Chapter 48, Sealing the Demon City

'Seal the Demon City'.

It was a huge rock city, with two gates open in the north and south of the city for people to enter and exit. The walls of the North City Gate are hundreds of meters high, extending east-west to the Hopeless Sea on both sides of the Lieyang Continent.

The walls of the city unleashed a powerful prohibition visible to the naked eye, which lasted all year round, and any creature that came close to it would instantly turn into scorched earth. To the north of the walls is the endless wilderness of the North. Since the first year of the Lieyang Era, after the war between gods and demons, the ancestors of Lieyang established this stone city, the 'Sealed Demon City' has been peaceful, and there is no more demon spirits and monsters to disturb it, and the city is even more peaceful.

Although it is only separated by a wall from the Demon Beast Wasteland in the North, the city is heavily guarded all year round, and the laws are strict, except for those who are brave enough to venture into the wasteland, this can be said to be the safest place in the entire Sun Realm. Therefore, people of all ethnic groups are willing to live in this border city. The 'Sealed Demon City' is like a distribution center for the development of trade between various ethnic groups. With a large population base, the 'Sealed Demon City' is definitely the richest city-state in the entire Sun Realm.

In that year, after the discussion of various ethnic groups, the "Sealed Demon City" rotated the position of the city lord between the various ethnic groups every 20 years, and replaced officials and guards at all levels every ten years, responsible for guarding this throat fortress and protecting the south of the "Sealed Demon City" and the peace of all realms.

Of course, the city lords, officials, and guards on duty must not leave without permission, but the city lords can dispose of all the resources in the city at will, and the officials and guards at all levels are paid very well.

And because as long as there are no demons and monsters attacking, there is usually nothing to do in the city, so the city lords of all clans who are generally on duty will choose to use the most abundant resources to assist in cultivation. Although there is no freedom, the position of the lord of the city is obviously a fat difference.

Therefore, whenever it is the turn to select the city lord of the 'Sealed Demon City', there will be fierce competition among the various clans, who doesn't want to have a leisurely and resourceful beauty?

On this day, the 'Sealed Demon City' is peaceful, I don't know what kind of unique geographical advantages it has, although the sky is scorching, but the city is still green and green, cool and pleasant, everywhere is scattered with intoxicating clouds and mist and water vapor, it seems to completely ignore the ruthless scorching of this huge sun on the top.

Perhaps this has annoyed 'it' and started to take all its anger out on the northern wastelands just across the wall! I saw the loess wasteland outside the city wall, under the wrath of the scorching sun, there was little vegetation on the ground, and the high temperature made the air above the ground extremely distorted, like a crazy evil spirit, trying to escape from this really suffocating barren land.

Inside and outside the city, the different color layouts form a strong visual contrast, as if there is a sharp difference between heaven and hell.

At this time, several guards on duty on the northern city wall were chatting boredly. There are three people, supporting each other to walk on the wasteland, and it is clear that their goal is the 'Sealed Demon City' in front of them.

The three men, a man and a woman, with a young son, looked ragged and tired, and apparently had several wounds on their bodies, only the young man looked a little better, but inevitably a little too thin.

The hot, dry air made the steps of the three of them look unusually heavy, and from time to time, the weaker woman would fall to the ground. But they still seemed very happy, they knew that as long as they passed the 'Sealed Demon City' ahead, they would have hope, at least be able to survive.

"Stop! What people! A guard of the Shenyan Clan with two sharp horns on his head on the city wall had already spotted the three approaching people, pulled up the bowstring in his hand, and asked sharply.

"My lord, don't do it, we are human." The man outside the city hurriedly helped his wife and children to stop and shouted.

"Do you have a registration when you go out of town?" The guard was still stern.

"No, we are not people who came out of the 'Sealed Demon City', we are the remnants of the human race in the northern Yulan, and now the whole clan has been wiped out by the demonic beasts, only the three of us are left, my lord is okay, let's go in." The man pleaded.

"Not registered? Then I don't care if you are human or not, I will only say it once, you are not allowed to get half a step closer, otherwise you will ......! The guard's voice was cold.

"My lord, the three of us really can't survive in this northern wasteland, I beg your grace, if we can't enter the 'Sealed Demon City', then the three of us will only have a dead end." The man began to kneel and plead.

"No, the law of the Sealed Demon City stipulates that no one who has not registered in and out of the city will not be allowed to enter the city, let's go, stay any longer, be careful I'm not welcome!" The guard began to draw his bow and string, looking like he was ready to strike.

"My lord, at least let my child in......" Before the man could finish speaking, he saw a sharp arrow whizzing with the sound of the bowstring, and with a 'bang', it fell into the ground in front of the three of them, and they were so frightened that they rolled over and fell to the ground.

Seeing that the other party was so ruthless, the three of them knew that if they continued to entangle, they would probably die on the spot, so they helped each other to get up, and before leaving, they threw extremely resentful eyes in the direction of the 'Sealed Demon City'. Then they held each other up again and walked the way they came.

A gust of wind blew, rolling up the wind and sand, drowning the tired and desperate figures of the three men, and then under the city walls, the former tranquility was restored again, and the guards continued to chatter unfinished, and no one cared about the life and death of the three men.

It was late at night, and the three of them walked in a dead wood forest, and because they were too tired, they found a seemingly clean place to sit on the ground. Because the last hope had been ruthlessly stifled, the two men and women were disheartened at this time, and only looked at the young son in front of them with tears in their eyes.

"Father, mother? Why are you crying? The boy asked childishly.

At this moment, the originally poignant moonlit night suddenly became cloudy and windy, and a very nice woman's voice sounded out of nowhere: "I didn't expect that there would be a fresh and delicious soul sent to the door, oh?" It's still a human race, it's rare, hahaha......."

When the two men and women heard this voice, they immediately got up and called up all the spiritual power left in their bodies, conjured up two sharp swords in their hands, and looked at them in horror.

"It's the Soul Eater Demon Spirit, take your son and go first, I'll come to the palace!" The man shouted loudly to his wife.

"His father!?" The woman looked hesitant.

"Hurry up, leave me alone, or we'll all die!" After the man finished speaking, he pushed the child onto his wife.

"Since you're here, do you want to leave?" This beautiful voice became extremely cold at this time, and after speaking, countless cries of terrible evil ghosts sounded around in an instant, and then the yin wind suddenly accelerated, and the strong wind drove the sand and stones, and in the blink of an eye, a black hurricane covering the sky and the earth was formed in this dry forest, which just trapped the three of them in the middle, and the poor them were like falling into the underworld, and their hearts trembled!

Fear just hit their hearts, they didn't have time to react, the five senses were instantly deprived by the cry from the underworld, it felt as if there were 10,000 ghosts screaming and crying in their ears, the huge noise penetrated from the ears to the heart and lungs, and even the soul in the body was ready to move, as if it would leave the body at any time, at this time, not to mention that it was difficult to run, it was difficult to move a step. I saw two big and one small three, all of whom desperately covered their ears with their hands, knelt on the ground and screamed heartbreakingly, but all their efforts were in vain.

The screams, the howls of the ghosts, resounded all over the world, accompanied by the black hurricane blowing tightly, playing one of the most terrifying and deadly movements in the world.

"Hahaha......"

This was the 'Soul Eater''s favorite music, and this poignant laughter was harsher than any other sound in the world, and it was filled with a terrifying magic that would take the soul away! The souls of the two men and women kneeling on the ground could no longer resist it, and suddenly they broke out of their bodies, and their soulless bodies collapsed to the ground as if they were boneless, turning into two cold corpse skins.

The two souls after leaving the body, like entities at this time, glowed with a faint light in the air, and then joined the cold hurricane without stopping, like mud cows entering the sea, becoming a part of the black hurricane.

"It's been a long time since I've tasted such a delicious fresh soul, hahaha...... Hey? I didn't expect that your little baby is quite surprising, and you have such a powerful soul power! Not bad, not bad. ”

With the woman's very pleasant voice, a ghostly figure escaped from the black hurricane and floated to the little boy.

Looking at the figure again, it turned out to be very beautiful, with willow eyebrows and fine eyes, and a standard melon seed face, but it was a beautiful embryo. Wearing a phoenix crown and a xia robe, any man can see that there is a possibility of falling in love with her at any time, but the skin on his body is slightly pale.

At this moment, the beautiful woman stretched out a slender right hand and picked up the little boy's head on the ground, and at the same time, there was no more howling in the boy's ears, and then he opened his clear eyes and looked at the woman's face with a trembling look.

The four eyes were facing each other, only to see that the woman's eyes suddenly lit up with purple glow, and her appearance became extremely ugly and terrifying at this time, only to see her open her mouth full of fangs, spit out a long tongue like a giant insect from her mouth, raised her thin and pointed hands like eagle claws, and screamed at the boy, and the purple light in her eyes shot out, straight into the boy's eyes.

"Ahh ......" The boy exclaimed, and then he was pulled by the purple light, and he rose into the air, and was instantly deprived of consciousness and fell into an endless sleep......

It was a nightmare, a real nightmare, and the owner of the nightmare had woken up from the screams, his head shaking a little heavily, and his eyes had become sharp and eerie......

"Oh, Brother Luo is not from the Sun Realm? It's a novelty! ”

At this time, Luo Yi and Nangong Jiu Ge were chatting aimlessly around a bonfire, and at Luo Yi's suggestion, the two threw away each other's polite honorific titles and began to call each other brothers, which also made the communication more easy-going and smooth.

"Yes, I and Chen Xiaoyun, Wang Hai and several other subordinates are not."

"The world is so big that there are no wonders, and it's no wonder you've been able to create such powerful and strange armor." Nangong Jiu Ge stared at the battle armor on Luo Yi's body, his eyes were full of curiosity, as if he wanted to see through the mystery.

"Let the Jiuge brothers laugh, it's just some little tricks, don't take it seriously, don't mention it." Luo Yi didn't mean to be polite, he just didn't want to be arrogant, and he didn't want to continue this topic, at present, the mecha of the human race is a big killing weapon that the human race can rely on, but he doesn't want to share it with the Shenyan people, at least not for now, after all, the two armies have confronted each other.

Nangong Jiuge is also an interesting person, knowing that the other party doesn't want to talk about it at this time, so he returned to the original topic and said, "Brother Luo, can you tell me about your hometown, so that you can gain knowledge?" ”

Luo Yi looked up at the sky, looked at the bright stars in the sky, and fell silent, the fluttering firelight hit his melancholy face, and the look was a thought of his hometown, "I don't know what happened to the earth?" Maybe the moon is gone, maybe the earth is already a dead star. But at that time, seeing that the Midnight Clan was still stationed on Earth, maybe they had saved the moon crisis through their own technological means, that was the only good thing they did, at least, home was still ......"

Nangong Jiuge followed Luo Yi's gaze and looked up at the sky, but his mood was completely different, in his eyes, it was just a beautiful black background picture, and there was no more meaning.

"We come from Earth...... Maybe it's between these stars......"
