After watching the demonic energy that shrouded the entire town gradually dissipate, Chu Ling keenly discovered that the town as a whole had become darker. This was not an illusion. From the first time he entered, he felt that the surrounding scenery gave people a sense of darkness.
A dull feeling.
Now that I think about it, it seems that the town has been shrouded in demonic energy most of the time, so some changes may have begun to occur subtly.
The three of them walked into the town side by side, and Luo Xi asked, "Shall we go deeper this time?"
Logically speaking, as a senior and the captain of this team, she should be the one to make the decision, but I don’t know when it started to change. As long as Chu Ling is present, she will subconsciously consult Chu Ling.
Ling's opinion.
As if Chu Ling was the captain, Luo Xi felt a little uncomfortable or wrong at first, but now she has gradually gotten used to it and didn't feel anything was wrong.
While Chu Ling picked out a few larger pieces of ore and threw them into his backpack, he looked into the depths of the town, narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Let's go back to the last place to have a look."
"Go back? What if we encounter that horned devil again?" Xie Yuwen asked worriedly.
"Although that demon is troublesome, it's still not close to posing a decisive danger to us. I mainly have some things in mind that need to be verified." Chu Ling said and quickly rushed inside.
Xie Yuwen and Luo Xi looked at each other, thought about it and realized that this was the case, so they stopped worrying and followed Chu Ling as they ran towards the inside of the town.
The three of them quickly came back to the place where they met the horned devil before. They had no choice but to do it. The big hole where Chu Ling was kicked through was so conspicuous that it was difficult to find it.
However, after returning here, they did not see the horned demon. The surroundings were quiet. Because the news of the existence of demons in the town had spread, everyone was basically moving forward cautiously, like Chu
There are very few people like Ling who rush in as soon as they come.
"It seems that these demons are wandering around here randomly. I don't know where they have gone now." Luo Xi guessed after seeing this.
Chu Ling frowned, used Qinggong to jump up to the roof a few times, and looked around. Since this was just a small town, there were no very tall buildings. He stood on the roof and looked around.
You can only see the roofs or higher buildings, and you can't observe anything useful at all.
Then Chu Ling jumped off the building and ran to another street along the big hole she had made before. When she looked, she didn't find the figure of the goat-horned devil.
Seeing Chu Ling's thoughtful look, Luo Xi couldn't help but ask: "Chu Ling, what are you looking for?"
"It's nothing, maybe I thought wrong." Chu Ling shook her head and said.
After he returned to the camp, he thought carefully about why a demon appeared at the same time on two streets next to each other and in basically opposite positions. Was it too much of a coincidence to say it was a coincidence?
But if it wasn't a coincidence, then those two demons must have some purpose for appearing there, so he wanted to confirm it.
But now it seems that my guess was too natural, maybe it was just a random coincidence.
But no matter how he thought about it, Chu Ling felt that it was too coincidental. It might be due to his naturally cautious mentality. Chu Ling said to the two women behind him: "Let's go to the street before and take a closer look to see if there are any clues we missed."
.”
So the three of them walked back along the passage that Chu Ling had knocked out. Only halfway through, Xie Yuwen seemed to suddenly see something. She pointed to the ground and said, "Chu Ling! Look what that is?!"
"Huh?" Chu Ling looked at her finger after hearing this, and saw several dark red arcs on the corner of the broken ground.
Chu Ling hurriedly squatted down, knocked away the gravel and dust on the ground, then carefully identified it, and suddenly said in a condensed voice: "It's blood."
"Blood? Why is there blood here?" Luo Xi asked strangely after hearing this.
"It seems like something was painted with blood." Chu Ling reached out and touched the dark red arcs on the ground and said decisively, "Tear down the houses around here!"
"Ah?" Neither of the two women had reacted yet.
"There should be something painted on the ground. If my guess is correct, it should be a magic circle!" Chu Ling seemed to remember something as he said it, and suddenly realized, "Yes! Satan must have been sealed a long time ago.
The town may have been established after that, so the magic circle has been covered by houses!"
The fact that Satan was sealed in the town was information that the United States had already disclosed, so it was not surprising that Chu Ling knew about it.
"Even if you say so, if this place is demolished, I'm afraid the surrounding buildings will collapse." Luo Xi estimated that the magic circle below should be quite big. Calculated based on the area, the surrounding buildings should be under pressure.
Hold part of it.
"There's nothing we can do about it. Fortunately, the surrounding buildings are not high, so it shouldn't be difficult to demolish them." Chu Ling said as she jumped on the spot with a trace of silver light flashing on her feet.
of.
"Wait! Wait!" Xie Yuwen saw this and said hurriedly, "Don't you want to use your legs to remove this whole piece?"
When Chu Ling heard this, she turned her head strangely and said, "What? Isn't it possible? No one lives there."
"No, this is a big project after all, right? There's no need to consume yourself so much. If the demonic energy revives during this process, it will be too late." Xie Yuwen said.
Luo Xi also nodded in agreement and said: "Yes, we will report the discovery this time, and then call in more people next time, and bring some explosives, and it should be better to open all the magic circles at once."
Chu Ling pondered for a moment and said, "I'm mainly worried that something will happen when I come back next time, which will cause big trouble."
"Even if the demon comes back again, we can still solve it if we bring more people next time, right?"
Chu Ling felt that what Xie Yuwen said made sense, so she nodded and said, "Okay, let's wait until next time."
After saying that, he lowered his head and glanced at the exposed leg of the formation, and kicked the gravel next to it to roughly cover it.
Chu Ling had a vague feeling in his heart that the two demons were looking for this magic circle. If this magic circle was really related to that Satan, then I'm afraid it would really require professionals to do it, otherwise they would just use the magic circle.
When the formation was launched, it was just a wedding dress for those demons.
The three of them said that they did not intend to continue exploring, and were going to rush back to the camp to report the matter, so after walking out, they ran towards the outside of the town.
Not long after they left, two men in blood-red robes suddenly appeared on the roof of a house next to this street.
"How's it going? Are you here?" one of them asked.
The other person didn't speak. He was holding a strange skull cross in his hand. He closed his eyes as if sensing something. After a while, he opened his eyes and said: "Here, right here, very close.
"
"boom!"
Chu Ling, who had just run to the outskirts of the town, suddenly heard a loud noise behind him. He hurriedly looked back and saw thick smoke rising from behind. It looked like a huge explosion had occurred.
"That place seems to be the street we were on just now." At this time, Xie Yuwen beside her suddenly said.
Hearing this, Chu Ling felt uneasy for some reason, and he hurriedly said: "I'm going to see if anyone else has discovered the magic circle. If anyone is there, I'll stop by to help. You guys go out first.
Report this news to the camp, the sooner the better!"
After saying that, he ran back quickly, but at this moment, the three people's early warning bracelets sounded a slight alarm.
Luo Xi's expression changed, and she hurriedly shouted to Chu Ling: "Chu Ling! The demonic energy is about to revive, come back quickly!"
The uneasiness in Chu Ling's heart still lingered, and he couldn't let go without taking a look, so he ran towards the back and said: "You guys get out first, I have a way to leave."
"Too reckless!" Luo Xi cursed loudly.
"Chu Ling, I'll go with you!" Xie Yuwen said and started to chase forward.
"Don't come over! I can't take care of you then! Trust me, I have a way to leave. You go first!"
After saying these words, Chu Ling's figure jumped onto the roof and disappeared after several leaps.
Although she was very worried about Chu Ling, when Luo Xi turned her head and saw Xie Yuwen also showing a worried expression, she suppressed this worry in her heart and comforted: "Believe Chu Ling, since he said he was sure, then
He must be sure of it. As long as it is not a matter of life and death, he will basically not say anything big."
Xie Yuwen heard this and turned her head and smiled: "You know him very well?"
"Huh?" Luo Xi was startled, and then smiled lightly, "After all, we have been partners for so long, so we still know a little bit about each other."
Xie Yuwen didn't say anything more. Instead, she looked in the direction Chu Ling left again, with worried eyes and said, "That's why I'm worried about him."
