Chapter 44: Earth Spirits (4)
As soon as Luo Ning's words fell, a black cloud suddenly came, instantly pouring into the narrow street entrance. At the last moment, Luo Ning grabbed Garuk, and with a flash of a move, he forcibly retreated, appearing on the roof more than a hundred meters away from the tavern. Although the mercenaries who ran out of the tavern were aware of the danger, their movements were still a step slower, and they were engulfed by the black mist as soon as they left.
On the other side, Luo Ning and the others standing on the roof were condescending, looking at the strange and tragic situation in the city in disbelief.
Not only the streets and alleys where the tavern was located, but most of the city was engulfed in the black mist of unknown origin, and the civilians in the black mist fell on the spot one after another, bleeding like the assassin just now, and one by one fell to the ground.
"All, all!" Garuk swallowed, swallowing the fear that had welled up in his heart. Ronin, on the other hand, focused on the blurred light on the other side of the city.
"Let's go!!Heavenly Dao, help us break the back!" With that, Luo Ning turned around and jumped out of the city, followed by Garuk, not understanding why someone as strong as Luo Ning was so afraid!!
What he didn't know was that he couldn't figure out what was going on, and the emaciated figure standing at the gate of the city unleashing black magic. In the billowing black mist, the figure was like a lonely dancer, pacing slowly along the street full of dead bodies. A pitch-black lantern with a demon's head carved on the side was in his hand, and from time to time there was a faint blue light that flew into the lantern from the mouth and nose of the corpses, emitting a sharp and short strange scream.
As the figure walked, it suddenly stopped, and said to itself, "Escaped? It's really interesting! I didn't expect to see such a special young man just after entering the Lost Continent! I hope you can hold on a little longer, don't let me be too bored!"
As he spoke, the thin figure slammed the staff in his hand, and two black flashes burst out of the black mist, instantly catching up with the two on the roof.
"Hum ——" Just when Luo Ning and the two were about to be caught up, Tiandao stepped on the wide long sword and appeared in time, drew his sword and swung it, instantly opening up a gap between the black mist and Luo Ning. Two black flashes of light followed the burst, and Tiandao calmly blocked it with his sword, and slid backwards for more than ten meters before forcibly stopping.
"Huh? There is a third one, these strong men in Nuosen City, it's really not easy!!" The thin figure was arrogant, and he didn't take the Heavenly Dao in his eyes, and when the wand was clicked again, two black lights shot out, bypassing the obstruction of the Heavenly Dao and pointing directly at Luo Ning.
It was this contempt that finally made the thin figure pay the price. He was pacing forward when he felt a cold wind blow on his side. Before the thin figure could react, a huge and mysterious yin-yang fish pattern fell out of the air. And with that, there was a glittering translucent giant sword!!
"Boom!"
A loud bang from the collision of energies came from far away from Northam. Luo Ning only felt a throbbing pain in the sea of souls, and the next moment the sleeping figure of Tiandao appeared in his sea of souls.
"Why ?!! !...... so fast" Luo Ning was taken aback, and he didn't dare to delay, so he accelerated his speed again and ran towards other cities.
It was the best choice the Magister could make, but even that was a step too slow for Wendy. The seven silver stars were so fast that the Magister had only sung the first syllable, and the stars had already transformed into seven tenacious rays of light, entangled in the Magister's limbs, waist, abdomen, and throat.
"Ronin, what the hell is going on, why are you in such a hurry to escape?" Garuk asked as he ran.
Luo Ning ran forward for a long time, and found that there was no black mist chasing behind him, so he said confidently and boldly: "Things are very bad! What killed those mercenaries was a special kind of magic that I had never seen before!The exact power is unknown, but I can't think of a way to restrain it just yet!!"
Garukchi said, "Even you can't restrain ?!!! there is such an evil magic?
Luo Ning shook his head and said, "You come with me!!" With that, Luo Ning transformed into the form of a demon hunter and grabbed Galluk into the air, allowing him to see the scene from several kilometers away.
"This is !! it turns out that it's not just Northen City, it's even here!!"
Hundreds of beasts and birds died in pools of dark red blood, each beast was covered with a faint black!!, and the plants affected by the black mist also became dead and fragile, showing a dead dark gray.
"The other party's target is not just Norzen City! He is indiscriminately attacking magic! I can't take into account how many other cities have been baptized by this black mist, but I can guess the purpose of that guy. ”
"What purpose ?!!"
"Soul energy!!After the life is gone, the soul energy can still exist for a few days. But all the corpses in our field of vision, their souls have been taken away by people by savage means! The other party wants to collect a large amount of soul energy. At first, it may just be collected in the wild. But then he realized that it wasn't enough, and he set his sights on Northam!"
As he spoke, Ronin led Garuk to the corpses of a group of fallen brown bears, and after disarming the Demon Hunter form, he stepped forward alone and carefully stretched out his right hand.
"Ronin!!!Are you crazy?!!" Garuk hurriedly stepped forward to grab him.
Luo Ning smiled faintly and comforted Garuk: "It's okay, I just want to collect some residual magic elements and see if I can find a good way to deal with this magic!"
"But you,"
"This level of danger is not difficult for me! Don't worry, I cherish my life, so I won't risk my life to do stupid things easily!"
Garrouk half-convinced and let go of Ronin. The latter continued to bring his hand closer to the black mist. At the moment when his skin touched the mist, the long-lost system prompt suddenly sounded.
"Unknown energy infiltration detected, the danger factor: extremely high! Please stop the behavior of the host immediately and stay away from the energy body!"
"Huh, what's going on?" What Luo Ning didn't expect was that he only touched the black fog and was prompted by the system that there was danger. He retracted his palm, and found that the part that had just touched the black mist had become dry and gray, as if the life force in this palm had been drained by the black mist.
Luo Ning realized the danger, but he refused to give in. He secretly operated his energy, wanting to use the power of the cult's origin to resist this magic. It took a while for the vitality to pour into the shriveled palm, and it took a while to restore its original appearance, and finally let Luo Ning breathe a sigh of relief.
