The knight in the abyss

Chapter 298: Bridge

"wait a moment."

The monk said to everyone, Lancelot's eyes widened curiously, wanting to see how the scouts on the other side would respond to them, especially at such a long distance.But the human knight couldn't see any signs, even with the eyesight strengthened with real essence, he didn't find any abnormalities.

He looked at Hobison with some doubts, but found that he was leaning against the stone wall beside him relaxedly.Lancelot was a little dazed. He was very sure that the monk must not have stronger eyesight than him, and he did not feel any magic effect in effect on the opponent.

Lancelot realized that he might have been thinking in the wrong direction entirely, because the monk didn't seem to be paying attention at all.After waiting for about 5 minutes, Hobinson turned the winch again, allowing the beam of light to slowly sweep across the dark river bank opposite.This time the monk's expression was obviously more focused, carefully observing the place where the beam of light swept.

Following his gaze, Lancelot also looked at the other side.Finally, he noticed that when the beam of light swept across a certain bush, there was an obvious reflection, as if someone had placed a mirror or something there.

Judging from the monk's expression, that was obviously the response he was expecting.But the movement of his hand didn't stop, he controlled the beam of light to sweep across the entire river bank at the original speed.

Then the monk repeated it again, this time when the beam of light swept over the place where the flash had just been made, the reflection disappeared.Apparently, whatever had created that reflection had been taken away by this moment.

Lancelow couldn't help secretly applauding this ingenious design.Although everyone can see the signal from this lighthouse, it is difficult for the enemy to understand the meaning of the fast or slow, high or low beams of light.The scouts only need to put down some mirrors in the place where the beam of light sweeps according to the method agreed in advance, and they will be able to send back enough information without worrying about revealing their location.

"We're lucky tonight. There are no enemies within a five-mile radius." The slender human monk said, then turned and walked to the other side, "Come with me, I'll take you across the river."

"Uh, the door to go out is here." Brutal reminded that the monk was walking towards a gap in the watchtower. The bridge, but later collapsed.

"But the way to cross the river is here." Huo Binsen glanced at them with a smile, and then stepped out from the gap.

Under the surprised eyes of everyone, the monk's body stood firmly in the air, and his feet seemed to be still stepping on solid ground, although it seemed that there was nothing.

Lancelot was startled, and quickly felt the flow of spiritual energy in the surrounding world carefully. Only then did he realize that there was nothing empty under Huo Binsen's feet. From the gap, there was a transparent platform extending to an extremely far place.

"This is the masterpiece of elf mages. It can make stones and wood permanently transparent." Axian laughed and explained to everyone, "It's very practical magic, isn't it? Some elf kingdoms use this kind of magic. Magic, let the outsiders circle back and forth in the forest, but they can't find the legendary elven city."

"Wow! This is amazing!" Korra, a halfling with an adventurous spirit, was the first to follow.She lay cautiously on the invisible table, groping the ground with her hands, confirming the edge of the invisible passage.

"This passage is ten feet wide. As long as you follow my footsteps, you will definitely not fall."

The monk assured everyone.Then he clasped his palms together, and the surrounding wind briefly changed the flow direction. When he walked forward again, shimmering footprints appeared in the air he stepped on, giving the people behind him a sense of relief. a clear reference.

"No one is afraid of heights, right?" Axian winked at everyone and followed him up.

After that is Helotesia. As a creature with wings, she naturally has nothing to be afraid of.Caraline and Aramiel followed. Although there was still some instinctive fear, it wasn't too difficult to follow along when there were people in front and behind.

Even little Isa was released by Lancelow. If she was not called on such an interesting matter, the little girl would definitely pout at him later.

In the end, only Lancelot and Brutal are left, and maybe the skull hanging from the hilt of the sword.The two stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes, as if roots had grown under their feet.

"Let's go?" the human knight suggested.

"Brother... If I fall, can you hold me?"

"I'm afraid not." Lancelot looked up and down Brutal's armor full of spikes, "Do you see any part of your body that I can attack?"

"Here, here you are." Brutal took out a bundle of ropes from the small bag he was carrying, handed one end to Lancelot, and tied the other end to his belt.It was the rope the dwarves used to hoist the boulder when they dug underground, and it was enough to carry the weight of several Brutals.

"Um, don't you think it's kind of like..."

"It doesn't look like you walk in front." Brutal said with a straight face.

Lancelow shrugged, and walked onto the transparent stone bridge.He intentionally walked slowly, so that his dwarf partner, who was accustomed to keeping his feet on the ground, had time to suppress the instinctive screaming voice in his head, and slowly shifted his focus to the foot that was stepping on the air.

"This is too difficult..." The dwarf complained from behind, "Lancelo, you should pull me..."

"You have already come up, don't try harder?"

"I must try it when I have a chance, but don't waste time now." Brutal said resignedly, "I have closed my eyes, let's go quickly."

The reality is sometimes so ingenious and full of irony that people often walk faster with their eyes closed than with their eyes open.

This invisible passage was longer than everyone imagined. After crossing the Hoffenstein River, they walked for almost half a mile before the soles of their feet set foot on the tangible land again.

"Then goodbye, friends." The monk clasped his hands again and saluted, "I wish you all the best."

"Thank you, old man." Axiian gave the monk a warm hug, "I really hope you can come, just like before..."

"Sometimes I really doubt how you got the title of general." The monk shook his head and looked at Lancelot, "I guess he must have told you a lot of reasons for coming here, trust me , that’s all nonsense, he just longs for an adventurous life and doesn’t want to let go of any opportunity.”

"Did you drink tonight? Why are you talking nonsense?" The elf smiled and pushed the human monk, then turned to greet everyone, "Stop talking nonsense with this guy, let's go!"
