[Hunter] Lydia's Life Story I

Obviously, one second I was still buying barbecue in a lively town, and the next second the world was spinning, my eyes blurred, and I didn’t know where I was when I woke up again.Seeing the boulders and deserted surroundings, Lydia carried a bag of steaming grilled squid, expressing that she was a bit square.

The Phantom Brigade has just made a big deal, and everyone is in high spirits, and they are not in a hurry to disband, so they come to Rubik's Cube Island for vacation.Rubik's Cube Island is an isolated island close to the Republic of Batokia. Because it is isolated overseas and far away from the land, the original landform is well preserved. It is a world-renowned tourist attraction and is favored by many adventure-loving donkey friends.

The location was chosen by Kuroro, but he disappeared as soon as he landed on the island, leaving Lydia to hang out with the others.Lydia has long been used to Kuroro's letting go, so she treats herself as raising a husky, and turns around to have fun with Maggie and Pike.

The island they landed that afternoon hadn't explored the depths yet, and they only settled in the outer towns.Except for a few people who couldn't stop running out, the rest of the spiders huddled in the hotel room, chatting and drinking beer.After eleven o'clock in the evening, the few people who were bored playing cards felt a little hungry, and Lydia, who was losing her hair, volunteered to go out to buy a midnight snack.

This time is not too late for a tourist town, and the night market along the coast is still full of people.Lydia read the shopping list silently, and first walked to the door of a shop selling grilled squid.

It never occurred to her that she had just received the pocket from the boss, and before she had time to pay, the next second, the surrounding night market with noisy lights had turned into a dark wilderness.

It's just buying a late night snack, what are you doing?

Surrounded by rocks as high as half a person, the feet are rough, loess can be seen faintly under the gravel, and weeds are withered.It was late at night at this time, and I didn't feel it in the busy city. When the surroundings were silent, only a little moonlight illuminated it, the night wind blew across the chaotic stone hills, screaming like a pharynx, which made people feel terrified.

Lydia changed the bag of grilled squid to another hand, took out the phone and called Madge, but the call failed.Call the knight again, but it won't work.She turned her head to broadcast to Kuroro, but it still didn't work.Looking again, there is no signal at all at the moment.She didn't feel well, so she stood on a rock and looked around in the distance. It was pitch black and she couldn't see anything.

"What's this called? It's all Kuroro's fault!" she whispered to herself.

She jumped off the rock, sat down on a flat and sheltered place, and began to eat grilled squid.The freshly baked squid was only warm. She ate up the skewers for four people, touched her swollen belly, stood up and cleaned up the gravel on the ground, and asked for a few beds with her words. Thick quilts were spread on the floor, ready to deal with it all night.

The quilt she wanted came from the room she rented. The members of the brigade group would probably know the situation when they saw that her quilt had disappeared before she came back, and they would definitely come to her.In such a strange wilderness, and at night, walking around is the most stupid behavior.She sprinkled a thick ring of wild animal repelling powder around the temporary camp, and fell asleep with a few warm water bags and clothes.

When the sun rose the next day, Lydia opened her eyes and sat up in a wilderness. She saw that there was no end to the bare stones around her, and there was no ghost besides.She was a little disappointed and a little panicked.

Pulling herself together, she climbed to the top of the tallest stone around and looked into the distance, which really made her see something.Just in the direction where the sun rises, at the end of the line of sight, it seems that the ground sinks suddenly, forming a cliff.

Maybe there's something there.

Stepping on the high and low stones, she walked there with one deep foot and one shallow foot. The closer she got, the more she could hear the faint human voice.She was refreshed and quickened her pace. When she finally walked out of the rocky hills, the noise she heard was almost deafening, noisy and boiling.

She walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down, startled in horror.

She stood on a cliff more than ten meters high, and the magnificent cliff stretched to both sides, and the edge could not be seen at a glance.Below is a valley, scattered with huge boulders, and the terrain is like a scattered maze.

It still seems to be on Rubik's Cube Island, because the landform in front of me looks familiar.The strange thing is that now the valley below is crowded with people. At a glance, it is densely packed with colorful human heads, which makes people suffer from dense phobia!

Lydia was condescending and saw that the crowd below was clearly agitated. Combined with the noise that almost overturned the sky, it clearly conveyed the panic, fear and commotion of the crowd below, and the negative emotions were still spreading and fermenting.

What's happening here?Where did so many people come from? !

Lydia hesitated for a moment, the voices below were too chaotic, she couldn't hear anything.Standing here is useless, if she wants to know what happened, she has to go down and take a look.

The cliff is more than ten meters high, and the smooth stone wall is like cutting.She slid down the stone wall and fell steadily into the crowd without splashing the slightest splash.

"What the hell is going on?!"

"Who did it? Why am I here?! Find him out!"

"From last night to now, I haven't eaten anything! Husband, I'm hungry!"

"No mobile signal! We're stuck here!"

"Damn it, this basin is weird! We can't get out!"

"Whoa whoa whoa—Mom I'm scared! I'm going home—"

Lydia watched for a while, and the people around her were dressed in different clothes. They seemed to be tourists on the island, and there were also a small number of residents who appeared here inexplicably, some from last night, some just now.Gathered by unknown forces for no reason, these people are now emotionally unstable, and there has been no large-scale commotion and it is only temporary.

No, it has already happened.

The crowd in the distance was commotion, trampling and pushing like a tide, and once it started to surge, it was difficult to calm down.Lydia was pushed forward by the people beside her and staggered two steps forward. In a blink of an eye, she left the cliff behind her and was trapped in the crazy crowd.

"Get us out of here! I'm leaving!"

"We are finished! This must be the witch's curse! I don't want to die!"

"Everyone break out! Come with me!"

"Don't squeeze me—oh, I'm falling! Help—"

Lydia only felt that one was bigger than the other.She was alone and weak, and in order not to be pushed down, she followed the crowd and moved a few steps forward. It was impossible for her to return to the previous cliff.A shoulder behind her hit her hard, she gasped, and shouted with her words regardless: "Go away! Stay away from me!"

The people in the circle next to her backed away two or three steps with a "swish", and they didn't know why, but the people in the distance were still rushing towards her - the crowd had been controlled by fear, and they were completely directionless. The random wandering - the peace of this small circle maintained by Yan Ling will only be temporary.

There was nothing Lydia could do.She had an intuition that she couldn't stop here, she should go to other places to have a look, there was obviously something strange here.Standing on tiptoe in the crowd to look out, she could only see the raised boulders standing out.

She took out her mobile phone and looked at it, but there was still no signal.Clenching her hands into fists by her sides, she took a deep breath and strode forward abruptly. At the same time, she roughly pushed the people who crowded in front of her away with both hands, and shouted: "Get out of the way! Don't block the way! Let me pass!"

She also looked as crazy as everyone else around her.

Lydia had been making her way through the crowd all day.Estimated by the huge stones, she has already passed through four or five areas. The panicked crowd was sometimes desperate and sometimes crazy, bumping around like headless chickens, which was unbearably disturbing.Stampede incidents happened from time to time, and the crowd continued to scream and run while stepping on the rotten flesh and blood on the ground, which was a tragedy in the world.

Lydia tried to cross this area to see the opposite side, and at the same time, she also had the expectation of meeting her brigade companions.

The endless crowding and pushing, the constant appearance of crazy faces, and the cries of despair lingering in one's ears make one extremely irritated.After pushing others away several times, she was so angry that she cried out. While rushing forward with bravery, she wiped away her tears in a useless manner, and scolded Kuroro who had disappeared from the bottom of her heart: it was all his fault!It's all his fault!

"Sister, where are we going?" A clear and waxy voice asked at the top of his throat.

"How do I know!" Lydia yelled back angrily.When she turned around, she saw a handsome face full of grievances, and immediately frowned impatiently, but she still didn't say anything.

Lydia has been breaking through the crowd with the momentum of Moses dividing the sea all the way. Even though she is undoubtedly at the bottom of the brigade, these irrational ordinary people are no match for her at all.She pushes and kicks, and sometimes uses her words to clean up those who are in the way, and occasionally reaches out to give a hand to the unlucky ones who are pushed to the ground and trampled on.

She has a lawsuit all over her head, and she doesn't want to meddle in other people's business.It's just that once in a violent mood, she turned a blind eye to a woman who fell to the ground beside her, and after walking a long way, she couldn't help but think of the arm that was stretched towards her and was ignored, and her heart became more and more irritable—— In the future, if similar things happen again, she will stop and pull her up, anyway, it won't delay her any time.

This is how the young man who entangled her was rescued, and he was even worse, surrounded by several men, probably not as simple as being trampled to death—crazy and desperate emotions will not only exaggerate fear, but also breed more crimes .

I don't know who did the immoral thing, gathering these people in Rubik's Cube Valley for a day and a night, this place has become an out-and-out hell on earth - the most harmful to human beings, after all, are human beings themselves.I don't know how many people will be left on this island after this matter is resolved.

"Why are you following me all the time?!" Lydia couldn't help shouting irritably at the green hair that was brushed aside from time to time.

"Sister, I have nowhere to go!" The blue-haired and blue-eyed boy also shouted loudly—in the noisy crowd, they could only hear each other's voices by shouting like this.

I don't know how this guy did it. Even with the force of his throat, Lydia could still hear the timidity in his voice.She had no intention of pity, and lost her temper to herself: "I have nowhere to go! Don't follow me!"

"But I just want to follow you!" The boy said aggrievedly and stubbornly.

Lydia rudely pushed out a man who was squeezing in front of her, and strode forward, not bothering to pay attention to her follower.

This boy is a bit weird, Qing Lingling's temperament is not like ordinary people.

If he wants to follow, he can follow, Lydia thought, she is not stupid, and she has to guard against him.

"Sister, it's getting dark! What should we do?!" the boy shouted again.

"Salmon! Shut up!" Lydia yelled back.

What else can I do?Hurry up.She held her breath and thought, wiped away her tears, could she still pull the quilt to sleep?

After the sky was completely dark, the temperature dropped sharply, and the crazy crowd seemed to have calmed down a little, and the commotion was much quieter than during the day.Lydia summoned two breads with her words, gnawed one by herself, and gave one to the follower beside her.The crowd subsided, and the surrounding area was quite empty. She slowed down, and in the second half of the night, she went to sit under a boulder and rested for half the night.

The young man next to her was still chattering, she smiled when she was in a calm mood, and bowed her head when she was in a bad mood.When can't stand it and leave, she thought wearily.

Things finally turned around the next day.

By the time the sun rose, Lydia had been gone for a long time.She rubbed her eyes, and looked at the cliff in front of her in disbelief—she had already walked through the Rubik's Cube Valley?

The cliff on the opposite side was as flat as a knife-cut place where she came down, but there were patches of reddish-brown marks on it - like giant graffiti ten meters high!

So, was it painted by someone? !

The red to black paint is extremely eye-catching on the gray and white stone wall, and the painting is... a spider!

Lydia covered her thumping heart, waved away the crowd, and ran as fast as she could—spider!Those graffiti must have been done by the brigade!

"Sister? Sister!" The green fur behind her was still calling, but Lydia turned a deaf ear to her, separated from the person in front of her, and almost flew into the air.

The distance of a few hundred meters was fleeting. She ran to the bottom of the rock wall and saw a few small figures busy up and down on the rock wall more than ten meters away. They were writing next to the rock wall with spiders painted on it!

"Ah!" She let out a short scream of surprise, stood on the ground and rushed up, jumping and screaming, waving her hands excitedly, and shouting: "Hey, hey! Knight! Here!"

Standing on the fault of the cliff, the knight directed Wojin and Nobunaga above to continue painting. Hearing the shouts from below, he looked down and was pleasantly surprised: "It's Lydia!"

He jumped down from the top, jumped in front of Lydia, and said happily: "Hi, Lydia! Great, I found another one!"

Lydia almost cried with joy, finally found an organization!She grabbed the knight and asked a series of questions, "Are you all here? Where's Kurolo? Is he here?!"

As she spoke, she turned to look at the busy partners on the stone wall, Wojin, Nobunaga, Franklin, Kube...

I heard the knight say short of breath: "Uh, the leader is not here..."

"Not here? Then where is he?!" Lydia almost jumped up.

"Don't be in a hurry. Everyone is scattered, and I still don't know what's going on." The knight reassured her.

"What happened after I left?" Lydia quickly calmed down and asked.

"You went away for half an hour and didn't come back, so we knew something might have happened to you. Just as we were about to look for it together, I appeared in this valley in a blink of an eye." The knight spread his hands and said.He still had a bright smile on his face, but his eyes were gloomy, and he was also irritated by the situation in front of him.

"There are people around me who suddenly appeared like me. I cleared out a place, and then I met Wojin, and together we found Feitan, Nobunaga, Paknotan, Hisoka, Franklin, and Kube." Said the knight. "It seems that everyone in the brigade should be in this valley. Maggie and you found us by yourself. The only ones left are the leader, Finx, and Peeling Cracker. The task assigned now is, Maggie Qi, Paknotan, Feitan, and Hisoka went out to find someone, and the rest are here to make a mark."

"Marking?" Lydia asked.She looked at the graffiti on the mountain wall, in addition to the giant twelve-legged spider, there was a line of words: We are the Phantom Troupe, if you have the ability to catch us!

This is too cheap, right?

Lydia looked at the knight with a strange expression.

The knight said seriously: "We tried, but we can't get out of this valley by ourselves, and there is no signal here - in other words, we are trapped. We are still on Rubik's Cube Island, but according to the position of the sun in the sky, , I found that the Rubik’s Cube Island should no longer be in its original position.”

"What do you mean?"

"It means that we are now drifting on the ocean and can't leave by ourselves. If no one can find us, we can only be trapped here. So, I asked them to make some marks on the stone wall here-on the one hand to attract the rest of us. Our companions gathered here, on the one hand, we are also planning for the worst - if we have not found a way to leave here, at least we will be spotted when an airship passes by in the sky." Said the knight, also looking at the nonsensical provocation on the mountain wall , touched his head and said: "As for what to draw, that is their pleasure."

"You painted it with blood?" Lydia noticed the "paint" they used. There are still many corpses piled up under the cliff. No wonder there is a vacuum here, and there is no crazy crowd coming.

"If you paint with blood, it will all turn black in a while," she said.

"No way, this is the only paint we can find." The knight said with a smile, "March has a bottle of nail polish, but Kubi refuses to copy it as a paint. Now that you are here, let's change the paint."

So how many copies of a small bottle of nail polish must be copied to make up a bucket?Not to mention it only lasts 24 hours.She would not agree to change, Lydia thought in her heart.

"What color do you want? How about yellow?" She asked for a bucket of paint with her words, and piled it up next to it to form a hill, and said in her mouth, "What's so weird about this island? Why are we gathered here?"

"I don't know either." The knight said, "It probably has something to do with the legend of Rubik's Cube Island."

"What legend?" Lydia turned her head and asked.

"That tower." The knight pointed to the distance.When he wasn't smiling, the doll's face was grim.

Lydia looked in the direction he pointed, only to find a black tower popping up on the other side of the valley at some point!Obviously there was none yesterday!

"It just appeared this morning." The knight said, "The legendary witch's tower."

"What legend?" Lydia's originally relaxed expression turned cold.

"There is a legend on Rubik's Cube Island that there are witches living on this island. When the witch's black tower appears, disaster will come. Everyone on the island will die, and even the entire island will disappear-now it seems that the island is not disappearing, but It is to leave the original place."

"When will the tower appear?" Lydia asked sharply.

The knight's eyes were dark: "When someone covets the witch's magic power."

"Where's Kurolo? There's no news about him yet?" Lydia immediately thought of Kuroro, who disappeared as soon as he landed on the island. He chose the Rubik's Cube Island-this is really his style!

"No." The knight said, "Maqi and Paknotan are looking for the leader first, but there has been no news since yesterday. If the leader is also in the valley, it is impossible for him to find us by now. So Most likely, he's not here."

"Then where is he?!"

There seemed to be a fire burning in Lydia's heart - if the witch's tower appeared and the legendary disaster befalls, then what about Chrollo who is likely to steal the ability?Did he succeed, or did he fail?

"No! I'm going to find him!" She jumped up on the spot, turned around and was about to run away.

"Wait! Do you know where he is?" The knight quickly grabbed her and said, "How do you find him?"

"I'll always find him!" cried Lydia.

"Please, you..." The knight had no choice but to hold on to this scumbag.

Lydia was about to struggle when she heard a timid voice next to her say: "...Sister, I know where the Kuroro you mentioned is."

It's that green hair!

Lydia suddenly turned her head, stared at him, and asked forcefully, "You said, do you know where Kuroro is?"

The blue-haired and blue-eyed young man nodded, and said with a pure face: "This disaster was caused by him..."

"He's locked up in the Witch's Tower."

The author has something to say:

(Move here for the episode I posted before) This episode originated from a dream, so don’t talk too much about logic.

I now understand what it feels like to dream of a male god, and I will share it with you~
