"Are you sure it's not an illusion?" Aipal carefully checked the surrounding environment, and then said softly, "There doesn't seem to be anything special here."
"Take a closer look. You might be able to find something." Jia Zhengjin replied affirmatively, "I did feel something just now. It can't be wrong."
"Okay, let's check around here." Aipal turned to the old man, "What should we do about this person?"
Seeing two people of unknown origin, not knowing whether they were humans or ghosts, looking at him, the old man suddenly felt horrified. Although gravekeepers are generally very courageous, undead and various undead creatures really exist in this world. If they really encounter them,
Then there will be no burial place!
Seeing the old man's scared look, Jia Zhengjin waved his hand: "Don't worry about him, business is important. You go over there, I'll look over here, and find out the truth of the matter as soon as possible."
"Okay!" Aipal did not hesitate, quickly turned around and left, checking the cemetery in the night.
"Don't be afraid. We from the mercenary union came here specifically for the mission issued by Viscount Bach. We found strange movements here, so we rushed here." Jia Zhengjin took out the mercenary badge and showed it, "This is
It has nothing to do with you, and no one will hurt you. Just go ahead and do what you have to do, and don’t affect us."
"Yes, yes..." The old man was a civilian. Of course he knew that mercenaries were not easy to mess with. He nodded repeatedly, "Then I will go back to the house first?"
"Go!" Jia Zhengjin nodded and watched him leave, then walked towards the opposite position of Aipal.
The two of them, one on the left and the other on the right, kept wandering in the cemetery under the cold moonlight.
Anyone who is timid would not dare to approach this in the early morning.
However, Jia Zhengjin himself is an atheist, so even if he travels to this different world with gods and various undead creatures, he is not that afraid. And with his strong strength now, there is no need to worry.
As for Aipal, he is a majestic god with a combat power of hundreds of thousands, and there is no reason to be afraid.
The two inspected it very carefully and did not miss any place.
However, Jia Zhengjin was almost outside the cemetery and still didn't find anything strange.
Just when he was wondering if he had really hallucinated and saw something that was not real, Aipal's voice came from the other side: "This way!"
Her voice reached Jia Zhengjin's ears very clearly, as if it had no effect despite the distance.
But again, how far is the distance on the Stairway to Heaven? We can still communicate smoothly.
Aipal suddenly called him over, proving that there must be someone there. Jia Zhengjin turned around and moved quickly, arriving directly at her side: "What's going on?"
Aipal also walked out of the cemetery and squatted down a few meters away from the cemetery fence. Hearing Jia Zhengjin's voice, he pointed to a big tree in front of him without looking back and said, "This tree seems to have no life!"
"No vitality?" Jia Zhengjin raised his head in confusion, looked at the lush green leaves and said, "Isn't this good?"
"But it is indeed lifeless!" Aipal said, "Although it looks very lush on the outside, I can't feel its vitality. Speaking of which, it is somewhat similar to the child just now..."
"You mean there is no soul?" Jia Zhengjin frowned, "But trees don't have souls in the first place, right?"
"But it also belongs to living bodies. All living bodies have their own vitality, which is necessary for existence. Just like people have souls, this belongs to the same principle."
"In other words, this tree is related to what we want to check?" Jia Zhengjin whispered, "Then do you feel the power?"
"No!" Aipal shook his head, "It's strange. Apart from the same state, there are no remaining traces."
"Then let me chop it down and see if there's anything strange about it?" Jia Zhengjin stepped forward and took out the logging ax from his virtual backpack, eager to try it.
"Wait!" Aipal hurriedly stopped, "We need to find the truth, don't destroy it in a hurry. If we destroy this tree, the only clue will be lost!"
"Then what should we do?" Jia Zhengjin asked depressedly, "We can't just stay here in a daze, right?"
"There must be something strange about this tree. Let's investigate it carefully." Aipal stretched out his hand to touch the rough trunk and looked around it.
Jia Zhengjin also followed her around under the tree several times, but found nothing.
The two of them looked over and over, but couldn't see any useful information.
Probably because he was a little bored, Jia Zhengjin jumped directly onto the tree and kept moving to the top on the thick branches.
"What are you doing?" Aipal was very confused when he saw him suddenly climbing up the tree.
"There is a saying that says: stand high and look far away. Haven't you heard? Maybe you can see a different scenery when you stand in the trees."
"It makes sense!" Aipal nodded, and then he also flashed and appeared on the top of the big tree with Jia Zhengjin.
The two people stood on the top thick branch and turned their heads to look carefully.
"Huh? Look!" The view from the top is really good, and there are a lot of things you can see.
With his night vision, Jia Zhengjin clearly discovered that the top of the tree protected by dense leaves had a section of the main trunk broken.
And the fault is actually hollow!
Although it was quite hidden surrounded by dense leaves, he still discovered this tree hole.
Aipal also saw the tree hole and showed doubts in his eyes: "Is this tree hollow? And this tree hole is also very strange. It doesn't look very natural."
"Can you detect what's inside the tree hole?" Jia Zhengjin asked.
Aipal shook his head.
"I'll give it a try." Out of curiosity, Jia Zhengjin took out a small stone made of materials from his virtual backpack, pointed it at the tree hole and threw it in. Then he and Aipal stared at the tree hole, pricking up their ears and listening carefully.
The strange thing is that after the stone entered the tree hole, it seemed as if it had sunk into the sea without causing any waves.
In fact, after a while, I didn't hear the sound of stones falling to the ground, which was even weirder!
No matter how deep the tree hole is, there will always be a time when it hits the bottom. How could there be no echo even if a small stone is thrown into it?
Now not only Jia Zhengjin was curious, but Aipal also quickly approached the tree hole and looked inside suspiciously.
"What can you see?" Jia Zhengjin looked into the dark tree hole and asked in a low voice.
"Can't see anything!"
"I can't see anything either."
"This is a bit weird!" Aipal said, "Logically speaking, no matter how dark the environment is, I can clearly see the things inside. But now the tree hole is empty, so I can't see what's inside.
Situation. I suspect that this may be something similar to a magic door."
"Magic Gate?"
"Anything that enters it can be teleported to other places, distorting the existence of space. It is usually magic, similar to your teleportation magic circle."
"Then why don't you go in and take a look?" Jia Zhengjin said quickly, "You are a god. It's hard to live without danger."
"You're coming too!" Aipal reached out directly, grabbed Jia Zhengjin's collar, and then led him to jump into the tree hole. (To be continued)
