Mystery: When the Fool Meets the Masked Fool

Chapter 179 How to Write a Good Airborne Character

Outside of reality.

There is a deep darkness here, and in the depths of the darkness are endless storms and occasional lightning.

In the occasional light, you can vaguely see a vast land composed of deep red rocks, and see several ancient pyramid-like buildings standing there. Behind the buildings, you can see the deep darkness and twinkling stars.

In this exiled land where darkness and storms intertwine, there exist layers of light balls that collapse and condense, seeking qualitative change.

They were transparent, star-shining insects.

Star Bug.

They seemed to form a figure constructed of layers of doors. This figure was robed in blood-colored tides, and its shape was constantly twisting and changing, reflecting different planets and different regions.

The figure looked extremely painful, crouching on the ground, curled up, with swarms of star bugs crawling around on his body.

As a mythical creature that represents the gate, the Star Worm shouldn't have gotten out of control so easily, but this actually happened.

They seem to be affected by [breeding].

The star worms uncontrollably split and reproduced themselves, then shattered and disappeared into thin air.

This made the figure even more distorted. From time to time, a bulge would appear somewhere on it, and then it would suddenly break, scattering debris all over the ground.

The form of this out-of-control mythical creature is twisted and crazy enough that any creature below the level of an angel will lose control the moment they see it.

His organ, which looked like a mouth and was composed of countless insects, kept opening and closing, emitting one cry after another that no one could hear.

"Don't save me... Don't save me..."

However, according to Murphy's Law, the more a person fears something, the more likely it is to happen.

So is God.

"Sir, you look very unwell. Is there anything I can help you with?" An elegant and gorgeous male voice sounded.

"Don't...save me..." Mr. Men didn't answer, but just kept repeating.

"My apologies, sir. I don't know what you're worried about, but standing idly by is unbecoming of a knight."

Footsteps were heard, accompanied by the sound of armor clashing.

The knight with rose-red hair stood in front of Mr. Men.

His voice was sonorous and powerful.

Receiving no response, the knight continued, "This is the first time we've met, but I can already sense your beautiful soul."

"I would like to pay my respects to you with the heavy weight of a rose. Please allow me to use my humble efforts to dispel the haze for you."

Mr. Men no longer refused. He was silent for a few seconds, then smiled and said, "Good evening, sir. Um... it should be evening, after all, it's always evening here."

A flash of lightning streaked across the sky, bringing a slight hint of light.

"You are truly a kind knight. Hmm... In that case, may I ask how you came to be here?"

"I don't know." Yinzhi shook her head sincerely. "About half a system hour ago, I took my 'Rare and Incredible' ship through a wormhole and ended up here."

"Rare and Incredible? Is that the spaceship over there?" Mr. Men turned his gaze to the red spaceship behind Yinzhi.

"Yes." Yinzhi nodded.

"That's great." Mr. Men looked very happy. "I would like to ask you for a favor, can you?" "Please go ahead." Yinzhi smiled and nodded.

"As you can see, I am now a poor man with no home to return to."

"Are you being ostracized?" Yinzhi looked very concerned.

"Yes, they also cast a curse on me." Mr. Men looked very sad. "If possible, please set up a ritual to help me escape. That way, the curse will no longer exist."

"Of course." Yinzhi nodded, "But I also have a request."

"You say." Mr. Men answered in a good mood.

"Please return this body to the gentleman from before."

At sea, the Kallen Fantasy.

Looking at the formula in his hand, Otto Apokalis tapped the armrest of the chair with his slender fingers.

Sequence 5, Puppet Master. Main Ingredients: Ancient Wraith Dust, Six-Winged Gargoyle Core Crystal.

Supplementary materials: 80 ml of water from the Golden Spring on Sonia Island, 10 grams of bark from the dragon-patterned tree, the residual spiritual power of an ancient vengeful spirit, and a pair of six-winged gargoyle eyes.

Ascension ceremony: Take the potion while listening to the mermaid's song.

The sheet of paper with the recipe was scribbled over and over, with most of the ingredients crossed out. The word "mermaid" was circled in red.

Otto flipped the page casually, continuing to look at other information in his hand while chatting with another person next to him.

"Are you sure this 'Church of Joy' only appeared recently?" Otto pointed at an area on the information.

"Well...at least I've never heard of it before." The sailor next to him answered casually.

Because this "Admiral Honkai" has always been very easy-going, no one on the ship is afraid of him.

Otto smiled and nodded, not knowing what he was thinking.

Time passed slowly as we chatted and watched.

Otto always managed to strike up a conversation with the crew, no matter what the topic was.

At this time, a crew member who aspires to become a writer is asking Otto a question.

"Master Otto, how do you write a good parachuting character?"

Just as Otto was about to answer, a thin, ethereal voice reached his ears.

That is the mermaid's song.

Otto's ears twitched slightly and he raised his head. Without him doing anything, the sound spread throughout the entire ship at once.

"Just stop here."

Standing up, Otto straightened his clothes and walked towards the cabin door.

At the door, he looked back at the crew member and answered the question with a smile.

"Why don't you just let him parachute everywhere?"
