The group of them acted separately. Lin Jiu, cute girl, and Honglian chose a direction and set off alone. Yin Sabella led Gungun in the same direction.
The route Lin Jiu chose was close to the city wall of this ancient city, and he explored along the city wall. The ancient city wall on the outskirts of the city seemed to have been standing here since ancient times. The wall that was hundreds of meters high was already covered with bits of moss.
, this is the trace of the passage of time, evidence of the vicissitudes of life.
The Heavenly Lock on his left arm extended to the city wall and locked an object. Lin Jiu used this to easily climb onto the city wall. In this city, there are few buildings taller than the outer city. In this city, it seems to be to resist something.
From the city wall built to fight the enemy, one can almost see the whole city clearly.
You can see more than 90 streets of various sizes in the city, with a strict and regular layout. Most of the houses have black roofs. Except for the roofs, most of the lines of urban buildings look pale. Most of the buildings are made of gray-white stones and are arranged in an orderly manner.
It's orderly. However, the original white walls are now mottled and blackened, and there are many signs of peeling off. The stone slabs of the streets are bumpy and convex, and the houses along the streets have rotten signs hanging outside, and the cloth covers are swaying.
After Lin Jiu looked at the layout of the city, he turned back and looked behind him, which was the location outside the city. Although he had expected it, Lin Jiu still sighed when he saw that the entire city was surrounded by gray mist.
Even if you haven't personally come into contact with the gray fog, you can tell from the city wall that it is essentially the same thing as the gray fog gate they intercepted outside the Storm Sacrifice on Storm Island.
The entrance to the Storm Sacrifice is just a gate. There is so much demonic fog that makes Lin Jiu very afraid, not to mention the gray fog that almost covers the entire "world" outside this ghost place. Although he doesn't know what these demonic fogs are.
How to be blocked from the city, but it is certain that once this blocking effect no longer exists, the city will instantly turn into a dead place. Of course, the city is probably almost dead now.
Lin Jiu didn't need to worry about such risks for the time being. At least until the Temple of Creation collapsed completely, the gray mist would be blocked and would not affect them. But in the gray mist, Lin Jiu saw a building looming.
, I don’t know what kind of building it is, but looking at it gave Lin Jiu an ominous premonition.
"I hope the final destination is not that place." The more Lin Jiu thought this, the stronger his premonition became. In the city, there are many special buildings that are incompatible with the surrounding architectural styles. These buildings were used when they were carrying out operations.
It had been noticed before. Therefore, the goal of their team's separate operations was actually to explore the situation of these buildings.
Honglian's destination was a tall clock tower with a quarter hour inlaid on it. People in the entire city could see the time on the quarter hour as long as they were not indoors.
This bell tower can be seen by the whole city, so it is naturally very tall. Honglian killed some monsters along the way and came to the vicinity of the bell tower. So far, in the city, there have been no neutral units that can communicate with each other. These monsters are all humanoid.
They have different shapes, and it is very likely that they were mutated by the former residents here.
The mutated rat-men they encountered just after entering this place were obviously a variant of these humanoid monsters. Not only were they mutated from the residents, they also incorporated rat genes, growing sharp fangs and claws, transforming into
Be more aggressive.
I don’t know if this bell tower has no important function, so Honglian entered it without much difficulty. After entering the bell tower, Honglian noticed that the interior of the lobby was on a different level from the dilapidated and old atmosphere outside.
There are various ancient clocks placed in the lobby, which are richly decorated and full of unique atmosphere. There are white marble pillars at the four corners of the lobby, and the surrounding walls are all made of white stone bricks and gold.
Orchids bloom enchantingly among the white stones. Even if it is placed in a palace, the decoration of the bell tower is top-notch.
"It's so quiet... I didn't notice the existence of any living creatures..." Alienated creatures often carry a lot of negative aura. Although it has not reached the level of being absorbed by the original sin field, it can still be detected by Honglian.
But after Honglian entered the bell tower, he didn't notice any aura. In this different building, not to mention there was a Boss sitting in charge, but it shouldn't be so quiet. If something goes wrong, there must be a monster, and Honglian immediately became more vigilant.
stand up.
The moment Honglian stepped into the bell tower, at the top of the bell tower, in a room sealed by chains, a black and white armored figure trembled. But there were also several chains on the armor.
The helmet of this battle armor, a pair of shoulders to the arms, the abdomen to the thighs, and the ankles to the entire feet are covered with silver-white armor. On both sides of the shoulders, there is a blood-red gem inlaid,
Like a pair of eyes.
When it noticed the presence of Red Lotus, it trembled slightly, causing the chains on the armor to jingle. Kaka... the chains could not completely control the armor. Perhaps it was also because it was too long ago and the power in the chains was consumed a lot.
Now there is movement in the armor, and cracks appear on the chain.
"Huh?" When Honglian noticed something was wrong in the bell tower, he noticed that the surrounding walls had cracks inexplicably. Ever since he thought there must be something wrong with this place, he had been moving cautiously, and there was no trace of anything outside the ground.
Contact with other things. Then there is only one reason for this change. The moment he stepped here, something was triggered.
…
"..." Lin Jiu, who was about to jump off the city wall, suddenly stopped and looked in the direction of the clock tower. He suddenly felt that his connection with Honglian was cut off by some means. If Honglian's essence is the original sin field,
Logically speaking, as long as you have the ability to silence, you can restrain Honglian. But in fact, the connection between Honglian and Lin Jiu is not the original sin field, but the soul. Honglian's soul comes from a part of Lin Jiu.
Lin Jiu has never encountered such a situation since the birth of Honglian, a special clone. As expected, the Soul Mist Continent is a paradise for the soul, and it can also become a tomb. There are endless abilities for the soul, and there is no way to know what will happen.
What are the means to produce results?
Lin Jiu avoided many methods because he was immune to damage from souls whose soul strength was lower than his own. However, it was hard to guard against souls that did not have the ability to cause damage. Just like now, you can feel that Honglian is temporarily lifeless through the reincarnation disk.
It's dangerous, but he just can't feel Honglian's existence at all. From the source of his soul, he is isolated somewhere.
Honglian may not necessarily be the first to encounter trouble, but he is closely related to Lin Jiu, and Lin Jiu can feel it as soon as a situation arises.
