The phantom butterfly, which was only half a person's height, was so small and delicate, except for its two pairs of colorful wings, that it looked like a young girl who had not yet grown up.

Perhaps because this kind of creature from the underworld was known to be too safe, Raymond had never thought of considering it as an opponent. So after seeing its cautious and timid movements, he smiled and retreated at a distance.

The phantom butterfly, whose feet did not touch the ground and whose two pairs of wings were only trembling slightly, seemed to have turned its face and pointed behind it because of strong fear.

So a strange scene appeared. The phantom butterfly twisted its face as if it was walking backwards, and Raymond was also retreating with it.

Raymond, who had restrained his perception and shielded his own breath, did not notice that as he continued to retreat, a dark vine quietly emerged from the sand dunes dozens of meters behind him!

The dark and tough vine, which was only as thick as an ordinary person's finger, had a faint light flashing on its surface. After a slight hesitation when it came out of the sand dune, it suddenly stabbed into Raymond's back!

The slight sound of breaking through the air made Raymond, who was focused on the Phantom Butterfly, stunned for a moment, but he still noticed when the dead vine entered behind him a few meters.

The left hand placed behind him immediately decomposed into tentacles, and before the dead vine touched his protective barrier, it immediately wrapped around it to block its progress, and was imprisoned as Raymond's mind turned.

But this sudden sound of breaking through the air still alerted the Phantom Butterfly.

The neck suddenly twisted back. The moment the Phantom Butterfly saw Raymond, its pupils suddenly shrank, and then it instinctively opened its mouth.

Chi...

The short and extremely sharp scream had an effect similar to a shock wave. The air in front of it deformed instantly, and after being pushed, it formed a layer, which made Raymond, who was facing the face of the Phantom Butterfly, stunned!

But then there was a "bang" sound, and the two pairs of colorful wings of the Phantom Butterfly suddenly waved forward, releasing the fine powder on its wings, just like a puff of colorful smoke, which completely covered its body while the Phantom Butterfly retreated rapidly!

There is a protective barrier on the body surface. Raymond, who isolated his own breath from the outside world, could naturally ignore the toxin attack of the Phantom Butterfly, but his purpose was not to kill it, so the dead vines entangled by the tentacles were pulled out of the sand dunes by him. Raymond's figure flashed and appeared behind the Phantom Butterfly!

The Phantom Butterfly, which had turned around and was about to run away, directly hit the protective barrier on Raymond's body surface, lost its balance and finally fell to the ground, and once again made the panicked cry of "chi chi".

But this time the scream did not have the effect of sonic shock. And the Phantom Butterfly that fell to the ground immediately wrapped its body with two pairs of wings. The little face looking up at Raymond was full of regret and frustration.

Although the undead vine that Raymond pulled out of the sand dune had been imprisoned by Raymond, the spiritual fluctuations it released were cold and stagnant.

Raising his right hand, an invisible fire was condensed by Raymond, and it fell on the undead vine with a light flick. The rapidly spreading invisible fire covered it, and with the crackling explosion, the undead vine was burned to ashes after a few breaths.

But when this invisible fire appeared at Raymond's fingertips, the already terrified Phantom Butterfly trembled all over. While closing his eyes, he also screamed.

The short and sharp scream was not only crisp and pleasant. And it also contained a certain strange charm, which made Raymond a little dazed for a while.

As soon as this feeling arose in his heart, Raymond woke up.

Phantom sound!

This is definitely a phantom sound with an interference effect!

Therefore, Raymond interrupted the scream of the Phantom Butterfly with a cold snort, reached out and grabbed its slender neck, and pulled it in front of him.

The trembling Phantom Butterfly curled up its body more and more, and the two pairs of wings could not wrap its naked feet. The mark on its right ankle that penetrated into the flesh also oozes out blood, which drops on the yellow sand, making a faint fragrance spread.

Raymond held his breath when he smelled this fragrance, but the quick analysis of the chip he made showed that this fragrance seemed to be formed by a mixture of multiple flower fragrances and was not toxic.

And although the left hand that was stuck to its neck had an isolated protection, the cool, smooth and soft touch in the palm still surprised Raymond.

The body structure of creatures in the underworld is fundamentally different from that of carbon-based creatures in normal planes. Why does the skin of this phantom butterfly have such a touch? Could it be that this non-aggressive underworld creature has a special body structure?

Thinking of this, Raymond's left hand relaxed a little, and the phantom butterfly, who closed his eyes and waited for death, showed astonishment. The eyelids trembled several times before slowly opening. It carefully looked at Raymond's left hand that was stuck on its neck for a moment, and then made an extremely low chirping sound.

It seemed to be expressing something, but Raymond could not understand this language.

But seeing Raymond's thoughtful expression, the phantom butterfly's eyes lit up, and his lips moved slightly and the sound was no longer coherent, but he spoke in a pronunciation similar to ancient Toris!

"Don't, don't... I, I... Yes, yes... Please..."

The sweet and clear voice made every syllable it spoke sound as pleasant as the sound of spring water, and Raymond felt that the possibility of communication between the two sides had greatly increased!

The hand stuck on its neck was slowly loosened and withdrawn by Raymond, and the surprised Phantom Butterfly began to speak faster.

However, Raymond could not understand most of the content that Phantom Butterfly said, and as it said more and more, Raymond's heart sank.

Because this sign showed that the language used by Phantom Butterfly was probably not the ancient Thoris language, but a language whose pronunciation was closer to the ancient Thoris language.

Seeing that Raymond seemed very disappointed, the Phantom Butterfly, whose body was still shaking, became a little anxious, and his eyes were moist and then filled with tears.

"Don't worry, if you can understand what I said, then nod your head, if you don't understand, then shake your head..."

Raymond spoke, staring at the timid Phantom Butterfly in front of him, and spoke word by word in Gutoris, but the Phantom Butterfly's expression was still confused when he spoke, and Raymond, who frowned, was very helpless and stood up.

Seeing this, the Phantom Butterfly, whose eyebrows were twisted, showed a trace of panic, but it seemed to have thought of something, bit its lower lip and nodded firmly.

Raymond, who took over the right to speak, began to ask about its name, race, identity, and the reason for appearing here.

Although the Phantom Butterfly sometimes didn't understand, as Raymond's questions gradually increased and the content of the questions changed, the Phantom Butterfly could not give an effective answer, but through nodding and shaking its head, Raymond understood that it could indeed understand what he wanted to express.

When Raymond asked about its relationship with the Sand Ghost, the confused Phantom Butterfly took a long time to understand. Biting its lower lip, it finally opened the colorful wings that wrapped around its body, turned sideways and stretched out its naked right leg.

Raymond had noticed that there was a circle of deep marks on its ankle, but in fact there were more scars on its right thigh.

The wounds were like those formed by being tied by thorns. Although most of them have healed, there are still many sunken purple holes.

It seems impossible to describe it in words. After Raymond finished reading, the Phantom Butterfly bit its lower lip and slowly squatted down, and began to scratch on the yellow sand with its slender fingers.

A dot.

Then it drew a big circle outside.

Then it drew a wavy line not far from the circle...
