In the evening, the overcast sky was cold and windy, and heavy snow drifted away.

The guard room on the second floor of the town official hall.

The red-hot charcoal dispels the cold air throughout the house, and the warmth contrasts sharply with the cold outside.

Mu Er, whose language and ability were blocked by pitch-black chains, sat on a chair in the corner at the moment, his eyes full of sadness.

Next to the brazier, Little Stone and Nost sat next to each other, both looking a little worried.

Nost is worried because the old mayor has not returned since last night, and Little Stone is worried about the "tragic" fate of the Makuai.

A howling cold wind blew outside, and sparks splashed out of the brazier from time to time to make a thunderclap.

Other than that, there was a terrible silence in the room.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, the door of the confinement room was pushed open.

The old mayor walked in with a little snow on his head and clothes, looking very tired.

"Teacher, you're back!"

Seeing the old mayor who pushed the door in, Noster's face was slightly relieved, and he quickly got up and said, "Sit down first to drive away the wind and cold." ”

"Hello Mayor Grandpa!"

The little stone next to Nost saw that the old mayor's face also turned from worry to joy, and hurriedly got up to say hello.

"The little stone is also there, so sit down."

The old mayor patted the snow off his body, then beckoned to Little Stone and Nost and sat down on an empty chair.

"Woo ......"

Seeing the old mayor, the curtain who was sealed in the corner was so excited that tears were about to flow out, and he desperately whined.

So much had happened last night, and the old mayor was so tired that he didn't notice the curtain in the corner at first.

At this moment, he saw that Dao Mu'er was sealed by the Nost card, his brows furrowed slightly, and he opened his mouth to ask Noster, "What's wrong with Ervazi?" ”

However, before Nost could speak, the little stone on the side hurriedly said: "Grandpa Mayor Town, Xiao Er, he has been infected by demons!" ”

"Save him!"

Hearing Xiao Shi's words, the old mayor glanced at the curtain and then looked at Nost with a puzzled expression.

Looking at the look of guilt on Noster's rugged face, the old mayor shook his head.

In the corner, Makuai couldn't see the old mayor's expression clearly because of the angle.

But hearing Xiao Shi's incomparably sure words and the look on Noster's face, Mu Er was really uncomfortable and helpless in his heart.

Now Makuai doesn't know how to explain it, to be precise, he doesn't even have a chance to speak.

In the end, Lady Luck didn't abandon him after all.

I saw the old mayor stand up and take a deep look at Mu Misfortune a few times, then turned to Nost and shook his head and said, "Break the seal of Ervazi, he is not infected by demons." ”

"Yes!"

When Nost heard the old mayor's words, his face turned from sorrow to joy.

Then, I saw him whisper to the pitch-black iron chain: "The chain of imprisonment in the void, in response to the contract of Tinoyaka, the seal is unsealed!" ”

"Bang bang!"

The pitch-black chain instantly detached from the curtain at Noster's command, flying in the air with a crashing sound.

At the moment when the chain of void imprisonment left, the suppressed qi and blood power in Maku's body immediately erupted like a wild horse that had escaped.

"Boom!"

Pale golden blood with a faint mysterious and majestic aura soared into the sky behind the curtain doom.

One after another, the air currents were lifted, shaking everything in the room slightly.

Fortunately, Mu Er knew what kind of place this was, and although he was a little dissatisfied after being sealed for nearly a day, he was withdrawn from his body after the pale golden qi and blood exploded for a breath or two.

Xiao Shi looked at the curtain that was not particularly kind to him, and his heart shuddered.

Hurriedly asked the old mayor, "That...... How could Xiao Er's change be so big? ”

"Isn't Xiao E's body of ten thousand leaks that can't be cultivated?"

Nost also looked at the old mayor in confusion.

"Didn't you feel the change in the energy of heaven and earth last night?" The old town waved to Mu Er and the others to sit down, and then glanced at Mak'e before saying to Little Stone and Noster.

"That was the vision caused by the second breakthrough of the consummation realm of the Basic Body Forging Method, and it should be at that time that Erwazi gradually stepped into the sealing realm and his body began to change."

After the old mayor finished speaking, Nost and Little Stone both looked at Makuai, as if to ask if he was.

Mu Er glanced at the two of them and said to the old mayor: "That's right, grandpa the mayor, I broke through the sealing realm last night. ”

Looking at the old mayor who nodded slightly, Mu Er said in his heart that he was not lying.

Anyway, his cultivation did break through last night, and he did break through the basic body forging method, as for what the old mayor thinks, it's none of his business.

And the little stone sitting next to the brazier heard the answer, and his face, which had been slightly red from the charcoal fire, began to turn red rapidly, and his two hands kept scratching his head, and he was a little restless.

As for Noster, he was simply glad that the curtain was fine.

Fortunately, the old mayor didn't plan to let Mu Er and Xiaoshi stay longer, and waved his hand to the two of them and said, "Since it's okay, you two should go back quickly, it's not too late, don't let the adults in the family worry." ”

Hearing the old mayor's words, Xiao Shi's face was slightly happy, and he quickly stood up and said, "Yes! Daddy and Grandma are still waiting for me to come home for dinner. ”

"Goodbye Mayor Grandpa, Uncle Noster, and Little Er!"

"I'll go first!"

As the words fell, Little Stone instantly rushed out of the guardhouse.

"Bang!"

Looking at the door that made a loud noise because of the huge force, the corners of Mu E's mouth twitched slightly, and he looked at the vibrating door with deep eyes and thought.

Sample, can you run away with such a big oolong?

There is time to clean up the small stones, and now that the old mayor has issued an eviction order, it is better to go back and get a good treat for yourself first.

As for why the old mayor gave the order to expel the guests, such a secret is not something he can explore now.

After saying goodbye to the old mayor and Nost, Makuai stepped out of the guardhouse.

……

After both Makuai and Little Stone left, the old mayor pulled out something that resembled a compass to isolate the entire guardhouse.

Nost asked with a slight change in his face when he saw the old mayor's cautious behavior.

After making sure that the entire guard room was completely isolated, the old mayor breathed a sigh of relief, and his face instantly became flushed and he spat out a large mouthful of blood.

"Teacher!"

Nost was instantly frightened by the old mayor's actions, and subconsciously shouted, then took out a green card and said, "Life protection!" Three-leaf life-renewing grass! Respond to Morania's Pact! Continue! ”

As Noster's voice fell, the green cards turned into countless stars, and between the stars, a small green grass with three leaves appeared above the old mayor's head.

As the three leaves swayed, several life essences fell down and entered the old mayor's body.

After a few minutes or so, the three-leaf life-sustaining grass and the starlight in the room turned into green cards again.

Putting the card back in his body, Nost stepped forward and said to the old mayor, "Teacher, how are you feeling now?" ”

After the treatment of the clover grass, the old mayor's face, which had been slightly pale, was much more rosy.

He waved at Nost to signal that he was okay and asked him to sit down.

"Teacher, what happened in the Southern Mountains last night?" Nost sat down and said to the old mayor.

"Some of the minions of Doom Doom have been wiped out." The old mayor shook his head.

Nost knew that the minions of Doom Doom were not enough to hurt his teacher, and there must be something else.

Sure enough, the old mayor continued: "After eliminating those doom-level doomsday minions, I and other Taoist friends chased after the trail of the doomsday, and finally a few of us found the doomsday. ”

"That's the Frost Doomsday Projection of 0227, and we paid a huge price to destroy it."

After listening to the old mayor's words, Nost couldn't help frowning and asked, "Frost Doomsday No. 0227, is the Doomsday numbered?" ”

"I don't know very well, this is what the city lord of the Divine Desolate City said." The old mayor shook his head after thinking for a moment.

"The city lord of the Divine Desolate City is desolate one!" Nost exclaimed, and then said: "This is a giant at the overlord level in the Cloud Wilderness Territory, even if there is a doom-level doomsday projection, he shouldn't come in person!" ”

The old mayor sighed and said, "It's not the true body of the Desolate One, but a clone. ”

"And the desolation is not entirely for the apocalypse of the frost and snow of 0227, but to find out why there is a doomsday projection in the cloud desolation."

Noster's face had turned ugly when he heard the old mayor speak.

"Could it be that any living beings have taken refuge in the camp of Doom?"

The old mayor nodded with a solemn face and said, "That's a mysterious black-robed man. ”

"After we eliminated the 0227 Frost and Snow Doomsday Projection, he suddenly appeared and attacked us with the previous gray mist presence."

"Fortunately, the lord of the barren city brought the barren tower."

"But the strength of the black-robed figure and the gray mist is far beyond our imagination, even if the desolate city lord joins forces with us, he will fall into disadvantage."

"In the end, the Deserted Tower erupted and injured the Gray Mist Monster and repelled the black-robed man."

Recalling this, the old mayor still felt a little frightened.

Even in his heyday, he was at most about the same as the desolate doppelganger holding the desolate tower, and the strength of the black-robed man was far above him.

Nost could imagine how fierce the battle had been when he heard the old mayor's account, and he understood that the world, which seemed to have been quiet for less than a hundred years, was about to begin to be in chaos again.

After coming back to his senses, the old mayor sighed again: "The main purpose of my lockdown of the house is to worry that the existence of that gray fog has not gone far, after all, he has not been peeking at the divine gourd for a day or two. ”

"What then?" Nost asked.

The old mayor waved his hand and said, "Don't worry too much, he doesn't dare to think anything after he is injured without knowing my current condition."

"Tomorrow, you will go and select the qualified little ones in the town to go to the Wild Cloud Heavenly Palace."

Nost heard his teacher's instructions and understood that his teacher's condition was not as good as he had imagined.

Otherwise, he won't be allowed to leave tomorrow.

But his strength was low, he opened his mouth and finally said, "It's the teacher." ”

"Go get ready, I'll rest here for a while." The old mayor withdrew the compass that had blocked the space, closed his eyes, and nodded slightly to Noster.

Nost glanced at the old mayor, who seemed to be asleep, turned around, clenched his fists, and a look of pain flashed across his face.

Finally, he put down his fist, and all his strength seemed to be drained and walked out of the door.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, the old mayor opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Noster, sighed, and said, "Can't you get out yet?" That's Morania and Tinoaka's choice......"

Then I closed my eyes again and really started to rest.
