Chapter 516: Ghost City

Dragon City.

Seeing these two familiar symbols, Cheng Lin couldn't help but think of Edlaide.

It had said it would build a new Dragon City for the rest of its life, and it seemed it did.

The arch in front of him had obviously been abandoned for a long time, but fortunately it was still passable.

"Be careful, everybody, and approach slowly."

Cheng Lin retracted his thoughts and spoke.

Everyone nodded their heads, lined up in battle formation, and approached.

……

Passing through this abandoned archway, they entered the interior of the city.

By this time, the fog had faded, and the glow of the searchlights would illuminate the surroundings.

Then, the pavement beneath their feet turned into a stone pavement.

As the group continued along the stone path, some houses gradually appeared on both sides.

The architectural style is very "simple" or "ugly", which is more appropriate.

Judging by the height of the rooms, these houses should be the dwellings of the dragon servants.

"Be careful! There's movement! ”

While everyone was curiously looking at these houses hidden in the long river of time, suddenly, one of the team members screamed.

This made everyone nervous for a while, and hurriedly said, "What? ”

"Where is the enemy?"

"Look ahead, around the corner!"

The people looked over, and then clenched their weapons at the same time.

I saw two "ghosts" slowly drifting from the corner of the street.

They emit a hazy, faint light, which may be inconspicuous during the day, but at night, it is very conspicuous.

They resemble humanoids and float in groups from street corners.

Judging by their movements, it looked like they were talking.

Because they had thought of Immortal Island without a trace before, the team members quickly judged it to be a creature similar to the "War Spirit", and almost all of them had experienced that exploration and knew the difficulty of this kind of soul body creature.

didn't dare to be careless at all, and was ready to go for a while, and the sword was tense.

As if waiting for an opportunity, he used his ability to destroy the two "war spirits".

"Don't move yet, it doesn't seem right!"

Xie Qingke had previously maintained ice floes and consumed too much spiritual power, but at this moment she was protected in the middle of the team, and her expression was not so tense, so she immediately noticed that something was wrong.

"What's wrong?"

"They don't seem to notice us, and ...... They seem to be very weak. ”

It was not Xie Qingke who answered, but Zhu Sha, as a cultivator of the Perception Department, he had already spread his spiritual power.

What happened next confirmed the two men's words.

I saw that the two "war spirits" didn't seem to notice the group of fierce guys on the street at all, but just walked forward while talking calmly, heading towards everyone.

As they got closer, Cheng Lin and the others also saw more details clearly.

These "ghosts" are stout, stocky, and strangely shaped, with a tail hanging almost to the ground, which is clearly not human.

And judging from their energy reactions, they don't seem to be souls with combat ability.

The others didn't know, but Cheng Lin naturally saw at a glance that this was the appearance of the dragon servant.

"Hey, under the effect of the Spirit Gathering Ritual Circle, even ordinary dragon servants have formed souls?"

Slightly surprised in his heart, Cheng Lin watched as the two "dragon servants" "pierced" straight through them.

The students didn't attack, they didn't react at all, they were like two worlds to each other.

"Let's go further."

Fu Zhongting said.

Everyone thought about it and agreed.

A dozen people continued to move along the stone road under their feet, and the buildings on both sides became denser and richer, and some more "beautiful" houses appeared, and at this time, the number of dragon servants they observed suddenly increased.

They roam the streets, or in some shop-like building, some in groups, some alone, going in and out of each building, and some performing strange and indescribable movements.

They seemed to be completely blind to the intruders, a feeling that surprised everyone.

"Hey!"

The fourth-grade girl in the second courtyard even took the initiative to stop a dragon servant and tentatively shouted at it.

However, the dragon servant didn't react, and just went straight through her body.

"It looks like these spirits can't spot us at all."

After some attempts, everyone confirmed this basic fact.

Immediately, I couldn't help but let go of my courage a lot.

Of course, the premise of daring to be bold is that the energy response of these souls is indeed very low, and it seems to be non-lethal.

"Do you have a feeling?" Suddenly, Xiao Ningyu asked.

"What?"

"Like, these dragonmen...... Let's call it that, these dragonmen seem to be still alive, they seem to be still working, busy, each with their own thing to do, as if they are repeating their previous lives. ”

Xiao Ningyu bit her lip and said.

At this moment, a dragon servant who seemed to be carrying a flat burden passed by her, it maintained a working posture, but his shoulders were empty.

Hearing her say this, everyone looked at each other, obviously all of them had the same feeling.

"I feel like ...... too These ghosts are as if they have been imprisoned for a certain period of time by some kind of power, and even though their bodies have decayed, their souls still repeat themselves. ”

"It's not...... Why are you talking so intoxicating? Rotting body? What if the family itself is in this state of life? ”

One person couldn't help but say.

"No, if you look closely, do you notice that the appearance of these dragonmen is very similar to some of the images we saw in the migration of dragons before, but they are a little smaller."

"Well, you have a point, but I still have reservations."

There was a slight disagreement in the team, and while everyone was discussing this issue, suddenly, they noticed that the dragon servants around them seemed to sense something, and they all looked in a certain direction.

This immediately made them nervous.

Immediately, I realized that the other party was looking at the end of the street.

"What are they looking at?"

Soon, their doubts were answered.

I saw an even greater light and shadow emerge from the darkness on the other side of the street.

It is in the same state as the dragon servants, and it is similar to the ghost body, but it has a taller body, sharp claws, a huge head, folded wings, and at the edge of the shadow, there are strange spectral fires rolling.

"Dragon! It's the dragon-like creatures we've seen before! ”

Liang Pi exclaimed.

It was indeed a ghost dragon, and it seemed to have just come out of its dwelling, strolling along the street as if it were patrolling territory.

The dragon servants on both sides of the road stood on both sides and saluted, showing a clear difference in rank.

"It seems that for some reason, the style of that time is still preserved in this way."

The fourth-grade girl of the second courtyard looked at the ghost dragon unscrupulously and exclaimed.

Really...... I don't think so......

Cheng Lin retorted in his heart.

He still vividly remembered that when dragons died, their souls would become a mass of energy with no self-awareness, so there was no such thing as consciousness retention.

In addition, when Edlaide arrived here, he was the only one left in the clan, and the dragon in front of him was ...... At best, he was a dragon lord, and this was definitely not something that had ever happened.

As for why this form occurred, he speculated that it must have something to do with Edlaide.

Since the Star Epic Dragon King can touch fate, it is too normal to have some other occult means.

"It's coming, do you want to take a picture? I guess this must be a lot of contribution points, which is a precious discovery, right? Restore the living state of the otherworldly civilization or something? ”

A student of the Second Academy said with some excitement.

These words reminded many people at once, and they were ready to record it.

After previous experiments, they were no longer so nervous, and the dragon was currently behaving like other dragon servants, so it should not be dangerous.

However, Cheng Lin in the team did not think so.

As the dragon lord slowly approached, his heart beat faster inexplicably, and then, a message jumped out of his mind:

[Detecting the approach of a dragon attribute creature, do you want to open the title of "Grave Keeper"?] 】

Cheng Lin was slightly stunned, and then his face changed suddenly, first said "no" in his heart, and then said loudly:

"Be careful!"

What the?

Everyone was momentarily confused when they heard Cheng Lin's sudden shout, and only a few of them took a few steps back almost instinctively, and at the same time held their weapons horizontally in front of them.

In the next second, I saw that the empty eyes of the Dragon Jue who had already approached suddenly overflowed with red light.

Its footsteps stopped, and its huge head twisted a little stiffly, looking at the students who were blocking the street.

Immediately, a killing machine emerged.

Long Jue's mouth opened, and he spat out an illusory "flame".

This flame has no substance, but it is quite destructive to the spirit.

Fortunately, it was slow for a few seconds, giving the trainees time to react.

"Hoo ......"

A mouthful of illusory dragon breath spat out, igniting the stone path.

A few of the students who were slow to hide immediately turned pale, their expressions were slightly sluggish, and a look of pain loomed.

"It's attacking spirits!"

Several people hurriedly shouted.

Everyone was awe-inspired, and after the exploration of the Immortal Island without a trace, they all knew the difficulty of the attack in the spiritual realm.

The physical fitness cultivator can almost only defend, and it is difficult to fight back, and the elemental system is slightly better, but it is very strong to fight out, and it is good to be able to work for four or five points.

As for the perception system, although there are two or three in the team, most of them are used for exploration, not attack.

Even if it is Cheng Lin, aside from the hidden means, there is only one "spiritual storm" suitable for use on the surface.

However, after all, it is only a second-grade ability, and its lethality is limited.

Therefore, when it was determined that this dragon could kill spirits, everyone quickly changed their formation to block them.

"After the Elemental Palace, release the ability backwards, interfering with its abilities, and the others immediately retreat! If this is indeed similar to the previous projection, then this dragon must have a fixed territorial range as well! ”

Cheng Lin quickly issued an order.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the dragon lord suddenly spread his wings and flew into the air, spitting out a "flame" behind everyone, blocking the way.
