The two of them left the blacksmith shop and walked towards the dwarf's place of adventurers.

As for what the dwarves said about the Danying Continent and Glowlight City, the two of them didn't have any clue at all.

On this planet, there are three continental plates and tens of thousands of islands, Li Ben and Beyotis are located on the Shangzhou continent, and the other two are Nanzhou and Punishment Island.

Given that they had already seen the strangeness of this undead city, they also had some speculations about it.

According to Beyotis, the door they pass through could be a teleportation point to different worlds or planets. They may have reached another planet. Or, like Li Ben watched the fire before, they fell into a huge and real spiritual illusion.

Li Ben speculated that this world might be another small space arranged by the tomb owner, with its limitations, and the monsters and dwarves here were all part of the elaborate design, otherwise they would not be related to the gold coins they obtained in the outside world.

"Are the humans of the past capable of shaping such a world? I mean the human beings after the Great Destruction, who were able to carve out another space in a small area?" asked Li Ben.

Beyotis thought for a while and said: "We will definitely not be able to do it now, but in the past three thousand years of history, human civilization has not flourished in other forms, but it will generally be destroyed by chaos after a few years, and there is still a possibility to do this." ”

For example, she said: "For example, the Great Wizard Kingdom two thousand years ago, it was the most perfect era for human beings to use the power of chaos, and even based on the power of magic, it was not difficult to open the interstellar gates, and once restore the communication between the planets inhabited by humans, and shape such a virtual space." ”

But no matter how you guess, it's just a matter of finding a direction for the next action. The specific action plan still has to be taken step by step.

When they came to the border between the woods and the plains, they saw the rows of stone houses that the dwarves had mentioned, most of which were taverns and inns that provided food and lodging, and the rest were grocery stores and chamber of commerce stores selling various items.

The two of them, who are accustomed to loneliness, also experienced the lively atmosphere of the buzzing crowd again. All kinds of orcs, humans, elves, dwarves, green-skinned spirits, what they know and what they don't know, all mixed together, these creatures that should kill you to the death are magically innocent of each other.

Leeben and Beyotis walked into a tavern with a lot of human activity, although their costumes were out of place with the others, they only caused others to look at them twice, and there was no consistent xenophobia, as if everyone had long been used to the sudden appearance of strange guys in the crowd.

There is a price card hanging in the tavern for only three gold coins for a night's stay, and there are many kinds of food packages that cost about one gold coin.

Since there are not many gold coins on their bodies, the two of them only need a room. Until they know what this place is, they don't dare to eat the food of this world.

Li Ben asked the shopkeeper how to earn a lot of gold coins, and the shopkeeper looked at him with strange eyes and said, "Generally, adventurers go to kill monsters, and if you look at luck, monsters will drop some gold coins, if you want to get a lot of money at once, just go to that sign and find a task to do." The boss pointed to the big wooden sign hanging on the wall.

Lee Ben and Beyotis went over to take a look together.

"518 East Rose Street, Mrs. Geller posted. Our water heater is broken, and there is a shortage in the city, so we urgently need a velvet runestone, and ten gold coins to buy. ”

"Count Desla Mission. A large number of black gold flowers were purchased, three gold coins per plant, and fifteen gold coins of conjoined plants, unlimited quantities. Another ferocious war beast cub is needed, starting from 300 gold coins, and if there is a suitable one, you can contact to negotiate. ”

"High Frost Tower College, published by Professor Charles. Bulk purchase of all kinds of magic stones, monster raw materials, specimens, not lower than the market price, details negotiable. ”

In addition to these textual assignments, there is also an illustrated assignment that has attracted their attention.

"Royal Treasure Pavilion Finding Notice. Curse the magic bean, detect its location in the center of the Pilov Forest, its object has a strong curse effect, the person who touches it will turn into a alien monster, if there is a capable person can take it, a bounty of 100,000, a third-class nobleman. ”

The picture is of a broad bean covered with writhing tentacles like maggots, and some characteristics are marked next to it, indestructible, tentacles can elongate piercing creatures, aggressive and parasitic, extremely fast, etc.

At this moment a sturdy human man approached, with only a long braid on the back of his head, and the rest of his head was smooth and shiny.

The guy said to Beyotis, "Beauty, are you looking for a task to do? Which one do you like?" How about teaming up with my brother and me?"

"I already have a team," Beyotis said. ”

The man glanced at Li Ben and said, "Is it okay with this strange guy with a broken mask? It's okay, it doesn't prevent me from coming with me, I've been an adventurer for five years, I have a lot of experience, I'm sure to take you to make easy money!

"We want to do this task. Beyotis pointed to the drawing of the beanstalk.

"Hey, if you don't want to form a team, just say it, is Lao Tzu rare?" the man's face changed suddenly, thinking that the woman was playing with him.

Avoiding complications, Lee Ben and Beyotis return to the room to discuss.

"It's so weird here, do you have any clue?" asked Beyotis to Lee.

Li Ben said: "Not for the time being, but the task of the magic bean is worth our attention, if I am the owner of the tomb, if I want to test the comer, it is impossible for him to do something simple to pass, then, the more difficult and challenging, it is likely that we find the key to finding a way out." ”

"If you think of everything in this world as a trial, you do have some truth in it. But..."Beytis didn't continue.

"But what?"

"It's nothing, my thoughts aren't useful at the moment, you go on. ”

"Well, the magic bean quest is just a possible clue, so naturally we can't stare at it. I remember the dwarves said that there was also a witch pharmacy to the north, and we could visit it tomorrow. ”

"I don't have a problem with that. ”

After agreeing to this, the two of them meditated separately in the room, preparing to spend the night.

But in the middle of the night, they all opened their eyes in unison, and they both noticed that the atmosphere around them had changed.

"There's no breath of the living anymore. Li Ben said softly.

He walked to the window and opened it to look out.

The white light shone down from above, and everywhere it went, everything showed a dilapidated appearance, including the inn where they lived, the walls, and the wooden planks, all covered with dust and moss.

"Look at the moon. Beyotis prompted behind him.

Li Ben looked up, at first glance it looked normal, but when he looked at it again, there was a silver gate at the bottom of the moon.

"It's in that place!?" Li Ben frowned.

Beyotis said calmly, "That might be where we're going." ”

"But we can't fly. ”

"There must be another way. ”

Li Ben thought for a while and said, "Let's put this aside for now, let's go downstairs and have a look." ”

The two went downstairs, and there were still people drinking in the tavern late at night, and the four were already drunk and unconscious, some lying on the table, some lying on the ground, and some holding chairs as women.

In the bright lights, the shopkeeper also covered himself with a blanket and fell asleep against the counter.

"What are you going to do?"

Li Ben made a quiet gesture, quietly walked to the window, and opened the curtains to let the moonlight in.

Under the solemn gaze of the two, things in the store have changed drastically.

Most of the tables and chairs have turned into rotten wood, and countless insects and rats are hidden in them. The wine on the table turned into rancid water, and the meat was all made up of wriggling white maggots.

Those characters have long since been bloody, lifeless, skinny and bone-covered, covered with dust, with mutilated teeth, no eyeballs, and a whole body that is full of air.

Li Ben closed the curtains again, and everything in the store returned to normal.

Now, the two of them can be sure that they are indeed still in the original world, in the realm of the dead. Everything here is just a part of the city of the dead.

"Do you think they know?" asked Lee.

"Undead generally can't recognize the fact that they're dead, and if they're intelligent high-level undead creatures, they maybe, but I don't think they're not. Beyotis said.

Li Ben walked to a table, pulled out the flask from the drunken man's hand, poured a glass, lifted the lower part of the mask to expose his mouth, and tasted a drop with his fingers.

Beyotis frowned tightly, feeling a little sick.

"It's normal. ”

After he finished speaking, he took the wine glass to the place where the moonlight penetrated, and in an instant, the aroma of the wine turned into a disgusting rancid stench.

"You don't want to?" Beyotis looked at Lee Ben in disbelief.

Li Ben also dipped a drop in his finger, approached his mouth and licked it. Then he dropped his glass and spat on the side.

After a while, sweat oozed from his head, and he said to Beyotis with a blue face, "I'm poisoned, you should know how to purify, right?"

Beytis nodded and said, "Go upstairs first." ”

The two returned to the house and used the purification technique to relieve Li Ben's poisoning state.

"It's good that you only tasted one drop, otherwise I probably wouldn't have been able to help you. ”

"This proves one thing, as long as the original form is not revealed, things here will not affect us negatively. ”

"Sounds like self-deception. ”

"After all, this is a chaotic world, and there is a chance to turn the false into the true. ”

"I don't quite understand, but I can tell you what I was hesitating about. Beyotis voiced her conjecture, "Remember when we first arrived, we smelled the corpses? These monsters are usually only found in corpse-strewn places, graveyards, slaughterhouses, battlefields. ”

"But along the way, we encountered something vibrant, and I had a lot of doubts. Now, after seeing the truth of these things in the moonlight, I have serious doubts that this is a cursed world. ”

"Cursed world?" What the curse is, most people know very well, but what is going on in this cursed world, Li Ben doesn't know.

"It's something that you're only exposed to when you're training in advanced magic. Everything here, including people, is not just cursed souls or objects. They are part of the curse. Any outsider who has too much to do with the things here will be permanently assimilated by the curse and will never be able to leave it again. If we do complete the task on the signboard and receive the attention of the world, it will be difficult to leave, and eventually we will become part of the curse like those people. ”

"It's like a worm stuck in a cobweb, the more you struggle, the more cobwebs are involved. ”
