"Are you sure it's not a hallucination?" said Apar, taking a closer look at his surroundings, before whispering, "There doesn't seem to be anything special here. ”

"If you look closely, you may not be able to find anything. Jia Zhengjin replied affirmatively, "I did feel something just now, and I can't be wrong." ”

"Okay, let's check it out nearby. Apar turned to the old man, "What about this man?"

Seeing two people of unknown origin looking at him, who didn't know whether they were humans or ghosts, the old man was suddenly terrified. Although the grave keepers are generally very bold, there are real undead and all kinds of undead creatures in this world. If you really do, then you will die and have no place to be buried!

Seeing the old man's frightened appearance, Jia Zhengjin waved his hand: "Leave him alone, it's important to get down to business." You go that way, I'll look this way, and find out the truth as soon as possible. ”

"Good!" said Apar, who quickly turned away and inspected the cemetery in the night.

"Don't be afraid. Our mercenary union, this time we came specifically for the mission issued by Viscount Bach. I noticed that there was a strange movement here, so I rushed over. Jia Zhengjin took out the mercenary badge and showed it, "This matter has nothing to do with you, and no one will hurt you." Do what you have to do, don't affect us. ”

"Yes, yes......" The old man was a civilian, of course he knew that mercenaries were not easy to mess with, so he nodded again and again, "Then I'll go back to the house first?"

"Go!" Jia Zhengjin nodded as he left, and then walked towards the opposite position of Aipar.

The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, kept wandering in the cemetery under the cold moonlight.

If this is a timid person, he would not dare to approach it in the early hours of the morning.

However, Jia Zhengjin himself is an atheist, and even if he crosses into this other world with gods and various undead creatures, he is not so afraid. Coupled with the strength of today, there is no need to worry.

As for Apar, a dignified god with a combat power of more than 100,000, there is no reason to be afraid.

The two of them looked very carefully, and did not miss a single place.

However, Jia Zhengjin was almost outside the cemetery, and he still didn't find anything strange.

Just when he wondered if he had really hallucinated just now and saw something that wasn't real, Apar's voice came from the other side: "This way!"

Her voice came into Jia Zhengjin's ears very clearly, as if it didn't matter if it was so far away.

But also, how far is it to reach the ladder?

Aypar suddenly called out to himself to prove that there must be someone over there. Jia Zhengjin turned around and moved quickly, directly to her side: "What's the matter?"

Aypar also walked out of the cemetery, crouching a few meters from the cemetery's fence. Hearing Jia Zhengjin's voice, he pointed to a big tree in front of him without looking back and said, "This tree seems to have no vitality!"

"No vitality?" Jia Zhengjin looked up in confusion, looked at the lush green leaves and said, "Isn't this good?"

"But it really doesn't have a life," said Ephal, "and I don't feel its vitality even though it looks luxuriant on the outside." Speaking of which, it's a little similar to the kid's state just now......"

"You mean there is no soul?" Jia Zhengjin frowned, "But the tree has no soul in the first place, right?"

"But it also belongs to living beings, but all living beings have their life force, and this is necessary for existence. It's as if people have to have souls, and that's the same thing. ”

"In other words, this tree has something to do with what we're looking for?" Jia Zhengjin said in a low voice, "Then do you feel that power?"

"No!" Aypar shook his head, "It's strange, there is no trace of anything left except that he is in the same state. ”

"Then do you want me to chop it down and see what's weird?" Jia Zhengjin stepped forward and took out the logging axe from his virtual backpack, eager to try.

"Wait!" Aypar hurriedly stopped, "we need to find the truth, don't rush to destroy it." If this tree is destroyed, the only clue will be lost!"

"What then?" Jia Zhengjin asked depressedly, "You can't be in a daze here, right?"

"There's definitely something strange about this tree, let's investigate. Apar reached out and stroked the rough trunk, looking it up and down.

Jia Zhengjin also followed her around the tree a few times, but found nothing.

The two of them looked at each other, but they couldn't see any useful information.

Probably a little annoyed, Jia Zhengjin jumped directly onto the tree, stepping on the thick branches and constantly moving to the top.

"What are you doing?" Seeing him suddenly ascend the tree, Aypar was puzzled.

"There's a saying that you stand tall and look far away, haven't you heard of it? Maybe when you get to the tree, you can see a different scenery. ”

"Makes sense!" Aipar nodded, and then he also flashed directly, and appeared at the top of the big tree with Jia Zhengjin.

The two men stood on the top thick branch, turning their heads to take a closer look.

"Huh, look!" The top really has a good view, and there are a lot of things to see.

Under the ability of night vision, Jia Zhengjin clearly found that the top protected by dense leaves, the main trunk was actually broken.

And the fault turned out to be hollow!

Although it was quite secluded by the dense foliage around it, he discovered the hollow in the tree.

Aypar also saw the tree hole, and showed a puzzled look: "This tree is hollow? And this tree hole is also very strange, it doesn't seem too natural." ”

"Can you find out what's in the tree hole?" Jia Zhengjin asked.

Apar shook his head.

"I'll try. Out of curiosity, Jia Zhengjin took out a small stone from his virtual backpack, aimed it at the tree hole and threw it in. Then he stared at the hollow of the tree with Apar, pricking up his ears and listening carefully.

Strangely, when the stone enters the hollow of the tree, it is as if the stone has sunk into the sea, without a single wave.

Even after a while, I didn't hear the sound of the stone falling, which is even more weird!

No matter how deep the tree hole is, there is also a time when it bottoms out. How can a small stone be thrown without an echo?

At this time, not only Jia Zhengjin was curious, but Aipar also quickly approached the tree hole and looked inside suspiciously.

"What can you see?" Jia Zhengjin asked in a low voice as he looked at the dark tree hole.

"I can't see anything!"

"I can't see anything. ”

"This is a little weird!" said Ephal, "It stands to reason that I can see what's inside, no matter how dark it is." But now the hole is empty, and I can't even see inside. I suspect it might be a magical gate-like existence. ”

"Might and Magic?"

"It's anything that can enter it and teleport to other places, distorting the existence of space. It's usually magic, similar to your teleportation magic array. ”

"Then you go in and have a look?" Jia Zhengjin hurriedly said, "You are a god, it is difficult to live without danger." ”

"You too!" Aipar reached out directly, grabbed Jia Zhengjin by the collar, and then led him to forcibly jump into the tree hole.
