Chapter 97: Chapter 95: Appearance
How far have you climbed?
Su'er was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at the safe point, and compared it with the distance above the strait - something is wrong.
Suddenly, his back felt cold. Su'er clearly remembered that he and Think should have climbed at least seven stone pillars, so why was he still on the second stone pillar outside the safe point?
And the most difficult thing to understand is - why didn't Think or he notice this at all before? It was as if they were forced to ignore it deliberately.
"...Can you tell what race it is?", Su'er swallowed his saliva and whispered to Think.
"I don't know, there are many races that can do this, after all, my current state is too easy to be deceived", Think took a deep breath and stretched out his hand to Su'er, "Continue to try upwards."
Does that mean more observation is needed?
Nodding seriously, this time, Su'er deliberately slowed down his movements and slowly sent Think up, while he himself kept turning his head to scan the distance between him and the safe point.
No change, no change, no change, no... huh?
Su'er was shocked to find that he was far away from the gap just now, and the distance was indeed getting farther, but when he climbed up the stone pillar above his head, he found that he was still on the edge of the second stone pillar, as if the space at the edge of the stone pillar was connected from beginning to end, forming a never-ending circle.
His Heart suddenly sank, and Su'er asked Think hesitantly: "Do you want to continue? My physical strength can't withstand too many attempts."
If this is really an infinite loop of space, then with the physical consumption of such continuous climbing, I am afraid that in the end, even if Think really found out where the problem was, he would not have enough physical strength to help the two people escape.
Knowing this, Think bit her lower lip and did not give an answer immediately. Instead, she tried to prop up her body and swayed around to explore, while Su'er took the opportunity to rest.
The stones thrown around flew freely along the parabola, and the stones thrown upwards also successfully reached the top of another stone pillar. There was no situation where the stone thrown forward flew from behind and hit her.
This contradicted the previous speculation that it was a circular space, or did the person who trapped herself and Think here put the stone alone? Just to confuse the two people more?
Or was it an illusion of the two people?
He twisted his thigh hard, and the pain did not delay at all. Su'er thought quickly in his Heart, and suddenly stood up and climbed up again. He did not need to send Think up with him, so he moved much faster at this moment.
After a short run-up, he jumped and clung to the edge. However, when Su'er pushed himself up, the expression on his face and all his movements froze. Think, who should have stayed on the stone pillar behind him, was sitting on the stone pillar in front of him, watching him.
Even though he tried hard to suppress the panic and tension that inevitably rose, Su'er pursed his lips and climbed up without saying a word. There was no doubt that his attempt failed.
"Did you find anything?" Su'er voice became deeper and deeper.
"...No, I watched you climb up, but then I found that you climbed up from the back where we came from. Everything was very natural, and my consciousness did not feel disconnected, as if you should have come up from there," Think simply described all his feelings just now.
"It shouldn't be a spatial ability," Think bit her fingertips and muttered to herself, "Except for the top few races, the ones who use space the most are the Flügels. However, with their power, they shouldn't do such boring tricks. Simply wiping us out is what they would do without brains..."
Time passed by minute by minute... No, Su'er couldn't even be Sure whether his feeling of time was accurate at the moment. He raised his head and looked around. There was nothing in the air. In his ears, there was still the sound of analysis that Think subconsciously made when thinking quickly. Su'er lay on the edge of the stone pillar and looked down at the dark black sea water at the bottom of the strait - can he get rid of the current predicament by jumping directly from here?
This is indeed a way out that was prepared when the safety point was set up here. Combined with the history told by Think, the original blow of the God of War scratched a deep wound on the Surface of the planet. After being filled with seawater, there is no need to worry about not being deep enough and falling to death directly below. The only thing to pay attention to is the posture when entering the water.
I have swam down to confirm it in the past.
"...If you think like this, then it's clear what kind of boring guy it is."
Think voice suddenly rose, and Su'er turned his head to look at her.
Ignoring Su'er, Think just looked around and said in a tone of confirmation and ridicule: "Right? An unknown vampire?"
There was silence, and the only sound that kept echoing around was the sound of waves hitting rocks from below, echoing back and forth in the strait.
"Still unwilling to come out?" Think smiled and continued: "Ah~, it's not that I can't understand it. After all, it's really embarrassing to make such a clumsy illusion that is comparable to the mud kneaded by a one-year-old child, but it doesn't matter? As a vampire, it's already very encouraging. You can be more confident~"
Su'er sighed silently. Even though he couldn't use the spirit and his body was injured, Think ability to speak was not damaged at all.
But... a vampire?
He quickly recalled the knowledge about Dhampir species in his mind, but he could not recall much. This species was mysterious even in various records. Even Su'er impression of them was based on the name and various movies and novels he had seen in his previous life... vampires?
"Hahahahahaha", the laughter came from the air, without a specific location, sometimes on the left, sometimes on the right, "It is obvious that you can only move ugly with the help of monkeys, and you haven't even seen through this illusion until now, but you are full of confidence when you speak?"
Perhaps he felt that his erratic speech was also a manifestation of lack of confidence, just like an invisible eraser rubbing back and forth in the air, the owner of the voice finally appeared in the air little by little.
A golden-haired... Dhampir species.
