745 Retreat into darkness
What now?
Donnie hesitated.
Normally, if there is no further passage carved downward, Donnie should have stopped, or returned the way he came, and if he didn't give up, he should have looked everywhere to see if there was any other way down. But at this time, an uncontrollable thought suddenly popped up in Donnie's mind, that is, to continue walking, calmly walking into the eternal darkness.
Donnie shouldn't have acted rashly until he knew the depth of the pit, but he made a decision that he shouldn't have made so soon.
Taking a step forward, the ubiquitous darkness suddenly swallowed Donnie.
Immediately, Donnie's mind fell into chaos, and a huge fear completely engulfed him, and time became incomparably long at this moment.
The fourth king of Noah's kingdom was being destroyed.
When Donnie fell into darkness, the newly built royal palace of Noah's kingdom, the Golden Lion Palace, was besieged by demons from deep underground, and in addition to the famous Golden Lion Palace, other important places in the royal capital were also within the range of the demons.
The strength of these demons is generally average, and most of the real powerhouses in Hell will not be eyeing this world that is already dilapidated and may be completely destroyed at any time because of the movement of the gray hand.
Although the strength of the demons is not very good, there are enough of them, and there are some demonized people who have lost their minds and have fallen into complete madness to obey the demons.
These two points alone can already bring the possibility of destruction to the stormy city of Otto, not to mention that the extraordinary people under the royal family of the Noah Kingdom have completely fallen to the demon without a sound.
Although some transcendents still maintained their positions, their numbers were too small to be sustained in the face of a large number of demons.
The Golden Lion Palace completely fell within a quarter of an hour of being surrounded, and the spiritual weirdness without accurate goals and sanity has not been able to destroy this human kingdom, and the king of Noah's kingdom is constantly changing his location. But what the spirit monsters failed to do was done later, that is, the demons did it.
Soon after the Golden Lion Palace was captured by the demons, the king of Noah's kingdom, who had not been able to escape again, was killed by a mechanical snake demon, announcing the end of the kingdom.
And when the royal bloodline of Noah's Kingdom, to be precise, all the optional heirs of Noah's Kingdom fell at the feet of the demons, Donnie, who was in full darkness, ushered in his own turnaround.
It has to be said that in the real world, Donnie stayed in this darkness for no more than an hour, but in his own opinion, this time should be extended indefinitely.
Downey himself couldn't tell how long he stayed in the dark, and the pressure was enough to drive the mentally undetermined person crazy, but Downey persevered.
Still, Donnie was a little groggy.
"There is light!"
Donnie's eyes lit up, he had been in the darkness for too long, and at this moment he didn't know that the so-called too long was actually a problem with his senses.
The mechanical body that the mechanical demons modified for Donnie originally had a timekeeping function, but it had already been destroyed in the battle between Donnie and the mechanical demons, so Downey was still unsure how long he had been in the darkness.
The point of light was not bright, at first glance it looked like the light of a candle, but as Donnie looked at it, the light grew brighter and brighter until the darkness was dispelled.
At this moment, Donnie sensed the wind flowing, the breeze blowing on his body, bringing with it the smell of earth and the scent of flowers; The sound of birds also sounded in my ears.
The shadows of the trees swayed, and the spots of light cast on the ground kept jumping, from dead silence to full of life, and the whole process of transformation did not even take a second.
Downey stood under a huge cedar tree, his body completely obscured by the shadow of the tree.
Looking around, the most rustic question could not help but pop up in Downey's mind, that is, what is this place?
Coming here from the darkness of fear, Donnie didn't quite adjust to it at first.
However, Donnie's adaptability was okay, and after the initial surprise and doubt, he began to think about what to do next.
"The trees around are real?"
It's not just the half-finished general eye that has come to this conclusion, but Downey himself has seen it the same way.
Other than that, there wasn't anything around that was killing, and there was no defensive circle or anything like that, so it was like a real paradise.
The road was at the foot of Donnie, it was a path, it didn't seem to be many people walking, Downey decided to go ahead in line with the law of coming, after all, he couldn't stand here all the time, he had to start moving.
As he walked along the path hidden in the forest, Donnie took a closer look at his surroundings, and it was not an exaggeration to describe the place as birdsong and flowers.
A variety of rare flowers can be found here, but the environment here does not seem to be in keeping with the environment that some plants need to grow. Other than that, Downey really didn't find anything.
As time passed, Downey was almost strolling, and even though I didn't know if it was true or not, something that seemed nice still made people feel better.
It wasn't until Donnie saw a corner of the eaves in the shadows of the trees that he became alarmed.
Donnie appeared at this place for some reason, and although it seemed relatively safe for fans, he never let his guard down.
Turning a corner, Donnie finally saw signs of human activity, and as for the path under his feet, it could have been trampled by wild beasts in addition to man-made.
It was a white house, glowing in the sun, with two floors and the door open, and Downey could see that the room was full of clocks, and the owner of the house was sitting in a rocking chair under the porch.
Ever since he was 'called' into this world, Donnie has always had the feeling of being led by someone else, and this other person is naturally the fake watchmaker in front of him.
Until now, Donnie doesn't think that the real watchmaker Don has calculated himself, and he insists that the person in front of him is an inexplicable existence and uses the identity of a watchmaker.
In fact, Donnie's guess was not wrong, and the presence in front of him was indeed not the watchmaker himself, nor could it be him.
"I thought you could come over sooner, it seems that those uncompetitive guys are more persistent than I thought."
The watchmaker also had a chaise longue next to him, but he didn't invite Donnie to his side.
"What exactly is your purpose?" Donnie was wary of the man in front of him.
