Chapter 54: Back to the City

The small light man in the critical dimension slowly faded, and a small oval space-time portal appeared out of thin air on the rocky cliffs of the red Gobi.

A dazzling spot of light teleported out of the portal, and countless lines of law surrounded the spot, outlining a human figure in the void. Immediately, in this humanoid form composed of light spots and lines, skeletons and flesh began to grow, and in the blink of an eye, a young man with black hair and black eyes appeared in place.

The rolling heat wave around him made Qin Lun frown, he was used to the humid and refreshing plum rain climate in the Odia Mountains, and the hot weather of the Red Gobi made him feel very uncomfortable.

He looked at his palms with burning eyes, and there was an indelible look of admiration on his face. Although the constitution of the Dharma Body is only instantaneous, the whole process can still be observed by the awake consciousness. Except for the day he first entered the shattered starry sky, this was the second time he had seen the process of body formation.

Putting down his palm, Qin Lun turned his head to look around, as he expected, there was no second creature on the rocky cliff. Unlike the Otherworld, the indigenous creatures here are aware of the apostle's existence and will not avoid other creatures when the apostle returns.

At the Ifrit Boguang Academy, the elves responsible for teaching the apostles had reminded them again and again. If you are not willing to entrust your life to others, then when you enter the other world, you must find a safe and remote place to teleport in time and space.

Qin Lun took two steps, leaned down and took out a small backpack from a rock crevice, which was some of his belongings, because he couldn't bring them into the other world, he had to hide here.

Opening the backpack, Qin Lun took out an hourglass the size of a thumb, this thing basically has one for every preparatory apostle, and it is the basic benefit issued by the elven city-Moonlight Forest to the preparatory apostle.

Each flip of the hourglass represents two hours, with some nicks at the bottom. Under the role of the internal organization, a small tick will jump up every day, and the time period from minute to month can be recorded more accurately. However, you have to adjust the scoring every month, otherwise you won't be able to start it again.

In fact, this hourglass of the elves is also famous in the floating cities of other intelligent races. Although many high-tech cities have invented clocks, light-speed timers, and even elemental decay timers, this hourglass still has an irreplaceable role.

Due to the large variety and size of the Hanging Continent, the high-tech timers of other races are very limited. Technologically advanced timers work well on one continent, but not necessarily on others. On the contrary, this hourglass of the elven race is very accurate no matter what continent, and it is small in size and easy to carry.

The hourglass showed that he had only been away from the Shattered Sky for about an hour, which was in line with the common sense taught by the Academy. Putting the hourglass back in his backpack, Qin Lun took out a monocular again and brought it to his eyes, looking at the stone cliff where the locomotive was stored opposite.

"Huh?" Looking at the scene in the telescope, Qin Lun was slightly surprised.

The four-wheeled black locomotive was parked intact in the shadow of the stone cliff, but there were four humanoids in hooded cloaks around it, hiding behind the rocks, faintly enclosing the place where the locomotive was.

The sharp knives and magic bullet guns in their hands were obviously intended to give Qin Lun a special "surprise".

Qin Lun put down the binoculars, touched his chin, and fell into deep thought. Since these people surrounded the locomotive and ambushed him, they must have known that he was an apostle. Strange in this way, he was only one hour away from the Shattered Starry Sky......

Indigenous creatures passing by? Or is there another reason? In any case, Qin Lun didn't plan to show up, although he had undergone a reinforcement, the increase should not have a earth-shaking impact. Moreover, this kind of power, which has not yet been trained and proven, cannot be turned into combat power for the time being, and it is not worth gambling for a locomotive.

Pulling open the package, Qin Lun picked out a button-shaped item from inside, which was the soul stance issued by the Moonlight Forest to the Preparatory Apostle. Not only can it be used to communicate with indigenous creatures, but it also has a tracker attached to it, and as soon as it is activated, the patrols of the Moonlight Forest will come out to find the Apostle.

The elves of the Moonlight Forest did not hide the existence of the tracker from the apostles, and the trackers were not intended to control the apostles, but to help the apostles who had returned from the other world.

Not all Apostles will be able to successfully complete Atlas missions, and many may fail missions and be seriously injured. There is no broken crystal to repair the law body, and there is no way to return to the Moonlight Forest by itself. At this point, the tracker will be able to summon the patrols of the floating city, and thus rescue them back to the city.

Qin Lun pressed the start button on the button, and then continued to pick up the monoculars and monitor the four "hooded bandits". It's just over half an hour's drive from the Moonlight Forest, and the elven patrol will be looking for it soon.

After about half an hour, Qin Lun's heart suddenly moved, and he turned his head to look at the left side of the rocky cliff, only to see a dust dragon faintly rising in the distance of the Gobi, and it was accompanied by a soft and muffled sound of "rumbling".

The sound of horses' hooves...... The patrol of the Moonlight Forest is here! A smile appeared on the corner of Qin Lun's mouth, and he turned his head and continued to observe the four people.

The four "hooded bandits" who were lying in ambush around the locomotive apparently also heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and immediately jumped up like rabbits. They went around to the back of the cliff, rolled out two locomotives, jumped on them and left.

It turned out to be really just a passing "scavenger", and not a premeditated plan by other apostles! The expression on Qin Lun's face was a little weird, the first time he carried out an otherworldly mission, he encountered this kind of small probability event, what kind of shit luck was this......

"I'm sorry for you!" Qin Lun climbed down from the cliff and walked towards the elven guards with a smile.

"Are you alright?" The leader of the Elven Guard is a female elf with short hair.

The female elf has a slender figure, black hair and blue eyes, a healthy wheat complexion, and a small butterfly hairpin clips the bangs at the corners of her forehead, looking energetic. A pair of big blue eyes looked curiously at the young man in front of him.

"You seem to have just returned from the Atlas, and it was because of those scavengers that you summoned us?" A middle-aged elf beside the female elf looked at a few small black dots in the distance, revealing a hint of vigilance.

"Well, thank you, can I go back to the city with you?" Qin Lun nodded politely.

"I'm Aska, the leader of the Third Patrol, and she's my deputy, Adeline Moria." The middle-aged elf took off his helmet, leaned slightly over the unicorn, and asked in a friendly manner, "What do you call you, honorable apostle!" ”

"Please call me Qin Lun!" Qin Lun picked up the small package and started the locomotive.

……

"You are Qin Lun!" On the way back, Adeline approached Qin Lun's side and asked curiously.

"Well, are you a member of the Moria family?" Qin Lun smiled and asked, "Marfa Moria is your brother?" ”

"No, he's my father!" Adeline frowned and said dissatisfiedly, "It's because my father is so optimistic about you, there are only four scavengers, don't you dare to fight them?" ”

Father? Qin Lun smiled bitterly and shook his head, the elves are really blessed. The handsome silver-haired elf looked no different from a young man in his twenties, and he already had such a heroic daughter.

"Before the apostle grew up, he was also just an ordinary person, and I am not stronger than you!" Qin Lun didn't mind Adeline's contempt, "Is Marfa in the Moonlight Forest?" ”

"No, my father just opened the Starry Sky Gate in Guò City and teleported to another elf city!" A hint of worry appeared on Adeline's face, "When all the apostles who went out this time return, the Moonlight Forest will soon leave the Red Gobi." ”

There were other apostles who went out on otherworldly missions...... Qin Lun's eyes flashed, and he asked with a smile, "Have those companions who were with me come back from the other world now?" ”

"I didn't see the other three, but judging by the time, it's about the same!" Adeline said absentmindedly.

Qin Lun nodded silently, judging from Adeline's words, the elven clan should be in trouble and is shrinking its forces. However, he didn't pay attention to the troubles of the elves, the Moonlight Forest was gone, and he could change to a floating city as a habitat at most.

The killer cared about the other three, the apostles who had been on otherworldly missions around the same time as him. There are more than 100 apostles in the Moonlight Forest, and most of them are preparatory apostles, except for a few official apostles.

It's not that it's impossible for someone to carry out an otherworldly mission at the same time as him, but this probability is very small, after all, the time to spend an otherworldly mission is only equivalent to an hour in the shattered starry sky.

In this way, the information that Adeline inadvertently revealed was very likely to be a few other killers on an otherworldly mission, after all, they entered the Shattered Starry Sky at the same time as Qin Lun, and the time was just right.

"Hehe, the shorter the interval between otherworldly missions, the greater the potential of the apostle!" A strange light flashed in Qin Lun's eyes, and he lowered his head and muttered to himself, "It's really interesting, I just don't know which of the five people is outdated!" ”

"What?" Adeline asked, turning her head strangely.

"Nothing!" Qin Lun narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a charming smile.

He had a hunch that the three people other than him should also be from the five major murderers. (Disciple Hansen, Shepherd Hill, Grant the Clown, Fireworks Rand, Joey the Dissecter)

Half an hour later, they saw the massive Moonlight Forest. Qin Lun handed over the locomotive to the elven guards, and the locomotive was not allowed to pass in the Moonlight Forest, and could only be stored in the zài elves.

Returning to the small wooden building in Moonlight Town, Qin Lun found that the little goblet Brindidi was not in the room, so he moved upstairs and immersed his consciousness into the death list.

As the Shattered Sky opened up more and more content, the initial revamped death list slowly lost track of it. He needs to see more and combine this information to continue to transform the death list.
