Chapter 607
Didn't we just meet a few days ago, and agreed to meet at the bottom of The Chasm, why are you showing such a disgusted expression now?
Dainsleif was full of doubts, but this was also a matter of course; he didn't know at all.
Lumine and Paimon were looking forward to the person appearing here being Hearing Luo Li; that guy had previously said that he might be interested in The Chasm.
Although he later denied that he would probably not go, the possibility was not zero.
Precisely because of this, if it were Hearing Luo Li who appeared here at this moment, the two of them would be overjoyed.
Unfortunately, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment in reality.
Dainsleif said calmly: "Is there a problem with me?"
"No, it's just that it's a different way of appearing," Paimon said insincerely.
Lumine didn't have time to complain and asked directly: "Since you have come to this place, you can tell us the things that were not explained clearly before, right."
"That's right, that's right, we have a lot of things we want to ask you!"
Paimon put her hands on her hips and echoed. 21
Dai Yin pondered for a moment and said: "The previous meeting and parting were a bit hasty; I understand your feelings; fate does owe you an answer."
Thus, he informed them of the news he had about chasing the Abyss Order during this time.
For example, he was currently chasing the whereabouts of an Abyss Herald, had figured out part of the structure of the Abyss's teleportation network, and needed more time to investigate.
The narration didn't take long; Dai Yin told the two that The Chasm was hiding a certain plan of the Abyss Order, and the Hilichurls were part of this plan.
Lumine was not very interested in these; she was most concerned about one point.
"What about your relationship with my brother?"
Glancing at her, Dai Yin didn't hide it this time, but raised his head slightly and fell into memories.
"Your brother Aether and I were once traveling companions; it was a journey of searching for fate while carrying pain, but we failed to reach the end together... During that journey, we experienced too many things, which is also one of the reasons why he and I took different paths..."
During the narration, Lumine's face was solemn, and her mood was very complicated.
"Then do you know the reason why Hilichurls gather in large numbers?"
"You want to know the answer?"
Dai Yin hugged his chest with both hands, and under the two people nodding constantly, his posture was very cold and said: "I happen to know a little."
"Related to the upside-down city over there?" Lumine guessed.
"It is understandable that you cannot detect the strangeness; the weirdness of this place actually lies in the fact that the environment here is weakening the effect of the curse."
Dai Yin, as a citizen of Khaenri'ah, also suffered from the immortality curse, so he had some influence.
Although the immortality curse sounds very good, and ordinary people can also have the ability to live forever, this "gift" also has its own price.
For hundreds of years, the pain brought by the curse has been entangled with him every day, but coming to this place, his body felt a moment of respite.
For example, at this very moment, his body instinctively expressed its wishes to its master, which was to stay.
This explanation made the tool duo silent.
"Moreover, the so-called immortality curse is not permanently immortal; under the effect of erosion, the soul and body will still be worn out, even if it is not in the form of death."
"When those Hilichurls realize that the end of their self is coming, they seem to instinctively look for a quiet and dark corner to say goodbye to the pain of hundreds of years, and this place, which can weaken the effect of the curse, must be the best coffin for them."
When saying this, Dai Yin's tone was heavy and carried an unexpected ease.
"The reason for the gathering of Hilichurls... is actually like this."
Lumine and Paimon were a little unbelievable; they thought there was some deeper secret, but it turned out to be just this?
Half a while passed, and the atmosphere was still silent.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not quite right, Paimon joked: "By the way, Dai Yin, what happened to the eye of the first Ruin Guard?"
Dai Yin replied expressionlessly: "I have settled it; before figuring out the true face of the so-called Loom of Fate plan, there is no need to worry about it falling into the hands of the Abyss."
"I see, that's good."
Paimon replied dryly and racked her brains to think of the next question.
However, Dai Yin interrupted them: "Before continuing to ask me questions, I suggest exploring the secrets of the depths first; the Abyss might be peeking at us in the dark right now."
Mentioned by him, Paimon was terrified, always feeling that there were many pairs of eyes in the dark staring at them with ill intentions, scaring her to fly to Lumine's side and hold the other party tightly.
"Alright, then let's set off."
Lumine agreed immediately, so the three of them planned to set off toward the upside-down city.
However, just as the three were approaching the city, they found many Hilichurl gathering places, but they were all empty, and they couldn't see a single Hilichurl.
