Chapter 19 Quickly Transmigrate! Conquer the Handsome Demon King (25)
I followed closely behind, using the spiritual power in my body to sense every hidden trap and alert Liang Xu.
At this moment, I suddenly felt a piercing chill coming from behind. The moment I turned around, a sharp arrow flew past my ear and hit the stone wall behind me.
Seeing this, Liang Xu grabbed my hand without hesitation and jumped forward, avoiding a flame shooting out from the ground.
"You have to be careful," he whispered, his eyes firm and worried, "these devices are more deadly than you think."
I nodded, knowing in my heart that this was just the beginning.
We still have a long way to go, and there may be unknown dangers around every corner.
Even so, I still held Liang Xu's hand tightly and moved forward firmly.
However, at this moment, a huge machine suddenly rose from the ground and blocked our way.
The roar of machinery echoed in the narrow passage, as if foreshadowing an even more terrible disaster to come.
Our eyes met, and there was no need for further words between us.
"No matter what, we must go on together." Liang Xu's voice was firm and powerful. At this moment, I felt an inexplicable warmth surge in my heart.
Suddenly, a blinding light shot out from the mechanism. We quickly dodged, but were unable to avoid it completely.
Liang Xu's body was brushed by the light, and his skin instantly felt a burning pain, but he still held my hand tightly and led me forward.
The roar of the machinery was deafening, echoing in the narrow passage. I stared closely at the constantly changing gears and spurting flames, trying to find a pattern in them.
My spiritual perception is like a fine net, capturing every change in the spiritual fluctuations in the air.
I discovered that the mechanisms seemed to operate at a certain rhythm, and that their power would weaken for a moment at regular intervals.
"Liang Xu, pay attention to the rotation of those gears," I said in a low voice, pulling his hand to avoid an oncoming flame, "Every time they rotate to a certain angle, their power will weaken. We can use this gap to rush through."
He nodded slightly.
We walked side by side, as if dancing on the edge of a knife. Every move was precise and every dodge was dangerous.
I relied on my spiritual perception to predict the attacks of the machine, while Liang Xu used his magic power to block the damage that could not be completely avoided.
We worked in perfect harmony, as one, and moved forward with difficulty in the ruins full of dangers.
His back was always in front of me. I could feel the tenseness of his body and the silent protection he provided.
Every time danger comes, he always protects me behind him first and uses his powerful magic to create a safe space for me.
An indescribable warmth surged in my heart, a warmth that even surpassed the fear brought by the agency.
Occasionally, we would look at each other while avoiding the authorities. At that moment when our eyes met, I seemed to forget the danger around us.
His eyes were full of determination and concern, and my eyes reflected his tall figure.
There is no need to say much, we all understand each other's feelings. At this critical moment of life and death, the feelings between us are even more unforgettable.
On both sides of the passage, the walls were covered with strange patterns that flashed a faint light, as if telling ancient secrets.
I have a vague feeling that there may be a bigger conspiracy behind these ruins.
However, now is not the time to think about these things, we must first get out alive.
Suddenly, the ground shook violently and a huge rock fell from the sky, blocking our way.
I didn't have time to think about it and instinctively pulled Liang Xu to the side to dodge.
At this moment, the device above my head emitted an even stronger beam of light, which hurt my eyes.
"This isn't right!" I blurted out with a hint of panic in my tone. The power of the mechanism seemed to become irregular, and my spiritual perception gradually began to become dull. I tried to concentrate, but to no avail.
Liang Xu held my hand tightly.
“Hehehe…” The sound echoed in the ruins, carrying a hint of eerie excitement. I could feel a cold murderous intent slowly approaching.
