Dawn of the Grey Tower
Chapter 948: bright shadow
"You seem to be familiar with Jian Qi." He suddenly asked when Cheese and Joan left the crowd, passed through the outer checkpoint, and headed deeper into the Speechless's lair.
Indeed, when Jian Qi mentioned Kuai Keling before, he did not use race to refer to it, even if Qiong was the only Kuai Keling here, and Kuai Keling was much easier to remember than her personal name. But Jian Qi still used Qiong to call her, which was different from before.
"He's trying to get acquainted with each of us. Goblins, humans, that person is trying to remember us. Even though this is just a team that uses each other to get together temporarily, he wants to be like a real commander. "
Unexpectedly, Kuai Keling's mouth did not reveal any demeaning or contempt for Jian Qi. She was so sincere that it attracted the attention of Gray Pao. Could a leprechaun, famous for its eloquence, change her mind about a human being in such a short period of time?
Of course, that's not to say how much Joan respects or loves Jian Qi, she just doesn't belittle him, and this is already Umela-level treatment. But don't forget, Jian Qi is not a fairy, let alone a fairy noble.
"If you don't act like a commander, don't think like a commander, then what is a commander? Even an ad hoc team wants to control it. It's the dumbest way, and it's the most solid. The way is the way he will choose."
Cheese knows Sword Seven, at least as a companion. He knew that the sword-seeker, though seemingly casual, was actually closer to a heavy mountain. It's not that he doesn't know how to use tricks, and he will also use tricks appropriately. However, more often, Jian Qi will choose the most stable way to go to the goal. This is his character and his inner logic. Straight is clever, and it is great skillful.
Cheese isn't averse to this way of doing things. For mages, this may be unreasonable, and some are too rigid, but it is undeniable that rational calculations require huge premise support, otherwise it is impossible to draw correct conclusions.
But this world is full of reasonable and unreasonable. After an arrow leaves the string, it should fly to the target, but sometimes it will be blocked by flying birds, deflected by the wind, and hit by stones in the sand. , spoiled by all kinds of things you can't predict. Those unpredictable things are not really unpredictable, it's just that the archer can't be omnipotent, and he can't turn the possibility into an inevitable.
Therefore, if the road ahead is full of uncertainty, then blindly relying on logic and rationality is unreasonable. In such a situation, steadily advancing along the existing experience may not get the same good results as the predecessors, but after all, there is evidence to rely on.
Conservative, but conservative is valuable, and its core is to understand the responsibilities that oneself bears. Such Jian Qi is a reliable backing at this time.
"Maybe we shouldn't be here to fight. I don't know what you humans are fighting for, but it feels so bad here." Joan frowned, flying over Grey's shoulders.
Like all small-sized animals, keen senses are the only way for them to survive. This can be seen from the speed of the insects' reaction, and for the fast spirits, it will only be more delicate.
"Don't worry. You're right. If it's not bad here, why would they let us deal with it? Prisoners longing for freedom, curious outsiders, and all the intricate ties in there. A noose for strangulation, isn't it?"
Gray Robe laughed softly and said something that wasn't funny at all. He was naturally aware of the real unease in his surroundings, even deeper than Joan.
Kuai Keling stopped talking, she was very clever, and after expressing her uneasiness, she did not continue to prevent the intensification of Cheese's emotions. Many Kuaikelings just don't understand this truth, because the quick talk ended up killing their lives. Compared with these large creatures, the Kuaikelings are too fragile. They can avoid a thousand attacks, but as long as they are hit once, they will die. will come in an instant.
Joan was not afraid of this before, anyway, dying here will not really die, the fairy world will hatch her body again, and the fast spirits are always resurrected very quickly. But it was so weird here, and the sense of unease made her unsure of anything.
"Don't move, you are being watched by the shadow." Cheese said suddenly with a calm face. His gaze looked towards the area illuminated by the torches in front of him, where there was obviously no shadow, no shadow, not even the torch itself.
"Don't move? But if I don't move, I'll fall!" Joan didn't doubt the gray robe, so she immediately became scared. She didn't expect that two such disparate targets were walking side by side, and she was the first to be targeted.
"It's okay, I'll catch you. You slowly stop flapping your wings, be slow, and the transition must be smooth." Cheese placed his hand directly under Joan's body in the same slow but unstoppable slow motion. But his eyes never took his eyes off the torch.
Why do torches have no shadows? Very simple, because there is a bigger shadow in that area, it covers other shadows, and it pretends not to exist. That light is false, a disguise of shadows, disguised as the darkness of light, and once you step in, it will reveal its true face and deliver a fatal blow to the unwitting prey.
And even if the prey doesn't come in, too fast movement will still attract that thing's attention, like it devours all the area around the beating flame, it's a nature, the more flexible it is, the more attention it attracts. It is a shadow monster, commonly found in underground cemeteries or labyrinths, bringing real disaster with a false refuge.
People don't know what to call them, as few know and survive, and mages call them lights that must be careful, as they're not sure if it's a phenomenon or a monster. Just as people did not understand that trees are also a type of animals in the old days, UU reading www.uukanshu.com treats them as part of the land.
Cheese has some understanding of the nature of this existence. The reason is very simple. He has dealt with this kind of thing, in a test of the gray tower. He found the missing shadow at the time, but did not realize that the shadow was covered by something, and although he was alert, he was seriously injured. The scar had long since disappeared on Cheese's body, but the painful memory remained, making him remember the lesson.
Joan, who had already fallen into Gray Robe's hands, also noticed something was wrong with the torch, but she still couldn't understand what was going on. The fear and the unknown made her feel broken, and only the firmness of the palm of her foot gave her a little comfort.
"If I tell you to fly, just fly, fly behind me at the fastest speed, understand?" Cheese said softly, his right hand was already hidden in his cuff, and he secretly clasped a tool whose function was greater than that of a weapon. Small dagger.
"clear."
"Very well, then, fly!"
In an instant, the shadows, the light of the sword, the extinguished flame and the rising light, all happened in such a brief moment that the mind can't handle it. Fortunately, Cheese closed his eyes, his right hand stretched forward, and the tip of the dagger in his hand was pierced with a crystal drop of water. The water droplets spread upwards, wrapping around the blade of the dagger, so the blade disappears, wrapping around the back of the knife, so the back of the knife is also gone.
Soon, only the hilt of the small dagger was left, the hilt that Cheese was holding. Gray robe only opened his eyes at this time, flicked his wrist, and threw the dagger, just right into the flame of the torch. The flame was instantly dyed black, but quickly returned to its original state.
"Okay, solved. Be careful, there's more than one thing."
