Chapter 512 Negotiation
Although I don’t know exactly how the Thinking Eye reached contact with the temple in the dreamland, Daisy did it.
Milo only saw her leaning over the edge of the worship pit and praying for a short time from a distance. Not long after, the layers of shadow barriers appeared above the ancient altar. .
Perhaps because of Joan's previous experience, this time the knight figure on the other side of the barrier did not dare to step into the waking world without a care in the world.
Not even projection.
Because the other knights except Jon Byrne were killed by projections last time, Milo has proven that he has the ability to kill the opponent's true form through the barrier, so this time the knights of the temple behaved even more It makes sense to be conservative.
The knight figure on the other side of the barrier watched for a long time without stepping over.
But Daisy just raised her head calmly, waiting for the messenger sent by the temple to "pluck up the courage".
…
In the shadow in the distance, Milo raised his hand and put his hand on Dillashaw's shoulder. The figures of both parties were soon shrouded by the black substance pouring out from behind.
There is no way. The Golden Law Temple suffered too much last time. The destruction of the Knights may only be regarded as a shame, but a law blade that was carefully nurtured and cultivated was killed before it could grow up. In the cradle, this is equivalent to destroying the resources accumulated by the temple for at least a hundred years, including various treasures and the faith of the people of the entire Broken Floating City.
......
After watching through the barrier for nearly ten minutes and confirming that the figure of the killing god was not seen on this side of the world, they began to try to contact the barrier.
That cautious energy is exactly the same as when you stand in the shower room to test the water temperature in winter.
Although the retaliatory actions carried out by the people in the temple were very cruel and decisive, they directly cut off the faith of the people in this country and left them to fend for themselves, and even almost wiped out the Red Witch. .
You must know that Milo has never mentioned his relationship with the Red Witch to anyone. The definite guide relationship between them is actually mysterious and mysterious. Even Milo himself does not fully understand it, but it is so vague. Every relationship can be captured and retaliated by the temple. One can imagine how vengeful the shadows attached to the golden tree will be.
Because of this, Milo will be extremely vigilant about the figure that steps over the barrier next.
The one who steps over this time will definitely not be the useless knights like last time.
Just as Milo said in advance, if the person who crosses over does anything bad to Daisy, he will abandon the entire plan and execute the person who comes there. This is non-negotiable.
……
What emerges from the interface barrier with shadow superposition is still the projection body.
It was a slender shadow covered with light and close-fitting armor. Because his body was too slender, the plan seemed to be distorted in the reflection and the effect was too elongated, making it a little less like a human form. It's more like a vine or dead branch hanging from the golden tree.
It has a mist-like cloak on its back. The cloak is connected to the hood on its head. It is vaguely visible when it flutters. When it disappears, it will also take the covered figure with it. It became illusory together, and seemed to be some kind of material with invisible properties. This made its originally illusory figure look like the moon in the water, and it was instantly blurred when a gust of wind blew by.
The tall and thin shadow completely stepped over from the other side of the barrier. Its shadow was too illusory, but from Milo's perspective, he could still confirm the other party's female identity from some tiny details.
It is not as upright a knight as Jon Byrne, but more like an assassin.
This can be seen from the ferocious short blade that exudes the aura of death covered under its cloak. This is the only object on its body that clearly shows its outline, because it is not a projection, it is a weapon. The true form has arrived in the waking world.
You can imagine how afraid the temple is of Milo. The person coming over is a projection, but the weapon in his hand is the original body.
The short blade that can drag out scarlet afterimages in the air with the slightest movement has a terrifying arc and a vicious hook structure like bone spurs. You can't even define it as a dagger or a hook. .
The only thing that is certain is that the aura of death exuding from it is formed by the accumulation of fresh lives, and they all must be at the level of superiors... The one who stepped over this time is really not Qiong. ·A kid like Byrne who has never seen the world can compare.
The black knife alone is enough to explain the problem.
......
However, the barrier blocks part of the opponent's field of vision. Even if the projection body has arrived, Milo, who has escaped into the shadow state, will still not be able to detect Milo as long as he does not get too close. specific location.
Perhaps Octavia's psychic intuition will tell it that there is danger around it, but that's all.
Furthermore, the entire waking world is full of dangers for it.
…
“Are you sure that thing really can’t see us?”
Dillashaw, who was covered by Milo’s shadow, asked Milo in a low voice.
“There’s no need to speak in a low voice, it can’t hear you.” Milo waved his hand.
“Okay, I want to ask, can the silver gradient you brought really guarantee the safety of the Eye Saint?”
Dillashaw obviously felt the pressure of the creature crossing over from the other side of the barrier.
In comparison, the protrusion of the Wendigo and Marshall lying at Daisy's feet is negligible.
Even at the moment when the projection body holding the black knife appeared, the big bug that had eaten the body of the golden tree in the worship pit hid in the deepest part of the ground and remained silent.
…
“Silver Gradient Layer?” Milo shook his head: “You need to supplement your basic biological knowledge.”
Dillashaw was not as reassured as Milo. He pointed at the temple messenger in the distance and said:
"I mean, that guy came with a knife. No matter how you look at it, he has bad intentions..." "
However, before Dillashaw finished speaking, he saw the other hand of the black knife projection reaching back to the side of the barrier, pulling a rope made of vines, and pulling out a car. A vehicle pulled by two giant elk.
"You can't say that someone has bad intentions, right?" Milo said, spreading his hands.
……
On the altar in the distance.
The elk’s front hooves stepped on and rubbed the air, making a squeaking sound.
Daisy seemed to have had a brief negotiation with the shadow holding the black knife, using a special method that could not be detected. Even Milo could not eavesdrop.
But it is not difficult to speculate that Daisy has obtained the consent of the other party and can enter the Dreamland Temple in a physical way. The elk cart pulled by the other party should have this function. And she is currently persuading the other party to let her bring two "harmless" "little pets" with her.
