Barrier of Light

A strong wind blew.

The iron gate trembled.

In late autumn, dead leaves are rolled up, as sharp as a knife, and scraped against the iron sheet, making a harsh crackling sound, which shows how strong the wind is.

But even so...the fog was still thick.

Even such a strong wind could not blow away the richness, as if it was imprisoned in an invisible air niche.

The factory building was completely white.

Covered in heavy fog, this is the core area where the "sealed object" is located... In the thick white fog, there is a dazzling red light. The ground of this old factory building is cracked like a volcano, with red water flowing. The lines are criss-crossed, like a lava pool.

Shi Li squatted at the intersection of the eight red lines.

He took out a sealed iron can from his arms, twisted the mouth of the can, and the scarlet blood-like fluid slowly poured from the can.

These blood-like substances are all extraordinary sources!

Moreover, the breath was very strange, as if it was extracted through some ancient secret method.

Shi Li's movements were very slow.

Also very stable.

He patiently kept the tin can tilted to a minimum to ensure that the essence could be poured out, so in the snow-white mist, the scarlet blood continued into a long and looming line... In the end, all the hanging scarlet essence was poured into it. In the center of the bloody pattern of the factory building is a square gospel box.

The gospel box was only as big as a palm, but it looked like a giant mouth.

A whole bottle of iron cans slowly fell down into the bottomless pit.

Then, the second bottle.

The third bottle.

…

…

By the time all the five bottles of bloody liquid Shi Li carried were poured, nearly half an hour had passed.

He slowly stood up and looked at the small box on the ground that was finally overflowing and slowly digesting, and showed a satisfied smile.

"哐——"

There was a muffled sound outside the iron gate.

Although this voice was not serious, it immediately attracted Shi Li's attention.

"Someone!"

Shi Li's expression suddenly darkened.

He lowered the brim of his hat and stood silently in the fog of the factory, suppressing all his sounds...

The whole world was silent.

It seemed that the sound just now was just an auditory hallucination. The guy who accidentally touched the fragile iron door must not have thought that this kind of gate would be so fragile.

He also remained silent, and there was no more noise from then on. He must have placed his hope in himself in the factory, thinking that this was an illusion.

But what a shame.

Shi Li didn't think this was an illusion.

Although the most remote old city in the capital was chosen for "experimentation", after all, a whole day had passed since the sealed object had awakened, so it was not a surprise that it was discovered now.

The fluctuations of the sealed objects were suppressed to a great extent.

Ninety percent of the power is concentrated in this factory.

The overflowing fog filled the deserted Yuandan Street, and the rest should have spread to the other blocks... Maybe it was some unlucky guy who accidentally entered Yuandan Street, I couldn't tell.

"If it's an ordinary person, then you don't need to worry about him...it won't take long...this person will naturally dry up."

Shi Li frowned.

"But what if it's a transcendent person... You don't have to worry about the other party entering this factory. There is no specific 'protective object'. If you want to break in, you are just asking for death."

Every time I come to the old town recently, I feel like I'm being watched.

"etc……"

"Perhaps... I have been targeted a long time ago. This time, the man followed me to Yuandan Street."

Shi Li's expression was calm, and there was only indifference in his eyes.

Gu Shen's guess was correct.

This heavy fog blocked everyone's vision, even the members of the Long-term Foundation who released the fog were not immune.

It's hard to keep track here.

Likewise, it is difficult to detect being tracked.

"Am I going in and out of the old city too frequently?"

After clearing his thoughts, Shi Li smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly. No matter what... the game of cat and mouse has now been completely reversed.

In this fog, I am a cat.

The other party is a rat.

He quietly walked out of the factory and slowly looked in the direction of the source of the sound... Although he couldn't see anything, Shi Li was very sure.

There was a person standing there.

The direction he "looks" in.

On the other side of the ruins——

About ten meters away, in the thick fog, stood a tall figure, holding a motorcycle helmet with one hand and pressing the sunken iron gate of the factory with the other hand.

Hu Danian controlled his breathing, letting his spirit relax and not be too tense.

Heavy fog.

In the end, he chose to trust Gu Shen... and came to the factory to be the bait that exposed him.

In this heavy fog, sound is the source of all messages. Making this sound tells Shi Li... that someone is coming.

He exposed himself.

And stood there, waiting silently.

Hu Danian closed his eyes.

In this situation, eyes were no longer important because he couldn't see anything, so what he could trust was his intuition, his reaction at the moment of life and death, and... Gu Shen, who had not yet been exposed.

…

…

Shi Li moved forward slowly.

He knew very well... what the ultimate distance of this layer of fog was.

step.

Two steps.

Three steps.

Stop.

Going a little further, that's where that guy stands.

A dagger slipped silently from his cuff. The dagger was engraved with a pattern of a black keel. At this moment, the keel seemed to come alive, taking on a life of its own, slowly stretching itself on the edge of the dagger.

The moment when the keel swims.

Shi Li also moved.

He stepped into the limit of visibility in the fog in an instant, and what he saw was indeed a towering figure pressing against the wall, but the man stood as silent as a stone sculpture, as if he was waiting for him to come.

Is it an ambush?

There was only a moment left for Shi Li to think.

He stabbed it with an indifferent expression... Yes, so what?

The dagger reflected the cold light, and the speed surged at this moment. The mist that could not even be blown away by the strong wind was driven by his extreme speed, and there were vague signs of spreading to the surroundings.

Accompanied by the sound of sonic explosions.

This dagger pierced into something hard and round.

Hu Danian opened his eyes at the last moment, like a diamond with angry eyes, and swung out the helmet in his hand. The alloy helmet was pierced by the keel dagger, but the red silver in the inlaid layer immediately poured out, and the keel pattern inside the dagger burst out with an angry high-pitched voice. Screaming, extraordinary power meets strong logical material, just like lava meets liquid nitrogen.

After traveling around for half a life, this helmet is a treasure that Hu Danian has treasured for many years. Once the inlaid layer is punctured, the red silver inside will flow out. No matter where you go, with this helmet, there is an extra container to contain the sealed items. container.

The dagger pierced the helmet, triggering two completely opposite forces and extremely violent reactions between them——

There was a "boom"!

The helmet suddenly exploded, red and silver splashed everywhere, the bone dragon in the dagger roared angrily, and the cold light reflected Shi Li's cold eyes. In this small dagger, he actually lifted a bone out of joint. It's not a carved pattern...but real sharp bones, twining from both sides of the dagger. In an instant, this short-hand weapon turned into a three-pronged arrowhead that slipped out of the cuff and was thrown!

Hu Danian's pupils shrank, his cheek was pierced by a keel, and clear particles of blood were thrown in the air.

A flash of lightning.

He seemed to see... a chain-like bone rope connected to the end of the arrowhead and dagger.

"Whoosh!"

Shi Li raised his hand and pulled back. The open bone spurs took on the shape of barbs, like eagle claws, and were retrieved from the back of Hu Danian's head... The trembling sound of wind reached Hu Danian's ears. He quickly ducked to the side, but it was already too late. A pool of blood was brought out, and half of the flesh and blood on the neck was scraped away by bone spurs!

Hu Danian covered his neck with all his strength, his face very pale.

He felt dizzy.

Blood kept pouring out of the neck... I squeezed it hard, but it had no effect.

It all happened so fast.

From the time when Shi Li took action to the sudden change of the dagger... this guy's abilities are related to his own bones. The bone spurs that spread out from the dagger and the bone ropes connected to the ends should be extensions of his own bones.

"Sincere Meeting, Beitang, Group Two, Hu Danian."

Shi Li looked at the weak man in front of him. He recognized Hu Danian's voice and smiled lightly: "You are checking me...Who is behind you, Lu Nanzhi, Cui Zhongcheng?"

Hu Danian smiled weakly, "What you said...is a bit interesting."

Shi Li subconsciously did not mention Zhao Qi.

Although the eldest son Zhao has a false reputation...after all, he is also a facade of the Zhao family. In many matters, he enjoys the resources and privileges of the future successor.

"..."

Shi Li also realized his mistake.

But he didn't pay attention and said calmly: "When you are about to die, you should think more about yourself."

Even if he doesn't do it.

Hu Danian is also bound to die... He was so seriously injured that he couldn't survive long in the fog of Yuandan Street.

"Before I die...can I ask you a question?"

Hu Danian smiled.

He pointed at the fog and asked softly: "What is in this house?"

Hu Danian didn't know when Gu Shen would take action.

But he knew... this kid was a spiritual being, and Shi Li had a spiritual lead planted by the Jiujiu Foundation in his mind. Even if he succeeded, there would be no way to know the secret of this fog.

"What a good and conscientious dog..."

Shi Li looked at Hu Danian who was covered in blood, shook his head with a smile, and said softly: "I will tell you after you die."

He leaned forward again.

At this moment, Shi Li's pupils shrank and he "slowly" looked down.

The shattered helmet fragments and red and silver liquid everywhere had moved and gathered at the soles of his feet at some point, as if they had been poured and constructed by some mysterious force, condensing into a fortress welded to the ground.

This red and silver fortress locked his feet in place.

So the moment he raised his feet and leaned forward, his body fell forward uncontrollably.

"……this?"

Shi Li looked a little confused.

The explosion of the helmet just now... was it done intentionally by Hu Danian?

The reason is to wait for yourself to take it lightly, and then trap yourself... But what's the use of trapping yourself?

Then, there was a sudden sound of wind beside his ears.

There was a silvery cold light blooming in front of Shi Li's eyes.
