Fairy’s Box

After jumping safely from the top of the giant tree, everyone fell into the clear water about a foot deep. After a simple check, they continued to follow the ghost girl's induction and moved towards the depths of the forest.

The deeper we went, the more quiet the woods became. Except for the gurgling water and the swaying branches and leaves, there were only their breathing and the sound of Jacqueline guiding the way.

"Just keep going, it's getting closer."

Yale followed the instructions of the ghost girl while walking forward while looking around from time to time, for fear of killing a bunch of puppet troops halfway.

On the water thirty yards away on the right, there were dozens of red-skinned wild fruits that were as tall as Nannett. They looked bright and attractive, much like enlarged cherries. Probably because of the soaking for a long time, the skins of several wild fruits swelled and cracked, revealing the crystal fresh flesh, and exuding a fragrance.

"The fruit here is really big." Charlene's eyes showed a coveted look, she forcibly looked away and ran away reluctantly.

"Left, right, right, go a little further to the left, it's almost there!" Jacqueline's voice became more and more excited.

They ran forward another fifty miles or so, the water gradually deepened, and the giant trees around them became sparser. The space gradually widened, and the light became brighter. A large area of ​​colorful mushrooms suddenly appeared in the field of vision, each more than ten yards high, like houses drilled out of a fairy tale, surrounded by circles.

"It's almost here, it's in front!" While speaking, the ghost girl suddenly emerged from the crystal, stopped in front of everyone, looked at them eagerly, and said in a soft voice:

"...let me take a look?"

"Whether it's a trap or where Mistertin is, there's only a dead end if you go there. This time it's really gone, and it won't bring any information out."

Pearson stepped forward, touched Jacqueline's head, and pushed her back to Ellencia, with a heavy smile on his face:

"After reaching a certain area, I will release the black bird, Genevieve, you have the best eyesight, be sure to watch at the farthest distance your eyesight allows. If it flies back and forth, it means I am safe. If it disappears, it means that there is a trap, and if it explodes... it means that I have met Mistertin."

The assassin paused when he said that, his expression and voice quickly recovered, and he gave a thumbs up:

"Please believe in professionalism!"

After speaking, without waiting for everyone to answer, Pearson was surrounded by a layer of black mist, and his figure quickly became blurred, and his eyes were about to dissipate in the air.

"Wait a moment!"

The female chief and Yale suddenly spoke at the same time, and the two looked at each other. The black-haired knight suppressed the anxiety in his heart, shook his chin slightly, and signaled to the other party to ask first.

Eluncia then strode up in front of the assassin, put the sword in her right hand into the sheath, raised her fist slowly, looked into his eyes and said:

"I believe in your professionalism, be careful with everything!"

"You put a lot of pressure on me."

Pearson touched the tip of his nose unexpectedly, concealed the expression on his face, and hurriedly punched the female chief. Then, without waiting for Yale to speak, the black mist all over his body suddenly dissipated, and the figure disappeared from the spot in an instant.

Eluncia glanced at the place where the assassin disappeared, patted Jacqueline's shoulder, turned her head and said to everyone:

"Let's go."

The black-haired knight was silent for a while, then raised his head and said:

"Let's go."

...

Pearson maintained the assassination state, galloping silently on the water like a breeze, no ripples could be seen where his feet touched.

Soon, an old blue stone pillar appeared in the field of vision, standing abruptly on the water surface. The top of the pillar was beating with blue flames, and there was no sound of burning. In the silence, the surrounding space was coated with a strange layer. color.

looks weird...

The assassin immediately separated a black bird and let it leap into the air, while he passed by the stone pillar without any risk.

As Pearson approached, a large number of broken, collapsed, and reclining stone pillars appeared in front of him, and the flames continued to burn under the water, neither extinguishing nor spreading. Layers of blue light slammed into each other, flickered, blended into one, and changed into strange colors.

He cautiously continued to sneak for a mile or so, and the stone pillars in front gradually became patchy, surrounding a tall green stone wall, the top of which was covered with a layer of frost.

Has it finally arrived?

Pearson stopped cautiously, the cat squatted under the stone wall, released a black bird, and let it fly in close to the surface of the stone wall.

The black bird flew slowly over the stone wall and circled directly above. Through its vision, he saw a wide circular square. There are trapezoidal steps hanging high on all sides inside the stone wall, which is quite dilapidated and outdated. Various large-scale sculptures are scattered all over the square. Even through the outline of the fragments, one can see the original style.

At the end of the square in front of the square is a well-preserved stone gatehouse with three arched door openings, which are connected to the large palace at the back... When the black bird passed through the stone gate, he vaguely saw the exquisite relief on the inside of the arch, and then entered the palace...

For some reason, as the black bird continued to penetrate, Pearson suddenly had a palpitating feeling, as if a frog was being stared at by a poisonous snake, his heart sinking as if filled with cold lead.

No, I can't leave now... I haven't seen anything yet, I must continue to observe... Before that, I must prepare for the worst!

The assassin suddenly stretched out his hand, took out a pill from the collar under the armor, opened his mouth and swallowed it directly into his belly, and then continued to maneuver and fly forward with the black bird.

The inside of the palace is surrounded by pools and mist, and some kind of creature seems to be rearing underwater. The white walls are shining with a warm luster, and there are many cages hanging empty on the dome... At this moment, the picture suddenly goes dark.

boom--!

With the shaking of the ground and the mountains, a huge dark red throne suddenly appeared in Pearson's eyes. Although the throne was old, it carried a majesty that surpassed the mortal world.

At the same time, he heard a sweet and tender voice, accompanied by deafening thunder, clearly resounding in his ears:

"When you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares into you."

Jacqueline! No, it must be Mistertin!

The assassin took a breath of cold air, and suddenly realized that the figure suddenly turned into a gust of wind and retreated.

Whoosh-!

Countless dark red vines drilled out of the water and woven into a huge network that covered the sky and the earth, covering the thousands of yards outside the palace.
