The first moment was bleak, as if the sun had not yet jumped over the mountain, and everything was covered with a deep paleness. But it only takes a moment for all the pipes and all the walls to be brightened by the subsequent light.

The texture of the pipes, or the carvings on the human body, are all clear.

Before that, Hatsukumo, who was speeding close to the ground, had already grabbed the waist of the lens barrel man.

When she looked up, she couldn't see the head of the mirror tube, and her gaze was met by a pair of blood-colored eyes. It was the gear man attached to the back of Jing Yujiu, his head turned one hundred and eighty degrees, and he looked coldly at her from the shoulder of the mirror tube man who had a relationship with her.

The individual in the skin of an owl is called a rakhan.

A cogwheel man who preaches the theory of the moon's annihilation.

"See you again, Outlander."

As he spoke, the man's hands stretched out from under Jing Yujiu's open armpits towards Chu Yun. The metal and structure used in these hands used to dig through the earth and witness the secrets of the world in the depths of the earth, and later used for hunting to hunt countless creatures living in the wilderness.

But Hatsuyun only lightly raised his right hand to try to block. In an instant, Yang Qian's claws touched Hatsuyun's skin, and he felt a terrible pressure.

The gear man immediately showed a surprised expression, and said in disbelief:

"Emissary—why are you here?"

Was it blown here by the wind and rain of the mountains? Or was he driven out of his territory by some intruding and domineering master?

Before he could ask his question, the invisible beam of light had already hit the wall of Azure Lapis Illuminaire, and the reaction of the characteristics transmitted from Azure Lapis made Jing Yujiu retreat, and Yang Qian was also forced to adjust his position.

Dozens, perhaps dozens, countless lenses regained the light from the outside world, and the lens barrel man saw what had been thrown as if it were breathing and pumping air.

"It's ...... What's the heart? ”

He let out a grunting and confused sound.

The light was beside the prison, and there was an abnormal twist and turn, sweeping all the way through the azure gold wall, shining in the distance, and dangerously passing over Gu Chuan's face. At that time, Gu Chuan didn't pay attention to the situation in the outside world at all, he knew very clearly that his attention was too late, if he died, he would be dead, if he was still conscious and still doing things, it meant that he was not hit.

At that time, the young man just rolled forward desperately according to the blind spot of the position of the lens barrel according to his imagination.

It wasn't until the light was meandering and his consciousness was still there that he understood that he wasn't dead.

He had only a fraction of a second to observe what was happening in the narrow passage now, and saw that he was already approaching Kyogaku, in front of the gearman's side. The power of the barrel was passing past him, turning to the other side due to the interference of the hell.

So he slammed into Kyung's head.

As long as the barrel continues to be uncontrolled, the two men remain under threat.

To win this battle, the goal is actually very simple. That is to control Kyo Kyu's head, and in this confined space...... Actively control the direction of light.

Hatsuyun can also understand this point of view. Her wrestling with Yang Qian is frozen. So she didn't continue, but suddenly retreated, causing the overexerted Yang Qian to suddenly lose balance. Then, she pounced on the two coggled men. Jing Yujiu suddenly let out a strange scream, and his original attempt to change the direction of the lens barrel failed, and he fell to the ground with Yang Qian.

This kind of action only happened before and after a thought, and the overflowing glimmer of light permeated the interior of the passage, and at that time, the gear people on the outside of the passage also saw the situation on the inside of the passage, but they were close to Jing Yujiu's thoughts, and they were unwilling to rush to this dangerous and uncontrolled field.

Something transparent that did not have a shape slipped all the way from the refraction of a dozen lenses, slid all the way as they fell, hitting the top plate. The top plate was not made of special material, and a finger-sized hole was eliminated in just a moment.

Immediately afterward, the power emitted by the mirror tube entered the universe far away, all the way to the top of the city, causing a little yellow sand to fall up and down. The black wind then shook and blew into the turbid air outside, so that the inside and outside were once again connected on a very small level.

The chickens floating in the air continue to ripple with the light, absorbing air, dust, and fragments of the boundless material that have been hit by the lens barrel, and walking against the light.

At this moment, the young man's body was in the flutter, and he fell to Jing Yujiu's side, holding down one of his hands, and he grabbed his head with all his might. Just as he grabbed this mirror tube, the huge vicarious force that came out of Jing Yujiu's neck made the young man's mouth numb, and he almost wanted to get rid of it.

"Do you want to control me?"

The mirror tube man said coldly.

He didn't know where Kyokyo was coming from.

"I didn't think about controlling anyone...... "Jing Yujiu's hand was moving, so Gu Chuan, who was pressing on his hand, was also forced to sweep a few arcs across the ground, "But that doesn't include those who obstruct me!" ”

The brace on Kyokaku's neck had already been abnormal during the attack of the Antlers, and now it was even more difficult to control himself. Seeing that the situation was not good, Yang Qian also grabbed the mirror barrel with his own hand from under Jing Yuanjiu's body, and assisted Jing Yuanjiu to control the direction of the lens barrel!

But Hatsuyun was falling on Kyung Yu-ko's body.

She grabbed the knuckles of her hand with one hand, trying to snatch him away from the barrel. The tremendous force made Yang Qian feel unprecedented pain. He opened his blood-colored eyes and looked at the stranger in bewilderment:

"Are you a huái bear or a heavy beast?"

Chu Yun didn't know what he was talking about, so he only said:

"My name is Hatsuun."

Things have turned out beyond the expectations of all four men. The four of them scuffled together, all their strength concentrated on the only tube, causing the tube to turn again, and the light twisted and turned again into the wall with a terrible loud noise. Vast expanses of steel and metal were reduced to smoke and smoke erupted from the scorching hole.

None of this exists in a stable manner.

"Aren't you stopping? Kyo Kyo Koo! ”

The great force destroyed the structure of the building, and boundless debris floated in and smashed on the bodies of the strife, telling the direction of an ominous story.

"Child......" out of nowhere, the man with the lens let out a terrible laugh. It said contemptuously, "I have nothing to fear. ”

The beast that followed his mind kept turning the mirror barrel in the direction of Gu Chuan and Chu Yun.

Gu Chuan's wrists were pressed against his chest under the shock of the lens barrel, almost broken. And the invisible force brushed the edge of his clothes.

Suddenly, a wisp of gray smoke came out of his sleeve, and a bloody streak appeared.

The injury is sobering. The young man gritted his teeth, knowing that he had reached the most dangerous and critical moment, he suddenly changed his strength, causing the strength that Jing Yujiu pressed over to suddenly fail. The barrel suddenly turned around and shot towards the surface not far away.

The entire channel is oscillating.

The structures of rock and steel, gears and shafts have been hit like never before. The black silt that had filled the entire space of the color-changing stone was shaken up by the invisible light, and flew like a wave from the gap, submerging the bodies of the four people.

Black smoke from the mud flew across their eyes.

Gu Chuan let go of a hand and stretched out to Chu Yun. Hatsuyun grabbed it violently. The lens barrel man is about to take advantage of this change and reverse the direction of the lens barrel again!

But at this moment, the inner wall of the color-changing stone space was broken by the light of the lens tube...... It's just like it was at the beginning.

A large expanse of black mud enveloped the four people towards the lower and inner sides of the city of answers, drowning countless gears that had stopped along the way, as if a flood had rushed into the city, encountering countless obstacles.

The gear structure on the inside of the floor in this area collapsed.

They rolled deeper into the area.

Until one of the walls was torn apart and crumbled like earth pouring through a retaining wall, and the strange stagnant liquid flowed into it. After a while, Gu Chuan and Chu Yun emerged from it.

At that time, Gu Chuan was in a state of almost unable to move for a while, and Chu Yun propped up his body and hurriedly walked away with him.

"We ...... Where is it? ”

The young man asked.

"I don't know......," Hatsuyun said, "we're somewhere we've never been." ”

"Is there a sign?"

"Yes."

Hatsuyun glanced around, and in the darkness he saw a cross carved into the wall.

"That's the fourth problem area."

It is said that Zijin was originally the one who answered the question in the fourth question area. The fourth question they are committed to answering is what we can choose to do.

There are hardly any gear people here. Gu Chuan's recovery ability has become extremely strong somewhere, he can move a little, so he walks by himself, he smells some kind of special fragrance here, and he even sees that there are also many gear people with plaque lying here.

The Gear Men here all seem to be clad in human skins, and at first glance, they think they're back in some gloomy alley in Sunset City.

Just by looking closely, you can see that the glass-like eyes and the various mechanical devices that occasionally peek out of the skin prove that they are not human, but just gear people wearing human skin like Zijin Ziyuan.

The roads here are as accessible as the upper ones, but there are many lowered gates, which hinder Chu Yun and Gu Chuan's exploration. They found that they ended up with only two paths.

One is forward and one is backward.

There was also a road that did not count as a road, the cracked and broken walls of the city from which they came.

They haven't been here.

Therefore, the road forward or backward is a new path.

As they walked along the road, they saw more and more cogwheel people falling on all sides.

"There's been a fight here."

Gu Chuan judged.

Chu Yun nodded as if he was not listening. Her eyes were always on the Gearman's appearance, and she was pondering a serious question - she seemed to have a slight resemblance to the Gearman in human skin.

It's just that one is a splicing of different things, while the other is a pure cog in human skin.

This conclusion was rare and confusing her.

On both sides of the long road, a dozen gearmen were densely piled up, as if they had been swept aside. The geared gate in front of it has a dense mycelium growing on it.

Gu Chuan stiffened his head and said:

"Let's move on."

"Okay."

Hatsuun walked over to the gear door, where a dozen sleeping gear men lay at her feet. She saw that the plaque on the cogwheel men had spread together, as if they were glued together.

She carefully avoided the eerie thing and tried to push open the door of the gears. The door of the gears rattled and began to turn.

There was a reddish-orange light leaking out of it, a reddish-orange light that was shaking.

The moment the door opened, they thought they had seen an abstract painting, a painting of upside-down trees that were growing on the wall and reflecting dusk in the light, a bit like yellowish and black teeth, and like a corner with dark green mold spots.

Gu Chuan could see that there should have been no bacteria growing on this wall, and these were all attached in a short period of time.

The colony was so lush that mushrooms grew out of the wall, like a miniature jungle, so that everything on the wall was lost to what it should be, and only these dense living creatures were stretching their bodies. The coiled scars, like dancing flames, and the swirling starry sky, restless, tangled, coiled, and crazy. The densest places even changed color, from dusk to total black, like several terrifying eyes.

"What the hell is this?"

Gu Chuan muttered.

There are many pillars in the room, and some fungus has grown on them. These pillars are not made of metal and have no gears...... It's all stone, it's all pure stone pillars.

"I don't know what it is now......"

A voice came from behind Gu Chuan.

Gu Chuan was shocked, thinking that Jing Yujiu was not dead, and chased after him, he quickly turned his head, but saw an unexpectedly pretty figure standing at the door.

It was Ziyuan dressed in human skin and clothes.

Hatsuyun called out Ziyuan's name.

Her long beautiful hair went over her shoulders. She trembled slightly at the cries of the first clouds, like a small flower swaying in the wind, hanging and trembling powerlessly on the edge of the stone, and the first emotion she felt was fear, as if she were enduring some great and unimaginable fear. This was the first time Gu Chuan had fully appreciated the appearance of this gear man in human skin. He saw that her mouth, her beautiful glass-like eyes, and other bare skin were covered with a layer of clear tape. The tape has a hint of dark green.

This tape may have been used as a test strip in the previous year.

"How did you get here?"

Gu Chuan asked cautiously.

According to Gu Chuan's understanding of Ziyuan, she should still be burying herself in the haystack.

Ziyuan stood in the doorway, turned his head sideways, and replied in a low voice:

"I've been called by the Naturalist Mentor, and he's asking all the Gearmen who are still awake to rush to the innermost side as soon as possible. So, I came over. ”

Gu Chuan understood why Ziyuan no longer pretended to be dead. She will not resist the orders of her mentors. The naturalist is actively mobilizing the remaining cogwheel people.

"And what was this wall originally?"

Ziyuan stared at the wall with countless plaques and said:

"This wall was supposed to be the essence of Teacher Yuyu...... Now, Mentor Yuyu is probably also infected by these strange spores that float in the air. Yuyu's resistance is the same as that of ordinary gear people. But...... It shouldn't matter. The rebels couldn't have the ability to kill the Mentor, they didn't dare, the Mentor just fell asleep. ”

The evidence lies in the fact that the lifting of the gates of the various passages is still in progress, indicating that the ability of Mentor Yuyu to influence the entire solution city is still there.

Gu Chuan didn't dare to go up and touch it, so he only wandered around this room.

"Do you know the way out?"

The naturalist tutor only instructed Ziyuan to come to the deepest part of the fourth problem area and rush to the aid of Tutor Yuyu. But after she saw Tutor Yuyu's current situation, she knew that she couldn't do anything, so she didn't want to do anything, she stayed there, and tended to play dead again.

She leaned against the door, just waiting for the incident to be over. She said:

"All the roads I know are closed."

These words disappointed Gu Chuan.

But then, Ziyuan said:

"But there's probably something you're looking for."

"What do I want?"

"Yuyu Mentor will keep all kinds of things, many things, and only Yuyu Tutor has the ability to take care of and keep them. The pilot light of the ghost ship you captured may be nearby, or somewhere underground. Ziyuan said.

These words surprised the young man to the extreme. Whenever possible, he would never want to give up the magical vehicle that could sail freely on the sandy sea with only light.

Gu Chuan immediately looked at his feet.

Sure enough, the floor wasn't normal, it was hollow, with strange signs painted on each floor. The knowledge of these signs had surpassed the foundation of the language of the Answer City that Gu Chuan knew, and he couldn't understand it, so he could only half-guess and half-find it.

Quietly lift the floor, and you'll see something weird.

These strange things must be great strange things, or have very historical significance, but Gu Chuan didn't dare to touch any of them. Because the function of the strange thing is uncertain. For example, in mythology, if you touch it, you will be poisoned, or if you look at it, you will be petrified, and these strange phenomena can happen. All he and Hatsukumo needed to do was find the pilot light.

It's a terrible treasure trove built by the Cogwheel Guys, but unfortunately it has nothing to do with them.

He opened another stone plate with regret, only to see that there was only an ordinary rock in the lattice inside.

This stone is extraordinary, with its fractured surfaces, its broken and dirty with endless time, and some strange and strange etched traces, as if carrying countless history and time, telling myths that no one knows that have been forgotten by time.

Still, as ordinary as it looked, he thought, no one knew if it was some kind of curiosity.

The young man picked up the tiles he had lifted and tried to close them again. The worn stone slabs made a slight noise, like the eternal sound of the wind in this world.

At that time, the slate was halfway closed, but the young man, who was anxiously searching, suddenly discovered that the words engraved on the stone were something he knew.

His heart pounded, and he realized that it was an earlier, uncomplicated and simple Sunset City language, and that the handwriting was ancient, polished, as if it had gone through an unknown number of thousands of years. This means that in the past, there were people from Sunset City who came to the Great Wilderness. It's just that the gears aren't clear to people.

He saw two lines written on it.

The first line says children, do you think you've fled?

And the second line says that no one can escape this land, never.

At that time, the first quarter moon was still hanging in the northeast sky of the Great Wilderness, and its bright brilliance was still gently stretched out on the faint mountains, like a transparent veil.
