"Huh? Where … where is he? "
At this time, the wind had calmed down, and a thick layer of dark clouds hung in the vast sky. The setting sun was gradually swallowed up by them, and the world looked as if it had been casually painted into a blurry mass with gray paint.
Not far away, on the reddish-brown ground, there was a shallow mark on the ground. Some of the sparse weeds had been pushed down, so it was hard to tell what had happened.
Snow was standing right next to the male posthuman, and it was near the edge of the ridge. Behind the edge of the ridge, the ground slowly dropped down, forming a depression.
Snow's confused expression could be vaguely seen through his thick beard. He stared blankly at the empty ground. Just as he was about to take a step forward to check on the situation, B.Rabbit's voice came from behind, "Snowy!"
"Huh?" He turned his bell-like eyes around, "Boss, why did you call me?"
There were about ten steps between Snow and the rest of them. B.Rabbit stood at the front of the group, his eyes half-closed with thick eyeliner and a heavy expression on his face.
"Snowy, don't move first," he said word by word in a serious tone, which was rare for him.
Sure enough, Snow did not move. He stood blankly in front of everyone's different gazes.
After a while, Lin Sanjiu spoke softly. The burly man's confused gaze fell on her, "Now, raise your leg slowly."
"What is he doing?" Snow was filled with doubts. He grumbled, "What is going on?" But he still followed her instructions and raised his leg. His body immediately swayed.
The third person to speak was Xueqin. Her usual stern expression had disappeared, leaving only cold sweat on her forehead, "Then, you have to take one step forward carefully. Try to walk as slowly as possible …"
However, it was too late before he could finish his sentence. As Snow was standing on one leg, he suddenly lost his balance. To maintain his balance, he dropped his leg back to the ground with a thud.
"Ouch!" he cried. Just as he was about to do it again, he heard B.Rabbit suddenly yell. Before he could understand what was going on, he spun around. Suddenly, the sky appeared in his field of vision. It turned out that his body had left the ground in an instant.
The man's roar was still stuck in his throat, but his body seemed to suddenly have a mind of its own. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the ground.
"Quick!"
Lin Sanjiu and B.Rabbit quickly leaped out of their hiding spot, not caring if they would be ambushed. One summoned his long saber, while the other flashed his claws. In the blink of an eye, they had reached the edge of the mountain ridge.
However, to their surprise, the ravine below was empty, with almost nothing but rough gravel.
"Didn't he fall on his head just now?" Rabbit asked in a hoarse voice.
Lin Sanjiu shook her head, "No … To be honest, both times were too fast. I didn't even see how they disappeared."
When the evolved human fell from the sky, Snow Cherry turned around to explain the situation to everyone. Everyone realized that something was wrong. It was a man who was clearly unconscious, but Snow Cherry's expression changed. Suddenly, his shoulders moved unnaturally.
From the looks of it, it didn't seem like he was about to wake up. Instead, it seemed like something was pushing him from below … Then, the speed at which the evolved person disappeared was even faster than Snow Cherry. In the blink of an eye, he had disappeared from the edge.
Initially, they thought that there was something in the ravine, so they asked Snow Cherry to leave the place silently. But now, it seemed that wasn't the case …
At this moment, the rest of the people rushed over. The twin sisters quickly summoned their defensive force field again. This time, the female voice that they heard just now did not announce the waiting time.
"We didn't assign a number to the enemy. This means … "One of the sisters, who had identical childlike hairstyles, had just finished the first half of her sentence when the other coldly added the second half of her sentence," There are no enemies here. Or rather, there is no one else but us. "
Everyone was stunned.
There were no enemies. Then, who took Snow Cherry and the other person away?
"Stop daydreaming. Let's go down and look for them," Lin Sanjiu was the first to speak. Lin Sanjiu was the first to speak, "Maintain this distance and don't go too far. If anything happens, call for help immediately."
Her voice was cold, and she said a few words quickly and methodically. Unknowingly, everyone moved according to her instructions.
The slope was very gentle. For posthumans, they could climb to the bottom in just a few steps. However, there was only a long and wide ditch at the bottom. There was nothing at all, only the wind of the wilderness blowing on his body. Hui Chuyan was a little scared. She quickened her pace and followed Lin Sanjiu. Bai Xiaoke called for the leader and the others also made their preparations, carefully checking the surroundings.
Bai Xiaoke and Xueqin were the most familiar with each other. Unknowingly, the two of them had become very close.
"Isn't it better to call him?" Bai Xiaoke was a little uncertain. She kicked away a rock beside her, "Maybe we can get an echo."
"What if we attract something?" Xueqin was also hesitant. She summoned a handful of noodles that looked like a horsetail whisk from her body and swept it around the ground, just in case they stepped into a trap.
"It can't be, right?"
Bai Xiaoke looked around. Not far behind her, Lin Sanjiu was talking to B.Rabbit on her shoulder with a serious expression. The remaining members of the group of five looked a little uneasy. They whispered to each other from time to time. Everything seemed normal, but she felt like something was missing …
She thought for a while but couldn't come up with a conclusion. She turned around and continued Xueqin's words, "We came down here in such a threatening manner. If there really is an enemy, they might have already known … Huh?"
She raised her voice and Xueqin immediately stopped, "What's wrong?"
Bai Xiaoke's face turned a little green. She finally realized what was missing. A very illogical question came out of her mouth.
"Have you … seen my leader?"
The gigolo was the result of her ability. It was impossible for Bai Xiaoke to lose contact with him — if it was an ordinary person who had not evolved, it would be like the person walking on the road and suddenly losing his right hand.
Xueqin's expression turned grim, "Your ability. Don't you feel it?"
"Yeah, I can feel it …" Bai Xiaoke's forehead was covered in a layer of sweat, "It feels like he's still nearby, but he's not moving. He won't come out even when I call him …"
It felt like she could sense the existence of her right hand, but she couldn't see or touch it.
"Seems like there's something wrong with this place," Xueqin made a prompt decision and immediately turned to the other side, "Let's go to Jiu and tell her about this."
Behind her, Bai Xiaoke let out a panicked sigh and hurried to catch up. As she walked, she said, "I tried to turn off the ability just now and call out to the Front Leader again, but it didn't work either …"
"Your leader is probably in the same situation as Snow Cherry. I don't know where he is. Maybe he's in the same place! If you can sense him, we might be able to save him … "Xueqin suddenly thought of this and her spirits rose. She waved at Lin Sanjiu and called out," Jiu! "
Lin Sanjiu stopped talking to B.Rabbit and raised her head to look at Xueqin.
"I have an idea. Maybe we can find —" Just as Xue Shao was about to speak, Lin Sanjiu interrupted him and poured a bucket of cold water on him. "Where's Bai Xiaoke?"
"Huh?" Xueqin was stunned. She immediately felt a chill down her spine.
When she turned around, she realized that there was only brick-red soil behind her. The weeds rustled in the wind.
She could still see the tire that was covered in a thick layer of mud and the rock that Bai Xiaoke kicked away. However, Bai Xiaoke was nowhere to be seen.
"She … she was behind me just now —" Xueqin couldn't believe that she didn't hear anything, "That's impossible. If someone kidnapped her, why didn't I hear anything?"
"That's not normal!"
Lin Sanjiu cursed inwardly. She raised her voice and shouted to the people around her, "Everyone, stop! Let's go up the slope and leave this place!"
The twin sisters looked at her doubtfully. They seemed unwilling to leave just like that. The rest of them were also hesitant. As long as it was Lin Sanjiu's order, Hui Chuyan was very efficient. She immediately held onto a protruding rock and started climbing up.
"What are you waiting for? Get up there first!" B.Rabbit was getting irritated. He roared and everyone started moving.
The slope was neither steep nor long. It was easy to get down and not difficult to get up.
However, it was precisely this short slope with no suspense that caused everyone's face to darken after climbing up.
Another person was missing.
"517 was right beside me just now!" Green Melon looked like he was about to cry. He held onto the edge of the ridge and looked down in disbelief. However, there was nothing down there. There was nothing. "I only looked away for a second!"
B.Rabbit was so angry that he wanted to dig three feet into the ground, but he couldn't do anything about this place. He shouted in a hoarse voice, "Move back! Let's get out of this place first!"
While everyone hurriedly moved back, Lin Sanjiu took out the [Dog Frisbee] again and held it in her mouth.
She remembered that the sudden change had taken place on the line where the lights had gone out. So, it was probably safe to go back to that line, where the lights flashed again?
It felt like this idea made sense.
However, Lin Sanjiu held the frisbee in her mouth and retreated for a minute. When the lights still didn't come back, her face turned grim.
She was a hundred percent sure that she had already retreated past the "lights out line".
The edge of the "pedestal" seemed to be … growing. (To be continued.)
