Light Barrier

Chapter 493

A wisp of blazing fire spread in all directions.

Turned into hundreds of wisps of fire.

Li Chen stared at this scene in confusion...

My own 【Episode of the Source】 is an ability that requires constant "rotation" to maintain a 360-degree field of vision. This is already an extremely powerful mental ability.

And Gu Shen's scope of exploration was even wider than his own.

Hundreds of faintly burning fire particles floated away and surrounded everyone.

Everyone felt a faint warmth.

“Is this Dongzhou’s ‘S-level’?”

Behind the team, Mo Hongyi narrowed his eyes and murmured: "Isn't this kid the kind of pervert whose mental power is a level higher than his own?"

"It's very possible, maybe it will be stronger."

Zhu Xiao said softly: "In Dongzhou, there is another young evildoer named 'White Sleeves'. Brother Gu is now as famous as him. S-level characters are all capable of fighting across borders, and cannot be judged by common sense."

"At the third level, the mental stability is a big level higher than one's own strength... Isn't that too scary?"

Mo Hongyi sighed in disbelief: "Judging from the current public information, there should be only one person in the entire investigation corps who can do this..."

Hearing this, Zhu Xiao smiled: "For us, that is a natural chasm. Although this step is difficult for such monsters, there is still a chance to break through. I think...Brother Gu's mental power may not be It will be weaker than that 'little monster' in the first team."

"That's because you didn't fight that little monster..."

Mo Hongyi murmured in a low voice, "That guy is a real pervert!"

He looked at the fire flakes fluttering in the distance to the end of the snowy wind. His eyesight could no longer capture the wisp of fire that Gu Shen spread. These fire flakes contained extremely fine spirits and were purely used to explore the path.

Even if Mo Hongyi is not a spiritual extraordinary person, he can still feel that these overflowing spiritual powers are not very powerful.

He scratched his head and said in a voice that only he could hear.

"Gu Shen...can he really compete with that little monster in terms of mental strength?"

...

...

Missions outside the fortress are indeed boring.

Even if there is a public channel where you can chat... the time on the road can still make people feel bored.

Humans are not machines. They are always on the road and will definitely feel tired.

Mentally, as well as physically.

After nearly ten days of trekking, the atmosphere of the entire team became a little gloomy. Fortunately, there were no "accidents" along the way, and the team successfully arrived at the destination of the mission.

The broken snow mountain known as the "maze".

Looking from a distance.

Snow was flying all over the sky, coming from the entrance of the canyon in the distance.

It was as if the god had cut the snow-capped mountain in half with an axe, revealing only a dark, deep and narrow entrance.

At this moment, it was Li Chen who was responsible for detecting the fluctuations of the source material at the forward position.

【The Eye of the Origin】 is spinning and spinning——

"everything is normal."

Li Chen's voice sounded in the command channel.

The expressions of the other people in the team became obviously excited. The moment they step out of the giant wall on a mission, they may encounter danger at any time... If they can reach the "maze" safely, the mission will be half successful. !

Gu Shen followed everyone's gaze and looked at the canyon.

He narrowed his eyes.

Although the "mental induction" mission along the way was a three-person rotation, in fact, he never relaxed his vigilance... The fire flakes scattered by the blazing fire would float quietly when he was not on the induction mission. In the cold wind of the 【Old World】, follow yourself.

An extra layer of protection, extra peace of mind.

When looking at the magnificent snow mountain called "Maze".

A strange feeling suddenly came over Gu Shen's heart... He could feel the blazing fire jumping violently.

Is there anything in this maze that can be linked to the blazing fire?

Or is it an object connected to the "Pluto's Qi" in his own blazing fire?

Because this induction is too weak.

Gu Shen didn't have time to feel it carefully. After a moment, it disappeared and never surged again.

Looking at the maze again, I just felt that it was a silent and dead thing.

The original throbbing and sensation seemed to be just an illusion...

At this moment, Yuan Yuan's voice sounded.

"Wait a minute..."

He stretched out a hand to signal the team behind them to slow down and stop where they were.

Gu Shen looked at the captain.

This is the only "fourth-level transcendent" in the team. Could it be that he sensed something strange?

"Su He, did the 'Essence Sensor' react strangely?"

Yuan Yuan talked to the deputy captain in the command channel.

"everything is normal."

Hong Zhong's team was completely wiped out in the maze mission to investigate the legion's original plan. Their mission was only to detect the feasibility of the thirty-eighth route... Theoretically, they would not be able to get out of the maze, let alone see it. The so-called "oasis".

So, before traveling, make a plan.

Yuan Yuan believed that Hong Zhong encountered a "distortion" of a certain black hole, and that black hole was probably hidden in the maze.

The greatest possible.

It was the "black hole" that cut off Hong Zhong's team's retreat, causing the captain to order forward, fight to the death, and then see the oasis... There was something unexplainable about this hypothesis.

That's...how did Hong Zhong come back?

"Li Chen, from this moment on, I need you to keep the 【Episode of Origin】 running at all times."

Yuan Yuan looked at the young man beside him.

Li Chen nodded solemnly, opened his silver eyes, and began to patrol all directions.

"Gu Shen..."

Yuan Yuan didn't finish his words.

Gu Shen gently raised two fingers.

The small fire fragments hidden in the wind and snow in the distance all lit up at this moment, like a resurgence of death.

The sensor responsible for detecting the extraordinary source material, as well as the two reliable spiritual extraordinary people in the team, ensured the safety of the subsequent "maze mission" to open up wasteland.

The entire team entered the long gorge tunnel little by little.

"Formation change - formation three!"

The twelve teams slowly formed a line.

A few hours later.

Everyone's traveling speed slowed down.

Gu Shen noticed.

Li Chen's complexion, while tense, was already a little pale.

The high-intensity operation of 【Eye of the Source】 put a huge load on his mental strength... He began to consume nutrient solution and mental supplements quickly, and the rest of the team's condition was not much better.

The extraordinary people in Beizhou are indeed in good physical condition. These people were born to grow up in a freezing environment. They have strong folk customs and are brave and good at fighting. However, their "spiritual" cultivation is a little rough.

There is no such great breathing technique as "Spring Breathing" in Beizhou.

These elite soldiers, even Li Chen, who is one of the top spiritual geniuses in the Survey Corps, are somewhat inferior in the practice of breathing techniques.

Compared with Dongzhou, these people have stronger actual combat abilities, but their spiritual cultivation is much weaker.

Gu Shen looked at the far side of Feixue and whispered in the command channel: "Everyone can try to move twenty meters to the right. If you guessed it right, the power of this regular point... will continue to suppress the spirit of the extraordinary. , after moving to the right, the situation will get better."

The team members who were trudging forward were startled when they heard this.

This part of their journey was extremely difficult, and they felt more and more nervous as they walked.

And Gu Shen was indeed the only one who could be considered "relaxed".

"To the right."

Yuan Yuan tried it himself and then issued the order immediately.

The entire team maintains formation and quickly adjusts its position.

"call......"

The next moment, bursts of soothing sounds of exhalation sounded in the team's public channel...

Sure enough, after the adjustment, everyone's mental pressure was greatly reduced!

If this news reaches the Survey Corps, most people will probably sneer... They will not believe that a stubborn person like Yuan Yuan would believe the regular advice put forward by a young man from Dongzhou.

In other words, they are even less willing to believe that there is such a magical spiritual transcendent who can detect the laws of the "terrible black hole" in a short period of time after first contact.

"At the next intersection, you have to turn left, right? You can change the formation to formation No. 4...and then everyone leans against the left end of the wall and moves forward." Gu Shen looked at Yuan Yuan, "Of course, this is just my suggestion."

Yuan Yuan narrowed his eyes.

He did not ask how Gu Shen gave this suggestion... but after the entire team turned left at the fork in the road, as the captain, he personally came to the position designated by Gu Shen to experience it.

really!

The invisible oppression is greatly reduced!

"Formation change, formation No. 4!" Yuan Yuan gave the order decisively.

Next, Gu Shen relied on his own senses to give suggestions again... The consumption of the entire team was greatly reduced, and everyone felt incredible.

Later, Gu Shen's "suggestion" was turned into an order by Yuan Yuan without hesitation.

No one thought that this maze mission would become so efficient!

soon.

We arrived at the "record point" of the last mission.

Because of the "advice" given by Gu Shen, the mental state of the entire team was maintained quite well.

"Thanks......"

Li Chen couldn't remember exactly how many times he said these two words.

This guy is truly an amazing person.

This trek.

Unknowingly... everyone's "view" of Gu Shen has changed.

Perhaps it was because those firefly-like fire flakes illuminated the darkness during many long nights, giving this exploration team their own little light to look for.

Gu Shen just smiled and said nothing.

The mental oppression brought by the huge black hole behind him has disappeared.

Apparently, the team had reached a fairly safe position.

He narrowed his eyes: "Ahead...is the end point reached by the elite team led by Hong Zhong?"

The wind and snow became less intense.

Yuan Yuan's toes touched something. He frowned and gently exerted force. A body buried in heavy snow was exposed on the snow.

"Corpse?"

As the snowflakes on the surface of the corpse were shaken away by Yuan Yuan's knife... the entire team fell into silence.

These people looked at the body in silence.

"Old Yao..."

Yuan Yuan put away his sword and squatted down, his eyes a little moist.

He took a deep breath and stared at the withered cheeks of his old comrades. The owner of this corpse was one of the veterans of the Second Team of the Survey Corps.

A cold sadness surged through the entire group of explorers.

One of the goals of the maze mission is to find the remains of former comrades.

soon.

The surrounding snow layer was peeled away.

"Fortunately", there were five corpses in total... none less.

These are all teammates of the Hongzhong Elite Team!

These corpses were placed together. If the mission goes well and there is sufficient energy and fuel, the explorer team will return to the fortress with the corpses of these comrades.

"That's not quite right..."

Gu Shen looked at these freshly unearthed "corpses" and fell into thinking.

"Their Source Armor doesn't seem to have any signs of damage... This means that they didn't experience any battle during their lifetime, but there was no battle. Why did they die here?"

As soon as these words came out, the extraordinary people in the team began to look at the corpse again.

"No... there are scars on Lao Yao's source armor."

Yuan Yuan, who was squatting in front of the corpse, his eyes lit up, and he said in surprise: "It was a stab wound... Moreover, Lao Yao's backup energy was taken away?"

Gu Shen came to Lao Yao's body.

He looked at the corpse... The location of the knife wound was not on the chest, but on the back. A clean knife penetrated the back and came out of the chest. Because the knife was drawn cleanly, only a small wound was left. A crack!

Under the frost, this crack was squeezed shut, making it difficult to detect without careful inspection.

Li Chen's voice was trembling: "Who... pulled out the knife?"

This is a very cruel question.

But...it's also a very real question.

The team members, immersed in sorrow, stared at the knife mark and fell into deathly silence one by one.

Only Gu Shen answered Li Chen's question.

He spoke softly and asked, "Who left here alive?"
