This situation gave Angel a strong sense of déjà vu.
When he was in the abyss, Toby was contaminated by the aura left by the Doom Patrol, and bad luck happened one after another. It was inexplicably similar to the current situation.
Of course, the misfortune encountered by the Mist Shadow should not come from the Doom Patrol.
Where would that come from?
Is it simply bad luck? Angel doesn't quite believe it.
But if there is external interference, who can interfere with this fate?
Among the extraordinary beings Angel has come into contact with, there seems to be no one other than the Patroller of Doom and the Thief of Destiny... No, there is another one.
Reynolds himself can also affect fortune to a certain extent. He can be called "John's Counterattack", which is not false.
But Reynolds usually has good luck, but now "Reynolds" is having bad luck.
Is this the physical rejection effect caused by the shadow of mist possessing Reynolds?
The so-called rejection can actually be understood as the expulsion of foreign differences by the local will. This is not just an individual, but even the world itself has a similar rejection mechanism. For example, Jon, because of his incompatibility with the local will, led to subsequent
A series of tragedies, this can be regarded as a classic example of rejection.
However, generally speaking, rejection is not unsolvable. As long as your individual strength is strong, you can completely crush the native will.
Moreover, the rejection mechanism is a passive defense, and most people really have no means to improve this passive mechanism. Unless you have similar counterattack means, or you are cheating.
Angel doesn't know if Reynolds has any means to fight back. But if the "hang" that affects fortune really exists in Reynolds' talent, then this "outside of the argument" mechanism may become a self-intentional expulsion.
The main means of foreign exchange.
This method resulted in Reynolds possessing natural attributes that were difficult to possess even if his body was not strong.
Angel didn't know if this guess was correct, but if it was true, the foggy shadow should be feeling very uncomfortable now.
The opposite of good fortune is extremely bad fortune.
The triggering of the agency corridor proved all this.
However, what Angel is a little worried about is that if there is no upper limit to the backlash of this kind of bad luck, even if he really breaks through the shadow of the fog, Reynolds' physical body will probably not get much benefit.
This is a rejection mechanism that hurts the enemy a thousand times and hurts oneself a thousand times.
"I hope that when Reynolds' body is found, he can still maintain a rough human shape, right?" Angel looked at the scorched black mark of skin tissue on the ground and said silently in his heart.
…
Outside the base laboratory.
A huge "buzzing" sound came from a distance, and along with the rolling fog around it, a new round of lawful air waves came.
Ferro, who was talking loudly outside the Flame Law Land, also silenced his voice at this time, frowned, and looked in the direction of the law air wave.
"Why do I feel that the pressure of this air wave is getting stronger and stronger? And... the sound seems to be closer to here."
Ferro felt inexplicably uneasy, always feeling like there were some bad omens.
He lowered his head and looked at a piece of black crystal in his hand. This was given to him by Kanter so that he could crush it when he was in danger. Then Kanter would be able to sense and locate his position and cross the plane gap.
to.
Ferro was thinking whether to crush it now.
At this moment, not only Ferro was hesitating, but No. 03, who was hiding in the core of the weapon, was also hesitating.
She also felt the huge roar, and at the same time, she also heard the screams of the sea beast hidden under the roar. She knew what kind of sea beast it was, and she also knew that the sea beast had very magical characteristics and could definitely become the ultimate goal of the experiment.
Best physique.
However, what she is a little confused about is that although the sea beast is powerful, No. 01 has brought out so many combatants and also taken that precious alchemy tool. Why hasn't it been taken down yet?
Moreover, from the intensity of the lawful air waves and the volume of the roar, it can be seen that the battlefield seems to have been far away from the nest, but is getting closer and closer to the laboratory.
Is there a stalemate, so the chase is dragged to the laboratory? Do you want to use the power of the laboratory?
If No. 01 really encounters difficulties and tries to use the power of the laboratory to target the sea beast, then if he returns to the laboratory now, he will most likely be ambushed by the group of guys outside.
No. 03 understands that we can’t wait any longer.
She must do something, otherwise, let alone waiting for them to save her, No. 01 will be attacked from both sides when she comes back, and her side will definitely fail.
But now Ferro was watching from outside, and Sanders and others didn't show up, so they were probably watching her go out.
No. 03 bit her lip and looked at the bottle in her hand again. The magical core inside still exuded great attraction to her.
Should she eat it? If she eats it, she should be able to resist, but her future will become unpredictable.
If you don't eat it, you won't be able to face the Level 2 True Knowledge Wizard on your own.
No. 03 hesitated for a long time and finally put down the core. She wanted to take a gamble and bet that Sanders was not outside.
If she wins the bet and faces Ferro alone, even if she is temporarily unable to do so, she can rush to the laboratory and activate the biggest mechanism, the alliance between inside and outside.
Even if she loses the bet, as long as they don't kill her as soon as they meet her, she still has a chance to swallow the core.
After making the decision, No. 03 took a deep breath and looked firmly at the blazing flames outside...
…
The laboratory is on the fourth underground floor.
"Here we go again." Nice said softly, feeling the boundless waves of law around him.
The air was very quiet, and it was not until the law air wave dissipated that Nice broke the silence again: "The intensity of this law air wave shows no sign of decreasing, but is rising more and more."
"Close to us." Kanter said directly.
"The lawful air wave, if nothing unexpected happened, was created by No. 01 to deal with the Shiz cubs. Does its continuous approach mean that No. 01 and the others are coming back?" Since learning about No. 01's purpose, he has deduced the situation outside.
, also becomes simpler.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Kant nodded: "He should be returning. It's just that his return this time may not mean victory."
Nice understood what Kanter meant. If he really won, the lawful air wave should also disappear. If it didn't disappear, it meant something went wrong in the war.
Perhaps he underestimated the strength of the Shiz cubs, or perhaps he overestimated his own cooperation.
But no matter why No. 01 and others came back, their return may have become an established fact.
What needs to be solved now is, what should they do?
"We can't wait any longer and leave the laboratory as soon as possible." Kanter said.
This is not just because Ferro is outside and needs to be supported; the most important thing is that if No. 01 really leads the Sheets cub to the laboratory and kills the Sheets cub nearby, what will happen to their group?
It is estimated that everyone will be affected.
If Gruzdaward was furious, it would be absolutely impossible to break down who was with whom among the people present, and he would definitely catch them all in one fell swoop.
Therefore, leaving the laboratory as soon as possible is the best choice.
If that doesn't work, I'll try to stop No. 01 from attacking the Shitz cubs.
After they made their decision, Kanter began to contact Angel, while Nice looked back at Reynolds and found that his soul was a little unstable and his expression was a little dazed.
Nice thought Reynolds was worried about his body and said: "Even if the body is gone, believe me, the soul will live forever."
Reynolds slowly raised his head, and Nice could see from his confused eyes that Reynolds might not have heard their conversation before.
This is indeed the case. Reynolds said with a confused face: "Huh?"
Ness sighed and did not tell Reynolds about their decision. After preparing to make it a foregone conclusion, he directly abducted him: "Nothing... Well, what were you thinking about just now?"
Reynolds: "I, I seem to feel that the connection with my physical body has become weak. In fact, for a period of time before, I couldn't feel it at all. It was like, he no longer existed..."
Ness patted Reynolds on the shoulder: "Don't worry, your body may be dead."
Reynolds: "..."
"You are homeless now anyway and your body is dead. Just join the Soul Valley obediently from now on."
Reynolds: "...I seem to be vaguely aware of it again." It seems that his physical body can still be saved.
Nice wanted to say something else, but Kanter on the other side suddenly said: "There is a situation."
Nice looked over in confusion, only to see Kanter stretch out his hand, and in the middle of his palm, a crystal as black as night appeared.
At this time, cracks appeared on the surface of the crystal. The cracks spread quickly and soon spread throughout the crystal.
"It was Ferro who crushed the crystal I gave him. Something might have happened to him. Let's leave immediately!" Kanter said.
"But Angel's side..."
Kanter: "I have already told Toby and the fire elf about the situation, and they will tell Angel later."
After speaking, Kanter directly crushed the black crystal.
As the crystal powder scattered, a gaping space crack appeared in front of them.
Kanter: "Let's go!"
Nice also nodded solemnly.
At this time, Kanter added: "Remember to replenish the cost of the two Nightmare Crystals to me later."
Nice's expression immediately changed from serious to ferocious.
…
On the other side, Angel, who was on the first floor of the laboratory, also sensed the coming wave of law.
But Angel did not stay as before, but instead sped up.
"Toby, gravity veins." Angel said while moving quickly.
Toby nodded, jumped into the air and flapped his wings. Waves of gray mist immediately dispersed, completely surrounding them.
With the blessing of gravity veins, Angel can move freely in the lawful air waves.
Angel's speed was so fast that the corridors were thrown behind him. He had already sensed that they were getting closer and closer to Reynolds' body.
At this time, if the shadow of the mist is not protected by a power similar to the law's veins, it will inevitably be affected by the law's air waves and stop moving, and this is Angel's opportunity.
However, while Angel was running, he was also thinking about a new problem: Now that we have the opportunity to easily solve the problem, how can we prevent the Shadow of Mist from exploding his head?
After the Fire Scale Familiar was captured by him, Mist Shadow directly exploded his skull. This scene is still vivid in his mind. If Reynolds also had his skull exploded, then even if his body was found, it would be of no use.
Angel thought about it, but still couldn't come up with a perfect solution.
In the end, we can only hope that Reynolds' will will give him a little more strength.
Since it can change its fortune through the rejection mechanism, it is best if the Shadow of the Mist wants to explode its head and make some mistakes so that it cannot explode its head.
With a sense of luck, Angel took advantage of the wave of law to rush through the corridors.
Soon, Angel came to a new corridor again.
All the energy tubes in this corridor have been emptied, and all the sparkling energy liquid inside has disappeared. Instead, the corridor is filled with poisonous mist.
There is no doubt that this is an agency corridor.
Angel stood outside the corridor, looking through the green poisonous mist, he could already see a figure not far away.
Judging from the body outline, he is Reynolds.
However, at this time, "Reynolds" was lying motionless on the ground, looking like a corpse.
"Is he dead?" Dangros' voice rang in his ears.
"I don't know, but it may be that I was trapped by the waves of law and couldn't move." After Angel finished speaking, he walked directly into the corridor.
The poisonous mist in the corridor is not simple. It is not particles floating in the material world, but an energy toxin, so the wind cannot blow it away, and ordinary energy shields cannot defend it.
For apprentices, this energy toxin is an existence that is difficult to contend with. Once it forms a mist in a cramped space, it can easily drive the apprentice into a desperate situation.
But for formal wizards, this kind of poison cannot even break through the mental shield. This is a crushing of energy levels.
Angel walked to Reynolds step by step.
Here, he could clearly see the "miserable" condition of Reynolds.
Burned by fire and frozen, struck by lightning and struck by lightning, every inch of skin was scorched black and red. The black ones were skin fragments, and the red ones were dripping blood and flesh.
His clothes and pants have also completely disappeared, and only some fabric fibers can be found on the ruined skin, indicating that he was once a decent person.
Fortunately, Reynolds at least still looks complete, with no missing arms or legs. However, it is unknown whether the function has been lost.
"...So pitiful." Dangros opened his palm and looked at the body lying on the ground. It had seen Reynolds' intact soul, but when he looked at his broken body, it was really hard to take in his eyes.
This is probably the result of the backlash of bad luck.
Angel was a little hesitant whether to take action against the current Reynolds. He was a little worried that the bad luck would continue to affect his surroundings.
In the end, Angel summoned his magic hand and dragged Reynolds out of the poisonous fog.
Then, Angel quickly tied up Reynolds and took out a magic-patterned leather scroll that banned magic. He wanted to see if he could stop the fog shadow from exploding in the magic vacuum environment.
Soon, the waves of law dissipated.
Angel began to prepare himself.
But after the aftertaste of the lawful air wave disappeared, Reynolds, who was no longer human, still did not move.
Angel hesitated for a moment, then used the power of nightmare to conjure a hand and probed between Reynolds' eyebrows.
