Chapter 11: The Town in the Picture
As soon as he entered the strange painting, Xia Le did not appear in the peaceful countryside just now, but stood in a small town full of light mist.
The town looks Western-style and the architecture is entirely American.
Xia Le opened his treacherous domain and immediately found that his treacherous domain was suppressed.
Originally, his treacherous realm was wide enough to envelop most of the city, and it was not a problem to envelop a small town.
Now his ghost domain spread out only a hundred meters in radius, and it was very compressed.
Retracting the Domain, Xia Le looked around and found himself standing at a crossroads.
He felt a sense of peeping, but it wasn't from the supernatural.
There were a lot of living people in the buildings on both sides of the intersection, and they were looking at themselves through the windows.
A blonde Western woman in a sweatshirt looked at Xia Le, who was standing motionless at the crossroads, with a look of horror and sympathy in her eyes.
"Is it someone who has just entered this town? Then he's dead. The Grim Reaper at the crossroads won't let him go! β
Behind her, a man lying on the ground with his right arm twisted like a twist smiled bitterly.
"We've already killed so many people to escape from this weird town, and even if we survive today, we don't know if there's tomorrow."
Another man next to him encouraged him.
"Bird, think of your wife, Enrika! Think of the cute little Jenny! Come on! We'll get out! β
Not long after, under the gaze of the people around him, a figure wearing a black hooded robe, with his head hidden in the shadows, but carrying a cross behind his back, his hands and body were firmly tied to the cross with iron chains.
Xia Le could see that his legs had also been bound by iron chains before, but he didn't know who untied them, and at this time, two iron chains were held on the ground, making a very obvious sound when they rubbed against the ground.
Before that, he was in a state where his feet were off the ground, tied to the cross behind him, and erected high.
This is supposed to be someone who was imprisoned and didn't know how to get out.
After coming to Xia Le, this figure turned around slowly.
The next moment, he stepped on the ground with both feet, jumped up high, and slammed into him with his back to Xia Le, carrying the cross on his back.
Needless to say, this cross must be some kind of supernatural object.
Xia Le didn't dare to make a hard connection, opened the ghost domain, and in an instant, his figure appeared a hundred meters away from this terrifying place.
Looking at this scene, the people in the buildings on both sides exclaimed.
"Oh my God, what is this?"
βKongFuοΌβ
"That's not right! Could it be that he, like the Grim Reaper on the cross, is not a human being? β
But Xia Le had just teleported a hundred meters, and was immediately shocked to find that this trick carrying the cross was actually floating in mid-air in a very unscientific posture, and rushed towards him unabated.
In the process, his speed even increased, and his power seemed to increase a lot.
Xia Le's pupils shrank.
"Is this tracking or must-hit?"
He wiped his left hand around his waist, took out a 4 yuan bill, and threw it at the trick in front of him.
After the 4 yuan note was attached to Li Wei's body, his speed immediately became slow.
At this moment, Xia Le threw out the tricky rope in his hand again, tying the tricky head and the cross behind him.
The treacherous movements slowed down again, but they were not completely suppressed, but still approached Xia Le in a floating state.
Obviously, the cross behind this trick is quite good, and it can even resist some of the trick's strength.
Xia Le narrowed his eyes, opened the treacherous domain, and engulfed the cross.
In the darkness of the realm, seven treacherous children suddenly appeared, and at the same time launched a fierce attack on the cross.
There was a strange boy who looked directly at the cross, and a rotten supernatural power was transmitted out, corrupting his body.
A treacherous boy hugged the cross's treacherous body, making his body heavy again, as if he was carrying a thousand burdens.
There are also a few treacherous boys lying on this cross, and when they open their mouths, they are a fierce show, which has the meaning of eating him alive.
Under Xia Le's frantic attack, the cross's treacherous body was quickly disintegrated by the treacherous children.
Soon, the treacherous body broke away from the cross behind it and was destroyed by the treacherous boys in a very brutal way.
Xia Le reached out and pressed it on the cross, using the power of Qian Wei to test its ability.
Cross: A cross with a must-hit effect, which can temporarily suppress the supernatural spirit of the trick after hitting it, worth 18 yuan.
"18 yuan?"
This price shocked Xia Le.
Taiping Ancient Town's coffin that can suppress itself after death is also at this price.
So this cross is a supernatural object on the same level as the coffin?
"Good stuff!"
Charlotte put the rope around her waist like a belt again, grabbed the iron rope from the cross with her right hand, and lifted it up.
I don't know what material this cross is made of, and its appearance is silvery-white, as if it is made of silver, and the weight is really not light.
Silver has long been said to have the effect of warding off evil spirits in the West.
Even if Xia Le devoured so many tricks with the Hunger Trick, it still felt very heavy to lift this cross with one hand, no wonder he would be tied to this trick as a restriction.
Grabbing the chains, Xia Le tried to wave the cross in his hand, only to feel that it was full of weight, not weaker than an ordinary hammer and heavy axe.
And when this cross is not in use, you can tie it behind you with a treacherous rope, and when you want to use it, you can grab the chain and throw the cross out, which feels quite good.
Xia Le retrieved the boy he had just released, and continued to wait in place with the cross on his back, while also digesting the cross that had been recovered with the boy.
This cross-bearing trick is quite good, and after being devoured by Xia Le, it actually made his belly grow 15 centimeters, which is stronger than the dead man's head he harvested before.
Xia Le extremely suspected that this was a ghost rider during the Republic of China, and even tied himself to this cross in order to suppress himself after death.
If they have a coffin here, they use a coffin, and if there is no coffin in the West, then use a cross, no problem!
This made Xia Le look forward to what kind of abilities this trick could provide him.
As the pitch-black treacherous realm disappeared, Xia Le, who had an extra cross on his back, stood in place, but the original cross disappeared.
In the buildings on both sides, several small teams stood from the windows and watched Xia Le, and a heated debate ensued.
"Are you going to reach him? He looks like he's a human! β
But there are also those who disagree.
"Wait a minute, he doesn't have to be human."
"How could humanity defeat that cross Grim Reaper!"
"No, he's a trickster!"
One of the young men seemed to really know something, and said excitedly.
"I've heard my cousin who drives a billionaire car say that there is a kind of person in this world who has mastered superpowers, called the trickster! They rely on harnessing the tricks, gaining the power of the tricks and fighting the tricks. This gentleman must be a powerful trickster! He had just conquered the cross! β
Although they said that, none of these people had the intention of coming forward to contact Xia Le.
After all, this place is really terrifying, there are tricks at every turn, ordinary people are as fragile as paper, and they will die if they are not careful.
Someone was killed by going down the stairs, someone was killed by opening the door, someone was killed after sleeping at night.
Over time, these people have even become frightened birds. Even in the room, someone must keep a vigil to fall asleep.
They were going to wait and see what Xia Le would do next.
In an hour or so, this trick was digested by Xia Le.
He closed his eyes, sensing this terrifying supernatural ability, and suddenly opened his eyes with some surprise.
"It's floating?"
Flying has been one of the dreams of human beings since ancient times.
Although the Trickster can use the Trickster to keep himself in the air, it is not the same thing as flying.
Although floating and flying are also two different things, this is liftoff after all.
This supernatural ability allows Xia Le to float on his own.
Within ten meters of him as the center of the circle, once his distance from the ground exceeds the height of the others, the person who is surpassed will die.
"No wonder the trickster crushed himself with a cross, and at the same time bound his hands and feet so that he could not ascend to heaven. Otherwise, this is definitely an S-class supernatural event! Once he rises to a certain height, he is afraid that he will kill people on a large scale, and these people don't even know how to die. β
Xia Le felt that if he didn't know the other party's killing rules, he was afraid that he would be tricked if he accidentally ran into him.
After all, who knew that you had to surpass each other in height to be spared?
Charlotte waited in place for a few more hours, but the sky in the town did not change.
Everywhere is gray, and the visibility of ordinary people is less than 10 meters.
In this situation, once they encounter a trick, they may not be able to escape.
Suddenly, a boy snorted out of the air.
This is the trick boy who was left by Xia Le before and ate the trick painting.
When this tricky boy returned to Xia Le's body along with some of the tricky spirits, Xia Le suddenly felt that the range of the trick realm he could open had increased tenfold, reaching a radius of kilometers.
At the same time, within a certain range, if there are other sub-paintings of the trickery, Xia Le can also vaguely feel it.
For example, there are no sub-paintings in this town, which means that this is a closed area and there is no way to escape.
If you want to leave the world of trickery, you need to at least run out of this town.
And how could ordinary people run out of this treacherous town?
"I'm glad you met me."
This town is a cage for ordinary people, but it is just right for Xia Le.
The absence of a sub-art means that no one can bother him, and he can slowly clean up the town before moving on to the next map.
In a trick painting, the scene in each sub-painting is a new map.
Maybe you've just been in the middle of a small town, and you're in a high-rise building again.
When I took the elevator to the 29th floor, I could see the magnificent sea when I opened the door.
Xia Le opened the treacherous domain, and the pitch-black treacherous domain instantly eroded outward, covering a radius of thousands of kilometers.
More than a dozen treacherous children jumped out of the treacherous realm, stood in front of Xia Le, raised their heads and looked at Xia Le obediently.
If you are an ordinary person, you will be targeted by more than a dozen treacherous children with pale complexions, dark eyes and eyeballs, and they look exactly the same, and I am afraid that the feces and urine will be scared out.
But these treacherous children are all the offspring of Xia Le, and they are as commanding as arms.
"Take a break, stand upright!"
Looking at these treacherous boys, Xia Le nodded with satisfaction and commanded.
"Go clean up the surroundings, but don't kill people, just deal with tricks. Let's go! β
The treacherous boys couldn't speak, so they all nodded in unison, and then headed in all directions.
Outside Xia Le's treacherous domain, people could only see a black unidentified realm, and they didn't know what was going on at all, they were just terrified.
"It's over, I'm afraid the people inside are going to die!"
"I'll just say that guy isn't human! He's one of those monsters too! β
But in the Strange Domain, people didn't notice anything wrong, they just watched Xia Le suddenly see more than a dozen children suddenly appear next to him, and then quickly ran to the surrounding buildings.
Some people panicked, and some people planned to fight.
"He's up!"
"Shut the door!"
"Maybe we can talk to them a bit?"
There are many people who have become frightened birds in this strange town, and they don't want to meet the strange boy who doesn't look normal at first glance.
But there were also people who gritted their teeth and opened the door, trying to talk to the treacherous boy.
The blonde woman licked her lips, feeling nervous and her heart pounding.
But it was an opportunity to escape from the town, and she wasn't willing to give it up.
The blonde woman turned to the two people in the room.
"I went out and closed the door, and the code was Jenny. If no one says the code when you knock on the door, you can't open the door anyway! β
Seeing that the other party was like a last word, the man who twisted his right hand into a twisted flower struggled to stand up from the spot.
He leaned against the table and smiled palely at the other two.
"I'll go! One of my hands is useless, and living is a drag. β
As a result, the blonde woman glared fiercely at the seriously injured man.
"Shut up! What you have to do now is get some rest! I'm leaving. β
She opened the door to the office, flashed out quickly, and then slammed it shut.
Only the two big men in the room looked at each other.
β¦β¦
After leaving the room, the blonde woman looked around cautiously.
Although she wanted to escape from this terrifying town, she didn't want to die even more.
She had encountered a few monsters before, but she was so bold and careful that she even summed up some rules, and finally survived with two big men.
At that time, they were a tour group, a team of more than 20 people!
She stomped lightly on the ground, barely making a sound, and slowly, slowly approached her.
As a result, as soon as she walked around the corner, she suddenly collided with the strange boy head-on, and was about to scream.
The blonde woman decisively bit her index finger with her teeth, turning the fear and shouting in her heart into a deep tooth mark, suppressing the subconscious screaming with this sharp pain.
At the same time, the boy raised his head and looked at the blonde woman in front of him.
The two stared at each other silently for a few seconds, and the blonde woman let go of her teeth.
Her heart was beating violently, almost popping out of her chest, and she mustered up the courage to whisper to the strange boy.
"Hello?"
The boy still didn't make any other moves, just stared at the blonde woman with black-eyed eyes for a while, and then ran away quickly.
