At this moment, Lin Ran was in a wasteland with no end in sight.
There is no grass growing here, just black soil and mud.
The sky was covered with black mist, like heavy clouds hanging overhead, but the mist was obviously not as thick as at the entrance to the space.
There is some light coming through in the sky, but it is completely unclear where the light source is.
When they entered this folded space, they were involved in different turbulences. When Lin Ran found a flat area, he could no longer see where Lao Liang and others were.
Lin Ran didn't know if the rules of time and space here could still be used universally, and he didn't know when he would be able to find his partners. However, he soon knew that the biggest problem was not these.
The biggest situation is-his source of power has been suppressed!
Yes, not only is Lin Ran no longer at the Star level, he has even been suppressed below the S level!
This is really terrible!
Specifically, the power of the source force is reduced sharply in equal proportions!
Even the source power blasted by the energy of the stars is soft once it leaves the body. This feeling is not as refreshing as punching to the flesh.
Lin Ran really didn't know what kind of space rule this was.
The strength decreases, the speed decreases, and the attack power decreases, let alone relying on the source of power to leave the body and directly push yourself to fly in the air!
If both the enemy and ourselves are like this, then it's okay, but if the enemy has strength above S level, then it will really be troublesome.
Looking at the endless black wilderness ahead and looking up at the gloomy sky, Lin Ran simply didn't know how to find his partner.
Even the radiating range of mental power is under control.
Here, it's like a huge prison.
Lin Ran tried to communicate with the four-color crystals. Fortunately, he could use the power in these crystals, but once these powers were used, they were limited to A-level. At most, he could heal faster.
That’s all.
Lin Ran really didn't know what kind of world this was. He tried shouting a few times, but the result was that the diffusion range of the sound was pitifully small, and it was not like it could spread all over the world like before.
However, at this time, Lin Ran keenly felt that Xiao Hei in his stomach was starting to get excited.
Before, when this guy saw Liang Xuean, he was so frightened that he curled up into a ball, but now he was like a fish that had just regained its freedom, swimming non-stop in its own pool of source power!
Lin Ran looked up and probably guessed the reason.
Because, the black mist rolling in the sky is mixed with a lot of netherworld power!
When Liang Xuean opened this space by instilling a large amount of Netherworld power into the space equipment, Lin Ran roughly guessed that 80% of this space had a close relative relationship with the Netherworld Passage.
Lin Ran opened his hands, and Xiao Hei had appeared in his palm. He seemed to be unable to hold back, like a primary school student after school on Friday afternoon.
Lin Ran looked at it and thought this timid guy was quite cute, so he said, "Let you out, but don't run too far. Be careful not to get eaten."
However, before he finished speaking, Xiao Hei was already flying into the sky with his head swaying, and soon disappeared into the rolling black mist high in the sky.
Lin Ran soon lost the telepathy between him and Xiao Hei.
"Okay, now I've lost another one."
Lin Ran shook his head and said nothing more. He believed that this area was safe for Xiao Hei. We all share the same ancestry, so the little guy should not be in any danger.
So, he could only look in one direction and start running quickly.
After running for a long time, I saw nothing, it was still dark.
Wherever he passed, Lin Ran did not feel the existence of any life, not even insects or plants.
This wilderness is like a dead land, a pure restricted area of life.
"Old Liang!"
"Han Xiqiao!"
"Monroe!"
Lin Ran shouted many times, but didn't receive any response.
He looked at the sky and couldn't help but miss the global notification of the starry sky battlefield.
At that time, at least there would be a guide to deduce some of the situation between the enemy and ourselves from the reports, unlike now, where they are just running around like a headless fly.
Moreover, this place is not different from the normal world like the starry sky battlefield, but is full of dark atmosphere, making people feel like they are in the end of hell. Both physically and mentally, they are full of powerlessness and depression.
feel.
"If the space rules here are artificially set, then how strong is the existence of such rules?" Lin Ran stopped and walked, many thoughts were rolling in his heart, and many thoughts were still there.
Rather bizarre.
But Lin Ran did not deny the thoughts deep in his heart. After all, the more bizarre it is, the closer it is to the truth.
After running quickly for a while, Lin Ran finally saw some ruins, as if a large area of the Temple of Agriculture in Hirland had been destroyed.
This architectural style is indeed somewhat like the medieval temples of Blue Star, and some of the collapsed ruins are like those churches with pierced domes on the distant planets, but the stones of these buildings are all pure black, and I don’t know what elements they contain.
of stones.
The area of this dilapidated building is not small. Lin Ran jumped to the highest point and looked around. He estimated that the area covered tens of thousands of square meters. If it were in a complete state, it would be spectacular.
Extreme.
Lin Ran carefully examined the broken walls again, and suddenly made a discovery that sent chills down his spine.
Because it seems that these buildings have not collapsed for a long time! Those broken edges have not experienced the weathering of time!
"I'm going..." Lin Ran saw a pile of crushed bones under a ruin. There must have been at least a dozen people.
The flesh and blood is gone, but the bones are not to the point of withering.
Lin Ran wiped a handful of bones, and then said to himself: "Probably, this place has been destroyed for about ten years."
Ten years ago…
Lin Ran compared the timeline in his mind. He wanted to recall what happened ten years ago. However, as he was not very familiar with the history of the distant planet, he really couldn't remember anything.
He rummaged along the ruins, but didn't find anything particularly useful, but he could always feel the weight of history from these ruins.
However, when Lin Ran reached the largest collapsed building, the most shocking thing happened.
Because, he suddenly saw that among the ruins, there was a huge stone tablet broken into more than a dozen pieces.
The first time Lin Ran saw this stone tablet, he had already put the broken fonts together in his mind!
In order to verify the puzzle in his mind, he moved the broken stone tablets piece by piece and put them together neatly.
Looking at the two huge words on the stone tablet, Lin Ran's hair stood up.
Because, those two words are clearly——
Netherworld!
…………
Lin Ran sat on the broken stone tablet, thinking about everything about Netherworld.
He knew that the Netherworld Temple on Blue Star was a branch of the Netherworld Organization on the distant planet, just like the ideal country established by the Ideal Sect on Blue Star.
The Netherworld is obviously the most powerful force on the distant planets. Its strength even exceeds that of the top sovereign countries in the first order. Even the powerful God of Death rebelled from the Netherworld.
Even in Blue Star, Lin Ran was deeply influenced by the Temple of the Netherworld, and he has never been able to uncover the mystery of the Netherworld.
However, after he came to the distant planet, he found that this once extremely powerful organization had become extremely low-key and had almost no sense of existence. It never participated in any international battles and seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
I don’t know if this Netherworld has really declined, or if it was erased by someone using powerful means.
While the conservative forces struggled to resist the radicals, and when Blue Star faced a large-scale invasion, Netherworld, which was once the number one force, still stood still.
At that time, in Lin Ran's opinion, the mysterious Nether Organization should have encountered similar problems to the Flame Temple. The top boss in the organization was absent, the organization was in chaos, and it was unable to participate in external affairs.
But now, Lin Ran's judgment has changed somewhat - if the scene before him is true, then the problems encountered by the Netherworld Temple are much more troublesome than he imagined!
The mysterious Nether Organization headquarters may have been destroyed ten years ago or more! All the ruins are in this space!
As for whether this space was originally the location of the Netherworld organization, or whether Netherworld was later included in this space, it is unknown!
Lin Ran now speculates that the Netherworld organization that still remains on the distant planet may be just a branch maintained by a subordinate who was lucky enough to survive in the Netherworld headquarters. Now, that branch may no longer exist.
!
Lin Ran probably knew that this dark folded space should be movable. It must be a space that merged with distant planets as it floated around, swallowing up Han Xiqiao and Bian Yongxian... He didn't know this.
A piece of netherworld ruins, could it be that it was separated from the world of the distant planet for this reason?
As for more details, Lin Ran was a little confused. He couldn't help but feel that one of his heads was as big as two.
Calculating the time silently in his mind, he felt that about two hours had passed.
However, this wilderness was still very quiet, with only the sound of wind and Lin Ran's breathing.
Lin Ran explored this Netherworld ruins and found nothing else of great value. The four crystals in the Netherworld Ring did not respond to being activated, so he continued to move forward.
However, at this time, he finally felt a little breath of life, and a large area of bushes and woodland was reflected in his field of vision.
As for the atmosphere at this moment, it is still extremely gloomy.
Several hare-like creatures emerged from the grass. When they saw Lin Ran, they immediately scattered and ran into the distance.
"It's good if there are animals and plants. At least this is a world where life can survive." Lin Ran thought to himself, "Maybe there is just something different about the wilderness with the netherworld ruins just now."
Now Lin Ran suddenly had the idea of exploring the mystery of Netherworld's destruction - if those ruins were really where Netherworld was.
However, although life has been discovered now, the black mist and clouds in the sky are still there.
However, next, something that surprised Lin Ran even more finally happened.
Because, he heard shouts of death coming from the distance.
A man wearing heavy armor, dragging a heavy knife, was being chased by more than a dozen men in black.
When Lin Ran saw this scene, he became happy on the spot! Those dull moods were also swept away!
It’s actually...Bian Yongxian!
Seeing that the opponent was being chased so miserably, Lin Ran did not take action immediately, but actually climbed up a tree to watch the pursuit scene in the distance at leisure.
Bian Yongxian hadn't seen Lin Ran yet, and the frustration he felt at this moment could not be described in words.
After finally breaking through the stars, he came to look for Han Xiqiao, but before he had time to show off his skills, he didn't even see his old friends. After a gust of wind blew by, he was inexplicably involved in a netherworld storm, and then...
No more consciousness!
When Bian Yongxian regained consciousness, he was lying on the ground, surrounded by a group of men in black. Those people seemed to be studying how to unlock his heavy armor.
After all, Yongxian here is covered in armor so airtight that even if he wants to kill him, there is no way to do it!
After Bian Yongxian woke up, he felt humiliation and anger mixed in his heart. He felt that looking at the entire distant planet, there was no star that was more aggrieved than him.
As a result, Warrior Bian became angry and started to fight back with his sword.
However, since his source power level has been suppressed below S level, his attack power has dropped sharply, so he is very uncomfortable and uses all kinds of moves. In the end, not only does he not hurt the enemy, but he is beaten to the ground.
In particular, he often swung a knife from dozens of meters away, only to find that the enemies on the opposite side were all standing still, not even injured at all, and they all looked at him as if he was an idiot. It was such a feeling.
It's so bad.
The old man is panting now. After all, this armor is too heavy. In order to pursue the ultimate defense, when he was building this armor, he piled up all kinds of high-defense materials like crazy, which caused the weight of this armor.
It can also be called the ultimate.
In the past, he was at the peak of S-level, and later he broke through the stars. The weight of this kind of armor can be almost ignored, but now his source power level is suppressed by the rules of space to A-level, which makes this heavy-armored warrior a little bit too much.
, the footsteps at this moment are simply heavier than ever before, and the inside of the heavy armor is already dripping with sweat!
Now, while Bian Yongxian was dragging a heavy knife to escape, he saw the opportunity and struck back with a knife, knocking down a man in black.
However, when he made such a move, his speed was greatly affected, and several knives fell on his armor in an instant!
Clang, clang, clang! Crack, clang!
Those long knives fell on the heavy armor, but they were unable to hurt Bian Yongxian at all.
This is a heavy armor that can block the attacks of star warriors. Warriors below S level are naturally helpless!
Only then did Bian Yongxian realize this reality that was extremely beneficial to him!
If I had known this, why would I run?
No matter how I stand and let you cut me, you won't be able to cut me through!
Bian Yongxian then started to swing his knife, and it took him a while to harvest all the lives of these men in black.
There was nothing he could do. Carrying such a heavy load made his movements too slow. He could only rely on his super defense to compete with the enemy to see who had thicker blood.
After taking care of these people, Bian Yongxian sat down on the ground, took off his helmet, and panted.
Sweat was dripping from his hair, and his whole body looked like he had just emerged from the water.
However, the clear sound of applause suddenly sounded above his head.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
There are intervals between each round of applause, full of deep mockery.
Lin Ran clapped his hands and said, "It's not bad, but the movements are a bit ugly. The way you just started, it looked like bears fighting."
Bian Yongxian looked up and was extremely surprised!
"Hey, Lin Ran!"
He shouted and was about to fly up immediately. However, this guy forgot that he was not strong enough. He finally jumped up a few meters, but was pulled down by the heavy armor on his body! He fell heavily to the ground!
"Look at how stupid you are. You took a long time to chop those pieces of trash. It's so embarrassing."
Lin Ran shook his head and jumped down.
Bian Yongxian sat up with difficulty, and then he came back to his senses: "You just saw me finish the whole game, and you didn't help me?"
Lin Ran smiled and said, "I just want to watch the bear dance a little longer."
Then, he pulled Bian Yongxian up from the ground, and the two hugged heavily.
"What is the origin of this wretched place?" Bian Yongxian asked immediately: "I was originally still on the border of the Mugung Kingdom, how could I come here so silently?"
Lin Ran looked at the other person's head that was still sweating, and said with a smile: "Well, it seems that all the water in your brain has come out."
"I'm telling you seriously..." Bian Yongxian took a few more deep breaths and said, "I suspect that Han Xiqiao was swallowed up by this space without even realizing it."
"No need to doubt it, it's true." Lin Ran patted Bian Yongxian's big head: "Tell me something I don't know. Who are the people who were chasing you just now? Have you figured it out?"
"It could be..." Bian Yongxian took a deep breath: "Maybe he is an aborigine of this folded space."
"Are there still indigenous people here?" Lin Ran narrowed his eyes.
"Isn't that true? I doubt they have ever seen outsiders at all, and they are very surprised when they see me." Bian Yongxian said.
"That's because they have never seen the person in the condom." Lin Ran laughed.
"You know how to make fun of me." Bian Yongxian said angrily: "By the way, we have to make a plan to find Han Xiqiao."
Lin Ran shook his head and put away his smile slightly: "Stop making plans. If we can survive first, that's good."
"Is it so serious?" Bian Yongxian said: "No matter how dangerous this place is, can it still compare to the starry sky battlefield back then? Back then, we fought against so many stars."
"Perhaps, it's not of the same magnitude at all." Lin Ran said.
"Okay, let's continue looking for them." Bian Yongxian said, "By the way, who else has come in?"
"A few beauties." Lin Ran said, kicking Bian Yongxian's heavy armor: "This thing is so heavy, why don't you just throw it away?"
"No, if I didn't wear this armor, it would be as if I had no clothes." As Bian Yongxian spoke, he put on his heavy helmet again.
Lin Ran smiled when he saw this and didn't say much. At least, being reunited with his old comrades made him feel a lot better at the moment.
"Do you still remember where you ran from just now?" Lin Ran asked.
Bian Yongxian turned his heavy head, recalled the direction, raised his finger and pointed, saying: "It's right here, about...a few kilometers away from here."
"Let's go, let's raid their hometown." Lin Ran said.
"Hey, that's exactly what I want!" When Bian Yongxian heard this, his blood immediately boiled.
After that, he carried the heavy knife and followed behind Lin Ran, leaving footprints several centimeters deep on the ground with every step he took.
Lin Ran couldn't help but feel speechless when he saw this: "Aren't you completely exposed by doing this?"
"No, in fact, you can think that I am leaving traces for Han Xiqiao and the others. With her IQ, when she sees these special footprints, she will definitely think that it is me." Bian Yongxian said happily.
"Okay, you have convinced me."
Lin Ran shook his head, looked at the heavy guy, and said, "You don't know how long it will take to get here."
After saying that, he actually picked up Bian Yongxian on his back and ran forward!!
"My dear, are you so energetic?" Bian Yongxian asked with a smile: "Do you know how much I weigh now?"
"I outlast you!"
What Lin Ran said is true. Although his power output is limited to A level, his victory is constant. This has always been his BUG.
However, after arriving at the settlement, Lin Ran saw from a distance that hundreds of men in black were gathering in front of a black hall, seemingly preparing to pursue Bian Yongxian.
"That's this group of people." Bian Yongxian lay on Lin Ran's back and said, "The one in the middle is the meeting hall, and the surrounding bungalows are their residences. There are pots, pans, and women in them. I
While escaping, a house collapsed and the woman inside didn’t even have any clothes!!”
Lin Ran said contemptuously: "Escape? You seem quite proud to say this word from the mouth of a star like you?"
"They probably didn't expect that I, the hostage who just ran away, is back again, hehe." Bian Yongxian said: "Let's kill them and give them a surprise!"
"Okay, then give them a surprise!"
Lin Ran said, and with a sudden force of his arms, he threw Bian Yongxian out!
"Fuck, what are you doing?"
Bian Yongxian shouted in the air!!
Then, those men in black saw the captain who was lecturing them in front widened his eyes.
These people turned their heads and looked back.
Their expressions soon turned to horror!
Because, a heavily armored bear leaped two to three hundred meters and was tumbling over in the air!!
The visual scene was so shocking that these men in black could not react at all!
boom!
Immediately afterwards, Bian Yongxian slammed into the dense crowd!
