My Archangel

"...!"

At this moment, witnessing this scene from a very close distance, Erisa's heartbeat stopped suddenly, the line of defense collapsed, and her face turned pale.

Just like Vina, she almost forgot that everything in front of her was just an illusion, and subconsciously stretched out her hand to catch Qiao Wen.

However, she still grabbed a hole, and her fingertips penetrated directly along Qiao Wen's body.

At this moment, the monster in the distance... seemed to be closer to the two of them again.

——Leave here first.

At this moment, after clearly noticing this, whether it was Vina or Elisa...this thought came to mind.

For some reason, after each of them experienced a stimulus, the two people who were originally quite displeased with each other were surprisingly unified at this moment.

The next moment, almost at the same time, the two who had just arrived not long ago disappeared into this temporarily constructed spiritual world.

"..."

And with the departure of Vina as the memory carrier, everything in this hall of thought stood still and then began to collapse.

But... in such a world, there is still something that only acts independently.

The "person" whose whole body is entangled with dark matter.

In this self-destructive world, the faceless "man" just slowly raised his head, looking in the direction where Vina was leaving, motionless.

Then... With a strange whimper leaking from the throat, the mouth on that face suddenly cracked and spread directly to the base of the ear.

...

...

at the same time.

Lisiren, the main city, the temple.

Two human sacred artifacts stood on the left and right sides of the center of the hall one by one. Although it was late at night and early in the morning, people still came and went in this wide hall.

However, even so, the atmosphere in the entire hall is not warm.

Except for the uninterrupted rush of footsteps, the whole temple was terribly quiet, as if shrouded in an invisible atmosphere, everyone looked nervous, and seemed to be waiting for something.

"Master Elsia! Appeared! I just received the report that the nearest border to the "Unknown Region" is indeed the same as before the start of the last expedition. A large number of mentally disordered people appeared, and they all seemed to be crazy. , I also want to run into the'unknown area'...!"

At this moment, along with the somewhat panic-sounding voice of one of the staff members, the silence in the entire temple was broken in an instant.

At this moment, most people cast their sights on the 17th-generation Son who was communicating with the Holy Shield in the middle of the temple.

"No... just like the record in the holy book, those people have changed in essence, and the holy shield can no longer be forcibly transferred."

Just a moment later, Elsia opened her eyes, turned her gaze to the person who had previously reported, and said without hesitation: "Let the soldiers stationed over there stop them and kill them if they can't control it. , No one can enter that area, absolutely."

"…Yes."

Regarding Elsia's instructions, that person seemed to be mentally prepared for a long time, and did not hesitate to execute the order quickly.

"Master Elsia, this time this phenomenon occurred three days earlier than the last expedition..."

At this moment, the middle-aged man on the side cautiously walked to Elsia's side.

"I know."

Hearing these words, Elsia also nodded quietly.

Not only her, but everyone in the temple had anticipated this situation in advance.

——Every time Li Siren’s expedition is about to officially start, and during the expedition unfolding, the current situation will occur intermittently.

Even with the protection of the Holy Shield, there will still be a group of sudden mental disorders in Lisiren from time to time, as if fearing something to the extreme, instinctively wanting to get into the "unknown area" very close to the border People.

This kind of phenomenon does not occur in normal times, but every time it is specially selected to happen before Lisiren's expedition.

It was as if to warn all the citizens of Lisiren to stop the expedition, and to fundamentally disrupt Lisiren's expedition plan.

However, at that time, it was obvious that he had noticed a certain abnormality. The first emperor Pease had no idea of ​​admitting counsel. It would be better to say that the reason why he chose to do his best to carry out the "expedition" after obtaining the sacred artifact, except for the intention to expel the "worms." In addition, the more important thing is to deal with the thing that may be hidden in the "unknown area."

Today, there are still areas on the entire continent that have not been fully explored.

Surrounded by a faint black mist all the year round, there are many dangers, and any investigation method is difficult to work, and even the gods are not willing to enter easily.

There... is the place collectively called the "unknown area" by the creatures living on this continent.

Moreover, as time grows, this "unknown area" is even expanding.

From 20,000 years ago, it only accounted for 3% of the entire continent, and now it has expanded to occupy about 27% of the entire continent, and it has even spread to the Lisiren border.

During this period, countless lands were swallowed and submerged. Every time when Li Siren’s investigative army had replenished its personnel and armaments to explore, all the surroundings were completely different from the scenery before it was swallowed by the black mist. .

In the innermost part of that area, there is something extremely dangerous.

Moreover, at the same time, in that "unknown area", there are also various rare materials and elixir that are rarely seen at ordinary times. Those areas covered by black mist will be compulsory after being inexplicably polluted and rotted. Become a "fertile soil".

There, although it is hard to say that good things can be picked up everywhere, it is Li Siren who can pay a certain degree of "necessary price" every time, and can repeatedly rebuild the treasury in just hundreds of years. One of the main reasons for filling up.

"If this expedition fails... the black fog will probably spread to our border next time..."

In the temple, Elsia sighed slowly, looked up again at the towering Holy Shield in front of her, closed her eyes and prayed: "Master Shield Spirit, please... at least to ensure that this expedition goes smoothly. Go down."

Hum——

The next moment, as if responding to Elsia, a series of slight buzzing sounds came from the surface of the Holy Shield.

...

...

The next day, early morning.

A few rays of not-so-warm sunlight came into the room again through the gap of the window, and Qiao Wen also slowly woke up at this moment.

"Hmm... forehead is dizzy... I always feel like I have a strange dream... my chest has been worn many times inexplicably..."

With such a mutter in his mouth, the sleepy Qiao Wen just wanted to raise his hand and rub his eyes, but found that his hands could not play.

"...?"

After realizing this, almost subconsciously, Qiao Wen turned his head and looked to his right.
