Gong Piqing's gaze followed the blue light cast out and fell to the mottled stone brick floor under his feet.

Coincidentally, the ground in the area where he was sitting was as muddled as if it had been rubbed or hit hard.

Coupled with the fact that the sunlight in the sky was really strong, he sat there and adjusted his position for a long time, but he couldn't see some details on the map clearly.

In this case, he felt that it would be better to find a light-colored and flat place to use as a projection wall.

Thinking about it, his gaze fell on the outer wall of the small light orange bungalow beside him.

The exterior wall of the bungalow was not very flat, but the overall color was relatively uniform, and then he raised his hand and pointed the projection device at the wall, and a large projection map appeared on the wall.

Immediately, the general situation of the entire town was also put on the wall, and at the same time, the voice of the assistant in the suit also came from his suit:

"Report to the master, this map is taken from the headquarters in the "Brief Map of the Land of Machines" before the establishment of the "Trip to the Demon World" plan, according to the book, the town is located on the edge of the country of machines, named because of the rich iron ore underground, and can be called an iron ore hub in the entire country of machines, but also because of the remote location, the population in the town is not very large, and the iron ore mines have basically realized mechanized operations."

Gong Piqing nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "Then do you know where there may be an Endless Energy Device in this town?" ”

The suit assistant then sighed lightly, "I'm sorry master, it seems that the little assistant still needs to learn, and he can't answer your question for the time being......"

The helpless voice of the little assistant made Gong Piqing, who had not been able to understand the map for various reasons, even more confused, because even if he projected the map onto the wall in front of him, he still couldn't see any details on the map.

"Master, if you really need an endless energy device, you can go to those nearby mines to find it, according to the "Machine Nation Mission Guide", the mines in this town have been mechanized, and the internal staff should also need energy to drive, maybe there is an endless energy device there."

The little assistant's voice made Gong Piqing stunned directly, for some reason, when the little assistant just said this proposal, he immediately felt that this was really a good idea, but when the little assistant's voice fell, and his ears fell silent again, a spontaneous fear suddenly surged into his heart.

"A town rich in iron ore...... Mechanized iron ore mines...... "He seems to have seen it somewhere."

In that illusion of hot molten iron and flames, he ushered in the darkest days of his life.

Because it was in that illusion that the queen disappeared forever from his life, and when he needed help the most, the queen left him, and a false illusion created by the enemy with magic was finally killed by him finally exploding and incarnating as Nidhogg......

Can...... Is this cozy town where he now looks like a toy left behind by an angel really the place where he was once trapped in the illusion of the Extremely Cold Palace......

In the end, another "boom" sound pulled his mind back to reality from that unbearable past, and the sound suddenly appeared from the corner at the end of the alley, but Gong Piqing was not surprised, because in the state of his mind just now, it was normal not to hear it at first.

Accompanied by a rumbling sound, there was also the sound of a person's footsteps, which sounded like someone was pulling some heavy object to walk.

A few seconds later, an old woman who looked not too young appeared at the end of the alley, and behind the old woman pulled a big iron bucket-like thing, although there were tires under the iron bucket, but I don't know if it was because the ground was too uneven or because the tires were aging, even though the tires had left two obvious scratches on the ground on the way, the tires were still motionless.

Can...... Why is this old woman here? Didn't Hades say that no one lived in this alley anymore? So what is she doing here!

"Detected that there is an unknown target near you, for the sake of concealment, the assistant temporarily turned off the map projection device for you, if you still need to use it later, you can say to me: open the map." The voice of the little assistant rang in his ears.

But he didn't have time to answer the little assistant now, because the old woman clearly came straight to them.

Now he and Hades' suits are still turned on with the light offset function, if nothing else, the old woman actually doesn't know that they are in this position, which means that they haven't been exposed yet, but what is the old woman doing here?

If it was just him, he could have slowly gotten up from the ground and leaned against the wall, because as long as his movements were slow enough, his light shift would not be affected too much, but there was also Hades by his side!

He knew that Hades' deep meditation state would not end so quickly, and while he was thinking, he turned his head to look at Hades, and sure enough, this guy was still sitting on the ground like an old monk sitting in meditation just now, even if the "boom" sound made when the iron bucket in front of him was pulled closer and closer, he didn't move at all.

Sure enough, the old woman really didn't find them, because if she did, it would be impossible for them to walk to Gong Piqing's face without slowing down.

"Oh my God! Stop, stop! Stop！ Stop it! Gong Piqing panicked, and directly came out of his mouth in Chinese and English, and when he shouted these words, he stood up from the ground and stretched out his hand to make a gesture that stopped the old woman.

The old woman in front of her looked very young, and such a voice suddenly appeared in front of her, which naturally scared her a lot, after Gong Piqing appeared, she exclaimed, and then supported the iron bucket behind her with one hand, and covered her chest with the other hand and gasped.

Gong Piqing was also frightened, because he didn't expect that he could scare the old woman like this just by saying a word, for fear that the old woman would suddenly fall down in pain in the next second, and then shouted how much he wanted to lose......

"Ahh I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to scare ......" Gong Piqing shouted halfway, only to realize that he and the people here do not understand the language, or the little assistant will look at the eyes, as soon as his voice fell, the little assistant came from the suit: "I detected that the master has entered the communication environment, and the translation function has been turned on for the master, and the translation language is: Demon Language." ”

About half a second later, the suit's built-in audio playback device translated his words into the language of the Demon Realm.

Gong Piqing watched anxiously for more than a minute, and finally the old woman straightened up as if she had finally breathed a sigh of relief, looking at Gong Piqing in front of her, who was gradually appearing because of "entering the state of interaction with unknown targets and automatically turning off the light deflection function", her face was full of great horror and strangeness.

The old woman immediately spoke the grunting language of the Demon Realm, and after the translation of the battle suit, Gong Piqing realized what she said was: "You young man, why are you idle here to scare such an old woman here?" Don't you have a job? ”

Judging from the old woman's words, she didn't seem to care much about why Gong Piqing "suddenly appeared" in this place.

Could it be that because this is a demon world where magic is the main energy source, this kind of little trick of "appearing out of thin air" is not strange even for such an elderly person?

"I ...... I ......" He couldn't say anything for a moment, and his brain was weaving lies at a rapid pace.

"I'm a ...... Writer, today ...... I don't have inspiration, I want to come out and bask in the sun and feel the breath of nature, hoping to get some inspiration in this way......"

But what Gong Piqing didn't expect was that as soon as he heard his words, the strangeness on the old woman's face disappeared instantly, and turned into a relieved expression.

"Oh! Writers! Hello writers! Young and promising, but why are you dressed so strangely? Is this what fashion is in the mouth of your young people? The old woman looked back and forth at him as if she were interested in him.

"Ah...... Oh, yes! I love wearing it this way, it's comfortable for me to wear it this way! He stammered as his senses almost went into a state of "full fire"; He was trying his best to find any bad clues from the old woman in front of him, if the seemingly harmless old woman in front of him was still the same as the robots they met in the Machine Land last time, even if the other party was pretending to be such a kind old man, he would definitely not be merciful!

Sure enough, in the next second, the old woman smiled and stretched out her hand to him, he was so frightened that his heart trembled, and the muscles of his whole body instantly tensed, and even his muscles that had been temporarily mutated under the tight suit were exposed......
