"If, I mean if, anyone can find this crystal orb, my purpose will be fulfilled…" The scene in the crystal orb shook slightly; it seemed like the crystal orb was turned to a different direction .

In front of the white tunnel, there was a red wooden door in the stone wall .

"Before entering this unknown door, I need to make a record . Although I don't know when we can leave Bone Tunnel and enter the Lost Realm, I still want to make sure that we have a record . " The woman's voice was deep and hoarse .

The woman moved closer to the wooden door and carefully observed the surface of the door .

There were many engravings on the door . The engravings were human mouths that varied in color: some were white, some were red, and some were black .

The mouths had different sizes and shapes . Some were screaming and some were crying .

"Alright, this is it . The door appeared from nowhere and we're about to enter it . "

The scene in the crystal orb was blurred for a second and turned black .

Angele's brow furrowed, he tapped on the orb but nothing happened .

Several seconds later, light returned to the orb but the scene was still blurry .

The woman started talking again, she was breathing heavily while trying to speak .

"Finally… We finally made it out… Is this thing on?"

"Yeah… It's activated…" The young man's voice appeared; he sounded a bit anxious . "Mom, what was that thing?"

"It's a monster! Don't worry, it's just a monster, I'll protect you…" The scene in the orb shook again but it was still blurry .

"The orb can't record images anymore I guess . Alright, this is the 354th day since we entered the wooden door . My pet is trying to stop that thing behind the door but I don't know how long my pet will survive . We've been running for days and I hope we can escape the tunnel before it catches up . "

"Mom…"

"Calm down… Don't worry! I'm here…" The woman was trying to calm the young man down .

*PA*

The light disappeared from the orb again .

Several minutes later, the crystal orb glowed and he could hear the woman talking .

"That thing is still coming for us… It has been two years but it never gives up… I don't know what I can do . We need to find the exit…"

The scene inside the orb suddenly got clear, Angele could see a woman with dirty clothes and hair . The woman was wearing a black outfit and it seemed like she had not showered for years .

"Don't worry, boy . I'm with you…" The woman was holding her child in arms .

"Mother… It's painful…"

Her child's body was covered by a piece of black cloth and his face was pale . It seemed like he was sick or injured .

"Calm down… I'm with you… Don't worry…" The woman started shaking her child . "You're sick, you just need some rest…"

"Mother…" The child slowly fell asleep in the woman's arms .

"No worries, I'm with you… No worries… I won't let you die… I won't!" The woman's terrified expression reflected on the crystal orb .

Angele's brow furrowed as he watched the scene quietly .

The scene was blurred for a couple seconds . The next time Angele could see things clearly, the orb was already on the ground .

The woman was holding the dead body of her child in arms . She was shaking the dead body slightly while singing a cradle song .

"Sleep baby… Sleep…" She was not facing the crystal orb and it seemed like she was chewing something . She sang as she walked into the shadow .

Angele moved closer and noticed that she was chewing slowly on her child's arms . The dead body of her child barely had any flesh left on the bones .

The boy's arms and legs had no flesh left on them . The mother even chewed some of the bones into pieces . The boy's face was still in one piece; although he was dead, Angele could see the desperation in his wide opened eyes .

The scene quickly disappeared from the orb after and he could not hear anything else .

"What's this? The tunnel turned them crazy?" Angele muttered as he checked the surroundings .

The areas in front of him and behind him were all dark . The fireball on his shoulder was the only source of light here .

He could only find white bones and random items on the ground . Some of the bones already turned into dust—it looked like snow that would never melt .

He put the crystal orb into his pouch and started advancing again . The bones under his leather boots made some light noises .

Angele left the ground and floated in the air . He decided to fly instead of walking .

　　***************************



Two months later…

*DI*

A high-pitched noise suddenly appeared in the tunnel .

It was Angele—he was wearing the same brown leather armor, but its surface was covered with white dust . He slowly landed on the ground and looked at the area ahead .

"It has been two months… How long is this tunnel… I've been flying at full speed but I can't even reach the end," he muttered . "The biochip tells me when to eat and drink . It's understandable that people would go crazy in an environment like this…"

The tunnel was still deadly silent, he was the only living being here .

Lowering his head, Angele started checking the items on the ground again .

There were shields, weapons, accessories, and clothes . He removed all the worthless items and the dust in the air almost turned into a mist .

*PA*

Angele picked up a black belt with silver edges and pulled it slightly .

"The items here are better than the items I found earlier…"

He rubbed the belt carefully and it released a thin silver glow . The glow disappeared after the light was absorbed by Angele's hands .

"A level 1 item…"

Blue light dots flashed in front of Angele's eyes—he quickly determined the level of the damaged magic device .

"The elemental power in the belt is impure, I'd never absorb it if it was not the only way to restore my energy here… Also, I need to consume a lot of food to support my bloodline ability but I don't have much left . It's a problem . "

*BAM*

He dropped the belt into the bones and the dust splashed in the air again .

Angele took out several pieces of meat jerky and a small purple potion from the mirror . He threw the meat jerky into his mouth and drank some potion from the tube .

He rested for several minutes and started flying again .

The tunnel ahead was dark, it felt like the tunnel was endless and he only had one route .

Two days passed in the blink of an eye .



Finally, something different appeared ahead .

It was a wooden door with white edges and the door was built into the wall on the left side of the tunnel .

Angele landed in front of the wooden door and narrowed his eyes . A thin layer of red energy barrier appeared around his body .

He grabbed the handle on the door and twisted it slightly .

*Crack*

The door opened and as a noise echoed in the tunnel .

The door was not fully opened, but the gap still revealed the red carpet on the ground .

Angele opened the wooden door and his body was immediately illuminated by white light .

Behind the door was a spacious hall with a red carpet on the floor .

There was music playing in the hall, it felt like the noise was from an old phonography . It was a woman singing in a voice that Angele could not understand at all . The voice was deep and strange .

The music sounded like a love song but Angele had no idea what the lyrics were .

Angele stood in front of the door and peeked through the gap .

On the other side of the hall was a large mirror . Angele's body was reflected in it .

He was a young man with red hair in the mirror, wearing tight leather armor that was covered in white dust . The long red hair was tied up and there was a rusty silver crossguard sword hanging on his belt .

Angele glanced around the hall, the wooden door was the only entrance and exit of the hall .

The only thing he could hear was the song the woman was singing .

He walked into the hall slowly and rubbed the yellow wallpaper carefully .

The wallpaper was a bit rough; he quickly tapped on it .

*PA*

It seemed like there was nothing behind the wall .

Angele took a step back and hit the wall hard with his fist .



*BAM*

The wall did not move an inch, the strike did not damage the wall at all .

"Huh?" Angele lowered his fist and formed a knife hand, and his body was surrounded by dark-red glow .

*CHI*

He hit the wall with his knife hand .

*PA*

The fingertips landed on the wall but nothing happened .

Angele's expression turned serious .

"Nothing happened even with the power of my true form…"

Suddenly, he found a moving shadow on the wall .

He quickly turned his head around and found walking clothes in the center of the hall . It felt like that there were invisible men and women wearing clothes . The clothes were dancing and moving around .

The clothes varied in color and style . Some were luxurious and some had lace on the edges .

The dancing clothes made different noises in the music .

Angele started moving backward carefully; he reached the door and was about to leave the area .

Suddenly, he found something that looked familiar .

A white dress .

The dress looked the same as the white dress worn by the woman in the painting .

He recognized the dress immediately .

The white dress was standing by the mirror quietly; the clothes beside the dress also looked familiar .

A white t-shirt and a pair of jeans .

"Xinrui's outfit…" Blue light dots flashed in front of Angele's eyes .

'Zero, analyze the environment for me now!'

'Analyzing… Visualizing the changes…'
