Chapter 102: Sacred Geometry

Lasso landed about a kilometer from the city walls.

It shook its wings and said carefully: "My lord, if you get closer, the automatic ballistas on the city wall will attack, I don't know if those little monsters have destroyed these weapons, so it's better to be careful." ”

Su Xing looked it up and down a few times, but he didn't expect this guy who looked a little stupid to have a bit of brains.

"Tell me, how do we get there, won't the ballista be triggered on foot?"

Rasso raised her wings and pointed to a small solid black dot on the distant wall, "There's a path to enter, but you'll need to answer the questions from the elders' elders, who are stationed there." As long as we can get back to the answer to the question, they will send us anywhere in town. ”

It hesitated, then said, "My lord, I don't think we'd better go into the city." The city must be crowded with hundreds of thousands of little monsters now, and even if you are a fire bearer, you will not be able to deal with so many monsters. ”

Su Xing raised his head slightly and looked at the fiery red wall in the distance. Before landing, he had a vague view of the city. The thick white mist, almost at the height of the city walls, buried the entire city in the white mist. Only a few of the taller buildings reveal European-style spires, like lighthouses in the sea.

"Didn't you say that the City of No Return was only a part of the city of Nagil Fa? Why didn't I see any other cities?

As Su Xing said, the two ends of the flaming red regular high wall that stretched for several kilometers disappeared into the vast white mist after a straight turn, and the entire city seemed to be swallowed by a giant beast composed of mist. This mist has no beginning and no end, and it was only after falling to the ground that Su Xing was shocked to realize that the white mist had begun to slowly spread out from both sides of the city wall.

Lasso looked a little excited, "Look, sir." This is a white mist of life formed from the water vapor evaporated by the flame pillar from below the abyss!"

Since the pillar of flame rose and supported the heavenly vault. The area centered around it is increasingly arid and barren, and few organisms are able to survive in this harsh desert environment. The seven Winged Tribes in the City of No Return have all volunteered to be stationed here since the Battle of the Abyss, serving as the first line of defense and beacon fire. The biggest trouble they had was access to water, and in the early days of the Pillars, all of which had to be brought in from elsewhere.

The Lasso had also brought water to the City of No Return, and the swamp in the Dead Forest was once a large lake, but it was the result of years of intense consumption that had finally become what it is now.

However, as the pillar of inflammation weakened, this situation was alleviated. This thick white mist was the water vapor produced by the Flame Pillar after it heated the water body from nowhere below the abyss. These fogs appear every few months, and are a good way to save the Winged People tribe from drought.

"Soon, soon the flame pillar will rise again!" Lasso trembled with excitement, and the golden feathers collided with each other, making a loud noise.

Su Xing didn't understand why it was so excited, so he asked.

"That kind of scene can only be understood by those who see it with their own eyes, but my lord, you will understand it after a while!"

It was only five minutes later, and Su Xing understood why it would say that.

With a rumbling sound that seemed to come from the depths of the earth, the ground beneath his feet began to shake slightly, as if an earthquake was about to strike. Lasso jumped to his feet and nervously cried out, "My lord, come up, let's look down from the sky!"

At first, it was just a dark red point of light, like a hazy light source in the fog, with a violent vibration, the point of light spread rapidly, like pouring red ink into clear water, the whole mist was dyed red at an astonishing speed, and a golden red flower bloomed. When the flower bloomed to its limit, there seemed to be a soft sound in the air, and a huge wave of white air rolled out from the edge of the flower, scattering and impacting like a galloping horse, instantly revealing the barren land covered by mist.

Then, the flowers really "bloom".

The endless stream of golden red flames pierced the dense fog like spears, and with a majestic whistling sound, it rose high, and rushed towards the sky with rings of fire. A heat wave followed, and in the capital of no return, less than a kilometer away from the Yan Stream, the dense fog was stirred and a dark red torrential rain fell.

The rain was filled with a faint sweet fragrance, but after smelling it for a long time, there was a disgusting sticky feeling that could not be described in words, as if it was not rain, but some unknown substance, for example, blood.

Su Xing covered his nose: "This is the white mist of life, why do I think something is completely wrong!"

Lasso flapped his wings indiscriminately, and his voice was full of fear: "It's good that we didn't go in, it's Yanzhu who is angry!"

It explained, "This red rain is actually a mixture of the blood and mist of those monsters killed by Yan Liu, I have lived for so long, and I have seen this kind of thing twice, and it only happens when something big happens!"

Su Xing asked a little angrily, "You mean, there are no little monsters in the city now?"

"If they're dead, they're all dead, and whoever faces the angry pillar of flames will have no choice but to die. Lasso was a little incoherent, "My lord, let's get out of here and wait for the pillar to calm down." ”

"How long will it take for it to regain its calm?"

"About a year or two. ”

Hearing this answer, Su Xing almost didn't get angry, for a year or two!

"Don't say it, get ready, let's go in now, do you know where it's safer in the city?" Su Xing raised his hand to stop Lasso's dissuasion, "My time is limited, I don't have so much time to wait for it for a year or two." ”

"Alright, alright, sir. ”

Lasso landed listlessly on the ground, and said, "The Council of the Seven Clans is definitely safe, there is no one to enter there at all, and maybe a few survivors can be found, and the highest watchtower in the city should not be attacked by the flames, because it is protected by the sacred geometry." ”

"So what are you waiting for, let's get started!"

Lasso took a deep breath and began to let out an extremely low chirp, sad, ancient, and desolate.

The air in front of them fluctuated, and a spirit creature composed entirely of various black geometric figures appeared.

"Hello, elder of the crows, we want to enter the city. ”

"Sacred geometry guides you and me, outsiders, and if you want to enter the City of No Return, you must answer me a question. The pitch-black crow spirit fluttered in front of Su Xing, "That's my problem." ”

A brightly colored cube appeared in front of Su Xing, "As long as you unlock this tenth-order Rubik's Cube, I will give you the right to pass unhindered." ”
