Chapter 400: Chapter 255
Sure, here is the translated text:
The wind howled furiously, causing sand and stones to fly.
The wind was rapidly intensifying, and the trembling sensation of the ground was becoming even stronger.
It felt as if an earthquake had struck, causing everyone within the manor to sway and stagger, almost unable to stand upright.
The trees outside the manor were similarly being manipulated by the wild wind, their thick branches twisted painfully, emitting a low creaking sound.
It seemed to be a protest against the violent force of nature.
"What’s happening? Is it an earthquake?"
Li Dingjian stumbled forward, shouting loudly, his gaze anxiously fixed on the Professor and Fang Cheng.
Trying to get a definitive answer from them.
But his voice sounded exceptionally weak amid the howling of the wind, as if it could be blown away at any moment.
The Professor frowned deeply, his expression particularly grave at the moment:
"Not sure... it might be an earthquake, or maybe the Lu Family has activated some mysterious means."
"After all, there are many secrets hidden within the Lu Family Manor, and perhaps they’ve set up some safeguard to protect the Golden Benba Bottle..."
As he spoke, his sharp gaze scanned the strange phenomena around him.
Thick mist surged like turbulent waves, driven by the wind, rolling rapidly in, wave after wave sweeping through.
The wind did not disperse the mist; instead, it made visibility even more blurred, with only chaotic darkness remaining a few steps away.
After surveying the area, the Professor’s gaze fell on Fang Cheng, who stood firmly beside him.
This young man had previously mentioned having a foreboding feeling; could it truly be coming true?
Fang Cheng’s pupils faintly glowed red as he activated "Eagle Eye Vision" to observe the changes in the surrounding environment.
Two lines of sight shot through the holes in his mask, piercing the dense, ink-like fog.
After adjusting for the degree of light distortion, Fang Cheng’s visual sensitivity and range greatly increased.
Despite being in such harsh conditions, he was able to maintain basic visual capabilities.
He concentrated to perceive the external situation, not missing any abnormal movement, ready to face unknown dangers at any time.
Vaguely, he saw many silhouettes moving within the forest.
Initially, Fang Cheng instinctively thought they might be other Treasure Hunters caught in the situation.
But when he concentrated and looked again, a chill surged up his spine.
Something was wrong!
Among those silhouettes, there were indeed Treasure Hunters, but most of them radiated an inexplicable eeriness.
Their outlines were distorted severely, unlike any normal human form.
The angle of their limbs and the way their bodies continually stretched and transformed were completely beyond normal understanding.
As if they were Evil Ghosts released from Hell, appearing indistinctly, drifting erratically in the dark amid the howling wind and rippling fog.
Fang Cheng’s heart stirred slightly, he closed his eyes and immediately heightened his other sensory capabilities.
In an instant, a faint whispering sound surged into his ears.
Interwoven and entangled with the roaring wind, it seemed to compose a horrific symphony in the chaotic darkness.
Then his nostrils twitched slightly, smelling a strong sulfur scent.
It was as if a slippery venomous snake had crawled into his nostrils, making him almost sneeze.
Moreover, Fang Cheng distinctly felt an unusual energy fluctuation from the air, like a giant stone thrown into a silent lake, creating ripples that spread circularly.
As the ripples spread, strange lights invisible to the naked eye seeped out slowly from beneath the manor, emerging.
They agilely traversed, interweaving, gradually sketching out complex and mysterious patterns, akin to characters from ancient heavenly scriptures, hiding endless mysteries.
"What did you see?"
The Professor suddenly asked, his gaze fixed on Fang Cheng who was looking down at the ground.
Fang Cheng lifted his head, squinted his eyes, and slowly replied:
"I see... there’s a massive Array beneath us, seemingly designed to seal some space."
Upon hearing this, the Professor and Li Dingjian’s faces changed color.
Just then, the wind suddenly calmed significantly, and the trees and buildings on the ground ceased their violent trembling.
The entire manor seemed to have sailed smoothly into a tranquil harbor from a stormy ocean.
Afterward, sporadic voices could be heard faintly around.
Originally panicked and hiding, everyone now stuck their heads out again, eyes widened, looking around incredulously.
They felt a sigh of relief and tried to explore the cause of the sudden change earlier.
However, Fang Cheng knew that the Array beneath them still existed, indicating the danger had not vanished.
Thinking about it, he immediately picked up the walkie-talkie, preparing to contact Black Wolf and others to ask their whereabouts.
Then plan to evacuate this peculiar manor together at once.
But after pressing the talk button, only the buzzing sound of current could be heard from the walkie-talkie, with no signal being transmitted at all.
Fang Cheng’s heart sank involuntarily, and the ominous feeling within him grew deeper.
Turning his gaze, he saw the two individuals beside him standing still, their facial expressions continuously changing, revealing a sense of gravity and confusion.
Judging by their looks, though they weren’t using any communication devices, they seemed to be somehow silently and stealthily communicating with their teammates.
After the two seemed to finish their silent exchange, Fang Cheng stepped forward and asked:
"Are you able to contact your other teammates now?"
As he said this, he shook the walkie-talkie in his hand and added:
"Since the earthquake started earlier, it seems like wireless signals are getting blocked here; my walkie-talkie is completely out of order."
