I'm not a drama god

As the words fell, the six shadow centipedes trembled even more violently.

The leading centipede didn't hesitate and rushed into the depths of the gray world with Chen Ling on its back. The other small centipedes wanted to run away, but they bumped into each other in panic. Following the hissing of the big centipede in the distance, they followed obediently behind and disappeared at the end of the horizon.

In the mother tree, the many young boys and girls who were watching opened their mouths in shock, until Chen Ling disappeared with all the disasters, they finally came to their senses.

They had heard about Chen Ling's deeds, but until now, they had never truly witnessed Chen Ling's power...

Putting aside other things, that giant centipede alone can sweep away almost all of them. After all, most of them are young, have not yet merged to the level of [Slaying Evil], and do not have the attack power. If they are stranded outside the mother tree, that disaster can take their lives.

But Chen Ling just stomped his feet and scared the whole family out, and made them obey his orders with just two sentences. This kind of oppression could not be achieved by any powerful fusionist. It was the terrifying dominance that only the King of Disaster possessed!

At this moment, Chen Ling's legendary past that was circulated among the fusion school was truly materialized in the eyes of everyone.

"Where is Brother Chen Ling going?"

"Are you going to save Linglong and Xiaobai?! So cool!!"

"If it was Brother Chen Ling, he would definitely be able to rescue them..."

The worries and fears that lingered in the hearts of all the boys and girls of the Fusion Sect dissipated as Chen Ling set out. Hope rekindled in their eyes and they were extremely excited. Even when Zhao Yi and Lao Lang set out to look for people, they did not have such a strong reaction.

In addition to the disaster that Chen Ling just brought upon himself, what brought all this about was the story behind him, the admiration and trust that the boys and girls had for him... This is the power brought by "legend".

The atmosphere of joy and excitement spread within the mother tree.

Behind the office window, Teacher Ye quietly watched Chen Ling's departing back, muttering to himself:

"The scarlet ruler who mocks the abyss, the formless king who plays with fate..."

Teacher Ye smiled slightly and put the syringe in his hand back into the box.

Click——

The black box was locked again.

……

"sixteen……"

"Seventeen..."

"eighteen……"

On the other side of the tree canopy, a petite figure was cautiously groping forward along the branches of the mother tree, relying on the dim light of the kerosene lamp to dispel the darkness. At the same time, she bent down and kept picking off the withering leaves and putting them into the small basket around her waist.

A roar came from a distance, followed by a cry of surprise from the crowd. Xiao Tao wiped the sweat from her forehead and couldn't help asking:

"Sister Miaomiao, what happened over there?"

Not far from her, Miaomiao shouted in surprise:

"Xiao Tao, you don't have to pick them! Brother Chen Ling has gathered a group of disasters and is going to find Linglong and Xiaobai himself!"

"what?!"

Xiao Tao was stunned for a moment, then she climbed down little by little, holding onto the tangled branches.

"Really? Where?"

"Really, they've already gone...in that direction."

Xiao Tao looked in the direction of Miaomiao's finger, but could only see the deep night and the strange and creepy outline of the disaster territory in the gray world.

She held the small basket in her arms, and the figure in the bright red costume appeared in her mind, muttering to herself:

"If it's Brother Chen Ling...it should be no problem."

"I think so too!" Miaomiao pulled her hand, "Okay, you picked a lot of dead leaves today, let's go back quickly."

"……Um."

Xiao Tao nodded and followed Miaomiao under the tree canopy. At this moment, her peripheral vision seemed to catch something and a look of doubt flashed in her eyes.

"what happened?"

"Sister Miaomiao...what do you think that is?"

Miaomiao and Xiaotao squatted down and looked at the trunk of the mother tree. They saw a bunch of black lines like chaotic graffiti drawn on the surface of the trunk, which was messy and disorderly and no one could make sense of it.

"It must be someone's prank, right?" Miaomiao stretched out her hand and rubbed the line, but failed to erase it at all.

"He actually scribbled on the mother tree. Go back and tell Teacher Ye that he must be found and severely punished!"

Miaomiao looked away as she spoke, but the next moment, she found that the lines seemed to be branded on her retina and could not be erased no matter where she looked.

Chaotic lines spun wildly before her eyes, like an abstract storm, swallowing up everything in front of her bit by bit...

"Xiao Tao...something seems wrong...I..."

Miaomiao staggered a few steps dizzy and tried to hold Xiaotao's hand, but found that Xiaotao was also standing there in a daze like her. A group of dark and disordered lines spread in her pupils and eventually occupied her entire eyeballs.

The breeze blew through the crown of the mother tree, and the two girls stood there blankly.

After a while, they suddenly took stiff steps, as if they had lost their souls, and walked towards the depths of the Gray Realm together...

……

Jian Changsheng sat on a boulder, supporting his head with one hand, looking at a group of lead-gray clouds that looked like mushrooms floating overhead, as if in a daze.

Faintly, the shouts of the other two people came into my ears:

"Five fives!"

"Five fives!"

"Six sixes? Open!"

The Jack of Diamonds yelled and opened the sieve in front of Sun Bumian. After counting the points, he laughed and said, "You lose! Drink!"

Sun Bumian scratched his hair in annoyance and turned to look at Jiang Xiaohua eagerly.

Jiang Xiaohua sat cross-legged on the ground with a pile of empty wine bottles beside her. After hearing Diamond J's shout, she raised her head and drank the whole bottle of wine without saying a word.

Jiang Xiaohua's cheeks were already slightly flushed. He glanced at Sun Bumian and said sullenly:

"You're such a slut... Cube."

“Damn it, this shouldn’t be possible…” Sun Bumian’s face turned red, and he stared at the dice in front of the Jack of Diamonds, incredulous. “Back then, I was also a veteran in casinos at home and abroad, so why can’t I win…”

Diamond Jack ignored Sun Bumian's muttering. After Jiang Xiaohua finished drinking, he picked up his own bottle and clinked it with Jiang Xiaohua's. He spoke happily:

"Come on, I'm hungry, I'll have a drink with you!"

After saying that, he also raised his head and drank it all.

"Come again!"

The sounds of two dice shaking overlapped, which made Jian Changsheng feel annoyed. He couldn't help but stand up and walk to the Jack of Diamonds and asked directly:

"No, buddy, if we keep going back and forth like this, how long will it take us to reach the Fusion Faction?"

Diamond J looked up at him and burped.

“Isn’t that incomprehensible? Without clear directions, it’s best not to travel in the Gray Realm at night. Otherwise, it’s easy to get lost and end up in the Disaster Territory.

There are train tracks connecting the human realms, so there is no need to worry about getting lost, but we are now heading deep into the Gray Realm... If you want to reach the Fusion Faction safely, you have to listen to me."
