Returning from the abyss

Chapter 290 Return of the Witch
Carl was taken aback.

If you can even guess who will be dispatched, then you must also guess that the human race will rush to destroy the ritual materials at the last minute, then wouldn't Lu Ning already have a countermeasure?

"Fujii! Find a way to inform Professor Shen and the others..."

"There's something wrong, Carl."

Fujii Yukine's voice came from the glowing cyan spell.

Lu Ning raised her eyebrows and said nothing, waiting for the two to communicate.

"We have been guarding Levin's place for a long time, and it is almost night now, but there is nothing abnormal around, and even the hunters watching around have not found any trace of Kiyotaro Asama."

"What? He has already attacked four people—wait a minute!" Carl's expression finally began to look a little surprised, and he turned to look at Lu Ning.

At this moment, fire appeared on the mountain, thick smoke rose, and it was very conspicuous in the setting sun. It was the signal that Robert and them agreed to send when the destruction was successful. If it can be destroyed at this time, it is at most the location It's just a little hard to find.

As if that wasn't enough, Lu Ning threw the Witch's Key directly in front of Karl, punching a small hole in the fallen leaves.

"I can leave it to you."

Karl's actions just now were untouchable, but now Lu Ning doesn't need this thing at all.

"You think I will perform the ritual at night when the devil is strong, and prepare during the day... I will prepare some bait with enough weight." Lu Ning folded her arms, "But I didn't plan to do this at night Ritual. Oh, I'm not actually going to perform a ritual at all."

"Are you not going to perform the ceremony?" Carl slowly repeated this sentence.

"When I realized that I had collected a lot of key ritual materials, which is the part of the clues we first mastered, I made it clear that my task was to draw everyone's attention to me and make me a In your eyes, the main force of the Demon Ritual." Lu Ning smiled, "Fujii, do you understand?"

"Dual-core virtual reality...but all the materials are with you." Fujii's voice was a little unbelievable, "When did you secretly deliver some of the materials?"

"It has never been delivered." Lu Ning spread her hands, "Unfortunately, when Kiyotaro Asayama assassinated the Turner patriarch in the tavern, only me and Serra were present, and I was the one with a clearer consciousness, otherwise You can hear it."

"Resonance?" Karl knew what this hearing meant.

"Yes, Asayama had the guidance of a witch, and it was earlier than me... At that time, I didn't understand what the specific meaning was, but I just cooperated with his actions. Later I realized that the six materials have referential meanings , body, spirit, memory, soul, life and death, plus a coordinate, the witch only needs these six elements to complete the return ceremony, and the materials are not critical."

The sky darkened in an extremely abrupt way, just like the sun suddenly went out, and the horror was like turning off all the lights in a bright closed room. The most primitive fear of human beings - darkness is spreading at this moment open.

Karl could no longer see Lu Ning, and could only hear her continue talking.

"So Qianshan didn't go to Levin at all, because Levin didn't have the elements he needed. He used a very deceptive method, which was to attack the leaders of those towns, making you think his The purpose is to attack all five people... In fact, there are only four who have the elements he wants to obtain."

Karl squatted down and picked up the key that fell in front of him. Fujii seemed to be talking quickly. They had already set off to find the trace of Kiyotaro Asayama, but it might be too late to see the situation.

"And you have also divided up your troops as I expected. Originally, you can only do this if you want to hurry up and take care of all aspects when you are short of manpower, but this also means that you no longer have the strength to stop us. You All the detections were dragged on the mountain, this is the final delay of the fighter - we won." Lu Ning's voice became farther and farther away, "When the witch's return is successful, this time and the overall connection will no longer be important. You can carry out the plan to destroy the timeline at any time, just as the fireworks for our victory."

The sky began to bend, and the space began to stretch. A huge void, like a bottomless abyss, appeared above the town of White Lake. The light of the stars and the moon also disappeared at the same time, leaving In the world there is only the light of the world.The terrified people began to shout, panic, and gradually turned into praying on their knees, but the hole was becoming stronger and stronger in everyone's perception, and then time dilation began.

Even if the witch only puts in one consciousness, it still has the same two-dimensional time state as the witch's original attributes. In order to adapt to this world, the dimension that does not match this world will start to curl accordingly, and start on the time axis of this world. Spread out - this is the most basic constant change, but it brings catastrophic consequences.

Karl was already running towards the lakeside hut with all his strength, but due to the effect of time dilation, his speed was slowed down extremely.Obviously the distance covered is the same, but he can feel that he is running very slowly, and it takes a very long time to run that distance.

Even, he can gradually feel some visual distortions begin to appear, the surrounding scenery is no longer an uninterrupted picture, but he can clearly begin to perceive the simultaneous feedback to his mind.

"Light... the speed of light..."

Karl was already drenched in cold sweat. He understood what Lu Ning meant and why Lu Ning didn't do it himself.And to escape from this world, he had to complete the detonation of the Witch's Bones himself, and even before that, he had to open the door to introduce part of the energy into the world behind the door to release a certain crisis.

At this moment, only three Majin are unaffected.

"Can they do it?"

"If you can't do it, you won't die. Anyway, the distribution center is responsible for picking up the tourists. Maybe Xia Xinhe can get them back." Lu Ning answered Zhu You's words. She is standing by the lake now. He was carrying a sack in his pocket, which was bulging and filled with unknown contents.

"I thought you'd give the townspeople a little thought."

"I'm not confident enough to think that I can save the world." Lu Ning glanced at Zhu You, "The behind-the-scenes of this kind of scene are basically human beings who can't compete, and I have left room for doing this now. , at least if I have some countermeasures on the human side to make things less unacceptable."

"This place will definitely not get better." Zhu You looked around. If she wasn't a demon, she might be able to see the scene of time dilation, but she really didn't want to see it.

"You don't accept it, it's just because you can't bear the collapse of the daily world you live in, it's not a problem of superpowers, but the basic laws of this world have begun to be completely rewritten... Forget it, what's the use of saying this? "Lu Ning looked up, "It is this time attribute that prevents us from being implicated, but we will be injured by the Witch's Bones. Carl is just a natural person, and even if he opens the box at close range, it will not be affected at all. .”

As soon as the voice fell, the hole in the sky suddenly began to accelerate the speed of release. This is the "speed" acceleration that only the devil can feel.It appears Cal has opened up another world to share the impact of The Witch's Return.

"Speaking of it, it's thanks to Xia Xinhe who turned the future into an 'up' time, otherwise I wouldn't even be able to give them this rescue strategy."

"Actually, this is also speeding up the witch's return." Zhu You couldn't help pointing at Lu Ning, "You just want them to work hard for you in vain."

"The part that belongs to the possibility does not need to really fall into this world, and the process can be shortened accordingly. Don't forget that this is a consciousness thrown by the witch subjectively. As for the reason you mentioned, I will not answer it." Lu Ning snorted With a cry, he looked towards the lake, and the Witch's Skeleton hidden there had escaped his control, which meant it was time to leave.

"Let's go, I don't know what the witch means to us, we just need to stay away until the 'end' is judged."

After Lu Ning finished speaking, she turned into a demon and went into the woods.

=================
Karl pushed the door open with difficulty, and the slowness that filled his surroundings began to flow quickly to the other side of the door like the gas in a punctured balloon, but he just glanced there, feeling that his mind was about to exploded.

"Carl! Carl!"

The voice in the paper figurine became normal again. Carl wiped the sweat off his brow and said to Fujii, "It doesn't seem too late... what's the matter?"

"We're looking for Asayama! How's the situation over there?"

"I opened the door of the hut by the lake, just as Lu Ning said..."

Karl glanced around the door. As time collapsed to both sides at the edge of the door, the space there was also disturbed and became brighter and brighter. That was the purest energy release effect.

"The opposite side of the door has become a world with infinite possibilities. Now that the witch's consciousness is descending into this world, there is still enough time to fill up the pulling power there, but don't forget, here is The past over there, if this state is maintained, sooner or later this side will start to change to the future state... I must seize the opportunity to detonate the Witch's Bones, and in this way, this scene will be considered over."

"Does that mean you can't leave?"

"Now, it's useless to track down the devil. I've already seen...the witch."

Looking at Baisha Lake from the lakeside hut, you can see the bright light in the heart of the lake. A glowing human figure slowly walks out of the lake. When the consciousness and body are matched, that is when the return of the witch is completed.

And Karl has nothing to stop it now.

The light on the "witch" gradually dimmed. She raised her arms and looked at the wet arms and clothes. Then both the water and the clothes began to evaporate and rot. At the same time, a brand new black dress quickly changed from the rotten Generated under the clothes, after a few seconds, the "witch" has a new look.

"Time... time." Carl raised the corner of his mouth. He was the only one lucky enough to witness this scene with his own eyes, but he also intuitively felt the power of the "Witch".

For the witch, everything in this world is just a replacement of concepts. She can let time wear out a thing at any time, and then generate a brand new thing with the same concept to replace it.Big and small in space have no meaning to her. She can make a piece of clothing disappear and reappear, and she can also make the sun pass through the stages of main sequence star and red giant star in an instant.Karl's time jump is like a water drop accidentally jumping out of the water in such a time power, but he can fully feel that it is already thanks to the same time power.

"The witch is back."

The paper figurine's light flickered for the last time, exhausting its energy, and Karl also picked up one of the black boxes piled up at the door, and opened the lock.

Detonate——

It was like a sharp sword piercing the night sky. Countless cracks appeared on the dark, lightless sky in an instant. The light passed through those cracks and shone into the world again. People's hopes were ignited.

"Not bad." Lu Ning, who climbed the mountain, looked up at the sky that was gradually returning to light. The darkness was being swallowed by the gradually increasing light, but this was not enough. The huge hole still existed in the sky. In the sky, this means that the connection between the witch and the world has not been severed.

And Lu Ning and Zhu You can still maintain their demonic form, and it is not after seven o'clock in the evening, which also confirms that the influence of the witch has not faded at all.

"What about the witch's movements?"

"She is walking slowly, heading towards Baihu Town, but the light is too strong, and I can't see the specific expression clearly." Zhu You kept watching the state of the lake.

"Normal. The witch just came to this world, she needs to learn and recognize, but it won't take much time." Lu Ning lifted the sack to her shoulders, and it was really effortless to carry it with her current strength. It's a pity that once this scene is over, this super power does not exist.

At this moment, a person walked out from behind the stone in front.

He maintains the human form as a whole, only the eyes are a pair of vertical pupils, and the fingers of both hands have become extremely thick, especially a small cylindrical container has grown on the second knuckles of all fingers except the thumb.

Asayama Kiyotaro smiled and nodded to the two demon companions.

"Thanks for your hard work."

"It was you who led the ceremony to complete the hard work." Lu Ning said politely, "I think this is the first time we meet as a demon?"

"Well, we met for the first time, the devil of the shadow." Asayama made a joke. He was much more relaxed and humorous in the state of the devil than when he was disguised as a human. He reached out to shake hands with Lu Ning, and then nodded to Zhu You .

"Zhu You completed the liaison work very well, and she contributed a lot this time."

"Of course, I have always believed in her." Lu Ning also agreed, "Would you mind telling me about your ability? I'm very curious, and I haven't had a chance to ask."

"My ability is mist." Qianshan raised his hands and showed Lu Ning a careful look at the cylindrical container on his knuckles, "There are eight of them a day, as long as the cylinder is broken, it can be produced in about fifteen to twenty minutes. You can choose the hallucinogenic "fog" or the "dense fog" that blocks sound and light. If you keep the cylinder, it can be used to release fog even during the day, and as my special demon Weapons, this thing can also be used remotely.”

"good stuff."

"Where, your ability is not bad, shadow related?"

"You can teleport in the shadows."

"sharp."

Zhu You couldn't stand the mutual flattery of these two people, so she quickly asked, "Can we be polite to each other when we go back? I don't want to stay in this place any longer."

As a result, Lu Ning and Qian Shan made puzzled expressions at the same time.

"It's not over yet, how to go back?"

"It's not over?" Zhu You was stunned.

"You can return to the distribution center only after you have reached the end of the event. This is a major premise. Both humans and demons must be satisfied before returning." Asayama said, "We have just completed the task."
