Lin Yuan's cheeks were blown by the cold night breeze. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Lin Yuan and Herasy rode together on the back of the wyvern, hovering endlessly in the sky.

Heras's wyverns couldn't hover in the air, so they could only continue to fly in small motions, hovering back and forth over Tree City.

There was not a single glimmer of light in the vast uninhabited city below, and only the three moons that glowed from the sky could only illuminate the shadows here, and in the dimness it was still difficult to see, and normally nothing could be seen.

However, Lin Yuan did not have this problem.

The whites of his eyes turned dark as he looked down at the landscape below.

The magic of the Void Eye not only gave him the ability to see through life and souls, but also gave him dark vision, able to see the scene in the night, and what he saw in his eyes was as clear as the day.

Moreover, these magic eyes can also see the magic reaction and the traces left behind by it, as long as there is a little evidence left, Lin Yuan is very confident that he can find it.

"Sure enough, there are no other living people......"

Except for Pang Heng and the three of them walking in the tree city, Lin Yuan couldn't see any other traces of living life.

Lin Yuan turned his eyes to the area outside the city, contemplating to see if there were any other life reactions.

"Sure enough, there is still nothing......"

Lin Yuan did not lose patience and continued to inspect every place.

Tree City is a very large city with complicated roads, and Lin Yuan can easily see that the city is obviously expanding outward.

The cities of the wizarding world all have similar traces, because to avoid the attack of monsters, the population is concentrated in the same place, and when the population of the city grows, it will inevitably expand to the surrounding areas, and the original roads will be more complicated, and there will even be several layers of walls to surround it.

"Where the hell is it?"

In Lin Yuan's eyes, there was an obvious magic reaction on the walls of Tree City, as well as in a few places, but he knew that this was not the target he wanted to find.

Before starting the search, Pang Heng briefly explained the magic protection system that Tree City possessed.

The tree city was built by using Pang Heng's power.

In other words, it is the power of the tree that is "planted".

The walls of Tree City are not wooden walls, but living "tree walls".

Although it sounds a bit like a fantasy, this kind of thing can be done with the power that Pang Heng has.

Pang Heng was able to control the direction in which the tree grew and the shape it eventually formed, and he used his power to "plant" a city out of thin air from above the flat ground.

Most of the buildings in Tree City are made in this way, and because they are influenced by the power of the powerful, these trees contain a certain amount of magical power, and they will become very strong, and they will not decay easily, and the flames will not ignite them.

However, all of this must be premised on Pang Heng being in the city.

Once Pang Heng leaves Tree City, it means that the source of the magic that supports this place has been lost, and the city's defense power will be greatly reduced, just like the fire that happened not long ago, it can be very simple to lead half of the city that is made of wood into the sea of fire.

"Why do you have the confidence to find out in this city?"

Heras's voice rang out in the headwind.

"Faith? How could I possibly have faith. ”

Lin Yuan replied a little inarticulately, his nose was a little tickled by the wind, and he almost sneezed.

"I just don't feel at ease, what if it's not the humans themselves who kill all the inhabitants here, but some kind of strategic magic item? ”

"Looks like you're pretty sure there's no enemy nearby?"

"If there really is an enemy, then we should encounter it immediately, of course, there are other possibilities, but judging by the probability, there must be something that caused the situation here. ”

Herass suddenly raised her head, her sharp gaze looking into the distance.

"What's wrong?

Lin Yuan noticed Herasi's movements and hurriedly asked.

"No, it's not an enemy," Heras's tense body relaxed, "it's your ghoul, those monsters have come nearby." ”

"What did I think it was......"

Lin Yuan looked in the direction that Hera was looking at, and unexpectedly saw the figure of the ghoul approaching quickly.

"By the way, it would be better to send them to inspect them together than just three people in the city. ”

Under Lin Yuan's order, Pang Heng and the three of them searched every place in the city, but after all, there were only three of them, and it was very likely that they would not find anything if they found the old man of the heavens and the earth.

"As much as I think you already know, and probably don't care, I'll start with it here. ”

Heras suddenly spoke in a serious tone.

"Take care of your corpse-eating monsters, and don't let them eat the corpses of the city's inhabitants casually...... Of course, if you are not afraid of what Pang Heng will do to you at all. ”

Lin Yuan laughed.

"Are you worried about me?"

"I'm worried about whether you're going to do anything to the corpses of the city's residents. Heras said without looking back.

Lin Yuan didn't expect that the other party would guess what he was thinking.

"Do you know anything?"

"If you don't want me to know, don't open your strange broken book so generously," Heras, who didn't know why, said in a hurried tone, "I don't think I can read the words, but...... I still get it. ”

"So you saw it? In the magic book are all the magic that I can use, so, Heras, which magic do you see?"

Lin Yuan's leisurely tone made Hera very uncomfortable.

"I would love to see nothing...... Lin Yuan, don't play with the dead casually. ”

"Well, my advice, I'll take it to heart. ”

Lin Yuan smiled.

"Don't worry, I won't be so reckless, the people here are always the citizens guarded by Pang Heng, I still need his strength, and I won't do it casually. ”

"That means that as long as you're not from here, you can do it?" said Heras, frowning.

"Why can't you? Now that you're dead, can't you let me recycle it?"

Lin Yuan's expected reply was just as Herass expected.

"I won't talk about that now, come, let's go to the ghouls, and I'm going to give them orders. ”

Later, under Lin Yuan's command, the ghouls joined the search in the city.

Lin Yuan found Pang Heng and the others in advance and informed them about the ghouls entering the city to avoid some unnecessary misunderstandings.

Time did not pass, and when it was almost midnight, the search was temporarily stopped, and the ghouls could force them not to rest, but Heras and the others would still feel tired.

"I didn't find it at all......" Lin Yuan yawned.

Lin Yuan and the others searched out some food from the houses, and were eating supper in a private house, and no one would blame them for their behavior in this city, where no one was alive.

"Forget it, let's come back tomorrow. Lin Yuan said as he swallowed the bread.

The others have no opinion, it's not early, and they also need a break.

Twitter!

Just as Lin Yuan was about to leave, a ghoul's shrill cry came from outside the house.

"Huh?"

Lin Yuan unfolded a bright smile.

"The ghoul has found something interesting, let's get over there!"

Lin Yuan couldn't help but say, and immediately took a step.

Heras and the others were stunned for a moment, and they also followed.

Led by ghouls, they made their way through block after block to the heart of the city.

Many of the nearby areas were affected by the fire, houses burned to rubble, and charred corpses huddled on the side of the road, emitting an unpleasant stench of burning.

Lin Yuan hummed a light song all the way, as if he regarded the nearby scene as nothing.

"Right here. Lin Yuan stood in front of a grocery store.

The door of the grocery store had long been destroyed by ghouls, and Lin Yuan strode in and continued to move deeper.

Lin Yuan saw several ghouls entrenched in front of a door leading to the basement, and he looked at the dark dungeon that had been opened.

"There are some things in there that you must take a look at," Lin Yuan nodded with his chin to the basement in front of him, "But Rona is forbidden to enter, you must not come in, pregnant women should not look at that kind of thing." ”

“...... What's inside?" Rhona looked at the dark place with some uneasiness.

"Well...... Lin Yuan's eyes rolled, "Anyway, it's right that you don't want to go in, I really said this for your sake." ”

Lin Yuan waved his hand away from all the ghouls, he reached out and took Rhona's lantern and walked down first.

Due to Lin Yuan's repeated warnings, Rona could only watch the others enter the basement together.

Sauls turned back to his wife with a reassuring smile and instructed her not to worry too much.

Lin Yuan stepped over the stairs in a few steps and came to the basement, where he held the lantern high and let the light shine on the surroundings.

A putrid smell came into his nasal cavity, and Lin Yuan exhaled several breaths in a row, but he couldn't get rid of this smell.

The light of the lantern illuminates the environment of the basement, and the small basement has no other entrances and exits, and there is no more space.

Lin Yuan immediately discovered his target.

“...... It's a masterpiece. ”

Lin Yuan sighed and looked at the things placed in the center of the basement.

"Oh my God......"

Thor saw the thing and shuddered and took a few steps back.

"This ...... What the hell is this!"

Herass covered her mouth and nose in disgust, and the stench of the basement was unbearable.

Pang Hengtie was bruised, and it was hard to believe that such a thing existed in his city.

"This is the so-called human stick, right?"

Lin Yuan gradually got used to the smell here, and his eyes lit up as he approached the object in the center.

"Or should I say he's human?"

It is a humanoid object that is not humanoid.

There was not a single hair on his body, his limbs were cut off at the roots, there were no eyeballs in his hollow eye sockets, his left and right ears were absent, his nose had been shad off, there was no place to call his lips, and not a single tooth could be seen.

Lin Yuan observed carefully and found that the inside of this thing's mouth and tongue had been cut off.

"Is this your interest in the city?" Lin Yuan asked when he turned back to Pang Heng, whose face was dark.

“...... Please stop kidding. Pang Heng said in a hoarse voice.

Lin Yuan didn't say any more superfluous words in a funny way.

"This is the thing," Lin Yuan cast the Void Spirit Demon Eye, clearly seeing the traces of magic left here, "This is the thing that caused the people in the city to die." ”

Pang Heng didn't have any expression on his face.

“...... This man, he is the one who is in power. ”

"That's right, the Mighty who just died. ”

Lin Yuan, who understood this mechanism, kept nodding.

"The loss of control of power, the explosion of power, is to use this person's death to cause all the residents of the city to die, ha, it's really quite a magical self-detonating bomb. ”

"But...... What kind of power is this?" Sauls endured the discomfort and set his eyes on what was originally a human object, "the power to make people kill themselves...... What the hell is ......?"

Sauls choked suddenly.

His eyes widened in horror, and his hands froze in mid-air.

"Huh, did you find anything?"

Lin Yuan saw Sols's expression and couldn't help but ask.

"The power to commit suicide...... That's right...... It's really similar to that...... Ahem......"

Breathing unconsciously heavily, Sauls inhaled the smell of the basement, causing him to cough violently several times.

"Sols, what is it?" asked the expressionless Pang Heng in a low voice.

Sauls looked uncomfortably into the center of the basement.

"It's ...... I've seen it once...... The power ...... called 'Despair'"
