Chapter 56: City of Soldiers
"Big brother, it's so strange here, people are so depressed."
Little Lori was immediately infected by the weird, twisted atmosphere after entering the City of Wealth, her heart fluctuating so much with emotions that she tightly grasped my arm.
And although I didn't have Little Lori's emotional changes, I was also depressed by the scene and atmosphere here, this is simply a world that has been played out, all twisted.
If a person often stays here, it is estimated that in less than three to five days, the whole person will be changed by the various distorted factors here, become greedy, indulgent, rotten, completely lose themselves, become slaves of money.
And it's not unreasonable that all those black-clothed people were all killed by a meatball, in such an environment of infection, that meatball doesn't even need to be too confused, just need a guide, those black-clothed people will be completely lost, and finally die in their own greed.
I said, "Don't look at these statues, these abstract things can easily affect our thinking. Now let's keep looking along the footprints of the black-clothed men and see where they ended up."
I reminded Lori of this, and then led him to continue his exploration along the footprints of the men in black.
The entire City of Wealth was very large and corrupt, it was filled with casinos, brothels, restaurants and other places of consumption, there was almost no place that wasn't related to money, while Little Lori and I followed the footprints of the men in black and passed through all these vile establishments, we eventually came to a large hall.
This hall is seven or eight meters high, brilliant, carved railings, surrounded by carvings full of gold and silver treasures, rare and exotic patterns, giving people an extremely luxurious feeling.
At the moment I and little Lori in a glance at the appearance of the hall after walking in, found that the hall in a very messy, gold coins, jewelry spilled all over the place, there are some loaded with treasure sacks on the ground, a look know that this is the place where those in black carry the gold coins. However, at this moment, there is not half of the black-clothed people here, think they are all killed by the meatball.
"Big brother, it seems that those black-clothed men who were carrying the gold coins are all dead. What else do we do now?"
Little Lori asked me after looking at the scene, while I said after thinking about it, "Let's go somewhere else to have a look, now we can be sure that Team Zhang and the others should still be alive, because there is no corpse of Team Zhang and the others here either, so let's go to somewhere else to look, and see if we can find some traces of Team Zhang and the others."
"Oh, big brother I'll listen to you."
Saying that, Little Lori and I didn't stay here in Cai Cheng, we left along the back gate of Cai Cheng, this time we didn't go blindly, although those who carried the gold coins were dead, the main force that hijacked Zhang Team and their army was still alive, and also took Zhang Team and their continued deeper into the tomb of Yue Clan's Yu Wang.
So this time, Lori and I were still following the footprints of those people, and when we had walked for more than half an hour again, another ghost city appeared in front of our eyes.
This ghost city is almost completely different from the city of wealth, the architectural style is very special, how to say it, the building of the city of wealth is the kind of corruption, rotten, paper drunken feeling. And this ghost city is a kind of, jingo iron horse, killing and conquering flavor, as is an out-of-body sword in general, giving people an extremely dangerous feeling.
"Big brother, this city is so fierce ah, inside will there be zombies ah!"
Little Lori looked at that big city filled with killing aura and immediately shrunk her head. And I am facing that big city at the moment, also has a kind of extremely strong uneasiness.
To say that the City of Wealth is a city that corrupts one's mind, capable of changing one's worldview. Then this city is the city of soldiers, really full of dangerous atmosphere, as if there are hundreds of millions of evil ghosts inside, countless zombie army general, let a person's heart out of thin air will have a sense of fear.
"Do not be afraid. Even if there are dangers those black-clothed people have explored the way for us first, let's be careful is."
I comforted Lori, and at the same time also took out my pistol and grenade, then I led Lori cautiously towards the gate of the Soldier City.
This soldier city's gate is open, inside is dark and gloomy, but we still saw some sights with the flashlight, within this city is really as we guessed, it is a soldier city, inside there are a large number of soldiers, carts, horses, huge bows and crossbows and other statues, the seriousness of the atmosphere is chilling in the heart.
In addition to these, we also in this big city near the entrance to the city opened to a lot of corpses, these corpses are black, some are still wearing archaeological clothing, the death is very miserable, obviously is the hijacking of the Zhang team's group of people and the Zhang team they encountered in the entrance to the city of the danger, so that will be dead here so many people.
But this group of people actually encountered what danger I can not see, these people's death suit are very violent, some head burst, some stomach through, some people even the whole body has become a bloody mess, but in this group of people around, you are not see any weapons, or other things of the body, but it is very difficult to judge these people at that time encountered what the situation.
"Be careful, this place is a bit strange, let's find a rock to throw in and see."
I didn't dare to be righteous at that time, I didn't dare to go in directly when I saw that there were dead people, but I learned a little bit of the ancient people throwing stones, picked up a stone, and threw it into the city gate.
And at this moment strange things happened, when I just threw the stone in my hand into the city gate, I felt that the soldiers in the city, a huge crossbow on top of a piercing sound of the air, followed by I watched, I just threw in the stone on the boom burst, burst out of thin air, without warning.
This is to make me and the little loli show Lu Ning are a stunned, at the same time cold sweat also instantly penetrated our whole body, fortunately did not directly break into, otherwise it is estimated to burst is the two of us body, is really a line of life and death!
"Big brother, what's going on ah, is it haunted, people are so scared."
Little Lori looked at the stone that broke into several halves, then tensed up, and I also have a dry mouth, in the face of such a bizarre scene, who can not be afraid?
But I'm sure this shouldn't be haunted, if ghosts were this powerful, then this world would have long since stopped being a human world and belonged to ghosts. That's why I know that the weird phenomenon in the middle of this Soldier City should have another reason.
"It shouldn't be haunted. Now I'm going to throw another stone, so help me look carefully at the row of stone bows in the left position and see what has changed."
I said, then had picked up a stone on the ground and threw it in, then with a loud boom, that stone burst again, while at this moment Lori was exclaiming.
"I saw it, it seems like air was shot out of those stone crossbows and hit the stone!"
Little Lori said with a little excitement, and I nodded at that, just now when I was asking Little Lori to observe, I was also observing those stone crossbows, I was afraid of seeing it wrong. And at this moment as soon as Lori said it I knew that I hadn't misread it.
It was that an extremely sharp air shot out from that stone crossbow carriage, breaking the stone that I threw out!
This is what made me know that those crossbows are definitely a kind of machine, just like what Cheng said, this is a kind of technology that we don't know, just like that big stone turtle we saw at the beginning, it is able to change the supernatural phenomena and control the wind, thunder, rain and electricity.
And now these bows should be using the wind as an energy source, a kind of attack that has been compressed, to put it more plainly, it is an air cannon.
"Big brother, these crossbows are so powerful, there are so many of them inside, how do we go in ah."
Lori continued, while I sniffed but frowned, I said, "How to get in, this must have a way, otherwise Zhang team and their group should all die here, but here only a few people's bodies, so the inference should be that these people thought of some way to pass through this soldier city. Now you let me think about it."
I said and stopped talking, then started to carefully observe everything inside this Soldier City.
The entire Soldier City was almost horizontally cutting off our way, so if we wanted to cross the Soldier City to go to the place behind us, then we had to go through the Soldier City to do so.
But there are three ways to cross the city of soldiers.
The first way is to fly from the sky, of course, this can be directly rejected, after all, we do not have that ability. And even if we do, I guess those bows will shoot us down, because those stones I threw out are the ones that burst in mid-air. So this way won't work.
The second way is to dig a tunnel to get there, this is a little more reliable, but obviously not, when Lori and I dig through the tunnel, I guess my hair will be gray. So this method also does not work.
And the last method is to go in directly from the city gates and cross the Bing City. This method was the most practical, but the result was also very simple, I estimated that Lori and I wouldn't be able to walk more than five meters before we would be shot through the gut just like those men in black.
"How exactly did the group that hijacked Team Zhang and the others get in there ……"
I constantly think in my mind, and the little loli look I do not talk to her, it is bored to sit on the ground, pick up a small stone thrown toward the city gate, suddenly as a firecracker general, into the door within the splitting a burst of sound.
I am a burst of annoyance, meditative thinking know not, meditative, I think in my mind to say a few words of lori, but at this moment, in I just want to condemn a few words of lori, my eyes were suddenly lori thrown out of a handful of small stones to attract.
Little Lori was probably also mindlessly still, in order to pass the time, so the direction of throwing was not fixed, and the number of stones varied, and among the large handful of stones she just threw out, there was one that was safe, that's right, it was safe.
That scattered a large stone, ninety-nine point nine percent have been shattered, only one by the east side of the stone was not shattered, but safe right on the ground.
This is to make my eyes immediately light up, it seems that this soldier city is not unable to enter the inch, in some places can also go unharmed, will not trigger the air cannon.
As soon as I thought of this, I was immediately excited, if with this approach, Lori and I have been casting stones to ask for directions, not to find the correct route to walk through?
