In a large valley, the metal men of the dense forest perform their duties. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the middle of the canyon is a flat field, on which is placed a large earthen furnace, the material of which looks the same color as the ground, half a man high, and at least ten meters in diameter.
There was a purple flame burning in the furnace, and many metal men held a piece of metal in their hands and calcined it in the flame, and then took it out and beat it when it was red.
Some of the metal men had formed in their hands, and they were large swords, as wide as the door panels.
Throughout the canyon, the sound of tinkling and clinking echoed.
Behind the flat ground, there were tall houses made of stone, like a palace, and many metal people came and went.
It's clearly a whole human tribe.
Kim Ren led him to a house and said, "Wait for me here, and I'll go and tell the general." ”
After saying that, he walked straight into the room.
Lizhi waited quietly, nodding at the metal man who had looked at him as he surveyed the house.
The style is no different from the houses in the right flag city, the whole body is built of black and slimy mountain stones, boxy, and looks thick and solid.
A moment later, Jin Ren came out of the room, beckoned his one arm lightly, and motioned for Li Zhi to go in.
Lizhi followed it and entered the palace.
It was empty and had no partition walls, only huge stone pillars to support the whole palace and prevent it from collapsing.
In the middle of the main hall is a piece of dirt land of thousands of square meters.
Metal figures of different shapes, sitting or standing, in a circle, three layers inside and three layers outside, no less than 100 people.
Standing in the middle of these metal figures is a relatively intact metal figure, scratching his fingers on the dirt, writing.
Li Zhi got closer and saw that a map-like painting had been drawn on the ground, with dense characters on it, and the font was similar to that used by Dongfang Mangyuan now, but there were some differences, and he could vaguely recognize a few.
He could recognize words such as ambush and magma.
"The Great General is laying out an offensive strategy. Jin Ren explained to Lizhi.
After the general finished writing a few words, he stopped his movements, stood up and looked at Lizhi, his facial features looked complete, and his body was tall, and his body was straight, giving people a feeling of being as heavy as Mount Tai.
The metal lips moved up and down, as if to greet Lizhi, but no sound came out.
Jin Ren limped to the general, touched his arm, and then said to Lizhi: "The general said that you are very welcome, but there are important military deployments now, so let me take you to the rest place first." ”
"Okay, but your body still needs to rest?" asked Li Zhi in surprise.
After asking, he gave a fist salute to the general, and then followed Jin Ren.
"Of course, although this body has merged with the soul, it is not a human body after all, it is very bulky and mentally draining to drive. Jin Ren said as he walked.
After a while, he took Lizhi to a room at the back of the main hall.
There were stone beds in the room, and nothing else.
After all, metal men don't need any household items.
"Have you ever been at war against the Desolate Beast Clan?" asked Lizhi, sitting on the stone bed.
"Of course, I'm the most combative person in the tribe. Jin Ren pointed to the gap in the left half of his body with one arm and said, "This arm was bitten off by them in the last battle." We are very afraid of fire, and if the body is not seriously damaged, it can be partially melted and repaired, but there is no way to break it. ”
"It turns out that your body is not naturally damaged, but caused by the battle?" Li Zhi was speechless, looking at the injuries on Jin Ren's body, it was simply miserable.
Either it's dented here or there's a piece missing.
If it had been a human, it would have bled to death a long time ago, but fortunately it was a metal body.
Even if you haven't experienced a battle, you can feel the fierceness of the battle just by looking at this body.
"Fire can melt metal, and the heat of fire can kill people and beasts with these metal bodies. Mo Huiyang immediately thought of what to use to resolve Lizhi if he encountered danger.
"The Cangmu Scepter can produce flames, but it's a pity that the fire breath you are spawning now is still not enough to produce flames that are comparable to magma, if you want to melt metal, it will take a long time, and it won't have much effect on the enemy, so it's better to use strength to fight. "Forcefully struck Mo Huiyang.
At the same time, he said to Jin Ren, "What does the source of life that the Desolate Beast tribe guards look like, and why do you call it the source of life?"
"They built a city out of the skulls of our previous bodies and the liquid of melted metal, and the source of life is protected in the city of bones, which I have not seen with my own eyes. The source of life was also told to us by the general, but I could feel that the resurrection was connected to the source of life, just a feeling. For this reason, I have been wandering outside, looking for some clues, and that's why I came across you. Jin Ren patiently explained.
"Bone City? Li Zhi felt a chill in his heart.
Just listening to the name, you can imagine the city wall with mountains of bones, and that feeling, if you are a timid person, you will probably have a numb scalp when you look at it.
The beast's hatred for humans can be seen from the top of this city.
"Then did you general say when the attack will begin? I must leave the purgatory space as soon as possible and find two friends. Lizhi asked.
"You're ...... soon. Are you leaving? Jin Ren didn't answer, and there was a hint of reluctance in his tone.
This reluctance warms Lizhi's heart.
Although Jin Ren's appearance is ugly, in fact, when he comes into contact with it, he can't help but forget what it looks like, and even because of the connection of Mo Huiyang's soul power, he can clearly feel its emotions.
There is also a trace of nostalgia in the reluctance.
"Do you want to leave the purgatory space?" asked Lizhi, "If you want to leave, when you find the exit, I can actually take you with me." ”
Jin Ren looked at him in a daze and fell silent.
After a while, he said firmly: "I can't go with you, the other soldiers are still here, I must obey the general's orders, I can't go if I can't attack the source of life for a day." ”
In these words, Li Zhi can obviously hear the reluctance, but the reluctance can't make it give up the sense of the race, and it can't let go of its companions.
Li Zhi changed the topic and chatted with Jin Ren for a while.
Until there was a knocking sound at the door, Jin Ren immediately got up from the stone bed and walked to the door to greet him.
Soon, the tall body of the general appeared at the door.
"Old Mo, let me talk to the general. After Li Zhi waited for the general to enter the room, he said to Mo Huiyang.
The soul power that connected Jin Ren was collected and transferred to the Great General, and immediately, the Great General's voice could be heard in Li Zhi's mind.
"General, I heard Jin Ren say that you will attack the Desolate Beast Tribe soon, when is it?"
"Can you speak in my heart?" The general was obviously a little surprised when he heard Lizhi's voice, but quickly calmed down and asked, "For more than a hundred years, I have never heard of a human being who can survive in the purgatory space, and everyone who comes in will be burned to death, why aren't you afraid of fire?"
Jin Ren also asked him this question, but he didn't dwell too much.
But the general is not Jin Ren, and he feels that in addition to surprise, there is also a trace of vigilance.
If you don't answer well, I'm afraid you'll turn around immediately.
Li Zhi didn't answer, and directly urged the Huoying breath to burst, wrapping his body like a flame.
At this scene, the general subconsciously took two steps back, only to find that the breath on Lizhi's body that seemed to be a flame did not have any temperature.
"My True Qi is different from ordinary people, because of some adventures, it can prevent the flames from burning. After Li Zhi showed it, he immediately took his breath.
can be a tribal leader, this person should also be a hero in his life, and it is difficult to explain it after a long time.
I don't know if it was too long for the general to forget the nature of the true qi itself, or because of Lizhi's Huoying aura that suppressed him, after Lizhi finished explaining, he didn't delve into it further.
This made Li Zhi secretly relieved.
"In ten hours, we are going to attack the Source of Life, and my subordinates say that you want to go there to find an exit, and I can tell you that the Source of Life is not an exit, it is where our souls are reborn, and you may be disappointed. And once you fight, I can't guarantee your safety, with your flesh and blood, even if your strength is no worse than ours, once you encounter a siege, you will definitely die. The general admonished.
"Thanks for worrying, if the source of life isn't an exit, I'll go ahead and find it. As for life and death, I have also seen your battles, the strength is very strong, but the speed is not fast, with my speed, as long as I don't want to fight, I should have more than enough self-preservation. Lizhi was not moved by the words of the great general.
For him, as long as there is any clue, he will not give up.
If you can't get out, it's no different from dead.
"Speed is not enough, you don't know the power of the Source of Life, the beasts have been occupying it, in fact, they want to make the Source of Life available to them. Once they are able to invoke the power of the source of life, we will all die, and what makes us regenerate can easily kill us. The general shook his head, a deep fear in his tone.
Lizhi understood.
It turned out that the battle between the human tribe and the desolate beast tribe was not as simple as the hatred of the two races.
"This person has a deep fear of the source of life, and that thing can make people reborn, and it must involve the power of the soul. After absorbing the soul power left to me by the old tree roots, I doubled my strength, and if I encounter something like this again, I won't be helpless anymore, and besides, don't you still have the Cangmu Scepter. Mo Huiyang interjected.
If it's an entity, he really can't really help, everything depends on the strength of the cultivation.
But as long as it's a soul, it's easy to say, with the fragrance of the Cangmu Scepter and his double insurance, it doesn't seem to him to be a big deal.
"It shouldn't be so simple, the purgatory space must be the same as the Shenmu space, different from the ordinary divine power space, this kind of space, once the source of the space is destroyed, the space will also disintegrate. For two hundred years, no one has broken the source of space, and it is not a simple thing to imagine. Besides, I don't know if the source of life is the source of space, so be careful. "Lizhi is not as optimistic as Mo Huiyang.
He is still not in the extreme realm, and in terms of true strength, he died as early as the Shenmu Space.
That is, I was lucky to get here.
If you take it lightly, you may die in the next moment.
Lizhi asked the general a few more questions, but none of them helped him, but he became more and more curious about the bone city created by the desolate beast.
After the general left, Jin Ren stayed with him.
Ten hours, in fact, the flame on the top of the mountain burns and extinguishes ten more times, according to Mo Huiyang's estimate, it is almost a day.
When the sound of a metal gong was heard outside, Kim Ren led the strong support out of the room.
Outside the house, there were already hundreds of metal warriors lined up, each with a large sword that was wide enough to be a body in his hand, but because of his mutilated body, he really didn't look like an army should have the momentum, but it had a funny feeling.
As the general's arms collided, the warriors began to walk out of the canyon.
