Chapter 31 Cruel Memory
"Elys.Ww W.ΔBiQuGe.CN" I patted my backpack and called.
"What are you doing... We're just going to bed." A ghost girl came out and looked at me sadly.
"What day has it been since we arrived in Wanye Kingdom?" I asked.
"Ah, I think about it... we took a day to go, and then... well, it's the third day we've arrived in Wanye Country." The girl pulled her finger and said with certainty.
"We have been walking in this forest for three days?" I suddenly felt a little desperate.
"Yes... no, wait." Elise looked ahead and suddenly his face changed.
Because she was floating in the air, her vision should be wider than mine, so I didn't know what she saw that shocked her.
Elise wanted to pull me forward, and then she found that she couldn't pull me, and seemed a little disappointed.
"Anyway, run over and see!" She shook her hand anxiously.
There was no way, I ran forward quickly, wanting to see the world in her eyes.
"This scene..." I held my breath.
Memories in my mind flashed like a movie.
At that time, Elise had just been "buried" in the cave, and I was still looking for a way to get to Gear City.
The lush and endless forest suddenly appeared here. Before this fault, there was a dense jungle, and after that, it began to turn into a decayed and twisted mystery full of magic.
And behind these broken and sparse trees is an endless desolation.
That was the scene I had witnessed before on the outskirts of Jianliang Town.
The corpses were everywhere, the bones were lush, and the fragments of wreckage were covered. They were surrounded by a long gray-brown soil, which looked lifeless, like a cemetery.
However, the scale of this cemetery is much larger than the last time, boundless and endless, and you can't see through it at a glance.
"This is indeed..." Elise was a little depressed.
I read the memory of the black fog in my brain. Yes, this scene is familiar.
I seemed to feel the lush and vibrant nature of the wasteland at that time, animals and elves were playing and flying in the forest. The beginner of magic was practicing aiming at an old tree. He laughed at his childhood sweetheart. The two wrestled in the forest, and then kissed again...
Enough, enough!
But memory has not stopped. Where it is familiar, its dominance forced memory into my mind like a tide.
Yes, then the black fog fell, there was no sneak attack, no timidity, it was not right, it should be me, just whistling through the dense forest after forest.
Wherever I pass, all the trees withered, the grass retreated into a wasteland. And living things became my slaves.
In less than ten minutes, this once green land of life has become hell on earth.
And my journey is not just that.
Memories surged like a tide, and disappeared like a tide.
Only I was breathing rapidly in place, like a fish that was short of water.
It is not easy to experience the memory of black fog from a first-person perspective. I breathed in pain, but still couldn't escape from the despair I just now.
"Long night, long night!"
"Long Night!!!"
Elise's scream woke me up from my despair.
"What? What did you give birth?" I pulled out the flying knife and looked at Elise.
Mechanics' skills often require casting time, and it is difficult to react when facing some critical situations. At this time, I can only rely on the instinct of the ranger.
She pointed in one direction and I followed.
A lonely rotten corpse was walking towards me, staggering.
It turned out to be an "old friend". I took out the cube and was about to start transforming.
"Slow down." Elise suddenly stopped me.
"It seems to be unaggressive, it is just coming towards you." She pointed to the rotten corpse.
"That's really strange, let's take a look." I put away the square and walked slowly towards it.
The flying knife is held tightly in your hand in case it suddenly attacks.
Although I am at level 23 now, and its small body at levels can't hurt me, I'm still careful.
Step by step, we gradually met.
But it seemed to be deliberately slowing down and finally stopped at two steps away from me.
Just when I was confused, something unexpected happened to me.
Its soft body bent slightly and actually knelt in front of me.
Its head raised to me, and deep light radiated from its hollow eye sockets.
It looked at me, as if praying for something.
"What's the situation?" I was a little confused and asked Elise.
"It's the first time I've seen this happening." Elise shook her head.
Although I don’t understand what was born, I always feel... something surging in my body, trying to accept this rotten soul.
Subconsciously, I stretched out my left hand to it.
The rotten corpse actually called out a joyful cry. I thought, if his tear glands had not been corroded, they would have been filled with tears at this time.
As if to respond to me, something really began to seep out of its eyes.
It is the black fog that turns into entities, the flowing plague.
Then the next second, the plague shot towards me like an arrow.
"Long Night!" Elise's scream came from his ears.
...
The corrupt corpse turned into a pool of black water, sank into the ground and disappeared.
The plague flew into my palm and was absorbed by me.
Maybe the source of the black fog in my body is summoning it.
Elise, who was standing beside her, was also shocked and confused, not knowing what expression she should have.
‘At this time I think it’s enough to just smile.’ I can’t say this.
I looked at my palm, "Since I killed Xie Lan, the source of black fog that originally merged with him has been transferred to my body."
"I can't explain what this is." I held my left hand tightly. "I feel as if I have part of the power of the black fog, and I can even share its memories and see what it has seen."
"Nevertheless, I can guarantee that it is harmless to me." I stared at Elise.
"I saw some of the things that day, so I chose to believe what you said. "Eliz spread her hands, "And you are my master now... I can't do anything."
"Okay, since you just absorbed the rotten corpse, then you just read its memory and see what we should do next." Elise suggested.
What I said is not unreasonable, I began to read the plague that I had just absorbed.
A young man, playing with his childhood sweetheart, grew up...ah, he is the mage who practiced under the tree in the memory of the black fog.
I just finished his short life like this.
"Let's go all the way forward." After sorting out my mood, I said lightly to Elise.
Looking ahead, I embarked on the journey again. I felt that this time I suddenly had a heavy burden on me.
