Chapter 115 - Shadow Desert City (9)
When Qin Haonan rushed into the alley, the compass in his hand moved again. It seemed that the shadow also started to run, and Qin Haonan chased after a bend and found that Daji had suddenly stopped.
"Uh...... Master, it's disgusting here, I really don't want to leave. Daji's voice trembled.
"Daji, come here, I'll run over with you." Qin Haonan looked at the narrow intersection in front of him and said helplessly.
"Yes, master." Daji walked up to Qin Haonan as she spoke, and Qin Haonan picked her up.
In the alley ahead, there were corpses lying across the ground. There are animals and humans, piles and piles, crowding the path, which is not very wide. A strange smell wafted around the neighborhood, making people want to gag.
"Hehehe...... Aren't you scared...... So I didn't dare to chase it...... Hehehe...... Coward......" The little boy's voice came again.
"Master, we must not let him go." Daji said.
Qin Haonan answered, and ran into the alley. From time to time, he would step on slimy things under his feet, and Qin Haonan couldn't care about that much, so he hugged Daji and rushed out like this.
Running through this long narrow alley, Qin Haonan let go of Daji. Watching the compass in his hand, he quickly chased towards the path on the left. According to the direction that the little ghost is running now, he will reach the exit where Linglong is in a while.
"Huh...... It's all low-level creatures that have been corrupted by demonization, and they can't stand the effects of demonization, so they're all dead...... Hehe...... Hehe......"
"What the hell is your purpose, why are you taking us through here?" Qin Haonan shouted towards the alley.
"Huh...... I want you to see the city in its truest form...... Hehe......"
"Can you stop hehe, can you talk normally?" Daji was dizzy from the little boy's laughter.
Qin Haonan was ready to distract the other party while talking, hoping that he wouldn't find out about being surrounded now, and wait for him to be blocked by Linglong and them.
"And who are you? Why know so many things? "Qin Hao South Road.
“…… Hehe...... Damn, you are ambushing me......" said the little boy angrily, blocked at the intersection.
Lingling and Feimeng had accurately blocked the little boy's way, and at this time, Qin Haonan also ran over and blocked the back road. Qin Haonan took advantage of the moonlight to see the little boy's appearance clearly. In this night, it can't help but be a little scary.
On the blue and white face, half of the face has been eroded by demonic runes, and the erosion is particularly strong.
At that time, Mu Qing and Wushuang did not reach his current level.
A little boy who looked to be seven or eight years old, dressed in gray cloth and barefoot, looked very thin. The right side of his face went all the way to his neck and then to his arm, all of which were densely packed with runes. The deepest and densest area of the black-purple runes has begun to decay on a large scale.
The little boy stared at his cyan eyes and glared at Qin Haonan angrily, and did not speak for a long time.
"I've won, it's time for you to keep your promise." Qinhao South Road.
"Huh...... Well, I lost. I just want you to see the misery here, since the city lord was demonized, all of us people and animals have not escaped this demonized fate. The little boy's expression changed, and it was a little dark.
"Well, who are you?" Qin Haonan asked.
The little boy suddenly sighed: "I am the son of the city lord, and my real name is Luo Kang. I can't remember how many years ago, when my father came back from outside, strange runes appeared on his face, and he has been wearing a mask ever since. Since then, the father has changed, the person has changed, and the personality has changed. And so the city changed. ”
"And then?" Qin Haonan said.
"My father recruited a lot of strange people, and they began to experiment on the animals in the city. At first it was just animals, and then it involved some homeless people. I don't know the exact content of the experiment, but I do know that all the failures of the experiment will become what I am now. This is the erosion of demonization, slowly painful, slowly losing oneself. The little boy said.
"Didn't you ever think about how to treat it?" Qin Haonan asked after hearing this.
"Yes, of course. But no suitable cure was found, and in this way, people and animals in the city died in large numbers. I have seen with my own eyes many, many of my companions being corrupted by demonization, and finally committing suicide. The little boy said, "Until the end, all the living beings in our city were infected with demonization. The sun no longer rises, and the moon hangs in the sky forever. ”
"Ding Dong ~ Congratulations to the player, you have completed the 'Catch Up with the Mysterious Imp Quest'. Rewards: XP +6500, 5 coins. +1 plot progression. ”
Hearing the sound of the system, Qin Haonan knew that this task was completed. However, he still has a lot of questions in his heart, and he is ready to ask the other party clearly.
At this time, Mu Qing and Er Bai had also rushed over from the other exit and surrounded the little boy.
"Luo Kang, my contract beast has also been corrupted by demonization before, but it has also been cured now." Qin Haonan hurriedly said.
"Well, I know, it requires the blood of the dragon hunter and some specific materials. But that's all for high-level bosses, such as divine beasts and holy beast levels. Thinking that small bosses and monsters like us whose level is less than level 100 can't stand the invasion of demonization at all, and there is no cure. The little boy sneered.
Qin Haonan asked, "Then what do you want to do?" ”
"I want to destroy this deserted city, so I need your help." The little boy said seriously, "I need you to find the Deserted City Snake Heart, the Deserted City Spider Heart, the Deserted City Wolf Heart, and the 20 Wandering Soul Dreams." According to this diagram, go to the central square of the Shadow Desert City and draw this circle. ”
"What kind of circle is this?" Qin Haonan asked.
"Array of destruction, huh...... But you can rest assured that you and the contract beasts won't be harmed. When the time comes, you will be at the center of the array, and you will not be involved by the forces of destruction. When the night is gone, and the sun rises again, you will see the exit. The little boy said, handing over a sketch of the circle.
"Okay." Qin Haonan took the sketch as he spoke.
"Ding Dong ~ Players are like a dream, you have triggered the 'Destruction Array Quest', please collect Qi Desert City Snake Heart, Desert City Spider Heart, Desert City Wolf Heart and 20 Wandering Soul Dreams, and go to the central square of the Shadow Desert City to draw a magic circle. Rewards: XP +8500, 10 gold. +1 plot progression. ”
Qin Haonan was very happy to see that this triggered the task again. In this case, this copy is nearing completion. As long as you complete this task, you can almost clear the level.
"Let's go, I want to be here quietly for a while." The little boy said.
"Not with us?" Qin Haonan sent out an invitation.
"No, there's an enchantment in the central square, and creatures that have been attacked by demonization can't enter. It was the beginning, when undemonized humans designed an enchantment to fend off demonized creatures. The boy said and became sad again.
