Hello, is this a letter addressed to Demon Fortress?

However, the collapse of the dream did not last long.

Soon, Lin Gui fell into another nightmare.

Fire scene.

126 charred corpses.

The nobles\' mockery.

The cheerful clinking of glasses.

Those sounds, those images, came flooding back again.

But Lin Gui ignored him.

Because it\'s no longer important.

He has found his target.

In his spatial perception, at the final point where this passageway intersected with the direction Eve was pointing, he had already covered the entire area with spatial markers.

And on the original tunnel wall, there are places marked by spatial markers.

A large gap has appeared.

On the ground with the gap, lay several rough human-shaped silhouettes.

The outline clearly reflects the state.

coma.

limp.

Not moving at all.

Five silhouettes lay there, lying haphazardly.

Like five abandoned shells.

Among these five humanoid figures, there is one more person.

Standing.

Lin Gui had no idea who that was.

Guxin the Demon King.

He remained lucid.

This was something Lin Gui hadn\'t expected.

Deep within the silent abyss, where even those who ascend to epic ranks are instantly lost.

Where everyone else had fallen, Guxin was still able to stand.

It seems he does have the means to remain rational inside.

Lin Gui didn\'t think about it any further.

He proceeded according to the original plan.

Using spatial coordinates, apply the levitation spell in the direction indicated by spatial sensing.

An unconscious silhouette disappeared from the cover of spatial markers.

Lin Gui knew he had caught him.

As long as he maintains the magic output of the levitation spell, he can carry the people he rescues and float away from here.

the second.

The third.

the fourth.

the fifth.

There are five people whose silhouettes are clearly defined.

Including Cass and Rogge, this number is just right.

A hint of doubt flashed through Lin Gui\'s mind.

They entered in two separate trips.

If everyone is lost, how can they come together?

Perhaps it was the Demon King Guxin who gathered them together.

Lin Gui looked at the silhouette of the person standing there.

Then, to his surprise, he discovered...

The other party has disappeared.

Did she already realize his intentions, so she sat on his staff?

If his senses had not been completely stripped away, he would have already recognized himself.

Did they recognize that they were there to rescue them?

Lin Gui wasn\'t entirely sure.

Because he is still trapped in a nightmare.

The nightmares and hellish memories he didn\'t want to recall still echoed in his ears.

He was simply absorbed in his own spatial perception and subconsciously ignored them.

Now that we\'ve confirmed that the person has been rescued.

Lin Gui made the decision.

Let\'s start heading back.

He looked up instinctively.

Above his head.

A white passageway, marked by countless spatial markers, stretches out into nothingness.

In the center of the passageway, a safe white route guided him.

Unlike the bumpy ride downhill.

This time, by following the white route, he was able to safely avoid the walls and cross the Silent Rift.

Lin Gui increased his speed.

Manipulating an invisible staff, they continued to ascend.

high speed.

It\'s more than ten times faster than when it came.

Lin Gui estimated that he would reach the place where the fog was thinner in no more than an hour.

Then you can regain your senses.

however.

Just as he was immersed in spatial perception and continuously ascending.

Suddenly.

A voice exploded in my ear.

\"Do you... want to leave?\"

The sound was very soft.

It was so light it seemed to come from a very far place.

Yet it was so clear, like a whisper in my ear.

Lin Gui was stunned for a moment.

He snapped out of his spatial daze.

Then, he discovered...

Another nightmare disappeared.

Fire scene.

Dead body.

The nobles\' mockery.

They\'ve all disappeared.

Instead, there was a pure white expanse.

as well as.

A girl.

She was standing there.

Not too far from him, not too close.

Wearing a pure white long dress, the hem of which draped down, she seemed to blend into this white space.

Her hair was also white and very long, reaching all the way down to her waist.

Her features were so exquisite that they seemed unreal.

It\'s not human beauty.

It is some kind of higher-level existence, manifested in human form.

The beauty of concepts.

It\'s so perfect that there isn\'t a single flaw.

So perfect that it\'s almost unbearable to look at.

Her eyes were pale gold, like molten gold, or like the pupils of an ancient god.

At that moment, those eyes were looking at him.

No emotions.

There is no temperature.

Just watching.

Like looking at an object.

Like looking at a speck of dust.

Lin Gui frowned.

The nightmare of the Silent Abyss is woven from one\'s own memories.

If you haven\'t experienced it or seen it, it\'s unlikely to appear out of thin air.

And the girl in front of me.

Lin Gui was certain that he had never seen her before.

Moreover, if he had seen that face, that kind of beauty, he could never forget it.

.......

Could it be that the mental derangement caused by the fog could conjure up a non-existent hallucination out of thin air?

Lin Gui frowned.

Within his spatial perception, he continued to climb.

The white passageway marked by spatial markers was rushing backward at high speed.

He intended to ignore the other person\'s presence.

Just like ignoring the psychological trauma caused by those nightmares.

however.

Seeing that Lin Gui was ignoring him, the other person tilted his head.

That stunningly beautiful face remained expressionless.

then.

She moved.

It only lasted a moment.

She then came to Lin Gui.

Lin Gui didn\'t even see her take a step.

It just appeared out of nowhere in front of him.

I was so close I could see the curve of her eyelashes.

I was so close that I could feel some indescribable... aura emanating from her.

It\'s not cold.

It\'s not hot.

It is nothingness.

It\'s like facing an abyss where there\'s nothing at all.

Then, she extended her jade-like fingers.

He poked Lin Gui\'s cheek.

a bit.

Two times.

Three times.

Lin Gui did not move.

He remained immersed in his spatial perception and continued to climb.

The girl tilted her head to look at him.

Then, her fingers moved to his hair.

I picked up a strand.

Loosen up.

He plucked another strand.

It loosened again.

Her movements were very gentle.

His face remained expressionless.

Like a curious cat playing with a ball of yarn.

Lin Gui ignored him.

It continues to climb.

The girl\'s actions began to escalate.

Her fingers slid down his hair to his robes.

He grabbed the collar of the priest\'s robe.

Turn it over and take a look.

Then I flipped back.

Then she began to fidget with the ties on her robes.

Untie it.

Tie it up.

Untie it again.

Tie it back on.

Lin Gui still ignored him.

The girl paused for a second.

Then, she slipped her fingers into the seams of her robe.

She gently poked his side.

Lin Gui frowned slightly.

But he didn\'t open his eyes.

The girl seemed to have discovered something interesting.

She began to gently tickle his side.

a bit.

Two times.

Three times.

Lin Gui\'s body tensed slightly.

But he still didn\'t open his eyes.

The girl\'s actions became increasingly outrageous.

Her hand began to move upwards.

It glides across the side of the waist.

It glides over the ribs.

It slid across my chest.

then.

Just as her fingers were about to touch Lin Gui\'s belt.

Lin Gui opened his eyes.

Lin Gui opened his eyes.

then

He moved.

A hand grabbed her wrist.

With his other hand, he grabbed the hem of her skirt.

tear

A large piece of white fabric was torn off.

Then Lin Gui used the torn cloth to tightly bind her hands and feet.

It was tied in a knot that couldn\'t be tied.

then

He kicked it away.

He sat up straight and closed his eyes.

He continued to manipulate the staff, climbing ever higher.

In spatial perception, the white passageway was still rushing backward at high speed.

however.

next second.

The girl who had been tied up loosened herself.

The fabric slipped off her body like smoke released from its confinement.

The skirt hem automatically returned to its original shape.

It is perfectly intact.

Not a trace was left.

She came to Lin Gui again.

This time, she didn\'t lay a hand on her.

I just stood there and watched him.

The indifference in those pale golden eyes was gone.

Instead, it carries a certain

Complex emotions.

Guilt.

surprise.

There was also a hint of...curiosity that I couldn\'t quite explain.

She stared at it for a long time.

Then, she reached out her hand.

Two things appeared out of thin air.

A piece of letter paper.

A pen.

The format of the letter paper is very special.

The top is printed with delicate patterns, and there is a small postmark mark in the lower right corner.

If Lin Gui saw this, he would be very surprised.

Because that is.

Seven Copper Coin Post Office offers custom-made letters for its customers.

The girl looked down at the letter in her hand.

Her brows furrowed slightly.

Then she started writing.

The pen tip glides across the paper.

I wrote a few words.

stop.

Looking at those words.

She wrote and stopped intermittently, and finally tore the letter to shreds.

The fragments drifted down and disappeared into the white nothingness.

She remained silent for a long time.

Then, I picked up the pen again.

Regenerate an envelope.

Then the pen tip flew across the paper.

Lines of text appeared.

After writing the last sentence, she put down her pen.

He reached his hand towards his chest.

Then a key-like object was removed.

She put the key into the envelope.

Seal it.

Then, she raised her head and looked at Lin Gui.

He kept his eyes closed, immersed in spatial perception.

He still believed that her appearance was merely an illusion caused by the fog he was suffering from.

She floated down in front of him.

Reach out.

He carefully and precisely slipped the envelope into Lin Gui\'s unseen storage space.

then.

She took a step back.

Look at him.

Those pale golden eyes still held gratitude.

It is complicated.

But in the end, only a faint sense of powerlessness remained.

She turned around.

Walk towards that white depths.

step.

Two steps.

Three steps.

Her figure began to fade.

It was as if it had merged into this white nothingness.

It eventually disappeared.

Unbeknownst to them, a letter had been stuffed into their storage space.

Lin Gui focused his attention and drifted towards the exit along the spatial coordinates.

He continued to fly faster, quickly arriving at the place where his senses were completely deprived.

almost.

almost.

He could feel the surrounding fog thinning.

Those confused and disorienting perceptions are gradually lessening.

First comes hearing.

In the endless silence, a faint sound suddenly arose.

Very faint.

Like the sound of the wind.

Like pebbles that occasionally slip off a rock face.

Then there\'s touch.

He felt pain.

My whole body aches.

The pain came from every inch of skin, from every bone.

He looked down at himself.

Then he froze.

He looks like a bloodied man now.

His robes were soaked in blood and clung to his body.

His scalp was torn open, and blood flowed down his forehead, blurring his vision.

There are several deep wounds on my arm that expose the bone.

On his shoulder, flesh was torn and rolled up, revealing the faint white bone underneath.

The vision was tinged with blood.

It was obvious that the blood from the scalp had been cut open and had gotten into the eye.

Just then, Shadow Blade Lin\'s voice rang out.

\"What is that location-marking spell you have?\"

Her voice was filled with undisguised surprise.

Soul light drifted out from the glass bead and condensed into a shape around him.

Those pale blue eyes were staring at Lin Gui as if he were looking at a monster.

\"You really pulled that person out from the depths of the silent abyss...?\"

\"From beginning to end, I never lost my way or fell into the abyss.\"

\"How...how did you do that?\"

She looked at the figures being manipulated by the levitation technique.

Looking at those unconscious silhouettes.

He fell silent.

Lin Gui did not answer.

The Awakening spell returned to its effect, and his correct perception returned, allowing him to feel the pain in his body more clearly.

But he didn\'t have time to check his own condition.

He looked at those who were being manipulated by the levitation spell.

It was Morpheus and his group.

The young man\'s face was deathly pale, devoid of any color.

Dry, cracked lips and sunken eyes.

His body was covered in wounds, some of which had become infected and emitted a faint stench of decay.

The most serious problem was his legs.

The area below the right knee was a bloody mess, with the bone exposed.

The situation was similar for everyone else.

Some arms were twisted into bizarre angles.

Some had sunken chests and their breathing was so weak that it was almost imperceptible.

Some of their entire faces were covered in blood, making their features unrecognizable.

Lin Gui quickly made a judgment.

Their injuries are very troublesome.

We must leave as soon as possible.

Treatment must be started as soon as possible.

He swallowed the blood that rose in his throat.

Then he turned around and said to those behind him:

\"Demon King, hold on tight!\"

However, there was nothing behind him.

The demon king that Lin Gui had imagined sitting on the throne did not appear.

He was stunned for a moment.

Shadow Blade Lin\'s voice came through:

\"That demon king is very powerful.\"

\"To remain clear-headed even in that deep abyss.\"

She paused.

\"Down there, he cast a spell, causing these people to hang behind your staff.\"

He didn\'t sit down.

Lin Gui looked at Morpheus and the others.

Indeed, there were spiderweb-shaped threads connecting them to the staff.

The thin lines glowed with a faint red light, like some kind of magic.

\"Why didn\'t he come out with us?\" Lin Gui asked.

Shadow Blade Lin smiled.

It was impossible to tell whether the laughter was mocking or something else.

\"Only he himself knows.\"

She paused.

\"But I have to remind you of something.\"

\"Your health is in very bad shape.\"

\"You have no idea how many times you\'ve blindly banged your head against the wall.\"

\"If you don\'t want to bleed to death, leave now.\"

Lin Gui was silent for a second.

Then, he suppressed his doubts.

Manipulate the staff and continue climbing upwards.

Export is getting closer.

Getting closer.

at last.

The field of vision suddenly opened up.

Moonlight streamed down.

Fresh air filled my lungs.

Lin Gui saw the night sky beyond the Rift Abyss.

I saw those familiar rock walls.

Before he could even see where Eve and the others were waiting to meet him, he was caught off guard.

He felt a wave of dizziness.

It\'s black in front of you.

His body slumped softly off the staff.

Eve, who had been guarding the entrance, rushed over instantly.

\"Lin Gui!\"

Her voice was filled with anxiety.

Ash and Hannah quickly followed.

Eve helped the fallen Lin Gui up, looking at his blood-covered body and his pale face.

Those purple eyes were filled with panic.

\"Lin Gui! Lin Gui!\"

She shouted.

But Lin Gui could no longer hear any other sounds.

Excessive blood loss.

He fainted.
