Chapter 8: Twisted City
"This is Twisted City!" Yuan Xiao looked at the broken city wall in front of him and let out a hint of admiration.
Where Yuan Xiao appeared, the sky was as red as blood, as if the flames had burned the sky.
The air around them, the strong smell of blood, could feel the eerie coldness.
The earth, where no grass grows, is covered with gray-black debris, and in the debris, you can clearly see the interspersed bones of creatures.
In front of Yuan Xiao, there was a huge city wall up to a kilometer high, the city wall was as black as ink, with many holes of different sizes, as if it had been broken through by some force.
What amazed Yuan Xiao was the huge city gate not far away.
Two iron doors made of dark metal, like the gates of hell, release terrifying coercion, oppressing people's hearts and making people awe.
Yuan Xiao noticed that not only did he appear here, but also around him, whirlpools appeared, and out of them were strange-looking alien creatures and human races, walking towards the city one after another.
Seeing this, Yuan Xiao also took steps and followed.
"These skeletons are terrifying." Yuan Xiao approached the gate and was shocked by the enormity of the city gate.
On both sides of the gate, there stood rows of skeleton soldiers in armor, the smell of death permeated, and the empty eyes made people feel as if they were facing the abyss.
Yuan Xiao tried to sense the breath of the skeleton soldier, and all he felt was an oppressive death breath, and that power that was so strong that it was suffocating.
Yuan Xiao knew that the strength of each of these skeleton soldiers was extremely powerful.
Before approaching the city, Yuan Xiao saw the alien creatures around him, all of them looked at the skeleton soldiers vigilantly, as if they were intimidated by the breath of death.
Along the way, every alien creature remained silent, for fear of disturbing the skeleton soldiers.
"Hehe, there's another batch of guinea pigs."
"I can clearly smell the smell of flesh and blood coming from them, I wonder what it smells like?"
"I'm going to mark them, you bastards, don't rob me."
As soon as Yuan Xiao entered the city, he saw a row of people looking at them carefully.
There are lion-headed human beings with a height of two meters, giant spiders with hideous appearances, werewolves licking their lips, and all kinds of strange creatures staring at them.
The bloody aura contained in it makes people know that these are monsters that have been repeated several times.
These monsters, as if they were looking at their prey, stared at them, debating where to belong.
Yuan Xiao's eyes were slightly condensed, although he was annoyed, but looking at these guys, it seemed that these guys seemed to be a little restrained, and it seemed that this city had its own rules.
Sure enough, just when Yuan Xiao was guessing, there was a strange creature who walked with him into Twisted City, couldn't stand the gaze of these guys, and angrily made a move.
Bite!
In Yuan Xiao's horrified gaze, a death spear pierced through the alien creature that was moving, and a skeleton soldier stood directly behind it.
"Twist the city, doer, die!"
Eerie words came from the skeleton's mouth, and he drew his spear and patrolled off into the distance as if nothing happened.
This scene shocked the newcomers who had just entered the city.
Yuan Xiao finally knew why these people who had experienced several repetitions just stared at it and didn't make a move.
Those who dare to make a move in Twisted City are estimated to be dead.
Also here, Yuan Xiao knew that this city was a safe point.
"It's stupid for a guy who doesn't know whether to live or die, to enter and dare to do something here." The alien creature sneered and sneered.
There are also alien creatures, although they are used to seeing the scene of skeleton soldiers shooting, but when they see it again, they still have palpitations and are afraid.
As a few re-enactments, they knew early on how special Twisted City was to be.
But there are also some alien creatures that are deliberate, wanting to provoke newcomers to make a move, which is good to look at and lively.
Yuan Xiao looked at it for a moment, ignored a few pairs of eyes staring at him, and walked towards the interior of the city.
Along the way, Yuan Xiao looked at everything around curiously.
The Twisted City was so vast that from where it stood in the distance, there was no end in sight.
Looking towards the left and right roads with no end in sight, there is no boundary.
The towering pavilion was like a giant dragon winding on the ground, and the whole air was filled with the breath of coldness.
"These shops are all run by the undead?" Yuan Xiao was a little surprised.
As Yuan Xiao looked all the way, he found that there should be everything in Twisted City.
There are hotels, restaurants, and shops where people can buy supplies, and they are not much different from ordinary living cities.
The flow of people is also terrifying, dense, noisy, and crowded.
To Yuan Xiao's surprise, the shopkeepers of these shops seemed to be undead.
He saw that many of the alien creatures were walking back and forth in the shops, going in and out, haggling with the shopkeepers, some happy, some helpless.
This scene surprised Yuan Xiao very much.
"Hehe, this little brother, it seems that this is the first time you have come to Twisted City, right?" A human approached, looking a little obscene, and approached Yuan Xiao with a smile.
Yuan Xiao squinted and became vigilant: "Something? β
Seeing Yuan Xiao's vigilant gaze, the person who came smiled, bowed and laughed: "This little brother, my name is Mu Chong, I have experienced nine repetitions, I think the little brother seems to be quite unfamiliar here, so I came to ask, I want to see if there is anything that can help." β
Yuan Xiao looked at the guy named Mu Chong in front of him, and when he heard the latter say that he had experienced nine repetitions, his eyes narrowed.
You know, he has just experienced the first reenactment, and it is not easy to survive, and this guy in front of him has actually reenacted it nine times.
As soon as he thought of this, Yuan Xiao became vigilant, he would not be so easy to believe: "This place, do you think there is no reason to help others, you can believe it?" β
As soon as he said this, he had already picked out Yuan Xiao's attitude, help? , a place where they fight each other, how dare he trust the help of a stranger.
"Hehe, there's no problem with what the little brother said, that's why I'm looking for you." Mu Chong smiled, not annoyed by Yuan Xiao's attitude.
"Tell me, then, how are you going to help me?" Yuan Xiao looked at Mu Chong, couldn't feel the breath of the other party, and estimated that his strength was not weak, otherwise how could he live to experience nine repeats.
"I see that this is the first time for my little brother to come to Twisted City, there must be news that I don't know about this place, and this Twisted City, I can provide it to my little brother here." Mu Chong rubbed his hands.
"Don't get paid?" Yuan Xiao didn't believe it.
"Of course, I provide information, and I also hope that the little brother can make a small deal with me." Mu Chong squinted and smiled.
"What deal?"
"I hope that in the future, if I meet in a repetition, I can spare my life."
"Oh?" Yuan Xiao was shocked, not knowing what the other party meant.
"Hehe, little brother don't worry, I don't mean anything else, I just want to live." Mu Chong sneered, making it easy for people to let down their vigilance.
Yuan Xiao squinted, thinking about what the other party meant, and in order to understand the clues here, he nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you." β
"Haha, then thank you little brother, what does that little brother want to know, just ask." Hearing Yuan Xiao's answer, Mu Chong laughed.
So, Yuan Xiao was not polite, and asked about many things here, as well as some of his own questions, and Mu Chong also answered them one by one.
Half an hour later, Mu Chong left.
Yuan Xiao's eyes flickered, looking at Mu Chong's departing back, and secretly said in his heart, this guy is very unusual.
got the answer he wanted, and Yuan Xiao also exhaled.
Yuan Xiao knew that a guy like Mu Chong, who had survived nine repetitions, could be simple and strong, and he would not be wary because of the other party's kindness.
You must know that Mu Chong's transaction just now was to let him spare the other party's life when he repeated it, but he didn't say that the other party could spare his own life.
Besides, promises, in this place, is it really possible?
Yuan Xiao has reason to believe that if the other party has the opportunity, he will definitely kill himself without hesitation.
This place, naΓ―ve, will only cost you your life.
Retracting his gaze, Yuan Xiao looked into the distance, the tall City Lord's Mansion in the center, towering into the clouds, and took a deep breath: "The Undead Emperor Realm, the Ten Great Cities, the Undead Clan?" β
