Chapter Twenty-Three: Entering the Center

The city lord's mansion in Yangping City is located two streets behind the city square. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoThis city lord's mansion is located almost in the core of the city, but the neighborhood is almost uninhabited.

Fang Hua led the way in front, enduring the horror in his heart, and moved forward mechanically, but his trembling arms betrayed his emotions undoubtedly.

"What's the situation in the City Lord's Mansion?" Fang Haoze asked curiously, he had long felt that there was a deep dark power there, this power was very pure, but it was not powerful. At least for yourself, there is no threat.

"In the castle lord's mansion, it is said that there are more terrifying monsters, but they never come out, but as long as someone approaches, they are devoured. Fang Hua explained, his face was a little unnatural, he didn't want his slightly cowardly side to be seen by adults.

"It's okay, I'm here. Fang Haoze said lightly, and suddenly eleven people around him felt strong confidence from these words. Everyone also settled down a little and moved forward more attentively.

Soon, the group arrived at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion. Fang Haoze looked at the past intently, and through a deep gate, it was pitch black inside, like a giant beast devouring people.

At this moment, a bright thread of divine power stretched out from Fang Haoze's fingers, this was his usual divine technique. Although he can feel that the dark power in this is not enough to threaten him, it is still necessary to explore the way in advance.

I saw that this silk thread penetrated the gate and went all the way to the house, and everything along the way was clearly shown in Fang Haoze's vision: this is a three-entry mansion, through the front yard, it is the main hall, and there is an inner courtyard behind the main hall, with several houses. Further back, there was a small garden, and behind the garden there was a deep mansion.

Along the way, the city lord's mansion was in ruins, with rubble piling up in the aisles, dust covering the houses, and not a single intact house.

The Divine Silk Thread noticed two strange places in this mansion, one of which was the front hall, which contained a place that seemed to be an office, and two faint objects also transmitted the light of force. In another place, in the courtyard behind the garden, the Shenli Silk Thread arrived here, and actually lost contact, and I don't know what happened.

Fang Haoze's face was cold, knowing that there must be a great danger here, and he could even devour his divine power. However, I still can't give up this operation, on the one hand, I feel that the power is not above me, and on the other hand, the two items in the front hall are very useful to me.

At that moment, Fang Haoze said: "I have already found out something, there is no big danger, you follow me." With that, he consumed ten parts of his divine power, released it and hung it in front of everyone, and this divine power naturally became a source of light, illuminating the surroundings brightly, so that this gloomy place could not be darkened.

Since this world is between the virtual and the real, the divine power can manifest countless times, and there is no simple divine power to use any spell, this divine power can be used as a light source at the moment, if there is danger ahead, it can also be used as a means of attack, to buy a little time for everyone in advance.

Striding towards the city lord's mansion, a rotten aura came to the surface. Just used divine power to probe what he saw, after all, it was not very intuitive, and when he entered it at this moment, the feeling of dead silence surrounded everyone, not to mention other people, Fang Haoze's fourth-order body felt a chill on his skin.

Stepping on the dilapidated wreckage under his feet, there was immediately a squeaking sound in his ears, Fang Hua's body trembled, and he couldn't help but get a little closer to Fang Haoze. It had been a few incense sticks since everyone entered this mansion, and everyone entered while cleaning up, and the speed was very slow, and he only felt that the closer he got to the inner house, the more terrifying he felt. I couldn't help but ask: "My lord, I feel that there is a great terror in the depths of the inner house, do you have to take precautions in advance?" ā€

In fact, Fang Haoze has also been guarding against the unknown existence in the backyard, and when he heard Fang Hua say this, he immediately replied: "I already have a sense, you just need to do things steadily." Since entering the house, Fang Haoze has been suspended in the air and refused to land.

The house was so messy that he really didn't want to walk on the ground. It was he who specially brought a team of people to keep tidying up on the way forward. Fortunately, the halo around his body also showed a miracle at this moment, blocking all the surrounding dust from his body.

Fortunately, this team of people finally approached the front hall, and after Fang Hua and the others swept away the wooden fence and other objects in front of the door, Fang Haoze first entered the office he had just noticed.

It's a study room with a lot of bookshelves, and all the books on the shelves are now in ashes. In front of the bookshelf, there was also a table, which was lying on the ground at the moment, three of the four legs were broken, and only one was firmly supported, leaning against the wall. In the corner of the table where it had fallen to the ground, there was a half-poured incense burner.

In Fang Haoze's eyes, this incense burner showed a faint light, which was one of the goals of this trip. And on the ground not far from the incense burner, there is also a book, which also shows a faint light.

"Collect the ......" Fang Haoze took another divine power from the godhead, turned it into a hand, scooped up the two objects from the ground, and raised a puff of dust. He didn't care, and continued to direct the divine power to bring the two things to his side, and after the aura of divine power, the dust was naturally blocked out.

When these two items arrived in front of him, Fang Haoze carefully observed them. The more palm-sized, very miniature this incense burner, but quite heavy, this incense burner is carved with countless intricate patterns, birds, animals, flowers, birds, fish and insects, and even the mundane and so on.

As for the other book, it is no longer brand new, the edges are broken, and there are a few words written on it: "Yangping Zhi".

Holding these two things in his hand, Fang Haoze was about to continue to use his divine power to analyze it again and hand it over to the Shenge Jade Plate for interpretation, when suddenly, Fang Haoze's body flashed, as if he was hiding from something.

Sure enough, the next moment, a black tentacle grabbed the void where he had just appeared.

However, the matter was not over yet, outside this space, four or five black tentacles appeared, tearing the ball of divine power light above everyone and quickly devouring it.

Seeing this, Fang Haoze immediately put the things he was holding into the godhead space, and his free right hand held the Ice Sword and slashed at a tentacle. With a "brush" sound, the Ice Sword slashed through a tentacle, and the tentacle fell to the ground, jumped a few times, but turned into black smoke, and was absorbed by the rest of the tentacles again.

At the same time, the other black tentacles didn't care about the people brought by Fang Haoze, and only cared about attacking Fang Haoze. The latter spewed out a bolt of divine power from the godhead jade plate, turning into a lightsaber and slashing back and forth on the black tentacles.

But the strange thing is that the invincible divine power in this space has no effect on this tentacle, and when the divine power lightsaber cuts from the tentacle, it seems to be slashing through the space, as if this tentacle is just a phantom. But this tentacle quickly told Fang Haoze with his actions that it was not a phantom, only to see a few tentacles holding the lightsaber tightly, and in a few clicks, this lightsaber returned to the origin of divine power, and a little bit of divine power was scattered, and these tentacles were competing to absorb it.

"Something is wrong, these tentacles can devour divine power. Fang Haoze's face changed greatly, and he immediately commanded everyone: "Quickly retreat." ā€
