Looking at the childish little girl in front of them, everyone was surprised.

Everyone can't seem to believe that there are still normal people in this dilapidated city...... Only Chen Bofu's brows furrowed faintly.

The old man looked at the little girl suspiciously, then at Chen Jing, and stopped smoking without speaking.

"We did come in through the River Styx."

"That's the Styx made by the old gods! How did you break in?! The little girl raised her hand and gestured, looking excited, "I haven't been able to get out after trying for so many years!" Can you take me out! ”

"You've been trying for years?" Chen Jing noticed this key sentence, and his expression couldn't help but wonder, "How many years have you been here?" ”

"It's been a long, long time!"

The little girl scratched her head, as if trying to remember something.

"From the big hourglass in the lower town...... Probably thousands of years, right? ”

"Thousands of years?!"

If there were still inhabitants in this decaying dungeon, who had been cautiously multiplying since thousands of years ago, then Chen Jing would probably not be so surprised, but the question was...... The reproduction of ethnic groups and the survival of individuals are completely different things.

Although there are many long-lived creatures in this world, such as Jegotos, they are living examples, but this little guy really doesn't look like a person who has lived for thousands of years, and his immature face and ignorant expression are difficult to associate with an immortal species.

"What's your name?" Chen Bofu asked coldly.

"Mona." The girl replied, not as if she were too wary of the crowd, her eyes rolling and she looked curiously at everyone present.

"Just now you told us to go to the altar and said that those monsters didn't dare to chase after them......"

Chen Bofu casually snuffed out the cigarette butt and walked in front of Mona with a rare kind expression.

"Where's that altar? Can you show us there? ”

"Yes!" Mona nodded without hesitation, then turned around and jumped to the front to show the way for everyone, "Keep up!" ”

……

Follow Mona through this decaying and dead street.

Along the way, no one saw any more creatures.

It seems that they have killed all the remaining humanoid beasts in the city.

The streets are frighteningly quiet.

Except for the eerie sound of the city squirming from time to time, all that was left was the tinkling of the little girl, Mona.

Mona wore a cast-iron ornament around her neck, thin black chains looped around her scarlet-tattooed neck, and the pendant was hidden in the chest of her dusty robes, clanging as she ran.

Soon.

Led by Mona, the group came to the edge of the city.

"It seems that we were right." Chen Bofu put his hands behind his back and looked around in circles, "Most of the dungeons have been destroyed, only the urban area we just walked through is barely intact. ”

"It was destroyed by the old gods, right?" Kui Nan asked cautiously.

"It doesn't have to be destroyed by the old gods."

Chen Jing raised his eyes and glanced at the "city buildings" that were wriggling like a mountain of scarlet meat, and his mind was full of "his" voice.

"Although I don't know much about the Western Continent, I don't feel like this place has been destroyed by Xi."

"Are you sure?"

"Heck, every old creature has a different approach, like you, if you were to destroy the city, no matter what means you used, it would leave your traces, but there is no ...... here This ruin gives me the feeling that it has nothing to do with Xi. ”

Saying that, "he" couldn't help but marvel at the old man's vicious eyesight.

"Didn't the old man say it before, he felt that the changes here came from another ancient source, and it is estimated that he could also see that this place was polluted to such a dead state, and it must not be Xi's doing."

Right now.

Mona had led the group to a huge pit.

The entrance to the cave is roughly circular.

The edges look jagged and irregular.

The stone walls inside the cave, including the surface around the cave entrance, took on a dark color, and the surface seemed to be covered with a layer of glass-like substance, and did not turn into a piece of flesh like an alienated city.

Standing at the entrance of the cave and looking down, everyone only found that the inner space was in the shape of a funnel.

The area below is the smallest, only about 50 meters in diameter at most, while the part near the entrance of the cave is 500 meters in diameter.

Chen Bofu squatted at the entrance of the cave, raising his hand to caress the cold surface.

"Something seems to be gushing up from below...... Magma or flames or something like that......" Chen Bofu said softly, his thin palm seemed to be able to feel the heat of thousands of years ago through this blackened and hard rock, "The original séance ceremony may be more complicated than we imagined......

"This is where the Old Gods were summoned in the first place?" Yan Que also came up curiously.

"It should be." Chen Jing replied to the old man, although he hadn't seen the so-called séance ritual yet, in this vertically downward cave, Chen Jing could smell almost all the breath of Xi!

"That's where the old gods came out in the first place."

Hearing this, Chen Jing couldn't help but look at the little girl Mona on the side, only to see that she was already sitting leisurely on the edge of the cave, dangling her feet freely, not afraid that she would accidentally fall from the nearly thousand-meter-high hole.

"Mona, were you there when the séance was activated in Elysium?"

"Over there."

Mona raised her hand and pointed to the city where everyone had come, and there was no fear on her face, for the old god who had destroyed everything...... There seems to be no fear, only a heartfelt gratitude.

"The Old Gods have ruined the city and killed those who have been oppressing us...... Mona is grateful to Him! ”

"It's also the cause of the city's mutations?" Chen Jing asked quietly.

"It's not."

Mona sighed and lowered her head to look at the cavern engulfed in darkness.

"It's something else...... They came after the arrival of the Old Gods...... And he ran out of the altar......"

With that, Mona looked up at everyone.

"Do you want to go down and have a look?"

"Where do you get it from?" Kui Nan squatted aside, frowned and said, "There is no ladder or anything in this place......

Mona didn't speak.

jumped directly from the entrance of the cave.

Seeing it, Kui Nan was stunned.

"Damn, is this little girl so brave?" Kui Nan said in a loud voice, then did a few warm-up exercises, turned over and jumped down with Mona, still muttering and complaining, "This is at least a thousand meters, that little girl is really not afraid of being thrown to death......"

Then, Qiao Youning and Yan Que also jumped down.

Until Chen Bofu was about to jump down, Chen Jing gently grabbed his arm.

"Grandpa."

"What?"

"How do I feel that you look at Mona strangely."

Chen Jing was a little puzzled.

Thinking of the old man's eyes when he looked at the little girl before, he felt that something was wrong no matter how he thought about it.

If it was just vigilance or vigilance, Chen Jing could understand it, but the old man's eyes obviously saw something strange......

Surprised, puzzled.

These can be found in the eyes of the elderly.

"It's not a big deal, I'll tell you later."

Chen Bofu smiled, dragged Chen Jing and jumped down from the entrance of the cave.

"I just didn't expect to see this creature in my lifetime......"
