Chapter 771 Guidance
This is definitely the thing that Milo has encountered in the dreamland that is closest to the image of a female ghost in his concept.
The shape of the long skirt is a bit similar to a wedding dress, but it is not ostentatious, more restrained and simple, and with the gray and blue tones that appear and disappear at that time, it does not affect its appearance at all. Elegant temperament, even though the hem of the skirt is damaged, it gives it another kind of broken beauty.
Probably due to the graceful figure of the person wearing the clothes, like a ballet dancer, or even just glancing at the light gray-blue back in the night, even Milo unconsciously drew up a breathtaking picture in his mind beauty face.
Of course, the reason why I need to think about it is because the head of the floating figure is turbid and the face cannot be seen clearly, and its long hair is as dry and brittle as an old spider web...
…
Otherwise, this is the thing closest to the image of the female ghost in Milo’s concept.
But what made him unpredictable was that the shadow in the long skirt did not show any hostility, at least Milo did not notice it.
It wandered around the camp so lightly, never tentatively getting closer.
…
"Is she here for you?"
I don't know when Yan, who was lying on the shell and drooling, woke up.
Although this guy doesn’t have much knowledge, his insight is quite sharp.
"To be precise, it's for the broken memories of Wolvados." Milo shook his head.
But he is also a little puzzled, that is, in the broken undead memories of Wolvadas that he has, there is no such elegant and sad female ghost, and there is not even anyone with a similar image.
But the strong emotional resonance is there.
Milo can feel the sadness of the other party, but it is obvious that Yan and the others are unaware.
This is a bit similar to how Milo can more easily capture Rebecca's emotions after peeping at Karl, but the shadow of the long skirt gives Milo a different kind of emotion. It feels like its emotions are not as pure as Rebecca's, and are mixed with many complex elements...
There is a feeling that Milo had when he first saw the Black Goat in the Forest.
Yes, there is straightforward love, but it also contains many twisted and pathological elements, as well as confusion and incomprehension. There are too many complicated things that make it continue to be confusing.
The key point is that the object of these emotions is not Milo himself.
How about it feeling like seeing the Black Goat in the forest for the first time? The incarnation of the Supreme Mother Goddess who went crazy and wanted to have a child with Milo, it was not Milo that he "deeply loved".
Sometimes Milo is quite glad that he has accumulated some strength along the way, otherwise he would be afraid that all the goddesses, ghosts and devils would come and "tarnish" him all over.
…
As for the chaotic and broken long dress in front of me, it always has the same posture overflowing with sadness.
And although all the goodwill it shows is not really like Milo, it is certain that through the improvement of some special sensory abilities he inherited from the undead of Wolvados, Milo can interact with it. Some special levels of information exchange.
No need to speak, no need to look at the eyes, just rely purely on perception.
Facts have proved that Wolvados must have had some unknown past with the owner of this dress during his lifetime, and it was an unforgettable one, so that the love between the two parties was still there after their death. .
…
“What did it say?”
Yan leaned behind Milo and asked softly.
At the same time, it was a reminder to Milo not to fall in easily.
Milo shrugged:
"She wants to help us... No, it should be, she wants us to help her..."
"'Her'? Yan noticed the change in Milo's words and reminded: "How can you assume its gender? You can't assume that it is a woman just because it is wearing a skirt."
"Is this the point, buddy?" Milo spread his hands.
“It’s really not the case, cough, you continue.” Yan Yan signaled Milo to continue communicating with Long Skirt.
…
Three minutes later.
"What about this time? What did it say again?" Yan asked again.
"She said she is indeed a woman." Milo replied without thinking.
“Oh~”
…
Another five minutes passed.
“What about this time?”
"She said she could help us lead the way, um..." Milo scratched his head.
“But haven’t the cats already said that the right direction is over there?” Yan pointed to the south.
Rumble...
The next second, a violent roar came from the south.
The night covered the source of the sound, making it difficult to see what exactly happened. However, through the loud explosion and the violent shaking of the ground, Milo and Yan were able to deduce some of the truth.
Moreover, the continuous cracking sound of the earth's crust transmitted through the ground is so clear...
…
Yan looked at his fingers thoughtfully, and he even tried. Then he pointed in another direction, and it turned out that the shocking movement had nothing to do with the finger he just pointed.
When he pointed his finger at Milo, Milo impatiently pulled it away and said: "She said that the fragments of the Mu continent will soon sink one after another... In fact, it has already begun. Sinking.”
"So this is some kind of guidance, right?" Yan turned around and pulled Xiaoyan over from the pool, telling her to stop running around or she would sink to the bottom of the sea and never be found again.
Crack...
As soon as he finished speaking, a very small crack opened in the rock beneath his feet.
The crisp and short sound directly made the atmosphere at the scene tense.
…
This thing would seem strange to anyone. After all, you were sleeping well in the middle of the night, and suddenly something neither human nor ghost came to your door and told you, "This land is about to sink back to the bottom of the sea~", and then really Ground collapse began to occur.
“Are you sure it’s not the fault of the skirt itself!?”
Yan subconsciously tightened his grip on Xiaoyan’s collar, but the latter was quite calm.
“I believe her.”
Milo rarely seems so irrational.
But the senses from Wolvadas told him that the shadow of the long skirt in front of him was telling the truth.
She also told Milo that this was part of the continent of Mu. The reason it climbed above the sea level was the death of Wolvados. This was the civilization on this land that once followed his footsteps. That sincere and noble belief drove the land to squeeze out of the sea after tens of millions of years to mourn the death of the main god.
Theoretically, where Milo and the others are at this moment is the site of a huge memorial service.
But that ancient idea cannot support the ground forever, and it will be exhausted one day.
So this corner of the Mu continent will sink back to the bottom of the sea sooner or later.
But can this really be believed?
Anyway, Milo believed it.
This can be regarded as the corresponding "sequelae" after peeking into Wolvados' undead perspective. Of course, the main reason is that the ground is collapsing far faster than Milo expected.
The source of the first loud noise was at least several kilometers away from them, but the next moment, the ground under his feet began to crack.
This is no joke.
According to the cat navigation chart, if there was no sudden rise of land, this position would be in the middle of the Nanfeng Sea...
"Does this mean we all have to become water ghosts?"
" If I had known better, I wouldn’t have let the cats go back so early.”
…
The ground trembled more and more frequently.
Milo put away the flame hanging in the center of the camp, and finally woke up Freya, who was the sleepiest one.
Then the light gray-blue dress really started to lead the way, leading Milo and the four of them to the place where the collapse had not yet occurred.
Now they are running wildly in a westward direction.
Not only Milo and the others, but also snail people and some highly spiritual marine creatures were seen fleeing towards the west. The animals' natural crisis sensing ability told them that the land in the west is still there at this moment. No collapse occurred.
…
"Running like this is not an option, right? I mean, the entire Mu continent is destined to sink back to the bottom of the sea, isn't it? What should we do when we run to the end?" Yan asked Milo loudly as he ran quickly .
The tone did not hide the doubts about the shadow of the long skirt.
“She said that there is a movable underground space directly under the continent of Mu. A huge underground world similar to Pans Canyon is hidden deep under the seabed of the Nanfeng Sea. We can take advantage of this The land has not completely sunk yet. Find the entrance to the underground world and head to the south through the underground world. "
Fearing that the brain of this guy who is not yet underage is not enough, Milo is still running thoughtfully. In the process, he freed up both hands to give Yan a rough outline of the relationship between "Southern Wind Sea - Sunken Mu Continent - Underground World".
…
The shadow in the long skirt flew extremely fast. Fortunately, none of the four people, Milo, was a normal person. The former Dark Shadow, the former Night Demon, the descendant of the Hidden Man and the Balrog, ran with all their strength, and actually managed to "kick off" the ground. scope of collapse.
It’s a not-so-thrilling escape chase scene.
Finally, the shadow in the long skirt stopped in front of an altar that looked strangely like an ancient ruin.
Everyone in Milo also quickly stopped.
“Whoops, whoops… I’m so exhausted. I wish I could fly.” Freya was dressed roughly. She was obviously not awake yet, and she might not have realized that she was an ancient dragon. .
In fact, if she could fly, she wouldn't need to jump up and down with the weird skirt. She wouldn't be afraid even if the Mu continent really sank...
...
After arriving at the altar, the shadow quickly stepped forward , touching the stone tablet of the altar with the chaotic and invisible hands in his sleeves.
Some obscure runes began to glow coldly on the stone tablet one by one.
Then the shadow in the long skirt began to dance around the altar, as if performing some kind of ritual. However, among the people present, only Milo could hear the scriptures and songs she sang.
At a certain moment, some images stored in the broken memory fragments of Wolvados flashed through his mind.
It was tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of years ago, in another time and space, where races that had not yet been annihilated gathered around the altar, chanted scriptures, and performed Nuo dances as a sacrificial scene, and Milo seemed to be that A member of the long sacrificial procession.
