Chapter 182: The City of the Dead.
"Don't touch it with your hands, although the protective layer can block the dead air of the underworld, but if you touch it at zero distance, the protective layer will not be able to attach to your hands."
"IāI didn't want to touch it." Tang Meng's face flushed, and she secretly withdrew the little hand that she was about to stretch out, she originally wanted to try to see if she could pull this grass down, after all, it didn't seem to be dangerous: "These grasses are very curious, they can grow in the underworld." ā
When Wang Chen heard this, he also lowered his head and looked at the grass, these withered yellow grasses were clustered one by one, just like ordinary grass in winter, although it looked like it could be turned into powder by blowing dry, but in fact it was difficult to be destroyed, it was one of the plants unique to the underworld, the spirit grass.
"It's really peculiar, I just don't know what the use of this grass is, it's so dead...... And it can survive in the underworld. "That being said, but seeing that the mountains are full of weeds, it is obviously not of great use.
Just when the two figures, one big and one small, were observing the grass, Liu Bin couldn't bear it, he walked over quickly and swiped the dagger, and the gray and black blade magically cut the grass from the root, and dragged it up very casually and handed it to Wang Chen: "I said two, we are not here for sightseeing." I'm expecting to be in the Capital of the Dead in two hours to deliver the mission. ā
With a chill in his hand, he took over the dead spirit grass, Wang Chen subconsciously used the dark energy to isolate the invasion of the dead qi, and nodded indifferently and said, "Well, then let's go first." ā
Saying that, the three of them continued to move forward, Liu Bin is not a little familiar with the underworld, he seems to have specially purchased the information and map of the underworld, and found a shortcut to the capital of the dead on the barren plain in less than two minutes, then again, this broken place is not an ordinary dead silence, not to mention creatures along the way, not even an undead, only a few ruins occasionally encountered can prove that they are still advancing.
Time flew by in a hurry, and about an hour, Wang Chen finally saw the palace suspended in the sky in the distance, and the sense of grandeur was many thousand times stronger than the monastery in the chaotic land! Just by watching it gradually reveal its whole body in the dense fog from a distance, you can feel that it is as small as an ant, except for the giant floating hall in the middle that is comparable to the size of a city, and if you look closely, you can find that there are many 'small' floating islands around, with ghosts, many strange monsters, and even many temples of the gods of the underworld!
I want to come to the giant floating hall in the middle, which is the palace of Hades and his wife, the queen of the underworld, it's really big! I guess it's not much better than the Olympus temple where the gods of Olympus live.
When he was still a few kilometers away from the City of the Dead, Liu Bin stopped: "Wang Chen, you wait around here for a while, the City of the Dead is relatively tightly controlled, and ordinary people can't enter at all, if you are seen by the underworld, it will be a big trouble." ā
Wang Chen looked at the ghosts surrounding the palace like flying insects, and asked in a low voice, "How long will it take you to come out?" ā
"I'm not sure, if it goes well, I'll just hand in a task, if it doesn't go well, I probably have to finish my own business before I can come out" Liu Bin scratched his head, groaned, and pointed to the west side of the capital of the undead: "There is a sea of bones about ten kilometers away from here, which is similar to the sea of bones we passed before, but some of the skeletons have been resurrected due to the undead and death, killing them can earn survival points and experience points, it is a good place to farm monsters, you can go there and wait for me first." Anyway, the broken place is rarely patrolled, and it is a good place to fight monsters and hide. ā
"Well, I'll wait for you in the Sea of Skull Bones, I wish you all the best." Wang Chen patted him on the shoulder, the two smiled tacitly, didn't say anything, and then went in two different directions.
On the way, because they couldn't fly, the two could only walk on the barren path, Wang Chen took the spirit grass and injected dark energy to look through the research, while Tang Meng actively turned left and right, and stuck out his little tongue at Wang Chen with his little hand behind his back and muttered: "Wang Chen, are we really going to the Sea of Bones?" Those skeletons are so disgusting, can you change places? ā
"No, I've already made an appointment where to meet, and don't dislike it, compared to some dungeon monsters, skeletons are already quite normal." Wang Chen grinned, which of the zombies, lickers, tyrants, and monsters in the forest hut was not more disgusting and terrifying than skeletons? He slashed all those monsters in the novice dungeon, what else is there to be afraid of such a thing as skeletons?
For him, who has slain dragons, even if the undead bone dragon appears in front of him...... Cut it right!
After all, he was already used to killing, and in just a few months after entering the reincarnation space, he was used to this kind of high-intensity killing. I have to say that human beings are worthy of being super adaptable creatures.
"Tang Meng, why were you so silent just now? Without even saying a word, I thought you were too dead because of the underworld. ā
"Huh? Have it? Tang Meng was stunned for a moment, blinked his eyes and thought about it: "I just don't want to talk to that dagger man, I feel annoyed when I look at him, more annoying than that frost girl, so I'm not in the mood to talk." ā
"Uh, is it......" Wang Chen was speechless for a while, and touched her little head: "You are too recognizable." Didn't you talk very little when you first met me? It's okay to say a few more words, and the challengers aren't all bad guys, like me. ā
Tang Meng gave him a blank look: "Nonsense, you're a villain!" ā
"What do you mean by that?"
"A bad guy is a bad guy!" Tang Meng smiled and pursed her lips, and her white skirt fluttered in the wind.
Wang Chen also smiled and spread his hands: "I'm a bad guy, and you still talk to me so much?" ā
"I just want to talk, you care about me."
āā¦ā¦ā
The two chatted all the way, all the way forward, although the underworld was lifeless, but in a relaxed conversation, they soon arrived at the sea of skeletons, the environment here is no different from the previous sea of bones, there are dry bones everywhere, the only difference is that above the bones, there are many groups of skeletons swaying around in the mist.
These skeleton soldiers, boundless above the huge sea of bones, there are at least tens of millions of them as far as the eye can see, fortunately they are all gathered in groups of hundreds, and they have no sense of teamwork, they will only resist when they are attacked, otherwise I am afraid that the lower gods will have to turn around and run away when they see them.
The skeleton soldiers' bones are crystal clear, the skeleton is surrounded by a faint death, and in the two deeply sunken eye sockets, there is a beating green soul fire, their white five fingers clenching weapons such as bone knives or bone axes, leaning forward, dragging sharp tools and walking around the sea of bones step by step, the sound of bones and blades rubbing against each other is endless.
