Chapter Ninety-Five: Death Canyon's Gates of Hell
The mission that Bai Ze accepted this time is also very special among the 'Black Pavilion', it is not the most common assassination and security mission, but more similar to exploration.
The goal of the mission is to go to the Death Canyon in the Kunlun Mountains, commonly known as the 'Gate of Hell', to find the ruins of the Queen Mother of the West, and to deliver its detailed coordinates to the client of this mission.
This task seems simple, but in fact it is extremely dangerous, and the 'Gate of Hell' in Kunlun Mountain has always been famous for its danger, and all kinds of absurd and strange legends come from it.
Whether those horrible legends are true or not, at least for now, no one who enters the 'Gates of Hell' will come back alive!
Moreover, the mission reward is only 10 million, which is the lowest existence of all the tasks in the 'Black Pavilion'.
Not to mention that the original residents of the 'Black Hall' were not interested in this kind of mission, even if there were rare residents who wanted to take the task, as soon as they found out the information and legends about the 'Gates of Hell', they immediately gave up with a numb scalp.
Obviously, in their opinion, the difficulty of this task is completely disproportionate to the reward!
Countless professional explorers will die at the 'gates of hell', and 'amateurs' like them should go to the trouble of giving their lives in vain.
It's just that this task is not like that in Bai Ze's eyes.
He was very familiar with Kunlun Mountain, and he also knew what the strangeness in the 'Gate of Hell' was, and even the palace of the Queen Mother of the West, he had been there at some point in the past.
Therefore, as long as the environment in Kunlun Mountain is the same as Bai Ze's previous plane, even if he has the problem of road idiot, he will be able to find the so-called ruins of the Queen Mother of the West sooner or later.
And the reason why Bai Ze accepted this task was not just for the 10 million reward that made him excited.
The more reason is that if he really finds the ruins of the Queen Mother of the West, he may be able to figure out the relationship between the world under his feet and the previous world, and maybe he can also find some clues that caused the disappearance of the gods in the first place!
At this time.
The dizziness he felt was completely gone.
Bai Ze was silently following behind a tour group and came with him to the entrance of the 'Gates of Hell'.
Naturally, the female tour guide of the tour group could not really lead the tourists into Death Canyon, but stood next to the large stone monument at the entrance, loudly introducing the origin and danger of this place to the tourists.
Listening to the introduction of the female guide, the tourists were surprised, and among them, some of the brave people also dismissed the idea of wanting to go in and find out.
I have to say that Bai Ze's choice to follow the tour group cheekily was still very smart, so that he not only found the 'Gate of Hell' effortlessly, but also achieved a free trip to Kunlun Mountain......
Just when the female guide finished introducing the attractions and planned to lead the tourists out of this place.
I saw Bai Ze walking slowly and unhurriedly towards the inside of the 'Gate of Hell' with his hands behind his back.
When the female guide saw that Bai Ze was actually planning to enter the interior of the Death Canyon, she immediately reminded loudly and kindly: "Hey! This tourist! The interior of Death Canyon is very dangerous! Please come back soon! ”
As a professional tour guide, of course, she could see at a glance that Bai Ze was not a tourist in her own brigade, but it was impossible for her to watch others enter such a dangerous place.
Bai Ze heard the voice coming from behind him, stopped, looked back at the female guide, and smiled at her kindly.
Then, Bai Ze slammed his feet hard and hurried towards the direction of the 'Gate of Hell'!
But how could Bai Ze's movement speed be seen with the naked eye of an ordinary person?
Therefore, the female tour guide and the tourists around her, when they saw Bai Ze suddenly disappear, rubbed their eyes with their hands, and then looked at each other without looking at each other.
"Huh?! Just...... Could it be that I was mistaken? ”
The female guide rubbed her eyes, with a ghostly expression, and couldn't help muttering.
"No, Miss Tour Guide, I saw it just now!"
"Me too!"
"Me too!"
After hearing the words of the female guide, the tourists shook their heads, saying that they and others had also seen the strange scene just now.
Female guide: "......"
The next day, a tour group's report on the ghosts of the 'Gates of Hell' instantly encroached on the headlines of major newspapers and websites, and after a long time, another mysterious legend about Death Canyon appeared......
Inside the Canyon of Death.
The Gates of Hell are two extremes of the spectrum from the sunny Kunlun Mountains outside, and there's an oppressively eerie atmosphere everywhere.
The sky was cloudless, and even the sun could be seen, but there was not a trace of sunlight in this canyon!
The surrounding ground is also covered with animal remains, and if you look closely, you can even find human bones buried in a mass of animal remains.
The wind in the valley was very strong, but I don't know where the wind blew, and it made a terrifying sound, and the sound was like the screams of countless people!
Looking at the environment in front of him and feeling the sound in his ears, Bai Ze couldn't help frowning slightly, he touched his chin with his hand, and muttered thoughtfully:
"I see, no wonder it will be called the 'Gate of Hell', I didn't expect the environment here to be even more exaggerated than what I have been to before, but I don't know if the palace of the Queen Mother of the West is still in place."
Of course, Bai Ze will not be frightened by the environment in front of him, and 'Hell Gate' is just a description.
Besides, he has even been to real hell, so how can he care about these 'pediatrics' in front of him?
Rumble!!!
Just as Bai Ze was trying to recall the location of the West Queen Mother's palace, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck him without warning!
Bai Ze relied on his strong body, and it was completely fine to resist lightning, but the ground under his feet was not so lucky, and he was directly scorched black by lightning, and black smoke rose up.
"Ahem......! How did I forget this! ”
Bai Ze took a breath of black smoke unexpectedly, then coughed lightly twice, looked up at the thunder and lightning that gradually gathered in the sky and said.
He was no stranger to this lightning attack from the sky, and he could even say that he knew it very well.
Because the same is true of the Death Canyon in the plane before Bai Ze, due to its extremely special geographical location, it will actively gather lightning here and attack all lifeforms!
"Forget it, I'd better hurry up and look for the ruins, I guess ......"
After Bai Ze was attacked by lightning, he was not angry in his heart, but could be said to be unusually cheerful.
Of course, Bai Ze didn't have any special hobbies, but felt that since everything here was the same as his previous plane, the location of the Queen Mother's palace in Naxi must be the same!
So, before the next lightning attack came, Bai Ze quickly spread his wings, floated into the air, and then quickly flew in the direction of his memory, completely ignoring the kind of lightning attack that was difficult for ordinary people to parry!
