Chapter 78: The Rift

It's not that cheese won't feel tired. Even if he is driven by research enthusiasm, Gray Robe is still very strict about his physical state and mental management. He will not allow his body and will to be exhausted to the point where he cannot protect himself unless

There is no last resort. Now is the moment of no choice. Cheese can clearly feel the unease and anxiety of the nomads.

He believed that Wu Qi could appease his people due to the negative emotions caused by uneasiness, but this did not mean that they would still be willing to accept Cheese and his friends. Their time was running out before they completely became the members of the Shaler tribe.

Before he can defeat the enemy, he must collect all the information he wants, deal with all the problems, and try to pack away the unresolved troubles.

But the mage still knew that not everyone was the same as him, so he asked Atta and Batu to take charge of the rope. Taking care of the rope itself would not consume much energy, and they could take a break. Even if they were originally

In Cheese's mind, Lothar's strength and concentration are more suitable for taking charge of this insurance, while the female swordsman's fairy eyes are more suitable for working with him.

He went deep into the crack to help find clues that he could not find. But this idea was quickly abandoned by him. This was not because Cheese no longer followed reasonable choices, but he began to think that the mood and status of his companions should be included.

The scope of consideration is too much pursuit of the so-called optimal personnel allocation, and the result is likely to be that the individual's situation and wishes are ignored.

"Hoo!" The slight sound of lighting the torch illuminated the dead darkness in the gap. In the grassland, the torch is very precious. However, its preciousness is exactly the opposite of that in other areas. Most places do not light torches because they require

A large amount of oil is consumed, but there are many livestock on the grassland, and butter and mutton are commonly used items by herdsmen. The difficulty for them in making torches is the wooden stick as the main body of the torch and the cloth strips wrapped around it.

Of the two, Lothar was hanging below, and Cheese was higher than him. This was the count's insistence. As a knight, he must take the lead. Lothar shook the lighted torch towards the darkness beneath him, and sure enough,

The end of the crack could not be seen. The darkness swallowed up the light emitted by the torch, creating a hollow below that seemed to be filled with

The illusion of being filled with dark matter. This darkness is unpleasant, like a pair of invisible hands pressing firmly on people's hearts. The count wants to say something to relieve this depression, but he is worried about the echo that will cause

Not paying attention to what might be in the crack, I could only hold back the throbbing in my throat and continue to sink slowly downward in silence.

The rope was actually not very long. It only reached the height of about four or five people before it stopped. But at this time, looking through the crack, there was only an irregular gap left in the sky. If the person was still conscious when they were buried, then this might be possible.

It must be the scene they saw. Lothar couldn't help but think this way. Thinking of funerals, death, and the memories of his deceased wife overflowed uncontrollably from the bottom of his heart. Those beautiful, dull, intense, and finally

It all turned into a helpless situation where he was kneeling in front of her bed, unable to do anything.

Breathe, breathe. Lothar tried hard not to let himself be swallowed up by this sudden emotion. He didn't understand why emotions that could usually be suppressed suddenly burst out at this time. Even this time, the emotion was stronger than when he was alone.

It's even more intense at night, and there's no futility in this emotion.

Unfortunately, there was no relief, only sadness, despair, and pain. It was as if this place was no longer a crack in the earth, but the unfathomable abyss of Heartless Bay. Everything he experienced after that was just before his death.

The dream, now, swallowed by the sea water, is finally going to return home...

"Keep your mind. There are some things here that will make people think wildly." Cheese's cold and serious voice interrupted Lothar's fantasy. The Earl shook his head, trying to drive away the images and feelings just now from his body and mind. He gritted his teeth.

Looking around, there is only darkness. But this darkness is different from the gentle night, it is malicious.

"Is it magic?" Lothar was still carrying his battle ax on his waist. In the past, he believed that the Fool's Justice could protect him from magic. But now he was not sure about this.

"No, it's something worse." Cheese's answer came a few seconds later, and immediately, the Breath of Dawn around his waist lit up.

"Puff!" Some things, neither the mage nor the count could see clearly what they were. In short, those things hid in the darkness further before the light of the lantern illuminated their bodies. But their existence has already been

It confirmed what Cheese said, this darkness was not pure and contained bad elements.

"Did you hear those sounds? I'm not scared, but you'd better hurry up. I doubt we can survive until noon."

"Yes, I heard you. Don't worry, whatever those things are, they dare not face the sun. Think more of Helen, your daughter will give you strength. I will get the job done as soon as possible so we don't have to be in this

Stay in this hellish place for too long, as long as..."

"Cheese? What's wrong with you, cheese? What's wrong with you..." Lothar was interrupted by a burst of bright light midway through his words. The bright light from another direction completely lit up the dark gap in an instant.

It was at that moment that the count saw another scene he would never forget. Those symbols

, those symbols that resemble human faces, eyes, internal organs, and other profane meanings, they make up for the cracked walls like the original texture of the soil! But the strange thing is that Lothar had used a torch to shine

Brighter than the walls around him, the soil should have nothing in it.

"Go away! You damn things!" The mage's angry shout was accompanied by bursts of flashes. The earl raised his head and tried to see clearly what the cheese was fighting, but due to the angle, he could only see the former.

’s lower body and the bright light bursting out around him.

The strong light disappeared after a few minutes, leaving only the light of the torch in the earl's hand and the lantern on Cheese's waist in the crack. The torch originally held by the mage had been thrown out by him as a projectile when the strong light was emitted.

"Huh...huh..." The sound of heavy breathing echoed in the crack, and the source was cheese. He swallowed hard and half-forced to calm down the rising and falling chest.

"We must leave immediately. This place is worse than we imagined." Lothar agreed with the mage's words. He almost couldn't wait to pull the rope around him, and the same was true for Cheese. Once, twice... When they pulled to the fifth

When there was no response from the end of the rope, everyone knew something was wrong.

"Hey! Batu! Atta! Take us!" Lothar didn't care about anything else and shouted at the other party. His voice was echoed and turned into an indistinct roar repeated in the darkness.

There was no response. The count stopped shouting and began to hold on to the rope, trying to climb back to the ground on his own strength. He noticed that Cheese was doing the same thing as him, but when the two of them were about to climb to the same height

, the mage suddenly let go of the rope. Then, before Lothar understood what happened, the cheese rope and the mage himself fell beside him, quickly falling into the darkness.

"No!" Lothar tried to reach out to hold his friend, but he couldn't grab anything. The count turned his head, he wanted to see what cut the cheese rope. But he saw the edge of the crack appearing at some point.

A figure appeared. That figure was abnormal. Because even from Lothar's angle, he could clearly see a complete figure from head to toe, but that meant that the figure stretched out at an almost right angle.

The edge of the rift! How could this be possible for humans?

"Asshole." Earl Montenegro cursed and began to tighten the rope around him as fast as he could. He wanted to rush to the ground before the strange figure turned him into cheese! His speed was so fast,

It was comparable to a mountain ape. When he grabbed the other end of the rope with the last grass stem left, Lothar successfully climbed to the ground.
