Chapter 980: The Secret Realm Beyond This World (Part 2)
Living in a secret forest outside the world, in the confusion of having no choice but to survive in the wilderness,
Finally I heard the clear and cheerful voice.
Looking at the girl who jumped down from an old tree with fallen leaves, she was probably about seventeen or eighteen years old.
If you have less, you will look immature, if you have more, you will not be agile enough.
It gives people such a wonderful impression.
The clothes are unlike any dynasty in history, but definitely not modern. The cloud-white sleeves are elegant and easy to move, and are decorated with unusually exquisite Huasheng red brocade.
What shocked Fangran the most was that this kind of clothes looked like a perfect fit on her.
But as soon as the other party appeared, he looked at himself up and down, as if he finally saw something he had been curious about for a long time, and wished he could see some flowers in himself.
"Um...are you...?"
A little unable to bear the sight, Fangran looked at her and asked tentatively,
"You are Fangran. You are coming to Midnight soon, right?"
But in response to his question, the girl just responded with a smart smile, and Fangran had no choice but to nod in reply.
"Ah, yes, I accepted the invitation from a senior. Grandma Shui sent me here."
"Hey, Grandma Shui..."
Listening to the title mentioned in Fang Ran's words, the girl seemed to think about it for a moment and nodded her head clearly, and then spoke in a brisk tone again:
"Anyway, you're going to Midnight, right? I'll show you the way."
After saying that, without waiting for Fangran's response, she turned around and walked in one direction.
Fangran had no choice but to follow quickly.
Follow the mysterious girl in white and red brocade, walking in the huge forest of sunshine and tree shadows,
The strongest feeling is that first of all, wearing a jacket and trousers, my style is simply out of place...
"Um...isn't this...midnight?"
Fangran tried to talk to her and asked, looking up at the secret scenery of ancient trees. He didn't know how to express his surprise, so he could only ask vaguely,
"If you are referring to what the outside world calls Midnight, of course it counts here, but strictly speaking, this should be the edge of Midnight Mountain,"
Walking briskly in the forest, I immediately understood what Fangran meant. There was a lightness in the girl's words, as if she had thought of a very appropriate explanation.
She gave an example and said with a smile:
"The yard is like the yard around your home."
courtyard...
She glanced at the secret forest behind her where she had lost sight of where she came from, and was silently ashamed of her example, but she roughly understood what was going on.
Fangran couldn't help but look at her and continued to ask:
"Then why was I transported to a place like this?"
"Outsiders can only enter Midnight with permission, and everything except themselves will be blocked,"
He jumped up and picked a scarlet wild fruit from a passing tree. It seemed that he wanted to pick it off and taste it but only took one bite.
The girl walked leisurely in front, making people wonder if she was leading the way properly.
But it was true that after she appeared, all the animals that had only heard her voice but had disappeared ran out one after another.
"The reason why you were teleported to this place is probably a small error caused by something else coming in with you but not being rejected."
Watching her casually feeding the fruit she just ate to those 'beautiful animals' that she couldn't even recognize.
Fangran recalled some confusion when he stepped into the teleportation:
"But I'm on my own..."
"(°?°*) La Meow!"
"So it's you!!!"
Hearing the cry of F-233 above his head, Fangran immediately reacted and grabbed it, rubbing it hard with his teeth itching.
Knowing the reason why he was thrown into the forest, he looked at the mysterious girl in front of him who was leading the way.
That kind of lightness and liveliness that is unique to this age reveals an indescribable mystery.
Curious about her identity in Midnight, Fangran wondered if she was a descendant or disciple of some Night Watchman, but he was not sure if such a relationship existed in Midnight.
Embarrassed to ask directly, he changed direction.
"Um...is there anyone else besides the night watchman at midnight?"
"Of course there is. After all, the Night Watchman is the one who represents the gentleman's will. Naturally, there will be predecessors who have given up their responsibilities and lived in seclusion in their old age, and younger generations who are not Night Watchmen."
When Fangran asked about this, the girl in red brocade and white dress under the shadow of the sunny tree explained with a smile, but her next sentence was slightly lonely and her tone was lighter,
"But now almost only the older generation is left here..."
But before Fang Ran noticed it, she turned around with a swivel of her skirt and smiled nimbly:
"Anyway, you'll know what it's like when you go see it later."
And then this moment,
Fangran saw that the field of vision in front of him became brighter, and the forest he had just walked for so long without leaving had come to an end.
"Here we are."
Hearing the excited voice of the girl leading the way, Fangran raised his eyes and looked...
"Eh?"
Unexpectedly, there was only an open space in front of us, and the cliff next to it was thousands of feet steep.
"People from the outside who want to go to Midnight need to pass a trial,"
When Fangran was wondering what was going on, the girl in front of him clapped her hands, and the sound of the lift being released came from the cliff.
A five- to six-meter-tall giant machine statue carrying a sharp bronze ax appeared with a rumble!
"First you have to defeat it."
Trial?
Listening to her sudden words, I thought that this was a normal session. Looking at the C-level machine giant in front of me, my eyes flashed with eagerness to take on the challenge.
"Please be in advance for this kind of thing..."
Facing the giant machine statue that roared towards me like a high-speed truck, Fangran swiped the broken silver dragon teeth in his hand.
"By the way, maybe you noticed it too,"
But at this moment, the girl in a red dress with embroidery on her white head showed a sly smile like a fox deliberately mischievous.
"The space where Ziye is located is special. The effects of spells, movements, and most abilities will be suppressed to 10%."
Then you should have said it earlier!!!
Looking at the colossus of a mechanism charging towards him with his giant bronze ax raised high, as if he was about to chop him down like firewood, he found that his abilities had 'shrunk'.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Fangran was almost chopped down and hurriedly avoided it...
...
After being chased and chopped down by a five- to six-meter machine giant with a giant ax for half an hour,
Finally defeated it with difficulty,
"There are various kinds of fish that live here, one of which is called the Ice Spirit Fish. Its surface is smooth and cold and can emit cold air. It has a beautiful ice scale on its body,"
Fangran looked at the bottomless cold pool surrounded by rocks this time, and listened to the relaxed and freehand explanation of the girl next to him.
"Your trial is very simple, just catch one."
I had experience catching fish in the Arctic, so I thought it wouldn’t be difficult this time and just got into the water with a sigh of relief...
Just when Fangran failed for the first time and was whipped directly to the shore by a tail, the girl who was throwing the fruit in her hand added rather irresponsibly when she heard that she picked the fruit from nowhere.
"Yeah, the Ice Spirit Fish is about three feet long, so it's easy to identify."
So you should have said this earlier!!!
...
After fighting with the nine-meter-long 'big fish' in the water for an hour, I finally managed to win with difficulty again by relying on the [Shadow Card] and [Freeze Card].
But when he was released, he was still covered in water...
"There is a kind of green beast on the mountain road near here. It is a small four-legged beast with green hair on its body. It is very light and fast. It can climb rocks and walk on walls."
Following the girl in a bright dress, who was probably on the way up the mountain this time, Fangran pointed at something nearby and said irrationally:
"You have to catch it and grab some of its hair."
Then it took Mullin half an hour to find the target just by relying on the sea base.
Fangran saw that particularly beautiful little blue beast. The moment he saw it, it disappeared with a whoosh before the [Dispelling Card] could be activated!
"Ah~ By the way, Qing Xing Beast is wary by nature and will run away if it detects any disturbance."
Fang's face was expressionless and unwavering, so I knew it.
Use the super weakened version of [Fantasy Card] and [Static Card], plus the vision assistance of Haiji and Mullin, to complete the goal with difficulty again and again.
Going back to the initial walk up the mountain, Fangran watched as he was busy working.
The girl in the red brocade and white dress was crouching on the rock, approaching quietly like a cat, and then...
"I'll catch you!"
"La meow!"
The black cat ball flashed upward out of thin air, causing her to pounce into the air.
щ(°Д°#щ)What are you two doing while others are busy!!
...
"There will be spiritual cranes by this lake, gentle and docile relatives..."
"There is a kind of dew fruit at the bottom of this valley, and dew condenses on the surface..."
"There is... under this cliff..."
...
Starting from the forest, it feels like you are going up a mountain,
But along the way, he went around east and west, following the girl who led him, and in the endless trials, he saw all kinds of wonders and wonders in the "courtyard" at midnight.
Fangran marveled at where this 'secret realm' was.
How could there be such an incredible place...
Withstanding the impact of the huge waterfall, he climbed up from below. Looking at La Miao who was still full of energy next to him, Fangran spitted and couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart.
It is indeed a trial at midnight...
If I weren't capable enough, I would probably be in trouble even if I replaced Osphia in the C-level...
"Hey, you're pretty good."
Maintaining the same posture as he had just climbed up, looking at the corner of her skirt at the upper edge of her field of vision, Fangran just shook Shui's hair and spoke softly.
"What's next?"
"Hehehe, it's really interesting."
Hearing him ask this question, he burst into laughter like a clear spring. He had been observing Fangran for several hours. Seeing him not complaining actually made him feel a little happy.
The girl smiled brightly and expressed her feelings happily.
"The trial is over."
"Eh?"
Hearing her sudden words, Fangran raised his head in surprise. In the light that was almost dusk without realizing it, Fangran looked up in surprise.
I could only vaguely see her smile.
"Young man, welcome to Midnight."
Then he was stunned for a moment, then stood up and looked up to see everything in front of him clearly,
Looking at the ancient buildings like palaces and pavilions, distributed on the entire mountain peak, shimmering in the rays of light and mist, they are like the misty fairyland in the legendary scrolls.
