Chapter 398 Shadows in the Darkness (3/3)
The twinkling light, the lonely path, the lost direction, everything seems harmonious and weird.
This closed and quiet environment could easily breed irritability and restlessness. Coupled with Vivi's previous words, everyone's hearts were even more shadowed, as if there was a pair of vicious and evil eyes staring at them in an unknown corner.
Luffy, who always has no tendencies in his head and does not know what fear is, naturally took the lead. He walked in the front, Zoro and Sanji followed closely, and Nami Usopp Chopper shook his shoulders, grabbed Zoro's clothes, followed behind them step by step. Vivi fell at the end, as if only the figures in front could bring her some sense of security.
"This...what is this? It doesn't look like a temple at all, but a haunted house." Nami took the initiative to raise the topic, and the dead silence around her made her feel no vitality.
"Haha..." Usopp laughed dryly, "Nami, don't talk about horror so easily. How could this place be a haunted house? It doesn't exist."
"Everyone, have you noticed it? We have been walking for almost an hour, but this temple seems to have no end at all. Can't we not be able to get out?" Chopper said with a sad face.
"No...no, can't it be, is it really a ghost here?" Nami was even more shocked and palpitations.
"Miss Nami, don't worry, there are no ghosts in this world, it's just a slightly more complicated maze. Your loyal knight will definitely take you out of this dark maze and rush to a bright and bright future!" Sanji's eyes flashed with red light, his face was filled with a crazy smile, and he was fantasizing about unhealthy scenes in his mind.
Wei Wei was shocked when she heard this. If she remembered correctly, the whisper that appeared in her ear before seemed to have mentioned the "maze"? Could it be that it was not her auditory hallucination before?
Wei Wei suddenly felt lost and stopped unconsciously. Suddenly, a light body behind her bumped into her, causing Wei Wei to stagger and almost fall.
"Ah? I'm sorry, yes..." The good education made Weiwei realize that it was her mistake at the first time, and hurriedly apologize. Then, a chill suddenly surged into her heart, her body seemed to be frozen, and her limbs were stiff.
Isn't she at the end of the team? Why are there someone bumping into the back? Could it be...
"Ah!!!" Weiwei immediately screamed up to 120 decibels, echoing in the winding maze.
Oops!
Everyone turned around without any hesitation and returned to Vivi.
"Enemy?" Zoroyi asked in a brief manner, holding a sharp blade to protect Vivi.
"Vivi, calm down, what happened?" Nami was also surprised. This was the first time she saw Vivi, who had always been steady, and she looked so scared. Her pupils unconsciously dilated. She sat on the ground limply, sweating all over, as if she had just been fished out of the pool.
"There are...someone behind me, and someone behind me just now!" After Vivi calmed down, she looked at Nami and the others with a help-seeking look. She didn't even dare to look back now, worried that the moment she looked back, she saw a hideous face with her eyes closed.
"No one, Vivi, have you read it wrong?" Nami was also a little scared when she heard this, but she still plucked up the courage to look at the shadow behind Vivi. Under the faint fluorescence, there was no one, which made Nami feel a little relieved.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Weiwei seemed very excited, "Someone had touched my body just now. I dare to swear, I know, the one behind me was not a human, but a ghost, a resentful soul that could not even transcend the soul in this temple!"
"How is it possible? How can there be such illusions in this world?" Nami laughed dryly and asked without looking back: "Luffy, there are no ghosts in this world at all, right?"
"Ah? No, ghosts do exist!" Luffy's stupid voice came.
Nami said as she said ashamed and said, "Luffy, you don't have time to make trouble with you now, so don't add fuel to the fire, okay?"
"I didn't make a fuss. Are the ghosts you are talking about just like the one floating in front of me?" Luffy said dissatisfied.
Ghosts? Floating?
Everyone's faces stagnated and turned around mechanically.
Sure enough, the "ghost" in his hand holding a burgundy umbrella and wearing a Gothic dress seemed to have no weight, floating in the air, and staring at them with a terrible look.
"Ah!!!" Nami Usopp and Chopper instantly let out a shocking scream, and hugged them in tears, "There is really a ghost!"
Seeing their appearance, Luffy became excited, "Look, I just said there is a ghost."
"Bastard, what's so happy about this kind of thing?" Nami and the others cursed angrily with tears in their eyes.
"Ah! Is it such a cute Miss Ghost? My deadly heart began to get restless again!" Sanji said with a stupid expression on his face.
"Ghost or resentful soul? Anyway, it's a guy who is difficult to deal with. I wonder if my sword can cut off the soul?" Zoro's eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
"Bohe, you guys, you guys are much more interesting than the invaders in the previous few times. Are you not scared?" Perona was flying gently in the air. Sanji's eyes were blurred below, and his body swayed uncontrollably.
"Invader? How did the invaders in the previous few times?" Although he was a little scared, Vivi still plucked up the courage to ask.
"Of course he is dead!" Perona's understatement answer made Chopper and others fall into an ice cave.
"It's over, are we going to be killed by evil spirits?" Nami shed tears of sorrow.
"I heard that the souls of those killed by evil spirits cannot be liberated. Can we change the way to die?" Usopp said in tears in silence.
"Bohe, I can't bear to kill you interesting little toys. In fact, they all couldn't find the exit in this chaotic alien maze of time and space, and killed themselves in endless despair."
"suicide?"
"Can't find the exit?"
"The Maze of the Different Dimension?"
Everyone's hearts are clear. Those who can pass the first level and enter this temple should not be underestimated. Even if they are placed on the great route, they are considered number one person. However, such a strong man would choose to commit suicide in the end, which shows how desperate they are!
"I remember that last time in Alabastan, wasn't Nightmare's method of temporarily imprisoning Brother Ace? We might be able to learn from Brother Ace and use violent means to break the maze and rush out!" Vivi found the flaws from Perona's words and suggested excitedly.
"Vivi, you are really too smart. We really don't need to follow the rules set by the enemy. It may be the best way to break the maze and jump out of the rules!" Nami and others said excitedly.
