Kingdom of Turin, Cloud City.

The sunset on the horizon glows with a soft and beautiful brilliance, like the skirt of the sunset, showing the world the appearance of today's zuihou.

A man and a woman are intimately walking hand in hand on the streets of Cloud City, the appearance and temperament of the man and woman are very ordinary, and they look inconspicuous in the crowd. No one would have imagined that the man who was not amazing was "Arthur", the third prince of the Longhuang Empire, who was currently famous in all countries.

Chen Rui's camouflage technique can change into anyone's appearance, even a pseudo-god can't see the clue, and Laura's transformation technique is equally clever, even if an assassin walks by face-to-face at this time, he will not know that the two are the target of the assassination.

The team will reach the Starlight Kingdom through the portal of Mirror City, and then go directly to the Blue Glory Empire from the Starlight Kingdom, which is the fastest route.

Chen Rui left the team with Miss Fairy Dragon and flew solo, his first destination was not the Blue Yao Empire, but the Jade Forest Sea. So this time I chose the fastest route to the Emerald Forest Sea, from the Sunset Cinema of the Yangshao Kingdom to the Turin Kingdom, the White Cheng Kingdom and other places, and then to the Emerald Forest Sea by water.

After dealing with the affairs of the dwarves and elves, Chen Rui will enter the Blue Yao Empire through the Jade Forest Sea, anyway, after Pagliu and the others arrive at the Blue Yao Empire, they will slow down and wait for the real protagonist "Arthur" to come to meet, and then go to the Blue Yao Imperial Capital to attend the wedding together.

Chen Rui and Laura crossed the border of the Evening Studios all the way, and when they arrived at the Cloud City of the Turin Kingdom in two days, it was not early, and there was still a long way to go from the border of the White Rider Kingdom, Yinsuo City. So the two decided to stay in Cloud City for a night temporarily.

The Kingdom of Turin is a small country, and the name of Cloud City is nice though. But it is located on the border, far less prosperous than those cities in the Yangshao Kingdom. It can't be compared with the Longhuang Empire, it can only be regarded as a barren small town, and the only thing that is commendable is the handicrafts here, which are quite exquisite.

"Laura, do you like these earrings?"

"Yes. ”

"This necklace is perfect for you. ”

"Yes. ”

"This skirt ......"

"Yes. ”

"Laura?"

"Huh?"

"What's wrong?"

"I love them all. (I like it very much) Although the answer is very simple, but the heart of the fairy dragon is as sweet as drinking honey, as long as Chen Rui chooses it, it has been affirmed without exception.

Chen Rui looked at Laura's smiling expression, and suddenly felt a sense of inspiration. She loves not only these gifts, but also this life, this feeling.

He likes it too.

Aiqing can't be blindly turbulent and turbulent, dead and alive, but more plain as water, warm and foamy.

He went through life and death several times, exhausted his efforts, and finally ended the war in the demon world, and released a magic game to fight against the abyss in two shijie, not for any great ambition, but just to protect his cherished people and cherished happiness.

For this. He will look directly at the unknown dangers ahead and continue to move forward.

"Boss," Lola's eyes lit up as she picked up something. "I want this. ”

"Wrap it up together. Chen Rui said.

Laura shook her head: "I'll pay for this one, I bought it for Duoduo." ”

Chen Rui looked at the delicate little toy and thought of the cute little phoenix daughter who would leave a saliva mark on his face every day. With a warm heart, I couldn't help but hold Laura's hand tightly.

"Want to do more?" Lola's tacit understanding with Chen Rui is getting deeper and deeper: "And Athena?"

Chen Rui nodded. Laura leaned lightly on his shoulder: "Next time, take Athena and them out together." ”

"Yes. Chen Rui knew that this was actually difficult, and Shia, Catherine, and Athena all had important positions. It is almost impossible to leave the post for a long time, especially the two empresses, Bixia, maybe one day, they will be able to completely remove the burden from their shoulders, so that they can really relax.

"Both, this is your pick of goods. The owner of the boutique was an old man with a smile on his face, smiling at the man and woman who looked like the couple, "This Excellency is four black crystal coins twelve white crystal coins, and the small toy that lady bought is three amethyst coins and seven white crystal coins, and the fraction will be removed, a total of four black crystal coins and three amethyst coins, xiexie." ”

Chen Rui and Lola paid, and the boss kindly added: "The two of you should be from out of town, it's getting dark now, hurry up and find a hotel to stay in, don't go out at night, I'm going to close the door immediately." ”

Chen Rui was stunned for a moment and asked, "A curfew is imposed at night? Even if it is a curfew, it's still early." ”

"It's not a curfew...... During this time, there was a bit of a situation, even the guards did not dare to come out easily at night. ”

Laura carefully noticed the strange appearance of the street outside, it was quite lively when she entered Cloud City before, and after visiting a few shops, the pedestrians had become very few, most of them seemed to be in a hurry, as if they wanted to hurry back, and two-thirds of the shops were closed.

Chen Rui asked curiously, "What's going on here?"

"Since you've come to Cloud City, you haven't even heard of this, this is a famous ghost town!" The boss looked left and right, and said carefully: "Every night, the area around Cloud City will be shrouded in a mysterious liliang, this liliang is eerie and terrifying, can absorb the soul and vitality of human beings, even if you walk outside, the liliang on your body will be swallowed up." Legend has it that some terrible spirit is at work, and anyone who goes out will be sucked out of their flesh and soul. There is also a legend that it is a curse that curses the darkness behind the light...... This has been the case for many, many years, and I don't know exactly when. There have been many daring adventurers who deliberately went out at night to find out, and when they were found the next day, they had turned into a pool of dry bones, and after such an event happened continuously, no one dared to try it again. Even the people of the church advised everyone not to go out at night, and the Radiant Knights of the Temple of Light in the capital city came to investigate several times, but found nothing. It's not the right time for you to come, this week is the time of year when the power is at its strongest. Let's find a hotel right away. Otherwise, it will be dangerous if it is late. ”

"The curse that has plagued the city for years?" After leaving the shop, Miss Fairy Dragon's eyes flickered slightly. Chen Rui could see that the boss's kind reminder did not make Lola vigilant. Instead, I became interested.

For the scientist Miss Fairy Dragon, the resentful spirit is just an undead creature with stronger mental power, and the curse is just another form of magic and elemental attack.

As for Chen Rui, who is resentful spirits or curses, he doesn't pay attention to them, he has a super system and many abilities, and Lola has a six-element country, and the strength of the two of them has reached the peak of the kingdom on the surface, even if there are really resentful spirits or curses, there is no need to be afraid.

"Let's find a place to rest. Have a drink," Chen Rui's words made Lola stunned for a moment, and then the back of his hand was kissed by this guy: "Then when it gets dark, let's go and see those so-called resentful spirits together, Lord Valley?"

The title of zuihou reminded Lola of the past when Chen Rui first entered the Rainbow Valley as an "assistant", her eyes flowed with tenderness, and she let out a soft "oh" and leaned her body closer to him.

Night.

There was not a single pedestrian in Cloud City, and even the guards guarding the city gate were nested in the fortress at the head of the city and did not dare to come out. In fact, at night, no one dares to enter or leave the entire "ghost town" or cause trouble in the city...... Except, two "tourists" who are new to the city.

"It's really a lot of resentment. Some of them resemble the breath of the undead, so it's no wonder that they are considered resentful spirits. Laura carefully felt the rich dark liliang in the city, "Still. It doesn't feel like a pure undead breath when you look closely. ”

Chen Rui added: "This kind of breath has a certain corrosive effect on the soul, and it is easy to make people hallucinate. But there wasn't much substantial harm, which should be the reason for being considered a 'curse'. ”

Lola nodded. Closing his eyes, he opened his perception with all his might: "It's very rich and strange, and it also has a lot of interference with perception, but the direction of the dark element's dazzling movement tells me that this source should be outside the city." ”

"Then let's solve this mystery. ”

The two didn't have to move, but they just maintained a certain speed and flew hand in hand, relying on Lola's sense, step by step to get closer to the source of the strange force, a ruin and ruins scattered in the woods.

The location of this ruin is obviously the outskirts of Cloud City, and the distance is quite far, but the strange force emitted actually envelops the entire city.

Chen Rui frowned: "The scale of this ruin is very large, it looks like some kind of dilapidated ruins, it is quite old, and it is lifeless, you can't feel the breath of any living creatures at all, etc., there is a special liliang aura in it, it seems to be ......"

"It's an ancient rune! The breath is still quite secret...... I seem to have found a hub. Lola answered, and with a move of his hand, a huge broken pillar buried in the rock on the ground slowly stood up, Lola's movements were very careful, and under the moonlight, Chen Rui saw a special circular symbol faintly on the broken pillar.

After the broken pillar was erected, Chen Rui's spiritual power clearly felt the changes around him, as if he had turned on a certain switch, of course, not everyone had the same sensing power as Laura and him, especially the comprehension of the ancient runes, and it was impossible to find this hub in the broken stone ruins for the first time.

"It's a game of finding patterns. Despite the change in appearance, the purple eyes of Miss Fairy Dragon were very familiar to Chen Rui, as if a child had found some interesting toy, "I know, it's like your big nine-square grid game last time, to calculate the appropriate numbers, open them one by one, I'll take a look......"

This kind of problem-solving thinking is a kind of enjoyment for Laura, Chen Rui didn't bother her, just looked around, the forest is very large, but it can't completely cover the extent of the ruins. Chen Rui had been to the ruins of Cui Fante of the Wind Shadow Empire in the Fallen Angel Empire, and compared to the scale of this ruin, it seemed far inferior.

"Thirty-five meters to the west, this ...... Then go twelve meters to the north...... "Here Lola has quickly calculated the order and location of each hub, and with a wave of his hand, one object after another has been erected.

These "hubs" have strict order requirements, which are very complicated, but Chen Rui and Laura are both proficient in ancient runes, and the level of the magic array can be called the grandmaster level, and this level of difficulty is not difficult for the two of them.

Chen Rui noticed that there were traces of movement around these hubs, and it seemed that Laura was not the first person to open the hubs, and the circular symbol could be seen in several places in the ruins, like a cloud...... Cloud City?

The sound of "boom" sounded, interrupting Chen Rui's thoughts, it turned out that Lola had successfully activated all the hubs, and the erected objects began to glow, connecting with each other, intertwining into a strange shape, the light was fleeting, and the landscape below began to change rapidly.

Streams of strong spirits surged out, mixed with resentment that eroded souls, and they were vast, just like the group of resentful spirits that Chen Rui encountered at the bottom of the Sea of Death in the Demon Realm.

The scene below gradually became clearer, Liliang, which was originally a kind of shielding of space, but now it had been lifted by Lola, and a large avenue could be seen leading to a square-like place in front of it, and the square was faintly glowing.

"Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh...... Countless cold lights roared towards Lola in the air, extremely fast, and the black shadow flickered below-someone!(To be continued......
