Blood Princess and the Knight

Chapter 25 ~ The Black Fort

After dawn is early morning.

The scorching sun rises from the other end of the horizon, the dark desert ushered in the first ray of temperature, the irritating cold slaps on the cheeks, and the vague and trance consciousness is gradually awakened.

The dimly overlapping eyes slowly overlapped, and what came into view was the dark blue canopy wall.

The heavy eyelids are difficult to open, the fatigue is all over the body, the limbs are like a hammer, and the movement of the fingers is a luxury.

But he seems to have begun to adapt to this declining body.

Ji Bai stood up and found that he was covered with a blanket for some time. He looked around. He was undoubtedly in the shape of a tragic white man standing on a low stone platform in his tent, a crooked castle, and a dark shadow that attacked him. , Are these all dreams?

But if this is a dream, the connection is too perfect, is it also a dream before the sandstorm? Or is it that when the space singularity was opened, I was unaware of being in a dream? The curtain of the tent can only be pulled up from the inside. There is no second person in this tent besides himself, so he pulled the curtain himself up.

There is no memory of last night at all.

The ray of morning light plunged into the tent, and the blue cloth walls were shining brightly, like a big tank filled with water.

Beside the opened umbrella, someone was waiting there early.

Huo Lei with stunned eyes rubbed his head, his face looked a little dull and haggard, but the duck was sitting on the edge of the big umbrella, bowed his head in a thinking state. The atmosphere between the two was a bit subtle, as if a gap was deliberately separated. , The two sides are outside the safe distance of each other, as if they are being wary of each other.

After the immersive real dream, encountering such a treacherous scene, Ji Bai couldn't help but raise a few warnings in his heart.

Between true and false, he can no longer distinguish between the real and the dream. What the eyes see is not necessarily true, and it cannot be ruled out that it is a blinding ability.

I woke up after crossing the sandstorm and found myself sleeping in a tent, which in itself was very strange and suspicious.

"Brother Ji Bai?

Seeing Ji Bai walking out of the tent, Huo Lei's expression moved, and he quickly regained his vigilance.

"Don't come here yet." Huo Lei moved back a little distance.

Kerr watched all this quietly, without speaking

What's wrong with you guys? "Ji Bai pretended to be unaware, and did not continue to step forward.

"You are standing there now, I'm not sure if you are brother Ji Bai." The iron rod behind him was held in his hand, which seemed to be a silent warning.

"Confirm my identity?" Ji Bai spread his hands. "I'm not Ji Bai, who else can I be? Lao Huo, did you fall asleep and confuse your dream with reality?

"What's the matter, I become an enemy when I feel it?" Ji Bai said coldly with his arms folded. "Calm down. No matter what happens, internal strife is probably the result that some people want to see most.

"Of course, which time did you mean?" Ji Bai asked casually in response to Ke'er's plain and meaningful eyes.

"Which one can it be? Of course, Ke'er was taken aback for a moment, suddenly realized, pouting and looking at Ji Bai with mixed emotions.

"Old Huo, do you remember the uninvited drink?

Remember, of course. "Huo Lei was startled slightly and replied repeatedly.

"Now, is it confirmed that it is me."

Kerr and Huo Lei looked at each other, and the misunderstanding between the two was slowly resolved invisibly.

"You heard me say that I had a particularly wicked dream yesterday! The two of you led me to a slanted black castle, and were closed with a whirr. I turned around and saw that you were both gone. Then I felt someone tapping on my shoulder and turned around, "Pale humanoid, standing on a low stone platform, right? ‘"Yes, that’s it! Brother Ji Bai, are you too?"

"It seems that the three of us had the same dream."

Kerr lowered his head, silently acquiescing.

"But why does my memory stay at the moment when the sandstorm broke out, there is no tent to sleep at all. Remember that the sand flows back into the desert along the finger gaps, Ji Bai repeats this action, keeping silent.

"Banner? Brother Ji Bai, don't be kidding me. God knows where in the desert we were teleported to. The flag may be half a desert from us." What am I going to do? 1’3 Horley was very helpless.

"There, is there a building standing there?" Kerr interrupted the communication between the two and pointed to the horizon of the distant desert.

"No? I don't see anything except the sand. Have you missed it?" Well, it seems so. "Although they are far apart, Ji Bai can barely see the small black spot in the distance.

"Huh eh? Have you all seen it? Why didn't I see it?" Huo Lei squinted his eyes, trying to see the black spots in the distance. The troll man’s natural vision limit prevented him from seeing too far away. Things, I can only listen to the two people next to me, faintly feeling that there is indeed a building standing there.

The buildings in the big desert are considered rare products, and they may find out if they go to explore them.

No matter what the black spots in the distance are, you can always find something when you go to investigate.

After making up their minds, the three people who had done a little refurbishment got up, took back the tent and various equipment, and marched towards the distant building.

Time passed slowly invisibly, the bright red dusk climbed to the horizon in the blink of an eye, and the three people who had been walking non-stop for an afternoon were also tired.

One d”F Mu Xiaowan

"Why can't I see the building clearly after walking for so long? Is there a problem with my eyes?" Huo Lei raised his eyebrows and stared, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't see the building standing far away. It's as if his position has never changed and he has been standing still.

The black spot in the distance is like a mirage, no matter how you walk, you can't shorten the distance between yourself and it.

Is it just a projection? Did someone set a trap deliberately?

Glancing at the horizon, the sun has gone down, and the coolness and darkness have enveloped the desert again.

"No matter what, it's getting late, camp on the spot, and think of a solution tomorrow.

Huo Leikeer and the two agreed, and after the fire was raised, they sat on the side to keep warm and nibble on dry food to add moisture.

It seems that due to excessive exercise during the day, the three of them are exhausted and set up their tents early.

After leaving Huo Lei to watch the night, Ji Bai yawned and walked into the tent without taking off his armor. As soon as he leaned against the place, his eyelids began to fight in the crooked black castle, with a faint and dangerous fire on both sides.

Ji Bai, who opened his eyes, found that he was standing in the center of the castle.

He always felt that there was a line of sight staring at him outside the door, but he could not make any movement, as if he was **** by someone, forcibly pressing his head.

The wind blew through the window, and the torn curtains creaked.

The faint firelight flickered and extinguished in the swaying, accompanied by his own shadow, and continuously enlarged with the changing angle of the firelight, gradually becoming less like his own shadow.

After entering the desert, his physical condition became worse and worse.

Is the **** virus restless, or is it because of yesterday's strange dream?

Looking up, he was stunned when his eyes rose.

A coincidence?

"Yesterday, you guys had the same dream?" Ji Bai frowned, watching Huo Lei and Ke'er react in silence.

"Yes, it's still the same castle, but the monster that said to play games with me is gone." Horley seems to still have "the kind of immersive feeling, as if I'm really standing by myself." In the center of that weird castle, I can’t move even if I want to. "Have you noticed that the distance between that building and us seems a little closer."
