coffin, unable to move anymore.
The souls that were surging in each other's bodies seemed to sense some kind of danger because of the sudden whip, and they couldn't wait to leave this dangerous place.
But for some reason, it could not leave Nanhuan's body and had to flow everywhere.
Nan Huan couldn't move now, even his consciousness became unstable due to the surge of soul, let alone he had the strength to shout to Heer.
After Hull hit with the whip, he wanted to press on and hit with the second whip.
However, the black mist in her left hand seemed to go crazy. It wrapped around her right hand, suddenly dragged her whole body backwards, and then poured her heavily to the ground.
From a third-person perspective, Hull was like his left hand fighting with his right hand, even tripping himself.
And Heer's face also showed a great struggle, and his red eyes turned into an expressionless face, "She is not a princess at all. Have you forgotten that only she can bring your princess back?"
The tone of voice was eerie and terrifying, and it was filled with extreme impatience and a half-hearted coaxing.
In an instant, her expressionless face turned into a face full of pain, "She is the princess, she is back, we can't... hurt her..."
Nan Huan's mind was in a mess and she had no time to care about the dispute not far away, because her mind had begun to uncontrollably replay some fragments of her life.
Some of the scenes were familiar to her and she had experienced them before, but some were so strange. When she felt something was wrong and wanted to look at those scenes carefully, it seemed as if she could not see anything clearly.
"Anan, Anan, can you hear me?"
In a daze, Nan Huan seemed to hear Bei Xi's voice.
"Don't hold on any longer. Just use your skills, just like last time, quickly..."
Nan Huan could hear the other party's worry just from Bei Xi's anxious voice.
Her lips curled up, and instead of telling Bei Xi the truth, she took a breath and responded, "Okay, don't worry, wait for me...ah..."
But before she could finish her words, she was hit on the back again.
Compared to the previous whip, Nan Huan's reaction to this whip was actually not that big, because apart from the initial dull pain, Nan Huan didn't feel much because his consciousness was scattered.
He could only vaguely hear Bei Xi's voice in his ear, as if she was calling him. Nan Huan had no way of confirming what the words were. It was just the first time he felt that Bei Xi's voice was so shrill.
This time, the souls in her body were like boiling water, piercing Nan Huan's body, as if she would explode with just the slightest touch.
Nan Huan's vision was already blurry. She could only see Heer not far away, slowly approaching. The black mist in his left hand seemed to be in deathly silence, while the whip in his right hand was already raised high.
Am I going to die just like this?
An idea came to Nan Huan's mind, and she felt a little regretful. If she had known this would happen, she would have hugged Bei Xi, at least they would have died together.
What's going on with those spirits that fill my body?
I may not have the chance to know.
She wanted to say something to Bei Xi, but just as she opened her mouth, she seemed to hear a familiar voice in the haze.
【bite--
It has been detected that the unlocking conditions of the God Messenger Jellyfish have been met. Do you want to summon it?
The Lady's Envoy*1
Species: Jellyfish
Current level: Divine Envoy
Weapon: Infernal Bell

Skill cooldown time: The cooldown time lasts until the next summoning condition is met.
Points required for a single use: 10,000 points. 】
call.
Nan Huan instinctively said two words in his heart.
While she breathed a sigh of relief, she couldn't help but think that this was actually the trump card she had been holding on to.
Although Beixi's condition was not good after using the summoning skill before, Heer also told him to try not to use it.
But this game always seems to push people to the brink of despair. It just so happens that this summoning skill refuses to appear either early or late, and the prompt only appears when one is on the verge of death.
She had been lying to Bei Xi, saying that she had a trick up her sleeve. But when she separated from Bei Xi, she had seen the numbers above her head. Both the numbers [100] and [10/100] were locked.
But before she could think more, Nan Huan felt her arm getting slightly warm, and pink vines gradually appeared.
From top to bottom, the second petal made of flowing water that wrapped the jellyfish Hull seemed to be blown away by the wind, and the pattern of the jellyfish Hull became more and more blurred.
Finally, it turned into a blue mist, emerged from his arm, and flew towards the corner covering Bei Xi.
In the blink of an eye, Nanhuan felt a puff of steam blowing in his face, and a heavy and distant bell rang. The whip that was about to be swung was stopped abruptly.
Nan Huan felt like he was being held in a familiar embrace, but the other person's body temperature was a little low.
However, she was feeling extremely hot due to the soul in her body, and could not help but hide in the other's arms.
Noticing her movements, the person holding her chuckled, and then placed a cold kiss on her forehead, "Sorry, I'm late..."
As her kiss fell, Nan Huan felt something cool entering his body through the kiss, calming the restlessness in his body, and those chaotic souls seemed to calm down in an instant.
Her wandering thoughts and consciousness finally returned to normal. When she opened her eyes, she saw a pair of blue eyes as expected.
Nan Huan felt that there was something wrong with his perspective. He looked down and found that the lower part of the jellyfish Hel was not a pair of legs like Bei Xi, but had turned into transparent tentacles that supported the ground.
One of the transparent tentacles was wrapping around the whip, as if to free up both hands to hug itself.
"Will Beixi be in danger?"
Thinking of Beixi's last condition, Nan Huan, after sobering up a little, asked the question that concerned him most.
"I finally get to see you," Jellyfish Hell said with an imperceptible smile, "your first question is about her?"
The rising tone at the end of her voice didn't sound very angry, it seemed more like she was joking with Nan Huan.
"The vampire said that none of you are complete..."
Nan Huan corrected her question, "So strictly speaking, there is no such thing as jealousy?"
I don’t know if it’s because the jellyfish Hel has the ability to heal, or if it’s for some other reason, but with that kiss just now, most of Nan Huan’s pain has disappeared, and even the existence of the souls in his body is no longer so obvious.
Aside from some physical weakness, her sanity had completely returned, and she remembered what the vampire Hell had said.
So it’s a little strange that Jellyfish Hull would care about these things.
"Don't worry, you were able to wake her up last time, and you can do it this time too."
