"That looks like we're pretty lucky, I've been worried about encountering other types of twisted souls in the fog, but it doesn't seem like we're so unlucky right now. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info" Pannis suddenly spoke to break the silence in the group: "While it's unfortunate to run into a twisted soul head-on as soon as you enter the Wandering Woodland, the rest of the story isn't that bad. Eva, turn off the lights, it's no longer needed. ”

"Is it out of the fog area, isn't there still fog?" Lina looked around, the woodland was still filled with fog, but because of the strong lights, she didn't notice that the fog was fading as everyone moved, and the visual distance began to become farther and farther away. It wasn't until Eva canceled the light technique that she continued to use that the girls realized that even without lights, they could faintly see the road under their feet.

The further you go, the lighter the fog becomes, and the clearer things you see, as if the world is rapidly becoming more beautiful from black and white. Soon, the thick mist that had blinded the girls' eyes turned into a faint veil covering the surface of the trees in the distance, and although it still existed, it could no longer cause interference.

It was then that the girls saw the inside of the wandering woodland where they were. The Wandering Woodland is a narrow woodland sandwiched between the Rodalunsel crater, and the maidens are now located closer to one side, and as soon as they look up, they can see the towering rocky peaks through the canopy, leaning down like a giant to look at the woodland at the foot of the mountain, and in the other direction, when they look up, they can only see the cascading canopy, and beyond that, there is only the sky that is occasionally visible between the canopies. But if you climb up to a few tens of meters high in the canopy, you can see that between the two towering peaks, the wandering woodland stretches forward from the valley like a green river, and the green river winds along the mountain to the left and right to the distance, and it is impossible to see the end at a glance.

After losing the interference of the dense fog, the girls who had been vaguely feeling extremely strange after walking a little distance outside the dense fog area finally knew that they were subconsciously surprised by something. Ever since everyone started entering the wandering woodlands, they hadn't heard any sounds from nature, nay, rather, from animals. There are no bird calls, no animal roars, no insect chirps, no wings flapping, no footsteps running, the surrounding environment is eeriely quiet, quiet as if it is not a dense forest at all, holding your breath, you can even hear the growth of leaves, and even the sound of flowers blooming and falling.

At this moment, the girls truly realized the meaning symbolized by the name of the forbidden land, the living are no longer the protagonists of this world, in the forest, the voices that symbolize the breath of life no longer exist in this world, leaving only the strange silence of wandering the woodland, like the strange silence of the world after death.

"It's so quiet. As soon as Lina spoke, she was startled by her own voice, which had previously distracted the girls due to the psychological pressure caused by the dense fog, so that everyone did not realize how abrupt her voice seemed in such a quiet forest, until she left the dense fog area, and the restrictions of her vision were reopened, and the girls finally reacted, and the normal volume sounded so shocking. The priest girl stuck out her tongue and lowered her voice like a whisper in her ear, even then it could be heard very clearly: "In this environment, I am a little afraid to speak, who knows if such an obvious voice will be heard by other creatures, and when the time comes, maybe it will cause trouble, and the eldest sister should blame me again." ”

"Who hears you?" Catherine asked, tilting her head, "who here can hear you?"

"...... Belch. Lina opened her mouth, and suddenly reacted, in the silent place of this kind of creature stunt, not only was there no sound, but even the listeners who listened to the sound were not even able to attract even a single animal. However, the priest girl still said stiffly: "Say, maybe it will attract those twisted souls." ”

"No, oops, why did you step on my foot, it hurts. Pannis jumped to the side with his feet in one leg and glared at Lina a few times before explaining, "Those are just twisted souls, they don't have the sense of hearing, sight, smell, and smell that can only be obtained by having a physical body, all they can do is to perceive souls with souls." ”

"Is this true of other kinds of twisted souls?" Catherine asked uncertainly, "or is it only the warped shadows we see?"

"Twisted souls are like that, no matter how peculiar their appearance is, they are still only a disembodied soul with no physical existence, even if the twisted appearance still has ears. "Of course, most of the distorted souls have a distorted image, and people can't tell where their ears are, like the ones over there that are mixed in all colors, can you find their ears?"

"Oh, my Lord Denia. Looking in the direction of Pannis's finger, Lina let out another brief exclamation. These distorted souls are incorporeal and unable to hear sounds, nor can they make any sounds themselves, and even a person with a keen sense like Pennis cannot detect their approach.

"Can a ghost thing be a twisted soul?" Catherine also let out a suppressed whisper, what appeared in front of her was really a little beyond her imagination, even beyond her cognition. It made her scream so out of shape.

Floating there are just a bunch of unrecognizable geometric symbols. No one can describe what it is that is a beautiful yellow spiral of two flat bands of light intertwined with each other, and it is equally impossible to find the words to describe the appearance of a green triangle composed of two opposite tips, the two triangles are like hourglasses, alternating between getting bigger and smaller.

Of course, there are not only these two, but more than a dozen similar beings wandering around there. The maidens could not determine the exact number of them, because they could not determine whether some of them existed, whether they were a whole with several symbols, or whether they should be counted separately. For example, a symbol composed of five spheres, which not only rotate on their own, but are also entangled with each other and coiled with each other, whether it is counted as a whole or as five separate individuals, there is a certain reason. There are also two tangent flat circles, which are like inflated balloons, constantly inflating outward, and when each of them expands to about a meter, it keeps collapsing inward, very similar to the lungs that are breathing.

"Don't come closer, they haven't sensed us yet. Pannis frowned, obviously not impressed by what he saw, and pouted, "It's so troublesome, why did you come across them now?"

"Why, are this type of twisted souls so hard to deal with?" Catherine asked in a low voice, "What are the characteristics of them that would make you show such an expression?" ”

"Of the sixteen twisted soul types we've seen, they're at least in the top five for threat, no, in my personal judgment, even in the top three. Pannis stopped everyone from moving on, rubbed his chin and said, "This kind of existence also belongs to those that have been distorted for a long, long time, and it will take at least thousands of years to form this kind of individual. Although no one knows why they became these chaotic geometric symbols, it is confirmed that all they have left is a strange fragment of souls, like a piece of shredded paper that has been torn apart and burned most of it, leaving only a few corners, except that it is the soul that has been torn to pieces. ”

"Don't describe it in such a horrible way. Lina couldn't help but glance at Pannis, habitually hiding behind the tree and looking around for a while, her voice lowered: "I see that they are floating, does it mean that they can fly?"

"They don't have hearing or sight, and you don't need to hide behind a tree and whisper. Pannis teased, "As for flying, they're flying right now." ”

"Now it's called floating, not flying. Lina gritted her teeth and glared at Pannis, dismissing his intention to sneak over to test the feel of her piercing short hair, before she wrinkled her nose and snorted, and said dissatisfiedly: "Don't play stupid, you should know what I mean." ”

"Well, you're right, they do fly, and they're not slow. Pannis pointed upwards, "Look up." ”

The six of them, including Dilly, looked up together, and then were taken aback. Between the canopies overhead, there seemed to be a number of similar beings floating, and although their bodies were obscured by the canopy, the colored halos emanating from them still revealed their location.

"That's a lot. Catherine frowned and said, "You rank them so high in terms of threat, which means that they are probably not as easy to deal with as Twisted Shadows." ”

"Of course it's not easy to deal with. Pannis nodded, "If warping shadows is affecting living beings, then these fragments of chaos are directly plundering souls. They are supposed to be the soul is torn apart, from the only remaining residue of the collection, the twisted shadow just wants to seek warmth, and these things are instinctively want to take more souls to make up for themselves, although this behavior is destined to have no results, but the damage they cause is real, once they are touched, the soul will suffer the same pain as tearing, and at the same time suffer serious injuries, a few contacts can turn a normal person into a deranged madman. And this kind of attack of theirs, unlike the soul attack caused by the environment, is a direct damage to the soul, the so-called soul shield mentioned before, will not have any effect, and they don't care if you are a living soul or a dead soul, as long as it is a complete soul, it is within their predatory range.
