Chapter 481: Abnormal Plane
Faced with this special environment, Tang Shidao only wondered one thing in his heart: what did the snake mage want to do?
It wants to test its successor, and it can't just do meaningless things.
Apocalyptic world?
Zombie Country?
Hehe, does this gadget make sense to mages? Not to mention the existence of such a tall and powerful mage in the Holy Realm, even if a mage with a few hundred mana points under the Holy Realm can easily clean up the apocalyptic world. As long as there is no limit, it is easy to knead these zombies round and flatten by relying only on life weaving.
Although the 'total ban' is very troublesome now, it is only the essence of the low-martial world not to change here.
Feel.
The snake mage just deliberately made a restriction and deliberately played a game in which there was no nourishment.
"Master, we may be in a supergiant trouble." Jin Fei went to explore the way and soon returned. She was a little out of breath because flying consumed a lot of her stamina. In the case of total ban, she has no energy to waste.
"What's the matter?"
"It's complicated to say. There are already people waiting in the city, so go talk to them, master. Xiao Jin gestured, and everyone listened strangely.
It feels ......
Locals aren't surprised by the arrival of their group?
Still welcome?
Tang Shidao nodded, and did not waste time. The group slowly walked down the high wall and walked towards the city within the high wall. At this time, some scouts hit the road in advance, and one by one the intelligence soldiers also returned to deliver the video. Because there are a large number of people on standby in the Black Lake Teleportation Pool, they are not afraid of losing the '72 death quotas' after confirming the safety of the surroundings.
Except for a few people who need to work, most of the audience have leisure to watch.
At this time.
Tang Shidao and his party walked down the high wall, through the defensive lines, and walked towards the gate of the second high wall. As they walked, they noticed that the defensive line was manned only by concrete and rock watchtowers, and that there were no soldiers or weapons in the trenches. The small number of soldiers in the watchtower completely ignored outsiders, as if they had become accustomed to it.
And.
From time to time they disappear into the watchtowers, and it seems that there are special passages underground.
"Where did it come from? Leave a team name. "When I walked to the second gate, the soldiers at the gate only briefly questioned him, and did not interrogate him at all. Judging by their attitude, it seems that they don't leave their names, and it's okay to just call the door open.
"We are from the Tang Kingdom, and we have an appointment with Captain Rhodes."
"Well, let's go inside. Don't kill people indiscriminately when you enter the city, but fight a duel in the city. The sentry soldier signaled that the gate of the high wall was not completely open, and only a small two-meter door was opened. He also spoke strangely, as if killing people was a small thing.
At this time.
A few hundred meters further away, another high-walled gate opened as a large convoy returned.
They had more than a hundred large trucks, full of soldiers and unknown fresh meat.
Two high walls, with very clear oversized lettering: the outermost part of the wall is written 'outer wall', and the second is the 'inner wall'. Because the interior walls are higher, you can only see the high-rise buildings of the city at present, and you can't see the ground clearly. A small door opened at the door of the interior wall, and immediately a hot wind blew out, mixed with some sweat and flesh.
Tang Shidao and his party walked in.
Soon, I was almost frightened by the situation in front of me.
After entering the inner wall, everyone found that the defense of the two walls was not all. Inside the city, all the buildings are basically connected into a single unit, and all are defended by concrete or rock. The tall buildings on the higher roofs are not abandoned, they look even more dilapidated, because they are full of traces of battle.
Look at it as a whole.
The city is like a pyramid, the lower the level, the stronger it is, and the additions on it are only destroyed a little.
It resembles an ant nest, with countless passages and entrances and exits on the lower level.
Because the city is so large, these passages have also been transformed into spacious streets and markets. In addition to the lanes for vehicles, there are also rope bridges and network roads that people have built themselves. In short, it's like a broken spider's web.
Of course, none of this is amazing.
The scariest thing in front of me is...... Population!
After walking into the city, there are flat grounds, corridors, rope bridges, fences, and people everywhere you look. It feels like a holiday scene, or a concert audience. In addition to the earthen walls of the buildings, there are people in basically the places where people can stand. There are even children climbing on some of the curved walls. People can only walk in the aisles, and there is not a single empty passage.
There are three characteristics of these people.
One, the clothes are very dirty. Their bodies are clean, but their clothes seem to have not been washed for dozens of days.
Second, there must be 'weapons'. Adults of both sexes had daggers, very few had guns, and children hung with a piece or two of sharp iron.
Three, there is a brand.
It says 'Mercenary', or Butcher, Cook, Cleaner, Coolie, and even Sleeping with and Selling Slaves. There's no guessing that these brands are their job. The highest is only a musician, and the most despicable one has been mixed up to the point of selling himself as a slave.
When passing by, many people on both sides were unveiled.
Some mercenaries with guns walked over.
They only target the strongest 'mercenary' seeds, examining their bodies as if they were prisoners. Asking someone to strip naked, or breaking open someone's mouth to check their teeth, is no different from buying livestock. The women who sold their bodies were similar, and the other party was satisfied with the inspection before taking them away. You can even 'test' it directly against the wall.
The 'money' here is steel and grain, or cloth, and in any case no one uses paper money.
For Tang Shidao and his party, all the people were surprised and envious.
Because it's so clean, it's so spiritual.
They weren't surprised by the red-skinned Morrosa with horns, nor the white-eared and white-skinned Elven Empress, or even a little man the size of a palm, like Xiao Jin. Tang Shidao and the others obviously felt that they were only surprised by the clean clothes on their group.
"Welcome. No matter where you come from, I sincerely welcome you and friends from afar. ”
It didn't go far and a convoy arrived.
The leader was a middle-aged man with a scar on his face, two pistols and three bullet belts pinned to his waist.
"My name is Rod, what do you call me?" The man at the head identified himself as Rhodes and clasped his hands into fists.
"This is the leader of our team, you can call General Tang." Xiao Jin took the first step to speak, and then said: "We are different from this there, so it's good to call it like this." General Tang can call the shots on our behalf, but we don't know much about this yet, and we hope that Commander Rhodes will clear up his doubts. ”
"Can you tell me what you mean?" Rhodes wasn't surprised.
"Find something and help if you can." Tang Shidao also answered at this time.
"Help...... Heh, thank you General Tang for your kindness...... Thank you so much, really. Now let's go to my base and talk while we stop. Rest assured, we have no examples of hurting outside friends. I'm not the first, and I don't dare to be the first. Rod stretched out his hand to plead, and he could feel that there was no malice.
Tang Shidao nodded slightly.
Everyone was a little worried, but they didn't take Rhodes and his party seriously.
After all.
Even with the power ban, the physical fitness of the two sides is still far, far apart. Especially generals such as Yue Hu and Xiang Meng, who were a few percent weaker, could still screw off the heads of these mercenaries with one hand.
The group followed the convoy for a few hundred meters.
Slowly, enter a bomb shelter-like base.
In addition to the car is the gun, except for the soldier is the woman. The white beauty clung to Tang Shidao, not daring to look at the surrounding situation. Because half of these soldiers and women are unclothed, and there are also some 'heated exchanges'.
"You may be seated." Rod took out an old book, blew a puff of dust, and put it in front of Tang Shidao.
The cover of the book is the three words "History of the Universe".
Tang Shidao took it and opened it, but Xiao Jin asked: "Captain Rod, can you explain it to us?" ”
Rod nodded, and at this time, Tang Shidao was also turning the first page, which was what Rhodes said: "According to the records of our predecessors, our universe is called the Seventy-two Universe of Snakes. I didn't say why, but that's what I called it. It is said that we also have similar serpent universes, serpent universes, serpent universes, and serpent universes, all the way up to the serpent universe, a total of 72 similar universes. ”
Xiao Jin said lightly: "Do you believe in multiple cosmology? ”
Rod smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, we don't have time to pay attention to it." ”
Tang Shidao turned another page.
Rhodes continued: "In this universe, wherever there is a sun, there must be a living planet. So, there are countless groups of people and races in the sky. There are elves, demons, and even orcs like your teammates, and I've seen some orcs. Everybody here is at war, just like us. ”
Tang Shidao turned another page, thinking that maybe this place was not static, it had always been like this.
Rhodes continued: "Regarding our war, some say it is a test, others say it is retribution, in short, no one knows the reason. All we know is that a long, long time ago, some meteorites fell from the sky, and meteorites grew giant plants in the ocean, and plants gave birth to many fruits with monsters. And so the endless invasion began. ”
"Can't you use high-tech weapons to destroy those trees?" ”
Rod shook his head: "It's useless, some of them are rooted in the ocean." Even if you burn the land and the sea, the bottom of the ocean will grow rapidly. In addition, it is not possible to store too much energy here, otherwise it will explode or be destroyed instantly. Scientists believe that there is a more subtle energy in the air that has a interference effect, leading to an energy overload that causes anomalies. So, it is impossible to get rid of those plants. ”
Tang Shidao flipped through the book, and Xiao Jin asked again: "Can those plants be eaten?" ”
Rod nodded: "Some of their 'fruits' are edible, and some are poisonous. Humanoid, we generally can't get out of the mouth. The fruit of the giant plants is mostly beasts and monsters, our main source of meat. I have to remind you that the guns are good here, but the bullets are limited. It is too difficult to source materials, and it is difficult to produce with technology. In the long run, guns are inferior to swords. ”
"What are your strengths and weaknesses?"
"What we lack is food and weapons. The advantage is that you are a little smarter than them, and the other thing is that there are more people. It's funny, people are a weapon here. In the event of a large-scale war, even if you have firearms skills, you can only use swords and axes to slash, and even use wooden clubs to fight wild beasts. ”
"Why aren't you surprised by our arrival?" Jin continued to ask.
"Because of the Bloodgate." Rhodes took out a map and pointed to the outer wall: "There are many teleportation tables on top of the outer wall. As long as you hunt down wild beasts, or collect the blood of the inhabitants, and water it to a certain extent, a blood gate will appear. If you enter the Blood Gate, you can enter a random planet. Our scientists have studied, it is about 100 to 1 blood volume, and it is okay to kill those zombies outside to take blood, as long as it is 100 times the amount of people, anyone can send a group of people into the blood gate. ”
"Random teleportation?"
"Well, I haven't heard of it coming from other universes. The inhabitants of this universe can teleport through the blood gate and run through the universe. ”
"Why didn't you leave?"
"Because other planets may have more people. Wars never stop, and population is the only weapon resource we don't lack. Rod sighed and added, "We welcome any visitor, because the traveler also represents abundance." But you need to be self-sufficient here, and we really can't afford to entertain you. ”
