Chapter 796: Xiao Chen's Discovery
On the outskirts of the town, you can still see some of the kingdom's troops, who should have come here to investigate, but there are very few people.
Xiao Chen didn't stop, and landed directly in the center of the town with Xue Wei Xuerui.
"Young master, I can't feel the breath of a living person?" Xue Wei swept away her mental power, shook her head and said.
Xiao Chen's gaze also swept around, he nodded, he also used his spiritual power just now to radiate the entire town, including tens of thousands of meters underground, the town was desolate, dead and silent, and there was indeed no trace of the breath of a living person.
"It's strange, how can tens of thousands of people disappear overnight, even if there is any demonic attack, there will be no movement, I think these houses are still intact. Xue Rui frowned.
"Let's go and see. Xiao Chen also felt strange.
He walked along the street with his two daughters, pushed open a house on the side of the street, and walked in, because the house had not been popular for more than a month, cobwebs had formed, and a rotten smell was permeating.
Xiao Chen walked around the room, carefully observing whether there were any signs of a fight, and finally came to the bedroom.
If all the people in Dam Town disappeared overnight that night, since it was night, everyone in the town should be sleeping.
In the bedroom was a wooden bed, covered with a layer of dusty bedding, Xiao Chen swept his eyes, and finally lifted the futon and muttered, "There is no trace of a fight......
"Young master, it's so strange. Xue Wei Xuerui also looked around.
"Is it really a ghost ......" A gust of yin wind blew in from outside the open door of the cave, Xue Wei Xuerui shuddered, although they were strong, but after all, they were women. I'm still scared of something weird.
"Ghosts?" Xiao Chen smiled and shook his head: "Ghosts are just souls, which can make tens of thousands of people disappear silently overnight, how strong this soul is, of course." It's not impossible to do it......"
At least Xiao Chen can do it himself, let the people in this town disappear overnight, as long as he uses his spiritual power to shock everyone in this town to death at once, ordinary people, tens of thousands of people can't stop the spiritual attack of a strong man like him.
"You wait!" Xiao Chen suddenly stood in place. Closing his eyes, he muttered silently, and suddenly, a vertical eye cracked open on his forehead, and silver light radiated out.
This silver light is Xiao Chen's spiritual eye technique.
The Psion Eye is a powerful auxiliary technique that perceives any presence in the void through the Soul Eye. Even the space mezzanine could not escape the exploration of the Spirit Eye Technique, and where the light of the Spirit Eye Technique passed, the void was all revealed.
There is a trace of breath left in the void, although it is separated by more than a month, but as long as it is a place where people have lived. There will always be a breath, although it will fade away with the passage of time.
Xiao Chen's spiritual eye radiated out, piercing through the room, and the entire town was shrouded in him.
The atmosphere in the town was very chaotic, and some were extremely faint. But some of them are stronger, and apparently, the people of this town of Damm are missing. It attracted a lot of people to investigate, so the atmosphere left behind was relatively chaotic.
But when it comes to being able to get tens of thousands of people in a town away without a sound, it takes at least a super strong person with extremely strong strength to do it, Xiao Chen didn't sense the breath of a super strong person.
"Could it be that this person is still hiding his breath, even if he leaves, he will eliminate his breath, so cautious?" Xiao Chen pondered.
Just Xiao Chen explored a circle. When he made no special discovery, he was suddenly shocked. The spiritual eye technique is promoted to the extreme.
At this time, he finally sensed a trace of vague aura remaining in the void.
It's just that this breath is extremely faint, Xiao Chen almost misses it, but Xiao Chen will not forget this special breath, he is still unsure, suddenly opened his eyes, blood red appeared in his eyes, the blood limit eye of the blood clan was stimulated, and in his field of vision, those breaths finally changed.
Dark wisps of mist.
Demonic breath.
Xiao Chen's heart was shocked, and he finally confirmed that this residual extremely faint aura came from the demon.
He has converged on the Spirit Eye and the Eye of Blood Limit.
"Young Master, have you found anything?" Xue Wei Xue Rui hurriedly asked.
"Yes!" Xiao Chen said.
"Really, young master, what did you find?" both girls looked at Xiao Chen nervously.
"Demonic breath, there have been demons in this town......" Xiao Chen affirmed.
"Ah, demons?" both women were extremely surprised, and Xue Rui said: "Young Master, could it be that the demon took away the people here, but to be able to take away tens of thousands of people so silently, I'm afraid it's not something ordinary demons can do, right? Maybe someone summoned a demon here, maybe it was the Dark Archmage who did it?"
The demons themselves cannot directly enter the human world, and only dark mages can summon demons in the abyss to help them fight through special magic.
Xiao Chen furrowed his eyebrows and did not answer Xue Rui's words.
Just now he was also thinking, if it was a powerful dark archmage who had summoned demons here and taken away tens of thousands of humans in this town, this was indeed a reasonable explanation, and a powerful dark archmage could indeed do this easily.
However, if this was the case, why didn't the Dark Archmage leave any breath, this was exactly what Xiao Chen felt strange.
Taking away tens of thousands of human beings is nothing to a powerful dark archmage, is he still afraid of the revenge of a small second-level civilization, and he will not be able to erase his breath before leaving, and since he wants to leave no traces, then why did he leave a demonic aura......
An even more terrifying thought appeared in Xiao Chen's mind, if there was no dark archmage, but the demon had taken away these humans......
This thought appeared, so that Xiao Chen himself did not believe it, after all, there has never been a precedent for the demon to come to the human world by himself, it must be summoned, and the summoned demon is limited by heaven and earth, not only can not disobey the summoner's order, but once the summoner dies, they will also be directly sent back to the abyss.
No, Xiao Chen was taken aback, remembering the most tragic demon war in the history of the mainland, since there was a demon war breaking out, it meant that demons could enter the human world.
It's just that this demon war happened 30,000 years ago, why hasn't there been a demon entering the human world again in these 30,000 years......
Whewββ
Xiao Chen let out a breath, this matter must be investigated.
"Xue Wei Xuerui, we are going back, this matter, I'm afraid it's not that simple. Xiao Chen said.
"Okay, young master. Xue Wei Xuerui also knew that the matter was urgent, so naturally she would not pull Xiao Chen to continue playing.
They came outside the house and broke through the air.
Xiao Chen did not return to Celestial Star City directly, but first arrived at the Star Cult Temple located on the Asold Plain, which is also the center of the entire Star Sect.
As soon as Xiao Chen appeared, De Knox hurriedly appeared to greet him.
"Master, I don't know what is going on, calling me in such a hurry. "Inside the temple, Denox met with Xiao Chen alone.
"Old De, let me ask you first, can this demon appear on the continent without being summoned through a dark spell?" Xiao Chen said.
Hearing this, De Nox hurriedly shook his head: "Master, this is impossible, I haven't heard of the demon himself appearing on the continent." β
"Then what's the matter with the Demon War? Demons can't even appear on the mainland, and they can still start a war?" Xiao Chen asked rhetorically.
"This ......" Denox hesitated for a moment and said, "Master, I don't know the specific situation, but I also know about demon wars, almost all of them happen once in tens of thousands of years, and the last one was thirty thousand years ago...... Master, why did you suddenly ask about this? β
"Yesterday, I took Xue Wei Xuerui to walk on the mainland, and I happened to arrive at the second-level civilization Ulan Kingdom, but I heard that tens of thousands of people in a small town there were all missing, I went to investigate, and the result made me sense that there was a demonic aura there...... Xiao Chen said in a condensed voice.
After hearing this, De Knox had a strange look on his face.
"Old De, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Chen noticed that Denox's face changed.
"The host...... I know that......" De Nox said.
"Do you know?" Xiao Chen was strange, the disappearance of tens of thousands of people in a second-level civilization town may be a big deal for a kingdom, but it is a very small thing for the entire Eastern Continent, how can De Knox also know.
"Master, if you don't say it, I haven't remembered it yet," De Knox's face became solemn, "However, if you talk about it now, I remember that this disappearance has happened more than once." Because our Star Cult is developing to all the countries of the Eastern Continent, and is not limited to the Empire, there are also temples and churches of our Star Cult in many kingdoms. These temples, churches, every once in a while, will sort out and report to the main hall the major events that happen in the kingdom where they are located, and under normal circumstances, I don't pay attention to these, and they are all handled by the people below...... But some time ago, a bishop in charge of this matter in the temple sent me a report, saying that in the past six months, in many places, there have been incidents of collective disappearances of people, and according to the statistics of the branches of the Guangxing Sect, there have been dozens of cases, and I have also taken the document to read, because these disappearances are extremely scattered, and they are all in some low-level civilizations, and there are tens of thousands of people missing each time, ranging from tens of thousands of people to hundreds of thousands......"
After listening to what De Nox said, Xiao Chen's tone sank: "Why didn't you tell me about this earlier." β
"Master......" De Nox smiled bitterly: "There are so many people on this continent, and this is happening in a low-level civilization, I don't think much about it......"
Xiao Chen's eyebrows furrowed, and he was about to scold, but after thinking about it, he held back again, after all, De Knox was a dark archmage, and he was not a good man or woman before, and now his status is so high, so he is concerned about the missing people in some small civilizations and small countries, and it is indeed difficult for him.
"Alright, you can quickly bring the file to me...... Well, by the way, the bishop in charge of this matter also called me. Xiao Chen said.
