Chapter 245: Flame City
Thundered!!!
The earth exploded piece by piece, spreading like a spider's web, and with just one breath, the crack spread to Ye Kong's feet, which also made his heart feel cold, almost like a cold hair.
"Not good!"
Ye Kong immediately made a decision, turned around and launched the Wind Sword, his figure disappeared in a flash, and appeared 20 yards away in the next second, but he didn't dare to delay for a moment, he slammed on the ground under his feet, and ran towards the forest.
Boom Boom Boom Boom !!
Behind Ye Kong, bursts of land exploded, mud spurted into the sky, and the scene was like a big blowout, the sound was terrifying, and it was brilliant and powerful!
"Roar, roar, roar!"
At the other end of the clearing, the Fire Lizard King was even more frightened, roaring while leading his men to run wildly, and at the same time, the Fire Lizard in the nearby forest also followed their king, running desperately one by one.
What's even more terrifying is that their actions have caused a chain reaction, just like the bombing camp in the ancient military, but seeing other monsters in the forest, one by one recuperating, they were disturbed by their emotions, and in a state of unknown circumstances, they also triggered the 'panic mode', and stepped in the footsteps of the lizards one by one!
For a while, the whole forest seemed to have an infectious disease, with the central clearing as the center of the circle, groups of monsters fled for their lives, and the birds in the forest flew up in shock, spreading out layer by layer, like a magic feast!
When the whole forest fell into a panic, Ye Kong was also running, only to see that behind him, there were still layers of land bursting open, as if it would never stop, a large amount of mud debris was flying, and the sound was terrifying!
"The scope of this collapse is too large!"
Ye Kong couldn't help but complain while running, obviously he had already run into the forest, but the disintegration born from the clearing still did not stop. And a rough estimate, Ye Kong has run at least a few hundred meters, so it can be seen that the entire collapse range is probably no less than one kilometer!
Fortunately, Ye Kong's speed is very fast, even if the disintegration behind him continues, he can't catch up with his pace, but the other monsters are not so lucky-Ye Kong often sees that the nearby monsters don't have time to escape, they are caught up in the disintegration of the dirt, and with just one breath, new starlight emerges.
Obviously, they were all devoured by the collapse, and the attack judgment of the collapse was very high, and Ye Kong was not fully sure, so he could carry it hard, and running hard was the best policy!
One minute..... Two minutes........
Ye Kong ran for an unknown amount of time, and finally, there was no movement behind him, so he was able to stop, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Huh, fortunately I have the Dragon Breath Shoulder Armor, otherwise I would have to die of exhaustion........"
While speaking, Ye Kong looked behind him, and was about to take a look at the situation: "What the hell is it that has been chasing us for so long...... Long........ A relict city?! β
A huge castle like a mountain, like covering the sky and the sun, stands in the original open space, it also swallows the nearby forest, the whole diameter is more than ten kilometers, the height of the castle is thousands of meters, at a glance, it is simply a Mount Tai, the top towers into the fog, so that people can not see its full picture.
Even the bare part of the castle is also intimidating, and the red walls and the buildings that burn with flames all over can feel the scorching heat even through the distant air.
"Damn, such a big relict city......."
Fortunately, Ye Kong ran fast, ran seven or eight kilometers in one go, and successfully got out of its radius, otherwise, he would have been involved in the collapse phenomenon and would definitely have to hang up on the spot.
Next, Ye Kong looked at the surrounding environment and found that the entire forest had become silent, and there was not a single monster in sight, obviously, they were either devoured by the collapse, or they saw that the opportunity was bad and fled, and none of them were willing to stay.
"It's weird." Ye Kong's brows furrowed: "Ordinary monsters have their own 'panic mode', and it is normal to escape, but sub-elite/elite-level creatures also have to escape, and even the leader-level Fire Rock Lizard King has taken the initiative to escape......... It's too unreasonable, isn't it? β
Boss-level creatures have their own 'self-esteem' settings, and they will not leave their territory unless they lose a territory battle. And now, the appearance of that mysterious relic city has scared away the monsters of the entire forest, making Ye Kong have to feel 'strange'.
So, Ye Kong opened the task bar, about Gushide's trial task, it was clearly displayed 'Mission Completed', as long as he returned to the Purple Rain Fortress and submitted the task to Gushide, he could receive the reward.
But.......
There were two choices in front of Ye Kong, one was to return immediately, and the other was to explore the relict city in front of him.
Judging from the signs, the relict city in front belongs to the 'hidden map', which is somewhat similar in nature to the original Bloodborne Castle, but it is no longer a quest trigger, but a trap trigger.
Ye Kong saw that in the center of the mysterious relic city, there was a stone statue taller than any building, and he could see it clearly from a distance, it was a statue of a beautiful girl, dressed in gorgeous and delicate sacrificial clothes, holding a treasure plate in both hands, and red blood trees grew on the plate, and the top of the blood tree was forming a red lotus flower, which was the same as the igneous rock lotus collected by Ye Kong.
"It seems that the lotus plant on the ground should be the 'trigger mechanism' of the relict city........" Ye Kong understood the reason, and the next moment, he made a decision: "Since I have encountered it, let's go and take a look." β
A hidden map is in front of you, if you take the initiative to give up, it is a pity, you know, hidden maps have always contained huge opportunities, if grasped well, can make the bottom players soar. The original Siye Swordsman is a legacy in the hidden map, which shows the preciousness of the hidden map.
Without further ado, Ye Kong immediately set off and rushed towards the mysterious relic city, and in the distance, he saw a city gate, and there were a total of 8 entrances to the entire relict city, corresponding to eight directions - the entrance in front of Ye Kong was the city gate in the east direction.
Soon, Ye Kong approached the city gate, and the heat in front of him became more and more intense, at a glance, the walls of the city gate were burning with flames, and the buildings in the city were also burning, the strange thing was that the flames did not burn the buildings, but were like their talismans, protecting the buildings from the erosion of time.
There was no one at the gate of the city, Ye Kong entered with the heat, and suddenly, he heard the system prompt.
System Prompt: You have arrived at "Sue Town" (average level: ??? Please look for relevant clues to solve the mystery of this place.
System Prompt: You have entered a hot environment, and your stamina cost is doubled.
"Sue Town?"
Ye Kong's brows furrowed, as if he had some impressions, but he couldn't think of the key point, at this time, he was walking on the streets of the city, and there were raging flames nearby, and bursts of white mist filled his vision.
Suddenly, there was a movement of footsteps in front of him, Ye Kong didn't dare to slack off, and immediately hid in the shadow of a nearby house, activating the talent of high-level breathing, and blending in with the environment.
Bang .......
One by one, the desolate inhabitants with fire spears in their hands came out of the fog, their clothes were very 'shabby', their bodies were covered with strips of cloth like mops, and the dirty stains lined the strips of cloth hideously, and at the same time, their mouths kept muttering, a somewhat quaint word:
βaynan~aynan~aynan~.......β
Cursed Dweller of the Relic City (Level 24): Normal-level creature, zombie health, 3480/3480 HP
They're a bunch of level 24 monsters!
