Ilsa's expression was somewhat worried.

Bai Ye smiled freely: "Don't worry, I'll be cautious." ”

"In addition, I want to trouble you with one thing, can you help me change my appearance? I can't go there in my own form to avoid getting into trouble. ”

This is also a decision made by Bai Ye after careful consideration. He didn't know what had happened to him in Blackwater, and it was best not to reveal his true appearance.

In this way, if something happens, you can avoid a lot of trouble.

Ilsa nodded, helping Bai Ye transform, and her appearance was completely different from what she was now. is a middle-aged man who looks very ordinary. Height and weight are averages, try not to attract the attention of others.

Even the clothes are the most common gray-black tones, and the texture is ordinary.

Let the white night keep the low profile as much as possible.

White Night moved a little. Although his face has changed significantly, Ilsa has not changed most of the body structure, which allows him to play to his fullest when fighting, because this body is not much different from his own body.

White Night thanked Ilsa, and prepared some more food and plenty of water to put in his inventory.

I have stored about a month's worth of servings. These things were prepared to prevent him from being able to eat normal people's food and drink normal water in a place like Blackwater Town. It can also be used for long-distance travel.

Especially moisture, which is even more critical. It's not just the water you need to survive. White Night's [Gray Blade] is a strange item that also needs to be replenished every three hours. In order to prevent him from hurting himself. White nights should be prepared with enough water.

After thorough preparation, White Night leaves the apartment and heads to the eerie gathering place, Blackwater!

He took a car and took him to the west of Hongcheng.

Outside here is the industrial park, and a large area is a fully automated factory, which is rarely populated. Bai Ye let the taxi stop here, and he continued on foot.

After a long journey, seeing that the surroundings were desolate, White Night took out his car from his inventory. Gallop all the way into the distance.

Further west of the industrial park is a very desolate desert area. Originally not a desert, but a forest, it was transformed into its current state after being over-harvested by an industrial park. The barren grass turned into the ground, and the yellow sand rolled.

The good thing is that there won't be anyone here anymore. Along the way, it seems that on both sides, there are large areas of desolate flat land, with no residences and no people.

It is said that an industrial park will be planned in the future, and the unmanned factory will be laid all the way to a further place. From now on, it will be a vast steel jungle, not yellow sand.

Vehicles on the road, except for those large trucks that specialize in transporting goods, rarely see private vehicles moving. Even when entering Hongcheng from other places, they rarely choose this direction.

The journey of the White Nights was quite smooth. I drove all the way and didn't encounter anything. He combined the map Emma had given him with the navigation on the vehicle.

One hundred and thirty kilometers, on a deserted road, basically two hours to get to the neighborhood.

But here, there is still no trace of the town in the white night. There is a vast expanse of yellow sand everywhere.

If there is a small town, you can see it at a glance. It simply won't be like it is now, nothing was found.

But what is shown on the map is not far ahead?

Bai Ye thought about it, after all, this place was a "weird gathering place", not an ordinary small town.

Maybe it's hidden in front of you. He thought to himself.

Bai Ye was patient and continued to drive forward.

Further on, a different scene finally emerged: trees appeared on both sides of the road. While many have withered, many more are lush.

As he went, the trees grew more and more luxuriant.

White Night soon saw a fork in the road: it was a crossroads. There are still very few cars coming from my own direction, but there are more cars from the other three directions. There is a lot of traffic from the south to the north, and there are even some shops on the side of the road. For example, what kind of restaurant, car repair shop, etc. A scene full of life.

After a long time of baptism in yellow sand, Bai Ye now feels much more comfortable when he sees such a crowd.

However, such a place is obviously not Blackwater. Hakuya decided to ask around to see if there were any clues from the people here.

He found a small supermarket and went in to buy some water and food. Coming to the cash register, Bai Ye asked seemingly casually: "Boss, is there any town nearby or something?" ”

"I'm traveling from Hongcheng. I didn't expect that there was nothing nearby, so I just found a place to rest for a while. ”

At this time, he was honest and honest, and what he said was very convincing.

The boss glanced at Bai Ye a few times and said with a smile: "Dude, you are really interested." It's a pity that the tour chose the wrong place, and this neighborhood can be called a place where birds don't. Not to mention a small town, there is not even a village. ”

"If I was trying to make money, I wouldn't have opened a store here. I'm bored to death every day. ”

Bai Ye suddenly smiled like a realization: "That's right, you know it's still the boss." I didn't do a strategy before I came out, so I was careless. ”

"And what's the place to go west? Are there any attractions or something? ”

The boss listened and looked in the direction of the west: "Over there?" It is a long way to go, estimated to be hundreds of kilometers to get to the next city! ”

"As for the view, there is no view at all. It is said that there seems to be a forest over there, but what is there to see about the woods? You say yes or no! ”

Bai Ye smiled innocently: "That's it, boss, what you said is too right." I'll go back and forget it, although Hongcheng is boring, at least there are some entertainment items. ”

He chatted with the boss a few more words, and then turned back to get into the car with his things.

Looking at the navigation in the car, combined with what the boss just said.

There are no clues about Blackwater.

The map range given by [Emma] is a circle. Within the circle is where Blackwater is expected to be.

At this time, the white night was already on the edge of the circle. The diameter of the entire circle is about ten kilometers, and going out to a city of hundreds of kilometers is definitely not his destination.

Where is that?

According to the boss, walking through this intersection, there is still nothing ahead, just more trees. It's just that there are some woods on the west side.

The only clue now is the woods.

White Night started the car and decided to go in the direction of the woods.

Perhaps, the unknown "Blackwater Town" is hidden in that forest, and it may not be said.

Driving all the way, Bai Ye was keenly aware that there were more and more trees on the side of the road. At first, it was still sparse, but later it could even obscure his vision, so that he could not see the scenery in the distance.

In order not to miss the possible location of Blackwater Town, every time Bai Ye drove a section, he had to get out of the car to check it out, and go to both sides of the road to see the scenery in the distance.

This slowed him down considerably. The speed of tens of kilometers per hour or even close to a hundred kilometers can quickly find the range of the circle. It's now more than a tenth slower.

Seeing that he was about to reach the other edge of the circle, Bai Ye still didn't find any clues.

He wondered in his heart, this is strange!

Could it be that this so-called Blackwater Town is invisible?

Or, like weird creations, you need to open the data perspective to see it?

But [Emma]'s information says that there are many people who have strayed into Blackwater Town, and they are all ordinary people. Before the Night City game became popular, there were already legends about Blackwater. This guess of White Night is almost impossible.

Only places that ordinary people can see can let them walk in.

What's going on here?

Is there something wrong with Emma's information?

But the accuracy of [Emma]'s intelligence is definitely not a joke, and it may be much more complete than the relevant information that Bai Ye himself has sorted out.

You know, [Emma] is a highly intelligent artificial intelligence, and she has absorbed a lot of information in the cyberspace. With his analysis and processing speed, the data absorbed in one day may not be digested by a person in ten years.

The vast amount of information on the Internet is a fragment of data in the eyes of [Emma], and as long as it is absorbed, it can be mastered.

Moreover, she is also extremely capable of error correction. Problematic information, conflicting information, and false information can be picked out and discarded, leaving only the most authentic and reliable information.

Bai Ye dared to say that there was no more comprehensive information and information that he could access at the moment than [Emma].

Then move on. If you can't find anything in the whole area, go back and ask.

Bai Ye sighed and continued to drive.

But this time, as if he had come and gone, he hadn't gone far before he saw two forks in the road!

Huh.

This surprised him quite a bit!

On his own map, as well as on the map given by [Emma], there is no fork in the road here!

Just a boulevard, keep moving forward!

Bai Ye looked at the fork in the road in front of him. One is to continue the road that you are walking, with a wide explanation, with vehicles coming and going, and the direction is exactly the same as marked on the map. Obviously, this is the normal path that is already in place.

The other road, on the other hand, is a trail.

Although the trail is smooth, it is narrow, and you can only pass one car at a time.

Bai Ye thought about it, this path was probably the kind of road he thought it was.

The road to Blackwater!

He looked at the map, and it was almost at the edge of the range given by [Emma] as a "weird gathering place". Go further and you're out of the circle.

He got out of the car and put it in his inventory while no one was around.

Bai Ye didn't rush in, he stood near the fork in the road. Watch the passing cars come and go.

There is a constant stream of vehicles around. But no matter what car is, it is as if it can't see the nearby fork in the road, and it is driving on the main road. Bai Ye waited for nearly twenty minutes, and not even a single car hesitated!

That's not normal. With so many cars, there must be people who are not familiar with the road conditions and don't know that there are forks in the road. They don't even hesitate, as if they can't see a fork in the road?

Bai Ye is sure that there must be something wrong with this path!

Just as he was about to step on the path, he found an old man who walked out of the path slowly!

Bai Ye's heart suddenly became vigilant, this old man was very likely to be a member of "Blackwater Town"! What is the purpose of his coming out at this time? Are you coming for yourself?

I can't help but be cautious in the white night, mainly because the things related to these weird creations are extremely dangerous and quite weird. If he is not vigilant, he is likely to suffer a big loss.

He looked at the old man and took the initiative to greet him and asked, "Old man! Where does the path lead ahead? ”

Take the initiative and see how this old man deals with himself!

The old man glanced up at Bai Ye, shook his head and said, "Don't go." Ahead is the guillotine road. ”

Guillotine road? Bai Ye's heart sank suddenly!

The old man continued: "After walking for a long time and reaching the end, I found that there was nothing in front of me. It took me nearly an hour to waste, and now I have to go back the way I came. ”

It turned out to be such a dead-end road.
