Chapter 1812
"Twin Cities Lake is ahead."
An overland cart drove through the wilderness, Paradise Lost in the darkness of night, with two moons hanging in the night. One is deep purple, the other is red, and the two moons are intertwined, creating a magnificent moonlight in the night sky. Under the dreamlike moonlight, a large lake could be seen in the distance. The water of the lake reflects the night sky, and at both ends of the lake, you can see two minarets rising above the water.
Alan asked, "Why isn't it called Twin Towers Lake?" ”
Barrow replied, "Once upon a time, there were two castles there, and they were built in a symmetrical way. There are two brothers living in the Twin Cities, who were originally a pair of brothers who lived in harmony, but because of some trivial things, they had a dispute and even started a war. A great battle caused the sea to pour in, flooding the castle and drowning countless living beings. Eventually, it became a lake, so we all called it Twin Cities Lake. The two towers you see now are the ruins of the Twin Cities of yesteryear. ”
Alan let out an "oh" and said, "Our guide lives in such a remote place? ”
"That guy doesn't like to be busy, so he lives here, but I promise he's definitely the best person to go to Bo Sun, because that's where he escaped."
The overland vehicle sped through the wilderness in the darkness of night, approaching a section of the shore of a lake, stopping in front of a building on the shore. It is a spherical building, with a smooth surface and no windows. There was only a dark and secluded door, and a huge black shadow rushed out of the gate, a beast like a lion. Old man Barrow got down from the land cart and was immediately pounced on by the beast, and Alan immediately stretched out his hand to the giant sword, but heard Barrow shout: "It's okay, this is his dog, very obedient." Oooh, don't lick. My face, damn it, your saliva stinks! ”
Sure enough, the lion-like beast didn't attack Barrow, it just messed around. Licking his face, a whistle rang out in the building, and the thing ran back. Out of the room came a figure, a dog that was too big and wagging its tail vigorously at the man's feet.
"Barrow? What are you doing at such a late hour, do you want to make a new wine for me to taste, and honestly your stuff is hard to drink, so don't come to harm me. He stepped out of the shadows under the gate, and in the moonlight was a humanoid alien. He looked like a human man in his twenties, with gray-blue hair, grayish-blue skin and grayish-blue skin that appeared in the same shade as his hair, with pale blue scales appearing in the bare areas.
"What do you know, Brother Luo, you don't know the art of bartending at all." Barrow shouted, jumped up from the ground, and then said to the alien named Brother Luo, "Business is coming, these adults are going to a place, I don't know if you dare to take them there." ”
Brother Luo took something out of the bag around his waist and threw it on the ground, and the poodle fell to the ground and licked it, and he laughed: "Don't use the radical method, as long as I have money, I dare to go anywhere." ”
"Then I'll give you a promise." Barrow blinked, "They're going to the Thin Sun Star, and the reward is two hundred Abyss Crystals." ”
"What?" Brother Luo immediately jumped up, "Thin Sun Star? Are they disgusted with longevity or something, not going to go...... Wait, how many crystals did you just say? ”
"Two hundred, I've seen the goods, it's the finest abyss crystal. Two hundred crystals is enough for you to drink day and night in my shop for ten years! ”
"I don't drink the wine you concocted, two hundred yuan, I think about it." Brother Luo paced back and forth and said, "That damn place, I swear I'll never go back." That's fine, add another hundred. Add another hundred and I'll go, and I won't pull it down. ”
Alan didn't think about it, nodded and said, "Deal." ”
Then the spatial ring flickered, and the abyss crystal was poured out of it. A full three hundred Abyssal Crystals were stacked on top of each other, glowing as if magical under the twin moons of Paradise Lost. Barrow took out his deposit of ten crystals and muttered, "This lord is so generous, he paid all the money before he went." But Brother Luo, I can remind you, remember to do things after receiving money from adults. Otherwise, you won't end well. ”
Brother Luo laughed: "Don't worry, I still have a bit of a reputation." Barrow, I can't put so many crystals here, you save them for me. If I come back, buy me a piece of land on the outskirts of Wudu. If you don't come back, these crystals will be given to you. ”
Barrow was stunned: "I heard you right, is this still you, Brother Luo?"
Brother Luo smiled, "I haven't forgotten how you helped me back then, old fellow. Friendship is the cheapest thing on the planet, but it's worth a bit in my eyes. Besides, I'm just saying that if I can escape back there once, I can run back a second time! ”
Alan said: "Before we go, can you tell us about Bo Rixing, we need to know a little more." ”
"You do need to know, but before you do, you have to tell me where on that planet you're going?"
Alan looked at Simir, who shrugged his shoulders and said, "Actually, we don't know exactly where it is. Just know that what we're looking for is on that planet. ”
Luo Ge smiled bitterly: "You should stay on that planet for a while, damn it, I know that three hundred abyss crystals are not so easy to earn." ”
"It's three hundred and ten!" Barrow corrected.
"Come in and talk, or go back to the fog?" Brother Luo asked.
"Since they are all here, they are the same wherever they talk. We've got to get ready to go, just say it to you. Alan made his way to the gate.
Barrow wanted to return to the fog capital, and Loya asked him to prepare some necessary tools for him, there were many things that even Himir had never heard of, but they were all necessary things on the Thin Sun Star. When I walked into Luo Ge's room, I realized that it was very simple, but the circular sphere building made the space surprisingly ample and not cramped at all.
Sitting down in a few chairs in the room that were not exquisite, but quite comfortable, Luo Ge looked at Alan and said, "Let me think about it, where to start?" Well, let's talk about the damn normalcy of this planet. According to the time, there are still more than 30 days left before the Thin Sun Star will enter the polar day, that is, we will stay there for about 30 days at most. It's worth noting that the day on that planet is only fifteen hours, so when that translates, we won't have much time. ”
"It's the polar night, and the temperature on the planet's surface is about minus 80 degrees Celsius during the polar night. Trust me, it's not going to be a pleasant environment. You just have to stop for a moment and you'll be covered by the wind and snow. If you pee on the vent, you will be frozen into ice sculptures by your own urine. One of the things to do there is to keep your body temperature up, to keep it at all times, otherwise you won't be able to sleep for a long time......"
At the end of the day, the planet's surface is so high that the glaciers melt away in just a few days, and the ice fields turn into deserts, with the flames being the masters of the planet. No life can survive in hundreds of degrees of heat, except for some extraordinarily tenacious life deep underground. But it is not the harsh environment of the planet that really makes the planet a dangerous area, the real danger of that planet comes from the gold diggers, from various power organizations, and from the tenacious life that lives under the planet.
In the Fania Field, people call those beings Kabro, which means the shadow of hell in the lingua franca of the Fania Field.
"Those...... Cabro? What do they look like? Alan asked, always feeling that the name of Cablo was a little awkward.
"You can call them Shadow Demons, Lord of Shadows, Shadow Monsters...... Whatever you like, Cablo is already a very old name. "Let's call them Shadow Demons for now, these beings are similar to energy beings, but they have flesh and blood. Core, the opposite of most other lifeforms. We all know that those advanced beings form the core of the energy aggregate in the flesh and blood, but the Shadow Demon is the complete opposite. Their bodies are a shadow, they can be huge or tiny, but no matter how their body shape changes, flesh and blood. But the core is constant. The core is their only weakness, so they will use shadows to cover it up in any way possible. They live deep underneath the planet all year round, but can also move on the planet's surface during the polar night season. Ice, snow, shadows, and darkness are their home turf, and during the polar night season, they are everywhere. ”
"There is a precious vein on the Thin Sun Star, Shadow Iron. It is the main food of the Shadow Demons, and digging this vein is equivalent to grabbing food from the Shadow Demons' rice bowls, so these underground creatures are extremely hateful to outsiders, which leads to constant wars between the Gold Diggers and the Shadow Creatures. Although the Gold Diggers are presided over by big corporations and powerful organizations, the Shadow Demons are very difficult to kill, on the contrary, they are numerous. So all along, it has been the Nuggets who have been at a disadvantage, which has led to the high price of Shadow Iron in the market, which in turn has spurred more Nuggets to venture to the Thin Sun Star. ”
"So you see, this is the place you're going to. It has a harsh environment, and there are dangerous elements such as the Gold Digger Organization and the Shadow Demon. As much as I love those beautiful crystals, if you're going to regret it, I can ask Barrow to give you the full amount of the crystal. ”
Alan glanced at everyone, since the polar secret map pointed to such a place, it was necessary to go and see it. And it sounds like those so-called shadow demons are a bit like the treasury army, who can guarantee that there is not a treasure trove under the earth of the Thin Sun Star?
"No, we're going. And rest assured, Mr. Lorgo, I will keep you safe. Alan said in a deep voice.
Brother Luo shook his head, he didn't think a stranger could keep him safe. And, rather than putting his life in the hands of a stranger, Brother Lo believed in himself more.
Suddenly, a loudspeaker voice rang out from outside the house: "The stranger who killed one of our captains, get out of here now!" Otherwise, we will kill everyone in this house indiscriminately! ”
Alan let out a sneer from under the mask, now few people really dare to tell him to "get out", but Brother Luo was taken aback: "It's the one who is extremely evil." ”
