What appeared in front of Lin Zhan was not the exquisite camp before, but a whole piece of ruined bricks and tiles. The whole camp looked crumbling. The soldiers patrolling back and forth were like walking corpses, walking around very mechanically, with more or less symptoms appearing on their bodies.
There were some wounds, but what surprised him even more was that those wounds were filled with night energy. It was this that allowed them to walk freely.
"Hello!"
Liuli shouted again, which brought Lin Zhan back to his senses. When he looked at the scene in front of him again, he found that everything had returned to normal, and the exquisite camp reappeared in front of him.
This was a bit strange. Lin Zhan hurriedly walked out of the dilapidated courtyard, glanced at the others, waved his hands to tell them not to worry, and walked some distance away from the patrolling soldiers before he visibly relaxed.
tone.
Seeing Lin Zhan's really weird behavior, others naturally became suspicious and raised their heads to look at him. Among them, Priest Dusk continued, "What's wrong? You've been out of your mind since just now. Did you find something?"
Although he didn't speak, it could be seen from his eyes that Liuli had similar doubts. After a short pause, Lin Zhan said everything he had just seen.
After hearing this, the two people reacted with surprise. They looked around in surprise, with disbelief in their eyes.
"If this is really the case, the situation is beyond my expectation."
Priest Dusk quickly calmed down and nodded slowly.
For a long time, the understanding of night energy has been very simple. It is nothing more than that it is a kind of destructive energy. But judging from the flash of the scene just now, the situation here seems to be particularly wrong.
Then Liuli took out a crystal ball, and a ray of light instantly covered the entire camp, but nothing happened and everything remained as usual.
Just like this, Lin Zhan looked around, not quite sure what was going on, and waited patiently.
After about a few seconds, Liuli put away the crystal ball, sighed slightly and said: "I tried to look, but I didn't find any suspected phantoms. This means that everything we saw is real.
"
This creates a contradiction. If all this is true, how can we explain what Lin Zhan saw?
It can be said that he made an astonishing discovery and further increased the level of suspicion here. Lin Zhan walked forward. Looking at the various scenes that appeared in front of him, doubts emerged deep in his heart.
"Time waits for no one, so let's keep moving forward. Maybe we will find something else ahead that can explain what we saw."
After a moment of silence, Priest Dusk stood up first and looked deeper into the hunting ground.
Originally, if they continued to move forward, Lin Zhan and others had to inform the commander, but from the flash of the scene just now, it was enough to see that there was something wrong with the soldiers here. If they were notified rashly, it would easily be out of control.
things.
To be on the safe side, Lin Zhan did not do that.
We quickly moved on, and not long after leaving the camp, it was shrouded in thick fog again, making it impossible to see what was behind it with the naked eye.
Thinking of possible situations in advance, the Dusk Priest took out a map. After showing it, he said: "Look, according to the guidance on the map, there is still the last line of defense right ahead, and you can see the hunting ground right next to it."
It’s the main entrance, and you don’t know what will happen when you get there, so I suggest everyone be more cautious.”
This map is very general. It only roughly records the things that may appear in the royal hunting ground. This is also an unavoidable situation. This place is completely closed. Several previous explorers have also proved this. It is difficult to get some detailed information.
It gets harder.
It is already very difficult to get such a blurry map.
"I know. So, Lin Zhan, don't forget what I told you before."
Liuli nodded, and then said to Lin Zhan solemnly.
This is why the token still remains on Lin Zhan's body.
Following the route guided by the map, Lin Zhan and others walked in the general direction of the next line of defense. During this period, they were not very clear about the dangers around them. They could only take out the Xuanyuan Sword and be ready to deal with the lurking beasts at any time.
The beasts that have been deeply eroded by the energy of night are very terrifying, not to mention that this is a hunting ground for the royal family. Who knows how many beasts are hidden there.
But the problem is that after walking for a long time, I didn't encounter a single wild beast, and there wasn't even a sound. It seemed like there were no more living people here.
"Could it be that those wild beasts are all locked up in the hunting ground? If that's the case, Lu Pian has done a lot of good things."
Liuli muttered to herself.
The distance between the two lines of defense is not far. Even at this very slow speed, it only takes half an hour. However, we have been walking for nearly an hour, but no one has come out.
As the surrounding situation became more and more strange, Lin Zhan decided to stop temporarily and observe his surroundings.
"As for the second line of defense just now, someone came out before we even saw the camp. Logically speaking, it should be similar here."
Lin Zhan recalled what happened before and stared at the surroundings.
Others expressed similar thoughts.
Standing here, I couldn't think of anything. Lin Zhan and others could only move on.
Fortunately, before walking too far, we could vaguely see the outline of the building through the thick fog. The overall appearance was very simple, and it seemed to be the third and final line of defense.
In view of his previous experience, Lin Zhan slowed down and prepared the token. As long as someone rushed out, he would be able to take out the token as soon as possible.
But they had almost reached the camp gate, but still no one came out. What was even more strange was that there was no one in the huge camp.
Not only that, looking inside through the camp gate, I found that the entire camp was empty, without any soldiers patrolling back and forth, and it seemed extremely quiet.
"Something is wrong, something is definitely wrong, please proceed with caution."
Lin Zhan whispered to the others while lowering his body and cautiously approaching the camp.
The night density here has not changed much, and as expected, Lin Zhan and others can easily see some situations directly opposite.
"It's strange, such an empty camp, where have all the soldiers gone?"
They all reached the camp gate, but still no one came out. Liuli couldn't help but wonder.
After confirming that there was no obvious danger in the camp, Lin Zhan walked in front and tentatively walked inside while holding the Xuanyuan Sword tightly to kill any enemies that might attack.
