Proving the Dao of Hunyuan from the Age of Witches

Chapter 045 The Strange Things in the Town

After driving for more than two hours on the completely deserted national highway, no witch came to surround her.

It seemed that her previous guesses were completely wrong, but Luo Xi didn't care.

Because she and her team had arrived in a town.

The town was shrouded in mist, carrying with it a chill.

They remained lukewarm in their perception of anything unusual.

According to the records, both abnormal entities and abnormal phantoms have an abnormal core.

Since it's an abnormal core, the witch's senses would definitely be able to detect something different.

All the members of the action team wore masks, only their eyes were visible, so Luo Xi could not see their faces.

Of course, Luo Xi wasn't curious about their appearance.

The captain gave a hand signal and made arrangements, and one of the squad members prepared to enter the town to scout.

This was how they operated whenever they arrived at a new place, and Luo Xi didn't mind. She simply watched quietly as the reconnaissance team member entered the town.

1 minutes passed.

5 minutes passed.

10 minutes passed.

Time passed quickly, and Luo Xi was now standing in front of the special operations team.

"Due to unforeseen circumstances, the magic I left on the investigator has disappeared," Luo Xi explained to the team.

"It's like it just vanished." Luo Xi said, as if explaining, but also as if talking to herself.

"It's been 10 minutes, and they still haven't come back. They probably won't be coming back," Luo Xi made a decision. "You guys stay put, I'll go into the town and check."

When faced with unusual events and unusual circumstances, ordinary people really have absolutely no room for resistance.

Let alone ordinary people, even Luo Xi herself didn't know how the investigators disappeared.

The team's main role is to cooperate with the witch's operations. Since they cannot contact Wei Ying, she has complete freedom of action.

Upon entering the town, the chill intensified, and Luo Xi couldn't help but shiver.

The road was wet, but Luo Xi didn't care; the fog seemed to be getting thicker.

The path back had indeed disappeared again.

Suddenly, a figure flashed by in the distance!

It was moving very fast, and Luo Xi couldn't see it clearly, only sensing that it must be a small child.

How can there be a child?

As Luo Xi walked silently along the road, her doubts grew stronger.

Another figure flashed by, seemingly stopping not far away.

Every time Luo Xi tried to get close enough to catch a glimpse of the figure, it would quickly dodge away.

After several attempts, Luo Xi stood still.

The figure slowly approached, and Luo Xi heard the sound.

It was the voice of children, a little girl and a little boy, seemingly saying something...

Luo Xi heard it even more clearly.

Several voices, coming from all directions, were elusive but were definitely approaching her.

"One, two, three, freeze!"

"Don't speak or move!"

"No walking, no laughing!"

The figure flashed past Luo Xi again, and then the voice gradually faded into the distance.

Luo Xi was completely bewildered, not knowing what had happened.

The sound is like a game of "Statues".

The road back was no longer there, Luo Xi checked again.

It was in a small town, the small town in the south that was originally planned.

Luo Xi has arrived at the center of the town.

"Feed? Can you hear me?" Luo Xi, skilled and daring, shouted directly.

The sound seemed to be absorbed by the mist, and there was no response.

Thinking that she had to do something, Luo Xi continued forward.

Then, we arrived at a huge building.

It looks like a church.

Does this world—no, this town—have a church?

With a question in mind, Luo Xi knocked on the door.

The door was cold, and the rusty water clung to Luo Xi's hands, feeling somewhat strange. Luo Xi activated her magic, and the self-cleaning effect remained, causing the rusty water to disappear.

No one answered the door.

Luo Xi smiled as well, her magic continued to surge forth, and her cutting ability activated, slicing open the gate.

The gate shattered into pieces and fell to the ground, making a sickeningly loud noise.

It was a spacious hall with a high ceiling.

There were no benches, no pulpit, nothing superfluous, making it seem exceptionally spacious.

A three-meter-tall statue stood alone in front of her, and Luo Xi couldn't recognize who the statue was.

The area outside the gate was completely shrouded in mist, and the path had disappeared. It seemed that there was no way to leave the hall, and the only option was to move forward.

"Hehehe..."

Laughter seemed to be coming from there, but Luo Xi couldn't tell which direction it was coming from.

It's a very strange feeling.

Luo Xi stopped in her tracks.

"Hehehe..."

Laughter came again, from far away to near, and from near to far.

Looking in the direction of the sound, there was still nothing there.

Looking down, Luo Xi saw a petite figure standing beside her. Startled, Luo Xi quickly stopped moving.

"Hi, hello." Seeing that it seemed to be a little girl, Luo Xi tried to lower her voice and be as friendly as possible.

The petite figure seemed startled and drifted away again.

Yes, it floated away.

Although the figure was running away, Luo Xi clearly saw that the figure's footsteps did not touch the ground and made no sound.

With no progress made, Luo Xi continued forward.

A short while later, Luo Xi arrived at a wooden door.

The wooden door was covered in mold, but Luo Xi smelled it and found no odor.

The wooden door was locked, and Luo Xi was very curious as to why there would be such a wooden door in what looked like a church.

Thinking this, Luo Xi used her magic again, and the lock on the wooden door broke directly.

Luo Xi was now hesitant to cut open the wooden door directly, worried that she might see something terrifying behind it.

Pushing open the wooden door, the terrifying scene I had imagined did not occur.

But behind the wooden door was only darkness, as dark as ink.

After hesitating for a moment, Luo Xi reached out and put her hand into the wooden door.

I couldn't touch anything; the darkness, as thick as ink, was like air.

Feeling that entering the wooden door rashly was a bit risky, Luo Xi hesitated for a moment, then used her magic to cut a palm-sized piece of wood from the door and threw it inside.

It was the sound of wood hitting the ground; Luo Xi heard it, but couldn't see anything in the darkness.

There shouldn't be anything in the darkness.

Luo Xi hesitated for a moment.

If she backs down, she might spend the rest of her life wondering what's inside the wooden door.

After much deliberation, Luo Xi took a step forward and entered the completely dark room.

It felt like stepping on something extremely soft, like being submerged in water, but without feeling suffocated.

Luo Xi suddenly opened her eyes.

It was a room with tiny windows, a gray room, the whole room seemed devoid of color, which contrasted sharply with her white dress, making her appear out of place.

While Luo Xi was in a daze, she suddenly felt herself being pushed.

It was that petite figure again.

I reached out to grab that petite figure, but it seemed like I was grasping at thin air, and the petite figure drifted away again.

Luo Xi chased after the petite figure, only to crash headfirst into the wall.

The door we came through is gone.
