Gatekeeper of all realms.

Chapter 77: Reunion (First Order Request!)
"Can you eat giant meat?" Shen Ye asked.

"This is to rebuild the body and to survive." The big skeleton said solemnly.

"Ok."

Shen Ye sighed and had no choice but to draw out the Night Sword and step forward to cut the giant's flesh.

——I always feel that the big skeleton seems to be a little different.

"You think it's dangerous here?"

Shen Ye asked while cutting the meat.

"Nonsense, you have been stared at by the skinner and his master. Do you think I don't understand the situation?" said the big skeleton.

"But I can never find so many undead souls to help you regain your strength." Shen Ye said.

"I haven't lost my strength, I just lack the body."

"Is there any difference?" Shen Ye shrugged.

"It's so different." The big skeleton said.

"Well, if you can participate in the war, of course I welcome you." Shen Ye said.

"Before, I was too obsessed with identity, but now I have figured out that if my life is gone, what's the use of having identity?" the big skeleton said with emotion.

"So what do you decide to do?" Shen Ye asked.

"Don't call me if it's okay. I have to make some preparations in advance. I hope I won't need them." The big skeleton said.

Mysterious...

Shen Ye muttered, put the giant meat into the ring, and then returned to Xiao Mengyu.

Xiao Mengyu knew that his compatibility was towards the undead, so he didn't ask much at this time and just whispered:
"Be careful, the strange movements in the fog seem to be becoming more and more frequent."

"Let's hide in the cave." Shen Ye said.

Just as the two were about to enter the gap in the mountain again, they suddenly saw a surge of fog coming in, covering the entire mountain.

The mountain is invisible!
There was a strange sound coming from the gap in the mountain.

Some monster is already guarding there.

They are waiting for the two of them.

It's a bit scary...

Shen Ye looked back at Mu Mu and said, "Brother, can you really take the exam for me?"

"Yes!" A word appeared on the wood.

"What if you were killed?" Shen Ye asked again.

"I will grow somewhere else, but your grades will be ruined." Small words appeared on the wood.

Shen Ye shook his head.

Forget it, just take the exam yourself.

"Look at the cards." Xiao Mengyu said from the side.

Shen Ye took out the playing cards and saw a line of small words appearing on them:
"The tide of mourning is raging."

"All candidates who have not yet reached the island have been eliminated, a total of 163 people."

"Now proceed to the combat assessment."

"Description: Despite the help of the god statues, you still need to prove your strength. Please fight on in the coming waves of mourning until you find a truly reliable shelter."

next moment.

The mist surged in and swallowed the two of them.

"Be careful, I feel like there are monsters all around."

Xiao Mengyu shouted.

Shen Ye was back to back with her, and just as he was about to speak, a huge force suddenly struck him.

His vision went dark and he couldn't see anything. He could only summon up all his strength, add attribute points to his strength, and push out a palm with both hands.

boom!
With the blessing of Dharma Eye, the Thunder Palm, which had tripled its power, hit something and made a thunderous sound.

Shen Ye was also knocked away by this force.

not good!

He glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw that the wood had been hit by something else and had rolled to nowhere.

Shen Ye rolled in the air and turned into flowing water-like shadows, landing on a pine tree.

"Xiao Mengyu?"

he shouted.

thump.

With a soft sound, the wood rolled out of the fog, rolled up the branches, and stopped next to Shen Ye.

——It ran back unswervingly to guard Shen Ye.

Shen Ye patted the wood to express his gratitude and looked into the mist again.

There were only bursts of shrill sword sounds in the mist, sometimes in the east, sometimes in the west, and sometimes rushing into the sky again.

Xiao Mengyu is fighting something!
"Hey! This way!"

Shen Ye shouted loudly.

The sound of the sword did not follow, but gradually faded away.

Not right.

Why didn't she come to him?

Two people are better than fighting alone.

Shen Ye hugged the wood, jumped up, and chased after him following the sound of the sword.

He galloped in the fog for a while, and suddenly he saw a pine tree blocking the way ahead.

Huh?
Shen Ye jumped up to the treetop and looked down.

There was still a muddy footprint at the place where I had just stepped.

——This is the tree that I just left!

and so--

Does fog make people lose their sense of direction?

This is troublesome.

How can I reunite with Xiao Mengyu?
There was a slight jolt in the pocket.

He quickly took out the playing card and took a look, only to see a line of small words appearing on it:
"Your team has been disbanded."

"Xiao Mengyu has sent you a team request."

In the blink of an eye, Shen Ye reacted.

Xiao Mengyu gained the "team leader" ability in the newcomer deck.

Once the team is successfully formed, she can have the team members teleport to her!

At this moment, without a team, her strength was 70% sealed.

——She is risking herself in danger and must find herself first!

Shen Ye immediately said: "Agree!"

Swah——

He disappeared from the spot and appeared next to Xiao Mengyu, shouting angrily: "Block!"

The wood was thrown directly by him.

Click - bang!

Almost instantly, the wood was bitten by a black shadow and then flew away.

"Fortunately, you're here. My power was sealed just now, so I can't block this blow."

Xiao Mengyu said calmly.

Shen Ye looked across and saw a giant python with a single horn on its head.

At this moment, the giant python failed in its attack and shrank back, coiling up on the ground, with its head held high, spitting out its tongue and staring at the two of them. "Did you notice that their attacks are all repelling, they must disperse us."

Shen Ye said.

The wood rolled back far away and stopped at his feet.

"When you say that, it seems like this is really the case." Xiao Mengyu said.

After successfully forming a team, her strength doubled again, and she exuded a cold sword spirit.

"The fog will make us lose our way, so they want to break them one by one." Shen Ye added.

"I did bring a lifeline, which can tie you and me together, but this will hinder our movement." Xiao Mengyu said.

"...I have a trick." Shen Ye said.

"What?" Xiao Mengyu asked.

Shen Ye walked behind Xiao Mengyu, trembled slightly, and disappeared immediately.

"Where are you?" Xiao Mengyu was surprised.

On the ground, a voice sounded from her shadow:
"I'm in your shadow."

"...This is the realm of magic. Have you mastered a magic related to shadows?" Xiao Mengyu asked in surprise.

Shen Ye said: "Yes, this way it won't be able to see me, and -"

The wood rolled and landed beside Xiao Mengyu.

In this way, the greatsword is used to assist in attack, the wood is used for defense, and Shen Ye hides in the shadows to provide flexible support.

Even if Xiao Mengyu was knocked away——

There was no way her shadow could disappear because of the fog, or be cut off from her and trapped alone.

This breaks the isolating effect of the fog!

Xiao Mengyu was cheered up. He left the one-horned black python aside and rushed into the woods in a flash.

"Our mission is to find shelter, not to fight monsters."

She explained as she ran.

Mu Mu sat on the sword, and her shadow spoke behind her:
"Yes, but it caught up with me."

"Then kill it."

Xiao Mengyu suddenly turned around and swung his sword at the one-horned black python with all his strength.

The one-horned black python opened its mouth and showed its fangs to resist, but was slapped in the face by the hand that stretched out from the shadow.

So I didn't block it.

Swah——

The sword energy penetrated its body, and the big sword followed up and cut it again.

The one-horned black python was cut into two pieces. It twisted its body wildly on the ground and stopped moving after a while.

In the mist.

The various sounds gradually faded away.

The two of them killed a giant centipede, a giant, and a one-horned black python in succession, and seemed to have frightened all the monsters in the area.

They all moved away from the two of them.

Xiao Mengyu took a few breaths and said, "Where do you think the shelter will be?"

"We drove over several mountains while driving the motorcycle, but we didn't see anything that could be called a shelter." Shen Ye said.

“Then don’t climb the mountain.”

Xiao Mengyu nodded and continued to move forward in the fog.
It took about ten minutes to walk.

She suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Shen Ye asked.

"listen--"

Xiao Mengyu listened attentively and said softly, "There are dogs barking."

"I didn't hear it." Shen Ye said in surprise.

"Listen again!" Xiao Mengyu said.

"Ah, I heard it. There really is a dog. Could it be that the dog is also a monster?" Shen Ye said.

"Not sure...it seems to be approaching us."

Xiao Mengyu drew out his sword and took a defensive stance.

There was a gasp and a whimper ahead.

Getting closer.

"Who!" Xiao Mengyu shouted.

The fog surged.

I saw a man and a dog jumping out of the fog, falling to the ground, rolling a few times, and then standing up.

"what?"

Shen Ye whispered, "I know that boy. His name is Zhang Xiaoyi. He came to Yunshan Port with me."

"Where is the dog?" Xiao Mengyu asked.

"I don't recognize the dog, but it doesn't seem to be a dog." Shen Ye said.

Shen Ye thought about it, jumped out from the shadows, held Zhang Xiaoyi and asked:
"Ayi, what's wrong with you?"

"Huh? Shen Ye! Great, we finally found you - we are finally out of danger." Zhang Xiaoyi gasped.

"Is there a monster chasing you?" Shen Ye asked.

Xiao Mengyu took a step forward, holding a long sword, and blocked the two men and the dog behind him.

"He's not a monster, but a powerful young man from aristocratic family. He wants to kill me and Guo Yunye." Zhang Xiaoyi said.

Shen Ye laughed and said, "We can't attack each other here."

Zhang Xiaoyi grabbed the dog next to him and said:
"look!"

Shen Ye looked carefully and saw that the dog had wounds all over its body.

"Did a noble family member beat him?"

"Correct."

"But it's just a dog. Is it your pet? Maybe the rules allow attacking pets."

"This is not my pet!"

"what?"

"This is the wolf that Guo Yunye transformed into! It's not a dog!"

"what!"

Not only Shen Ye was surprised, but even Xiao Mengyu turned his head and took a look at the dog.

No, it should be a wolf.

"Brother Yunye, I didn't expect you to be able to transform into a wolf," Shen Ye said, bowing. "Change back first, and we'll discuss it."

Unexpectedly, the wolf just glanced at him indifferently, turned its head proudly, and continued to squat there motionless.

——It ignored him completely!

Shen Ye looked at Zhang Xiaoyi.

"Don't call him wolf, he thinks he is a dog." Zhang Xiaoyi whispered.

"Ah?" Shen Ye also whispered.

"There will be some problems with his brain after he transforms. Not only will he forget that he is a human, he will also not admit that he is a wolf. He will only think that he is a dog." Zhang Xiaoyi whispered.

Shen Ye was stunned.

A man turns into a wolf and then thinks he is a dog.

So spectacular.
