A blood moon hangs high in the sky.

Mottled buildings that have been eroded by wind and rain for many years crowd the streets, and the wreckage of buildings with empty shells is everywhere, interspersed with towering towers, clad in iron sheets, and topped with what looks like artillery.

There were no lights, no sounds, and no hustle and bustle that should have belonged to a human settlement.

Whether it was a natural or man-made disaster, the city had been abandoned for too long, and darkness and silence filled every corner.

In the hazy gray mist, a series of footsteps suddenly sounded, and Gorman, dressed in a gray-black hunting trench coat, carried a giant scythe, stepped on a long broken brick mixed with black-brown mud between the cracks, walked in the middle of the street, his eyes wandered between the surrounding scenes, and finally stopped on a lamppost on the side of the street.

There were three scratches there, which he had carved not long ago to prevent himself from getting lost!

The ubiquitous gray fog in the city, combined with the extremely unfamiliar street environment for Gorman, inevitably had a great impact on his actions.

And there was much more to him than that, in fact, since he had entered the city a few hours earlier, he had a vague sense that this was not his destination or just the periphery of his destination, and that there was still an unbreakable boundary between him and the place he really wanted to go.

"They enter the lost world through communication with their own bloodline, desperate to find a skeleton hidden somewhere or just a remnant of consciousness, all so broken and yet implying a pattern...... Father, I'm already here, but where is the scene in your notes?"

Rubbing the marks on the lamppost, Gorman muttered to himself with half-squinted eyes, recalling his final battle with the old priest in the cathedral and what had been recorded in the notebook that had been taken as a "trophy".

Yes, that's what the old priest left to Gorman.

As he said, he was going to lead Gorman on the right path, even if it cost him his own life!

Click~click~

The sound of rolling stones was heard in the darkness ahead, and Gorman frowned, clenching the scythe in his hand vigilantly.

"Gorman, is that you?"

A slightly familiar voice sounded in the direction of the footsteps, and when he saw the two figures rushing out of the gray mist, Gorman's eyes subconsciously widened.

It's Lu Jing and Xu Chu!

"How did you end up here...... Have you seen Kim Ki-dong?"

It was the only possibility Gorman could think of for the two of them to be here.

"Of course, if it weren't for him, Xu Chu and I wouldn't have been able to come to this world, but we couldn't stay too long, but fortunately, it didn't take much time to find you. ”

In between speaking, Lu Jing couldn't help but look at the surrounding environment, from just coming into this world to the present, he and Xu Chu have run for about two blocks, and they have seen a lot of things by the moonlight.

"It's not like a city in the Shuoming Dynasty, it's a far cry from Anling Island, and I've seen a lot of mechanical buildings along the way, even high-end cars, but the buildings around me seem to have passed hundreds of thousands of years...... The Lost World is truly extraordinary. ”

"This world should only be accessible to people whose bloodline can echo it, how did Jin Qidong let you in?"

When the three of them came together, Gorman couldn't help but ask.

You must know that he spent a lot of energy in order to enter this world, and even did not hesitate to make quite risky moves.

"Because you haven't found the real passage at all, your consciousness is just wandering in the shallow world, and Jin Qidong has a kind of medicine in his hand that can make people come for a short time...... Now is not the time to say this, he has been watching your consciousness change from outside, and your current state is equivalent to descending into the real world as a spirit, and the place you are really going is actually hidden in the city. ”

Lu Jing and Xu Chu both decided to come in in to help in a hurry, so naturally they didn't have so much time to listen to Jin Qidong explain the ins and outs of the matter, and to some extent, they actually played the role of tool people.

"Activate the blood in your body and repeat your previous actions again in this world, this is Jin Qidong's advice to you, and the purpose of our entry is to relay this message to you, and then help you enter. ”

"You ......"

Gorman looked at the two people in front of him, whose figures had begun to blur compared to when they first met, and stopped talking.

He knew that entering this lost world would bring great stress to the individual's spirit, and the slightest carelessness would cause mental damage!

"Although I don't know your situation, I know that what you want to do should be a good thing, that's enough, ten gold leaves for a wonderful trip, I still think it's earned, that's all, the rest of the words will be said after these things are done." ”

He raised his hand and patted Gorman's shoulder, and as he spoke, he motioned for Xu Chu to take two steps back with him to make way for him.

Lu Jing has never been a nosy person, but since the other party is his reserve crew, it is another way to put it.

As a captain, he would never sit idly by and watch his crew put themselves in danger.

This is the most basic responsibility of a captain!

Now is not the time to talk about the past, Gorman also knows this, watching the two of them nod heavily, he quickly sat down cross-legged, placed the giant scythe beside him, closed his eyes and began to try to get into the state.

It didn't take long for Lu Jing to notice that the blood vessels on Gorman's body gradually became prominent, and the whole person seemed to fall into a special state, covered with a layer of colorful fluorescence, as if it would disappear in place in the next second.

At the same time, Lu Jing keenly sensed that the speed of the surrounding fog was accelerating, as if he was responding to the situation here.

"Xu, pay attention to the fog around you, if you hear any sound......"

Before Lu Jing's words were finished, a large sound of masonry colliding suddenly sounded around the street, and his body subconsciously tensed, putting on a fighting posture and protecting Gorman behind him.

I saw a large number of scarlet threads suddenly appearing in the gray mist, which were only scattered in all directions at first, but as time passed, Lu Jing began to see some vague black shadows in the mist.

"Captain, behind that wall on the left!"

Xu Qi's voice came, and Lu Jing immediately turned his head and looked in the direction of his finger.

Behind the fence on one side of the street, a humanoid monster made of masonry and silk threads was staggering to its feet, and near it, a dozen bricks and stones were being strung together by scarlet threads to form the body of another monster.

Lu Jing couldn't see anything that could be called facial features on the clump of broken bricks that it might call a head, there was no doubt that they were not life, but puppets controlled by these scarlet threads, but even so, the goal of these monsters was extremely clear.

First it smashed through the wall in front of it with a punch, and then silk threads poured out from all around it, pulling the masonry onto the stone monster's body, thus strengthening its body, and in the process, more stone monsters appeared in the surrounding buildings, almost all the time close to Gorman's location.

They, or those scarlet threads, wouldn't allow Gorman to break through that barrier!

It seems that this is the risk that Jin Qidong is talking about. ”

Lu Jing looked at these monsters that were obviously beyond common sense, muttered, raised his hand and pointed his sword, planning to use the torrent to try the strength of these monsters first, but not to mention the spiral flow, not even a drop of water appeared, Lu Jing, who noticed this situation, immediately sank, and said in a muffled voice,

"Oh no, this world is different from the dreams we've experienced before...... Trouble!"

The masonry monsters would not stop attacking because Lu Jing was unable to condense the flow of water, unlike the sluggishness when they were first created, the speed of these monsters was constantly accelerating, and the nearest one was already a few meters away!
