The Modern Age of the Mysterious

v1 Chapter 425: Breathing is precious

In order to check and balance the opponent, Sean left Olivia behind.

At this moment, Moonlight 1902 was sitting next to Father Taylor and gently patted his back to relieve his cough.

Black Death Doctor Fry deliberately kept a distance from Moonlight and others, and Shadow Holly had already blended into the shadow behind him.

In order to prepare for Holly's sneak attack, Olivia Wind Chime has been watching her every move...

The acid mist in the air became even thicker, and even the moonlight couldn't help coughing. He felt a burning pain in his lungs and trachea.

Taylor's coughing sound became even more terrifying, as if he was about to cough out his internal organs.

The shadow behind Faure looked impatient, and the woman who used the shadow as a mask sneered: "Your captain is playing tricks—

"He is the clown! In order to survive, he chose to escape!"

Moonlight raised his head, looked directly into Holly's eyes, and said word by word: "You don't know Xiao.

"He will never run away."

Shadow sneered: "That sounds nice...

"The rules of the game clearly state that we need to find the Joker and kill him before we can get out of here.

"Then please tell me, as a clown, he is not delaying time, what is he doing?"

Holly has been contacting her captain through Quest Poker.

For some reason, Remnant Max is not afraid of acid fog.

She has been reminding Max to keep up with the "Joker" and kill him when the acid fog is so strong that he is severely weakened!

However, there has been no reply from Max.

"He's not stalling for time." Due to the burning pain in his lungs, Moonlight has lost patience, "You better shut your mouth!"

"Oh?" Holly's figure poked her head out of the shadow, "I think it's you who want to shut up.

"Or, how about I tell you to keep your mouth shut forever?" Holly waved her hand gently, and a few short and long shadows illuminated by the lights peeled off the ground and stood up like black blades.

Olivia and Moonlight both stood up, the former bowed slightly, like a bow ready to go, while Moonlight raised his hands slightly, and his fingertips shone with light.

Seeing such a battle, Black Death Doctor Fulai also stood up straight, and hid his black-gloved hands in his sleeves.

Moonlight felt a little depressed. He really wanted to play "The Darkest" and solve the "trouble" in front of him at once.

However, Sean has already reminded that we must ensure that there is no conflict here.

He could only suppress the anxiety in his heart and deliberately slowed down his speech rate: "Listen - our captain is still together.

"So, so far, we are allies.

"You're not going to be the one to destroy the alliance, are you?"

Holly didn't take back the Shadow Blade, she felt breathless and wanted to make sure she was safe before she fell: "God knows—

"I'd rather be a 'shameful' person than being stabbed in the back by someone else."

Moonlight inhaled slightly—he sensed that conflict seemed inevitable.

From the corner of his eye, he looked at Fagar Taylor, who was half-kneeling on the ground...

"The battle must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise, they will use Taro who is immobile at the moment."

Squinting eyes that were scorched with tears by the acid mist, the moonlight stared at Holly.

The black shadow fluttered, and he was about to raise his hand and press the piano key, when a loud noise suddenly came from the far side of the cave, like a roar of thunder in the cave.

Then, the entire space shook.

"What's wrong?" Holly, who was about to attack, stopped, and she looked up in horror at the top of the cave where the dust had fallen.

The shaking stopped, and the surroundings fell into a dead silence.

In this dead silence, she heard the sound of the mirror door slowly opening behind her.

Turning around, the sound of the wind blowing in the woods outside the door is very beautiful.

Under the crescent moon, cool air poured in, instantly diluting the suffocating acid mist.

"It's solved?" Yueguang couldn't be surprised, so he picked up Father Taro and rushed out of the cave.

A group of people rolled on the grass, breathing in the cool air-they only knew at this moment that the air they were accustomed to was such a wonderful thing.

Shadow Holly didn't speak anymore and hid in the shadows.

Black Death Doctor Fulai took out two bottles of potions and shook them violently. When the yellow-green mist filled the air, he gently said to Moonlight, who had a suspicious expression: "Don't worry, this is a potion that can heal burns."

Foley had an illusory feeling of the rest of his life—when he was in the cave just now, he thought he was doomed.

When the mirror door really opened, he thought he had a near-death hallucination...

It wasn't until he stood on the grass, breathing the sweet air frantically, that he was sure that he had come out.

When the acid fog almost disappeared, Max and Sean finally came out of the hole.

Moonlight stared nervously at Sean's chest, and was relieved when he was sure that his partner's heart was still beating in his chest.

"Xiao, what happened?" Yueguang greeted her excitedly.

With the reflection of the mask on Moonlight's face, he saw his own mask and clothes, and Sean relaxed further. He patted his partner's back: "I'm a little out of breath... I'll talk about it later."

The night is as cool as water, the crescent moon hangs high, and the cool wind blows.

Holly returned to her silent nature. She quietly collected some firewood and raised a bonfire - it was ten o'clock in the evening, and they still had time to rest.

Sitting down beside the warm bonfire and roasting their frightened bodies, the group felt that not only their bodies had recovered a lot, but their moods had also calmed down.

Moonlight took out the stub of the banknote, where 55 points was originally written, the number on it at this moment was - 115.

He bumped into Sean's arm rather excitedly: "60 points per person!

"After clearing the Clown House, one person gets 60 points!"

With the previous 180, the team's total score has reached 420 points.

There are still 230 points left to be promoted to the Castle District.

The first project in the courtyard area allowed the team to get 240, which means that if they did another group project, they would be able to scrape together the points required for promotion.

Sean looked at the brightly lit castle not far above his head, but did not speak.

Before, the central castle was as far away as a mirage~lightnovelpub.net~ and now, it was so close that Sean could even see the light behind the window.

Someone patted him on the shoulder, turned to look, and Max handed another biscuit.

Still a star with blueberries.

Sean took it and put it directly into his mouth.

This time, he chose to take out all the chocolate stock in the invisible stomach bag and distribute it to everyone.

The chocolate wrapped in the esoteric floated in front of the shadow behind Max.

A hand stretched out from the shadow and took the piece of chocolate.

Both the lungs and the body were already feeling comfortable, and I couldn't hold back my curiosity any more. The glass eyepieces on the beak mask were illuminated by the bonfire, and Foley asked, "Tell me, where is the clown and who are you? How did you do it?"

After Sean and Max exchanged glances, the New Testament reporter slowly spoke...
