Chapter 1015: Race Against Time
Before he could come up with an excuse, Sanders had already opened a passage through the fragmented mayfly.
Angel could only follow him with the idea of improvisation.
This might be the closest journey to death for Angel.
Not long after entering the dark cross-border passage, Angel found that Sanders' face beside him suddenly changed.
Sanders did not speak, but stretched out his powerful arm and pulled Angel back violently.
In the completely weightless cross-border passage, Angel felt dizzy. Before he could come to his senses, the next second, he saw that the space in front of him suddenly...collapsed.
This space collapse was like a normal passage, but suddenly there was a strange reaction, it turned into a reflective water mirror. Before it was over, the mirror exploded into countless small fragments.
These fragments shot away from the origin quickly and splashed around.
And these splashed fragments, in Angel's sight, turned into space vortexes, generating endless and powerful attraction.
There was no way forward.
The only way now is to retreat. But in this dark world, there are space vortices everywhere, and various gravitational and repulsive forces interact with each other. Even if you turn back and take a wrong step, you will surely die.
However, they have no choice. Sanders' eyes are dark, his expression is colorless, and his lips move slightly: "We can't go forward anymore, let's go back!"
Sanders walked very slowly. In his eyes, every step is countless formulas. He has to combine all conditions and data to open up a way to survive in this sharp knife path where the energy of space is disordered and the power is mixed.
The space vortex is not static, it is also pulling each other because of attraction, and then merging. Those countless vortices will eventually merge into one point, and everything will be annihilated into an eternal end at that time.
Angel felt like he was walking on a dark road to hell, and every step seemed to be a reincarnation. Around this narrow and long road, countless evil ghosts stretched out their withered and gray hands. They wanted to grab his legs and drag him into the depths of hell.
At the same time, above their heads, there seemed to be a golden wheel of time that looked like an exquisite pocket watch.
It was ticking.
Every time it ticked, this road to hell would collapse, and it was an irreversible collapse.
Its sound was a real death warrant.
Angel followed Sanders and walked step by step. Moreover, even a delay of one second would turn the way of life into a dead end, and he would be completely lost in this void from then on.
Angel felt extremely close to death when he followed Sanders. Sanders had a more difficult time. He still needed to calculate the steps. After just a few steps, his forehead was covered with sweat.
"Can you still hold on?" Sanders' voice was flat and mechanically cold.
Angel nodded.
"Well, I need your help on the next section of the road."
Sanders was in an extremely dangerous situation. Every thought that came and went would lead to a lot of variables, so he had to eliminate all external interference.
To return, they will inevitably face the suction of the space vortex. Sanders had been doing two things at once before, protecting them from being thrown away by external forces while calculating quietly, which consumed a lot of his energy.
"If you want to survive, you have to start using the gravity veins now to keep me from being disturbed by external forces when calculating."
It can be said that whether they can survive depends on whether the path Sanders calculated is correct.
Angel had no reason to refuse, and he was not qualified to refuse, because once Sanders made a mistake in calculation due to external interference, they would surely die.
Angel silently recited the secret soul muttering in his heart. As soon as his soul left his body, Angel immediately used the gravity veins to set up a gravity barrier around him and Sanders.
Just like the layer of gray fog that Toby arranged outside his body when he was in the Shadow Cave, it could block all attacks from the outside world.
Angel would naturally do it, but Toby was attacked by the Ten Thousand Snakes at the beginning, while Angel was now being dragged by the space vortex. The two forces were completely different.
The moment the gravity barrier appeared, Angel felt like it was about to collapse.
He immediately increased the output of gravity veins to maintain stability.
With Angel's help, Sanders finally entered the calculation wholeheartedly. Their speed of advancement was barely increased, but the consumption was also increasing exponentially.
It was too difficult to maintain the gravity barrier, especially in the process of suction and repulsion. Angel felt like a reed swaying in the wind. If it were not for the "shed" to cover it, it would have been uprooted long ago. But the "shed" could not last long. Angel could clearly feel that the gravity veins in his body were greatly reduced. He didn't know if he could hold on until the return.
The life-threatening "tick-tick" sound was still ringing. In order to maintain the gravity barrier, Angel's face became paler and paler, and even his eyes, ears, mouth and nose were bleeding.
But even so, Angel did not dare to relax even a little.
But after all, he was just an apprentice. Even if he had the gravity veins, it was almost impossible for him to find a balance point in the great power of heaven and earth.
Angel felt that he could hold on for at most 20 seconds, but there was still a long way to go from here to the entrance.
At this moment, Angel felt very clearly that he had come into contact with death.
Twenty, nineteen, eighteen, seventeen...six, five, four...three, two...
The countdown of time was also announcing his own death.
When the countdown reached the last second, Angel's face was already covered with blood, and his expression was full of despair.
At this critical moment
"The calculation is over, come with me!" At the last second, Sanders suddenly spoke!
This sentence was like the faint voice heard by someone who was drowning in a sea of suffering. Before Angel could realize what it meant, he felt his arm being grabbed by someone, and at the same time, his speed suddenly increased.
Sanders changed his previous speed and ran towards the door.
At the same time, the fatal bell hanging above their heads also began to countdown to annihilation. When the countdown ends, the space vortex merges into one, and everything turns into nothingness.
This time, they are truly racing against time.
Perhaps his fate was not deserved. At the last moment when the cross-border passage was about to be destroyed, Sanders successfully ran out of the passage with Angel, who was soaked in blood and sweat.
When Angel was lying in the underground cave of Wind Whisper Valley, gasping for air, a burst of bright light suddenly erupted from inside the cross-border passage opened by the fragmented ephemera.
It's like someone who is frustrated because he can't catch up, expressing his dissatisfaction with a bright light.
But in the end, Angel and Sanders successfully escaped from the fatal passage. The bright light represents annihilation, and annihilation only exists in that unstable cross-border passage... The laws of the abyss do not allow annihilation at all. Enter.
Therefore, they can only see the bright light of annihilation, but do not need to feel the power of annihilation.
After the strong light, the cross-border passage was completely closed.
When the dust settled, all the worries and fears disappeared, and the surroundings became calm and calm, as if nothing had happened. Only the smell of blood and sweat in the air showed that the previous escape journey was not a fantasy.
While Angel was still lying on the ground and lingering like a salted fish regardless of his appearance, Sanders had already tidied up his appearance. He was no longer as embarrassed as before. He looked exactly like the most gentlemanly and elegant person at the dinner party. noble.
If it weren't for the tired look on Sanders' brows, it would have been impossible to tell that they had just experienced a race against time.
"Well done." Sanders' low voice was quite sexy.
Angel lay on the ground and laughed.
He knew that he must be smiling silly now, but he couldn't think of any expression to use to express the joy of the rest of his life. Only laughter could show how happy and lucky he was.
After the terror comes joy, and after the pure joy, what remains is emptiness, happiness, and doubt.
After a long time, Angel was still lying on the ground like a salted fish. Sanders did not urge him, and neither of them spoke anymore. Sanders was thinking, and Angel was restoring the emptiness in his body.
When Angel felt a little stronger, he slowly sat up.
"Teacher, what happened before? Why did it suddenly become like that? The passage was obviously normal, but it was broken like a mirror?" Angel asked the doubt in his heart.
Sanders did not answer immediately, but said: "Clean up first before talking to me."
Angel looked down and saw that the strong smell of blood and the sour smell of fermented sweat was permeating the outside.
He smiled coquettishly, quickly gathered the water and wind elements, and used the Cleansing Technique to clean away all his dirt.
"And your hair," Sanders said.
Angel touched his scalp. Not only was it greasy and knotted, but it was also messy like a chicken coop.
After spending a few more minutes cleaning it up, Angel then looked up at his wet hair that stuck to his forehead and asked doubtfully: "Teacher, was the previous situation due to the instability of the space here?"
"It has nothing to do with the spatial stability of Fengyu Trough. It should be an accident in the cross-border channel." Sanders couldn't tell the specific situation because it was the first time he encountered such an accident.
Although he has crossed over a lot, this is the first time he has crossed over through the fragmented ephemera.
"To find out if it was an accident, just try again later."
"Are you still trying?" Angel's face was a little frightened, not only because of the continuation effect from before, but also because he didn't want to return to the wizarding world at this time.
Sanders gave an affirmative answer. He once asked Greya about some uses of fragmented ephemera. This situation has not happened. He prefers that this is a single incident.
Maybe, it's just bad luck.
Sanders thought about this and couldn't help but secretly thought in his heart: "Speaking of which, my luck hasn't been very good since I left Watch Fortress... I don't know why."
Sanders didn't overthink it, thinking it was just a coincidence.
"Rest today, pay attention to your recovery, and wait until tomorrow."
