"Changes at dawn?" Hao Ren wondered, "What is it?"

"This village is not always active. When the first rays of dawn shine on the fence at the edge of the village, everything will immediately lose vitality and fall into a strange state of suspended animation. I suspect this magical piece The land does n’t work perfectly, so it needs to take a few hours of “rest” every day. The village will recover after noon. ”

"It seems that the distortion of Space - Time here will be weakened after dawn," Vivian thought, "It should be easier to break the blockade by then, and it will prevent any traps from being triggered."

Hao Ren also nodded in agreement: "Well, and can wake up the goods after dawn-or have to carry her out."

Everyone ’s eyes fell on the Lily who was sleeping, and everyone showed their gentle eyes caring for the stupid dog. Vivian sighed: "The lack of heart is the treasure of life, I do n’t know how she does it. You can eat and sleep wherever you go. "

This night, apart from Lily's sleep, everyone didn't get much rest.

Hespe rides reminded her of the Olympus family at that time, many thoughts made her sleepless; Vivian was very sensitive to the strange atmosphere lingering in this village, and she was a nocturnal creature, and she did n’t sleep all night; Hao Ren couldn't sleep because of the noise from the square, so he studied with ASanbaA how to communicate with the little evil spirit. The result was that his finger was bitten several times ...

As for Pierre, according to his statement, as long as the villagers act in accordance with the law, they can weaken their vigilance. He has bypassed today ’s surveillance and no one will be there until the noon of the next day. Came to find his trouble, so he found another room in the long house and slept overnight.

While the Wang brothers and Catherine who stayed on the square, Pierre said that they had "too immersed in this land and were assimilated quite seriously", and it is currently difficult to restore reason, and rash contact with them can only lead to The curse power of this land is alert, so the best way is to let it go first. If the curse can be lifted from the outside in time, they may have the possibility of recovery.

In the early morning of the next day, when the first rays of sunlight shone into the small village, Hao Ren immediately felt that the surrounding atmosphere began to change.

"It seems to be quiet," Vivian listened carefully to the movements in the village, "And the activity of the creature is weakening."

ASanbaA also made a report: "The distortion around Space - Time is alleviating, confirming that some kind of energy decline is happening on a large scale."

Pierre took the Hao Ren and his party out of the long house and walked in a village that suddenly became quiet.

Everything around is different.

The old houses are more broken than before. The mottled wooden walls and roads are covered with a layer of gray as if faded. A strange smell mixed with the smell of earth and a slight rot is floating in the air. , But could not tell where the smell came from.

Lily rubbed his eyes and made a big yawn. The strange smell in the air made her frown: "Huha ... it's so bad."

Pierre took the crowd to the edge of the village, and they did n’t see any villagers along the way. The place was now dead, like a grave and silent. Hao Ren asked curiously: "Where did everyone go? Has it disappeared because of the decline of magic?"

"They are all in the house." Pierre said, coming to a log cabin beside the road and pushing open the decaying door.

A middle-aged villager lay quietly on a low bed in a wooden hut. Hao Ren glanced forward and found that the villager's skin was pale and pale, and he collapsed abnormally as if dehydrated. However, he was not a dead person: After getting closer, Hao Ren found that the villager's chest was still slightly undulating. He was still breathing, but it was faintly imperceptible.

Vivian stepped forward and touched each other ’s skin: “It ’s lower than my body temperature.”

"Living people, but no different from death," Hespe rides whispered, "This kind of phenomenon of living dead was quite common in the Egyptian gods that year, they are good at making half-dead legions, but it is still not the same here. . "

“None of the things in this land are illusions, houses are real objects that have been maintained by magic to this day, villagers are also living human beings, but supernatural forces have distorted everything so that they exist in a rather strange state,” Pierre Shaking his head, "To be honest, I don't know what will happen once the curse is really lifted. Perhaps without the support of magic power, the people here will die immediately, and the village will instantly turn to ashes ..."

"According to your opinion, this village has actually turned into ashes more than two hundred years ago, and now this land is only entrenched in a dead soul that refuses to disperse," Hespe rides glanced at the spirit world detective. , "As for the villagers here ... If the soul dissipates, the people who only leave a shell are nothing but walking dead, and at the moment they are completely 'transformed', these people are already dead. What we have to do now is Lift the curse as soon as possible so that the three people who have not been completely devoured can survive. "

At the edge of the village, the low, run-down wooden fence was still crumbling, drawing a border for this cursed place. Pierre stood in front of the fence, looked at the dark forest outside, and shook his head. : "Even when the magic power is weakened, I can't leave here. The power of this border will not change with time."

Hao Ren reached out and looked out of the fence. This time, he clearly felt that his hand had crossed an invisible barrier.

He never felt this barrier when he stepped into the village.

This barrier is repelling out-of-bounds behavior. He felt a momentary energy fluctuation, and then ASanbaA began to read a rising value. The terminal immediately issued a warning: "Space - Time skew phenomenon is intensifying! This place is being renewed Close! "

Hao Ren withdrew his hand, as expected, the closure of Space - Time detected by ASanbaA gradually recovered.

"As expected, you can use force to break through the blockade, but this will also touch the secret boundary, and when you stop crossing the boundary, the boundary will be restored immediately," Hao Ren turned back, "It looks like an unattended. 'S security system follows strict rules of action. "

Vivian looked at Pierre: "We can take you out, but to be honest, you better stay here-we are going to the noble mansion to trace the root of the curse, the danger of that place is probably dangerous It ’s much higher than the village here, and in case of emergency, we may not be able to protect you. ”

Pierre smiled: "I also think it's best to stay here, I and you can only get in the way."

"Then wait for our good news," Hao Ren patted Pierre on the shoulder. "You can rest assured that we will never leave you alone."

"I can only hope for you," Pierre smiled reluctantly, and looked at Vivian. "Your suggestion is worth considering-maybe I am also retired from this line."

"Oh, you take this thing," Hao Ren touched it in his pocket, took out a small communicator and handed it to Pierre, "Use this to keep in touch with us, the method of use is very simple."

Pierre took over the communicator and frowned slightly: "Is it possible that the enchantment around the village will interfere with the signal?"

"You can rest assured," Hao Ren put a thumbs up, "The signal of this thing is not so easy to be disturbed. You stay in the village to observe the situation, we go to lift the curse, if there are any changes, we need to communicate with each other. Contact me. "

This is where Pierre put the communicator close to him and nodded firmly.

After inquiring about the general orientation of the aristocratic mansion, Hao Ren and his party forcibly broke through the space blockade at the village boundary and came to the normal forest area.

When crossing that boundary, the whole village shook violently for a while. It seems that the magic power entrenched in the depths of the earth was angered by the escape of "prey". However, as the Hao Ren line completely broke through the boundary, all the differences The appearance quickly recovered.

The process of getting out of the "dilemma" is unbelievably simple, but Hao Ren knows that the "curse" of this village is not a problem for his own group of people. The real problem is the secret behind it: the whereabouts are unknown Haige Hercules , the ancient artifact with the power of Vivian, and the historical truth that led to the curse of the village.

Identify these things as the main task in front of them.

The road in the forest is still rugged and difficult to walk, but after leaving the village, the surrounding atmosphere is clearly refreshed, and the rugged and difficult road is not so boring. Hespe rides walked at the front of the team. She seemed to inadvertently say something casually: "I always feel that the village is not just about being" cursed ".

"Yes, the enchantment around the village is the result of careful layout, and the purpose is very clear, that is, 'only enter and not exit,'" Vivian replied. "It is more like a cage than a curse. "

"The cage is used to close things," Hao Ren said quietly. "If someone deliberately created the boundary of the village, he must be worried that something will run out of the village, as for those trapped in it ... I am afraid ... It's just an accidental victim. "

At this time, Lily was completely awake. She listened to the conversation between Hao Ren and Vivian and interjected: "Is this cage too weak? Like our level, you can walk out directly."

Hao Ren thought for a while: "There are only two explanations. Either this cage is really so weak, or this cage has been broken through, and what remains today is just a shell with little effectiveness ..."

At this time, Hespe rides suddenly made a noise, interrupting the words of Hao Ren: "It seems to be just in front." (To be continued.)
