Mystery: Mr. Witch and Ms. Hunter

Chapter 39 Kingdom of God
"This place is really weird..."

Venata quietly moved closer to Altaïr, her index finger resting lightly on the trigger guard of the steam rifle.

"Let's check the environment first, and then start exploring. We don't know if the flow of time inside and outside is the same. It would be very dangerous to rashly decide to stay here."

Altaïr nodded in agreement and stepped back, motioning for Venata to use her Hunter abilities to find a way out.

Vinata took two steps forward, first adjusted her position, looked at the sun in the sky, then leaned over to observe the plants growing at the bottom of the tree, and turned over the stones to carefully look for tiny traces. After about five minutes, she stood up and shook the dirt off her hands.

"How about it?"

Altaïr asked impatiently.

"Needless to say?" Venata spread her hands, "There is no way at all."

Then why are you so proud... Because of anger, the blood vessels in Altaïr's temples were throbbing. After a long time, he exhaled and tried to calm his voice.

"Haven't you been promoted? Finding your way in the forest should be a hunter's specialty."

Altaïr forced his tone to be gentle.

"Hunters have their limits. What are you thinking?"

Venata did not take Altaïr's provocation seriously.
"The sunlight here has stagnated. Plants seem to rely on that wonderful spiritual light for growth. That light is evenly distributed in every corner of the Twilight Kingdom, so there is no difference in plant growth. In other words, the environmental characteristics here are completely different from those in the outside world, and the relevant experience is meaningless."

"I just tried to use the wild plants here as materials to perform a small path-finding ritual magic. However, this place seems to be able to isolate spirituality to a certain extent. The spirituality contained in the orange-red dusk directly blocked the path of my ritual. Even this rare path-finding ritual magic in the Hunter Path doesn't work. I have no other choice."

Altaïr frowned. This space was much wider than he had imagined. If they really had to search on foot, it would take them forever to find it. Although Altaïr's education was limited to a church school, he also understood that if light was also stopped, people would not be able to "see" things.

The two's current way of perception completely relies on the resonance between their own spiritual intuition and the spiritual environment around them. Limited by the range of spiritual influence, their visual range is only a circle with a radius of 20 meters. Although Vinata's sequence is higher, her sequence is not known for her spiritual strength. The actual field of vision is only about 30 meters in radius. Even if the two want to climb up and look far, they cannot see.

This is a bit difficult... Altaïr tapped his temple with his fingers, but the touch of the hard object he was not used to made his eyes light up. He quickly untied the pendulum hanging from his wrist and began to silently recite prayers in Hermetic.

I actually forgot about this... I hope this pendulum from Mr. World, who seems to be an angel, can be of some use. After reciting this thought, Altaïr returned his attention to the pendulum with some trepidation.

The yellow quartz pendant was still for a while, and then slowly began to swing in one direction. The amplitude was not large, but it was extremely stable.

Fortunately, it worked... Altaïr secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he brought this pendulum, otherwise he would have had to force his way in blindly. Although Sister Vespe did not limit the number of times or the length of time one could enter the Twilight Kingdom, it was very dangerous to stay in this completely unfamiliar environment for too long.

This danger not only comes from the monsters that may appear in the unfamiliar environment, but also from maintaining the material and spiritual exchanges in this environment for too long, which will bring additional risks to Altaïr and the others who do not belong here.

For example, currently Altaïr and Venata can directly obtain spirituality from the environment to use their extraordinary abilities, but the extraordinary abilities and spirituality here do not seem to be brought outside. If you use up your spirituality here, even if you can replenish your spirituality at dusk, you will most likely face the risk of losing control after you go out because the false spirituality disappears.

……

After about four or five hours, Venata and Altaïr were still walking through the dense forest. This forest filled with orange spiritual mist seemed to have no end. The range of spiritual intuition was always filled with white trees that looked like towering giant swords. Occasionally, they could hear a few strange birdsongs, but because the distance was too far, Altaïr and the others could not sense what the other party looked like.

It was a strange experience, especially the sudden loss of sight and the gift of a whole new sense, which I knew so well, as if it were the original.

"Are you sure there's nothing wrong with your divination?"

Venata asked Altaïr again with suspicion. This was the umpteenth time she had asked a similar question. "It's not that I don't trust you, but when I was in the East District, I saw too many men who were very confident at the beginning but ended up having problems."

"Alright, alright, I don't know why you, an old virgin who has never had a boyfriend, like to imitate others in making dirty jokes?" Altaïr said angrily, "Now keep quiet... As for whether I can do it, you can come to me tonight to discuss similar issues."

"Damn it, how did you know that?"

Miss Hunter's expression suddenly became interesting.

"Gagran told me."

Altair said this without turning his head. Of course, this was not because he was pretending to be cool, but because when he relied on his spiritual intuition, he could "see" it even without turning his head.

"!! Why does she say everything?"

Vinata's face turned red all the way to her ears, but fortunately it was not very obvious under the spiritual light here.

"Have you forgotten what her nickname is?"

Altaïr suppressed his laughter.
"But I'm not bored enough to ask such a question. I was lying to you just now. Gagran only told me that you like to make dirty jokes."

Vinata made a sound like a kitten whose tail was stepped on, and then she walked on quietly without saying anything else.

Tsk, you want to fight me? Altaïr shook his head. His world was finally quiet. The only sound in the world was the clattering of their footsteps on the dead leaves.

However, not long after the two stopped talking and walked quietly, Vinata suddenly stopped and closed her eyes, as if she was listening carefully to something.

"Did you find anything?"

Seeing this, Altaïr no longer cared about the previous embarrassment and took the initiative to step forward and ask.

"There is a sound of water ahead, as if a river is passing by."

Vinata said with a slightly blushing face, her voice also lowered an octave.

To be honest, when she was quiet and silent, she was actually quite beautiful if you looked closely...Altaïr was stunned, and his thoughts went to strange places again.

Is this what they call "What a nice girl, but she only has a mouth?"

(The test run will start next week, and I am required to try to write 4000 words a day, so I will try to update twice a day in the next two days, with more than 2000 words each time, and see the effect this week)

The following chapter of Twilight Kingdom is quite controversial. I plan to make corresponding changes in April when my schedule is more relaxed. New readers can jump directly to Chapter 54. It will not affect the reading of the following chapters for the time being. I didn’t expect that this book would be signed at that time. There are corresponding changes in the outline. I hope everyone understands
