Chapter 652: The Demise of Endymion (5)
After flying for a while, Sivi came to the location of the second Truth Gate fragment indicated on the map.
It was a slum building with a large garden and an artificial pond, and it would have been a beautiful place if it used to be, but now it looks like a ruin with a few dots of green.
In front of the gate of the courtyard, there seem to be ancient characters such as 'management' and 'seven districts', but unfortunately the rust is too strict to be completely distinguished.
Instead of entering through the gate, Sivi flew up to the top floor through the magic carpet and jumped into the dilapidated building through a modest skylight.
The three-storey building didn't have an attic, and there was a wide corridor under the skylight, and the glass on the skylight was almost broken, so it didn't take much effort to get in.
The hallway was full of cracks, and it would have been an uninhabitable high-risk building if it had been placed on Earth, but Sivi was keenly aware that although the building itself looked dilapidated, the cracked ports on the walls, floors, etc., were very new, and it seemed that they had only been formed for a short time.
"In other words, the house was originally intact, but after the previous disaster, it was shaken out so many cracks in an instant?" Xiwei rolled up the flying carpet and carried it behind his back, while also complaining in a hurry: "The tofu scum project kills people...... I don't know if there's anyone here......"
It took him a long walk down the hallway before he was sure that the building was the same as the rest of the place he had passed so far. All the people inside were gone.
Standing in front of a broken porcelain cup, Xiwei frowned slightly as he looked at the brown stall on the ground, which still had residual warmth, a liquid similar to coffee.
"In the past, the blacksmith was the same, the alchemy kettle was activated, and the old alchemy kettle required a lot of energy to maintain its operation, and generally speaking, even the middle class could not leave the alchemy kettle open and leave it alone...... This cup is even more obvious, just after brewing the drink, it suddenly shattered......"
Sivi narrowed his eyes, if his reasoning was correct, then probably most of the people in the city. All at the moment of disaster. Suddenly it disappeared.
On the other hand, he didn't encounter any monster attacks in the building. The building, like its appearance, seems to have become completely empty.
Finally, he came to a room with a double pear blossom wooden door.
It's the only place he hasn't explored yet. It is also the deepest part of the building.
The right hand holds the one he just found from a room. A short staff inlaid with green beads serves as a support. Sivi took a deep breath, held the copper doorknob in his left hand, and forcefully opened the heavy door.
This room is far larger than the other rooms in the building. The floor was covered with a thick red knitted carpet, and although the furnishings were covered with dust and some had fallen to the ground, you could vaguely see how magnificent it was.
It seems that this room was supposed to be an auditorium for banquets and the like.
It's just that at this moment, this empty room is full of gloomy atmosphere.
The thick curtains blocked most of the daylight, and only a little light could enter through the gaps in the curtains, and with the help of these lights, Sivi could clearly see that there were many human figures on the walls of this room.
It is not a human figure like a mural, but a human being pressed against the wall and then pasted into the wallpaper, which realistically presents the person's appearance and even the expression of pain.
What's even creepier is that the room has no wallpaper, and the walls are made of red bricks—all of which protrude from the red bricks as if in relief.
And in the center of the room, a statue was erected, which looked like there was an entrance to hell on the floor, and countless people were desperately trying to get out of it.
Above the heads of those men, something resembling a metal plate floated. Undoubtedly, that is the second fragment of the Gate of Truth.
"Is the enemy a human this time?" Sivi frowned, it's not like he hasn't killed anyone, and he doesn't have a Virgin's disease or anything when necessary, but he doesn't like the feeling of killing.
Because of the previous potions, his health was much better, and he quickly stepped onto the statue in the center of the room, stepped on top of their heads, and then grabbed the fragment of the Truth Gate.
Immediately after, the same sensation as the first fragment of the Truth Gate came from the palm of his hand. It seems that the tactic of picking up the pieces and running really doesn't work......
At this moment, among the statue and the surrounding reliefs, countless pale green shadows flew out, as if they wanted to tear Xiwei to pieces!
These creatures were supposed to belong to the category of resentful spirits, their faces were blurred, their expressions were very distorted, and they looked like they were terrible ghosts that had suffered a great deal of pain, and they pounced on Sivi with their teeth and claws!
It's just that compared to the sea of tentacles where you don't know what creatures are, the wraiths are much easier to deal with.
He only paused, and a bright aura appeared around him, and the wraiths squeaked and screamed as soon as they hit it.
However, the duration of the aura was limited, and after more than ten minutes, he still couldn't refine it in reverse, and that aura had already begun to intermittently, and he saw that it was about to be extinguished......
At this time, Sivi gritted his teeth, and smashed the beads on the head of the fine-grade short staff, and suddenly the magic power overflowed, and the magic stored in it was also cast, and a cage composed of countless fireflies encircled all the fragments of Sivi and the Gate of Truth.
"It worked! Let me see the truth......"
At this moment, Sivi finally took the fragment of the Truth Gate, and in an instant, the previous feeling reappeared, and an unfamiliar image appeared in his mind.
The first scene is a small room. The two walls inside are made into bookcases, filled with all kinds of books. Sivi had an impression of this room, which seemed to be a study-like place on the east side of the second floor.
In the study in the scene, a scholarly man wearing gold-rimmed glasses rests his hands on his chin and stares at each other with expectant eyes, and the other party wears a medal similar to a police badge.
The other party reported in a very indifferent tone: "The plan failed, the synthesized beast did not inherit the corresponding intelligence, and the combat ability declined, of course, it is also possible that we have not captured enough samples of Heyàn." ”
"But yesterday the Mage Guild has given me the go-ahead to capture a large number of real materials by force, guys, let's put an end to the battle in the slums!" (To be continued......)
