Chapter 129: The Dark Forest
Nkayi - the place of sleep
Han Dong and Mary Tiss stood on the cross-cutting stone bridge, half of Toad's head crowded into the upper space, staring at the two of them with deep stone eyes.
"Hmm...... You've got pretty good legs and you've been using them well for three months. ”
"Xie Toadzu."
"Have you thought about it? Whether it's to return to your human expeditionary force, or to the city of London or somewhere else. ”
"My mind hasn't changed, I still plan to follow Mary Tise to [the City of London]...... However, I would like to ask Toad Zu if he knows some information about the recent expeditionary force? ”
"Well, since I've been interested in the humans who have reached the [King level] recently, I watched the siege battle that took place in [Desecrated City-Minano] as an avatar.
It's a very interesting fight, even I can't help but applaud, even more interesting than some stage plays in the abyss.
It took two months for you humans to win the siege.
One of them, Olivia, is a very powerful human woman, who has touched the royal barrier, and has contributed more than 30% of the war alone.
And the human attack team led by her has a very good ability to respond to combat in all aspects...... In particular, a group of all-female saints has a strong suppressive effect on Minanori's desecration and filth.
All in all, the war was fought beautifully. ”
"Chaste Holy Maiden...... She was actually in charge of the first major battle. Thanks to Toadzu, there is no need for me to go back. ”
"Don't thank me, this war is inherently interesting.
In addition to me, there are several other old kings who are watching in secret...... Everyone seems to be quite satisfied.
Moreover, this group of humans has also proved their worth through this battle and won a certain right to speak. ”
"Hmmm......"
"Let's talk about the rest of your journey, after all, the city of London is in a very special state, and even the two of you can be in danger.
As the first area to take place in the participant event, the city itself is on high alert.
The old king behind him is also examining all the movements in the city of London......
I can only move you to the wilderness outside the city of London, at an uncertain distance.
Also, as I said before.
The participants in the London City event also attracted a lot of "emissaries" from other old kings...... There may also be some ill-intentioned outliers mixed in with it.
After all, the relationship between the demons is more chaotic than you might think.
In addition, the City of London is also recruiting elite vassals through the [Participant Event...... If you want to stay in the city of London for a long time, this may be a good way to go.
It's up to you to know the details.
As for the identity of Nkaiyi's emissary, you don't need to ...... With your 'head' and your own emissary, you should have better access to the city of London. ”
Before Han Dong could say anything, a powerful spatial stance quickly enveloped the two of them......
In the blink of an eye, he was standing on the surface of a tongue hundreds of meters wide.
The "spatial movement" carried out by Toad Zu himself is quite stable, and people don't even feel that they are moving, and there is no sense of spatial discomfort, following a spatial route that belongs to Toad Zu, heading towards the European plate.
When the toad's mouth opens again.
Han Dong and Mary Tise had landed in the middle of a dark wood.
This is pitch black in the true sense, which is very different from the eternal night in Han Dong's cognition.
All light sources in the woods were devoured, leaving only darkness.
That's right.
The darkness here is like a living fluid, flowing through the forest, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
At the same time, it also made Han Dong have a feeling.
Creating a light source, such as lighting a torch or using a bioluminescent device, will inevitably attract dark resters within a kilometer radius and devour the light source and its belongings.
"It's so dark...... It's the area around the city of London.
Luckily, the Devil's Eye was able to pick up dark matter and feed back accurate visual images to my brain. ”
Mary on the side reached out and touched her body, always feeling that the darkness here was like slime and worms, crawling all over her body.
"Are you alright?"
"It's not very comfortable and I need to get used to it for a while. By the way, how do you feel like nothing is going on? ”
"I'm more adaptable...... Wait, it looks like someone! ”
Han Dong pulled Mary Tis.
"Void Jump"
Erase the process in the middle of the jump.
With a burst of starlight, everyone appeared on the branch of the tree 10 meters above the ground, and merged with the tree through "camouflage".
Slowly emerging along the forest path was a group of locals wrapped in black cloaks, each pushing a minecart in their hands.
The minecart was loaded with a stone block that exuded a dark aura, and even the dark matter around the minecart condensed a terrifying human face in the air.
Based on her knowledge as an atavist, Mary Tiss briefly explains: "These are supposed to be the 'miners' of the City of London, responsible for mining black rock in the area outside the city. ”
Han Dong looked puzzled, "Miner?
The aura of this group of guys should have reached the level of "Nourishment-Alien Demon", right? ”
"Don't bring away the notion of your human position.
According to the owner's understanding, the "miners" in London City belong to relatively high-end positions, and they even need to obtain a miner's certificate before they can officially take up their posts.
These are carefully selected alien miners, and the black rock they mine will be used for the construction of the city's infrastructure, energy supply, and some of the purity black rock can even be used as 'food' for the nobles. ”
"Oh? Let's follow them quietly...... The route they chose should be the safest. ”
Just a minute before Han Dong said this, the miner team suddenly stopped.
A black tail emerges from the lower end of the cloak, signaling readiness.
At the same time, the dark aura that surrounded them turned into tentacles...... This is the Dark Forest, and these Dark Dwellers will get a 20% stat boost.
At the same time, strange props are also sacrificed in their hands.
One dragged the eyeball axe, one carried the dark oil lamp, one held the floppy tentacle dagger, and the other held a swirling pendant, silently chanting incantations.
Even so, there was still a hint of fear in their eyes.
Appearing in front of them was a monster with more than twenty stout goat's hooves.
Together, the goat's hooves could barely withstand its swollen fleshy body.
The surface of the lump is covered with tentacles raised high and toothless mouth structures.
Between the tentacles at the upper end of the flesh mass, there is almost a 'human-like' upper body, looming among the fluttering tentacles...... It seems to be a woman who has no eye structure and puts her hands on her chest.
The overall height is level with the trees here,
The body of this thing emits a fermented stench similar to that of a tomb when it is first dug up, but this smell stimulates the life around it, making them want to 'procreate'.
Even hiding on the branches, Mary Tisi couldn't help but rub her big wet legs against Han Dong.
Marytis looked surprised and said, "How come the heir of the black goat is here?" ”
