Chapter 4: Statues and Monuments
At the moment when Zhang Jie held the handle of the riding gun, Yang Yun was also a flower in front of him.
As if the main god had teleported to wake up from a dream, when Yang Yun regained consciousness, he was stunned to find himself in the midst of a bustling city. In front of him is green trees, not far from the high-rise buildings, around the road is constantly trafficked, and there are pedestrians talking and laughing around.
Where is the hellish sight that existed before? At this time, the scene is almost the same as the real world.
After a brief pause, Yang Yun tentatively stretched out his hand, trying to catch a fallen leaf that fell from the book when the wind blew. However, this action was not successful, and the swirling blades went straight through Yang Yun's palm and landed on the ground leisurely.
- Can't touch anything here?
Yang Yun, who had a slight calculation in his heart, looked left and right, and quickly stretched out his hand to try to stop an oncoming pedestrian.
It stands to reason that when a person walks on the road, no matter how busy and anxious he is, he can't help but look sideways when he encounters other people who stretch out their hands to block the road, but this passer-by who was stopped by Yang Yun walked straight without squinting and went straight through Yang Yun's outstretched arm...... As Yang Yun, who was pierced through, there was not the slightest touch on his arm, and the life energy and internal force covering his skin did not react.
- It seems that it is just an illusory phantom, not the remnant of a soul, but more similar to the past memories in the meditation basin in Harry Potter.
- So the question is, whose memory is this, and where is the city?
Since he knew that this place was not real, and he could not have a practical impact on the things here, it meant that there was not much danger in this place, so Yang Yun put his mind at ease and turned to thinking about other issues.
Yang Yun was not worried about Zhang Jie's danger, although the two were currently scattered for unknown reasons, as a fourth-order spiritual power controller, Zhang Jie would inevitably discover the truth about the city earlier than Yang Yun himself, and according to his character......
In the next second, a wave of obvious spiritual power that even Yang Yun could feel suddenly erupted from not far away.
Zhang Jie didn't try to cover up his tracks at all, his strong spiritual power swept across the entire city, and then retracted it after a few seconds, just leaving a coordinate and a sentence in Yang Yun's mind.
"Coming to the square, I made some discoveries."
……
When Yang Yun arrived at the square Zhang Jie said, it was easy to find this man, who was smoking a cigarette quietly in front of a statue and a stone monument.
"It looks like there's a brief difference in the amount of time you and I have been here."
Yang Yun just glanced at the five or six cigarette butts that fell from Zhang Jie's feet, and he could clearly grasp the time that this man had spent in the square: "You should have arrived here about fifteen minutes earlier than me." ”
"Sixteen minutes and eight seconds, to be exact." Zhang Jie didn't look back, and Yang Yun keenly noticed that his voice seemed to be a little dull, and he didn't sound emotional: "Maybe it's because I directly held the riding spear that I entered here one step ahead of you." ”
"Luckily, there's nothing dangerous here." Yang Yun smiled and shook his head: "And throwing cigarette butts everywhere is not a good habit." ”
Zhang Jie shook his head, and he didn't see any movement, and the invisible mental power crushed the cigarette butt into dust: "...... Let's get down to business, Yang Yun, you must have also discovered that this is actually an illusory space, and our power can't affect most things in this city. ”
"You say most." Yang Yun noticed Zhang Jie's words: "In other words, there are still things that can be influenced?" ”
"Yes, for example, the walls around the city, and the tower in the very center of the city."
Zhang Jie shared the topographical map of the city with Yang Yun's mind: "My spiritual power will be blocked back by the walls around the city, but this should be just a simple defensive measure. On the contrary, it was that tower, which had a defense similar to a shield of spiritual power, and even I had to use my mental power to turn into a drill bit to concentrate on one point, and it took a lot of energy to force a breakthrough. ”
"Tamo ......"
Yang Yun's eyes fell on the very center of the city, the towering white tower that reached the sky and the earth, looking from afar, it was like a connecting line between heaven and earth.
And this is the most obvious reminder that this is not real-world evidence.
"That's what you said you had discovered?" Yang Yun looked at the giant tower: "It seems that it is indeed the key point to break the game. ”
Just to Yang Yun's surprise, Zhang Jie shook his head: "No, it's something else, although this city looks a lot like the real world, it's just 'very similar'." ”
"After my mental power scan, judging from the daily performance of humans in the city, they can lift hundreds of kilograms of heavy objects, and every ordinary student in the school can easily break the record of the Olympic champion when they are in physical education class. There are a large number of armed forces in the city, and in addition to having weapons and equipment that are at least hundreds of years ahead of the real world, the soldiers are also practicing a martial arts technique called Shangqing Zhanquan...... Although I said that it was a martial arts exercise, judging from their daily exercises, it was nothing more than a move similar to military body boxing. ”
"Also, this statue is ...... with the stele"
With Zhang Jie's words, Yang Yun noticed that this object should have been more eye-catching and more existential, Zhang Jie had been smoking silently under the statue before, and when he heard this, he also looked up at the statue about ten meters high.
The statue is carved with a heroic-looking man, with eight golden gossip runes on his head, surrounded by four elephants and beasts, and the soles of his feet are deliberately set off in five different colors.
"The Human Emperor ......"
There is a sign below the statue, Yang Yun glanced at it, and read the record on it: "Human Emperor, rise at the most desperate time of mankind, destroy the werewolf royal court, build a human city, break the demon king level in the battle of the protagonist's sublimation, retreat from the alliance of the hundred clans, destroy the elf clan later, break the sycamore in the double array, the hand of the town god, seal the dark Gaia, and build the tenth legion of the human emperor......"
Zhang Jie added on the side: "It sounds like this emperor is a very powerful person, but his name is not written...... Look at this again. ”
Yang Yun walked over, and when he saw the blood-colored words surrounded by a golden border under the monument, his breath immediately froze.
"For thousands of years, the heroes who died in the battle against the erosion of Dark Gaia and the human city are immortalized!"
"For 18,000 years, the heroes who died in the battle against the erosion of Dark Gaia and the Human City are immortalized!"
"From then on, in order to resist the flood and desolation, and fight for the independence of the human race and the freedom and happiness of mankind, the heroes of the human race who sacrificed in countless bloody and tearful struggles are immortal!"
"It's ......"
Yang Yun could naturally see what this inscription was written on, and at this moment, he finally realized what the city was...... Here, it is the "human city" in someone's memory, and it is someone's mental landscape.
- And 18,000 years have passed since the end of the story of the beginning of death.
