Chapter 82: The Misty City and the Dead Regiment

All the stone statues are looking at me......

Chen Qi swallowed a mouthful of water, and had to admit that there was a little bit of horror.

[As you get the Void Fall on Lady Mist, you see a book.] 】

[Some flames appear in the book in the hands of the stone statue of the Lady of the Mist, and use the picture in the fire to tell you the story of the Misty City. 】

In the midst of the fire, you see a once prosperous city, full of adventurers and merchants.

Once upon a time, this was not a place of light, but the edge of the 8th district of the new capital.

Human beings will never be able to overcome calamity, and this land will eventually be destroyed by calamity, which is the common knowledge of every Xindu person.

Only by relying on the white sun and the sound of bells in the sky can we barely maintain order in the new capital.

Xindu is a cruel place, and even to maintain the population, you can only rely on the huge tree machine in Xindu District 1.

The world will eventually perish, but it is believed that there is still a way of salvation in this land.

Among the many ancient books, there are many places called "High Heaven".

It is another world, it is the land of ideals, it is the land of bliss, it is the land of eternal life, as long as you can reach that high heaven, you can be free from the invasion of calamity forever!

And an old book in the 8th district of the new capital records that the entrance to one of the high heavens is just outside the new capital.

At the end of that lightless land, there is an entrance to the heavens! 】

High Heaven ......

Ideal place.

In many mythological stories, there are these places.

He didn't really believe in the existence of these places.

However, in the New Sun World, these places may not really exist.

[Lady Mist continues to tell her story.]

Her father, the Lord of the Misty City, was a man who was skeptical of the legend.

For the treasures and powers of the Lightless Lands, his father befriended a group of people and continued to venture beyond the Lightless Lands.

They are enemies of calamity, they are hungry for treasure and power, and they are going to the land of no light!

Almost everyone didn't think his father and his teammates would survive the Lightless Lands.

They will die very quickly......

Therefore, they are also called "dead regiments". 】

Dead Regiment......

Chenqi exhaled.

It wasn't the first time he'd seen the name, that Vigel was one of the members of the Dead Regiment!

Is there any connection between this matter and the dead group......

Chen Qi continued to read.

In countless adventures, they have gained far more power than mortals in the Lightless Land, they have mastered the power of calamity, and they are invincible.

Even the Heartless Monster Prisoner Hunters created by Black River Prison are no match for them! 】

[And Misty City is the residence and resting place of the Dead Regiment, and countless adventurers have passed the test in Misty City and become a member of the Dead Regiment.

According to his father, during a trip with the Dead Regiment, his father reached the edge of the heavens, where they survived the apocalyptic calamity and made it back! 】

[The returning dead group has mastered that powerful force, they are invincible, no one can match, even the prisoner hunters of Heihe Prison cannot stop them.

However, as the flames of the White Sun weakened, the Misty City gradually became part of the "Land of Light".

To solve this problem, her father and the members of the Dead Regiment set out on a journey once again into the unknown world to find the power that could shelter Misty City.

Because of the first trip to the edge of heaven that surpasses everyone's common sense.

Many people believe they can find the fuel to make the sun burn again, and the young woman is no exception. 】

[This time, however......

They did not find the heavens, and 90% of the members of the dead group were all buried in the unknown calamity of the Lightless Land, and only a very small number of them returned.

And her father, the Lord of Misty City, a member of the Dead Band, is one of the few surviving members. 】

[They were defeated, and all the members of the dead group lost hope, became devastated and even contaminated with the aura of calamity, and many people completely abandoned their goals. 】

[The dead group was completely disbanded, and they went their separate ways to ......]

[Her father, as the lord of the Misty City, was reeling in the defeat of the Dead Regiment, losing his fighting spirit, and his illness from fighting the calamity became more and more serious.

She could feel her father's weakness and emaciation.

He didn't care about it, and he didn't believe that he could reach that far away high heaven.

In the end, before he died, he pinned all his hopes on the future of the Lamp Seeker, set up a treasure trial in the middle of the city, and finally died. 】

[At the very moment when his father died, calamity struck.

The fire of the day suddenly weakened! The entire Misty City was instantly shrouded in darkness, and a terrifying calamity rushed towards the Misty City!

There are too many people who haven't had time to escape from this city......]

[It was a great fog, a black dot floating in the sky, eroding the city.

Those in the mist, even the slightest bit of confusion, will be eroded by the calamity, and then die, turning into a stone statue with only a trace of will, and becoming a bridge between the beast of the mist and other powers. 】

[Shortly after the horrific calamity appeared, his father's friend, one of the members of the Dead Regiment, killed the calamity, but was also seriously wounded and left the area. 】

[In this way, the once prosperous Misty City was destroyed......]

[As one of the few survivors of Misty City, despite the destruction here, this is still her hometown.

She did not want to leave her homeland, and lived in this lonely city of mist, where tombstones were built for the victims of the calamity, day after day, year after year......

At the same time, she inherited her father's last wish, and as an examiner, she hoped that someone would pass her father's trial, and told the many treasure hunters who came here about it. 】

[However, those treasure hunters don't seem to spread the news, but instead create some rumors that make everyone scared to come to Misty City.]

Many treasure hunters came here, but they all failed. 】

Morning dawn pondered for a moment.

These texts are consistent with his current information, and according to the plan of the puppeteer, the Misty City has indeed been destroyed.

In this way, she has been guarding this lonely city, waiting for someone to break through her father's trial. 】

[However, as she lives in the Misty City, she is surprised to discover:

The terrifying calamity that destroyed the Misty City did not die, but relied on those stone statues as a medium to continuously absorb the power of the Void! 】

[That calamity has accumulated enough power of the void phase, and has formed a powerful resurrection force!] 】

[When she found out about this, her body was also catastrophicized, and parts of her body turned into stone statues, and many grave keepers were petrified. 】

[Lady Mist knows that the last treasure that her father, a descendant of the builders of Misty City, guarded during his trials possesses the power to light the tower's lanterns, and that power is enough to banish the calamity of the void. 】

[For this reason, she also tried to pass her father's trial, but in the end failed, and at the last level of the trial, she understood that it was a power that only the lantern could inherit. 】

[If you don't let all these stone statues disappear, then these stone statues may eventually become a bridge to calamity, and then cause even more terrifying calamity! 】

[She could feel that the statues were dead, and that their lifelike appearance was nothing more than a trick of calamity to tease them, so that they would not want to destroy the stone statues.] 】

[She can't see anyone who can inherit her father's treasure......]

[Before she died, she used the pages of the book to engrave it on the tombstone, and commissioned a treasure hunter in the hope that he would spread the word.]

She hoped that the Lantern Traveler would light the brightest torch in the tower, dispel the calamity within, and end the story of the Misty City. 】

[Before she dies, she collects some items from the trial.] 】

Chen Qi sighed in his heart and looked at these texts.

According to the text, the Misty City was eventually invaded by the calamity and died, but the existence of these stone statues may breed even larger monsters.

And the lord of the Misty City of the Dead Regiment has set up a final trial, and as long as he passes the trial, he can obtain the precious treasure in it!

This is the treasure of an explorer of the Lightless Lands, and it must be incomparably precious.

Morning Dawn looked at the text.

[Lady Mist finishes this story, and uses the faint voice of the remnants to convey her last words.] 】

[Traveler from afar, if you desire the treasure of the trial, try to pass the trial, obtain the unfinished ember, and light the beacon of the tower......]

[If you are afraid, she also hopes that you can pass this on to the Scourge Courier, to the Treasure Hunter, and to the Black River Prison, so that they can put an end to the story of this Misty City......]

[This calamity has been resurrected, and it cannot be allowed to continue to grow. 】

[May you fulfill her last request.] 】

[After Lady Mist finished telling the story, the light in her hand gradually went out, and the stone statue began to shatter and dissipate into dust. 】

[You have reached the Special Mission: Treasure Trial of the Lord of the Misty City.] 】

"Look at the coffin, there's something left in it.] 】

[Do you want to take it?] 】

Be.

You have obtained the Epitaph Page.

You get a piece of frozen fish wrapped in paper.

You have been given a rusty dueling saber.

You have been given a Lamp of Shelter. 】
