After the three people passed through the portal, they came to a completely unfamiliar world. The sky here was so gray that they couldn't even see whether there was any sun. Moreover, the surroundings seemed to be filled with thick fog, making it impossible to see what was in the distance. environment of.

The portal behind them disappeared after they came out. As he said, the Blood Demon would not give anyone any more help. From now on, they could only explore this completely unfamiliar world on their own.

Suddenly, a faint and sharp sound like crying came from the distance, and in the thick fog in the distance, there seemed to be something extremely huge, moving slowly, but when you look carefully, But nothing can be seen.

When the sound appeared, Beina quietly hugged Qi Ling's arm. Her big and smart eyes kept looking around, looking very nervous, which made Qi Ling feel funny. This girl also said that she was not afraid. , obviously already scared to death.

At this time, Jianlan also hugged Qi Ling's other arm. Qi Ling asked doubtfully: "Jianlan, are you also afraid of these things?"

"Oh, Qi Ling, I'm a girl too, so of course I'll be scared. And the fog here is so thick. It would be bad if we got separated." Jianlan said with a smile, but she didn't show any sign of fear. .

In desperation, Qi Ling had no choice but to lead the two of them to search for clues. Soon, they found a path paved with stones in a dry forest, and they didn't know where it led.

"Let's go and take a look. Maybe we can find some clues." Qi Ling said.

The three of them walked forward along the gravel road. Not long after they walked, Beina suddenly pointed ahead in surprise and said: "Hey, Qi Ling, Gladiolus, look, there is a big scarecrow in front of you!"

In the direction that Bena pointed to, a scarecrow with a height of three meters stood on the roadside. On its two arms made of branches, one hand held an old copper lamp, and the other hand held up a Holding a sickle.

Although its face is also made entirely of straw, it doesn't know why, but it has a bloody mouth. The straw seems to have formed sharp teeth, which looks intimidating.

Out of curiosity, Bena walked towards the scarecrow, and Qi Ling frowned and observed, then said: "Beina, be careful. It is..."

Qi Ling originally wanted to remind Beina that the scarecrow was not a decoration, but a living thing, but it was too late. The scarecrow in front of Beina had already alarmed Qi Ling, and it made a sound like rust rubbing against it. His limbs were crawling towards Bena in a completely irregular manner.

"Eaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,!" Facing this sudden and strange thing, Bena was so frightened that she almost lost her mind. She even forgot to resist the attack and saw that the scarecrow's sickle was about to swing down.

Just when Qi Ling was about to take action, a sword light suddenly shot at the scarecrow from the side, directly cutting off one of its arms and making it lose its ability to attack.

After Beina reacted, she suddenly felt angry and angry. She pounced on him like a little tiger: "Damn it, you scared me, you scared me!" It didn't take long before the scarecrow was torn apart.

After Beina calmed down, she said to Qi Ling: "Really, okay, let's move on. I hope there won't be anything like this anymore. Otherwise, I'll tear them down one by one!"

Qi Ling pointed helplessly ahead and said, "You mean, that... group?"

"Huh?" After listening to Qi Ling's words, Beina slowly looked forward and saw a large group of scarecrows gradually revealed in the thick fog. Like this scarecrow, they stood there quietly, with sickles in their hands. Reflecting the cold light.

Seeing this group of monsters, Beina's face suddenly turned ugly. After hesitating for a while, she quietly slipped behind Qi Ling and silently grabbed the corner of Qi Ling's clothes.

Qi Ling looked at the scarecrows in front of him and couldn't help but frown. From the attack of Gladiolus just now, it can be seen that these things are not powerful monsters. They can even be said to be quite fragile and can be killed very easily.

Even if there are many of them, they will not pose any threat at all. Under normal circumstances, Qi Ling can kill them all without much effort.

But what really made Qi Ling hesitate was that the scarecrow, whose hand had been chopped off by Gladiolus and then dismantled by Beina, actually reassembled itself in just this moment and returned to its original location. In the same place, he regained his previous posture and remained motionless.

There is no doubt that these things are not afraid of being dismantled. In fact, Qi Ling began to wonder whether these things may not be alive at all. Their reaction is just like wood burning when exposed to fire. It is just a response. Exciting reaction.

"Sure enough, it is a weird place. If you attack easily, something bad might happen." Qi Ling said cautiously, "Jianlan, what do you think?"

Jian Lan also said slowly at this time: "My sword energy does not feel like it has struck life. These things should be dead objects and are controlled by a special force."

It's like shaking a fist at the sky. If you don't understand the principle of their existence, it is impossible to deal with them.

"Hey hey hey, distinguished guests, do you need help?" At this moment, a strange voice suddenly appeared, and then in Qi Ling's surprised eyes, a man in a cloak appeared in front of Qi Ling at some point. next to them.

Qi Ling was very sure that he had absolutely no feelings before and after this person appeared. It was as if he just existed in the air there, without any sense of existence. It was even impossible to judge whether he was a living entity.

Beina and Jianlan were also very surprised by the appearance of this person and had no feeling at all, so Qi Ling asked cautiously: "Who are you? What do you mean by help?"

The man continued to speak from the completely shrouded cloak: "Hey, hey, distinguished guests, don't be afraid. My name is Alsace, and I'm just a guide. All I have to do is bring people here." The guests are just taken to where they want to go."

"Do you know where we want to go?" Qi Ling asked.

"Hehehe, of course I know. Please ask a few of you to follow me." Then, Alsace walked forward without saying anything else.

After Qi Ling thought for a while, he led the two of them to follow Alsace. Then he quietly cut his finger and wiped his blood on his eyes.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it. At first glance, Qi Ling was immediately surprised and didn't know what to say, because there was only a green skull in the length of Alsace.

Thinking of what the Blood Demon said, Qi Ling felt speechless. Where would such an opponent who could not resist take the three of them go? Would it be better for them to escape now?

But then Qi Ling gave up this idea. He didn't know anything about this place. If he escaped without permission, the situation might be more complicated.

Under the leadership of Alsace, the scarecrows around them seemed to be unable to feel the breath of the three of them. They just watched them pass by without making any move, which made the always worried Bena feel good. A sigh.

"Qi Ling, tell me, is he really a good person? Otherwise, why would he take us out of there?" Beina said.

Qi Ling sighed helplessly: "Hey, Beina, I don't think there are any good people in a place like this. The reason why he took us away must have his own purpose."

"Hehehe, you're right, distinguished guests." Alsace obviously heard what they said and let out a weird laugh, "Before I tell you my purpose, I would like to ask you to guess a little riddle! Do you guys know where these scarecrows on the roadside come from?"

Qi Ling looked at the scarecrows on the roadside and found that the number of these things was far more amazing than he imagined! In the thick fog, there is simply an army of countless scarecrows!

"I don't know, but I think it won't be anything fun." Qi Ling said.

But Alsace smiled and said: "Oh, it's fun, it's so fun! These people are all the people who were defeated by fear and despair in the Howling Abyss, and then stayed behind! In other words, inside each of them , but there is a real soul inside!"

After hearing Alsace's words, the three of them were immediately surprised: "You, what are you talking about?! Are you saying that these scarecrows are actually the souls of living people?"

"That's right, the souls of people swallowed by despair and fear will stay here and become the eternal guardians here!" Arthas said, "Of course, the ones here are all weak ones, the truly powerful souls , and will become even stronger here.”

Qi Ling frowned and said: "In that case, why do so many people come to such a terrifying place? Couldn't they all be kidnapped by you?"

"Oh, dear guest, you are really good at joking. I, Fenben, don't have to do such a thing. There is an endless stream of people who want to come here every day!" Alsasi smiled, "After all, people's greed is always there. There is no end, and only the truly strong can take away what they want from here."

"What on earth is there that makes so many people flock to it?" Qi Ling asked.

"That's a lot. There are elixirs that can bring the dead back to life, powerful magic weapons, the supreme determination to decarbonize and change bones, and everything you want to get!" Alsace smiled, "Of course, there are also There is what you want, the former number one demon soldier in the world, Demon God Fang Tianji!"

"Demon God Square Tianji?" Qi Ling muttered silently. The Blood Demon said before that his weapon seemed to be called this name, but he clearly said that no one except him would know the whereabouts of this magic weapon. Why? Would this Alsace know?

As if sensing Qi Ling's doubts, Arthas continued: "Please don't be confused, I know everything in the Howling Abyss, because I am the Howling Abyss itself!"
