Chapter 435: The City

Qin Wen and his party took the spirit boat back to the teleportation array on the border of the country of the blades, and arrived at the first teleportation site in the desert through the teleportation array twice, and when Qin Wen walked out of the teleportation array, a violent hurricane was passing through the sky above the teleportation array.

The sky that was still clear just now suddenly became dark, and a huge sand dune seemed to be pulled by a giant through Qin Wen's eyes, and the monks behind Qin Wen were also stunned by this spectacular scene, looking at the changes in the scenery in front of him like a sea of vicissitudes, Qin Wen felt that time here suddenly became much faster, and all the things that were originally just slowly happened completely changed in an instant.

However, although the hurricane was in full swing outside, Qin Wen couldn't feel the slightest wind at the location of the teleportation array mountain pass where they were standing, and even the sand under his feet didn't move in the slightest, Qin Wen turned around and asked Sun Dadao at this time, "How many safe places are near this teleportation array?"

Sun Da thought for a while and said: "Hurricanes like this are very common here, the few times I have walked, I can basically encounter them every day, the relatively safe place is less than half a mile away near the teleportation array, the mountain pass in front is the boundary, once out of the mountain pass, even a spirit level monk can't resist such a powerful hurricane." ”

Qin Wen looked at the mountain pass that was only thirty or fifty zhang away from him, these dozens of zhang should be the distance between life and death, and he could find this absolutely safe place in the desert where hurricanes continue to blow all year round, it seems that Sun Da said that the Huang family died dozens of monks in order to find this trade route is definitely not an exaggeration.

Even Qin Wen felt that he could find this place with dozens of monks, Huang Wuye was really a little lucky, Qin Wen waited until Zhao Wu led the next wave of monks to come here through the teleportation array, then turned around and entered another fixed teleportation array, the Huang family's teleportation array is all fixed teleportation, because this safety factor will be higher.

When you come out of the teleportation array again. It was found that it was in a cave, it seemed that Huang Wuye wanted the teleportation array not to be noticed, and the teleportation array set up in the place where the monks often passed by was in the cave, Qin Wen asked Sun Dadao at this time: "Is there a monk guarding here?"

Sun Da shook his head and said, "I also asked Xue Lin when I came just now, and he said that this time he only brought a monk who was guarding the teleportation array and came out of this cave. Not long away is Twin Star City, the terrain here is more complicated, and there are usually few monks passing by, so the teleportation array does not need to be guarded by monks here. ”

After Qin Wen and Sun Da walked out of the teleportation array, they saw that this teleportation array was actually set up on a cliff that walked out of the cave, and indeed ordinary monks would not fly up here to check, it seemed that the monks who set up the teleportation array in the Huangfu did everything to conceal the teleportation array.

When Zhao Wu walked out of the teleportation array with the magic circle monks, Qin Wen flew out of the cave on the cliff with these monks. When I came to the top of the hill and looked down at the mountain, a majestic city was dozens of miles down the mountain, surrounded by mountains and rivers, dotted with nearby villages and fields, and there were soldiers patrolling back and forth on the city walls.

In the distance, the city is surrounded by a desert that stretches as far as the eye can see, and the whole city is surrounded by a valley. Extremely like a large oasis, Zhao Wu looked at the quaint city wall at this time. I couldn't help but exclaim: "The setting of this city wall is a powerful formation, basically there is no need for soldiers to defend the city, as long as there is a powerful array disk, and enough aura to drive the array disk, even if there are thousands, or even tens of thousands of spirit level cultivators attacking." It can also easily defend and kill them in an instant. ”

Qin Wen didn't expect Zhao Wu to comment on the walls of Double Star City like this, he didn't have a deep understanding of the formation, so he opened his mouth and asked Zhao Wudao: "In this desert, even the spirit level cultivators can't enter around. What are you doing with setting up such a powerful defensive formation? Every time this formation is operated, the spar consumed should be calculated in tens of thousands of catties, which is really a bit overkill. ”

Fang Li next to him spoke at this time: "Master Qin, I heard Han Shang talk about the history of Twin Star City two days ago, he said that the construction of Twin Star City should have been when the demon clan invaded the Expulsion City, at that time this side was still an endless grassland, after the demon clan entered the Expulsion City, they invaded to the south and west at the same time, because the south invested more troops, so the attack has been relatively smooth. ”

"And the west side is stopped on the side of the Twin Star City, at that time the Twin Star City was not as large as it is now, the legend is that there is a holy monk who practiced here, he is proficient in formation, just before the arrival of the demon army, took in many local herdsmen to build the current city. ”

Listening to Fang Li's words, Zhao Wu couldn't help but be amazed: "No wonder I see that this Twin Star City formation is so strong and rigorous, it turned out to be built by a Saint-level Formation Monk, and it is estimated that only a Saint-rank Monk can manipulate this formation with his divine sense at will, like a Spirit-level monk has to use the array to complete it." ”

Fang Li nodded at this time and continued: "Han Shang said at that time that after the demon army came to Double Star City, because the defense of this formation was very rigorous and the attack was particularly sharp, after losing a lot of holy demons and spirit demons, it was not able to break through this city. ”

"In the end, the demon army was forced to abandon the city and continue to march westward, but the city lord of Twin Star City at that time did not stick to a city, but sent the monks in his own city to constantly harass the demon army in the rear, which made the demon army that had been stationed in the country of He Blade suffer deeply, and also slowed down the speed of the demon attack to the west. ”

Qin Wen couldn't help but ask at this time, "Then did the army of the Demon Clan occupy the Western Continent at that time, and how did the Twin Star City become a lonely city in the desert?"

Fang Li thought for a moment and said: "The army of the demon clan did not occupy the entire continent, it should have captured almost half of the continent at that time, and after hearing that the war in the south was a little tight, he sent a large number of troops to the south, leaving only a small part to manage these occupied countries. ”

"After the monks of the demon clan occupied these countries, they began to collect underground mineral deposits on a large scale, some of them absorbed the essence blood of the monks to improve their cultivation, and some of them absorbed the aura of the elixir of the trees to improve the monks, and gradually the demons ruled the vicinity of these areas, and there were no people, and a large area of land was deserted, coupled with the wanton destruction of these demon cultivators on it, so this neighborhood gradually became a desert. ”

Qin Wen listened to what Fang Li said at this time, and slowly walked down the mountain road, Fang Li also followed closely behind him and continued: "What Commander Zhao said just now is right, the defense of this city is very strong, after the defeat of the demon clan, a large area of desert has appeared in this vicinity, and the old city lord of the Holy Rank Monk has also disappeared at this time, I don't know if Lu Dao has fallen, or if he has ascended to heaven, anyway, he passed the position of city lord to his son. ”

"After the new city lord ascended the throne, his realm was far inferior to his father, so the gap in the use of the city formation was too big, originally under the support of this formation, it should be within a radius of five hundred miles and still maintain the scene of the pastoral area, but after the defeat of the demon clan, the desert gradually surrounded here. ”

Qin Wen checked the distance between the two nearby mountains and the city, and estimated that it was now at most fifty miles from the edge of the desert, Qin Wen couldn't help but speak: "Then according to what Han Shang said now, if this formation continues to be abandoned like this, it is estimated that in a few hundred years, maybe the desert will be assimilated along with the city." ”

Fang Li shook his head and said: "I can't say this, but the desert wind and sand near here are too much smaller than the outside, just like we are on this mountain, we can't feel the attack of the storm at all, and it is estimated that it has a lot to do with the magic circle of this city." ”

"At that time, due to the existence of the old city lord, it was equivalent to planting a nail on the way to the west of the demon race, and there were many soldiers and civilians from Western countries who fled the fate of the demon slaughter for this, so these countries have great respect for the old city lord, they don't know the name of the old city lord, but the old city lord often wears a long shirt with two stars on the cuffs, so they call this place a double star city. ”

Qin Wen bowed slightly, it turned out that the origin of the name Twin Star City came from here, judging from the situation of the city array, the current Twin Star City is already declining, except for the one-way ancient teleportation array that Qin Wen just knew, it is estimated that they are more closed here than the Expulsion City.

There are still many monks who flee to take refuge there every year in the Expulsion City, although most of the spiritual objects carried by these monks are not much, but they also inject a lot of fresh blood into the circulation of goods in the Expulsion City, and there are also families like Fang Fu who have caravans, they can also enter Daqi every time they pass through the mountains and deserts to buy some spiritual objects and transport them back to the Expulsion City.

And this Twin Star City, the north and south are endless deserts, and the east-west traffic is also cut off, except for the teleportation array, Qin Wen has not received the information that the monks of the Twin Star City can walk out of the city in everyone's mouth, Qin Wen thought at this time, he led this group of monks, all of whom have never appeared in the Twin Star City, and have lived in the closed city for so many years, it is estimated that any one of the monks in the Twin Star City can recognize all the residents in their city.

And his team of monks is a little too conspicuous, plus Huang Wuye signed an agreement with a steward of the City Lord's Mansion, they are also considered partners, in case anyone notices him, it will be troublesome, thinking of this, Qin Wen said to Zhao Wu: "I think there are too many of us, and it is too eye-catching to enter this city, it is better to take Fang Li and Sun Da first, you will wait near this mountain forest for the time being, and wait for me to investigate the situation before making a decision."
