Chapter 268: What the Black Gate City Concealed (5,000 words)
I thought it would be a good thing to get a city without an owner, but who would have thought that there was an unspeakable danger in it?
What he had just experienced made Xiao Huan feel a strange horror in his heart, and he himself couldn't tell what it was, but he vaguely felt that he seemed to have survived a difficult time.
He was even glad that he had woken up in time, or was he not just glad?
I quickly recalled the feeling just now, it was very strange, I could hear a lot of voices calling for myself, but on the contrary, all these voices were blocked from my consciousness, only Yang Jia's voice could pass through the layers of barriers and hit myself in time, just like just now my heart parasitized the city of rest, but it was also submerged by the ocean of spiritual power of the city of rest, wrapped in layers of it, only Yang Jia easily entered his heart and woke himself up in time.
Is this a coincidence?
Yang Jia can speak because she feels that she is disappearing.
And she could feel that she was disappearing, because the white gold ring, on a deep level, bound the two together.
For as thou hast a part with me, and I have a part with you.
The process of Yang Jia awakening herself seems simple, but it is actually because of this subtle connection.
However, this platinum ring is the will of Black Gate City, which was specially left to Yang Jia before, and there is no explanation, and no points are charged.
Could it be that Blackgate City has expected this step since then?
……
quickly figured out the relationship between each other, Xiao Huan narrowed his eyes slightly:
"In this world, everyone hides their secrets, and no one wants to tell them, including Black Gate City......"
"It seems that I still need to talk to her again......"
“……”
Although he was thinking about this, Xiao Huan also knew that he really should go back.
It's just that before going back, there are still some important things to deal with, such as, what should I do with this huge city of rest?
Although the city has just almost lost itself.
However, Xiao Huan would never agree to give up the city of rest in vain, he knew that if he withdrew from his own perception, the city would become empty again.
When the time comes, in the sea of mist, there will be countless mysterious sources wandering in the mist, I am afraid that there will be countless people pouring here, you will fight for me, in order to become the will of the city, and fight to the death.
…… Of course, Xiao Huan still wants to see what they are fighting for.
But after thinking about it for a while, it still can't be in the end, the competition for the mysterious source is all carried out in the spiritual ocean of people, if those mysterious sources are allowed to devour each other like Gu here, I'm afraid it's the ordinary people of the rest city who are unlucky, right?
Will this also make the city, with a lot of split personalities?
Divided into three personalities, four personalities? Even as more and more mysterious sources come in, it is not impossible to divide them into more than ten or twenty.
Of course, in the final analysis, I am still reluctant.
The museum in the city of rest has now been completely emptied, and the weapons in the museum are still attached to the countless split people, most of which have been looted by strangers from various cities, but the remaining part is also very considerable, Xiao Huan is not in a hurry to snatch these things back, but to ensure that these things are his own, after all, this is his own small treasury, and he can be included in his own collection system and become his own arsenal when he turns back......
…… After all, didn't Lao Zhou at the bottom of the bridge mock himself behind his back that he was not a real collector?
…… Oh, he's also worthy of picking up rags!
……
All in all, Xiao Huan didn't want to give up the treasures of the Rest City, so he had to find a suitable person to help him guard it.
But who to look for?
The three-headed dogs of hell are not good, although their responsibility is to guard the door, but now Xiao Huan is a little skeptical about the morality of the three of them.
The butcher can't do it, and the neighborhood is waiting for him to open tomorrow to sell meat!
So who to turn to?
I don't know if Xiao Huan was talking to himself when he was thinking about this question, or if he is still in a state of parasitism about the city, and his thinking has also triggered the overflow of some spiritual power, which has been captured.
Soon, a cheerful and flattering melody sounded in his ears.
Invisibly, there seems to be a lovely young lady holding a record player dancing happily, with a look of anticipation on her face.
So, Xiao Huan's eyes gradually became clear: "With ......"
The dance of the young lady of the record player is more cheerful, full of smiles, if the melody has life, at this time this melody is already eager to hang on Xiao Huan's body.
Then Xiao Huan happily made a decision: "Isn't the rabbit boss in Rest City?" ”
When the scenery around Xiao Huan stabilized again, he had come to a tavern located on the side of the street, facing the city that was still extremely crazy just now, but now it has returned to the calm city, sitting on the side of the street with rabbit ears, holding a straw in his mouth, drinking the whiskey on the ice in the cup in front of him little by little, snorting and drinking very happily, and blowing bubbles from time to time.
"Why did you show up?"
Seeing Xiao Huan's figure and appearing at the door of the bar, the rabbit boss's two ears pricked up, and he drooped lazily.
Xiao Huan was curious, did her ears wear a pendant on her head, or did they grow on her head?
"With you, why should I worry?"
Xiao Huan walked up to her with a smile, pulled out a stool, and sat down in front of her.
"I don't really have to worry about it, but ......"
Boss Rabbit scratched his ears a little irritably: "I'm your boss, and I'm not your working cub, so you call me like that?" ”
Facing her complaints, Xiao Huan just wanted to say something soft, but she said again: "It's really not okay to buy me first, it's up to ......you to buy it with a whip or a candle."
“……”
Xiao Huan suddenly didn't know how to answer this conversation.
Wei Yi looked at this underground world giant in Black Gate City, and only felt that her temperament was already very weird.
At this time, I can't see the points on her body, which may also mean that no matter how many points she has, she can't buy her?
The city no longer has the power to completely control her, buy and sell her at will?
However, she can clearly feel the power in her body, especially in the battle of Rest City, she has gained a lot of money, when she was in Black Gate City, Xiao Huan has already felt her huge potential, and now look at it, she vaguely, she has a strength level beyond the A-level, perhaps, if she wants her strength, she can only kill her in this city, and then use the power of this city to digest her power, and then collect it in her own small treasury, right?
This may also explain the mysterious source's attachment to aberrant creatures.
The mysterious source can easily control everyone in the city through the parasitism of the spiritual ocean.
But, except for aberrant creatures.
So, for the aberrant creatures, they can only put a bounty, through the bounty, clean them up, and then devour everything about them.
The weak ones are absorbed in the form of painful substances, and the strong ones can be kept alone and stored as weapons in museums.
Perhaps the mysterious source is essentially the same as the aberrant creatures?
Xiao Huan had this idea a long time ago, and even tried an analogy, and got the answer that the mysterious source may be an SS-class aberrant creature, but whether they only need to grow to achieve this step, or whether some changes also need to occur in the meantime, that is now Xiao Huan's knowledge blind spot, but Xiao Huan doesn't mind, anyway, there is no more suitable than putting rabbit ears in this empty city, so I can take the opportunity to observe her......
The boss guards the safe, the employees fight underneath, don't other companies do the same?
"Is it the only way to pick a whip and a candle if you buy it?"
Xiao Huan thought in his heart, but his face just followed her words and asked with a smile.
Boss Rabbit's eyes suddenly lit up: "Of course not, are you willing?" ”
Xiao Huan wanted to say something, but suddenly Yang Jia's shadow flashed in his mind, sat up a little straighter, and said with a smile: "Let's talk about business first, the territory of Rest City has been defeated, you are the boss, what are you going to do?" ”
"It's not good for employees to be too diligent and ......"
The rabbit boss sighed a little helplessly, and said: "I originally wanted to give myself a vacation and travel, but you insisted on forcing me to work overtime......"
When Xiao Huan heard her say this, he knew that she had agreed, and was about to get up with a smile.
Unexpectedly, the rabbit boss saw that he was about to leave after only saying these two words, but he suddenly stopped him, and seemed to hesitate, and said after a while: "What will we become?" ”
"Huh?"
Xiao Huan turned his head to look at her with some curiosity.
Boss Rabbit looked at him fixedly, and said slowly: "I knew I was going crazy from a long time ago......"
"I've been waiting and even wanting to join the madman group on my own initiative......"
"But the madman organization has not been looking for me, and you have not bought me, which has made me sad for a long time, but now, I can feel that I am becoming a madman......"
“……”
As she spoke, her naturally somewhat immature face was faintly gloomy:
"It's a really pleasant feeling......
"So I'm curious to know, how crazy am I, or rather, us?"
“……”
Xiao Huan didn't expect Boss Rabbit to ask such a thing, since he met her, the impression she gave herself has always been that it is not normal.
Probably she was really crazy, otherwise how could she ask such a normal question?
And looking at her, feeling the vague worry in her heart, which seemed to be well hidden, Xiao Huan just smiled, pointed to his brain, and said, "At least you won't be crazy enough to lose this thing......"
In the midst of the rabbit boss's giggles, Xiao Huan waved his hand at her and turned to leave.
In this world, everyone has a lot of things that they can't understand, and they have come to this point, and they still feel that there are too many things that are being hidden, such as the Dante organization and the hell organization hidden in this carnival feast, such as the platinum ring prepared for himself in advance by Black Gate City, such as the unknown fear that Yang Jia, who is still scared, hiding in the small building and not daring to show up, and for example, when he was fighting against Mr. Wataru, the secondary source, the faint appearance seemed to be a door of endless despair and fear......
And compared to himself, Boss Rabbit obviously knows less.
Although she had been looking forward to this, she was inevitably frightened by this strange change......
But it doesn't matter, if you're scared, don't you move forward?
Give her a piece of soil first, and as for what it will look like in the end, then it can only depend on fate, right?
Coming out of that small bar, Xiao Huan's mood had relaxed a lot, and he decided not to pay attention to the voice that was constantly calling for him at this time in the rest of the city, and now he was a little annoyed by this.
However, there were all kinds of weird melodies in his ears, as if a person was crying, Xiao Huan stopped helplessly, and said: "Don't feel wronged, I know you have helped a lot this time, and I have always been very good to you, right?" ”
"But this time, I was almost trapped, but no one reminded me, shouldn't I go back and talk to Black Gate City?"
"What's the problem, let's go home, okay?"
“……”
The looming melody was even more humble, and a young lady holding a record player seemed to be complaining about the song: "You need to talk to her, what does it have to do with me?" ”
"Let's go!"
Xiao Huan didn't think about this, between raising his hand, a few blocks away, he was squatting on the road and rubbing the softness of the network, and suddenly, he was pulled in front of him, he lifted the soft waist, and the solid earth of the city under his feet suddenly became melted, and then, his whole person sank into this melted flesh and blood, countless tentacles rose in the wind, intertwined with each other, turned into two parallel railroad tracks, swirling, and the high train they rode when they came, like an illusory shadow, came to him.
When he came, Xiao Huan still needed to take the high train, but this time he went back, but it was only a thought.
Sitting on the train, Xiao Huan sighed softly, looked at the empty carriage, put aside the dissatisfaction on his face, and rubbed his forehead to rest.
In the blink of an eye, it's time to get to Black Gate City.
You can ask Heromon City what you want to know, after all, maybe it's a bit disrespectful to say that, but at this time, I do have the qualifications to talk to Hermon City.
But, where to start?
Thinking about these things, Xiao Huan, I don't know when, suddenly felt that something was slightly wrong.
He immediately looked up, and saw that the high column of flesh and blood was dimly lit and the lights flickered, and in front of the seat where he was sitting, about seven or eight rows of seats, there were two figures sitting.
Facing him was an old man in a platinum robe, and facing away from him was a middle-aged man in a suit.
They sat looking at each other, the old man in the platinum robe just looked at him quietly, but the middle-aged man in the suit scratched his head from time to time, looking a little irritable.
Xiao Huan exhaled and slowly stood up.
This high train was conjured by himself using the spiritual ocean of the city of rest, and he would only send himself and the soft back to the Black Gate City, which is a power similar to authority, but on this train that should not have anyone, such two strangers suddenly appeared.
There is no doubt that they should have a rank far beyond themselves.
And since they appeared and didn't make a move on themselves, it means that they want to talk to themselves, and besides, Xiao Huan doesn't feel a temperament similar to a mysterious source in them.
They are actually people.
With a slight sigh, Xiao Huan had a smile on his face and slowly walked towards the two of them.
These two people, the eyes of the platinum old man, slowly moved up as Xiao Huan approached, and the middle-aged man in the suit also turned around and looked at Xiao Huan thoughtfully.
Xiao Huan approached step by step and stretched out his hand to them.
The platinum old man was facing Xiao Huan, looking at his outstretched hand, hesitated slightly, and then also reached out in a friendly manner, ready to shake it.
"Doesn't look like an enemy......"
Xiao Huan had a score in his heart, but he didn't shake his hand, but shook it up and down, and said, "Ticket!" ”
“?”
The eyes of the old man in the platinum robe became stunned, and even the middle-aged man in the suit gasped: "It's just a ride for you, and you still need a ticket?" ”
"You need a ticket to get on the boat, and you need a ticket to get on the bus."
Xiao Huan took their expressions into his eyes, and quickly made a lot of analysis, and said with a smile: "Besides, you came up without even saying hello, and you didn't pay a fine, just make up the ticket?" ”
"When you invited everyone to the feast before, you weren't so stingy......"
The man in the black suit sighed helplessly, and actually groped in his pocket for a long time, and took out a small box, which looked the size of a fist, swarthy, and said helplessly to Xiao:
"I don't need points, so I can only use this to offset it, okay?"
“……”
Xiao Huan's heart moved slightly, took the small box, put it in his pocket without looking at it, and looked at the old man in the platinum robe, silent.
"You ......"
The old man in the platinum robe glanced at the middle-aged man in the suit with a complicated expression, seemed a little reluctant, and complained: "You make it difficult for me to do this......"
But in the face of Xiao Huan's calm and serious eyes, he still exhaled deeply, and from the wide white sleeves of his robe, he took out a brass-colored key, shook it in front of Xiao Huan, and put it in his hand:
"Okay, right?"
“……”
Xiao Huan actually received two tickets, but his mood suddenly became heavy, he sat down in the seat next to the two of them, and frowned slightly:
"So, you also want to come to me to book Noah's ferry tickets?"
“……”
The two seemed to see that Xiao Huan's words were a temptation, and glanced at each other, the old man in a platinum robe, and slowly said to Xiao Huan: "Actually, we are here to remind you, don't be deceived." ”
Xiao Huan was slightly surprised: "Who?" ”
"Who else could it be?"
The middle-aged man in a black suit lazily took over the conversation: "Of course it's the woman who controls the will of Black Gate City......"
"We've had so many people die at her hands, didn't you almost become one of them?"
It's before 12 o'clock!
