Chapter 753: Confused
After a long journey, Lin Ye and his party arrived at the former site of Shadow City marked on the map, after all, this city really existed. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Shadowcity is marked on every map, and since the city has only been gone for over thirty years, many people have been here.
Including this Great Elder who was walking with Lin Ye, he had come to this most solemn and sacred holy place in the eyes of the devout disciples of the Dark Holy Court many times.
Normally, they would never be mistaken about the location of Shadowtown, but when they actually arrived, they saw that everything around them was empty.
This makes people suspicious, the surrounding area is dilapidated and depressed, let alone a city, not even a small village to be seen.
"Are we on the wrong track, there is nothing here, was there really a thriving city here in history? Even if the city is destroyed, there will be ruins or something, but there is nothing here but desolate weeds and rocks, it is strange. ”
Crouff turned over and dismounted, he saw the empty scene around him, and he was a little puzzled, he took the map in his hand and confirmed it again and again.
"According to the map, it is true that there is no place here, but Grand Elder, you have been to Shadow City many times, is there any difference between the geography around here and your impression? ”
"It's only been more than thirty years, it's not enough to change the landscape, the contours and features of the land should be no different from what they were more than thirty years ago, can you be sure that this is the same place as the Shadowtown you've visited? ”
Lin Ye threw this question to the Great Elder, although he didn't find Shadow City was something he expected, after all, more than thirty years had passed.
I don't know how many people were looking for Shadowland, but all of them came to naught, and he didn't think he could be much luckier than anyone else.
It's too unrealistic to be able to find out this city that seems to be hidden in the cracks of time and space for the first time.
"Here...... It seems to be the same as when I came here more than thirty years ago, except for the absence of the majestic and sacred city and the tower, the hill, and the continuous movement of the mountains there, there can be no mistake, this is the former site of Shadowcity, and the city is indeed gone. ”
The Great Elder carefully looked at the surrounding landforms, which began to coincide with what he had imagined, and he nodded, convinced of this.
"Hey, old man, you have to think clearly, but there is nothing like, we are here to do business, not for sightseeing, finding this Shadow City is a big thing for the Duke to do, there is no room for mistakes, if something goes wrong, can you afford the consequences?"
Crouff scolded the Great Elder dissatisfied, after all, he was not a believer in the Dark Holy See, and he didn't understand the complicated relationship involved.
They had come here to look for Shadowcity, but the emptiness was so suspicious to him, where did it look like a city?
"Shadowcity is a sacred place in our hearts, countless devout believers yearn for that place, when Shadowcity disappeared, we also searched hard, we were sure that as long as we found Shadowcity, found the Tower of Darkness, we could reunite the power of our faith. ”
"Only in this way can the Dark Holy Court rise again, we can free ourselves from the shackles and live happily again, but I don't know how many times we have searched for more than thirty years, but we have never found the whereabouts of Shadow City, maybe this city has really disappeared like this. ”
The Great Elder shook his head slightly, his expression was a little depressed, and his face was covered with folds, which was a symbol of his weatheredness.
"But is it really possible for such a city to disappear out of thin air? It's hard to believe. ”
Crouff scrutinized his surroundings and saw that there was nothing in the emptiness, and he picked up the stone and threw it in all directions.
He was particularly puzzled by the fact that he hadn't bumped into anything, and that the disappearance of a huge city was beyond people's comprehension.
"A city with thousands of buildings and tens of thousands of people, theoretically impossible to make it disappear, but it still happens, then we have to think about two things. ”
After observing the geography around him and the empty wilderness, Lin Ye frowned, and he sorted out his thoughts trying to find clues.
"What are the two problems? My lord, have you found any valuable clues?"
Kluf was stunned, it was really difficult for him to solve the riddle, since Lin Ye was here, then this problem would be left to him to solve.
"The first problem is that there really is some mysterious force that has moved the whole city away, either to the sky or to the sea, this is just a legend similar to a religious story, in fact, if such a great force really existed, it would have defeated the Church of Light long ago. ”
"And according to the teachings of the Holy See, Shadowcity and the Tower of Darkness were built brick by brick by believers, not so-called gifts from the gods, all of which we can rule out at this point, and the second problem is that if the city really exists, we have not found it. ”
"That must be some kind of inducement, that is, something similar to the existence of a blindfold, according to the basic laws of physics, since the city is not here, then it is somewhere else, as for the map and the landform, it can be camouflage, after all, we are following the map. ”
"If the map is not accurate from the beginning, then we will not be able to get to the right place, and the other party disguises the vicinity of the place marked on the map as the landform near the real city, and I think it can still be done with a little bit of blindfolding. ”
"In this way, the city should exist somewhere else, and only if it exists can it refract a mirage-like scene in a particular weather, so we have to re-examine the issue of its coordinates. ”
Lin Ye took the map from Crouff's hand and pointed out the crux of the problem, the map was wrong, not the city disappearing.
"Well, is there something wrong with the map? That is, the wrong place on the map is deliberately marked to lead us to the wrong place, and through the trick of blinding, we mistakenly believe that this is the real Shadowtown, and there is such a wide terrain here, we believe it?"
Crouff followed his train of thought and guessed some results, but he was also at a loss as to what to do next.
