Chapter 122: Lin Xiao's Journey to Survive in a Fantasy World
At dusk in the Fantasy World, the setting sun was blood-red, rendering the entire sky like a burning sea of fire. The strong red seemed to be a warning of fate, foreshadowing the coming storm. Lin Xiao stood alone on the edge of the cliff, the sea breeze whistling and sweeping over, violently pulling at her clothes and long hair.
Her eyes were filled with deep despair and unwillingness, as if they could penetrate the endless darkness and reach the unknown distance. "Mo Yu, where are you?" She murmured to herself, her voice trembling with endless longing and fear. Every word seemed to be squeezed out from her broken heart, full of painful torment.
Lin Xiao was now in tattered clothes. Her once gorgeous clothes were now torn by branches and rocks, and stained with blood and dust. Her face was covered with scars, including long and thin bloody scars from being scratched by branches, and bruises and wounds from fighting with the enemy. Each scar was like a cruel story, telling the hardships she had experienced.
Her body was swaying, as if she would be blown down by the strong wind in the next second. But her eyes remained firm, and her clenched teeth showed the unyielding will deep in her heart. "What the hell is this place! How did I get here?" She roared angrily, her voice seemed so small and helpless in the strong wind.
Suddenly, a low roar like thunder came from a distance. Lin Xiao's heart suddenly tightened, her pupils shrank instantly, and all the muscles in her body tensed up. "What kind of monster is this?" She muttered to herself in fear, her voice full of trembling.
I saw a huge monster slowly walking out of the woods. The monster was as big as a mountain, and every step made the earth tremble. Its skin was as rough as rock, and it shone with a strange luster. Its huge eyes were like burning fireballs, spewing flames of anger and greed.
Lin Xiao took a deep breath and subconsciously took a few steps back. "Oh my God, this is going to drive me to death!" She shouted desperately. But at the same time as she was desperate, a strong desire to survive surged in her heart.
She clenched the weapon in her hand, it was an old sword, but in her hand it seemed like the last straw. "Come on, beast! Even if I die, I will fight you to the death!" She roared, her voice full of courage to face death.
At this moment, a mysterious light suddenly flashed across the sky. The light was like a meteor, instantly illuminating the entire dark world. Then, a mysterious figure appeared in front of Lin Xiao.
"Don't be afraid, little girl." The mysterious man's voice was low and magnetic, as if carrying an irresistible magic.
Lin Xiao looked at him suspiciously, her eyes full of vigilance. "Who are you? Why are you here?" she asked, with a hint of suspicion in her voice.
The mysterious man smiled slightly, and that smile seemed particularly mysterious in this tense atmosphere. "I'm here to help you. But you have to trust me."
However, Lin Xiao did not believe him easily. In this world full of dangers and conspiracies, she has learned to be cautious. "Humph, why should I believe you? You might be a trap!" She snorted coldly and held the sword in her hand tighter.
The mysterious man seemed to see through her thoughts and sighed softly. "Believe it or not, but if you don't want to die here, come with me." His eyes were firm and sincere.
Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment, a fierce struggle going on in her heart. In the end, the desire to survive overcame her doubts. "Okay, I'll go with you, but if you dare to lie to me, I will never let you go!" She said through gritted teeth.
The mysterious man nodded and turned to walk deeper into the woods. Lin Xiao followed closely behind him, never putting down the sword in his hand.
As they traveled through the forest, the surroundings became increasingly eerie. The tall trees blocked out the sun, as if forming a huge cage. The ground was covered with thick fallen leaves, and every step made a dull sound.
"Where are you taking me?" Lin Xiao couldn't help but ask again, with a hint of anxiety in his voice.
The mysterious man did not answer, but quickened his pace. Lin Xiao felt more and more uneasy, but she had no way out.
Suddenly, an old castle appeared in front of us. The gate of the castle was closed, and there was a strange atmosphere around it. The walls of the castle were covered with green vines, as if they were traces left by time.
The mysterious man stopped and turned to look at Lin Xiao. "We're here." There was a hint of mystery in his voice.
Lin Xiao looked at the castle, her heart full of doubts and fears. "What is this place? What's inside?" she asked nervously.
Just as they were about to enter the castle, they heard the roar of a monster behind them. The sound was deafening, as if the whole world was shaking.
"Oh no, it's chasing us!" Lin Xiao exclaimed, his face turning pale instantly.
The mysterious man's expression also became serious. "Quick, go into the castle first!" he shouted.
Lin Xiao did not hesitate at all and followed the mysterious man to the castle gate. Just as they were about to enter the castle, the monster's huge claws swung towards them.
The mysterious man suddenly pushed Lin Xiao in, and then turned to face the monster. "You go in first, I'll stop it!" he shouted.
Lin Xiao's heart was filled with worry, but at this moment she had no choice but to rush into the castle.
The interior of the castle was dark and damp, and filled with a foul smell. Lin Xiao walked carefully, full of vigilance.
"What on earth is this place? Can that mysterious man stop the monster?" Her heart was filled with countless questions and worries.
Just then, she heard footsteps. The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Lin Xiao's heartbeat was getting faster and faster.
"Who is it?" she shouted, her voice full of fear.
A shadow slowly walked out of the darkness. Can Lin Xiao find life in this mysterious castle? What will be the fate of the mysterious man? Everything is still unknown...
