three hours ago.

somewhere in the rainforest.

The jungle rustled softly, and Duan Hua emerged from the darkness.

Shi Rui raised his head and looked in the direction from which the voice came.

Seeing that it was Duan Hua, his face showed a seamless expression of surprise: "Are you back so soon? The problem is solved?"

"Brother, has he accepted your apology?"

Duan Hua had a strange expression, his eyes wandering: "Yes ."

He subconsciously reached out and touched his wrist, which was covered by his sleeve, but stopped for a moment.

There still seems to be the touch of the other's fingers on that piece of skin - very cold, much lower than the body temperature of ordinary people, like some kind of cold and soft cold-blooded animal, winding up silently, although it is only a It passed by, but the touched memory seemed to be branded into the bone and blood, and could not be removed for a long time.

A strange itch spread from that small patch of skin, making him want to scratch.

The expression on Shi Rui's face was still perfect:

"It's hard work, let's take a rest."

Then, without warning, a

mutation occurred.

Darkness engulfed the sky, and GPS and communication systems were simultaneously disabled.

From the depths of the dark jungle, the manic howls and footsteps of the monsters seemed to be fleeing aimlessly.

Duan Hua looked up in panic and looked at the dark sky above his head: "This, what's going on?"

As a person with a ghost in his heart, even if there is no evidence, he subconsciously associates the current anomaly with his actions just now. Connected together, the blood on the face faded.

Difficult, could it be...

Shi Rui was also flustered, and almost didn't hold back the expression on his face.

He looked down at the watch in his hand, and quickly recovered from his brief panic.

The current situation is more like the collapse of the system than the academy discovering their little tricks.

Immediately afterwards, he realized that the paralysis of communication also means the failure of monitoring - this time, even if there is an accident in Shi An during the exam, no one will link it to himself.

It's like God is on his side!

Shi Rui calmed down.

He said: "This should be a problem with the school's system. Don't panic. At most, the communication and monitoring are disconnected. It should be restored after a while."

At this time, one of the freshmen said:

"It seems that It's not a general system failure, haven't you noticed, the color of the sky has become a bit scary... In addition, the school's system is built with pure magic, and the probability of problems is very small... Also, the response of the monsters seems to be a little different. That's right."

"Then, what to do then?" the others asked in a panic.

"Either stay in place and wait for the rescue, or go to the emergency exit in the middle of the rainforest, there are only two options."

Duan Hua said almost impatiently:

"I think we should take the initiative to find the emergency exit! After all, who knows how long it will take for the rescue to come. It's really unsafe to stay here, what's more, we came from the central area of ​​the rainforest, and we left traces along the way, so it shouldn't be difficult to find the way back."

It's too close to Shi'an. .

Once something happened to the other party, as the last person who saw Shi An, Duan Hua was easily suspected.

More importantly...

He knows very well what will happen to Shi An next, so he doesn't want to stay nearby when the other party "has an accident".

Shi Rui spoke rightly and said, "I think Duan Hua is right, this is the best way now."

Since Shi Rui has said so, other people naturally have no opinion.

So, the group set off again and walked back along the road they came from.

Duan Hua walked at the end of the line without saying a word.

His face was pale, his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and his left hand was unconsciously pressing his right wrist, which seemed particularly restless.

I don't know when it started, that vague itch became gradually unbearable.

There seemed to be countless tiny bugs wriggling under his skin, bit by bit gnawing at his flesh, and a fiery burning sensation spread from that piece of skin.

Duan Hua lifted his sleeves and looked towards his wrist.

In the dim light, you could vaguely see that the piece of skin was smooth and flat, and there was no change in the memory.

Is it... an illusion?

Duan Hua thought in surprise.

In the dark jungle, the passage of time becomes difficult to measure.

The team moved forward cautiously, fumbling little by little, looking for the path from which they came.

In the meantime, they also encountered a few sporadic monsters head-on.

Everyone was surprised to find that after the mutation, the monsters seemed to become more sensitive and agitated, and the hostility was stronger. Usually, the low-level monsters that were very easy to kill, at this time, needed the cooperation of several people to force it.

"Boom!"

Another monster fell heavily.

After the battle, several team members who participated in the battle turned their heads and looked at Duan Hua not far away in confusion.

——He made too many mistakes today.

However, because Duan Hua usually acts arrogant and domineering, everyone dare not say anything for a while.

Only Shi Rui took a step forward and broke the deadlock:

"Duan Hua, what's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?"

Duan Hua smiled reluctantly. The sword he used to hold in his right hand was changed to his left hand.

He explained stiffly: "Today, I'm not in a good state..."

In fact, in the sleeve tube hanging by his side, from his arms to his palms, he began to tremble violently uncontrollably.

As the number of times Duan Hua released magic power increased, the burning sensation became stronger.

It lurked deep under his skin, burning from the roots of his bones, gnawing and chewing at his muscles, as if to set him on fire from his wrists.

He was as flustered as an ant on a hot pan.

But Duan Hua didn't want to show his timidity, so he could only endure it through gritted teeth.

Is it Shi'an?

No, it's impossible... How could he find out in such a short time? And what if you found out?

That bastard, you even need to cheat in exams! How is it possible to do such a thing? !

While he was thinking about it, a strange sound came from the darkness in the distance.

Everyone was stunned and looked in the direction from which the voice came.

It seemed to be some kind of roar.

At first it was just a faint vibration.

However, it only took a few tens of seconds for it to become some kind of deafening violent sound.

It seems to be issued from the heart of the earth, and it seems to be the sound of thousands of troops marching.

The earth seemed to tremble, the surrounding trees trembled under the pressure, the leaves rustled, and the terrifying sound approached from all directions, as if it could engulf them.

Under the terrifying sound pressure, everyone stood there, almost forgetting to move.

I don't know who shouted -

"Climb up the tree!"

They woke up like a dream, and they hurriedly climbed up the tree.

Holding the trunk, the freshmen looked down one after another.

In such a dim environment, they could see almost nothing but countless flickering dots of light.

Blue, yellow, a little red.

The collar, which symbolizes the difficulty of the monster, glows in the darkness, illuminating the shape of the monster like a tide, and the dust billows, as if the dark waves roared towards the distance.

For monsters, the blocking effect of trees is minimal.

But unexpectedly, they didn't stop at all, just like they didn't notice those people lying on the trees at all, but ran towards a certain goal with great unity.

The students turned their heads dully and looked in the direction of the rush of monsters.

There seems to be...

east.

Scorched earth area.

The heaven and the earth shook, all things died, and the endless darkness surged, like poured ink, rushing in violently.

In the open space at the forefront, there were two humans standing.

Compared with the huge number of monsters in front of them, their bodies looked so small and fragile, as if they would be swallowed up in the next second.

The front-end monsters are already close at hand.

This is really over.

Lin Yanming closed his eyes in despair, waiting for the mortal fate to come.

one second.

two seconds.

three seconds.

...

a minute.

Nothing happened.

-Wait, what's going on?

Lin Yanming opened his eyes in astonishment.

With the weak light of the backup power supply, he regretted his decision to open his eyes extremely, and it took almost his whole life of courage not to pass it again.

So close, so close.

Those ferocious eyes with the desire to kill looked over from a few meters away, and they were so close to each other that he could smell the stench sprayed from the bloody mouth.

Lin Yanming swore that he had never seen the situation in front of him even in his worst nightmare.

But...don't know why.

It has been so long, and the group of menacing monsters with killing intent still haven't launched any attack.

It was as if there was an invisible barrier between them, blocking each other's movements.

The monster smashed the ground with its front feet in a frenzy and fury, but it seemed to be worried about something, and could only roar unwillingly and angrily.

Lin Yanming stared blankly at the monster not far away.

I don't know if it was a self-delusion, he seemed to see...

fear in the eyes of those monsters?

Suddenly, Lin Yanming felt a sudden pain in his wrist.

He called out "Ouch" and looked down subconsciously.

I saw a black beetle the size of a fingernail crawling onto his hand at some point. It had a weird face, and its fangs were deeply embedded in the skin of his hand. While giving him a twisted and ugly smile.

"..."

Lin Yan rolled his eyes and fainted.

Demon Insect: "??"

Wait, is my venom attacking so fast?

Shi An: "Nice job."

He raised his thumb: "Successfully scared him unconscious!" The

worm: "..."

It didn't want to accept the fact that it made the other party ugly, and shouted angrily: "It's poisonous! Poisonous!"

Shi An follows suit: "Okay, poisonous."

Demon insect: "...Can you be a little more perfunctory?"

Shi An interrupted it ruthlessly: "Okay, okay? Now, don't waste time, move him to the emergency exit, it shouldn't be far away anyway." The

devil sighed and shook his wings, and countless smaller black beetles drilled out from under its wings and landed on the ground. It started to grow in an instant, and it didn't stop until it reached the size of a fist.

As if they were conscious, they all climbed under Lin Yanming's body, held the unconscious human, and carried him to the distance without complaint.

Seeing Lin Yanming being transported to the exit, Shi An withdrew his gaze.

He looked at the monster in front of him curiously, and then slowly and tentatively took a step forward.

There was a restlessness in the group of monsters, and frantic roars came one after another.

However, the clear line between the monster and Shi'an was very sharply concave inward in an instant.

When Shi An took a step to the left, the monsters took a step back to the right.

He took a step back, and the other side followed another step forward.

Just like a hilarious ballroom dance.

Shi An blinked and raised his feet again.

——I don't know why, but the reactions of these monsters always seem familiar.

Oh yes, it seems to be exactly the same as the few demon insects he encountered in the mock test before...?

The devil took a deep breath: "Have you had enough?!"

"Not yet." Shi An's eyes were shining.

The corner of the monster 's mouth twitched: "Sir, do you need me to remind you that the duration of the abyss is limited."

Shi An: "..."

He looked at the group of monsters in front of him, then turned to see that it was not far from him the abyss.

After hesitating for a long time, he sighed sadly, and reluctantly gave up the desire to continue playing:

"Okay."

But before the worm could breathe a sigh of relief, he only listened to the other party's bargaining:

"But, at least there should be time for me Burn a few for fun!"

"..." The devil: "...you burn."

"Yeah!" Shi An squinted and smiled.

A cluster of crimson flames rose from his fingertips, and he fluttered out of his hand, like a ghost fire that could be blown out in one breath, but the huge energy contained in it was terrifying and suffocating.

The monsters receded away from the flames like dominoes, but there were so many of them that there was almost no escape after they were crowded into a pile.

The moment he was hit by the flames, the ending was already doomed.

The blazing flames wrapped around as if they had their own consciousness, chewing and devouring the unfortunately chosen prey, using their flesh and blood as fuel, growing recklessly in the dark.

Shi An moved his fingertips lightly.

The flames exploded, and in the miserable roar of the prey, it mercilessly turned it into pitch-black coke.

The raging fire was reflected in the dark and deep pupils of the young man, and it was elongated into a golden-red pattern, which had a cruel and innocent beauty.

"It seems that the monsters alienated by the abyss are not completely useless."

Shi An licked his lips and concluded.

The worm shivered for no reason.

Sorry you are really scary.

Shi Anzhuan caught a monster wearing a red and blue collar and burned it.

You must know that his dragon flame is very precious and consumes a lot of magic power, and it is not worth wasting on a too weak monster.

So after playing around for a while, there are not many monsters with outstanding strength left.

Shi An looked back in despair, and sighed: "This ability academy has poor eyesight, and few of the monsters caught are resistant to burning." The monster

collapsed.

big brother! How many monsters in this world can withstand your burning? !

Shi An finally had enough.

He stretched out his hand to pick up the demon worm from the ground, and said excitedly: "Go! Go to the abyss!"

There should be a lot of burn-resistant ones there!

The demon worm grabbed Shi An's fingers tightly with its six legs and looked back from between the other's fingers.

The remaining monsters were still following behind Shi An not far or near.

Each of them looked extremely struggling.

The human body in front exudes a feverish smell that makes them appetite, and the fresh and warm blood food tickles their appetite, but they can also feel the undisguised danger of the other side-the instinct is in the two. He screamed wildly, saying he wanted to run and chase.

Looking at the group of monsters that were following up again, the monsters were hesitant to say anything:

"Then... what about the rest?"

Shi An didn't care: "Follow, they can still eat me?"

Devil: "..."

You're so fucking right.

Soon, Shi An came to the edge of the abyss.

On the endless scorched black plain in front of him, without warning, a very deep and black gap cracked open. The edge was steep, like a scar cut on the ground with a huge sword. The gray-white mist slowly escaped from it, releasing deadly toxins outward.

Shi An looked down and asked curiously, "Can I go back to the abyss after I jump down?" The

monster said, "That's not how the abyss cracks work."

It pointed to the edge of the abyss: "You See there? Isn't the border a bit blurry?"

Shi An blinked: "Yes."

It's like two overlapping sheets of paper with two different edges.

"Actually, this is the process of the expansion of the abyss crack. Its spatial meaning is slowly overlapping with the ground. Before this process is completed, the space in this crack does not belong to the abyss, nor the ground. It is more like... a middle Zone." The demon worm thought for a while and explained it in the most simple and easy-to-understand way.

"However, when it is completely overlapped, it will no longer be a crack, but will become a passage between the abyss and the ground."

"So it is." Shi An was a little surprised.

He thought about it for a while, and was a little frustrated: "Then I can't go back to the abyss for now?"

In Shi'an's era, the abyss and the ground were a complete whole. As long as they were strong enough, they could travel between the two areas at will. But now, not only has the abyss and the ground been divided into two areas that must be connected by a channel, but he has also lost his former power -

as an abyss dragon, he can't even go back to the abyss!

hateful!

The demon worm put a thin leg on Shi An's shoulder: "Sir, don't worry, when you regain your strength, you will be able to directly tear open a gap in the abyss, then kill all the humans who want to stop it, and wait for it to spread into a channel. After that, you can go back to the abyss!"

Shi An: "You're right!"

- Now the most important thing is to restore your strength!

Although he hasn't fully entered the gap yet, but after just standing on the edge for a while, Shi An can already feel the familiar power slowly filling up.

Shi An is full of confidence.

If you continue at this speed, you should be able to return to the abyss to find treasure soon!

Thinking of the mountains of sparkles in his cave, he felt very anxious, and he wished to immediately restore his original body and return to the abyss-after so many years, you must be here!

While Shi An was in a trance, the magic worm suddenly noticed something was wrong.

There seems to be some unusual traces on the edge of the cliff not far away.

After carefully distinguishing it, it was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what it had found - it was clearly a trace of magic left by humans!

And the opponent's magic power is so powerful that it can even tear apart the corner where the abyss and the ground overlap.

Among the humans who can achieve this level, I am afraid only...

bad! Mu Heng has arrived! And it is estimated that it has entered the crack!

The worm was startled.

It suddenly remembered that he hadn't had time to tell Shi An Muheng the true identity of the dragon slayer!

The demon worm opened its mouth and was about to speak to remind.

But the next second, a sense of weightlessness struck without warning.

The wind was howling, and the sky was spinning.

——It took the devil two seconds to realize what Shian had done.

... This ancestor actually jumped right off the ****! !

Mu Heng lightly threw the black blood droplets on the silver sword, and behind him, another abyss species corpse crashed down.

Suddenly, he seemed to hear something, frowned slightly, and looked up.

...is anyone screaming?
