Chapter 393: Market City(1/2)
Passing through the cracks, Xu Shen took Xing Jun and the original owner out of the Divine Soldier Tomb and returned to the Ruins Sea.
The place that came out was not the Crimson Gate at the bottom of the lake before, but a strange and desolate area. There were some chewed remains everywhere on the ground around it. They had rotted into gray and the bones were easily broken at the touch.
Xu Shen searched in Pamela's memory but could not find the memory of this area. Then he searched from the memories of other kings until he found the memory of this area in Mo Chengfeng's memory.
Although the memories Mo Chengfeng gave to Xia Tong were forged by him after conversion, they were mixed in truth and falsehood. Some of the memories about Xuhai did not have much value, so they were not hidden.
At this moment, several memories were pieced together, plus many fragments of the Xuhai map that had been searched for, and the common ground was quickly found.
Xu Shen immediately followed the route and headed to the Crimson Gate at the bottom of the lake again.
Along the way, we pass through strange and deserted places. The world here is like an oil painting, with mottled and bright colors, extremely abstract.
Encountering a beast on the way, Xu Shen left it to its original owner to deal with it.
Under their "original" abilities, these beasts are almost no match for their original owners.
As an A-level Great Ruins, it can even threaten other kings, but in front of the original owner, it is no different from the two states. It can be easily suppressed or killed, and even the number of people living in the group is meaningless.
As long as the ability can't threaten the original owner, no matter how much you do, it's just cutting melons and vegetables.
These Xu Shen also realized that Xu Shen and the original owner were not easy to mess with. When they both noticed each other, Da Xu immediately turned around and ran away.
Xu Shen knew that these ruins smelled the divine aura exuded by the demigod spiritual power on their bodies.
This kind of aura makes Daxu, who has lived in the sea of xu for a long time, fear from the bottom of his heart.
The three of them traveled together and traveled all the way, feeling a bit unruly in the sea of ruins.
Not long after, Xu Shen found the ruins forest again, walked into the depths, and saw the lake and the Crimson Gate after the battle.
Xu Shen breathed a sigh of relief. If he knew the route, he could go in again at any time next time.
This is probably the case for Master Zero, who has a map of the route to the Crimson Gate.
After confirming the route, Xu Shen took them back along the original route without staying any longer.
"Next time we can go together to explore the other two forbidden places in Xuxuhai." The original owner said to Xu Shen: "The Tomb of Divine Weapons only hides the magic weapons of the old gods, but the other two forbidden places, I heard
There are still old gods inhabiting them, and there are others that hide the secrets of becoming gods. Now that we have magic weapons in our hands, if we go to explore them, we have a great chance of survival."
"But the probability of death is greater."
Xu Shen glanced at the original owner: "Have you lived enough?"
"It's not enough to survive. When I get back to Yunzhong City, I'll finish what I have to do and want to give it a try."
The original owner said: "All the relatives and friends I am familiar with have died long ago. What is left are just enemies or people I don't like. They are all kings, and they are all monarchs. Time does not mean much to me. Days and days do not mean much to me."
It would be too boring to live day after day without finding any joy.”
Xu Shen glanced at him and understood the original owner's thoughts.
When there are no regrets, there is only boredom.
And becoming a king basically has the strength to make up for most regrets, and all desires can be satisfied.
Lust, greed, violence, etc., almost do whatever you want.
Especially at the level of a monarch, no one can restrain him. When a person can do whatever he wants, in addition to being extremely happy, he will also gradually feel bored.
"Okay, let's go try it when we're ready." Xu Shen promised the original owner.
The original owner smiled. In addition to being obsessed with becoming a god, he also wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of Xu Shen. After all, he was now tied to Xu Shen with the temple. If Xu Shen had any ill intentions, he could attack him at any time.
You can take his life away, or imprison him in a temple.
If he goes to other forbidden places, whether he dies or Xu Shen dies, he will be liberated.
Xu Shen knew what the original owner was thinking, but didn't care. He also wanted to become a god. If there was a way to become a god, he would try it no matter what. After all, only by becoming a god could he truly walk in the same world as Maeve.
Not long after, Xu Shen found the crack in the Ruins Sea that he and Xingjun had traveled through before.
Looking at this crack, Xu Shen's eyes shone slightly, and he immediately stepped in impatiently.
A strange sense of dissociation appeared, and the surrounding area was stretched into mottled colors. When Xu Shen came to his senses again, he saw the familiar sky and earth.
Back.
The long-lost sense of intimacy came over, and the smell accompanying every wisp of wind in the air made Xu Shen feel sweet.
He looked around thoughtfully, and soon his eyes settled on a place in the void, where a familiar figure stood quietly, seemingly lying on his side in mid-air, and he raised his eyes to look over.
The moment their eyes met, Xu Shen's heart could not help but beat faster, but this time he did not turn his eyes away. Two thousand years of waiting and longing made his reason suppressed at this moment.
There was a trace of surprise in Maeve's eyes, and she seemed to see something immediately. The corners of her mouth raised slightly, and she said softly: "It seems that you have found a way."
Xu Shen also laughed.
Seeing that Xu Shen didn't avoid her gaze, Maeve looked at Xu Shen with interest: "You seem to be a lot bolder."
"Finally back."
Next to him, the original owner spoke, with a bit of excitement and nostalgia in his voice. After more than three hundred years of blockade, now returning again, he felt an indescribable emotion.
Xu Shen withdrew his thoughts, and glanced at Maeve's figure gently, as if to imprint it in the depths of his mind, and then said to the original owner and Xingjun: "Let's go back to the city first."
"I also want to go back to Xingchou City. Why don't you wait for me to go back and take a look before looking for you?" Xingjun took the opportunity to say.
Xu Shen looked at him quietly and said, "Okay."
Xingjun looked at Xu Shen in surprise, but he didn't expect that Xu Shen actually agreed.
"I'll give you seven days to do your thing. Come to me in Guangming City after seven days." Xu Shen looked into Xingjun's eyes: "Don't let me down."
Xingjun felt a chill in his heart and nodded: "I will come."
After saying that, he said goodbye to Xu Shen and quickly turned around and left.
Xu Shen didn't look any further and took the original owner back to Guangming City.
From the high wall to the city lord's palace in Guangming District, Xu Shen saw a huge change in Guangming City in just two years. He actually became a little unfamiliar. Many blocks along the way were empty and cordoned off.
There are also many once-bustling neighborhoods and business districts that are as dead as hell. Some buildings have collapsed but have not been repaired.
Xu Shen frowned. Di City, which was not prosperous before, now looks even worse, like a city where refugees have died.
Soon, Xu Shen arrived at the city lord's mansion.
Then I saw that the place was heavily guarded. In the meeting hall, Nasephani was wearing wrinkled clothes and was reading a brochure. Her hair was a little messy. From time to time, she was seen scratching her head and frowning.
Xu Shen didn't peek too much and appeared directly from the fourth level of the ruins.
"What happened?" Xu Shen asked.
Nasefani woke up from a dream. When she looked up, she saw Xu Shen appearing in front of her out of thin air. If Xu Shen hadn't spoken, she wouldn't have even noticed that there was another person in front of her.
"City Lord, you, you are finally back!"
Astonished, Nasephani's face suddenly showed surprise, and she quickly said: "Great, there are rumors outside that something happened to you, and we thought you would never come back."
"A civil war broke out?" Xu Shen's eyes flashed.
Nasephani said: "City Lord, have you also seen the situation in the city? It's not a civil war, it's a ruin!"
There was a bit of hatred and depression in her eyes, and she said: "Not long after you left, many A-level giant beasts appeared in the city one after another. These giant beasts preyed everywhere and ate people. Thanks to the intervention of King Xue Haining, some of them were saved. The loss was so great that she could barely suppress the scene, but she was unable to do anything on her own. She was chased by a big bull before and was seriously injured. Fortunately, your Baima Xu took action and helped drive away the bull."
Xu Shen was stunned. Xue Haining's ability was not weak. He was in the middle and upper class among the kings, but he was actually being chased by Daxu.
That must be something that an extremely powerful Daxu can do.
"Where are the two Han family members?" Xu Shen asked.
"They are also dealing with the Big Ruins, but there are too many of them. In the first year after you disappeared, City Lord, seven or eight Big Ruins appeared. In the second year, there were dozens of them, everywhere in the city. Even though they have them, they are too busy."
Nasephani said: "They were all injured. King Han Lie almost died, and then he didn't dare to act alone again."
Xu Shen was stunned, dozens?
This is an A-level ruins. How many outbreaks occurred in just one year?
The entire bottom city is so big, and if dozens of large bastards divide their territory, it would be enough to fill the whole city.
No wonder we saw so many places with blockades along the way.
"What now?"
Xu Shen asked: "Are there any in the city now?"
"Of course there is. King Xue Haining and the two kings of the Han family are patrolling Outer Manchuria. Your Baima Xu is sitting at the headquarters. There is also the Xu who you left behind to guard the library. There was a big Xu who wanted to attack here before. , they were the ones who took action to repel it." Nasephani said.
Xu Shen's eyes moved slightly. The people in the library were quite cooperative and did not disappoint him.
"In addition to these bad news, we also have two good news." Nasephani looked at Xu Shen, her expression changed, and she said with a smile: "General Chen has also become a king. Besides him, there is another The Ertai named Xia Jingxiang was a person who followed you and became a king."
Xu Shen was surprised that the two of them actually became kings?
However, this can also explain how serious the situation in Guangming City was during this period. New
Most of them have encountered the ultimate limit of life and death.
"What about the others? Did any of them die?" Xu Shen asked with a serious face.
Nasephani glanced at Xu Shen, nodded, and said: "Some of the two states who followed you have died. There are many lists, and I have written them all down."
