Chapter 6: The Ancient City of Xudu
Dangling
Wu Hao controlled the car and slowly drove onto the highway.
The speed of travel is not fast, many cars on the highway are stationary, and the road is not very smooth.
Occasionally, there are cases where you drive side by side and block the lanes completely.
As a last resort, he had no choice but to crash the car that was occupying the road away.
Anyway, because there are people inside, there is no way to destroy these cars.
As for whether the unlucky guy who was knocked away after the time stop will face the risk of losing control of the car, it is not for him to manage.
If something happens, you can only blame yourself for not having the quality, occupying the emergency lane and walking side by side!
The most hated thing on the highway is the unqualified driver who occupies the emergency lane!
I don't know what to rush about.
Seven or eight hours later
Wu Hao stumbled and arrived at a gas station.
It drove very slowly, no more than sixty along the way.
It's a holiday, and there are a bit more cars on the highway.
After looking at the road signs, there are still more than 200 kilometers away from Xudu.
There was not much gas, and he wanted to go into the gas station to see if he could look for some oil.
I tried the automatic fuel dispenser, and it seems that one of them is still running.
Looking for a staff member's fuel card in the gas station, Wu Hao not only filled his fuel tank completely, but also found several large empty barrels, which were filled with oil and stored in the trunk.
While searching the gas station, he picked up another strange thing.
It is also a glittering object with a dull luster.
- Lighters that don't ignite
- As a place where fireworks are strictly prohibited, this lighter feels like it was born at the wrong time. Ever since he was brought here by his owner, he has been locked in a cupboard and has not seen the light of day. This made it depressed and accumulated a lot of resentment. After fusing with an unknown orb, it mutates into a lighter that can never ignite. Perhaps, it will have some wonderful uses, which you need to explore carefully.
That's a lot of fun!
A lighter can still be full of resentment and mutate into a lighter that doesn't ignite!
So what's the use of it?
Wu Hao tried, obviously the lighter could shoot a flame, but the strange thing was that this flame really couldn't ignite anything.
It's also hot, and it's hot, but it just can't be ignited.
It's so much fun.
Can't catch fire?
Maybe something magical can be 'ignited'?
Wu Hao exuded his own brains.
Put away the lighter, Wu Hao continued to set off.
Two hours later, he arrived in the area where Xudu was located.
As soon as he stepped into the area where the capital was located, he felt the fatigue around him be swept away.
A strong sense of joy emerged from the bottom of my heart.
Visible to the naked eye, a gray mist, like magma, gushed out from the ground and covered the entire city.
After getting out of the car, Wu Hao made his way along the asphalt road on the outskirts of Xudu.
On both sides of the asphalt road, dense plants grow, these plants are strange, there are no leaves, only dry branches.
All of them are gray and black.
One by one, they are weird and craggy, and they are very terrifying.
It can be seen that some obviously mutated crows, with red eyes, are standing on tree branches, staring at Wu Hao silently.
This hellish place seems to be a bit eerie.
Wu Hao took a closer look at these crows, which should be a kind of ghost crows, and the mutated organ is the crow's eyes, which are the main materials of eye equipment in the "Grotesque" game.
With this eye gear crafted from the Raven's Eye, you can see certain invisible beings. For example, the invisible grotesque, or some disembodied ghosts.
Now these ghost eye mutant organs have not yet fully matured, so Wu Hao will ignore them for the time being.
After a few hundred more meters, through a small forest.
Wu Hao suddenly heard the sound of ping-pong digging.
Could there be anyone else?
This is clearly the sound of using tools!
He was startled at first, then overjoyed, and quickly drifted in the direction from which the voice came.
However, when approaching the location of the sound, Wu Hao stopped again.
He was somewhat indifferent.
It's silent.
Now that he is like this, in this form, he is no longer human, so what good is it to approach him rashly.
It's just a conflict between the two.
hesitated, and was a little overwhelmed for a while.
After hesitating for a moment, Wu Hao still couldn't hold back his curiosity and quietly floated over.
Ahead, there are no humans!
Several skeletons, wielding small shovels from nowhere, were digging into the ground.
There are also skeletons that are crawling out of the ground little by little, or picking up bones scattered on the ground, gesturing to place them on their bodies.
It's a skeleton monster!
Identification skills give information.
A monster mutated by an orb of attributes.
It's not grotesque, it's just an ordinary mutated monster.
It's a monster that doesn't exist in Grotesque, at least not he's seen it.
Sure enough, there are thousands of mutations, and they can't be completely based on the setting of "Grotesque". After all, there is still a big difference between the real world and the game world. ”
Instead of seeing a human being, he saw a skeleton monster, although Wu Hao was a little disappointed, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
In this world, he is still the loneliest individual.
There is no grotesque, and no human will communicate with him.
He will endure loneliness in the end, and will always be with loneliness, knowing the day when time will lift the ban after 499 years.
He didn't know if he was the guy who danced with loneliness and was eventually buried by loneliness, but now his main purpose was to find the place of extreme yin.
The closer you get to the ancient city of Xudu, the more people of all kinds are stopped.
And Wu Hao also discovered some characteristics of human beings who stopped here.
Not only was their bodies filled with the golden light that protected them, but the gray mist energy that erupted from the earth also drilled into them from the top of their heads.
Most of the drunken human faces have dark and obscure lines on their faces, which are slowly growing, and they seem to have a strange beauty.
What are these lines?
This made him involuntarily think of the indistinct mark in the middle of his flesh's forehead, the two seemed to be similar, but not identical.
Human time is suspended here, and it seems to be different from other areas.
The scope of the impact is also different.
In the city, many areas have been transformed by inexplicable forces, roads have been moved, houses have changed, and inexplicable rivers have penetrated from the ground.
Everything here is constantly changing.
Wu Hao saw with his own eyes a well that exuded a cold air, growing out of the soil little by little.
It is indeed growth, a little bit of elevation, breaking through the soil layer, and finally growing completely.
The time-stopping humans in the city of Xudu were able to move on their own because they might interfere with the transformation.
After the transformation is completed, return on your own.
Of course, during this movement, Wu Hao was also unable to attack these humans.
Their time was still suspended.
