Chapter 271 What's Wrong, Mr. Hunter?
"Hey, hey, hey, what's wrong with you!"
Yvina's anxious voice woke Vic from his brief coma.
"I...what's wrong with me?" Vic found himself lying on the ground.
"You should ask yourself this." Ivana knelt beside him, not caring that her robe was stained even dirtier by the dust on the ground. "You just fell down with a 'wow'."
"Ah?"
"Yeah, 'Ah'." Ivana nodded repeatedly, and then looked at Vic with expectant eyes, "How is it, did you remember anything?"
"I..." Vic opened his mouth, "I don't know."
"...You really don't know or you don't want to tell me?" Ivana said, "I'm telling you, your condition may be very serious now. If you don't want to tell me, it will, it will... get worse!"
It seemed like Yvina wanted to make a ferocious expression to scare Vic, but she was not very successful and it looked like a grimace.
"Okay, he's fine."
At this time, Bai Wei also walked out from behind the statue, looking relaxed and contented, without any sign of worry.
Judging from the reactions of the two, it seems that Ivana is the one who has a better relationship with Vic.
Seeing this, Ivana immediately wanted to alienate the two, but before she could open her mouth, she heard Vic say to Bai Wei: "Father Uru... I dreamed about that again."
Yvina raised an eyebrow.
What is “that”?
Bai Wei smiled and replied: "Isn't this a good thing?"
"Good thing?"
"Yes, it means you and it really experienced something here, otherwise there would be no reaction." Bai Wei said, "At least it means we have found the right direction."
Vic's eyes suddenly lit up: "Is it possible for me to get it back?"
"Maybe." Bai Wei said with a smile, "It's also possible that it has always been alive and is in your body. What it just showed you is what it wanted you to see?"
"...I understand!" After hearing Bai Wei's words, Vic immediately stood up, looking very impatient, "Let's continue!"
Such a change made Ivana a little dumbfounded.
What and what?
What exactly is the "that" that Vic is talking about? It sounds like he is talking about the little wolf, but what exactly is he dreaming about? Can you explain it more clearly?
It's obviously just three people, but we still have to use encrypted calls. And no matter how you look at it, I am more trustworthy than that foreigner, right? When you fell, I ran to your side, right? Why would you rather trust that foreigner who always looks like he doesn't care about anything, than trust me, a saint from the same religion? !
Ivana looked at Vic with resentment, while Vic tilted his head, a little curious: "Miss Saint, why are you still kneeling on the ground?"
“I…” Ivana took a deep breath, resisting the urge to complain. She stood up and patted the dust off her knees. “It’s nothing. We can continue.”
It seems the time is not right yet.
Ivana glanced at Bai Wei furtively.
He has been with this stranger for too long, so it is normal that he doesn't trust himself yet, so he needs to take it slow, slow.
Ivana warned herself in her heart.
Of course, all her mental activities were "seen" by Bai Wei.
"The Hall of Courage is different from the Hall of Beginning." Ivana resumed her duties as a saint. As she led the two inside, she explained, "If you want to pass through the Hall of Courage, you need to pass the test and get the approval of the God of Senluo."
"What?" Bai Wei asked with a smile, "Is the God of Senluo going to come out of the coffin to test us?"
Hearing such "blasphemous" words, Ivana, as the Saint of Senluo, naturally could not tolerate it. She immediately turned her head and glared at Bai Wei fiercely.
And then, nothing happened.
After all, the God of Senluo is dead. Even if she wants to defend the dignity of God, she doesn't know who to defend it for. You know, the last hunter of Senluo is standing next to that guy.
Thinking of this, Ivana couldn't help but feel a little sad, but she didn't show it. She just said indifferently: "Of course not. It was a test left by the God of Senluo. Of course, it still contains His power."
As they were talking, the three of them had already reached the back door of the temple.
The only difference is that the back door was tightly closed. There were two crossed spears in front of the door, and a round mark on the door that looked like a target.
"What is this?" Vic asked.
"Don't you remember?" Ivana looked at Vic, "If you really arrived at the sacrificial site half a month ago, you must have passed through this door."
"I..." Vic scratched his head, "I really don't remember."
"Then you'll know if you try it first," said Yvina.
Vic nodded, walked forward immediately, and stood directly under the two spears according to Yvina's instructions.
Then, the two spears suddenly began to vibrate as if they sensed something.
Then, a sudden "crackling" sound startled Vic.
He raised his head and saw a golden arc of electricity leaping up at the moment when the two spears crossed.
Vic's eyes widened.
The arc grew larger and more violent, but at the same time it gradually took shape from complete irregularity.
Finally, it converged into a golden lightning spear, which was exactly the same as the lightning held in the Senluo statue seen before!
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, the God of Senluo is quite creative." Bai Wei said, "Isn't this test just to jump up and grab the lightning spear, and then throw it at the target on the door?"
Ivana looked at Bai Wei in surprise: "You know this too?"
"Isn't this obvious at a glance?" Bai Wei shrugged. "And, if I'm not mistaken, if you don't throw the Lightning Spear before it hits the ground, and you land on it while holding it, you'll be killed by it...right?"
Ivina was even more surprised. She didn't understand why Bai Wei knew it so clearly, as if he had experienced it himself.
You know, when her grandmother brought her here for the first time, she thought about it for a very long time before she came up with the solution, and it was her grandmother who gave her the hint of "courage" that allowed her to figure it out.
When she thought of her grandmother, Ivana couldn't help but feel a little depressed, but she soon realized this and quickly covered up the emotion. At the same time, she turned her head and looked at Vic: "Do you remember now... Uh, Vic?"
At this time, Vic had collapsed to the ground, staring at Lei Ting in front of him, his pale face full of fear, so much so that even his body was shaking constantly.
“Vic?!” Ivana didn’t expect Vic’s reaction to be so big. You know, she was still a child when she first came here with her grandmother. Although she was also frightened by the lightning spear at that time, it was not to the extent of Vic. “What’s wrong with you?!”
Vic didn't answer. He held his head tightly, as if he had encountered some kind of natural enemy. He couldn't even hear what Ivana said just a few meters away.
Lightning flashed in his eyes, making his vision gradually blurred.
Then he saw that under the burning sky, the God of Senluo, who was about to be destroyed, was holding thunder and staring at him quietly. His thunder-like eyes were full of unquestionable majesty.
"Fight or die."
He said this.
No! No! No!
Vic's brain and body were fighting the command.
I’m going to die! I’m going to die! I’m going to die!
"Make your choice!" He roared, "Those without courage do not deserve to live!"
No! No! No!
His brain was screaming too.
That's not courage!
"You disappoint me." He said this, and then swung down thunder.
Vic felt like he was going to die, he watched the Thunder Spear explode before his eyes and engulf him.
but.
"It's okay, Ade, it's okay!" The voice sounded again, "Leave it to me, leave everything to me."
He was once again placed in a warm and safe embrace.
"Vic! Vic, wake up!"
Yvina's voice came into Vic's mind again.
He opened his eyes again and found himself in Yvina's arms.
The lightning spear had disappeared, leaving only two black spears standing there quietly, as if everything before was an illusion.
But he knew it was not an illusion, because the fear still did not leave him.
"I..." He raised his head, his eyes passed through Ivana and fell on Bai Wei, "I saw it, I was here."
More fragments of memory came flooding back.
He saw the thin figure jump high, grab the lightning spear, and throw it at the seal in front of the door.
"The door... opened." He whispered. "Vic opened the door."
"What are you talking about?" Ivana's eyes were full of surprise, "You are Vic."
Vic opened his mouth and said, "Ah, yes... I opened the door. I opened it."
"You've opened it once, why are you so scared this time?" Ivina asked puzzled.
"I..." Vic's mind was in a mess, "It's Ade."
"Your little wolf?"
"Yes, Ade is scared." Vic said softly, "He was really scared. He had never been so scared before. So I... I hugged him and comforted him, then I grabbed the thunder and opened the door."
Vic's mind was in a state of confusion. After saying these words, he seemed to have used up all his strength and collapsed again.
“Hey, hey, hey!” Ivana was also a little panicked. “You’ve fainted twice in a row. If you faint again, something bad will happen. Hold on.”
Vic didn't faint again, he just felt tired, extremely tired, so tired that he could hardly open his eyes.
"It seems that the puppy conveyed to you not only memories, but also emotions and fear, right?" Bai Wei asked.
Vic nodded with difficulty.
At this time, Ivana finally understood and looked at Vic in surprise: "Do you have the memory of that little wolf?"
After getting Vic's affirmation, Ivana couldn't help but murmur, "There is such a thing."
After a few breaths, Vic adjusted his condition a little. After standing up with the help of Ivana, he said to Bai Wei: "I saw something else."
Then, Vic told about what he saw as the God of Senluo.
When Ivina learned that the God of Senluo had brought "divine punishment" on Vic, her expression became even more unpredictable.
"It's fine if you said you saw your little wolf's memory." Ivana couldn't help but ask, "How did you see the God of Senluo? Whose memory is this?"
"I don't know either." Vic shook his head, and then looked at Bai Wei, obviously wanting to get an answer from Bai Wei.
But Bai Wei just shrugged and said, "Sorry, I'm a believer of Rhine, and I don't know much about you Senluo."
Vic immediately showed a disappointed expression.
"But I think we will definitely get the answer if we keep going." Bai Wei turned his head and looked at the two spears again, "So, do you want to continue?"
"certainly."
Vic answered without hesitation, but when he looked at the two spears, his body began to tremble again as if by reflex.
Ivana also noticed this and said worriedly: "Have you been so deeply affected by your little wolf? This state is not good. If you fail, then..."
Hearing Yvina say this, Vic trembled even more violently.
He could feel that his entire body was rejecting the lightning.
If possible, he never wanted to touch that thing in his life.
But he had to go there.
What should we do then?
Vic struggled.
And just at this moment, a sudden thought came to Vic's mind.
Why... not let them take their place?
The person who opens the door doesn't have to be him, right?
Whoever used the thunder to shatter the darkness could open the door, so why... must he be the one to open the door?
There is absolutely no need for him to take risks.
In other words, why should he take the risk? Why?
Vic's eyes gradually became dazed, and unknowingly, he began a "dialogue" with the idea in his mind.
“Because this is where I’m going in, and they’re helping me,” Vic said.
“No, no, no, they are not helping you, they are just using you.” The thought said, “Think about it, you are the only one who bears the risk of failure, but you can’t enjoy all the success. This is not fair.”
"…Then what should I do?"
"Let them do it, let them take the risk," the thought replied.
"But...will they do it?"
"Of course I will."
"I do not understand……"
"You know," the thought said. "You always do this, don't you?"
"……Who are you?"
The thought smiled: "I am you."
Vic was in a trance.
The conversation lasted only a moment in his mind, so much so that he couldn't remember it after it was over.
But his body had already reacted unconsciously.
"Father Uru..." He looked at Bai Wei with pleading eyes, and his voice subconsciously became a little weaker, "I think I can't make it, can you..."
"Oh?" Bai Wei asked with a smile, "What's wrong, Mr. Hunter?"
Hearing the word "hunter", Vic's confused eyes suddenly became clear.
