Chapter 63: The Withered Road
The subtle atmosphere was felt by Smoot for the first time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The paladin's breathing grew heavy again.
In the end, he wisely ignored the crowd from the mysterious side, and turned around and walked towards the city shrouded in negative energy.
But the surprise is -
Clang!
As if it was the sound of metal knocking, Smoot, who was moving forward, actually crashed into the black negative energy that looked like smoke, and was also shocked back by a force.
He looked at the black negative energy in front of him in surprise.
Without waiting for the paladin to react, the black negative energy in front of him began to change.
If there is no corrupt power, along the ground, towards Smoot.
In fact, not only Smoot, but also the people on the mysterious side around him.
"Stand back!"
Smoot shouted as the 'Templar Power' on his body gushed out.
The white glow was incomparably conspicuous in the darkness.
But it has also become the target of public criticism.
Those negative energies that had gathered by themselves seemed to be alive at this moment, like jackals and beasts, rushing towards Smoot.
Although it was dissolved by the 'power of the Templar' in an instant, it was continuous and continuous.
What's more, more and more negative energy is added to it.
The black negative energy seemed to turn into black claws, grabbing towards Smoot with a fierce wind.
Even Smoot's face changed in the face of hundreds of black claws.
He scrambled back.
It wasn't until these claws were out of range that they stopped.
Smoot's face was very ugly.
Not only did he not enter the city of Ceylon, but it was only now that he suddenly discovered that they had been designed.
From the moment Simon's 'raid' fell into Barry's layout, everything was out of their grasp, and everything that followed was just the other side's non-stop 'playing. them.
Lay out the bait and let them keep taking risks.
In the absence of power, seek more reinforcements.
Until......
Qin Ran's arrival.
Barry's goal is to 'Die Bird'?
Such thoughts came to Smoot's mind, but soon the paladin shook his head.
"No, it's not him!"
"That's not his style!"
The unknown enemy made Smoot's face gloomy again.
He looked up at the city shrouded in negative energy in the distance, and his brain spun rapidly.
Abandon?
Sorry, he doesn't have that word in his dictionary.
ā¦ā¦
As you pass through the collection of black negative energy, the feeling of comfort and sleep spreads from the body to the mind.
If it weren't for O'Hara beside him, Qin Ran would definitely be unable to help moaning. Recite. Phonate.
O'Hara, however, is a different story.
Even though she was not injured in the real sense, her ugly face told Qin Ran that she was uncomfortable at the moment.
"How?"
Qin Ran asked.
Although he would not admit the other party's idea of treating him as someone's reincarnation, when the other party had been showing kindness, Qin Ran didn't mind helping the other party within the scope of his ability.
"It's fine!"
"It's just that the air here makes me feel uncomfortable - it's like entering a slaughterhouse, and the smell of blood makes me sick to my stomach!"
O'Hara immediately showed a smile in the face of Qin Ran's concern.
2567 has already started to accept me!
I have to do it!
O'Hara clenched his fist quietly.
Qin Ran, who had already turned around to look around, did not see this scene.
Otherwise, you will regret your troubles.
Qin Ran looked at the straight road in front of him, and then, his eyes looked at the dense woods on both sides.
His brow furrowed involuntarily.
June is supposed to be a summer season with lush vegetation.
But the city of Ceylon, shrouded in negative energy, is cold and dim.
And the trees that should be green have long since withered and yellowed.
Some of the trees simply withered altogether.
Death!
"Under the invasion of negative energy, even plants can't survive?"
Qin Ran, who frowned, muttered to himself.
The invasion of negative energy is a very terrible phenomenon.
At first, maybe nothing, just uncomfortable.
But over time, it was fatal.
This is true for people and plants.
Looking at these trees in front of him, Qin Ran was already able to guess that there were no normal people in the entire Ceylon City who could live.
You must know that in the face of the invasion of negative energy, plants must have far more resistance than humans.
Even, some plants can resist some slight negative energy invasion.
Call!
Qin Ran, who had come to this conclusion, took a deep breath.
Although the news he had received had already told him that there were no living people in Ceylon, when he saw it with his own eyes, it was a different feeling.
The wind is still blowing.
Wrapped in a strong breath of negative energy, a layer of sand rolled up from the dry ground, turning into a tiny tornado, wandering and turning on the road.
Lonely and lifeless.
All that's left is the murmur of the unjust soul.
There was no need to enter the field of vision of [Tracking], Qin Ran clearly felt the existence of those souls.
And, feel the changes in these souls: constantly absorbing the breath of negative energy, so that they have changed from ordinary half-wandering souls to only evil spirits that are only abhorrents.
Qin Ran was already completely predictable.
It would only take a few days for more evil spirits to appear where he stood.
That's far more than he'd wiped out before.
But Qin Ran didn't make a move in advance.
Because, it's completely unnecessary.
In such an environment, although the evil spirit has become terrifying, no amount of evil spirit can threaten him.
After all, such a general environment is also his 'home field'!
So, some things become a breeze.
For example: find a hidden 'Fallen'.
With the blessing of [Flame Sulfur], a ball of flame judged to be a strong level instantly appeared on Qin Ran's left hand.
Woo!
Qin Ran shook his hand.
The fireball flew towards the sign on the side of the highway with a scorching wind.
It was a sign made entirely of metal.
The main pole with the thickness of the arm, and the brand with two palms wide and one meter long.
It was evident that the surface of the sign had been painted with black paint, and the white paint had the words 'Welcome to the city of Ceylon'.
Although at this moment, under the attack of negative energy, this sign has become mottled, and half of the words are missing.
But it's still generally clear.
Soon, however, the mottled sign melted in the flames.
The black figure quickly came out of it, like light and shadow, flashing by.
But Qin Ran is faster!
Or to be precise, the prophet of the unknown!
Qin Ran stood in front of the black shadow and raised it with one leg.
Sou!
Suddenly, a semicircular aura pierced the darkness in front of him. (To be continued.) )
