Carrying the metal box on his back, Shade got into a carriage at Saint-Derain's Square to the southern edge of Tobesk, changed to a carriage that could go out of the city, and spent a lot of money to persuade the driver to set off for the countryside further south.

Judging from the map, although the area of ​​[Dark Realm] has expanded a lot overnight, it is still not a short distance from the city of Tobesk. After comparing with the voice of the woman in his heart, Shad decided to go to Bode Village in the south of Tobesk.

It's not because that village is the closest to the disappearing area, but because judging from the terrain, if you go forward, you will encounter the checkpoint of the Orthodox Church.

Due to the characteristics of the [Dark Domain] and the fact that the incident had just happened all morning, the disappearance of such a large area did not arouse the attention and awareness of the locals.

Everything points to a very peaceful Saturday morning, in and out of town. Ordinary people can't perceive anything until the darkness strikes. Xia De even chatted with the coachman, claiming that the coachman who has lived in Nancheng for thirty-two years has not noticed any changes in the terrain outside the city and the loss of a large area in his memory.

This change in perception is terrifying.

The driver put Xia De at the entrance of Bode Village, and the stranger's visit to this unremarkable village naturally aroused the curiosity and vigilance of the villagers.

This village is unremarkable, and the low-rise houses are connected together to form a simple human settlement. The buildings are mostly made of ash, stone and straw. Compared with the city, which is only half an hour away by car, the time here seems to have been regressed back to before the age of steam.

But it's not true to say that, because Xia De still saw traces of steam pipes and gas pipes. But the two pipelines were only distributed along the central axis of the village, and did not go deep into the village. This meant that only a very small number of people in this village with more than 30 households could enjoy the convenience of steam and gas.

There is a local sheriff in the village. Hearing that a stranger came, he dutifully came to inquire about Xia De's purpose of coming here.

Xia De originally wanted to confuse a few words about his identity, and then left the village and walked south. But thinking that starting from the city of Tobesk to the south, there is a high probability that he will pass through this village, so after introducing himself as the writer John Watson, he pretended to inadvertently ask the bearded sheriff:

"My friend set off first, and he should have passed this village too. Excuse me, are there any strangers passing by here today?"

The sheriff with the police star pinned to his chest was curious about the writer in front of him carrying a metal box to collect materials, but he still enthusiastically answered the city dweller's question:

"I'm sorry sir, no outsiders have passed the village since this morning. But around eight o'clock, the little boy from the Osas family was urinating in the field and saw a large horse-drawn carriage from the Peace Church passing by on the dirt road outside the village. You Is your friend with someone from the Orthodox Church?"

In this way, Xia De understood that the loss of control in [Dark Realm] should have happened after seven o'clock this morning, because it happened to be about an hour from the city to this neighborhood. The appearance of the Orthodox Church team represented that the out-of-control relics were barely within the controllable range, but there was no need to worry that the darkness would swallow Tobesk in a few hours.

"It's good to see the last incident of God's descent, at least it made the Orthodox Church more vigilant."

After leaving Bode Village, Xia De continued southward, running along the dirt road in the deserted wilderness with the metal box on his back. Although the area swallowed by darkness itself disappears, it can be entered through a specific method. And if ordinary people get into it by mistake, it is almost impossible to come out again. Luvia had already figured out how to enter the relic, but what Xia De really needed to worry about was being discovered by the church.

In the 18th minute after leaving Bode Village, he saw a small group of cavalry wearing Royal Army uniforms and riding horses from a distance. After making a detour to avoid it, we continued to move forward, and soon encountered an infantry squad composed of about 15 people, carrying long guns and patrolling along the dirt road.

Still avoiding it by detour, and relying on [Echoes of the Past] to know that the Tobesk City Hall has closed the nearby area on the grounds that the Royal Army is experimenting with a new type of steam cannon in front, and no one is allowed to enter.

This once again shows that everything is still under control, and the short-term loss of control of the relic is likely to be an accidental phenomenon caused by the appearance of the chosen one.

Shade's luck today was not bad. After meeting the patrollers for the second time, when he continued forward for half a mile (about 800m) to reach the edge of the [Dark Realm], he only found traces of divine magic rituals, but did not bump into the Orthodox Church. team.

After all, the perimeter of the disappearing area is so large, even if the church gives up defending the city and rushes out, it is impossible to achieve ten steps per post.

"It should be around here."

Stay away from the city, and stay away from the mist over the city. The sun at noon in late summer was equally dazzling. Xia De looked at the map in his hand and compared the meanings of the magical ritual runes on the ground to confirm that he had not gone the wrong way.

Standing on the country road with cow dung lying in front of him, he couldn't see any darkness around him. But in fact, this small road should branch off about five meters below Xia De's feet, instead of being a straight road like it is now.

"Okay then, the adventure is about to officially begin."

Xia De held the straps on his shoulders with both hands, the life ring slowly emerged on his back, and the [Time and Space] core spirit runes bloomed with brilliance:

"Spatial Stability Halo!"

The invisible fluctuations centered on Shad and spread in all directions. Using thaumaturgy with the attitude of the life ring fully displayed, the effect of thaumaturgy is maximized.

With the flow of the spirit in the body and the fluctuation of the elements, some fluctuations gradually appeared in Xia De's field of vision, as if the scenery reflected in the water became blurred due to the stirring of the water surface.

Some black mist was finally noticed. Xia De knew that it was his limit to barely interfere with the angel-level relics, so he did not continue to use thaumaturgy to try to expel these unstable spaces, but ran forward quickly, and then Leap forward sideways—

Click!

He felt as if he had smashed an invisible mirror, and then his whole body seemed to jump into the ice bank storing ice cubes from under the sun.

But what was more serious was that darkness surged up all of a sudden, covering all the sights in front of us. Xia De, who lost his vision, couldn't immediately perceive the existence of the ground, so when he landed, he thought he had jumped into the abyss. He lost control of his balance and fell to the ground.

First, he sensed the ground with his sense of touch, and as the silver halo on his body spread out little by little, it barely illuminated the solid ground below him. At the same time, the bone-piercing chill slowly flowed through the whole body.

This is the power bestowed on Shad by Professor Augustus. Although the source of the priest's power is still unclear, the chill in his body does expel the colder feeling brought about by the surrounding environment, and dispel the almost uncontrollable feeling after entering the darkness. Drowsiness, and the strong mental pressure brought about by the deep darkness.

It's just that although this power is miraculous, it still cannot completely resist the negative effects brought by the angel-level relic. Xia De felt that even if he was standing still, his physical strength and body temperature were rapidly losing, and the recovery speed of his spirit was at least twice as slow as that of the normal area. The feeling of headache, nausea, and numbness all over the body became clearer and stronger little by little. This space obviously had a strong malice towards Xia De, a guy who can shine by himself.

After being protected by Priest Augustus, the feeling at this time is much better than when he broke into the fishbone pirate ship. And since there is no external manifestation of "divine afterglow" on his body, it means that the angel-level relic [Dark Realm], which is the devil's lair, has nothing to do with the old gods.

"This is the best news so far."

The surroundings were extremely quiet, but when Xia De got up, he clearly felt that there was something peeping at him in the impenetrable darkness. Maybe it's just a tiny creature, but maybe it's something huge like a giant crouching in front of it.

He squinted his eyes to look into the darkness, but he couldn't see through the darkness behind. I can only suspect in my heart that I am looking at something, which makes my heart feel more and more hairy.

Shivering suddenly, Xia De closed his eyes and took a deep breath, adapting to the weird environment around him.

After adjusting his mood, he called out to Yinyue softly, but the moonlight blooming from his fingertips could not illuminate his eyes at all. The area covered by the moonlight was only about the size of a fingernail. Even though the icy chill in his body rushed into his eyes, Xia De could barely see a small area around him, but the surrounding area still seemed to be wrapped in a thick black mist, and his vision was only a little better than the state of "not seeing his fingers". .

"The angel-level relic is really extraordinary, but fortunately, I have prepared for it."

He rummaged through his pocket to find the viscous bright yellow oil-like medicine prepared by an ophthalmologist, carefully dripped it into his eyes, blinked his eyes, the darkness in front of him gradually melted away, and the area covered by his vision finally seemed to be in the sky. In the darkest night.

Although this is still inconvenient to move, at least there will be no more trouble in close combat.

He touched the items on his body to prevent losing things when he fell down just now. Then he looked behind him, of course the heavy box was still there, but the box itself was emitting a faint golden light.

The light is not too strong, but Xia De is still very happy to see a stable light source other than himself in the dark.

Except for the protection of other powers like Shad, or the amulets provided by the church, ordinary people will fall into a deep sleep in the [Dark Realm], gradually assimilated in the darkness, and melt in unknown corners.

If you carefully observe the surrounding air, you can see black shadows walking back and forth that are difficult to detect. These are the last traces left by the people who melted in the [Dark Realm]. It can be said to be the old traces of history recorded by the darkness.

As for the core of [Dark Realm], that is, the place where Ivan Darkness may hold the ceremony of the Chosen One, Shad actually knows ~lightnovelpub.net~ as long as he knows the specific terrain of the disappearing area, and then finds the center in the space Just click.

But he couldn't rush directly to the core of the relic, not only because he alone would not be able to deal with the many demons in the darkness, but also because there was no "balanced" chosen Iluna, Shad knew he couldn't beat Da knys.

"Here first."

He took out his notebook and looked at the simple map he had drawn. The place illuminated by the shimmering finger is Forrest Town. This town itself is not unusual, but before the scope of the Dark Realm expanded early this morning, most of the prophets from the Prophet Association were stationed here. Luvia sent In the last letter that came, he also said that he got in touch with Iluna who went deep into the front line in this town.

"Meet Luvia first and then make plans."

Thinking about the next plan, he took back his notebook and walked deeper into the darkness.
