Light Spirit Epic Chapter 2699: The Trial of Flame (20)
Chapter 2699 Trials in the flames (twenty)
Sometimes, someplace.
Mutter slowly opened his eyes, feeling dazed and unable to concentrate.
It's similar to the feeling of a hangover. He had drank alcoholic beverages by mistake at a team celebration before and was immediately drunk, and that's how he felt when he woke up the next day.
So what is this place? His vision was still blurry and he couldn't see clearly.
"Are you awake?" A voice called in his ear. Mutter looked at the reputation and saw the rat-man boy Mitch.
Wait. Why does Mitch appear in such a place? Why is the surrounding landscape crystal? Although Mutter is still a little confused, he can still think logically. He remembered that he had just fallen asleep with a cold on the way to Lviv, and he had never touched the crystal rapier, let alone cut his hand with the rapier. How did he come to the abyss crystal realm without using a rapier?
"Mitch?" Mutt stood up alertly: "Why am I here? You------"
He just wanted to reach out and touch the other party, but his hand passed through Mitch's arm like a phantom, and couldn't touch the other party at all!
"This is...!" Mutter, who was already panicking, felt a chill in his heart again.
"Calm down." The Rat Man boy said, "You can't touch me, probably because only a part of your consciousness has entered the grain boundary, but your body is still in the real world."
"A part of my consciousness?"
"Yeah. The abyss is such a structure. Even if you only have consciousness, you can still enter." Mitch shrugged, "From the first time you used that crystal rapier, a part of you has been forever. The abyss crystal world. Every time you try to go back to the real world, you don't actually go back completely, and a part of you is still here."
Mutter frowned.
"You, have you abused the power of the abyss crystal world again?" Mitch asked in a slightly reproachful tone: "It is because of the abuse that your mental fatigue reaches a certain point, and the body in the real world falls into Deep sleep state. Because you are asleep in reality, most of your consciousness is transferred to the grain boundary."
"How could this be possible!" the cat boy complained, "So no matter what I do, I can't do without the crystal world? Even if I think I have escaped, once I fall into a deep sleep, it will haunt me like a nightmare again. Follow me..."
"If you don't abuse the power of the crystal boundary, this kind of thing would never happen." Mitch said: "But don't worry, your consciousness is only here temporarily. Wait for your body in reality. Once you have enough rest, you will probably be able to go back when you wake up."
"...really?"
"Probably. Don't ask me." Mitch said with tears in his eyes, "I haven't gone back anyway, and I'll stay with the crystal world forever."
Mutter is a little gloomy.
"Also, let me show you something." The Rat Man reached out his hand, slowly approached Mutt's face, and finally touched Mutt's cheek.
"Huh?! How are you...!"
"What you stay here is a pure spirit body, so you can't touch me. But what I stay in the crystal world is a purer spirit body than you, as long as I focus a little, I will have A way to touch you. This is the nature of the grain boundary." Mitch smiled: "Actually I probably still haven't touched you, I'm just trying to make you [feel] touched by me."
"Um...don't understand." Mutter got up from the ground, only to realize that the cave he was in was Mitch's hiding spot. Maybe Mitch brought him back. This hiding place is located on the higher terrain of the cliff on the side of the crystal boundary canyon, and the monsters wandering around in the crystal boundary are basically unable to come here.
"It's no use worrying now. Come on, I'll show you something interesting." Mitch walked out of the cave.
Mutter has nothing else to do and doesn't want to get too far from Mitch, but to keep up. After leaving the cave, he discovered that there was actually a crystal bridge outside. That was what he made with the crystal rapier last time. The crystal bridge stretched from one side of the canyon cliff to the other side of the canyon, almost connecting the two sides of the canyon into one.
"It's still there." Mutter couldn't help but be surprised: "Isn't the abyss grain boundary changing often?"
"To be precise, the grain boundary is constantly changing according to the thoughts of the owner of the grain boundary. The owner of the grain boundary is a temperamental, erratic guy, and ultimately it is reflected in the continuous change of the grain boundary." Mitch He replied: "The crystal bridge you made last time is still there, just because the owner of the crystal world thinks it is very interesting and keeps it. If one day he gets tired of this bridge, it will disappear immediately. ."
"Oh." Mutter grunted. Indeed, the abyss crystal realm has a master. The amethyst giant dragon that the cat boy saw last time is the absolute lord of the abyss crystal realm. The entire abyss grain boundary is his possessions and creations, and he can turn the world upside down with a single finger. In the specific domain of the abyss, what to keep or what to destroy is entirely up to the will of the abyss lord.
Mitch ran along the Crystal Bridge, presumably planning to run to the other side of the canyon. Mutter remembered that a certain position in the middle of the crystal bridge was broken, and it was broken in the last battle. Sure enough, when they reached about the middle, they saw the fracture of the Crystal Bridge. However, the broken part is still held by dozens of crystals, which float eerily in the air, forming a small platform that can be stepped on. Therefore, even if Mitch is not as agile as Mutter, he can still step on those small floating platforms and jump to the other side of the broken bridge.
"This is unscientific." Mutter couldn't help complaining when he stepped on the floating platform and jumped over. However, the abyss grain boundary is not the real world, it is a high-dimensional hyperspace with a much higher dimension than reality, and the laws in reality cannot be fully applied to the abyss. Everything that appears in front of Mutter's eyes is at best a "simulation of reality", and it doesn't need to be completely reasonable. As long as the lord of the abyss has this intention, this crystal bridge can even become a pool of liquid floating in the air, and can even sprinkle rainbows down.
Confused (and even confused), Mutter followed Mitch to the other side of the canyon. This is the platform where he fought with the Thunder Giant last time. The traces of the last battle have even been completely preserved, and have not been changed by the Lord of the Abyss. Even the "exit" from the abyss grain boundary has remained, but it has been closed. There are no enemies around the platform, and it seems to be safe for the time being.
"So you did try to use that exit to get out." Mutter said, "But the exit is no longer open, is that so?"
"Yeah. Almost." Mitch replied, "But I knew from the beginning that I couldn't leave. I didn't have high expectations."
"You really don't want to go back, Mitch?" Mutter asked, "It's so easy to give up hope of escaping here?"
"Didn't I say that," the rat-man boy sighed: "Even if I can go back to the real world, I am a person from a long time ago. I am immortal in the crystal world, but not in the real world. Maybe As soon as I set foot in the real world, I'll turn into a mummified corpse...or turn into ashes, leaving nothing behind. Just thinking about that makes me terrified..."
Mutter was silent for a while: "That's fine, I won't force you. But you should also understand that you can't stay here forever. If you stay in the abyss, your spirit will gradually be eroded. In the end he went crazy------"
"Then it will become the same as those crystal monsters. Yes, I understand." Mitch replied: "But it has been a long time since I fell into the crystal world. I still maintain I'm not crazy like this. Probably... This is also the arrangement of the master of the crystal world. He thinks that I am a fun toy, so he keeps me like this, and he doesn't put me Become one of those crystal monsters."
"But he's moody. What if he gets tired of you one day...?"
"Then one step counts as one step." Mitch smiled bitterly: "My fate is completely controlled by the Lord of the Crystal Realm. What can I do?"
Mutter did not answer. He looked up and down the Rat Man boy. Usually, Mitch almost only wears a pair of shorts, fearing that there is not much clothing left by the crystals of the grain boundary to continue to tear and damage. But today Mitch was wearing the new clothes that Mutter brought him to the abyss, and he had walked so far away from the cave where he was hiding. The child seems very happy, has something good happened?
"Here. Take a closer look." Mitch led Mutter to a huge crystal whose surface was like a mirror, reflecting a certain landscape.
"This is...!" The cat-man boy turned pale in shock just by looking at it.
Because he saw Albert's face through the crystal.
No. Not only that. Albert, who was reflected in the crystal, was holding a small thing and handing it over to someone. The scenery changed in an instant, and what was reflected in the crystal was the face of the black rabbit girl Nina. One side of the crystal reflected a white-gloved cat's paw, a soft, real kitten's paw. The paw was poking at Nina's chest curiously, as if "treading milk".
"What's going on?" Mutter asked.
"This is the kitten's vision." Mitch replied, "It's probably your vision as a kitten."
"What?"
"This mirror reflects your vision in reality. I have confirmed this before." Mitch said, "First of all, I did not deliberately peep your private life, I just found this by accident, and many more Just a few glances."
Mutter frowned. Although Mitch said he didn't peek deliberately, if this crystal can really reflect the scenery that Mutter sees in the real world, wouldn't his private life be seen all over?
"Now your consciousness falls into a deep sleep and runs into the crystal world. In reality, you have become a cat, and your body is temporarily controlled by the animal's consciousness~IndoMTL.com~The Rat Man Continues : "That girl hugged you and treated you like a real cat. Hmm... from this side I can only see the scenery, but I can't hear the sound from there. So what exactly happened over there? "
"Probably entrusted." Mutter looked at Albert's disappearing figure through the crystal mirror, knowing that they had reached Lviv. And Albert handed Mutter, who turned into a kitten, into Nina's hands and left.
The kitten stretched out its paws to keep Albert, but the young tiger man walked away without looking back. He either went to the refuge stone room to rest, or went to participate in the battle of the [Great Hunting Festival]. No matter which one it is, he will not return to Mutter for a while.
I'm very concerned. What will happen next. Mutter swallowed. In the grain boundary, he can't interfere with himself in reality, he can only look through the mirror like this.
"It's just us," Nina said to Kitten. Although Nina's voice could not be heard from here, Mutter had learned a little bit of lip language and could guess from the mouth shape of the black bunny girl what she said.
"Let's get along well before the [big hunting festival] starts." Nina walked to the side of the hall with the kitten and sat down: "We have fresh trout caught from the river, we want to eat it. ?"
