Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Sulman Barrier

"Who is it?" After hearing the little girl's singing, the first to rush out was indeed the Minotaur Sangu, who was not very bright-headed, and he jumped suddenly to the side of a ruined wall buried by the grass, and it was from here that the song sounded.

Warren and the others also stood up, picked up their weapons, and all looked at the position where Sangu was standing, and in the midst of the noise, the knights stood in defensive formation, holding their swords high, holding shields, and waiting for the appearance of the unknown enemy.

After the two sisters, Nilou, Zana and Succubus, stood up silently, Wang Xu also stood up silently, and then, he put away the rosewood Taishi chair behind him, and patted the troll lord Squall's shoulder, telling him to stand up quickly, and after Skoll also stood up, Wang Xu put away the yellow rosewood drum stool that Skaul had just sat on, and then, he also looked at Sangu not far away.

"Poof!", the senior swordsman Downs drew his sword and ran to Sangu's side, their eyes always scanning the surrounding grass and trees, and they carefully searched for the little girl who was singing.

Warren commanded the knights, step by step, approaching the ruined wall, and at that moment, the little girl's song came again: "Blood is boiling, flesh is rotting, bones are rotting, soul is broken......"

This time, the song sounded in the distance at the edge of a staircase covered with patches of green moss, behind the ruined wall, covered in a withered yellow bush.

The group turned their heads to look at the staircase, where there was no one except for a broken and tattered yellow granite staircase, and a small domed pavilion with a broken roof on the staircase.

Just as Sangu and Tang Si took a step and were about to take a look at the small pavilion, Wang Xu suddenly shouted at the two of them: "Slow down, be careful!"

After hearing Wang Xu's low roar, the two turned their heads at the same time and saw Wang Xu's eyes on the two of them, and then the two retracted the steps they had taken, and continued to stand in place, carefully observing the surroundings.

There was a muffled sound of "buzzing ......", much like the sound of a swarm of wasps flying by, and I saw that a purple mist, twisted, swept towards Sangu and Downs, Sangu the Minotaur picked up his sharp axe, and Downs slashed at the mist that swept towards them together.

However, the mist is invisible, and the attack of the two Sangu has no effect on the invisible mist, when the weapons of the two of them come into contact with the mist, the mist is not dispersed at all, but swept towards the two of them more quickly, and in an instant, the purple mist enveloped the two of them.

"Dang, dang!" Two crisp sounds, the weapons of the Minotaur Sangu and the high-ranking swordsman Tang Si fell heavily to the ground, shattering several pieces of bluestone on the ground that were already broken.

Then, "Bang, bang!" again, Sangu and Downs, convulsing, fell straight to the ground, crushing a low bush beside them.

"Bring the face towels I gave you, don't breathe hard, be careful of the purple smoke, that smoke may be poisonous!" Wang Xu first roared at the people around him, and then, he took out a brand new black face towel from his backpack system and handed it to Nilou, the only one who did not have a face toll, and then, he suddenly disappeared in place, and with a teleportation, he suddenly appeared next to the purple smoke.

Casually used a water system magic - water column technique, Wang Xu controlled the water column more than one person high, surrounded the purple smoke in the middle, and then, he let the water column explode from the middle, only to see that a large wall of water, from all directions, without dead ends, "Boom!" covered the purple smoke, so that the purple smoke had nowhere to escape.

In an instant, all the purple smoke was covered by the wall of water, and at the same time, the fallen wall of water also poured water on Sangu and Tangs, who were lying on the ground, but something strange happened, Sangu and Tangs, who were slammed by the heavy wall of water, not only did not wake up, but continued to roll their eyes and twitch on the ground.

Just when Wang Xu looked down at the two poor people like chickens under his feet, and frowned and analyzed what kind of poison they had been in, Warren and the others all gathered around, and out of curiosity, the knights all scrambled to see what happened to those two people, so their defensive formations were loosened.

At this moment, there was another purple mist, which came out of nowhere, and in an instant, it enveloped everyone, this time, thanks to Wang Xu's black scarf, no one was poisoned by the purple smoke, only the knights were a little flustered.

Soon, the purple mist dissipated, but everyone found that the two "soup chickens" under everyone's feet were gone, so everyone raised their heads, and more than a hundred eyes swept in all directions at the same time, trying to find the missing two people.

"There!" shouted one of the knights, jumping in place as he raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the pavilion.

With a teleportation, Wang Xu stood on top of the ruined city wall, looking up at the small pavilion on the top of the stairs in the distance, he saw that there were two purple tentacles, wrapped around the waists of Sangu and Tang Si respectively, and quickly dragged them to another step farther away, which was covered by waist-deep green grass, and Wang Xu couldn't see what the owner of the two tentacles was.

Another teleportation, Wang Xu suddenly appeared on the steps, beside him, followed by Zana, who is also proficient in space magic, and the two succubus sisters, whose movement speed is comparable to teleportation, and Nilou is also in the air, flying towards Wang Xu quickly.

"Huh?" Wang Xu suddenly snorted coldly, because, he found that the black tentacles were gone, and Sangu and Tang Si were also gone, Wang Xu instantly used a fire wall technique, burning all the plants in front of him, and then, he used a wind blade technique, blowing away the black ashes of the plants covering the ground, but after cleaning the bluestone ground around here, Wang Xu was surprised to find that there was nothing here except for a platform paved with broken bluestones.

Just as Nilou fell from the sky and landed next to Wang Xu, Warren and the knights also rushed over, and when they saw the bare bluestone platform, they all looked at each other at a loss.

"I'll go to the sky and see!" Wang Xu picked up the flying sword and flew into the air, looking down on the earth, and at the same time, Nilou also flew up and flew to Wang Xu's side, while Zhana, riding a winged monster with only a skeleton left, and the two succubus sisters, also flew to Wang Xu's side.

Wang Xu, hovering in the air at a height of more than 1,000 meters, saw down, below was a huge city ruins with no end in sight, the city was stuck between countless mountains, and I don't know if there was a mountain in the city, or a city in the mountains, anyway, the mountains and the giant city had been integrated.

Because the topography of the city is very complex, there are mountains, ditches, rivers, lakes, forests, and hills, so in order to facilitate the traffic in the city, granite stairs and copper rope bridges of different lengths and shapes are connected on the ground at different heights in the city.

There were many buildings in every part of the city, but most of them had collapsed into ruins, and the whole city was covered with endless weeds and shrubs, so Wang Xu couldn't see the details of the city's buildings at all.

However, about in the center of the ruins of the giant city, there is a granite square mountain more than 100 meters high, and the top of the mountain is a huge platform, with an area of about several square kilometers.

In terms of architectural structure, the palace is surrounded by round minarets of different thicknesses and heights, located in the middle of the palace, is a tall and fat giant minaret, the walls are covered with arched windows of various sizes, all the parts of the windows have been weathered away by the years, only black arched windows remain.

The periphery of the palace is also a series of minarets, but these minarets seem to be "thin" a lot more than the "fat" tower in the middle of the palace, but whether they are fat or thin, the top of all the minarets, under the illumination of the noon sun, are emitting golden light, which makes the whole palace, as if bathed in holy auspicious light, seems very unreal.

After flying over the giant city for a long time, Wang Xu didn't even see a single hair of Sangu and Tang Si, but despite this, he still found some strange phenomena, for example, although the city was covered with plants of various colors, there was hardly any animal in the city, and there was no living thing that could move, especially near the palace, where there were not only no animals, but not even plants, which seemed very abrupt.

Wang Xu had to suspect that this strange phenomenon was not naturally formed, but probably deliberately done by someone.

"Did you find out?" Zana suddenly said to Wang Xu, "The plants in the city grow in a strange position, and they look like they have grown out of order, but it seems that someone has deliberately planted them like that. ”

"Huh?" Listening to Zana's reminder, Wang Xu took out a drawing board from his backpack system, took out a quill, and then, according to the distribution of the plants in the ruins, he drew their position patterns on the drawing board.

After finishing the painting, Wang Xu carefully observed the patterns on the drawing board, and exclaimed in a low voice: "Sulman Enchantment!"

"What!" After hearing Wang Xu's exclamation, Zhana also exclaimed at the same time, and then, she snatched the drawing board from Wang Xu's hand, and carefully looked at the pattern on it that seemed to be a magic circle, and then, her breathing became more and more rapid, and the hand holding the drawing board was also trembling slightly, and finally, she looked at Wang Xu with an excited expression, and asked sharply: "This is the Sulman Enchantment Array!"

"That's right, I once got an ancient parchment scroll with a mutilated Sulman Enchantment Circle painted on it, so I can confirm that the plants below enclose it make the Sulman Enchantment Circle!" Wang Xu replied to Zhana with a heavy face.

"What is the Sulman Enchantment?" Nilou, who didn't know much about the magic circle, asked Wang Xu, and at the same time, the two succubus sisters also looked at Wang Xu expectantly, and they also wanted to know what the Sulman Enchantment was.

"That's a lost illusion array, judging from the content recorded in the ancient documents that have been handed down, this kind of magic circle is quite powerful, and it can make everyone in the array fall into illusion, however, this magic circle also has a flaw, that is, it can't hide itself, so it is easy to be recognized by people who are proficient in the formation, however, for ordinary people, once they enter the enchantment formed by this magic circle, they will be confused by illusion, as long as they don't leave the scope of the enchantment, they may have to live in illusion for the rest of their lives!" Wang Xu frowned and replied in a low voice.

Without waiting for Nilou to express her doubts, she took a deep breath, and Wang Xu spoke again: "So, I suspect that everything we see in front of us now may be fake, perhaps, we have long been confused by illusion......
