It was not far from the entrance of the space to the ancient city, and soon, the magnificent granite city wall was close in front of you.The collapse of different spaces is not uniform in all directions, on the other side of the city, the collapse has spread to nearly one-third of the city, but the collapse process at the entrance of the space is obviously much slower, and now this section of the city wall is still very intact, and even some areas outside the city are still in a stable state, I have to say that this state has saved Hao Ren and his party a lot of trouble, so that they will not walk between the dangerous and fragmented collapse cracks.“…… It does have the air of that era," Vivien looked up at the towering walls, "but it's hard to tell which mythical city-state it belongs to from the stylistic point of view, and I don't remember it at all." ”Lily glanced at Vivien, "Aren't you a living fossil from the mythical era?"
How is there anything you don't know?
”"There are so many cities that were short-lived and then quietly dying in the mythological era that even I can't know them all," Vivien shook her head, "At that time, human beings were still at a very low level of productivity, and with all kinds of mythical monsters and beasts rampant, the living environment was extremely treacherous.At that time, almost all of the establishment of such magnificent cities depended on the protection and guidance of some anomaly, that is, the ancient 'gods', although those 'ancient gods' were usually just to make themselves comfortable and practiced tyrannical rule, but it must be admitted that without them there would be no such magnificent cities.It's just that the ancient city built in this way has its own huge shortcomings......"
Yitzax took over the latter words: "Once the 'god' that the city worships dies, the city will be finished. ”Vivien nodded: "In addition, the battle between the aliens will also cause this kind of city-state to disappear overnight, so even I don't know how many ancient cities like this have disappeared into the long river of history, especially in the barbarian era when mythological wars were in full swing." ”"Ahem, let's talk about history class while walking after entering the city," Hao Ren interrupted Vivien's science popularization with two light coughs, "This space is collapsing, and we don't have much time." ”"Where are the gates?"
Vivien looked at Heatheren, "Where did you get in at that time?"
”The little bat spirit pointed to a gap in the wall: "From that gap."
As for the city gate, I don't know where it is, because the situation inside is strange, and my two men have just entered and exited not long after. ”Hao Ren nodded, put away the blasting device he had just taken out, and led the team to the gap in the city wall.“…… Strange, it looks like it was broken from the inside," Itzhax has a lot of combat experience, so he can judge the situation of the gap in an instant from the state of the collapse of the wall around the gap and the direction of the rubble falling, "You see these positions, they are all collapsing from the inside out. ”Hao Ren frowned: "Wasn't it attacked by a foreign enemy?"
”"I'm afraid there's something 'stuff' in the city," Vivien said in a deep voice, "This kind of thing was not uncommon in mythological times, and the cities of Garradis and Gudaro were destroyed by the onslaught from the inside out because of the summoning of angry spirits during the sacrifice.Let's be careful when we go inside, if it's really an angry spirit or something, then maybe some of it still has some left in the city. ”Everyone checked their own talisman spells and equipment, and even Roll licked their claws seriously, and then under the leadership of Hao Ren and Vivian, everyone carefully stepped over the gap in the city wall.The moment he stepped through the gap in the city wall, Hao Ren noticed that the surrounding environment darkened slightly, and then a faint red light curtain appeared as if out of thin air, coating the surrounding scenery with a thin layer of blood.He couldn't help but look up, but saw that the sky had not changed much, the chaotic boundary of the alien space was still tumbling and surging, countless huge whirlpools like quicksand swirled in the chaos and gradually devoured this space, and there was no light source in the whirlpool and clouds, and the pale red light curtain around it was like a passive light, which appeared directly in the air."
This is the red light curtain that your two men are talking about?"
He turned to look at Heatherian.The little bat spirit nodded a little nervously: "That's it, under the red light curtain, people will lose their physical strength unconsciously, and they may gradually lose their minds, which is almost fatal to humans, but the blood clan can detect something wrong before the injury threatens life." ”Lily exploded the hairs on her ears and tail the moment the red light curtain appeared, and the beast's powerful instincts already made her feel that there was danger in this red light: "Let's not go any deeper, let's find out what is going on with this red light here."
Landlord, do you think there is any device that can stop it?
”Hao Ren glanced at his feet and found that there was no shadow under everyone's feet, even the surrounding buildings and collapsed stone piles, he used his left hand to block his right arm to do a test, and found that it could not produce shadows either: "This light is strange, it can either pass through all kinds of obstacles, or it is everywhere, like the self-luminescence of the air." ”"If we can pass through all obstacles, then we won't be able to see it," the data terminal suddenly said, "because then it won't be reflected or absorbed by any surface, and even when it enters the eye, it will pass through without being captured by the visual organs." ”Lily blinked, "So it's everywhere?"
What the hell is this?
”A thought flashed through Hao Ren's heart, but before he could speak, he heard Vivian's voice coming from the front, and his tone was low and ethereal: "It's moonlight." ”"Moonlight?"
Lily's ears suddenly stood up, "Bat, can you stop talking in such a godly tone, how do I feel hairy ......"
Vivien turned around, she had released her vampire power, her eyes were as bright red as blood, and a faint red mist shrouded her, as if it merged with the red light curtain around her: "It's the light of the red moon - the city is shrouded in the red moon, or rather, once illuminated by the red moon." ”Several people were shocked for a moment, and Hao Ren was the first to react: "Red Moon?
The kind of red moon you summoned?
”"There has only been one 'Red Moon' with supernatural powers on this planet, and that is my power," Vivien nodded, "This layer of light has been extremely weakened and mutated, but I still noticed some of my own aura just now......
This is the light of the red moon. ”Lily's already fluffy tail instantly seemed to grow again: "Don't scare people, bat!"
There is no moon in this sky!
And you weren't here before, how can there be moonshine here!
”"I can't explain it, but there's moonlight left here," Vivien said, shaking her head, "I've never seen the moonlight still left after the red moon was gone, but my red moon itself is beyond my comprehension, even beyond my own......
So just accept that fact. ”Under the red moon, the moonlight is everywhere - Hao Ren silently recited this famous sentence in his heart, which everyone knows among aliens and witchers, and then raised his head: "So this city must have been shrouded in the red moon - Vivian, don't you have a little impression of this?"
”Vivien's attitude was affirmative: "Not at all. ”Hao Ren: "......
Well, it seems like it's your memory problem again......"
"Then it's time to make a decision," Izax said in a gruff voice, "It's definitely not a good idea to act under the red moonlight, we either get out of it first, or we'll have to find a way to block it if we want to move on—my demonic rune shield can't stop it." ”"This moonlight has weakened a lot, it should be that the years have caused the energy to slowly escape," Vivien looked at Hao Ren, "I can continue to act in the moonlight, and you and the others should be able to hold on for anywhere from a few hours to a day if you open your shield." ”Hao Ren thought about it, and finally sighed: "Alas......
It's okay, I have a stronger shield to keep everyone moving in the moonlight. ”As he spoke, he calmed down under the curious gaze of everyone, and with a tragic expression, he began to communicate with his gods and perform magic spells.A moment later, the group walked into the depths of the city with the words "Old Lady Covers You" and "Old Lady Covers You by the Way".Vivian also comforted her all the way: "Hao Ren, don't worry too much about this, skills and other things just have to work, how many skills in the mythological era are domineering and the effects are cool and gorgeous, aren't they all dead in the end, the big move dies quickly, and practicality is the king......
"Hao Ren: "Gorgeous or not, let's not talk about it, have you ever heard of anyone's skills with barrage?"
”Vivian: "......" the audience is really heartless and happy, she was very curious about the sudden extra layer of "light shell" around her all the way, and from time to time she used her hand to poke the words "old lady covers you by the way" floating in front of her, just like every qualified cat, she played with herself very hilarious.Seeing the heartless appearance of rolling, Hao Ren couldn't help but sigh again: "Alas......"
Hethanna tried her best to ignore the barrage words floating in front of her, to be honest, she would not be willing to go out to explore with such a stupid thing if there was a way, but the situation is stronger than people, this layer of shield can really resist the negative forces in the ancient city one hundred percent, and she can only accept the reality.Now she was most glad that her two men were waiting outside, and the news of this shield would not be spread.The little bat spirit walked forward with these jumbled thoughts in his mind, while carefully guarding the ancient, lifeless buildings around him.There is an air of desolation and silence in the ancient city made of huge stones, as unsettling as every relic from the mythological era, and from the other side of the city, there is a constant faint sound of buildings cracking and space collapsing, coupled with the huge swirling quicksand whirlpools in the sky, everything here is very depressing, even Heatherian, who has been afraid of heaven and earth since she was a child, still feels like her heart is constantly hairing when she walks here.She always felt as if something was lurking in the city, and it was staring at her.Wherever everyone walked, the streets were silent, and the air currents swept the sand and dust between the ruins, leaving the whole street covered in a hazy layer of dust.In the dust mist, a large, illegible shadow slowly emerged, but then flickered.The sand still rolls in, leaving no trace.
