78 River of Death

With the sound of wooden wheels rubbing against the road, a strangely shaped "car" drove up from the west side of the street. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The appearance of this car is obviously different from the vehicle under the normal tech tree:

Five pairs of wooden wheels sit side by side under the body, creaking non-stop. The thing mounted on a carved wooden chassis was more of a small steeple wooden house than a body. A dragon head is carved in the "front of the car", and an ambiguous yellow light shines from under the pink curtains, swaggering through the snow-capped streets.

"I'll go, what's this?" Lin Chi muttered to himself.

"Haven't you seen an RV?" A young man passing by casually replied.

"Sure enough, it's an 'RV', which is much stronger than the RV in my hometown." Lin Chi smiled.

-- The way in which the inhabitants of the city speak is no different from that of modern people. Although it may be designed for gameplay reasons, after all, if these NPCs use classical Chinese, few players should be able to understand them. But-

Lin Chi knew that for the game "War Paradise", it could not be considered with the same set of ideas as ordinary games.

Judging from the architectural style of the city, he could already tell that this was not actually a thoroughly ancient map, that is......

Lin Chi stepped through the snow on the sidewalk, walked over to the middle-aged man in ragged clothes sitting by the wall, bent down and squatted in front of the homeless man with snow on his shoulders, and smiled kindly:

"Hello, what time is it today?"

"Get out of the way." The man replied rudely.

"Oh......"

Seeing that NPC was very uncooperative, Lin Chi turned sideways to block the sight of the pedestrians behind him, and suddenly pulled out the tiger claw hunting knife, pressed it against the homeless man's waist, and said with a smile: "Can you answer this way?" ”

"December 5th." The homeless man said seriously.

Seeing the other party's astonishing speed of changing faces, Lin Chi couldn't help laughing, put away his knife and patted the other party's shoulder, and asked, "I want to know what era it is?" ”

Hearing this, the homeless man's dirty face suddenly appeared with an expression of "caring for the mentally handicapped", and he whispered: "307 years in the Gregorian calendar. ”

I learned that the calendar of this world is not the same as the real world. Lin Chi didn't continue to ask, just stood up and walked to the east side of the street, observing the surrounding situation along the way.

Since the "Crazy Fugitive" skill that lowers the wanted index has also been brought over, it means that this city, like the City of Chaos, should also have guards.

As expected, Lin Chi quickly noticed that there were a few guys who were obviously different from passers-by, walking around the street non-stop, looking like they were patrolling.

The fellows were wrapped in black coats and wore hats, also black, with silk hanging from the edges of the hats to cover their faces. Although the appearance looks exactly the same as that of a human, the height of nearly two and a half meters, as well as the slightly stiff movements, still reveal the identity of these men in black.

"Is it a puppet?"

Seeing this scene, Lin Chi quickly realized that the guards patrolling the city this time were not some goddamn members of the security company, but a mechanical puppet that had been created!

Obviously, the combat effectiveness of these guys is definitely much stronger than ordinary people. With his current equipment and attributes, once he is chased by these guys, it is basically difficult to successfully escape.

――It seems that this time, we can't just go through the streets like we did in the city of chaos......

Thinking of this, Lin Chi also continued to walk forward quickly, planning to find a bookstore to go in and read the history books, and find out what the situation was in the world line where the city was located.

Before he could find the bookstore, he noticed that the ground beneath his feet began to tremble slightly.

Lin Chi, who was already about to walk to the river, looked up at the bronze guardrail next to the riverbank, and the river in front of the guardrail, which was at least thirty meters wide.

He could feel that the abnormal vibration of the road surface should be related to the river.

The murky water reflected an eerie glow in the moonlight, and the current seemed to be spinning, creating several small whirlpools in the middle of the river.

Even though it was winter, the river was not frozen, let alone icy, not even a single block of ice.

"What's the situation?" Lin Chi frowned.

Obviously, this river in the city is not quite the same as a normal river. It was as if there was a huge monster, or something, hidden beneath the murky waters, and it was trembling non-stop......

Realizing that the situation was wrong, Lin Chi looked along the river bank to both sides and found that there was no bridge leading to the other side of the river, and the architectural style on the other side was not quite the same as the river bank.

If the architectural style here is predominantly Chinese, then on the other side of the river is thoroughly Western, and it is similar to the style of ancient Greece:

The large buildings on the other side of the river are all supported by thick stone columns, and the walls are carved with paintings that look like statues of the gods of Olympus, and even from a distance of hundreds of meters, the sculptures can be seen to be amazingly detailed.

The light of the brazier on the side of the street lit up the sky on the other side. From this distance, Lin Chi couldn't see clearly what the passers-by on the other side of the river looked like, but he could also see that many of the guys over there seemed to be blonde hair, not like this side of the riverbank, all of them had black hair and black eyes.

Seeing this situation, Lin Chi already had a rough idea of the situation in the "Organ City" in his heart:

If your reasoning is correct, the city should be ruled by two separate races, across the river and most likely hostile to each other. Because-

Seeing the dozens of black-robed puppet guards standing on the bank of the river, Lin Chi didn't need to ask much at all, he knew that they were on the other side of the river to be wary of the "alien race".

On the other side of the river, there are also many humanoid objects that are extremely tall and look like stone carvings......

"This place is really weird." Lin Chi muttered in a low voice.

-- The situation in this city seems to be more complicated than I had imagined. The priority now is to figure out the "backstory" of this map before the battle begins.

Thinking of this, Lin Chi was about to turn around and leave the riverbank, but saw three black dolls, escorting a blonde man in a white robe, striding to the riverbank.

With the whispers of passers-by, a puppet stretched out its slender arm, grabbed the blonde man's collar with one hand, and lifted the bruised man up.

Then, from under the puppet's hat, a male voice came out with a round tone and full of strength:

"We've caught the spy you sent, damn European!"

"I rely on ......"

Hearing this, Lin Chi almost laughed out loud, seeing that the atmosphere was not right, he finally held back the smile back into his stomach, and continued to stand beside him, watching the incident with passers-by:

Under the gaze of everyone, the doll lifted the blond man's body and placed it on the outside of the guardrail. The white man struggled desperately, kicking and kicking his feet, but he couldn't make even the slightest tremor in his slender arms!

"Your spies will be put to death before your eyes!"

After the puppet finished speaking, he suddenly let go of his hand, and the blonde man screamed and fell into the rushing river below, and then-

"Click!"

There was a terrifying sound in the river, like a giant beast clenching its teeth of steel, and the blonde man's body suddenly disappeared the moment he fell into the water, replaced by a blood mist on the water.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Although the man disappeared in less than a second, Lin Chi was keenly aware of what was hidden beneath the river:

A giant "windmill" with a diameter of 20 meters is constantly spinning wildly below the river, stirring the water to create a whirlpool, and the fan blades of the machine are made up of countless fine blades!

"No wonder there are no boat......s here," Lin Chi sighed.

At this time, he finally understood the abnormal shaking on the banks of the river, and how the whirlpools in the river had appeared.

There is no doubt that there is more than one "giant crusher" installed in the river, and under the deterrence of this terrifying machine, the river has also become a complete "river of death"!

No wonder the spy was so flustered, it seems that in this organ city, the way to execute death row prisoners is to throw people into the river......

"It's an amazing design." Lin Chi sighed.

He turned his head and looked at the shop sign across the street by the help of the oil lamp hanging from the wooden pole on the side of the road.

Then, Lin Chi finally found what he needed:

Across the street on my left, there is a nondescript brown single-storey wooden house, and next to the wooden house hangs a sign with the name of the shop engraved in a book:

Cangjie Antique Bookstore.
