The moment I entered the ancient city, it was like being swallowed up by a huge mouth of the abyss, and with the roar of the sandstorm, I only felt that the world was turned upside down.

The scene around him was like a washed oil canvas, blurred, and Su felt dizzy for a while, and it took a while to recover.

When he no longer felt dizzy, he landed on his feet, and he opened his eyes and looked at this ancient city-state that belonged to the gods.

Towering pyramids stand in front of you, surrounded by desert-like palaces and temples, and it's hard to think that these are relics from 10,000 years ago.

However, now it is deserted, the beams and pillars have collapsed, the main hall has collapsed, the steps have collapsed, and it looks desolate.

It's also reasonable, after all, when the kingdom of God disappeared overnight, it must have encountered an accident and fell into ruins as expected.

However, there is something very wrong.

Here, it is full of greenery, overgrown with plants and vines.

A city in the desert with overgrown weeds and flowers?

Su Ling walked over to a beam that fell on its side, wrapped around it with a rather tough green vine, clinging to the wall like a creeper.

He tried to touch the vine with his hands, and it felt so hard to the touch, like diamond marble.

"What is this?"

This is also too abnormal, the outside is full of yellow sand, but the inside is full of spring, and b here is isolated, there is no precipitation, how can the plants not die after 10,000 years, and even retain such tenacity?

Su Ling pulled out the token and entered his spiritual power, trying to get in touch with the queen to see if she could answer the strange things about this ancient city.

The token in the palm of his hand was slightly hot, and there was a murmur:

"Dut...... Toot ......"

It seems that the signal here is a bit bad, Su Ling tried to increase the input of spiritual power.

This time, I finally received a clear signal: "Tell me what you see in front of you, and I will answer it for you." ”

For some reason, Su Ling felt that this tone sounded a little wrong, but he didn't think much about it and expressed his doubts.

"......" The voice hesitated for a moment, and then slowly said, "I don't know much about it, but I think it has something to do with the demise of the gods." ”

Su Ling's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly asked, "What?" ”

The voice said faintly: "Ten thousand years ago, Zeta was also a rich land, but it turned into a sea of sand overnight, and there is no trace of the civilization created by the gods. ”

Su Ling touched his chin, observed these vines all over the hall for a while, and didn't find any reason, so he decided to move on.

"Asha?"

He called out Asha's name, only to find that there was no one around.

This girl has the ability to mimic, and she can usually blend in with the environment, but he will still come out when he shouts, but now there is no movement at all.

Su Ling shuddered, the empty ruins and barren weeds were a little seeping.

Tried to ask the queen about Asha's movements, but the token suddenly fell silent and did not respond.

“......”

The token in his hand was originally a channel to connect with the outside world to obtain information, and now he can clearly feel that his connection with the other end of the token has been unilaterally "cut off".

"Tsk, haunted, huh?"

Su Ling pursed his lips, and a black mist appeared on his body.

The black mist condensed into a human form, and as soon as the rift girl and Mia came out, they exhaled: "Ah, I can finally come out and breathe." ”

Since no one else was present, it didn't matter if Mia and the others came out.

Hanako and Mercury Sand are both dissatisfied: "Why don't you let us out?" ”

Su Lingyi said righteously: "Five people are too crowded, besides, I don't worry about you two." ”

A heartless little madman and a sick girl who thinks about the CPU all the time, uh, it's better to lock it up.

Not only do the rip women know how to heal, but they also have a lot of knowledge, and they may be able to help them solve some problems.

Mia, not to mention, a cute Lori Scout you deserve it.

"Woo......"

Obviously, Hanako and the two knew that they were doing a disservice when they came out, so they simply stopped answering as an ostrich and honestly acted as an atmosphere group to tell jokes.

"Mia, can you explore the area ahead?"

Su Ling motioned for little Lori to act as a scout, and Mia pretended to raise her hand and make a cute military salute: "Received, sir!" ”

Lori, the ghost, uses a wall-piercing spell to explore this unknown ruin.

Su Ling turned his head to look at the rift girl: "Qiuzi, do you have an image of these plants?" ”

The Rift Girl walked up to a vine, black gas came out of her fingertips, and when she touched the vine, the hard plant was torn apart.

She took off part of the rhizome and looked at it for a long time, then frowned: "Sorry, doctor, I haven't seen this plant in any books, it's a bit like humulus, it's amazing in branching and regeneration, but it's far more tenacious, maybe I've seen too little, or maybe it's an ancient variety that hasn't been discovered." ”

Okay, Su Ling sighed, the rift girl didn't know, so the way, he was a psychologist, not a botanist.

Seeing that he was disappointed, the rift girl hurriedly saved: "Doctor, but I still found something, these vines are taproot structures, that is, they must have grown from one of the most primitive rhizomes, if this is the case, I am afraid that this ruin was destroyed by a towering plant." ”

Su Ling looked at the vines and weeds around him, and felt a little frightened.

The city is the size of a modern megacity, what plant can occupy such a huge area?

Next, the two of them investigated the surroundings, and Su Ling found that the place was dilapidated, not only the buildings were destroyed, but there was not even a breath of life.

It was as if everyone had disappeared in an instant.

If it is destroyed by a disaster, there must be some corpses left, right? Bones, bloodstains, footprints...... Not a single one remained.

What is the cause of the miracle?

While he was pondering, the Rift Girl suddenly beckoned to him, "Doctor, here's a discovery!" ”

Su Ling perked up and quickly ran over.

Standing in front of an abandoned altar, the Rift Girl crouched down and pointed ahead: "Look ......"

Su Ling looked in the direction she was pointing and saw a huge flower, shaped like a dandelion, crumbling and red.

This red dandelion, rooted in the center of the altar, grew from the collapsed bricks, but had withered.

"Is this, a withered dandelion?" Su Ling looked at the Rip Girl in confusion, hoping that she would explain.

"No," said the Rip Girl gravely, "it's a fungus that looks like a dandelion, and the seeds you see are actually spores." ”

"Fungus?" Su Ling didn't seem to understand, "Mushrooms? ”

The Rip Girl gave him a blank look: "Not all fungal aggregates are mushrooms...... But it's so unusual for this plant to appear here. ”

"Why?" Su Ling couldn't figure out what was so strange about a mushroom.

The Ripper lifted the fallen stone and pointed to the withered mushroom rhizome: "You see, it is rooted in the center of the altar, and under the altar there are metals and stones, and there is simply not enough inorganic and organic matter for it to grow, that is, there must be something to nourish these fungi!" ”

Su Ling immediately reacted: "You mean? ”

The Rift Girl nodded: "Maybe these fungi are the culprits that led to the destruction of the Kingdom of God, they maintain their own development by absorbing the life force of the creatures around them, and those vines are estimated to be similar, the relationship between the two is not clear for the time being, but it is definitely related." ”

Su Ling suddenly looked at the withered "mushroom" vigilantly, for fear that it would come back to life and eat it for himself.

It's a bit ridiculous that the glorious civilization of God has been destroyed by vines and mushrooms, but now he can't afford to slack off.

Fortunately, after ten thousand years, any mushroom has also withered, and after confirming that there is no danger, Su Ling stepped over the mushroom and looked at the information around the altar.

I didn't expect to find any useful news, but I didn't think he would find it.

A mural, a mural depicting sacrifices, carries the memories of the civilization of the past.
