Chapter 182: Dead City

After a few days of preparations, on a sunny morning, the airship set off in the direction of the snowfield.

There weren't many real passengers on the airship, except for the dwarven craftsmen, the necessary operators, and the warriors in charge of the guards.

Lutton, University Scholars III, V, VIII, Justice Goodred, Justice Prood, Awul.

These seven people formed this expedition to the ruins of the Qiyun Kingdom.

Ponge didn't follow.

He came to Nice Castle just to help Ludon Town, and by the way, to see if there was any way to persuade Ludon to change his mind.

Neither of the Big Three wanted Luton to do this.

But there was nothing they could do.

In the Divine State, they are the most powerful existences, and a stomp of their feet can make the Divine State tremble.

But in front of Ludon, they were just friends.

It was precisely because of their acquaintance and acquaintance that they understood better that it was impossible for Ludon to be convinced.

He seems to have been born for this, and the whole person is driven by this belief that he must go to the Qiyun Ruins to explore.

Taking Awu with him was also an arrangement that Lu Deng had seriously considered.

Over the years, Awu has been more by Pong's side, receiving an education similar to that of the elite of the Holy Descent.

In Ponger's view, only this kind of education can produce real successors.

Awu never forgot his status as a slave and Mr. Luden.

Every year, he would take a leave of absence to stay by Ludon's side, doing what a slave would do.

As for what Awu can learn from this, it's up to him.

Although there will be no great danger on this last trip, the situation of the ruins of the Qiyun Kingdom will not be too good.

Al or Pong, there's no need to get involved.

On the contrary, it is Awu, the days in the future are still long, and it is always good to experience more.

Luton had asked the Empress about the specific manifestations of the curse.

After all, eternal life can have many explanations.

Does it age? What happens after a fatal injury? Changes in physical fitness and memory?

For these, the empress did not have too many psychological barriers, and said everything she knew.

First, the Eternals will always live.

At the same time, she can choose to be old or young, as long as she tries to imagine an age in her mind, and takes a light nap.

When you wake up, your physical skills will be adjusted to the corresponding age, from 18 to 80 years old. No matter how small it is, it won't work.

To prove her claim, the Empress showed Lutdon at least four changes in one night.

Very moist.

Second, the physical functions of the eternal will always be in a relatively healthy state.

There will be no disease in the brain, and there will be no problems with your own hormones.

Finally, if the Eternals are killed, they will have different outcomes depending on the cause of death.

The Empress used her personal experience to give a few examples:

When hanged, suffocation will make her briefly unconscious, and within half an hour, as soon as she leaves the noose, she will resume normal breathing and quickly wake up.

If you hang for more than half an hour, the body will disappear into thin air, and the person will appear in a nearby place where no one is around.

Take poison without any reaction, unless the poison is corrosive.

Stabbed to death or any corpse with any damage will randomly respawn near the corpse. …

After the organs of the body are cut, they will be reborn, and the previous organs will turn into puddles of pus...

Overall, Ludon didn't need to worry about the trip, causing irreversible physical damage to Awu.

That's why Ludon chose to take Awu with him.

Justice Provod, the eldest, was depressed after the take-off and had been resting in his bedroom.

In Luden's words, it's a bit of a lack of oxygen.

With this situation in mind, Ludon also prepared some oxygen, just in case.

Feeling the bumps in the cabin, the scholar staggered to Lu Deng's side and asked in a deep voice,

"Mr. Luden, there will be a lot of orcs near the ruins of the Qiyun Kingdom, how do we land?"

Ludon said sincerely,

"I'll call them out through the bullhorn first."

Scholar 3: ......

If orcs can communicate, are they still called orcs?

The scholar was patient and asked,

"What about the orc's refusal?"

"It's easy."

Ludon walked through the cabin and introduced several hanging weapons.

"This is a Molotov cocktail, this is a Nobel, I mean, this is explosives, and this, a kind of musket..."

Molotov cocktails, explosives, such things, even if the third university scholar does not understand, can understand one or two through the superficial meaning.

But... Muskets?

The third scholar was a little puzzled,

"The power of the musket is indeed good, but in the face of the beast tide, isn't it a little..."

Even if a single bullet could take out an orc, it would have little effect.

"Don't worry."

Ludon said,

"This is the brother of the musket, the machine gun."

Machine gun?

At this time, the heart of the third university scholar was still full of doubts.

Within a few days, the third scholar understood what the word 'machine gun' meant.

Two machine guns made hundreds of orcs drop dozens of corpses and flee in the wilderness!

When the airship came outside the ruins of the Qiyun Kingdom, everyone in the cabin was shocked.

They saw towering buildings, made of unknown materials, that could stand for 800 years.

Aside from the buildings, the pavement was unlike anything they'd ever seen.

There are all kinds of metal boxes parked on the road, and it looks like a kind of transportation?

"The orcs are all outside, they can't get in?"

Justice Gurred poked his head out and quickly found the clue,

"These buildings, closed to orcs, are barred outside..."

The city is exceptionally well preserved, like the house where the owner left the house, and some rats surrounded the house, but could not enter it.

The airship did not penetrate deep into the city to avoid colliding with buildings. In that case, the calf is really finished.

Ludon piloted the airship and wandered around the dead city for half a day.

Next, he chooses a building and prepares to disperse the surrounding orcs.

"Mr. Luden, why are you there?"

While counting the equipment, Awu expressed his doubts.

There are so many buildings, why choose this one?

For Awu's questions, Ludon has always been happy to answer,

"Have you seen that signboard, in Gu Qiyun's language, it means [Coffee Bookstore], which is a petty bourgeois entertainment method that has risen in the Qiyun Kingdom at a certain stage, and this store is made of retro models." …

The design details of this bookstore are somewhat similar to those of the Qiyun Kingdom back then, and they are obviously wasted.

With the cover of light and heavy firepower such as machine guns, it is naturally not difficult to drive away the orcs.

Orcs are wise enough that even if they are extremely angry, they will not be presumptuous in front of death.

The airship descended slowly.

After descending to a sufficient height, the members of the exploration team sit on the gondola in turn, slide down to the ground, and then flip out of the gondola.

"Quick!"

Under Lu Deng's command, everyone ran quickly and rushed to the door of the [Coffee Bookstore].

There is no way to remove a machine gun.

They carried only a few revolvers with them, which they used to protect against unexpected situations.

After coming to the door of the bookstore, looking at the closed door, everyone was at a loss.

The orcs have lived here for eight hundred years, and have not been able to break through the defenses of these buildings.

How do they get in?

"This is..."

Luden looked at a palm-shaped square on the wall, and a hint popped up in front of him:

【Fingerprint Unlock Module】

These buildings are fingerprint unlocked.

The technology of the Qiyun Kingdom is advanced enough to allow the entire city to operate unattended for eight hundred years.

The power source could be nuclear fusion, or it could be solar ...

Looking at the orcs in the distance, Ludon did not hesitate and pressed his palm up.

"Scanning..."

An electronic sound suddenly sounded, startling everyone.

"Scanned!"

"The current indoor temperature: 23 degrees, good air circulation system, 98.6% power reserve, it is expected to continue to operate for 1100 years, indoor and outdoor radiation is high, please wear AS-level radiation-proof clothing or take AS-level radiation-proof drugs..."

Then, the closed door slowly opened, revealing a gap that allowed the two of them to pass.

Through this gap, everyone took a look at the bookstore, and peeked into the former glory of the Qiyun Kingdom.

Rows of lights are lit up, and books are neatly arranged on the shelves.

Spotlessly clean, the years are quiet.

The whole bookstore, at this moment, seemed to come alive.

No, it should be said that the whole city came alive at this moment.

Each loudspeaker played the same electronic tone and said the same thing:

"Welcome home, Mr. Luden."
