Chapter 264: The Vanishing City

This morning, everyone followed the guidance of the map and finally came to the vicinity of the city of Melia, and the scene in front of them made the five people stunned in place.

I saw that the city of Melia disappeared without a trace, leaving only a desert. Pesmona's eyes widened in disbelief and said, "Impossible, this must be Melia City, I set off from here a few days ago." With that, she looked up at Lord Ajess.

Lord Ajers looked ahead with a solemn expression and did not speak. Then Tukamon asked, "Lord Ajas, do you know of any spells that can make the city disappear?" Lord Ajs thought for a moment, then shook his head and replied, "There are spells that can make certain houses or individual buildings disappear, but make an entire city ...... If there really is such a spell, it will be a very terrifying existence. ”

At this time, Helem said solemnly: "Let's get closer, let's see, maybe we can find something to say." After all, the lives of more than 100,000 people are at stake. ”

The group nodded, and rode the camel in the direction where the town had been.

But after taking a few steps, the lizard-camel suddenly stopped en masse, and the non-stop neighing resolutely refused to take another step forward.

Pesmona looked at General Helem with a confused expression, only to see Helem, Tika, and Tukamon looking around with serious expressions.

Seeing this, she looked around in confusion, but found nothing. I only heard General Helem say in a somewhat nervous tone: "There should be something around that makes the lizard beast dare not move forward." He looked at the crowd, "Let's come down, if they don't want to go forward, we can't force it." ”

Pesmona nodded and then turned over and dismounted, then she looked at General Heliem with some concern and asked, "General Heleem, what about this lizard camel?" Won't it run if you put it here? He replied as he fastened his bag, "Don't worry, Pesmona, the lizards are very protective animals, and they will wait quietly for their master's return." ”

Pesmona thought for a moment, then looked at Lord Ajas.

At this time, Lord Ajath quietly looked at the huge clearing in front of him, as if thinking about something.

Tika asked with some confusion, "Lord Ajas, do you have anything in mind?" Lord Ajs replied solemnly, "It's so strange, it's so strange, no matter what spell it is, it should be able to show signs after use, even if it's a vanishing spell, it's impossible to make the foundation disappear." ”

Then Prince Tukamon pointed in one direction and said loudly: "Look there! Is there something. Then they looked in that direction, and saw a sand dune where something seemed to be buried by sand, but there was a little white thing leaking out.

So everyone walked in that direction, and when the five of them got closer, they saw Lord Ajers wave his hand lightly, and in an instant, the sand was blown away, leaking out what was buried inside.

It turned out to be the bones of three lizard-camels.

I saw that these three skeletons were not only carrying backpacks, but also equipped with a pair of light armor. Seeing this, Prince Tukamon hurriedly squatted down to check, and after a while, he said solemnly: "It's a reconnaissance cavalry." ”

Then he raised his head and looked around and said, "No, it is impossible for the scout cavalry to leave their horses." The bones of these horses are very intact, not like they were attacked, like they died of natural causes. Where did those three cavalrymen go? ”

Tika thought for a moment and asked, "Could it be that they also explored on foot because the lizards refused to advance?" General Helem nodded and said, "It looks like this, it's very likely that they went to investigate something and never came back." ”

When Pesmona heard this, she hurriedly asked, "But where did they go?" It's like it's gone, is it hidden? ”

"That's right!" At this time, Lord Ajers suddenly thought of something, turned suddenly, looked in the direction of the original town, and said, "We all thought that what we didn't have was gone, but it was probably hidden. As soon as the words fell, I saw him wave his arm suddenly, and in an instant, a beam of light flew out.

With a loud bang, the beam slammed into some kind of barrier, and the barrier shook like a wave.

Lord Ajers smiled and said, "The city of Melia has not disappeared, but has been hidden by a barrier. As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his arm again, and several beams of light flew out quickly, shattering the barrier in an instant.

The entire barrier shattered like glass and turned to ashes.

And the city of Melia immediately appeared in front of everyone.

When everyone saw Melia City, they let out an exclamation, only to see that the originally prosperous Melia City had turned into a ruin at this time.

Ruined walls, collapsed and broken city gates, a death-like tranquility.

Everyone slowly came to the city wall, and General Helem raised his head to look at the traces on the city wall, and said solemnly: "Look at the obvious fire marks on the wall, it should be attacked by something, or the soldiers defending the city are defending something with a fire charm." He looked around as he spoke.

At this time, Lord Ajers looked down at the ground, and saw that the ground was covered with black sand. Seeing this, Pesmona couldn't help but be a little surprised and asked, "Father, this sand is the same as the one left by the dried corpses we met last time." When Tika heard this, he asked seriously, "What kind of corpse?" ”

Prince Tukamon replied solemnly: "I was resting in the city of Melia at the time, but I was attacked in the middle of the night. The attackers attacked the guards like dried corpses, weapons in hand, and when they were eliminated, they would turn into this black sand. ”

Tika asked solemnly, "Do the king and queen know about the dried corpse?" Prince Tukamon nodded and replied, "They do, but they don't want to say more. ”

Then he looked around and said, "Looking at the situation outside the city walls, these dried corpses seem to be very numerous. General Helem said, "All right, let's go into the city." ”

When they reached the city gate, they saw the corpses of many dwarven soldiers, dressed in centuries-old armor, and even though they had turned into dried corpses, they still held weapons.

Pesmona found their bodies incomplete, as if they had been torn apart by something, and their armor was riddled with holes.

Then Tika asked, "Did you say that the three scouts also discovered the hidden city of Melia?" Upon hearing Tika's question, General Helem immediately drew his sword and said, "Be vigilant, everyone, if this is the case, then it means that there is something dangerous in the city." ”

When Pesmona heard this, she also took out her wand and held it in her hand, and looked around vigilantly, at this time she noticed that Tika had taken out the two scimitars behind her waist at some point, and she found that these scimitars seemed to be cracked, and there were many cracks in them.

In this way, everyone cautiously walked into the city of Melia.
