Dai Shiya stood in front of the mysterious power barrier, her eyes fixed on the flashing strange symbols, and the questions in her heart surged like a tide.
She observed carefully, trying to find clues to decipher from these symbols.
The air around her seemed to solidify, the tense atmosphere became more intense, and even breathing became heavy.
Her brows were furrowed, and beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, but she did not back down.
She stretched out her fingers again and gently stroked the symbols on the barrier, feeling the energy they radiated.
Those symbols seemed to have their own lives, and every touch would emit a weak electric current, making her fingertips slightly numb.
She closed her eyes, and the formulas and symbols in her mind spun rapidly like a whirlwind. She tried hard to find the clue to solve the puzzle.
Suddenly, a powerful recoil force broke out from the barrier and hit Dai Shiya hard.
Her body flew backwards uncontrollably and hit the ground heavily.
The severe pain instantly spread throughout her body, and she felt a strong dull pain in her chest, and she could hardly breathe.
She was also shocked mentally, her mind was in a mess, and the scene in front of her became blurred.
"Damn it!" Dai Shiya cursed in a low voice, with a hint of despair in her voice.
She barely supported her body, her vision became a little blurry, and the scenery around her became dim.
Despite this, she still did not give up, she knew that this was definitely not an ordinary obstacle, but a trap carefully arranged by the mastermind behind the scenes.
Just as she was about to try again, she suddenly felt a warm power coming from the black metal box on her waist.
She slowly reached out to the box, and her fingertips touched the small black disc as big as a fingernail, and immediately felt a familiar and powerful energy surging into her body.
"This will never be the end." Dai Shiya whispered, her voice firm and full of determination.
She took a deep breath, stood up again, and looked at the barrier in front of her with a firm gaze.
Dai Shiya's eyes seemed to have some kind of connection between them, like a precise gear biting together, driving the operation of the entire barrier.
She slowly stretched out her hand again, this time, her fingertips were no longer blindly testing, but with a clear goal, accurately pressing on two adjacent symbols.
There was a tingling sensation at her fingertips, and a slight electric current flowed through her body, but this time, she did not feel the slightest repulsion, but rather it was as if she had found the key to unlock the mechanism. The
corners of her mouth slightly raised, and the light in her eyes became more and more blazing. She could feel that the energy flow of the barrier had a slight unstable fluctuation, just like a small stone was thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.
She knew that she had found the weak point of the barrier.
The dawn of hope flashed in her heart, and the oppressive atmosphere also loosened a little.
However, just as Dai Shiya's mouth just raised a slight arc, the air around her suddenly became restless.
A slight "whoosh" sound came from her ears, as piercing as a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, and her nerves instantly tensed up. The fighting instinct she had developed over the years made her immediately aware of the coming of danger.
She suddenly jumped back, her figure as fast as lightning.
At the place where she had just left, countless small black hidden weapons shot like raindrops, deeply nailed to the ground, making a creepy "puff" sound.
"Sure enough, there is an ambush!" Dai Shiya's heart trembled. She shuttled among the hidden weapons like a ghost. Every dodge was extremely accurate. Every landing point was carefully calculated without any unnecessary movements.
She danced like a light swallow in the dense hidden weapon attacks. Every dodge was with a palpitating elegance.
However, the remnant forces behind the scenes obviously did not intend to let her go easily. The attacks of the hidden weapons were more intensive and the angles were more tricky.
They chased after her like maggots on the tarsal bones, as if they wanted to tear her apart completely.
Dai Shiya felt a cold wind brushing past her ears. Her cheek was scratched by the hidden weapon, leaving a shallow blood mark. The burning pain instantly stimulated her nerves.
She licked the corner of her mouth, and a hint of blood spread in her mouth, which made her calmer.
While dodging the dense hidden weapons, she observed the surrounding environment and looked for opportunities to counterattack.
"It seems that they are ready to play for real." A low voice sounded in the silent space, with a hint of carelessness.
Dai Shiya was slightly stunned. She did not look back, but the corners of her mouth curved slightly.
Dai Shiya's eyes were as sharp as torches, scanning the surrounding environment.
She noticed that some building materials were scattered not far away. The steel bars, wooden boards, and stones looked particularly abrupt in the dim light.
A bold idea formed in her mind.
She took a deep breath, tapped her toes lightly, and her figure floated towards a pile of steel bars like a ghost.
Her slender fingers flexibly fiddled with the steel bars, erecting them one by one to form a simple defense barrier.
The "swoosh" sound rang again, and the black hidden weapon came like a rainstorm, hitting the steel bars, making a crisp metal collision sound and splashing sparks.
The hidden weapon was blocked and failed to hurt Dai Shiya at all.
A sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Dai Shiya did not stop her actions. She quickly piled the wooden boards and stones between the steel bars to reinforce this temporary defense.
Hidden weapons kept hitting the fortifications, making dense collision sounds, like a rainstorm hitting the eaves, deafening. After
the construction was completed, Dai Shiya hid behind the fortifications, holding her breath and waiting for the opportunity to counterattack.
She knew that blindly defending would only put herself in a passive position, and only by taking the initiative could the situation be reversed.
"It's time to fight back." Dai Shiya whispered to herself, with a cold light flashing in her eyes.
She poked her head out from behind the fortifications and observed the enemy's position.
She noticed that the enemy was hiding in the dark, using the terrain and shadows for cover, making it difficult to catch their traces.
Dai Shiya frowned slightly, and quickly calculated countermeasures in her mind.
She noticed that there were some rubble scattered on the ground, of different sizes and shapes.
A new plan formed in her mind.
She bent down, picked up a few pieces of rubble of the right size, and held them in her hands.
She took a deep breath, aimed at the direction of the enemy, and threw the rubble in her hand.
The rubble flew out like an arrow from a string, cutting through the air and making a sharp sound of breaking through the air.
"Ah!" A scream pierced the night sky, and a black shadow fell out of the darkness, covering the injured part and rolling on the ground in pain.
Dai Shiya did not hesitate at all, picked up a few pieces of gravel again, and threw them at the other black shadows.
Screams came one after another, and the black shadows fell to the ground one after another.
Dai Shiya looked at the repelled enemies, and a sense of pride surged in her heart.
The joy of victory refreshed her spirits, and her tired body seemed to be injected with new energy.
However, the short-lived victory did not let her relax her vigilance.
She knew that this was only temporary, and the enemy could come back at any time.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm the excitement in her heart.
She knew that she could not be stopped by the difficulties in front of her, but the physical fatigue and mental pressure made her a little shaken.
She struggled between persistence and giving up, and her expression was sometimes firm and sometimes hesitant.
Suddenly, she felt an inexplicable uneasiness, and a feeling of being spied on made her creepy.
"Who is it?"
Thinking of her husband and Wei Qing still anxiously waiting for her outside the barrier, a warm current surged into Dai Shiya's heart.
She seemed to see her husband's deep and concerned eyes, hear Wei Qing's encouraging voice, and feel their warm company.
This power dispelled the confusion and fear in her heart and rekindled her fighting spirit.
She clenched her fists, and her eyes became firm again, like a bright star, shining with the light of hope in the darkness.
"I can't fall down, I must break through this barrier!" She shouted silently in her heart, her voice firm and powerful.
Dai Shiya put her hand on the symbol of the barrier again, and this time, she injected all her energy.
The symbol on the barrier began to flash violently, emitting dazzling light, and the surrounding air was distorted.
A strong suction force sucked her in, and she felt as if she was in a huge vortex, the sky was spinning, and the ears were whistling.
When she opened her eyes again, she found herself in a completely unfamiliar space.
Thick fog filled the surroundings, and visibility was almost zero.
She could only vaguely see the scene a few meters away, and everything else was shrouded in fog.
There was a damp and decayed smell in the air, which made her feel sick.
The slippery mud under her feet was soft and felt like she would sink into it at any time.
"Where is this place?" Dai Shiya whispered to herself, with a hint of doubt and uneasiness in her voice.
She took a tentative step forward, and the mud under her feet made a "crunching" sound, which made her feel creepy.
She looked around carefully, trying to find some clues, but she could not see anything except the thick fog.
Suddenly, she heard a slight "rustling" sound, as if something was moving in the fog.
She was startled and immediately alert.
She held her breath and listened carefully to the movements around her, trying to determine the source of the sound.
"Who is there?" Dai Shiya asked in a low voice, with a hint of nervousness in her voice.
However, the only answer she got was silence.
The fog was still thick, and everything around seemed particularly strange.
"Tap, tap, tap..."
A slight sound of footsteps came from the fog, getting closer and clearer.
Dai Shiya's heart was beating violently, and she clenched the weapon in her hand, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and a vague figure gradually emerged from the fog.
Dai Shiya squinted her eyes, trying to see the face of the person coming, but the fog was too thick and she could only see a vague outline.
"Who are you?" Dai Shiya asked again, with a hint of vigilance in her voice.
The figure did not answer, but slowly walked towards her.
As the figure approached, Dai Shiya's heartbeat became faster and faster, and she felt an inexplicable fear rising from the bottom of her heart.
"Don't come over!" Dai Shiya shouted, but as soon as she finished her words, the figure suddenly disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
"What's going on?" Dai Shiya was full of doubts and uneasiness.
She looked around, but there was still only thick fog around her and she couldn't see anything.
"I know you are here." A gloomy voice suddenly sounded in her ears, making her tremble all over.
"Who? Who is talking?" Dai Shiya asked in horror, but as soon as she finished her words, something cold suddenly pressed against her neck.
"Don't move."
