Chapter 401: The Blue Stars (VIII)

Darkness enveloped the whole world.

When everyone reopened their eyes and looked around, they were surprised to find that everything had changed. Although they were still standing in place at the moment, nothing had changed, but everything else had changed. Whether it's stalactites, or the dancing flames, or those monsters, although they still maintain their original form, the colors have become completely obscure, and the whole world looks as if it is surrounded by a flowing black curtain, and not only that, but even the air gives people a cold and exciting feeling, just standing there, you can feel the stinging sensation on your skin, as if you are standing in the ice and snow.

Other than that, everything seems to be flattened, whether it's plants, animals, or the devils. Even the stones and stalactite pillars in front of the crowd no longer have a three-dimensional effect, and look as if they were some kind of flat ornament made of pieces of paper.

"It's ..............."

Looking at the scenery in front of them, many people's eyes widened in surprise, they still remember watching Jenn destroy a stalactite pillar and press it towards them. But the next moment, what happened to them? Could it be that they have been stoned to death by stalactites?

And at this moment, suddenly, a voice sounded.

"Here......... This is the Shadow Plane!? ”

Barty's eyes widened in surprise as he looked at what was presented to him, his eyes revealing disbelief in surprise.

"I was amazed, I had only read about this place in books, but I didn't expect to be here............"

Hear Barty. Everyone was stunned, and then they immediately subconsciously looked at Jenn. Let's be honest. Everyone had almost forgotten just now that the young man standing beside them was a rare dual-element holder. And it just so happens that one of his elements is the "shadow", as we all know, the element ruler can manipulate the element to easily do some things that others can't, and the passage to open the element plane is one of them.

It's just that in general, very few people actually do this, although it is said that the element realm is innate, not created by himself, but because of this, if people who are not strong enough want to do it rashly. Then there is a good chance of a backlash. What's more, not all elements have their own domain plane. For example, the dimensional dimension of a somatic element such as "power" is in the body of the holder. It's impossible to open up this kind of element realm for people to enter.........

Of course, the strength has reached the level of the elemental dominance of Tinidel, so it is natural that such a thing can be easily done. And although Jenn's strength is only at the elemental dominance level, due to the particularity of the shadow plane, it is not difficult for him to do this.

"That's right, this is the Shadow Plane."

In the face of everyone's inquiring eyes, Jenn nodded. Then he made a gesture.

"Alright, guys, let's get out of here quickly, the Shadow Plane is not a place where mortals can stay for long. If you don't want to get lost in the shadows and become a lonely ghost, then I advise you to leave early. ”

"So ......... on the other side of Nuo'an?"

"I've temporarily closed the passage to the shadow plane, and he can't expect to be able to come in for a while."

Hear Nadia's inquiry. Jenn was quick to answer, and then he took Valrhona's hand. Straight ahead. Seeing Jenn leaving, the others naturally hurriedly followed. Many of them had heard rumors about the shadow planes, although there were different references to these imaginary planes in many literature and scrolls. But the only thing that is certain is that this is definitely not a good place. It's not that they haven't heard the story of someone who strayed into the shadow plane and became a lonely ghost, so naturally they didn't want to die in this ghost place after finally escaping the attack of those devils, so they hurriedly followed.

And on this occasion, Carter also complains and angrily tells the crowd about what happened to Jenn and Nadia -- and like Jenn, he also encounters a group of eccentrics converted by the priesthood. And finally eliminate these annoying creatures, and just as Carter was about to clean up the battlefield and search, Noan suddenly appeared from behind like a ghost and attacked the unsuspecting adventurers and priests. Although Carter's reaction is fast, Noan, as a killer, naturally has an advantage in this regard. What's more, everyone had just gone through a vicious battle with strange monsters, and many people were injured, and they were caught off guard by Nuo'an, killing several people in a row. This was stopped by Carter, and then he immediately ordered the remaining priests to release the Holy Light Bullet to warn Jenn's side, and what happened after that was clear.

That being said, Carter's face was obviously rather gloomy, and it was no wonder that the adventurers he brought with him this time were all good brothers who had been born and died with him for many years. Although a few men have been damaged before, it is the glory of a warrior to die in the battle against monsters, but if it is stabbed in the back by a traitor, then it is a shame.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Carter."

Looking at Carter's expression, Nadia felt uncomfortable in her heart.

"Templar ........."

"Forget it, I know I don't blame you, after all, even I didn't see that kid had a problem. Now that I think about it, his previous performance was indeed weird, but ............ Forget it, it's useless to talk about it now. ”

Sighing helplessly, Carter shook his head, and then he looked at Jenn with a grim face.

"But I don't think that half-elf mongrel is a subordinate of the master messenger of all this."

"Oh? Why? ”

Hearing this, Nadia suddenly had doubts, to be honest, including her just now, many people thought that the half-elf must have something to do with the abnormal changes that happened here. Because of this, after hearing Carter's statement, many people, including Nadia, were stunned. And Barty, who was walking next to him, frowned even more and stared at him strangely.

"How is that possible? Mr. Carter, that half-elf must have chosen to attack us at this time, and it must have killed us completely. And......... Didn't he summon a lot of monsters too? ”

"It's a monster, and it's not the same thing as the monster we met."

Carter shrugged his shoulders at Barty's questioning.

"And before you arrived, we had a fight with those monsters, and at that time, those monsters killed people on sight, and even a few monsters ran to find trouble with the half-elf mongrel, if the other party was a group, then those monsters shouldn't attack that mongrel at all. But ..............."

At this, Carter frowned and looked at the girl who was walking quietly beside Jenn.

“……… That's the girl we're looking for? But she looks like ................"

"We don't know what's going on."

Of course, Nadia knew what Carter was trying to say, and in fact she was confused in her own heart at the moment. But now that this is the case, there is nothing she can do. Now we can only wait until we go back to the temple and report everything that happened here to Knight Josson, and then see what Knight Josson judges. Although she herself did not think that this girl looked like a saint, she was also aware of the orders of the Central Bishops' Conference. It is obviously impossible for the other party to pay attention to an ordinary girl, so it means that this girl must have some kind of secret hidden in her body that even she doesn't know.

According to Jenn, he was able to maintain the shadow passage for only a short time, fortunately, the time flow of the shadow plane was different from that of the main plane, so even if they escaped from the shadow plane, Noan and they would not be able to catch up immediately.

But that doesn't mean they'll be safe and sound in the shadow plane, in fact they've seen something lurking behind the dark shadows more than once -- they don't know what it is, and they don't want to know what it is. If it weren't for Jenn's possession of the Sword of the Shadow Moon, an artifact of the shadow plane, to suppress those shadow monsters to a certain extent, then I'm afraid they would have to face the same troublesome scene as when they fought with the demons.

But it's not necessarily much better now.

"Attention everyone, it's just ahead!!"

At this moment, Jenn's voice sounded, and then everyone saw him raise the Shadow Moon Sword in his hand high, swing forward, and then saw that in the direction of his sword, a gap suddenly appeared in the world that was originally full of shadows, and a dazzling white light emerged from it, like a lighthouse guiding everyone's path, and then they saw Jenn and Valrhona jump into the white gap without hesitation. Seeing this scene, others immediately followed and poured in.

The dazzling light filled everyone's eyes for a moment, and when the light faded, they found themselves standing at the entrance to the secret passage that had been before. Behind them, the original underground cavern was already in flames, thick smoke billowed from it, and screams and explosions could be faintly heard in them.

"It seems that our half-elf friend was treated quite warmly."

Glancing into the hollow underground, Jenn sneered and spoke. Of course, he knew what was going on there, in fact, when Jenn entered the shadow plane, he had already ordered all the Chaos Monsters in the entire underground cavern to trouble Noan through mental manipulation. And now it seems that the two sides are fighting in full swing.

Thinking of this, Jenn waved his hand at everyone.

"Alright, now let's get out of here." (To be continued......)
