"If it is a trap, then who is the person who set it up? What is his purpose for doing this? Assuming that this guess is true, what happened in the eyes of Death proves that he has the power to change the environment. Since he has such a strong power, then he is straightforward If you can just kill everyone who enters the cave, why bother designing such a complicated trap?" Mok asked the questions in his heart in one breath. His words also revealed the confusion in Yuna and Heidemann's hearts.
"You have a very bright mind." Link looked at him and smiled, "The questions you just asked have been bothering me. However, no matter how well he hides, he will eventually leave clues that can be followed. . Once we have come, let us settle. The deeper we fall into the trap, the closer we are to the truth. Everyone cheers up, and when it gets brighter, we will move on. "
"But, that wilderness is really too dangerous. If we go in hastily," Heideman was very worried.
"Don't worry, I will lead my men in front to clear the way for you." Link said.
"Link, you can't take risks until the situation is clear!" Yuna frowned.
"Don't worry, I have a way to deal with it." Link comforted him softly, "I am a person who never suffers, don't you know?"
Judging from the opponent's layout, what he is best at is controlling the prey in the trap by destroying the will, influencing thinking, and manipulating its life and death. The tragedy that happened to the Lanling Army at night is ironclad evidence. And it is not easy for him to influence the veterans of the Ninth Division. They have all experienced various perverted tortures at his hands, and their mental powers are astonishingly strong.
"Are you sure?" Yuna was still a little worried.
"Of course." Link smiled. These words. He said he was here to comfort Yuna, but he actually had no idea at all. But at this time, facing the lurking crises, there is actually no other way to go except to take a risk.
"You and Mork go and sleep for a while. I asked General Heidemann to take me to see the soldiers who died as soon as they entered the wilderness." Link said again.
"Okay. Then be careful." Yuna nodded meekly. After feeling great sadness and joy, once her mind relaxed, she finally couldn't hold on any longer. She felt very relieved that Link was here, because this guy was almost omnipotent.
"I'll come with you." Mok said awkwardly as he lost sleep after being ridiculed by Link. He wanted to see it with his own eyes. This one stole the third sister's heart. What is the real ability of this guy who speaks harshly and has an astonishingly loud tone?
"That's just the way he is, don't mind, second brother." Yuna understood what he was thinking and whispered in his ear.
"No. In fact, he is right. Today's Lanling does not need a poet. What it needs is a prince who can make Lanling appear in front of the world with a new look." Mok sighed.
"If you think so, learn more from him. This is a guy who is very good at creating miracles." Yuna left with a smile.
"General Heideman, you just said that when the tragedy happened at night, the officers and soldiers who died died beside the wooden piles in the wilderness?" Link asked as the group walked towards the place where the bodies were parked.
"Yes. Those wooden piles were covered with blood. I had a feeling at that time that they seemed to be in progress." Heidemann couldn't find the right words to describe the scene at that time.
"Some kind of evil ritual." Link continued.
"That's right! That scene is really scary to watch!" Heidemann nodded.
"Do you see what's special about those wooden piles?" Link looked at the wilderness in the distance.
"It seems to be very ordinary and shabby. I didn't pay attention to the others because the sight was not good. You can take a closer look at it when it gets brighter," Heidemann said.
"We can ask Terry and the others about this question later. They tried to attack those wooden stakes, but they failed and they themselves were injured."
"Terry?"
"Yes. Terry, there are a few guards who came from Tianmeng with the third sister. I heard from the third sister that they seemed to be members of the guard team around Commander Shuimen."
"Are they seriously injured?" Link frowned.
"It's not serious, but it's very weird. A layer of black energy appeared on the faces of several people." Mok replied.
"After seeing these dead soldiers, you take me over to see him." Link said.
Several people quickly arrived at the place where the body was laid.
Link knelt down and carefully inspected the body of the deceased. "There are no injuries, and there are no signs of poisoning. The pupils are dilated, the facial muscles are distorted, and the muscles all over the body are stiff. Well, these two are also incontinent."
"You can see,How did they die? Heidemann asked in a deep voice.
"If I guess correctly, they were scared to death." Link clapped his hands and slowly stood up.
"Scared to death? How is that possible!" Mok didn't believe what he said. At that time, there seemed to be nothing scary in the wilderness except for a few broken wooden piles. How could these soldiers, who had experienced several fierce battles and were accustomed to seeing blood and death, be frightened to death?
"How is it impossible?" Link said with a smile, "When people are in a state of extreme fear, it is easy for people to have lower blood pressure, reduced blood flow, and increased adrenal hormones, which can lead to physiological reactions such as loss of voice, inability to swallow, muscle twitching, and whole body trembling. and finally death.¡±
"Sorry, you may not understand what I'm talking about." Looking at the two people looking at him blankly, Link explained, "What I want to say is that strong fear can be fatal."
In his previous life, he had heard of a strange thing: someone was accidentally locked into a cold storage, and he was found dead the next day. However, there is no cooling in the cold storage, and the temperature inside is almost the same as the temperature outside.
¡°Obviously, the people who were locked up in the cold storage were not only worried but also certain that they would freeze to death. This mentality eventually affected his physiology and caused his death.
"However, we didn't find anything terrible in the wilderness at that time." Heidemann frowned.
"The problem probably lies in those wooden piles!" Link sighed.
"On this point, my thoughts are the same as yours. When these soldiers died, they were very close to those wooden stakes." Mok interjected, "I felt something was wrong at the time, so I looked at those wooden stakes from a distance. , and as a result, I suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable.¡±
"Oh?" Link looked at him, "What does it feel like? Please tell me carefully."
¡°I had a strong premonition that I would definitely die.¡± Mok said with a wry smile.
"It makes sense since I feel that I will definitely die." Link muttered to himself, his frown slightly relaxing.
He remembered something.
In previous lives, there were areas where some indigenous people lived. There was once a popular curse called murderous bones. Shamans made murder bones from human bones, kangaroo bones, sticks, and stones. The murderous bones are endowed with incomparable magical powers through mysterious rituals. Just point the murder bone at the victim and recite the incantation to cause the victim to die painlessly and without disease.
Later research showed that the person who was killed had received serious psychological hints and believed that he would definitely die if he was pointed at by the murderer's bone. This state of mind is often under the influence of drugs. It quickly turned into a physiological reaction.
Those wooden piles in the wilderness. It should be similar to the murderous bones, and it is probably one of the most frightening dark magics on the Elant continent. After only a few glances, Mock felt a strong psychological suggestion of death. This shows how powerful the evil power is on these wooden piles.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? themselves?reckoned? In the eyes of the god of death, the officers and soldiers were frightened and their nerves were highly tense. In the sea of ??flowers on the other side, there are also drugs that can cause confusion and damage to the mind. A highly nervous person, with confused thinking and damaged sanity, faced with these wooden stakes that are similar to murderous bones, may have the idea that he will die, and under its influence, he will have terrible hallucinations, and eventually he will be overly frightened. And lose your life.
"There are some bones tied to those wooden stakes, and some weird symbols are painted on them. It makes people feel hairy when they look at them. All kinds of terrifying scenes suddenly appear in their heads, and their thinking is also in chaos."
Not long after, Link met Terry. And Terry's words confirmed his guess.
"Brother Terry, do you see clearly?" Link said in a deep voice.
"Yes. I was in the air at that time, and took a few careful glances with the light of Dou Qi. It's still scary to this day. There is a voice that keeps echoing in my ears: You will definitely die here!" Li sighed sadly.
"You guys have a good rest. I will never let you die here. The princess needs great knights like you!" Link said with emotion. He had already learned about Terry and others from Yuna, and his heart was full of gratitude to these passionate men.
"It's not a pity for me to die, but I hope that Her Royal Highness the Princess can return safely! Mr. Link, please!" Terry looked at him and said excitedly.
"That won't work. If you all become martyrs, then I owe Commander Shui Sen a huge favor. The confused account between me and him will no longer be settled." Link laughed.
The sun rises in the east, driving away the darkness of the night, and the light once again covers the earth. For the officers and soldiers of Lanling, this is worth it.Happy new day. Because at last the bloody and terrifying night was over, and they were still alive.
"Put the pills into your nose and go to sleep without worries! Tonight, we will stand guard for you, no one can harm you!" What Nance and Torre said when distributing the pills gave them a moment of sleep. I woke up in the morning feeling somewhat refreshed.
"Link, what can you do, tell me quickly!" Standing in front of the wilderness, looking at the broken corpses of Lanling officers and soldiers in the distance, Yuna couldn't help but think of the scene at night, and looked at Link with a frown.
"It's very simple. I will personally go out and lead my people to destroy all these harmful piles!" Link chuckled.
"Is this your method?" Yuna was speechless.
"Of course, to cut through the mess quickly, the simpler the better. However, the road ahead is dangerous. Before setting off, I need my goddess to give me a kiss of blessing!" Link leaned against her body and whispered in her ear. After whispering a few words, he brought his face to her lips.
Yuna¡¯s face felt hot, she was extremely shy, and her eyes were full of spring. However, her heart felt at ease.
"The boss is obviously taking advantage of others' danger!" someone said with emotion.
"If we don't take advantage of others' danger, he will no longer be the leader we are familiar with!" Someone seconded the opinion.
"I'm going to fight for my life, why don't you give me a fucking kiss! Oh, you damn bald head, get out of my way!" someone laughed and cursed.
Amid the envious gazes of a group of second-rate young men, Yuna glanced helplessly at the man in front of her, leaned over and kissed his face gently.
"Brothers, follow me!" The satisfied Link turned around and waved his hand to the veterans of the ninth team, and rushed forward into the wilderness.
