"Well, if you are using your own willpower to break through the power of the magic circle, the result is very likely that not only will the magic circle fail to break through, but you may die in the end." Jiao Ba said simply.
I suddenly felt weak all over my body, and my head was buzzing. Could it be that all the struggles I had done before were in vain?
I laughed at myself, "So, human power still can't compete with these evil ways. What do you want me to do?" I felt that Jiao Ba said this as if there was something different. intention.
"Brother Yi, listen to me. You'd better not get on the boat. Stay and watch Shunzi and the others for now. I'll ask the big man to come back." Jiao Ba held my shoulder and said seriously. .
I knocked his hand off, "What do you mean? Are you afraid that if I get on the boat, I will hold you back?" I was so angry that I still didn't believe Jiao Ba's words. Complying with the power of the magic circle means death. Does resisting also lead to death? If we follow what he said, wouldn't we even have no room to resist?
"Zhongyi, that's not what Jiao Ba means. He is also doing it for your own good..."
"Okay, you don't need to say more. I know my situation very well. I make the decision on my own life. "I interrupted Li Xin directly. No one can say anything about this matter. Even if Jiao Ba's words are true, I can't stop. This is related to everyone's lives.
"Yi Ge, why are you doing this? You can't joke with your own life, right?" Jiao Ba was still trying to persuade me.
"In my opinion, Zhongyi's thing is not as evil as you said. The images he saw were hallucinations, but according to me, maybe they were omens." Chang Shan, who had not spoken yet, said , finally said something that made me feel comfortable.
"Omen? How is this possible? This is not logical at all." Jiao Ba can actually talk about logic. He has become a little different from him. What happened along the way? It can be judged using logic.
"Why not? This person's brain is very delicate. Didn't you also say that Zhongyi's brain was severely stimulated and suffered a certain amount of damage while breaking through the magic circle? It stands to reason that if the brain is severely stimulated, it will He would have become an idiot, but Zhongyi didn't. He just had a headache and could see some images. Isn't this just the opposite?" Changshan said with a smile, looking confident.
"It sounds... it seems to make sense. Maybe it's a sign." Mr. Mai glanced at me and chuckled. This old guy always looks carefree and carefree, and rarely does he. When you are worried.
But I don’t think this is a sign, and of course I don’t believe that I can die from it. Why I have such a severe headache must have something to do with the environment here, or in other words, through this After several mental confrontations, I can resonate with the environment here. This is also some experience summed up from what I have experienced, but I don’t know whether this experience is right or wrong.
Jiao Ba waved his hand for the last time and said, "That's fine, Brother Yi, you can figure it out yourself."
He was a little angry, and finally just let it go, Jiao Ba and Chang Shan The two of them look very similar on the surface, but there are still big differences. Chang Shan is like a master who lives in seclusion, while Jiao Ba is more like a stickman on the street. Although he is very capable, his style of doing things It really looks like a magic stick.
I put my arm around his shoulders and said, "I know you are doing it for my own good, but you also know that it is impossible for me not to get on the boat. This is related to the lives of all of us. We must break the magic circle. And I don’t know what kind of creature the black mist is, but it will definitely be dangerous. I can’t let you all take risks. Can I enjoy it alone?”
“What black mist?” Jiao Ba turned to look at Li Xin.
Li Xin slapped her forehead and said in realization, "Hey, look at my memory. I forget it when I'm in a hurry. When Zhongyi and I were waiting for you, we encountered a strange creature, but... I can't describe its appearance. Apart from a black shadow, there are only a pair of green eyes."
"Green eyes?" Jiao Ba asked with a puzzled look.
"Well, there is only a pair of green eyes. Other than that, it is pitch black, really like black fog." Li Xin nodded and said.
Several of them looked at each other and all shook their heads to express that they were not sure. No one knew what the ghost thing was even if they saw it with their own eyes, let alone hearing it described.
Lao Mai finally said, "Okay, don't worry about that ghost thing for now. Let's take a rest and prepare to get on the boat later."
While resting, I looked at Jenny coldly. , this woman, she gave me chills again, even if we are just teammates, wouldn't you even say a word of concern? Thanks to me risking my life to save her, now that she has Martin by her side, she has become so heartless and unjust, which really disappoints me.
While I was looking at her, the most coincidental thing was that she actually turned to look at me. Our eyes met. She seemed a little embarrassed and just asked softly, "Zhongyi, Are you feeling better now?”
I sneered, “I’m not going to die yet, so I won’t worry about you.”
Jenny's face turned red when I said it, and she didn't answer any more. The rest of us started to discuss some things at this time. Only then did I learn that the two groups, Mai Lao and Chang Shan, had actually searched three ancient ships. .
Mai Lao and his team were the fastest. They had completed the inspection of the two ancient ships. However, during the search of the ancient ships, Mai Lao and his team did not encounter anything, not even the slightest danger. .
We walked so peacefully along the way. There was no power of the magic circle, and there was no virtual space that we had come into contact with. Except for the coldness in the ancient ship, there was nothing else.
I don’t know if this is luck or something else, but it’s incredible. If nothing happened in the first ancient ship, there would be an explanation, but after searching two ships Nothing happened to the ancient ship. I can only say that Mai Lao and the others were really lucky. At least they were much better than me. Especially me, I almost died inside and couldn't get out.
Chang Shan and his group, like us, only searched one ancient ship. When searching the ancient ship, they did not encounter anything too dangerous. It was just the power of the magic circle that could There were disputes between them, but fortunately Chang Shan was there and everything was resolved, so it didn't lead to a big mistake.
In this way, only our group is the most unlucky. Not to mention the two injured and comatose patients, I almost died in the ancient ship. Jiao Ba and Li Xin also suffered all the way. In a word, our group is lucky. The worst, but no matter what, although my luck is a bit bad, at least I have a certain understanding of the power of the magic circle.
I also learned some things from it. On the surface, it seemed that I had suffered a lot, but in fact, I also received some rewards, especially the illusory happiness. It is still unforgettable to me. I really I hope I can bring that kind of happiness into reality, but unfortunately, everything is just a dream.
Mr. Mai and the others were also very surprised by our experience. It stands to reason that the hexagonal array is all integrated, but why is it that only our group has suffered such excellent treatment? But the two groups of them were safe and sound, especially Mai Lao and the others. They had safely searched the two ancient ships along the way. Although they were all safe, they found nothing, which was equivalent to no progress.
"It's really strange. Our journey is safe and sound, but you are in danger. We still want to encounter something. Although this journey is safe, we are always worried. After all, It’s a bit too abnormal,” Mr. Mai said in confusion.
I sneered and said, "Don't mention it, isn't it nice to be safe? We have suffered so much along the way and almost died there. If I hadn't been lucky, I wouldn't have been able to come back. "When I think of the scene at that time, it is still fresh in my memory. Without the help of that ancient woman, I would be wandering in that wasted space forever.
Mr. Mai patted my arm and said, "You need to be in danger to get information. At least now we know how to break the barrier of this magic circle. Thank you, Zhongyi, for your hard work."
"Don't say that, Everyone is working hard. I just met him. If it were anyone else, it would be the same. By the way, when are we going to set off?" I looked at Mr. Mai and asked.
"If you have no problem, let's set off now."
It turned out that they were waiting for me after a long time. After all, my forehead was injured, and they probably wanted me to relieve the pain. .
"It's okay. This is just a skin injury. Let's go." I said nonchalantly. This small injury is nothing on the battlefield. Even if the bullet penetrated the calf, it would still be a big deal. Just keep moving forward.
"Okay, everyone, get everything, we are ready to board the ship."
This time, we all searched the ancient ship together, the purpose was to find the six coffins, and finally burned them Coffin, so as to break the barrier of this hexagonal circle.
Judging from the previous search results, it is impossible for Mai Lao and the others to have coffins in the two ancient ships they are responsible for. They have searched them thoroughly and there is nothing on the ancient ships. Mai Lao's work is still relatively stable. Yes, there shouldn't be any blind spots missed. From this point of view, these two ancient ships can be eliminated.
Chang Shan and the others have searched an ancient ship, and the investigation was very thorough. Chang Shan said frankly that there will be absolutely no mistakes. On the other hand, Jiao Ba, Li Xin and I have also searched an ancient ship, so we said , these two ancient ships can also be eliminated, so now, there are only two ancient ships left that have not been searched. One is the ancient ship we are searching in front of us, and the other is the second ancient ship Changshan and his team are responsible for. From this, it can be seen that these six coffins should be among these two ancient ships. Maybe there were a few placed on each of the two ships, or maybe they were in an ancient ship.
