Chapter 2399: Smiling
Looking at the body on the ground under the small light in the room, several people swallowed hard the saliva in their throats. Dong Saer inspected the six corpses on the ground and said: "They have been dead for at least three days."
"Three days? But just now..." Ermuda was a little excited, and he was too scared to say what he said next.
Scar was also sweating coldly and asked: "What was the cause of their death?"
Don Sal shook his head slightly: "It's strange, maybe they died of starvation."
"Starve to death! This..." Several pairs of eyes in the room stared at a few bundles placed on the wooden rack near the window. One of them opened, and some food such as dry biscuits and hard bread slipped out of the bag. , and it got moldy.
Ada quickly put on the helmet she was holding in her hand and asked the red dwarf Ermuda: "Do you know what is going on?"
Ermuda's head shook like a wave. Like a drum, the fear is palpable.
Scar also cast a questioning look at Bimoye. Bimoye shook his head and said he didn't know.
Mio was leaning against the door outside the wooden house, listening to the people inside. He got behind Scar in fear, pulled the corner of his clothes, and said in a fearful voice: "Boss, let's go. It’s so eerie, I’m scared.”
Scar nervously held the weapon and nodded: "Let's go, let's go now. Don't look at Dong Saar, everyone is leaving."
Don Saar and everyone exited the room, and Irina summoned the dragon After getting out, everyone packed up their cars and horses and evacuated this place.
Walking on the road, Luo gave Irina a thumbs up: "Irina, you performed so well just now. Everyone was frightened, but you were the only one who was calm and composed."
Yi Lina forced a smile and secretly said: "I He is someone who is protected by a dragon. Of course he has to show his composure in order to convince the crowd in front of the newcomers. In fact, I can hardly hold back my urine now. Let’s wait until we are in a safe place to deal with it.”
"Ah~!"
A long time has passed, but the surrounding atmosphere still makes people feel strange. I don't know if it is for psychological reasons or if something is really weird. Cole found that Dean beside her was holding a watch and kept typing: "What's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing, my watch is broken and won't run." He tapped the back of the watch with his fingers. I shook it hard again, but it just didn't return to normal.
My companion took out his watch and looked at it: "Hey, my pocket watch is not gone either. Is it broken too?"
When everyone heard this, they all took it out out of curiosity. They looked at their own watches, and then they found everyone's watch face and exclaimed.
The faces of Bimoye and Afuluo changed color, and Keer said: "Oops, maybe we all fell into the time vortex without knowing it?"
"Time vortex is impossible. Is this some mysterious magic? Who wants to harm us?"
Aphro said: "Miss Ke'er, you are making a fuss. I don't agree with the time vortex statement. But we are definitely in a dangerous situation."
"What do you think is going on?" Cole asked.
Aphro couldn’t answer.
At this time, someone took out an hourglass and said, "Look, the sand is still moving, which means time is still running."
"The sand flows because of gravity and has nothing to do with time. The hourglass is a timekeeping tool and does not represent time." Jasmine said to wake up this somewhat stupid fellow traveler.
"Is it possible that the magnetic field has affected our clocks?" Ada said: "There are quarries in the Naj Valley. The information collected says that there are mines there, right?"
< br>Irina said: "That is a sulfur mine, which has been abandoned long ago. But the magnetic field is very It makes sense, maybe the magnetic field caused everyone's watches to malfunction." Ke'er, who was covered in armor with only one eye exposed, disagreed: "The magnetic field can explain the malfunctioning of the watches, but it cannot explain what happened to us before." She thought for a while. I couldn't figure out why, so I could only wait blankly for other people to answer.
We couldn’t figure out what to talk about, so we could only speed up our pace. Although we were very tired, we wanted to leave here as soon as possible. But something happened that made their mood sink to the bottom. They once again came to the Taniguchi logging camp, and once again saw the row of wooden houses and the six bodies that had fallen inside the wooden houses.
"We turned back again!"
"This is impossible. We were obviously walking in the same direction, how could we come back to where we were?"
Someone said firmly: "It must be. Magnetic field, I heard that magnetic field can make people lose their sense of direction unconsciously. Our brain must be affected by magnetic field, coupled with the dark environment. There was no clear reference in the forest, so I turned back."
"People can be affected, but Irina's wing-eared red dragon will also be affected by magnetic fields? It won’t be disoriented by the magnetic field.”
“That’s not certain. Do you think the dragon will not be affected?”
Scar interrupted their argument: "Okay, you don't have to argue. It doesn't matter whether the dragon is fainted or not, we have to go out. Now my heart is getting more and more uneasy."
Bimoye thought for a while , said: "I used magic to leave straight marks on the ground. , let’s go in a straight line.”
“Okay.”
Everyone chose a direction and walked straight in line. Bimoye left long straight lines in front and behind. of people confirmed that the line segments were not distorted.
But after walking again, they still walked back to the Taniguchi logging camp, and everything became suspicious.
During this break, it was difficult for everyone to fall asleep. Everyone was restless and wanted to escape from this place immediately. Scar couldn't sleep for a long time. He got up and said to Bimoye and other key members: "We will try two more times after the break. If we can't leave, we will have to find out the cause of this weirdness. And this weirdness is likely to be in the Naj Valley. "
Irina said scared: " Deputy Scar, we won’t die here like those six people, right?”
“It’s strange, why would they starve to death when they have food?”
Dong Saer suddenly ran into the wooden house and used a knife to dissect the six people.
“What are you doing?”
Dong Saer opened the stomachs and intestines of the two corpses and said: "There is indeed no food in their stomachs."
"The six of them really starved to death?"
Don Saer was silent Silently, it seems that it is not certain.
"It's so strange that they died. If there were people in the valley, would those people have also suffered an accident?"
Scar had a headache and waved his hand: "I won't say anything anymore. I said, let’s take turns to rest and refresh ourselves.”
The night was quiet, with only a few sounds in the forest. This journey of searching for the thing to save the world has just begun, but something very weird happened. Everyone felt uneasy and fell asleep in fear, hoping that everything would return to normal when they woke up. Until they heard some sounds coming from the road leading to the valley, everyone woke up one after another. They saw a large group of people talking and laughing at the entrance of the valley, walking out happily, and everyone's face was filled with joy, as if Something great happened. It's just that the people in the Bloody Mercenary Group couldn't laugh. Not only could they not laugh, they were very flustered...
