    After the Necromancer left, only Thor and others were left at the scene.  Everyone was a little unbelievable about this extremely smooth result.  Before coming, they had thought about all the possible difficulties they might encounter, including a fight with the Necromancer or only getting Emil's body.  However, Denecke not only let him go readily, Emil was not harmed at all, and the whole process went exceptionally smoothly.  It¡¯s as if you have been preparing for a long time and are determined to fight to the death with the enemy, but the enemy says not to fight, let¡¯s just be friends.  No matter how awkward you think, this feeling is really depressing.  "Lord, what should we do now?" Kress couldn't help but ask.  "Take the people and run away." Thor snapped his fingers and said briefly.  No matter what tricks you Denecke plays, I won¡¯t accompany you, I¡¯ll run away first.  This is a strategy that Saul has always pursued.  ¡°Moreover, what Denecke said to Emil before leaving also made him a little uneasy.  Intuitively, Saul thought that it would not be so easy today.  Sure enough, as a few people were preparing to leave the village, strange changes suddenly occurred around them.  In an instant, the originally sunny afternoon suddenly became dark, the sun in the sky disappeared, and it was as dark as night.  At the same time, the ground under everyone's feet was no longer an ordinary stone road, but instantly turned into a light curtain composed of various colors. The light curtain continued to flicker, changing into various strange patterns, as if standing on a beautiful  above the aurora.  .  The houses in the village also disappeared, and the surrounding area suddenly became extremely empty. There was nothing left in the field of vision except the endless blank space.  In other words, the five people were fine in the real world a moment ago, and suddenly they seemed to have entered a dream.  Everything around him seemed so unreal, which made people shocked and confused.  "Damn, what's going on?" Thor turned his head and looked around.  "It's those necromancers who did it." Crested pulled out the iron weight with a clang, but there were no targets around him to attack.  Among the others, Chip seemed the calmest. He crouched down and touched the light curtain at his feet, then walked more than ten steps to the left and right, while constantly thinking about something.  "Chip, what did you find?" Kress asked.  Kip nodded and said to Thor: "Lord, this is an illusion." "Illusion?" Thor was a little surprised. He also touched the ground like Kip and said strangely: "The place where we are standing is obviously  There is a stone road, but I didn¡¯t touch anything.¡± Kress also said: ¡°I remember that there are houses not far away, but you didn¡¯t touch anything just now. How could this be an illusion?¡±  The principle is generally to use phantoms created by magic to deceive the perception of the person being cast, thereby achieving the purpose of confusing, deceiving or concealing.  For example, the Necromancer's protection of the magic circle outside Rodia City is a typical illusion.  But there is a very important point, that is, illusion cannot replace reality.  In other words, there is obviously a stone next to you. Illusion can only cover it so that you cannot see it, or make it look like something else, but it cannot make the stone disappear.  "However, Thor and his party are clearly in the village, but all the objects that should be around them are missing. This is really difficult to explain by illusion.  Chip said solemnly: "I once asked Mr. Volsa about some knowledge about illusion. There is a very profound spell in the illusion system. It is not like ordinary illusion. It just confuses people's visual, auditory and other external senses.  , but directly affects people's hearts. " "A person who is confused by this kind of illusion will turn a blind eye, not hear, and cannot feel the surrounding environment normally, but he himself is awake and can move at will, and his five senses are also unavailable.  It's all normal, just like" "It's like you know you're in a nightmare, but you can't wake up at all," said Raymond on the side.  Chip glanced at him and then nodded: "Yes, that's it." Thor couldn't help but gasped: "Wow, the Matrix." "What did you say?" The three people looked at Thor together.  you.  Knowing that he had spilled the beans, Thor coughed dryly: "Ah, it's nothing, I just said it casually. Are you saying that we think we are normal now, but in fact we have completely fallen into illusions?" Chip said: "  That's right. Although we can move around freely, see and hear, in fact, we may just be spinning in circles, and everything is just a fantasy in our minds. "Kress couldn't help but wonder: "We.  When did you get infected? There is obviously no magic barrier in the village.None of the necromancers just did anything unusual.  " Chip said: "This kind of advanced illusion does not rely solely on magic enchantment. It must also be combined with drugs, hypnosis, etc. to numb the senses being used.  " Speaking of this, Raymond suddenly said: "Do you still remember the strange smell we smelled when we entered the village?  It's likely that we've been affected since then.  " Chip nodded: "Illusion is not a spell system that the Necromancer is good at. The other party must also have a magic barrier hidden in the village.  Especially since Kress and I are both mentally powerful people, it would take a lot of magic power for us to fall into hallucinations.  " " It is conceivable that at this moment, Denek, Edward and other necromancers must be outputting magic power with all their strength to make everyone trapped in the illusion and unable to come out. " "Awesome!  Sol patted Chip on the shoulder: "Kip, I knew you were the most reliable. I can't even hide this from you."  " "Then how to get rid of the hallucination?  " Unlike the lazy Thor, Chip has been learning all aspects of knowledge in the past 20 years, and finally played a role in this war. If it weren't for him, everyone might still not know why. " Chip shook his head: "  I'm sorry, my lord.  I only have a general understanding of this aspect of knowledge, and I am still unable to decipher such a profound illusion.  " Thor couldn't help but be stunned: "Then aren't we doomed?  At this time, as long as someone comes with a knife, he can kill us trapped in the hallucination.  " Qip said: "That's not the case.  Once our body is attacked, we are likely to be awakened from the hallucination, and all previous efforts will be wasted.  Therefore, if you want to attack us, you can only do it in the illusion.  " "Attack us with hallucinations?  Kress said in confusion: "Isn't that all false?"  " Chip shook his head slowly: "No, if we are killed in the illusion, our bodies will also die.  Because this illusion is so powerful that it can kill people!  " Before he finished speaking, there was a rumbling sound, and bulges suddenly appeared in the light curtain on the ground in the originally empty surroundings. Several people looked at each other in shock, and Sol smiled bitterly and said: "Kip  , I remember saying it before, you are really a crow¡¯s mouth.  " "Thank you for the compliment.  ¡± *************************************************  ***************** The bulge that emerged from the ground twisted and deformed, and soon turned into dozens of dogs that looked like dogs, but had a mouth full of fine fangs, and a sharp blade as long as it was dragged behind its back.  The tailed monsters let out a low roar and slowly surrounded the five people. "Lord, stand back.  "Kress snorted and stood at the front with his sword. With a loud roar, dozens of monsters rushed up together. Although they were small in size, their terrifying appearance still created a strong intimidation force.  When they got closer, the monsters running at the front jumped up and rushed towards Kress. Kress took a step back, and the iron weight in his hand came out with lightning, and he waved it quickly in front of him.  The monster in mid-air let out a cry and passed by him. After landing, it turned into a swirl of colorful smoke and rejoined the light curtain on the ground. At this time, most of the other monsters rushed up.  They still pounced on Kress, but a few of them bypassed him and rushed toward Thor and others behind him. ¡°Chip, I¡¯ll leave it to you.  "Kress didn't stop those monsters, he just shouted and crashed into the monster group at the same time. Instantly, the sword light flashed, and the heavy iron weight seemed to have no weight in Kress's hand, moving at various angles.  A group of monsters were flying around him, and everything that came close to Kress turned into streaks of smoke, and whining sounds continued, not to mention that Kress easily "slaughtered" those monsters and bypassed him.  Several of them had already rushed in front of the four of them. Three of them rushed towards Chip and Thor, while the other two rushed towards Raymond and Emil. Chip's eyes were focused, and with a flick of his wrist, he took out a dagger in each hand.  , protecting Thor behind him, three monsters "shoujiao" rushed towards him in a staggered manner, then two jumped up, and the other one rushed up to face Qip.  During the three-headed monster's attack, Chip was as calm as Gen. At the same time, he took a step forward and lightly waved his right hand to the left and right in front of him. His movements were as light as swatting away mosquitoes with his hands in summer.  The monster that rushed towards the ground was stabbed in the eyes by a dagger, and it whined and turned into smoke. The monster that rushed in the air had its neck cut open by Chip, and disappeared in the air before it hit the ground. "Lemon, protect Ai."  Mir!  "Thor poked his head out from behind Kip and thunderedMeng shouted.  Ever since he was rescued, Emil has been in a state of confusion and disarray, almost like a useless person.  At this moment, the monster rushed towards him, but he still stood there blankly, not knowing how to avoid it.  Raymond unsheathed his sword, first kicked a monster away, and then dragged Emil behind him. At the same time, he flipped the sword in his hand and struck hard like a stick.  The heavy sword struck the monster on the head, causing its head to split open.  At this time, the monster kicked away by Raymond rolled on the ground and got up, roaring and trying to pounce again.  Unexpectedly, I heard the howling wind and something whirling and flying towards me.  Then there was a scream, and the monster was pinned directly to the ground, and then exploded into a cloud of smoke.  Raymond stepped forward and pulled out his sword. At the same time, Kress had finished his work, and dozens of monsters were all wiped out in an instant.  With the strength of Kip and Kress, this kind of monster, which is considered to be a low-level Warcraft at best, will only be chopped down several times.  I really don¡¯t know if the Necromancers are too optimistic, or if they plan to slowly torture everyone.  "Lord, are you okay?" Kress shook his sword habitually and came back, even though there was no blood on his sword.  "I'm fine." Thor nodded, then asked strangely: "That's it? Those guys tried their best to lure us into hallucinations, they can't just have this little method." Chip said: "The caster can ** at will.  By controlling the things in the fantasy world, if they are willing, they can make stronger monsters, and even change the terrain here" Before he finished speaking, there was a dull sound, and the ground under the feet of several people suddenly shook, and then quickly rose upwards  .  "Whoa, Chip, please say something auspicious next time!" In Sol's exclamation, they were led quickly up into the sky by the bulging ground.  Within a moment, Raymond and his party were already in mid-air.  Then they saw an incredible sight.  A moment ago, they were on the ground, but now they were high in the air. Under their feet was a path on the top of the mountain that was only half a meter wide, winding and extending into the distance, like a ribbon wrapped in mid-air.  ??And down to a height of several hundred meters, you can still faintly see the five colors of light on the ground.  There is no way to reach the sky or the ground, and it is so vast that people are at a loss as to what to do, and the howling wind reminds everyone that this is an absolutely real illusion, and if you fall down, you will definitely lose your life.  "How should we go down here?" Thor carefully looked down, then shuddered and quickly retracted his head.  Before anyone had time to speak, the illusion had already answered on their behalf.  They saw that the road behind them was like collapsed building blocks, collapsing piece by piece, and quickly spreading towards here.  What else is there to say, just run.  Kress picked up the sluggish Emil, and several of them ran away, while Sanshou chased them a few meters away, as if there was a dog constantly nibbling.  After chasing and escaping for a while, Thor was used to being pampered and his age soon left him behind. Seeing that the collapsed area was getting closer and closer behind him.  Since Kress was carrying Emil, Raymond had to help Sol and continued running, but it did not increase much speed.  Seeing that the situation was getting more and more critical, after a while, the collapsed area had almost caught up to Sol and Raymond's heels.  If this continues, Thor will fall.  But these people were at high altitude and had nowhere to go. They could only continue running along the road ahead. The situation was extremely dangerous.  "When will this running end?" Thor gasped and said in despair, looking at the winding path in front of him that extended to the sky.  ¡°Don¡¯t think so much, let¡¯s run through the collapsed area first.¡± Raymond dragged Thor forward as hard as he could.  But he is not as tall and strong as Kress, and he cannot carry Thor on his back to escape. He can't hold on for long if he drags him so hard.  In fact, it is not unthinkable. As long as Kress puts down Emir, Thor can speed up by carrying Thor, but this also means that they must leave Emir behind.  Several people knew this, but no one mentioned it.  But the collapsed area is getting closer and closer. If Emil is not put down, Thor must die!     what to do?  Chip looked at Kress. Kress understood what he meant, but he shook his head firmly.  At this time, I heard an exclamation from behind, but it collapsed at the feet of Sol and Raymond. Sol lost his footing and almost fell down. Fortunately, he was caught by Raymond in time.  Seeing that the situation was not good, Raymond roared, and the Behemoth blood in his body made him burst out with amazing power in an instant.  He just dragged Thor forward a long distance and was temporarily out of danger. ?But it¡¯s obviously not an option to continue like this, and we can¡¯t always count on such good luck.  If we don't think of a way, no one will be able to escape next time.  Chip looked at Kress again. Although he said nothing, there was no room for negotiation in his eyes.  Kress gritted his teeth, finally nodded, and prepared to put Emil down.  ***************************************************  **************** At this moment, Raymond saw the summoning ring on Sol's hand and reacted immediately.  He hurriedly said: "Mr. Sol, use the summoned beast to take us to the sky!" Sol also woke up, and he slapped his forehead in frustration: "Why didn't I think of that." Then he saw him stretching out his right hand,  The ring on his hand flashed with white light, and a huge gryphon appeared in the air, waving its wings and screaming.  "Hurry up!" Raymond instantly controlled Simba, the gryphon, and let it fly parallel to the two of them.  Then he threw Thor onto the back of the griffin, and jumped out the moment the collapse caught up to his feet.  Landing on the back of the gryphon, Raymond controlled it to fly forward.  At this time, I don¡¯t know if they knew that several people were about to escape. The speed of the collapsed area that was originally chasing them suddenly accelerated. With a rumbling sound, they quickly arrived behind Chip and Kress.  However, although the griffin is strong, it cannot carry five people at once.  So Thor immediately took out the summoning book, quickly turned to one of the pages, and summoned the monster inside.  It was a strange bird with tiger-like black stripes and a body larger than a griffin. It was an intermediate-level magic beast tiger-eating bird.  Raymond controlled it to fly to the two of them, and then stretched out his hand to Kress: "Throw Emil over quickly!" Kress threw Emil, and Raymond caught him.  At the same time, Chip had jumped on the back of the Tiger Bird, but before Kress could jump up, the collapse finally reached his feet.  As soon as the soles of his feet were empty, Kress fell from mid-air.  The tiger-eating bird immediately retracted its wings and swooped down, grabbed his shoulders with its giant claws, and hoisted him up in time.  At this time, a loud noise was heard, and the endless mid-air path collapsed at the same time, like a mountain collapsing and the ground cracking, it was extremely spectacular.  Several people couldn't help but shout that they were lucky. Fortunately, Raymond reminded Thor in time to use the Warcraft, otherwise he would have died without a burial place.  "Okay, let's go down." Raymond controlled the two monsters to descend to the ground.  "Lord, I'm sorry, II have dragged you down." At this time, Emil on the back of the gryphon weakly said to Thor.  Thor patted his shoulder: "Don't say such things. Don't worry, I will definitely take you out." Emil's face showed emotion, and then he closed his eyes tiredly.  Soon, the Warcraft carried five people back to the ground.  Jumping off the back of the gryphon, Thor stamped his feet fiercely and sighed: "Oh my god, I never thought that being able to stand on the ground would be such a wonderful thing." Raymond and the others also jumped off the back of the warcraft.  Going up and down, Thor took back the griffin and tiger bird.  He was about to speak to Raymond, but when he turned around, he found that Raymond had a heavy expression on his face, as if he was thinking about something.  He asked strangely: "Hey, what are you thinking about?" Raymond heard this and then said: "Oh, I was wondering if it was too coincidental just now." His words also caused Chip and Ke to stand aside.  At the attention of the two Leis, Solqi said: "What a coincidence?" Raymond said: "Have you ever thought that although what just happened is thrilling, we can always escape the danger at the last moment?  It seems like someone arranged it like this on purpose." Kress asked in confusion: "You said that everything just happened was arranged by someone? But didn't we all almost die?" Raymond said: "It's this 'almost'.  It makes me feel strange." Seeing that Kress was still waiting for him in confusion, he had to explain: "As soon as Mr. Chip said about changing the terrain, we were thrown into the air. That's all. The subsequent collapse was just too fast.  Following us, we could have been killed if we were faster, but we were just a little short of it." "Later, after we escaped from danger on the Warcraft, the road immediately collapsed. If it had been like this from the beginning.  We had no chance of escaping. Although there were dangers just now, in retrospect, everything seemed to be a deliberately arranged drama. " "What you said does make sense."  Thor touched his chin and said: "But what is the other party's purpose? Denek must be eager to kill me immediately, so why would he play such a trick, because it is meaningless." Chip also said: "Although the caster  You can control the entire illusion, but you can't do whatever you want. It still has limitations on its abilities, so people who fall into it still have an escape.?¡¯s hope.  Maybe Cliff was really out of his depth just now.  "At this time, they didn't know that Deneke's real purpose was actually Emil. Saul also believed that Deneke created this illusion to kill himself, so he couldn't understand Raymond's guess. Chip and Saul agreed  It all makes sense. If Denek wanted to kill Thor, it would be impossible to make such an arrangement. Therefore, even Raymond felt that he was thinking too much. At this time, Kress looked around and became extremely angry again.  In the empty illusion, he couldn't help but said: "Lord, do you think we can fly out of here using Warcraft?  " Sol waved his hand simply: "How is that possible?  Didn't you listen to what Chip said just now? It's like we are in a dream now. This place has no boundaries at all. Even if we fly to death, we will never reach the end.  " "Then we will never be able to get out?  Kress said with a tongue-tied tongue. Chip said solemnly: "No, no illusion can replace reality. Somewhere in this illusion, the key to leaving must be hidden."  " "Can you find it out?  "Saul said hopefully. (To be continued.)
